The king was wrong

The two talked casually again, until finally Qi Yaoqing was able to confirm that the battle between Lanchao and Beidi had been settled, and that Wei Yanxi would win with or without Wei Yanxi, so he was completely relieved.

They had a good rest in the palace for two days, and when Qi Yaoqing's complexion became more rosy, Wei Yanxi finally rested his mind and stopped pouring large and small soup bowls of tonic into his mouth every day.

Wei Yanxi knew very well that there was no delay in leaving the capital, and the longer it was delayed, the more likely to change, so when Qi Yaoqing got better, she went to the palace again alone.

Qi Yaoqing naturally knew why he entered the palace, but if Wei Yanxi really made up his mind to leave the capital, he still had something to do.For example, seeing Zhu Yaozi again, and for example, caring about the current situation of Qi Xiaosu and the others in prison.After all, they are relatives connected by his own blood. Even after years of harsh treatment, Qi Yaoqing still couldn't bear to completely ignore them.

He first asked Zhu Yaozi to meet, and then, accompanied by Zhu Yaozi, went to the prison where Qi Xiaosu and the others were staying.

"Are you really planning to go with him?" On the way there, Zhu Yaozi pursed her lips and thought for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask Qi Yaoqing.

"Yeah." Qi Yaoqing nodded, "Since I'm married to him, I will naturally follow him. If he wants to leave the capital, I will follow him. Besides...hehe, Yaozi, you don't know that the capital has long since disappeared. My place of shelter is gone, why should I stay here any longer, I don’t even know if I lose my life someday.”

What he said was the truth, Wei Chengtian now regards him as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh, and he definitely won't let him go easily, but because Wei Yanxi was caught in the middle, he didn't take any action.

But when it comes to this point, Qi Yaoqing still has doubts in his heart.It stands to reason that as long as Wei Yanxi left the capital, he was locked up in the prison for as long as possible. If Wei Chengtian really wanted his life, he could do it in the next few months. There was no need to delay until Wei Yanxi got the news and rushed from the north return.

What was Wei Chengtian thinking?Why is this emperor who has always been vigorous and resolute so indecisive this time, and has been reluctant to attack him for so long?Does he have any scruples?

Qi Yaoqing couldn't figure it out, the only thing on his mind right now was Wei Yanxi.No matter where Wei Yanxi goes or whatever decision he makes, he will obey. This is his consciousness as Princess Yong.

Of course, maybe in the near future, Wei Yanxi will no longer be King Yong, and he, Princess Yong, can also retire after success.

"Well, since you've made your decision, I won't say much. In short, you just do what you want. I will always support you."

Beside him, Zhu Yaozi sighed softly, looking at Qi Yaoqing's face which was much more ruddy and more energetic than before in the prison, Zhu Yaozi couldn't help but sigh, this King Yong is really capable, and it won't take a few days Just keep him like this, it seems that he is really the only good medicine for Qi Yaoqing.

"Ok, I know."

Qi Yaoqing nodded happily and smiled, obviously not surprised by Zhu Yaozi's words.Friends who have been friends for more than [-] years can understand everything with just one look at each other.

"My lord told me that I will visit the mountains and rivers in the future, and I vow to travel all over this vast land, but I will never go back to the capital. You are the son of the chief assistant. If there is no accident, you will definitely embark on an official career and stay in the capital." , if this is the case, maybe we really... will never see each other again."

Speaking of this, Qi Yaoqing's voice was slightly lowered, but he quickly smiled at Zhu Yaozi and said boldly: "But as the saying goes, a confidant in the sea is like a neighbor at the end of the world, waist, you and I have been friends for 20 years , even if we don’t see each other, our hearts are still close.”

Hearing what he said, Zhu Yaozi's face softened a lot, nodded and said: "Well, that's the reason, if I can be released as an official in the future, Yao Qing, you have to remember to visit me from time to time, otherwise I will It's so lonely."

"Ha, with your young master Zhu's ability, how can you still feel lonely?" Qi Yaoqing couldn't help laughing, "If you are really released to be an official, I'm afraid that the first one to flourish in that place will be the brothel Chuguan."

"Hey, why are you talking like that?"

Although it is true that he likes to go shopping in brothels when he has nothing to do, but Qi Yaoqing pointed it out so bluntly, even if he is as cheeky as Zhu Yaozi, he still can't help it.

"I'm not wrong." Qi Yaoqing waved his hand nonchalantly, "You can hide your hobbies from others but not from me, so you can take it easy."

"you……"

The two bumped into each other like this, exchanging words from time to time, and in a blink of an eye they arrived at the prison where Qi Xiaosu and the others were being held.

Zhu Yaozi said a few words to the guards, because this is not a sky prison, and the security is not so strict, so Zhu Yaozi only stuffed some money and successfully cleared them, allowing Qi Yaoqing to go in.

"You...really going in by yourself?" Before entering the door, Zhu Yaozi stopped Qi Yaoqing, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked hesitantly.

"Yeah." Qi Yaoqing nodded, knowing what he was worried about, "Don't worry, I'm fine, and besides, they are down and out now, and they probably don't want too many people to see them."

Although Zhu Yaozi was a little worried, he still didn't stop him, and only gave some money to the guards so that they could take care of Qi Yaoqing, and then he stood there and waited for him to come out.

There is no light in the gloomy prison, and the smell of corruption and mold is everywhere, which is not pleasant.Qi Yaoqing followed the guard around two turns, and finally saw the familiar man sitting in the prison door not far away.

It was Qi Xiaosu.

Because Qi Xiaosu was the famous Sheng Guogong and a man, naturally he was not locked up with the female relatives of the Zhao family.And Qi Yaoqing's younger brothers who were concubines were locked up next door to Qi Xiaosu with Qi Haoyuan. When they saw Qi Yaoqing coming, they immediately ran to the iron gate, shouting indistinctly while reaching out their hands to think. Grab Qi Yaoqing's hem.

"Second...Second brother, are you here to save us!"

They shouted one after another, the appearance of the former rich and noble son was completely gone, and now he is more desolate and desolate.

Qi Yaoqing glanced at them, paused in his steps, but still couldn't bear it, he made a bend in the middle and walked over, took off the money bag around his waist without any trace, and stuffed it into the hand of the disheveled brother.

Now he is also wearing a sinful body, and there is only so much he can help them.

The movement here naturally alarmed Qi Xiaosu who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed. He slowly opened his eyes. When he saw Qi Yaoqing who was only separated from him by a prison door, his pupils shrank obviously, as if he was a little surprised. Thinking that his son would stand in front of him unscathed.

"Princess, all the prisoners here are serious criminals. According to the rules, you should not come in to visit, but...hehe, since you are here, my brothers will not stop you, but you can't go in, I still hope you Forgive me, if you have anything to say, just say it through the iron gate."

Qi Yaoqing knew that it was not easy for these guards to do this, so naturally he would not say anything more at the moment, but nodded gratefully at him and said, "Thank you, thank you."

The guards left, and only Qi Yaoqing and Qi Xiaosu who were separated by an iron gate were left in the small space, as well as a few bastards who had been crying all the time next door.

"Father."

The two looked at each other in silence for a long time, and in the end it was Qi Yaoqing who spoke first.

"Well, here you are."

Qi Xiaosu snorted sullenly, turned his eyes to the ground, and his expression was a little stiff.

Qi Yao quietly looked at his old father, only to feel that he was so old that he could hardly recognize him within a few months.Qi Xiaosu's temples were gray and his complexion was sallow, covered with deep and shallow creases. He was no longer the high-spirited prince of the country.

Qi Yao sighed in an inaudible manner, "Father, my son heard that the Holy Spirit ordered you to be exiled to the frontier in the spring of next year. Father, is that so?"

"...Mmm." Qi Xiaosu said a simple word, but after all, he couldn't suppress the trill in it, revealing what he was thinking in his heart at the moment.

Qi Yaoqing nodded, and after a moment of silence, said softly: "I'm sorry, father, this matter... my son can't help you."

It is difficult for him to protect himself now, and it is not easy to save a life, so how can he still have the energy to make plans for Qi Xiaosu and the others?It's just that it was his father who gave birth to him and raised him after all, so Qi Yaoqing couldn't convince himself to completely let them ignore him.

"But father, my son has mentioned it to the prince. He should have arranged some manpower in advance. Naturally, when you go to the frontier, you won't have such an easy life in Kyoto, but more or less...you should be able to live on."

He knows his family well, but Zhao's family started late, and when she married Qi Xiaosu, he had already established a firm foothold in the capital.And Ke's concubines were brought in later, and they had never experienced any hardships, so even their children were well-raised one by one, without any hardship.It's a long way to go to the frontier, I'm afraid they won't be able to persevere before they reach their destination.

Qi Xiaosu raised his head in disbelief, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, as if he didn't expect Qi Yaoqing to ask Wei Yanxi to take care of them.He thought that he had not treated his second son kindly, even though he was his only orthodox son.

Thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the past, when Qi Yaoqing's biological mother, Wen Shi, was still there, when the husband and wife were harmonious, and the qin and harp played harmoniously. It's also fun.

It was just because of my growing ambition that I took those women into the backyard. Although I experienced a different kind of style, I couldn't find the warm and happy days before.

When people get old, they always like to recall the past, especially now that Qi Xiaosu is a prisoner, and his dignity and status are all gone, so he can't help but sigh and sigh, his impulsiveness back then ruined what should have been a happy and comfortable life.

Seeing his doubts, Qi Yaoqing smiled helplessly. Sure enough, in his father's eyes, as a son, he could only hate him.

"Father, don't be surprised. I'm also a son of the Qi family, your own son. If the Qi family is in trouble, I will naturally not ignore it. It's just that I can't protect myself now, and I can only do so much for you."

"King Yong... how will he treat you?" After a pause, Qi Xiaosu suddenly raised his face and asked him.

Qi Yaoqing was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what he meant by asking this, but he nodded without thinking too much, "My lord treats me very well, I was imprisoned in the sky prison earlier, and it was my lord who rushed back to the capital without sleep and rescued me. "

Speaking of Wei Yanxi, Qi Yaoqing's expression softened a lot, and trust and nostalgia slowly appeared in his eyes, which fell into Qi Xiaosu's eyes, which made him heave a sigh of relief.

"Okay, that's good." He took a deep breath, and sighed: "My Qi family has completely fallen overnight, and I can't bear to implicate you as a father. Now fortunately, the prince is protecting you, you should be in this life." All right."

Speaking of this, he laughed at himself, suddenly looked up at the dark prison roof, and said: "Just think that your late mother has a spirit in the sky, huh, ridiculous, ridiculous, I didn't expect your tragic death in the cold palace Your sister really chose the right marriage for you back then."

The "sister" he mentioned naturally refers to Qi Songjin.Qi Yaoqing was taken aback when he heard the words, pursed his lips, and suddenly smiled lowly after a while: "Well, yes. She has worked hard in this life, and she is very calculating. I only hope that she will join an ordinary family in the next life, and don't pursue this person again. The honorable status above ten thousand people must endure so much suffering again."

Having lost his beloved woman, Wei Chengtian has been in pain for so many years.But from another point of view, the person next to him who loves his pillow never wants to take his life, how can he know that Qi Songjin is not in pain?

The word love is too entangled and implicated. If you use the wrong love, it will be a lifetime of pain.
