Chapter 60: Protect Her
Qi Ming opened his mouth, but he didn't speak after all, I knew that he wanted to analyze the stakes to Qi Qian, but he understood that Qi Ming might not be able to understand, let alone Twilight Xue, who was used to freedom all his life.
I understood Qi Ming's confusion, and I also clearly knew the mystery of this, so I became even more sad and helpless: "Or, let's try to negotiate with the saint?" Maybe it will end well? Why don't we ask your father if they have any solution? ”
Qi Ming looked at Qi Ying's reaction, as if he felt sorry for him, and then gritted his teeth and said the cruel words in his heart: "Qi Ying is innocent, Duxue is simple, but the city lord of Dunhuang is not naïve, the Xiongnu Shan Yu is not naïve, and our father King Inu Rong is not simple, they should be able to easily see through the stakes and know the ins and outs!" ”
"That's good! We can ask our father and uncle for help! Qi Qi suddenly became excited, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
Qi Ming shook his head, his expression darkened: "Since the fuse of the matter is very clear, do you think they will be stupid enough to ignite this explosive keg?" I'm afraid that they will see through this conspiracy as soon as possible, so as to ...... Thereby...... Command a few of us, and do everything according to the will of the Holy One......"
Qi Yi sat on the chair in a daze, his face was pale, I understood the pain in his heart now, watching the girl he loved about to marry someone else, the pain of powerlessness.
Li Yan asked, "However, will the city lord of Dunhuang really marry Duxue to the prince of Hui despite his daughter's objections?" ”
"With Dunhuang's current strength, can it compete with Chang'an and Huifu?" Qi Ming asked rhetorically.
Liyan is silent, Chang'an City has been rich and strong in the past ten years, although Dunhuang has been prosperous for a hundred years, but after all, Chang'an is a huge stone, and Dunhuang is just a small pearl, a strong people, a vast territory, which is not comparable to all the gangs, not to mention a Hui Hui whose strength is already stronger than Dunhuang.
Qi Ming continued: "If Chang'an does not interfere in the peace of the world, then in the Northern Desert, the best reliance of Dunhuang is the dog Rong and the Xiongnu. However, if the Hui Hui has the meaning of dividing the world, and Chang'an is secretly supporting behind the scenes, then if Dunhuang and the Hui are friendly at this time, one has money and one has soldiers, then the Hui Dunhuang clan in the Northern Desert can compete with the Huns and the Huns, and the Dunhuang clan will appear, so that the two factions will contain each other, and no one will lose to anyone, but it can support for a while. And the lack of money in Hui and the lack of soldiers in Dunhuang, only this time can greatly improve the strength of the two families. In this way, what decision do you think the Dunhuang City Lord will make? ”
Li Yan couldn't believe Qi Ming's words: "But...... Hasn't the lord of Dunhuang always put the twilight snow first? How could it be ......"
"Liyan." Qi Ming sighed, and then said: "Don't admit it, it's not that you don't understand this truth." ”
Li Yan was silent for a while, but finally compromised, he glanced at Qi Ying, and asked Qi Ming solemnly, "I know that Qi Qi and Twilight are not so easy to get together...... But how do they convince Twilight? ”
"The city lord of Dunhuang can raise Twilight Snow for the rest of her life, let her do whatever she wants, do you think, is the role of husband important to Twilight Snow?" Qi Ming asked rhetorically.
"If it was the city lord's intention, the smart Twilight Snow might not agree. Sometimes, we underestimate Twilight Snow too much, although she was pampered by the lord of Dunhuang City, but when did you see her arrogant? When did you see her do something wrong, or something bad for Dunhuang? It's in her nature to be free, but it's in her nature to be kind. ”
"If she had to do it, she would have agreed." Qi Yan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke, his fists clenched tightly.
"Riding her, if you love her, then take care of her, protect her, no matter what kind of decision your father makes, you must dare to fight for it. Big deal, we're all in bets. Qi Ming said to Qi Ying, but I always felt that he was talking to himself, more like expressing some kind of forbearance in his heart.
"In the Northern Desert, is there really no tribe that can come out to stop and compete with Chang'an? If, if we win over all the tribes of the Northern Desert to oppose this marriage, will it be useful? I asked.
"I'm afraid that the only person who can sit on an equal footing with Chang'an and discuss this matter fairly and reasonably is the Holy Lord, but unfortunately the Holy Lord's family passed away ten years ago...... Although the current tribes of the Northern Desert and Chang'an are neighbors, their powerful suppression has never allowed other tribes to have any objections. And after the death of the Holy Lord, the various tribes in the Northern Desert have always been independent, and I am afraid that no one has the great appeal of the Holy Lord to call everyone up...... If there is really such a person, then Beimo does not have to be afraid of Chang'an. Li Yan said, his tone full of sadness and remembrance.
"Holy Lord...... The Holy Lord cannot be resurrected, so what about the people of the Holy Lord's family? Do the people in his family have this appeal? I asked, trembling, my heart pounding, waiting for their next reaction.
Suddenly, the sound of silver bells tinkling through the door interrupted the conversation between us.
"Brother Qiyi!" Twilight let out a cheer and ran through the door, jumping up to the rider and sticking to him.
"Brother Qiyi, what's wrong with you? Why are you upset? Twilight Xue asked worriedly, looking at the solemn look on her face.
"Did you say anything to my brother again?" Twilight turned her head and scolded Qi Ming, looking unhappy.
Qi Ming didn't want to argue with her, and turned his head to the side.
"Twilight" rider grabs Twilight's hand.
"Brother Qiyi, what's wrong with you? Tell Twilight! Twilight stomped her feet in a hurry, and as soon as she moved, her body clanged.
"Brother, I ask you, if, I mean, your father wants you to marry that raisin prince, will you be willing to marry him?" Riding Ryan nervously awaited Twilight's answer.
Twilight immediately replied, "Of course I don't want to marry that bad guy!" However, there is nothing bad about him except that he has a bad mouth, but I don't like him at all, not at all! I like to ride my brother the most! But if my father insists that I marry him, I don't want to make my father unhappy...... I've grown so big, my dad has never asked me for anything, and I swear that if my dad asks me to do something, I'll do my best......"
When she said the last few words, Twilight Xue's voice lowered: "But don't be sad Brother Qiyi, even if I want to marry him, I will definitely not go to them to return to Hui, I will continue to stay in Dunhuang and continue to play with Brother Qiyi!" ”
Qi Yi smiled bitterly and touched Twilight's head, he was helpless about Twilight's innocence. In the morning, his brothers told him so many realistic things, and he felt terrible and sad, but he didn't want to tell Twilight about these things, and he didn't want her to accept these realities and the unbearable fate anymore.
There are four princes in the Hui prince's family, and there is only one princess in Dunhuang, so naturally they don't need to go through the door in the twilight, and they are very willing.
Riding suddenly seemed to sweep away all the gloom, and suddenly smiled brightly at Twilight, maybe Twilight wouldn't notice, but Qi Ming and I could see that something was wrong with his smile.
Riding Ridge grew up, and he grew up in just this moment. He no longer acts casually in everything, no longer speaks bluntly in everything, he has learned to protect another person, he has learned to keep only the pain and disaster to himself, just to build a clear sky for another person, he has grown up, he knows what forbearance is, what is responsibility, and how to protect the people he loves.
"Twilight, don't worry! Brother will never let you be unhappy to marry that raisin prince, trust me! Riding Ryan held Twilight's hand tightly.
At this time, I saw Qi Ming's fist, clenched tighter, and his knuckles were already a little white. The expression was solemn as never before.
"Oops!" Twilight screamed suddenly, clutching her knees, as if her features were wrinkled together in pain from pain.
"What's wrong?!!" Qi Ming was startled, rushed forward, and helped her to the seat.
"Sister Sheng, please help me take a look, my leg seems to be bleeding again......" Twilight sent a pitiful cry for help.
"How can it bleed? Come and see me! "I crouched down next to her, and there were wear marks on the knee of her dress, and it looked like she had fallen or hit a sharp object.
She pulled up her trouser leg again and again, and told the reason: "Last night I ran out to feed the fish, and no one in the palace helped me light the lamp in the middle of the night, but when I got up, I hit a stool and fell...... But it didn't bleed in the morning, and I don't know why it hurt just now......"
The trouser leg was pulled up, revealing Twilight's white calves, her calves were slender and slender, like a soft piece of white jade, and people couldn't help but want to reach out and caress it.
But at the top of this soft white, on the knee, there was a red mark the size of a walnut, which was an abrasion. The wound was not serious, and the blood scab had coagulated before, but because it was not bandaged, and after rubbing against the clothes for so long, the wound of Twilight Snow, which had fine skin and tender flesh, was worn out again, and a trace of blood was gushing outward.
When Qi Ming saw this scene, he immediately became angry when he didn't know where the anger came from!
"Twilight, when do you think you'll be able to settle down? Running out in the middle of the night to feed some fish! Did I tell you not to run around alone at night? Look what it looks like?! And why don't you speak when you're hurt? If you want to feed the fish so much, why don't you call the rider to come with you! Yang Sheng and Chen Fei live next to you, you are injured and want you to say it, is it really that difficult to do?! ”
