Chapter Thirty-Nine: Painstaking Loneliness

"I shouldn't have told you these things now. Qiu Tong's two families have been inherited for decades, and there are two intelligence networks that have nothing to do with each other, if it weren't for the Xin family's affairs, and you asked about it, I wouldn't have told you so early. ”

At this point, the sadness in Tong Guangting's eyes was about to overflow his eyes, he stretched out his hand and stroked Qiu Zeyuan's forehead, his words were full of helplessness, "Child, for the sake of Xin Daiyun, you don't look back, just leave." It's easy for you to let your father choose another prince from among his sons and nephews, but have you ever thought that it took your father twenty-four years to train you, and does he have another twenty-four years that he can use to train another person? ”

Tong Guangting could feel that under the palm of his hand, Qiu Zeyuan's body was trembling, and he said leisurely: "Qiu Taizu died on the battlefield at the age of thirty-two, Taizong returned to the battlefield at the age of thirty-seven, Shizong died at the age of forty-five, and your grandfather Xianzong relapsed at the age of fifty-one, lingering on the sickbed, and passed away in less than a month. Your father is fifty-four years old this year, and he is considered to be a long-lived relative to the ancestors of the previous generations, do you think he can support another twenty years to cultivate a prince? ”

Qiu Zeyuan was uneasy, and his father ......

"Zeyuan, your father and I are already half-buried in the loess...... Sometimes, there are things that we don't want to persecute you, and what father doesn't want his children to have a smooth and happy life? If I could, I would like to guard you forever and eternally, and not let you suffer the slightest pain in this world, but we can't be with you forever. Son, do you understand what I'm saying? The distance between life and death, no one in this world can cross ......"

"Uncle Tong, I ......"

Qiu Zeyuan just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Tong Guangting, "Zeyuan, in the matter of Xin Daiyun, let's each take a step back." Your father and I may not kill Xin Daixun, but Xin Daixun will never set foot in the Overseer's Mansion again. ”

Qiu Zeyuan wanted to speak again, but was stopped again, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, just be merciful, kindly deceive us who are about to die, don't let us die blindly, and we will have no shame to face our ancestors and ancestors when we go underground, okay?" After we close our eyes, how do you want to toss, and who can really control you? ”

Qiu Zeyuan's face turned red and white, and it took a long time before a dry voice came out of his hoarse throat, "Zeyuan, listen to Uncle Tong." ”

Tong Guangting nodded with satisfaction and said, "This house was originally a recuperation place that I built for myself, and now I will give it to you and place Xin Daiyun here." ”

Qiu Zeyuan nodded abruptly, and Tong Guangting said again: "Vice General Lin has escorted Yuan Ye back to Yejin, your father means to hand it over to you to dispose of, you ......"

"I don't want to have anything to do with this person anymore, so I ask Uncle Tong to tell my father on my behalf, and ask someone else to do it for me."

Tong Guangting saw Qiu Zeyuan's resolute expression, so he no longer dwelled on this matter, and instead said: "Okay, you have been running around for the past few days, and your mother is very worried, I will send you back to the Overseer's Mansion first, and you can accompany her well." ”

Two days ago, when Qiu Zeyuan left Yejin, he was ready to never look back, but now he understands that in his life, if he wants to leave this place, he is afraid that it will never be possible......

As soon as the car drove into the alley where the main gate of the Overseer's Mansion was located, Tong Guangting and Qiu Zeyuan noticed that something was wrong, there seemed to be an army gathering in front of the mansion, and the entire street and alley were as bright as day under the light of torches.

Tong Guangting hurriedly ordered the driver to stop, but before the car could stop, he rushed down. After Qiu Jiyuan, who was wearing a military uniform and was giving orders, saw him, he immediately glanced at Qiu Zeyuan, who was following him, and said: "I just received an urgent report from the Pujiang front, Zhao Qiao, a bastard, raided Zhaoning, I want to go to the Military Supervision Department to transfer troops and send generals, and I will listen to you in detail when I turn back." ”

Tong Guangting hurriedly said: "Go quickly, you can rest assured that I am here." ”

Qiu Zeyuan thought that the first time he saw his father after coming back would be to reprimand him, but he didn't expect this to be the case, he hurriedly stepped forward, and he didn't care about repentance and apologize, and asked directly: "Father, do you need me to do anything?" ”

Qiu Jiyuan didn't look at his son, and said loudly as he walked out: "You don't do anything now, stay in the house honestly, and I'll burn high incense." ”

Before the words fell, Qiu Zeyuan couldn't see his father's figure, of course he knew what his father meant, he felt guilty, and turned his head to Tong Guangting, who sent him back to the house, and said: "Uncle Tong, you are also tired for a day, just go back to the house to rest first, I will stay in the house these days, and I will not go anywhere." ”

Tong Guangting raised his hand and patted Qiu Zeyuan's shoulder, thinking that in addition to facing Xin Daiyuan, Zeyuan still had a clear sense of priorities, right and wrong in other matters.

The next day, Qiu Zeyuan woke up from his sleep early, and after having breakfast with his mother, he was about to go to the Overseer's Office to see his father's situation, but he was stopped by Xin Daiyu, who came in a hurry.

As soon as Xin Daiyu saw him, tears poured down instantly, but she still desperately stopped, and asked calmly: "Brother Zeyuan, where is my sister now?" Is she okay? ”

Qiu Ze foresight Xin Daiyi, who was already thin, seemed to have lost weight again, knowing that her days must have been spent in torment these days, and after pulling her to sit down, she said softly: "Your sister is now placed in a private house in the eastern suburbs by me, and there is someone there to take care of her, it's safe, don't worry too much." ”

Xin Daiyi's heart calmed down a little, these days her mother almost doesn't eat rice, her father and brother are also worried, and Brother Zeyuan was expelled from the house and disappeared. The wound on Brother Feng Yi's back made her unbearable to see, but he still comforted her carefully while lying on the bed, and made her laugh......

It's just that her arrival doesn't seem to please Tong Guangting very much, last night when Tong Guangting returned home, he saw her standing by Tong Fengyi's bedside, talking and laughing, and directly sneered at each other, leaving no trace of the past. She endured her grievances and begged him to inquire about her sister's whereabouts, but he only replied "go ask Qiu Zeyuan" and drove her out of Tongfu.

"Brother Zeyuan, you ...... You okay? In fact, Xin Daihuai wanted to ask him about his future plans, but looking at his haggard face, she really couldn't ask.

How could Qiu Zeyuan not know her mind? He barely showed a smile, and his voice was as brisk as possible, "I'm fine, your sister is back, my father is busy with military affairs, and he doesn't have time to punish me, and I'm just at ease these days." ”

Xin Daiyi looked at his smile that was more ugly than crying, and she didn't know what it was like, but she also smiled and said with a smile: "Can I go and see my sister?" At your convenience. ”

Qiu Zeyuan poured hot water on the empty cup in front of Xin Daiyi, and said: "When my father and I explain the matter clearly, after his old man's anger has subsided, I will take you to see your sister, and you will also tell your parents and brother and sister-in-law when you go home, I will take care of your sister." ”

Xin Daiyi nodded in response.

It's just that before Qiu Zeyuan arranged everything, ten days later, the news of Xin Daihuan's hunger strike and fainting came from the private house in the eastern suburbs, Qiu Zeyuan hurriedly took Xin Daiyu and rushed there, seeing Xin Daiyuan pale and lying on the bed lifelessly, Qiu Zeyuan was sad and angry, and his eyes were dizzy, Xin Daiyuan hurriedly supported him who was crumbling, and his eyes were full of concern.

"Miss is on a hunger strike, why didn't you report to me earlier?!" Qiu Zeyuan sharply questioned the shivering subordinate kneeling in front of him.

"Master Hui, yes...... It's Master Tong who takes care of you, you have to rest these days, and no news is allowed to ...... you here."

Before the man finished speaking, he was slapped in the face, and his heart trembled and he immediately fell to the ground, only to hear Qiu Zeyuan say angrily: "Rest?!" Why don't you let me rest now?! Let me tell you, if the young lady has three long and two short, I will let you go down to the ground and rest completely! ”

"Young master, the slave is also acting on orders, begging the young master to bypass the minion, begging the young master to bypass the minion......"

"Get out!"

Xin Daiyu saw that Qiu Zeyuan had changed his humble and gentle temperament in the past, and was furious, knowing that he was concerned about the chaos, and hurriedly sent a cadre away, etc., and asked them about Xin Daiyuan's situation and stayed alone to take care of Qiu Zeyuan.

"Brother Zeyuan, I just heard from the person who took care of my sister that my sister had been clamoring to see ......her a few days ago" Xin Daiyu looked at Qiu Zeyuan's pale face, not knowing how to say those two words.

"I see, you go on." Qiu Zeyuan rubbed his eyebrows, and his slightly hoarse voice revealed endless exhaustion.

"After that, my sister clamored to see you, but they stopped her. Maybe my sister really couldn't think of a way, so she started a hunger strike two days ago. Brother Zeyuan, my sister will be fine, right? ”

Xin Daiyi's voice choked slightly, Qiu Zeyuan took her hand, let her sit beside him, and said softly: "No, I won't let your sister have something to do......"

The two were talking, when they saw Tong Fengyi push the door in, Qiu Zeyuan hurriedly greeted him, and said, "The injury on your back hasn't healed yet, what are you doing here?" ”

"I've been in bed for more than 10 days, and I'm really bored. I was going to look for you at the Overseer's Mansion, but when I heard that you and Lady were here, I came to take a look. How's Daisy doing? ”

"The doctor is inside to diagnose and treat, and the situation is not clear." Xin Dai replied.

Qiu Zeyuan and Xin Daiyi wanted to carry Tong Fengyi to sit on the soft couch in the main hall one by one, Tong Fengyi broke away from their hands and said angrily: "I said that I was almost good!" What do you do? Do you really think I'm disabled? ”

Qiu Zeyuan glanced at him, "The dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn't know the hearts of good people." Aren't we afraid of pulling your wounds? If you like to stand, just stand, Juan'er, let's go have a cup of tea. ”

Xin Daiyi knew that Tong Fengyi was deliberately distracting Qiu Zeyuan's mind and preventing him from being immersed in his sister's affairs all the time, so he smiled, "Brother Fengyi, come and sit with us for a while." ”

Tong Fengyi glared at Qiu Zeyuan, but when he looked at Xin Daiyi, his eyes were already full of tenderness, and he smiled well.

After the three of them sat down, Tong Fengyi said to Xin Daiyi: "Xiao'er, my father was in a bad mood a few days ago, and he lost his demeanor when he spoke to you, so please bear with me." ”
