Chapter 68 (1)
"What did you say!" Ling Dongyan came out from behind the table, tugged at Qi Xiu's sleeve, and asked him anxiously, "Master Qi, what did you just say?!" Qi Xiu looked at him expressionlessly and repeated. What I said just now, "The emperor and the empress have already left the palace. Tomorrow, the abdication edict will be read out, and the prince is asked to prepare to ascend the throne."
Ling Dongyan let go of his sleeves, anxiously walking around in the imperial study.Three years have passed, and this young man is already fourteen or fifteen years old. His brows and eyes have grown a little, and he looks handsome except for his childishness.He frowned, clenched a fist with one hand and smashed the palm of the other hand a few times, and stomped his foot, "Why didn't she tell me in advance? Lord Qi, where did Miss Huang go? I'm going to find her!"
Qi Xiu said, "Before he left, the emperor said that he wants the prince not to have a child's heart, and to govern the country well." Ling Dongyan stared at him dissatisfied, "I don't listen to this, tell me where she went." Qi Xiu shook his face firmly Shaking his head, he said in a cold voice, "The emperor won't let the minister tell the prince, and the minister should obey the order." Ling Dongyan's forehead was bulging, but he also knew his temperament of refraining from oil and salt. He sat back behind the table and gritted his teeth. Sulk with yourself.
As soon as Gu Zhang stepped into the imperial study room, he felt the strange atmosphere. Qi Xiu stood still like a wooden man, and Ling Dongyan was silent behind the table.He walked over, looked at the two of them, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" Ling Dongyan looked up at him, and said sullenly, "Sister Huang is gone." Gu Zhang raised his eyebrows, but he just murmured One sound.
Gu Zhang is already 19 years old this year, and he is no longer the child who followed Ling Muqing and pestered her to play with him.He looks talented, his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Gu Heng, but his temperament is not as awe-inspiring, he is gentle and elegant like an ordinary scholar.When Ling Dongyan was first crowned prince, Gu Zhang was his accompanying student. Later, Gu Zhang took part in the imperial examination and won the first place at a young age. Ling Muqing was often brought by his side to cultivate him, so he and Ling Dongyan had a good relationship.
What Ling Muqing taught Gu Zhang most often was to be loyal to the emperor and love the country. He also listened carefully and memorized those four words.Ling Muqing had more or less revealed his intention to abdicate, but Gu Zhang was an exquisite mind, so how could he not see it.Therefore, he was not too surprised to hear such a sudden news, and he was naturally reluctant, but he always believed that Ling Muqing's decision was right.
After all, Ling Dongyan was still young, and he was spoiled by Mo Liangyi on weekdays, throwing temper tantrums like a child.Gu Zhang leaned over to reason with him, Ling Dongyan ignored him, he turned to look at Qi Xiu, Qi Xiu curled his lips vaguely, expressing that he had no choice.After all, children still have to rely on coaxing. Gu Zhang has been coaxing him for several years, and he waved to Qi Xiu that he could handle it, so Qi Xiu resigned.
Lin Chen was waiting for Qi Xiu outside the door, and when he saw him coming out, he rushed up to meet him, "How is it?" Qi Xiu continued walking, only glanced at him, and asked, "How about what?" Lin Chen said, "Prince, are you arguing to see the emperor? I just saw Gu Zhang go in. If you leave him alone, can you take care of the prince?"
Qi Xiu sneered, and said casually, "You have a big heart." Lin Chen followed him step by step, shrugging his shoulders noncommittally.A passing patrol team saluted the two of them, Qi Xiu only nodded coldly, but Lin Chen was very cordial.Qi Xiu squinted at him, "What are you always following me for? Do you have nothing to do?"
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, and asked him suspiciously, "No, aren't we going to find the emperor?" Qi Xiu squinted his eyes and looked at him like an idiot, "Who told you that we are going to find the emperor?" Lin Chen Some didn't understand the situation, and asked bluntly, "Then we two, don't we need to protect the emperor? No, Qi Xiu, the emperor and empress have left, don't we need to follow?"
"Are you sick?" Qi Xiu finally couldn't help complaining, "Isn't the emperor's abdication just to be a couple of ordinary couples with the empress, how could he take us with him?" Lin Chen jumped up all of a sudden. He got up, stretched his neck and yelled, "Did the emperor leave just like that? I am her savior, I must always protect her safety! She clearly said that she wanted us to stay and deal with the aftermath..."
Lin Chen also understood that Ling Muqing knew that he was difficult to deal with, so he directly tricked him and left him in the capital and ran away with Mo Liangyi.Lin Chen slapped his thigh, lowered his head in frustration, and muttered, "The emperor will find me annoying, and I'm not here to protect her."
Qi Xiu rolled his eyes silently, kicked his toes, and reluctantly comforted him, "It's the same for protecting the prince, and the emperor has Xu Niwei by his side, which is much more useful than you." Lin Chen looked at him sadly, Qi Xiu Xiu smiled helplessly, "Okay, can a big man stop being so hypocritical?" Lin Chen glared at him, "What do you know!"
"I don't understand, don't talk to me." Qi Xiu finally got impatient, turned around and continued walking, Lin Chen stared fiercely at the back of his head, wishing to stare at a hole.After staring at Qi Xiu for a long while and still not responding, Lin Chen was discouraged and reluctantly followed.
The barren hill in Qingyang County was already lush with greenery. There were trees planted by Ji Wuxia for more than [-] years growing on it. There were two graves next to the forest halfway up the mountain. One looked like it had been around for a long time, and the other The soil has just been added, and it still looks like a new grave.
"Anyway, it's the grave of the national teacher and her master, so you can't add more soil." Ling Muqing dug a hole with a wooden stick, put paper money in it, and complained casually.Sitting next to her was Qi Xin, still dressed in plain clothes and pale, like a female ghost who haunts the day.Qi Xin sat on the ground without getting dirty, holding a handkerchief, and was wiping Ji Wuxia's tombstone.
Qixin turned her head to look at Ling Muqing, and gently pulled the corner of her mouth, "I added this soil myself, so I didn't spend so much effort." She wiped the tombstone clean, stared at it for a while, and smiled.Ling Muqing didn't bother to look at her stupid look, and waved to the woman not far away, "Liang Yi, bring the fire pocket."
Holding a jug of wine in one hand and a fire bag in the other, Mo Liang walked slowly to Ling Muqing's side.Ling Muqing took the fire pocket and lit the paper money, Qixin looked at her, and confessed, "I accidentally set this forest on fire last time, you have to be careful."
"I know, I know." Ling Muqing murmured with some disgust, "It's really unlucky, I wanted to go to Qingzhou, but I passed by Qingyang to see the national teacher, but I still met you. I said that you, as the emperor of Qiguo, have nothing to do. I run in Lingguo without anyone by my side, if something happens, whose fault is it?
Qixin took the jug from Mo Liangyi, took two sips from the spout, poured the rest in front of Ji Wuxia's grave, and replied, "It's mine." Ling Muqing shook his head helplessly, Mo Liang squatted on his knees next to Ling Muqing, turned his head to look at Qi Xin, and asked, "I heard, what kind of male pet did you get recently to neglect your imperial husband?"
"I didn't treat him well, so what's the point of being indifferent?" Qi Xin finished pouring the wine, hugged the jug in his arms, and stared at Ji Wuxia's grave in a daze.Mo Liang smiled, "You know what I want to ask." Ling Muqing leaned against the tree and sat down, throwing paper money into the burning earth pit every now and then, just like Mo Liangyi Looking at Qixin.
Qixin tilted her head and thought for a while, then said softly, "I had a dream last month, and I dreamed that Wuxia came back to life. After I woke up, I couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, so I sent the imperial list to find her. Haha , When I really woke up, I ordered people to withdraw the imperial list, but there was an official from somewhere who sent someone to me."
"It looks pretty similar," Qi Xin squinted her eyes and smiled, "I mean it looks like the portrait. You also know that I can't draw, and the drawing is not flawless, so that person only has some similarities between his eyebrows and eyes." I don’t have those god-stick temperaments, that mouth that can irritate people when I speak, none of them. But it’s very good, thanks to my courtiers who are not stupid, they didn’t find me a Taoist priest directly. "
Qi Xin acted like she was joking, but her eyes were filled with sadness. She felt that she was quite hypocritical, she said that she didn't like it, but she still left people behind.As long as you can see that face day and night, even if it doesn't look like much, a little shadow is enough.
Ling Muqing pouted, stretched out his feet and kicked the dirt into the pit, burying the fire.She pulled Mo Liang up together, helped her pat the dirt on her body, took her hand, and raised her chin at Qixin, "I don't want to care about your nonsense. Let's go first, and see you later. "
Qi Xin raised his head to look at them, his eyes flickered, suddenly blurred, "That's great." Mo Liang nodded silently as soon as he knew what she was referring to, Qi Xin waved to them, "Let's go, Let's go, let me accompany her well." Ling Muqing took a deep look at her, took Mo Liangyi's hand and turned around.
"Muqing." Qi Xin called Ling Muqing quite intimately, and Ling Muqing turned to look at her, "What's the matter?" Qi Xin smiled, "I heard that your paintings are pretty good, please draw one for me later I'll send someone to Qingzhou to pick it up when it's time." Ling Muqing looked at her for a while, then nodded slightly, "Okay, let's talk to Dr. Mo, it's easy to find."
Qi Xin didn't thank her either, and waved her hand again, watching Ling Muqing and Mo Liangyi go further and further away, and finally disappeared.She picked up the jug in her arms and slammed it on Ji Wuxia's tombstone. The tombstone was so hard that the jug shattered.Qi Xin blinked, lowered her head and laughed silently, then slowly, she cried.
The carriage was standing at the foot of the mountain, Ling Muqing sent a Xu Niwei to watch, seeing them descending the mountain, Xu Niwei consciously disappeared.Ling Muqing hugged Mo Liangyi in his arms, and walked all the way with light work, and soon reached the foot of the mountain.Mo Liang patted her on the shoulder, Ling Muqing put her down obediently, Mo Liang stood still, and looked back up the mountain.
"Let's go." Ling Muqing smiled and took Mo Liangyi's hand and shook it. June was full of beauty, and there were unknown little flowers blooming on both roadsides. This situation, this situation, this person, and this life are all It should be the best.
With Ling Muqing's support, Mo Liangyi got into the carriage, and Ling Muqing sat in front of the carriage with a whip in his hand.Mo Liang lifted the car curtain and rubbed against Ling Muqing, Ling Muqing looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong?" Mo Liang also smiled, put his hands around her neck, and whispered in her ear, "Suddenly I remembered the past."
Once on the way to Lintong Pass, the two of them shared a carriage like this. The ruts took away the years, and the driver changed, but they could not escape their fate.Ling Muqing tilted his head slightly, and kissed Mo Liangyi's temples, "The national teacher is right, cherish the person in front of you. Liang Yi, Ling Muqing will always have you by his side in this life, what can I ask for?"
Mo Liang simply sat next to her, Ling Muqing pushed her in, she curled her lips, "Don't always take care of me like this, I'm not too weak." Ling Muqing raised his horsewhip, took time to glance at her with a smile With a glance, he said, "You are the wife I am marrying. I don't care if you are weak or not. I just want to take care of you like this."
Mo Liang puffed up his cheeks, turned his head to look at Ling Muqing who was concentrating on driving the car, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
Smile like a flower, all the way to the north.
The author has something to say: HAPPYEND!
It is expected that there will be two extra chapters, one chapter of Ji Wuxia X Qixin, and one chapter of Zhong Qin (after all, only two people responded to me when asking for opinions...) will be released this week~
Thanks for being with me all the way (bow!
☆、Extra: Qixin
Qixin didn't know if Ji Wuxia was the one who saved her, and she didn't want to know anymore.She always remembers the woman who snatched her away from Lord Yan when she was 15 years old, and she will never forget the scene when she met Ji Wuxia when she was 21 years old.The six years seem to overlap, the same eyebrows, the same smile, and the reunion in exchange is her whole life.
In these days, Qi Xin often wears white clothes and sits in the Hall of Autumn Coolness in a daze.She doesn't care about political affairs, doesn't care about the people, but she doesn't enjoy herself or be stupid.She is really not a competent emperor. She has been married to the emperor's husband for several years and has no children. The courtiers have made a lot of troubles, and she is annoyed.
Later, inspired by Ling Muqing, he chose a child who had a good eye for him from the clan, and made him the Crown Prince, who he always brought with him.It's just that Ling Muqing raised the crown prince a bit, so he and Mo Liangyi could live happily together, but what about her?Even if she trains the little prince to be a qualified heir in the future, who can she live a comfortable life with?
The prince selected by Qixin was only over six years old. She named him Yu Sheng and asked the child to call her mother.Since Ji Wuxia's death, Qi Xin's temperament has changed drastically, and those violent factors hidden in his bones and blood have also been released, and from time to time he likes to lose his temper with yin and yang.It's just that she treats the little prince very well and does everything by herself. It's rare for a child who remembers things to really treat her as his biological mother.
It's just that she never let the little prince call her imperial husband "Daddy", the little prince only listened to her, and obediently obediently, every time he called her imperial husband very politely.Qixin taught the little prince to read poems, she read a sentence, and the little prince followed a sentence, the childish voice made her roll her eyes every time.
Once, the little prince asked her with blinking eyes, "Mother, what do you mean when you look back at Hua Cong lazily, half destined to practice Taoism and half destined to be king?" Qixin was stunned for a moment, smiled and rubbed his head , "It's not interesting, you will understand when you grow up." The little prince nodded, obediently flipping through the poems below.
Take a look at the flowering lazy, half-edge monastic half-edge.
What's the meaning?Qixin, I don't understand either.She lowered her eyebrows and looked at Qi Yusheng who was holding a book in his hand, carefully debating every word, and her vision gradually blurred.After her old friend left, she also devoted herself to Taoism, trying to get closer to her, but what's the use?
Sometimes Qixin would tell stories to the little prince, saying that her mother knew a Taoist priest in the past, but he was so powerful that he could calculate everything.Qi Yu looked at her anxiously, "Mother, where is that Taoist priest? I also want her to do the math for me." Qi Xin pursed her lips and smiled bitterly, "She is already dead. .”
died?The little prince didn't understand what it meant, Qixin explained to him, "When you die, you just go to a far away place and never come back again." Qi Yusheng nodded thoughtfully, then sighed pretentiously. He took a deep breath, "It's a pity, I still want her to figure it out for me, when can mother take me out to play!"
The child didn't know how to hide his thoughts, which made Qixin laugh, and not long after, Qixin left for Lingguo to pay homage to Ji Wuxia, and took the little prince along with him.The little prince was very excited when he went up the mountain, but after a while he became tired and couldn't walk anymore.Qixin hugged him with his left hand and a bamboo basket with his right, and walked up the hillside step by step.
Putting Qi Yusheng down and telling him not to run around, Qi Xin started to tidy up.In order not to stain her body with dirt, she was wearing a black dress and bent down to pull the weeds from Ji Wuxia's grave.Qi Yusheng looked at her, holding on to the bamboo basket at his feet, wondering why the expression of his always gentle and amiable mother became so serious.
"Yu Sheng, bring the white cloth in the basket." Qi Xin pulled out the grass, sat in front of the tombstone and told the little prince.Qi Yusheng quickly opened the basket, took out the white cloth towel, quickly moved his short legs to Qi Xin's side, and handed the white cloth to her.Qi Xin praised him a few words, folded the cloth towel, and began to wipe the dust on the tombstone.
Qi Yusheng squatted beside her, holding his small face and looking at her curiously, "Mother, what are you doing?" Qi Xin looked at him, spread the cloth towel in his hand and tore it into two parts, and handed the smaller half to her. He gave it to Qi Yusheng, "Come on, help mother wipe it together." Qi Yusheng took the cloth towel, took two steps forward, squeezed the cloth into a ball and wiped vigorously.
After rubbing the tombstone up and down, Qixin took Qi Yusheng's hand to signal that he could stop, and said slowly, "Inside, the most important person of mother is buried." Qi Yusheng carried Qi Xin nodded, and Qi Yusheng pouted, "But why did you bury it?"
The little prince was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he was well protected. He was simpler than ordinary children, and he couldn't understand some things at all.Qixin told him, "Because she won't come back, she just died, and no one can see her again, so I buried her." The little prince looked terrified, "Mother, I won't leave You, I will let you see me for the rest of my life, don't bury me!"
"Stupid child," Qi Xin smiled, "When will you grow up?" Qi Yusheng smiled foolishly, "I don't want to grow up, Mr. Wang said that when I grow up, I have to learn how to govern the country, so I can't be with my mother." We played together." Qixin touched his forehead, Qi Yusheng pouted and kissed her face, and said seriously, "But I still have to grow up, mother protects me now, when I grow up When I grow up, I will also protect my mother and love my mother very much."
Qi Xin said something really good, Qi Yusheng walked around in a circle, walked over and hugged the tombstone, "Although this person is not coming back, but she is so important to mother, mother must be very reluctant to part with her, right? Just like if mother doesn't come back, Yu Sheng will be very sad and reluctant." Qi Xin just smiled and said nothing, Qi Yu Sheng poked the tombstone with his chubby hand, and said with a smile, "Then I will replace her , stay with mother forever!"
Children are ignorant, but they know how to compare their hearts with their hearts. Qi Xin held him in his arms and said yes softly.After that, Qixin took Qi Yusheng to burn paper money and offer wine to Ji Wuxia. The children were quite curious about these and watched carefully.Qixin suddenly looked back at him, and said with a smile, "Yu Sheng, someday my mother will go too, remember to bury my mother here too."
Qi Yusheng looked puzzled, "Where are you going, mother?" Qi Xin put away his things, held an empty basket in his left hand, and Qi Yusheng's little hand in his right, looked at the grave with sad eyes, and sighed softly. "Go to a place that can make people happy." Qi Yusheng pouted, not knowing what was going on in his little head.
When Qi Yusheng was eight years old, Qi Xin stopped taking him often.He is always the crown prince chosen by her, so he should fulfill the duties of the crown prince. She found many teachers for him and let him learn many things.Qi Yusheng didn't make trouble, and obediently followed what she said, even if it was to learn those obscure things he didn't like.
When Qi Yusheng was ten years old, the imperial concubine died of illness, Qi Xin had always been dressed in black and plain robes, and this time he was asked to wear mourning clothes.In fact, the death of the emperor's husband is a major event, and the whole country should mourn, but Qi Xin's attitude is very cold.She has always been a very selfish person, she doesn't care whether she deserves it or not, or who is more pitiful.As long as I think of marrying that person on the day Ji Wuxia died, I wish there wouldn't be such a person in the world.And now, it's finally clean.
A few years later, there were very few people in the palace. The inexplicable male favorite was dismissed by Qi Xin long before Qi Yusheng entered the palace. Later, the imperial husband died again. The huge palace does not count those palace people. The guards were actually only Qi Xin and Qi Yusheng.A courtier bit the bullet and responded to such a question with Qixin. Qixin was in a good temper at the time, and he didn't get angry or make a fuss, so he took the booklet and put it on the corner of the table, and no one dared to mention it later.
When Qi Yusheng was 15 years old, Qi Xin had already passed the age, his face was not old, but his whole body was full of vicissitudes.Qixin asked Qi Yusheng, "I really can't do what the emperor is doing. What do you think will be called me in history in the future? Don't you think you are a fool?" The crown prince shook his head, took her hand and said, "In the heart of my son, You have always been a good emperor, and you will be admired by all people in the history books."
Qi Xin smiled and shook his head, "Whatever should be done, I really can't stand up to the admiration of all people. It's just Yu Sheng, you have to promise me, don't become a person like me." Qi Yusheng rolled his eyes, lowered his head and looked down He replied dully, "I know." In fact, in his heart, Qixin is the best person, and the person most worthy of his study.
Qi Yusheng knows that Qi Xin has three most precious things, and even he cannot touch them casually.One is the blood jade finger wrench that she wears on her hand and never leaves her body. She said it was a birthday gift from the late emperor, and she also said it was the only thought left by her old friend. Qi Yusheng waited a long time before getting it. I understand what she means.
The second is a kit, Qi Xin put it next to his pillow and looked at it every night to sleep.Qi Yusheng felt very strange, he never figured out what was in there, he only knew that Qi Xin was not allowed to be touched by anyone.A new lady-in-waiting had tidied up her bed and put it aside without putting it back. When she found out about it, she chopped off both of his hands without explanation.
It was the first time in Qi Yusheng's life that he saw Qi Xin's ruthlessness, so even though he was curious, he didn't dare to touch it, and he didn't even dare to ask.There is also a painting that hangs in the Imperial Study Room, and it is very well maintained.In the painting a woman in a Taoist robe, with a hippie smile on her face, does not have the temperament of a cultivator at all. Qi Yusheng thought that some ancient paintings handed down from generation to generation deserved Qi Xin's careful treatment. Only later did I hear that it was only painted by Qi Xin.
Qi Xin was only 37 years old when she died, and her hair was already gray. The imperial doctor said that she had been suffering from depression over the years, and there was no cure for it.Before she died, Qi Yusheng, who was two or three years away from being crowned, almost lost his breath from crying, Qi Xin touched his face with exhaustion, but actually smiled.She said, "For the rest of my life, my mother can finally be free."
Qi Yusheng burst into tears. He yelled, "No, I don't want you to die. Mother, I want your protection for the rest of my life. What will I do if you die?" Qi Xin said, "You have grown up. I can't cry anymore." Qi Yusheng didn't listen to her, and kept crying like a child.
"Yu Sheng," Qi Xin took his hand, "Listen to what mother has to say." Qi Yu Sheng bit his lip, looked at her with red eyes, Qi Xin sighed, and explained carefully, "The funeral should not be too big. Do, where I should be buried, I told you a long time ago. You can cremate me, and just bury the ashes. My bedside kit, you remember, must be buried with me. This finger-wrench is left to You, let it stay with you for me."
She slowly took off the finger spanner that she had worn for more than ten years, and put it on Qi Yusheng's thumb. Qi Yusheng knelt beside her bed, weeping silently, not daring to cry again.Qixin rubbed his head, "Good boy, you are more suitable to be an emperor than your mother. Remember, it is enough for the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Don't go to war, don't fight."
Qi Yusheng nodded and kept nodding, he agreed to whatever she said.Qi Xin felt relieved, moved her gaze to the ceiling, and said softly, "Didn't you always want to know who the person in that painting is? Let me tell you now, that is me, the only person I have ever loved in this life. That painting does not need Burial, you burn it, tear it up, it doesn’t matter.”
Qi Xin reached out and groped around the bed, Qi Yusheng found the kit for her and put it in her palm.Qi Xin held the kit in her heart, and muttered to herself, "I'm so many years late, and I don't know she's still waiting for me." She raised her eyelids and glanced at Qi Yusheng, and finally, slowly closed Eyes, also stopped breathing.
Qi Yusheng didn't burst into tears at this moment, but respectfully kowtowed his head three times, and shouted with a trembling voice, "I send my mother off!" Tears fell on the ground, and Qi Yusheng wiped them Scratching his face, he slowly stood up.There was a lot of crying inside and outside the palace, and some palace people shouted "The emperor is dead" to inform the ministers, Qi Yusheng suddenly felt that he was separated from the world.
The person who treated him best in this world died, but she should be happy, Qi Yusheng suddenly didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
Mother, I hope you can really find her.
The author has something to say: The extras are a bit late =_=
☆、Extra: Rebirth
Qi Xin felt that she had a dream, a long, long dream.She seemed to be dreaming of her whole life, her father, her country, and Ji Wuxia.The dream was so absurd and so real that when she woke up, she didn't know where she was.
She sat on the bed, stared blankly at the familiar room, and bit her lips in disbelief.She couldn't tell whether it was a dream just now or it was a dream now.She remembered that she was obviously dead, and Qi Yusheng's cry still lingered in her mind. How could everything be messed up when she opened her eyes?She reached out and touched the corner of her mouth, where there were teeth marks from her bite, which were a little itchy.
The door opened with a creak, Qi Xin turned his head to look, and Hong Jing, the eunuch close to Qi Tianen, came in.She sat quietly, and Hong Jing stood still a few steps away from her bed, bowing his body with a smile, "Your Highness is awake?" He called her His Highness, not His Majesty, nor His Majesty.Qi Xin lowered her head to look at her hands, her skin was delicate and tender, although there were some calluses, but it was still clearly a pair of girls' hands.
"Director Hong." Qixin spoke slowly, hearing the long-lost boyish voice in his ears.Hong Jing responded to her, "What is your Highness' order?" Qi Xin trembled a little, and stretched out a hand to him, "Bring me the mirror." Hong Jing was confused, but still obeyed her words , went to the dressing table and got her a mirror.
Qi Xin took the bronze mirror and placed it squarely in front of her eyes.The face inside is a little blurry, but it can be vaguely seen that the hair accessories and clothes are exactly what she looked like when she was young.Taking a deep breath, Qixin looked up at Hong Jing again, "Boss Hong, what day is it today?" Hong Jing thought she was sleepy, and said with a smile, "August 23, the day of Qiushou Your Highness forgot? Your Majesty is still waiting for your four consecutive crowns!"
Hong Jing's voice exploded in Qixin's ears, making her dizzy.August 23, Qiushou, she participated for the fourth time, at the age of 15, met, that person... Her body trembled uncontrollably, she put the bronze mirror on the bed, put on her shoes, and ran staggeringly the door.
Pushing the door open, there were two rows of maids standing neatly outside the door, waiting to help her wash and change her clothes. When she saw her come out, she knelt down on the ground with a clatter, "My maidservant greets His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess." She was stunned. On the ground, the eye sockets were sore and swollen, Hong Jing followed up from behind, and asked worriedly, "What's the matter, Your Highness? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm fine." Qi Xin stretched out her hands and rubbed her eyes, and laughed with tears in her eyes, "I'm just so happy." She waved her hand to calm down, and said to the maids kneeling at the door, " Come in." The maids thanked her, Qi Xin stepped aside and watched them file in, and then said to Hong Jing, "I'll go find my father after I've packed up, Manager Hong will go back first."
Hong Jing resigned, and Qi Xin let the maids take care of her washing, changing clothes, combing her hair, and when everything was tidied up, she couldn't wait to go to Qitian'en Palace.Qi Tianen was waiting for her, the father and daughter had breakfast together, it was time to go to the paddock.Qi Xin was still dreaming, until she got to the paddock and saw those unfamiliar yet familiar scenes, she finally regained her composure.
"What's wrong with Xin'er? It doesn't look right." Qi Tianen tied the quiver to Qi Xin's horse with his own hands, and then asked Hong Jing to bring her his own bow.Qixin stretched out his hand to touch the horse's head, smiled and shook his head, "Thank you, father, for your concern. My daughter was a little excited last night thinking about today's autumn hunting, so she didn't have a good rest."
Only then did Qi Tianen feel relieved, pointed several people to show her, and said, "Those are all your rivals, but in my heart, my daughter is definitely better than them. You have won the championship for three consecutive years, This year, I can't let my father down."
Qixin only smiled slightly, took the bow from Hong Jing, and got on the horse, "Father is here to wait for the daughter to return with a full load." There was a sound of gongs and drums, Qixin squeezed the reins tightly, and took a deep breath .She rode her horse and ran out, regardless of the people and scenery along the way, stubbornly ran towards where she should go.
The horseshoe trampled the wild flowers, and her horse ran fast, and soon reached the depths of the dense forest.She tried her best to recall the road she had traveled, and she no longer had the time to think about whether it was a dream, or whether she had lived a new life.She only knows that the road is ahead, and that person may also be ahead. Whether it is the person she is looking for or not, even if she has to walk the same track again, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will hold on to it tightly.
Maybe it was a natural perception of danger, or maybe it was a disguised feeling of being close to home, Qi Xin clenched the whip and rein tightly, beating a drum involuntarily in his heart. What happened at the age of 15 was repeated after all. A big black bear that was a head taller than her came out of the dense forest. It exuded a disgusting smell and opened its mouth wide. Things keep flowing down.
The horse was frightened and threw Qi Xin to the ground, she closed her eyes gently.If she can show up, then she will be fine, if she doesn't show up, Qi Xin thinks, all this is just a dream.In fact, this was not a dream. The wound on her leg was aching, and there was a faint sound of breaking wind in her ears.She quickly opened her eyes, and that very familiar figure from the back, which she had never forgotten in more than ten years, suddenly jumped into her sight.
The long sword pierced the black bear's eyes, and the beast let out a deafening roar. The woman in white and plain robes embraced her briskly, tapped her toes, and jumped out of the forest in a few steps.Qi Xin looked up at her, that familiar face finally appeared in front of her eyes.
His vision blurred, Qi Xin subconsciously reached out to touch her face, but the woman had already put her under the tree, and walked back into the woods.Qi Xin's hands froze in mid-air, and the sharp sound of sword dancing could be heard in his ears, as well as the even more stern cry of the big black bear.Soon, all the voices disappeared, and Qixin breathed carefully, watching the man slowly reappear in front of her eyes, covered in blood.
"Don't just explore unknown places without enough preparation, it's really stupid." The man dropped the sword in his hand, with the same tone and tone as many years ago, she half-kneeled beside Qixin, and tore off her clothes. Horn bandaged the wound on her leg.Qixin looked at the bloodstain on her face, and finally touched it with trembling hands.The woman's hands froze, but she didn't stop. She carefully bandaged her wound.
She stood up, bent down and hugged Qi Xin, Qi Xin raised her head and looked at her, her jaw line was still cold, and the brows and eyes were still dull, but Qi Xin really felt that it was extraordinarily warm.She nuzzled into her arms, and the woman carried her out of the dangerous area, and said her lines with a smile like a long, long time ago, "That stupid bear is dead, you can have someone carry it out , you will win."
She put Qi Xin down, rubbed her head, and turned to leave.A long time ago, this was the first meeting fate gave them, at that time Qixin let her go in a daze, and now she is still in a daze, but desperately called out her name, "Ji Wuxia! "The man stopped in his tracks, turned his head, his expression was a bit startled, "You know me?"
Qixin's tears fell all of a sudden, finally, finally... She buried her face in her knees and cried in a low voice. It really was her, and it was always her.
Ji Wuxia walked over, squatted beside her, reached out and tugged at her sleeve, "Hey, don't cry." Qixin looked at her with bright red eyes, still couldn't help sobbing.Ji Wuxia hugged her knees, she was not wearing Taoist robes at this time, she was wearing blood-stained plain white clothes, and looked at her with a smile, "How do you know me?"
Qi Xin wiped her tears with the back of her hand, then suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged her neck tightly.She seems to be only fourteen or fifteen years old now, and Ji Wuxia is older than her, as if coaxing a child, he patted her on the back lightly, "What's the matter? Are you scared by that stupid bear? Oh, don't be afraid, I It's already killed, it won't hurt you."
Qixin was in her arms, making a dull voice, trembling slightly, "Wuxia, you don't want it, no
Ling Dongyan let go of his sleeves, anxiously walking around in the imperial study.Three years have passed, and this young man is already fourteen or fifteen years old. His brows and eyes have grown a little, and he looks handsome except for his childishness.He frowned, clenched a fist with one hand and smashed the palm of the other hand a few times, and stomped his foot, "Why didn't she tell me in advance? Lord Qi, where did Miss Huang go? I'm going to find her!"
Qi Xiu said, "Before he left, the emperor said that he wants the prince not to have a child's heart, and to govern the country well." Ling Dongyan stared at him dissatisfied, "I don't listen to this, tell me where she went." Qi Xiu shook his face firmly Shaking his head, he said in a cold voice, "The emperor won't let the minister tell the prince, and the minister should obey the order." Ling Dongyan's forehead was bulging, but he also knew his temperament of refraining from oil and salt. He sat back behind the table and gritted his teeth. Sulk with yourself.
As soon as Gu Zhang stepped into the imperial study room, he felt the strange atmosphere. Qi Xiu stood still like a wooden man, and Ling Dongyan was silent behind the table.He walked over, looked at the two of them, and asked with a smile, "What's the matter?" Ling Dongyan looked up at him, and said sullenly, "Sister Huang is gone." Gu Zhang raised his eyebrows, but he just murmured One sound.
Gu Zhang is already 19 years old this year, and he is no longer the child who followed Ling Muqing and pestered her to play with him.He looks talented, his eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Gu Heng, but his temperament is not as awe-inspiring, he is gentle and elegant like an ordinary scholar.When Ling Dongyan was first crowned prince, Gu Zhang was his accompanying student. Later, Gu Zhang took part in the imperial examination and won the first place at a young age. Ling Muqing was often brought by his side to cultivate him, so he and Ling Dongyan had a good relationship.
What Ling Muqing taught Gu Zhang most often was to be loyal to the emperor and love the country. He also listened carefully and memorized those four words.Ling Muqing had more or less revealed his intention to abdicate, but Gu Zhang was an exquisite mind, so how could he not see it.Therefore, he was not too surprised to hear such a sudden news, and he was naturally reluctant, but he always believed that Ling Muqing's decision was right.
After all, Ling Dongyan was still young, and he was spoiled by Mo Liangyi on weekdays, throwing temper tantrums like a child.Gu Zhang leaned over to reason with him, Ling Dongyan ignored him, he turned to look at Qi Xiu, Qi Xiu curled his lips vaguely, expressing that he had no choice.After all, children still have to rely on coaxing. Gu Zhang has been coaxing him for several years, and he waved to Qi Xiu that he could handle it, so Qi Xiu resigned.
Lin Chen was waiting for Qi Xiu outside the door, and when he saw him coming out, he rushed up to meet him, "How is it?" Qi Xiu continued walking, only glanced at him, and asked, "How about what?" Lin Chen said, "Prince, are you arguing to see the emperor? I just saw Gu Zhang go in. If you leave him alone, can you take care of the prince?"
Qi Xiu sneered, and said casually, "You have a big heart." Lin Chen followed him step by step, shrugging his shoulders noncommittally.A passing patrol team saluted the two of them, Qi Xiu only nodded coldly, but Lin Chen was very cordial.Qi Xiu squinted at him, "What are you always following me for? Do you have nothing to do?"
Lin Chen was stunned for a moment, and asked him suspiciously, "No, aren't we going to find the emperor?" Qi Xiu squinted his eyes and looked at him like an idiot, "Who told you that we are going to find the emperor?" Lin Chen Some didn't understand the situation, and asked bluntly, "Then we two, don't we need to protect the emperor? No, Qi Xiu, the emperor and empress have left, don't we need to follow?"
"Are you sick?" Qi Xiu finally couldn't help complaining, "Isn't the emperor's abdication just to be a couple of ordinary couples with the empress, how could he take us with him?" Lin Chen jumped up all of a sudden. He got up, stretched his neck and yelled, "Did the emperor leave just like that? I am her savior, I must always protect her safety! She clearly said that she wanted us to stay and deal with the aftermath..."
Lin Chen also understood that Ling Muqing knew that he was difficult to deal with, so he directly tricked him and left him in the capital and ran away with Mo Liangyi.Lin Chen slapped his thigh, lowered his head in frustration, and muttered, "The emperor will find me annoying, and I'm not here to protect her."
Qi Xiu rolled his eyes silently, kicked his toes, and reluctantly comforted him, "It's the same for protecting the prince, and the emperor has Xu Niwei by his side, which is much more useful than you." Lin Chen looked at him sadly, Qi Xiu Xiu smiled helplessly, "Okay, can a big man stop being so hypocritical?" Lin Chen glared at him, "What do you know!"
"I don't understand, don't talk to me." Qi Xiu finally got impatient, turned around and continued walking, Lin Chen stared fiercely at the back of his head, wishing to stare at a hole.After staring at Qi Xiu for a long while and still not responding, Lin Chen was discouraged and reluctantly followed.
The barren hill in Qingyang County was already lush with greenery. There were trees planted by Ji Wuxia for more than [-] years growing on it. There were two graves next to the forest halfway up the mountain. One looked like it had been around for a long time, and the other The soil has just been added, and it still looks like a new grave.
"Anyway, it's the grave of the national teacher and her master, so you can't add more soil." Ling Muqing dug a hole with a wooden stick, put paper money in it, and complained casually.Sitting next to her was Qi Xin, still dressed in plain clothes and pale, like a female ghost who haunts the day.Qi Xin sat on the ground without getting dirty, holding a handkerchief, and was wiping Ji Wuxia's tombstone.
Qixin turned her head to look at Ling Muqing, and gently pulled the corner of her mouth, "I added this soil myself, so I didn't spend so much effort." She wiped the tombstone clean, stared at it for a while, and smiled.Ling Muqing didn't bother to look at her stupid look, and waved to the woman not far away, "Liang Yi, bring the fire pocket."
Holding a jug of wine in one hand and a fire bag in the other, Mo Liang walked slowly to Ling Muqing's side.Ling Muqing took the fire pocket and lit the paper money, Qixin looked at her, and confessed, "I accidentally set this forest on fire last time, you have to be careful."
"I know, I know." Ling Muqing murmured with some disgust, "It's really unlucky, I wanted to go to Qingzhou, but I passed by Qingyang to see the national teacher, but I still met you. I said that you, as the emperor of Qiguo, have nothing to do. I run in Lingguo without anyone by my side, if something happens, whose fault is it?
Qixin took the jug from Mo Liangyi, took two sips from the spout, poured the rest in front of Ji Wuxia's grave, and replied, "It's mine." Ling Muqing shook his head helplessly, Mo Liang squatted on his knees next to Ling Muqing, turned his head to look at Qi Xin, and asked, "I heard, what kind of male pet did you get recently to neglect your imperial husband?"
"I didn't treat him well, so what's the point of being indifferent?" Qi Xin finished pouring the wine, hugged the jug in his arms, and stared at Ji Wuxia's grave in a daze.Mo Liang smiled, "You know what I want to ask." Ling Muqing leaned against the tree and sat down, throwing paper money into the burning earth pit every now and then, just like Mo Liangyi Looking at Qixin.
Qixin tilted her head and thought for a while, then said softly, "I had a dream last month, and I dreamed that Wuxia came back to life. After I woke up, I couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, so I sent the imperial list to find her. Haha , When I really woke up, I ordered people to withdraw the imperial list, but there was an official from somewhere who sent someone to me."
"It looks pretty similar," Qi Xin squinted her eyes and smiled, "I mean it looks like the portrait. You also know that I can't draw, and the drawing is not flawless, so that person only has some similarities between his eyebrows and eyes." I don’t have those god-stick temperaments, that mouth that can irritate people when I speak, none of them. But it’s very good, thanks to my courtiers who are not stupid, they didn’t find me a Taoist priest directly. "
Qi Xin acted like she was joking, but her eyes were filled with sadness. She felt that she was quite hypocritical, she said that she didn't like it, but she still left people behind.As long as you can see that face day and night, even if it doesn't look like much, a little shadow is enough.
Ling Muqing pouted, stretched out his feet and kicked the dirt into the pit, burying the fire.She pulled Mo Liang up together, helped her pat the dirt on her body, took her hand, and raised her chin at Qixin, "I don't want to care about your nonsense. Let's go first, and see you later. "
Qi Xin raised his head to look at them, his eyes flickered, suddenly blurred, "That's great." Mo Liang nodded silently as soon as he knew what she was referring to, Qi Xin waved to them, "Let's go, Let's go, let me accompany her well." Ling Muqing took a deep look at her, took Mo Liangyi's hand and turned around.
"Muqing." Qi Xin called Ling Muqing quite intimately, and Ling Muqing turned to look at her, "What's the matter?" Qi Xin smiled, "I heard that your paintings are pretty good, please draw one for me later I'll send someone to Qingzhou to pick it up when it's time." Ling Muqing looked at her for a while, then nodded slightly, "Okay, let's talk to Dr. Mo, it's easy to find."
Qi Xin didn't thank her either, and waved her hand again, watching Ling Muqing and Mo Liangyi go further and further away, and finally disappeared.She picked up the jug in her arms and slammed it on Ji Wuxia's tombstone. The tombstone was so hard that the jug shattered.Qi Xin blinked, lowered her head and laughed silently, then slowly, she cried.
The carriage was standing at the foot of the mountain, Ling Muqing sent a Xu Niwei to watch, seeing them descending the mountain, Xu Niwei consciously disappeared.Ling Muqing hugged Mo Liangyi in his arms, and walked all the way with light work, and soon reached the foot of the mountain.Mo Liang patted her on the shoulder, Ling Muqing put her down obediently, Mo Liang stood still, and looked back up the mountain.
"Let's go." Ling Muqing smiled and took Mo Liangyi's hand and shook it. June was full of beauty, and there were unknown little flowers blooming on both roadsides. This situation, this situation, this person, and this life are all It should be the best.
With Ling Muqing's support, Mo Liangyi got into the carriage, and Ling Muqing sat in front of the carriage with a whip in his hand.Mo Liang lifted the car curtain and rubbed against Ling Muqing, Ling Muqing looked at her with a smile, "What's wrong?" Mo Liang also smiled, put his hands around her neck, and whispered in her ear, "Suddenly I remembered the past."
Once on the way to Lintong Pass, the two of them shared a carriage like this. The ruts took away the years, and the driver changed, but they could not escape their fate.Ling Muqing tilted his head slightly, and kissed Mo Liangyi's temples, "The national teacher is right, cherish the person in front of you. Liang Yi, Ling Muqing will always have you by his side in this life, what can I ask for?"
Mo Liang simply sat next to her, Ling Muqing pushed her in, she curled her lips, "Don't always take care of me like this, I'm not too weak." Ling Muqing raised his horsewhip, took time to glance at her with a smile With a glance, he said, "You are the wife I am marrying. I don't care if you are weak or not. I just want to take care of you like this."
Mo Liang puffed up his cheeks, turned his head to look at Ling Muqing who was concentrating on driving the car, and slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
Smile like a flower, all the way to the north.
The author has something to say: HAPPYEND!
It is expected that there will be two extra chapters, one chapter of Ji Wuxia X Qixin, and one chapter of Zhong Qin (after all, only two people responded to me when asking for opinions...) will be released this week~
Thanks for being with me all the way (bow!
☆、Extra: Qixin
Qixin didn't know if Ji Wuxia was the one who saved her, and she didn't want to know anymore.She always remembers the woman who snatched her away from Lord Yan when she was 15 years old, and she will never forget the scene when she met Ji Wuxia when she was 21 years old.The six years seem to overlap, the same eyebrows, the same smile, and the reunion in exchange is her whole life.
In these days, Qi Xin often wears white clothes and sits in the Hall of Autumn Coolness in a daze.She doesn't care about political affairs, doesn't care about the people, but she doesn't enjoy herself or be stupid.She is really not a competent emperor. She has been married to the emperor's husband for several years and has no children. The courtiers have made a lot of troubles, and she is annoyed.
Later, inspired by Ling Muqing, he chose a child who had a good eye for him from the clan, and made him the Crown Prince, who he always brought with him.It's just that Ling Muqing raised the crown prince a bit, so he and Mo Liangyi could live happily together, but what about her?Even if she trains the little prince to be a qualified heir in the future, who can she live a comfortable life with?
The prince selected by Qixin was only over six years old. She named him Yu Sheng and asked the child to call her mother.Since Ji Wuxia's death, Qi Xin's temperament has changed drastically, and those violent factors hidden in his bones and blood have also been released, and from time to time he likes to lose his temper with yin and yang.It's just that she treats the little prince very well and does everything by herself. It's rare for a child who remembers things to really treat her as his biological mother.
It's just that she never let the little prince call her imperial husband "Daddy", the little prince only listened to her, and obediently obediently, every time he called her imperial husband very politely.Qixin taught the little prince to read poems, she read a sentence, and the little prince followed a sentence, the childish voice made her roll her eyes every time.
Once, the little prince asked her with blinking eyes, "Mother, what do you mean when you look back at Hua Cong lazily, half destined to practice Taoism and half destined to be king?" Qixin was stunned for a moment, smiled and rubbed his head , "It's not interesting, you will understand when you grow up." The little prince nodded, obediently flipping through the poems below.
Take a look at the flowering lazy, half-edge monastic half-edge.
What's the meaning?Qixin, I don't understand either.She lowered her eyebrows and looked at Qi Yusheng who was holding a book in his hand, carefully debating every word, and her vision gradually blurred.After her old friend left, she also devoted herself to Taoism, trying to get closer to her, but what's the use?
Sometimes Qixin would tell stories to the little prince, saying that her mother knew a Taoist priest in the past, but he was so powerful that he could calculate everything.Qi Yu looked at her anxiously, "Mother, where is that Taoist priest? I also want her to do the math for me." Qi Xin pursed her lips and smiled bitterly, "She is already dead. .”
died?The little prince didn't understand what it meant, Qixin explained to him, "When you die, you just go to a far away place and never come back again." Qi Yusheng nodded thoughtfully, then sighed pretentiously. He took a deep breath, "It's a pity, I still want her to figure it out for me, when can mother take me out to play!"
The child didn't know how to hide his thoughts, which made Qixin laugh, and not long after, Qixin left for Lingguo to pay homage to Ji Wuxia, and took the little prince along with him.The little prince was very excited when he went up the mountain, but after a while he became tired and couldn't walk anymore.Qixin hugged him with his left hand and a bamboo basket with his right, and walked up the hillside step by step.
Putting Qi Yusheng down and telling him not to run around, Qi Xin started to tidy up.In order not to stain her body with dirt, she was wearing a black dress and bent down to pull the weeds from Ji Wuxia's grave.Qi Yusheng looked at her, holding on to the bamboo basket at his feet, wondering why the expression of his always gentle and amiable mother became so serious.
"Yu Sheng, bring the white cloth in the basket." Qi Xin pulled out the grass, sat in front of the tombstone and told the little prince.Qi Yusheng quickly opened the basket, took out the white cloth towel, quickly moved his short legs to Qi Xin's side, and handed the white cloth to her.Qi Xin praised him a few words, folded the cloth towel, and began to wipe the dust on the tombstone.
Qi Yusheng squatted beside her, holding his small face and looking at her curiously, "Mother, what are you doing?" Qi Xin looked at him, spread the cloth towel in his hand and tore it into two parts, and handed the smaller half to her. He gave it to Qi Yusheng, "Come on, help mother wipe it together." Qi Yusheng took the cloth towel, took two steps forward, squeezed the cloth into a ball and wiped vigorously.
After rubbing the tombstone up and down, Qixin took Qi Yusheng's hand to signal that he could stop, and said slowly, "Inside, the most important person of mother is buried." Qi Yusheng carried Qi Xin nodded, and Qi Yusheng pouted, "But why did you bury it?"
The little prince was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and he was well protected. He was simpler than ordinary children, and he couldn't understand some things at all.Qixin told him, "Because she won't come back, she just died, and no one can see her again, so I buried her." The little prince looked terrified, "Mother, I won't leave You, I will let you see me for the rest of my life, don't bury me!"
"Stupid child," Qi Xin smiled, "When will you grow up?" Qi Yusheng smiled foolishly, "I don't want to grow up, Mr. Wang said that when I grow up, I have to learn how to govern the country, so I can't be with my mother." We played together." Qixin touched his forehead, Qi Yusheng pouted and kissed her face, and said seriously, "But I still have to grow up, mother protects me now, when I grow up When I grow up, I will also protect my mother and love my mother very much."
Qi Xin said something really good, Qi Yusheng walked around in a circle, walked over and hugged the tombstone, "Although this person is not coming back, but she is so important to mother, mother must be very reluctant to part with her, right? Just like if mother doesn't come back, Yu Sheng will be very sad and reluctant." Qi Xin just smiled and said nothing, Qi Yu Sheng poked the tombstone with his chubby hand, and said with a smile, "Then I will replace her , stay with mother forever!"
Children are ignorant, but they know how to compare their hearts with their hearts. Qi Xin held him in his arms and said yes softly.After that, Qixin took Qi Yusheng to burn paper money and offer wine to Ji Wuxia. The children were quite curious about these and watched carefully.Qixin suddenly looked back at him, and said with a smile, "Yu Sheng, someday my mother will go too, remember to bury my mother here too."
Qi Yusheng looked puzzled, "Where are you going, mother?" Qi Xin put away his things, held an empty basket in his left hand, and Qi Yusheng's little hand in his right, looked at the grave with sad eyes, and sighed softly. "Go to a place that can make people happy." Qi Yusheng pouted, not knowing what was going on in his little head.
When Qi Yusheng was eight years old, Qi Xin stopped taking him often.He is always the crown prince chosen by her, so he should fulfill the duties of the crown prince. She found many teachers for him and let him learn many things.Qi Yusheng didn't make trouble, and obediently followed what she said, even if it was to learn those obscure things he didn't like.
When Qi Yusheng was ten years old, the imperial concubine died of illness, Qi Xin had always been dressed in black and plain robes, and this time he was asked to wear mourning clothes.In fact, the death of the emperor's husband is a major event, and the whole country should mourn, but Qi Xin's attitude is very cold.She has always been a very selfish person, she doesn't care whether she deserves it or not, or who is more pitiful.As long as I think of marrying that person on the day Ji Wuxia died, I wish there wouldn't be such a person in the world.And now, it's finally clean.
A few years later, there were very few people in the palace. The inexplicable male favorite was dismissed by Qi Xin long before Qi Yusheng entered the palace. Later, the imperial husband died again. The huge palace does not count those palace people. The guards were actually only Qi Xin and Qi Yusheng.A courtier bit the bullet and responded to such a question with Qixin. Qixin was in a good temper at the time, and he didn't get angry or make a fuss, so he took the booklet and put it on the corner of the table, and no one dared to mention it later.
When Qi Yusheng was 15 years old, Qi Xin had already passed the age, his face was not old, but his whole body was full of vicissitudes.Qixin asked Qi Yusheng, "I really can't do what the emperor is doing. What do you think will be called me in history in the future? Don't you think you are a fool?" The crown prince shook his head, took her hand and said, "In the heart of my son, You have always been a good emperor, and you will be admired by all people in the history books."
Qi Xin smiled and shook his head, "Whatever should be done, I really can't stand up to the admiration of all people. It's just Yu Sheng, you have to promise me, don't become a person like me." Qi Yusheng rolled his eyes, lowered his head and looked down He replied dully, "I know." In fact, in his heart, Qixin is the best person, and the person most worthy of his study.
Qi Yusheng knows that Qi Xin has three most precious things, and even he cannot touch them casually.One is the blood jade finger wrench that she wears on her hand and never leaves her body. She said it was a birthday gift from the late emperor, and she also said it was the only thought left by her old friend. Qi Yusheng waited a long time before getting it. I understand what she means.
The second is a kit, Qi Xin put it next to his pillow and looked at it every night to sleep.Qi Yusheng felt very strange, he never figured out what was in there, he only knew that Qi Xin was not allowed to be touched by anyone.A new lady-in-waiting had tidied up her bed and put it aside without putting it back. When she found out about it, she chopped off both of his hands without explanation.
It was the first time in Qi Yusheng's life that he saw Qi Xin's ruthlessness, so even though he was curious, he didn't dare to touch it, and he didn't even dare to ask.There is also a painting that hangs in the Imperial Study Room, and it is very well maintained.In the painting a woman in a Taoist robe, with a hippie smile on her face, does not have the temperament of a cultivator at all. Qi Yusheng thought that some ancient paintings handed down from generation to generation deserved Qi Xin's careful treatment. Only later did I hear that it was only painted by Qi Xin.
Qi Xin was only 37 years old when she died, and her hair was already gray. The imperial doctor said that she had been suffering from depression over the years, and there was no cure for it.Before she died, Qi Yusheng, who was two or three years away from being crowned, almost lost his breath from crying, Qi Xin touched his face with exhaustion, but actually smiled.She said, "For the rest of my life, my mother can finally be free."
Qi Yusheng burst into tears. He yelled, "No, I don't want you to die. Mother, I want your protection for the rest of my life. What will I do if you die?" Qi Xin said, "You have grown up. I can't cry anymore." Qi Yusheng didn't listen to her, and kept crying like a child.
"Yu Sheng," Qi Xin took his hand, "Listen to what mother has to say." Qi Yu Sheng bit his lip, looked at her with red eyes, Qi Xin sighed, and explained carefully, "The funeral should not be too big. Do, where I should be buried, I told you a long time ago. You can cremate me, and just bury the ashes. My bedside kit, you remember, must be buried with me. This finger-wrench is left to You, let it stay with you for me."
She slowly took off the finger spanner that she had worn for more than ten years, and put it on Qi Yusheng's thumb. Qi Yusheng knelt beside her bed, weeping silently, not daring to cry again.Qixin rubbed his head, "Good boy, you are more suitable to be an emperor than your mother. Remember, it is enough for the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Don't go to war, don't fight."
Qi Yusheng nodded and kept nodding, he agreed to whatever she said.Qi Xin felt relieved, moved her gaze to the ceiling, and said softly, "Didn't you always want to know who the person in that painting is? Let me tell you now, that is me, the only person I have ever loved in this life. That painting does not need Burial, you burn it, tear it up, it doesn’t matter.”
Qi Xin reached out and groped around the bed, Qi Yusheng found the kit for her and put it in her palm.Qi Xin held the kit in her heart, and muttered to herself, "I'm so many years late, and I don't know she's still waiting for me." She raised her eyelids and glanced at Qi Yusheng, and finally, slowly closed Eyes, also stopped breathing.
Qi Yusheng didn't burst into tears at this moment, but respectfully kowtowed his head three times, and shouted with a trembling voice, "I send my mother off!" Tears fell on the ground, and Qi Yusheng wiped them Scratching his face, he slowly stood up.There was a lot of crying inside and outside the palace, and some palace people shouted "The emperor is dead" to inform the ministers, Qi Yusheng suddenly felt that he was separated from the world.
The person who treated him best in this world died, but she should be happy, Qi Yusheng suddenly didn't know whether he should cry or laugh.
Mother, I hope you can really find her.
The author has something to say: The extras are a bit late =_=
☆、Extra: Rebirth
Qi Xin felt that she had a dream, a long, long dream.She seemed to be dreaming of her whole life, her father, her country, and Ji Wuxia.The dream was so absurd and so real that when she woke up, she didn't know where she was.
She sat on the bed, stared blankly at the familiar room, and bit her lips in disbelief.She couldn't tell whether it was a dream just now or it was a dream now.She remembered that she was obviously dead, and Qi Yusheng's cry still lingered in her mind. How could everything be messed up when she opened her eyes?She reached out and touched the corner of her mouth, where there were teeth marks from her bite, which were a little itchy.
The door opened with a creak, Qi Xin turned his head to look, and Hong Jing, the eunuch close to Qi Tianen, came in.She sat quietly, and Hong Jing stood still a few steps away from her bed, bowing his body with a smile, "Your Highness is awake?" He called her His Highness, not His Majesty, nor His Majesty.Qi Xin lowered her head to look at her hands, her skin was delicate and tender, although there were some calluses, but it was still clearly a pair of girls' hands.
"Director Hong." Qixin spoke slowly, hearing the long-lost boyish voice in his ears.Hong Jing responded to her, "What is your Highness' order?" Qi Xin trembled a little, and stretched out a hand to him, "Bring me the mirror." Hong Jing was confused, but still obeyed her words , went to the dressing table and got her a mirror.
Qi Xin took the bronze mirror and placed it squarely in front of her eyes.The face inside is a little blurry, but it can be vaguely seen that the hair accessories and clothes are exactly what she looked like when she was young.Taking a deep breath, Qixin looked up at Hong Jing again, "Boss Hong, what day is it today?" Hong Jing thought she was sleepy, and said with a smile, "August 23, the day of Qiushou Your Highness forgot? Your Majesty is still waiting for your four consecutive crowns!"
Hong Jing's voice exploded in Qixin's ears, making her dizzy.August 23, Qiushou, she participated for the fourth time, at the age of 15, met, that person... Her body trembled uncontrollably, she put the bronze mirror on the bed, put on her shoes, and ran staggeringly the door.
Pushing the door open, there were two rows of maids standing neatly outside the door, waiting to help her wash and change her clothes. When she saw her come out, she knelt down on the ground with a clatter, "My maidservant greets His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess." She was stunned. On the ground, the eye sockets were sore and swollen, Hong Jing followed up from behind, and asked worriedly, "What's the matter, Your Highness? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm fine." Qi Xin stretched out her hands and rubbed her eyes, and laughed with tears in her eyes, "I'm just so happy." She waved her hand to calm down, and said to the maids kneeling at the door, " Come in." The maids thanked her, Qi Xin stepped aside and watched them file in, and then said to Hong Jing, "I'll go find my father after I've packed up, Manager Hong will go back first."
Hong Jing resigned, and Qi Xin let the maids take care of her washing, changing clothes, combing her hair, and when everything was tidied up, she couldn't wait to go to Qitian'en Palace.Qi Tianen was waiting for her, the father and daughter had breakfast together, it was time to go to the paddock.Qi Xin was still dreaming, until she got to the paddock and saw those unfamiliar yet familiar scenes, she finally regained her composure.
"What's wrong with Xin'er? It doesn't look right." Qi Tianen tied the quiver to Qi Xin's horse with his own hands, and then asked Hong Jing to bring her his own bow.Qixin stretched out his hand to touch the horse's head, smiled and shook his head, "Thank you, father, for your concern. My daughter was a little excited last night thinking about today's autumn hunting, so she didn't have a good rest."
Only then did Qi Tianen feel relieved, pointed several people to show her, and said, "Those are all your rivals, but in my heart, my daughter is definitely better than them. You have won the championship for three consecutive years, This year, I can't let my father down."
Qixin only smiled slightly, took the bow from Hong Jing, and got on the horse, "Father is here to wait for the daughter to return with a full load." There was a sound of gongs and drums, Qixin squeezed the reins tightly, and took a deep breath .She rode her horse and ran out, regardless of the people and scenery along the way, stubbornly ran towards where she should go.
The horseshoe trampled the wild flowers, and her horse ran fast, and soon reached the depths of the dense forest.She tried her best to recall the road she had traveled, and she no longer had the time to think about whether it was a dream, or whether she had lived a new life.She only knows that the road is ahead, and that person may also be ahead. Whether it is the person she is looking for or not, even if she has to walk the same track again, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she will hold on to it tightly.
Maybe it was a natural perception of danger, or maybe it was a disguised feeling of being close to home, Qi Xin clenched the whip and rein tightly, beating a drum involuntarily in his heart. What happened at the age of 15 was repeated after all. A big black bear that was a head taller than her came out of the dense forest. It exuded a disgusting smell and opened its mouth wide. Things keep flowing down.
The horse was frightened and threw Qi Xin to the ground, she closed her eyes gently.If she can show up, then she will be fine, if she doesn't show up, Qi Xin thinks, all this is just a dream.In fact, this was not a dream. The wound on her leg was aching, and there was a faint sound of breaking wind in her ears.She quickly opened her eyes, and that very familiar figure from the back, which she had never forgotten in more than ten years, suddenly jumped into her sight.
The long sword pierced the black bear's eyes, and the beast let out a deafening roar. The woman in white and plain robes embraced her briskly, tapped her toes, and jumped out of the forest in a few steps.Qi Xin looked up at her, that familiar face finally appeared in front of her eyes.
His vision blurred, Qi Xin subconsciously reached out to touch her face, but the woman had already put her under the tree, and walked back into the woods.Qi Xin's hands froze in mid-air, and the sharp sound of sword dancing could be heard in his ears, as well as the even more stern cry of the big black bear.Soon, all the voices disappeared, and Qixin breathed carefully, watching the man slowly reappear in front of her eyes, covered in blood.
"Don't just explore unknown places without enough preparation, it's really stupid." The man dropped the sword in his hand, with the same tone and tone as many years ago, she half-kneeled beside Qixin, and tore off her clothes. Horn bandaged the wound on her leg.Qixin looked at the bloodstain on her face, and finally touched it with trembling hands.The woman's hands froze, but she didn't stop. She carefully bandaged her wound.
She stood up, bent down and hugged Qi Xin, Qi Xin raised her head and looked at her, her jaw line was still cold, and the brows and eyes were still dull, but Qi Xin really felt that it was extraordinarily warm.She nuzzled into her arms, and the woman carried her out of the dangerous area, and said her lines with a smile like a long, long time ago, "That stupid bear is dead, you can have someone carry it out , you will win."
She put Qi Xin down, rubbed her head, and turned to leave.A long time ago, this was the first meeting fate gave them, at that time Qixin let her go in a daze, and now she is still in a daze, but desperately called out her name, "Ji Wuxia! "The man stopped in his tracks, turned his head, his expression was a bit startled, "You know me?"
Qixin's tears fell all of a sudden, finally, finally... She buried her face in her knees and cried in a low voice. It really was her, and it was always her.
Ji Wuxia walked over, squatted beside her, reached out and tugged at her sleeve, "Hey, don't cry." Qixin looked at her with bright red eyes, still couldn't help sobbing.Ji Wuxia hugged her knees, she was not wearing Taoist robes at this time, she was wearing blood-stained plain white clothes, and looked at her with a smile, "How do you know me?"
Qi Xin wiped her tears with the back of her hand, then suddenly stretched out her arms and hugged her neck tightly.She seems to be only fourteen or fifteen years old now, and Ji Wuxia is older than her, as if coaxing a child, he patted her on the back lightly, "What's the matter? Are you scared by that stupid bear? Oh, don't be afraid, I It's already killed, it won't hurt you."
Qixin was in her arms, making a dull voice, trembling slightly, "Wuxia, you don't want it, no
