Qing Xiao is greedy for this rare warmth, he has always been the one who takes the initiative in this relationship, Wei Shuo is rarely so desperate.
The two hugged each other and didn't speak for a while. Wei Shuo's hair and clothes were covered with light dust, and his body also smelled of sweat. It looked like they were rushing here without stopping, and after a long time, Qing Xiao asked softly: "Are you hungry?" After thinking about it, he knew that this person must have been working tirelessly to keep going.
"I'm hungry." Wei Shuo couldn't sleep for more than two hours a day because of his journey. He sneaked into the Prince's Mansion as soon as he arrived in the capital of Wuman Kingdom.
Qing Xiao passed on the meal, he had already eaten, and only drank some wine with Wei Shuo. After drinking and eating, Wei Shuo took another bath, feeling refreshed all over. The two are about the same height and build, Qing Xiao finds his own clothes to put on for him, and he purposely finds the ones he has worn.
But when Wei Shuo was wearing it, Qing Xiao felt itchy in his heart, wishing to take off those clothes.
When he first met Qing Xiao, Wei Shuo was very excited, so he spoke his mind. Now that the excitement has passed, I slightly regret the impulsive words just now.
Qing Xiao naturally saw it, but just pretended not to see it.
"I came to see you because I came here to thank you." Wei Shuo acted as if the relationship between the two of them was not so close, "I know everything about Yuanyang fruit, and the military order you issued .”
"Well, I accept your thanks." Qing Xiao said very freely.
"I want to give this to you." Wei Shuo took out a jade pendant from his pocket while talking, "I think this jade pendant is very suitable for you."
It was a piece of transparent jade pendant with exquisite patterns carved on it, which was very valuable at first glance.
Qing Xiao was in a somewhat melancholy mood, but it disappeared without a trace the moment he saw the jade pendant. He tried hard to press the corners of his upturned lips: "You put it on for me."
Wei Shuo's hands trembled for some reason, and he stumblingly put the jade on Qing Xiao's waist.
"It's pretty pretty." Qing Xiao looked down and said.
"It's pretty." Wei Shuo lowered his head, hiding the light in his eyes.
"When are you leaving?"
"tomorrow."
Qing Xiao suddenly fell silent, Wei Shuo seemed to be explaining: "There are many affairs in the military, I found an excuse to escape, and it is not appropriate to stay out for too long."
"How is your nephew?" Qing Xiao didn't want to continue this topic, so he talked about other things.
"He's alright, he's grown a bit taller, but..." Wei Shuo didn't say the rest, he paused, and then continued, "I will guard the army in southern Xinjiang for him."
Qing Xiao let out a long sigh, as soon as Queen Wei died, the Wei family father and son became thorns in the eyes of the emperor, how many pairs of eyes stared at him, if he was about to make a wrong step, it would be forever. Wei Shuo is not only for the Wei family, but also for the future heir.
The two chatted some gossip again, and then both fell asleep.
Wei Shuo said he would leave tomorrow, but in the end he stayed for two more days. When he left, Qing Xiao jokingly said: "You came all the way to see, I would mistakenly think that you like me."
He seemed to be teasing involuntarily, but he wanted to hear Wei Shuo's words of joy more than anyone else in his heart. If he said it, he would be so happy.
Wei Shuo turned his head and took a deep look at him: "If there is a girl you like, marry her."
Qing Xiao's eyes were red: "I have a man I like, but he refuses to marry me."
Wei Shuo didn't say anything else, he just said take care, then rode his horse and whipped his whip, and left without looking back. Qing Xiao didn't see it, Wei Shuo walked a long way, suddenly reined in his horse, took a deep look in Qing Xiao's direction, and said, "I like you."
Originally, Marshal Wei wanted to find a marriage for Wei Shuo as soon as possible, but something happened to the queen, and the marriage was delayed. Wei Shuo naturally pushed back all these marriages. Seeing that the third prince had returned to the capital, Marshal Wei thought that the two should have broken up, so he didn't say anything.
A few more years passed like this, and the third prince failed to return to the army during these few years. The two haven't lost contact, and they always meet once or twice a year.
Every time Wei Shuo would say: "If there is a girl you like, marry her."
After hearing it a lot, Qing Xiao didn't feel as distressed as when he heard it for the first time, and just laughed it off: "Then why don't you marry a wife?"
In the eighth year when Wei Shuo came to southern Xinjiang, he suddenly received news—the third prince of Wuman Kingdom had been poisoned!
When he received the news, Qing Xiao was out of danger, but he was still worried, and left the barracks overnight to rush to the capital of Wuman Kingdom.
Although Qing Xiao's poison has been cured, he still hurt his body and has not fully recovered yet. He lay pale on the bed, and tried to squeeze a smile at the worried man: "You still say you don't have me in your heart? If you didn't have me, how could you rush over regardless?"
"I'm just a little worried." Wei Shuo's eyes flicked left and right, but he didn't look at Qing Xiao, "If you die, I'm afraid there will never be peace between Da Yuan and Wuman Kingdom." Qing Xiao doesn't like it in his heart In war, as long as he becomes the leader of the Wuman Kingdom, he will make peace with Dayuan. But if he died, the war-loving King Nan ascended to the throne, and he would definitely launch a full-scale war between the two countries.
Qing Xiao smiled: "Then I really can't die."
Wei Shuo stayed with him here for five days. On the fifth night, the two cuddled on the bed. Qing Xiao said, "Sometimes I really want to tell Uncle Wang that I'm not interested in this throne. If you want me, you can do it." Give it to you."
But a person in this position, even if he has all kinds of last resorts, he can't help himself. Although he didn't want to be the lord of the country, if the King of Nan became the lord of the country, the good times of the people of Wuman Kingdom would probably come to an end. Nanwang is sinister, cruel, and a pleasure seeker.
Wei Shuo's heart tightened when he heard Qing Xiao's words, anyone with a discerning eye knew what happened to Qing Xiao's poisoning this time.
"I also want to propose marriage to your Emperor Da Yuan, and ask him to marry you to me." Qing Xiao looked at Wei Shuo and said very seriously.
Wei Shuo's heart skipped a beat: "Don't be joking." If Qing Xiao really did this, his Wei family's crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason would be confirmed, and Yan Shi would really miss the throne.
"I'm not joking," Qing Xiao paused, deliberately scaring Wei Shuo, "I'm serious, but I can't right now. Tell me, if I propose marriage after your nephew ascends the throne, he I will definitely agree."
Wei Shuo knew that Yan Shi would definitely agree, but now that Emperor Chongjin was in his prime, even if Yan Shi ascended the throne, it might take more than ten or twenty years.
"The emperor has just passed his thirties." Wei Shuo said euphemistically, wanting him to give up this idea, but there was also a faint expectation in his heart.
"I can wait, no matter how many years." Qing Xiao said very firmly, Wei Shuo exerted the greatest perseverance to not nod in agreement.
Nine years later, the relationship between Dayuan and Wuman Kingdom gradually eased in the past nine years, especially in the next four or five years, even a small-scale war did not happen, but Wei Shuo knew that it was not Nan Wang who gave up on Dayuan. This piece of fat, but he devoted all his energy to fighting for the throne. What's more, in the past few years, the Wuman Kingdom has experienced frequent disasters, and there is no money to support the war between the two countries.
This year, Emperor Chongjin celebrated his fiftieth birthday, and the surrounding countries were invited, and Wuman Kingdom was naturally also included. Wei Shuo was thinking about Yan Shi, so he just used this excuse to visit the imperial city. Originally, Marshal Wei wanted to send a few more people to go with him, but he refused all of them with reasons.
Along the way, Wei Shuo would look for Qing Xiao every night, and sometimes the two of them would sit in a carriage together avoiding the people of Wuman Kingdom. Qing Xiao raised the curtain and looked outside: "In the blink of an eye, we have known each other for seventeen years, but the time we have been together in these seventeen years is not as long as the time we spend together now."
Looking at his happy face, Wei Shuo couldn't bear to tell him that he didn't intend to return to southern Xinjiang when he came to the imperial city this time, he wanted to stay here to help Yan Shi.
When he was about to reach the imperial city, Qing Xiao snatched the jade pendant from Wei Shuo's waist: "I heard that Big Brother Wei has a jade pendant that he always wears on his body. I heard that it was passed down by your mother for you to give to Xinyue later. People, it must be this piece, why not
Just give it to me. "
Seeing him snatching the jade pendant, Wei Shuo hurriedly chased after him. He didn't really want to get back the jade pendant, but thought that the two had known each other for seventeen years, and he was thirty-six years old this year, not as young as before. The way Qing Xiao snatched his jade pendant reminded him of the two martial arts competitions when they were young, when Qing Xiao couldn't beat him, he would play tricks, then he ran in front and he chased after him.
After arriving in the imperial city, Wei Shuo met Yan Shi by accident, and lived in Yan Shi's residence, while Qing Xiao lived in Honglu Temple. There are many eyes and ears in the imperial city, Wei Shuo was afraid that others would discover the relationship between the two, so he never went to Honglu Temple to look for him again.
When they heard about Qing Xiao again, he had already died of poisoning.
At that moment, Wei Shuo suddenly felt that the sky was collapsing and the ground was sinking, his fingers dug into his flesh, dripping with blood, he immediately vomited a big puddle of blood.
For so many years, I didn't even say a word of love.
At that moment, he even wanted to turn around and go back to the southern border, desperately sending troops to attack the Wuman country, even if he turned against him, it didn't matter.
That night, he sat alone in front of Qing Xiao's bed, looking at the lifeless face on the bed, saying "I love you" over and over again.
Qing Xiao faked his death, it was a plan he and Yan Shi made. He deliberately didn't tell Wei Shuo, just to see his reaction. Qing Xiao took the fake death drug, although he was no different from a dead person, but his mind was clear, he heard everything Wei Shuo said.
When he woke up, he thought Wei Shuo would be angry, but Wei Shuo hugged him tightly until both of them were out of breath.
Qing Xiao took out the jade pendant he had snatched from Wei Shuo: "Since you said you liked me, then I will not return this jade pendant to you."
"That jade pendant has always been with you." Wei Shuo's voice was hoarse.
Qing Xiao suddenly realized that Wei Shuo had given him a jade pendant more than ten years ago, and it turned out to be that piece.
Wei Shuo returned to the southern border with Qing Xiao, at this time Wuman Kingdom had launched a full-scale war against Dayuan.
In order to help Qing Xiao, Wei Shuo fought side by side with him, the battle finally ended a few months later, and Qing Xiao became the leader of Wuman Kingdom.
In the twenty-first year of their entanglement, Yan Shi finally ascended the throne, and Qing Xiao immediately sent someone to propose a marriage.
The battle between Qing Xiao and Wei Shuo's marriage was very serious and lasted for three months.
On the day of the wedding, Qing Xiao leaned into Wei Shuo's arms: "You owe me a lot of love in your life."
Wei Shuo placed a kiss on his forehead: "Then I will tell you every day from now on."
A few months later, Qing Xiao became pregnant, and it was Yan Shi who gave him birth medicine.
Wei Shuo didn't want him to have a child at first, both of them are not young anymore, he happens to be in his forties this year, and Qing Xiao is also thirty-nine years old. At such an advanced age, not to mention a man giving birth to a child, even a woman giving birth is very risky, but Qing Xiao still secretly took the birth control drug, he wanted a continuation of the love between two people.
After Qing Xiao became pregnant, Wei Shuo stuck with him all the time, even if he went to court, he would sit behind a screen in an inconspicuous corner of the court.
Qing Xiao is in good health, and he often practices martial arts. The delivery process went smoothly. He is a very beautiful and lively little prince.
In a blink of an eye, the little prince was already three years old, and it was time for him to be lively and active. On this day, he did not know where to find a bed sheet and put it on his body to pretend to be a hero.
When Wei Shuo saw the sheet, his scalp went numb, and he hurriedly snatched it from the little prince's hand while Qing Xiao was not paying attention, but Qing Xiao saw it after all.
"Bring it!" Qing Xiao stretched out a hand with a very serious face.
This bed sheet must be weird, otherwise Wei Shuo would be so excited.
Wei Shuo didn't want to make Qing Xiao angry, so he took out the bed sheet awkwardly. This is an old bed sheet with large stains on it. As a man, Qing Xiao naturally knows what those stains represent.
He felt more and more that the bed sheet seemed familiar, but where had he seen it? I really can't remember.
Wei Shuo looked at him frowning.
It's very pretty, but he can't bear to think about it too much, so he said hesitantly: "This is the bed sheet from that year, the one we two had when we first met."
Back then, Wei Shuo took out the sheets by accident, and whenever Qing Xiao thought about it, he would take it out to have a look. This was originally his secret, but now his son has revealed the secret.
Wei Shuo was a little embarrassed.
Qing Xiao was very happy: "This way, I have lived up to my twenty years of waiting."
Wei Shuo put away the sheets and held Qing Xiao in his arms: "My heart has always been you."
