As soon as Qi Mo went back, he told Qi Ruo about letting her go to Zizhou with her, but Qi Ruo categorically refused.

'No way!' If you are not careful, you will lose everything', you should know better than me, if I also leave, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of Prince Ren, and when the time comes, the old lady will tell him everything, so doesn't he know everything? ”

Qi Mo knew better than anyone else about the powerful stakes, but he didn't want Qi Ruo to take this risk!

Qi Ruozi understood Qi Mo's thoughts, took his hand and comforted: "It's going to be fine, even if you call back at that time, he still thinks about blackmailing you with me, you can't die." ”

"You can do it boldly and with confidence, you are a general who is loyal to the monarch and serves the country, and I, as your wife, dare not and cannot drag you back, the people of the Zhenguo Mansion should have a backbone."

Qi Mo took Qi Ruo into his arms: "It's really hard for you to follow me here." ”

After he brought Qi Ruo to Yuanjing, he didn't give her a day of leisure, he just wanted to stay here, and the two of them could stay together.

Qi Ruohui hugged Qi Mo: "I understand." ”

The people of the family and the country, that is something that Qi Mo can't let go, she is a short-sighted woman who also knows what the pros and cons are, compared to her personal safety, the stability of thousands of people is the most important.

"Why don't we live in seclusion when this happens? Living the days of idle clouds and wild cranes? The big house and the yard, when we want to go out for a walk, we can look everywhere, anyway, we are not short of silver. ”

Qi Mo asked, half jokingly, half seriously.

Qi Ruo had a slight wave on her face, and there was some longing in her eyes, but she still shook her head, and after shaking her head, she raised a small face and pretended to be arrogant: "No, I still want to be the wife of this town's mansion." ”

Actually, it was false for Qi Mo to say that she was not moved by the days she said, but she knew that he was not here, and she didn't want him to blame her in the future.

Qi Mo felt very sorry for such Qi Ruo, and he clearly didn't want to take care of these complicated things, but for his sake, he still endured it and took care of everything in an orderly manner.

Now she said this just to make him feel better and let him have no worries.

"Daughter-in-law...... "You must be with me for the rest of your life."

On the morning of the second day, the emperor talked about transferring Qi Mo to solve the bandits, and the old ministers who had not yet eased up were even more troublesome, saying that this was overkill, and that Zhenguo Gong should accompany the emperor to the battlefield together, even if he did not go to the battlefield, he should stay in Yuanjing.

The emperor once again gave the matter to a firm point with strong means, and the old ministers persuaded for a while, but in the end they couldn't twist their arms and thighs, making trouble, but they delayed the emperor's expedition for several days, and in the end they still compromised.

The day Qi Mo was leaving, it was Qi Ruo's clothes for him, and she gently stroked the crescent jade pendant he wore on her chest, as if she was looking at someone through this jade pendant.

Qi Mo knew that Qi Ruo was afraid that she would think of her mother again, and maybe she would still think about her biological father.

"I don't think this jade pendant is an ordinary thing, it should have been passed on for a long time, and I actually asked someone to find it, but there is no news yet."

He pondered for a long time, but he didn't say it because he was afraid that she would be sad, and now he didn't know why, because he was afraid that he wouldn't have time to say something.

Qi Ruo's movements in his hand paused, and then returned to normal, and with a smile on his face, he stuffed the jade pendant into Qi Mo's clothes: "It's okay, you just come back safely." ”

After a pause, he said: "The New Year is coming in less than a month, I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back for the New Year. ”

"What's the point of me spending the New Year alone, it's better to think about you." Qi Mo was short, rested his head on Qi Ruo's shoulder, and rubbed it, "I want to eat the cured meat made by my daughter-in-law, what others make is not as delicious as what my daughter-in-law makes." ”

Qi Ruo was the most coquettish Qi Mo couldn't do it, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll do it." ”

But Qi Mo changed his mind again this time.

When he heard this, he immediately raised his head, waved his hand and said, "You can't do it, you say, others can do it, otherwise you will have to freeze your hands, and your body is just right." Forget it, don't eat it, I've heard that this year's lap-mei is ready. ”

"I could do it before, but I can't do it now? How can you be so squeamish? Qi Ruo's heart was warm, and his face was even more happy, but he deliberately said in reverse, "If others do it, you are not afraid that they will freeze their hands?" ”

"That's different."

What is different from others, Qi Mo didn't say anything.

Qi Mo grew up with brocade clothes and jade food, although he can do everything himself, but he still hasn't done dirty work.

He will not look down on or even criticize his subordinates, and even treat them very leniently, but some things are engraved in his bones.

Besides, if the real master has done everything, there is no need to invite or buy people to come to the house to do work, how many people will starve to death because of this!

"It's snowing today." Qi Ruo looked outside a little wistfully.

Qi Mo continued: "The winter days in Yuanjing are longer, and I may be able to accompany you to enjoy the snow when I come back earlier." ”

Qi Ruo smiled like a flower: "It's the same next year, don't worry." ”

Qi Mo didn't want Qi Ruo to send it to himself, but Qi Ruo insisted on sending it, so he left it to her.

Qi Ruo deliberately dressed up today in order to please the head, and the lip grease was more heavily applied than in the past, and carefully selected a white dress, embroidered with pink peony flowers, and a red cloak on the outside of the clothes.

Qi Ruoke didn't care about the admiring or envious eyes of others, his heart was full of the person sitting on the tall horse, and he was still reluctant to see people walking away, so he hurriedly carried his skirt and walked up the city tower.

Ordinary people can't go up to the city gate, but the soldiers guarding the city gate will naturally not stop them when they see the dignified town and his wife taking care of each other.

Qi Ruo carried her skirt up to the city tower, but saw Qi Mo and his party drifting away in the snow, she suddenly felt a sense of sadness for some reason, as if she didn't know when she could see him again.

It wasn't until Qi Mo and his party couldn't even see a small black spot that Qi Ruo came back to his senses, lifted his skirt, and let Xia He and Qiu Ju help him go down to the city tower.

As soon as he got into the carriage, Xia He asked softly: "Madam, there is news from Mo Shangshu, saying that he wants to see you, but I don't know you...... What do you think? ”

Qi Ruo was stunned for a moment, unable to make a decision for a while, and the carriage had slowly headed towards the Zhenguo Mansion.

Xia He said again: "Madam, are you really not going to take a look?" ”

Qi Ruo looked at Xia He in surprise.

Xia He was not a lot of words in the past, if she was as silent as she is now, Xia He would definitely not ask more, she would just wait on the side, this is the first time Xia He has behaved so impatiently.

"Xia He, why do you want me to see Mo Shangshu so much? Didn't he give you any benefits? ”

That's a big crime.

Xia He hurriedly knelt down: "The slave and maid are loyal to the lady, and there is no second heart in the decision, the slave and maid just feel it...... I feel that Madame should not run away, things must be resolved......"

Qiu Ju also knelt down to intercede for Xia He.

"Madam, Xia He and I have been sold into the Zhenguo Mansion since we were children, how fortunate we are to serve the Grandpa of the Kingdom, and how fortunate we are to have you as the master now, Xia He will definitely not betray you, please Mrs. Mingjian."

Qi Ruo has always been generous to others, and she never felt that she could betray life and death with her words, but once she crossed the line, she would never be soft.

Nothing else, she has to protect what she cares about, and some of them must be abandoned, such as unwarranted kindness.

"I never want to be too you, and I don't want absolute loyalty, but you should know what to do and what not to do."

Qi Ruo saw that the two of them listened to it, so he smiled and said: "You guys get up, I just hope you can remember that since you follow me, your heart must be biased and biased towards me." ”

Her words are really domineering, but now the situation is unclear, in order not to drag Qi Mo back, she really needs to beat the people in the house.

Xia He and Qiu Ju showed their loyalty, and then they stood up.

"Let's go to the Marquis Ningyuan Mansion to take a look at the old lady first, and then ...... I'll see him later......"

Qi Ruo is now having mixed feelings in his heart, Qi Mo and Mo Forget belong to two camps, and they are destined to fight, but one is his husband, and the other is very likely for himself...... Father.

She didn't want to face it, and even timidly avoided it for a few days, just because she was afraid that she would confirm that Mo Forget was her father.

But she wanted to know about her mother's past, and she wanted to know why he didn't come to find his mother who was waiting for him.

"Has Grandpa Guo asked you about this?"

Qi Ruo asked lightly.

Xia He replied: "Grandpa Guo has been very busy recently, he goes out early every day, and when he comes back, it is late at night, and he has never asked, but ...... Grandpa Guo is extremely smart, and the slave maid thought that Grandpa Guo should have sensed that something was wrong, but she didn't have time to ask. ”

But no, the Wen family made a series of moves, then she must have a trick, Qi Mo didn't know her tricks, so he would inevitably think that Qi Ruo's idea was solved, but what this method was is open to discussion.

"Well, I'll tell him myself when he returns."

Qi Ruo said this, but she was still worried in her heart, she was in a dilemma, and she was even more afraid that because of her, Qi Mo would hesitate, and then cause the emperor to have a gap with the Zhenguo Mansion, and then I was afraid that it would be difficult to collect it.

She wasn't ready to go to see Mo Forget today, but she was thinking that this matter should be resolved, maybe ...... Maybe he can let him stop in front of his deceased mother.

Although it was delusional, she wanted to try it when there was hope.

When she arrived at the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, Mrs. Ruan was a good lecture to Qi Ruo, but because Qi Ruo was sick, she didn't let her go to see her, so she felt a little angry in her heart, and she just felt sorry for her

Qi Ruo came and went back without looking at anyone, but she accompanied Mrs. Ruan to eat, and waited for her to rest before leaving.

"Can you go talk to him?" Qi Ruo asked in a low voice as soon as he returned to the carriage.

Xia He lowered his eyebrows and replied smoothly: "I said, no one saw the corner gate where Tete went." ”

Qi Ruo nodded absentmindedly, raised his hand and lifted the carriage curtain to take a look.
