Chapter 9

The bleak autumn wind blew on Zeng Rou who was tied to the trees, and the strong wind made her clothes rush; in this south mountain, except for the reeds and grinding and telling the desolation, there were only cold winds and bamboo forests that were deserted.

The bamboo leaves swayed to each other under the raging wind, making a strange sound.

This is a quiet forest that looks like another world, but Zeng Rou is not in the mood to enjoy such a beautiful scenery.She looked at Xichun with a strip of cloth stuffed in her mouth, not understanding why she did this to her.

Dig quickly!hurry up!Xichun shouted loudly to his subordinates who were digging the soil.

She met Zeng Rou's eyes, walked towards her leisurely with her eyebrows raised, and then took off the strip of cloth stuffed in her mouth.

Help Ah!Help Ah!As soon as he was free of his mouth, Zeng Rou immediately shouted for help, but except for hearing her echo, only the ridicule of the other three people were left.

Just applaud!In this place, not to mention humans, there are not even ghosts. No one will come if you scream.Xichun smiled evilly.

Xichun, what did I do to sorry for you? Why did you bring me here and tie me up?Zeng Rou roared at her.

Of course, Xichun would not do such a thing. The problem is, I am not Xichun at all.I saw that man tore the face on his face and reveal his true face.

You...who are you?I have no grudges and no grudges with you, why should I treat me like this?Under the face is a beautiful face, but there are a pair of cold and sharp eyes that make people look cold.

You don’t need to know who I am. As long as you know, I will never let a woman have the same face as my sister, but she loves that damn Xuan Qi!

You... are you my mother's sister?!Zeng Rou shouted in shock.

No wonder she felt that this face seemed familiar just now.

She nodded, and she didn't expect that your relationship was already so deep, and he even mentioned this kind of thing to you... This is the pain in his heart, and even his beloved brothers may not understand it. You will know it, which shows how deep he loves you.This is better. If one life is worth one life. If he kills my sister, I will kill his lover and let him taste the pain of losing the one he loves!

You misunderstood!He didn't kill your sister at all. It was your sister who wanted to sneak attack him when he was unprepared, but was killed by his own knife... Xuan Qi was not wrong, it was your sister who was wrong!She shouldn't play with a person's feelings...

Enough!Do you think I will listen to your nonsense?You love him, of course you will speak for him!I don’t know what kind of person my sister is?I have told her a long time ago not to believe in Manchu. Her parents were killed by Manchu, and she even wanted to marry Manchu--

Your sister approached Xuan Qi and even married him just to kill him.Whether you believe it or not, these are all things I have seen and heard with my own eyes.

What you saw with your own eyes?You can also say such nonsense!If you want to convince me, you can make up something that makes people believe.

I understand you won't believe what I say, you only believe what you believe.

I didn't expect that your kung swearing skills were still first-class.That's right, no matter what a woman like you says, I won't believe it.You, a Han man, fall in love with Manren, are simply a shameless slutty woman, and they are still clean after death.

Why should we divide Han and Manchu people?That's right, your parents were killed by Manren, but the murderer was not Xuan Qi. Why did you blame all your faults on him? Is this fair to him?Can anyone choose what kind of person and identity they are born into?

She covered her ears and shouted in pain, shut up!I don't want to listen anymore...

Zeng Rou sighed, forget it, I know you can't listen.If you want to kill, kill it!Anyway, I'm no different from being dead now.

Of course you are going to die!But before I die, I will get the imperial scroll in the royal palace.Xuan Qi lost his imperial scroll and his head was depressed - he valued you so much, and he would hand over the imperial scroll.

You are wrong, he doesn't value me at all, I'm just a tool for warming my bed; he won't care about my life or death, and he won't exchange such important things for me.

snort!Will you have to give it a try before you know.I bury you alive. If he wants to save you, hand over the emperor scroll obediently. If he doesn't follow, you can just wait to die!

Zeng Rou looked at the coffin in the pit and her scalp suddenly became numb.

Day Ah!

Will she die here, at the hands of this crazy woman?

Although Xuan Qi said something that made her feel bad last night, she still loved him.

What is he doing now?

Are you thinking about her?

She really wanted to see him for the last time... She stared at Zeng Rou and said coldly: If you want to blame him, blame that unfaithful man.If anyone teaches you to fall in love with him, this is your fate, just accept your fate!

He won't give you the emperor scroll. In his eyes, I'm not worth anything at all. If you don't believe me, I can't do anything.Zeng Rou stared at the digging pit and said dejectedly.

I'm pretty good to you, at least I found such a beautiful place with beautiful scenery.If you have any suffering, go to the King of Hell to complain!

Xuan Qi rode outside the city for a day and a night, and returned to the palace until the sun was about to set. As soon as he returned to the mansion, the general manager and Xichun immediately rushed to meet him in a hurry.

Seeing that they looked wrong, Xuan Qi spoke lightly, is there anything wrong?

The two looked at each other, and then Xichun spoke first. After Miss Zeng Rou left early this morning--

Xichun had just started, and was interrupted by Xuan Qi raising his hand.If it was her business, I wouldn't want to know at all.She just left, she didn't have to worry about her life or death.After saying that, he left with great strides.

Looking at his back, Xichun and the manager stayed there.Isn’t Miss Zeng Rou the prince’s favorite woman?Now that she has been kidnapped, the prince really doesn’t care at all?

What to do?Master Manager.Xichun asked the manager.

The manager shook his head, there was nothing he could do.Didn’t you hear the prince say that no matter how life or death of Miss Zeng Rou?

But life is at stake...

Xichun thought about it and still felt that this matter was extraordinary and could not tell the prince.So she put the letter on the table in the prince's room. As for whether to look at it or not, it was the prince.

Rou'er... Are you just in a hurry to leave me?Don’t you feel reluctant to leave me?

Xuan Qi stood by the window, feeling chaotic inside.

She really left... Anyway, she will leave him sooner or later, and it is better to have short pain than long pain... He really hates why it is useless for himself, and that kind of woman is thinking about what she does?

He walked to the table and sat down. Suddenly he saw the envelope on the table. He took out the letter and had a bunch of hair falling off. His face turned pale in an instant... This was Rou'er's hair!

Without touching it, he knew that it was her hair, and he would never forget the light and pleasant fragrance of hair in his life.

What's going on?

He quickly opened the letter and read it quickly - it turned out to be... Xuan Qi narrowed his dangerous eyes.

These people are so bold that they dare to threaten him without knowing their lives!

Is he the kind of person who listens to threats?

Rou'er...I will definitely rescue you!He tore the letter to pieces and rushed out of the royal palace.

Listen, the time is almost over. I will go to the front to deploy first. After you finish it, you will come and meet me. Remember to move faster.She left after she explained.

No...you can't do this!It is wrong to do this... Zeng Rou struggled desperately, but she was caught by two men and couldn't move at all.

Just when it was critical, suddenly a strange voice appeared behind them. Two big men openly bullied a weak woman. Can you all do such a thing?!

Who are you?If you know the appearance, leave quickly, otherwise I will even bury you!The two of them held Zeng Rou hostage and said loudly to the visitor.

The man had a black cloth covering his face, and he couldn't see his face clearly. He just settled the two men in a few seconds.

Only scum like you should be buried alive!After saying that, he kicked the two people into the pit where Zeng Rou was originally lying, ignored the two people's whine and begged, picked up the shovel and started filling the soil.

stop!Zeng Rou grabbed the shovel in his hand and stopped him from continuing.Seeing that there was an opportunity, the two men hurriedly rolled and crawled away.

You...let go Ah!You see, everyone ran away!He looked at the two people who were running away in panic and said in annoyance.

Run away.They also follow other people's orders and forgive others when they have to. Since I'm fine, let's forget it.

never mind?!If I hadn't happened to pass by, you would have been the one burying here now!He said angrily.

Zeng Rou shook her head, no matter what, I just can't see someone buried alive... I am very grateful that you saved my life. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay you.

The man immediately laughed when he heard Zeng Rou's words. Why do he hear you say this every time?If you are always so soft-hearted, you will suffer a big loss one day.

The tone of his speech seemed familiar... Zeng Rou looked at the masked man, trying to find a familiar shadow on him.Who is he?

Can't guess it?The masked man took off the face towel.

You are... What appears in front of Zeng Rou is a very young and handsome face.She was very unfamiliar with this face, and looked left and right, but she still didn't know who this person was.

You still can't guess it?The man laughed a few more times, then lowered his voice. Could it be that the little girl would have forgotten me so soon, right?

Ah...You are the old uncle in prison!It turns out... God!She always thought that was an old uncle, but she didn't expect that he was not only not old, but also a young brother in spring breeze.

I never said that I was an old uncle, that's what you think.He smiled.

But your voice was hoarse and low, and at that time, you looked like you had a beard all over, which was much different from now.Unexpectedly, you will become so young after shaving your beard!Zeng Rou observed carefully beside him and said.

Because I was locked up for several months, of course I didn’t shave.And I was locked up for several months and didn't say anything. I didn't speak for too long. Of course, my voice became hoarse when I made a sound.

Zeng Rou said embarrassedly: I'm so sorry, I always thought you were an old man, and I never thought you were so young... Why didn't you correct me?

The old man sounds much more friendly.What's more, I am an old man who can only be able to get young because of you, otherwise I might have been old in prison.

Thank you!If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have dared to think about what would be like now.Zeng Rou was scared when she thought of the scene just now.

I'm just repaying your kindness.But you are in the royal palace, how can these people be captured?

Zeng Rou sighed and told the whole story.oops!If they say it, wouldn’t Xuan Qi be in danger?no!I want to inform him to beware of these people as soon as possible.

Didn’t you say he won’t care about your life and death?

He doesn't care about my life and death, but I care about his safety.I have to go back and tell him that I am lonely.Zeng Rou stood up immediately.

You have to be careful, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you.After a prison sentence, I thought about many things clearly, and I found that I had more important things to do.

Zeng Rou nodded and immediately turned around and ran away.He shouted loudly to her figure: No need to worry too much, Xuan Qi is not a guy who will be settled casually!

Zeng Rou ran all the way, but the bamboo forest she was taken to was too far away, and she could not reach the royal palace even if she ran for a day.

But she was lucky. An old monk who had purchased food kindly took her to spend the night, and the next day kindly took her down the mountain and sent her to the door of Duan Wang Mansion.

She ran into the palace like a flying one, hurriedly searching for Xuan Qi, but met Xichun halfway.

Happy spring!Where is the prince?She stopped Xichun and asked with a breath.

Xichun glanced at her, with disdain in her eyes, and then she wanted to leave.

Zeng Rou was very puzzled and held Xichun, didn’t you hear me talking?Where is the prince?I have something very important to tell the prince.Xichun is very unfriendly to her, why is this happening?

She only left the palace for three or four days!

Xichun said angrily: I advise you not to go to the prince, he doesn’t want to see you.

I know he doesn't want to see me, but I have very important things to tell him.Zeng Rou grabbed Xichun's hand tightly and said excitedly.

Xichun avoided Zeng Rou's hands, as if there were bacteria on her body.

Happy Spring...you...

I'll ask you not to joke like this again in the future!I was worried about your safety at first, but your approach is really disheartening!First, I taught others to send letters and say that I was buried alive and asked the prince to exchange the emperor's scroll for you. The prince brought a large number of people and emperor's scroll to save you. After waiting all day, I couldn't see a half-person figure... Do you think it's fun to play with the prince and us like this?Although we are just servants who are not qualified to say anything, everyone knows very well how much harm the prince suffered in the last wedding.I thought you were kind to the prince, but I didn’t expect you to do such an excessive thing!Do you know that the prince has been waiting for you for a whole day and a night!No matter how ruthless you are tormenting others like this!And since you are leaving, why are you coming back?After Xichun finished speaking, she walked away disdainfully.

Zeng Rou's mind was confused by her words.

Xuan Qi really took the emperor scroll to save her?!

He was really willing to risk losing his life, exchange her with something more important than his life and was vowed to protect her, and waited for her for a day and a night... She wanted to find him!

She wants to make it clear to him!

He must be very sad... She rushed straight into Xuan Qi's study and saw Xuan Qi sitting upright at the table staring at her unhappy. The person who trespassed my study died. You may not know this!

Zeng Rou walked up to him, her eyes were filled with tears in her eyes and said tremblingly, "Are you really... really going to exchange the emperor's scroll for me, and you've been waiting for me for a day and a night?"If she knew he was waiting for her, she would have to crawl back even if she crawled.

She always thought he wouldn't care about her life or death at all, but it turned out that she had misunderstood him.

Xuan Qi looked at her coldly, stood up slowly, and raised the corners of his mouth high, "What, are you here to demonstrate to me?"I'll laugh at me, I was so worried about you all night long by your boring jokes?I still laughed at me and the emperor who transferred to the Imperial Army and surrounded the entire mountain like a fool, but I saw nothing, which made me a joke for everyone in the Forbidden City after dinner?I'm still laughing at me as a fool who can't let go. I've never given up searching for you everywhere, just because I'm afraid you'll have something to do?Do you feel very enjoyable to play like this, right?Every time Xuan Qi said, he would approach her, pushing her back to the corner.

Zeng Rou leaned helplessly against the wall, widened her eyes and kept shaking her head, no...this is not the case!You misunderstood me...how could I laugh at you?It's even more impossible to deceive you!If I want to deceive you, why should I tell you my identity from the beginning?How could you think I am such a terrible woman?Seeing you suffer, I feel more heartbroken than anyone else. How could you think I would be happy... Zeng Rou stroked his face.

She missed this face crazy after not seeing him for only a few days.

She missed him so much... Xuan Qi looked at her indifferently, is that true?Or... do you miss my strong and powerful body at all?It turns out you are no different from those prostitutes!But I'm already tired of you, and it's just even more annoying that you're back now!

If you don't care about me, why should you transfer a large number of people to save me? Why should you look for me outside for a day and a night? Why should you - Before Zeng Rou finished speaking, Xuan Qi grabbed his arm hard.

Enough!You are very proud if your plan succeeds, right?It's fun to play with someone, right?If you want to have a royal vase, just say it bluntly, using this kind of low-key trick to trick me into playing with me, are you really going to force me to be completely cold towards you?At the end of the conversation, Xuan Qi closed his eyes and turned his back to her in great pain, feeling like he was being whipped hard.

He loved her so much that he could give her even if she wanted the whole world to give her. Why did he hurt his heart so much?

He had long lost his self-esteem in front of her. Isn’t this enough?

That's not the case!I beg you to give me a chance to explain, okay?I don't...I really don't... Zeng Rou burst into tears.

Xuan Qi took out a red gold-rolled book from the bookcase and threw it hard at her, roaring in anger, and took it away!This is the imperial scroll, you can do whatever you want!

Zeng Rou hugged Xuan Qi, Qi, don’t do this!I don't want you to do this... Why can't you listen to me well?Things are not what you think...I love you Ah!Can't you feel it at all?

Xuan Qi gritted his teeth and growled coldly, let go!

Zeng Rou still hugged him desperately, and I was rescued by someone who was imprisoned in prison before... In order to revenge on you, my sister wanted to kill me to vent her hatred.I--

Before she finished speaking, Xuan Qi slapped her hard. She was beaten to the ground with pain, with purple bleeding on the corners of her mouth, and her face was numb and painful. No matter how painful it was, it could not compare to the pain in her heart.

Before I lose my mind and kill you, you'd better leave Prince Duan's Mansion!I will never see you again in my life!Xuan Qi's ruthless words, accompanied by the pain on her face, were like countless fine needles, which made her whole body hurt.

roll!Xuan Qi hit the desk with a palm.

He really wanted to kill this woman he loved and hated!

Why is there a woman who makes him hate and love him so much?

He hated that he still loved her, and even more hated that she had digged his heart like this.

Knowing that she was in danger of life, he was worried that he could not eat or sleep. Thinking of the torture she might encounter, he was even more heartbroken and kept complaining about why he forced her away.

Who knew... she was ruining him like this!

He had long lost his soul and heart for her, and even sacrificed his life. Isn’t that enough?

At this time, the door quietly opened, and Xichun lowered her head and said: Prince, there is a guest looking for you.

Xuan Qi snorted casually, patted his clothes, and said to Zeng Rou, who fell to the ground: I don’t want to see you again after I come back!

When Xichun came in, Zeng Rou heard a slight sound of bells.

Xichun has never liked those small ornaments, so why does she have such a sound when she comes in?

Zeng Rou suddenly raised her head, nothing!

She had heard this sound... Just as Xuan Qi turned around without any defense and wanted to walk towards the door, Xichun's knife also stabbed him at the same time.

No... Zeng Rou turned around and stood up quickly, hugged Xuan Qi, while the knife in Xichun's hand pierced deeply into Zeng Rou's waist. When the knife was pulled out, blood immediately sprinkled all over Xuan Qi's hands.

Your luck is really not ordinary, and you always have women to be your scapegoat.As long as a woman is close to you, no one will have a good ending!She tore off the skin on her face and I want to avenge my sister!After saying that, she picked up the knife and stabbed Xuan Qi. This time, Xuan Qi was shocked by his true energy. She was only heard screaming and falling downstairs.

Rou'er!You bear it... I will call the imperial doctor immediately... It turns out that what she said before was true, and not only did he not believe her, he also hit her... God!Is he still a human?

Zeng Rou looked at him with tears.

Just have this sentence.

If I... knew that you were waiting for me outside, I wouldn't agree to the old monk stay overnight... It was my fault, I actually made you wait for me for a night, and you would definitely feel very sad... She fainted in his arms after she said that.

Rou'er...No!I misunderstood you!You can't leave me like this...I don't allow it!I won't let you go!Rou'er... In the end, she was still worried about his feelings... Xuan Qi hugged Zeng Rou's gradually chilling body with red eyes.

He was crazy and asked someone to find all the imperial doctors in the palace. Looking at Zeng Rou who was lying on the bed, and looking at the bright red palm prints on her face, he really wanted to chop off his hands immediately.

Seeing the imperial doctor frowned, he immediately grabbed his collar with force and roared angrily: Say it quickly!What's going on?If you dare to say a wrong sentence, I will let you die immediately!

Qi...Qi...Your Majesty, the child in this lady's belly may not be able to be saved... Because she was injured, even the mother's body was in danger...

Xuan Qi's face changed drastically. What did you say?!child?

Yes.This girl is two months pregnant...

She actually has a child... Xuan Qi looked at Zeng Rou, who was not covered in blood on her face, and kept asking herself what she had done to her.

It was already heartbreaking enough to be unable to argue, but he even beat and scolded her... Why didn't he believe her?

Because when he heard her say he was leaving, he had no choice but to think about anything.

He loved her crazy and could not bear the fact that she was leaving, so he hurt her to make himself better... He must have been crazy to say such excessive words and do such excessive things to her.

She was not wrong at the beginning, what qualifications did he have to blame her?To put it bluntly, his self-esteem is in trouble. He is so angry that he is just a passerby in her life. He selfishly wants to keep her by his side.

He never thought about what she was thinking.

How could he be so selfish that he asked her to give up everything and stay with him?

And she came here alone, and he only knew the only person he knew, and he even forced her to leave... He thought of himself from beginning to end, but the shadow of the injury in the past had to be borne by innocent people... In the end, she sacrificed her child for him and half of her life... Prince, it's good that Xichun came here... The imperial doctor said that as long as the lady recovered well, her body would slowly recover... Xichun could not have thought that such a thing would happen.

Unexpectedly, they all misunderstood her. Not only were they injured, but they couldn't even save their children.

This must have had a big blow to the prince.

No need... I want to take care of her myself, you go down!Xuan Qi said in a mute voice.
