The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis
Chapter 256 Xie Lin's Marriage Proposal
Chu Heyi sneered, "The people of Qingyang City have already lost their homes, and there is no harvest this autumn, but you are deliberately hoarding food and selling it at a high price. You are pushing the people to death. You are the one who is so cruel and vicious, it's you, Princess Cheng."
Runxue sneered, "Sacrificing one city to save the world, how can you understand the thoughts of people who truly care about the overall situation! Do you think I just want money? You are too narrow-minded!"
Chu Heyi: "Otherwise, do you still want to ascend the throne and become the empress?"
Runxue's pupils shrank drastically and she stared at her fixedly, as if she had been hit by something.
"For your overall situation, you want to sacrifice our Zhenbei Marquis Mansion? Sacrifice the Xie family? Sacrifice the people of Qingyang City?" Chu Heyi approached her: "Is your overall situation really the overall situation? Or is it a fig leaf for your struggle for power?"
Chu Heyi approached step by step, pushing Runxue into a corner, looking down at her, her voice even sharper than before: "I'm telling you, Princess Cheng, as long as I'm alive, I will never allow you to sacrifice anyone to satisfy your desire for power!"
Qingyang City was just the second Zhenbei Marquis Mansion and Xie Family that were sacrificed and plundered in the previous life.
She would not allow the people of Qingyang City to become victims of Runxue. This was not only to save Qingyang City, but also to save her Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, Xie Mansion, and herself!
Runxue suddenly narrowed her eyes and said something without any context: "Can you and Xie Lin return to Shengjing City alive, Chu Heyi?"
She used all her strength to push Chu Heyi away. Guyu and Baihua, who were standing nearby, immediately rushed forward and stood in front of their respective masters.
Runxue looked at Chu Heyi deeply, a bloodthirsty smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she turned and left. Her back was as straight as a knife, ready to kill at any time and anywhere.
……
After an autumn rain, Qingyang City became cold. Xie Lin and Chu Heyi walked together on the streets of Qingyang City. The houses on both sides were still dilapidated, but were being rebuilt.
The situation gradually stabilized, and there was no need for the two of them to stay in Qingyang City any longer, especially Xie Lin, who, as an official appointed by the imperial court, could not stay any longer.
But how to get back is a very serious question.
The money that Dongfang Shuo and Runxue earned from the Forget-Your-Sorrow Wine was completely lost in Qingyang City. The two of them hated Chu Heyi and wanted to kill her as soon as possible.
In their view, Xie Lin and Chu Heyi are in the same group. If they want to kill Chu Heyi, they will naturally not let Xie Lin go.
It can be seen that the road back to Shengjing City is full of dangers.
That night, Xie Lin and Chu Heyi were sitting in the yard looking at the moon. Suddenly, Xie Lin took out a brocade box from his sleeve pocket, opened it, took out the jade pendant he had worn for many years, squatted in front of Chu Heyi, and personally tied the jade pendant around Chu Heyi's waist.
After finishing, he raised his eyes and met Chu Heyi's eyes that were fixed on him. Xie Lin said, "After returning to Shengjing City, I will go to the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion to propose to you."
As if afraid that she would refuse, he quickly added: "If you accept my jade pendant, you agree to be my wife."
When the word "wife" came out of his mouth, not only Chu Heyi was stunned, but Xie Lin himself was also stunned.
Over the past twenty years, he has been tortured by illness all the time. He never thought that he would meet his sweetheart one day, nor did he dare to think that he would be able to get married in the future.
I originally thought that the word "wife" was a very distant word, but now, it can actually be said from his mouth.
Is it happiness? Is it warmth? Perhaps, there is also the speechless excitement and the nervousness of waiting for her nod!
Under the faint moonlight, Chu Heyi's face gradually turned a light pink. When she looked at Xie Lin's eyes, mist seemed to appear in them.
She wanted to look away, because she couldn't stand Xie Lin's gaze, but she couldn't bear to look away. Such a scene only happened once in her past and present life.
At this moment, Chu Heyi realized belatedly that she had been waiting for his proposal from past life to this life.
The hand on his knee was suddenly grabbed, and a faint warmth came from the other person's palm. Chu Heyi came back to his senses and heard Xie Lin's voice: "Speak."
Chu Heyi was stunned again. What should she say at this time? She had never experienced this before...
She asked from the bottom of her heart, "What should I say?"
"..." Xie Lin pursed his lips. His heart went from nervousness to torment while waiting. She didn't say anything just because she didn't know what to say?
"Say if you'd like to."
His voice was as gentle as the flowing moonlight. Chu Heyi's heart beat violently when she heard it: "But didn't you say that if I took your jade pendant, I would agree to be your wife? When you tied the jade pendant around my waist, I didn't give it back."
Xie Lin was stunned for a moment, and then a smile appeared in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, as if broken rays of light were scattered in the sky, embellishing the boundless sky, which was incredibly beautiful.
The two of them just stared at each other for a long time without saying anything, but Xie Lin held her hand tightly and tightly, refusing to let go.
After an unknown amount of time, Xie Lin spoke again: "We will leave Shengjing City one after another. I will go first, and you can follow slowly behind."
Chu Heyi happened to think the same way. Since Xie Lin didn't know martial arts, it would be better for him to go in front, and she would lead her men to follow behind to stop the Cheng Wang couple from chasing her.
She nodded. "Okay, it's settled. As an official appointed by the court, the court needs you. You should go back before me. And if we go separately, we can disperse the firepower of the King and his wife."
Xie Lin said "hmm", and a faint light flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared in a flash and Chu Heyi did not see it.
The night was long, and they continued to sit side by side in the yard to admire the moon. Chu Heyi suddenly remembered that the last time she said goodbye to him was also under the moonlight. She had a bad feeling in her heart, and she turned to look at Xie Lin.
Xie Lin noticed it, looked at her and smiled at her.
To Heyi, that smile was the brightest light in the vast night, even brighter than the frost and moonlight. It was instantly imprinted in her mind, and she remembered it for a very long time afterwards.
It was also this smile that made her never think of retreating when she faced a thorny road in the near future.
……
Not long after Xie Lin left Qingyang City and set off for Shengjing City, Chu Heyi also set off with his team.
She sent spies to explore the way along the way, and the killers of King Cheng and his wife assassinated them when they passed through the jungle on the second night.
Chu Heyi personally led the team and repelled all the assassins.
Another day passed and it started to rain, but Chu Heyi continued on his journey. King Cheng and his wife were unwilling to give up, and after nightfall they arranged for assassins to chase him.
The number of manpower was more than three times that of before. Chu Heyi was well prepared and arranged a group of people to hold them back, while she took some people and continued to rush towards Shengjing City.
The Cheng Wang couple's target is her. As long as she runs away, the people who hold them back will not be in too much danger.
In the dark night, it was drizzling, and she rode the horse at full speed, crossing the mountains and dense jungles, all the way forward.
With a "whoosh" sound, several arrows flew through the air from the front. Chu Heyi was completely caught off guard and was unable to dodge, and was hit in the arm by an arrow.
The severe pain made her entire shoulder numb. She couldn't help but groan, but she decided not to care about the arrow and just wanted to break through on horseback.
I hope the horse under me won’t get hurt.
Just as she was thinking this, an arrow hit the horse's leg. The horse neighed and fell forward, throwing her into the mud. She rolled in the mud for several times.
Behind her, there were screams from Baihua and others, as well as the sound of raindrops hitting the ground, making a very loud noise.
Before she could get up, two arrows shot at her heart from two different directions.
Trying to dodge left or right, he couldn't avoid it. Chu Heyi thought to himself: I'm going to die here tonight.
In a flash, it seemed as if someone rushed over from the front and side, stood in front of her, hugged her, and used his body to block the fatal arrow for her.
