Chapter 226: Spring Life and Autumn Killing (3)

Gu Xiyan's smiling eyes flashed with bright tears.

Like a picture, it was fixed in Qi Maosheng's heart.

As long as his mind is free, he will think of that picture, and as long as he thinks of that picture, he feels very panicked.

As if to prove something, Qi Maosheng insisted on celebrating Gu Xiyan's birthday, and he also had to do a big job, not only invited the family members of the family, but even invited the family members of some high-ranking officials in Yandi to sing excerpts and eat flowing water banquets......

Gu Xiyan disagreed: "There are still elders in the family, and I don't have a whole birthday...... It's too extravagant and wasteful! ”

Qi Maosheng was very stubborn, and even said coldly: "Whoever is uncomfortable, give me a swallow!" ”

Does this count as three hundred taels of silver in this place?

Gu Xiyan sighed secretly, and finally relied on Qi Maosheng.

So when she appeared in front of everyone thin and weak, Liang Zhangzhu, who was mixed with the female dependents, was startled.

His face was pale, skinny, and his original touching curves were gone, as if he had some serious illness, could it be that his life was short...... So feast on it.

Seeing Gu Xiyan and having such thoughts, it was not only Liang Zhangzhu who was alone.

So a few days after Gu Xiyan's birthday, Qi Meng invited Qi Maosheng to Sixi Hutong to drink, just in time for Gu Xiyan to cough a little, Qi Maosheng was a little hesitant.

Gu Xiyan knew that it was Qi Wei who invited him to drink, and persuaded him: "You stay at home every day and go out for a walk!" Qi Maosheng thought about it for a while, but finally didn't go.

After a few more days, Gu Xiyan's illness was cured. Qi Xiao came to invite him out for a drink, and Qi Maosheng went out of the house with Qi Xiao with confidence.

Qi Xiao wanted to pull Qi Maosheng to Qi Ji's outer room in Sixi Hutong, but Qi Maosheng was reluctant to go: "I went, what happened." Don't you want us to admit her! ”

Qi Xiao saw that Qi Mao's ecology was resolute, and changed to a restaurant not far from Qi Mansion.

When Qi Yan came, he brought a few retinues. Among them was a girl. Fourteen or fifteen years old, medium build, fair skin, magnificent facial features. Exquisite curves, sweet smile, in the eyes of others, live another Gu Xiyan.

During the banquet, Qi Wei arranged for the girl to pour Qi Maosheng a glass of wine, and then let an elderly grandmother lead the girl away.

Qi Maosheng's original cold expression suddenly became gentle.

He remembered the time he drank flower wine in Dianchun Hall, and afterwards Gu Xiyan shouted, "You might as well strangle me to death with a rope", if Xiyan knew what the fourth uncle asked him to come for today, I'm afraid there would be a lot of trouble again!

Seeing this, Qi Wei and Qi Xiao both breathed a sigh of relief, and Qi Wei introduced the girl: "This is your aunt's niece." is called Yinghong, my father has also been lifted, and today I knew that you were coming, so I specially asked her to come out to show you. ”

Qi Maosheng understood in his heart that this so-called aunt. I'm afraid it's the outer room of the fourth uncle's Sixi Hutong!

He remained silent and said with a smile: "Didn't the fourth uncle have the heart to win Longwangshu, and wanted to put both of them in the house, and let my nephew come forward to help you say a few words!" ”

Qi Zhi's face turned blue: "What nonsense are you talking about." I have nothing to say to your fourth aunt, that is single-minded. ”

Qi Maosheng smiled and didn't say much, just pushed the cup and drank the wine.

Halfway through the wine, when Qi Zhi's face was flushed, he finally opened his mouth: "I know you like to be like your niece and daughter-in-law, and you have been looking for the old man for a long time." I just found it, it's better to take the house...... It should be a little bit of heart for me and your fourth aunt. ”

Qi Maosheng drank all the wine in the cup with a smile and said, "If you drink too much, go back first!" As he spoke, he ignored Qi Zhi's shouting behind him, and walked out of the restaurant without looking back.

Qi Xiao rushed out and found a secluded alley with him to go to the Yanguo Mansion.

"Fourth Uncle is well-intentioned, don't get me wrong...... Heirs are a big deal. ”

Qi Maosheng walked forward silently. Qi Xiao followed him like a shadow.

The two walked to the gate of the Yan Guo Mansion.

The plaque with four big characters written "Yanguo Mansion" shines brightly under the illumination of the red lantern.

Qi Maosheng stood at the mouth of the alley and looked at the plaque across the street. He said in a deep voice: "Fansheng, have you ever felt this way?" ”

"What?" Qi Xiao was puzzled.

"That one called Yinghong doesn't look like Xiyan." Qi Xiao was silent for a long time. Said: "Except for the eyes, everything is like." ”

Qi Maosheng was silent for a long time.

"The first time I saw Yinghong, I thought in my heart, this little girl, she looks okay, but she is too plump......" In Qi Maosheng's voice, there was a kind of grief that made Qi Xiao feel very strange.

Qi Xiao looked at Qi Maosheng in surprise.

Qi Maosheng's always bright eyes flashed with rare confusion: "When I first saw Xiyan, I thought in my heart, this girl is so young, but ...... Curvy ...... Breathtaking......"

"Second brother......" Qi Xiao finally heard something.

Qi Maosheng hit the wall on the side with a punch, and in the crackling sound, a hole was pierced in the wall, which was particularly loud and harsh in the silent night.

The soldiers patrolling next to the Guogong Mansion surrounded this side and shouted, "Who is it? ”

The faint moonlight reflected a dazzling white light on the snow, reflecting Qi Maosheng's bleak and sad face.

He looked at his bleeding fist: "Fansheng, I can't help it...... I can't help it...... I don't know what to do if I can't give birth, I don't know what to do......"

This kind of Qi Maosheng is something that Qi Xiao has never seen.

The Qi Maosheng he knows is sad and high-spirited, confused and determined......

Instead of standing in the night alley and crumbling like now.

"Second brother!" Qi Xiao stepped forward to support Qi Maosheng, and there were already soldiers on the opposite street who were coming towards this side like a tide.

Qi Xiao hurriedly made a gesture to the attendant behind him, and someone stepped forward and walked out of the alley in a few steps. I went to negotiate with the soldiers.

"We are Grandpa Guo's personal guards!"

"Get the waist card!"

Not far away, the sound was clearly audible.

But Qi Maosheng and Qi Xiao stood in a secluded alley, as silent as another world.

Qi Maosheng seemed to have exhausted all the strength of his body, and leaned on Qi Xiao's body.

"I'm in Shengjing, and I'm worried about whether she will marry a non-human; I was in Hongtai to supervise the war, but my mind was full of only wanting to see her; I knew that ......"

knew how important that private seal was, but left it in Xiyan's hands...... Even when his heart was broken like this, Qi Maosheng was reluctant to say this sentence, and he didn't want Qi Xiao to know where the private seal was...... If one day, Xiyan really has no heirs, and she is ahead of her again. With this private seal, she can choose one to inherit the knighthood...... There should be no problem with food and clothing......

These thoughts flashed through me, but my heart was so painful that I couldn't speak.

It's really to that point, lonely Xiyan, such a strange temper, who will tolerate her and spoil her......

Qi Maosheng clutched his chest, and the pain made him bend down: "I know that I can't do it, but I don't distinguish between public and private...... With one eye open and one eye closed, let her use the flying pigeon to send a message......"

looked at Qi Maosheng's painful expression. Qi Xiao didn't know how to answer.

He cleared his throat and comforted Qi Maosheng in a weak tone: "Second brother." It's not early, so you might as well hurry home! Sister-in-law is still waiting for you! ”

Qi Maosheng looked up at the gate of the Yanguo Mansion and said gloomily: "Fansheng, I want to go back, but I'm afraid to go back." When she remembered it, she cried bitterly, but she forced a smile in front of me, thinking that I didn't know...... But I can't help it...... She wasn't feeling well, and I didn't feel good...... Yesterday, I personally went to the Guangming Temple to light a lantern for her, praying that the great god would bless her with joy and happiness as before......"

"Or, take someone in the room!" Qi Xiao thought for a long time and said, "You don't have to put it in the house, just accept it." If you give birth to a child, you will give it to your sister-in-law to raise, it is the same. ”

Qi Maosheng's eyes lit up, but he quickly extinguished: "Your sister-in-law, you won't agree." ”

"Why?" Qi Xiao was puzzled, "The second brother likes her so much, and he doesn't want to take a concubine, but just to take a room...... And there is no loss at all to her status. Why didn't she agree? ”

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Qi Maosheng's mouth: "If all she wants is status." So what's so hard to do. But the problem is, she doesn't care about those ...... at all," he thought of Gu Xiyan's hysteria after he went to the Spring Hall that time. "I felt like I had lost my heart, for fear that she would be a little unsatisfactory, and I took care of her everywhere...... Mrs. Wei gave me a jade peach stone bonsai, saying that when my father was alive, he personally went to Shengjing Qixia Temple to find a Taoist aunt who had attained Taoism...... I think, when the spring starts next year, and the war is almost over, I will also go to Shengjing's Qixia Temple......"

"No, no!" Qi Xiao looked stunned, "Second brother, do you know what you're talking about...... The son of a daughter can't sit down. Don't look at Xizhao who is respectful to us now, that's because you still need us, if you go to Shengjing, then there is no return......"

Qi Maosheng's confused eyes gradually brightened, and he slowly straightened up: "Go secretly, it'll be fine...... If I don't go, I won't give up...... If you haven't ...... yet" Speaking of this, the corners of Qi Maosheng's eyes flashed with crystals, "It's not too late to think of a way......

He stood silently in the shadows under the wall, as silent as a sculpture.

In the sound of falling snow, it was soon the wax moon again.

Gu Xiyan spends most of his time embroidering lotus for Qi Maosheng, and occasionally goes to the glass shed to look at the radishes that have grown green.

Qi Maosheng was not used to being so quiet, and often called Cui Shi to accompany Gu Xiyan to play cards.

Gu Xiyan always smiled and obeyed, but there was no joy in his eyes.

Gradually, Qi Maosheng's stay in Qinyuan became longer and longer, Duan Niang reminded Gu Xiyan several times, Gu Xiyan was sometimes silent, sometimes raised his head and said softly: "Don't make noise with me, I want to embroider the most beautiful purse for Maosheng!" ”

One day, Duan Niang finally couldn't help it, and snatched Gu Xiyan's embroidered bandage: "What's wrong with you?" ”

Gu Xiyan looked at the fingers that were cut by the silk thread due to Duan Niang's embroidery bandage, and said with a smile: "I thought that Mao Sheng and I still had a lifetime, so we were always lazy...... Now, I just want to embroider a purse for him. Speaking of which, Mao Sheng married me, and he didn't enjoy a day, and he was always noisy with me......"

Duan Niang looked at the plum blossoms with dense stitches and lush petals in her hand, and then thought of the unfinished meaning of Gu Xiyan's words, and finally couldn't help but fall tears.

"Didn't you say it, will you find a way? You're still young, maybe you'll have a ...... in a few years."

Gu Xiyan looked at the snow outside the window and was silent.

If it weren't for Li Chaoyang, he might still have confidence...... He used to be the emperor, and he couldn't do it with the strength of the whole country, so why could he do it......
