Chapter 820 The Duke of Mausoleum, another story of the past

Qi Qiaoqiao didn't expect Bailiduan to name that person, he was in a trance, shook his head and said to Bailiduan: "I, I don't know... I know he likes others in his heart, but I can't help myself liking him .”

Bai Liduan's heart was shocked. Why didn't he look like this? He murmured: "Then will you marry him? Fourth brother... Will he marry you?"

Qi Qiaoqiao shook his head and said, "I don't know."

A glimmer of hope was ignited in Bailiduan's heart, he adjusted himself and smiled at Qi Qiaoqiao: "That means, I still have a chance?"

Qi Qiaoqiao glanced at Bailiduan, and Bailiduan said: "Don't worry, I will arrange everything for you, Qiaoqiao, I will wait for your change of heart."

After speaking, he left Qi Qiaoqiao's residence, only Qi Qiaoqiao was left looking at his back, not knowing what was going on in his heart for a moment.

Until the next night, Baili Duan came over, saying that he wanted to take Qi Qiaoqiao away from the East Palace.

Qi Qiaoqiao didn't expect it to be so fast, everything hadn't been packed yet, Bai Liduan said: "No need to pack, just take the important things and leave, your brother will prepare everything for you Yes, when you arrive at Duke Ling's mansion, you will be Duke Ling's younger sister, with a brand new identity, you don't need these things."

After leaving the Eastern Palace with Bai Liduan late at night, Qi Qiaoqiao remembered that she hadn't had time to tell Bai Liyue about all this.Baili Yue hadn't sent a message to Qi Qiaoqiao for a long time, and the changes that happened in just a few days seemed to have passed for a long time.

Qi Qiaoqiao has been in the palace for nearly three years. It is not long, but it is not too short. After she came to this world, she has only been in contact with two places, one is the Qin Palace, and the other is the palace. .

The days spent in the palace almost occupied Qi Qiaoqiao's entire time in this world. She met her good friends here, and watched the people who were once the closest to her leave.

Daming Palace witnessed Qi Qiaoqiao's growth, sadness and joy after he came to this world, his relationship with Bai Liyue, and his acquaintance with Bai Liduan all happened here.

Qi Qiaoqiao has thought about what it will be like when she leaves Daming Palace many times, and she has also hoped countless times that she can leave here as soon as possible.

However, when it was time to leave, Qi Qiaoqiao suddenly began to feel reluctant. From today onwards, she will bid farewell to the identity of the daughter of the Taiyuan county magistrate, bid farewell to the days of serving others every day, and watching the face of the master, and start a brand new period. Life.

And this palace, but I don't know when—probably for a lifetime, it will never come back.

Qi Qiaoqiao glanced at the palace hidden in the darkness, left here without looking back, and followed Bai Liduan out of the palace.

When he arrived at Duke Ling's mansion, Qi Yuan had been waiting for a long time. The moment he saw Qi Qiaoqiao, he went up to hold her hand tightly and said, "Qiaoqiao——you're finally home, brother!" I'll take you to see where we used to live, and you will still live there from now on!"

Qi Qiaoqiao squinted his eyes to look at this elder brother, his face was even more handsome under the dim light, Qi Qiaoqiao nodded, and followed Qi Yuan to the backyard of Duke Ling's mansion.

That place is the place where Qi Qiaoqiao lived with Mrs. Ling Guogong when he was young. Qi Qiaoqiao seems to still have this impression in his memory, but it is very blurred. When she stepped into the courtyard, the lights inside were still brightly lit. A servant girl greeted her with Yingsheng and Yanyu, Qi Qiaoqiao just nodded lightly, and then looked around the courtyard, as if retrieving the good memories of the past.

However, all that came to my mind was that night, the endless cries, the flames soaring into the sky, and the lady of Lingguo holding Qi Qiaoqiao's hand full of tears, calling her name over and over again: "Qiaoqiao—— —Leave here, leave the capital, go to Lingnan, and never come back for the rest of your life.”

Qi Qiaoqiao seemed about to be blown up by this memory, she turned and ran out of the courtyard, weeping softly when she walked not far away, when Qi Yuan saw Qi Qiaoqiao like this, he quickly went up to her and held her hand. Shoulder said: "What's wrong with Qiaoqiao? Don't you like this place?"

Qi Qiaoqiao shook his head, leaned on his brother's shoulder and said in a low voice: "No, no, just seeing this place reminds me of that night, this place can no longer evoke any good memories, mother, and mother Those people around me, did they all die here in the end..."

Yes, this mansion is the old mansion of Duke Ling, and it is also the place where nearly three hundred members of the Qi family are buried. When the night wind blows, it seems that they can still hear the sobs of those innocent souls from ten years ago, as if they are asking why They died, but they are still alive in this world.

After hearing Qi Qiaoqiao's words, Qi Yuan also remained silent, just patted her on the shoulder and said, "It's okay...it's okay, it's over, third brother is by your side."

Seeing Qi Qiaoqiao like this, Bai Liduan was also silent. After a long time, Qi Yuan said: "Since you don't like this place, brother will take you to live in another place, we won't live here... "

Qi Qiaoqiao nodded, and followed Qi Yuan out of the yard.

Because other places have not been tidied up, the fire that year almost razed the Lingguo mansion to the ground, because too many people died here, no one else in the capital dared to live here, and the emperor never set aside This mansion is a feast for the eyes.

Later, the place fell into disrepair for a long time and was full of weeds. The prince would often send someone to clean it up in private, but he didn't dare to come.

The "Ling Guogong" door plaque hanging outside is still on it. This time when Qi Yuan came back, the emperor rewarded him with the original mansion as a residence, and asked people to speed up the repairs, but hurry up and wait for Qi Yuan to come back. Only half of them have been repaired, and most of them are still uninhabitable.

Therefore, Qi Yuan brought Qi Qiaoqiao to the place where he lived for the past few days, Qi Qiaoqiao said: "You will sleep with the third brother for the next few days, and the third brother can sleep in the study room. Clean up your residence, and you will be able to live in it in a few days..."

Because it was in the dark, Qi Qiaoqiao didn't see the whole picture of the Duke of Ling's mansion clearly, but after hearing what Qi Yuan said, he probably understood in his heart that the Duke of Ling's mansion was probably in dilapidated condition.

Fortunately, Qi Qiaoqiao didn't care about these things, and agreed softly. The two brothers and sisters thanked Bai Liduan who came back together, and Bai Liduan told Qi Qiaoqiao: "You'd better not go out these days. Let’s talk about it when things in the palace calm down!”

After finishing speaking, he nodded to Qi Yuan and said: "I think you can take good care of your sister without my instructions, so I won't say anything. I think you brothers and sisters still have a lot to say, so I won't bother you..."
