Chapter 22: The Truth

Chen Jiaojiao got up early in the morning, didn't go to Qi Yanna first, and went to find the Yu family first.

"Mother, I've thought about it, and so has my heart. I like Ah Wu, whether he is Ah Wu or His Majesty. I like him all. ”

Yu Shi looked at her serious expression and nodded for a moment, "It's good." ”

"Didn't you tell me the secret?"

Chen Jiaojiao sat down anxiously, he couldn't hate her just because of the torture she was a child.

And yesterday she felt that he liked herself a little, and that like it had been buried for a long time.

"Jiaojiao, I want you to understand that you won't treat him well because of guilt, will you?"

"I'm by his side because I like him."

"Okay." Yu nodded and poured water, "It's just a story of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, and En will take revenge." ”

"I met your father when I was thirteen years old, and he was a guest invited by the Yu family. Your grandfather was a rough man, and he climbed to the position of general with his hands and with his life.

I was also different from the girls in the capital since I was a child. Climbing over walls, riding horses, catching birds, your father said at that time that your temperament is really similar to me.

The first time I saw him as a man dressed in white, gentle and bookish, and when he called me with a smile, I liked him at first sight.

I asked my father to make him a guest of our family, and he was relieved to gain fame in our family.

I like him, so help him.

He likes me, so he works hard for me to get your grandfather's approval.

Later, I introduced him to Qi Huanqing. ”

Hearing this surname, Chen Jiaojiao frowned, twisted the corner of the clothes in her hand and continued to listen.

"At that time, the emperor was incompetent and greedy, the government and the opposition were in chaos, the traitorous ministers were in charge, and your father was ambitious.

I led him to meet Qi Huanqing, the little grandfather of the Protector's Mansion.

They hit it off at first sight, talked happily, and their ambitions in the world also hit it off.

I have some military power in my hands, not to mention Qi Huanqing's hands. The tiger talisman is in his hand, and the whole country is the army of the whole country under the order.

Your father entered the court, and he vouched for him after his death.

In the end, he took down the stormy country.

Qi Huanqing said that he could martial arts, but he couldn't write. Your father is well-deserved for his ability to write and martial arts.

After your father ascended the throne, I also became queen.

We knew that he had no intention of ruling the opposition at all, and was full of only the safety of his wife and the country.

I said, he can't die, if he dies, no one will die for you, no one can stop here. ”

Yu's voice was low and light, as if he was whispering. Tears welled up in his eyes, and his eyes widened.

Chen Jiaojiao was chilled, as if she had probably guessed.

It's just that her father and mother shouldn't be like this in her heart.

"We drove him to the North.

said that it was for Chen Anbang, but in fact, it was just isolating him in disguise.

I said, Qi Huanqing is not smart, he went happily.

Moving out of the Protectorate Mansion, and even taking his wife and everything with him, he had no intention of coming back at all.

For a long time, he only sent letters here every year to greet our bodies.

We replied like old friends.

However, everything is getting better and better, the DPRK and China are also obedient to your father, they are all confidants, and the top and bottom are stable, and the border is even better.

Your father was moved.

The tiger talisman is still in his hand, and this knife hangs over our heads, and it is difficult to sleep day and night.

On the Shangyuan Festival, we brought him back, saying that we missed him, his wife, and his son.

He also said that they are all old, so don't work hard.

Hahaha, Qi Huanqing is not smart, I said, he is not smart.

Say a few nice words, and even coax and deceive. He took more than 80,000 troops and said okay, then come back.

You haven't met him, and he says you have to bring some gifts when you see you for the first time and ask you what you want.

There are little lambs on the grassland, and I asked you if you wanted them and if they could be raised in the palace. ”

Chen Jiaojiao silently shed tears, Yu Shi had already cried out loud, coughed twice and continued to speak, as if she wanted to find an expression in one breath.

"I don't know if he brought the lamb with him.

Your father told him to bring some of the people in and some of them to be placed outside the city.

The defenders were not allowed to enter the city, and as soon as the gates were opened, they had just entered.

It's treason.

We stood on the walls and watched.

The swords met each other, but he didn't react, and he stood still in a daze.

In order to protect his wife and children, he drew his sword.

The Qi family has already been copied clean, the Protector's Mansion is clean, and the Protector is innocent.

Afterwards, your father made a name for himself and rebelled.

The glory and dignity of the Protectorate Mansion for a hundred years have been broken here. At that time, we also thought that the bloodline of the Qi family was also broken.

He hasn't seen you, and we haven't seen his son.

I really don't know.

We felt guilty but we couldn't help it, we made excuses for each other.

There's no way, it's too threatening, he brought in with his troops, and we had no choice but to do it.

Jiaojiao, I have known Qi Huanqing since I was six years old. Our two families are good friends, and I call him Brother Huanqing for more than 30 years.

They all died before me, and I brought your father to him, and I commanded them to do so myself.

You say, "Are we going to pay for our sins with death?"

Your father lost his life, and so should I. Because his wife also died, dead in the pile of corpses. ”

Yu suddenly laughed, "His child is not dead, and my child is not dead, is it fair for you to say." ”

Chen Jiaojiao stared at the crazy person in front of her, not daring to recognize that this was her mother.

The man who killed her best friend because of suspicion shouldn't have been her father.

She should be stern and gentle, and tell her to study hard, or she will be punished to sweep the floor.

He should have picked her up with a smile and said Jiaojiao, don't be afraid, we won't listen to her.

She didn't know if she could use the emperor to excuse them, but she clearly knew that she couldn't pay off the sins she owed in this life.

It's not one life, two lives, the Qi family is all dead.

Those people were his closest relatives, siblings, friends, uncles, sisters-in-law, and possibly nurses and servants.

"Mother, I'm not guilty, guilty?" Chen Jiaojiao shook her head vigorously and stood up, not daring to stay any longer, for fear of hearing words that would make her even sadder, "No, I'm guilty." ”

Their sins were also hers, and she had another layer of bullying, the bullying of her childhood.

Running on the soft snow, Chen Jiaojiao's feet were weak and she knelt and threw forward.

The snow caught her, and she didn't fall in pain, and she sat on her knees and cried for a long time.

I didn't straighten up until the pain in my heart was better.

He deserves to hate her, he deserves to hate her.

After learning this, she didn't dare to expect any possibility between them.

She walked slowly towards the Yongming Palace, wiped away her tears and couldn't see them at all before entering.

Qi Yan didn't react, he thought she wouldn't get up until this point. After calling someone to call her, I found out that she had gone to Yu's.

Chen Jiaojiao honestly stood beside him, staring at his writing hand in a daze.

He should be the little grandfather of the Protector's Mansion, galloping between heaven and earth, defending his family and country, as his father wished.

She hung her head and couldn't help shedding tears, and Qi Yan saw her as if she was about to shrink herself into a ball, snorting quietly, and wiping tears on her hands.

He frowned, as if he hadn't said a word until now.

"Crying for what?"

Chen Jiaojiao looked up in a daze, there were still tears on her little face, her eyelashes were moist, and there was a teardrop on her head, which fell down with trembling.

Qi Yan sighed, sighed, and rubbed his eyebrows very helplessly.

Supporting her head with one hand and raising her hand to sit over, Chen Jiaojiao felt sad and wanted to be close to him, sitting next to him and sobbing and shedding tears.

She didn't bother to talk to him, and wiped away her tears.

Qi Yan really didn't know what to say, and raised his hand from time to time to help her wipe it.

I knew she could cry and cry, but I didn't know she could cry like this.

He didn't say a word, and cried as soon as he came in.

As if he was looking at the wonders of the world, he looked at the sky to see how long she could cry.

didn't stop for a long time, Qi Yan's patience ran out, pinched the tip of Chen Jiaojiao's nose and got closer, "Cry again and leave you to go to the snake pool." ”

Closer, her beautiful big eyes were red and swollen like a little rabbit without a tail, sobbing and choking and not knowing what to complain about.

Qi Yan stared at her for a while, kissed her face, and tasted the taste of tears.

He propped his head on the table with one hand and wrapped the other around her waist, casually as if coaxing her, with some helpless mockery.

Chen Jiaojiao's eyes were red and her face was red, and she called out to Your Majesty glutinously.

"Who's bothering you? I didn't say anything. ”

"No, I just........ Cut your hands. ”

When she fell to the ground, she was scratched by a small pebble, Chen Jiaojiao puffed out her mouth and stretched out her index finger to reach in front of his eyes.

Qi Yan pinched her fingers and pulled them back a little further. If she hadn't pointed it out, he wouldn't have seen the wound at all.

After sprinkling Jiaojiao, Chen Jiaojiao herself felt funny and couldn't help pursing her lips.

The expression on Qi Yan's face changed even more, the tip of his tongue pushed against the roof of his mouth, and he opened his mouth for a long time and didn't know what to say to her.

"Your Majesty, don't scold me!"

Chen Jiaojiao hurriedly admitted her mistake, raised her hands and waved as if in surrender.

Qi Yan was speechless and no longer bothered her.

But after a while she shrank back to him again, and when she turned around, she met her bright eyes.

"Your Majesty, I want to follow you. Father-in-law Gao has been waiting outside, General He and Fifteen are rough people, do you need a careful person to take care of you. ”

"Who?"

Qi Yan was incredible, as if he had heard a joke, and looked at her and patted his chest.

"Me!"

"You?"

"Yes!"

"You're going to come here to serve me?"

"yes."

"Will I serve you, or will you serve me?"

"Naturally, I serve Your Majesty."

Chen Jiaojiao blinked her eyes quickly, looking confident.

Qi Yan couldn't believe it, but he had planned to keep her by his side before. Since she asked for it herself, there was no reason for him not to agree.

Nodding, it's time to come down.
