Chapter 378: Love to the Depths
Liu Junxiang said gently: "Huang'er, you stupid child. You are so kind, I don't know what kind of person your father is? But you don't need to take care of me, how can you say that my father and I have been husband and wife for more than 20 years, and the so-called one-day husband and wife are a hundred days, and he will not do anything to me. But you, I don't want my 'daughter' to be unhappy for the rest of my life because of me. ”
Xiaotang was silent, as Liu Junxiang said, the night lord had threatened her with Liu Junxiang's life more than once, and even put her under house arrest in the most heavily guarded room of the headquarters, which was called protection, but why wasn't it a demonstration against Xiaotang?
Can she really ignore Liu Junxiang? The answer is impossible.
With her strength, it is impossible to escape with Liu Junxiang, and besides, Liu Junxiang doesn't want to leave here. But in this way, she must continue to stay in the Seven Nights according to the wishes of her mother, under the command of the Lord of the Night.
Liu Junxiang continued: "Alas, Huang'er, don't hate your father too much. In fact, he is not a ruthless person. You think, I am such a weak 'girl' who is completely useless to him, but he is willing to marry me, and has protected my burden for so many years, and has never let me be hurt in the slightest......"
Xiaotang couldn't help but say: "That's because only a 'girl' like my mother will not become a stumbling block to his ambitions." ”
Liu Junxiang shook her head and said, "Be good, don't be so prejudiced against your father. If he had married the princess of the Ice and Snow Empire back then, he would have fulfilled his wish long ago, so why bother to go around a big circle and establish seven nights?"
Xiaotang said: "Mother, you don't understand. He just doesn't want to rely on 'female' people, he wants to take over the world by himself, so as to prove his ability. If you want me to say, he's a madman, a madman who is carried away by power!"
She can speak well, how can Liu Junxiang talk about her? I had to sigh, look out the window, and reminisce about the distant past.
When Xiaotang saw her eyes, he knew that she was beginning to immerse herself in the past again, and couldn't help asking: "Mother, why did you fall in love with him? He is not worthy of you at all, did he kidnap you with violence, and then force you to marry him?"
Liu Junxiang smiled hoarsely and said, "Where do you want to go? I am willing to marry your father." Back then, I was the first scholar 'door', and I didn't have a lot of fame in the town, but I was also a little famous. And your father was born in poverty, and his family was poor, and he often relied on our family's alms. ”
"Then, when his parents were lost in an accident and he became an orphan, our family took him in as a servant, and I met him at that time. Later, he was found to have a high talent, and no math mansion or martial arts hall in the empire rushed to ask for him, so he left, and when he came back ten years later, he was already a very powerful person. ”
"You know, it is common for ordinary men to have three wives and four concubines, and a young talent like him who is so amazing and 'glamorous' and 'gorgeous' is indispensable to be sought after by 'females', and I heard that there are princesses and county lords who favor him. But he chose to return to our town, come to my house, go to the 'door' to propose marriage, and want to marry me through the 'door'. ”
Liu Junxiang was out of control as soon as he said it, and Xiaotang heard these words more than once, and hurriedly said: "Wait, mother, I know that after he became famous, he went to the 'door' to propose marriage or something, but what I asked was why you like him! He proposed to him, but if you don't like him, you have the right to refuse! Could it be that your grandparents are powerful and forced you?"
was asked by the 'girl', Liu Junxiang also blushed a little, and said: "When I was young, I was quite cute, but when I grew up, I was mediocre, and I asked him why such an extraordinary person as him would marry an ordinary 'girl' like me." He told me that he fell in love with me when he first saw me when he was a child, and that it was a bowl of porridge that brought him back from starvation, and that it was also the first time he had a heartfelt for a 'woman', and he never felt that way for other 'women' again. ”
Xiaotang was greatly surprised, and said, "What? My father would say such a thing? How can this kind of sweet talk not sound like it came from that kind of mouth? Mother, you were so moved that you were so moved, and then fell into his trap?"
Liu Junxiang said: "You kid, how can you talk? He is your father! Although he is not good enough for you, you can't completely deny him!"
Xiaotang was not convinced, and muttered in a low voice: "Will there be a father who sells a 'girl' who is less than seven years old to another country's mansion as a 'waiter' or 'girl'? If I hadn't met my son, would I still be innocent now?"
Liu Junxiang was soft-hearted, hugged Xiaotang gently, and said, "Child, do you want to save your sweetheart----?"
Xiaotang was startled, hurriedly struggled out of her embrace, and said, "Mother, what are you talking nonsense again? What if someone else hears it!"
Liu Junxiang said kindly: "What, you don't want to save your sweetheart, you want him to be locked up in prison all the time?"
"Of course not!" Xiao Tang blurted out without thinking, and only after finishing speaking, he covered his mouth in surprise and lowered his head silently.
Liu Junxiang stroked her back and said, "This is your choice." Child, don't let yourself regret it for the rest of your life. Let me ask you, in your mind, are you a little more Yehuang or a little more Xiaotang?"
She shook her head blankly, took out the glass begonia pendant from the storage ring, and placed it in the palm of her hand. This glazed begonia pendant is made from the 'flower' petals of the begonia when she and Tianlan first met ten years ago.
Ten years ago, it was in the season when the begonia 'flower' petals were flying, she was sent to Tianlingsha Mansion and saw Tianlan for the first time. That year's begonia 'flower' was the most beautiful begonia 'flower' she had ever seen. The faint pink and flower petals float all over the sky, and what comes into the eyes is the warm color. Under the begonia tree, among the begonia 'flowers', the astonishing 'glamorous' glance is the most unforgettable picture of her life. And her name Xiaotang has also become her most important name.
Undoubtedly, compared to other things in this world, begonia 'flowers' are her favorite. She secretly hid a piece of begonia 'flower' petals that year, and inlaid them in the glass to make a 'fine' pendant, which is now the glazed begonia pendant in her hand.
She once 'handed' this pendant to Tianlan once in the southern hut of Qianfeng Winding Path, and then after they escaped, Tianlan returned the pendant to her. This pendant stores too many memories of her, and when she sees this pendant, she thinks of Tianlan, and thinks that Tianlan is good to her, that is, she will exchange all the treasures in the world with her, and she is reluctant to replace any second of memory.
Thinking about it, she couldn't help but cry again, and said, "Xiaotang...... I'm Childe's Xiaotang...... Always ......"
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Xiaotang hurriedly wiped away his tears, reverted to a cold tone, and said loudly: "What's the matter?"
The person at the outer 'door' said respectfully: "Miss Qiyu, the Lord of the Night has something important to look for you, please go to the study to see you." ”
Xiaotang replied: "Okay, got it." I'll go right away. You step back first. ”
"Yes. "The man outside the 'door' answered, and then left respectfully. This is Madame's bedroom, and ordinary soldiers can't stay around at will, so Xiaotang dares to talk to Liu Junxiang here.
Xiaotang looked at Liu Junxiang reluctantly, Liu Junxiang just smiled and said, "Good girl, go." Your dad should have something to do with you, don't delay. ”
Xiaotang nodded and said, "Well, then I'll be back soon, you wait for me for a while." ”
With that, she turned her head and was about to leave. Liu Junxiang thought about it and called out to stop her: "Wait a minute......"
"Hmm, mother, is there anything else?"
Liu Junxiang got up, lovingly tidied up her messy collar, then neatly hung the hair hanging down from her forehead behind her ears, and finally smoothed out the folds on her long skirt.
After doing this carefully, she smiled and said, "My child, you will always be my mother's favorite phoenix." Please remember that my mother also loves you, and I hope you can get your happiness and peace and joy in your life. ”
Xiaotang obediently let Liu Junxiang tidy up her appearance, and after listening to her words, she smiled and said: "Mother, are you praying again?" Hehe, having my mother with me is my greatest happiness. There's no time, so I'll go over first, right?"
Liu Junxiang nodded kindly and said, "Well, let's go." ”
Xiaotang didn't think much about it at all, strode away, and carefully closed the 'door' for his mother when he left.
After she left, Liu Junxiang returned to the 'bed' and took out a piece of white silk from under the pillow. Xiaotang never dreamed that today's conversation was a farewell to his mother......
Xiaotang came to the front of the study, the 'door' was open, and she walked in.
In the room, a middle-aged man was sitting at his desk dealing with copywriting, looking focused and serious. He had a square face, his sword eyebrows erected, and at first glance he knew that he was a strict person, that is, he still sat straight without anyone else.
This person is Xiaotang's father, that is, the real leader of Seven Nights. Except for Liu Junxiang, who has been under house arrest for a long time, his real name is no longer known, and the people of Seven Nights call him the Night Lord, and Xiaotang only knows that he is called the Night Lord, as for why he gave up his original name, no one knows.
Xiaotang looked at her father with complicated eyes, no matter how much resentment and dissatisfaction she had against this person in her heart, she had to admit that this person was indeed very capable, and he could single-handedly establish this underground organization covering the entire continent.
She respectfully saluted the Lord of the Night and said, "Father." ”
The night lord put down the pen in his hand, raised his head to look at Xiaotang, and said, "Well, it's coming, sit down." ”
The study room is also used as a major meeting place, so there are plenty of seats in the room. Xiaotang found a seat in the front row and sat down, his body was straight, and he didn't dare to slack off, which was very different from when facing Liu Junxiang.
The night lord has never liked to beat around the bush, so he opened the 'door' and said, "Have you ever seen Tianling Shalan?"
Xiao Tang's body shook slightly, but she was not too surprised, because everything here could not be hidden from the ears and eyes of the Night Lord, and I am afraid that their conversation in prison had already reached the ears of the Night Lord.
