Chapter Seventy-Five: Marriage
Li Qi narrowed his eyes: "Okay, very good." Since you are willing to be a turtle with a shrunken head, it will be difficult for Li to accompany you. It is better for us to make a decision today, and from now on we will go our own way. ”
"Since Brother Li has this intention, it is difficult for Huan to persuade him, since this is the case, don't pass it away." Huan Yuan sighed.
Li Qi sneered: "It's okay to let me go, but you can live today thanks to my mediation in the palace, you should always take something to repay me." ”
"What do you want?"
"Naturally, it's the power of war." Li Qi said coldly.
Huan Ci pursed his lips, despising him for his delusional thinking.
Sure enough, Huan Yuan glanced at him coldly, and said in a low voice: "I can give you anything else, and I can't do it alone." Although it is true that I came out of the palace alive thanks to you, I will never hand over the soldiers under my command, Brother Li still has to order something else. ”
"Okay, you," Li Qi crossed his waist angrily, "you ungrateful bastard, I really regret saving you." ”
Huan Ci propped his chin and watched him jump up and down like a monkey. Let him scold him, anyway, the military power will definitely not be handed over.
After scolding angrily for a long time, Huan Yuan and Huan Ci were still indifferent, and Huan Ci even yawned a few times one after another. Li Qi finally got tired, sat on the stool and panted, and began to open his mouth.
Huan Ci listened boredly for a long time, playing with the teacup in his hand. After Li Qi's figure disappeared into the corner, she looked at her sad father: "Daddy, you won't be sad because he's leaving, right?" ”
Huan Yuan shook his head: "I'm just thinking about how much of the news he has sent me in the palace over the years is true and how much is false." Maybe he really wanted to avenge your mother in the first place, but now? The purpose of his doing these things has long since changed. ”
"Does he like A-Niang?" Huan Ci looked at his father with burning eyes.
"Alas," Huan Yuan sighed, "It was your aunt who liked him when she was not out of the cabinet, but after marrying me, she treated me wholeheartedly." It's just that after your aunt left, he came to the door again, and I heard that she was a distant relative of your aunt, so I helped him. I really didn't expect that your aunt was clumsy when she was young. ”
Huan Ci was noncommittal, but she didn't dare to say anything, she didn't want to be scolded again because of talking about A-Niang.
That night, Li Qi took the Queen Mother out of the city overnight, and brought a lot of things with him when he left, according to the news of the informant, he actually went to the north, and there was no good place to go further north, and there was also in the territory of Yongguo, Huan Ci couldn't help but suspect that he had already colluded with Zong Zhengche.
Early the next morning, my father ordered the house to be cleaned up and down. Huan Ci was really in the way, so he took Ayao and Zhao Qing to walk around the street, and when he went out of the house, he met Ah Lian in the outer courtyard, so there was one more person in the team.
The four of them wandered aimlessly through the streets, when they suddenly caught a glimpse of several officials in official uniforms walking towards the city gate. Huan Ci was very curious, and hurriedly hooked his hand to signal them to follow.
It turned out that those days were actually to greet the officials who came to the imperial court, Huan Ci looked at the familiar figure, and unconsciously sighed at the patience of Zong Zhenglu. My father had clearly refused no less than three times, and he still kept sending people to persuade him to surrender.
"Girl, it's Gongzi Kong, the emperor actually sent him to sue for peace." A-Yao shook his arm excitedly.
Huan Ci looked at Ah Yao helplessly, and said softly: "Then you go over to find her, Ah Lian, you go with him and send them to the mansion." ”
"What are you going to do?" The UAE raised an eyebrow.
"I can't lose it, go quickly." Huan Ci pushed him and urged.
Seeing the two of them walk over unhurriedly, Huan Ci smiled with satisfaction and said loudly: "Zhao Qing, I'll take you to go shopping, I'm more familiar with Daizhou than them." ”
After not hearing the woman's response for a while, she looked back in confusion as the man who was close to her gasped.
"Be cautious."
Fu Shen lowered his eyes and looked at her face, which was a little fatter than before: "It's me." ”
"You, you, how did you end up here?" Huan Ci stammered, "You're here for peace talks?" ”
"No," Fu Shen's mouth hooked slightly, "I'm here to find someone who has escaped." ”
"I didn't run away." Huan Ci Nunu's mouth showed concern in an instant, "You mean that you came to Daizhou without permission, and others don't know." ”
"yes, it's up to you whether I can get out of here alive." Fu Shen said softly.
Huan Ci hurriedly dragged her to the shop next to her, and the officials from the imperial court were at the gate of the city, and he dared to stand here.
"Strange, where did you take Zhao Qing?"
"It's just to invite her to tea, and someone will send her back later."
"Your people are very strong in martial arts, and I didn't even notice it." Huan Ci hummed dissatisfiedly, and suddenly remembered what Fu Shen had told his uncle.
I wonder how much he knows now?
Huan Ci looked at him and asked cautiously, "You and your uncle?" ”
"It's okay, he has pleaded guilty, and the case will be transferred to Dali Temple, and I will see it after I return to Beijing."
"He pleaded guilty? What sin do you recognize? ”
"It's nothing, you don't have to worry about it." Fu Shen touched her face and asked, "Tell me why you ran away first." ”
Huan Ci stuck out his tongue: "I don't know which one was stabbed a thousand times, but he lied to me that my father was seriously ill, causing me to rush back overnight, but my father stood up and scolded me." ”
Hearing him say this, Fu Shen has already made a judgment, who else could do it, it must be the attendant named Ah Lian. He blinked lightly and rested his head on Huan Ci: "I'm tired, I want to rest." ”
"Huh? When did you get to Dayzhou? Isn't there a place to rest? Huan Ci asked, holding his shoulder.
"I arrived last night. How dare I stay in Daizhou, so I had to find a straw stack outside the city and stay overnight. Fu Shen lied casually.
Huan Ci hurriedly dragged him to look left and right, and touched his forehead with the back of his hand, which was really hot: "Are you crazy?" Won't you find some black shops to live in? ”
"Do you still have a black shop in Daizhou?" Fu Shen looked at her amusedly.
Huan Ci twisted him and snorted coldly: "How can it be that Daizhou has?" There are also a lot of them in Puzhou, but only the ones in the capital are difficult to find, which almost caused me to live on the streets. ”
Fu Shen chuckled softly and looked at the woman sleepily. He was really tired, he had never rested well these days, and now he suddenly wanted to sleep well when he saw her.
Huan Ci's eyes rolled slightly, and he was thinking about where to go. Although there was a black shop here, she really didn't dare to let Fu Shen live. But he couldn't live in a serious inn, and the palace didn't dare to think about it, where else could he go?
"I see." Huan Ci suddenly patted his thigh and looked at Fu Shen excitedly.
"What?" Fu Shen was confused.
Huan Ci hurriedly grabbed his hand and walked out, grinning, "I know there is a place where you can live." ”
It was a small courtyard that her father had built here, because her uncle's family lived here when she was young, and her father occasionally came to visit them, but he didn't want to trouble them, so he bought a yard nearby, but I don't know if anyone lives there now.
Huan Ci ran away with Fu Shen and saw that the courtyard was locked, and it looked clean from the outside.
"Let's go over the wall and get in." Huan Ci winked at Fu Shen.
Fu Shen shook his head helplessly: "How many people's walls have you climbed?" ”
"If someone asks me to go up, I can't get it?" Huan Ci pushed him and said coquettishly, "You carry me up." ”
The walls of this place were higher than the others, and it took a lot of effort for the two of them to get in. There was some dust in the yard, but the inside of the house was fairly clean, just a little damp.
Huan Ci rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile: "Shall we clean up here?" ”
She was just about to get up, when she was stopped by the waist, and in the blink of an eye, she sat on his lap with her back to the man.
"Ah Ci." Fu Shen's voice was extremely low, and he felt itchy in his heart when he heard it.
She looked back at the man in surprise: "Aren't you sleepy, hurry up and rest, I'll dry the quilt in this room." ”
"Huh? There is no hurry. ”
The man's snort snorted in her ear, and Huan Ci swallowed involuntarily.
"You don't think so?"
Before she could finish asking, the man's face was already closer, Huan Ci hesitated for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, he threw the courtesy, righteousness and shame out of the clouds.
This place was originally secluded and dim, but now there are only the two of them, and they don't have to worry about being disturbed, and the two haven't seen each other for a long time, so they tossed for a long time before stopping.
Huan Ci's eyes were misty, panting and leaning in the crook of the man's arm, looking at the beam above his head, and asked in a low voice, "Amer, do you want to get married?" ”
"With whom?"
She was shocked by Fu Shen's response.
Huan sat up and gently pinched his waist: "Who else do you want to marry?" ”
"I'm afraid I'm delusional." The man's eyes were full of loss.
Huan Ci opened his mouth, held his face and asked, "Amer, why don't we get married now?" It is here that the church is worshipped. ”
Fu Shen squinted at her, as if wondering if she was serious. Huan Ci was a little depressed, and reached out and patted his head: "I'm serious, do you dare?" ”
"Humph!" Fu Shen sneered, not admitting or denying it.
"Then I'll go find a pen and paper now, and we'll go write a wedding letter, and then visit the church."
Huan Ci quickly jumped out of bed and rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find something.
When she spread out the paper and ink, the man had already got off the bed, approached step by step, and finally surrounded her from behind: "Ah Ci, I can't regret writing a marriage letter." ”
"I don't regret it." Huan Ci looked back at the man's side face.
"Okay." Fu Shen replied in a low voice, holding her hand and slowly putting pen to paper on the paper.
*
At night, Ah Yao looked at Huan Ci, who came back alone, and pulled her to look around: "Girl, where have you been, scared us to death, Zhao Qing thought he had lost you." ”
"I can't find you, so I'll go shopping on my own." Huan Ci blinked, "I'm tired, I want to rest, let someone boil water." ”
"Has the girl eaten?" A-Yao asked with a frown.
Huan Ci nodded, and hurriedly drove her away. When she lay on the bed, she took out the marriage certificate from her arms, and a smile appeared on her face. Thinking of what Fu Shen had done in front of the bookcase today, she hugged her head in shame, and finally fell asleep in this happy and tired mood.
