When Xiao Yi woke up, he smelled a burst of fruity fragrance, which was very fresh. She sat up and saw a woman chopping melons. The woman was petite, richly dressed, and elegantly behaved, about the same age as herself, and she smiled sweetly, as if she was immersed in some sweet thought. The woman heard the movement and walked over. Xiao Yi saw her eyebrows clearly, gentle and beautiful, and her appearance was kind. The woman said, "Are you awake?" I am Lin Long, and I am from Chu like your friend. Are you also from Chu? ”

Xiao Yi shook his head and said, "I...... I'm ......."

A man walked over and answered: "She is my person, and naturally she is also from the Chu State." ”

Xiao Yi looked at Zhuge Escape with a dumbfounded gaze, it was indeed a Chu State costume with wide robes and big sleeves. "Zhuge ? Why are you here? ”

Zhuge came over to check her pulse and said, "I came here to find you." You fainted last night, I need a place to treat you, and now that you're resting, let's go right away. ”

Xiao Yi looked at him blankly.

Zhuge said to Lin Long: "Ninth Princess, this is my fiancée Liu'er, we have been engaged since childhood, but then we got separated, I inquired in many ways, only to find out that she was sold to the Song Kingdom as a slave, I searched all the way, but I didn't expect to meet her as soon as I entered this White Jade Palace last night." It turns out that the slavery life of the Song Kingdom is not easy to do, and it actually makes life tired, thanks to you for letting us stay overnight last night, otherwise I am really afraid of alarming the guards. ”

Lin Long said with a smile: "Zhuge you are polite, we are old acquaintances in Chu State. Although you didn't come to see me, you can still come to me for help when you are in trouble, and I will definitely do my best to help. Don't worry, if King Song doesn't put me in his eyes, no one in the White Jade Palace will stare at me, and all my subordinates here are brought from the Chu State to marry, and they won't leak half a word. ”

Zhuge said: "Thank you princess for your help, if you need me in the future, just ask." ”

Lin Long said: "Naturally, I won't be polite to you. You Zhuge family don't know how much benefit you have taken from my father to do a great job, and if you want to come to the rich and rival country, you will simply buy the Zhao country, how good it is to be the king of the country yourself, and save yourself from sending people under the fence. ”

Zhuge said with a smile: "The princess said that she was joking, although Zhao Guo was poor, he was left and right between Song and Chen, if you want to buy it, I will buy a good location, don't want this hot potato." ”

Xiao Yiqi said: "You know each other in Chu State? Are you the ninth princess of Chu and the Lin beauty of King Song? ”

Lin Long said: "We have known each other since we were children, the Zhuge family is a big businessman in the Chu State, and the Zhuge son is more famous in the Chu State than my useless brothers and brothers!" The father was jealous of the Zhuge family's property, although he was not a relative of the emperor, but he was treated like a vassal king, and every time there was a state banquet and family banquet, he would send an invitation to the Zhuge family. When I married Song Guo, Mr. Zhuge also gave me this pair of rare rainbow bead earrings. Lin Long gently flicked the pearls hanging on his ears with his hands, and the white pearls were mixed with seven colors, hence the name Rainbow Beads. Xiao Yi heard Aunt Su talk about rainbow beads in the Fanjing Dance Hall, which is said to be worth a lot of money, even if you can't buy a city, at least you can exchange it for 100 acres of fertile land. Lin Long's skin is better than snow, and it is lined with rainbow beads. Xiao Yi knew that Zhuge of Chu was rich and rivaled the country, but he didn't know that Mr. Zhuge could make such a generous move.

Zhuge Escape explained to Xiao Yi: "Speaking of my father-in-law, he is not generous to everyone. Xiao Yi knew that although the Zhuge family of Chu State was rich and rivaled the country, the family property had never been passed on. The heirs of the Zhuge clan will change their names and surnames, never engage in business, and do not take over the family business, so as not to compete for family property. Zhuge is not the biological son of Mr. Zhuge Lao, but has been cultivated as the next head of the family business since he was a child. Zhuge Trace continued: "You definitely don't know one thing, because this matter, only four people in the five countries of Kyushu know. ”

Lin Long blushed and smiled, "Speaking of which, I do need your help with something." ”

Zhuge said: "I have already seen the East. Naturally, I'll help with your business. Now there are many people in the Song Palace, so I'll take Liu Er out first, and when we settle down, I'll come to you and Dongfang again. ”

Lin Long said: "Naturally, you go first. I can't hide two big living people here for a few days. I will go out to the front hall first, and you have not seen you for a long time, and you must have much to say. She patted Xiao Yi's hand and said, "Liu'er, you are a blessed girl." Zhuge is a rare good person, if you can go far away with him, why be trapped in a place of right and wrong. Lin Long didn't say much and asked, got up and walked out of the house.

Xiao Yi bowed her head and was silent, she didn't expect to meet Zhuge in this life. In the early spring, Chen Guofanjing said goodbye, he folded the willow and sent it away, and the willow branch was still new green. Now in late autumn, everything is depressed, just like her shameless life facing her old acquaintances, it should also be a time to wither.

Zhuge said softly: "Liu Yuan, I actually knew in my heart that you were Xiao Yi of the Qi Kingdom, so although I tried to persuade you to go to the Chu State with me several times, I never stopped your dream and mission of going to the Song Kingdom for revenge. Fanjing parted, you said that if you can escape from the White Jade Palace alive, you will definitely go to the Chu State to find me. But before I got up and went back to Chu, I heard about your arrest of the King of Song at the state banquet in Kyushu. This incident moved Chen Guo's national capital. You even dare to deceive King Chen, no matter whether your assassination is successful or not, the Liangzi between Chen and Song will be concluded, even if you escape from the Song Kingdom, there will be pursuers from Chen and Song in various countries looking for your whereabouts. I didn't say it at the beginning, because I thought that with your martial arts and intelligence, the White Jade Palace would definitely not be able to trap you, as long as you enter the territory of Chu State, I will be able to protect you without worry, and on my way back to Chu State, I will definitely come to Song State to meet you. But who knew that you would do it at the state banquet in Kyushu, and threaten to be the princess of Qi and put yourself in this dead end. You never thought about seeing me again at parting, did you? ”

Xiao Yi said: "Zhuge , you and I are different, you are a rich and noble person in Chu State, I am a down-and-out daughter of the dead country, we are not all the way, so why should we be involved?" I have my blood feud, you have your rich country, I know your affection for me, but I am not qualified to accept it, and you do not need to bear my past with me. ”

Zhuge sighed: "Xiao Yi, this sentence was originally meant to you, I have never told you my life experience, just like you have never told me your life experience, because I don't want you to bear my blood feud with me." Don't you ask me how I found out early on that you were the princess of Qi Kingdom? Even Li Chen, your backer who has been friends in Chen Guo for many years, doesn't know, how can I know? Why did I stay in Fanjing for so long? My father-in-law wrote several times to urge me to return to Chu, but I refused to leave, and he thought that I was addicted to the Hualiu Lane in Fanjing, but I didn't even have the courage to tell you who I was, and I have been playing the noble son of the night song by your side. In your heart, I may not even have the weight of Li Chen. ”

Xiao Yi smiled bitterly: "Zhuge , I haven't compared you with Li Chen. I took advantage of him, I used him for years, and I felt a lot of guilt about him. As for you, I have never taken advantage of you, nor have I ever wanted to be involved with you, I am above board and indebted to you. ”

Zhuge shook his head and said, "You owe me, if you know who I am." ”

Xiao Yi looked at him puzzled.

Zhuge escaped and said: "Do you still remember that north of the Qi Kingdom, there was a Wei Guo, and there was a prince in the Wei Kingdom, and he had a marriage contract with the princess of Qi with a national certificate as evidence?" ”

Xiao Yi was stunned. Childhood memories poured out......

The boy smiled and said, "I heard that Princess Yi of Qi Country is talented and beautiful, but I didn't expect it to be you!" ”

The girl snorted: "I heard that the prince of the country is seven feet long and mighty, but I didn't expect it to be you, a dwarf winter melon!" ”

In the palace of Ningguo, Prince Wei gave his precious King Kong small jade sword to the princess of Qi as a wedding gift, and she pouted and refused to accept it, saying that I should not be your concubine of this dwarf winter melon. He smiled and plunged the little jade sword into her fleshy bun.

The years were merciless, and a year later, the little princess of Qi heard that Wei Guo was destroyed and the prince of Wei Guo was beheaded by the rebel army. She hid in her room and wept, holding the small jade sword hairpin he gave her. She actually treasured this hairpin and wore it in her bun all the time, because it was the first time she met the patriots and the first time she received the patriot gifts from the patriots. This gift is different from other gifts, it is a very delicate and beautiful but very sharp jewelry. And the person who gave her the gift was her husband who she was going to marry in the future. She also looked at Xiao Yujian and recalled the situation when she bumped into Prince Wei that day. He didn't seem to be short, not as tall as his father, but he was a cut taller than himself. He had a bright smile and a smile in his eyes. Many years had passed, and she had forgotten what the little boy had played with her and what he had said that day, except that he loved to laugh, and that his smile was as warm as the winter sun. She once thought that her husband should be such a warm person. For example, the smile of Liu Ying, the king of Song, is always full of tolerance and warmth......

Zhuge Escape slowly took the small jade sword from Xiao Yi's bun. It was the engagement gift he gave her more than ten years ago, and it was the weapon she used to assassinate King Song more than ten years later.

"On the upper floor of the old city of Fanjing, I stroke the qin, and you dance. This engraved plum ink hosta slipped from your bun and into my arms. This is the diamond jade of the country, such a complete diamond jade is carved into such a small sharp weapon, the whole country, this is the only one, is a gift to me when my father appointed me as the prince of the country, I can't put it down, wear it for many years, how can I not recognize it? And how can you not remember who I gave it to? Zhuge played with the little jade sword and said slowly: "Xiao Yi, I once thought that the hatred in my life was to see my father killed by the Song army and I had to escape. I have traveled all over the world, swallowing my anger, unable to survive or die. Later, my father-in-law adopted me and asked me to change my name and surname, I thought that I would have these two hatreds in my life, and I would have to live incognito after witnessing the collapse of the country and the collapse of the family. Later, the hatred slowly increased. Seeing that the people of the Song Kingdom could not be killed, seeing that the people of the country could not be recognized, learning business from their father-in-law, and seeing that the dog officials had to shamelessly flatter. My heart gradually hardened, and I no longer hated, complained, or regretted any decision. Until I sent you out of the Chen Kingdom, knowing that you were going to assassinate the King of Song, I never regretted my decision. Later, you were assassinated and arrested, and I always believed that I could come to Song to save you. I never hated, never regretted letting you come to the Song Kingdom, until last night, I heard the conversation between you and the King of Song, I chased you to the dark and unmanned dormitory, you fell into my arms, I will give you the pulse...... I hated myself. ”

Xiao Yi listened to his calm tone, but he didn't want the little jade sword in his hand to cut his palm, and bright red blood beads came out one by one. She held his hand anxiously: "You let go...... I have quenched this sword with severe poison, although I have cleaned it later, I don't know if there is any residue. ”

Zhuge escaped and said: "Your poison did not poison King Song, so naturally it will not poison me." I turned all the prisons in the Song Kingdom upside down, and I didn't find you, it turned out that the so-called arrest was just trapping you in his gentle township. ”

Xiao Yi wept, and one drop after another was falling into the blood stains in Zhuge Escape's hands. "Zhuge don't tell anyone else. I am the princess of the Qi Kingdom, and I can't have anything to do with the King of Song. I thought that he had been poisoned by me and that he would die soon, and I just wanted to accompany him on one last journey and then apologize for my sins. Unexpectedly, this world is strange and poisonous, and it doesn't work for him. In the future, I will not have any contact with him again, and I will leave the White Jade Palace with you. ”

Zhuge escaped and said: "In this case, if you go to assassinate him again and avenge your blood and hatred, I can guarantee that you leave the White Jade Palace safely." If you don't want to do it, I can do it for you. ”

Xiao Yi's tears seemed to be frozen in his eyes, and there was a buzz in his brain, and there was another dull pain in his lower abdomen.

Zhuge Dunji saw that her face turned white instantly, and immediately used his blood-stained hand to check her pulse. He sighed lightly: "Xiao Yi, do you know that you are pregnant?" ”
