Anxious and sad, Hua Rong suddenly stepped forward, grabbed his hand tightly, and said hurriedly: "Qin Shangcheng, I know you said this because you didn't want me to die. But I beg you, let Hu Is it okay to leave your head on?”
"Hua Rong, you are really wrong this time!" He looked at the festive atmosphere on the island and said calmly, "I got engaged before you came. I didn't know in advance that you would come, so naturally I wouldn't show it to you. .So, this time is not like before, as long as you ask me, I will agree. Because I have my own home, and I will have my own wife and children in the future. My obligation is to take care of them, not to take care of you and your son. You Son, you must take care of yourself!”
She gritted her teeth and was very sad and angry. Didn't she want to take care of her son? It's just that I can't take care of it at all.
"Since I agreed to get married, I won't be perfunctory. I can't destroy my alliance with Yelu Dayong for anything. Now, I urgently need his financial support. Moreover, his daughter is very beautiful, and I am very satisfied with it. My age is also Now that you are young, it is difficult to find such a satisfactory woman. Therefore, my island can no longer provide you with a refuge. By the way, I still have some friendship with the imperial navy stationed in front. If they learn that Yue Pengju’s son has escaped, At this point, if you ask more questions, I have to give you an explanation. This is actually not a safe place, and it is very inappropriate for your son to stay here. Hua Rong, you should find someone else... "
Hua Rong slowly let go of his hand, feeling cold all over. She raised her head to look at the sky in the distance, feeling dizzy. After a long time, she remembered one thing. That time Liu Wu came to her to ask for the medicine to give birth to a son, and said it was Qin. The king is getting married, and his wife will need it. That time of begging for medicine, coupled with the festive wedding ceremony that he saw before his eyes, was it a show? King Qin is really not acting!
She withdrew her gaze and stared at the man in front of her. His leopard-like eyes and deep wrinkles on his forehead, and then she realized - Qin Shangcheng, he is getting older. He is already past middle age. People of his age How can you demand a man not to get married and have children? How could it be
He has the right to have his own wife and children, and to have the family happiness he wants. He is right. Leaving the tiger head behind will indeed disturb him and leave him with a lot of trouble. Moreover, Zhao Deji may even send people to chase him. Killing, for him, indeed, there was no need to take this risk.
King Qin slowed down his tone: "I will prepare a generous reward for you. There will be a brave man under the heavy reward. You can find it slowly after you land. You can entrust your son to anyone among the people. It will not be a big problem. This way , your son will be truly safe and anonymous. By the way, you mother and son must be hungry and thirsty after traveling for so long, so go and drink some water first, and then talk after eating... "
Hua Rong slowly calmed down from the huge panic, wiped his eyes, and said calmly: "You don't need to worry."
At this time, the little guy who had just walked away strode back, holding a box in his hand and handed it to King Qin. King Qin took it, waved his hand, and the little guy retreated. King Qin opened the box, and it was full of things. Easy-to-carry gold leaf: "Hua Rong, this is the package I prepared for you mother and son..."
Hua Rong glanced at the box. The money was really generous, and what King Qin said was true. She shook her head: "Qin Shangcheng, thank you for your trouble. However, I have brought enough money, so I don't need it."
She glanced at her son who was picking up shells on the beach in front. He had already walked and crawled more than ten feet away. Liu Wu followed him and looked after him. He stretched his hands to the water's edge and giggled, as if he was picking up some small fish. shrimp…
"Hua Rong..."
She looked at him deeply: "In that case, Qin Shangcheng, I won't bother you anymore. Thank you."
She ran over and saw a colorful fish caught in her son's hand. She didn't know whether Liu Wu caught it for him or he caught it himself. The fish kept struggling in his hand and was slippery. He used both hands to fight for it. I held it tightly for fear of falling off, and it made me laugh non-stop because of the itch.
Hua Rong's heart felt like a knife, and she hugged her son. The child was suddenly hugged, and when she let go, the colorful sea fish fell on the beach, struggling and rolling. He was anxious and refused to leave, waving his little hands desperately : "Mom, fish... my fish..."
A faint fishy smell emitted from his palms in the wind. Hua Rong raised her sleeves to wipe his wet little hands that were stained with sand and fish scales, and said softly: "Son, we are going back, be good..."
"No, mom, my fish... fish... fish..." He struggled up from his mother's arms. Looking over his mother's shoulder, he saw a group of small turtles crawling on the beach in groups on the left. Lying on his back, he looked extremely interesting. He giggled, "Mom, I want that... I want that..."
"Hey, Hutou, we won't play anymore. It's getting late. If we play any more, we won't be able to hit the road in time. Listen to mom... we have to rush back to see my dad. If we wait too late, we might not be able to see him... Anyway, Hutou , let’s go back right away, mom really can’t bear to leave you... "
Liu Wu followed her, not knowing what she was talking about with King Qin, but he knew something was wrong. Although she was smiling, her expression was so sad and desperate. When he came back from Lin'an, he knew that Yue Pengju was in trouble, and he also vaguely guessed that Hua Rong was in trouble today. Unexpectedly, he came in a hurry and was about to leave in less than an hour.
"Mrs. Yue, it's getting late. We're on the road now. I'm afraid we won't be able to stay overnight. Why don't we set off tomorrow?"
"No need. I have to leave today."
She picked up her son and sped up. The child looked anxiously at the turtle getting farther and farther away from her, and cried loudly: "No, I won't go... Mom..."
He cried and yelled, but his mother's footsteps were so fast. He waved his little hands, desperately pulling his mother's hair that was blown by the sea breeze. Hua Rong didn't care about being pulled and hurt, and still strode forward. The little tiger head was anxious. Next, he grabbed harder and Hua Rong's hair was completely scattered, covering his eyes. Because he was walking so fast, he couldn't see clearly. He staggered and almost fell to the ground. A pair of hands held her firmly, and she He took a breath, stood firm, and saw the King of Qin.
King Qin stared at her. She was once such a delicate woman, but now her body was even more haggard, and the hands holding her son were showing faint veins, but she was so strong and stubborn. She was a mature woman, no longer seventeen. A year old little girl.
Time flies, and it turns out that it won’t be long before it’s another seventeen years.
When the little tiger saw his mother stop, new hope grew in his little heart. He let go of the hand that was tightly holding her mother's hair, turned his head and looked at the turtles behind him, and found that the group of little turtles were crawling over. He clapped his hands happily: "Mom , I want that... fish..." He only knew "fish" and thought those were all fish.
King Qin looked at the group of turtles, and then his eyes fell on his mother and son. Her steps were so tired, her expression was so tired, but her arms around her son were so strong.
"Hua Rong, actually you don't have to leave in a hurry. Leaving tomorrow won't delay anything for you. Even if you can bear it, can your son bear it? He is still a child, so young... "
She glanced at him and nodded, her expression very calm: "Qin Shangcheng, please take care of yourself."
Like the last words of farewell.
King Qin's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but stretched out his hand, but then retracted it. Hua Rong didn't notice his behavior and stopped staying. He only strode forward with his son in his arms.
Liu Wu was always surprised by her coming and going. He would never think that she came all the way here just to chat with King Qin. However, he could not ask more questions and could only accompany her forward.
King Qin watched Hua Rong go further and further, and he was about to board the ship. There, Liu Wu would personally drive the ship to send her out to meet Ma Chao and others waiting on the shore, and return to Lin'an.
From then on, it was a real farewell.
Liu Wu was asking her something, and she actually had a slight smile on her face. The evening breeze blew up, blowing her messy hair into pieces, revealing such a haggard face.
"Mom... Mom..." Little Hutou's voice was still crying, and he was still thinking about the turtle. He looked far away in this direction, waving his little hands... Hua Rong seemed to ignore him, and just hugged him tightly. Just one foot is about to get on board.
The last illusion in King Qin's heart was completely shattered - she would not agree, even if it was because of her son, she would never agree to live alone. She must die with Yue Pengju. For this, she would not hesitate to sacrifice her own life son!
He ran over.
Hua Rong had already stepped onto the spiral staircase with one foot, when she was suddenly hugged tightly by a pair of big hands. Her body trembled and she had to take her foot back, but she stood firm, as if she had fallen into a mountain, it was too solid.
"Girl..." The hot breath came over, and a ball of fire burned on the vest, almost boiling the person. The rapid and hot breath circled her hair and ears: "Girl... you push me like this every time." I... How can I just watch you die? Damn girl... Damn girl... selfish and vicious girl... "
Flowers melt and tears fall like rain.
"Girl, I don't want you to die! I don't want you to die at all, and I don't allow you to die!"
Who wishes to die? No one wants that.
"Mommy mommy… "
Her body was empty, and her arms were empty. The little tiger head had already reached King Qin's arms. He flattened his mouth and was about to cry, but his eyes lit up and he stretched out his hand to grab the little turtle that was handed to him. Just as he was about to grab it, his big hand He shrunk and retracted it. He shouted anxiously: "Uncle... hee hee... uncle..."
"You brat, what's your name uncle? Call me daddy! From now on, you are my son!"
"No, my father is... Yue Pengju..."
King Qin slapped his butt with a palm, but it was gentle when it landed, and he lifted him above his head: "Little bastard, if you don't call me Dad, I will throw you into the sea..."
"not called… "
"Little brat, you don't want the turtle anymore?"
The little turtle was swaying in front of Little Hutou's eyes. He was drooling, looking at it eagerly, and said: "Uncle... Dad... Dad... "
After all, she is a child, and if she has milk, she is a mother. The little tiger held the little turtle in his head, snuggled into King Qin's arms and giggled, and soon became very affectionate to this "father". Hua Rong smiled sadly, and felt relieved. I am extremely pleased. No matter what happens to my husband and wife in this life, little Hutou will definitely receive the best care.
No worries in this life.
"Girl, you have to stay and rest for a while before leaving tomorrow."
She shook her head, smiling happily. The afterglow of the setting sun reflected on her face, and the original haggardness reflected the light, just like that evening when she was seventeen years old, on the beach, showing a section of her calf. King Qin moved He opened his eyes and could no longer look at it. He only subconsciously hugged the child in his arms tightly, as if he were holding the person he hadn't seen for a long time.
Hua Rong didn't want to waste any more time. Who knew what accident might happen to Pengju in the capital? "Qin Shangcheng, I'm not tired. I brought dry food with me on the way, and there are two soldiers waiting for me on the way..." Her eyes moved from King Qin's face to her son's face. The son didn't realize that his mother was about to leave, and just muttered He was playing with the little turtle with great interest and a smile on his face.
