"You mean, the people from Jianlu might kill Jiaojiao?"
In the study, after listening to his son's narration, Marquis Xuanping said that he was not surprised.
Xiao Heng said sternly: "Jiaojiao's dream has always been very effective. When you almost died in the mudslide, it was thanks to her that she saw the rainstorm and mudslide in her dream in advance."
Zi Buyu was eccentric and confused. Marquis Xuanping was the one who tied his head to the waistband of his trousers. Everything he did was relying on his own force to fight.
However, when it comes to Gu Jiao, he is very cautious.
"The grandsons of the turtles in Jianlu are all dead." He was a little annoyed, knowing that there would be such a stubble, he left a few alive.
Xiao Heng said, "Those are all disciples of the outer sect. They have limited understanding of the inner sect. They are not as valuable as Mingyue."
The Marquis of Xuanping said thoughtfully, "I'll arrest that guy for trial another day."
Xiao Heng did not object.
Don't say that you need to be kind, sometimes the kindness to the enemy is cruel to yourself.
"Father, have you seen any master in Jianlu wearing this mask?" Xiao Heng handed the sketch paper he carried with him to Marquis Xuanping.
Xuanping Hou took it over, looked at it carefully, and shook his head: "No. Why do people in Jianlu wear masks?"
This question made Xiao Heng and Gu Jiao stunned.
Because it is an established fact, neither Gu Jiao nor Xiao Heng questioned the irrationality of this phenomenon.
On the other hand, Marquis Xuanping, bystander Qing, noticed something was wrong at a glance.
Xiao Heng quickly came back to his senses and said, "I was almost led astray by you. Both Dark Soul and Heaven Killing are wearing masks. I guess, this should only be the case when inner disciples are born to perform their tasks."
Xuanping Hou nodded: "This makes sense. I will check it out. You can prepare for the next exam with peace of mind."
Xiao Heng looked at him suspiciously: "Did I... tell you that I want to take the exam?"
Marquis Xuanping hummed: "If you don't tell me, I won't ask?"
He is now a father who knows how to care about his son, and will not ignore his academic affairs, or pretend not to ask.
Xiao Heng smiled: "Thank you father."
The Marquis of Xuan Ping said with an unruly face: "What thanks to my father? If I really want to thank you, I will give Yiyi a little nephew to play with."
Xiao Heng: "..."
There are two things that cannot be avoided in life: urging marriage and urging children.
Xiao Yiyi was about to go to bed, so the two bid farewell to Princess Xinyang and Marquis Xuanping and returned to their yard.
As soon as he entered the room, Xiao Heng asked, "My mother didn't say anything strange to you, did she?"
"What strange words?" Gu Jiao asked.
Xiao Heng said: "For example, urging you to have a big fat boy or something?"
"No." Gu Jiao said.
Xiao Heng breathed a sigh of relief.
Unexpectedly, this sigh of relief was not over, and she heard Gu Jiao say: "Just give me a bowl of fetal sitting medicine."
Xiao Heng: "...!!"
As expected of her mother, she is more ruthless than her father.
Xiao Heng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Tomorrow, I will go and tell my mother that she will stop doing this in the future."
Gu Jiao said: "It's okay, it's actually some medicinal herbs that nourish qi and blood. It's not harmful to drink it."
Xiao Heng thought for a while: "Alright." It's better than telling his mother that they don't plan to have children for the time being.
"Do you want a baby?" Gu Jiao asked him.
The two have never discussed this topic in depth. It was Gu Jiao who took out contraceptive measures after being drunk, and the two seemed to accept it logically.
Xiao Heng smiled and said, "You are still young, it will not be too late to regenerate when you are older."
Gu Jiao lowered her eyes: "What if I always don't want to give birth?"
Xiao Heng's eyes flickered with surprise, but without hesitating for too long, he looked at her with determination and said, "Then there will be no birth. Anyway, there is still my brother. It's a big deal to let him inherit the lineage."
Gu Jiao took a step forward and pressed her forehead against his chest: "Touch your head."
Xiao Heng smiled lightly and gently touched her head.
Gu Jiao felt his comfort, the intimacy she couldn't crave from her parents when she was young.
After a long time, she said in a low voice, "I'm a little monster. I'm afraid that I will give birth to a baby, and it's also a little monster."
It was the first time she had spoken of fear in front of him.
She has never been afraid of anyone, anything, bloodshed in battles, life and death in plagues, and she has never had the slightest fear.
Xiao Heng's heart twitched, and he hugged her tightly: "You are not a little monster, you are my Jiaojiao."
Gu Jiao didn't speak, just leaned against his arms quietly.
She knew that Xiao Heng was not her parents in her previous life, nor was she, they would not treat their children like that.
But there are some subconscious shadow reflections that she can't control.
She can go through all the pain in the world, but she doesn't want her baby to be hurt too.
"It hurts."
she says.
"They don't want me."
"It really hurts."
…
State Government.
It was late at night, but An Guogong had no sleepiness. He went to Xuanyuanqi's yard.
Xuanyuan Qi always went to bed early, and no accident, the lights in his room were still on.
An Guogong pushed a wheelchair inside.
"I can't, can I walk?" Xuanyuan Qi pushed open the door and pushed him in.
An Guogong smiled and said, "I can't go much."
"Anything with me?" Xuanyuan Qi parked his wheelchair at the table of the Eight Immortals, and sat down opposite Anguogong himself.
An Guogong said bluntly: "You seem to know Jiaojiao very well."
"We fought together," Xuanyuan Qi said.
An Guogong remembered this time when Gu Jiao and Xuanyuanqi dealt with Gongsun Yu and Jin Jun in Guishan and Pucheng, nodded and said, "Really? But I think you know more about her than that."
Xuanyuan Qi didn't answer him, but asked earnestly, "Why, you speak so neatly?"
An Guogong fell off his horse and was in a vegetative state for three years, much more serious than Xuanyuanqi.
An Guogong smiled and said, "Because I'm smart."
Xuanyuan Qi's face darkened and he came to the door: "Goodbye."
…
Liaochen returned to Duke Anguo's mansion in the middle of the night. After being chased for three days, he finally got rid of the guy.
He climbed over the wall and returned to the yard, and after walking for three days, he didn't know if his father went out to find him, or if he was worried that it was broken.
He immediately went to tell his father that he was safe.
"Dad really didn't sleep, he seems worried about me..."
The dust knocked on the door.
"Come in." Xuanyuan Qi said.
Leochen pushed open the door and entered, and saw his father sitting in front of the window, carefully wiping a silver pendant inlaid with wolf teeth with a handkerchief.
This pendant is his father's personal belongings. It has been worn on his body for decades. It is said that it was a birthday gift given to him by the first Shadow Lord, and he has been cherishing it to this day.
He smiled and said, "Dad, I'm back. I'm sorry, I've had a little trouble these days, which made you worry."
Xuanyuan Qi glanced at him and resolutely put away his pendant, as if he was afraid that his own son would snatch it away.
Lichen was extremely speechless: "You don't have to be so protective of me, I won't steal it."
Xuanyuan Qi hummed: "Who knows then."
Dust: "… "
Xuanyuan Qi said lightly, "I'm not worried."
Liaochen was stunned for a moment, only to realize that his father was answering his first sentence.
He expressed confusion: "I, disappeared for three days, are you not worried?"
Xuanyuan Qi said calmly: "Qing'er said, go, chase after your daughter-in-law, let me, don't look for you."
Liaochen: "???"
Shangguanqing, you come out, I promise not to kill you!
Xuanyuanqi's martial arts are so good that he woke up halfway drunk. Seeing that his son was not there, he was going to find his son. Shangguan Qing had a clever idea and used this strategy to fool Xuanyuanqi.
In the name of congratulations to Xuanyuan Qi, Xuanyuan Qi was drunk again.
"Mine, where's my daughter-in-law?" Xuanyuan Qi asked expectantly.
Dust: "… "
…
On June 22, Xiao Jingkong and Shangguan Qing, who had finished their three-day tour of the capital, finally returned to the Princess Mansion.
As soon as he got off the carriage, Xiao Jingkong quickly ran towards Lanting Courtyard, but Shangguan Qing didn't stop him if he wanted to.
Looking at the little guy's little back, Shangguan Qing, who had already lost a layer of skin, sighed exhaustedly: "I can only help you here, brother."
It was only three days before he collapsed. I really don't know how my brother took this little guy from Zhao State to Yan State.
Also, one new firearm is not enough, stinky brother must give him at least three firearms!
"Son!"
Some servants found Shangguan Qing and rushed over to salute him.
Shangguan Qing stiffened and said, "Come here, give me a hand, I can't move."
The little monk drained all his energy!
As soon as Xiao Jingkong entered Lanting Courtyard, he was ruthlessly intercepted by his brother-in-law.
The bad brother-in-law sandwiched him and took him to the practice room.
"I want to see Jiaojiao." He said with a dark face.
"Jiaojiao hasn't woken up yet, I'll take you to see her later." Xiao Heng said.
Xiao Jingkong looked up at the bad brother-in-law: "Why haven't you woken up yet? Is Jiaojiao sick?"
No wonder Xiao Jingkong asked this question. It was because Gu Jiao's routine was too regular. She was always the first one to get up in the family. She only woke up a little later when she was uncomfortable.
Xiao Heng said calmly, "I'm not sick, Jiaojiao slept late."
"Why did Jiaojiao sleep late?" Xiao Jingkong asked.
Of course Xiao Heng couldn't tell him the real reason, so he could only say: "Jiaojiao is married, she is a bride, she has a lot of things to do. For example, the luggage brought from the wedding, dowry, etc., all need to be sorted out."
"I did bring a lot of things on the wedding day." Xiao Jingkong nodded solemnly, then he looked at Xiao Heng disapprovingly, "Why don't you tidy up? You want Jiaojiao to tidy up? You are too lazy! Don't go out! Little Treasure is more diligent than you!"
Xiao Heng, who had been working hard all night: "..."
Happy National Day, ask for a wave of double monthly passes, alright~
