Chapter 172

"No need," Qing Xia grabbed Qin Zhiyan's hand, raised her pale face pitifully, and said, "Just stay with me for a while."

Her eyes were clear and moving, with a rare weakness, like a cloud of water mist, which melted away layer by layer. Qin Zhiyan sat back on the bed, hugged her shoulders with his arms around her, and gently stroked her long hair with his palms. On the hair, silent.

Rhubarb crawled out of the water basin in embarrassment, looked at the two of them in displeasure, hummed twice, then fell to the ground with a thud, twisted his fat buttocks, and went outside to eat.

"Qin Zhiyan, I have never told you about my family." Qing Xia's voice was muffled, she lay in Qin Zhiyan's arms, and said softly.

Qin Zhiyan nodded and said, "No, let Yimaer tell me."

"My father, surnamed Zhou, is a doctor, and my mother is from Xinjiang."

The man slightly raised his voice, "Xinjiang?"

"Don't interrupt," Qing Xia said, "It's in Xichuan territory, further west than Bailuyuan..."

Qing Xia's voice was very small, but she still told everything about her little by little, about her life of wandering for so many years, and later joined the army, after many years of training, she was selected by MI9 as an agent Later, after being abandoned in Tokyo, someone cut off her head. After waking up, she became Nan Chu's concubine, and then she became entangled with Chu Li, had unclear entanglements with Qi An, and had nonsensical entanglements with the dealer. .From Nanchu to Xihei, from Sandfly to Xichuan, from Bailuyuan to Penglai Valley, when all these were finished, it was already midnight, and Rhubarb was lying in a padded wooden box, beating Sleeping soundly with snoring.

There was silence all around, and the candles were crackling. Qin Zhiyan didn't make a sound, but just hugged her quietly, his arms constantly tightened.After saying all this, Qing Xia seemed to have exhausted all her strength. She leaned against Qin Zhiyan's arms, sighed slightly, and said softly: "I have never told this story to anyone else, and I know they don't I will believe it. Qin Zhiyan, do you believe it?"

Qin Zhiyan's voice was slightly hoarse, his eyes were like lake water, with layers of ripples, and he almost drowned her in it gently, "Do you remember that I once said that no matter what you say, I will believe it of."

Tears immediately filled Qing Xia's eyes, crystal clear tears flowed down her cheeks, Qin Zhiyan's voice was like a warm sea, wrapping her layer by layer, even with the tiredness in her bones, Gradually fading away in the cold and desolate night.She raised her head, looked firmly into the man's black eyes, and said word by word: "Qin Zhiyan, a trip to Penglai hasn't changed anything, so please don't change, no matter you and him I just want to tell you what I said, even if I was not unconscious or seriously injured at the time, I would still follow you."

"A person's life always has to make a choice. I chose you that day on the White Deer Plain, and I won't look back."

Qin Zhiyan smiled slowly, with a bright light in his eyes. He knew that she had finally noticed the deliberate estrangement these days. He stretched out his hand, caressed her eyebrows and eyes, and said softly: "I just , afraid that you will regret it in the future."

Qing Xia smiled gently, but tears rolled down along with the lines of laughter, the pale woman raised her eyebrows: "Will you make me regret it?"

"I hope not," Qin Zhiyan gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Qing Xia's eyes, and said softly, "I'm just afraid that I'm not good enough."

"Don't be nice," Qing Xia shook her head, but her tears rolled down more and more, "I'm afraid that if you are too nice, I won't be good enough for you."

Qin Zhiyan held her face dotingly, and said with a smile: "Fool! You are the treasure bestowed on me by the heavens, and the only love in my life. The sufferings and injuries you have suffered are all in my heart. From now on, let me protect you, so that the rest of your life will be free from wind, waves, disasters and pain, and no matter who it is, I will never hurt you again."

With tears in the corners of Qing Xia's eyes, she slowly closed her eyes, raised her head, and kissed the corner of Qin Zhiyan's lips.That man with gloomy eyes, that desperate look in the flames, that tall and tall figure in the wind and snow finally shattered in his heart.Their acquaintance was originally a mistake, wrong time, wrong place, wrong identity, full of too many calculations and schemes, those ups and downs, great joy and great sorrow, the past has tortured the two of them to be riddled with holes.Or, what Zhuang Dianru said is right, she really shouldn't exist in his life. Only by letting go of the golden shackles can the white bird spread its wings and fly high. Only when there is no care and restraint can he realize his dream.

From now on, there will be no past between the north and south poles, and the merchants will never leave.

So be it, so be it.

In the early morning of the second day, Yan Ziying broke camp and prepared to return to Beijing. Qing Xia didn't ask Qin Zhiyan why he suddenly changed his mind. As a gift for her, I packed up two big carts.

Winter has gradually passed, and the willows in early spring have begun to sprout. The further east you go, the milder the climate.Six days later, when they arrived at Jinxiu City, the accompanying capital, they heard a report from a fast horse as soon as they got off the carriage, saying that the King of Qin had urgently invited Qin Zhiyan back to Xianyang to discuss important matters.

Qin Zhiyan frowned slightly, and instead of rushing back to Beijing as King Qin said, he stayed overnight in the official residence of Jinxiu City.

Qing Xia's trauma has gradually healed, and the witch doctor in Southern Xinjiang is really skilled in medicine, if not for the residual poison entrenched in her body, she would have almost recovered.History has changed, and things seem to be different. This Splendid City, which has never appeared in later generations, is here, but it is one of the most affluent capital cities in the world. The prosperity of commerce and trade is second only to Haicheng in the Eastern Qi Dynasty.Qingxia was rarely in such high spirits. When entering the city, she kept opening the curtain to look out. Qin Zhiyan was happy to see her. After arriving at the mansion, he ordered a few words and brought a few personal guards to accompany her. She goes shopping.

At this time, it was already dark, and it was the busiest night market in Jinxiu City. Qing Xia and Qin Zhiyan were dressed in ordinary clothes and mingled among the crowd, but they still couldn't hide their noble and luxurious aura. In the place, everyone gave way to look sideways, causing Qing Xia to feel dissatisfied.

However, not long after the stroll, a Yanzi camp guard suddenly ran over, saying that there was an urgent matter in Beijing, and Master Liu in the palace had something important to report to Qin Zhiyan.

Seeing Qin Zhiyan's serious expression, Qing Xia immediately remembered the urgent order from the King of Qin in the morning, and looked at the handsome man in a moon-white robe with some anxiety.Qin Zhiyan noticed her nervousness, smiled and took her hand, and they returned to the mansion together.

As soon as he entered the gate, a young, unrestrained and upright man suddenly stepped forward and said loudly: "King Xuan, great joy!"

Qin Zhiyan was taken aback for a moment, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Liu? Why do you like it?"

Mr. Liu smiled and said: "You don't know yet, the Great Emperor of Southern Chu gave [-] catties of Southern Chu Xuantie as a wedding gift, and wanted to marry our country. The eldest princess of Southern Chu, Princess Jiayun, is on the way now, and has already chosen a leader. Here you go!"

As if a thunderbolt exploded above his head, Qing Xia's face immediately turned pale, and Chu Li's nightmare voice echoed in his ears again: Even if I die, I will not let you go!
The white candle is burning high, and the light is like a bean.

The heavy wooden door was opened with a creak, and the woman sitting with her chin on her back slowly turned her head, smiled brightly, stood up, and went to meet her.

"Master Liu is gone?"

"En." Qin Zhiyan obediently took off his coat, handed it to Qingxia, and pulled her back to sit beside the table, took her hand, but felt a biting cold, frowned slightly, and said : "Why is it so cold, have you taken medicine?"

Qing Xia nodded, pointing to the white porcelain bowl on the table: "I just finished eating and drank a bowl of honey water, it's so bitter."

Qin Zhiyan smiled and said: "Good medicine tastes bitter, so it will be good for your illness."

"I see." Qing Xia said with a smile: "I'm not a child, am I still afraid of taking medicine? But Mr. Baishi's medicine is really bitter. He seems to be doing it on purpose to get revenge on the day before yesterday when he was stolen by Rhubarb. The hatred of an old ginseng."

Qin Zhiyan smiled casually, scratched the tip of her nose fondly, and said, "Naughty!"

Qing Xia chuckled, and poured a cup of tea for Qin Zhiyan, the two casually chatted about something irrelevant, and it gradually got late.Qin Zhiyan stood up and wanted to leave, but Qing Xia got up and saw him off without any discomfort.

"Yimaer." Even though he was as calm as Qin Zhiyan, he still couldn't help turning around and said softly before going out: "You don't have to worry about that matter. I will definitely..."

"I know." Before Qin Zhiyan could finish speaking, Qing Xia quickly cut off his words, and said with a smile: "I know you will handle it properly, I'm not worried at all."

Qin Zhiyan was taken aback for a moment, and then a big smile appeared on his face. He stroked Qing Xia's soft long hair with a smile, and said, "That's good, go to bed early, and have to go on the road tomorrow."

"En." Qing Xia nodded, watching Qin Zhiyan walk out of the room, the smile on his face finally faded away, and he sat on the bed with heavy steps, his head began to ache violently.Rhubarb whimpered and bit her skirt, wagging his tail gently, and hung a white and warm jade tablet around his neck, throwing away the coldness, the words at the end were put together, it was the man's name.

Is that how he got his name?
A child who has never received the slightest love from his parents, and indeed even his name is so lonely and indifferent, is doomed to a bumpy road from birth.

If it is said that the ravine opened that day, giving himself and Chu Li a chance to be alone, shattered Zhuang Dianru's crazy plan to completely wipe out the king's inner hope.So now, am I cruelly walking this old path again?Qing Xia smiled sadly, she used to think that relying on her meager strength could turn the world around, but she didn't know that it was just pushing him into another deeper abyss.For a long time, it was her self-righteousness and self-righteousness that belonged to all the people around her. She believed in her own strength too much, worshiped her own ability too much, and fought for the best in everything, so she put herself , and pushed the people he cared about to a difficult and desperate situation time and time again.
