Chapter Seventy-Two: Helpless

As soon as Qi Younian opened his mouth, he wanted to leave the capital with Ji Xiaotang.

Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji looked at each other, Qi Younian was in front of them, asking Ji Xiaotang to elope with him.

Second Master Ji couldn't help but cough dryly.

Qi Younian pounced, and knelt down for Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji.

"Uncle, aunt, Xiaotang and I are ~love~happy~, and I have a grandmother in charge before. It's just that Empress Dowager Han harmed my grandmother first, and then broke up me and Xiaotang later. I want to take Xiaotang out of the capital, without the slightest disrespect. ”

Qi Younian is willing to swear in front of Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji that he will marry Ji Xiaotang as his wife and live up to Ji Xiaotang for the rest of his life.

"Please approve my uncle and aunt."

He is so sincere and solemn, and he is still a grandmother who has just lost his love, and a sad person of his sweetheart, both Master Ji and Mrs. Ji Er can't bear to blame him.

"Ayou, get up, let's talk well."

The matter of elopement is simply unrealistic. Even if she really hoped that Ji Xiaotang could be with the person she really liked, Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji would not agree to this way.

Even if they are very relieved of Qi Younian's character and commitment.

"Mother, Daddy, let me talk to Ah You alone." Ji Xiaotang looked at Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji.

Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji hesitated for a moment, then nodded immediately, and the two of them went outside to sit and drink tea together.

Ji Xiaotang helped Qi Younian up.

Qi Younian grabbed ~ Ji Xiaotang's hand and refused to let go, and Ji Xiaotang did not break free.

"Xiaotang. I'm sincere......"

"I know." Ji Xiaotang nodded.

"But, Ayou, have you ever thought about what we will do after we leave the capital?"

"I ......"

"Whether you think about it or not. I've thought about it all. We can't stay in Daqin, we can go to sea. Uncle now has experience in going to sea, and he has also bought islands overseas. Even if his fleet is out there, I have a way to get us to sea. From now on, we can live together for the rest of our lives on a small overseas island. ”

This retreat. Originally, it was prepared by Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San for the Ji family, and now it can be used at any time.

Qi Younian's eyes lit up, he was not only happy that Ji Xiaotang had thought about their retreat so carefully. What's even happier is that Ji Xiaotang has even thought of these, which can only represent one thing.

Ji Xiaotang's heart is only him.

Ji Xiaotang did not change his mind. It's still his Xiaotang.

"Xiaotang ......"

looked at the eagerness in Qi Younian's eyes. Ji Xiaotang sighed slightly in his heart. She made Qi Younian happy for a while before she spoke slowly again.

"However, we are free, at ease, and have our wish. But what about the Ji family, what about the Mighty Marquis Mansion? ”

If Qi Younian was a responsible man, he would not have thought of this.

"I've thought about it all." Sure enough, Qi Younian said. "Xiaotang, the main thing of the Ji family. You and I know that. Even if you go with me, four...... King An, he can't talk back again. Your father can handle the rest. As for the Mighty Marquis Mansion, my father is still in the prime of life, and there are several elder brothers, who can also be on their own. I don't want to be the son of this world, and there is no shortage of people to inherit the Mighty Marquis Mansion. ”

He also seriously considered all aspects of things. The departure of him and Ji Xiaotang is indeed a loss for the family, but the two families can still live as usual.

If it weren't for that, even if he wanted to be with Ji Xiaotang again, he would never make such a suggestion.

"There is indeed no shortage of people to inherit the Mighty Marquis Mansion, but your brothers are not as good as you." Qi Younian can carry forward the mighty Marquis Mansion, but if there is an heir, he can only keep it at most.

Moreover, Qi Younian's mother has lost her own daughter, and now he is the only biological son.

“…… And Ayou, your wish since childhood, if you leave, you will never be able to realize it in this life. "Qi Younian's volunteer since childhood is to lead the troops to guard the Quartet and conquer the world.

Ji Xiaotang told me eloquently, in the final analysis, they can't leave this country behind.

"There's a lot we have to do, but we haven't done yet." One of them is Qin Min's hatred.

Did they just let Qin Min die in vain? Ji Xiaotang looked at Qi Younian.

She knew Qi Younian's answer, and Qi Younian wanted to take her away, out of affection, not out of impulse. She also believes that if she and Qi Younian leave, the two of them will live a very worry-free and happy life in this life.

But when they dream back at midnight, they will also have a lot of melancholy.

They won't regret being together, but they will miss their families, they will feel guilty, they will regret what they should have done, but they didn't.

Qi Younian was reluctant to her, but if he gave him time, he would slowly figure it out.

"Xiaotang, aren't you going with me?" Qi Younian just asked, looking even a little pitiful.

"Ayou, you will become the god of war of Great Qin, and from now on, your martial arts will prosper. Your name, the name of the Mighty Marquis' Mansion, will remain in history forever. "Ji Xiaotang is not a prophecy, but it is better than a prophecy, she has foreseen the future of Qi Younian and the Mighty Marquis Mansion.

Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian were talking in the study, and they didn't finish until it was almost time to hold the lamp. Second Mrs. Ji walked to the door several times and looked inside, and what she saw the most was Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian sitting opposite each other, with a low voice, and she didn't know what to say.

At first, Qi Younian was still very excited, but then it turned into depression, and then later, Qi Younian finally calmed down.

Ji Xiaotang has always been very calm, she seems to have expected such a day for a long time.

Mrs. Ji Er walked back to Master Ji Er and sighed softly.

"They're not done yet?" Second Master Ji asked in a low voice.

"Still talking." Mrs. Ji nodded.

"I don't know how they have so many words." Second Master Ji also sighed, "Speaking of which, we are all incapable of being parents, not only can't do anything for our daughter, but it will affect her a lot." ”

Mrs. Ji also felt very indebted to Ji Xiaotang.

But Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian's family affairs. But there is also the factor of Princess Changning in it. Even if the Ji family is not the current Ji family, I am afraid that there is no way.

Mrs. Ji Er persuaded Ji Er so much.

Of course, Master Ji Er also understands this truth, and blames himself. It's because he loves Ji Xiaotang too much.

"Helpless, helpless how to ......"

Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian's current situation is exactly these four words, helpless.

"Poor Xiaotang has to experience such a painful thing at such a young age." The four words of helplessness have exhausted how many sad people in the world.

The husband and wife were talking in a whisper, and a confidant came in to report outside. said that Qin Zhen, the king of An, was here.

Second Master Ji was taken aback, and hurriedly gave Second Mrs. Ji a look.

Mrs. Ji got up hurriedly and went to the door of the inner room.

Ji Xiaotang just raised his head at this time. She could already hear the voices outside.

"Mother, is the prince here?" Ji Xiaotang asked.

"Yes." Mrs. Ji nodded, and her eyes subconsciously glanced at Qi Younian.

Qi Younian looked calm.

"Since the prince is here, then please come in." Ji Xiaotang said very calmly. Of course, she understood Mrs. Ji's eyes. Second Mrs. Ji was worried about whether she should let Qi Younian avoid Qin Zhen.

Ji Xiaotang didn't say anything about this. She didn't think it was necessary to let Qi Younian avoid Qin Zhen. There is no need to hide the matter of her meeting with Qi Younian from Qin Zhen.

Even if she officially married into King An's Mansion and became Princess An later, she and Qi Younian were at least good friends.

When Qin Zhen arrived at the door of Jinghuatang, he saw Second Master Ji, Second Mrs. Ji and Ji Xiaotang all greeting him at the door, and Qi Younian was with them.

Qi Younian also saw Qin Zhen. His eyes immediately became sharp, and his face became quite ugly.

The two of them have already fought once. Now Qin Zhen still has a disguise on his face. But looking at Qi Younian's appearance, it seems that if he doesn't agree with each other, he will beat Qin Zhen again here.

Qin Zhen naturally understood the unkindness in Qi Younian's eyes, he paused slightly, and then walked over with a normal face, first met with Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji, and then saw Ji Xiaotang, and then his eyes naturally turned to Qi Younian.

"It turns out that Ayou is also here, and it just so happened to happen. I brought some souvenirs that had just been brought from the south and handed them over to the kitchen, and Ayo happened to taste them together. I remember Ayo ......"

Before Qin Zhen's words could be finished, he was interrupted by Qi Younian.

Qi Younian didn't pay attention to Qin Zhen at all, but just said goodbye to Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji, and then said to Ji Xiaotang: "Xiaotang, I have left in advance." I'll come back to see you when I have time. ”

Qi Younian and Qin Zhen staggered shoulder-to-shoulder and walked away.

Qin Zhen stood there a little embarrassed, glanced at Qi Younian's back, then raised his hand and touched his nose, and smiled wryly.

"Ayou is still angry with me, actually, I don't mind letting him punch him two more times." Qin Zhen's performance is extremely generous.

This kind of performance immediately won the favor of Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er.

Someone had already gone to see off Qi Younian, Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji, together with Ji Xiaotang, accompanied Qin Zhen to the upper room of Jinghuatang to talk.

Ji Xiaotang had naturally noticed the injury on Qin Zhen's forehead. The wound had apparently been treated, wrapped in white gauze, but still showing a slight bruise.

"How is the prince's injury?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qin Zhen to take off the gauze, and she wanted to see Qin Zhen's wound in person.

Qin Zhen said that he would not get in the way and would not let Ji Xiaotang see it, but Ji Xiaotang was very insistent, and Qin Zhen had to agree.

Ji Xiaotang personally took off the gauze, Qin Zhen did hurt his forehead, it was an egg-sized bruise, and a layer of oily skin was broken. The injury is really hurt, but compared to this injury, Qin Zhen's gauze is a bit exaggerated.

Ji Xiaotang glanced at Qin Zhen meaningfully.

Qin Zhen must have done this on purpose, exaggerating his wounds.

Qin Zhen grinned again, seeing that Ji Xiaotang didn't ask, he didn't explain.

Ji Xiaotang slowly helped Qin Zhen bandage the wound again.

Second Master Ji and Second Mrs. Ji also followed Ji Xiaotang to see Qin Zhen's wounds, and Second Mrs. Ji was a little embarrassed, and asked Qin Zhen carefully what medicine he used, and whether it hurt or not.

"This injury looks like this now, and after tonight, it will get worse if you don't get it right. Ayou is from a martial arts background, and his fists and feet are not as good as ordinary people's fists and feet. Although he was a steady child. But after all, he was young, and he was ...... in a hurry," Second Mrs. Ji vigorously instructed Qin Zhen not to ignore the injury. You must find a good doctor, no matter whether you take the medicine internally or externally, you can't be sloppy.

Second Mrs. Ji already regarded Qin Zhen as her son-in-law.

"It's not in the way," Qin Zhen inadvertently sat more upright. Mrs. Ji Er treated him like this, and he was not unmoved. "Ayou was born in martial arts, and I have learned some work from the teachings in the palace since I was a child. I haven't put it down all these years, and these fists and kicks can still withstand it. ”

Second Mrs. Ji heard Qin Zhen say this. He relaxed slightly, but he still told Qin Zhen not to be careless. While blessing Qin Zhen, she secretly glanced at Ji Xiaotang.

There is no need to talk to each other. One look is enough.

Ji Xiaotang knew. Second Mrs. Ji thought that she had a cold attitude towards Qin Zhen, so she showed more concern for Qin Zhen.

"I told the kitchen to boil some blood-soaked soup." Ji Xiaotang said, while asking Qin Zhen, "What did the prince bring today, you have injuries on your body, can you still eat it?" ”

Ji Xiaotang didn't deliberately ask Qin Zhen for warmth, showing any small intentions. However, it seems normal to talk like this. But it made Qin Zhen's heart happy. It's as if he and Ji Xiaotang have been husband and wife for a long time, and the relationship is not strong, but warm and comfortable.

It's the taste of home.

Mrs. Ji Er and Ji Xiaotang both made her feel the taste of home.

"I can't eat it, so let's make what I can." Qin Zhen smiled, his tone was also familiar, without a trace of politeness at all. He didn't see himself as an outsider for a long time.

Qin Zhen was like this, Mrs. Ji Er was very happy, so she asked Qin Zhen what he wanted to eat, and mentioned a few dishes, that is, Qin Zhen came to Xinhuatang to eat, and Mrs. Ji Er observed that he liked to eat.

After Mrs. Ji asked Qin Zhen, she happily went to the kitchen in person. Qin Zhen will have dinner in Xinhua Hall, and she will personally watch people prepare the banquet.

“…… Knowing that Xiaotang was back, he would have returned to the palace, and he would have to come over after packing up a little, so that he could discuss with his father-in-law about marrying Xiaotang," Qin Zhen said slowly, "...... Later, I still planned to come later. ”

Qin Zhen smiled at Ji Xiaotang.

Qin Zhen has a lot of eyeliner, and Qi You came to Xinhuatang in the year, and he didn't deliberately carry people behind his back.

Qin Zhen was telling Ji Xiaotang that he originally wanted to come early, but because he knew that Qi You was coming, he deliberately came later. This is to give Qi Younian and Ji Xiaotang a chance to speak.

From the time he first met Qi Younian to the present, Qin Zhen has shown great generosity.

"As a result, I couldn't do anything in the palace, and when I walked to the gate of the palace several times, I still turned back, and it wasn't until I prepared a carriage to come over......"

Qin Zhen was very generous, but he didn't care at all. On the contrary, he cares very much. It's not that I suspect what Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian will have, but because I care too much about Ji Xiaotang.

"The prince and Ayou had a fight today, and Ayou and the prince cut off their robes and broke their righteousness. From now on, how does the prince plan to view Ayou? Qin Zhen said this, and Ji Xiaotang simply spoke openly and honestly.

Qi Younian's matter, she and Qin Zhen must also confess to each other before they get married.

"Although Ayou cut off his robe with me, I still treat Ayou in my heart as before. Ayo is a good friend of mine and a good brother of mine. Qin Zhen said solemnly.

Ji Xiaotang waited for such a sentence.

"If in the future, I will also treat Ah You as a friend, will the prince object?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qin Zhen again.

"No, of course not." Qin Zhen immediately said, "Xiaotang, you and I have known each other for a long time, and you should know who I am." I'm not a petty person. ”

Ji Xiaotang smiled and nodded, Qin Zhen was indeed very energetic.

This is also the reason why she has never hated Qin Zhen.

"Lord Wang, dinner will take a while, let's go to the study to talk." Ji Xiaotang got up and said.

Qin Zhen was slightly stunned, immediately understood, and then stood up: "Okay." ”

Second Master Ji naturally came to the study together, and the three of them sat down in the study and pushed the people who served away, and then Ji Xiaotang spoke.

"With the ambition of the prince, although he encountered Ayou, it should be okay to avoid conflict with Ayou. Even if it is a conflict, the prince has a way to prevent Ayou from fighting. But the prince still let this happen. …… So, I think what I'm about to say, the prince has already guessed. ”

Qin Zhen immediately smiled, his eyes brightened.

"Xiaotang, you and I are heroes who see the same thing."

Although the two of them had not exchanged this topic before, whether it was Ji Xiaotang or Qin Zhen, they all knew that Empress Dowager Han had bad intentions for the two of them to marry.

What Empress Dowager Han wants to see is that Qin Zhen and Qi Younian are against each other.

Therefore, Qin Zhen simply pushed the boat down the river and did this scene with Qi Younian outside the palace gate.

It was Qin Zhen who was making the play, and Qi Younian was completely revealing his true feelings.

"It's not all drama." Qin Zhen explained to Ji Xiaotang, "I deliberately let Ayou beat me a few times, and I have to let Ayou breathe." Of course, others can't, but Ayou is different. ”

If it was someone else, Qin Zhen would rob Ji Xiaotang and rob him, and he wouldn't pay attention to him at all.

But Ayou is different, Qin Zhen almost watched Ayou grow up, and then the two became in-laws again, and their relationship has become deeper and deeper over the years. Privately, Qi Younian is his little brother. For Yu Gong, Qi Younian is the person he trusts the most.

Therefore, when encountering Qi Younian outside the palace gate, Qin Zhen was half acting and half was guilty.

He has always known the relationship between Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian. But he will let Qi Younian do other things, only Ji Xiaotang, he will never give it to anyone.

"Xiaotang, I hope you don't see me as a hypocrite. My heart for you has never been hidden. My attitude has always been clear. Qin Zhen looked at Ji Xiaotang and said.

"I know." Ji Xiaotang bowed slightly.

They were talking about business, but Qin Zhen suddenly reiterated this point, which shows the importance they attach to this matter. Qin Zhen was very concerned about her feelings and her perception of him.

Ji Xiaotang couldn't help but admit that what Qin Zhen said was the truth.

"Lord Wang, what I want to discuss with Lord Wang is exactly this matter."
