The celebration banquet in the camp has begun, first to comfort the dead heroes in the hunting ground, and then to sing and dance, compete and fight, the same, very boring but not able to take the first step.

"Qiu Aiqing, you have repeatedly established miraculous feats for my Shuo Chu, and you can be described as my Shuo Chu's minister of humerus." After three rounds of drinking, singing and dancing, Hongxia Zuofeng took the lead in speaking, "But you are such an excellent courtier, there is no one in the house to serve, I am very worried about you!" ”

"Thank you for the emperor's concern, the minister is a martial artist, he is used to sleeping in the open air, and he can live comfortably without being served." Qiu Chulin said.

The emperor's intention is obvious, this is to bring up the old matter again and give him a marriage.

"What Aiqing said is bad, the big husband is based on the world is to make contributions and glorify the lintel. Now that Aiqing has made contributions to the country and has achieved success, if she can marry a woman with both ability and political integrity and beauty as a wife, wouldn't she envy others and have no regrets. Hongxia Zuofeng said, "Today, there is the county lord of Ziyue, who is skillful and generous, gentle and generous, and has outstanding appearance, and Qiu Aiqing can be called made in heaven. I will be the master today and give you two a marriage, how about the beauty of adulthood? ”

"How can the minister be virtuous, the emperor is worried about the minister's family affairs." Qiu Chulin replied neither humbly nor arrogantly, "The minister only wants to be loyal to the country, and he doesn't plan to consider marrying a wife for the time being, and I hope that the emperor can understand the minister's red blood." ”

Qiu Chulin prevaricated him with the excuse of serving the country and being loyal, Hongxia Zuofeng couldn't go on on this topic, did he let him say to his courtiers that he didn't have to serve the country and be loyal to marry the county lord?

So Hongxia Zuofeng changed his way of thinking and saved the country, "Aiqing doesn't want to marry the county lord as his wife, but is it because he already has a sweetheart?" ”

"The emperor knows it, since the emperor knows it, it is inconvenient for the ministers to hide it." Qiu Chulin thought for a moment and said, "She is the love of the minister's life, and the minister will not marry her in this life, and she will only marry her." ”

"It's just a mountain girl, if Aiqing likes it, she can be accepted as a concubine." Hongxia Zuofeng said, "Ziyue girl is both talented and beautiful, and can be good at writing and martial arts, but she is a rare strange woman at that time, and she is the best match for Aiqing......"

"Your Majesty, the twisted melon is not sweet, since the children have their own ideas, let's go with them." Yan Qiyang spoke at the right time and made the final decision.

"Your Majesty, the general has just come out of the hunting ground, presumably he must be tired at this time, or let the general rest and rest, and the matter of marriage can be discussed on the Golden Palace another day." The old prime minister got up and agreed.

"The minister thinks that the emperor doesn't have to worry about the general's marriage, the general is so good, naturally there is no shortage of admiration from his daughter's family, as long as the general is willing, he can get married at any time." Another minister chimed in.

But after a while, several ministers got up and agreed, Hongxia Zuofeng's face was pale, and the marriage was finally over.

This is the court of Shuochu, the regent easily does not open his mouth, and if he opens his mouth, he will succeed; If you don't do it easily, if you do it, you will have no possibility of turning over.

The banquet was in full swing, and the officials praised and flattered each other, so it was not lively.

But Qiu Chulin had no intention of entertaining, and since the regent withdrew halfway, he became more and more uneasy in his heart.

Finally managed to get to the end of the banquet, Qiu Chulin returned to his heart like an arrow, returned to the camp tent and gave a few words, and immediately took the horses and left the camp alone.

"General!" Qiu Xiyang was hijacked by someone, so he had to walk here, he knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty, panting, "The girl was robbed!" ”

"Can you see who is coming?" Qiu Chulin frowned slightly, and a guess instantly appeared in his mind.

"Although the man is masked, his subordinates know his tricks, and his subordinates must be ......" Qiu Xiyang paused, he looked up at Qiu Chulin, and said with great certainty, "It's the regent's entourage, the sword minister." And half an hour ago, his subordinates encountered the regent's carriage back to the city on the road, and in order not to cause trouble, his subordinates avoided it from a distance. ”

"Well, go and lead a fast horse, and follow me back to the city as quickly as possible." After Qiu Chulin finished speaking, he took the lead in getting on the horse and galloping away.

Little by little, Lime regained consciousness, and Lime only felt a dull pain in the back of her neck, while her head felt as heavy and swollen as if it had been filled with lead.

She slowly opened her eyes, looked left and right, everything in her eyes was more familiar, not much changed from a year ago, this was Yan Qiyang's study.

She was sealed and tied to a chair. Her body was weak and weak, and the wound on her arm had only been roughly bandaged and had not been treated, but fortunately, she had stopped the bleeding and not lost too much blood.

Now she can't do anything, she can only close her eyes and recuperate, waiting for Yan Qiyang to come to see her, and at the same time try to impact the acupuncture points and unseal the internal force.

Not long after, the door of the study was opened, and a gust of evening breeze blew into the door along with Yan Qiyang, blowing on the wound of the lime, causing another throbbing pain in the arm.

Lime opened her eyes, Yan Qiyang stood with her hands in his hands, and looked at her condescendingly, "Your father is in my hands, you still dare to play tricks?" ”

"How can you make a deal with the prince and not leave yourself a way out?" Lime laughed.

Yan Qiyang's face sank, "The one-year period has arrived, what do I want?" ”

"Since it is a transaction, the prince needs to show sincerity, release my father first, and I will give what the prince wants." Lime Road.

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with this king." Yan Qiyang said coldly, "Lin'er has abandoned you, and you have no way out." ”

"Does the prince want to bluff me?" Lime smiled, "Childe, he can't abandon me." ”

"You betrayed him, how could he keep you?" Strictly abandon the yang road.

Lime's face was slightly stunned when she heard this, but after only a moment, her expression returned to normal, "No, Childe will not abandon me." If Gongzi really abandons me, I won't be alive now, and I won't be able to see you, Lord Wang. ”

"This king once asked him for you and sent you, but it was just a favor." Yan Qiyang said, "You are already an outcast, think about how to cooperate with this king and save your life." ”

Lime was silent for a long time when she heard this, she lowered her head, and her eyes couldn't hide the panic.

Yan Qiyang saw that she was shaken, leaned down, and struck while the iron was hot, "Lin'er, he can't bear to betray his person the most, he won't kill you, it's already a blessing for you." Now you have to cooperate with this king to save your life and that of your father. ”

"What if he abandons me?" Lime raised her head and stretched her eyebrows, "The 'Phoenix' is still in my hand." ”

"This king has just been idle and has gone to the dungeon." Yan Qiyang handed the soft whip in his hand to Lime, and there was a bit of violence hidden in his flat tone, "By the way, look at your father." ”

It was the whip hanging in front of the door of his father's prison, and it was a soft whip specially used by Yan Qiyang to whip his father!

The fine lines on the handle of the soft whip had been smoothed out, and the rope was covered with deep and shallow traces of blood, one of which was particularly conspicuous.

Xiu's eyebrows were frowned, tears lingered in the corners of her eyes, and she resisted to let the tears fall.

Lime raised her head and looked at Yan Qiyang's eyes full of hatred.

"You can't fight this king." Yan Qiyang spoke, causing Lime's last defense to crumble, "Playing tricks with this king will only make your father suffer a lot." ”

After a long time, Lime's trembling body gradually regained its calmness, Qiu Chulin abandoned her, and she had no way out, "You just mentioned cooperation. ”

"You should have done it a long time ago." Yan Qiyang smiled, "This king asked you, what about the folding fan?" ”

"It has been presented to Qiu Chulin as a gift to express sincerity when I first met." Lime Road.

"What's the deal between you and Lin'er?" Yan Qiyang's eyes became very sharp, but he still maintained a gentle tone.

"He helped me rescue my father, and I helped him fulfill his wish." Lime said.

"What wish?" Yan Qiyang suddenly frowned, and his tone became much harder, "He has worshiped this king as his father-in-law for so many years, and this king still doesn't know that he still has a wish that has not been fulfilled. ”

"I don't know, he never told me. He only said that the time had not yet come, and when the time came, he would naturally tell me. Lime shook her head, then said uncertainly, "I only vaguely feel that this wish is very important to him, as if it is related to his background. ”

Yan Qiyang's face instantly became extremely gloomy, and his hand holding the cup tightened unconsciously, and his usual gentle disguise seemed to be about to collapse.

But after a moment, he suddenly chuckled, "How do you prove that what you say is worthy of the king's belief?" ”

"Lord Wang!" Suddenly, a slightly hurried voice came from outside the study, "The general asks to see!" ”

"You're bluffing me!" She frowned and shouted angrily, but it was already too late, and she couldn't regret it, "Childe didn't abandon me at all!" ”

"Tea in the front hall!" Yan Qiyang said, and then he looked at Lime, the old treacherous cunning was vividly reflected in him, "It's not too late to figure it out now, but you just betrayed him again, do you think he will allow you this time?" ”

Lime looked at him, her eyes were full of anger and remorse, she gritted her teeth, but she couldn't say a word, and now there was only one way in front of her, "How do you want to cooperate?" ”

"It's smart enough to know what the king wants." Yan Qiyang said with a smile, "This king asked him to take you away, after you go back, take good care of him for this king, and report to me every move." ”

"Okay, I promise you. But he must be wary of me, and I'm not sure I'll find out anything useful. Lime asked.

"Then find a way, unscrupulous means, no matter what the process is, this king only needs the result." Yan Qiyang said, "As for your father, when this king is satisfied, he will naturally be released." ”

"General, you can't go in!" Outside the study, the sword minister saw Qiu Chulin coming in a hurry, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Get out of here!" Qiu Chulin pushed him away with a palm and said sharply.

His pace quickened a little, and he came to the door of the study, and without the slightest hesitation, he pushed the door in.

Yan Qiyang's hand slowly withdrew from the placket of the lime shirt and put it behind his back, he straightened up, looked at Qiu Chulin at the door, and the gloom in his eyes was even worse, "For a woman, do you ignore the rules?" Do you still have this king in your eyes? ”

"The father-in-law forgives the sin, and the child is anxious for a while, and he messes up the rules." Qiu Chulin saw the scene in his eyes, and although he was angry in his heart, he couldn't attack it, so he had to give up his hand and say, "The child doesn't understand what the father-in-law means?" If Lime offends his father-in-law, please calm his anger and leave it to the child. ”

"After all, it's someone from your house, since Lin'er has opened his mouth, it's not easy for this king to force this slave to stay." Yan Qiyang said, "This slave is arrogant, Lin'er still needs to be disciplined more, don't let her get into trouble in the future and can't end it." ”

"Thank you, father-in-law." Qiu Chulin bowed deeply, "The child will discipline well according to the will of his father-in-law." ”
