Chapter 256: Cold War
Qu Miaoling walked out of the teahouse in a trance, and as soon as she got into the carriage, her tears rolled down.
has always had a cold and hard personality, especially after he came back from rebirth, after he realized that she liked her boss Tu Huai, her heart was touched by him.
He was hurt, he was in pain, he was away from himself, and with every slight movement he made, his heart beating with a "thump".
Didn't stop for a moment.
She once wondered if she was sick.
But later she found out that the reason for her abnormality was only because she liked someone.
No, it's her, it's Qu Miaoling who falls in love with Situ Huaiju.
She wiped away her tears and tried to speak in a calm voice, 'Go home.' ’
The groom drove the car and slowly left, while Situ Huaiju's gaze followed a little bit away until the carriage was no longer visible.
Inside the carriage, Qu Miaoling slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.
She thought about it, even if Situ Huaibo hated herself because of today's events, she would send him to that supreme position, she only hoped that he could be well, that's all, on the side, she didn't want to force it.
When she returned to the mansion, she calmed down, and Situ Huaiqi really didn't come to her again, not even a letter.
In the evening, she pushed open the window and looked in the direction of King Chen's mansion.
Gently took out a shawl from the room and draped it on Qu Miaoling, "Miss, what do you think again?" ”
When Miss came back today, she looked lonely, as if she had been bullied by someone.
It's a pity that she didn't go with her today, otherwise at least she would have known who was meeting Miss.
She also went to ask the coachman this afternoon, but the coachman's mouth was very strict, he didn't say anything, and he wanted to beat him so softly that he wanted to beat him.
But the groom's mouth was tightly closed, and she didn't reveal any news, so she could only stomp her feet and come back.
As a result, at night, I saw my own young lady feeling sorry for herself, like a deep resentful woman.
"Miss, what are you stimulated, if you say it, maybe you can unravel it gently, how uncomfortable it is for you to hold it like this."
Gently move with affection and reason, but Qu Miaoling's mouth is tighter than the coachman, and she can't ask a word.
"Miss."
It's very gentle.
"It's okay, go back to sleep, I'm tired too."
Qu Miaoling turned around and went back to the room, her back was depressed and lonely.
It looked like a huge blow.
And Situ Huaibo, who was worried about Qu Miaoling, was also uncomfortable, originally when he met Qu Miaoling, he saved the information for her to explain herself, but nothing was solved, and the two of them broke down.
Qu Miaoling's cruel words that day still echoed in his ears.
"Don't go to her."
Situ Huaizhu not only smiled bitterly, how could he hold back?
When he was at the border, the huge and mellow moon, he missed Qu Miaoling every day for it.
Back in the capital, the distance is obviously closer, but the heart is farther away.
He couldn't accept it.
In the past few days, he didn't know how many times he had secretly stood outside the wall of Wude Houfu, he didn't know where Qu Miaoling's boudoir was, every time a carriage came out, he stared at it, but every time, it wasn't Qu Miaoling.
She hasn't been out of the house for days, is something going on? Or sick?
He was worried, so he had to use the person he had installed in the Wude Hou Mansion, and the person reported that Qu Miaoling was fine, so he put his mind at ease, but his heart was even more bitter.
He tilted his head and looked at the crescent moon in the sky, curved, just like the corners of Qu Miaoling's lips raised when he smiled, very beautiful, very beautiful.
I couldn't help but think of her voice and smile, and he couldn't get it out.
These days, he has been stubborn and didn't go to her, he tugged at the position of his heart, which was sore and painful, and very uncomfortable.
Late at night, he turned around and went back to the house, and under the moonlight, his back was full of loneliness.
Some time ago, Mrs. An just told Qu Miaoling that King Duan was going back to Beijing, and within a few days, King Duan came back with someone.
After leaving the capital for more than ten years, King Duan felt a little unfamiliar with everything in the capital, because he was a veteran, and he grew up watching the emperor since he was a child.
Qu Miaoling and everyone from Wudehou Mansion also came, after all, Wudehou was the son-in-law of King Duan, although the county lord of Huiling had been dead for many years.
"Uncle Huang, your body is still very tough, not like a person of this age at all." The emperor stood in front of King Duan.
King Duan rushed back, and a handful of old bones were about to be shattered by the horse, but he still came back.
At the age of 50, she refuses to accept old age.
Seeing the girl standing behind Wu Dehou, at that glance, King Duan was sure that it was his own grandson.
The eight-foot-tall man with iron bones turned his eyes a little red.
This is his precious daughter's daughter, they have grown so big.
Like, really like.
The emperor also saw that King Duan was eager to return home, he couldn't help but glance at Qu Miaoling, and then saw King Duan's longing gaze.
"Uncle Huang, I won't make people feel disgusted here, you should go to reunite with your family."
King Duan bent down, bowed his hand to the emperor, and left the court.
Wu Dehou watched King Duan enter the palace with the emperor, then ran away, when the lord of Huiling died, he was almost beaten to death by King Duan at that time, even if someone stopped him, he was still beaten half to death, a wound.
He was just a civil servant, and he didn't have any kung fu on him, but the king came out of the pile of dead people, and he was knocked down in a few strokes and beaten violently.
He begged for mercy loudly, his face was gone, and King Duan was panting and scolding him.
"I'm really blind to marry my daughter to you."
When Wu Dehou was conscious again, it was when he returned to Wu Dehou Mansion that he knew that he was knocked unconscious by King Duan and was carried back.
At that time, the old lady stayed by the bedside, wiping her tears and scolding King Duan for being disrespectful.
When he was sent back lying down that day, the old lady had the idea of going to the palace to complain, but she immediately learned that it was the emperor's person who sent Wu Dehou back to the house, and the emperor knew that Wu Dehou was being bullied, so he didn't say a word, not even a verbal self-question.
It is clearly to protect King Duan.
After that, the emperor sent someone to send some supplements, at that time Su Dexi was not the eunuch in charge, but an internal eunuch under the eunuch, and he specially came to deliver the decree.
"Master Hou, the county lord of Huiling has just gone, and the emperor is not good at punishing King Duan, so you can be sympathetic to the old King Duan for losing his beloved daughter, can you?"
Wu Dehou's face was stained with a touch of separation, but immediately he squeezed out a smile and said, "Of course, after all, King Duan is the old man of Benhou. ’
Su Dexi left with a smile on his face, and after he left, Wu Dehou had all the antiques in his house in pieces.
"Bastard, asshole!" While smashing, he roared angrily.
The emperor thought of King Duan, and he didn't give justice at all, he was beaten like this, and King Duan didn't even have a word of apology!
Wu Dehou was about to be angry to death, but there was nothing he could do.
But fortunately, because of the early death of his daughter, King Duan left the capital early to go to the border.
When King Duan left, the emperor went to send it, originally Wu Dehou didn't want to go, but the surface work had to be done, he was just about to go out, King Duan sent someone to say, don't let him go, otherwise, he will be beaten when he sees him.
Frightened, Wu Dehou quickly retracted his legs and went back to the house in a gloomy manner.
At that time, because he was taken away by King Duan, he was a laughing stock in his mouth for a long time.
They all said he was incompetent, that he was weak.
He was angry in his heart, and during that time, he didn't even go out, and it took a long time before he dared to go out.
After so many years, as long as he thought of King Duan and that face, he couldn't help but put his anger on the top of the heavenly spirit.
This time, King Duan returned to Beijing, if it wasn't for the emperor's order, he would never come.
After watching Duan Wang enter, he ran away as soon as possible.
Even the Wen family was left behind by him, Qu Chensi looked at his strange whereabouts of his father, and couldn't help but wonder: 'Mother, what's wrong with him, father?' ’
Wen obviously knew about these things at the beginning, she smiled awkwardly and did not answer her son's question.
"Tatsumi, let's go too."
Qu Miaoling entered the palace at the invitation of the Gonggong people, and she waited for King Duan outside the imperial study.
In the last life, King Duan poured out his heart and lungs for himself, but because of the death of his mother, at first, King Duan was still a little alienated from himself, but gradually, Qu Miaoling could still feel his grandfather's love for him.
Even if Duanwangfu was almost beheaded by herself, her grandfather's eyes on the execution ground were still because she could see the love.
There was blood in the corner of his mouth, his mouth opened a few times, and he was saying, "Be careful of Situ Huaibo." ”
But she didn't believe it, and in the end she got that explanation, it was she who lied, and she was stupid.
Seeing her grandfather come out, Qu Miaoling hurriedly greeted her, thinking of those things in her previous life just now, her eyes couldn't help but redden, and tears rolled down from the inside.
King Duan looked at the little girl who was running towards him, and his expression became more and more serious.
"Reckless, like something."
Qu Miaoling's expression froze, she forgot that this was the first time she and her grandfather had met after many years.
She hurriedly braked the car, but her uncontrollable eyes were still envious.
I thought that the guild would continue to criticize him, after all, he couldn't look serious.
But—
"Why are you still crying, are you being bullied? With your grandfather here, who would dare to bully you. ”
Qu Miaoling's eyes widened.
"Is it Wu Dehou's bastard, Miao Ling, don't worry, grandpa was able to clean him up ten years ago, and now he can do the same!"
Then Qu Miaoling saw King Duan rolling up his sleeves, looking as if he was going to fight with someone.
Qu Miaoling couldn't cry or laugh, she reached out and grabbed the eager Duan Wang, her voice couldn't help but have a coquettish taste, "Grandpa, no, where do they dare to bully me, I still have my grandfather to support me." ”
Duan Wang straightened his waist reservedly, "That's it." ”
Looking at such a grandfather, Qu Miaoling wanted to smile even more, "Grandpa, let's leave the palace, my aunt is still waiting for us at home." ”
Of course, King Duan agreed, and the two of them went out of the palace together, and there was a carriage parked outside, and Qu Miaoling asked him to wait here.
"Carriage?" Looking at the carriage, Duanwang's brows gradually furrowed.
"Grandpa, this carriage was specially prepared for you by your granddaughter, don't you like it?"
Qu Miaoling indifferently knew that King Duan didn't like to ride in a carriage, but she also knew that when King Duan came back, she was afraid that she would be tired along the way, and if she rode a horse again, she was afraid that his body would not be able to stand it.
This kind of daughter's little concern she doesn't want Duanwang to know.
King Duan glanced at his little granddaughter, and seemed to understand her thoughts, in the end, he got into the carriage.
Qu Miaoling saw her grandfather go up, she breathed a sigh of relief and followed into the carriage.
The carriage did not stop all the way, and went straight to the Jingkang Hou Mansion.
Mrs. Ann was waiting at the door, and when she saw the carriage coming, she greeted her.
Duanwang came out of the carriage, with some disgust on his face, why was he still on the carriage just now, Qu Miaoling coaxed with good words, but Duanwang just had a straight face.
One moment said that the air in the carriage was too stuffy, and the other said that the cushions were too soft.
In short, it was uncomfortable anywhere, and Qu Miaoling could only smile awkwardly and not answer.
"Auntie."
Qu Miaoling got out of the carriage and saw that King Duan had already gone to the mansion by himself.
Mrs. An and Qu Miaoling looked at each other and smiled, and walked into the house together.
When I came back from Jingkanghou's Mansion again, it was already night, and Wu Dehou was waiting in the front yard, as if he was waiting for her.
"Miao Ling, your grandfather, cough cough, how is your health?"
"Father, it's good, my grandfather's body is really tough, not less than it was back then."
After Qu Miaoling finished speaking, Wu Dehou coughed louder, he hurriedly stood up, left a sentence of "That's good" and fled.
Qu Miaoling had a question mark in her head, but today she was also tired, so she went back to Wanzhen Courtyard.
