Chapter Seventy-Six: Coming to the Door

In the past, my affection with him was like seeing flowers in the fog, and I couldn't figure it out, and I thought that our fate was not deep enough, but I was a person with deep affection, and two people were shallow. After half a year, since Li Xuan returned to Qinzhou, he saw me, and he picked out my love for me, as if nothing could stop us from being together.

The best thing is that I like him, and he likes me. The sourness and heartache caused by him in the past now seem to be irrelevant, but worth it.

I pretended to be annoyed and said, "If you really come to the door with three matchmakers a day, I will ignore you again." ”

He clearly misunderstood what I meant.

"You think I'm just saying it casually?" His hand was placed on my hand and gave me great peace of mind: "There has never been a time in my life when I have been more serious than I am now. I, Li Xuan, have traveled to various countries since I was young, and I don't know what I crave, but now all I want is you. ”

I was at a loss for a while, with his temperament, I was afraid that it would be difficult for him to say such touching love words.

I always felt that he didn't know my mind, it was because I liked him more, and I was somewhat wronged, but I forgot that he was a restrained person, and he didn't let me know anything in his heart, and he took me so seriously, and it was the first time he told me directly.

"No matter how things change in the world, I will live up to you. This is my promise to you. ”

He's always been a promise. I met his deep eyes, which clearly reflected my figure: "I believe in you." ”

He leaned over and hugged me again and whispered in my ear: "The time I chased you to the peach forest, you were slightly drunk and intoxicated under the rain in the sky, it has already moved my heart." All I did after that was to determine my heart for you. Xi'er, I love you. In this life, I only want you. ”

My heart turned into a pool of spring water, and I subconsciously wrapped my arms around his waist tightly: "Li Xuan, in this heaven and on the ground, my Qin Xi's eyes can no longer tolerate others." I'm a stubborn person, and if I see you, I won't look back. ”

The two of us have maintained this posture of embracing each other for a long time, Li Xuan's arms have a very warm and stable feeling, at this moment I really thought that we could go to the earth.

Before the sun set, I was reluctant to go back to Qin's house, Li Xuan ordered someone to prepare a soft sedan chair to send me, thinking of the knife wound, I gladly accepted, inevitably the people in the house were suspicious, close to Qin's house, I let the sedan chair man fall off the sedan chair, and walked back to the house calmly.

Walking to the dining room, only Qi Ao and I had dinner. I sat down, the maid stepped forward to serve me soup and vegetables, my stomach was empty and hungry, I raised my hand to get the chopsticks, only to remember that there was an injury on my arm, and the range of movement was a big stretch of the wound, and I grinned in pain, and I was suddenly recognized by Qi Ao.

He frowned, and his face changed: "What's wrong with your right hand?" ”

It seems that the injured person is me, how can he look more nervous than me, the maid on the side secretly looked at me, I couldn't help but smile and asked her to step back, leaving me and Qi Ao, I whispered: "I went out today, I encountered some trouble, I was a little injured, it's not a big deal, don't tell my father." ”

I'm afraid that he will laugh at me like he did when he was a child, saying that I can't even learn the three-legged cat kung fu for self-defense, and I will lose the face of the Qin Mansion in vain, so I will say that the process of my injury is simple and obscure, and the most important thing is that I can't let my father know about this matter, otherwise how will I sneak out of the door in the future.

Qi Ao obviously didn't buy it, and raised his eyebrows: "A little injury will make you unable to even lift your hands?" When did you learn to make big things smaller? If you refuse to tell the truth, I have to ask Master to intervene. ”

Whenever I wanted to hide from him, he used this trick, so angry that I couldn't do it, but I couldn't see the trick.

I gave him a blank look and muttered: "It's just that I caught two suspicious people in Shanhailou and followed them all the way to expose, and my martial arts were defeated by a knife and injured in my right arm, so it became like this." ”

This will only find out this big problem, eating and writing are all with the right hand, it happens that the right arm is injured, if you stay with your father for a long time, it is very likely to be exposed.

I was still having a headache about how not to let my father find out, and the arrogant face was cloudy: "The person who hurt you, where is it now?" ”

Dad wants to know that someone dares to slash me, and it is estimated that his face is a hundred times more ugly than his.

I passed through the process of Li Xuan saving me: "Dead, kill with a knife." ”

Qi Ao's expression softened a little: "If you hurt you, you will lose two lives, and you will not lose." ”

He may want to say, I'm still alive, it's much better than those two people who lost their lives, and I didn't disgrace the Qin Mansion in the end. I had to laugh twice because I asked him.

He took a sip of the soup rather elegantly: "If I were here, I wouldn't have made them die so easily." ”

The atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing, and the aura of being the emperor was different, I shuddered, and didn't dare to mention that I was almost cut into two pieces, for fear that I would say that he should dig up the graves of those two people and whip them. The dead are greater. The dead are greater.

He stood up, sat down next to me, picked up my bowl and chopsticks in my surprised gaze, took the dish and handed it to my mouth: "Open your mouth." ”

I waved my left hand and politely refused: "I'll just use my left hand, no matter how bad the Qin Mansion is and there are maids, why bother you to feed me?" "First, it's not like he often stuck to him when he was a child, and secondly, he will be the emperor of the southern country in the future, and his status is noble, no matter which one, it's not appropriate to be so close to him. Just eat, how can I be so weak?

He ignored my words and refused to stop for a long time, which made me very embarrassed, and when someone passed by and saw this scene, I should not be able to tell again. I opened my mouth to eat the food he gave me, and when I swallowed, I coughed twice, and he reached out and patted my back to smooth me: "I know you're hungry, eat slowly." ”

He patiently fed me a small half bowl of rice, during which he picked a lot of my favorite dishes, and fed me fish soup, and before I knew it, I ate a lot, and was just about to say that I was full, he tacitly put down the dishes and chopsticks, and no longer fed me.

I picked up a towel and wiped the corners of my mouth, drank water to rinse my mouth, and gave him a slight "reminder" about feeding me: "You will be the emperor in the future." ”

"That's for later, what does it have to do with the present? I didn't take it to heart, so why should you mind? ”

It seemed that feeding me a meal was a normal thing, and this was true, but he didn't care, and I twisted and pinched it instead, and I was uncomfortable.

He helped me, and he came and went: "I'll let the little kitchen cook some sweet soup, and you can come to my garden tonight." ”

Qi Ao really understood me: "Master, I will help you hide it, you have been cautious in your words and deeds these days, don't show your flaws." ”

With his words, I was completely relieved.

After bathing, I changed into a loose dress, let the close-fitting maid re-medicate my wounds, and in the evening breeze, I sat in the gazebo of Xiyuan and waited for Qi Ao to come over.

Tonight, a full moon hangs in the sky, occasionally there are a few flickering stars, two bowls of sweet soup and a few plates of delicate snacks are placed on the table, Qi Ao temporarily handles official business on behalf of his father for more than half a month, supporting the entire Qin family, I should seriously thank him.

After waiting for a while, Qi Ao arrived as promised. Qi Yu Xuanang, the wind under his feet, carefully speaking, he is also a handsome and extraordinary person, except for his colder temperament.

He sat down in the pavilion and put the painting he brought on the table: "If you don't want to marry into the Dugu family, and you don't have anyone else you like, you might as well take my portrait to the business, so that the master can rest assured." ”

If he had said this to me yesterday, maybe I would have done it, but now that I have Li Xuan in my heart, I will never use this painting to prevaricate my father and cause unnecessary misunderstandings. I was still grateful that he had thought of me and smiled, "Thank you." ”

"No, it's better than letting you marry someone you don't like."

He knows my mind better than my father. I don't know how my father is such a clear person, why does he look east and west and look at Dugu Hao?

I couldn't figure it out: "Why did my father come up with the idea of letting me marry into a Dugu family, I still can't figure it out." The ancestors have a training, and they are not allowed to marry the two great families of the Qin family and Dugu Murong, if they can easily make an exception, Sister Ying, she-"

Sister Ying didn't say that she had her admiration for Dugu Hao, that was the idea that she had many years ago, and she hid this thought alone, suffered a lot, and didn't tell outsiders. I didn't understand it before, but when I met Li Xuan, I gradually understood a little. I'm only glad that Li Xuan and I didn't miss it like falling flowers.

"Murong Ying is different from you."

Qi Ao said a word, but I was very puzzled: "What is the difference between Sister Ying and my situation?" She is also going to inherit the throne. "I was stunned, my mouth was moving faster than my brain, and I told him such an important matter, and the secret that Sister Ying was going to inherit the throne was only mentioned to me.

Qi Ao didn't show a look of surprise, as if he had already seen through it, and told me calmly: "You only know that Zu Xun opposes the three major families to have an in-law relationship, but you don't know the reason. The Murong family has been passed down to this generation, and all the births are women, and the head of the family cannot be left behind, so one must be selected from among the many daughters. If Murong Ying marries A Hao, the child born is the common bloodline of the two families, and the status of this child will be very delicate at that time. Because Ah Hao is also the one who wants to inherit the throne of Dugu Hao's family. ”

"This is a child who is qualified to inherit the two major families, once he is gifted and not mediocre, it will affect the situation of the three major families, in other words, he will become a child who should not exist. No one will allow an out-of-control force to exist. ”

The two of them are destined to be in love, because neither of them will let go of the family responsibility. Murong Ying's talent is not bad, she is magnificent, she knows how to advance and retreat, and she can bear the burden of the family. It is reasonable for the Murong family to choose her, not only me, but also Ah Hao. ”

"How do you know that Sister Ying will not give up the throne in order to marry Dugu Hao?"

Qi Ao's expression was very profound: "Your mind is pure, what you see is Murong Ying who is with you, a person can have more than one side, she has her own pride." Family honor and disgrace and personal love, she can still distinguish which is more important. For so many years, she has not expressed her heart to Ah Hao, because she knows very well that she chose the family and should not be involved with Ah Hao. ”

"In your opinion, it is very sad that she has been longing for many years without results, but there are many unsatisfactory things in the world."

Over the years, I've probably lived too comfortably, and these things have happened all around me, but I haven't thought about it at all: "If it were me, how would it be different?" ”

According to this logic, if Dugu Hao marries me, won't our children be even more amazing?

"If you and Ah Hao have a child, the child will be surnamed Qin, and it has nothing to do with the Dugu family. The Dugu family will always choose another child to be the heir, and if Ah Hao can marry you, he will give up the Dugu family, live in the Qin family, and stay in the Qin family with you. ”

I was shocked: "What did you say?!" ”

Dugu Hao still has such thoughts? In order to marry me, he wants to give up the Dugu family and become a member of my Qin family? I couldn't turn the corner for a while: "He has been planning for so many years, and he finally got to his current position, and he is willing to give up for me?" ”

"Is he stupid-" Based on my perception of Dugu Hao, he is used to being romantic, not like an infatuated species, and he wants to marry me at such a big price, he must have made a deal with my father in private, and he never makes a loss-making transaction.

"Dugu Shibo also came by him? It's so imprudent! "Dugu Shibo has put a lot of thought into Dugu Hao, are both father and son crazy? Thinking that I was entangled by someone like Dugu Hao, I was depressed, where did I provoke him, can't I change it?

After chatting with Qi Ao this night, I tossed and turned in bed for a long time before falling asleep, and my dreams were full of Dugu Hao's bastard's annoying face.

On the second day, I went to the front hall to greet my father with a dish in front of me, and met Li Xuan, who came to the door to propose marriage. He visited suddenly, I thought that my father must not be waiting to see him, how did he know that he actually invited three matchmakers to say goodbye, three sharp mouths praised him as heaven and earth, a bunch of expensive dowry, he took off the mutton fat jade pendant he was wearing as a token and gave it to me.

I don't know what my father said to Li Xuan, after a day's work, my father agreed to my marriage with Li Xuan.

What I didn't know was that I had sent my dad to a dead end with my own hands.
