One-three-four. Cool nights
The night, the cool and the dreamy dreams of the whole night are like fragments. The whole body was as hot as charcoal, and the sweat was dripping, as if the tears that were held in the heart of the embankment, endlessly. covered with a whole body, and the heart was cold. Qin Nanxi couldn't afford to be sick, or rather, her tired soul could no longer hold the cold autumn coolness and people's hearts. It would rather shrink at the bottom of the dream, nostalgic for the pear fragrance snow sea of Cuiwei Mountain, and indulge in the glass world of Yunze.
Her heavy eyelids couldn't struggle, and the remaining trace of her mind struggled to distinguish the whispers in her ears, but it seemed that only the voices of Assuf and Liu Qi were there.
In a daze, I felt that my mouth was full of bitterness, the warm medicinal juice rolled down my dry tongue, the intense bitterness was reprimanded by the scorched throat, and I choked on it, and Qin Nanxi was pulled back to the reality that she didn't want to face but had to face.
"Are you awake?" Liu Qi's voice came faintly, he sat on the edge of the couch, saw her wake up, turned around gently, and took a cushion from behind her to cushion her. He is a doctor and knows that Qin Nanxi's disease is rooted in his heart.
Slightly hanging his drowsy head, Qin Nanxi tried to get up and bend over, wanting to thank him.
Liu Qi raised his hand to stop her, lowered his head and scooped a spoonful of thick black medicinal juice, brought it to her mouth, and said softly: "That's it, at this time, you are still so far away!" Just wake up and drink the medicine. ”
Qin Nanxi nodded, obediently probed her lips, sipped out the medicinal juice in the spoon, and her brows couldn't help frowning.
Liu Qi shook his head slightly, looking at her with a smile of slight pain: "It's so big, I'm still afraid of taking medicine." But before the words fell, his hand holding the spoon trembled suddenly, and half a spoonful of medicinal juice was splashed on the tuanhua brocade quilt on the couch.
Qin Nanxi kept his head hanging and didn't see his trembling fingers. Only hoarsely voiced, cramped and hurriedly took the medicine bowl in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Don't dare to have Mr. Lao, Nanxi will come by himself!" As he spoke, he lowered his eyelids deeper, held a porcelain spoon, and took small sips of the medicinal juice.
Liu Qi looked at her silently for a long time, and then gently wiped away a few drops of medicinal juice left on the back of his hand, and sighed: "If you drink slowly like this, you will only feel that this medicine is more and more painful." Long pain is better than short pain, drink it all in one sip, and then be fine, isn't it also good? ”
Qin Nanxi's half-raised medicine spoon was frozen in the air when he heard the sound, and after a long time, he saw a tear and fell into the medicine bowl with a click. She knew that Liu Qi was a pun.
Seeing her weeping, the corners of Liu Qi's pale mouth trembled slightly, got up and slowed down, and said, "When you are better, I will send someone to send you back to Chang'an." ”
Qin Nanxi choked slightly, looked down at the night-like black and stagnant medicinal juice in the thin white porcelain bowl, and suddenly raised his hand to tilt the bowl and swallowed it all in one gulp. When he lifted it, he held back the bitterness and said, "There is Mr. Lao Liu, if you don't bother me, Nan Xi wants to leave as soon as possible." ”
Liu Qi looked back slightly, his dark gaze swept over Qin Nanxi's cheeks that were red from high fever, and his half-open mouth was quietly closed. In the past few days, I have been by her side day and night, watching her burn and drowsy, watching her mumble at the corner of her clothes in her dreams, and watching her cry bitterly when she mistook herself for Situ Yi. Liu Qi's heart, which had long been like a stubborn stone, was finally shattered by the remorse that grew like a vine. He regretted it, regretted that he shouldn't have left her by Situ Yi's side, that he shouldn't have dragged her into the dirty desires of these people. She is innocent, even if her biological father is the ungrateful Qin Zi'an, even if she finally falls in love with Situ Jing's son Situ Yi, she is still innocent. She was only eighteen years old, so what did she have to do with the strife of more than 20 years ago?
Nodding slightly, Liu Qi only felt a trace of relief in his heart. He knew that Qin Nanxi had been stubborn since she was a child, and he was deeply worried that she would not leave just yet. Now seeing her lost but resolute look, he was relieved. But the relief is not over, and the melancholy rises again, it turns out that Situ Yi also knows Qin Nanxi well enough, he said that as long as she breaks her mind, she will no longer be nostalgic for the slightest.
Liu Qi's heart was fluctuating, but there was still no trace in his mouth: "Since Miss has her mind, I will arrange it." Then he got up and wanted to leave.
"Mr. Liu" Qin Nanxi called him behind him. Struggling to get up and get off, she supported Yingying on the couch and bowed, looked up at him and said, "Sir, there are still a few things unknown in Nanxi, please give me advice." ”
Liu Qi's heartstrings tightened suddenly, and he helped her up, nodded, and silently motioned her to speak up.
"When Nan Xi left Chang'an, my brother once said that in the courtyard of Prince Changping that night, the heavenly bow and arrow array would inevitably release arrows, and Brother Yi ~ General would definitely not be injured. My brother said, Mo Dan is in a hurry, Nan Xi doesn't understand, the arrow doesn't look back, what does my brother mean by that? ”
Hearing that what she asked about was just these old things after all, Liu Qi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pondered for a moment and said, "Since Miss asked Liu Qi, it proves that Miss no longer believes Brother Ling's statement." But in this matter, Brother Ling did not lie. Miss, do you still remember that Mu Yun came with Zhou Huan and Brother Ling on the night of Mu Yun's ambush, and there was another person? ”
Qin Nanxi thought back with a blank eye, nodded and said: "There are three horses, one in front and two behind, and they come together." But the man had been hiding in the shade of the tree under the moon, and I couldn't see who he was. ”
Liu Qidao: "That person is Situ Kun." ”
"Situ Kun? He is ......" Qin Nan was stunned and his eyes widened.
Liu Qi continued: "It is Mu Yun's second brother Situ Kun. On the night Mu Yun was rescued, in the courtyard of King Changping, Situ Kun also came, still hidden in the shadows. Brother Ling also knew that he was in the dark, so he had to follow Zhou Huan's instructions and order the arrows to be released. But Brother Ling has already made arrangements, and the walls have already been densely covered with wind and bamboo guards, and the dead soldiers in them will sacrifice themselves to save each other. ”
Qin Nanxi was puzzled: "Why did they do this? ”
Liu Qi turned around and sat down, raised his hand to invite him, and said with a light smile: "Miss refers to King Changping and Brother Ling?" ”
Qin Nanxi nodded, sat across from him, staring at his answer.
Liu Qi lowered his head and thought for a moment, and then said idly: "At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han dynasty declined, and the heroes rose together. Among the heroes Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, can future generations have any differences in their comments? ”
"After Liu Bei became the king of Zhongshan Jing, the Han clan is naturally different from other traitors, why does Mr. also call him a hero?" Qin Nanxi's eyes were full of doubts, all she had known since she was a child was the theory of sages and Joan of Arc, and she listened to Liu Qi's arguments fiercely, and felt slightly strange.
When Liu Qi heard this, he shook his head and snorted coldly: "Look, everyone in the world is like Miss, they think Liu Bei is orthodox, and the others are traitors. Liu Bei said that after the clan, but at that time, he said that he was the king of Zhongshan Jing, was it? There are many people with the surname Liu in the world, are they all relatives of the Han family? He's just a shoe seller, and he's just taking advantage of the chaos. But just because his surname is Liu, he can win the hearts and minds of his ministers......"
Qin Nanxi's eyes flashed, and he understood: "What Mr. means is that Prince Changping is relying on his status as a nobleman to gather the hearts and minds of his ministers, and his current claim to be a minister is to retreat into advance, and he wants to learn from Uncle Duan of Zhuang Gongzong to dig his own tomb?" He's going to get into trouble when the time comes......"
Liu Qi stared at Qin Nanxi, who was full of horror, and nodded with a smile. Qin Nanxi is right, Prince Changping did not hesitate to take the risk to save Situ Yi, but he asked Assuf to drug him, so that he could not go to the battlefield for a year and a half, just to buy time for himself.
He wants to wait until the time is ripe, and in the name of chaos, he will justifiably step on the peak of power. And on this bloody road, he is indispensable for the sincerity and follow-up of the humerus ministers. Therefore, he protected the leader of the world's scholars and the former prince Qin Zi'an; and firmly enveloped Qin Nanfu by his side, and for Situ Yi, who was uncontrollable and brave, he calculated two hands, if he could collect him for his own use, it would naturally be the best, but if he couldn't, he would kill him without hesitation.
Liu Qi naturally wouldn't talk to Qin Nanxi about these upcoming events, he was only very satisfied, he didn't need to arrange it himself, the former prince Zhou Xie, who Situ Yi wanted to support, would inevitably die soon.
Zhou Chu's country is about to be stormy in Xiao Qiang's troubles, and this is what he Liu Qi, Zhou Chu's long-cherished enemy, is most happy to see.
