Chapter 229: King Qin Sets Out
Even so, Gu Qingyi has become unrelenting since that day, and she is in a daze from time to time, and even put chopsticks into Mrs. Zhou's bowl when eating, not to mention the oolong incident of changing the dirty diaper for Xiaodouzi again.
She didn't think about it, she was worried about King Qin and her father.
King Qin saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, when he came back from the palace on this day, Gu Qingyi was breastfeeding Xiaodouzi, he took Xiaodouzi out of her arms and handed it to the nurse, pulled her to sit down on the couch, and talked to her in detail about the battle, "...... So you don't have to worry, this battle is under control, and the king will be back soon. ”
Although the battle is easy, it is still necessary to go on the field to kill the enemy, and the sword has no eyes, who can guarantee that there will be no accidents? Gu Qingyi's grandfather, the previous Wu Anhou, died because he was hit by a stray arrow and his wound suppurated, accidents on the battlefield are everywhere, and no one can guarantee absolute safety.
Gu Qingyi didn't speak, instead of decreasing, his worries deepened, King Qin pursed his lips, and his expression gradually became serious, "If you really can't rest assured, the king of Ming Japan will ask his father for a decree and not go to Liangyue City." ”
Gu Qingyi was tempted for a moment, but reason still quickly overcame emotion, and shook her head again and again, "No, how can a husband have a long relationship with children, you should go to Liangyue City, I just don't adapt these days, don't worry, I have adjusted my emotions, and I won't let you add to the burden." ”
She knew that her performance was too abnormal for a while, which gave King Qin a lot of psychological pressure, if she continued like this, even if King Qin went to the battlefield, he would not be able to rest assured that he would not be able to leave the family in the mansion. She didn't want to drag the King of Qin back, so she quickly adjusted her mood, and was very active in preparing for the march, changing clothes and common medicinal materials were fully prepared, and even her father's share was not left behind, and when she finally packed up her things, there was an urgent report from the border pass - the Xiongnu invaded Liangyue City.
The sudden war shook the government and the opposition, and all kinds of voices were endless, and many officials wrote to let the king of Qin go to the border to supervise the war, and Emperor Zhaoming agreed, so that the king of Qin set off immediately.
The news was transmitted back to King Qin's mansion, Gu Qingyi was watering the flowers, the flower pot fell to the ground with a clatter, the embroidered shoes were splashed wet, Qiu Yan and Handong exclaimed, and hurriedly asked her to go back to the room to change her clothes, she let the maid help her enter like a puppeteer, and when she came out, she found that King Qin had returned.
He left in the morning in a pro-dynasty robe, and when he returned, he was already wearing a stubborn and sharp robe. The combined cold armor made him look even taller, with a sword around his waist, hidden in the sheath, his cold face was angular and angular, with a solemn and cold momentum, the whole person was sharp, like a sword out of the sheath, and finally revealed.
He stood in the lobby, holding a sword in his left hand, clenching his fist in his right hand, his face was so condensed that he couldn't see his emotions, he looked at Gu Qingyi silently for a long time before he opened his mouth hoarsely, "Yi'er, this king is leaving." ”
The news just came that I was about to leave.
Gu Qingyi's throat was so blocked that she couldn't speak several times, she cleared her throat before she finally found her voice, and with a little expectation and unwillingness, she asked, "Are you going to leave today?" ”
"Let's go today."
Gu Qingyi's nose was sour, and a layer of mist appeared under her eyes, King Qin stretched out his hand and hugged her tightly in his arms, her body was soft and warm, and she pounced on the cold and hard armor, which seemed to also stain the iron-blooded armor with a bit of warmth and tenderness.
King Qin carefully held her, trying not to let the armor hurt her delicate skin, and lowered his head and kissed her sideburns gently, "Don't worry, this king promises you that he will definitely come back safely." ”
The mist in his eyes finally condensed into tears and rolled down, Gu Qingyi grabbed him tightly, as if he could leave him behind, but this couldn't be after all, because there were soldiers outside to remind, "Lord Wang, the hour is almost up, it's time to leave." ”
This sound was like a verdict, Gu Qingyi's heart immediately panicked, and he looked at King Qin helplessly, how much he wanted to keep him, but a thousand words lingered in his mouth, and in the end they just condensed into three hoarse words, "You go." ”
She was laughing, but it was worse than crying.
King Qin touched his chest, there were Gu Qingyi's tears splashing on it, and the hot temperature seemed to seep into his heart, falling scars bit by bit, burning terribly.
He didn't dare to hesitate any longer, for fear of compromising in her tears, hurriedly let go of his hand, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, turned around and left, but at this moment the little ball ran out, hugged his thighs at once, his eyes were red, and he asked with a pout, "Father, where are you going?" ”
The little tuanzi looked at the mother concubine who was secretly wiping her tears, and then looked at her father who was dressed differently than usual, and cried with a wow, "Father, don't go, Xiao Tuanzi is obedient, Niangniang is obedient, don't go." ”
This is thinking that King Qin doesn't want her and Gu Qingyi anymore.
King Qin was even more distressed, and hurriedly squatted down to coax her, "Xiaotuanzi is not allowed to cry, my father didn't want you and my mother, I just went to fight the bad guys, and I will come back soon, you are my sister, and when my father is away, you have to take care of your mother and brother, okay?" ”
In Xiao Tuanzi's cognition, it was soon just a blink of an eye, and his father left during the day, and he would come back after dark, so he gradually stopped crying, proudly shouldered the responsibility of his sister, and nodded his little head and promised, "Xiao Tuanzi is obedient and obedient!" ”
King Qin rubbed his little head, glanced at Gu Qingyi, and finally resolutely turned around and left.
Gu Qingyi hurriedly chased after him, followed behind King Qin, followed him one way after another, until he reached the gate of the palace, the soldiers were waiting on the side, and his mount was also led out, only to see him jump, looking back at her, his deep eyes seemed to carry a thousand words, he said something silently, the horse's hooves were high, and he left like a wind.
His back became farther and farther away, farther and farther away, and finally disappeared around the corner of the street with the army, Gu Qingyi finally lost all his strength and collapsed on the ground.
He said, "Wait for the king to return, but when will he return?"
Gu Qingyi counted the days, day after day, the sky was getting colder and colder, and the charcoal basin was burning in the house, the king of Qin never came back, but the family letters continued, and the news from the front line was passed back, and she also knew that the Huns and the people who abolished the prince colluded with each other to steal false news, not only failed to break through Liangyue City in one fell swoop, but also was countered by the first army, and suffered heavy losses.
The news of Qin Wangfu was a little faster than others, but after a day, almost everyone in the entire capital knew that the battle was decided, and victory was in sight. But there are also some of these news that I don't know, such as the abolition of the prince.
Since the invasion of the Huns, the abolished prince can no longer contact the outside world, and all the previous purchasing personnel have been replaced, he cannot pass on the news, and the subordinates outside cannot contact the inside.
He was a little panicked in his heart, feeling that the emperor had found out, but he didn't know how much he had discovered, and whether the Huns had seized the city as he wished...... He was imprisoned, completely deprived of eyes and ears, and he could not grasp these news at all, let alone plot big things.
However, fortunately, he made two preparations, and that night, he took the signal fireworks from the study, lit them in the courtyard, and the white light bloomed in the night, and soon the sound of sword fighting sounded outside, and his heart gradually settled down.
Yes, that's what he's going to do - gather people and get him out of this hellish place.
After putting off the signal flare, the waste prince was about to evacuate, but was stopped by an unexpected person, he was startled at first, but slowly came to his senses, and asked in disbelief, "Ying'er, why are you here?" ”
No wonder the waste prince will be surprised, since coming to this house, Yan Shunying has been staying in the room to pray for the child who died young, except for the waiting palace maid, no one wants to see, this is also the first time the waste prince has seen Yan Shunying in a few months, she is as thin as a paper person, her face is very pale, and her dark and gloomy eyes are frightening for no reason.
Yan Shunying just looked at him and didn't speak, the waste prince only felt that the yin wind was gusting, and his back was full of sweat, so he couldn't help but take a step back, "Ying'er, this palace knows that you are sad for our dead child, but the child is gone, the living still have to live, you have to relax, take good care of your body, and when your body is better, let's have another child." ”
Hearing the child, Yan Shunying's stagnant black eyes moved, unwillingness, resentment and resentment all came together, and her voice that had not spoken for a long time was extremely hoarse, "Child? Will we still have children? ”
Seeing that she still had a reaction, the waste prince breathed a sigh of relief, held her thin hand, and swore solemnly, "Yes, there will be, and all the children in this palace will be handed over to you in the future." ”
He already knew that the child in Yan Shunying's belly would die after drinking oxytocic medicine in order to save him, and he felt a little guilty in his heart, and he also had a little more pity and patience for Yan Shunying.
Yan Shunying laughed silently, looking at the waste prince's eyes with a little weirdness, she asked, "Your Highness, are you leaving here?" ”
The waste prince froze slightly, looked at Yan Shunying, thought and calculated in his heart, and brought sincerity when he spoke, "Yes, this palace made people wait in ambush outside, and when they saw the signal flare, they came to the rescue, this palace was about to look for you, you found it just right, go with this palace, let's escape first!" ”
Yan Shunying looked at the waste prince and slowly showed a smile, "I was still worried that you would leave me behind, but I was relieved to see that you were still thinking about me in your heart." ”
The waste prince smiled uncomfortably, but the weirdness in his heart couldn't be erased, and he always felt that Yan Shunying's temperament was becoming more and more strange......
