Han Qixia calmed down, and said without hesitation: "Mother and concubine found a good marriage for the second brother at the end of February. She is the eldest daughter of Ning Guogong's mansion."
Duke Xianning was one of the important officials who followed the emperor to conquer the world. When Dayu was about to rise, Duke Xianning died to save the emperor. The late emperor was grateful for his loyalty, and bestowed the Xiang family with a hereditary imperial title, and he did not lower his rank for three generations. Although Ningguo's mansion does not hold real positions now, it is a family of one and two in the capital. With such a prestigious mansion, how could the eldest daughter marry the Prince of Qi?
Although the two families are indeed well-matched, everyone in the royal capital knows that the Prince of Qi has a romantic temperament and is not very atmospheric. He hasn't gotten married yet. Almost all the maids in the yard have been attached to their bodies, and they use their identity to make troubles in the royal capital all day long. Look down.
Could it be...
Nangong Yue had a guess, and couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that the condition of the Duke Ning's mansion is to let you go get married?"
Han Qixia twitched the corners of her mouth, and it was difficult for her to say, "Yes."
Nangong Yue couldn't understand, "What's the benefit to Ningguo Gongfu?"
Han Qixia shook her head, "I don't know.... I was very worried when I first heard the news, worried that the concubine would agree to this condition for the second brother. The more hesitant the concubine, the more worried I became... "
Recalling Han Qixia's sad face during Fu Yunyan's wedding ceremony, Nangong Yue only blamed herself for not asking further.
"Later... Just a few days after you left, the mother-in-law called me over, saying that my marriage had already been decided, and that I would marry Kui Lang." Thinking of the situation that day, Han Qixia felt sadness in her heart.
At that time, the mother-in-law said that the Ningguo Gongfu had found a good job for the second brother, and she should make sacrifices for the second brother's future.
Why?
Shouldn't the future be fought by oneself? The eldest brother is also born and died on the battlefield, fighting with his life for military merit and future.
Why is it the second brother's turn, and his future requires her to sacrifice? Use her marriage, her happiness, her whole life to sacrifice?
Han Qixia's eyes were hazy with tears, and her voice was also choked, and she continued: "I don't agree. I went to ask my father, but my father never cares about such 'trivial things'... Big brother and sister-in-law went to the palace to help me go to the emperor's uncle and beg for peace. Aunt Huang, I didn't expect..." She said with a wry smile, "The concubine seems to be afraid that if she can't get married, she will hurt the second brother, and she directly declares to the outside world that I will marry Kui Lang and the relative. , this matter has no room for turning around. I, I simply voted..."
Nangong Yue's hand clenched tightly involuntarily.
How can there be such a mother in the world, for the sake of her son, she completely ignores her daughter, and even forces her to die?
Nangong Yue held her hand, the back of her hand was cold and trembling slightly.
"...that day, my sister-in-law came to see me and rescued me." Han Qixia raised her head, the red mark on her neck that had not completely faded away was shocking to both Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei. " But I really don't want to live anymore..."
Nangong Yue could understand that Han Qixia's death intention was not just because she didn't want to marry Kui Lang with her, but because of Princess Qi. It is because her biological mother abandoned her without hesitation and sacrificed her attitude.
"Sister-in-law knew that I was dead, so she asked me to abandon my identity, leave Qi Wangfu, and come to join you."
Han Qixia recalled that day, although she was rescued by her sister-in-law, she no longer had any idea of surviving, and she only wanted to die. For three days and three nights, she didn't get a drop of water, but the mother-in-law thought she was making a fool of herself and never came over to take a look. It was the sister-in-law who accompanied her in a confused manner... In the end, the sister-in-law said that since she was no longer afraid of death, she simply thought she was dead.
From then on, she gave up her status as the daughter-in-law of the Prince of Qi's mansion, and gave up brocade clothing, jade food, and prosperity and wealth.
From then on, there is no Han Qixia in this world anymore.
From then on, she was just an ordinary girl from Dayu.
She agreed.
So, with the help of her eldest brother and sister-in-law, she feigned suicide by throwing herself into the lake on the way to incense. The eldest brother sent a reliable person to escort her all the way here.
Han Qixia smiled, pretending to be relaxed and saying, "Yue'er, I have nowhere to go, so I can only come here to find you."
Nangong Yue's heart was sour for a while.
At this moment, she doesn't know what to say, any comfort is pale now.
Han Qixia is eager to give up, maybe Jiang Yixi's proposal is the best choice.
But……
It is not easy for a woman in this world, what's more, Han Qixia has abandoned her surname, her family, and everything, which will mean that she has nothing and no protection from now on. Nangong Yue could almost imagine how desperate Han Qixia was to make such a choice.
Xiao Fei took out the handkerchief and gently wiped the tears on her cheeks.
At this moment, the surroundings were extremely quiet, revealing an unbearable depression.
After a full two hours, Nangong Yue and Xiao Fei came out of the ear room and closed the door gently, not waking up Han Qixia, who was sleeping soundly.
Xiao Yi and Fu Yunhe waited a little anxiously.
Nangong Yue simply told them what happened, and the two of them were stunned. Who would have thought that Princess Qi would push her direct daughter into the fire pit with her own hands!
Fu Yunhe said angrily, "How can Uncle Qi let the princess mess around like this! No, I have to find my grandmother..."
"Wait." Nangong Yue stopped and sighed, "If you want to ask Yongyang's grandmother to call the shots, then you don't have to... Sister Xia is right, there is no such person as Han Qixia in this world anymore. This result cannot be changed. ."
Han Qixia feigned death and escaped, if people find out that she is actually still alive, she will lose her reputation, and she will probably be an ancient Buddha in the second half of her life.
Fu Yunhe also thought of this, and couldn't help but hesitate.
"Let Sister Xia go to the southern border with us. We have to settle down first." Nangong Yue said in a bad mood, "I didn't expect that such a thing would happen after we walked for a few days... Actually, I I don't understand why Ning Guogong's mansion has to ask Sister Xia to marry her..."
...
At this moment, Han Lingguan, the second prince who was far away in the capital, was also in a bad mood.
Wearing a purple round-neck brocade robe embroidered with a five-clawed dragon pattern, he sat gloomily behind the red sandalwood desk, recalling everything that happened a few days ago, and everything went wrong.
In other words, since the incident a few years ago, he has not been smooth.
First, the Zhennan Palace, he neither managed to get along with Xiao Yi, nor did he marry the Zhennan Palace!
According to his original plan, he could use the marriage with Baiyue to put pressure on the Zhennan Palace to force them to decide on Xiao Fei's marriage as soon as possible. more smoothly.
Han Lingguan feels a little pity every time he thinks about it. It's his fault that he didn't see the right time. He originally wanted to make Zhennan Wangfu hurry up a little bit, and the marriage proposal would go more smoothly. Xiao Yi and the others returned to the southern border.
If Wen Yu had been asked to propose marriage earlier, the marriage must have been decided by now.
What a mistake, step by step!
You are so negligent!
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Han Lingguan said "Come in", and a middle-aged man with a goatee walked into the study, saluted him, and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, the Duke Ning's government has just received Under the Geng Tie of the Prince of Qi, this marriage will not be lost."
Han Lingguan let out a sigh of relief and said with a self-deprecating smile, "This is the first good news I've heard in more than half a month... Mr. Guan, please take a seat."
The name of the person who came was Lu Yao, and he was one of Han Lingguan's staff.
Guan Yao is very talented, and Han Lingguan took a lot of effort to recruit him, so he attached great importance to him and treated him with courtesy.
"Actually, Your Highness doesn't need to worry too much." Guan Yao said while stroking his beard, "The eldest daughter of Ning Guogong's mansion is the daughter left by Ning Guogong's original wife. To be favored. To use a girl to show loyalty to His Highness, what is the meaning of being happy for Ningguo Gongfu? What's more... Qi Wangfu is also one of the best people in this capital, so it is not a disgrace to the eldest girl. "
"That's good," Han Lingguan said with a smile, "It's hard to take care of Mr. Master. It would be great to be able to marry Prince Qi's mansion... Although King Qi's mansion is not very good, there is still a cousin Huaijun in the mansion of King Qi, this man. Courageous and good at fighting, brave and resourceful, and he made great military achievements in the battle against Chang Di. In a few years, the father and emperor will let him alone in charge of the army. With Huaijun's cousin here, Qi Wangfu will definitely be in the future. It's the first prince's mansion in the capital. It's a pity Cousin Xia..." Having said this, Han Lingguan sighed slightly, "I didn't expect that the cousin who even spoke softly on weekdays would commit suicide by throwing herself into the lake, too. This palace is negligent..."
"Your Highness is wrong." Guan Yao shook his head and said, "Miss Han is not the fault of Your Highness. As a daughter of the royal family, Miss Han is enshrined by the people of Dayu and enjoys brocade clothes and jade food, so she should sacrifice for Dayu. Herself. But Miss Han is selfish and only ends her life on the grounds that she doesn't want to marry Kui Lang, which is really inappropriate. Since Princess Qi has already agreed to let Miss Han marry her, she should explain her interests in detail. , but let her vote for the lake like this, and she is also responsible for taking care of it. It is really a waste of His Highness. "
Hearing what he said, Han Lingguan's heart felt much more comfortable, and he nodded slightly, "...Mr. Guan is right." He stopped worrying about Han Qixia Xiangxiaoyu's death, paused, and said, "Yi Ben From what the palace sees, the father emperor will definitely support Kui Lang to take the throne this time, so, to marry Baiyue, we still need to choose another suitable person, we have to take this opportunity to hold Baiyue in his hand."
Guan Yao responded, and then said, "There is one more thing, Your Highness, just now Wen Yu went to my servant's place, saying that he had been with Marquis Anyi recently and had benefited a lot. He has already gone to ask the eldest princess Yongyang, who will be taken care of by him. When the eldest Princess Yongyang came forward to talk to Marquis Anyi about the matter of apprenticeship, when does Your Highness think it is feasible?"
Han Lingguan said categorically: "The sooner the better." He originally wanted to wait until Wen Yu showed his intelligence in front of Marquis Anyi and let Marquis Anyi look at him in a different light, but after losing the first opportunity, Han Lingguan felt that he could not wait any longer. Go on, "It's better to set the name of master and apprentice as soon as possible."
The official words of the Marquis of Anyi are plain, this man is incomparably intelligent, if he can support him, he will definitely be able to go further from the position!
Han Lingguan tapped the bookcase with his finger lightly, and muttered, "...Speaking of which, Marquis Anyi has not married yet. He has already passed the period of filial piety, and it is time to think about marriage..."
"His Royal Highness." The voice of his personal servant came from outside the study, and said, "His Royal Highness ordered someone to tell you that she is waiting for you at the second gate."
"That's right." Han Lingguan recalled, "Today, Prince Qi's mansion will help Cousin Xia, and Ben Gong and Qing and Li have to go there. Mr. Guan, we will discuss it after Ben Gong returns."
Pipeline Yao got up and cupped his hands: "Your Highness is merciful."
"Anyway, it's also Ben Gong's cousin, and she left early again."
Han Lingguan sighed and went out the door.
The second prince and his wife went to Prince Qi's mansion together to incense Han Qixia's spiritual throne.
Han Qixia's rituals are all handled by Jiang Yixi alone. Although there is help from the maid, Jiang Yixi is already exhausted by the time the rituals are over.
Han Huaijun specially came to wait for her, and the two walked hand in hand to the yard where they lived.
The journey was quiet, and seeing no one around, Jiang Yixi suddenly said, "Sister Xia should be about to catch up with Sister Yue and the others..." Although Han Huaijun arranged for someone to escort her, but after all, Sister Xia was young, and she was a young lady. The girl's family, I am afraid that I will suffer a lot along the way, and Jiang Yixi can't help but feel a little worried.
Han Huaijun said comfortingly, "Big brother, there are many people, and they won't go too fast along the way. If Sister Xia travels day and night, I guess I should catch up in the next few days. Don't worry..."
"That's good." Jiang Yixi breathed a sigh of relief, "With Sister Yue and the others taking care of them, Sister Xia will definitely live well..."
Even though he said that, Jiang Yixi still had an indescribable helplessness on his face. She and Han Qixia have also known each other since childhood, and they are both envied noble daughters in the capital, but who would have thought that one day, the eldest daughter of the dignified King Qi would need to feign death to escape, and since then they will remain anonymous!
From now on, Han Qixia will be a familyless person.
In the future, they don't know if there will be a day when they will meet again.
"Xi'er," Han Huaijun took Jiang Yixi's shoulders and said softly, "Sister Xia will surely live a safe life! ... It's good to be able to leave Prince Qi's mansion, there is nothing to cherish in such a messy place."
A flash of coldness flashed in Han Huaijun's eyes, and he couldn't help thinking of the time when his mother was demoted as a concubine. Whether King Qi or Princess Qi, they are nothing but a raccoon dog! It's not necessarily a bad thing for Han Qixia to escape from this Longtan Tiger Den.
"Xi'er, one day. We will also leave this Qi Palace..."
Jiang Yixi looked at him and nodded lightly.
If you leave the Qi Wangfu, maybe there will be another day to see Sister Xia.
Just as Han Huaijun and Jiang Yixi were thinking about Han Qixia, at this moment, Han Qixia who was sitting in the carriage was also thinking about them.
Han Qixia lowered her eyes halfway, just sitting there, her body unconsciously exuded a melancholy aura.
Xiao Fei looked at her with a hint of worry in her cold eyes, and said, "Sister Xia, do you like hand-to-hand talk? How about we hand-to-hand talk?"
Han Qixia came back to her senses, looked at Xiao Fei, forced a smile and said, "Sister Fei, if you don't dislike my mediocre chess skills. It's just that it's a little inconvenient to play chess on a carriage..."
While she was talking, Xiao Fei had taken out a small chessboard and two boxes of small chess pieces from a large box on the side, which attracted Han Qixia's attention at once, and picked up a piece of chess piece and looked at it, "Isn't that the case? Installed a magnet?"
Xiao Fei nodded, her eyes shone brightly, and said, "This is given to me by my sister-in-law."
Xiao Fei used to think that since playing chess, just like playing a qin requires a good qin, playing chess should also use the best torreya wood chessboard and the best cloud pieces, that is the respect for chess. , how can it be possible to play chess well with an ordinary chessboard? At this time, the iron chessboard and the magnet-embedded pieces, which she would never have seen in the past, became more precious.
Seeing Xiao Fei's expectant eyes, Han Qixia couldn't help but nodded.
With these small chess pieces, it is impossible to use the usual way of playing chess, so the gestures of the two girls are a bit clumsy and a little cautious. ...
Xiao Fei doesn't know how to comfort people, all she can do is play chess with Han Qixia every day, review the game, play chess, review the game...
A smile gradually appeared on Han Qixia's face.
The two became acquainted without realizing it. According to Xiao Fei, Han Qixia was her chess friend.
At the beginning of April, Xiao Yi and his entourage arrived at the last station of the trip. This area is already in the southern border, and they are only half a day away from Luoyue City.
After having dinner together, Xiao Yi said to the tired crowd, "You can go to Luoyue City tomorrow, everyone should rest early today."
After such a long period of exhaustion, Xiao Yi and Fu Yunhe are martial artists after all, and they are in good spirits, but the three girls, Nangong Yue, Xiao Fei and Han Qixia, were only for dinner. Kung Fu has yawned several times.
Everyone stood up and planned to go back to the room, when Lin Jingchen said, "Ayi, Yue'er, I'll part ways with you tomorrow morning."
This sentence attracted surprised eyes from everyone. Just as Xiao Yi was about to speak, he heard Nangong Yue grabbing ahead of him and said with a smile, "Ayi, my grandfather never liked those red tapes, so let's leave it to my grandfather." Nangong Yue knows best. Lin Jingchen, however, in the last life, even if he took himself out for a trip to collect medicine, he would take at most one servant and one maid. Xiao Yi is the son of the king of Zhennan, and his return to Luoyue City will surely disturb many people and disturb the purity of his grandfather.
"Whoever knows me is Yue'er." Lin Jingchen looked at Nangong Yue with emotion and sighed.
It's obvious that he and this granddaughter haven't been together for a long time, but the two seem to be very compatible, even if they have been with their daughter Lin Ruoyan for many years, they are not as good as him and Nangong Yue. This is probably what is called fate.
Seeing that Nangong Yue said so, Xiao Yi no longer forced Lin Jingchen, and replied, "Grandfather, let Zhou Dacheng come with you. I have a small house with two entrances in the southwest corner of Luoyue City, and I need to clean it up and repair it a little. It should be able to live in. Although the house is not very good, there are several mountains three miles southwest of Luoyue City. It is said that there are many rare medicinal herbs and birds on the mountains. In the small market formed, some people will go there to buy some medicinal herbs and game from the mountains with the prey of medicinal farmers, and if my grandfather is interested, he can also go there for a walk."
Xiao Yi's arrangement couldn't be more appropriate, and Lin Jingchen responded with a smile.
"Grandfather," Han Qixia turned to look at Lin Jingchen. These days, she and Xiao Fei followed Nangong Yue to call Lin Jingchen their grandfather, "I... can I go with you?"
Her status is a bit embarrassing now, and she finally got out of one palace, and she doesn't want to live in another palace.
She wanted to live a very different life than before.
Lin Jingchen was stunned for a moment, then slapped his palms and smiled: "I picked up a bargain, and I picked up such a big granddaughter during a trip to the southern border."
In other words, agreed.
Han Qixia let out a sigh of relief, a slight smile appeared on her face.
Nangong Yue took her hand and said gently, "Sister Xia, I'll see you when Ayi and I settle down."
Han Qixia nodded lightly, wanting to tell everyone not to worry about her.
Since she has taken this step, she will definitely live better than before.
I'm going to Luoyue City tomorrow...
Thinking of this, Xiao Yi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his obsidian-like eyes became deeper and deeper in the dim candlelight, flashing a bewildering light.
After being dormant for several years, this time, he finally returned to Southern Border with his head held high!
Looking at his shining handsome face, Nangong Yue hooked his hand with a smile.
