From the bottom of his heart, he never thought about becoming a sworn brother. Even if he was a "sworn brother", it was just to get closer and see him a few more times.
Who wants to go from "husband" to step-brother
I don’t want to, even if it means separation between life and death, I don’t want to!
However, he was actually looking forward to it, waiting for her to say it!
If you say it out loud, you will definitely agree.
Even if he is a "sworn brother"!
Even if it's somewhat related.
However, she remained silent for a long time, not even saying "sworn brother"!
King Qin stood up. Because he stood up too hastily, the skewed Dongpo scarf wrapped around his head fell down and fell to the ground. Hua Rong was startled and looked at the abrupt top of his head. King Qin, when did he become The Jurchens
King Qin was very embarrassed. He immediately picked up the turban on the ground and covered it on his head randomly, looking around for fear of being seen by Hua Rong. Hua Rong had never seen him like this before. He was squirming and thinking. , suddenly laughed: "I saw it..."
King Qin was even more depressed and a little angry: "I... Damn, these golden dogs with braided hair are really ugly..."
Hua Rong found it even more ridiculous. Such King Qin looked really strange. She couldn't help laughing, but her heart was extremely sad and her eyes couldn't help but turn red. She was even more sad than seeing him injured: "Are you doing this just to steal Ganoderma lucidum..."
He didn't say anything, and just kept wrapping his turban randomly, making it a mess.
Hua Rong whispered: "I'll give you a package..."
He was startled and stayed still.
"Qin Shangcheng, let me pack it for you..."
He couldn't help but sat down next to her again and lowered his head.
Hua Rong took off the messy headscarf, unfolded it, and remade it into a crown, before bandaging it. Her gentle hands touched the top of her head, arranging the scattered hair one by one.
No matter how rough and powerful the King of Qin is, he still thinks of the saying "a married couple with hair".
A married couple!
Is this the feeling between husband and wife
He sat tremblingly, not daring to move, for fear that if he moved, he would wake up from a dream. This was the first and last time that she would show herself the tenderness of a wife like this. Even on the island, she would be forced to do it all day long. She had never done such a thing when she was sleeping in the same bed with him.
Never!
Wife, I have been to the church myself, and I have married a wife from another family.
Life is so short.
One second is so long.
He wanted to say something, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was surprised: "Girl, did you know? This bastard Qin Hui has become the Minister of Rites..."
"I know. Alas..." She sighed, "The officials were deceived by him again and actually granted him such a high position."
King Qin made a chirp and said, "Zhao Deji is such a foolish king. Along the way, I heard that Qin Hui was actually compared to Su Wu. Haha, I really laughed out loud."
"Well, I have already written a letter to tell His Majesty the truth about the faces of Qin Hui and his wife that I saw in the Kingdom of Jin. I don't know if he believes it or not..."
King Qin's expression changed: "Girl, did you really write a letter?"
"Yes. I guess it has been sent to the capital long ago."
King Qin was speechless for a long time, and then he said after a while: "Girl, once a person like Qin Hui comes to power, he must first eradicate his dissidents. You and Yue Pengju know his details..."
Why doesn't Hua Rong know how powerful this is? However, it is simply impossible for her to endure it, protect herself wisely, and not provoke Qin Hui.
King Qin added: "It doesn't matter, Yue Pengju has resigned anyway. Girl, please remember that from now on you two will only dress and eat, and mind your own business. Take whatever rewards Zhao Deji has and don't refuse..."
"Um."
"Getting dressed and eating" is naturally a good way to save life in these troubled times. Hua Rong sighed and said no more.
She only agreed to reassure him, but how could King Qin really feel relieved? Even that gentle hand flying over my head couldn't suppress my worries.
After a while, he suddenly remembered something: "Girl, today is your birthday?"
"ah?"
He was so excited that he couldn't speak. He had come all this way for her birthday, but he almost forgot.
In the chaos of war, Hua Rong never celebrated his birthday, and living here with Yue Pengju, he didn't know the passage of time, and even forgot things like "birthday". King Qin, how did he know
In the tip of her nose, there was the fragrance of autumn osmanthus. It was a faint fragrance of the south. It could not be smelled on this border. However, Hua Rong felt that the fragrance was getting stronger and stronger. She saw King Qin coming from his arms. I took out a large oil paper bag and opened it, and the scent of sweet-scented osmanthus cake hit my nostrils.
"Girl, here you go."
Hua Rong's eyes glanced at the battered pastry, and he sighed softly. He didn't know where King Qin got this thing from.
He stopped talking. After a while, he heard Hua Rong's gentle voice: "It's better now. Haha, others won't be able to tell."
He was about to blurt out: "Girl, you will wear a headscarf for me every day from now on..." The words reached his throat, but were suppressed by the pungent smell of blood.
He just sat there, motionless.
Both of them were silent for a long time before Hua Rong raised his head.
King Qin also raised his head and looked at her absently. Although she had been recuperating these days, she was already like a feather, a pure white feather, soft and no longer vulnerable to a blow.
Just like a flower, if there is even the slightest wind or rain, it will wither immediately and completely.
Hua Rong was about to say something, but King Qin spoke before her and said lightly: "Girl, take care, I'm leaving..."
Hua Rong just hummed.
King Qin raised his legs and started to leave. Hua Rong suddenly stopped him: "Qin Shangcheng..."
He stopped and didn't look back, but his heart was beating so hard that it was about to burst. Girl, what is she going to say? I really want to hear her say something, anything, as long as she talks to myself!
Moreover, there are still many things that I have not told her!
There are many things I have seen and heard about the Kingdom of Jin, about Jin Wushu, about Xiao Lu Wenlong, and many interesting things that I want to tell her. Just like when I was on the warship in the naval battle, when I was hungry and thirsty, I told her many stories, and she listened to them with great interest. .
However, what she said had nothing to do with all the tender past events.
"Qin Shangcheng... you gave me a slap in the face and brought you Ganoderma lucidum. The grudge between us has been settled..."
King Qin's back suddenly trembled, and a certain arrow wound affected the wound, as if it was about to tear a rib on his chest into pieces.
"Qin Shangcheng, don't come to me again, and live your happy life on the island..."
Hua Rong spent a lot of effort to finish these words, and her heart felt like it was being pulled by something. It wasn't the Ganoderma lucidum stick, nor was it the slap he slapped... No, it was nothing! It’s just a breakup! A kind of clean break!
There is so much need to "break it off" between myself and King Qin!
Being a sworn brother and being a friend are both hypocritical and cruel!
Regardless of whether he is a "sworn brother" or a "friend", they are all putting a rope around his neck. I can no longer accept any benefits from him.
Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain.
Otherwise, you will be called a fool and you will never have fun in your life.
Her voice was a little ethereal: "Qin Shangcheng, you can rest assured that Pengju will take care of me in the future. There are many good women in the world, so you must not miss me anymore... You go find another woman, start a family and start a career... Don't remember me. … forget me… "
King Qin's chest rose and fell sharply. He had already understood this and had given up on it long ago. However, when he heard her say it, he still couldn't help but feel miserable.
I don’t want to hear this, not at all!
Even if he is a "sworn brother", it is better than being cut off in two!
Even if he is a step-brother!
He suddenly turned around: "Girl, you said you wanted me to be your adopted brother!"
twice! He made this request twice.
Hua Rong closed her eyes, held back the tears that were about to fall, and said firmly:
"No!! I have no relatives and I don't want to have any more sworn brothers!"
For a while, the only thing that could be heard in the room was King Qin's heavy breathing. Hua Rong stared at his back closely. The lights on the table seemed to be automatic without wind, with a chill to the bones.
King Qin stepped out of the door and walked away with long strides.
Hua Rong never called him again.
At the door, Yue Pengju had been standing quietly.
King Qin walked by and looked at him, and he looked at him too.
King Qin suddenly saw the scarf on his head. It was the same style as his own. It was obvious that the girl had bandaged it for him every day.
Yue Pengju also saw that this reckless pirate looked completely different at this moment.
The two looked at each other and looked away at the same time. King Qin felt heartbroken and turned around to run away. He ran too fast and staggered. His whole figure was as dark as the night.
When Yue Pengju saw his back completely disappearing into the night, he sighed deeply in secret, then closed the door and slowly walked towards his wife.
His eyes met his wife's, but he saw her eyes were full of tears. He walked over quickly, gently leaned against her, sat down next to her, and said softly: "When it is cooked, I will give it to you..."
She nodded and slowly lay down.
Yue Pengju sat next to her, looking at the unfinished chess game. He reached out and put away the chess pieces, only to see a box of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes beside the table.
He smiled and said, "Are you sleepy?"
She hummed and held Yue Peng's hand tightly.
Yue Pengju stretched out his arms to hug her and whispered softly in her ear: "Cry if you want to..."
She couldn't bear it any longer, and fell into Yue Pengju's arms, bursting into tears. After crying for a while, the only sound left was sobbing. Yue Pengju took the handkerchief, gently wiped her tears, and said softly: "You must It will be fine."
Of course I have to get better, otherwise I will be sorry for the Ganoderma lucidum that King Qin sent me all the way.
There was a knock at the door, and it was the voice of the guard: "Mr. Yue, the medicine is ready."
Yue Pengju immediately went to pick up the Ganoderma lucidum.
Hua Rong watched the bowl of concoction brought to her, and couldn't help but shed tears. She picked up the bowl, ignored the slight soup, raised her head, and drank it all.
Yue Pengju laughed: "It's better now, it will definitely get better."
Hua Rong leaned in his arms and said nothing. Yue Pengju gently stroked her hair, feeling really uncomfortable as never before.
