Chapter 260: Doubts
The bomb that General Yang was still alive blew up Xia Li and Xia's family, and the two looked at Ye Feng in surprise.
"Is my grandfather still alive?"
"The old lady is still alive?"
Ye Feng said, "Lord Qiu has come from afar, please sit down and talk slowly." He said to Qiu Jili again, "Lord Qiu, please take a seat." ”
Qiu Jili looked at Xia Li, didn't dare to recognize his daughter first, sat down and said, "Yes, my father-in-law is still alive." He was in good health and withstood so many blows in order to pay for his blood debts. His eyes drifted out of the window, his vision became empty, and he continued, "At that time, I had just succeeded to the throne today, and it was difficult to overturn the will of the previous emperor, and I was afraid that my father-in-law's body would not be able to withstand the blow, and it would happen in case."
The emperor didn't believe that Yang Pingping would make that stupid move to strangle the emperor's grandson. The emperor and the former princess were in love with each other, and respected Yang Fan for protecting the country and the country, experienced a hundred battles, and made countless meritorious contributions, but he couldn't bear Yang Pingping's death, and his mother's family was even affected or even killed, so he secretly sent Qiu Jili to take people to Qiongzhou to rescue Yang Fan.
When the boat escorting the Yang family and other nine criminals was about to arrive in Qiongzhou, their boat caught up and kept their distance, sent someone to swim to Yang Fan's boat in the middle of the night to find him, created the illusion that Yang Fan fell into the sea to save the eldest grandson Yang Yi, secretly rescued Yang Fan and four-year-old Yang Yi, and sent them to a secret place to hide.
was unexpectedly discovered on the way, and in order to deal with those people and some follow-up things, Qiu Jili delayed his return to Beijing
After speaking, Qiu Jili got up again and bowed to Xia's fist, and said, "After I went home, I knew that my daughter was sick and died, and An An hanged herself because she couldn't stand the blow of her daughter's death and her mother's family's exile, I really want to wipe my neck to accompany An An." But thinking of my father-in-law who still needs my care, and also avenge An An and the girl I didn't meet, and it is helpless to survive and remarry Xiao Qi, I am far more disgusted with her than you. However, if I want to stay in Hecheng for a long time, in order to protect the people who should be protected, I must make the Empress Dowager Qi and the Qi clan think that I have always been in the palm of their hands, so that I can rest assured that I will leave the border pass."
The Xia clan stared at Qiu Jili and asked, "You mean, you married Xiao Qi, not to be promoted and make a fortune, but to protect my old lady and Brother Yi?" ”
Qiu Jili nodded.
Xia Li still didn't believe it, and asked, "What do you mean that if you don't marry the Qi family, you can't let the Queen Mother and the Qi family rest assured, and you can't go to Hecheng to protect my grandfather." According to your will, if my mother is still alive, you will not be able to protect my grandfather? ”
Qiu Jili looked at the smart and sharp girl, smiled bitterly, and said, "Of course not." If An An is still alive, I will find a way to transfer her and take her to office. But I may not be able to stay outside for more than ten years as I wish, and I am still in Hecheng, which my father-in-law is most familiar with, and it is impossible for me to meet my father-in-law often and get his teachings from time to time. ”
It seems that marrying Xiao Qi is not necessary, but it makes it less difficult to complete the task
This is the informality of big things, right?
Xia Li disagreed. If Qiu Jili had never married, and the wife he married was not the beloved woman he had been waiting for for many years, and this beloved woman was killed by the Qi family, she fully understood what he did. But
Qiu Jili saw that Xia Li still couldn't let go, and said, "Lili, if An An hadn't been killed, I wouldn't have so much hatred in my heart, and I wouldn't have wronged myself so much."
His expression was sad and indignant, as if there was something unspeakable.
Xia Li lowered his eyelids and didn't continue to ask.
Qiu Jili took out two letters from his arms and handed them to Xia and Xia Li, "This is a letter from my father-in-law to the two of you, his old man knew that An An's blood was still alive, and he cried." ”
Xia Shi and Xia Li both took the letter excitedly.
The envelope was wordless, Xia Li hurriedly pulled out the letter and opened it, the handwriting was strong and powerful, and the beginning of it was written "Leaving the grandson is like a hand".
Xia Li's tears welled up all of a sudden, and an old man with a bow and arrow appeared in front of him.
The letter is not long, only one page, but I can feel the old man's full of longing for her, and the ecstasy when he knows that An An's descendants are still alive. He looked forward to seeing this granddaughter as soon as possible, so that she must take care and wait for the day of reunion.
Xia also cried and read the letter. After reading it, he hugged Xia Li and cried, "Lili, I finally waited for this day, I was finally able to complete the entrustment of the eldest grandmother before her death, and take out the jade plaque, which was used by the eldest grandmother when she asked you to recognize your relatives." ”
Although Xia Li knew that Qiu Jili had no choice but to do this, he was still emotionally reluctant to recognize this father. He came late, his daughter was already dead, if he didn't come over, his son would also die Listening to Xia's words, he had to take out the jade plate left by Yang An'an.
Xia said to Qiu Jili with tears in his eyes, "This is given to me by the eldest grandmother, saying that if the two women of the Qi family die, let the girl take this jade plate to you to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." If you die first, let the girl be my daughter for life, and break everything with the Qiu family and the Yang family, and this jade plate should be remembered by the girl."
Qiu Jili got up and took the jade plate, and his tears couldn't help falling anymore. This jade plaque was given to Yang An'an when he was fifteen years old, when he was going to follow General Yang to the battlefield, and it was also his first time to go to war.
At that time, he had the idea of marrying An An, just because Yang Anan was too young to speak. He punned on it and said, "This jade plaque was left to me by my grandfather, and I have always carried it close to me." Now give it to Sister An, if I die in battle, it should be a thought. ”
Eight-year-old An An didn't know what he was thinking, and comforted him with tears in her eyes, "Brother Li won't die, I'll wait for you to come back." ”
Qiu Jili clenched the jade plaque tightly on his chest, he turned around, his shoulders trembled, and the sound of whimpering swirls in his throat, trying his best to suppress his crying.
He was like this, and Xia's previous resentment and hatred towards him seemed to be gone, and he also cried. also said, "Grandma, the girl finally saw her father, her father also recognized the girl, the slave and maid did not disgrace the mission, and she also had the face to see you after death."
Xia Li was cried by Xia again, but she was far less excited than Xia. She has too many doubts in her heart, the emperor recognizes that Yang Pingping and the Yang family are wronged, this is simple, but why is the simple thing so complicated
After a while, Qiu Jili stopped choking, raised his hand to wipe his tears, and then turned around. He walked up to Xia Li, handed her the jade plate and said, "Lili, this is a token that your father gave to your mother back then, and your mother gave it to you, so you can keep it as a memory." When you see it, you can think of not only your mother, but also your father. ”
Xia Li raised her hand to take the jade card, what she received was not the thoughts given to her by Qiu Jili, but the relics left to her by Yang An'an.
