Chapter 255: Cui Qingshui's other identity
Xiang Xia only said half of what she said, and she didn't dare to say it all, for fear of falling behind. If Cui Qingshui does not change her mind, it is difficult to guarantee that she will not go to Cao Cao to complain again.
However, Xiang Xia has this self-confidence and can contain Cui Qingshui's heart. She has been with Cui Qingshui for a while, and she probably knows him better than Cao Cao.
Why?
Several nights, Xiang Summer couldn't sleep. She could hear Cui Qingshui's sobbing voice through the wall, as if she was missing her deceased relatives. It's not her to be strong, it's not her to be indifferent and ruthless, it's clear that she is a girl of flesh and blood, why should she disguise herself like this.
Xiang Xia pitied her and sympathized with her. She wants to capture the heart of this chivalrous and soft-hearted girl, if she can get Cui Qingshui's help inside, and Hua Tuo's response outside...... She seemed to have waited for that glimmer of hope, the hope of escaping.
Cui Qingshui was tying her belt, and when she heard her words, she couldn't help but be stunned. She only hesitated for a moment, "Will you eat first, or wash your face first?" ”
Xiang Xia thought she would hear the answer she was expecting, but it was obviously a disappointment to her. Xiang Xia knocked her hand off, "Get out of here!" ”
The back of Cui Qingshui's hand was beaten red, but she was silent. Without Cao Cao's orders, her task was to serve the summer. She wanted to step forward again and tie her belt.
"Get out of here! Who wants you to touch me with this skinless and faceless thing! Xiang Xia was very annoyed, she didn't want Cui Qingshui to touch her at all.
"You also put on this garment for me, and I will never need you to do such a thing for me again. Don't take the set of serving Cao Cao, use it for me the same, I'm not him Cao Cao! "Take off your clothes and put on another set for summer. The more Cui Qingshui obeyed her words, the more she couldn't get rid of it, and the more she behaved like a wooden man with no emotion and no soul, the more angry she became.
Cui Qingshui stood there, not saying a word. She knew what Xiang Xia was angry about, but her master could only be Cao Cao, and she couldn't choose to call the shots. Xiang Xia untied her clothes indiscriminately and threw them all over the ground, so she could only go up and pick them up and pat the ashes, letting Xiang Xia complain in pieces.
Suddenly, a hosta fell from the sleeve pocket of Zixiang Summer's inner coat. Cui Qingshui picked it up like this, but the next second she was stunned.
"Where did you get this hosta?" Cui Qingshui's voice trembled.
Xiang Xia frowned, why did she suddenly ask this, could it be that there was something wrong with this hosta, "Why should I tell you." ”
"Tell me! How did you get this hosta? Cui Qingshui stood up excitedly and took a step closer to her, quite forced.
"What are you doing here? You know this hosta. "Answer to Summer's question. The master and servant talked to each other, as if neither of them wanted to confess first.
Cui Qingshui didn't speak, just stared at the hosta in his hand tightly. Xiang Xia secretly speculated in her heart, it is rare to see this ice lump and when she is emotional, she must know this hairpin. Then the owner of this hairpin must have something to do with her.
Is it an enemy? Or a lover? Or a relative?
Xiang Xia snatched it from her hands, and Cui Qingshui subconsciously wanted to take it back.
"What? This is my hairpin, and you can't snatch it if you want to. Xiang Xia shook the hosta in his hand three times.
is always as witty as her, Xiang Xia quickly guessed, she started in front of Cui Qingshui, "If I don't remember, the hairpin head of this hosta seems to be engraved with the word 'Cui'." I'll take a closer look...... Yes, it's really a 'Cui' word. It's so coincidental, exactly like your last name. Let me guess if this is a token of promise from your old lover. ”
Cui Qingshui was about to refute, and took a step ahead of her in the summer: "Let's say it first, I have nothing to do with the original owner of this hosta." Don't blame me for hating for love. ”
"Who is its original owner?" Cui Qingshui learned the news that this hosta fruit was not the original of the summer, and his face became more and more excited.
"You want to know the original owner of this hosta?" Xiang Xia hooked his lips, "It's better to do this, you first tell me why you know this hairpin, what is your relationship with this hosta, and what is your relationship with its original owner." If you will tell me, I will tell you what you want to know. ”
Cui Qingshui pondered for a moment, clearly moved, but still refused to speak. Xiang Xia only has a ruthless move, "If you don't say it, I won't force you." I just put it in my underwear, and it's not an unusual thing anyway, but it should be worth a few bucks. It's better to give it one day and exchange it for a few bucks. Or if you're in a bad mood, drop it and smash it to vent. It is also possible to give it as a gift. ”
"You ......" Cui Qingshui heard this, his face was displeased, and he seemed to want to attack. Could it be that she lacks that money, she must take the hosta to vent or give it away.
"What am I? This was also given to me by someone else, and it was given to me, and from then on I am the owner of this hosta. "Straight to the summer.
Cui Qingshui turned his head away and closed his eyes. She said that she couldn't say anything about the summer, and the reason was on her side.
"This hosta ......" Cui Qingshui finally spoke, "Yes, it's a token of love." But it was the only token of love between my father and my mother. My father was a Qing official, and the people loved him, and my mother and those of us who were children respected him. My father often used his family wealth to help the victims and beggars, so even after my father was promoted to a high official, our family was never rich. My father used to say, 'I'd rather be poor than rich,' but even people like him even had people who wanted to harm him. My father was impeached, framed, and imprisoned, and then the bad news came that my father died of illness in prison, and our Cui family was finished. Unexpectedly, those corrupt officials still refused to let us go, they snuggled on Dong Zhuo's old thief back then, and acted for the tiger. Raid our property and exterminate us all......"
Speaking of this, Cui Qingshui clenched his fists, his eyes were full of anger and hatred, "Mother handed over the hosta to me and tried her best to protect me and my brother from escaping." My mother still didn't escape, and I saw her being killed. Then they found out about me and my brother, and I gave him the hosta to him and told him to hide it, and I went to lure the thieves away. Just when I was caught by them and I thought I was going to die......"
"And then?" Xiang Summer can't help but also touch the heart.
"It was the master who saved me. Then he took me in and nurtured me to this day. ”
Xiang Xia murmured, "It's Cao Cao......" In fact, she has never felt that Cao Cao is as embarrassed as the world says, and Cao Cao also has his goodness.
"Yes. I'm done talking, and now it's time for you to speak. Who is it that gave you this hosta. Cui Qingshui couldn't wait to know how this hosta could have ended up in her hands.
"To tell you the truth, I don't know exactly who gave me the hosta. One night I was in a tavern with a hangover, and when I woke up, the tavern keeper passed on the man's words to me, and gave me the hosta that the man had left. ”
Cui Qingshui hurriedly asked, "What are you talking about?" ”
"That has nothing to do with you. But if you want to know, I'll tell you too. The man just left such a sentence at the time, saying that he sent this hosta to repay Chang Banpo's life-saving grace. ”
"Saving Grace...... Have you saved him? Do you know him, do you have an impression of his appearance? Do you know his name? Cui Qingshui asked several questions in a row.
Xiang Xia thought about it carefully, "I'm going to disappoint you, I only have a one-sided relationship with him, I really don't have any impression of him, and I don't know his name." ”
Cui Qingshui lowered his eyes in disappointment, could it be him. He had received her life-saving grace, but did he suffer any calamity after that?
"Do you think that man will be your lost brother?" I ask for a summer temptation.
"Yes."
"What's your brother's name?"
Cui Qingshuihu glanced at her suspiciously, as if he was wary of her.
Xiang Xia sneered, dispelling the doubts in her heart, "If I'm not mistaken, he should be my husband's general." Maybe I've heard his name. ”
When Cui Qingshui heard this, his heart ignited expectations, and he replied, "Cui Qinghe." ”
Cui Qinghe...... Your siblings' names are good. ”
"How? Are you impressed. ”
Xiang Xia tried to think about it in his brain, and finally shook his head. She muttered, "There are so many generals in the army, even if he is my husband, he may not remember everyone's name." But I vaguely remember that the man was not very old, younger than you, maybe he was really your brother. And I got into some trouble at the tavern that night when I was drunk, and it is said that he had done it for me. He is an upright young man, and he also knows how to repay kindness, which should be taught by your Cui family. ”
"You're overrated." Cui Qingshui replied absentmindedly.
After so many years, every time she received a secret mission to travel, she would secretly inquire about her brother's news in various cities, but the result was disappointed again and again. She also had to be extremely careful not to be discovered by the people above. Once it is found that the secret guard has other actions that have nothing to do with the task, he will be severely punished, or even unloaded with martial arts, and deprived of the identity of the secret guard. Because the secret guard can only obey the orders of the master alone, he cannot have side thoughts, and the bottom must be 'clean'. This 'clean' meaning means that the Secret Guard does not allow any factors or handles that are subject to human control. The reason why Cao Cao chose Cui Qingshui and cultivated her to become a secret guard was not only because she was not afraid of death and dared to sacrifice, but also because her family was ruined and lonely. Cao Cao's usual method of threatening people is to arrest relatives who offend others, and Xu Shu is the best example.
