Chapter 40: From the Imperial Family
This smile seemed to touch the depths of Zhou Qingyun's heart, and he hurriedly looked away and said, "An Yun, you're back" There was a hint of excitement hidden in his tone.
Su Qingmo raised her eyebrows: "Well, Zhou Qingyun, how do you know it's me" This question is a pun, not only asking now, but also asking when the two first met. And believe, he understands.
When Zhou Qingyun heard this, her body shook slightly, her eyes didn't dare to look at her, she looked into the room, and changed the topic: "Are they all asleep?"
"Well, you haven't answered me yet, how do you know it's me" Su Qingmo didn't intend to let him go.
She also asked him this question when she first saw this man, but unfortunately his answer was too general.
I really can't blame Su Qingmo for being so sharp in her questioning, after she came back from Jingli City this time, she had a lot of doubts about the man in front of her. She didn't think that he would not know about Liqing's relationship with her, so why would he lie to himself to avoid Liqing
Because of this doubt, she was uneasy all the way. She didn't dare to imagine what kind of danger the two children and the eldest sister would encounter if Zhou Qingyun was her enemy.
Zhou Qingyun was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand and closed the door: "Do you want to go and sit in my room for a while" Seeing her nodding, he walked to the front of the room diagonally opposite, pushed it open and walked in first.
Su Qingmo followed, followed him to the table and sat down.
Zhou Qingyun raised his hand and poured two cups of tea, put one cup in front of Su Qingmo, picked up one cup himself, put it to his mouth and blew it, and then took a shallow sip.
"What does Anyun want to know?"
The deep light in his eyes made Su Qingmo unable to understand. Then he said bluntly: "You are close to my goal." ”
"Anyun"
Su Qingmo directly interrupted him: "Don't tell me that you are in love with me, you know, I won't believe it." ”
When she said that she wouldn't believe it, Zhou Qingyun's hand holding the teacup tightened slightly, and his heart ached a little. Why didn't she believe him, didn't believe that her feelings for her were true, didn't believe that he was close to her without a purpose.
lowered his eyes, and the teacup in his hand was steaming, as if he wanted to hide his expression at the moment, making it difficult to see.
Su Qingmo's gaze kept locking on his face. After a while, I heard him say, "An Yun, you will never understand how much you mean to me. ”
Su Qingmo frowned, what do you mean by this
Zhou Qingyun took a deep breath, raised his eyes to meet her, a pale and miserable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and admitted: "I do know the relationship between you and the teacher who left the country, and I also knew in advance that he would come to Jingli City. That's why I'm in a hurry to take you out of Jingli City. ”
"Why" Su Qingmo frowned. She didn't think that she would have such a great charm to give him the courage to confront the national teacher of the Celestial Empire. Isn't he afraid of revenge?
What she didn't know was that Liqing's revenge had already begun on the night she appeared.
Master Su was accused of taking in spies from other countries, and after being detained, he went north to the capital overnight, and Su's house was raided that night. And all the properties under the name of Su Fu were seized and received by the imperial courts in various places during these two days.
Li Qing didn't tell her about this, and Zhou Qingyun didn't have any plans to tell her. Therefore, Su Qingmo didn't know.
"Why" Zhou Qingyun chuckled twice, and when he had laughed enough, his tone suddenly changed: "Because this time, it was he who pushed you away and I found you first." Isn't this an opportunity given to me by God, he has no ability to protect you and let you hover on the edge of life and death, how qualified is he to stand by your side, besides, you have amnesia, aren't you?"
"Well, I have amnesia. Su Qingmo nodded, seeing the relieved expression of the man opposite, he continued: "But Qingyun, Lisu and Limo are his children." In this case, do you still think that my relationship with him can be severed just like that?"
Zhou Qingyun's body stiffened slightly, the hand holding the teacup tightened again, and the white joints of the bones had no intention of letting go. Su Qingmo stared at his hand, wondering if he was going to crush the teacup if he did, if so, then she would have to sit farther away, otherwise she would definitely get her clothes wet with the splashed tea.
However, before she could move her figure, Zhou Qingyun on the opposite side put down the teacup.
The look in his eyes converged, he raised his eyes to look at her, and said in a calm tone: "An Yun, I just want to protect you from being hurt again." ”
"Liqing's character is not bad. Su Qingmo stated lightly.
Zhou Qingyun's eyes tightened violently, and the hand on the table was clenched into a fist, and the anger on his face could hardly be concealed: "That's because you don't know the real reason for your injury."
Su Qingmo paused to drink tea, and raised his eyes to look at him: "You know"
Zhou Qingyun looked back at the complicated look in her eyes: "I also asked people to check after I met you." With that, he got up and walked to the bookcase by the window, and took out a small bamboo tube from the drawer inside. Walked back and handed it to Su Qingmo: "If you can, I hope you will never see these things for the rest of your life." ”
Su Qingmo took the bamboo tube, studied it, raised his hand to pull out the plug at one end, and then turned the bamboo tube upside down, and a rolled paper fell out of the bamboo tube.
She put down the bamboo tube, picked it up and opened it slowly.
After a few breaths, Su Qingmo's hands grabbed both ends of the paper and quietly tightened, but her face did not move, her eyes were firmly fixed on the handwriting on the paper, reading it over and over again.
After a while, he raised his eyes to look at Zhou Qingyun in front of him, and asked lightly: "This is the reason why you want to take me away from the Celestial Empire because I am worried that I will be confused by him again and be hurt."
Zhou Qingyun shook his head and directly confessed his thoughts: "There is this part, but the most fundamental reason is that I don't think he is worthy of you at all." ”
First of all, the current emperor connived at him, his relationship was ambiguous and taboo, and then the current queen mother was too concerned about him, if he hadn't done anything to them, how could the two most unlikely people in the world take such care of him
How can such a temperament be worthy of her, not to mention, her suffering this time is completely due to this teacher who has left the country, if he didn't go around between those people and play with their feelings, how could the other party regard An Yun as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh
Looking up at the woman in front of him, even though she had an ugly woman's face at this time, the aura of freedom, peace and tranquility emanating from her body attracted him all the time.
Yes, he likes her, that is, it has nothing to do with her looks, and it has nothing to do with her background.
I still remember that what attracted his attention at the beginning was the free and easy aura of pursuing freedom in her.
A woman who thinks she is very decent, disguised as a man, behaves without pretentiousness, and is even more chic and open-minded than the men in this world.
Watching her unscrupulously call herself a brother and sister, drinking tea and talking with herself, she did not have the slightest self-conscious reserve and shyness as a woman. He would wonder if he really saw the wrong person, maybe she was a real man.
And her open-mindedness and chic are what he is afraid of, even if he longs for it in his heart, he doesn't dare to reach out and touch it. That's why every time she appears behind his courtyard, she chases her every move with her eyes while she is not paying attention.
If she hadn't come to say goodbye to him that night, perhaps he would have died in the winter of last year. The reason why he survived the inhuman pain was because he always adhered to a belief in his heart that he couldn't let her down, and he couldn't really only face a pile of loess when she came back to find herself next year.
When he woke up, the man said to him: "Now that he has broken out of his cocoon and become a butterfly, there is no reason to retreat." If it is a worm, it will nest in the soil and wait to die. That is, it has turned into a dragon, and it will always soar for nine days.
Yes, God brought him back to life, and the ants who had caused him pain in the past had no need to live.
And she has become a lifelong belief in letting him live.
Su Qingmo didn't speak, her mind was a little confused. I always felt that what was written on this note was not at all close to the man in my memory.
However, there is no reason for Zhou Qingyun to deceive himself, right.
He got up with the note and went to the candlestick, took the torch and lit it, and put the note on the flame. Paper is a fragile thing, and it turns to ashes when it is cremated.
Su Qingmo gently blew the ash that fell on her fingers, and turned her head to look at Zhou Qingyun: "No matter what, he is the father of two children, this is a fact, and no one can change it." ”
Zhou Qingyun's palms tightened, and his eyes were full of gloom: "So, even if you already know his character, you still have to be with him, right?"
"It's not. ”
Su Qingmo looked at Zhou Qingyun's originally gloomy eyes that were instantly lit up by a ray of light, making the originally handsome face a little better.
"This life is short and long, and it doesn't matter to me whether I marry or not. So, I'm not going to waste time thinking about these things right now. ”
"What do you mean?"
"No matter where you are, you are respected by the strong, and I will be attacked by them this time, which can only mean that I am useless. If your skills are not as good as others, how can you blame others and make excuses for failure. Raise your eyes and look directly at Zhou Qingyun: "Qingyun, even if my past memories have not been recovered, I know that the only person I can trust is you, right?"
When Zhou Qingyun heard this, he looked back at her quietly, then smiled slightly, put his left hand behind his back, put his right hand on his chest, and bowed slightly: "An Yun, I am honored to have your trust." ”
Su Qingmo looked at his strange etiquette, and his eyes flashed slightly: "Qingyun doesn't seem to be a person from the Celestial Empire."
"Well, I'm from Xiliang. ”
"Xiliang, so are you going to take us to Xiliang this time" A person from Xiliang grew up in the Celestial Empire, and it seems that Qingyun's identity is very mysterious.
"An Yun is willing to go back to Xiliang with me," Zhou Qingyun stared at her with sparkling eyes.
Seeing her shake her head, the disappointment in Zhou Qingyun's eyes overflowed.
But I heard her say: "Xiliang, I'll go and see sooner or later, but not now." I want to develop my own power, only in the Celestial Empire will it be smoother, Xiliang, a foreigner who wants to survive in other countries will be excluded. How will you Xiliang people allow me to develop my own power on their territory? ”
Zhou Qingyun hurriedly said: "If An Yun is worried about this, then you don't have to take it to heart, if you are in Xiliang, I can protect you without worry, help you be strong, and have two children, I will definitely be able to let them grow up safely and happily." An Yun, you believe me. ”
Su Qingmo looked at the man in front of him with an eager face, and the sincerity in his eyes was not fake at all. I felt very warm in my heart, a light smile appeared at the corner of my mouth, and I said casually: "I naturally believe in you." It's just that Qingyun's tone is so big, it seems that your status in Xiliang is not small. ”
Zhou Qingyun's body stiffened slightly, and his face was a little annoyed and seemed to be hesitating. After thinking about it for a few times, he said in a low voice: "Actually, I am from the Xiliang royal family." ”
Su Qingmo's eyes tightened, she thought that his identity was not simple, but she didn't expect that he would be a member of the royal family. Although he said it was general, she understood that his so-called royal family should be a certain prince. If not, why do you need to come to the Celestial Empire to survive?
If he is fostered and the prince is the prince, then he will definitely be involved in the future crown prince dispute. He told himself this now, isn't he afraid?
I'll denounce him myself
Su Qingmo frowned: "You don't have to tell me about such an important matter." Don't be afraid that my life experience will leak out" The more she knows, the heavier the burden in her heart, brother. What if someone and his jackal brothers kill him in the future?
