Chapter 542: Mother and Son
Watching that sword stabbed out, the cheers of all the former Qin people were held back in their throats.
But the next moment, Ying Xun's sword stopped in front of Ying Baoyue's throat.
"What's going on?" Everyone in the audience looked around in amazement.
Ying Xun's hand didn't move, and she quietly looked at the girl who didn't raise her sword to block it at all, but took out a small bamboo jar from her arms.
"What is this? Is it medicine? ”
"Sort of," Ying Baoyue looked at the bamboo jar in her hand that contained the pills that Li Ji had given her, poured out two and smiled, "I'm sorry to trouble you to wait for me, I'll finish it right away." ”
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ji Jiashu's pupils shrank on the high platform and his body moved slightly, Jiang Yuanyuan pulled him, he took a deep breath and suppressed the urge to stop the girl.
Although she didn't know what she was eating, Ji Jiashu always had an ominous premonition, and she was really afraid of something.
But he couldn't stop it.
However, the next moment, looking at the scene in front of her, Ji Jiashu's eyes were slightly stunned, because there was another person in the battle platform who stopped her.
Ying Baoyue was about to swallow the pill in her hand, but the person in front of her held her wrist.
She raised her head in a daze, only to see the eyebrows of the young man in front of her.
"Wait," Ying Xun held the sword in one hand and clenched the slender wrist in the other hand, "What kind of medicine is this?" Is it for internal injuries? ”
"Why don't you think I have internal injuries," Ying Baoyue smiled, "Pretty much." ”
But Ying Xun still didn't let go, staring at her eyes tightly, "Is this medicine harmful to your body?" ”
"If you don't eat too much, you should be fine," Ying Baoyue smiled, her eyes moved to the wrist that was grabbed by her and whispered, "Let me go." ”
"Do you have to eat it?" Ying Xun asked.
"If you don't eat, I don't have the confidence to beat you," Ying Baoyue said seriously, "Don't worry about me, let's just play fair." ”
"Fair play...... Ying Xun quietly stared into the eyes of the strange and familiar girl in front of him, and the next moment he let go of his hand and said softly, "You have changed a lot." ”
Ying Baoyue, who was about to take the pill in her hand, was stunned when she heard this, looked up at the half-familiar young man in front of her, paused and asked softly.
"What was I like before?"
"I don't actually remember, we had too little contact." Ying Xun stared at his titular cousin.
What was she like before? Ying Xun remembers that he hated her when he was a child, but now he finds that these memories are completely blurred.
It's only been more than a month of getting along, and the disgust for the girl's childhood has been completely diluted by her vivid appearance now, so diluted that I can't remember what she looked like before.
He knew her now.
"Really?" Ying Baoyue also stared at the young man in front of her quietly and smiled, "To be honest, I don't remember what you were like when you were a child." ”
What she remembers was when he was younger.
"Yes, we don't remember," Ying Xun clenched the sword in his hand, "After all, it's been seven years, and the world has changed." ”
Seven years ago, her brother ascended the throne, and he was forced to flee the former Qin, leaving his homeland and sending people to this day.
And seven years later, the girl was sent here as her brother's pawn to be slaughtered, and by the way, he was blocked.
He thought so.
That's how it should be.
Their position is incompatible.
Seeing Ying Xun raise his sword again, the former Qin people in the audience became excited again.
"It's finally time to start fighting, who will win?"
"It must be the eldest prince! As for whether the princess's life can be saved, it is another story...... Anyway, the man's sister is not worthy of pity......"
"Why bother to embarrass the eldest prince to attack his sister, this princess is too blind to see, hurry up and admit defeat!"
All kinds of shouts and persuasions in the audience were chaotic, everyone stared closely at the sword in Ying Xun's hand, and Ying Baoyue looked at the tail of the sword but was slightly stunned.
As the promoter of the former Qin family, Ying Xun's sword is a little ordinary, although it is a three-foot Qingfeng, it is not a famous sword, and its appearance is mediocre and dark. But it is such a sword, but the tail of the sword is decorated with a touch of bright red spikes, which adds a lot of color to this sword.
"This sword spike ......," Ying Baoyue looked at the somewhat faded but still bright red, and was slightly stunned.
"You say this? My mother made it up for me when I was a child. Ying Xun glanced at it and said lightly.
"Mother?" On the high platform, Jiang Yuanyuan frowned when he heard this, "Yingxun...... I remember that the eldest princess passed away when he was born, right? ”
"Oh, my birth mother died early, and I'm talking about my stepmother."
Looking at Ying Baoyue's slightly stunned gaze, Ying Xun spoke lightly.
Jiang Yuanyuan, who heard this sentence on the stage of "Ji ......", was also stunned, and only after reacting did he realize who Ying Xun was talking about, and Ji Jiashu was also a little surprised.
"Speaking of which......" Ji Jiashu took a deep breath, "That His Royal Highness the Young Master Commander does seem to have almost become the emperor's eldest concubine back then, and he is indeed the emperor's eldest grandson's ......."
It's just that this relationship is still a bit messy.
What's even more surprising is that Ying Xun would be willing to call that woman her mother.
"That's right, it turned out to be your mother," Ying Baoyue looked at the sword in Ying Xun's hand, looked at the red, her eyes were slightly condensed, and finally just closed her eyes and put the pill in her hand to her lips.
Ying Xun's sword in his hand was raised higher.
"It's going to start, it's going to begin!"
Everyone looked at this tense picture, knowing that the long-awaited picture was coming, watching the girl put the pill to her mouth, and Ji Jiashu's nails pierced into her palm.
"By the way, you're not married yet, are you?" At this moment, Ying Xun looked at Ying Baoyue and suddenly asked coldly.
"Huh?" The pill stopped at the mouth when the pill was interrupted, and Ying Baoyue looked at him and was stunned, "It's not that you are officially married......
She and Ji Jiashu are only engaged to get married, and only half of the three media and six hires have left, so it is indeed not considered to be married.
"Really? Let's go. Ying Xun said lightly, feeling his sword intent, everyone was stunned!
With his voice, the sword light flashed in front of everyone's eyes, and everyone's eyes widened, but the next moment.
The sword light flashed, and the bright red sword spike shook beside the hilt of the young man's sword.
With a bang, the sword in Ying Xun's hand was plunged into the ground.
Then he reached out and pulled Ying Baoyue into his arms.
……
……
"Winning ......"
Ying Baoyue, who has always been good at estimating opponents' movements, experienced the first time in her life that she was caught off guard, and the pill in her hand slipped instantly. The young man who had been watching to stab her with a sword fell to the ground, sat cross-legged on the ground, and then pulled her into his arms.
There was a dead silence.
Everyone was stunned.
It's hard to believe your eyes.
It's even harder to believe what you're seeing.
In the dead silence, only a round pill gurgled and rolled on the battle platform.
Ying Baoyue's eyes chased after the pill, but the next moment, a pair of hands blocked her eyes.
"This is ......," she turned her head to look at the boy who had pressed her to her lap, "what are you doing here?" ”
"Since you haven't married yet, let me be a brother again," Ying Xun said lightly.
"Okay, stop taking the medicine and go to sleep."
