"I have a plan. If Qin Hui comes back, I will post his scandal among the people and tell the world about the scandal of this dog couple. In this way, people will be suspicious and rumors will spread, and he will always feel better..."
Hua Rong wanted to say hello, but held it back. Yue Pengju laughed and nodded.
King Qin secretly saw Hua Rong's expression of indifference, and thought to himself, you are ignoring me, and I am not looking for you. I am only discussing with this little brat Yue Pengju.
At this time, the food had been set, and Yue Pengju immediately said enthusiastically: "King Qin, let's eat first. It's getting late, so you can rest here tonight..."
"That's fine, I'm very hungry."
Yue Pengju looked at his wife, expecting that she would immediately order to prepare a room for King Qin, and would be as gentle and obedient as before, but he saw that her face was expressionless and her eyes were cold, and she just said lightly: "King Qin, let's go."
King Qin had made up his mind from last night that he would leave as long as he could protect her safety this time, and he found the news about Qin Hui along the way, so that he and the two of them could be on guard. However, after all, there was a faint desire in his heart, I was looking forward to it, especially when I saw her occasional smile when I walked in. Although it was not directed at me, I was secretly happy. I had a small hope in my heart. I just thought that as long as she is like this, as long as she doesn't fall out again, even if I narrowly escape death for her again, Even because of her, she would not hesitate to protect someone as disdainful as Zhao Deji.
But when he heard that Yue Pengju left him to eat, he greedily wanted to experience her tenderness and considerateness in serving him a meal again, even if it was the last time - that vaguely made him feel like she was his wife, like the luxury wish of a home. .But it is not the gentleness and kindness in my memory, but this coldness.
He felt a chill in his heart, coughed, and turned his eyes to look elsewhere.
Yue Pengju was slightly embarrassed and stunned when he saw his wife like this. Then he remembered that when King Qin came, Hua Rong did not greet him as before. He tried to say: "Everyone goes to eat first..."
Hua Rong was still indifferent and glanced at King Qin: "We only prepared meals for two people, there is nothing extra."
Yue Pengju was even more surprised. The food outside was plentiful, and one more King of Qin was enough. When did his wife become so stingy and tell lies? He couldn't help but secretly pulled his wife's hand: "Sister Seventeen..."
Hua Rong ignored him and shook off his hand. She didn't look at him, let alone King Qin. Her voice was cold: "I don't want to eat with outsiders. You have to eat by yourself."
King Qin only felt a chill from head to toe, piercing his heart, and then he understood that girl, she was completely cut off from him. King Qin could not stay any longer, his chest rose and fell sharply, and he said angrily: "Hua Rong, you too No need to be like this, I don’t care about your meal..."
She sneered and said nothing more.
King Qin turned around and left.
Yue Pengju was too embarrassed to ask him to stay again. It wasn't until he saw him walking out of the door that he turned his eyes to his wife and said in a deep voice, "What's wrong with you?"
"nothing!"
"The King of Qin also has good intentions. He has been very helpful to us. This time he sent us the news. Why can't he get a meal?"
She replied firmly: "I don't need his kindness, and I don't want to see him again, so why should I ask him to eat?"
Yue Pengju had never seen his wife so arrogant. He was stunned and said slowly: "The King of Qin has bad things, but he has been working hard these days..."
Hua Rong was suddenly furious, and the grievances and sadness that had been suppressed in his heart came out at the same time, and he said loudly: "What trouble does he have? He deserves it. He beat me until I can't have children. I don't look like a woman. He hangs around in front of me every day." , I hate him when I see him. Can’t I hate him? It’s your business to be tolerant and generous, General Yue, and it’s my business to hate him. Yes, I am so narrow-minded that I don’t want to work with him, nor do I want to. When I saw him, I didn’t even care about his news. He wanted to have dinner because of Zhao Deji, not me, so he asked Zhao Deji to invite him to dinner... "
Fortunately, Yue Pengju had already dismissed everyone and closed the door. Even if she was angry, her voice would be soft. However, the more she spoke, the more inappropriate she was. Yue Pengju and his wife had always loved each other, but they could not tolerate her being so indiscriminate and slightly disrespectful. He lost his anger and whispered: "The situation is tense now. King Qin is a pirate and can still take care of the overall situation. You..."
"Yes, I'm just not as good as a pirate. I don't want to take care of anything. You are men who do great things. You are of a high level, but I don't want to work with my enemies anymore... "
"King Qin is not an enemy!! Even if he did something, he was able to offset it with a narrow escape!"
"Offset? It's offset for you, but not for me. Of course you can still take concubines and bear children for you, but what about me? My life is ruined. Don't you want to have your own blood? You I can refuse to take concubines this year, and I can refuse to take concubines next year. What about ten years from now? I will become a sinner, a sinner who has cut off your incest, and is despised by you. I am old and have no other options... "
Without finishing her words, she turned around and rushed into the bedroom, slamming the door. When Yue Pengju went to push the door, he found that she had locked the door and could not push it open.
This was the first time the two had a nasty quarrel in more than ten years of knowing each other. Yue Pengju was so angry that he sat on a chair for a long time, not understanding what was going on. What drastic change had occurred and his wife suddenly became so abnormal
Weren’t things going well the past few days? She also made tea for King Qin, why did she turn against him today
As a soldier, he always believed that no matter whether he and his wife were together or apart, they were in the same mind and their love would never change. Only today did he realize that he had no idea what she was thinking.
She was unable to have children, but she never disliked her; taking concubines was even more groundless. Besides, she already had a lovely son, so what did it matter whether she could give birth to a child or not? He sighed, and suddenly remembered that his son was staying in the palace as a "hostage". Although he was not his biological son, Hua Rong had great affection for his son. She was probably worried about his safety and was emotionally disturbed.
Even so, aren't you worried? If Zhao Deji can be saved by sending troops in such a hurry, she can also save her son. There is no need for her to vent all her anger on King Qin!
After the food was put on the table for a long time, but no movement was seen, the guard came in and asked cautiously: "Sir, let's eat..."
He shook his head. He was originally hungry, but now he had no appetite at all. He just said: "You go and heat up the food first. Madam is not feeling well. I will wait for her to rest for a while and eat together."
"yes."
King Qin went out, maybe because he had the last night's experience, he was not surprised by Hua Rong's behavior, nor did he feel any greater sadness, but his heart truly died.
Liu Wu asked him: "Your Majesty, where are we going?"
"go back."
Uncle Yang has sent messages many times asking him to go back quickly. He thought that if he didn't go back, the minions would rebel.
Liu Wu hesitated: "What about Ma Su?"
"Now that Ma Su has entered the capital, he won't be able to get away for a moment. If he stays, he might be able to gain fame and wealth, and his talent and learning will not be in vain. He has a better future than being a pirate. Don't worry about him."
… …
Along the way, Liu Wu and Ma Su were as close as brothers. Thinking about this farewell, he didn't know when we would see each other again, but listening to King Qin's tone, he didn't dare to say anything else.
King Qin looked back at the dark night. This journey has been like a dream for ten years.
Seeing him like this, Liu Wu couldn't help it anymore and said angrily: "Mrs. Yue is also ruthless. Your Majesty narrowly escaped death for her, but she turned her back and refused to recognize him."
King Qin shook his head.
"Your Majesty, there are many good women in the world. If you go back to the island and immediately marry a wife and have children, why should you care about her? Such a heartless and unjust woman..."
King Qin interrupted him calmly: "She is not heartless!"
Liu Wu was startled.
"I bullied her many times and injured her. She just scolded me a few times, which can't be considered heartless."
Liu Wu disagreed: "She doesn't know good from evil at all."
"What do you know about me?"
Liu Wu was dissatisfied and did not dare to say anything more.
The King of Qin raised his whip and galloped forward, with Liu Wu following behind him. The two of them quickly disappeared into the night.
After running a distance, the horse was suddenly frightened and raised its hooves. Fortunately, King Qin reined the horse tightly before it could sit firmly and shouted: "Who is it?"
In the dark night, a ghost-like voice loomed, drifted and flickered: "King Qin, your Majesty has invited you."
King Qin was shocked and cursed: "Damn it, haven't I already finished your work for you? You still want to use me?"
"The Lord is not calling you, but inviting you."
"Don't go!"
"It's a good thing. It's only good for you and doesn't do any harm."
"Even if I go to heaven, I won't go, let alone that bitter cold place of yours. I can't stand the cold, so I won't go."
"It's better than heaven. It's not a long way to go to Beijing. It's not far ahead."
King Qin was shocked. That old monster Yelu Dayong actually arrived in Song Dynasty? One moment he was putting poison under He Ci's pillow, and the next moment he was in the Song Dynasty. What was his intention
It was already pitch dark.
Yue Pengju sat in the hall, without lighting the stove, and it was freezing. He had never had a dispute with his wife, and now for the first time, he didn't know what to do. Although he was annoyed that she was overbearing, this was not her temperament. , he felt strange, and didn’t know how to coax her. He didn’t know how long he had been sitting, and felt his legs and feet were numb, so he slowly stood up. He remembered that there was no stove in his wife’s room and she was always afraid of the cold, so he stood up and went again. Pushing the door. With this push, the door opened. I don't know when she removed the bolt.
He breathed a sigh of relief, ran to the bed, lit the lamp, and saw his wife lying on her side, covering her head with the quilt, her back to him. He didn't call her, but took the stove and lit it. After a while, there was a fire in the house. Some heat. Then he sat on the edge of the bed, gently lifted the quilt, exposed her head, and said softly: "Sister Seventeen, I'm so hungry..."
She still didn't speak.
He put his hand under her armpit, and she couldn't help but opened his hand bitterly: "You go to eat when you are hungry. Why are you harassing me..."
Finally spoke.
He chuckled, picked her up, and whispered in her ear: "How can I eat if you don't accompany me?"
