Thousand Miles of Bright Moonlight

Chapter 23: Settlement

Views:

Taiji Palace, Liangyi Hall.

The weather was hot, and water was sprinkled in front of the courtyard steps. The rising sun in the east shone through the light clouds like bird feathers, casting a large golden light beam, and the pitted tile floor shimmered with wet sparkling waves, looking from a distance like a glistening clear water.

The chief eunuch entered the hall and told the Seventh Princess to ask for an interview.

Li De raised his head from the stack of memorials with a surprised look on his face.

Li Zhongqian and Li Yaoying seldom took the initiative to see him unless it was a major event.

The eunuch reminded Li De in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the seventh princess has been running to rescue King Qin these days."

Li De put down his hand and read half of the memorial, frowning slightly.

"What's the matter with the military aircraft, a little lady who stays at home?"

The eunuch hesitated for a moment, then bowed and said, "Your Majesty, King Qin and the Seventh Princess are deeply in love with each other. When the King of Qin falls, they don't know whether to live or die. The Seventh Princess is naturally anxious, so you might as well see the Seventh Princess."

Li De raised his eyes and glanced at the eunuch lightly.

Although the eunuch lowered his head, his heart froze with fright, and his expression became more and more respectful: "Sacred forgiveness, this old slave is talking too much."

Li De looked at him, and the phoenix eyes were bright: "You are the old man by my side. You are the most cautious and mature. Zheng Yu is begging you, and you have to weigh it first. How can you make an exception for the seventh princess today?"

The eunuch was sweating profusely and was waiting to explain when Li De waved his hand.

"Let her in."

The eunuch responded, exited the inner hall, stood by the threshold, closed his eyes, and slowly exhaled a long breath.

Companion of the king is like a companion of a tiger, and the Holy One is warning him to stay away from the prime ministers of the political affairs hall in the future.

The eunuch paused for a while, put on a smile, walked to the front of the corridor, and said to Li Yaoying, who was standing under the courtyard steps with his back to him: "Seventh Princess, Your Majesty, please come in."

Yaoying turned around, her face bathed in the morning light was as pale as the first snow, and her bright eyes were dark and lacquered, and her frowning eyebrows seemed to be enveloped in the empty willow color of spring.

A pear blossom brings rain in spring, and a jade tree is full of snow. It is pitiful, weak and graceful, and has a arrogant and arrogant look like a real girl.

Under the moonlight on Yaotai, the spirit is clear and heroic, and the spirit is high and clean.

The eunuch thought to himself, whoever saw such a Seventh Princess would not bear to stop her from the hall.

Yaoying raised her eyes, stood in the bright sunlight, looked at the fangs and tusks flying between the roofs of the hall, and walked up the stairs slowly.

The eunuch couldn't bear to see her haggard complexion, her footsteps were sluggish, and she couldn't bear it.

Yaoying signaled that there was no need, and walked towards the inner hall step by step.

Hearing the footsteps, Li De didn't look up, his eyes fell on the open memorial room, and said, "I have already sent someone to Huangzhou to search for Erlang, you don't understand what's going on on the battlefield, don't bother the ministers in the court. "

Yaoying walked to the dragon case.

"Sir, you owe me something."

Li De frowned, raised his head, and his eyes were like electricity.

Yaoying met his scrutiny eyes without any fear, "Nine years ago, the sage threw me on the battlefield in order to save the Confucius and Lin family's Xiaolangjun, and I almost died in the chaos of the army."

Li De's pupils shrank, and his expression darkened.

Yao Ying said calmly, "Your Majesty, you owe me your life."

That was when Yaoying was five years old.

That year, Li Zhongqian returned to Jingnan to visit the tomb, and Concubine Xie suddenly fell ill. The Li family was worried that Yaoying would not be taken care of, and sent her to Li De in Xiangzhou.

Yaoying finally met her father.

Li De has been fighting abroad all year round, and his return date is uncertain, and he will not enter Xie Guifei's yard when he returns to Wei County. Before the age of five, Yaoying had never seen Li De.

When she arrived at the mansion where Li De temporarily lived in Xiangzhou, the servants often told her about Li De when he was young, saying that he was handsome and outstanding, and Wei County girls were jealous all the time for him.

That night, Yaoying was lying in front of the window playing, the lights were shining brightly, and there was the sound of horses neighing outside the courtyard wall.

She looked out on tiptoe like a maid.

A tall and straight man walked slowly from the night to the shadow of the lamp, dressed in a majestic bright light armor, tall and straight, handsome and loose.

Yaoying thought to herself, the maid didn't lie to her, her Aye is indeed the most beautiful man in the world.

No wonder Auntie fell in love with him at first sight.

Yaoying remembered Chang Shi's instructions, walked out of the corridor with her short legs, stood at Li De's feet, raised her face, and called him softly, "Aye."

Very cute.

Li De was stunned, looked down at Yaoying, and touched her small head with a rough big hand, "Qiniang is so big."

Concubine Xie's maid stood aside and quietly wiped away her tears.

That night, when the maid coaxed Yaoying to sleep, she happily said, "Xiao Qi, the general still has you in his heart."

One day half a month later, the city of Xiangzhou was broken, and Yaoying, who was sleeping, was awakened by the sound of rapid footsteps. The guard rushed into the house and picked her up, and escaped from Xiangzhou with her and Li De's family.

On the road, they met the defeated Li De and his party, and they immediately went up to them and put on their horses. Suddenly, a group of pursuers rushed out from the hillside and surrounded them.

The situation was urgent. Seeing that the pursuers rushed over, Li De decisively abandoned Yaoying, picked up his two sons, and rushed out of the encirclement.

Yaoying fell to the ground.

Surrounded by ferocious pursuers, swords and swords rained, flesh and blood flying.

She was thrown into a rain of arrows like locusts by her father, and a sharp blade slashed towards her amid the thunderous screams of killing.

The loyal guards clenched their teeth in front of her, and blood spurted out, splashing all over her face.

Yaoying was covered in blood and stared blankly at Li De riding away.

Li De did not look back.

Yaoying remembered what the maid said, smiled at herself, and slowly closed her eyes.

The guards died one by one.

Yaoying hid under the guards and soaked in the stench of blood for a long time.

For so long she thought she was dead too.

Until she heard Li Zhongqian's voice, and heard the persistent, hoarse call of the boy kneeling in front of the dead.

"Xiao Qi, brother is here to pick you up."

Li Zhongqian, who was thousands of miles away, came to her through the smoke-filled battlefield with a pair of double hammers on his back.

Yaoying cried.

That year, Li De abandoned his biological daughter Yaoying and went to save his two sons. Father Kong and Father Lin were so moved that they wept and gave up on him ever since.

Yaoying, on the other hand, wandered outside with Li Zhongqian for half a year after being rescued. The two brothers and sisters walked thousands of miles and returned to their hometown.

The Lin family and the Kong family felt ashamed of her and asked the two young gentlemen to kowtow to her.

Yaoying smiled nonchalantly, and helped the two young men up.

Why should she hate Lin Jiaxiaolang and Kong Jiaxiaolang

It was not them who left her.

Yaoying's generosity saved the Lin family and the Kong family from embarrassment, and everyone was happy.

Cigarettes lingered in front of the incense burner, and there was a faint sweet scent of green tulips in the air.

Yaoying looked at Li De, "Aye, the horse you took Kong Jialangjun and Lin Jialangjun to escape from the siege is the mount of the Xie family guard."

Li De was silent for a while: "Qiniang, what do you want?"

Yaoying smiled: "Don't worry, Aye, this is just the first bill."

What Li De owes her, what he owes the Xie family, and what Li Zhongqian owes, she wants to figure it out with him.
