Qing Jiu didn't expect that when he saw Xiao Qi again, his face would look so ugly.
Pale and decadent, giving people a feeling that the deadline has come.
He was stunned when he saw her, Mo Tong was stunned. After a long time, he stretched out his hand at her in a daze and murmured: "Li'er?"
Qing Jiu's small hand placed on Xilingyue's shoulder was slid into a circle, and the words of Xiao Yuyan in front of Li Gong suddenly flashed in his mind.
But I still think it is impossible. How could he be sincere to her?
There was only one person in his heart from beginning to end.
But the blood and powerlessness in his eyes still made her frown, and her originally silent heart loosened a little with the dim light in his eyes. He looked at her, looking at his hands that had been stretching out, slowly Slowly down, smiled bitterly in disappointment: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back..."
But he hasn't completely let go.
A pair of small hands were quietly placed in his palm.
He was stunned, then his eyes lit up, he raised his head and looked at her in surprise. The child glanced at him, "I haven't seen him for a few days, why do you look like you're dying?"
This rebellious words shocked Xilingyue, but it was obvious that the person being said had no such consciousness at all.
Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief, "...it's nothing."
It doesn’t matter to Qingjiu either. He wants to say it or doesn’t want to say it, it has nothing to do with her anymore.
He urged Xi Lingyue to go back, but was stopped by Xiao Qi, "Since you are back, you should stay in the palace first."
Qing Jiu shrugged, it doesn't matter, she has no conflict with her plan anyway.
But when I heard the next sentence, I was stunned, "...The wedding day is coming soon, and it is not appropriate to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Big wedding?"
Qing Jiu was stunned, looked at Xiao Qi blankly, and then looked at Xiling Yue.
Xi Lingyue's face changed for a moment, and her body stiffened when she hugged her. Seeing her looking at him, her eyes were a little unnatural, "Li'er, you just came back, there are some things, I haven't told you yet... …”
"What's up?"
Xilingyue took a deep breath and said, "General You have someone send a letter back from home a few days ago, so that Li'er and I can complete the year..."
"What was back then?"
“…to make marriage for fingertips.”
Seven years ago, a joke by Mrs. Qing became General Qing's orphan at this moment.
Xiling Yue did not say anything. General Qing did not send such a letter to his family for no reason, but was seriously injured when confronting the enemy. I am afraid... the time is not long.
That's why I thought of entrusting an orphan.
With Xiling Yue protecting her, she will be happy and worry-free in her life.
In addition, the emperor just happened to have some plans to implement, so he agreed after thinking about it.
For the emperor, it might be just a joke, but for him, he really wants to protect her. The wedding, the words of the matchmaker, the orders of his parents, worshipped the world, and she will stay by her side from now on from now on Is it? It’s just that I can’t tell the emperor about this. Therefore, both for Xiao Qi and for the child, he feels that he has such a dark mind.
"For marriage?" Qing Jiu murmured, his dark eyes were very dark, and he could not tell that she had any thoughts.
After a while, he looked at Xilingyue quietly, "But I am only six years old."
"...It's okay, I will take good care of you." Xi Lingyue's voice was a little low. He lowered his eyes when he said these words. Qing Jiu could still feel his nervousness, and he couldn't help but hold her arm without realizing it. The ground tightly gripped.
She suddenly felt that it was nothing, so she turned around and looked at Xiao Qi quietly, with cold eyebrows, "What the emperor said is, it is indeed wrong to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion now. But why can't I go back to the General's Mansion?
?”
Xiao Qi was speechless for a moment.
After a long time, I said something: "I think this is great."
After saying that, he actually looked at Xi Lingyue, stood up, walked to him, and took the child from his arms, "The Prime Minister is tired, so let's go back and rest first."
Xi Lingyue was stunned, but she lowered her eyes and handed the child to his hands.
His reaction was too strange. She always felt that Xi Lingyue was hiding something from her. It was really just a wedding?
Xiao Qi did not send her back to Huayin Palace, but took her to her bedroom.
In his bedroom, she saw the snake, curled quietly on the dragon bed, and heard the movement, but she didn't react.
This snake is obedient.
After Xiao Qi put her and the Fire Snake together, he told a lot of things again, and then he reluctantly left the bedroom. Qing Jiu touched the Fire Snake's snake scales and said nothing.
Some things that they are unwilling to say do not mean that she cannot inquire about them.
Sitting there lazily, I suddenly remembered that I came alone.
After a stick of incense, Xiao Yuyan appeared in front of her, her expression was much calmer than when she saw her last time. The child looked at him casually, "I thought you would tell Xiao Qi my identity."
Xiao Yuyan smiled bitterly: "I respect your thoughts." Since she didn't want to say it, he wouldn't tell it.
I told you that it will be of no benefit to the emperor, both public and private.
"I'm here today to ask you something."
"……What's up?"
"What happened in the palace these days when I was away?"
"..." Xiao Yuyan was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect her to ask so directly. He said slowly: "After you left, the emperor found that you were missing, and he looked for your whereabouts everywhere. This is the first thing
The second thing, you must have known it. The emperor issued an order to marry the prime minister. There is one more thing..." Xiao Yuyan said this, and was silent for a moment before closing his eyes and said, "The emperor has signed it.
Mu Yan'er is Yan Fei."
The edict of that day suddenly flashed in my mind.
According to the heavens, the emperor ordered: Mu Yan'er was virtuous, kind, gentle, pure and kind, so he was named Yan Concubine and was given to Lanyan Palace. In addition, the third lady of the General's Mansion, Qing Li and Prime Minister Xilingyue were given a finger seven years ago.
For marriage, we are specially allowed to choose a date to finish the marriage. I’m here.
The emperor clearly knows Mu Yan'er and herself...
But why did she be named concubine?
Although he already knew that she was ruthless to him, he still felt a sore feeling when he heard the news.
If the child hadn't been looking for him, he would have stayed in the Imperial Hospital and refused to come out.
"Famous concubine?"
Qing Jiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled strangely, "It's pretty good."
