Traveling through troubled times, he fled with his stepson

"Qiniang."

Li Yuan stood in front of him, his face firm and his voice normal as he said:

"I originally thought that I would take it slow and steady, and I didn't want you to be embarrassed." He said this with a slightly gloomy look, "That's how it was originally."

This is what he and Jiu Lan said, and this is what they did in the past few years.

But as he was speeding on the road in the wind, he suddenly stopped thinking about it.

Life is short, Jiulan already seems to understand everything, so how long will it take for Qiniang to understand?

What if he gets it right someday and does it to others? Will he rob the prisoners and then become disgusted with Qi Niang?

It would be better for him to get the moon first and let Qi Niang have a place in her heart. He knew that his behavior was not honorable, and there was a suspicion of forcing Qi Niang.

But in the future, who can guarantee that Qinnan will always be treated well?

He is neither a good man nor a perfect man, but when it comes to loving Qinniang, he can do his best.

Qi Niang values ​​feelings, and even if he were to reveal this shameful feeling to her, she would not be able to abandon him.

He had calculated this accurately and had been able to get through all these years.

"Qiniang, take your time to think about it. I won't force you. I just want you to understand that I am a man now. Although I don't have much, I can give it all to you. I will treat you better than anyone else."

Li Yuan wanted to say something, but when he saw Wei Qiqi's ugly expression, he stopped talking.

Wei Qiqi's hands were shaking slightly. She didn't expect Li Yuan to explain everything so clearly and in such an embarrassing way.

"Xiaobao... Li Yuan, let me ask you, have I ever done anything that caused you to misunderstand?"

"Never."

"Did I say anything ambiguous?"

"Not yet."

"Then why!?"

Wei Qiqi was so angry that her voice was a little shrill. She felt a little regretful after she yelled, but Li Yuan's expression did not change, which made her regret disappear without a trace.

"I don't know where the feelings come from, so I naturally have no way to tell you."

Li Yuan is now adamant and no matter what Wei Qiqi says, it has no effect on him.

"Since I dare to tell you this, I am naturally prepared to be scolded and beaten by you. But Qi Niang, I only ask you to face my feelings squarely no matter what, and stop treating me like a child."

Wei Qiqi didn't know what to say to Li Yuan, who was now stubborn, so she just took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

Silence spread between the two.

After a while, Li Yuan spoke again and talked about something else.

"Qiniang, Yizhou is safe now. I want to take you to live in Yizhou."

This made Wei Qiqi laugh angrily: "You, you want me to go to Yizhou with you?"

Li Yuan pursed his lips.

"Come on, I'm not going." She refused coldly. She was angry that this damn kid didn't give the two of them a chance to escape or cover up, and laid everything out nakedly.

"Since we paid a price to take Yizhou, we naturally have to defend it. Jiguan Mountain cannot be lost, and someone needs to guard it, so I won't go." Wei Qiqi explained.

Since they were talking about other things, Wei Qiqi might as well talk about what she had been thinking about.

"We can't keep being half bandits and half militarists. As our numbers grow, we need rules, iron rules and a hierarchy. We can't let others call you the boss anymore. Think about the name of our army yourself."

Li Yuan blinked, indicating that he had heard it.

"Also, it's so cold, go change those damn gaudy clothes you're wearing, or you'll freeze to death."

After saying that, Li Yuan lowered his head to look at himself, then looked at Wei Qiqi in confusion.

"Go back to Yizhou as soon as possible so that we can both calm down."

After saying this, he left Li Yuan there and left without mercy.

Only Li Yuan was left there, with the corners of his mouth slowly widening. At least Qi Niang was not so heartless as to sever ties with him.

Now that the matter has been made clear, the rest is up to you.

Wei Qiqi was so angry that she didn't see Li Yuan for several days.

After a few more days, the weather became colder and colder. The refugees in Jiguanshan are now living well. Their former brothers have found a place to live in Yizhou and will not come back, so these people have developed feelings for Jiguanshan.

Wei Qiqi took good care of these people. After half a month, their faces had become refreshed and no longer lifeless. Although they had some energy, they were people who had experienced desperate situations after all, so their mentality was still a bit dull.

Ye Yuanxin came in at this time, "Master, the boss is here."

"not see."

"He said he knew you didn't want to see him, so he just wanted to tell us about the situation. In a few days, the families of those refugees will arrive, and he will go back with the people they are escorting."

Ye Yuanxin said, Wei Qiqi frowned unconsciously.

"Just these few days?"

"Just these few days."

Ye Yuanxin really couldn't understand what was wrong with the two masters, but she didn't dare to ask too much. Although she was curious, she answered honestly.

"Never mind, let him in."

Wei Qiqi sighed, and Ye Yuanxin went out. After a while, a figure lifted the door curtain and entered the room.

The moment Li Yuan came in, Wei Qiqi felt that the whole room was different, as if a safe place had been forcibly invaded.

"I heard from Yuan Xin that the families of the people in Jiguanshan are coming over."

Li Yuan nodded: "Yes, these people were originally meant to check and balance the refugees. Now they are no longer needed and it is not appropriate to keep them in Yizhou, so I sent them here."

"They are all family members, women and children."

"Okay, I'll arrange it then."

The topic ends here. They were not talkative people before, but they were definitely not like now when they have nothing to say.

"Li Yuan."

Wei Qiqi thought about it and decided to explain things to this person.

"You go to Yizhou first, and I'll go there in the spring." She made her decision first, and then continued, "Calm down and think carefully about whether you were acting on impulse..."

"Qiniang, I won't say it just on impulse. If I say it, I must have thought it through."

When it comes to emotional issues, Li Yuan doesn't want to be ambiguous. He wants Qiniang to see his feelings clearly.

"You calm down for a while, and I calm down too. How about you and I both seriously put this relationship aside for a while and think about the consequences of this?"

Wei Qiqi said in a kind voice.

Li Yuan looked at Wei Qiqi. She was dressed very simply and plainly, but her gorgeous appearance could not be concealed.

"What does Qi Niang want?"

"Want you to spend two or three months with me in Jiguan Mountain and Yizhou until spring?"

Wei Qiqi nodded.

Li Yuan was silent for a while, "Okay, if Qi Niang wants to do this, then let's do it."

After getting the answer, Wei Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as you give her some space to breathe, she really can't handle it in such a short time.

"By the way, I asked the craftsmen to make a new batch of things. I thought they would be of great use. Take a look."

As he said this, he handed the finger cannon in his hand to Li Yuan.
