across mountains and seas

After the summer, the showers are followed by sunny days.

It was a critical time for Jin Shoujiang to build the plank road, and he had not been back to Shicheng for the past few days. For Nie Xiaoxiao and Yi Yi, these few days were also rare leisure days.

Said to learn only one poem, but Yi Yi's begging appearance really couldn't bear to refuse. Before he knew it, Nie Xiaoxiao learned more than ten poems from Yi Yi.

Nie Xiaoxiao thought, probably because the wives he met when he was young were all old men, his voice was not as nice as Yi Yi, and his appearance was not as gentle as Yi Yi, so even Shi Wen felt disgusting.

She was so preoccupied with thinking, just for a while, she was caught by Yi Yi.

"My sister is not paying attention."

"Nonsense, I'm obviously listening."

Nie Xiaoxiao looked at her with a smile, quite proud, "If you don't believe me, if you ask, I will definitely be able to answer it!"

Yi Yi was sitting next to Nie Xiaoxiao. With one hand on her face, she held the brush and tapped the white paper twice with the end of the pen, "My sister can answer for sure. What if I want my sister to write?"

Nie Xiaoxiao's smile froze, "This..." Yes, she remembered what Yiyi just said about how to write beautiful characters, she heard it, but if she really wanted to write it, it would be crooked and ugly characters like reptiles again .

Yiyi put down his pen and got up with a smile, walked behind Nie Xiaoxiao, half hugged her from behind, flattened the white paper with one hand, and held Nie Xiaoxiao's writing hand with the other, "I will teach my sister again, this time sister must be serious." Listen."

"Okay." Nie Xiaoxiao nodded with a smile.

Yi Yi leaned forward, and the breath of her words brushed over Nie's little earlobe, itching and warm, "like this...horizontally, vertically, vertically..." She took Nie Xiao The little hand wrote a "ten" on the white paper, and when he looked at her sideways, he found that Nie Xiaoxiao's cheeks were flushed red.

Yi Yi was worried about her body, and felt Nie Xiaoxiao's pulse with his other hand, "Is sister feeling unwell?"

"No...no discomfort." Nie Xiaoxiao only felt flustered. If it wasn't because her belly was too big, she might have curled up and shrunk completely into Yi Yi's arms, "I want to learn other characters."

Yi Yi smiled and said, "Which one do you want to learn from?"

Nie Xiaoxiao took a deep breath quietly, and turned her face to meet Yi Yi's eyes. She seemed to be whispering, but also seemed to be answering, "Yi Yi."

Yi Yi stared at her blankly, and saw her own shadow in her pupils, she realized something, and even felt Nie Xiaoxiao's slightly disturbed pulse with her fingertips resting on Nie Xiaoxiao's wrist.

"Yi Yi?" Nie Xiaoxiao saw that she was stunned, so she called softly again.

"I... I remembered that the soup I made for my sister today is still boiling, I'll go and bring it to my sister first!" Yi Yi looked like a young girl in love at the moment, almost running away in a hurry.

Nie Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing at first, but after Yi Yi didn't return all night, Nie Xiaoxiao sat on the couch and thought about it all night, she likes to see Yi Yi laugh every day, and listens to Yi Yi's soft words every day, as long as Yi Yi is around, she He felt happy from the bottom of his heart, and when Yi Yi treated her more intimately, she couldn't help being a little excited.

Her teeth and claws all turned into tenderness in front of Yi Yi.Her chili temperament can't be choked in the slightest in front of Yi Yi.

Even Jin Shoujiang, who was closest to her in the world, never made her expect this - expecting to see her when she opened her eyes.

Nie Xiaoxiao felt that she was sick, why did she have such affection for this little girl Yi Yi in just a few days?No wonder Yi Yi would avoid her, but he did it on his own.

She gently caressed her swollen belly, and said in a low voice: "Son, mother seems to have done something wrong. You tell mother, what should mother do so that she won't avoid me? Will you listen to me, I'm sorry .”

The night was silent.

Tears trickled down her cheeks quietly, and dripped on her skirt, smudged silently.

She is a woman in shackles, how can she drag a good girl into this kind of ignorance?She was indeed wrong, so wrong that she accidentally opened the door of her heart and let a girl in, so wrong that she imagined that the girl could love her for the rest of her life just like her.

Pain, born from the heart.

I like it but I can't like it, I want it but I can't.

Nie Xiaoxiao can only laugh at herself, she deserves to be someone else's marionette in this life, she can never live from her heart, be the person she most wants to be, love the person she most wants to love.

Maybe it's because of her pregnancy that Nie Xiaoxiao is not as alert as she was when she was not married, or maybe it's because of a night of wind and rain that disturbed Nie Xiaoxiao's vigilance.

She didn't know that Yi Yi was actually outside the window listening to her talking quietly that night.

Yi Yi smiled softly with tears in his eyes, held his umbrella and looked at the raindrops dripping from the corner of the eaves, one after another fell to pieces on the stone slab.

She treated her well, but she wanted to use her as an umbrella to cover her to complete the task of the king under Jin Shoujiang's nose.Unexpectedly, Nie Xiaoxiao, the general's wife, looks beautiful on the outside, but inside she is a poor girl in shackles like her.The more she loves her, the more tender she will be, and the more she smiles, the more sincere she will be.

In just a few days, Nie Xiaoxiao is not the only one who has changed?

Yi Yi didn't know for a long time whether he was treating her falsely or sincerely. The people in the play were so fascinated that they couldn't tell the truth from the fake.The white and thin knuckles creaked slightly on the handle of the umbrella, and Yi Yi sighed silently, how could she, a person who couldn't even decide her own life, deserve the sincere love?

The more precious it is, the more afraid it will be broken like raindrops.

The more I want it, the more I fear it will be fleeting.

If she left without saying goodbye one day, how sad would Nie Xiaoxiao be?If she had been having fun with her for a long time without hesitation, after having the best memories, how could she be willing to just have one day and one night?

"Ah! Ah... Ah..."

Suddenly, Nie Xiaoxiao groaned and groaned in pain in the room.

"Come here... hurry up and call Mrs. Wen...my stomach hurts..."

"elder sister!"

Yi Yi exclaimed, almost broke in through the window, threw off the umbrella in his hand, and rushed in front of Nie Xiaoxiao.

Nie Xiaoxiao's face turned pale from the pain, and her forehead was covered with cold sweat. She squeezed Yi Yi's hand tightly, and said apologetically, "Yes...I'm sorry..."

"Let me tell you, you have to be fine, you can't have anything!" Yi Yi was in a state of confusion, seeing Nie Xiaoxiao's white skirt gradually dyed and reddened, how could she calm down?She embraced her distressedly, and at this moment, she just wanted to give her the warmest and gentlest place to Nie Xiaoxiao, "Don't say anything, I'll deliver the baby for you, don't be afraid, don't be afraid... ..."

"I... believe you..." Nie Xiaoxiao laughed out of tears, clenched her teeth, her whole body trembling violently from the pain.It was as if someone was constantly beating her lower abdomen with a heavy hammer, and it was also as if there were iron pincers constantly pulling the bones in her flesh and blood, trying to tear her lower body apart.

"Ma'am!" The maids tried their best to slam into the door, seeing Nie Xiaoxiao's miserable state, all of them turned pale with fright.

"Go and boil hot water, go and find clean clothes for sister! Hurry up!" It was the first time Yi Yi hoarse and exhausted, without the usual gentleness.

Just because she knows that she is the only one who can save Nie Xiaoxiao in Shicheng.

There is no stable woman in Shicheng at all.

Jin Shoujiang's construction of the plank road here is a confidential matter, and he hired two maids to serve the two wives. It has been trial and error, and he knows that Yi Yi has some medical skills, so he has long decided that Nie Xiaoxiao will give birth to Yi Yi.

Lang's heart is iron.

Yiyi didn't like Jin Shoujiang at first, but after getting close to Nie Xiaoxiao, he hated him even more.Until this moment, she obeyed Jin Shoujiang's wishes, delivered Nie Xiaoxiao with her own hands, and saw with her own eyes how Nie Xiaoxiao broke through the gate of hell with a hoarse voice, all she had left for Jin Shoujiang was deep hatred. meaning.

How could he match a good girl like Nie Xiaoxiao?How to match?

Nie Xiaoxiao has been holding on to Yi Yi's sleeves tightly, and has never dared to pinch her hand. She just needs to make sure that Yi Yi is there, and it's fine if she hurts alone, and she can't pass on her pain to Yi Yi. on hand.

"Sister..." Yiyi couldn't hold back her tears, and the tears fell down. She hated the child for torturing her mother so much.

"Don't cry... I don't hurt... really... it doesn't hurt..." Seeing Yi Yi crying into tears, Nie Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth, wishing she could give birth to the baby in her womb immediately.

Yi Yi turned his face away, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the frightening blood on the corner of Nie Xiaoxiao's skirt, but no one saw it, and there was a killing intent in her eyes.

This crime was given by Jin Shoujiang, she must let Jin Shoujiang taste it too, what pain is like!

"what--"

Nie Xiaoxiao struggled desperately for several hours, and finally gave birth to the child.

The child cried loudly and was carried over by the maid, who washed off the dirt on his body with warm water, then quickly wrapped her in a small jacket and carried her over.

"Hold away!" Yi Yi shouted angrily.

It was the first time for the maids to see Yi Yi getting angry, and they were shocked.

Nie Xiaoxiao lay weakly on the bed, frowning quietly looking at Yi Yi.

Yi Yi thought to himself that he had lost his composure, and held back his tears and said in a hoarse voice: "I'll wipe my sister's body first, change into clean clothes, and then my sister will hug her."

"Okay..." Nie Xiaoxiao replied weakly.

Yi Yi brought another basin of hot water, and untied Nie Xiaoxiao's clothes that were soaked in blood and sweat, and wiped gently while trembling slightly.

"In the future... I'll hold an umbrella for you..."

Yi Yi said something hoarsely, but the maids didn't understand what was going on.

Nie Xiaoxiao looked at her weakly, forced herself to laugh, "When it's not raining..."

"Yes." Yi Yi answered simply.

"Don't be afraid... I can hold... hold..."

"Um……"

"Wait for me...wait for me to be better...I'll give you...an umbrella..."

"it is good……"

The two looked at each other deeply, tears streaming down their faces.

She and her involuntarily pursed the corners of their mouths, and those words that were not explained clearly, or that were not spoken, all turned into this gentle and affectionate smile, and spread on each other's faces.

Jin Shoujiang did not return to Shicheng until three days later. Hearing that he had become a father, he ran all the way into the small courtyard in ecstasy. Before he entered the room, his voice came in first.

"Is it a man or a woman?"

Yi Yi, who was serving the decoction by the bed, darkened a step ahead of Nie Xiaoxiao.

Nie Xiaoxiao quietly tugged on her sleeve, not bothering to look up at Jin Shoujiang, she asked weakly, "When will you go to Haicheng to divorce?"

Jin Shoujiang frowned, "How long will you fight with me over this matter before you stop?"

"I don't want her to be the second me." Nie Xiaoxiao looked at the pink and jade-carved little doll beside her. Although she hadn't opened her eyes yet, her eyebrows and eyes resembled her very much, very pretty.

Jin Shoujiang couldn't hide his face, he squinted at Yi Yi, "Yi Yi, is she sick?"

"Sister..." Yi Yi stopped to look at Nie Xiaoxiao, nodded and sighed, "I'm really sick."

Jin Shoujiang knew that Yi Yi was the person who understood his heart best, "I'll trouble you to take care of him these few days, if Xiao Xiao still hasn't improved, I'll order someone to send him back to Xiyang City to recuperate."

"Jin Shoujiang, what do you mean?" Nie Xiaoxiao subconsciously pinched the silk bell on the side of the pillow, and she looked at Yi Yi in astonishment, "You... what do you mean?"

Jin Shoujiang said coldly: "Sick Xiaoxiao is not suitable for taking care of children."

Yi Yi smiled and said: "General, let me heal my sister for a few days, maybe she will recover?"

"Is she okay?" Jin Shoujiang asked unhappily.

Yi Yi's smile didn't decrease a bit, "Take the right medicine, and it will get better naturally."

"What kind of symptomatic method?" Jin Shoujiang asked.

"Heart disease needs heart medicine. The general's and sister's heart disease started from the young lady's marriage. Did the general receive an engagement token?" Yiyi was startled when Nie Xiaoxiao let go of her sleeve, and she turned to face her. He looked at her with a smile, and said silently, "Don't be angry." When he turned his head, he met Jin Shoujiang's suspicious eyes calmly, and said slowly: "If the general believes in me, you can give me the token. Maybe I can do it in a few days." How about persuading my sister?"

Jin Shoujiang was silent for a moment, nodded and said: "I'll take it right away, but..." He no longer had any expectations for Nie Xiaoxiao, "If she becomes violent all of a sudden, you have to be careful." Looking over there, what he wants to do most now is to hug this child.

"General, hurry up, the child can't run away." Yi Yi gave Jin Shoujiang a wink.

Jin Shoujiang nodded and exited the room, not forgetting to say to the two maids at the door: "Keep an eye on it, don't let Xiaoxiao hurt Yiyi."

"Yes, General." The servant girl bowed.

Nie Xiaoxiao looked at Yi Yi puzzledly, with a hint of anger in his eyes, "Why did you help him?"

"Good sister, I'm helping you." Yi Yi took her hand distressedly, "Trust me once, okay?" With a gentle expression, no one could bear to say "no" to anyone.

Nie Xiaoxiao didn't answer.

Yi Yi gently caressed Nie Xiaoxiao's face, "Sister, just take good care of yourself and don't worry about other things."

"What do you want to do?" Nie Xiaoxiao heard the meaning behind her words, and nervously covered the back of her hand, "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

"I think..." She didn't finish her sentence because she heard Jin Shoujiang's footsteps.

Jin Shoujiang brought in the golden bell makeup box, Yi Yi got up to meet it, took it solemnly, and hugged it in his arms, "I'm busy with the military, leave it to me, it will be fine."

Jin Shoujiang wanted to tell her not to lose it, but seeing Yiyi hugged her tightly, he smiled softly and said softly: "Be careful, I'm going to wrong you these few days."

"Don't worry, general, Yi Yi knows that the general will feel distressed."

"It's good to know."

Jin Shoujiang scratched the tip of Yiyi's nose recklessly, and strode away.

"Close the door. I'll scrub and change my sister's clothes. She can't stand the cold." Yi Yi ordered, and the two maids are not blind. Who is Jin Shoujiang favoring? Their eyes are bright.

The two nodded, and pulled the door shut.

After Yiyi bolted the door, he walked over with the golden bell makeup box in his arms. Under Nie Xiaoxiao's astonished gaze, he sat beside her and opened the golden bell makeup box—a golden bell earring Yes, a pair of hairpins and bells between the temples, a golden bell hairpin, and a golden bell step shaker.

Yi Yi smiled and picked out a hairpin from the sideburns and put it in Nie Xiaoxiao's palm, "Sister, I like this, can you wear it for me?"

"This is... a token." Nie Xiaoxiao reminded her seriously.

Yi Yi nodded, "I know this is a token, so I cherish it very much."

Nie Xiaoxiao looked down at the hairpin on her palm, feeling mixed feelings, and said in a deep voice, "Yiyi, I just want my daughter to stop following me..."

"So these decorations are not her tokens. She will marry whoever she likes in the future." Yi Yi smiled at Nie Xiaoxiao, "I think this will be my token and your token."

Nie Xiaoxiao couldn't believe what she heard, "You...you said..."

"I like Jinling." Yi Yi smiled, "It's a pity that there are only earrings that are in pairs with this one. It's a little strange to wear only one earring, so, can I get one of this?"

Nie Xiaoxiao hesitated: "But...you don't dislike me..."

"Will you despise me because I am a concubine?" Yi Yi interrupted Nie Xiaoxiao and asked directly without waiting for her to finish her novel.

Nie Xiaoxiao shook his head.

"Will you despise me because I'm from a different race?" Yi Yi asked again.

Nie Xiaoxiao shook his head again.

"Would you... because I'm a woman like you... dislike me?" Yi Yi's voice was a little trembling, she stared at Nie's small eyes, "I'll only say these nonsense this time, if you hate me because of it Me, that's what I deserve, and you don't have to answer me."

"Yi Yi." Nie Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate at all this time, and raised her hand to give her the hairpin on her temples, and put her palms on her cheeks coolly, "When I take care of myself, Let's take the kids with us."

"Okay." Yi Yi tilted his head slightly, pressed his cheek tightly against her palm, and stroked the calluses on Nie Xiaoxiao's fingertips, "Xiao Xiao, do you know that you are the first person in this world who treats me sincerely."

Nie Xiaoxin felt warm and said with a smile: "Your parents also treat you sincerely."

"It's not the same." Yi Yi's smile was mixed with a trace of sadness, she had always been an orphan, and never experienced the aching warmth of being held in the palm of her parents.

Nie Xiaoxiao saw her sad look, and guessed that Yiyi's parents must have left very early, that's why she said such things.She felt sorry for Yi Yi, stretched out her arms to hold Yi Yi in her arms, and stroked her back, "In the future... there will be me..."

"Yeah." Yi Yi smiled with tears in his eyes, the king's dead man can't just leave, unless it's death.Thinking of this, she subconsciously touched the small sachet at her waist. The small porcelain bottle in the sachet was her last way of life.

It was a secret method she saw by chance from the library of the dead man. As long as she succeeded in refining Gu, she could fake death like a corpse, and when she woke up again, there would be no such person as Yi Yi in the world.

The same method can also be used for Nie Xiaoxiao.

Only when Nie Xiaoxiao died, the word "faithfulness" of the Escort would no longer be her shackles.

At that time, she and her will be able to live freely in the world and live their lives freely.

It's just that, after all, it's just a secret technique, and no one has really practiced it.Even if it is practiced well, she doesn't know whether it will be effective or not, so the best way is to quietly feed the practiced Gu to Jin Shoujiang, and use him as a living person to test the Gu.

"Yi Yi, promise me, don't act foolishly, you don't have martial arts, you are not his opponent." Nie Xiaoxiao's voice rang in her ear, Yi Yi didn't finish her words just now, she was afraid that Yi Yi would do something stupid.

"I'll listen to you." Yi Yi replied obediently.

Nie Xiaoxiao was full of joy, supported Yiyi's shoulders, and slightly opened the distance between her and her, "I'm really happy today..."

"I'm still a little bit short." Yiyi said while leaning closer to Nie Xiaoxiao, pecked Nie Xiaoxiao's lips, and said with a smile, "Now I too... um..."

Nie Xiaoxiao's kiss came so urgently that Yi Yi blocked her lips before she could finish her sentence.

Yi Yi is not only white and greasy, but his lips are also soft and crisp.

It was the first time for Nie Xiaoxiao to take the initiative to get close to someone. After a kiss, she even felt a little shy, let go of Yi Yi, stepped back, and said in a low voice, "I just want...to try..."

"Try what?" Yi Yi asked knowingly, moved closer to Nie Xiaoxiao's lips, kissed, and whispered, "Try...do you like women after all? Let's try...will the little pepper suddenly become hot? Get up?" While speaking, she slightly opened her lips, and lightly bit Nie Xiaoxiao's lips.

Nie Xiaoxiao couldn't help shivering, covering her mouth in shame and annoyance and looking at her, "You...you actually bit me?"

"Hiss..." Yi Yi took a deep breath, pretended to eat spicy food, and smiled while fanning, "Sure enough, it still has a spicy taste."

"I thought you were a..."

"A girl from a good family?"

Yiyi is clearly provocative, but in the provocative words, some truths are hidden, "If you find out that I am not a good girl, will Xiaoxiao despise me?"

"You're talking nonsense again." Nie Xiaoxiao cupped her cheeks and said word by word, "Yi Yi is very good, better than many people in the world."

"I'll do something wrong too." The corners of Yi Yi's lips raised slightly, "Will you...don't want me when the time comes?"

"No one is perfect, everyone will make mistakes." Nie Xiaoxiao leaned forward, lowering Yiyi's forehead, "Don't be afraid, if you make mistakes, I will accompany you to correct them, or make up for them together. ,after……"

"What's next?" Yi Yi asked nervously.

"In the future, the two of us...will cherish and love each other for the rest of our lives."

Nie Xiaoxiao never thought that she could say such love words. After she finished speaking, she became even more ashamed, but was kissed hard by Yi Yi, turning all love words into tenderness between lips and tongue, turning today's time It became the best memory in the future.

Under Yi Yi's care, Nie Xiaoxiao's body is getting better day by day.

Jin Shoujiang's construction of the plank road has also reached the most critical time, whether to go through the valley and cut through the last mountain wall, erect an iron bridge that flies across the mountain stream, or continue to build along the mountain, and finally bypass the Longshou Mountain in front of him to reach the desert?

Although one is dangerous, it can be repaired in the shortest time. Although the other is safe, it will take several years of construction.

Jin Shoujiang wrote several letters back to Lidu, asking the commander-in-chief to make a decision, but the commander-in-chief never replied to a single letter.After struggling for a few days, Jin Shoujiang decided to start the construction at the same time, although it was slower, he should wait for the final decision of Commander Wolf.

After autumn, Nie Xiaoxiao's body has recovered very well, and she even occasionally wears accessories from the golden bell makeup box.

Seeing this, Jin Shoujiang couldn't help being secretly surprised.

It seems that Yi Yi has indeed treated her well.

Jin Shoujiang wanted to take the initiative to talk to Nie Xiaoxiao several times, but was dismissed by Yi Yi with a smile.Jin Shoujiang hugged the empty pillow at night and thought about it. If Yi Yi could really heal Nie Xiaoxiao, it would be worth it for him to stay alone in the empty room for a few days.Fortunately, Yiyi occasionally brought the little lady to show him. Jin Shoujiang held the little baby in his arms, was very happy, and named her Jin Lingdang.

Yes, in the later days of Jin Shoujiang, whether it was a granddaughter or a great-granddaughter, he only gave them the same name.

At first I liked it, but later I felt regretful, but these are all things for later.

With the reason of treating Nie Xiaoxiao, Yi Yi went to the mountains to collect medicine more often. First, he could take the opportunity to quietly draw the direction of the plank road, and second, he could find more poisonous insects to refine Gu.

There is not much time left for her.

Nie Xiaoxiao is well-raised, so naturally she can't always rest in the room.

This day, she practiced a few moves in the court with a silk bell, but she felt a little out of breath.She smiled dumbly, and pinched her cheeks, only to feel that they were rounder than a few days ago.

All of Yiyi's decoctions are supplements, Nie Xiaoxiao shook her head, fearing that she could no longer let her continue supplementing like this.

This day Yiyi came back later than usual, but his mood was better than usual.

As usual, she brought the soup and medicine, and after entering the room, she saw Nie Xiaoxiao frowned, "I don't want to drink this today."

Yi Yi put down the soup with a smile, "Then sister wants to drink, I'll make it for you."

"Come here." Nie Xiaoxiao waved at her.

Yi Yi walked over with a smile, and sat beside her, "What good thing did sister hide?" From the corner of her eye, she looked behind Nie Xiaoxiao, and there was a small bag bulging under the quilt behind her.

Nie Xiaoxiao took it out proudly, it turned out to be a silk bell she made with a takraw ball and a long rope, and she handed it to Yi Yi, "Isn't it a good agreement, you teach me poetry, and I will teach you silk bells. "

"Study today?"

"Ah."

"But sister, I'm really tired today."

"Then tomorrow?"

Yi Yi nodded, "Okay, tomorrow."

Nie Xiaoxin caressed the back of her head painfully, "You, I go to the mountains every day, I am very worried about you, in case there are some wild animals in the mountains..."

"The wild beasts in this area were almost beaten by the general and the people. Those who were not killed all ran away with their families. There will be no wild beasts." Thinking of those rough men who are greedy for meat, Yi Yi endured I couldn't help laughing.

"Don't mention him." Nie Xiaoxiao didn't like everything about Jin Shoujiang.

Yi Yi smiled and said: "Okay, don't mention him, lest I don't have candied fruit here, so I can relieve my sister's acid."

"Who hurt him?"

"I'm sour."

Yi Yi lay down on Nie Xiaoxiao's lap, pointing to the cradle next to the bed, "I also love her."

Nie Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing, "Are you sour with bells?"

"Yes, it's all sour." Yi Yi answered simply.

"What if... so?"

"Door……"

Yi Yi noticed Nie Xiaoxiao's intentions and quickly reminded him.

"Tonight...stay with me, don't go to sleep next door, okay?"

"I seem to smell the spiciness of a small pepper."

Nie Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "Just say, will you accompany me?"

"Accompany...why don't you want to accompany me?" Yi Yi rubbed the tip of Nie Xiaoxiao's nose and sat up, "Wait for me to come back."

"It's already dark outside, where are you going?" Nie Xiaoxiao asked.

Yi Yi deliberately sighed, "The general has been too hot lately, I promised him that I will give him a bowl of soup to relieve the fire."

Nie Xiaoxiao suddenly held her hand, "Don't go."

"I promise to come back." Yi Yi said softly, "I promise, okay?"

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's that I don't believe in Jin Shoujiang." Nie Xiaoxiao knew what this man was up to.

Yi Yi said in a low voice: "I have menstruation today, the general will be more or less scrupulous."

Only then did Nie Xiaoxiao let go, "Then... come back quickly, or I'll take Yansiling to deal with him."

"Okay." Yi Yi stood up, walked to the door, smiled deeply at Nie Xiaoxiao, and was willing to leave.

Nie Xiaoxiao waited in the room for half an hour and did not see Yi Yi coming back. She was very worried that if Jin Shoujiang couldn't hold back the anger that had been suppressed for half a year, it would be Yi Yi who would suffer.

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she became, and she even hated Jin Shoujiang, fearing that he would get his hands on Yi Yi again, so she simply took the silk bell, put on a cloak and left the room.

"Ma'am, it's getting dark, where are you going?"

"Keep an eye on the bell, I'll come back as soon as I go."

Nie Xiaoxiao dropped these words lightly, and hurried towards Jin Shoujiang's small courtyard.

Most of the stone cities are built of bricks and stones, so after nightfall, the night and the blackness of the stones blend together, making it even darker.Because Jin Shoujiang secretly built the plank road here, he wanted to make this stone city not easy to be discovered, so most of the stones used to repair the stone city were black stones.

"bass!"

Nie Xiaoxiao has been flying darts for many years, and he is most alert after nightfall. When he heard this sound, he followed his reputation.

A black shadow flew along the wall quickly. Ordinary people would only think it was a wild cat or a crow, but in Nie Xiaoxiao's view, it was definitely an unexpected visitor.

Pressing her footsteps, she quietly skimmed to the wall, listening to the movement on the other side of the wall.

Although Nie Xiaoxiao often recuperates in the room, she will occasionally let Yi Yi take her out for a walk, so she remembers that the other side of the wall is a stone room for miscellaneous items, where some rotten weapons or tools are thrown here, waiting Send it to Donglin City to find a craftsman to repair it and send it back.Therefore, it is dirty and messy here, and no one will come at night.

"What did you add to the soup?"

"poison."

Nie Xiaoxiao was shocked, not because she heard the words "poison and medicine", but because the person who said these two words was none other than Yi Yi, whom she cared most about.

"The plank road has not been completed yet, Jin Shoujiang will not die at this time!"

"I have almost drawn it, and the king can already explain it."

"Yi Yi, all selfish dead soldiers have only one way to die."

"I know better than anyone how to write dead characters."

"..."

"Jin Shoujiang is not dead, and I can't get away, so I can't send back the picture that the king wants."

"You can give it to me."

"Give it to you, can I still live?"

"Yi Yi, you seem to have changed."

"I will receive the work that is due to me, and others don't even think about it."

This is Yiyi's voice that Nie Xiaoxiao has never heard before. There is no gentleness, no tenderness, and some are just as indifferent as frost and snow.

Nie Xiaoxiao stood stunned by the wall in shock.

Later, she couldn't listen to what Yiyi said to that person, and Nie Xiaoxiao couldn't remember when Yiyi and that person separated.

A dead soldier of a foreign race, she is a dead soldier of a foreign race.

Then the words she said to her, the affection she had, how true or false?

Can you still trust her to cherish each other for a lifetime?

Do you dare to follow her with the bell?

Does she... really love her?

Nie Xiaoxiao sat down on the ground slumped, and soon there was a light in his peripheral vision, and Yiyi was slowly walking over with a lantern in his hand.

The darkness was swallowed inch by inch by the light of the lantern, and Yi Yi still smiled at her gently as always, and stretched out his hand gently toward her, "Didn't you say, wait for me to come back? Why did you fall down here?"

Nie Xiaoxiao stared blankly at her outstretched hand, hesitantly daring not to hold it.

She wanted to hold back the fear in her heart and act calmer, but unfortunately, she was never someone who could hide her emotions on her face, and she knew she couldn't hide it from Yi Yi.

Yi Yi sighed softly, stepped forward and gently lifted her up.

"Let go of me." Nie Xiaoxiao broke away from Yiyi's hand, took a step back, and pressed his vest against the wall, "You...what's the point of pretending like this?" As she spoke, she felt a pang in her heart. Sour, tears welled up in his eyes and dripped down his cheeks.
