The king was wrong

"My lord..."

A clear voice came from his ear, as gentle as ever, which brought Wei Yanxi back to his senses.

"I...in fact, I don't want to hide it from the lord, but..." Qi Yaoqing bit her pale lips, not knowing what to say for a while.

"What else do you have to explain?"

Wei Yanxi suddenly let go of his grip, stepped back decadently, put his hands behind his back, and said with a sad expression: "Ten years, this king has missed you for ten years, and I have been thinking about seeing you again all the time. One side. But now, I have finally seen it, but it has such an ending."

Wei Yanxi stared at Qi Yaoqing steadfastly, as if he was looking at another person through him, that person who obviously didn't exist but whom he missed for ten years.

He suddenly began to doubt whether he was right or wrong in his attachment to Little Seven for ten years.

From the first encounter in Yanqiu Mountain that year, Miss Seven was like the only piece of pure land left in his heart, supporting him to survive the long years of mutual calculation and trampling in the palace, supporting him to break through the gates of ghosts time and time again on the battlefield, standing tall. Not to fall, just to see her again in this life.

I thought that when I was successful and famous, the class teacher returned to the court, and when I was a teenager in Xianyi Angma, I would be able to marry Yi Hongxia and live in glory as I wished, but I never thought that now that she is married, she is married, and she is married, but in the end she ends up in such a state. .

The world is impermanent, it is God's will.

Qi Yaoqing stood not far away, looking at Wei Yanxi quietly, seeing the rare powerlessness and pain appearing on his always resolute face, he was in a dilemma for a while.

He had already guessed what would happen if Wei Yanxi knew the truth, so he didn't want to tell him.

But now... After all, I still can't hide it.

"At this point, this king has nothing to say. Forget it, let's think that this king has paid the wrong person for ten years of sincerity."

At this moment, Wei Yanxi is still Prince Yong who is all-powerful on the battlefield?He no longer had the toughness he had before, his whole body collapsed, his expression was indifferent, and he turned his eyes away, unwilling to look at Qi Yaoqing's face that he had missed for ten years.

Qi Yao sighed in a low voice, looked at Wei Yanxi complicatedly, gritted his teeth, and suddenly threw off his robe and knelt down.

"My lord," he said slowly with a tremor in his voice, "It was my fault that I failed to tell my lord what happened at Yanqiu Mountain ten years ago. Now, my lord is willing to accept whatever punishment my lord has to offer."

"Punishment? What is this king punishing you for..." Wei Yanxi shook his head with a wry smile, "This king has liked you for ten years, and I wish I could put the best in front of you. Now there is nothing to punish."

His voice sounded exhausted, Qi Yaoqing knew that he must have suffered a lot today.But even if he couldn't bear it, he still had to sprinkle salt on his wound again.

"My lord," Qi Yaoqing lowered his eyes, and sighed softly, "Since the lord already knows the whole story, then I...have completed the task. I implore the lord to give me a letter of divorce according to the original agreement, so that I Leave the capital, and never appear in front of the prince again."

"Heh, you have completed the task. You have kept this king from hiding it for so long, yet now you are ashamed to say that you have completed the task." Wei Yanxi shook her head with a wry smile, but suddenly recalled it the next moment, and looked at Qi Yaoqing in disbelief: "You... ...You want this king to divorce you?"

After learning what happened ten years ago, Wei Yanxi was angry, annoyed, and even hated. He wanted to question Qi Yaoqing face to face. Why did he keep it from him for so long when he knew the truth of the matter? A piece of sincerity is right to be invisible.

But it never occurred to him to divorce him, not at all.

This is the little seven sister he has been looking forward to for ten years, the person he wants to have most in his life, and now coincides with the imperial brother's decree, he is marrying and welcomes her into the door as a princess, even if he is a man, he is not willing to let it go like this he leaves.

He doesn't want to let him go!

At this moment, Wei Yanxi was very clear: he didn't want Qi Yaoqing to leave!

"Yes."

Qi Yaoqing's face was still calm, he raised his head to look at Wei Yanxi, then quickly lowered his head and said: "At the beginning, the prince promised me that I would let me go and give me a free body on the day when I found Miss Seven. Now, although I'm guilty, but no matter what, I've found him, so naturally I shouldn't stay here any longer, I hope the prince can..."

"Don't go!"

Wei Yanxi clenched her fists, walked towards him quickly, stopped two steps away from him, stared at him firmly and said: "This king has waited for you for ten years and recognized you, but now you are If you insist on wanting this king to divorce you, then who exactly did you pay this king for these ten years of lovesickness?

What he said was full of grief, Qi Yaoqing felt a sharp pain in his chest when he heard it, cold sweat broke out on his forehead for a while, and his face was as pale as paper.

He knelt on the ground, supported the ground with his hands concealed, barely supported the weight of his upper body, tried to pull out a smile, looked at Wei Yanxi gently and said: "My lord, there are nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in life. It has delayed you for ten years, so there should be no more delay."

"You asked who you paid for ten years of lovesickness. I can only say that you did not pay wrongly. It's just that the person was the little sister you saw ten years ago and not the current minister. If you think about it carefully, if you are not Xiaoqi Sister, do you still want to keep the minister today? Since the person you like and miss is not the minister, why bother to trap the minister here..."

"But……"

Wei Yanxi wanted to argue, but she didn't know what to argue.What Qi Yaoqing said was correct, what he was thinking about was the little seven sister ten years ago, not the person in front of him.Since he married into the palace, although he was not treated harshly, he never really treated him kindly.

He is a very nice person, handsome in appearance, easy-going in character, profound in knowledge, brilliant in writing, he himself... is not annoying, is it?

But because his surname is Qi, he was born in Shengguo Duke's mansion, and he is the younger brother of Qi Songjin, the poisoned empress. He was given to Yongwang's mansion by the imperial brother's decree, and he was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, so naturally he would not give him any good looks.

Wei Yanxi asked herself, if Qi Yaoqing wasn't little sister Qi, would she still want to keep him?

Probably... not.

That being the case, what reason do I have to force him to stay?

Qi Yao looked at Wei Yanxi quietly, seeing him frowning deeply, his eyes blank, staring blankly at the ground, wondering what he was thinking about, finally his heart softened, and he couldn't help but speak again.

"My lord," he said softly, "Actually, in my heart... I have always been very grateful to my lord."

Hearing the words, Wei Yanxi looked up at him, puzzled and said: "Why, this king treats you...it shouldn't be considered good."

Unexpectedly, Qi Yaoqing smiled and shook his head, "My lord, is it okay not from the superficial greetings, but from the kindness in my heart."

Obviously, he himself has never tasted love, but Qi Yaoqing's educating Wei Yanxi at this moment really seems to be the case.

"I am grateful to the lord, not because of how much the lord has taken care of me after entering the mansion, but only because the lord has reached out to me three times when I was at my worst."

"Three times to reach out?"

"Yes." Qi Yaoqing nodded.

I don't know if it was because I was frightened when I heard the news about the waist, and now I knelt on the cold ground for too long, Qi Yaoqing's face became more and more ugly, her ears were buzzing, and her body became weaker and weaker. .

But he still insisted on finishing the conversation with Wei Yanxi.

"When I got married that day, I didn't pass through the front yard, and was led directly out of my yard by my waist. I thought that the prince was angry and would embarrass the minister, but I didn't expect the prince and the courtiers to stretch out their hands and call the minister." Princess'. This is the first time."

"Father lost face in front of the guests, chased him out of the house, and publicly reprimanded his ministers for not knowing etiquette and filial piety, and even had a dispute with the waist. It was the prince who called for a stop, resolved the dispute, and prevented the Duke's Mansion and the Chief Assistant Mansion from forming an enmity. At that time, the prince once again extended his hand to the minister, asking if he would go back with you. This is the second time."

"On the day of returning to the door, at the gate of the Duke's Mansion, the prince was in front, and the minister was far behind. I thought the prince would not care about the minister, but you stopped, turned around and called the minister, and the courtier stretched out his hand. This is the third time."

Qi Yaoqing counted all the past one by one, with a flat and gentle tone, like a cup of warm tea in a spring afternoon, in his mouth, although there is no strong aroma, it can be remembered.

It is this seemingly trivial little thing that often touches people's hearts more.

"I know that the emperor forced the prince to marry me, and the prince is not willing. But no matter what, the prince still gave the minister the respect he deserves, and the minister is naturally grateful." His breathing was obviously rapid, and there was a faint cold sweat on his forehead It's a risk, but Wei Yanxi is immersed in extreme shock at the moment, so she didn't notice it.

"Now that the lord knows the truth of ten years ago, I think I can let go of my obsession with Miss Seven. Since this is the case, I should not continue to stay with the lord and ruin your marriage for nothing. The lord is extraordinary and famous. There should be a better marriage, I only hope that one day, I can hear the good news from the prince again, and know that the prince is well and the concubine is well, that is... enough."

At the end, Qi Yao was as clear as a spring, feeling as if all her strength had been drained.He finally pulled out a gentle smile towards Wei Yanxi, unable to support his heavy body any longer, his eyes darkened, and he slowly fell backwards.

His smile is gentle and warm, still clear, just like ten years ago, but more elegant and connotative than ten years ago.

Wei Yanxi was stunned, and felt for the first time that maybe she likes...he in front of her eyes more than Xiaoqi sister ten years ago...
