Chapter 186: yesterday

Views:

Li Wei washed his head, but still couldn't take a shower, so he had to wipe his body with hot water and change into clean clothes. The dirty clothes were washed and dried on bamboo poles by the river.

She was wiping the water from her hair with a dry towel. There was no electricity, so the crew had candles, so it wouldn't be so dark and unclear.

The wind blowing on the corridor was really cool, so Li Wei sat on the beauty's back and waited for her hair to dry.

"I can't find you anywhere, why are you sitting here?"

Li Wei didn't need to look back to know who came from this voice. Li Wei sat motionless and did not answer his words. Zhao Qian shamelessly sat down next to Li Wei. Li Wei quickly moved to the side, widening the distance between the two.

Zhao Qian thought to himself that the two of them slept on the same bed last time, and now it will be back to before. Zhao Qian raised his eyes to look at the sky. There were no stars in the dark sky, and the air was a little stuffy.

"It is expected to rain heavily again tomorrow, and we will probably not be able to get out if we are stuck here."

Li Wei said seriously: "Crow Zui, can you say something nice?"

"The conclusions I draw from my daily observation of the celestial phenomena are not just arbitrary remarks. How often have I ever made unreliable remarks in front of you, the Queen Mother?"

Li Wei had no intention of talking to him, but silently looked at the corner of the opposite corner, wondering if her sixth brother had also sat in her position and read a book or meditated.

She rarely thinks about Daqi now. Maybe it's because she visited places related to Sixth Brother. Being in this antique building and the atmosphere, it's hard to avoid seeing things and missing people.

While she was deep in thought, Zhao Qian suddenly said, "Did you have a brother who came here to study?"

Li Wei glanced at Zhao Qian in surprise, and then said after a while: "How do you know?"

"How could I not know? I know everything about you very well."

"You must have inquired about me so clearly in order to get rid of me quickly. I didn't expect that the regent's hatred for me is really deep."

Zhao Qian smiled and said, "Am I asking about you because I hate you?"

"Even if it's not hate, it's ill-intentioned."

Zhao Qian thought that no matter what he said, Li Wei would not believe it, so it was better not to defend herself, but he still wanted to tell Li Wei that his friendship for her happened to be the opposite of hatred.

"Your sixth brother is a talented man. He entered the Hanlin Academy to watch politics at a young age through his own efforts. I even drank with him. He is quick-thinking and daring to take action. He is indeed an outstanding person. Your Li family As long as he is here, the Li family will not fall."

Li Wei sneered when he heard this: "You tried every means to kill me, but will you spare the Queen Mother's family and let the relatives grow up? Isn't this a joke? Brother Six will eventually be deeply implicated because of me. Li The whole family will only suffer misfortune. Now that I think about it, I have failed my parents' high expectations, and I have also failed the entrustment of the late emperor and my sister." As he spoke, the little anger in Li Wei's heart was aroused again.

Li Wei reached out and grabbed Zhao Qian's collar and asked, "Why do you want to destroy everything about me?"

Zhao Qian said: "It's my fault for not protecting you mother and son."

Although Li Wei gritted her teeth in anger, she still couldn't do anything to Zhao Qian. She finally let go of Zhao Qian's collar with a look of helplessness on her face.

"Forget it, the account between us is a confused one and cannot be settled clearly. I shouldn't dwell on the past anymore. Here I have my own family again and a new career. I'm not that The Queen Mother who is trapped in Chongqing Palace can still do what she likes, realize her own value, and find a way forward, so that she will not be unable to move forward in a hopeless life. "

"Are you doing well now?"

"Well, thanks to your care, it's not too bad."

Li Wei had just washed his hair, and the fragrance from his hair drifted into Zhao Qian's nose along the wind. A gentle sniff revealed the sweet fragrance of jasmine, so fragrant.

Li Wei had no intention of staying here for a long time and stood up to leave, but Zhao Qian suddenly said: "What shampoo did you use, Queen Mother? It smells so good."

Li Wei gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Prince Regent, please pay attention to your identity!" After saying that, he turned around and walked to the other side, and soon the figure disappeared into the vast night.

Lao Bao, who was smoking in a corner, was full of doubts. He overheard the conversation between the two, but there were many things he didn't understand. However, there were two titles that he understood clearly: the Queen Mother and the Regent. Are these two people reading a script

Although the academy is not big, it has many rooms. Li Wei can finally stay in a room by himself. Although there is no bed, the ground has been cleared, so we can just stay one night and go out tomorrow. She used her backpack as a pillow and her thin blanket as a quilt. He spent the night lying on the ground. Li Wei, who was extremely tired, fell asleep quickly.

"Awei, this time I came back and brought you a soil instrument, and asked the maid to deliver it to your room."

"Brother Six, are you still leaving when you come back this time?"

"Of course I have to leave. I have to leave after the Chinese New Year. I won't leave until I return from my studies."

Dreaming about Sixth Brother, Li Wei turned over and heard a rustling sound coming from the tiles above his head. It looked like it was raining again. Zhao Qian was right. Now she could only pray that the rain wouldn't be too heavy. She didn't want to be trapped here.

When the light poured into the house through the wooden window, Li Wei sat up and looked at the time. It was already eight o'clock in the morning. Remembering that I might have some tasks today, I hurriedly grabbed a few handfuls of hair, sorted my things and stuffed them into my bag.

He took off the latch and opened the door, only to see Zhao Qian standing guard outside the door. I don't know when he stood here. Li Wei glanced outside. It was raining lightly now. It would be better if the rain stopped soon.

"Get up, I have something to eat here, take it and eat it." Zhao Qian said and took out a well-packaged bun and a small carton of milk.

Li Wei was surprised, but instead of picking up what Zhao Qian handed him, he said, "I have it in my bag."

"What you have is yours, keep it and eat it later." Zhao Qian insisted.

Li Wei wanted to say something, but she saw Lao Bao coming over. She didn't want anyone to misunderstand, so she hurriedly took it and said "thank you" in a hurry.

When Lao Bao saw Zhao Qian, he nodded and said hello to Zhao Qian. Zhao Qian shook hands with Lao Bao in a decent manner, then turned and left.

Li Wei looked at the annoying rain and frowned: "Can we leave today?"

"It depends on the weather, but the things we bring are limited. If we are trapped for a long time, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient." Although Lao Bao was confused about the relationship between Zhao Qian and Li Wei, he knew that he should not ask questions that should not be asked in this industry. He spoke casually, so even though he was curious, he didn't say anything in the end.
