451. Family matters

The two of them stood on the bridge, feeling cool and breezy and refreshing.

Qi Wushuang stretched his waist and exclaimed, "Alas, the lantern festival was originally very good, but it was disturbed by the bastard father and daughter just now." I now feel that there is always a turbidity in the streets, and only the bridge is clean. ”

"Isn't it because you attracted the attention of Jin Wanbao's daughter because you attracted bees and butterflies?" Zhaoyu quipped.

Qi Wushuang snorted and asked casually, "You're not jealous, are you?" ”

"Fart!" Zhaoyu's reaction was very intense. "Who's going to eat your vinegar?!"

Qi Wushuang turned his head to look at her, and smiled, "It's really rare to have such a big reaction." ”

Zhao Yu turned his head angrily and ignored him.

"Zhaoyu, I think you've changed a lot."

Qi Wushuang's voice came, but it became very serious.

"Yes, I'm so angry with you that I'm ugly." Zhaoyu replied angrily.

Qi Wushuang chuckled, "If it was before, you would have ignored me, or just 'oh', but now you can actually joke with me, it can be seen that the change is really big." ”

Seeing that Zhaoyu still ignored him, Qi Wushuang took a deep breath and asked the question he had always cared about, "You...... Has something happened to you? ”

Zhaoyu was stunned for a moment, and his tone immediately became cold, "Why are you asking about this?" ”

Qi Wushuang hesitated, but still walked in front of Zhaoyu, and said, "Last time you were in a coma in the cave and said in your dreams, although I couldn't understand the Uighur language, but seeing your sad expression, I must have recalled the scene that made you sad in your dream.

"And you have said before that your father is Han and your mother is Uighur, but you hate Han Chinese; Today you even said that your childhood was unfortunate, so ...... I would venture to guess that you are so indifferent and depressed every day, probably because of what happened to you. ”

Qi Wushuang's series of questions and speculations are undoubtedly dancing ballet in the minefield of the rain.

Zhaoyu hates people to ask about her family affairs the most, and she doesn't want to recall these things that make her feel sad, before Emperor Jianian had a subordinate who deliberately humiliated Zhaoyu with this matter, and was directly interrupted by Zhaoyu and driven out of the palace.

If it had been placed in the past, she would have either made a move on Wushuang or would have turned her head and walked away, but this time, her heart was surging, and she asked uncontrollably, "Do you want to hear it?" ”

Even she herself was surprised why she wanted to confide in Qi Wushuang.

Qi Wushuang was a little surprised, "I thought you would refuse...... Ah, I mean, I'd love to. ”

The breeze blows, and the surface of the river is blown up like a wrinkle.

Zhaoyu stared at these folds, feeling that they were like her own thoughts, "My mother fled to the Great Calendar, and her mother's family all died of illness.

"That man was very good to her, promised to make a vow, never gave up, said that he would only be good to her for the rest of his life, but he just coveted my mother's beauty. After my mother married him, he changed. ”

Speaking of this, Zhaoyu's hand tightened unconsciously, and the wooden handle of the lantern rattled, obviously trying her best to suppress the feelings in her heart.

"After getting married, that man took the whole day of drinking and gambling brought by my mother, and when he lost the bet, he got angry and beat people, and the same is true when he drank, so since I was born, I grew up with beating and scolding.

"That man hates me very much, he pointed at me more than once and scolded the wild seeds, and said that he would sell me to the Qinglou to make money and gamble for him, but fortunately, my mother has always protected him, so he didn't succeed."

Qi Wushuang's heart moved, and he gritted his teeth in anger.

Although he is not a flower in a greenhouse, most of what he has seen is the goodness of people's hearts, and he never thought that there was such a scum in this world.

Zhaoyu sighed lightly, with a sad face, "One day that man was drunk, beat and scolded my mother again, and even picked up a candlestick and beat my mother...... That's how my mother went.

"He panicked, tied me to my home, tried to escape, but he didn't pay attention and crashed into the cabinet, killing him instantly. Hmph, that's a bargain for him!

"I escaped from my home, not knowing where to go, and when I was on a rampage, I rammed the carriage of the prince, who was on his way to Yunwu.

"When the prince saw that I was also of Uighur blood, he didn't punish me, but after hearing about my family affairs, he took me with him and took care of me as his sister, and we supported each other for so many years......

Zhaoyu suddenly fell silent.

She had never doubted Di Jianian's attitude towards her before, she felt that the two were both master and servant, and family members, but after Di Jianian's two reactions, Zhao Yu felt that she seemed to be no different from the other chess pieces in Di Jianian's hands.

Qi Wushuang said with difficulty, "It turns out that you are so loyal to Emperor Jianian because of this ......"

Zhaoyu didn't want to continue the topic, so he asked rhetorically, "What about you?" Why are you so curious about me? ”

Qi Wushuang opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

He didn't know why he was so interested in the rain, and he didn't know why he felt distressed after listening to his story.

He didn't even know why he had become so concerned about the rain now.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhaoyu chuckled lightly, and asked again, "Then let me change the question, you clearly know that I was sent by the prince, why did you save me many times?" ”

Although he said it in a joking tone, Zhaoyu was extremely looking forward to Qi Wushuang's answer in his heart.

She knew she wanted to hear a different answer, and she knew what she was expecting in her pounding heart.

But she was also afraid, afraid of hearing Qi Wushuang's breezy words that were enough to bring blows and injuries to herself, and afraid that her heart would be broken.

"I ......"

Qi Wushuang only said one word, and he couldn't say it anymore.

He wanted to say "I don't want to see girls being bullied" and explain it like before, but this time he hesitated.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Qi Wushuang knew that his inner thoughts and feelings were quietly changing with Zhaoyu.

The two fell into an embarrassing speechlessness, at this time, there were more people on the bridge, and Qi Wushuang hurriedly changed the topic, "Ah, there are too many people here, let's find a quieter place." ”

On the other side, Ye Jingjing walked with the Emperor Qianling like a happy child, although she said that she was going to occupy a position to watch the fireworks, but in fact, she was looking east and west, and she was very curious about everything.

She felt like a canary in a cage, and it was easy to let it out today, and she must enjoy the breath of freedom.

"Emperor...... Come on, husband, the fireworks are about to begin! ”

Ye Jingjing excitedly waved towards Emperor Qianling, but she didn't pay attention and bumped into someone.
