Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Light of Hope
Wei Yao was lying on the bed, her eyes were open, listening to the crackling rain outside, there was a burning sensation in her stomach from time to time because she had not eaten for three days, and she had no strength in her body, she was gambling with her life, she was betting that her father would refuse to propose to the head of the household because he felt sorry for her.
She had once seen the eldest son of Tobe Shangshu, who was an elegant and honest man, polite and full of poetry and books, but her heart had already been given to another person, how could she get it back.
Moreover, since the Lin clan was killed, she was glad that he had escaped, but in a year, she had not heard anything from him.
She was anxious about not hearing from him, but she was happy to be without his news, which was a contradictory feeling, because she was afraid that one day she would hear from him and become dead, so she was frightened and looked forward to it, and there was hope in her heart, and all the waiting was worth it.
But she should have expected that she was eighteen years old, the age at which a girl should marry, some time ago she was unworthy of her father's rejection of a four-grade official's proposal, but now, it was the Hubu Shangshu who proposed the marriage, and she no longer had an excuse to resign.
Wei Yao thought about it in her heart, and suddenly felt that she missed her good friend Ah Zhi so much, if she was here, with her changeable mind and quirky brain, she would definitely be able to think of a solution for her, but unfortunately Ah Zhi also died.
Thinking of this, two strings of tears flowed from Wei Yao's eyes and dripped onto the soft pillow.
The heavy rain will stop, a slight sound, like the sound of a cat breaking a flower pot, she dragged her soft body, pushed open the door to check, but saw a piece of paper on the wet ground, if she didn't open the door in time, I was afraid that it had touched the water and got wet, opened the paper, there were only five words on it, but for Wei Yao, these five words were like a lost bird suddenly finding its way home, which made her infinitely happy, and her face bloomed with a bright and bright smile that she hadn't seen for a long time.
Wei Yao held the paper ball in the palm of his hand like a treasure, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and placed it in the closest place to the centrifuge.
"Wait for me for a year, Ji", Brother Qingji, have you really finally seen Ah Yao's heart, Ah Yao still has a place in your heart after all, right? Wei Yao just wanted to run into Lin Qingji's arms at the moment and ask him if all this was true.
When Tan'er walked into the courtyard with the washing water, she saw that her master had actually gotten up so early, and his expression was dazzling, completely devoid of the decadence and depression of the past, so she asked tentatively: "Miss, why did you get up so early?" ”
Wei Yao smiled at her and said briskly: "Because it is too uncomfortable to be hungry, Miss Ben has decided not to go on a hunger strike, how can there be a cook who goes on a hunger strike, and it will make people laugh out of their big teeth when it is spread." Serve me to wash up, and I'll go to see my father and grandfather later. ”
Tan'er didn't understand why her master suddenly figured it out, after all, it was useless to say that her mouth was worn out, she figured it out after she slept by herself, it was really incredible, but no matter what the reason, as long as she didn't go on a hunger strike.
Wei Yao carefully put the note in the brocade box, and then sat on the stool, and Tan'er groomed her.
After three days of hunger strike, looking at his somewhat thin face in the mirror, with a ruyi exquisite hairpin, there is a weak and shy beauty, Wei Yao showed a satisfied smile on his face.
No one knows what Wei Yao said to Wei Hou, only that the final result is that Wei Hou promised to marry his daughter after a year.
Since Xun Cairen was demoted to the cold palace, the court and the harem have returned to peace, the days are so peaceful, it is summer in a blink of an eye, and the clarity has been full of 100 days, the tender white skin, the thick black eyes, the lotus-like little arms and legs, people can't help but like it, and occasionally show a sweet smile, making people feel that all the sorrow has disappeared.
Murong Qing teased Cheng Cheng and said inadvertently: "This child is really clever and cute, and people don't want to let go when they hold it." ”
Lin Qingzhi looked at the villain in Murong Qing's arms with a smile, and said: "Since senior brother likes clarity, let's accept Chengqing as a righteous son, with senior brother and you as a father-in-law, you will definitely be able to protect him in the future." ”
Lin Qingzhi's words made Murong Qing look stunned, and said with a smile: "Since Ah Zhi is willing, I wish he could call me a father-in-law, come, clear, call a father-in-law to listen, when you grow up, your father-in-law will teach you to practice swords, is it okay to practice good martial arts?" ”
Lin Qingzhi looked at Murong Qing's serious appearance, and said with a smile: "When he can be called his father-in-law, senior brother is only afraid that he will have to wait patiently for a year or two, and he is afraid that it will take three or five years to learn martial arts and practice swords. ”
Murong Qing said affectionately: "As long as you can wait, even if you wait for three or five years, what is it." ”
Lin Qingzhi heard Murong Qing's words and stopped talking, Murong Qing has been coming to the small courtyard more often recently, and every time she wants to speak and stop, it's not that she can't see the deep meaning and affection in the blazing eyes, but she can't respond, so she can only deliberately keep her distance.
As for letting Cheng Che recognize him as his father-in-law, it was just for the sake of Ching's safety in the future, she didn't know what the situation would become in the future, let alone how long the current peace would last, and she asked Cheng Che to recognize Murong Qing as her father-in-law, and she also wanted to tell Murong Qing that you can only be a father-in-law, not a father, that's all.
But the more you can't get it, the more you will chase after it, a few days later, Murong Qing went out on a mission, but encountered danger, Lin Qingzhi didn't know what task he was performing, but when Murong Qing was sent back, he was already confused.
Lin Qingzhi was already proficient in medical skills, and saw that although the wound on Murong Qing's shoulder was not too serious, it was highly poisoned, and although he was given antidote drugs, due to the severe toxicity, he still had a high fever and fell into a coma.
Worried that his toxicity would repeatedly cause other reactions, Lin Qingzhi had been with Wu Yu to take care of him in Murong Qing's room.
Murong Qing was lying on the bed, he was sleeping peacefully in a coma, his well-defined face was a little pale because of blood loss, and his blood color was lost.
In his sleep, he seemed to have dreamed of something frightening, his eyebrows were sometimes frowned up, and his forehead was full of cold sweat, Lin Qingzhi looked at Murong Qing, and told Wu Qing to fetch a basin of cold water, and touched Murong Qing's forehead with his hand, which was terrifyingly hot.
Lin Qingzhi knew what the master was planning, but for Murong Qing, since he told her that she would be loyal to her, she believed it at first, but gradually after coming to the capital, she didn't even know what he was busy with all day, but since he didn't say it, she didn't ask, so it's good, Lin Qingzhi admitted that from beginning to end, she didn't see Murong Qing clearly.
He is a sometimes uninhibited, sometimes affectionate, and sometimes serious person, unlike Xiao Mufeng, who has a cold face and a black belly from beginning to end, Murong Qing has too many faces, as if people can't understand what he is thinking, which face is the real him.
Lin Qingzhi was contemplating, Murong Qingzhi's murmur came into his ears, at first Lin Qingzhi didn't even hear clearly, after Murong Qing shouted twice, Lin Qingzhi's face became solemn, Murong Qing shouted "Don't kill my mother, concubine."
The eldest concubine, only the Khitan princess will be called the eldest concubine, is it ...... Thinking of this, Lin Qingzhi only felt like five thunderbolts, it turned out that the Khitan had infiltrated into the Central Plains so deeply, and it turned out that Murong Qing was also related to the Khitan, but why did he shout in his dream that the eldest concubine should not kill his mother, right? Could it be that he is also a Khitan?
