For several days, Xianxue had been living in a haze. Whenever she fell asleep, she would dream of the scene of two babies crying for their mother. She would wake up in the middle of the night every time. The only thing that comforted her was Helian Jingyun's complexion.
It's getting better and better, but I don't know when I will wake up one day.
"Xianxue!" A call interrupted Xianxue's thoughts, and a familiar figure came to Xianxue weakly. This long-lost voice and long-lost smile suddenly filled Xianxue's empty heart.
"Jingyun, you're awake!" Xianxue got out of bed excitedly. This kid must have come to find her as soon as he woke up, and she didn't even think about whether his body could bear it.
"Xianxue, you have lost weight." Helian Jingyun said with some distress.
"Sit down first, then run around when you wake up. Do you feel uncomfortable somewhere?" Xianxue asked worriedly.
"I'm fine. Look, I'm as strong as a cow now!" Helian Jingyun said with a smile.
He didn't expect that Xianxue would even find the Clay Bodhisattva who had disappeared for twenty years because of him. How could he not be moved? He really wanted to see the Clay Bodhisattva that was rumored to be miraculous by the world, but he wanted to see two people even more. Those two
A little baby that makes him feel uneasy even if he dies.
"Where are the gold and silver treasures?" Helian Jingyun asked lightly. Don't the two little babies love to sleep with their mother?
"They went to a place." Xianxue was afraid that Helian Jingyun would be sad because of this incident, so she didn't want to tell him for the time being.
"Where have you gone?" Helian Jingyun really couldn't think of any place that would be so attractive that two little children could leave their mother.
"Jingyun, don't worry about anything else for now. It's midnight, you go and rest first." Xianxue said softly. Helian Jingyun grinned and nodded.
Looking at Helian Jingyun's appearance, Xianxue breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the bed again. She didn't know how long it had passed, but just when she felt sleepy, she heard the housekeeper's urgent voice.
"President, President, Helian was shocked, he's gone!"
"What?! Where did he go?" Xianxue stood up immediately.
"He asked me if I knew where the young master and the young lady had gone. After I told him, he left immediately. I couldn't stop him," the housekeeper said truthfully.
"Confused! Why don't you think about how he can rest in peace and recuperate after telling him!?" Xianxue shouted angrily, but it was useless to talk more, so she had to find Helian Jingyun first.
All the shadows were dispatched, and the troops were divided into several groups to look for Helian Jingyun. He would not have gone too far dragging his injured body. Xianxue suddenly changed his route and headed north. Not long after walking, he found Helian Jingyun.
Xianxue immediately chased after Yun's figure.
"Jingyun, Ni Bodhisattva comes and goes without a trace. Unless he appears on his own, you won't be able to find him." Xianxue blocked Helian Jingyun's path.
"Get out of the way!" Helian Jingyun had never spoken to Xianxue in this tone.
"Helian Jingyun, please go back now!" Xianxue shouted angrily. If he makes any mistakes like this, wouldn't the gold and silver treasures stay with the Ni Bodhisattva for two years in vain?
"Xianxue, either let me find it, or let me die here!" Helian Jingyun was so decisive that there was no room for negotiation.
"If you want to look for her, wait until you are well enough to look for her!" Xianxue took a step back and stepped forward to support Helian Jingyun. Unexpectedly, he dodged away before she even touched the corner of his clothes.
"I know my body, and nothing will happen to me." After Helian Jingyun finished speaking, he disappeared into the night without looking back.
Watching Helian Jingyun slowly disappear from her sight, Xianxue's feet were as heavy as lead, so heavy that she couldn't lift them up. The sky slowly brightened, and Xianxue stood there letting the cold wind blow.
Holding her thin body, Yingyi and others chased here and gently stood behind Xianxue.
"Follow Helian Jingyun to prevent him from making any mistakes. If he wants to look for it, let him look for it!" After Xianxue said that, she flew up and headed towards the Five Nations Chamber of Commerce.
Helian Jingyun frantically dragged his seriously injured body around to search, even to the far north, but there was no trace of the three people including the Clay Bodhisattva and the Gold and Silver Treasure. He returned to his house dejectedly. It has been three days.
Still didn't say a word.
Xianxue knew that he was feeling sad, and so was she.
"Don't appear in my sight!" As soon as he arrived in Helian Jingyun's room, he heard his angry voice. This was treatment that Xianxue had never enjoyed before.
"Once the injury is healed, will you have the strength to lose your temper?" Xianxue asked with a smile. Helian Jingyun seemed to be fine.
"Are you willing to give it up? Don't you have a heart? Doesn't it hurt?" Xianxue was left speechless by the continuous questioning. "How dare you hand over two such young children to that Clay Bodhisattva! An old man, you don't know what to do."
What a waste of two treasures!" Helian Jingyun looked at Xianxue with accusing eyes. He finally spoke, but this was all he said.
"You know what? I would rather die than do this!" Helian Jingyun saw that Xianxue had no reaction, and his voice suddenly rose a few degrees.
"This is their own choice." Xianxue took a deep breath and said.
"Their own choice? Baili Xianxue, you are so good at shirking responsibilities!" Helian Jingyun felt uncomfortable, and he kept sarcastic and sarcastic at Xianxue.
"You don't want them to be hurt in the slightest, and they feel the same way about you." Xianxue said calmly. She believed that her children, with Ni Bodhisattva's love for them, they would not suffer much. On the contrary, this
It will also become the most important turning point in their lives! She has said long ago that the two little babies cannot always be chicks hidden under her wings. Sooner or later, they will flap their wings and fly!
Looking at Xianxue's calm eyes, without a trace of ripples, Helian Jingyun felt a sharp pain in his heart. She was too calm, so calm that it made people feel distressed! It was not that she was willing, but that she had no choice! Because of him, she sent him out.
I have two beloved children!
Helian Jingyun couldn't help but feel a sore nose. "I'm sorry." He pulled Xianxue into his arms, not giving her any chance to struggle. "Let me comfort you and let you lean on my chest for a while."
"When Jinbao Yinbao comes back, how about you ask them to recognize you as their godfather?" Xianxue leaned on Helian Jingyun's chest, listening to his steady heartbeat. After Jinbao Yinbao left, she felt no whereabouts.
It was as if I had suddenly found my way home.
Helian Jingyun held Xianxue's shoulders and looked at her face. She was not kidding!
"Xianxue, I will definitely treat them like my biological father." Helian Jingyun promised. He knew that Xianxue could make the two children recognize him as their godfather, which proved that she recognized herself from the bottom of her heart. This was her
The greatest trust, he dare not ask for more. In this life, his world will be heavily written with these three names that are more important than his life.
The north wind blew day and night, and heavy snow fell for three days. The snow kept rising and the weather was freezing. Xianxue, who had never been afraid of the cold, couldn't bear it. Helian Jingyun didn't know it was the third time.
When the heater was handed over many times, Xianxue gently took it and hugged it in her arms. The warm feeling went straight to her heart. No wonder the ladies in the city never left their arms with this thing in their arms after the winter.
Looking at the heater in her arms, Liu Su's figure suddenly appeared in Xianxue's mind. The coldness in her eyes could be compared with the weather outside. Didn't Liu Su want the lives of the three of them, mother and son? Why didn't he succeed last time?
Would she give up so easily? There has been no movement for so long, and the calmness gave her the illusion that the last assassination never happened!
"President." The butler's voice sounded outside the door, and at the same time there was the sound of someone stomping their feet in the cold.
Xianxue suddenly missed the modern mobile phone. If it was such a cold weather, just one phone call could solve everything. It was such a cold day and it was snowing heavily. It was probably not a small matter for the housekeeper to disturb her.
"President, Fuso suddenly stopped supplying coal to Soochow." The steward said with chattering teeth.
"What's going on? Doesn't the contract clearly state this year's supply volume and supply time?" Xianxue was a little confused. Could it be that Fusang wanted to stir up some trouble at this time?
Chu Qingyu's ascension to the throne broke the truce agreement between the five countries. However, since the treasury of each country was still abundant after so many years of peace, no one dared to be the first to start a war. I originally thought that this winter would be safe.
I spent a lot of time, but I didn’t expect that the calmness in front of me was just an appearance. There are always people who are eager to be the first to eat crabs.
"What's the response from Soochow?" Xianxue looked at the housekeeper and asked.
"I hope you can go there in person at Soochow." The housekeeper said softly, looking at the bad weather outside, he couldn't help but shrink back.
"This request is also reasonable." Xianxue took a deep breath. No matter what, as soon as the five countries are in peace, the five countries' Chamber of Commerce must perform its duties.
Among the five countries, only Soochow lacks coal resources and relies entirely on the supply of the other four countries. Although Western Chu, Shu, and Western Qin all have normal supplies, the most important thing is Fusang. The coal of Western Chu, Shu, and Western Qin
If the resources were stored in previous years, there would still be some surplus, but in recent years when the weather has been extremely cold in winter, they have been very nervous. This year, I am afraid they will have to make temporary purchases from Fuso.
"Xianxue, I don't think this matter is that simple, so I'd better consider it carefully." Helian Jingyun knew that Xianxue suspected that the person who shot a secret arrow at her when escorting the silver car for Xichu might be Fusang's auxiliary Wang Zongzheng Qishuo.
That's why he was particularly worried about Xianxue going.
While Xianxue was meditating, the announcement of the visit of the Sixth Prince of Soochow was suddenly heard. Didn't Soochow have already sent the news? Why did Qi Shengyue want to come in person? It seemed that she could not shirk it no matter what.
This time it’s time.
"Invite the Sixth Prince here." In such a cold weather, Xianxue really didn't want to go out. When she thought of Qi Chengyue's ice man, she couldn't help but want to shiver a few more times.
Qi Shengyue, wearing thin clothes, the same icy blue as always, made people feel refreshed at the first sight. He glanced at the two people in the room, ignored Helian Jingyun beside him, and sat directly next to Xianxue
.
Xianxue immediately felt a chill approaching, as if even the heater in her arms had lost its warmth. There was an expression in his eyes that she couldn't guess.
"I asked why my seventh brother-in-law has disappeared. It turns out he is hiding here." Qi Shengyue did not talk about coal. Instead, he suddenly said such a sentence, and Xianxue almost failed to keep up.
"Don't be related to me. I am no longer the prince of Shu. Besides, the seventh princess of Soochow has named the prince of Shu to marry, but it has nothing to do with me." Helian Jingyun said in a joking tone.
Qi Chengyue glanced at Helian Jingyun, and Helian Jingyun secretly cursed himself for being hopeless, but he actually wanted to tremble at the cold look in his eyes.
"Ignore the most beautiful woman in Soochow, it turns out that she already has a crush on her." Qi Shengyue obviously didn't want to end this topic, and his eyes turned to Xianxue again.
"The Sixth Prince came here in person, does he want me to go to Fusang?" Xianxue changed the subject before Helian Jingyun responded. Helian Jingyun was not Qi Chengyue's opponent in terms of scheming. What if he said something?
The difference can be expanded to affect the relationship between the two countries.
"Of course, I also hope that Chairman Baili can bring back to Soochow the 50,000 tons of coal that Fusang has owed since the beginning of winter." Qi Shengyue then retracted her gaze from Helian Jingyun and turned to Xianxue.
"Sixth Prince, you and I know very well what Zongzheng Qishuo's intentions are. Xianxue can only try her best."
Hui, not to mention her.
"I understand, but the eight-layer deposit paid by Soochow is still in Fusang's hands." Qi Chengyue seemed to have a smile on her lips, but when she looked carefully, she found nothing.
The half-smiling expression that faded away quickly made Xianxue feel that her hairs stood on end.
