"The wound on my neck hurts!" I didn't deliberately pretend that the pain was unbearable, because when he hurt me, I didn't take the opportunity to make him feel guilty for hurting me. Maybe my expression was a little more aggrieved and pitiful at that time, and it didn't make him feel guilty, but it would make him disgusted. But I just had a feeling that he didn't want to kill me, and as we talked more and more, this feeling became more and more intense, especially when he finally said "can't", I saw a trace of reluctance in his dark eyes. It also gave me the courage to test his attitude towards me.

Sure enough, he hesitated for a moment, put down the long sword in his hand, took out a bottle of wound medicine from his arms, poured it on his fingertips, and carefully wiped it on my wound. I took another plain sticker and carefully wiped away the blood that had seeped from the wound. But the blood was oozing a little too much, and it was all running down the neck and under the collarbone. Xuanyuan Lie couldn't pull off his clothes to wipe them, his hands froze there, and his face was quite embarrassed.

"Can you help me untie the rope from my hand?" I said, "The following, I'll wipe it myself." ”

"Oh!" He actually agreed!

I cheered inwardly, but on the surface I tried to refrain from it, only smiled at him, and let him wrap his hands around me behind me to untie the hemp rope that bound my hands. He was so close to me, so close that they were almost close together. I rested my head on his shoulder, just lightly.

Until I felt that he had untied the rope, my lips were close to his ear, and I whispered, "Xuanyuan Lie, thank you!" Finally free, his hands wrapped around his waist and hugged him tightly.

His heart was beating faster, and his hands were still in the same position they had just been, but they didn't hug me or spread me apart. I smiled slyly, looked up at Mo Qian, who was already standing behind him, and said, "Don't hurt him!" ”

"What are you talking about......" Before Xuanyuan Lie's words were finished, Mo Qian sealed the big hole, and his body stiffened and lay on my body.

Mo Qian stepped forward and pushed aside the tall body that was about to overwhelm me. Help me untie the rope on my feet and help me stand up, but because I have been tied for too long, my feet have long been unconscious, and I suddenly fall back to the ground.

"It hurts!" Because Mo Qian, like Yun Cheng, is the person I am most familiar with and the most assured. So in front of him, I never hid, let alone pretended, I laughed when I was happy, and screamed when I was in pain: it hurt so much, and I didn't have to hold back my tears.

"You lighten it, it hurts!" Then he sobbed his snot and tears against his bewitching peach-colored robe, and didn't have to worry that he would dodge it with a disgusted face like Xiao Ye, and laugh at me a few more words by the way.

Mo Qian glanced at Xuanyuan Lie and asked me, "It's more painful than his sword wound?" ”

"The sword wound hurts a little more." I'll be honest with you.

Xuanyuan Lie's originally dark eyes turned blood-red, and his sharp eyes wanted to break my body into pieces, he eyelid me and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "He is also your concubine?" ”

Mo Qian shouted: "Don't be unreasonable!" ”

"Xuanyuan Lie," I carefully propped up his head, removed a gold brick from his neck, and lowered him flat on the ground, "I'm sorry I lied to you. But I won't hurt you, just like you won't kill me. ”

Xuanyuan Lie still stared at me, and said fiercely: "This is the last time I will let you go!" ”

I didn't get angry and told him, "If there is a next time, I still won't hurt you." "You let me go four times, at least these four times, and I will give it back to you.

Mo Qian whispered in my ear, "Lord, it's time to go." ”

I was embarrassed and said, "I...... The leg is numb. ”

Mo Qian bent down and carefully picked me up from the ground.

"Wait a minute!" I turned my head from Mo Qian's arms to look at Xuanyuan Lie: "Can you tell me who is behind that piece?" ”

"Don't think!" After saying that, Xuanyuan Lie closed his eyes and twisted his head to the other side.

"It's okay." I still smiled at him: "If you want to tell me, come to the East Palace to find me." ”

Mo Qian said that those who came with him to save me were the martial arts masters he hired for 100,000 taels of gold. I asked him for the 5.9 million taels he had saved, and his distressed face turned green, and in the end he was unwilling and reluctant to hand over the thick stack of silver tickets to me.

I carefully put the silver ticket into my arms, feeling that this time I was captured, not only gained some clues about the killing of the Northern Desert Mission, but also got enough silver tickets to support a year's military expenses, which can be said to be more beneficial than disadvantageous. If this kind of thing happens several times a year under the guarantee that I will not die, I will make a fortune, and at that time, I will be exempted from all taxes in Tianyu Country, so that the people of Tianyu Country can become rich faster.

Out of that yard, there were already comfortable horses prepared outside. Mo Qian helped me into the carriage and went outside to catch the car, just when I was about to fall asleep in a daze, I heard him suddenly say: "Lord, why are you hugging that Xuanyuan Lie?" ”

"Didn't you tell me to hold him?" In fact, as early as when Xuanyuan Lie helped me with the medicine on my wound, Mo Qian had already stood behind him silently, and made a hugging gesture to me, and pointed at Xuanyuan Lie. I immediately understood that he asked me to hold Xuanyuan Lie, and he could restrain him.

"How could a subordinate let the Lord do such a thing?" Mo Qian was silent for a while, and seemed to have guessed the source of this misunderstanding, and explained to me: "My subordinates wanted to tell the Lord that it had been surrounded, and if you got rid of Xuanyuan Lie, you would be safe." ”

"Huh?" I was stunned for a moment: "Then what do you mean by putting your head on the back of your hands and making a sleeping position at the end?" "I thought he wanted me to * Xuanyuan Lie, wait for him to fall asleep Mo Qian before making a move! Thankfully, I didn't, otherwise, it would have been a big mess.

Mo Qian explained: "The subordinates used the incense to stun the other people here, and they all fell asleep!" ”

I sighed, "Hey! The two of us didn't get along to this extent. ”

Mo Qian's voice was sour: "Yes!" There is no tacit understanding between subordinates and the master! But that Xuanyuan Lie and the Lord seem to have a tacit understanding! As soon as the Lord cried out in pain, he nervously hurried to give you medicine, what a heart! ”

"He's in love with me!" I probably felt it from the moment he cut my skin with his sword. At that time, he was going to take my life, but in the end he still couldn't do it, I said that it hurt, he treated my wounds, when he gave me the rope, we were so close, I heard him have a strong heartbeat faster and faster, until he asked Mo Qian if it was my concubine, I was already sure that he was eating mash, he was in love with me.

"The Lord actually saw it!" Mo Qian's tone couldn't tell whether it was praise or mockery.

"Such a man who has a family enmity with me and a hatred of the country, and whose heart is as hard as steel, can be as gentle as a man. If not in love with me, what else could it be? ”

"Isn't the Lord afraid that Xuanyuan Lie is greedy for your beauty?"

Without thinking, I retorted: "You think all the men in the world are just like you!" ”

"Is it true that in the eyes of the Lord, there is no sincerity among subordinates?" These words and the cool breeze of early autumn drifted into my ears, and there was a trace of resentment and sadness in the questioning, but I didn't know how to reply to him.

After a long while, I heard Mo Qian's voice again: "Since the Lord knows that Xuanyuan Lie has feelings for you, why do you still use his feelings to deceive him?" ”

"He didn't want to kill me, and his father forced him to kill me. Wouldn't it be nice if I did this, even if he gave an account to his father and saved my life? ”

"Has the Lord considered Xuanyuan Lie's feelings, why do you have to use this method? Or is the heart of the Lord made of stone at all, and he can't feel the distress of others? That's why they trample on other people's feelings casually. ”

"I'm not!"

"So you're kidding him? Deliberately seducing him into being emotionally attracted to you. ”

"I didn't!"

Mo Qian asked me louder, "Then why are you so close to him?" Isn't the Lord the most hated stranger approaching? Why deign to take the initiative to hug him? ”

I was so angry at his accusation that I yelled back: "I already said, I misunderstood your gesture, that's why I did that!" I also want to ask you, why didn't you stop me when I did that stupid thing? ”

"Who can force you to do what the Lord doesn't want to do? And what does the Lord do, do his subordinates have the power to stop it? This is the first time Mo Qian has spoken to me in such a strong tone, and in my memory, it seems that no one has dared to speak to me like this for a long time. I feel so unaccustomed to it, these things are wrong with me, but I feel very wronged in my heart.

"I really don't hate his closeness. That's why when you mistakenly think you're holding him, you do it. "I've been a loner since I was a kid and almost rejected the proximity of everyone but my mother, and I even felt that I hated everyone but my mother. Even when Chen Rui approached me, I couldn't help but feel like I wanted to dodge, and sometimes I felt nauseous.

Coming here, it seems that there are more and more people I don't exclude, Yun Cheng, Mu Yu, Xiao Ye, Mo Qian, Xiao Qingyu...... Many people, even those who used to think that were very ambiguous and intimate, now feel natural and open.

Regarding love, I used to think that living with someone I didn't hate, hugging, kissing, and sleeping was love. Later, I felt that love must prove its existence with vigor. But I didn't expect that after experiencing a vigorous and earth-shattering love with Hu Yanzhuo, I still couldn't be together.

Actually, I don't know when I fell in love with Hu Yanzhuo, and we didn't have too much earth-shattering and vigorous at the beginning. I didn't even have the consciousness to be in love. Even our first kiss happened when I was drunk and unconscious, and I was only sure that I didn't hate him.

However, the moment we looked at each other and smiled, I saw the tenderness in his eyes, and when we were playing around, I fell in love with the doting in his eyes, and when he said he liked me, I had decided to marry him. At that time, I often felt that before we even started, we had already made a private agreement for life.

I often wonder if I really had a throbbing with Hu Yanzhuo, or if I fell in love with him because I knew he loved me. I'm even wondering, do I really love Huyanzhuo? Still, I just love the feeling of being spoiled by him. It was a feeling that addicted me, and even when he wasn't around me, I would instinctively look for it in other people. But I was afraid that I would accidentally pluck the other party's heartstrings, and I was afraid that the other party would fall in love with me.

Perhaps, I never knew what I was thinking and wanting. What I'm afraid of is not that the other person is in love with me, my subconscious even wants all the people I don't exclude to love me wholeheartedly, spoil me and be good to me, what I'm really afraid of is that the other person asks me to fall in love with him as well.

The premise of not hating just falling in love with someone, maybe I'm mature, maybe I'm more selfish, or maybe Xuanyuan Lie is not good enough to impress me like Hu Yanzhuo, but at least now, I don't love him and I don't hate him.
