Chapter 22: Mind

Views:

Mo Wei stood by the stone well in the backyard, the dark guard knelt in front of him, and said: "Master, the subordinate is incompetent, Mobei has searched it all over, but still hasn't found the slightest."

Mo mirage said angrily: "Isn't it just a woman! I can't find it, and the assassins of yesterday also ran away! What's the use of raising you!"

Zhong Xia hurriedly rushed to persuade: "The prince calms down, and you can't blame them. This fact is too strange."

Mo Mirage had to wave his hand to make them retreat first, and then said, "Where are you? Are you still in the room?" Zhong Xia shook her head and said, "She said before that she was going to buy something, and she would come back later."

Mo Mirage walked forward, Zhong Xia accompanied, "Zhong Xia, you still send some soldiers to guard at the gate of the city, whoever enters and exits must check carefully."

He was a little embarrassed: "But the prince and madam have been missing for two days, I'm afraid they are no longer in the city."

Mo Mirage sighed and said: "Whether it is or not, I have sent someone to search outside the city. This king does not believe that she will still evaporate from the world!"

Zhong Xia seemed to think of something again and asked: "By the way, the prince, where are the two maids of the previous wife?" Mo Mirage frowned and said: "This king has sent someone to send them back to Nanfeng City, so stay here too. Get in the way."

At this time, outside the Chenghuang Temple, Ye Songsong was playing with a string of sapphire beads that he had just bought, and the three maids were standing in front of her, "How is it, have you found it out?"

The three replied in unison: "I have left the city and are heading for Li Jin at this time." The tone was still indistinguishable, and she said, "Li Jin, what did Qing leave?"

She thought for a while and said: "Forget it, as long as you are not with the son, you can go back with me." After that, the three of them followed Ye Songsong and walked back to the inn.

She returned to the room but didn't see Mo Mirage. She walked to the table and found a letter on it.

Songsong, Brother Zhong is now working as a errand in the Mobei military camp, and perhaps he can use his military strength to find the whereabouts of the lady. I will go to the post with him to deliver the letter. If you come back, please wait for the two of us here, and then go to the camp to the south together.

Mo

After reading it, Ye Songsong folded the letter and put it into the bag of clothes, saying: "Wait, wait, there is nothing to do anyway."

Mo Mirage and Zhong Xia entered the room and saw that Songsong fell asleep on the table. He went forward and patted her on the back lightly, calling out, "Songsong, get up."

She moved her body, slowly opened her eyes, stretched out her hand to support her waist, and smiled: "Why are you going for so long, I'm all asleep."

Zhong Xia said: "I'm really sorry, the main reason is that the girl went out earlier, so I went first if I didn't bother the girl."

Mo Mirage turned his head and looked outside the window and said, "Let's go ahead. The sooner we arrive, the better."

Ye Chansong was a little embarrassed: "My son, why don't you go first, and let me know if you have news." Mo Wei asked in confusion, "Why?"

She looked a little worried and said, "Li Jin only captured Qin Pass a few days ago. I'm from Li Jin again. Going to the barracks, okay."

Zhong Xia shook her head and said: "It's not a problem. My eldest brother is General Li Yi in the camp. It doesn't matter, the girl will go with him."

Mo Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, Song Song is a good friend in the future. It would be a pity if we leave here. After all, we have only met for a while."

Ye Songsong listened to Mo Mirage's words, and felt a little joy in his heart. He was a little bit reluctant to part with himself. He thought for a while and said, "Then, okay, son don't think I'm a burden."

The three of them cleaned up and set off for the camp. At this time, Qingli was also awake, and the eagle was leading the horse by the river to feed the water. Qingli walked to his side and did not speak but stood quietly. .

She looked down at the bracelet in her hand, wondering in her heart. Didn't Mo Mirage say that as long as she left him, she would immediately be poisoned and die? It's been a few days, and it's fine.

Seeing her in a daze, Ye Jiying asked, "What are you thinking about, dazed." Qingli lowered his sleeves and said, "It's okay, but I have some doubts in my heart."

He stretched out his hand and stroked the horse's mane and said: "Why don't you talk about it." Qing Li thought for a while and said, "Have you heard of Xin Gu?"

He frowned and said, "What's the matter?" Qing Li saw that his expression was unnatural, and asked, "What would happen if people were planted with this kind of Gu?"

Yan Ying licked his lips and said, "Actually, I don't know too much. I just know that there is such a thing. After Li Jin, I will ask you a doctor."

Qingli whispered: "Thank you." He walked to the river and put the water bag into the river until it was full and got up and handed it to Qingli: "You drink some water first. Now I don't have food, I can only Wait until Qinguan to find something to eat."

She took a few big mouthfuls and said, "Well, let's go quickly. I'm still worried that those people will come after yesterday."

The eagle leaped on his horse, and stretched out to pull her: "No, if those people know our whereabouts, I'm afraid they have already chased us last night, let's go."

This trip lasted a whole day, and finally arrived at Qinguan Pass. Half of the Central Plains soldiers were no longer visible here. Instead, they were all Li Jin people and the people of Central Plains. Although this place has experienced wars, what catches your eyes is A piece of peace and tranquility, full of happiness.

Looking at the bustling street, Qing Li couldn't help but sighed: "I thought it would be a desolate and desolate place to be taken, but I never thought that it would have a different view. It's rare."

Yan Ying raised his eyebrows and smiled: "That's natural. Do you think the king of Li Jin can only fight? He is far more powerful than the Emperor of the Central Plains. At least he is treating the people and his sons here with heart. Of the people."

Qing Li asked with some interest: "It seems that the things I heard before are just rumors." Yi Xiaoying hummed: "What did the people of Central Plains say?"

She sighed and said, "It's just about how barbarous you are and how cruel your methods are." He sniffed and said, "Hmph, it's all nonsense. Such a dynasty will be destroyed sooner or later. "

Qingli got off the horse and said, "Let's go eat something, I'm very hungry now."

The two found an inn, tied their horses, and went to the street. Qingli had no purse. She lowered her head and said, "Jiaoying, can you lend me some money first, and I will pay you back in the future."

He thought it was funny, and said, "How are you going to pay me back?"

Qing Li was at a loss, just looking at him and not knowing what to say, and the eagle raised his hand and hit her on the forehead and said: "Just kidding, if I want your money, I won't agree to take you away."

Qing Li laughed softly, and she realized that she hadn't laughed for a long time, perhaps now, she felt the breath of freedom.

The hawker on the side was yelling, "Freshly baked meat buns, come buy them." Qing Li couldn't help but look over, and the eagle took a few copper plates and handed them to the hawker: "Bring me two!"

Qing Li was hungry, and didn't care about what to eat at this time. Soon after eating one, the two of them looked at each other and laughed. The day is very pleasant. Qing Li will be the whole street. I have been shopping all over, and the eagle laughed at her: "You are in good spirits, how come I haven't found it before, like a hillbilly."

Qingli glanced at him and said, "I haven't been shopping like this for a long time. The last time, it was a long time ago..." Ye Jiaying was extremely contradictory when she heard what she said, and asked, "Your husband will treat you. How bad are you, does he hate you?"

Qingli lowered his eyes. Last time, it was the day when he and Achen put the river lantern.

"He didn't hate me, he didn't allow anyone to resist him and disobey him, so he tortured me twice, it was his pleasure." She said plainly.

The Eagle also said distressedly: "Don't think about it, didn't you leave him now, you will never see him again, those painful pasts, if you can forget them, forget them."

Qingli thought of her father and mother again, resisting the tears, she looked up at the eagle and said: "Your father and mother must love you very much, but I, there is no more father and mother.... .. "

The Eagle also chuckled softly, "I will tell you, am I an orphan?" Qing Li looked at her with an extremely complicated look, "I'm sorry."

He worshipped his hands and said: "It's okay, it means that we two really have the same disease and pity each other, haha."

The two found an inn, and the eagle walked to the shopkeeper and said, "Open two rooms for me." The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Oh, the guest officer is so embarrassed. The rooms are fully booked tonight. One room."

He continued to ask: "What about other inns around here?" The shopkeeper said while calculating, "I'm afraid it's also full, or you can walk up to three miles, there should be an inn there. "

Qingli stepped forward and pulled his sleeves and said, "No, there's only one room." The shopkeeper went upstairs and opened the door to the two of them and left. He also took a look at the eagle. On a bed, he had the idea of teasing her at this moment.

He stretched his arm around her shoulder and said, "In that case, I have to commit myself to sleep with Qingli." Qingli waved his hand and said embarrassedly: "No, no, I won't sleep tonight. "

Yaying Ying smiled and said: "What are you so nervous and doing, I won't do anything to you." Qingli shook his head and said: "You can sleep by yourself, I just sit in a chair."

He approached the bed and opened the quilt. Chao Qingli said, "Come to sleep. You haven't had a good rest. If you are in a bad spirit, how can you go to Lijin?"

Qing Li fixedly looked at him again, without the slightest joking intentions of the talent, and said, "Where do you want to sleep when I sleep here?"

Yingying also put the two chairs together and said, "I sleep here." Qingli couldn't refuse any more, so he had to put on the couch with his clothes. After a while, Eagle also fell asleep, and Qingli saw him. There was nothing on her body, so she took the mattress and gently covered him, and went back to sleep, but she didn't see the smile that shook the corner of the eagle's mouth.

In the dream, there were all the mirages of Mo. He held a dagger against his neck and said angrily: "Why are you leaving me? Do you think that the king will not be able to find you again after you leave? No, you are wrong. Now, your life is mine. Don’t want to get rid of me in this life or even life after life, because I love you that way."

After that, he stabbed a dagger into his neck, blood dripping down slowly, Qingli wanted to reach out to plug the wound, but he pulled out the dagger and said, "Why are you killing me, why!" Qingli burst into tears, but found that she couldn't make a sound after opening her mouth...
