After arresting Duan Yishu and setting up the old lady Duan, Qi Bo of course did not dare to face the old man, so he had to order the servants of Zhuangzi to deal with it carefully and ensure the safety of the old lady.
Don't listen to Huan who threatened Duan Yishu with the old lady. God, I won't let him go.Although what he did to Duan Yishu made him ready to go to hell.
But after the man was captured, Qi Bai couldn't sit still any longer. He tossed back and forth in the room for two days, only scolding the maids, servants and servants around him so much that he didn't dare to approach him. In the end, he finally took Qi Peng Called over, he asked viciously, "Duan has been locked up in prison for two days, right? No one has given him food and water these two days?"
Qi Peng quickly shook his head and said no.
Qi Bo just nodded, thought for a while and said: "You let Qingfengmingyue come over and go to the prison with me. If he refuses to sign the marriage certificate, don't blame me for using all the methods of going back to Yanlou to greet him. If Qingfengmingyue is not up to the task, so I will go back to Yanlou to ask someone who is specially trained to come over. Do you understand?"
"Ah ... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhn Unexpectedly, it turned out to force people to sign a marriage certificate.
"What was your expression at that time?" Qi Bai kicked Qi Peng angrily, and kicked Qi Peng on the head: "How can we live with him if we don't sign the marriage certificate? You didn't hear what my brother said that day?" I’m not allowed to use coercion again, so besides letting him marry me as a man’s wife, is there any other way to choose? You’ve been with me for so many days, why is your head still like a pig’s brain?”
Qi Peng had a bitter face, thinking to himself, my lord, is it my pig's brain or your brain is too talented?I've only heard of a marriage proposal, but I haven't heard of such a forced marriage. With Mr. Duan's temperament, can he agree?But he didn't dare to say these words, he quickly got up, and went to call Qingfeng Mingyue according to Qi Bai's instructions.
Leading a few people to the prison, only to find that in the huge dungeon there were only two maids who had stolen the house's goods and sold them out. Qi Bai was so shocked that he grabbed the guard by the neck and yelled: : "Where's Yi Shu? Where did you take him?"
The guard almost peed in fright, and stammered: "Duan...Mr. Duan is in the water prison. Butler Li brought someone over the other day and found two maids locked up here, saying...it's inconvenient. Just put him in a water dungeon...closed...locked up."
"Water prison?"
Qi Bai's expression seemed to be about to pass out, and all the strength in his body was sucked out in an instant, until Qi Peng anxiously reminded in his ear: "Master, hurry up to the water prison, Mr. Duan's body is so weak that he can't help those things!" Cold water..." He just woke up like a dream.
Kicking the watchman to the ground with one kick, Qi Bo ran out with lightness kung fu.
Along the way, he felt as if his heart had been plucked by life. Thinking of Duan Yishu's frail body, thinking of how he was still alive after being locked up in the water prison for two days and two nights, and thinking of the icy cold water in the water prison, he only felt his head It's about to explode alive.
Rushing into the water cell, before the guard could speak, he kicked open the door with a flying kick, and at a glance he saw Duan Yishu who was being hung up, completely submerged in the water from the waist down, with his head down, dead I don't know if I'm alive.
"Yi Shu..."
Like the roar of a wounded beast, Qi Bai ran over and cut the rope with his palm, hugged Duan Yishu in his arms, tried his breath, and there was a trace of heat, his tears flowed down instantly, and he roared with all his might : "Imperial doctor, go find me an imperial doctor, and invite me all the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital."
+ + + + +
"My lord, the situation of Mr. Duan is not optimistic. His health is already poor, and after two days of soaking in cold water, the wind and cold have entered his body. Whether this life can be saved is no longer up to us. It depends on whether God gives this opportunity, if God refuses to help, then..."
Liu Hanhai, director of the imperial hospital, comprehensively reviewed the opinions of all the imperial physicians, and reluctantly gave Qi Bai an ultimatum.
"Cough cough cough..."
A severe cough sounded, and Qi Bai rushed over. During this day, even in a coma, Duan Yishu often coughed violently.
He carefully lifted the opponent's limp body due to coma, patted him on the back, and said in a deep voice: "I don't care, since you want to compete with God, you should try your best to fight for this king, whether it is Rare medicinal materials, or some kind of genius and earthly treasure, as long as they can save Yi Shu’s life, you can tell this king, even if this king loses his life, he must get these things back.”
"My lord is serious, I will definitely try my best, but... please be prepared for what happens, let alone..." Liu Hanhai hesitated for a while, his lips moved a few times, but he hesitated to speak until Qi Bai impatiently urged him, so he sighed and said: "What's more, geniuses, precious and rare medicinal materials are not as good as Mr. Duan's own will. If he has the desire to survive, it will be easier to heal. Otherwise, He wants to die with all his heart, even the Daluo Jinxian, the lower officials, can't save him."
Qi Bai's body trembled violently, and he looked down at Duan Yishu: This face looked as beautiful as the first time he saw it, but it was much thinner.He gently stroked the slender sword eyebrows, thick and long eyelashes, the straight nose bridge, and his favorite rouge thin lips. After a long while, Fang Youyou sighed.
"If you run rampant and cover the sky with one hand, you are still a human being, not God."
The pain in his heart seemed to be twisted, but suddenly he heard a low and hoarse voice in his ears, Qi Bai was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head suddenly, seeing Duan Yishu who opened his eyes on the bed, he couldn't help shouting in surprise: " You're awake...Yi Shu, you're awake...this...that's great, imperial doctor... imperial doctor..."
"Qi Bo, I don't want to pursue the grievances between you and me anymore, I...I'm afraid that time is running out, you let me...see my mother..."
Duan Yishu's body was still so weak that he couldn't finish a sentence quickly. When his voice fell, he coughed violently again. As soon as the imperial doctors stepped into the door, they saw him coughing up a big mouthful of blood, which instantly stained him red. The clothes on the body and the list under the body.
"Yi Shu...Yi Shu" Qi Bai's voice changed in fright, and he hurriedly asked the imperial doctors to come for diagnosis and treatment.
After everyone got their pulses in a hurry, and comforted Duan Yishu, Liu Hanhai called Qi Bai out again, and whispered a few words to him, nothing more than "Life and death are up to me, Prince Ming should prepare early." " and the like.
"Fart...you just said...as long as...as long as Yi Shu survives...he won't die, I don't care, you guys give me a prescription and make medicine right away, if he dies, I'll go with him too , when the time comes, I will take all of you quack doctors to the underworld, and let you continue to treat him.”
Qi Bai was so frightened that he couldn't speak freely. After finishing his yelling, without giving the imperial doctors a chance to explain, he staggered to the back room, grabbed Duan Yishu's hand and said anxiously: "Yi Shu, don't worry, I will definitely Save you... I... I will save you, I will not let you die, never..."
Duan Yishu looked at Qi Bai who was lying on his bed and crying with a headache. This bully prince once said that men bleed but not cry, but he didn't expect that he was crying so miserably in front of him at this time.For a moment, he only felt that he didn't even have the strength to hate.
It doesn't matter what kind of heart Qi Bo has for him, whether he only treats him as a toy or if he really loves him, these are not important, he only knows that he wants to be quiet and see his mother.
"Yi Shu, you...don't be silent, what do you want to eat? Tell me...I'll get it..."
"My lord." Duan Yishu calmly interrupted Qi Bo's words. He looked into the hopeful eyes of the other party, suddenly smiled at himself slightly, and said softly: "I don't have much time, I want to see my mother, but I don't know if the lord can Do you allow..."
Qi Bai's face turned pale in an instant.The hand holding Duan Yishu trembled violently, and it took a long time to stammer out a few words: "As long as... as long as Yi Shu can recover, I... I will take the aunt into the house..."
"What are you doing in the mansion? Let my mother watch me being manipulated and possessed by you like a woman every day?" Duan Yishu suddenly sneered, and seeing Qi Bai's face turn paler, he felt a tinge of joy in his heart Out: "My lord, I just said that no matter how domineering you are and cover the sky with your hands, you are no bigger than God. Now, God has pity on me and wants to take back my life so that you will never have the chance to humiliate me. Mother...cough cough cough...Even if it is my mother, you can no longer...cough cough cough...use her to threaten me. Because even I...can no longer decide the life and death of this body ..."
Every word of Duan Yishu's words was like a knife, all of which pierced Qi Bai's heart. He stared blankly at Duan Yishu, and there was no vitality and brilliance in those clear eyes.In the other party's heart, I am afraid that he has already had the will to die, and he will not change for anyone, even his Gaotang old mother.
"I know...I know you don't want to be with me. Doctor Liu said, as long as you have the idea of living in your heart, you...you won't necessarily die. So...Yi Shu, if...if this time you If you can recover, you...you can go, I...will not stop you, force you to do...anything."
Duan Yishu suddenly raised his eyes, and those stagnant pupils suddenly radiated a sharp light, which made Qi Bai's heart throbbing uncontrollably, and this throbbing made him even more desperate.
"You don't have to worry that I will renege on my promise. This time, I will definitely keep my promise, and I won't go back on my promise again and use words to deceive you, so... Be obedient, as long as you can recover, Yi Shu, you will be free, understand? ?”
"Okay." Duan Yishu nodded, and after another severe cough, he said firmly, "Not only do I want to be free, but I also want you to never appear in front of me, and you are not allowed to send anyone to follow me and find out where I am. My lord, in this life, I only wish to never have any contact with you, can you do it?"
Qi Bai's body trembled violently, and he looked at Duan Yishu in grief. After a long time, he nodded lightly, and said dully: "In the first place, I forced you to force you, but in the end, I betrayed you and hurt you. It can be seen that you followed I only have pain, if that’s the case, it’s fine if I don’t appear in front of your eyes.”
Maybe it was because of Qi Bai's guarantee, don't ask Duan Yishu why, his feeling is to tell him that Qi Bai didn't play any tricks this time, and he will really do what he says.
Finally, he had a longing for the future life, and he was also concerned about his mother who was arranged by Qi Bai in Zhuangzi, so Duan Yishu cooperated with the imperial doctors very much, within two months, most of his body recovered.
It just so happened that there was no wind on this day, and the sun was shining warmly.Duan Yishu recalled the imperial doctors' instructions, he needed to move around by himself, and he was too bored in the house these days, so he refused to let the maids follow him, and walked out wearing only a fox fur cloak .
These days Qi Bai really did what he said, when Duan Yishu was awake, he was basically invisible.But he also knew from the twinkling eyes of the maids: after he fell asleep, this guy would never be honest.
But even so, Duan Yishu was satisfied. After all, compared to Qi Bai who forced himself, such an obedient and obedient Prince Ming really made him a little unbelievable. After all, he was still in the palace, so how could he ask for more?
After walking for a while, he felt a little tired, so he sat casually behind the rockery, wondering if Qi Bai would really let him leave the palace, and where would he go after leaving the palace?It is certain that they cannot live in the capital, so how about going to the countryside?Dad said his hometown is Lin'an, why not go to Lin'an?
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a voice coming from the wind. He only heard it for a while, and he knew that it was Qi Bai and Qi Peng who were talking. Because he didn't want to see each other, he curled up, secretly thinking that no matter what they said, I just acted as if I didn't hear it. This shouldn't be considered eavesdropping.
Unexpectedly, Qi Bai and Qi Peng went to the gazebo on the rockery, and the two began to talk about court matters, and then fell silent. Duan Yishu didn't dare to take a big breath, and just about to leave quietly, he heard Qi Peng say: "Master , the imperial physicians said that Mr. Duan's health has improved a lot, and he will be able to recover in another month, but he still needs recuperation, you see..."
Duan Yishu's heart suddenly rose, and after a while, he heard Qi Bo softly say: "Let him go, let the imperial doctors prescribe the prescription for recuperation, and pack the necessary supplements and medicinal materials for him, and then he will take care of himself." Send him out of the house."
Qi Peng was silent for a while, then whispered again: "Then...do you want to send someone to follow..."
"No need." Qi Bai refused without waiting for Qi Peng to finish, and Duan Yishu's heartbeat also accelerated in an instant, and then he heard Qi Bai sigh and murmur: "Don't you know my temper? If ... If I knew where he lived, I would definitely not be able to resist looking for him, I... I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"My lord, I really don't understand. You racked your brains for Mr. Duan that day. Even if Steward Li put Mr. Duan in the dungeon on his own initiative, it was just to get him to agree to sign the marriage certificate. Sir, you are right How determined is Mr. Duan to win? Why did you say let go now, but you really let go? In case you regret it later..." In the end, although Qi Peng sympathized with Duan Yishu, he still turned to his prince, thinking of his future Every day, I can't help feeling a little anxious.
If it wasn't for this incident, I definitely wouldn't let it go.But God made me go through this time. When I thought that Yi Shu might never survive again, when Dr. Liu told me that his life was decided by God, and it was not up to manpower to decide, I just knew. It turns out... as long as he is still alive, he is stronger than anything else.
But I heard Qi Bai said indifferently, this indifferent tone is not because of the free and easy way of seeing the world, but because of the calmness of a stagnant heart after being completely hopeless about one thing.
He glanced at Qi Peng, saw his puzzled face, couldn't help but smiled bitterly, and said lightly: "Even if I can use Mrs. Duan to threaten Yi Shu this time, what about in the future? The old lady is old, and I don't know when." He will pass away forever, and by then, Yi Shu will never be held hostage by me again. If...he dies just like that, do you know? I can't even imagine that day will come."
"Then...then wait until the old lady passes away before letting go." Qi Peng muttered, thinking that his father was too inflexible.
Qi Bai smiled wryly and said: "Forget it, why bother? Why bother to let him go after hurting him badly? I have done too many things that I am sorry to him, and I will never ask him to forgive me in this life. I hope I can let go in time, Let him be peaceful and joyful in the days to come, even... even if we can't see each other again in this life, but... as long as I know in my heart that he is living well in a place I don't know, that's enough."
"My lord, you..." Qi Peng looked at his lord, it seemed that in such a short period of less than a month, this childish lord had grown up, no, it was more than growing up, he was dying, such an old-fashioned feeling , He has never seen it in the ministers of the Shangshu.
"I'm fine, I just read it. Yi Shu is right, even if I can be domineering in the world and cover the sky with one hand, but I am not as big as the sky, not as big as my fate, not as big as... this marriage that didn't exist on the Sansheng Stone... ..."
+ + + + +
When Duan Yishu left the palace, the flowers were blooming in March, and he picked up his mother from Zhuangzi. The old lady still didn't ask a word, and the mother and son sat in a carriage and set off for Lin'an City, Yunnan, which is thousands of miles away.
"Our lord went to the palace this morning. He said that he would not come to see you off, or he would not want to let you go because he was afraid of sending you off. It's just that you must accept this carriage and these gold and silver supplements. In the next You can change a coachman in the town, and the money is enough..."
Qi Peng's words echoed in his ears, and he looked at the tonic and medicinal materials piled up in a half-horse cart, as well as exquisite snacks and the special package containing silver ingots, gold beads, and copper coins.After all, Qi Bo understood him and did not give a huge amount of money, but the gold and silver used to compensate him were enough for Duan Yishu and his mother to live comfortably for several years.
With Duan Yishu's arrogant personality, he didn't want the money at first, but for some reason, recalling the conversation between Qi Bai and Qi Peng that he accidentally overheard that day, he finally accepted it silently.
No matter what, the bully prince finally kept his promise and let him go. If doing so can make him feel at ease, then it should be regarded as the last thing he did for him, although he felt that he had no such obligation at all.
After driving for more than a month, I finally arrived in Lin'an City. The climate here is warm and pleasant. Walking on the street, you will be greeted by the fragrance of flowers. Looking around, every household is planting flowers. Among them, the most beautiful and conspicuous are those with different colors One camellia.
With the money left by Qi Bai, he bought a house in a village in the countryside of Lin'an City, and Duan Yishu lived here with his mother ever since.
They didn't move the rest of the money. In this mountain village, no one framed or persecuted them. The mother and son could plant a two-acre Susukida vegetable garden leisurely. Duan Yishu would teach the children in the village to read every evening. He is a great talent. In the eyes of those country people, he is undoubtedly a figure like Wenquxing descending to the earth, so the farmers in the ten miles and eight villages respect him very much.
The peaceful days passed by like this, the flowers bloomed and fell, autumn went to spring, and it was five years in a blink of an eye.
Five years have already made Qi Bai fade into a name in Duan Yishu's heart. Even if he occasionally thinks back to those years in the palace, he will not be ashamed, angry and depressed as before.Those unbearable past events are getting farther and farther away in the warm wind of the countryside.
"I'm back with Uncle."
The children's laughter sounded in my ears, and then several children dragged him to the village entrance. Uncle and I sell mountain products in the city all the year round, and often bring back a lot of novel news, so every time he comes back, the whole village People like to gather under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, treat him to a meal of hundreds of families, and let him tell you about the new things in the city.
Duan Yishu never cared about these things, but it doesn't hurt to listen to them.So he stood outside the crowd, smiling and listening to the novelty things he and his uncle were spitting about.
"The imperial concubine who had been missing for a whole year suddenly returned to the capital a few days ago. The emperor was overjoyed and immediately named the imperial concubine. Tsk tsk, a eunuch has become an imperial concubine. If you go one step further, you will be a queen. Everyone It is said that maybe this eunuch can become the first male empress in the history of our Dajing Dynasty. Tell me, how capable is this eunuch? To make the emperor love him so much? It’s not just that the country is beautiful, but he has the ability, no, for him to return to the capital, it’s not enough to confer the title of imperial concubine, but also to amnesty the world..."
Eunuch?Royal concubine?
Duan Yishu couldn't help but have a peach blossom face in his mind.He and the eunuch named Leng Chuyan only met once. In his impression, his eyes are as clear as a pool, and his eyelashes are thick and long. The reason why I can notice these is because he always lowers his eyes for the sake.
Thinking of that day in the palace, he didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, just doing it in such a calm and peaceful manner, but when the emperor showed his murderous intentions to him, it was this little eunuch who was only a promise at that time, standing still. Standing up and saying a few words, he relieved himself of the crisis lightly.
Such a person is quiet, intelligent, yet kind, and always treats people with aloofness, so it's no wonder that he can slowly sit in this seat.
It's just that he didn't know what happened to his disappearance that day, whether it was caused by someone else's assassination, but God blessed him and allowed him to survive. If he can really become a male queen in the future, it will also be a blessing in the harem.
Duan Yishu was thinking wildly, and suddenly he heard the matter with his uncle, and changed the subject: "Xiyu Kingdom has repeatedly violated the sidelines these years, and now their fourth prince is on the throne, I heard that he is the most belligerent guy, I'm afraid we There will be no peace in Yunnan. These days it is rumored that once the two countries go to war, the emperor intends to send Prince Ming to take command. If this is the case, hehe, I can’t wait to be a pawn and see the demeanor of this young British king. I’m too old, I’m afraid people won’t want me.”
Duan Yishu stood up suddenly, looked at Uncle He and lost his voice: "Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about coming?"
"Prince Ming." Probably never seen him lose his temper like this before, and Uncle He felt strange, and carefully explained to Duan Yishu: "It's the one who was called back to the capital after the emperor ascended the throne, but after enjoying the blessings for a few years, he went back again. The young marshal who was sent to Mobei to guard the border. I heard that he was there, and those Tartars would not dare to approach the border within a hundred miles. Tsk tsk, even the murderous Tartars are afraid of him. , will it still be put in the eyes of the prince? Unless they don’t go to war, once they go to war, they will be courting death.”
Zeppel.
This name that had been forgotten for a long time suddenly appeared in his mind again, followed by that handsome but flamboyant face. Duan Yishu couldn't help but feel a little lost. He didn't smile until the children called him, and reluctantly said: : "It's nothing, I just admire the prince very much. I heard that he might come to Yunnan, so I lost my composure for a while."
Uncle He laughed, stroked his beard and said, "That's right, not to mention the young men in the city are all gearing up, even the big girl and the little daughter-in-law stretch their necks to look at them every day. I heard that the prince has not yet Getting married, what if... hehe..."
He and the uncle didn't finish the sentence, but laughed with unknown meaning.Everyone who didn't understand the meaning of the unfinished words couldn't help laughing out loud.
+ + + + +
The news of the small mountain village was blocked. When the news came that Xiyu and the Dajing Dynasty finally started fighting, the two armies had already fought for a round. There was no doubt that the iron cavalry led by Prince Qi Bai of the Ming Dynasty had already accumulated accumulated experience in fighting in the north and south for so many years. Rich combat experience. In contrast, although they are strong and good at riding and shooting, but inferior in strategy and experience, the Xiyu army is really powerless to fight back.
The war only lasted for more than half a year, and Xiyu Kingdom handed over the letter of surrender, willing to be a vassal from generation to generation and pay tribute every year.Qi Huan thought about it carefully, and agreed.
This way, the world is truly at peace. Even if Qi Bai wanted to find a place to fight, he couldn't find it.Beijing Central issued three imperial edicts one after another, urging him to return to Beijing to report on his duties, but he didn't want to go back to that sad place again. Thinking of the beautiful scenery in Yunnan, it would be better to play a few more times.
He took root here, so those native-born bandits suffered. This young marshal is very brave. Once he knows where there is a banditry, he doesn't need his large army to accompany him, only twenty or thirty The guards were able to hand over dozens or even hundreds of bandits to Lian Wo, and the bandits disappeared in fright for a while, and no one would dare to rob and make a fortune.
Qi Bo was so bored now, he finally encountered a flower picker who had been captured by the government for half a year while hunting. I don't even bother to take a look, but today is different. Although the flower picker can't be compared with the Jiangyang thief who murdered and robbed him, he is still a thief anyway, isn't he?Sese gritted his teeth to pass the boring time.
Therefore, Prince Ming didn't say anything, he flattered his horse and chased after him, fearing that the guards would compete with him, thinking about it, how could a little flower picker resist so many experts' greetings.Therefore, he used his power for personal gain, ordered everyone to stand by, and happily chased after the flower picker.
One chased and the other fled, and they didn't know where they were. From a distance, they saw a large field. At the end of the field was a piece of green mountains and green waters. It was a beautiful place like a paradise.
Qi Bai's patience was almost exhausted, and then he flew up and kicked the flower picker off the horse, and then the two of them were on the ground, back and forth and back and forth.
When Duan Yishu came back from cutting firewood on the mountain, he saw two people fighting together from a long distance away. He thought it was just two people who had a disagreement and fought each other, so he didn't care, anyway, it had nothing to do with him.Unexpectedly, as they slowly approached, they heard one of them's shouts sound somewhat familiar, it seemed...it seemed to be Qi Bai's voice.
Surprised, he slowed down his pace, but thought in his heart that this is absolutely impossible, Qi Bai is stationed at the border, hundreds of miles away from here, how could he come here?Maybe it's just someone with a similar voice...
As soon as I thought of this, I heard a proud voice say: "Hey, you shameless flower picker, I don't think you will admit defeat this time."
While talking, the man in blue shirt who just rode on the other man had already tied up the beaten man tightly, then stood up from the ground, noticing that there was a man standing not far away, he couldn't help turning his head away, only this Once, the head will never turn back.
The long years, several cool autumns... But in such an inadvertent way, after five years, the two pairs of eyes were entangled again.
The past is unstoppable, but at this moment, the past that has been deliberately forgotten for a long time is rapidly turning around in the minds of the two of them like a revolving lantern, but when those fragments are turned, there is only silence between each other, A long sigh.
A few leaves fell leisurely, cutting off the glued sight, and finally brought both Qi Bai and Duan Yishu back to their senses.
"So...you came here after you left Beijing that day...Actually...you don't need to go so far. I haven't sent anyone to look for you in the past five years."
Qi Bai finally lowered his head first, and opened his mouth.On the iron-blooded battlefield, the iron man who had never shed a tear in his comrades, but just because of this old face, his voice was a little choked up.
"This is my father's hometown, and it has nothing to do with the prince." Goodbye Qi Bo, Duan Yishu's feelings cannot be summed up by a hater. Hearing Qi Bo speak so carefully, he couldn't help but have mixed feelings for a while.
"Oh, that's it..." Qi Bo forced a smile and nodded, then looked up at Duan Yishu, seeing the firewood on his back, a ray of heartache flashed through his eyes, afraid of being seen by the other party, he hurriedly He lowered his head again, knowing that he shouldn't speak again, but he still couldn't help asking: "These years, you... How are you doing?"
"Very good, thank you for your concern." Duan Yishu said lightly, and realized that it was time to leave, but for some reason, he couldn't move. Obviously, he no longer had the fear and resentment he had before for the bully prince in front of him, but But he still couldn't turn his head and leave, but could only stand quietly like this.
"That's good... that's good." Qi Bai smiled, as if mustering up his courage, he finally raised his head to look directly at Duan Yishu, and asked softly, "Are you...that...sister-in-law and the child okay? "Even he didn't realize it, there was a tremor in his voice.
Duan Yishu's heart skipped a beat, but his lips curled up very quickly, revealing a calm smile, nodded and said: "They are all well, thank you, my lord. My lord is over 20 now, right? It's time to get married." .”
"Oh, my lord... My lord is already married, and my son is as high as my knee." Qi Bai's whole body strength seemed to be completely drained in an instant, and he grinned, revealing a face that was uglier than crying. Smile: "Well... are these firewood heavy? How about... let me send it back for you... Oh, don't get me wrong, I... I don't mean anything else..."
"Cao Min understands, thank you for your concern, Cao Min is no longer the powerless scholar of the past." Duan Yishu bent down slightly, glanced at the flower pickers on the ground, and said calmly: "I think the prince's official duties are also very busy, Cao Min Don't bother me any more."
Qi Bai wanted to say don't bother, not at all.But in this situation, what is there to say?So he just bowed his head and quietly retreated to the side, seeing Duan Yishu walking past him, the sound of steady footsteps fading away, he dared to raise his head, and followed Duan Yishu closely with obsessive eyes.
Don't listen to Huan who threatened Duan Yishu with the old lady. God, I won't let him go.Although what he did to Duan Yishu made him ready to go to hell.
But after the man was captured, Qi Bai couldn't sit still any longer. He tossed back and forth in the room for two days, only scolding the maids, servants and servants around him so much that he didn't dare to approach him. In the end, he finally took Qi Peng Called over, he asked viciously, "Duan has been locked up in prison for two days, right? No one has given him food and water these two days?"
Qi Peng quickly shook his head and said no.
Qi Bo just nodded, thought for a while and said: "You let Qingfengmingyue come over and go to the prison with me. If he refuses to sign the marriage certificate, don't blame me for using all the methods of going back to Yanlou to greet him. If Qingfengmingyue is not up to the task, so I will go back to Yanlou to ask someone who is specially trained to come over. Do you understand?"
"Ah ... ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhn Unexpectedly, it turned out to force people to sign a marriage certificate.
"What was your expression at that time?" Qi Bai kicked Qi Peng angrily, and kicked Qi Peng on the head: "How can we live with him if we don't sign the marriage certificate? You didn't hear what my brother said that day?" I’m not allowed to use coercion again, so besides letting him marry me as a man’s wife, is there any other way to choose? You’ve been with me for so many days, why is your head still like a pig’s brain?”
Qi Peng had a bitter face, thinking to himself, my lord, is it my pig's brain or your brain is too talented?I've only heard of a marriage proposal, but I haven't heard of such a forced marriage. With Mr. Duan's temperament, can he agree?But he didn't dare to say these words, he quickly got up, and went to call Qingfeng Mingyue according to Qi Bai's instructions.
Leading a few people to the prison, only to find that in the huge dungeon there were only two maids who had stolen the house's goods and sold them out. Qi Bai was so shocked that he grabbed the guard by the neck and yelled: : "Where's Yi Shu? Where did you take him?"
The guard almost peed in fright, and stammered: "Duan...Mr. Duan is in the water prison. Butler Li brought someone over the other day and found two maids locked up here, saying...it's inconvenient. Just put him in a water dungeon...closed...locked up."
"Water prison?"
Qi Bai's expression seemed to be about to pass out, and all the strength in his body was sucked out in an instant, until Qi Peng anxiously reminded in his ear: "Master, hurry up to the water prison, Mr. Duan's body is so weak that he can't help those things!" Cold water..." He just woke up like a dream.
Kicking the watchman to the ground with one kick, Qi Bo ran out with lightness kung fu.
Along the way, he felt as if his heart had been plucked by life. Thinking of Duan Yishu's frail body, thinking of how he was still alive after being locked up in the water prison for two days and two nights, and thinking of the icy cold water in the water prison, he only felt his head It's about to explode alive.
Rushing into the water cell, before the guard could speak, he kicked open the door with a flying kick, and at a glance he saw Duan Yishu who was being hung up, completely submerged in the water from the waist down, with his head down, dead I don't know if I'm alive.
"Yi Shu..."
Like the roar of a wounded beast, Qi Bai ran over and cut the rope with his palm, hugged Duan Yishu in his arms, tried his breath, and there was a trace of heat, his tears flowed down instantly, and he roared with all his might : "Imperial doctor, go find me an imperial doctor, and invite me all the imperial doctors in the Imperial Hospital."
+ + + + +
"My lord, the situation of Mr. Duan is not optimistic. His health is already poor, and after two days of soaking in cold water, the wind and cold have entered his body. Whether this life can be saved is no longer up to us. It depends on whether God gives this opportunity, if God refuses to help, then..."
Liu Hanhai, director of the imperial hospital, comprehensively reviewed the opinions of all the imperial physicians, and reluctantly gave Qi Bai an ultimatum.
"Cough cough cough..."
A severe cough sounded, and Qi Bai rushed over. During this day, even in a coma, Duan Yishu often coughed violently.
He carefully lifted the opponent's limp body due to coma, patted him on the back, and said in a deep voice: "I don't care, since you want to compete with God, you should try your best to fight for this king, whether it is Rare medicinal materials, or some kind of genius and earthly treasure, as long as they can save Yi Shu’s life, you can tell this king, even if this king loses his life, he must get these things back.”
"My lord is serious, I will definitely try my best, but... please be prepared for what happens, let alone..." Liu Hanhai hesitated for a while, his lips moved a few times, but he hesitated to speak until Qi Bai impatiently urged him, so he sighed and said: "What's more, geniuses, precious and rare medicinal materials are not as good as Mr. Duan's own will. If he has the desire to survive, it will be easier to heal. Otherwise, He wants to die with all his heart, even the Daluo Jinxian, the lower officials, can't save him."
Qi Bai's body trembled violently, and he looked down at Duan Yishu: This face looked as beautiful as the first time he saw it, but it was much thinner.He gently stroked the slender sword eyebrows, thick and long eyelashes, the straight nose bridge, and his favorite rouge thin lips. After a long while, Fang Youyou sighed.
"If you run rampant and cover the sky with one hand, you are still a human being, not God."
The pain in his heart seemed to be twisted, but suddenly he heard a low and hoarse voice in his ears, Qi Bai was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his head suddenly, seeing Duan Yishu who opened his eyes on the bed, he couldn't help shouting in surprise: " You're awake...Yi Shu, you're awake...this...that's great, imperial doctor... imperial doctor..."
"Qi Bo, I don't want to pursue the grievances between you and me anymore, I...I'm afraid that time is running out, you let me...see my mother..."
Duan Yishu's body was still so weak that he couldn't finish a sentence quickly. When his voice fell, he coughed violently again. As soon as the imperial doctors stepped into the door, they saw him coughing up a big mouthful of blood, which instantly stained him red. The clothes on the body and the list under the body.
"Yi Shu...Yi Shu" Qi Bai's voice changed in fright, and he hurriedly asked the imperial doctors to come for diagnosis and treatment.
After everyone got their pulses in a hurry, and comforted Duan Yishu, Liu Hanhai called Qi Bai out again, and whispered a few words to him, nothing more than "Life and death are up to me, Prince Ming should prepare early." " and the like.
"Fart...you just said...as long as...as long as Yi Shu survives...he won't die, I don't care, you guys give me a prescription and make medicine right away, if he dies, I'll go with him too , when the time comes, I will take all of you quack doctors to the underworld, and let you continue to treat him.”
Qi Bai was so frightened that he couldn't speak freely. After finishing his yelling, without giving the imperial doctors a chance to explain, he staggered to the back room, grabbed Duan Yishu's hand and said anxiously: "Yi Shu, don't worry, I will definitely Save you... I... I will save you, I will not let you die, never..."
Duan Yishu looked at Qi Bai who was lying on his bed and crying with a headache. This bully prince once said that men bleed but not cry, but he didn't expect that he was crying so miserably in front of him at this time.For a moment, he only felt that he didn't even have the strength to hate.
It doesn't matter what kind of heart Qi Bo has for him, whether he only treats him as a toy or if he really loves him, these are not important, he only knows that he wants to be quiet and see his mother.
"Yi Shu, you...don't be silent, what do you want to eat? Tell me...I'll get it..."
"My lord." Duan Yishu calmly interrupted Qi Bo's words. He looked into the hopeful eyes of the other party, suddenly smiled at himself slightly, and said softly: "I don't have much time, I want to see my mother, but I don't know if the lord can Do you allow..."
Qi Bai's face turned pale in an instant.The hand holding Duan Yishu trembled violently, and it took a long time to stammer out a few words: "As long as... as long as Yi Shu can recover, I... I will take the aunt into the house..."
"What are you doing in the mansion? Let my mother watch me being manipulated and possessed by you like a woman every day?" Duan Yishu suddenly sneered, and seeing Qi Bai's face turn paler, he felt a tinge of joy in his heart Out: "My lord, I just said that no matter how domineering you are and cover the sky with your hands, you are no bigger than God. Now, God has pity on me and wants to take back my life so that you will never have the chance to humiliate me. Mother...cough cough cough...Even if it is my mother, you can no longer...cough cough cough...use her to threaten me. Because even I...can no longer decide the life and death of this body ..."
Every word of Duan Yishu's words was like a knife, all of which pierced Qi Bai's heart. He stared blankly at Duan Yishu, and there was no vitality and brilliance in those clear eyes.In the other party's heart, I am afraid that he has already had the will to die, and he will not change for anyone, even his Gaotang old mother.
"I know...I know you don't want to be with me. Doctor Liu said, as long as you have the idea of living in your heart, you...you won't necessarily die. So...Yi Shu, if...if this time you If you can recover, you...you can go, I...will not stop you, force you to do...anything."
Duan Yishu suddenly raised his eyes, and those stagnant pupils suddenly radiated a sharp light, which made Qi Bai's heart throbbing uncontrollably, and this throbbing made him even more desperate.
"You don't have to worry that I will renege on my promise. This time, I will definitely keep my promise, and I won't go back on my promise again and use words to deceive you, so... Be obedient, as long as you can recover, Yi Shu, you will be free, understand? ?”
"Okay." Duan Yishu nodded, and after another severe cough, he said firmly, "Not only do I want to be free, but I also want you to never appear in front of me, and you are not allowed to send anyone to follow me and find out where I am. My lord, in this life, I only wish to never have any contact with you, can you do it?"
Qi Bai's body trembled violently, and he looked at Duan Yishu in grief. After a long time, he nodded lightly, and said dully: "In the first place, I forced you to force you, but in the end, I betrayed you and hurt you. It can be seen that you followed I only have pain, if that’s the case, it’s fine if I don’t appear in front of your eyes.”
Maybe it was because of Qi Bai's guarantee, don't ask Duan Yishu why, his feeling is to tell him that Qi Bai didn't play any tricks this time, and he will really do what he says.
Finally, he had a longing for the future life, and he was also concerned about his mother who was arranged by Qi Bai in Zhuangzi, so Duan Yishu cooperated with the imperial doctors very much, within two months, most of his body recovered.
It just so happened that there was no wind on this day, and the sun was shining warmly.Duan Yishu recalled the imperial doctors' instructions, he needed to move around by himself, and he was too bored in the house these days, so he refused to let the maids follow him, and walked out wearing only a fox fur cloak .
These days Qi Bai really did what he said, when Duan Yishu was awake, he was basically invisible.But he also knew from the twinkling eyes of the maids: after he fell asleep, this guy would never be honest.
But even so, Duan Yishu was satisfied. After all, compared to Qi Bai who forced himself, such an obedient and obedient Prince Ming really made him a little unbelievable. After all, he was still in the palace, so how could he ask for more?
After walking for a while, he felt a little tired, so he sat casually behind the rockery, wondering if Qi Bai would really let him leave the palace, and where would he go after leaving the palace?It is certain that they cannot live in the capital, so how about going to the countryside?Dad said his hometown is Lin'an, why not go to Lin'an?
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard a voice coming from the wind. He only heard it for a while, and he knew that it was Qi Bai and Qi Peng who were talking. Because he didn't want to see each other, he curled up, secretly thinking that no matter what they said, I just acted as if I didn't hear it. This shouldn't be considered eavesdropping.
Unexpectedly, Qi Bai and Qi Peng went to the gazebo on the rockery, and the two began to talk about court matters, and then fell silent. Duan Yishu didn't dare to take a big breath, and just about to leave quietly, he heard Qi Peng say: "Master , the imperial physicians said that Mr. Duan's health has improved a lot, and he will be able to recover in another month, but he still needs recuperation, you see..."
Duan Yishu's heart suddenly rose, and after a while, he heard Qi Bo softly say: "Let him go, let the imperial doctors prescribe the prescription for recuperation, and pack the necessary supplements and medicinal materials for him, and then he will take care of himself." Send him out of the house."
Qi Peng was silent for a while, then whispered again: "Then...do you want to send someone to follow..."
"No need." Qi Bai refused without waiting for Qi Peng to finish, and Duan Yishu's heartbeat also accelerated in an instant, and then he heard Qi Bai sigh and murmur: "Don't you know my temper? If ... If I knew where he lived, I would definitely not be able to resist looking for him, I... I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."
"My lord, I really don't understand. You racked your brains for Mr. Duan that day. Even if Steward Li put Mr. Duan in the dungeon on his own initiative, it was just to get him to agree to sign the marriage certificate. Sir, you are right How determined is Mr. Duan to win? Why did you say let go now, but you really let go? In case you regret it later..." In the end, although Qi Peng sympathized with Duan Yishu, he still turned to his prince, thinking of his future Every day, I can't help feeling a little anxious.
If it wasn't for this incident, I definitely wouldn't let it go.But God made me go through this time. When I thought that Yi Shu might never survive again, when Dr. Liu told me that his life was decided by God, and it was not up to manpower to decide, I just knew. It turns out... as long as he is still alive, he is stronger than anything else.
But I heard Qi Bai said indifferently, this indifferent tone is not because of the free and easy way of seeing the world, but because of the calmness of a stagnant heart after being completely hopeless about one thing.
He glanced at Qi Peng, saw his puzzled face, couldn't help but smiled bitterly, and said lightly: "Even if I can use Mrs. Duan to threaten Yi Shu this time, what about in the future? The old lady is old, and I don't know when." He will pass away forever, and by then, Yi Shu will never be held hostage by me again. If...he dies just like that, do you know? I can't even imagine that day will come."
"Then...then wait until the old lady passes away before letting go." Qi Peng muttered, thinking that his father was too inflexible.
Qi Bai smiled wryly and said: "Forget it, why bother? Why bother to let him go after hurting him badly? I have done too many things that I am sorry to him, and I will never ask him to forgive me in this life. I hope I can let go in time, Let him be peaceful and joyful in the days to come, even... even if we can't see each other again in this life, but... as long as I know in my heart that he is living well in a place I don't know, that's enough."
"My lord, you..." Qi Peng looked at his lord, it seemed that in such a short period of less than a month, this childish lord had grown up, no, it was more than growing up, he was dying, such an old-fashioned feeling , He has never seen it in the ministers of the Shangshu.
"I'm fine, I just read it. Yi Shu is right, even if I can be domineering in the world and cover the sky with one hand, but I am not as big as the sky, not as big as my fate, not as big as... this marriage that didn't exist on the Sansheng Stone... ..."
+ + + + +
When Duan Yishu left the palace, the flowers were blooming in March, and he picked up his mother from Zhuangzi. The old lady still didn't ask a word, and the mother and son sat in a carriage and set off for Lin'an City, Yunnan, which is thousands of miles away.
"Our lord went to the palace this morning. He said that he would not come to see you off, or he would not want to let you go because he was afraid of sending you off. It's just that you must accept this carriage and these gold and silver supplements. In the next You can change a coachman in the town, and the money is enough..."
Qi Peng's words echoed in his ears, and he looked at the tonic and medicinal materials piled up in a half-horse cart, as well as exquisite snacks and the special package containing silver ingots, gold beads, and copper coins.After all, Qi Bo understood him and did not give a huge amount of money, but the gold and silver used to compensate him were enough for Duan Yishu and his mother to live comfortably for several years.
With Duan Yishu's arrogant personality, he didn't want the money at first, but for some reason, recalling the conversation between Qi Bai and Qi Peng that he accidentally overheard that day, he finally accepted it silently.
No matter what, the bully prince finally kept his promise and let him go. If doing so can make him feel at ease, then it should be regarded as the last thing he did for him, although he felt that he had no such obligation at all.
After driving for more than a month, I finally arrived in Lin'an City. The climate here is warm and pleasant. Walking on the street, you will be greeted by the fragrance of flowers. Looking around, every household is planting flowers. Among them, the most beautiful and conspicuous are those with different colors One camellia.
With the money left by Qi Bai, he bought a house in a village in the countryside of Lin'an City, and Duan Yishu lived here with his mother ever since.
They didn't move the rest of the money. In this mountain village, no one framed or persecuted them. The mother and son could plant a two-acre Susukida vegetable garden leisurely. Duan Yishu would teach the children in the village to read every evening. He is a great talent. In the eyes of those country people, he is undoubtedly a figure like Wenquxing descending to the earth, so the farmers in the ten miles and eight villages respect him very much.
The peaceful days passed by like this, the flowers bloomed and fell, autumn went to spring, and it was five years in a blink of an eye.
Five years have already made Qi Bai fade into a name in Duan Yishu's heart. Even if he occasionally thinks back to those years in the palace, he will not be ashamed, angry and depressed as before.Those unbearable past events are getting farther and farther away in the warm wind of the countryside.
"I'm back with Uncle."
The children's laughter sounded in my ears, and then several children dragged him to the village entrance. Uncle and I sell mountain products in the city all the year round, and often bring back a lot of novel news, so every time he comes back, the whole village People like to gather under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, treat him to a meal of hundreds of families, and let him tell you about the new things in the city.
Duan Yishu never cared about these things, but it doesn't hurt to listen to them.So he stood outside the crowd, smiling and listening to the novelty things he and his uncle were spitting about.
"The imperial concubine who had been missing for a whole year suddenly returned to the capital a few days ago. The emperor was overjoyed and immediately named the imperial concubine. Tsk tsk, a eunuch has become an imperial concubine. If you go one step further, you will be a queen. Everyone It is said that maybe this eunuch can become the first male empress in the history of our Dajing Dynasty. Tell me, how capable is this eunuch? To make the emperor love him so much? It’s not just that the country is beautiful, but he has the ability, no, for him to return to the capital, it’s not enough to confer the title of imperial concubine, but also to amnesty the world..."
Eunuch?Royal concubine?
Duan Yishu couldn't help but have a peach blossom face in his mind.He and the eunuch named Leng Chuyan only met once. In his impression, his eyes are as clear as a pool, and his eyelashes are thick and long. The reason why I can notice these is because he always lowers his eyes for the sake.
Thinking of that day in the palace, he didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, just doing it in such a calm and peaceful manner, but when the emperor showed his murderous intentions to him, it was this little eunuch who was only a promise at that time, standing still. Standing up and saying a few words, he relieved himself of the crisis lightly.
Such a person is quiet, intelligent, yet kind, and always treats people with aloofness, so it's no wonder that he can slowly sit in this seat.
It's just that he didn't know what happened to his disappearance that day, whether it was caused by someone else's assassination, but God blessed him and allowed him to survive. If he can really become a male queen in the future, it will also be a blessing in the harem.
Duan Yishu was thinking wildly, and suddenly he heard the matter with his uncle, and changed the subject: "Xiyu Kingdom has repeatedly violated the sidelines these years, and now their fourth prince is on the throne, I heard that he is the most belligerent guy, I'm afraid we There will be no peace in Yunnan. These days it is rumored that once the two countries go to war, the emperor intends to send Prince Ming to take command. If this is the case, hehe, I can’t wait to be a pawn and see the demeanor of this young British king. I’m too old, I’m afraid people won’t want me.”
Duan Yishu stood up suddenly, looked at Uncle He and lost his voice: "Who are you talking about? Who are you talking about coming?"
"Prince Ming." Probably never seen him lose his temper like this before, and Uncle He felt strange, and carefully explained to Duan Yishu: "It's the one who was called back to the capital after the emperor ascended the throne, but after enjoying the blessings for a few years, he went back again. The young marshal who was sent to Mobei to guard the border. I heard that he was there, and those Tartars would not dare to approach the border within a hundred miles. Tsk tsk, even the murderous Tartars are afraid of him. , will it still be put in the eyes of the prince? Unless they don’t go to war, once they go to war, they will be courting death.”
Zeppel.
This name that had been forgotten for a long time suddenly appeared in his mind again, followed by that handsome but flamboyant face. Duan Yishu couldn't help but feel a little lost. He didn't smile until the children called him, and reluctantly said: : "It's nothing, I just admire the prince very much. I heard that he might come to Yunnan, so I lost my composure for a while."
Uncle He laughed, stroked his beard and said, "That's right, not to mention the young men in the city are all gearing up, even the big girl and the little daughter-in-law stretch their necks to look at them every day. I heard that the prince has not yet Getting married, what if... hehe..."
He and the uncle didn't finish the sentence, but laughed with unknown meaning.Everyone who didn't understand the meaning of the unfinished words couldn't help laughing out loud.
+ + + + +
The news of the small mountain village was blocked. When the news came that Xiyu and the Dajing Dynasty finally started fighting, the two armies had already fought for a round. There was no doubt that the iron cavalry led by Prince Qi Bai of the Ming Dynasty had already accumulated accumulated experience in fighting in the north and south for so many years. Rich combat experience. In contrast, although they are strong and good at riding and shooting, but inferior in strategy and experience, the Xiyu army is really powerless to fight back.
The war only lasted for more than half a year, and Xiyu Kingdom handed over the letter of surrender, willing to be a vassal from generation to generation and pay tribute every year.Qi Huan thought about it carefully, and agreed.
This way, the world is truly at peace. Even if Qi Bai wanted to find a place to fight, he couldn't find it.Beijing Central issued three imperial edicts one after another, urging him to return to Beijing to report on his duties, but he didn't want to go back to that sad place again. Thinking of the beautiful scenery in Yunnan, it would be better to play a few more times.
He took root here, so those native-born bandits suffered. This young marshal is very brave. Once he knows where there is a banditry, he doesn't need his large army to accompany him, only twenty or thirty The guards were able to hand over dozens or even hundreds of bandits to Lian Wo, and the bandits disappeared in fright for a while, and no one would dare to rob and make a fortune.
Qi Bo was so bored now, he finally encountered a flower picker who had been captured by the government for half a year while hunting. I don't even bother to take a look, but today is different. Although the flower picker can't be compared with the Jiangyang thief who murdered and robbed him, he is still a thief anyway, isn't he?Sese gritted his teeth to pass the boring time.
Therefore, Prince Ming didn't say anything, he flattered his horse and chased after him, fearing that the guards would compete with him, thinking about it, how could a little flower picker resist so many experts' greetings.Therefore, he used his power for personal gain, ordered everyone to stand by, and happily chased after the flower picker.
One chased and the other fled, and they didn't know where they were. From a distance, they saw a large field. At the end of the field was a piece of green mountains and green waters. It was a beautiful place like a paradise.
Qi Bai's patience was almost exhausted, and then he flew up and kicked the flower picker off the horse, and then the two of them were on the ground, back and forth and back and forth.
When Duan Yishu came back from cutting firewood on the mountain, he saw two people fighting together from a long distance away. He thought it was just two people who had a disagreement and fought each other, so he didn't care, anyway, it had nothing to do with him.Unexpectedly, as they slowly approached, they heard one of them's shouts sound somewhat familiar, it seemed...it seemed to be Qi Bai's voice.
Surprised, he slowed down his pace, but thought in his heart that this is absolutely impossible, Qi Bai is stationed at the border, hundreds of miles away from here, how could he come here?Maybe it's just someone with a similar voice...
As soon as I thought of this, I heard a proud voice say: "Hey, you shameless flower picker, I don't think you will admit defeat this time."
While talking, the man in blue shirt who just rode on the other man had already tied up the beaten man tightly, then stood up from the ground, noticing that there was a man standing not far away, he couldn't help turning his head away, only this Once, the head will never turn back.
The long years, several cool autumns... But in such an inadvertent way, after five years, the two pairs of eyes were entangled again.
The past is unstoppable, but at this moment, the past that has been deliberately forgotten for a long time is rapidly turning around in the minds of the two of them like a revolving lantern, but when those fragments are turned, there is only silence between each other, A long sigh.
A few leaves fell leisurely, cutting off the glued sight, and finally brought both Qi Bai and Duan Yishu back to their senses.
"So...you came here after you left Beijing that day...Actually...you don't need to go so far. I haven't sent anyone to look for you in the past five years."
Qi Bai finally lowered his head first, and opened his mouth.On the iron-blooded battlefield, the iron man who had never shed a tear in his comrades, but just because of this old face, his voice was a little choked up.
"This is my father's hometown, and it has nothing to do with the prince." Goodbye Qi Bo, Duan Yishu's feelings cannot be summed up by a hater. Hearing Qi Bo speak so carefully, he couldn't help but have mixed feelings for a while.
"Oh, that's it..." Qi Bo forced a smile and nodded, then looked up at Duan Yishu, seeing the firewood on his back, a ray of heartache flashed through his eyes, afraid of being seen by the other party, he hurriedly He lowered his head again, knowing that he shouldn't speak again, but he still couldn't help asking: "These years, you... How are you doing?"
"Very good, thank you for your concern." Duan Yishu said lightly, and realized that it was time to leave, but for some reason, he couldn't move. Obviously, he no longer had the fear and resentment he had before for the bully prince in front of him, but But he still couldn't turn his head and leave, but could only stand quietly like this.
"That's good... that's good." Qi Bai smiled, as if mustering up his courage, he finally raised his head to look directly at Duan Yishu, and asked softly, "Are you...that...sister-in-law and the child okay? "Even he didn't realize it, there was a tremor in his voice.
Duan Yishu's heart skipped a beat, but his lips curled up very quickly, revealing a calm smile, nodded and said: "They are all well, thank you, my lord. My lord is over 20 now, right? It's time to get married." .”
"Oh, my lord... My lord is already married, and my son is as high as my knee." Qi Bai's whole body strength seemed to be completely drained in an instant, and he grinned, revealing a face that was uglier than crying. Smile: "Well... are these firewood heavy? How about... let me send it back for you... Oh, don't get me wrong, I... I don't mean anything else..."
"Cao Min understands, thank you for your concern, Cao Min is no longer the powerless scholar of the past." Duan Yishu bent down slightly, glanced at the flower pickers on the ground, and said calmly: "I think the prince's official duties are also very busy, Cao Min Don't bother me any more."
Qi Bai wanted to say don't bother, not at all.But in this situation, what is there to say?So he just bowed his head and quietly retreated to the side, seeing Duan Yishu walking past him, the sound of steady footsteps fading away, he dared to raise his head, and followed Duan Yishu closely with obsessive eyes.
