The night was still going on, and occasionally there was the sound of wind blowing outside the window. I didn't know whether Xuan Yi was really sleeping or pretending to sleep. Qi Zi couldn't break free from his arms. He was tired, and finally couldn't hold on anymore, and fell into a deep sleep.
go.
The next morning, Xuan Yi woke up early. Seeing Qi Zi sleeping in his arms like a baby, she felt indescribable warmth in her heart. Qi Zi, who had lost her memory, also slept in his arms like this. At that time, she said
: She feels safe and not afraid of anything. I wonder if she feels the same way at this time.
At noon, Qi Zi moved and suddenly opened his eyes. There was no one around him, so he stood up suddenly. Defu, who was standing at the door, saw Qi Zi getting up and said, "I'm going to pay my respects to the queen."
Qi Zi said: "Eunuch De, please rise." After saying that, she felt that her voice was clearer today than yesterday.
"Thank you, empress."
"Father, what time is it now?" Qi Zi asked softly.
"It's almost noon when I get back to you, Madam."
Qi Zi was so shocked that he didn't expect that he fell asleep last night, and he didn't expect that he slept until noon. What happened to him that he fell asleep so deeply in his arms.
"Where is the Emperor?"
"I went out with General Lan early in the morning. Before I left, I told my slave to remember to make my wife take her medicine on time and prepare lunch."
Qi Zi secretly thought: Is this an opportunity? As long as he is not here, there will be a chance to go out. He quickly asked: "When will you come back?"
Defu said: "The emperor will come back and have dinner with the empress."
Qi Zi's face turned into a smile, but De Fu was a little nervous. Qi Zi asked: "Eunuch De Fu, what's wrong?"
"Back to your Majesty, the Emperor also said that if he doesn't see your Majesty when he comes back, he will have his head moved."
Defu's words were like a basin of cold water poured on the burning flame, which was now filled with only light smoke. Qi Zi was so angry that his chest was heaving. He was determined that he did not dare to make fun of Eunuch De's life rashly.
But he was a man who kept his word. Qi Zi said: "Eunuch De, please go out. I want to lie down for a while. I won't have lunch. If I want to eat, I will tell you."
"Yes, your Majesty, I will leave."
Defu went out and closed the door. Qi Zi lay on the bed again, thinking wildly: Even if he could go out successfully, he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to come back for dinner even if he was injured. What if Xuan Yi was so cruel?
If he kills Eunuch De, doesn’t he become an indirect murderer?
I lay down and didn't want to move. There was some itching on my right arm, and the wound was already healing. Even if I got up, I just walked around the garden, and Defu would follow me wherever I went. The garden was now like a small palace, and I was trapped again.
Just go back to sleep. At least in my dreams, I don’t have so many worries.
Ling Shiqi woke up in the morning. The first person he saw when he opened his eyes was Zhao Yunniang, and an inexplicable emotion arose in his heart. But the first thing he said was: "Have you found the wolfberry?"
If he went there to look for it, no one would be looking for Qi Zi except him. At this time, Ling Shiqi was sitting in the study, having just taken the medicine that Ling Nian brought over, he immediately sent someone to inquire.
Zhao Yunniang looked at him worriedly and said: "Cousin, you are injured, you should go back to your room and lie down. You will definitely find the whereabouts of Qi Zi."
"Yun Niang, I'm really worried. Qi Zi was taken away by a strange man. Not only can I do nothing, I don't know whether he is a friend or an enemy. If she makes any mistakes, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life." Ling Shiqi felt overwhelmed.
explain.
Zhao Yunniang was also worried about Qi Zi. Although she was not as worried as Ling Shiqi, she knew her once and hoped that she would be well, so she could understand Ling Shiqi's mood at this time.
"I understand how you feel, so you should have a good rest and take good care of yourself before you can go find Qi Zi, right?"
Ling Lizhen rushed out from the door and said: "Cousin, what are you talking about? Why are you helping me to find that woman? She is the only one in my heart. Aren't you sad at all?"
"Lizhen, please stop talking." Zhao Yunniang said with a tearful tone.
"I have to say, brother, you have gone too far. My cousin has not slept for two nights to take care of you. You are still thinking about other women. Are you worthy of your cousin? Why do you never think about her, cousin?
She is a human being and is sentient, so don't think her feelings don't exist, okay?" Ling Lizhen said these words angrily and glared at Ling Shiqi fiercely.
Ling Shiqi looked at Zhao Yunniang and said, "I'm sorry, Yunniang, I understand what you mean, but now I really don't know how to handle the relationship between us."
"Cousin, please stop talking. I understand. You are injured now, so don't get too excited." Zhao Yunniang hurriedly changed the subject with mist in her eyes.
Then he continued: "Lizhen, your brother is injured, please stop irritating him."
Ling Lizhen pouted and went out. Zhao Yunniang supported Ling Shiqi and said, "Cousin, let me help you go back to your room to rest."
Ling Shiqi nodded guiltily and said, "Thank you, Yun Niang."
As winter approaches, the last snow falls in the afternoon. Qizi gets up and opens the window to admire the snowy scenery. The white snow falls one after another. Half an hour later, silver can be seen everywhere in the garden. The lake can be seen through the sparse branches.
It's so crystal clear, I really want to sit by the lake.
It's amazing. I feel so calm now, as calm as the lake not far away, pure and quiet. A few winter birds stopped on the top of the pavilion by the lake and kept chirping. It seems that they
I like this season very much. Now that I think about it, I like it too. A bad mood can be attributed to the bad weather, and all my unhappiness can be attributed to nature. Nature is silent and will not argue with you.
It will silently accept its declaration, and how many people will face it with gratitude?
The snow continued to fall, and no one knew how much more it would fall. Xuan Yi heard from Defu that Qi Zi had been in the room all day. He opened the door with some worry, saw no one on the bed, and looked at the window. It was so cold.
That day, she was still leaning in front of the window wearing only her underwear. Xuan Yi looked at the frail figure like a willow with some reproach, took off the thick mink shawl on her body, walked behind her, and gently put it on
Go up. Qi Zi heard the sound of the door opening just now. The person who didn't make a sound must be Xuan Yi. She didn't turn sideways or look back. She was looking out the window at the scenery of snow blowing in the wind.
Xuan Yi was surprised that Qi Zi didn't reject him at this time, but stood there obediently wearing his cloak. This move surprised him a little. He tried to hug Qi Zi from behind, but Qi Zi didn't want to resist anymore, because
No matter how much she resisted, it was in vain. Xuan Yi hugged her tightly, sucking deeply the faint aroma of Qi Zi. Qi Zi stretched out her hand, and a few flakes of snow fell into her hand, which was instantly melted by her body temperature.
There was a slight chill in the water, and then snow fell on his hands. Xuan Yi raised his hand and took Qi Zi's hand back to his chest. What he felt was - cold, his hands were as cold as ice.
He held it tightly, trying to drive away the chill as soon as possible.
