There is a lot of rain and snow in the capital this winter, and this day is a rare good weather.

The sun is shining, the trees are still and the wind is silent.

The maids and ladies in each room and courtyard are busy drying the bedding, and the Anning Hou Mansion is more lively than in the past, and laughter and laughter fly out from the corner of the courtyard from time to time.

Qi Zhengzhi took a break today, and he thought of his father who was alone again, and the idea of going to visit became stronger and stronger.

He told Shen what he thought, and she didn't object.

"If you want to go, let's go." Shen said lightly.

Since the last time she had an argument with Qi Zhengzhi, her attitude towards him has been so lukewarm, and it is very difficult to return to the love and sweetness she was like before, unless he has changed drastically.

This old man made Qi Zhengzhi's heart half cold again.

After all this time, how can Hui Niang still remember it? What the hell am I going to do for her to forgive me?

Qi Zhengzhi let out a long sigh and asked Shen, "Hui Niang, you will go with me, right?" ”

Shen shook his head lightly, "It's almost the New Year, there are a lot of trivial things, there is no way to go together this time, wait for the New Year." ”

Qi Zhengzhi was disappointed with her answer, but he couldn't say anything.

Because the Liu, Yang, and Wu families only go to visit Qi Changxin once a year, while the Shen family has to go at least three times a year, what reason does Qi Zhengzhi have to ask her to go this time?

He had to nod, "Well, then the family affairs are to worry about Lao Huiniang, I'll go to my mother's place to talk, and by the way, ask my mother if she can go." ”

"Hmm." Shen snorted lightly.

When talking to Qi Zhengzhi, she was not idle. Something has been written.

I didn't raise my eyes when I heard his departing footsteps.

Mother Yun watched from the sidelines, couldn't help sighing, and persuaded. "Madam, you should be generous, don't worry about the third master, now you are hurting yourself."

Shen put down the pen in his hand, smiled bitterly, and said, "Mom." You're always there for us, and with his kind of style, do you think it's worth my generosity? ”

Mother Yun was speechless. I don't know how to answer.

A few days ago, Shen and Yun's mother took out some fabrics and prepared to make a new set of clothes for each of the maids and daughters in Begonia Garden.

When the two were discussing, Qi Zhengzhi came in and heard that he was going to make clothes, so he said. "Make a ...... for Lian'er too"

Probably he also realized that he had said the wrong thing. quickly swallowed back the words and looked at his wife with an embarrassed expression.

Although the words were not finished, the meaning was clearly expressed.

He was still thinking about the White Lotus in his heart!

Shen was so angry that he couldn't smash all the fabrics on his face, and asked him if he had any heart.

She put her anger down and just said, "You don't need to tell me who you want to make clothes for, you just do it." ”

"Hui Niang, listen to me, I made a slip of the tongue for a while......" Qi Zhengzhi hurriedly defended himself.

"Cloud Mom. Let's go and talk to Higashijima. Shen ignored him at all and left directly with Yun's mother.

Since this incident. The relationship between husband and wife, which had been somewhat relaxed, has cooled down again, and it is even more serious than the last time.

Because Shen's heart was really completely broken, he would no longer believe in any of Qi Zhengzhi's promises.

Shen continued to write with a pen, but Yun's mother did not persuade him again.

Because she really couldn't find the words to persuade her.

Qi Zhengzhi's strengths are now all his shortcomings, and his shortcomings are still shortcomings.

said that Qi Zhengzhi went to Songhe Courtyard and told Ma what he meant.

Ma is also discussing with Liu about the New Year's related arrangements.

After his son finished speaking, the corners of Ma's mouth raised slightly, and he said, "Third child, if your father knew that you were so filial, he would be very pleased." However, you don't have to go this time, and it's useless to go. ”

"Why?" Qi Zhengzhi's heart lifted.

What does the mother mean by this, does it mean that the father has already suffered a ......

He didn't dare to think about it.

Ma replied succinctly, "He's gone." ”

Let's go......

These two words were like a heavy punch, hitting Qi Zhengzhi's chest hard.

Is Father really ......

Why didn't Mother tell us? Why?

Ma Shi glanced at him, saw that his face was full of pain, guessed what he had misunderstood, and said, "Third brother, you think too much, a few days ago, Uncle Qi sent someone to send a letter over, saying that there is a monk who has attained the Tao and said that he can completely cure your father's strange disease, and your father has left the villa to treat his illness." ”

"If there is such a thing, can the enlightened monk really cure the disease? Don't delay your father's illness? Also, where my father is now, I will go there to visit the monk as well, and meet the monk by the way. Qi Zhengzhi let out a long sigh of surprise, his father was fine.

"Since people are high-ranking monks, we can see wherever we want to, you can rest assured that Uncle Qi will do things, and he will not dare to do things that he is not sure of.

Your father has also been taken care of by him all these years, and no one else can be as careful and loyal as Uncle Qi. Ma said.

In fact, she didn't dare to tell her son, she didn't know where Qi Changxin was going for treatment.

Fortunately, the letter was sent by Uncle Qi's son, and the handwriting was also written by Uncle Qi himself, otherwise, she would have doubted the authenticity of this matter.

Since it was Uncle Qi's arrangement, she believed that the result would be the same, and Qi Changxin would always be a madman who was worse than death.

Uncle Qi, she is absolutely trusting!

Of course, if Ma still has a little bit of husband and wife affection for Qi Changxin, she will definitely send someone to the villa to have a look, and then ask where he is at the moment, and then let people confirm that he is safe and sound, so that she can rest assured.

Qi Zhengzhi didn't know what his mother really thought in his heart, and seeing that his mother was full of confidence, he was also relieved, looking forward to the day when his father would recover and return home.

Later, Qi Miao also learned about her grandfather from her mother, but she didn't take it to heart.

If anyone could cure her grandfather, she wouldn't object.

She only hopes that after her grandfather's body recovers, he will not go back to the old ways. Otherwise, it will lead to tragedy.

"Mother, in a few days it will be the day of your surrender, we have to sum up how to celebrate." Qi Miao said to her mother with a smile.

Shen gently stroked her hair. Shaking her head slightly, "Mother is not going to invite others to come, you can accompany me to Lingshan Temple to worship incense."

It's almost the New Year, I'm going to add some sesame oil money, and ask the Bodhisattva to bless you and Zhan'er safely, as long as you are all well, my mother is happier than anything. ”

The relationship between Qi Miao and Qi Zhan has improved greatly since returning from Lingshan Temple. Shen believes that this is the reason for the blessing of the Bodhisattva of Lingshan Temple.

Although her mother's voice was soft, her tone was unquestionable, and Qi Miao did not persuade again.

For the relationship between mother and father. She didn't know what to say, and her feelings were a little complicated.

Seeing her mother in such pain, she regretted leading her mother to see through her father's essence step by step, and it is not a good thing to be a foolish person.

But if the mother is not sober. How can you see the ugly and despicable faces of Yao's mother and daughter. And how can we help the mother clear the potential danger?

Fortunately, her mother was much stronger than she expected.

After returning from rebirth, nothing disappointed her more than her father.

After going through so many things, he still can't wake up, and I have to admire him for his firm determination and never being easily affected by the external environment.

What she hated most was her father's way of hurting people.

He said hurtful words without knowing it, and looked at you with a simple and innocent face, saying, 'What's wrong with me?' What did I do wrong? I'm here for your own good, do you know? ’。

Or maybe he's crying out in pain today, 'I'm sorry, I was wrong.'" Turning his back, he was still undisciplined. I have long forgotten what I just said.

It is not so much that he is kind-hearted to Bailian's mother and daughter, and attaches great importance to love and righteousness, it is better to say that he is too self-conscious, and what he does is not allowed to be ignored by others, let alone change himself because of anyone.

To put it mildly, he was actually an arrogant and conceited man who thought he would never make a mistake. And those who think he is wrong are all narrow-minded and ignorant.

With such a father, Qi Miao can only hehe for herself, but it is ridiculous that she used to expect him to change, which shows how naïve and stupid she is.

While the mother and daughter were talking, Qi Zhan walked in and called with a smile, "Mother, sister, the weather is so good, why don't you go out to bask in the sun." ”

His eyebrows furrowed, and his smile went deep into his eyes.

You can see that he is in a good mood.

"Zhan'er is here, didn't you make an appointment with Luo Gongzi to go out to play today, why haven't you left yet." Shen gently beckoned to his son, and the smile between his eyebrows and eyes doted.

"Well, I was about to go out, and I came to say hello to my mother." Qi Zhan smiled and nodded, he looked at Qi Miao again and said, "Sister, the weather is good, and you are fine, so you can go with me, okay?" ”

Since knowing Luo Ziqing's true identity, Qi Miao not only did not alienate him, but because of unfamiliar memories, she got closer to him.

And Shen also knew about him, and he didn't believe that he would be the kind of person who was indecent, so he felt even more distressed about him.

So since then, Luo Ziqing has often been in and out of the Marquis of Anning's mansion, and he offered to teach Qi Zhan to learn horseback riding, archery, and some simple talisman techniques.

Qi Zhan never tired of this, studied very seriously, and really walked out of the shadow of the white lotus, and the whole person gradually became sunny.

Today, Luo Ziqing asked him to go horseback riding on the outskirts of the city.

Before Qi Miao could answer, Shen Shi nodded with a smile first, "Miao'er go, it's boring to be bored in the house all day, the weather is rare and sunny, and it's not bad to loosen your muscles and bones." ”

"I listened to my mother, it just so happened that Sister Wan'er said last time that she wanted to ride a horse, so I went to ask her if she was free, and it was more lively when there were more people." Qi Miao nodded in response.

"Okay, let's go." Shen nodded happily.

So Qi Miao went back to the house and changed into light clothes, and went out of the house with Qi Zhan and the others.

Luo Ziqing was already waiting in front of the Hou Mansion.

Qi Zhan is not good at riding now, and Luo Ziqing didn't dare to let him ride out of Beijing alone, so he came to the Hou Mansion to walk with him.

Seeing Qi Miao come out, the smile on Luo Ziqing's face couldn't help but deepen.

He dismounted and stepped forward with a smile, "Qi Wu, are you going with you?" ”

The blue eyes were exceptionally bright, shimmering with the light of the wings.

Qi Miao smiled and said yes.

A few people got on the horse and went to find Liu Wan'er first.

Unfortunately, Liu Wan'er has guests at home today, and she can't leave.

Qi Miao had to go out of the capital with Luo Ziqing and Qi Zhan.

On the outskirts of the city there is a very open plot of land surrounded by mountains on both sides. Off the beaten track, it is very suitable for equestrian training.

Luo Ziqing and Qi Zhan have been here two or three times, and today is not the first time.

Qi Miaoze rode the horse for a few laps. Suddenly, I felt hearty, and fine beads of sweat oozed from my forehead.

Qin Si called her, "Miao'er, let's rest for a while, be careful that if you sweat too much, you will catch a cold." ”

"Okay." Qi Miao smiled and nodded.

She and Qin Si sat on the sunny lawn to rest.

Luo Liqing also instructed Qi Zhan in another place.

Seeing the two of them getting along harmoniously and intimately, Qin Si suddenly said, "Miao'er." Actually, I've been hiding one thing from you. ”

"What's the matter?" Qi Miao asked curiously.

Qin Si stretched out his hand and pointed at Luo Ziqing, "Actually, when I was in Chenzhou, I knew that his name was Luo Ziqing." It's just that I'm not sure if he's the eldest son of King Chengnan. ”

Belch!

Qi Miao was stunned.

I didn't expect Qin Si to hide this from her, what is there to hide, and it is not a big secret.

So she asked curiously, "Why are you hiding it from me?" You know I've been looking for someone named Luo Ziqing. ”

Qin Si rolled her eyes at her. Said. "Just because I knew that you had been looking for him, but I didn't know why you were looking for him, I didn't tell you right away."

"What does the two have to do with each other?" Qi Miao became more and more puzzled.

No matter what the reason for her looking for Luo Ziqing was, shouldn't Sister Qin Si tell her about it?

"Of course it matters, I feel that the Ninth Prince Ji Mo is very good to you, and Luo Ziqing is even more familiar with you, to tell you the truth, I just don't want you to know that he is also called Luo Ziqing. Worry about you, you have more dealings with him. Qin Si explained.

Qin Si sighed and said again. "Who would have thought that people are not as good as heaven, but you not only know that his name is Luo Ziqing, but also know that he is the person you have been looking for, and you are really getting closer and closer, alas!"

Her expression was sad, and her tone was melancholy.

When people who don't know see her like this, they may wonder if she is interested in Luo Ziqing, and he is ruthless to her.

"Sister Qin Si, don't you like Brother Luo?" Qi Miao asked.

She also couldn't understand Qin Si's attitude.

"I don't like anyone except my senior brother." Qin Si gave her a roll of her eyes and said decisively.

Qi Miao was amused, patted her arm gently, and said angrily, "I still don't understand your thoughts?" I mean, how do you not like me being friends with Big Brother Luo? ”

"Because I knew Ji Mo first, and then Luo Ziqing, there is always someone who comes first and then comes." Qin Si responded confidently.

This is also true.

Qi Miao choked.

While speaking, Luo Ziqing also came over, and Qi Zhan was still practicing there.

Qin Si originally wanted to stay here and not leave, not letting Qi Miao and Luo Ziqing be alone.

But I feel that this is too naïve.

No matter who Qi Miao knew first, the important thing was who she liked, if she really liked Luo Ziqing, wouldn't it make her sad to do this by herself.

Qin Si then got up with a smile and said to Luo Ziqing and Qi Miao, "You talk, I'll go see Xiao Zhanzhan." ”

Since the relationship between Qi Zhan and Qi Miao eased, she called him Xiao Zhan affectionately.

Although he refused, she was happy to do it.

"Brother Luo has worked hard, sit down and drink some water and snacks." Qi Miao greeted with a smile.

"Okay." Luo Ziqing was also polite, sat down opposite her, and took the rose lotus paste cake she handed over.

"Brother Luo, thank you really for bothering to teach my brother." Qi Miao sincerely thanked him.

Luo Ziqing smiled and did not speak.

When he finished eating the lotus paste cake, he looked directly at Qi Miao's dark eyes and shook his head gently, "Qi Wu, the person who should say thank you is me." ”

In Qi Miao's puzzled eyes, he asked her, "Qi Wu, do you know why I was the most seriously injured in the car accident last time, according to my skills, I can definitely avoid getting hurt." ”

"Actually, this is exactly what I've always been strange about, I didn't know you were martial arts before, and I didn't feel inappropriate to see you injured, but then I found out that you are extraordinary, and I wondered.

Brother Luo, before the car accident, were you framed by the people around you? Qi Miao said.

"No, you're mistaken, those people aren't my subordinates, they're just people I once inadvertently saved.

Not long after I escaped from the palace, I met them, and when they heard about me, they took the initiative to escort me to the capital.

Along the way, they were fortunate to take care of them. They didn't betray me either, and I was hurt just because I was born and died at that time. Think it's too tiring to be alive. Luo Ziqing explained.

The scorching brilliance in his blue eyes suddenly dimmed.

Qi Miao's eyes were red, and she understood his state of mind at that time.

No matter how much hardship he has endured and how many grievances he has suffered, after all, he is only a seventeen-year-old boy, and it is really not easy for him to withstand the great grievances until now, and he can't do it without tenacity and perseverance.

To be replaced by ordinary people. It may have collapsed a long time ago.

"Brother Luo, don't think about the past for the time being, first find a way to make yourself stronger. Then go and clear your name. Qi Miao said.

In the matter of having an affair with a concubine, King Chengnan must understand that Luo Ziqing was framed, otherwise he will never want to return to Chengnan Wangfu openly for the rest of his life.

He doesn't care about the surname Luo, but this can't change the fact that he is a member of the Luo family. His future generations will also need a dignified surname.

Luo Ziqing looked at her and smiled softly. "You and Ji Mo said the same thing."

"Huh? The Nine Princes also persuaded you like this? Qi Miao.

"That's right." Luo Ziqing nodded lightly.

"Well, I'm sure you'll be able to do a good job, Brother Luo." Qi Miao encouraged.

Luo Ziqing looked at her seriously and said, "Qi Wu, you know, if I didn't know you, I might have been decadent and didn't want to fight for anything."

It's strange to say. From the first time I saw you, I thought you were very kind. It's like I've known each other for a long time, and then I inexplicably began to worry about you, and since I can remember, for the first time, I feel that it's good to be alive, and there is a lot of fun, so I have the idea of living well......"

Is this a confession?

Qi Miao thought that she had practiced cheeky kung fu, but Luo Ziqing's words still made her blush.

She blushed, not to say how much she liked him.

In fact, she was more moved.

never thought that one day she would have such weight in the hearts of others and would have such an important role in others, which could not help but move her.

Qi Miao blushed and said, "Thank you Brother Luo for your respect, as you said, you must live well, the person who harmed you has not been retributed, you have no reason to give up on yourself." ”

Looking at her red face, Luo Ziqing's heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and her cheeks began to burn.

"Of course, you see how energetic I am now, what is that little grievance, I will never admit defeat." He hurriedly patted his strong chest and smiled to hide his gaffe at the moment.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, or if she was sweating from riding a horse before, Qi Miao always felt a cold swish on her back, as if someone was staring at her with her eyes.

Thinking about it for a lifetime, she subconsciously looked behind her.

With the dense woods behind him, I couldn't see anything wrong.

"What's wrong?" Luo Ziqing noticed that her brows were tightly furrowed, as if she had something on her mind, and hurriedly asked.

Qi Miao shook her head lightly, "It's nothing, I just feel like there is someone behind me." ”

Luo Ziqing's blue eyes lit up, and she immediately looked at the dense forest behind her.

He whispered to Qi Miao and said, "You go to Qin Si and their side, I'll take a look." ”

As he spoke, he tapped his feet lightly, and his body rushed towards the dense forest like an arrow off the string.

"Brother Luo, be careful." Qi Miao hurriedly advised.

She ran towards Qi Zhan and Qin Si as she said, and she couldn't stay where she was.

Hopefully, she's overwhelmed.

Qin Si saw her suddenly come over and hurriedly asked the reason.

Knowing what happened, Qin Si didn't dare to leave to chase people, she played a twelve-point spiritual protection of Qi Miao's brothers and sisters.

Qi Miao waited for Luo Ziqing with her heart.

It was about half an hour before he returned.

His expression was a little serious.

"How?" Qi Miao asked in a deep voice.

Seeing that he was fine, a heart finally let go.

"It wasn't your illusion before, there were indeed people in the forest, but they were very alert, and they may have left when you turned back, I chased for a long time and didn't find out, it seems that the other party is not weak." Luo Ziqing analyzed.

"Well, I don't know who the other party is, what their purpose is, we all have to be careful, don't go far away recently." Qi Miao said.

She didn't know who the other party's target was, it was her, Luo Ziqing, her brother, or Qin Si, no matter who it was, she couldn't be hurt.

Luo Ziqing nodded in agreement, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's hurry back to the city." ”

The group got on their horses and returned to the capital.

Although there was no danger, Qi Miao had a small pimple in her heart, and when she entered the mansion, she told Qi Zhan Mo to tell her mother about it, so as to save her mother from worrying.

Qi Zhan's face was a little pale, and he hadn't recovered from the previous incident.

He is well protected by his parents, and when has he encountered something that has been watched, he will inevitably be afraid and nervous for a while.

"Got it." Qi Zhan nodded, his voice trembling slightly.

"Brother, don't be nervous, I will definitely protect you." Qi Miao hurriedly comforted him.

"Sister, I'm not nervous, don't worry." When he is an elder brother, he needs his sister to protect him, Qi Zhan is very ashamed, and he is busy standing up and pretending to be strong.

Qi Miao smiled softly.

The brother and sister entered the Hou Mansion.

None of them mentioned it to their mother.

Qi Miao later found an excuse to let her mother not go to Lingshan Temple for the time being.

Time passed very quickly, and after a few snowfalls, it was the end of the year, and it was quiet all the time, and there were no unexpected incidents.

Mother is choosing gifts with Mother Yun according to the gift list.

It's the New Year, and there are many places that need to give gifts, such as my mother's best friends, my father's bosses and colleagues, and the whole house.

Should I give Ji Mo some gifts?

Looking at the dazzling array of gifts, Qi Miao was slightly distracted. (To be continued......)
