Chapter 10: Overnight in the Forest
Qin Qianjue saw that Sun Ji's expression was complicated, and knew that he couldn't accept this fact that was very different from his cognition all of a sudden, so he lowered his eyes and gently withdrew his right arm that was grabbed by Sun Ji, turned sideways against the wall, and closed his eyes.
Zhen Sun Ji pursed his lips and glanced at his empty right hand, feeling empty in his heart, he sighed almost imperceptibly, withdrew his hand, looked up and glanced at Qin Qianjue, seeing her facing him, he couldn't see her expression clearly, knowing that his actions just now hurt her, he wanted to apologize to her, but he didn't know how to speak.
In this way, the two spent the night in this small ruined temple with different thoughts.
Early the next morning, the two rushed to a nearby town to buy a lot of dry food, and then began to search for the mysterious Miao people.
"This is the forest, right?" Qin Qianjue followed Sun Ji all the way to the south, and after walking for most of the day, the two entered a forest, she looked at those towering trees, and a bad premonition began to appear in her heart.
Why is she not good at learning, knowing that Sun Ji is a prince and has not experienced such a high-risk thing as escaping, but she still blindly follows him stupidly, now that she is okay, she has come to the forest, are the two of them destined to become food for the beast?
"Of course I know this is the forest, so I don't need you to remind me so loudly." Zhen Sun Ji's eyelids jumped straight at Qin Qianjue's loud voice, this woman's lethality is really not ordinary.
"You know it's the forest? And you're still bringing me in? Are you trying to kill yourself here? Qin Qianjue saw that Sun Ji looked impatient, and suddenly the anger in her heart exploded, she put her hands on her waist, made a teapot shape, and shouted loudly with her eyes open.
He stretched out his hands, hurriedly covered his poor ears, and said helplessly: "I came to the forest because I know that the mysterious Miao people live in the depths of the forest, so we must walk through this forest to find the Miao people. ”
"You say the Hmong live deep in the forest?" Qin Qianjue asked in disbelief with wide eyes.
"Well, according to what I've gathered before, the Miao people like to live in seclusion, they have lived in the depths of the forest for generations, and they are intimately integrated with nature, so they are quite mysterious to outsiders." Seeing that Qin Qian was puzzled, he explained in detail to her.
"Since the Miao people are so mysterious, how can the person who assassinated us have the Gu poison of the Miao people?" Qin Qianjue felt that his head was too big.
"This shows that the person who wants to control you has a strong background, so that some greedy people in the Miao tribe are willing to work for him." Sun Ji's face was gloomy, and his body exuded cold air.
Qin Qianjue looked at Sun Ji's gloomy side face, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy for him in his heart.
In fact, it was not easy for him, each of his brothers was eyeing the throne, and for the throne, he resorted to all conspiracies and tricks.
"It's getting dark, let's sleep here tonight." Zhen Sun Ji looked up at the sky, and at this time, only a few remnants of the sun were left in the sky. He clapped his hands and said calmly to Qin Qianjue.
Looking at the scenery around him that had become a little confused, Qin Qianjue nodded resignedly. Begin praying in your heart that you won't be the beast's dinner tonight.
Zhen Sun Ji picked up some small branches on the ground, piled them together, lit them with flint, and then gathered around the fire with Qin Qianjue to eat the dry food he had bought in the town.
"Hehe, life is really wonderful, I didn't expect that my grandson Ji would one day eat dry food with a woman in the forest around the fire." Zhen Sun Ji shrugged his shoulders and said with emotion as he tore the steamed bun.
"Yes, life is always full of unknowns and mysteries, and I never thought that I would have the opportunity to hide in this forest with a real prince and eat steamed buns, it's really not a dream." The corners of Qin Qianjue's mouth hooked up a smile, and he said in an ethereal tone.
Zhen Sun Ji looked at Qin Qianjue's somewhat blurry side face under the fire, his heart couldn't help but skip a beat, and he changed the topic slightly uncomfortably: "The night sky tonight is so beautiful. As he spoke, he crossed his hands behind his head and lay flat on the ground, with an innocent smile like a child on his face.
Since he entered the palace at the age of 8, he has never had the opportunity to enjoy such a beautiful starry sky, and the palace is full of murderous opportunities, and if he is not careful, he will die.
"Yes, the night sky here is so beautiful, so pure, and there is a kind of soothing charm." Qin Qianjue was infected by Sun Ji's smile, and a bright smile appeared on his face.
In the 21st century, the natural environment has long been destroyed beyond recognition by greedy humans, and it is impossible to see such a real and clean starry sky.
"In fact, I have always wanted to be a chivalrous man, traveling all over the world, living in seclusion among the mountains and seas." His eyes were a little misty, and he muttered.
"You want to be a knight?" Qin Qianjue looked at Sun Ji in surprise and asked in disbelief.
"yes, why aren't you surprised, hehe, I think I should be a scheming bad guy in your heart. Actually, my dreams have always been simple, but sometimes the simpler the dream, the harder it is to achieve. Zhen Sun Ji frowned and said with some sadness.
He has always been a simple person, but sometimes the environment will change dramatically, just like he never thought about fighting for anything with others, but because of the greed of others, he lost the nurse who had a deep relationship with him, and since then he has understood a truth, there is no need for simple people in the imperial family.
Qin Qianjue understands the helplessness of being born in the imperial family, sometimes ordinary people can get things at their fingertips, but they can never get them, they can only pursue rights, and in order to get rights, they can do anything that is unconscionable.
"In fact, we just need to live with the flow, as long as we live every day, even if we don't live in vain." Qin Qianjue clasped his hands on his knees, turned his head sideways and smiled at Sun Ji and said.
There are always many unknowns in life, and we can't predict the future, so why think too much, as long as you live every day without regrets.
"You're pretty open-minded." Zhen Sun Ji looked at Qin Qianjue's smile, and felt warm in her heart, she was comforting him by saying this. But it sounds pretty plausible.
