Chapter 43: Light
Chapter 43 Light
"Xiaodong, sister Xiaodong, wake up, don't sleep."
Is it calling her?
Cold, dark and cold......
"Don't sleep, wake up."
Xiao Dong felt a heavy pain in her head, where was she?
"Sister Xiaodong!"
Xiao Dong's eyes finally opened.
She remembered, mutiny, secret passage......
Then she found out that she was leaning on Qin Lie.
"Is it cold or not?"
Xiao Dong's consciousness was almost numb, and his brain was spinning very slowly.
Why did she fall asleep?
"We ...... Let's go now? ”
Qin Lie said in a low voice: "We went to probe the two exits just now, one can't be opened from the inside, and the other exit is still in the mansion, and we can't get out yet." Are you thirsty? ”
Qin Lie brought a bowl of water out of nowhere, Xiao Dong took it, the bowl touched her mouth, and she stopped: "What about you?" Have you drunk? ”
"Drunk." Qin Lie still took it out in his arms and took out two hard cakes: "Oh, that's the only one, if you're hungry, fill your stomach first." ”
Xiaodong drank half a bowl of water and didn't feel hungry: "How long have I been sleeping?" ”
"It's been the night, but it's not dawn yet."
"Outside...... What do you think? ”
"I just heard the sound of killing."
"Where's the house?"
Qin Lie shook his head: "The place we came from can't be opened." ”
Zhang Ziqian approached quietly and sat aside.
Xiao Dong felt that his body was cold and hot for a while, and he had no strength at all.
She can't get sick. At this time, the house leak is rainy and rainy, which will not only cost you your own life, but also affect the two people around you.
Xiao Dong cheered up and talked to Qin Lie: "Cousin, your shop and guys ......"
Qin Lie is also open-minded: "They go south and north, and each of them has a set of ways to save their lives. If the shop is knocked and burned, it will be nothing, the money can be earned back, and the person will be fine. ”
Zhang Ziqian echoed: "What Brother Qin said is true. Listening to Brother Qin's accent, doesn't he look like a local in the capital? “
Qin Lie's official language has been spoken very proficiently, and ordinary people really can't tell that he is not from the capital.
"Yes, I'm from Suizhou."
Zhang Ziqian nodded and said, "Yes, when you say a few words, the nasal voice is heavy, but here in the capital, the nasal voice is light." ”
This man's ears are really sharp.
"Brother Zhang is a local?"
"It's not." He said: "I am from Wanzhou. ”
But his official words are really good, the words are correct and round, and they are very pleasant to listen to, which is simply ...... It's as if he's trained to speak vocally.
"How many people are in Brother Zhang's family? Why did you come to the palace alone? ”
After a pause, Zhang Ziqian said slowly: "I am the only one in my family. ”
Xiao Dong and Qin Lie were stunned together, and Qin Lie hurriedly apologized to him.
"My family is unlucky, and it's not Brother Qin's fault."
Qin Lie also said: "Brother Zhang is open-minded. In fact, there are only two people in my family, me and my mother. Although there are other relatives, they are the same as enemies. ”
He didn't even want to mention it before, and Xiao Dong didn't know about it all the time.
But I don't want him to say it now.
Zhang Ziqian comforted him: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read." ”
Qin Lie nodded: "Exactly." He bowed his head and said to Xiao Dong, "If Sister Xiao Dong wants to hear it, I'll tell you about those things." ”
Qin Lie was afraid that she would be cranky, right?
Xiao Dong hummed softly: "If you are unhappy, don't say it, forget that people always have to look forward in life." ”
Lie nodded: "Anyway, sooner or later, you'll know, now that there's nothing to do, I'll tell you, you listen." If Brother Zhang doesn't think I'm noisy, I have the right to relieve my boredom, don't laugh at it. ”
"My father's surname is Lin, he is a son of a family in Lianghe County, Suizhou, he is a decent person, and he is also very talented, but he has been sick since he was a child and his body is weak. My mother is a Xieyi person, and the women in the clan are like treasures, and they have never intermarried with the clansmen. But my mother took a fancy to my father in her heart, and she had to marry him. According to the clan rules, I crossed the needle mountain and walked the fire road, and broke off the relationship with the clan before marrying my father. ”
Qin Lie said it, with a hint of pride in his words, although Xiao Dong didn't know what the needle mountain and the fire road were, but just listening to it, he felt a chill on his body, and he didn't know how Qin Lie's mother gritted her teeth and held it down.
Speaking of which, Yao Jinfeng's mother is not a Central Plains woman, and her marriage with Yao Jinfeng's father is also
"The people of the Lin family didn't want my mother to get started, and it was only because my father insisted that I became a parent. But my mother is straight and hard-tempered, and although my mother is wronged, as long as my father treats her well, she also feels willing. My mother was pregnant, but she was angry with the Lin family, suffered a secret loss, and failed to keep it. After two years, my father was very happy, but in the autumn of that year, he fell seriously ill and died. The old lady of the Lin family turned her face ruthlessly and drove my mother out of the door. ”
This is a desperate road! She is a woman with a big belly, and she has no mother's house to go back, how can she live if she is driven out like this? Even if you don't like your daughter-in-law, the grandson in your daughter-in-law's womb is always kissed, right? What does this old lady of the Lin family think?
Xiao Dong remembered that King An said that Qin Lie was born in a broken grass hut, and it was still raining heavily.
"So although my mother also has a father and mother, she will not meet her alive, and she will not be allowed to come to the grave when she dies. As for the Lin family, not to mention, after my mother was kicked out, their family also did a few black hands, but our mother and son had a big life, so they didn't let them die. ”
There must be some other reason for this. Otherwise, even if they are not relatives, they will not be like they have a blood feud.
Qin Lie said: "Let Brother Zhang laugh." ”
Zhang Ziqian shook his head: "Brother Qin, why did he say this, in fact, I ......"
He didn't have a family member, and he was an unfortunate man.
Qin Lie changed the topic and talked about his business route, in short, he didn't let Xiao Dong worry about it. Zhang Ziqian is also a smart person, and it is very lively to talk with him.
"By the way, Brother Qin has a shop in the capital? I don't know what the font size is called? ”
"If you open two of them, you can actually count them as one. The front door is a treasure from all over the world, and the back door is a delicious house"
Yes!
Xiao Dong and Zhang Ziqian were surprised together.
"You opened the treasure of the four seas?"
"Delicious Residence is also Brother Qin's industry?"
"It's just a little fight."
Is the treasure of the four seas also a small fight? So what counts as a big deal? She hadn't been to Delicious House, but she had heard of it. The treasures of the four seas are even more thunderous.
Qin Lie and Zhang Ziqian took turns to talk, until Xiao Dong was so sleepy again that he couldn't support it and fell asleep.
How long they stayed underground, Xiao Dong never figured out. According to the authoritative statement, it can only be said that it is two days and two nights with the head and tail, and if the head is pinched and the tail is removed, it can only be said that it is two days and one night. But Xiao Dong felt that at least four or five days, maybe it would be longer.
I don't know how many times she woke up, she found that she was carried by Qin Lie, Zhang Ziqian led the way, and the footsteps of the two people were hurried and messy.
"Someone...... Did you find it? ”
Qin Lie only said to her, "Don't be afraid, it's okay." ”
They stopped suddenly, and Zhang Ziqian said something, but he didn't hear it clearly. The top of his head suddenly opened his mouth with a loud opening, and the light poured down like mercury, stabbing Xiao Dong almost blind for a moment, unable to see anything.
The people above cheered: "Here it is." ”
Some people said one after another: "Quick, quick, is the county lord okay?" ”
The accent of the person who spoke after that was somewhat familiar, it was the voice of the personal guard who was always by King An's side. Xiao Dong's whole body was relieved, and he only muttered in his heart, it's over, it's finally over.
Then she thought inexplicably, this secret passage can not be repeated, this time it is exposed, and the next time it can be used.
Bah, crow's mouth, is she still looking forward to the next time?
Never have another talent.
Xiao Dong was lifted up, his feet on the ground, and he took a deep breath.
It's always overwhelming underground. That's not physical, it's purely psychological.
There was a smell of burnt in the air, and I don't know what was burned.
The smell remained in Xiao Dong's memory for a long time, just like the memories of those dark times underground.
After dark, King An returned home.
King An's eyes were bloodshot, and he was described as haggard.
Xiao An personally served tea to him: "Has your father eaten?" I made some light and easy food. Father has eaten, hurry up and freshen up and rest. ”
King An seemed to be extremely tired, nodded slightly, lowered his eyelids and leaned there still.
Xiao Dong tried to shout: "Father? ”
King An raised his head: "Are you okay?" ”
"My daughter is fine." Xiao Dong said softly.
The situation in the mansion Xiao Dong whispered, the housekeeper Fuhai was seriously injured, most of the guards were killed and injured, and everyone in the mansion was urged, but the news was that the Hu family fled from the side door with the county lord......
She is obviously hiding, which county lord is the Hu family? Where can they flee?
There is no news yet.
"Also, Mrs. Ming...... She is missing. ”
Mrs. Ming is beautiful and moving, in such a turmoil, her encounter Xiao Dong can't even imagine.
Although he didn't like her, Xiaodong never thought that she would encounter such a thing.
"Father, how is it going in the city?"
"The rebels have been cleared...... The second prince fled to the West Inner Garden and was surrounded, so he committed suicide. ”
"Where's King Jingjun?"
"He started a fire and harmed himself."
The next day, Xiaodong got the good news that Hu Shi did not die, and she came back.
"It's really the emperor's blessing, we escaped not far away and met the men and horses led by Captain Luo, he knew me, and released the news that the county lord of Anwang had been rescued by them, escorted us all the way back, and killed many rebellious thieves-
Hu's hair was scattered, and the little girl who followed him was still wrapped in Xiao Dong's most gorgeous palace dress, which was already dirty, and her face was smeared like a mud monkey, mud, ash and tears were mixed together, crying silently. Xiao Dong looked at her several times before recognizing her as Red Thorn.
"I was the shortest, and at that time, Sister Hongfu and the others had to compete with me for this dress, but only I could wear it."
So it was Hu Shi who pulled her away to attract attention.
She is usually silent and works quietly, often making people unaware of her existence.
But this time, she suddenly drew everyone's attention to herself.
Xiao Dong grabbed Hu's hand tightly, Hu himself was so tired that he couldn't do it, but he still comforted Xiao Dong vigorously: "Don't be afraid, county lord, isn't it okay?" The prince is also fine, and we are all fine, so don't be afraid. ”
"Mom, don't leave me ...... in the future"
Hu Shi was stunned, then burst into tears, hugged Xiaodong and said, "Okay...... Good...... Don't leave ...... behind I won't leave you behind......"
