Remnant King's Concubine

Chapter 63
"Ji?" Disappointment flashed in Li Qingquan's eyes.

Ji Liangruo bit her lip and didn't explain.She was timid in her heart, afraid of getting the truth that she could not accept.

Li Qingquan thought for a while and asked, "Which season?"

Qin Yunyao said: "Unfortunately, there is more than your surname."

Li Qingquan was a little excited when he heard this, and looked closely at Ji Liangruo: "You...have you heard of Taocheng? Have you heard of a woman named Ruyuan?"

"Is that woman important to the hero?" Ji Liangruo asked with suppressed emotions.

"She..." Li Qingquan's eyes darkened, "If you know her, if you have something to do with her...you--" He looked at Ji Liangruo, looking at Ji Liangruo's calm and almost numb eyes, " Have you? Do you know her?"

"Heroes should be sincere if they want to find someone." Ji Liangruo lowered his head.

Li Qingquan smiled and nodded: "Yes...you are right! I should be sincere first...she...who is she to me? Wife? I haven't given her a title..."

When Ji Liangruo heard this, his nails dug into the back of Qin Yunyao's hand.

After a while, he said with certainty: "She is my wife. Her name is Ruyuan, she lives in Taocheng, and she has a younger sister named Ruyi... There is a wooden plaque on my sword tassel, engraved with the words Liangruoqingquan. Carved the wooden sign into the shape of a leaf and gave it to her, she laughed and said, if we have a child, we will call it Liang Ruo... That's why I heard your name—"

"Don't you know if you have children?" Ji Liangruo interrupted him excitedly.

He looked at her and smiled bitterly: "I left soon, and I didn't know if she was pregnant at that time. If she was, it would only be two or three months at most, otherwise you would be able to tell. If you are... then you should be nineteen this year -"

"I am!" Ji Liangruo yelled, tears filled his eyes, "My mother's name is Ruyuan, and my aunt's name is Ruyi! I have a wooden pendant engraved with a cool spring! I'm from Taocheng! You...you are me Father?"

She doesn't believe it!Do not believe!

She almost fell to the ground, Qin Yunyao supported her and let her lean on his wheelchair.

Li Qingquan was originally excited and joyful, but when he heard her last words, he laughed at himself: "I am not worthy to be your father...not only leave your mother and daughter behind, but also a prisoner who has robbed and killed people and will be wanted forever by the court! "He clenched his hands into fists, his wrists turned in the iron locks, and blood flowed out...

"You..." If Ji Liang wanted to explain something, he gave up and said angrily, "You are unworthy! You abandoned my mother and me first, and now you are here to kill my husband, and even want to kill me! Don't think I will recognize you!" Don't even think about me calling you! Of course... maybe I'm just being sentimental, you won't care about this sudden appearance—"

She couldn't say the word "daughter", her teeth were chattering, and it took her a long time to say a word: "I!"

After finishing speaking, she shook off Qin Yunyao's hand and ran out.

"Liangruo!" Qin Yunyao yelled anxiously, but sitting in a wheelchair, it was difficult to even turn around.He patted the wheelchair angrily, and said to Mo Yan, "Go and stop her!"

Mo Yan immediately ran out.

He said to Qin Yunwei again: "Push me out quickly!" As he spoke, he moved out and gave orders, "Send him back to the cell and apply medicine to his wound! No one is allowed to reveal a word about what happened just now!"

Qin Yunwei pushed him out hastily, and the guards immediately went to unshackle Li Qingquan.Ruixue glanced at him anxiously, and quickly chased him out.

Mo Yan stopped Ji Liangruo as soon as she reached the stairs. She slid down the wall, buried her head in her knees, and wept depressingly.

Qin Yunyao arrived, pulled her up and pressed her into his arms: "Don't cry, I'm here."

"It's actually..." She grabbed his lapel, "It's him... He's..."

"Don't worry." He patted her on the back, "He is a hero, there must be a reason for keeping your mother in Taocheng."

"Yes!" Rui Xue followed closely.

Everyone looked up at her, and she explained: "I have heard the story of Li Daxia. He has repeatedly taken risks for his colleagues in the rivers and lakes, completely disregarding personal safety. He is a resounding man and a strong hero!"

"Then I hope my mother will never meet a hero again in her next life..." Ji Liangruo cried, "A hero cherishes everyone in the world, but she is the only one who forgets her..."

Qin Yunyao stiffened slightly, hugged her in his arms, and whispered in her ear: "I will never be a hero! I would rather lose the world than you!"

She stopped crying, raised her head and looked at him with tears in her eyes: "Are you talking?"

"Yes, I'm talking." He looked at her and wiped her tears with his hand, "Without him for 19 years, I don't need to feel so uncomfortable and cry so fiercely when I see him. Where is the husband who has been sleeping for so long?"

She laughed suddenly, and the tears couldn't stop streaming down: "That's because I made a big deal out of a molehill..."

"It's okay to make a big fuss, there's no need to be so exaggerated." He said, "If you want to settle accounts with him, you have to take care of yourself first."

She was speechless for a moment.

Settle accounts?Is she going to settle accounts with him?What account does she have to settle?No matter how wrong he was, he gave her life, so why should she blame him?The mother's fate is chosen by herself, and she is too excited to be meddling in her own business.

But, doesn't it count?ignore it?It seems that there is something that I can't swallow, and there is something that I can't let go...

She looked at the depths of the dungeon, a few blurred shadows were moving in the tears.Did they get him back in the cell?Thinking of the welt marks on his body and the blood on his wrist, she suddenly wanted to see him.

Tears couldn't stop flowing down again, and she realized that her turning around today was not the end, but the beginning...

They will meet again at last...

Qin Yunyao took her back to Bixiao Courtyard.She needed to calm down, so she sat on the bed for a long time, then went to the study to copy the Art of War.This is the first time she took the initiative to copy the Art of War.

"Write it down and memorize it silently in your heart. It's best to memorize it - in this way, you will forget what happened now."

She nodded and said to him: "Is Ruixue outside? I'm not in the mood right now. You can deal with Dongyue's affairs with her."

"Call me if you have anything to do," he ordered.

She nodded.

He kissed her on the eyebrow before going out, Qin Yunwei had already gone back to Jingyue Courtyard, only Ruixue and Mo Yan were in the living room.

"My lord—" the two spoke at the same time when they saw him.

"Keep your voice down," he said, and asked Mo Yan, "Is there anyone guarding outside?"

"Green shoot is guarding." Mo Yan said.

Qin Yunyao nodded and asked, "What's going on at Jingyueyuan?"

"I'm still looking for Dongyue. It's said that she stole the concubine's jewelry and absconded in fear of crime. Of course, the concierge didn't see anyone going out, but he didn't find anyone in the mansion, so it's a bit vague."

"How can we lie now and let Ruixue go back for her?"

"I'm not a thief!" Ruixue said, "Otherwise, is there any reason to stay?"

Qin Yunyao tapped his fingers on his knees continuously, and said: "Then go change your appearance first, and think about it while changing your appearance... Do you want her to change her appearance into yours instead? Otherwise, if Dongyue has it, you will Missing, how to explain?"

"The Empress Dowager wants to get rid of me, so let her take my place!"

"Not a bad idea." Qin Yunyao smiled.

"However, she can't die now." Ruixue said, "I need to get in touch with her a few more times, so that I can learn everything about her—expression, movement, voice, eyes... so that even the closest people can't recognize her!"

"But you may not know the people she knows..." Qin Yunyao sighed, "Let's leave it like this for now. Take her out of the prison—are the people in your room reliable?"

"They are the prince's people. If they are reliable, they should be reliable! But, I'm afraid they won't pay close attention to Dongyue. If Dongyue delivers the news, isn't it very dangerous?"

Qin Yunyao thought for a while, then smiled and said, "I think that one person can keep an eye on her and guarantee that she won't be able to play tricks."

"That's the best!"

Mo Yan took Ruixue to the prison again, made her change into Dongyue's appearance, and changed Dongyue's clothes and jewelry.

Dongyue saw another self appearing step by step with her own eyes, and she was terrified to the bone: "What are you going to do?"
