Chapter Thirty-Eight: Running Away from Home
Since receiving the holy decree, the Xu family has not seen Ye Chuqing for two whole days! Every time I went to Ye Chuqing's door, the door was closed.
And from the next day, even Qiao Rong and Liuxue didn't show up.
On the third day, Xu Shi finally couldn't bear it anymore, she said a lot in front of Ye Chuqing's door, but there was no sound in the room.
Xu Shi was anxious, and his voice suddenly raised a few points: "Qing'er, did you still beat you on the day of the strange mother?" My mother is wrong, is it okay for my mother to apologize? But there was still no sound in the room.
"Qing'er, Qing'er," Xu Shi was a little angry, and slapped the door hard: "Why don't you make a sound?" You...... You open the door! Otherwise, I'll let people bang on the door! "But there was still no movement in the room.
"Okay, okay, in that case, don't blame your mother!" After Xu Shi finished speaking helplessly, he commanded Mother Sun behind him: "Knock on the door!" ”
Mother Sun answered, summoned a few stout mothers-in-law, and slammed Ye Chuqing's door open.
However, Xu was stunned when he entered the door! Because there is no one in the room!
"Qing'er! Qing'er! At this time, Xu Shi was really anxious: "Come on, hurry, go find Qing'er!" Find it! Mother Sun quickly went out and ordered the men to go.
At this time, King An's Mansion was shrouded in joy. His Majesty the Lord of the Kingdom decreed that the general's second daughter, Ye Chuqing, would marry the prince as the main concubine. For a time, the momentum of King An's Mansion was in full swing.
"Your Highness! Your Highness! Sikong Jing's personal attendant Ah Fei ran into the courtyard where Sikong Jing lived excitedly with a delicate mahogany box in his hand, and shouted: "Your Highness, here, here!" ”
At this time, at the door of Sikong Jing's room, another personal attendant, He Yun, held a sword and said with a cold face: "Can you not be so flustered?" ”
Ah Fei was accustomed to his cold face, and he was still excited: "What His Highness wants is here!" Of course I'm happy! ”
"Really?" "Are you coming?" Two voices appeared behind Ah Fei in unison. Immediately, two young men with similar faces ran over and took the wooden box in Ah Fei's hand, also with an excited face.
Ah Fei crossed his arms and quipped: "I said, Yuan Jin and Yuan Guang, why do you two always appear together!" It's as if no one else knows you're brothers. ”
Yuan Jin glanced at Ah Fei, reached out to put his hand on his younger brother Yuan Guang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I just have a younger brother, and I envy you to death!" ”
Ah Fei pretended to be sad: "Ouch, we can't live without brothers!" ”
At this time, He Yun, who had a serious face, said: "Okay, don't make trouble!" Your Highness is here! ”
The four of them quickly stood together, as if they were a strict escort team.
As the footsteps approached, Sikong Jing, who was dressed in white, stood in front of the four of them.
Today's Sikong Jing is over eighteen years old, and he is more handsome and heroic than five years ago. It's just that his habit of wearing white clothes and smiling has not changed, the only thing that has changed is that when he thinks of someone, there will be a trace of tenderness and warmth in his smile.
"Your Highness!" Ah Fei spoke out at the right time and held the wooden box in his hand in front of Sikong Jing.
Sikong Jing stretched out his hand to open the wooden box, and there was a touch of joy in his eyes: "Not bad!" Just right for her! As he spoke, he took out a dagger from the wooden box and looked at it carefully, with a rare tenderness and pampering in his eyes.
Seeing this, Ah Fei and the other four just glanced at each other and lowered their heads.
As Sikong Jing's personal guard, he is clear about everything about Sikong Jing. Since His Royal Highness met General Ye's second daughter Ye Chuqing five years ago, His Royal Highness has put this eccentric girl on her heart.
But Ye Chuqing is a lively and free character, a little heartless, and he never knew about the affection of the prince. The prince was not easy to express, but silently waited until she passed the ceremony, and then went to ask His Majesty the lord of the country for marriage.
In order to give the future princess a gift, Sikong Jing pondered for a long time and finally came up with an idea. He personally designed and drew the picture, and then went to ask Su Yiyang, a skilled soldier with a strange temper, to create such a unique dagger.
The dagger is small and exquisite, half a foot long and two fingers wide, and it is made of a thousand-year-old dark iron that Sikong Jing sent people to find for more than two years. The dagger body is delicate and sharp, and it can be blown and broken.
Ye Chuqing likes to practice martial arts, and she also likes to play with weapons, she should be very happy to give this to her! Sikong Jing thought, gently stroking the dagger, his face was endlessly gentle and doting.
Suddenly, a voice from the gate of the courtyard broke the silence: "I think your thoughts are probably going to be in vain!" ”
Sikong Jing looked at Sikong Yu who walked in with some puzzlement, his eyes were slightly gloomy: "What do you mean by this?" ”
Sikong Yu's phoenix eyes were slightly raised, with a signature evil smile on his face: "Don't you know, Ye Chuqing, is missing?" ”
"Missing?" Sikong Jing's heart suddenly tightened, and he clenched the dagger in his hand: "What's wrong with her?" ”
Sikong Yu looked at his nervous appearance, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was even worse: "I heard that after she learned about the marriage, she quarreled with her mother, and she ...... It's gone! I guess I escaped! Sikong Yu still had an evil smile on his face.
Sikong Jing glanced at Sikong Yu and lowered his head. Sikong Yu's words, he didn't doubt it. Although Sikong Yu looks good, unruly, and bad, he knows that Sikong Yu is a very responsible person and never talks to him.
For a long time, Sikong Yu saw that he had been looking down at the dagger in his hand, and couldn't help but shout: "Ah Jing, you...... You okay? ”
Sikong Jing didn't look up, but said indifferently: "Escape? Then he tightened his grip on the dagger, and the bones in his hand creaked. She actually ...... Don't want to? Sikong Jing smiled bitterly, threw the dagger in his hand back into the wooden box, and turned into the room.
The people in the courtyard looked at each other. Ah Fei moved his lips and wanted to say something, but looking at Sikong Jing's somewhat lonely back, he didn't say anything after all.
Yuan Jin asked with some hesitation: "Your Highness, what did you say...... It's true? Miss Ye...... I didn't want to marry our Highness, so I ran away from marriage? ”
Sikong Yu looked at Sikong Jing's closed door, smiled and shook his head: "The Ye family has blocked the news and is looking for it in private." I got the news through a special channel, and I can't be wrong. That girl has no heart and no lungs, Ah Jing is very affectionate to her, I'm just afraid that this time ......" Sikong Yu said this, paused, and continued: "Forget it, you are optimistic about Ah Jing, I will also look for it!" Then he turned around and walked away.
"Your Highness......" Yuan Guang looked at Sikong Jing's closed door, and wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything after all.
