Black smoke lingers, and fire soars into the sky.The dark clouds are like a gathering of light smoke, shaking off a light and long drizzle.

Zhou Shuhe was choked by the thick smoke and woke up coughing.

The vaping medicine Chen Xiaoxiao ordered was very effective. Although she was awake at this time, she still felt weak all over her body. Even the few coughs just now seemed to consume all her strength.

The senses slowly came back into the basket, and the air licked by the tongue of fire brought unbearable sultriness. Zhou Shuhe felt as if she was hugged by someone. She squinted her eyes and tried to identify the person in front of her.

It's Qi Yu.

Well, it's Qi Yu again.

Even in the tense crisis of the present, she couldn't help but marvel at such a coincidence.In her past and present lives, every time she felt that she was really going to end, she would meet Qi Yu the moment she opened her eyes.

This seems to be due to fate, and it seems to be some kind of inevitability. It is precisely because his mind is always far away from her, and his eyes are always watching her from afar, that he can run before she really falls. she comes.

Zhou Shuhe didn't know where Qi Yu learned that she was in danger this time. The palace where the Yellow Emperor was sacrificed was located in the suburbs of Beijing. Of course it was not far away, but it was not possible to come here in a short while.

Thick smoke was billowing, and the turbid air spread from the mouth and nose to the limbs and bones. Zhou Shuhe's mind was still a little bit out of control, and it was really difficult for her to think about it.

She stopped thinking, hummed softly, and subconsciously arched in this embrace that made her feel safe.

A beam couldn't bear the burning, and bent and fell with a clear cracking sound. Qi Yu quickly raised his arm to block it, and the bones cracked, and the flesh was burnt by the charred wood.

He put all his attention on the matter of "going out", even the pain in his body seemed to disappear temporarily, and the slight movement of the person in his arms also did not attract his attention.

Qi Yu was very tired.

The fire in the dark room rushed around along the wooden tables and chairs. Many things in the small kitchen were newly built. The auspicious tanks usually placed in palaces had not been filled with water. He had no way to put out the fire. Several trusted men rushed into the sea of ​​fire to save people.

Tan Xiang, who was walking ahead to open the way, looked back at him with some worry.

Tan Xiang is a martial arts practitioner, but walking in the sea of ​​flames with Chen Qingming, who passed out, on his back, it is inevitable that he will get a few points.

And Qi Yumo said that if he knew martial arts, if he was an ordinary farmer compared to his strength, he might be able to defeat him.After all, no one is perfect, what he practiced was mental kung fu, although it is not considered that the limbs are not working hard, but he is still inferior in physical fitness.

The smoke and dust rolled in, and Qi Yu felt like a fire was burning in his lungs, but even if his internal organs were all burned by the fire, he would take Zhou Shuhe out.

Nothing can stop him from saving him.

Zhou Shuhe in her previous life was also a long time later, when Qi Yu, the former governor of the Overwatch Council, had been dead for many years, and even the tombstone was eroded by wind and rain, and all her bones were rotten in the loess. On the Mid-Autumn Festival night, after a long time, he vaguely touched his sincerity.

It was a damaged jade pendant that fell from the arms of the drunk buddy Liu Gui.

She picked it up, stroked the faded tassels under the jade pendant, and asked softly, "What is this?"

Liu Gui was taken aback for a moment, his mind tainted by the smell of alcohol suddenly sobered up, he hesitated for a while, and was finally defeated by Zhou Shuhe's stubborn gaze.

He told her that it was the treasure of Governor Qi.

During the court struggle more than ten years ago, Qi Yu took advantage of Wan Min's desire for power and the emperor's suspicious and ruthless, separated the pair of masters and servants with the right of beheading first and playing later that the emperor granted to Wan Min, and himself boarded the seal of the Supervisor of Rites and the Superintendent of the Supervisory Council. position.

At the same time, after learning of the accident in Zhou's family, the subordinates he sent to find someone brought back news of Zhou Shuhe who was married and went south with her husband to do business.

This is the jade pendant.

It is said that it was pawned by a young woman who looks like the portrait he gave. It is not appropriate to say that the pawn is just on the long way to escape. This once wealthy family had to sell their gold, silver and jewelry at a low price. , in exchange for a little bit of food rations.

At that time, Qi Yu rubbed the jade pendant and nodded slightly, without saying anything.

And after the next day, he ran to the Hall of Mental Cultivation and performed a tearful cry in front of the emperor.

He said that Zhu Yu's old party in the south resented the emperor and colluded with the Baiyue people of the Southern Barbarians to invade the border of Daning, and the courtiers said that they must first settle down if they want to fight against the outside world. That's all.

The emperor was furious and decided not to condone raising traitors. Under Qi Yu's persuasion, he was given the position of supervisor of the army and sent him to the south to quell the chaos.

Liu Gui was still Qi Yu's disciple at that time, and he almost went crazy when he heard the news.

"Qi Dudu, you have no opponent for a while, do you feel that you are so powerful that you have been dazed? You know what kind of person your majesty is better than me. Now he can be provoked by you to hate courtiers, and give military power in a moment of arrogance. , Tomorrow, the courtiers can persuade you to suspect you."

"Your greatest advantage is that you are closer to the emperor than anyone else, and you can influence His Majesty's thoughts. In addition, in His Majesty's view, you have no real power and cannot shake his position. That's why he is willing to trust you."

Liu Gui didn't even have time to salute him, and when he rushed in front of him, he was spitting all over the place.

"And what about now? You were born in the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and you have many connections with soldiers and horsemen. There is no need to take over military power, but now you want to lead soldiers to supervise the army in the south, which means you have lost the real power on the surface, and you are separated from the emperor. Hundreds of miles. You are not a member of the noble family, and you have no relatives to mediate in the court. What are you going to do now? Are you trying to send your head to the guillotine?"

Qi Yu took out a handkerchief and wiped the spittle off his face with some disgust.

Liu Gui felt guilty for a moment, no matter how trusted he was, he was panicked when Qi Yu's six relatives refused to admit him when he occasionally committed cleanliness.

Unexpectedly, Qi Yuge seemed to be in a good mood, and asked him with a pleasant face, "Liu Gui, I remember you owed me a life, do you still owe it?"

"Of course," he was a little puzzled, "what? Do you want me to assassinate the emperor?"

Qi Yu waved his hand and said with a smile, "No, no, I don't want you to die, I just want you to help me take care of someone."

"I understand what you said just now, but there is indeed a reason why I have to go. I don't know how long I can live if I go and come back this time. After thinking about it, you are the only one who has good character, ability, and innocence. Wife and childless."

He looked Liu Gui up and down, and added, "He still doesn't look good."

"???"

Qi met him with question marks on his face, and thoughtfully explained: "That is to say, if it is necessary in special circumstances, you can marry her. If it is not necessary... Hey! With your appearance, she can marry her." won't fall in love with you."

Liu Gui was slightly taken aback.

Even when Wan Min was defeated and ascended to a high position more than a month ago, he had never seen Qi Yu's expression like this in the private celebration banquet. It was more than joy and joy, which made this person really look like a An ordinary young man in his twenties would love to tease him with a narrow interest.

Liu Gui was silent for a moment, then asked softly, "Who are you talking about?"

The narrow-minded expression faded from Qi Yu's face little by little. He lowered his eyes and smiled, took out the jade from his bosom, and stroked it lightly.

"She was my former fiancée."

"This was originally my jade pendant, and then I gave it to her, and now it's mine again. Now I give it to you, don't get me wrong, it still belongs to me, but I don't know who else I can give it to for safekeeping, you Help me collect it."

Liu Gui was silent for a moment, nodded, carefully put away the jade, and left Beijing with Qi Yu, and later stayed in the south with Zhou Shuhe.

After more than ten years, the dim sum shop named Yidiantang opened from south to north, and finally opened a branch in Beijing.In many of them, his employer encountered some difficulties as a widow without husband and children, and later adopted a child, but she did not think about who else to marry.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion this year, Beidi's iron cavalry drove straight in from the border, the people were displaced, and the Daning Dynasty was in jeopardy. However, in the capital that had not been affected by the war, it was still peaceful with singing and dancing.

Zhou Shuhe took the jade pendant that had been lost for many years into his arms, went back to his room and fell asleep.

On the second day, Liu Gui found her in front of Qi Yu's stele in the suburbs of Beijing.

There is a piece of jade on the stele, the jade is still remnant jade, but the tassels have been weaved upright, and gold threads are tied to the top of the tassels.

The person who wove the jade ears leaned against the monument and fell into a long deep sleep.

The journey is long, and someone always forgets to cherish herself. She has to remind him, and it is best to scold him.

In fact, she always wanted to hug him again.
