The low sobs deeply touched the figure who was hiding not far away. He stared at Qi Zi and felt sad. Just when he raised his feet and ran over to hug her tightly, someone jumped in first.
When Qi Zi heard the footsteps, he raised his head and stood up tremblingly. When Qi Zi came to his senses, Liu Zhongwen was already less than five steps away from him.
Qi Zi was about to turn around and leave, but Liu Zhongwen stepped forward, grabbed her and shouted at the same time: "Qi Zi, wait, please don't leave."
The familiar warmth came from the palm of his hand, and Qi Zi looked back with tears. At that moment, the hearts of those hiding in the dark and those standing in the light were broken.
Tears finally fell, Qi Zi withdrew his hand and remained silent.
Liu Zhongwen said: "Has he found you?"
Qi Zi understood who the 'him' Liu Zhongwen was talking about and sneered: "Should I thank you?"
Liu Zhongwen cast a doubtful look, and Qi Zi took out the sachet from his arms and said, "Didn't you say that the peace charm inside would protect him from finding me as soon as possible? He found me."
"Qi Zi, listen to my explanation..."
"Explain? Explain what? Even if you no longer love me, there is no need to be so anxious to push me towards a man I don't love." Qi Zi cried.
"But I can see that he loves you, and the fact that he can put aside his dignity and status to come out of the palace to find you shows how important your position is in his mind, so I think it might not be a bad thing for him to find you." Liu Zhongwen said softly,
He didn't dare to look into Qi Zi's eyes.
"But I don't love him. If it weren't for his dominance, we wouldn't be like this. Yi Qiu wouldn't have died so early. You actually helped him and wanted to hand me over to him."
"Qi Zi, listen to me, things are not what you imagined?"
"I don't want to hear it. I hate you for not keeping your promise. I hate your incompetence. Do you know how sad I was when I saw Yi Qiu standing next to you with a big belly and calling you husband-in-law? Why?
You are all so cruel to take away my happiness and leave me alone. Is my appearance so unbearable and unnecessary?" Qi Zi became more and more sad as he spoke, and tears could not stop flowing down his face.
Liu Zhongwen panicked. He knew that Qizi hated him, but he didn't know that her reaction would be so big. He didn't know what to do and was even more at a loss. Seeing Qizi turn into a tearful person, he stepped forward with heartache.
Holding him tightly, Qi Zi struggled and beat him angrily, but Liu Zhongwen refused to dodge and let Qi Zi vent his anger. "You go ahead, Qi Zi, hit me hard, even if you beat me to death, I will
I won’t run away from it.”
Qi Zi was so cruel that he kept beating him. She surrounded his arms and cried loudly, shouting heartbrokenly: "Brother Zhong Wen, Brother Zhong Wen, I'm sorry."
People in the dark leave sadly, jealously, angry, and lonely.
"Qi Zi, let's go. Leave here as far away as possible. I don't want to lose you again. From the moment I went to church with Yi Qiu, I started to regret it. I regretted not keeping the promise between us. Do you know?
When the news of the emperor's canonization of you as queen was announced to the world, my heart felt like a big hole opened up. Now we meet again. This is God's will. Our previous fate has not dried up." Liu Zhongwen cried and said
, the gentle words melted Qi Zi’s long-cold heart, and at the same time - she was also confused.
Qi Zi pushed him away gently and said, "But Brother Zhongwen, where can we go? What if he finds us..."
Liu Zhongwen once again held Qi Zi deeply in his arms, "I don't care, as long as you are by my side, I will not regret it even if I escape to the ends of the world. Even if he is the emperor, it won't work. You are mine, and it is he who has taken me from you."
The one who took you away from me."
"Shut up." A sharp shout came, and the two of them looked for words to leave at the same time. Liu Fu stood beside the rockery angrily.
"Master/Uncle." They both shouted at the same time.
Master Liu came over and said to them: "How can you be so ridiculous? In the whole world, it is not the king's land. Where can you escape to? Where is the end of the world?"
He turned slightly and said to Liu Zhongwen: "Zhongwen, it has been so long. I thought your feelings for Qi Zi had been sealed. I didn't expect that they would rekindle. But you must know that you are no longer the Liu Zhongwen and Liang Qi Zi you were before.
Well, now one of you is the mother of the country, and the other is a father, and you have to figure out your identity."
Then he said to Qi Zi: "Qi Zi, Master will teach you for the last time. No matter how unwilling you are, since the emperor has named you the queen, your responsibility is to be the mother of the world. How can you let the love of these little children get stumbled?"
Come on, if you don’t even understand this truth, all my hard work in cultivating you will be in vain.”
"Uncle, Qi Zi is not happy. You know we have been childhood sweethearts since we were young. I also vowed to make Qi Zi happy. But look, what has become of Qi Zi now? You only know the truth, and you have to take it into consideration.
That’s how Qi Zi feels!” Liu Zhongwen said, holding Qi Zi’s hand tightly.
"Confused, confused, Zhong Wen, why are you so confused?" Liu Fuzi's expression of hating iron for not being able to turn into steel suddenly appeared on his face, and he was so angry that he walked away.
These days, Qi Zi's identity has not been revealed in the Ling Mansion, and Master Liu and Liu Zhongwen have not mentioned anything related to her. Everyone knows that speaking out either means it is meaningless or the matter is serious.
At noon, Qi Zi was holding Siqi and basking in the sun in the garden. Looking at him reminded him of Yi Qiu. Zhong Wen gave the child the name Siqi. Qi Zi felt a little guilty and felt sorry for Yi Qiu when he saw her.
When she stood in front of Liu Zhongwen with a big belly, she knew that Yi Qiu had fallen in love with Liu Zhongwen. Now that she was gone and left her only son behind, she had the responsibility to take good care of him.
Xiuyu brought tea and put it on the stone table, and teased little Enqi with Qizi.
There were many smiles on Qi Zi's face. Liu Zhongwen and Ling Shiqi walked over from under the flower stand. Qi Zi stood up and wanted to hand the child to Liu Zhongwen, but she didn't want to feel dizzy and almost fainted.
Ling Shiqi stepped forward, hugged Qi Zi, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong, Qi Zi? Is it uncomfortable there? Do you want me to invite Master Shang?"
Liu Zhongwen took the child and looked at her worriedly. Seeing Liu Zhongwen's worried expression, Qi Zi felt a strange feeling in her heart. Why did his expression look so like Xuan Yi? For a moment just now, she thought it was Xuan Yi.
Standing in front of her, he must have fainted, so his eyesight was dazzled. How could he think of Xuan Yi?
Qi Zi rubbed his temples and said, "Brother Ling, don't worry, I'm fine. I'll be like this these days. Maybe I haven't had a good rest. I'll be fine in a while."
Inadvertently, Qi Zi glanced at Zhao Yunniang who was standing opposite. The sad look on her face shocked Qi Zi. Seeing her resentful look at Ling Shiqi, Qi Zi was stunned for a moment.
Pay attention.
"Brother Ling, can you go for a walk with me?" Ling Shiqi felt flattered by Qi Zi's sudden request, and immediately smiled and said: "Of course."
