Chapter 13: Forbearance
When I woke up again, what I saw was Nan Qiao.
But what he saw was Nan Qiao's back, which was thin and indescribably lonely. It's slowly leaving.
I think it was because he slept too long and didn't wake up until the afternoon, and Nan Qiao didn't worry about him before he came to visit him.
I also knew the reason why Nan Qiao turned around and left, because there was a woman lying on his bed. A poorly dressed woman.
Seeing that Nan Qiao's back was covered by the shadow wall, he raised his hand and pushed the woman off the bed, and said angrily: "Get out." ”
The woman knelt on the ground aggrieved and frightened and said, "It's the meaning of the red girl." ”
She meant red yeast rice.
When I met again, I felt a pain in my heart, and I only said, "Go out." ”
He didn't dare to chase Nan Qiao all the time, he was afraid that he would see him.
He was afraid to see Nan Qiao's eyes, afraid to see his pale and painful and forbearant face.
I also encountered an impulse to die of powerlessness.
But it's really not that easy for a demon slayer like them to die.
After the first seven days of the old marquis, there were more people walking around the Nanhou Mansion.
Yan Hengqiu, the emperor of the Great Calendar, specially sent a carriage and a horse to take Nan Qiao into the palace, after all, the death of the old marquis was a big loss to the Great Calendar Kingdom.
And Nan Qiao, the son of the old marquis, has no brothers and sisters, and at this time, he is quite lonely in the eyes of the Emperor of Dali.
The old marquis Nanlin is a civil and military all-rounder. He was innocent and dignified all his life, and he was crowned a marquis with martial arts, which was also rare under the atmosphere of Chongwen in the Great Calendar Kingdom.
There are two people in the army of the Great Calendar Kingdom who can directly mobilize the whole army, one is the current emperor, who holds the dragon pattern talisman. This talisman is yin and yang, and it is a complete talisman.
The other is the old marquis of Nan, who has a tiger striped talisman in his hand. It is also a complete talisman of yin and yang. These two talismans are known as the Dragon and Tiger Talismans.
Any one of the Dragon and Tiger Talismans alone can directly mobilize the army of the Great Calendar Kingdom.
Under normal circumstances, the talisman is held jointly by the military department and the generals who are outside. The talismans of the military department and the generals are half a piece, half a piece of the military department, and half a piece of the generals. They can only mobilize their armies by integrating them into a single piece.
Just from the military talismans, you can see how powerful the Hou Yefu is.
Nanhou Mansion is not only the object of the ministers of the court and the central government, but also the object of the princes of the Great Calendar.
It can be seen that the status of the old marquis of Nan in the eyes of the emperor. It can also be seen that the old marquis of Nan made contributions to the Great Calendar Kingdom during his lifetime.
It is said that when the old marquis was young, he had excellent martial arts, and once relied on the power of one person to rescue the young emperor Yan Hengqiu, who was only a prince at that time, and rescued him safely from the siege of thousands of people. And he protected him on his chest and traveled hundreds of miles overnight.
Because Yan Hengqiu, the young prince of Dali, once worked as a proton in Daqing Kingdom.
That year, there was a civil strife in Daqing, and the usurpers wanted to kill the protons of various countries, so as to blame the Daqing monarch and provoke the disgust of various countries towards the Daqing monarch.
It just so happened that Nanlin, who was the frontier guard at the time, overheard the news. He chose a few strong guards to disguise and infiltrate the Daqing Kingdom.
On a dark and windy night, he guarded Daqing with his hand, and rescued Yan Hengqiu, the prince of Dali, with lightning speed.
It is said that this action of that year directly led to the encroachment of Daqing and civil strife, which ended in failure.
Because it is said that Nanlin did not act alone at that time, he also sent his own guards to send secret letters to the garrisons of the surrounding countries.
The garrisons followed suit and secretly sent the strongest samurai to Daqing to rescue the protons of various countries.
These unwitting warriors of various countries have attacked the plans of the usurpers of the Great Calendar Kingdom. While they were distracted, the monarch of Daqing reorganized his internal guards and pretended not to know that he had booby-trapped the trespassers.
In short, Nanlin is also a well-known person in the royal family of Daqing Kingdom.
Nan Qiao's courage and martial arts inherited his father's bravery.
When he was seventeen years old, he began to participate in the annual hunt of the children of the nobles, and in the royal upper garden, he was the champion of the top three, whether it was hunting or duel with Ouchi masters.
Nan Qiao's skills and heart made Yan Hengqiu, the monarch of the Great Calendar, see the shadow of his father Nan Lin back then. The monarch of the Great Calendar believes that the new owner of the Nanhou Mansion of the Great Calendar will also be able to take on the important task of defending the Great Calendar like the old marquis.
The Emperor of Dali personally sent a carriage and horse to take Nan Qiao to the palace, saying that the Queen Mother missed Nan Qiao.
Nan Qiao only wore a plain suit, and went out with the father-in-law who came to pick him up from the palace.
When I met again, Nan Qiao got into the carriage in the palace and left slowly.
looked at Nan Qiao, who was leaving, and didn't come forward again. But there was a hint of reluctance in his heart, and he really wanted to go with him in the car at this time.
But he held back.
It wasn't until Xilan came to invite him in that he came back to his senses.
Yu Yu stayed silently and waited for him to come back in Nan Qiao's room.
He was willing to look at everything in Nan Qiao's room, after all, there was the breath of Nan Qiao here.
waited until dusk and didn't wait for Nan Qiao to come back.
He walked out of Nan Qiao's mansion again in the air, and walked alone in a little light in the evening. The back is indescribably lonely.
He only had to leave for a cup of tea, and Nan Qiao's carriage and horse returned.
It was just getting dark. The courtyard of Nanhou Mansion has just been lit up.
Xi Lan took the box from Nan Qiao's hand at the door and helped him out of the car.
When he was about to enter the gate, Xilan said: "I have been waiting for you for another day and just left." ”
Nan Qiao was stunned for a moment. Then he turned and walked out the door.
The night wind lifted his coat, and his people departed as fast as the wind.
Xilan chased to the door and found that Nan Qiao had been drowned in the night.
Nan Qiao knew the location of the house where he met again, and when he chased him all the way, he saw from a distance that he was drunk again, staggering with his head hanging and his sideburns scattered on his shoulders.
He followed and met again, and followed him two streets.
In the end, Nan Qiao stopped, because he saw Mei Ji waiting outside the door again.
When I looked up at Mei Ji who was guarding the door, I knew that it was the arrangement of the red yeast.
He knew it must be Nan Qiao coming.
He tried to turn back again, but he stood against the wall. I resisted the thought of turning back.
Two Meiji ran over in broken steps.
At that moment again, I almost heard the sound of my heart tearing like a crack.
He couldn't help but look back, but he only saw the back of Nan Qiao leaving. The clothes are fluttering, and the back is thin and lonely.
Tears fell from the eyes of the re-encountered. He lowered his head, and with a wave of his sleeves, the two Meiji retreated.
Suddenly his figure suddenly rose, and he chased in the direction of Nan Qiao. In an instant, he was in front of Nan Qiao.
Nan Qiao was obviously taken aback, and then a little smile appeared on his pale face: "You ......"
"I ......" looked at Nan Qiao again, lowered his head again, and looked up at him again. He was too afraid that Nan Qiao would see the worry and reluctance in his eyes.
Pretending to be an understatement, he asked, "You went to the palace and came back so late today, is there anything wrong?" ”
Nan Qiao stared straight at Youyu and said, "The emperor announced that I would enter the palace and grant me my father's title." Later, the Queen Mother asked me to go to her palace for a pleasantry. ”
"Nothing else?"
"The Queen Mother wants to marry the eldest princess to me." Nan Qiao looked at the face of the encounter again.
He bowed his head again. The long eyelashes covered the eyes, and in the dim light, a thick shadow cast over the face.
"I refused." Nan Qiao stared at the face of the encounter again.
"How can you brush off the Queen Mother's decree?" I'm a little worried.
Nan Qiao didn't speak.
He didn't know why he wanted to brush off the queen mother's decree. In short, even if it is a crime, he will not take it to heart.
Fame and fame are no longer so important to him. Even life.
"You have to take care of yourself." He whispered again.
Nan Qiao looked at him and nodded.
The sound of red yeast rice came from the wind, "Xianggong-"
I really want to kill someone at this time. But he still looked at Nan Qiao a little crampedly.
Nan Qiao's expression became bleak again. Turned around and walked away without saying a word.
He silently followed Nan Qiao again, like a ghost, as if his soul was out of his body.
It wasn't until Nan Qiao disappeared around the corner of the street that he squatted down silently. Curled up like a half-dead man.
Nan Qiao never looked back at him from beginning to end.
Even if you have to endure such pain every day, you can still see Nan Qiao. There was a hint of satisfaction in my heart.
After all, he had been alone for decades waiting without a word, and the loneliness and loneliness of longing were like a bone erosion, and sometimes mixed with despair.
He was afraid that Nan Qiao would not be able to bear such an ordeal, so he went against the sky in advance.
After all, Nan Qiao's old consciousness flashed with inspiration was still a wordless divine sense.
When he was speechless, he had never been afraid of destiny. As long as he encounters something related to another encounter, his determination makes him afraid.
When he returned to his mansion, he had an argument with the people of the Dementor Hall for the first time.
There was no word before, he didn't need to say anything, and he never seemed to have quarreled with anyone over anything.
This time he quarreled with Red Yeast.
The red yeast just looked at it coldly. After all, you rarely speak. This was the most she had ever heard and spoken.
I was drunk again, and my tongue was bigger.
"Don't push too hard, will you kill the speechless? Speechless has a strong personality, don't you know? ”
"Do you have humanity? When you force him like this, I feel more uncomfortable, and I feel worse than him. I even wanted to die with him. ”
"Don't tell me about the blood of the demon slayer, the life of the Three Realms. A demon slayer has to have thousands of years of yang life, he has to maintain thousands of years of enthusiasm and sobriety, entangled with half-demons and half-demons, how many lives and deaths he has seen, how many killings he has seen, and how many injustices he has seen. The blood has turned into blood. ”
"When he was speechless in the world, he was sober-minded, and he had to compare his money, lest he condemn the half-demon and the half-demon wrongly. lest I kill the wrong person. How does it end up? He was still hooked by the underworld, and he had to go through the torment of a nail fried and roasted. ”
I met a mortal who cried like a lost spirit, and his liver and intestines were broken.
Red Yeast Rice felt like it was really an eye-opener.
It turns out that the Soul Demon is actually like this. is a man with unknown sense, like a servant every day, like a coward at every turn.
Don't say that she quarreled with him, she didn't even finish a sentence before she heard the chatter again.
The red yeast rice was really fed up with the crazy words that it had encountered again, and it quickly turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared.
She wanted to go back to the Dementor Hall and scold Yibai.
