Qiao Mei looked up, she looked at him in a daze, and unconsciously said "You, you also passed through before"

It's just that when her words fell, she glimpsed a shallow smile from Xie Huaijin's always cold eyes.

Immediately after, her hand was gently lifted, and the hot temperature almost made Qiao Mei think that she was still dreaming.

"I promise you." Xie Huaijin said, "I won't let you suffer a trace of grievances in the future." ”

He said word by word so carefully, as if he was making a solemn promise, Qiao Mei noticed a trace of cherishment in his words, and as if she was the treasure in his heart

Although he didn't know why he suddenly said such a thing, Qiao Mei still smiled, "After I go back, naturally no one dares to let me suffer any grievances." ”

She also asked, "Your Majesty is here now, but you can take me away immediately."

"Don't worry, there's still some business to be done here." After Xie Huaijin said this, he paused again and continued, "I have already delivered the letter to the capital, so there is no need to worry about them anymore. ”

Qiao Mei nodded and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

Her heart soared with emotion. What she was most worried about was her father and mother, especially her mother, whether her eyes would be swollen from crying when she heard that she was captive

The two walked forward with steps, although they didn't say anything all the way, Qiao Mei felt that it was now a relaxed and quiet place that they had never felt in these days.

When she returned to the original courtyard, the slave who knelt on the ground inside saw her and Xie Huaijin enter the door, and the cry shook the sky.

When Qiao Mei casually looked back, the attendant who was standing behind Xie Huaijin had disappeared.

Xie Huaijin stayed in Longel for three days.

Qiao Mei did not move out of the house that Ji Qing'an had placed for her. It's just that the best silver carbon is used to make a fire for heating, and the boiler for cooking soup has been removed, and a large stove can warm your hands has been put on the shelf.

Even the curtain next to the door was replaced with a heavy felt curtain, so that the wind would not blow in without tying it tightly.

The reason for this change is not anything else, it is precisely because Xie Huaijin came, he not only came to Longel, but he also lived in this mansion.

In the past three days, he spent most of his time with Qiao Mei.

accompany her to build a snowman in the snow in a thick felt jacket and plush gloves; playing chess with her, while talking about the things of his childhood; also went to the kitchen with her, lit the firewood with his own hands, and cooked the fire.

He taught her to be in the chessboard step by step, and she told him that eating something cold and cold was the most enjoyable thing on such a cold day

Qiao Mei could sense his change.

Since her aunt died, Xie Huaijin has never smiled again, and she has never seen him cry again, as if he has become a wood that no longer touches the red dust, or rather, a pool of stagnant water.

She had never seen him like these days, he was happy, although Qiao Mei didn't understand why he was suddenly like this, but she was also happy for him in her heart.

"When will Your Majesty return to the palace?"

Qiao Mei held his cheek with his hand, looked at the person opposite and reached out to touch a sunspot, his fingers were slender and even, and he landed on the chessboard without much hesitation.

Xie Huaijin looked at her again, "You want to go back"

Qiao Mei nodded, "Yes." ”

Who can't think about it, when Xie Huaijin hasn't come yet, she is looking forward to him or her eldest brother coming all day long and taking her out of here.

Not only does she miss her father, but she also wants Qiao Meng, who has changed her personality but has no hostility towards her, and she wants Qiao Yu, who used to be good with her, but was later taught by Qu to be gradually extreme.

She even thought about Old Madam Qiao.

Xie Huaijin responded without hesitation as if he had just played chess.

"In that case, let's leave tomorrow."

Hearing this, Qiao Mei looked at him a little confused, and left

Xie Huaijin saw that her lips were slightly open, dumbfounded, he thought that Qiao Mei was complaining about him and did not avenge her.

He pondered for a moment, "It's really too much for Ji Qing'an to take you away, so I have asked him to sign the annual tribute."

"Your Majesty" Qiao Mei interrupted him anxiously, she said a little incoherently, "He has treated me with nothing wrong these days, Ji Gongzi has always been courteous, and it is enough to ask Your Majesty for a small punishment." ”

"Okay." Xie Huaijin looked at her for a while, and agreed, "Originally, I just wanted to vent my anger for you." ”

Qiao Mei was still a little strange, "Your Majesty doesn't have any deep hatred with Longel"

The strange meaning of the expression in Xie Huaijin's eyes was stronger than hers, "In the past, it was only Xiliang and Northern Xinjiang that intended to provoke, but these small countries have the courage and the strength, so why do they have great hatred?"

Although he said it arrogantly, Qiao Mei knew that it was the truth.

Because of Xie Huaijin's war, in the past few years, the situation of the Three Kingdoms has collapsed, making the Southern Qi a country dominant, followed by Xiliang and Northern Xinjiang.

It is precisely like this, with Xie Huaijin sitting in Nanqi, and the eldest brother Qiao Yi in foreign affairs, even when the first emperor died, other countries did not dare to take advantage of this to send troops, but could only send women to please him.

Not to mention these small countries that are not in the flow.

Qiao browled her eyebrows, her cheeks showing a sweet pear vortex, and she asked again, "Then why did Longel retreat to such a Western Han land?"

She once only heard that Nanqi had sent troops to suppress Longel, and they were not allowed to set foot in the Central Plains for half a step

The land of Xihan, as the name suggests, is a place that is inaccessible, but it is not a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, but it was once rumored to be "a place where birds don't poop".

After coming to Longel, Qiao Mei also realized that the folk rumors were not necessarily false

Xie Huaijin was silent.

Qiao Mei almost thought that she had asked something that she shouldn't have asked, but after a long time, Xie Huaijin opened his mouth, "Because Ji Qing'an lost a bet with me." ”

Qiao Mei ""

"Your Majesty, you're not kidding, he's gambling with the lives of the people of the whole country," Qiao Mei was shocked.

Xie Huaijin glanced at her, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, and added two more sentences quietly, "Yes, Ji Qingan has always been a disproportionate." ”

Qiao Mei didn't know whether to be angry or how to be good.

She naturally believed what Xie Huaijin said, and Ji Qing'an made a small oath to let Longel move the whole country to such a place where grass does not grow

I really forgive her for not being able to understand her.

She has been here for nearly half a month, and what she saw was that the people were hungry, and there were many low-level people who resented Nanqi, and they all thought that the former prince of Nanqi and the current new emperor of Nanqi had sent troops to whip them, so they had to flee here.

Qiao Mei still remembered that a lowly servant like Dunzhu had a passionate trust in their king and was full of loyalty.

If Longel's people had known these facts, they would have thought that the king they had embraced was a king who loved his people like a son and led by example.

Now it's a joke that makes them wander
