Chapter 72: Helpless(1/2)
As soon as Qi Younian opened her mouth, she wanted to leave the capital with Ji Xiaotang.∏∈,
Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er looked at each other. Qi Younian asked Ji Xiaotang to elope with him in front of them.
Master Ji Er couldn't help but cough.
Qi Younian knelt down to Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er with a plop.
"Uncle, aunt, I am in love with Xiaotang, and my grandmother has already made the decision before. But Empress Dowager Han made my grandmother first and then broke up Xiaotang and I behind. I want to take Xiaotang out of the capital without any disrespect."
Qi Younian is willing to swear to marry Ji Xiaotang in front of Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er, and live up to Ji Xiaotang for the rest of his life.
"Please, uncle, aunt, please."
He was so sincere and solemn, and he was still the sad man who had just lost his loving grandmother and his sweetheart. Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er couldn't bear to blame him.
"Ayou, get up and let's talk well."
The elopement is simply unrealistic. Even if I really hope that Ji Xiaotang can be with the person she really likes, Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er would not agree with this method.
Even if they were very confident about Qi Younian's character and commitment.
"Mom, Daddy, let me Ayou talk alone." Ji Xiaotang looked at Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er.
Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er hesitated for a moment, nodded immediately, and they sat outside together to have tea.
Ji Xiaotang helped Qi Younian up.
Qi Younian grabbed Ji Xiaotang's hand and refused to let go, and Ji Xiaotang did not break free.
"Xiaotang, I am sincere..."
"I know." Ji Xiaotang nodded.
"But, Ayou, have you ever thought about what to do after we leave the capital?"
"I……"
"Whether you have thought about it or not, I have thought about it. We can't stay in Daqin, we can go out to sea. My uncle has already gained experience in going out to sea and bought islands overseas. Even if his fleet is outside, I have a way to make us go out to sea smoothly. From then on, we can be free and stay together for life on small islands overseas."
This retreat was originally prepared by Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San for the Ji family, and now it can be used at any time.
Qi Younian's eyes lit up. Not only was he happy that Ji Xiaotang thought about their retreat so carefully, but even more happy that Ji Xiaotang even thought of these things could only represent one thing.
Ji Xiaotang was the only one in his heart.
Ji Xiaotang did not change his mind. It was his Xiaotang.
"Xiaotang..."
Looking at the enthusiasm in Qi Younian's eyes, Ji Xiaotang sighed slightly in her heart. She made Qi Younian happy for a while before she spoke slowly.
"But we are free and free, and we have achieved our wish. But what about the Ji family and the Marquis of Vigor?"
If Qi Younian was a responsible man, he would definitely not have thought of these things.
"I have thought about all these." Sure enough, Qi Younian said, "You and I know the main things of Xiaotang. Even if you leave with me, the Four... King An will not be able to rebel. In addition, your father and others can handle the rest. As for the Weiwu Marquis Mansion, my father is still in his prime and has several brothers, and he can stand alone. ∏∈, if I don't be this prince, the Weiwu Marquis Mansion is not short of people to inherit."
He also seriously considered all aspects. It was indeed a loss for his family when he and Ji Xiaotang left. But the two families could still live as usual.
If it weren't for this, even if he wanted to be with Ji Xiaotang, he would never make such suggestions.
"The Weiwu Hou Mansion is indeed not short of inheritance, but your brothers are not as good as you." Qi Younian could promote the Weiwu Hou Mansion. If he had changed his heir, he would have to be successful at most.
Moreover, Qi Younian's mother has lost her own daughter, and now she is the only biological son.
"... And Ayou, your childhood wish. If you leave, you will never be able to realize it in this life." Qi Younian's childhood wish is to lead troops to guard all directions and fight in the world.
Ji Xiaotang said in a casual manner that after all, they can't abandon this country and the world.
"There are still many things that we have to do but have not done yet." One of them is Qin Min's hatred.
Did they let Qin Min die in vain? Ji Xiaotang looked at Qi Younian.
She knew Qi Younian's answer. Qi Younian wanted to take her away because of affection, not impulse. She also believed that if she and Qi Younian left, they would live a worry-free life and a happy life.
But when they dream about it at midnight, they will also feel a lot of melancholy.
They will not regret being together, but they will definitely miss their family, feel guilty, and regret the things they should have done but did not do.
Qi Younian couldn't bear to part with her, but he would slowly figure it out if he gave him time.
"Xiaotang, aren't you going with me?" Qi Younian just asked, looking a little pitiful.
"Ayou, you will become the God of War in the Qin Dynasty. From then on, martial arts will flourish. Your name, the name of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion, will remain in history forever." Ji Xiaotang is not a prophecy, but it is better than a prophecy. She has already foresawed the future of Qi Younian and the Weiwu Marquis Mansion.
Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian were talking in the study until it was almost time to light the lamp. Mrs. Ji Er walked to the door several times and looked inside. The most common ones were Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian sitting opposite each other, with a low voice, and I didn't know what to say.
At first, Qi Younian was very excited, but later she became depressed. Later, Qi Younian finally calmed down.
Ji Xiaotang has always been very calm, and she seemed to have expected such a day very early.
Mrs. Ji Er walked back to Master Ji Er and sighed softly.
"They haven't finished speaking yet?" Master Ji Er asked in a low voice.
"I'm still talking." Mrs. Ji Er nodded.
"I don't know why they have so many words." Master Ji Er sighed, "To be honest, we are all parents who are not capable. Not only can we not do anything for our daughter, but we have implicated her."
Mrs. Ji also felt that she owed Ji Xiaotang very much.
However, the marriage between Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian was also related to Princess Changning. Even if the Ji family is not the current Ji family, I am afraid there is no way.
Mrs. Ji Er persuaded Master Ji Er in this way.
Of course, Master Ji Er also understood this truth. The reason why he blamed himself was because he loved Ji Xiaotang too much.
"There is nothing to do, nothing to do..."
Ji Xiaotang and Qi Younian's current situation are just like these four words, and they can't do anything about it.∮,
"Poor Xiaotang is going to experience such a painful thing at such a young age." The four words helplessness tell you how many sad people in the world are.
The couple were talking in a low voice, and a confidant servant came in outside to report that it was King An Qinzhen who came.
Master Ji Er was shocked and quickly gave Mrs. Ji Er a wink.
Mrs. Ji Er got up quickly and arrived at the door of the inner room.
Ji Xiaotang just raised her head at this time, and she had already heard the voices outside.
"Mom, is it the prince here?" Ji Xiaotang asked.
"Yes." Mrs. Ji Er nodded and glanced at Qi Younian subconsciously.
Qi Younian looked calm.
"Since the prince is here, please come in quickly." Ji Xiaotang said calmly. Of course, she understood Mrs. Ji Er's eyes. Mrs. Ji Er was worried about whether Qi Younian should avoid Qin Zhen.
Ji Xiaotang said nothing about this. She believed that there was no need to let Qi Younian avoid Qin Zhen. There was no need to hide the fact that she met Qi Younian from Qin Zhen.
Even if she officially married into Prince An's mansion in the future and became Princess An, she and Qi Younian would at least be good friends.
When Qin Zhen arrived at the door of Jinghua Hall, he saw Master Ji Er, Mrs. Ji Er and Ji Xiaotang all greeted him at the door, and Qi Younian was with them.
Qi Younian also saw Qin Zhen, and his eyes immediately became sharper. His face also became quite ugly.
The two of them had already had a fight, and Qin Zhen's face was still covered. But looking at Qi Younian's appearance, he seemed to be incompatible and would beat Qin Zhen up here again.
Qin Zhen naturally understood the bad attitude in Qi Younian's eyes. He paused for a moment, and then walked over as usual. He first met Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er, and then met Ji Xiaotang, and then turned his eyes to Qi Younian.
"It turns out that Ayou is here, just by chance. I brought some local products that have just been transported from the south. I have already handed them over to the kitchen, and Ayou happens to taste them together. I remember Ayou..."
Before Qin Zhen could finish his words, he was interrupted by Qi Younian.
Qi Younian ignored Qin Zhen at all, but just bowed to Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er. Then he said to Ji Xiaotang: "Xiaotang, I'll leave in advance. I will come to see you again if I have time."
Qi Younian and Qin Zhen passed by side and left with each other.
Qin Zhen stood there a little embarrassedly, looked at Qi Younian's back, then raised his hand and touched his nose, and smiled embarrassedly.
"Ayou is still angry with me. Actually, I don't mind letting him punch two more." Qin Zhen's performance was extremely generous.
This performance immediately won the favor of Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er.
Someone has already gone to see Qi Younian, Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er, and Ji Xiaotang accompany Qin Zhen to the upper room of Jinghuatang to talk.
Ji Xiaotang naturally noticed the wound on Qin Zhen’s forehead. The wound had obviously been treated, wrapped in white gauze, but it still showed a little purple.
"How was the prince hurt?" Ji Xiaotang asked Qin Zhen to take off the gauze, and she wanted to see Qin Zhen's wound himself.
Qin Zhen said it was not in the way and did not let Ji Xiaotang see it. However, Ji Xiaotang was very persistent, so Qin Zhen had to agree.
Ji Xiaotang took off the gauze himself, and Qin Zhen did hurt his forehead. It was a bruised and swollen as the size of an egg, and a layer of oily skin was broken. The injury was really hurt, but compared to this injury, Qin Zhen's gauze was a bit exaggerated.
Ji Xiaotang looked at Qin Zhen with a deep meaning.
Qin Zhen must have done this on purpose and exaggerated his wounds.
Qin Zhen grinned again, and when he saw Ji Xiaotang not asking, he didn't explain.
Ji Xiaotang slowly bandaged the wound again.
Master Ji Er and Mrs. Ji Er also followed Ji Xiaotang to look at Qin Zhen's wound. Mrs. Ji Er sighed and asked carefully what medicine Qin Zhen had used and did it feel pain.
