It is already late autumn, and the grass and trees are beginning to wither. The trees in the Qi family's mansion have begun to fall leaves. The fallen leaves are blown by the wind, spinning and falling to the ground, and are scattered randomly on the road. Now, there are no trees in the Qi family's mansion.
There were several servants, so no one cleaned these fallen leaves.
Shuangxi and Shen Bingxian came to Qi Mansion together.
The third princess Xu Shi felt that Qi Han was already a turtle in the urn, so she took much less precautions against Qi Mansion. Shuangxi and Shen Bingxian walked along the way and only saw a few guards at the entrance of the mansion.
Qi Han was not in the yard at this time. Shuangxi looked at Qi Han's closed door and frowned slightly.
Shen Bingxian said to Shuangxi at this moment: "Xi'er, go and meet Qi Han. I'm right outside. If anyone comes, I will come in and call you."
Shuangxi nodded, very grateful to Shen Bingxian for his understanding.
The door was ajar and not locked. Shuangxi pushed the door open gently and walked in.
Qi Han was sitting next to the table at the moment, his eyes far away, and he didn't know what to think about. He didn't even notice that someone was coming into the room, until the footsteps of Shuangxi entering the room alerted him, and Qi Han suddenly came back to his senses.
Come.
When Qi Han saw that Double Happiness was coming, he was slightly startled, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
We haven't seen each other for a few days, but Qi Han's face is paler than before, and his expression is also much slumped. Shuangxi can clearly feel that this is not Qi Han deliberately pretending to deceive the third princess, but Qi Han's
There is indeed something wrong with my body.
When Shuangxi saw Qi Han like this, he felt sad. He took a step forward, but then he didn't dare to step forward anymore. He stood not far away from Qi Han and called softly: "Brother Qi..."
"Xi'er..." Qi Han returned, his voice a little hoarse.
I don't know why, but Shuangxi's eyes felt a little sore and her eyes turned red.
Qi Han was a little panicked. He quickly stood up and stretched out his hand to wipe Shuangxi's tears. He asked with some distress: "Xi'er, what's wrong with you? You're so good, why are you crying?"
Perhaps it was because Qi Han had not been in good health recently, and because the third princess forced him to go to the princess's house, he was heartbroken again. Therefore, his body was a little weak, and his hands, which were originally warm, were a little cold at this time.
The cold hand pressed against Shuangxi's face, which made Shuangxi a little uncomfortable. But the more this happened, the more comfortable Shuangxi felt.
Shuangxi bit her lip to stop her tears. She also wanted to throw herself into Qi Han's arms and cry bitterly to vent her grievances, but she couldn't do it now. Qi Han already had a lot on his shoulders.
We can't let Qi Han worry about him anymore.
At this time, what she wanted to do was not to add a brick to Qi Han's shoulders, but to help Qi Han endure what he had to endure.
Shuangxi tried her best to give Qi Han a big smile, and said to Qi Han: "One day is like three autumns after not seeing you. I miss you a little."
When Qi Han heard this, he was slightly startled. He had always known that Shuangxi had him in his heart, but Shuangxi rarely said such straightforward words to him to express his feelings. When he heard this today, he felt a little bit in his heart.
Surprise and joy.
Qi Han stretched out his hand, took Shuangxi into his arms, and hugged her tightly. He didn't know how long he could hold Shuangxi like this, or whether he would have the chance to hold her like this in the future...
For a long time, Qi Han let go of Shuang Xi, and the two began to look at each other in silence, neither of them willing to speak about the matter that both of them knew well.
Shuangxi couldn't help it anymore. She looked directly at Qi Han and said in a calm tone, but did not allow Qi Han to refute: "I know everything. The third princess wants you to stay in the princess mansion."
Qi Han's body trembled slightly. He had already told Liu Yi not to tell Shuangxi, lest Shuangxi would do something stupid. He didn't expect that Shuangxi would find out so quickly.
Qi Han stood up straight, and all that frailty was gone. He seemed to have become the arrogant little general in bright clothes and an angry horse again. He just heard him say loudly: "I, Qi Han, would rather be broken into pieces than be made whole!"
Throughout my life, I will never let down my Qi family’s family tradition, never let down my heart, and never let down Xi’er’s affection!”
Qi Han said firmly, which made Shuangxi feel sour. A kind of overwhelming anger that she had never experienced before rose in Shuangxi's heart. She would never give in like this, absolutely not!
Shuangxi held Qi Han's hand and said seriously to Qi Han: "Brother Qi, if you want your ministers to rebel, they have no choice but to rebel!" At this time, he had no choice but to fight hard and directly overthrow the rule of the Anqing Dynasty.
Only then can she and her family be completely together.
What Shuangxi said was not empty talk. Emperor Anqing was fatuous, the three princesses were extravagant and licentious, and the whole court was full of unhealthy tendencies. Even when there was a flood in Qingshan County at that time, the court did not necessarily allocate funds for disaster relief.
The people of the Anqing Dynasty have long been miserable due to heavy taxes and corvee. The entire Anqing Dynasty is now like a huge bubble. It looks very eye-catching, but with a little force, this bubble can be burst.
.
In addition, the Qi family has made many military exploits, and General Qi is very prestigious in the army. If he raises his arms, he should be answered by hundreds of people.
Qi Han was speechless. The Qi family has been a loyal minister for many years. To be honest, it would be a bit difficult for him to give up his persistence for many years. Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism is Qi Han's belief!
Of course Shuangxi knew what Qi Han was thinking, so he said softly: "Brother Qi, I know that you don't want the lives of all people to be devastated because of the war you provoked. However, have you ever thought about what would happen if you let the stupid emperor and the princess go?
If we act recklessly and persecute loyal people, won't more people die?"
"To be honest, I want to be honest, not because I have any lofty ideals in my heart, nor do I want to save the people from the fire and water. My heart is very small, and it is already full if I can accommodate you. It cannot accommodate this country. I just want to protect it.
You, I just want to decide your own destiny, instead of being humiliated and manipulated in life... But what I think does not conflict with brother Qi Han's idea of defending his family and country. If the time comes, I stand on that.
It will definitely be a blessing for the people to have another person!" Shuangxi said with sincere affection.
Qi Han looked at this little woman who seemed to have a very different stool, and felt very deeply in her heart. The double happiness in the past was all calm and calm, just like the external things had nothing to do with her. She didn't fight or fight, she just wanted to be quiet.
Live your own life.
But now Shuangxi has become much more aggressive. Qi Han knows that such a change is not what Shuangxi wants. All of this was forced out by the third princess. A woman like Shuangxi, although she seemed to be in the past,
She may seem weak and weak, but she is the strongest. At this time, she will certainly not give in to power easily.
Qi Han looked deeply at Shuangxi and said to Shuangxi, "I will consider it carefully."
Shuangxi knew that Qi Han needed to be alone and think quietly at this time, so he did not force Qi Han to give him an answer immediately, so he left Qi Mansion.
The two days passed like this. Shuangxi thought that Qi Han should have figured it out, so he changed into men's clothes and wanted to see Qi Han again.
Who knew, before I even went out, I was stopped by someone.
It was said that the emperor had a decree for Shuangxi to come to see him.
Although it was said that Shuangxi had turned against her, she could not make any move at this time, so she quickly changed her clothes and followed the eunuch leader into the palace. Shen Ziyan and others were at home, but at this time, the emperor did not summon them.
They had no choice but to wait.
I don't know why, but halfway through, Shuangxi suddenly felt frightened and had a bad premonition.
"Stop the sedan!" Shuangxi suddenly shouted loudly.
"Mrs. Xi, the emperor has a decree that you must enter the palace!" the eunuch's sharp voice sounded.
Shuangxi was slightly startled after hearing this. She just called for the sedan to stop, and she didn't say anything about not entering the palace. How could the eunuch say such a sentence? Could it be that he knew that he was not willing to enter the palace?
An idea flashed in Shuangxi's mind, and at this moment, he suddenly understood what was going on! That was, there must be nothing good going on when he entered the palace this time, so the eunuch leader was afraid that he would not go!
After Shuangxi figured this out, he was about to open the door of the carriage and said sternly to the eunuch leader: "I want to go back to my house first!"
The eunuch sneered. Shuangxi felt something hit him. Then he became dizzy and lost consciousness.
In the evening, news came out in the palace that Xi'er had died of illness in the palace.
Xifu.
Several men, including Liu Yi, were feeling cold all over.
Quanzi said angrily: "It's a joke. Xi'er was fine when he went there, how could he suddenly die of illness?" As he spoke, Quanzi's eyes turned red.
In comparison, Shen Ziyan and Su Yu were much calmer. Su Yu glanced at Quanzi and said to Quanzi: "Okay, stop crying, Xi'er is not dead."
"Then...bad news has come from the palace..." After hearing Su Yu's words, Quanzi didn't want to believe that Xi'er was gone, but the news was really true.
"Where is the corpse? If a person dies, there must be a corpse, right? Xi'er is not from the palace. If he really went there, the body should be carried out of the palace immediately to avoid defiling the palace." Su Yu said through gritted teeth.
.
Su Yu thought of this, and of course the mastermind behind the scenes also thought of it. Just as he was talking, someone walked in carrying a man covered with white cloth.
Shen Mo screamed and rushed over.
Including Shen Ziyan, who refused to believe that Shuangxi had gone, Su Yu and others also gathered around. Although everyone knew that Xi'er was just hidden by someone with ulterior motives, they... were still a little worried about this matter.
,it is true.
Shen Bingxian leaned down and slowly opened the white cloth.
If you look carefully, you will find that Shen Bingxian's hands are trembling... (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
