"If you don't want to say it, let me guess. Is he a spy sent by the Great Zhou? Is he using Tuoba Ling to force the Northern Qiang to surrender?"
Tuoba Xiao stared at Liu Qiaoer with his beautiful peach blossom eyes. If his tone had not been too sharp, Liu Qiaoer would have almost thought that he liked her when she looked at those affectionate eyes.
Liu Qiaoer was in a bad mood. She looked at Tuoba Xiao deeply, did not answer, but poured herself a cup of tea and took a sip.
Tuoba Xiao continued, "No, if he was a spy, he would have come long ago, and he wouldn't have waited until Tuoba Ling died before showing up."
"You said you were the one who treated him, and I believe it, because I killed him with my own hands. As for how he came back to life, I should ask you."
When Liu Qiaoer rescued Tuoba Ling, he was indeed dead, but he had just died. No one knew how Du Zixu managed to keep him alive.
After all, the technology a hundred years later was more advanced than hers. She used the medical equipment in the space to pull Tuoba Ling back from death.
People can be saved, but their brains... are innate.
Tuoba Ling doesn't look very smart, which might be the reason why Du Zixu chose him.
In any case, unifying the country is actually a good thing. At least for many years to come, everyone will know that it is just one country and there will be no more wars.
Seeing that Liu Qiao'er still said nothing, Tuoba Ling sneered and slowly walked down from the **.
"You saved his life, but he treated you like this. I don't mind that, but you still have your lover to stay with you forever. Now, your lover wants to marry someone else, aren't you anxious?"
Liu Qiaoer was anxious, but what could she do? After leaving the space, she found that she was nothing but her medical skills.
I can't even walk into this small yard.
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't sow discord. I'm not familiar with Tuoba Ling."
Unexpectedly, Tuoba Xiao took two steps holding the edge of the bed, walked towards Liu Qiaoer's bed, sat down next to Liu Qiaoer, and squeezed her to the side.
"You also saved my life. If I tell you I can take you away from here, will you come with me?"
Liu Qiaoer tilted her face slightly and looked him up and down. He was really handsome.
Good-looking men have an innate advantage, which is that it is easy for people to trust him. Even if Tuoba Xiao said now that he wanted to marry Liu Qiaoer, Liu Qiaoer would believe it.
But at this moment, Liu Qiaoer had no intention of appreciating his extremely handsome face.
"When they came today, you pretended... But you are not completely well yet, how are you going to leave? What are you going to do after you leave?"
Liu Qiaoer poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.
Unexpectedly, Tuoba Xiao did not take it with his hand, but stared at Liu Qiaoer with his peach blossom eyes.
"Feed me."
He took a sip gently from Liu Qiaoer's hand, and for a moment the room was filled with a hint of charming medicinal smell.
Liu Qiaoer suddenly smiled: "Beauty trap... It's not impossible, but I'm afraid that you will kill me after you take me away."
Tuoba Xiao smiled gently, leaned his elbows on the backrest, and chuckled twice.
"I'm not as ungrateful as Tuoba Ling. I won't kill you. I'm just doing what I want to do."
Liu Qiaoer shook her head gently: "I know what you are going to do. I'm sorry, you are already a dead person, I can't let you leave, and I won't leave either."
There was a hint of coldness in Tuoba Xiao's affectionate eyes, but a nonchalant smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
"You're not going to keep me locked up like this for the rest of my life after you cure me, are you? Just the two of us, here... um... When I get better, we can do a lot of fun things."
As he spoke, Tuoba Xiao moved closer to Liu Qiaoer, and with his slender fingers, he gently scratched Liu Qiaoer's face and chin, making her feel numb and tingling.
Liu Qiaoer's heart beat faster because of his teasing.
"Who are you? You should be in the same group as Du Zixu. You don't belong to the Great Zhou, nor to the Northern Qiang. Could it be that you are from another country?"
"You saved Tuoba Ling because you wanted Northern Qiang to submit to the Great Zhou. What's next? All other countries around the country submit to the Great Zhou, so that the Great Zhou can unify the world. So, you will definitely go back. And who is the person who can make the Great Zhou unify the world?"
Tuoba Xiao thought about it carefully and said, "The Emperor of the Great Zhou is about to die, and the Third Prince is rebelling again, but he will definitely not succeed. The Crown Prince is incompetent and cannot defend the capital. At this time, a more powerful person must appear in the Great Zhou."
"Let me think about it. Could it be that the Ninth Uncle Zhao Ziyu, whom you saved? So, he is the future emperor of the Great Zhou, the one who will unify the world."
After listening to Tuoba Xiao's analysis, Liu Qiaoer broke out in a cold sweat.
He had clearly only said a few words to him, but he analyzed the whole thing so thoroughly, as if he was looking at the world from a God's perspective.
Yes, Liu Qiaoer and Du Zixu do not actually belong to any country, they belong to the future.
As for the purpose, Tuoba Xiao was right, to help the Great Zhou Dynasty unify the world.
This goal is difficult to achieve. Liu Qiaoer just wants to travel with the person she loves, but Du Zixu wants to correct history.
Historically, a few years later, Zhao Ziyu did unify the world.
Liu Qiao'er didn't say anything. Tuoba Xiao just knew from her shocked look that his guess was correct. He was also very shocked at the same time. Why did these people do this
Suddenly, Tuoba Xiao's mouth curled up coldly, revealing a disdainful smile.
"You guys really think you can control everything. You are too naive. Everything is subject to change."
Liu Qiaoer also agreed with what Tuoba Xiao said, but history cannot be easily changed.
Liu Qiao'er spent the next winter with Tuoba Xiao.
Tuoba Xiao would only wake up for a while at night, and was asleep the rest of the time.
Liu Qiaoer naturally knew that she had no freedom, so she used the excuse of buying medicine or seeing patients to gain a small amount of freedom.
She wants to leave.
But leaving is like ascending to heaven for her.
Because whenever she wanted to leave the yard, someone would follow her.
The little maid and two guards stared at her intently.
Liu Qiao'er was speechless. Princess Mingxin wanted to marry Lu Yunzheng, and the one who disagreed was Lu Yunzheng, not Liu Qiao'er.
It sounds as if now that Liu Qiao'er is gone, Princess Mingxin can marry Lu Yunzheng as she wished.
But two months have passed and Lu Yunzheng hasn't shown up yet. Liu Qiaoer's confidence is almost gone.
It was already the twelfth lunar month, and there were only three days left until the 18th. Even if Liu Qiaoer had wings, she could not fly to Mobei.
It was another snowy night. Without Lu Yunzheng, Liu Qiaoer was too lazy to even eat hotpot.
There was a small stove burning in the room, still emitting the aroma of medicine, and the dim light made people's shadows very long.
Liu Qiaoer was wearing a cloak and standing under the eaves. Beneath her calm appearance, she exuded a hint of sadness.
"Can't sleep?" Tuoba Xiao woke up again and stood behind Liu Qiaoer.
Liu Qiao'er did not look back, but just looked at the sky quietly. She did not know that Tuoba Xiao behind her was neatly dressed in a black nightgown, a white cloak, and his hair was tied up on top of his head.
"In three days, they will get married. I don't know whether he didn't come to find me or couldn't find me. I don't know what to wait for..."
Suddenly, Tuoba Xiao put his arm around Liu Qiaoer's waist and lightly jumped onto the roof.
"Since he's not coming, let's go find him."
