After arriving at Qiaojiazhai and meeting the leader of Qiaojiazhai, Bai Qige finally understood what it meant to be eye-opening.
"My father has this problem. The older he gets, the younger he gets. As long as I leave the village for ten days and a half, he will definitely cry all day long." After a lot of efforts to coax the old village master Qiao Qingxu, Qiao Qingxu looked unusual.
Tired, she sat in the big chair next to her and sighed. Only then did Bai Qige realize that Qiao Qingxu's worry just now was not for anything else, but because she had an inconspicuous father, and he was a man who looked majestic and was very capable.
He looks like a very cute old man.
"Who told you to run away without even saying a word? I'm just a daughter like you. Who will support me after you run away with a man? Who will take care of Qiaojiazhai?" The old owner of Qiaojiazhai was quite unconvinced and sat down while rubbing his red eyes.
Returning to the tiger-skin couch, "Can you not worry if you don't have a son-in-law at this age? I also want to have a grandson as soon as possible!"
Qiao Qingxu rolled her eyes in anger: "That's nonsense, I think about inexplicable things every day."
Bai Qige laughed dumbly.
One is so heroic that he is more powerful than a man, and the other is a beloved daughter who is sick and cranky. The father and daughter are a perfect match. With the two of them leading the Qiao family village, it is no wonder that the children in the village are all smiling and don't know what to worry about. In fact, Bai Qige is very envious.
The people here may not be rich, or they may rob and be despised by others, but they are very happy, live a fulfilling life every day, and have a sense of satisfaction and belonging that can fill a lifetime.
She wanted to live an ordinary life, but she also hoped that Yi Chenjing could soar into the sky and rule the world. It was impossible to predict which fate would be hers in the end, or maybe neither of them, but beheading and spilling blood on the execution platform.
her ending.
On the road to border closure, the emperor's career is the most extreme. Either the winner becomes the king and ascends to the throne, or the loser becomes a bandit and his body and head are in a different place.
"What are Sister Bai thinking about? It's time to go." His thoughts were interrupted by the sudden appearance of a young face. Ye Huawan stood in front of Bai Qige with his head tilted. Behind him were the smiling Fu Chu and... Qiao Qing, whose face was extremely dark.
wadding.
Looking sideways, Zhan Ting stood in silence in front of the wooden couch with his head bowed. The expression on the old village master Qiao's face was not as friendly as before. It seemed that the two people were inevitably going to "reminisce about the past."
"Let's go, I'll take you to a resting place." Qiao Qingxu glanced at Zhan Ting quickly, then turned around and waved nonchalantly.
Watching the group of people leaving the hall, Village Leader Qiao sighed: "Are you going to leave this time?"
"Um."
"You little bastard!" Seeing Zhan Ting's dull look, Master Qiao Laozhai was furious and raised his hand to strike down. Seeing that he refused to dodge, he suddenly lost his anger and let out a longer and deeper sound.
Sighing lingered in the empty house. Putting down his hand, Village Leader Qiao pointed at the door: "I think you can't figure it out in your life. Come on, finish your work and leave as soon as possible. I won't even look at you again! Remember that you saved me back then.
I won’t punish you for my daughter’s sake, but don’t come to her again, Qiaojiazhai doesn’t owe you anything!”
Leaving without saying goodbye has always been the biggest guilt in Zhan Ting's heart. The fact that the village leader Qiao agreed to help Yi Chenjing without asking a word was beyond his expectation. Even though he was scolded bloody, he didn't even say a word of defense. On the contrary,
He respectfully took three steps back and knelt on the ground with a plop.
Being honest and honest, Zhan Ting also has his own stubbornness, just like this moment, he only kneeled down but didn't say a word.
The old village leader Qiao was a little worried that sighing all the time would shorten his life span, but he really couldn't smile when facing Zhan Ting. He sighed one after another, and in the blink of an eye he felt like he had aged ten years. Those things in the past are still vivid in his mind, but now
The desolation was deep in his heart. Village leader Qiao didn't know what else to say or do. He punched his knee with a fist and said with extreme helplessness: "Go down. Please stay with Qingxu for the next two days. There are many girls there."
I wanted to tell you something, but I never had the chance."
We are separated from each other in the past, and we are far apart from each other. Who can we talk to each other no matter how affectionate we are?
He knew his daughter very well, and because he knew Cai Qian so well, he hated her, but she met a dull fool who didn't understand what love was, and she couldn't complain no matter how much she complained.
"Zhan Ting's return here seems a bit..." Bai Qige spoke cautiously in the newly tidied hut.
"He just felt shameless to see his brothers. After all, he broke many people's hearts by leaving without saying goodbye. After that, the most glorious days of Qiaojiazhai were over." Looking at the busy crowd outside the house, Qiao Qingxu's eyes flashed with sadness,
Then he immediately returned to being frank and straightforward, "You two have a rest first. I have something to tell Ye Zi and Fu Chu. I will send someone to call you during dinner."
Bai Qige nodded and watched Qiao Qingxu leave. She turned around and closed the door, standing at the door thoughtfully.
"If you want to help them, you can't just say a few words and use some tricks to achieve your goal. You haven't been able to pierce the layer of paper for so many years. Do you still expect to turn into Yue Lao overnight to hold the red thread for them?" Bai Qige pulled Bai Qige away.
When she got to the chair, Yi Chenjing stretched her arms lazily.
"I always thought that Zhan Ting was innocent and innocent, but I didn't know that he had so much past. To be loyal to you and even leave a woman who loves him like Sister Qiao to endure humiliation and enter the palace, he can be considered the most benevolent and righteous person."
Yi Chenjing frowned and squeezed Bai Qige's chin hard: "You only think about other people's affairs in your mind. You see everything clearly. Why don't you have confidence in yourself?"
Bai Qige could roughly understand the meaning of his words, but she was interrupted when she was about to speak.
"Qi Ge, tell me, do you care about the scars on your face?" Yi Chenjing bent down and gently slid his warm fingertips across her white cheeks. When she touched the hideous scars, she felt heartache and regret.
She didn't have any outstanding appearance, and she became the laughing stock of outsiders after he ruined her appearance. At first, he thought she didn't care. Even if she was pointed out, she could hold her head high, confident and fearless, but the deeper the contact, the more
The deeper the love, the more he felt Bai Qige's slight inferiority, not compared to any beautiful woman and her wife, but compared to someone who didn't exist at all.
Maybe she always thought that he should have a wife as beautiful as a fairy.
Bai Qige didn't want to hide too much from Yi Chenjing, so she turned around and her eyes fell on the worn-out bronze mirror. The face of the woman in the mirror was once strange but now familiar, and what she is most familiar with is the scar, no matter how many days and nights it takes.
Whether it's in the mirror or the reflection in the water, every time she touches it, she can't help but think about the day she was reborn, and the cold-blooded man who hated her to the core and ruined her appearance.
Lonely smiles lightly, fingers slide across the smooth surface of the bronze mirror, there is no disgusting touch of wrinkled skin, but unfortunately, that is not real.
"With your self-esteem, it's hard to be talked about and laughed at in private? I don't want to see people pointing fingers at you." Bai Qige did not answer Yi Chenjing's question. She and he both knew the answer to the question, and they didn't care.
It's just her reason.
Little did he know that her understanding and overturning of everything would only make Yi Chenjing even more intolerable.
Bending down and hugging the thin body, her lips replaced the fingertips and kissed the hideous scar. Yi Chenjing was extremely gentle, as if she wanted to let Bai Qige know all her regrets through this scar. If he had known today, how could he hurt her so cruelly?
?If he had known today, how could he have opened a wound on her heart? He only regretted that there was no regret medicine in the world, otherwise he would rather break his own hands than hurt her at all.
The seventh prince of Dayao, who pecked his round earlobes and was always indifferent or pretending to be humble towards outsiders, was as affectionate as water. He looked into the mirror with his long, squinting eyes. One face had clean lines and well-proportioned features, while the other was slightly pale and ferocious.
It was terrifying, but in his opinion, it was a perfect match made in heaven and earth.
"There is a red blood shark bead in my father's Yunzhen Pavilion. It is said to have miraculous effects on healing scars. I will find an opportunity to get it for you after I return to the palace."
"If we can return to the palace smoothly, we will still have to face a lot of chaos. Let's get rid of Yi Chenxuan first. You know very well that this scar is not a day or two. It is not a big problem. Besides, I don't often feel depressed like this. There is no need.
If you are in such a hurry to ask for shark beads, please do not let the emperor think that you are greedy and greedy because of your status."
"...What should I do with you?" Yi Chenjing sighed and murmured. The whole weight of Yi Chenjing was pressed on Bai Qige's shoulders. She closed her eyes and frowned, "I used to think that the throne was within my own ability.
Okay, you don’t have to force it. Now that you’re working so hard, I feel like I’ll be sorry if you can’t win this country. Qi Ge, I know we have no way out, but you don’t have to force yourself like this.
I will be exhausted. I don’t want to reach a position one day without you by my side.”
Bai Qige was slightly in a trance, her eyes blank and slightly confused.
Did she push herself? Everything she did was just to give Yi Chenjing an advantage and to stand out among the princes in the battle for the throne and become the emperor of the distant country. She was a little tired, but she was happy with it!
"I didn't..." She muttered to herself weakly and lowly, feeling confused for a moment. Her eyes that never backed down in the face of danger shone again. This was the path she chose. After experiencing the glory and heavy mission of her previous life, she was reborn.
In this life, she doesn't care about anything except her family and Yi Chenjing. It may make people think that she lacks self in her life, but it is undeniable that her life is closely related to him, and it is not just a simple "I am crazy about love"
"It can be explained. Patting the back of Yi Chenjing's hand, Bai Qige looked deeply: "If you want to get something, you have to give it first. Whether it's this face, or marrying far away when the country is overthrown, I want to make up for everything I've lost.
"
Therefore, he must become the hegemon of Zhongzhou and give her the country and the praises of all people as compensation.
He flicked his fingers on his forehead: "You have such a huge appetite. If you weren't the king of a country, I really wouldn't be able to pay you back."
"Then you work hard to become the emperor. You are the king and I am the queen. Then I will seize the world from you without having to fight or change the palace. Why not?"
They stared at each other and were speechless for a long time. Finally, Yi Chenjing couldn't hold back her anger and made a move. She raised her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes, as if she was going to do something rogue. Unfortunately, Bai Qige broke away before she could lower her head to kiss her.
An elbow hit his chest heavily.
"rogue!"
"Female bandit!"
The playful figures were reflected in the half-old bronze mirror. It was completely impossible to tell that these two people were actually the prince couple who would cause huge waves in the future. And on the path half a mountain away, another twists and turns had already begun.
