Chapter 111: It's hard to help yourself

As soon as she entered the house, her parents were waiting for her to come back for dinner. Ah Chi couldn't support it anymore, so she threw herself into her mother's arms, and cried bitterly half-prostrately, she only felt that the illusion that she had had been a little bit of was gone to ashes at this time.

Gao Yue, as the supreme governor of Longxi, how could there be no beautiful women around him, even if the court did not reward him, how many high-ranking officials and nobles would rush to send beauties from all parties to the door. Sure enough, his reluctance to give a token is true, how could he put an ordinary woman like himself in his eyes!

"Mother, I didn't expect it, I shouldn't like him, I don't deserve it, woo woo......" In her mother's warm arms, Ah Chi cried for a while, and finally said the words from the bottom of her heart, she felt that a soul had been withdrawn from her body.

When Ah Chi's parents saw their daughter rushing into the house, they rushed over and cried without saying a word, thinking that she had encountered something wrong. When she was very nervous, she listened to herself intermittently talk about it, although she was slightly relieved in her heart, but when she thought that her daughter was a little involved with Longxi Taishou Gaoyue, her heart was tightened again.

"Ah Chi. It's not that my father said you, you are also smart and clever on weekdays, how can you be blindfolded in this kind of thing, and you inexplicably provoked that Gao Taishou! Who is he? Even our king has to take the initiative to come to him to form an alliance with the person, such a big person, is it a commoner woman from a small family who can get acquainted? Alas! ”

Ah Chi's father was a little hungry, but he lost his appetite all of a sudden. He was so heavy that he slammed his chopsticks on the table and said in a complaining tone.

When Ah Chi heard this, he stopped talking, and even cried loudly. Looking at her daughter's desperate and sad appearance, the mother's heart was about to break. She stroked Ah Chi's head in her arms over and over again, and said with a forced smile: "Child, your father spoke more directly, but he was not wrong. Such a Han official, where can we climb high, even if you think about him again, you have to force yourself to forget, otherwise you will always be sad yourself, okay? ”

Ah Chi nodded tremblingly, already crying uncontrollably. The father was upset, always afraid that his daughter would provoke such a big man, and whether it would bring any trouble to the family. But seeing that Ah Chi was sad like this, it was not good to blame him more.

My father stomped his feet and said, "I heard that most of these big officials, especially those of the Han people, are extravagant and shameless, and they have bad intentions in front of them and behind them. Don't say that you can't climb high, I'm afraid that you will fall in love with him, but he just treats you and treats you as a plaything, and forgets about it afterwards, and you will suffer a big loss when the time comes, my child! Alas. ”

Ah Chi was stunned, slowly straightened up from his mother's arms, and stopped crying, but his face was horribly pale. Seeing this, the mother felt both pity and fear in her heart, hugged Ah Chi tightly, couldn't care about it anymore, and hurriedly stopped her husband's outspokenness, "Don't say it!" Stop scaring the kids. ”

Ah Chi wiped her tears, feeling ashamed and sorry for herself in her heart, she didn't dare to look up at her parents, and said in a low voice: "Dad, mother." You're right, I know what to do, don't worry. ”

Seeing her say this, her mother was even more sad and shed tears. The father sighed heavily, and he didn't know what to say for a while, and the three of them took a few mouthfuls of rice sullenly, and hastily finished cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks.

But that's easier said than done. After lunch, Ah Chi hid in his boudoir and sat in a daze, unwilling to speak or move, just blindly thinking. Among them, there was the sister who knew Gao Yue's identity, and she came to Ah Chi in a frightened way, but it tugged at her sad heartstrings, so she didn't see anything.

The parents didn't say much anymore, they just hoped that Ah Chi would have a process of relaxation, and they wished that the Longxi Army would leave Xihe City tomorrow and never see each other again, and after some time, Ah Chi would finally recover from this innocent injury.

Nothing was said all night. On the second day, after Ah Chi got up, he was still sullen and uncomfortable. But she is well-behaved and sensible, and she doesn't want to make her parents uneasy because of her private affairs. Seeing that her father went to the bamboo forest before dawn as usual, she packed up the clothes in the bamboo basket after tidying up at home, and was not in the mood to greet her companions and sisters, so she opened the door and went out after saying hello to her mother.

The air outside the door was cold, and the sunlight was a little harsh. Standing outside the door, Ah Chi raised his head and squinted at the blue sky, took a deep breath, and his heart was much broader. When I was about to lift my feet, I felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, and when I looked closely, not far away, a familiar figure, still as calm and chic as when we first met, leading a red horse, was striding towards her.

"Ahh

Ah Chi exclaimed, and the bamboo basket in his hand fell to the ground. The mother in the house probably heard the movement, and called out suspiciously: "Ah Chi, what's wrong?" ”

"No, it's nothing, the bamboo basket hit, it overturned." Ah Chi hurriedly picked up the bamboo basket, hugged it to his chest, and clutched it tightly.

The neighbors closed their doors and windows at this time, and no one even appeared on the street. As he approached, he stood with his hands in his hands, bowing his head and looking at her quietly. The warm breath brushed the forehead, and the skin was warm and itchy. Ah Chi raised her pale face and looked back at those bright eyes, and she burst into tears.

"I'm here to tell you that I'm going back to Longxi tomorrow." Gao Yue wanted to raise his hand to wipe away his tears for Ah Chi, but after all, he held back and said softly.

Ah Chi's face turned even paler, and he choked up in a low voice, "You go." It's my own fault, I can't climb you, I ......"

She shrank and shivered in the winter morning sun, and the pear blossoms brought rain.

Gao Yue's heart was faintly blocked, and it was a little painful. A stream of hot blood rushed into his brain, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he took the bamboo basket and put it on the ground, holding Ah Chi's wrist, Ah Chi was like a frightened deer, wanting to break away, but he couldn't do it.

"Where's your bracelet?" Gao Yue saw that above the plain hand, Ruxue Hao's wrist was empty, so he asked.

"Ask what this is for." In the midst of the sobbing, the echo was only like the sound of mosquitoes.

"Before I leave, I'm going to get what belongs to me back." The resounding reply reached Ah Chi's ears, and she raised her head suddenly.

After a moment of silence, Ah Chi bit his lip, and said with teary eyes: "I gave the bracelet to someone else." I am the daughter of a small family, and I am not worthy of a big official like you. Please, let me go, I didn't know your identity before, I shouldn't have provoked you......" Ah Chi said as he sobbed lowly, so much so that he couldn't hold it anymore.

"Even if it's for the emperor, I have to come back!"

Gao Yue was so anxious that he couldn't take care of it anymore, so he stepped forward and picked up Ah Chi, ignored her exclamations, put her on the horse, and turned over himself, and got on the horse like a light swallow. Gao Yue took the reins, and the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the distance, echoing on the bluestone street.

The door creaked, and Ah Chi's mother seemed to hear her daughter's voice, so she stuck out her head in confusion and looked left and right, without a trace of abnormality. Just when she was inexplicable, she suddenly found the bamboo basket on the ground, and Ah Chi was gone, and immediately screamed in fright. An informed neighbor who didn't dare to go out and only secretly watched at home came over to say that Ah Chi's mother knew what had happened, and her heart fell like a big stone, and she was busy asking someone to go to the bamboo forest to retrieve her husband.

Between the horse's hooves leaping, the wind whistling in the ears makes people feel cool. was brought out by Gao Yue for no reason, Ah Chi didn't feel scared in his heart, and there was even a trace of joy. Although he didn't know where he was going to take him, he would definitely not harm himself, Ah Chi shouted loudly in an extremely determined voice in his heart.

In just a moment, Gao Yue rode his horse to the south gate. He threw off the reins and hugged Ah Chi gently. Looking at Ah Chi's blushing but inexplicably dazed face, Gao Yue smiled mysteriously and pulled Ah Chi up to the city tower.

The castle tower was deserted. Gao Yue took Ah Chi to the city wall. Looking up, under the vast blue sky, more than a dozen banners hunting and flying, there is an army composed of countless majestic soldiers, criss-crossing and orderly, fully armed and standing quietly and solemnly under the city, the iron armor on the body reflects the brilliant and dazzling sun.

At the head there was a burly bearded general, sitting proudly on the horse. Seeing Gao Yue ascend the tower, the officer jumped off his horse, drew his sword, pointed straight to the sky, and then led all the soldiers to bow to the ground, like a wave, and shouted in unison: "Meet the general!" ”

This sound, like a torrent of waves, rolled towards the city in an instant, and the mountains swept like a tsunami, high-pitched and agitated, deafening. This momentum, majestic and unstoppable, seems to destroy everything.

Ah Chi grew up in a peasant family, when he had seen such a magnificent scene, he clung to the city bricks in horror, his face was timid, and he turned his head to look at Gao Yue uneasily and confusedly.

Gao Yue's eyes were blazing and said: "I have always made a clear distinction between public and private, but today, for you, I am willing to pretend to be public and private." He pointed to the army under the city, "You see, these warriors are my reliance on my life and even in the north and south, and they are my incomparably precious treasures. As long as you want, from now on, I am willing to have them with you and share them. ”

Gao Yue took a deep breath, stared at Ah Chi tightly, and said loudly, "You once blamed me for not having a token for you. I, Gao Yue, am I a man who uses gold and jade vulgar things to express his sincerity? Ah Chi, this mighty army, will work with me to protect you forever. This is my token for you! ”

Ah Chi clearly felt the blood in his whole body surging up one by one, and he only felt that he couldn't breathe through it. Her chest slumped together, her clear and crystal-like eyes were misty, staring at Gao Yue tightly, and after a while, tears burst out of her eyes.

"Ever since I saw you, I have you in my heart before I know it. After knowing who you are, even if you are afraid of regret, I will never forget you for a moment. I often tell myself that I'm crazy and obsessed, but I'd rather be really crazy than never see you again, I'm so afraid of losing you......"

Ah Chi threw himself into Gao Yue's arms, crying as he spoke, pouring out the torment and grievances of many days. She wrapped her arms around Gao Yue's waist tightly, as if she was out of control, and she was venting to her heart's content, and Gao Yue's front was soaked in a short time.
