Chapter 91:

Food and grass are scarce in the army, not to mention medicinal materials. Those who can take medicine are mostly nobles and poor generals with some status. However, most of the real leaders of Guizhou can only endure their injuries and come to see a doctor. I can only find some linen cloth for them and wrap it around the injured area a few times.

Xue Li rummaged around and found that there were not many herbs, so he might have to order someone to go to a nearby town to buy them.

The doctor and his wife took great care of Xue Li. Knowing that she was from a noble family and had never done any hard work, they only allowed her to cook medicine and watch the fire, and occasionally add firewood and water to fan herself.

Xue Li always kept his own body in mind, and he was not idle when he was boiling medicine. He looked for medical books and read them, so he had the opportunity to prepare the medicine himself.

However, all the good things in the world are controlled by wealthy families, and the same is true for medical skills. The medical books compiled by several famous doctors are only in the libraries of wealthy families, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see them in this life. Otherwise, no one would work hard to become a disciple of the Wei family, just to spend a few hours in the Wei family's library.

The medical book in Xue Li's hand was compiled by someone unknown. The pages were very old, and she always had to be careful when reading them to avoid accidentally damaging them. It is difficult for people from poor families to have access to famous calligraphy, so their handwriting can only be correct, which is far from enough for viewing. However, she did not expect that the handwriting was ugly and sometimes contained typos.

Xue Li was hesitant in her heart. She didn't know if she was pregnant. If she was, then she would definitely not have the child. If not, drinking the decoction by mistake would only cause abdominal pain for a few days, at least it would not kill her and Wei Jie.

After rummaging through the medical books to find the method of abortion, Xue Li found only three usable medicinal materials in the doctor's box of medicinal materials. He still had a few more medicinal materials to go to a nearby town to buy. It's just that there are wars everywhere, there is no human habitation for ten miles, there is no rooster crowing for hundreds of miles, and I don't know if I can find a medicine shop.

While he was in distress, a call came from behind him. "Ms. Li, why are you here?"

Zhao Ying saw Xue Li's back and immediately ran towards her with the rabbit in hand.

Xue Li was reading a medical book. When he saw him coming, he folded a corner of the medical book and quickly closed it.

"Brother, why are you here? How are you these days?"

Smelling the pungent smell of the soup, Zhao Ying frowned and said, "The smell is really bad, why did Ms. Li think of coming here?

Xue Li laughed guiltily and said, "My brother and my adoptive father fought bravely on the battlefield, but I was doing nothing under your protection. I felt guilty and could only do trivial things for the soldiers. " "

Zhao Ying felt even more moved when he heard her words, and his eyes softened. He wanted to reach out and touch the side of Xue Li's face, but then he remembered that he had a rabbit in his hand, so he gave the rabbit in front of Xue Li. She sent it off and said as if to offer a treasure: "I hunted a rabbit for you on the way back. You have lost a lot of weight during this period. I will cook it to replenish your body. You can also make some gadgets from the rabbit skin."

She said . He smiled and said, "If Yun Niang knew that my brother was partial, she would definitely be unhappy." "

Don't mention her to me, it will be annoying if you mention her." Zhao Ying's face darkened, and his tone was cold. "My father doesn't know what he is planning in his heart. He just thinks highly of Wei Jie, but he actually plans to give Yun Niang to him. Knowing that Wei Jie is deeply scheming and his character is not to be complimented, how can he neglect Yun Niang's life? It's a big deal. I wanted to persuade her again, but Yun Niang was so confused that she was stunned by Wei Jie's appearance and happily agreed."

When Zhao Ying mentioned this, he felt tight in the chest and short of breath. If it hadn't been for someone If he stopped him, he would definitely beat Wei Jie up.

Seeing that Xue Li was stunned and silent, he asked again: "You also think she is confused, don't you?" The

pungent and bitter medicinal smell made Xue Li breathless. She lowered her eyes and nodded slowly.

"I'm a little confused."

The Xia family stationed in Hongnong County is a wealthy family and has a close relationship with the Xiahou family, and reinforcements are needed from other places. This year's war was raging, food was more expensive than gold, and people could be seen eating each other everywhere. Zhao Tong didn't want to waste too much time, but he still couldn't capture it despite using many soldiers and horses. He was already getting irritated, thinking about trying to win over the barbarians in the north. .

In the name of buying medicinal materials, Xue Li sent people to nearby towns to buy them. Unexpectedly, this year was really turbulent, and wars started to massacre cities, burn, kill and loot. Everywhere the rebels went was deserted. The owners of the medical clinic have all fled, and the people in the city have difficulty even having enough food, let alone the time to collect medicines. More than a hundred kinds of medicinal materials were collected here and there, but two flavors were still missing.

Fortunately, these two medicinal materials are not uncommon and often grow in the mountains and fields. Xue Li should be able to find them if he searches carefully.

It was about Xue Li's life, and she didn't want to delay it for too long, so she found an excuse to go for a walk in the mountains. Just when Zhao Yun came to look for her, she saw the attendant beside Xue Li carrying a basket and asked, "Where are you going?" When

Xue Li saw Zhao Yun and thought of what Zhao Ying said, his heart sank and his expression changed. But she didn't change, and said softly: "The medicinal materials in the army are not enough. It just so happens that I have nothing to do recently. I want to go to the mountains to relax and collect some medicine. Why is Yun Niang here too, but something is wrong? Looking for me?"

Before Xue Li took the initiative to ask about her marriage, Zhao Yun blushed, glanced at her shyly, and whispered: "There is indeed something I want to ask you, I just mentioned it to you, you Don't bother me like your brother."

Knowing what she was going to say, Xue Li became a little impatient. He suppressed a smile and said, "How can I upset you? Just say it."

Zhao Yun looked happy and immediately went up He hugged her arm and said with a smile: "I just happened to be tired of staying in the camp, so I went with you."

Xue Li had no reason to refuse, so he could only let her follow him.

In autumn, the grass and trees on the mountain also begin to wither, and a thick layer of fallen leaves accumulates, making a rustling sound when stepped on. Xue Li walked very slowly, holding a branch in his hand and fidgeting with the surrounding forest leaves as he walked.

Zhao Yun urged: "It's just a few herbs. Why bother to be so careful? You didn't hear what I just said."

Xue Li just didn't want to pay attention to it. Zhao Yun is a little girl, only sixteen years old. If she wants to ask Regarding things related to Wei Jie, it is difficult to say based on her status.

"It's my fault. What did Yun Niang say just now?" Xue Li straightened up and looked at her. Zhao Yun put her hands on her hips and said, " Let me ask

you, what do you think about my marriage?"

He is an outsider. Marriage matters are always decided by the parents. Since it is the adoptive father's wish, I can't say much."

Zhao Yun saw that she was perfunctory and obviously didn't want to talk more, so she turned cold and refused to talk to her.

Xue Li pretended not to notice her displeasure and continued to collect herbs on his own. He walked most of the mountain until his legs and feet were so tired that he dug up anything that looked similar and threw it into the basket, regardless of whether he found the right one. Go back and distinguish carefully.

Zhao Yun couldn't bear it any longer and said displeasedly: "I have something to ask you."

Xue Li patted the dust on his hands and said casually: "It's okay to speak frankly."

Zhao Yun hesitated, then pointed at her Several attendants behind him said: "There are no assassins here. Mother Li and I have something to say. You are waiting for us at the foot of the mountain. You are not allowed to follow us."

Xue Li hesitated, nodded, and said: "Go Let's go."

After the two people walked away, Zhao Yun asked her: "I'll ask you again, what do you think of my marriage to Wei Lanzhang."

"Why do you want to know what I'm thinking?" Xue Li smiled. "If I don't agree, can this marriage be ignored?"

Zhao Yun said dullly: "Why is it bad? Is it bad because you don't like him?"

Xue Li glanced at the sky and sighed: " It’s getting late, and some things will be the same when we go back, so why don’t we go down the mountain first.”

Zhao Yun said stubbornly: "You think Wei Lanzhang is not good because you have let him down before and angered him, so he treats you like this. Everyone knows that he has a clean and upright style and will not do anything inappropriate. Maybe you had some misunderstanding with him... Now that he is in trouble, my father has treated him with kindness, and I have kept myself clean and have never done anything out of line with others. It is more than enough to match him..."

Zhao Yun I just said these words to say that she first let down Wei Jie and then got entangled with Liang Yan. She was not a woman of good character. To excuse Wei Jie again, it was not that Wei Jie treated her badly, but that she resented Wei Jie for slandering him out of personal grudge. After all, no one could verify what she said.

Xue Li listened expressionlessly, really not wanting to argue with Zhao Yun. After all, Zhao Yun's words were indeed not an injustice to her. Considering Wei Jie's current situation, President Zhao was willing to reuse Wei Jie and even wanted to marry his daughter to him. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a gift of reincarnation. With Wei Jie's talent and appearance, just standing there can make people dream. There are mostly rough and arrogant men in the army, but Wei Jie is a man who can stand out from the crowd everywhere, and now his appearance is even more impressive. Zhao Yun is still young, so it is not unusual for her to fall in love with him.

Xue Li had no intention of ridiculing Zhao Yun, so he nodded and replied: "What Yun Niang said is that Mr. Wei is an excellent person. If you marry him, you will definitely be a couple of gods and immortals." How did he

know that these words fell to Zhao Yun ? The sarcasm still sounded in her ears, and she immediately said angrily: "You are just...you just have a good skin. Wei Lanzhang is not a simple person...how can I be inferior to you." "

This is natural." Xue Li continued Saying what she wanted made Zhao Yun even more angry.

Zhao Yun muttered a few more words, and then walked forward without saying a word. Xue Li followed her unhurriedly, and when she saw her, she suddenly turned around and glared at her, saying: " Is he really related to you... to you..."

Zhao Yun's face turned red from holding back, and she was embarrassed to say it. Xue Li guessed that she wanted to talk about skin-to-skin intimacy, and said softly: "Mr. Wei is not a man of few desires. ."

Zhao Yun didn't expect her to be so calm, her face changed, and she was very angry in her heart. Although she knew that Xue Li was telling the truth, it was always different when she heard it with her own ears.

Xue Li saw that Zhao Yun's face was very ugly, and he thought about whether he should comfort her. After all, in her eyes, Wei Jie should be a reviled immortal who did not eat fireworks, how could he hang out with a woman with nothing like her.

However, before she could speak, Zhao Yun turned around angrily and strode forward, as if he wanted to leave her behind.

Xue Li was too tired to move, and had no intention of coaxing Zhao Yun, so he had to follow from a distance. After walking for a while, he saw Zhao Yun tilting her body, screaming and falling down.

When Xue Li came closer, he realized that Zhao Yun had twisted his foot, and his expression was distorted in pain.

When Zhao Yun saw Xue Li coming to help her, she felt humiliated again, lowered her head and began to sob.

Xue Li had no choice but to squat down and comfort her. It took a while to coax Zhao Yun out of his anger. However, Zhao Yun was seriously injured. The pain was unbearable when she moved, and she refused to wait alone in the mountains for Xue Li to call someone. , in the end it was Xue Li who could only carry her on his back.

The mountain road was already rugged, with tree roots and raised rocks buried under the fallen leaves. Xue Li had to worry about his feet when walking. Now he had to carry Zhao Yun on his back, so he walked even slower.

Zhao Yun urged dissatisfiedly: "It's getting dark. When can we go down the mountain?"

Xue Li suppressed his anger and said in a good voice: "Then you wait here, I will go down the mountain to find someone."

"No."

Xue Li was so tired that he felt angry in his heart. He accidentally fell to the side with his feet. He fell to the ground with Zhao Yun and rolled twice. There were a lot of fallen leaves on his clothes and hair. They were both in a mess. .

Zhao Yun exhaled in pain and said something to Xue Li angrily. After reluctantly getting up, she saw Xue Li sitting motionless on the fallen leaves like her, and urged: "What are you still doing? It's getting dark." " I'm sorry. I also injured my foot just now and

can't move. Let's wait here together."

He refused to get up and take her down the mountain again.

After dark, the guards at the foot of the mountain would naturally go up the mountain to look for them. If she forced Zhao Yun to carry Zhao Yun down the mountain, they might roll down the hillside together.

Xue Li thought so and rested peacefully against the tree. It wasn't until the night fell, and there were occasional rustling sounds in the mountains and forests, and even the howling of wolves could be heard in the distance, that Zhao Yun felt scared and approached cautiously, holding her arms and sobbing quietly.

"Don't be afraid, this mountain is not big. Someone will be here soon."

After she comforted Zhao Yun, she still sat still. It wasn't until she heard some footsteps that she looked towards the source of the noise.

The light from the torch danced in the darkness, Wei Jie's face was vaguely visible, and his sleeves were puffed up high like a white crane flapping its wings.

When Zhao Yun saw the visitor, her sobbing gradually stopped.

Xue Li was unhappy and waited silently for Wei Jie to approach. He seemed to be able to hear his sigh in the darkness.

After a while, Wei Jie knelt down in front of her and said helplessly: "Ms. Li, what's wrong?"

Chapter 92 When

Xue Li saw Wei Jie, he felt a little angry and turned away from him. Zhao Yunxian, who was on the side, whispered: "Wei Langjun..." "Is

the princess okay?" Wei Jie was talking. , as if nothing had happened, he reached out his hand and picked off the dead leaves on the top of Xue Li's hair.

Zhao Yun originally had something to say, but her eyes changed when she saw this, her tone became serious, and she said, "Why are you here?"

"It's not just me, the prince is also looking for the princess, and he should arrive soon. ."

Hearing this, Xue Li glanced at Wei Jie, stood up holding the tree, patted her clothes, and said lightly: "Mother Yun sprained her foot. I'm afraid she won't be able to move around. Could you please carry her back?"

Zhao Yun was just here. The father and brother were a little squeamish around them, but they were not unreasonable. Now they calmed down and were no longer angry. Besides, Xue Li was injured because of her fall. After hesitating for a while, he asked: "What should you do? You are also injured..."

"It's just a minor injury. It will be fine after you rest. Don't worry about me." Xue Li was not really injured. She was just worried that Zhao Yun would force her to carry her down the mountain and something bad would happen if she fell on the way, so she refused to get up. . Now that Wei Jie is here, she doesn't want to stay in the dark forest.

However, after she finished speaking, Wei Jie only helped Zhao Yun up and made no other actions.

Zhao Yun glanced at Wei Jie and couldn't help but tug at Xue Li's sleeve. She had to say: "Wei Langjun is unwilling?"

Wei Jie said calmly: "I'm not unwilling, but unfortunately I was injured yesterday. My arm has no strength. If I accidentally hurt the princess, it will be my fault. The prince will arrive soon, please wait for a while."

Although Zhao Yun didn't know the truth of Wei Jie's words, she could Hearing his refusal, I could only nod in despair, and stood there waiting obediently. Then she carefully looked at Xue Li's expression and saw that she really didn't want to see Wei Jie, so she gradually dispelled her doubts.

Xue Li refused to pay attention to Wei Jie, and he didn't say much. Soon Zhao Ying came with the waiter. When he saw Zhao Yun's guilty expression, he immediately straightened his face and asked: "Are you in trouble again?"

Xue Li explained: "Mother Yun is also afraid of me. Boring wanted to come and accompany me, but I didn't take good care of her and she sprained her foot. Brother, please don't blame her too much."

Zhao Ying glanced at Zhao Yun angrily and said, "It doesn't make people worry." The one

who spoke At that time, he also gave Wei Jie a vicious look. Wei Jie's expression remained unchanged, as if he could not sense the hidden meaning of his words.

Zhao Yun was also a little aggrieved. When she saw Zhao Ying coming, she immediately complained in a low voice.

Zhao Ying had no choice but to sigh and lean over, and said helplessly: "Come up quickly."

Zhao Yun climbed up obediently. He looked at Wei Jie again and said in a bad tone: "You came here to look for someone, why are you standing there? Morning? He said you don't have to go up the mountain, it's useless even if you come..."

Zhao Yun immediately patted him and said, "Mr. Wei is also kind-hearted, how can my brother say such things?"

He gritted his teeth and said: "If you say one more thing, I will be on the mountain tonight. Go to bed."

Zhao Yun immediately fell silent and listened to Zhao Ying scolding him twice, but did not dare to refute.

Xue Li glanced at Wei Jie and followed Zhao Ying silently. Several guards held torches to escort him. Apart from the rustling of leaves in the quiet mountain forest, there was only Zhao Ying's constant scolding.

Xue Li was too preoccupied to stir up the quarrel between the siblings. He only looked carefully at his feet to avoid accidentally stepping on the wrong foot and falling down. Wei Jie was neither far nor near, following her quietly like a shadow.

Zhao Ying would look back at Xue Li at first, but in the end Zhao Yun was so angry that he cried and had to rush to take her down the mountain to see her injuries, leaving Xue Li and the guards far behind.

Xue Li, with a lot of thoughts in his mind, carefully walked down the tree trunk, but suddenly heard a crashing sound behind him. He turned around and saw Wei Jie staggering two steps, barely holding on to the tree to stand still.

He pursed his thin lips tightly, stood up straight, and said as if nothing had happened, "It's okay, let's go."

Xue Li refused to move anymore.

She said angrily: "You know that you can't see clearly, why do you want to go up the mountain to cause trouble?"

Wei Jie was not annoyed by her slightly mean and unkind words, but just lowered his eyes helplessly and whispered: "Ms. Li, you should know that I have nothing to do with Zhao Yun."

Xue Li was stunned for a moment, feeling that he was venting his anger on Wei Jie. It's just that she was worried about her pregnancy, and she heard that Zhao Yun was interested in Wei Jie, which made her feel more and more uneasy. She didn't know who to tell her depression to, so she felt aggrieved when she saw him now.

She always believed that in the face of power, affection would become ethereal and weak. Even if Wei Jie treated her well, she would still be afraid that Wei Jie would weigh it and abandon her.

People can't want everything. She is really not good to Wei Jie. How can she make him value her consistently?

"I..." She wanted to say something, but didn't know how to say it, so she had to ask him in a low voice: "Are you really hurt?"

"It's just a lie, don't worry about me." His words fell off, but they were missed again. At one point, Xue Li hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

Wei Jie took advantage of the situation and held her hand, whispering: "Excuse me, please take me down the mountain."

Xue Li hurriedly pulled his hand away and reminded him in a low voice: "There are guards ahead."

"I brought him, no one." It's something."

Then she held him with peace of mind and reminded him of the tree roots and rocks under his feet. When they were almost at the foot of the mountain, Wei Jie finally asked: "Ms. Li, what's the matter with the medicinal fragrance on your body?"

A flash of panic flashed in Xue Li's eyes, and he quickly pretended to be fine and said: "I'm in the army. I had nothing to do and went to the doctor a few times. Maybe I contracted it at that time." "

I remember that you hate taking medicine."

"You will get used to it after drinking too much."

Wei Jie was silent and did not ask any more questions. , when they reached the foot of the mountain, Zhao Ying had already pushed Zhao Yun onto the horse and sat down. Seeing Wei Jie next to Xue Li, he immediately ran over to separate them and asked her with concern: "Did he offend you just now?"

Xue Li shook his head. Zhao Ying glared at Wei Jie again and said coldly: "For the sake of my father, I can forget about the past. From now on, you should stay away from my sister and Li Niang. Since you and I are colleagues, It also saves people from being laughed at if something happens."

Wei Jie raised his eyes, glanced at him lightly, and did not comment on his words. Then Zhao Ying strode away, and without waiting for Xue Li to say anything to the guards, he picked Xue Li up on his horse. "Yun Niang said you are also injured, so you should go back and rest quickly..."

She nodded helplessly, glanced at Wei Jie's figure from a distance, then leaned over and whispered to the guard: "Send the medicine collected today first. Remember to stay away from Wei Jie at the doctor's office..."

After the explanation, she left with peace of mind.

After she left, Wei Jie stopped where he was. The waiter asked, "Mr. Wei, do you want to go back and have a rest?"

He lowered his head, slowly smoothed the creases on his sleeves caused by Xue Li, and said, "No hurry. ."

Helping the doctor to cook medicine...

How could he not know when Xue Li became kind?

Early the next morning, Xue Li went to the doctor's tent again. When she thought of having to stay next to the bitter and unpleasant medicine jar all day again, she couldn't help but sigh, and even her steps became much heavier.

Early in the morning, the doctor and his wife were busy treating the soldiers' injuries. When they saw Xue Li's figure, the lady holding the basket quickly said, "Mrs. Xue is here. Someone is looking for you. They have been waiting here for a long time."

"Looking for me." ?" Xue Li thought of Zhao Yun, couldn't help but frown, and asked: "Where?"

She pointed in a direction, which was exactly where Xue Li sighed and cooked medicine every day.

Xue Li walked quickly, but when she got closer, what she saw was not Zhao Yun's figure, which made her feel even more headache.

The heat coming out of the medicine jar was rising, rolling and dissipating like clouds. Xue Li always had to cover his mouth and nose and stay away from the incense aroma. Wei Jie sat among them without changing his expression, holding a cattail leaf fan in one hand to fan the wind, and flipping through the medical books on his lap with the other.

Hearing the footsteps, he did not raise his head, but silently turned another page of the medical book and smoothed out the creases left by Xue Li at the corners of the book.

"Don't you want to say something?"

His tone was quite calm. He raised his head to look at her, but his cold eyes suppressed the surging anger.

When Xue Li saw that the herbs she had collected so hard yesterday were piled at Wei Jie's feet, she knew that she could no longer hide them. She pursed her lips and said nothing, looking back without any sign of weakness, without any intention of acknowledging her mistake.

Wei Jieyin kept his anger and suddenly sneered and threw the medical book into the burning fire.

"Xue Li, I really don't know how to say good things to you."

Meeting Wei Jie's eyes, Xue Li's heart trembled, and he pretended to be calm and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, it is my own decision, don't you dare Take care of it."

Xue Li didn't know how long Wei Jie had been waiting here. The whites of his eyes were covered with large red bloodshot eyes. He was so angry with her at this moment that he clenched his fingers into fists, and his knuckles turned blue and white from the force. .

Wei Jie stared at Xue Li for a while, the ends of his eyes gradually turned red, he stood up straight, gritted his teeth and said: "You say again, it has nothing to do with me?

Chapter 93

When Xue Li saw Wei Jie's expression, his aura became a little weak, but he still didn't mean to admit his mistake. He responded: "It doesn't make any difference to me whether you know it or not, not to mention that I am just guessing in my heart. , I may not really be pregnant, I just want to..."

Before Xue Li finished speaking, Wei Jie understood her intention and was so angry that she sneered.

"You're thinking, if you're not pregnant, it doesn't matter if you drink the decoction. If you are, this decoction is useful. But it can't change your mind anyway, so you don't need to tell me. You just need to tell me about it quietly. Hiding it, right?"

Wei Jie's tone was full of anger, and his eyes seemed to turn into knives to cut her open.

Xue Li didn't feel that he was wrong in the slightest, and became annoyed when faced with his questioning. "So what, what I did was wrong. Since the result can't be changed, so what if you know it. It's just adding to the worries and adding more trouble..."

Wei Jie crushed the herbs on the ground under his feet and stared at them intently. He grabbed her, then pulled her in front of him, and pressed her down to read the medical books that were burned in the fire.

"I'm afraid that you will kill yourself without knowing it. There are countless errors and omissions in these folk medical books, and the use of medicine is extremely dangerous. It is a blessing for ten people to use the medicine, and it will be effective for one person. Countless women have died due to miscarriage, you How many lives do you think you can bear such a torment?" Wei Jie's hand clasped her waist, and the other hand held Xue Li's struggling hands, and asked: "It has nothing to do with me? How did you get pregnant? "You're pregnant, do you want me to remind you again?"

Xue Li's panic was like a flooded river bank. She pretended to be calm and wanted to do something to repair it, but at this moment, she was completely defeated by Wei Jie's words and almost The restlessness and grievances of the past days came up like a tide, overwhelming her and making her breathless.

Her eyes immediately began to turn red, and then tears fell down without warning. The warm tears hit Wei Jie's hand, but they seemed to have heat that could burn him, making his hand tremble slightly, and the strength immediately Then he relaxed.

Wei Jie only felt that Xue Li's behavior was extremely ridiculous. When he rarely got angry, it happened that he fell in love with such a hateful person like Xue Li, which caused all his years of demeanor and demeanor to be burned away by anger.

"Why are you crying? Did I bully you?" His expression was still cold, but his tone became much softer unconsciously.

Xue Li cried so hard that she gasped. She knelt down to wipe away her tears, burying her face in her arms. Her shoulders were shaking, as if she had really suffered a huge grievance.

Wei Jie was originally angry, but when he saw her like this, he became inexplicably at a loss. In the end, he could only lean down, sighed softly, and said, "Ms. Li, nothing will happen. Don't cry..."

Xue Li completely I couldn't listen to what he said, and my sleeves were wet with tears.

She had never thought about being a mother, nor had she ever thought about killing her own bloodline with her own hands. Today, everything was not what she wanted, but she was just being pushed forward and couldn't help it. Is she willing to suffer the consequences? She couldn't help but be afraid when she thought that drinking the medicine would make her miserable and put her life in danger.

Xue Li couldn't help crying, but he was angry, so he blamed Wei Jie inarticulately: "You bullied me...I was killed by you..."

Wei Jie often saw Xue Li shed tears, showing false feelings. There were pretentious coaxings and cries for mercy, but this was the first time I saw her crying so sadly and aggrieved.

He was indeed angry, angry that Xue Li had deceived him, and even more angry that she had risked her life for a moment of confusion. Before Xue Li came, he looked through the medical books. His anger almost burned him out, and even his breathing became heavy. He thought of many ways to make her remember, and he thought that no matter how she surrendered this time, she would not be able to give in easily. Let her go.

However, seeing her crying so sadly now, and her anger seemed to be extinguished by her tears, he couldn't even say a harsh word, so he could only sigh, hold her face and wipe her tears.

Xue Li's eyes were red, and he turned his face away from Wei Jie's hand. His sobbing gradually stopped, but his tears were still flowing silently.

She suddenly regretted that Wei Jie was always calm and calm on the surface, but secretly he destroyed all her paths, leaving her with no choice but to be closely connected with him. However, men in the world were the most untrustworthy, and Wei Jie was a lunatic. How could she know what he was planning in his heart? No matter how much she liked him, she could never trust him with her life and fortune.

Wei Jie hesitated for a moment and said helplessly: "You are not in good health. You have been drinking medicine for a while. It is normal for the Guishui to be wrong. You may not be pregnant..."

Before he finished speaking, Xue Li raised his tearful eyes and glared at him, Wei Jie Jie continued: "I have taken Bizi's decoction, and I shouldn't be like this..."

Xue Li used to have difficulty in defecating on time in Guishui in Yuheng, and was often accompanied by abdominal pain. Later, he also found a doctor to treat her. The whole thing is finally getting better. Later, many things happened, and Tang Dahan avoided her. He was afraid of hurting her body again, so he never used it on her. However, few people take the man's anti-pregnancy decoction, and he doesn't know how effective it is. If Xue Li is really pregnant, it is not impossible.

Xue Li was stunned and said, "Why didn't I know what happened?"

Thinking of this, she frowned again and asked, "Is it possible that you think that Zhao Ying and I..."

Wei Jie laughed angrily at her , lowered his head to kiss her, and pried her lips and tongue apart. After some lingering teasing, Xue Li breathed unsteadily and finally stopped talking nonsense.

"If it really happens..." Wei Jie's lips moved away from hers for a short distance, and after finishing half a sentence, he lost his voice, paused, and then said: "I want you to give up Zhao Ying, and I will send you away. ."

Giving up on Zhao Ying means giving up on the glory and wealth in front of you. Judging from the current situation, it is only a matter of time before Zhao Tong breaks into Luoyang. Now that she is leaving Zhao Ying behind, all her previous calculations and attempts to please her will be in vain, and all the power she has at her fingertips will be in vain. All she wants is to stay with Wei Jie, a man who has lost power. There is no way of knowing what the future holds. All of this Not worth it.

Xue Li was silent for a moment and asked him: "Even if I don't marry him, how can I stay with you? Zhao Tong is not a kind person and will never let you and me off easily."

Wei Jie saw through what she was thinking at a glance , his eyes gradually darkened, and he said slowly: "You don't want to give up Zhao Ying for me, and you want to get entangled with me... Xue Li, you really want me to commit adultery with a married woman and do everything in the world. Isn't it the most shameful behavior of a scholar?"

Xue Li was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "I never forced you. If you didn't do this kind of thing willingly, could it be that I put a knife on your neck? I can't force you to commit adultery with me. If you don't want to, let's break up and never see each other again." After

she finished speaking, Wei Jie's face became extremely terrifying, as if he wanted to strangle her to death immediately. Similar.

"Ms. Li, you were just talking nonsense. Now apologize to me. I will pretend that I have never heard these words." Wei Jie's tone was gentle and cold, and his dark eyes stared straight at Xue Oriole's face looked as cold as frost.

Xue Li met Wei Jie's eyes and knew that what he just said was a bit too much, so he softened his tone and said, "What do you want..." "

I will kill Zhao Ying." Wei Jie answered calmly, no. Not the slightest hesitation. "If you want to marry him, just go ahead and give it a try. Zhao Ying likes you so much that Zhao Shiduan might let you be buried with him. But you don't have to worry, I will dig up your bones and never let you die with others. Acupoint."

Xue Li was so angry that he was speechless for a moment after hearing what he said seriously.

"Zhao Shiduan has long been suspicious of you and me. Now he thinks you are mine. Keeping you with Zhao Ying is just a temporary measure. As for that prophecy, Zhao Shiduan can think of everything you can think of."

Xue Li just said After being stunned for a moment, he quickly understood what Wei Jie meant. For Zhao Tong, love is just the icing on the cake. Whether it exists or not is not enough to shake anything. Zhao Ying is Zhao Tong's only son. Now that his identity is suspected, it is even more impossible for Zhao Ying to marry her easily. He just wanted to keep her to contain Wei Jie and use her to test Wei Jie's loyalty when necessary.

After calming down, Xue Li became even more frustrated.

Wei Jie was determined to cut off all her marriages. He would rather put himself in danger to force her to be entangled with him.

Xue Li was obediently pulled into Wei Jie's arms, and said quietly: "Can't you let me go?"

He said coldly: "Kill me now, and I can let you go."

Soon Xue Li heard this Zhao Tong proposed marriage to Wei Jie in public, but was rejected by Wei Jie. Then Zhao Tong ordered him to lead his army to break the city and fight against Xia Huan of Hongnong County.

This battle is difficult, firstly, it is a test for Wei Jie, and secondly, it is the price for his disobedience to the lord.

Before leaving, the army held a banquet as usual. Xue Li said that Zhao Yun had been ill for several days and did not go. At night, he waited for Wei Jie.

She didn't know what Wei Jie was thinking. He even forgot to hide from others, but came to see her in full view of everyone. It seemed that several of the guards around her had also been secretly replaced.

After Wei Jie saw her, he ordered someone to bring some medicine to her.

Xue Li looked very sad and looked at him hesitantly, holding his sleeves tightly with his fingers, not knowing how to speak.

Wei Jie thought that she was unwilling to drink the medicine again, so he said: "It's a tonic. You must drink it. I will order someone to watch you take the medicine.

" "You... take it back, I don't need it anymore."

He narrowed his eyes dangerously, walked quickly to hold her hand, and said in a deep voice: "I told you, don't do anything nonsense."

Xue Li turned away impatiently. "No... I'm here in Guishui. Today... this morning, I'm not pregnant."

Wei Jie's expression froze for a moment. After a while, he sighed helplessly. After a moment of silence, he lowered his head and leaned against her He smiled muffledly on his shoulders, his chest shaking slightly from his laughter.

Xue Li felt that his face was dull and he simply let him laugh.

The battle against Xia Huan is imminent. This battle is dangerous. Who knows whether Wei Jie can return safely.

She hugged Wei Jie's waist and asked in a low

voice: "Will you die in battle?" He chuckled and said: "Curse me?"

"If the curse worked on you, you would have died a thousand times." She glanced at He glanced at Wei Jie and whispered: "Take care..."

"Okay."

At the end of autumn, Wei Jie led eight thousand troops and attacked Xia Huan's thirty thousand troops. After a fierce battle for half a month, Hongnong City was defeated and he escorted the Junshan King's soldiers. When the horse was heading north, Wei Li, the second eldest son of the Wei family, acted impartially and led troops to intercept and kill Wei Jie and others. After seven days of fighting, the entire rebel army under Wei Jie was wiped out.

When the news reached Xue Li, she was sitting in the carriage. Hearing that Wei Jie and others were forced to the valley, no one thought that Wei Li would be able to hold back his troops when the city was broken. It was not until Wei Jie killed Xia Huan that he took action.

Xue Li thought she had heard wrong, and felt that the matter had nothing to do with Wei Jie, so she lowered her head and asked the guard again: "Where is Wei Lanzhang?"

"Ms. Xue, the whole army was wiped out." The other party thought that she I didn't hear it clearly, so I emphasized the words "annihilate the entire army".

Xue Li was still stunned and had no reaction, so he added: "The whole army was wiped out. Naturally, everyone died, and Wei Langjun was no exception."

She nodded in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking, and after a long time, she suddenly Jumped off the carriage.

"Where is the foster father? Where is the foster father?"

Someone pointed her in the direction, and Xue Li ran over without stopping. Zhao Tong was discussing something with someone. He caught a glimpse of a bright color approaching from the corner of his eye, and raised his hand to signal. Several people were silent.

Seeing Xue Li stumbling and running to the front with unsteady steps, he stretched out his hand to steady Xue Li and watched her calm down with a cold expression.

"Father, I want to go..."

Before she could finish her words, Zhao Tong understood what she meant.

Xue Li held onto his arm tightly and lowered her neck as if begging.

He frowned slightly, but had no intention of refusing.

"That place with mountains of corpses is not the place you should go."

Xue Li's arms were shaking. She raised her face, her face as pale as paper, and tears rolled down her chin.

His heart sank slightly, and he raised his hand to wipe the moisture off her face with his rough fingertips. He compromised and said, "That's all, just this once."

"Thank you, stepfather."

The journey to the burial ground in the valley was not that close. , Xue Li couldn't remember how far she had traveled. She was in a trance along the way and always felt like she was dreaming. It wasn't until the night wind blew on her face, which seemed to have a fishy smell, that she suddenly realized that she was standing in front of a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. .

A cold moon hung high above the valley, with a clear light like frost and snow falling down, and the stream glowed with a strange dark color in the night.

Someone was holding a torch to count the fallen soldiers. Xue Li's arrival was very unexpected. However, in such a depressing and strange atmosphere, everyone remained silent and had no intention of talking.

She only took a few steps, and the hem of her skirt and shoes were dyed red. She stepped on someone's cold stump, and she almost tripped, but was stabilized by the guards.

It was very cold in the valley, so cold that one could shiver, and the smell of blood was so strong that one could feel dizzy.

She had never seen so many dead people, it was like a nightmare. She didn't dare to look at the broken limbs and pieces of meat on the ground, and she was afraid that if she didn't look, she would miss Wei Jie's body if he was split in half. , she must not recognize it.

In a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, Xue Li walked very slowly, her legs almost weakening. Finally she saw a piece of green clothes. She opened it tremblingly and saw a green and unfamiliar face. She was there again. I said a few words in my heart, no offense intended, and then continued to get up and look for the next one.

So what if I find it? Everyone is dead, isn't she just free?

Xue Li didn't know what he was doing. He seemed to be in a daze and was determined to find Wei Jie.

It was dark where the moonlight could not shine. Xue Li said nothing and staggered as he walked. His skirt and palms were covered with blood. He tripped over something unknown. He twisted his feet and knelt down among the rocks. There were several corpses with horrible looks. After she caught a glimpse of them from the corner of her eye, she sat there blankly and didn't stand up for a while. The waiter was about to help her, but there was a figure beside him who took a step ahead of him and violently lifted the corpses on the ground. He was pulled into his arms and hugged.

"I can't find you anywhere. What bastard tricked you into coming here?" He was helpless and distressed. He sighed and hugged her tighter.

Hearing the familiar voice, Xue Li came to his senses, but still didn't answer as if he was stupid. It wasn't until Wei Jie led her to the stream and carefully cleaned the blood between her fingers that she choked and said, "I thought you were dead." "

I'm fine."

"I'm still scared..." Xue Li Her hands were still shaking, and she was afraid that a familiar face would turn up among the dead bodies next time. "I like you, I want to marry you, don't die..."

Wei Jie's movements paused, he raised his eyes, his long eyelashes trembled, and his eyes seemed to reflect the ripples of the stream.

He slowly wiped Xue Li's hands and whispered: "I can't see clearly, please take me higher."

Xue Li didn't know his intention, but still led him higher until he stood on the cliff. Standing next to her, her clothes rustled in the night wind, and she asked doubtfully: "What are we going to do?"

"Get married."

Chapter 94

The clouds and mists dissipated, the cold moon hung high, and the sound of the night wind blowing through the valley seemed to be mourning the soldiers who were buried here.

Xue Li stood on the cliff, and the moonlight covered her clothes and hair, like a layer of white frost and snow.

Wei Jie was finally able to see her appearance clearly through the moonlight.

"What did you say?" Xue Li thought the wind was too loud and she misheard Wei Jie's words.

Then he repeated: "Mother Li, we are getting married today."

Xue Li thought that Wei Jie was confused, and said funnyly: "You and I have never had a matchmaker agreement, how can we get married?"

"Using heaven and earth as matchmakers, we worship the mountains and rivers. Mingyue, you and I will become husband and wife." Wei Jie's clothes were lifted high in the night wind, but his figure remained upright, like a solemn green pine on the cliff. His tone was serious, but not threatening.

Xue Li seemed to see hope in his eyes.

What will happen to Qi State in the future has not yet been determined. Where she and Wei Jie will go is equally unpredictable. She cannot even know whether they will live or die tomorrow.

At least at this moment, she already understood in her heart that even though she wished Wei Jie would die in the past, now she truly loves him and only hopes that he can live well. At first, she wanted to see Wei Jie fall into the mortal world and be stained with filth, and let her stand aloof and spurn him as much as she wanted. But when this day came, she was not happy. She still liked the way Wei Jie's clothes were clean and he was sitting on the balcony and being admired by others.

Staying away from Wei Jie, she could be on her own, which was far better than following him and having an unpredictable future.

It’s just that there are so many roads in the world, you may not have to choose the easiest one. Even if you make the wrong move, it's better than living with regrets for the rest of your life.

"If the war subsides in the future, if you want to repay me with a marriage, don't even think about it hastily."

Wei Jie said to Mu with a smile on his face: "I won't make you wait too long."

The two of them bent down and knelt down to the river and the mountain. Their clothes were covered with wet blood, and the night wind was whistling by their ears. Everything was so careless, but their expressions were extremely solemn. Xue Li had never even been so serious.

In troubled times, with misfortunes and blessings coming and going, at least at this moment, Wei Jie is the only one who can hold her tightly.

After she straightened up, she still felt a little unreal, always feeling like she was in a dream, and then when she met Wei Jie's eyes, she felt a little more at a loss for some reason.

Wei Jie seemed to have guessed what she was thinking. He chuckled, lowered his head to kiss her, and said warmly: "We will be husband and wife from now on... You only have me."

She understood that Wei Jie was reminding her not to After teasing the man next to him, he had no choice but to say: "Then you have to live longer and stand higher. After all, your wife has many admirers, and she really can't let go of her glory and wealth. If you dissatisfy me in the future, I just..."

Wei Jie wasn't angry after hearing this, he just frowned when she got to the key point, then he moved closer to block her unpleasant words, and the kiss became more fierce.

It took a while for Xue Li to be let go. Her lips and tongue were slightly numb, and her breathing was erratic.

Then she wanted to go back, but after walking a few steps, Wei Jie stood there and held her hand, resting his head on her shoulder, his warm breath spreading on her skin.

The moonlight was obscured by the dense branches and leaves, and she could not clearly see Wei Jie's expression, and could only feel his heavy and hot breathing.

"Why don't you go back?"

He sighed softly with lust in his hoarse voice. "Just a moment... just a moment."

Xue Li understood immediately, holding his shoulders and shaking with laughter.

Wei Jie used to be a stoic person, but he never concealed his feelings from Xue Li. However, it was still extremely shameful for him to ask Xue Li to pursue sexual intercourse like a wild dog.

He always loses control when facing Xue Li, both emotionally and physically.

Xue Li laughed so triumphantly that Wei Jie was also made embarrassed and annoyed by her.

Then she felt her hand being grasped tightly, and Wei Jie's hand was slightly forceful, deliberately guiding her.

Xue Li stopped laughing, his face gradually became hot, and he pretended to be stupid and said, "Cousin, what are you doing?"

"Mother Li..." He called her softly as if pleading.

She refused to move and whispered: "Are you begging me?"

Wei Jie's voice was so muffled that it could drip water. He said without hesitation: "Please..."

After the rustling sound, he said , Xue Li's face turned red, and he wiped his hands with a handkerchief. After going down the mountain, I rinsed carefully again by the stream. The cold stream water slipped through my fingers, but the touch and sound lingered in my mind.

On the way back, Wei Jie found out that Zhao Tong had ordered someone to send Xue Li here.

Most of the soldiers who died in the valley were Wei Li's men. He knew that he had to be more cautious when his troops were weak, so he led a group of people to go from the rear first. When Wei Li led the army to attack, he sent people to intercept and ambush, and annihilated Wei Li. Gift many subordinates. Just to make Qi Jun think that he was dead and relax their vigilance, the general planned to spread the news of his death. It was just that others didn't know the inside story. How could Tong Zhao not know?

"Zhao Tong knew that you and I were having an affair, why did he still indulge me?" Xue Li was not too stupid. After thinking for a moment, he guessed Zhao Tong's thoughts. "Ever since Chen Jue and I's plan was known to him, he had no intention of letting Zhao Ying marry me. He allowed me to come to you so that Zhao Ying could give up..." "

It's more than that." Wei Jie carried her into the carriage and continued. Said: "He guessed that you were colluding with me, worried that I would not be loyal to him, and wanted to test you."

Zhao Tong could not see Wei Jie's preferences, and it was difficult to guess what plot he had hidden in his heart. Although he wanted to reuse He, however, never dared to really delegate power, lest Wei Jie secretly plot against him. If he had a weakness, he would finally have something he could control.

As for the powerful theory of goddesses, Xue Li could not think of anything Zhao Tong could not imagine. It is best for the people to be manipulated by the theory of ghosts and gods. Who Wu Nu refers to ultimately depends on Zhao Tong's intentions.

Xue Li used tricks to build momentum for herself, protected herself and fulfilled Zhao Tong, but what happened next was not up to her.

"Then what should I do? Am I going to have to be controlled by him in the future?" bun.

"It will be fine soon."

She didn't know whether Wei Jie was talking about the bun or their situation, so she said helplessly: "Please make it clearer."

"Just remember, no matter where you are in the future, I will I will always find you."

It's early winter, and the ground is covered with a layer of glistening white frost, which creaks when you step on it.

The soldiers on guard at night were so cold that their hands and feet were so cold that their breathing became sluggish.

The fire lit at night has gradually extinguished, leaving behind a faint glow of fire on the dark charcoal. Zhao Ying waited for a long time, until the sky was getting brighter, Zhao Tong called him, and he turned around stiffly.

"Father." Zhao Ying looked blank, and there was frustration in his tone that even he had not noticed.

Zhao Tong was not surprised by Zhao Ying's reaction. He used to be very powerful and prestigious, and had always been feared by the clan. A pair of his children also stayed in Luoyang, so that Zhao Ji and his men could relax. Zhao Ying and Yun Niang didn't spend much time with him, and they didn't spend much time in the military camp. Zhao Ying was still young and was entrusted with important responsibilities by him, but he had to listen to the words of several veteran generals and counselors in everything. Even in just a few months, he was overshadowed by Wei Jie. It was inevitable that he could not help but worry, and even felt that he was inferior in every way. .

Zhao Tong sometimes felt that Zhao Ying was too soft-tempered, not courageous enough, and not cruel enough, so he was fascinated by Xue Li.

"The Xiao family of Jiangdong intends to marry their eldest daughter to you. If she can marry the Xiao family, it will be an excellent help to you. Xue Li has an impure mind and is not a good match for you. What's more, her thoughts are not with you. . You and she are just brothers and sisters. You can give her some favors in the future so that you can stay with Wei Jie and control her. You can also prevent Wei Jie from having any other intentions."

Zhao Ying was silent for a long time without saying anything, and then asked after a while. Zhao Tong: "What if I only want her?"

Zhao Tong thought that he had thought about it all night and should have thought it through, but who knew he would come up with such a sentence. His face darkened and he said coldly: "You can't do whatever you want."

Zhao Ying looked pale and said slowly: "But I am unwilling to do so. My father asked me to watch her and Wei Lanzhang's unwavering love. I It's really difficult to do. Even if it's just a concubine, I can't let her go easily."

Zhao Tong glanced at him, feeling that Zhao Ying was too cowardly, and said lightly: "You must marry Xiao's daughter. As for Xue Li, If Wei Jie is tame, that's all. If he is difficult to control, it would be a pity but not a bad idea to kill her. If you still feel unwilling to do so, you can take her life." "I understand

." Zhao Ying Lower your head. "I will listen to my father."

Zhao Tong nodded, said nothing more, and left quickly with his attendants.

As soon as he left, Xue Li came back with a circle of blood on the edge of his skirt.

Zhao Ying's eyes moved, but he didn't get up. Xue Li didn't say anything either. She walked to him and sat down. They were silent for a moment before she said calmly: "I went to look for Wei Jie's body last night."

Zhao Ying said. Ying answered dryly: "He's not dead at all."

"I thought he was dead." Xue Li's tone did not fluctuate when he replied.

Zhao Ying suddenly felt that he was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. Xue Li had no guilt or guilty conscience, which made him feel as if a heavy punch had missed, and he felt even more depressed in his heart.

He suddenly didn't want to ask anything anymore, so he simply didn't want to expose it. Both of them knew it well. Xue Lixu and Wei She must at least continue to pretend to be affectionate in front of him, and let Wei Jie see their love with his own eyes. Later, when Wei Jie was no longer useful, he would abandon her ruthlessly, making her glory and wealth become an empty dream.

Zhao Ying's eyes were red and he was holding back his anger. He only stared at the flickering sparks, as if this was the only way to suppress his anger.

Xue Li saw that he was still trying not to poke holes, so she had to turn her head to look at him, and found that Zhao Ying's eyes were red. She hesitated and whispered: "I know I was wrong, don't cry... ..."

Zhao Ying was stunned for a moment, then stood up angrily, so angry that he could not speak coherently. "You... are talking nonsense! When have I ever cried?"

Xue Li smiled, pulled him to sit back, patted his back gently and said, "If you are angry, you can scold me a few times, Don't let others laugh at you..."

She brushed off the matter lightly and whispered that she knew she was wrong, but she had no intention of repenting. He had never noticed that Xue Li was so infuriating before, but he was lightly patted twice, and most of the futile anger was patted away.

He thought about the sharp and embarrassing words in his heart to humiliate Xue Li, but when he lowered his head and caught a glimpse of her hands that were red from the cold, when the words came to his lips, they inexplicably became: "Are you cold?"

As soon as these words came out, Not only Zhao Ying, but also Xue Li was stunned.

Then, before she could say anything, Zhao Ying stood up angrily and strode away as if he was running away.

Xue Li had some confusing dreams at night. When she woke up, the surroundings were still dark. She put on a thick cloak and opened the curtain. It was gray in the early winter morning, and the cold wind was blowing withered leaves and sand. The silence was breathtaking. I heard the wind blowing through the mountains and fields, making a sound like crying.

Unknowingly, so much time has passed. She and her mother have left Wujun for nearly three years. In the past, she was so disgusted with the place that she wanted to escape. Now it has become a luxury to want to go back. I wonder if Wujun is also the same at this moment. Devastated everywhere. The Xue family was implicated by Zhao Tong and fled south, and their former glory was no longer the same.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that she has never spent New Year's Eve with Wei Jie.

Soon, as Wei Jie expected, the Qi army heard that Wei Jie was dead and the rebels were greatly weakened. When they sent troops north with the intention of capturing Luoyang, they came to encircle and suppress them.

This time Zhao Tong personally led the troops into battle, so Zhao Ying should follow him into battle to kill the enemy.

Since the day she came back from the valley, Zhao Ying rarely appeared in front of her, but the wedding clothes were still delivered to her tent as usual.

Xue Li thought that Zhao Ying would not take her to heart this time, but Zhao Yun could not see her neglect of Zhao Ying and forced her to see him off.

The soldiers were all gathered together. Zhao Ying was sitting on his horse and turned his head to listen to someone talking. It seemed that the person next to him reminded him, so he turned his head and looked in the direction of Xue Li.

Xue Li's face was calm. After a few days, the guilty conscience had disappeared without a trace. On the contrary, when Zhao Ying saw her, his face was a little complicated for a while.

When Xue Li approached, he still had no intention of dismounting.

Xue Li was forced to come here, but now that she is here, she will not be cold-faced towards Zhao Ying and take advantage of others. If she is reluctant to give up any tenderness and sweetness, wouldn't she be too stingy?

"The weather is getting colder and colder. Brother, you must take good care of yourself when you go into battle to kill the enemy. Mother Li will wait here for your brother to return safely."

Zhao Ying looked cold and hard, nodded without saying a word, and then pulled the reins to drive. The horse leaves.

The sound of horse hooves sounded, and Xue Li stood still, but his thoughts were already far away. However, after a while, Zhao Ying, who had just driven his horse not far away, suddenly pulled the reins and turned back.

Chapter 95

"Brother, do you still have something to say?"

Zhao Ying pursed his lips and did not speak. He just tightened his hands on the reins and suddenly leaned down to kiss her.

Zhao Ying put one hand weakly on the back of Xue Li's neck. It wouldn't be too difficult for her to avoid the kiss, but in full view of everyone, her face froze, but she didn't avoid it. Instead, she raised her face slightly. Catering to Zhao Ying's kiss.

After the kiss, Zhao Ying's face turned red as if it was about to burn up. He looked away, rubbed the top of Xue Li's hair randomly, and said awkwardly, "Go back." "

Brother, take care."

Zhao Ying nodded. He felt a lot better, and then he rode away again.

After he left, Xue Li gently wiped the corners of his lips with his sleeve, and then left as if nothing had happened.

Sure enough, not long after Zhao Ying left, she bumped into Wei Jie on her way back to the camp.

With so many people under Wei Jie's command, the news that Zhao Ying kissed her in broad daylight must have reached his ears.

His expression was calm and there was no sign of getting angry. "Ms. Li, come here."

Xue Li hesitated for a moment before walking up to Wei Jie. His eyes fell on her lips, and his eyes seemed to turn into knives and carve out a piece of her flesh.

He put his hand to Xue Li's chin, asking her to raise her head, and then said nothing, looking at her lips with cold eyes.

He didn't mean to question, he just looked at her inexplicably for a while, then took out a clean handkerchief and wiped her lips. He wiped her lips very carefully, but the movements of his hands became harder and harder, almost scratching her lips. Skin-like.

Xue Li's lips hurt from being rubbed, and she finally couldn't bear it and opened his hand, saying impatiently: "That's enough."

Wei Jie then stopped, threw away the handkerchief, and said nonchalantly: "Don't do this again in the future. "

Xue Li thought he was going to say something else and looked at him in confusion.

Wei Jie saw her doubts, his face was calm, and he said coolly: "What do I care about with a dying person?"

Xue Li pursed his lips when he heard this, and was silent for a while before hesitating: "Zhao Ying has to die, right?" ?"

Wei Jie turned his head and looked straight at her, his eyes looking a little scary.

She had no choice but to say: "I have no intention of doing anything else. Don't think too much about it."

"Mother Li, you should know in your heart that from the day Zhao Tong sent troops, all the kings of Junshan had no way to retreat, except to ascend the throne. There is only one way to die."

However, Wei Jie didn't like the situation that he couldn't control. He hated Zhao Tong, and he would not be willing to be controlled by the father and son. He would not let Zhao Tong become emperor as he wished.

Xue Li lowered his eyes and said, "I know you can't want everything. I only need you."

Wei Jie's expression softened a lot, he stroked her cheek and said, "It's time for me to leave. If there is a change in the army, don't panic too much, Jin Zhen will protect you."

Xue Li understood what he meant, nodded and said: "Take care of yourself."

When the two armies were fighting, Xue Li and Zhao Yun stayed behind. , according to Zhao Tong's wish, if this battle is successful, he will send them to a stable residence first, and there is no need to follow them all the way.

Xue Li had had enough of riding in the carriage, and the road going north became increasingly bumpy, almost knocking her internal organs out of place. Zhao Yun was even more miserable and turned pale from vomiting on the road. In addition, her father and brother were both alive and dead on the battlefield, which made her feel even more lonely. She also forgot about her dissatisfaction with Xue Li because of Wei Jie, and often got into her carriage to talk to her.

She is a young lady in her prime. Naturally, she has endless yearning for love. If she has endless questions, she should go to Xue Li. She even vaguely wanted to know about things between men and women.

Just mentioning these things makes Xue Li difficult to talk about. Firstly, Zhao Yun is interested in Wei Jie, and secondly, she is too embarrassed to talk about the facts between her and Wei Jie.

Wei Jieming seems to have few desires on the surface, but she is never restrained in this matter. She wants to try everything. On the contrary, she is more reserved. Occasionally she can't bear it and starts to cry, and Wei Jie will be soft-hearted and let her go. She just used this trick too much, and Wei Jie no longer accepted it, no matter how she cried, screamed or cursed, he ignored it.

Regarding Zhao Yun, Xue Li knew that Zhao Tong loved her. Thinking of the heartless Xue Ke, she couldn't help but comfort her: "If your adoptive father loves you so much, your husband will definitely be a hero in the future. If he dares to do you any harm, My adoptive father will not let him go easily."

Zhao Yun showed a trace of pride on her face and said: "Anyone who treats me badly, not to mention my father, even my brother, will not do it."

After saying that, she looked again Looking at Xue Li, he said: "It's a pity that my appearance is not as good as yours, otherwise I can make all the heroes in the world fall in love with me."

Xue Li smiled and said: "With the blessing of your father and brother, beauty is a good thing. Otherwise, beautiful appearance It has also become the crime of holding a treasure, which has brought disaster to oneself. Just like the precious peonies planted in the market without anyone taking care of them, even the lowest country scoundrels can pick them at will."

Zhao Yun seemed to understand, and asked: "You Are you talking about yourself?"

"Of course not." Xue Li opened the curtain, and the cold wind immediately rushed in, making Zhao Yun shiver. She blinked and said with a smile: "I am not a precious flower or plant. Let alone be planted in the market."

Zhao Yun continued to say many words one after another until she felt sleepy, so she simply put on a soft blanket and leaned against Xue Li and fell asleep.

Listening to the slow breathing of the people next to her, Xue Li gradually felt sleepy. But not long after she closed her eyes, the surroundings became noisy. A guard quickly opened the curtains, and the cold wind blew into the carriage, letting her Suddenly I woke up.

Zhao Yun was also awakened by the movement, and stood up at a loss and asked, "What happened?"

"There is an enemy attack at night, ladies, don't panic, please wait in the carriage."

Xue Li immediately sat up straight after hearing this . , asked: "How many people are there, can you see clearly."

"We still don't know, but my subordinates will definitely protect my wife." After the man finished speaking, he didn't have time to explain more, so he asked Xue Li to sit tight, and then the carriage sped away, Zhao Yun fiercely He leaned back, making a muffled sound on the back of his head, and grabbed Xue Li with a cry of pain.

Xue Li opened the curtain and looked outside, only to see the shadows of people in the dark night, and the tall weeds and tree shadows obscured them, making it difficult to tell whether they were friends or foes.

The carriage galloped for a certain distance and then gradually stopped. It seemed that the front was also blocked. They had to wait for the soldiers to find a way before moving forward. The soldiers and horses accompanying Xue Li were Zhao Tong's rear reinforcements, and their numbers were naturally very large. However, after being on tenterhooks for a long time, we finally managed to live peacefully for a few days. At night, everyone was relaxed. Suddenly, they were attacked. Many people's hearts were suddenly broken like a tight string. There was a commotion in the army, and the panicked and screaming runners were not there. few.

When Zhao Yun heard the noisy noises, she was so frightened that she hid in Xue Li's arms and trembled. Xue Li found that his courage was getting stronger. Perhaps after walking through a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, he no longer panicked when faced with this situation.

She patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder, thinking that as long as she didn't get out of the carriage, she wouldn't be involved in the commotion. They were surrounded by guards, and by the time the military consul calmed down the frightened soldiers, the night attack would quickly pass.

Thinking like this, she didn't react much. It wasn't until the sound of the sword fighting gradually got closer and the wailing sound became clearer that she realized something was wrong. Zhao Yun was also shaking more and more violently, almost half of her body was clinging to Xue Li.

Xue Li froze and didn't dare to move. Suddenly something hit the car wall, making a huge impact. Zhao Yun screamed in fright. Xue Li also tensed up and his palms became cold sweat.

The screams came one after another, almost reaching her ears. She couldn't help but pull Zhao Yun off anymore, and leaned out to see the scene outside the carriage. Unexpectedly, she only leaned half of her body when she was violently raped by a hand. He grabbed her collar and roughly and quickly pulled her out of the carriage.

Xue Li screamed and almost fell into a pile of rocks. Fortunately, the person who pulled her gave her a little support and allowed her to fall into his arms.

"Ms. Xue, my lord asked me to come and take you away."

When he was in panic, Xue Li heard Jin Zhen's voice, and then he slashed his knife horizontally and slashed the person who came up to him. Blood splashed all over Xue Li. When she heard what Wei Jie meant, although she was frightened, she did not hesitate and allowed Jin Zheng to grab her arm and lead her away, then threw her onto the horse.

Wei Jie seemed to have already made plans, so it didn't take much effort for Jin Zheng to take her away.

Xue Li also walked for a while before he realized that the commotion just now was not a night attack, but someone in the army rebelled. The common people had to be robbed of merit by the nobles in the military camp and were never promoted. In addition, they were hungry and cold after winter, and they couldn't bear to see the barbarians who had burned, killed and looted in the past as their comrades. They were forced to eat when the army was short of food. After eating for many days, he had accumulated grudges in his heart and was already dissatisfied with Zhao Tong.

After all, many people joined the army because they were captured and were not willing to work for the clan. They lived precariously in the military camp and were separated from their relatives. After being incited by others, they finally turned against them.

Among them, Wei Jie inevitably contributed to the situation, while Jin Zhen took advantage of this moment to take Xue Li away. There were also people in the army who deliberately obscured their whereabouts to avoid being traced. There is a branch of the Liang family stationed thirty miles away. If they rush there quickly before being caught up, they will protect Xue Li for the sake of Liang Yan.

The cold wind was like a knife cutting on his face, and Xue Li's clothes were blown high by the wind. The moon-white clothes billowed in the wind, like an epiphyllum blooming under the moonlight.

She tightened her grip on the reins, took a deep breath, and asked, "What will happen to Wei Jie if I leave? Tong Zhao will not believe him."

"My lord is still of use to Zhao Shiduan, and his life will not be in danger."

Jin Zheng After finishing speaking, Xue Li didn't ask any more questions. Wei Jie had his own way to get out of trouble, so she didn't have to bother herself.

Just thinking of Zhao Ying made her heart sink again.

There was a turmoil in the army. The soldiers had grudges against each other and hated the Yi people. All dissatisfaction was vented in this riot. During this period, many people took advantage of the chaos to run away, and some died under the swords and halberds of their colleagues. Three full days later Only then did the rebellion completely subside, and the news reached Zhao Tong's ears.

Zhao Yun was protected by a few loyal men and was safe and sound, but Xue Li disappeared.

However, the war is urgent, and it is too late to send people to look for Xue Li now. Zhao Tong suspected that Wei Jie was adding fuel to the fire. However, with Wei Jie's intelligence, he might not know the consequences of inciting rebellion in the army and letting Xue Li go. Instead of taking the opportunity to escape, Wei Jie remained in the army.

Zhao Tong didn't want to believe that someone like Wei Jie would put himself in danger for a woman, but he had to worry about Wei Jie. No matter how good the sword was, if he couldn't hold it firmly in his hand, it might not be able to stab him back one day. he.

Zhao Tong is a man who loves talents. Rather than using coercion or inducement, he prefers to make people loyal and sincere, lest no one can use him when he is weak in the future, and he will take the opportunity to take his life.

Wei Jie is a fine sword, and it is of great use now. It would be a pity to execute him now.

However, this matter was like a thorn in the throat. Once suspicion arose, he had to beware of Wei Jie becoming rebellious.

Zhao Tong summoned the two most loyal counselors around him and decided whether to retain Wei Jie or not. In any case, even if he no longer reused Wei Jie, he must not be allowed to fall into the hands of others. After all, Wei Jie had made great military exploits for him and was quite popular in the army. If word of the killing spread out at this time, he would be accused of killing Tong Zhao, which would make it difficult for the Qi army to surrender in the future.

The two counselors and Zhao Tong each had their own opinions. One believed that he should be killed, and the other believed that he should not be killed. In the end, they argued all night and came up with a compromise.

Let Wei Jie take the poison and deliver the antidote when the time comes, keeping his life and safety firmly in his hands. Even if he wants to rebel, he still has to worry about his own life. The other step is to keep him away from important military tasks, relieve him of military power, and then promote a close confidant to monitor Wei Jie at all times. We just have to wait and see if he can make any contribution in the future. If he is no longer useful, it doesn't matter if he is killed.

Zhao Tong thought it was feasible, so he nodded in agreement and ordered Wei Jie to be summoned. Zhao Ying came with him.

Zhao Ying was slashed on the shoulder, the wound was deep enough to show the bone, and almost killed him. When he woke up, he learned that Xue Li was missing, and went to find Wei Jie to settle the score regardless of the wound. When Zhao Tong ordered people to summon Wei Jie, Zhao Ying was staggering and raising his spear to kill him.

Hearing Zhao Ying's scolding outside the camp, he couldn't help but frown, and said angrily: "Send the prince back to rest, and don't allow him to act recklessly again, causing embarrassment."

Wei Jie walked into the camp as usual, and Zhao Ying was in front of him. Tong stood with his hands clasped, his hawk-like eyes falling on him, while a wine cup stood quietly on the table.

His eyes swept across the turbid wine in the cup, without showing the slightest hint of panic.

Although it's a bit tricky, it's not too bad. It's just that I have to be separated from Xue Li for a while, hoping that she won't change her mind.

After Xue Li escaped, she and Jin Zheng headed north towards Luoyang. As expected, Liang's people did not make things difficult for her. And it was only at this time that she learned what situation Wei Jie was in now. Even if he descended to the city and the soldiers and civilians in the city survived, and even if the reinforcements failed to arrive as promised, the curses still fell on him overwhelmingly.

It doesn't matter how glorious and graceful it is, it doesn't matter how high it is. It was so glorious in the past, but now it has to bear so much infamy. The nobles from a humble family who once tried their best to bring poems and articles to him are now using the most unbearable words to humiliate him. People are rushing to write messages to attack Wei Jie. It seems that compared to Zhao Tong, he is the most evil scourge.

The Wei family and Wei Jie had cut off their relationship. However, Wei Jie had been raised by Wei Heng in the Wei Mansion since he was a child. The Liang family was even more unwilling to recognize an unfaithful and unjust traitor. Both parties expelled Wei Jie and let him It became an out-and-out joke.

Xue Li didn't know if Wei Jie had heard the news, but she thought she had heard some of it. Even if Wei Jie deliberately ignored it, Zhao Tong would find a way to let these dirty words fall into his ears so that Wei Jie would know. He was already infamous and had no way out. The only way to avenge his disgrace was to work for him, Tong Zhao.

Xue Li was furious after hearing this. After several times, she was reluctant to ask what others were talking about Wei Jie. However, she was really angry and simply copied down the names of those who wrote poems and composed music to ridicule Wei Jie. Everything will happen in the future, if Wei Jie can return to the court, even if Wei Jie doesn't care, she won't let these people have an easy time.

It is said that there will be a great court meeting in October. However, it is a time of war, and the evil officials in the court are colluding, and all the officials in the court are incompetent and ignorant. The meeting was postponed again and again, and finally it was set at the beginning of December when there was no other choice.

Liang sent people to Luoyang to attend the court meeting, and Xue Li and Jin Zheng went back with them. Jin Zheng protected her almost every step of the way.

Thousands of miles of starvation along the way, filled with displaced people, Xue Li went from pity at first to almost numbness in the end.

When she returned to Luoyang, she learned that A Niang had followed Xue Ke south to avoid trouble. Not only her mother-in-law, but also many dignitaries in Luoyang, seeing that the imperial court was gone and not wanting to work for Zhao Tong, had secretly left the people and the monarch behind and left Luoyang.

Aniang is not in Luoyang, and it is difficult for her to go back to Wei Mansion, which leaves her with nowhere to go.

Xue Li was thinking deeply, but Jin Zheng didn't notice it. She thought for a while and said, "I want to find out where my mother-in-law is, so that I can go south to reunite with her."

Jin Zheng turned his head to look at her and said, "My lord has already taken my place. You have arranged where to go."

"Where to go?"

"Imperial Palace."

The door of Tai Chi Hall is closed tightly, blocking out the cold wind outside the hall. The inner room is warm, and the almost sweet incense is flowing from the furnace. It spreads and dyes the silks, satins and utensils in the palace with this intoxicating aroma.

Xue Li knelt down respectfully, and in just a moment, his body was soaked in the sweet fragrance. Such a strong fragrance, even women rarely use it, but it is burned in the palace of the king of this country. It is really a bit nondescript, but speaking of nondescript, compared to Zhao Ji himself, this fragrance is still insignificant.

The bright red robe that trailed the floor was embroidered with large gold-rimmed peonies, and the golden steps made a clanking sound as she walked. Xue Li raised his eyes for a moment and saw the pearls hanging on the corners of his boots.

With such extravagant and gaudy clothes, coupled with Zhao Ji's pale and gloomy face, it was as if he was a silk man in human form.

"I remember you." Zhao Ji slowly squatted down in front of Xue Li, clamped Xue Li's chin with one hand, and said, "Wei Lanzhang loves you very much."

Xue Li didn't know what Wei Jie meant. He ordered Jin Zheng to send her to Zhao Ji.

Everyone knows that Zhao Ji is incompetent and has an extremely weird temperament. In the past, he was not too presumptuous under the supervision of several ministers. Now everyone is in danger, even those with a little prestige, such as Wei Heng, have gone to suppress the rebels. There was no one in the court, so Zhao Ji went crazy and executed many of his ministers. Now he was walking around in women's clothes in the Taiji Palace, and no one dared to say that he had lost the dignity of the emperor.

Zhao Ji looked Xue Li up and down and said: "She is quite pretty. From now on, she will stay in Taiji Hall to serve me in dressing up.

" Good rejection can only be accepted.

Zhao Ji straightened up and asked again: "Why are you not afraid of Lan Zhang, but me alone? Isn't he more terrifying than me?"

Xue Li was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly bowed and said: "Your Majesty is the king of a country. Be in awe."

He sneered; "Your words are as annoying as him."

Xue Li looked stiff for a moment, feeling impatient and not knowing how to deal with him.

Then I heard Zhao Ji say slightly mockingly: "If you want to survive, don't let Xia Houjing know who you are. She has admired Wei Lanzhang for a long time and has never been able to get what she wants. If you fall into her hands, your life will be worse than death." ."

After saying that, Zhao Ji seemed to have thought of something, and laughed strangely, then turned around and told her: "Among the faces she raised, there are a few people with eyebrows and eyes similar to Wei Lanzhang. If you really miss him , I will call that face to accompany you for a few days, so as to put aside the hard thinking for a while and not let Lan Zhang know about it, how about? I heard that they have countless ways to serve women, how can Wei Lanzhang, a pedantic man, make you happy? It's all up to him. Time can't control you. If you don't give it a try now, it will be difficult to find such a good thing in the future."

Xue Li was speechless and choked, and brought the queen's face to accompany her. Such words came from a country. It came out of your mouth. Don't say she didn't have this intention, even if she did, if Wei Jie found out about it, she might not be the only one to die.

Zhao Ji seemed to have thought of this, and when he saw her expression of embarrassment, he sighed and said regretfully: "That's all, if he knows about it, I'm afraid it will implicate me... that's all."
