Dianxia Qingcheng

Kneeling for too long, coupled with such a big blow, Qi Changyi fainted limply in the rain.

When he woke up again, he was already lying on the warm bed in his bedroom, and Jiang Yubai was bandaging the wound on his palm beside the bed.

"Your Highness is awake? But what else is uncomfortable?"

Jiang Yubai asked with concern.

Qi Changyi stared blankly at the bed curtain above his head, and shook his head.

Li Yu sent Jiang Yubai out of the bedroom, and when he returned, he saw Qi Changyi still in the posture of just waking up, motionless as if his soul had been taken out of him.

"Your Highness, would you like to eat something, so that you don't starve yourself to death."

Qi Changyi remained silent.

Li Yu sent someone to bring white porridge over, filled a spoon with some, and fed it to Qi Changyi's mouth, but he still didn't move, like a soulless doll.

Pain, pain in the head, pain in the palms, pain in the knees, and the most important thing is heart pain, the pain is so painful that I can hardly breathe.

Qi Changyi curled up, clutching his heart, stuffed in the quilt, tears began to flow uncontrollably again, wet a large piece of quilt.

He thought that Brother Pei liked him too, even if only a little bit.

But now it seems that there is not even a little bit, otherwise how could he be willing to send him so far away to marry someone else.

The little man was wrapped in the quilt, curled up in a small ball, trembling.

When Zhao Litang came in, what he saw was the bulging hillock on the bed.

Li Yu hurriedly saluted, "Zhao..."

Zhao Litang "hush" and made a look, and everyone in the hall retreated.

He has been busy with military affairs recently, he hasn't seen Qi Changyi for a long time, he didn't expect such a big event to happen, the emperor ordered the prince to get married?

Zhao Litang immediately didn't care much, and after meeting the emperor, he came directly to Qi Changyi's bedroom.

The courtyard outside is filled with a dazzling array of rewards, which are very eye-catching.

He walked to the side of the bed and wanted to lift the quilt, but someone grabbed the quilt firmly from the inside, preventing it from being lifted.

Zhao Litang used some strength to open it, revealing the half-prone little man underneath, with half of his face buried in the mattress, tears still streaming down.

Quiet and well-behaved, it makes people feel distressed.

Zhao Litang's heart throbbed violently, and he wanted to hug the little man up and comfort him in his arms.

Just meeting the emperor, the emperor actually ordered him to be the leader of the escort and marriage team, the sacred order is hard to violate, no matter how reluctant he is, it is difficult to resist.

But before his hand touched the little man, he shrank back in fear.

Zhao Litang's hand froze in place, and finally let it go.

"Chang Yi, I'm Brother Tang, look at me, turn around and look at me."

The little figure on the bed didn't move.

"I know you are sad, but this is irreversible. I will protect you along the way and send you to the barbarians safely. If they treat you badly, I will definitely ask the emperor to bring you back again. Yes, okay?"

The little man still didn't move.

Zhao Litang was a little anxious, afraid that he would be overwhelmed.

"Chang Yi, hey, if you had listened to me earlier, left Pei Zheng, and followed me to the frontier, things wouldn't have come to this point."

When Pei Zheng was mentioned, the little man turned around slowly, and spoke a little weakly, "It's brother Pei, who wants to send me away..."

Zhao Litang's expression changed, "You know everything?"

Qi Changyi wrinkled his nose and nodded slightly.

"Who told you that?"

"Fourth brother."

"What do these two people think of you? The Fourth Prince won't say anything. He never regarded you as a younger brother. The only reason he is willing to give you a good face is whether you are enough of a threat to him."

Zhao Litang clenched his fists, "And Pei Zheng just treats you as a pet, who comes and goes as soon as he gets it. If it weren't for your face that resembles the fourth prince, how could he treat you like that?" Tangled."

Zhao Litang wanted to say these words a long time ago, but Qi Changyi was too fragile and innocent, let him know the dirty and sinister behind the heart, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear the cruelty of the truth.

Sure enough, Qi Changyi's eyes, which had been dull before, became focused again, but the overwhelming grief inside made people unable to bear to look directly at them.

"What, what do you mean, elder brother Pei treats me... because I look like fourth elder brother?" Qi Changyi's voice was trembling.

Zhao Litang nodded.

"He doesn't like me at all, so he only treats me well when he is in a good mood, because he doesn't care about me, so it doesn't matter what happens to me, as long as, as long as the fourth brother is intact, right?"

Zhao Litang reached out to wipe his tears for him, but Qi Changyi turned his body back, facing the wall, bit his fingers hard, and burst into tears.

Zhao Litang stared at his trembling back for a while, his eyes were deep, he didn't know whether he was right or wrong in telling him these things, and finally got up and left.

For two whole days, Qi Changyi didn't touch a drop of rice, only drank some water, and then she kept crying, and her eyes were swollen all day long.

He didn't speak, and sat in front of the desk. The manual full of Pei Zheng's name was open, and it was stained with tears.

The day for the family team to go out has arrived, and countless maids, eunuchs and nuns have poured into the prince's bedroom, which was unusually deserted in the past, busy going around.

The bright red robes were spread out on the bed, and there were many gold hairpins, jade pendants, rouge, gouache, and other things for women beside them. The nuns pulled the puppet-like prince over to sit in front of the bronze mirror, and began to give him dress up.

Li Yu was very surprised when he saw this, "Nurse, why is this a woman's dress? And those rouge, what's going on?"

The nanny looked around and didn't dare to say more, "Don't ask too many questions, father-in-law. We also follow orders, so we don't know too many."

Qi Changyi's face was very pale, and her lips that used to be bright red didn't have any color.

Thrush eyebrows, apply powder, apply rouge, stain the lips with blood-red juice, and the person in the bronze mirror suddenly becomes vivid.

She is a beautiful woman who overwhelms the country and the city.

Those nuns praised her a few times, they never expected that His Royal Highness was born so beautiful, three points brighter than all the women in the harem, but there was an indelible gloom between his brows and eyes.

"His Royal Highness, please be happy. You are going to get married and represent the face of our celestial dynasty. It's not okay to cry like this all the time. It's like going to a funeral."

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Mammy slapped the nonsense little girl, "It's not for you to talk, get out!"

The little maid covered her face and went out.

Mammy felt sorry for this little Highness, and none of the people who went to get married in the past came back.

"Your Highness, change your clothes."

Qi Changyi let several hands be at the mercy of him.

She was wearing a long red dress embroidered with golden silk phoenix, her long ink-colored hair hung down like a waterfall, and was tied into a beautiful bun, leaving a few strands of sideburns hanging down, and a few hairpins on her head. The nobile embellished with emeralds made everyone present hold their breath for a moment.

Like, so much like, like Concubine Ning, who once made a sensation in the world with her beauty.

The sedan chair was already waiting outside the door of the bedroom, and the nanny followed Qi Changyi out of the door of the main hall, and everyone in the courtyard stopped their movements, watching the charming beauty with picturesque eyebrows step out step by step The gate of the palace, out of the courtyard, out of the gate of the bedroom.

Qi Changyi stood at the door of the bedroom, took a last deep look at the place where he had lived for more than ten years, and couldn't help but feel his nose become sore again.

He is very familiar with every brick, every tile, every plant and every tree here, this farewell may never be seen again.

Can't cry, don't cry, he told himself, shed all the tears he wanted to shed in the first two days, and then he was not allowed to cry anymore.

Since you want to marry someone far away, then he has a husband. Anyway, no one here misses him, so let's leave.

That's fine, leave here and leave your heart here, so you won't get hurt again in the future.

"Your Highness, it's time to go." Li Yu called softly from the side. He had already decided to accompany His Highness to the barbarians. No matter how difficult the future was, he would accompany His Highness.

Qi Changyi bent down and got into the sedan chair before tears fell.

The sedan chair drove to the gate of the palace, where there were already countless people waiting.

In the mighty Celestial Dynasty, the team of marriage is mighty, and Zhenyuan General Zhao Litang, as the leader of the escort, led the imperial guards to open the way.

Behind them were Amul and other envoys, saying goodbye to the emperor standing on the pavilion watching them, and then rode their horses to follow.

Then there was the sedan chair that Qi Changyi was riding in, this time he didn't lift the curtain to look out, so he didn't know that the emperor, who was above ten thousand people, looked at his sedan chair going away with tears in his eyes.

There were several other sedan chairs following behind Qi Changyi's sedan chair, but I don't know who they were sitting on.

At the end of the line were some gifts from the Celestial Dynasty to the barbarians. There were twenty carts full of gifts, and they were escorted by special imperial guards.

After leaving the palace gate, the people on both sides of the street stood obediently on both sides of the road, and no one dared to look up. The heavily armed soldiers might go forward and dig out their dishonest eyeballs at any time.

The team soon arrived at the gate of the imperial capital, and they were slowing down to accept the review.

After going out, head all the way to the southwest, and you will be farther and farther away from the heavily guarded palace cage.

Qi Changyi sat alone in the empty sedan chair, tightly gripping the red robe on his body, now that there was no one around him, he didn't need to hold back deliberately.

He was about to leave the imperial capital soon, and he had agreed not to think about those things anymore, but a figure was always hovering in his mind like a ghost, and a deep voice kept ringing in his ears.

"Always think of me and remember me."

"Always trust me and never leave me."

But how could he do it?

Now he is leaving Pei Zheng, and he won't even be able to see him for the last time.

Qi Changyi felt his heart ache so badly again that his eyes were clouded with tears.

Did elder brother Pei always regard him as a substitute for the fourth elder brother? Then he hugged and kissed himself, was he thinking about the fourth elder brother?

However, now that he is married to a barbarian leader, he can't always think about Brother Pei.

The connection between them may be broken at this point.

One of the few lines of poetry he has learned is a pair of people in a lifetime.

So from now on, his heart and mind can only be with his husband whom he has never met.

Qi Changyi closed his eyes, letting the tears from the corners of his eyes slide down.

Suddenly, a cool hand covered his closed eyes, and the other hand deftly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

A low, coaxing voice rang in his ears.

"Your Highness, why are you crying?"
