Qingqiu is difficult

The moonlight was shrouded in what should have been a cool night, but at this moment, it was like a life-threatening needle, piercing through his lower abdomen again and again.

Liu Zhang hugged his belly, and big beads of sweat covered his pale face. He bit his lips tightly. Even though he had experienced hundreds of battles, he was tortured by this excruciating pain and couldn't sleep all night long. .

Sometimes when he was lying in bed, his mind was full of desperate thoughts - it would be better to kill him right now. In short, there would be no hope for his hegemony and he would have no face to face Jiangdong's elders!

He had anticipated the tragedy of his subsequent life, but still sadly harbored a trace of greed for life that he could not let go of.

After the waves of pain passed, in a quiet night where no one could hear the sound of the wind, he could hold this broken body and fall asleep completely exhausted.

Liu Zhang was struggling and wandering in his heart, and all he thought about was what Lu Xinyi had asked him -

If everyone in the world would be better off without her, would he sacrifice her?

Every time he thought about it, his heart hurt even more. He had thought about his position and was always on her side emotionally, but he never thought that one day he would be forced to be opposite her.

When he felt the pain suffocating, there was a trace of joy in his heart: If he died today, he wouldn't have to see the sun tomorrow!

But at this moment, a gust of cool breeze blew by, and the moonlight shone in front of the bed. Xiao Cong blew the medicinal soup and opened the curtain and came in.

She brought a lamp and Liu Zhang turned away in disgust.

Sitting in front of his bed, Xiao Cong blew the medicinal soup and said: "On such a cold night, your abdominal pain is most likely to occur. I boiled a dose of medicinal soup. Now my son's temperature is just right. Open your mouth and I will feed him." you."

Liu Zhang frowned: "Blow out the lamp."

Xiao Cong smiled softly and said, "What should I do if I blow out the lamp and give you medicine and burn you if you say something stupid?"

He had no choice but to turn his head and look at his wrinkled eyes. Xiao Cong smiled and covered his eyes with a gauze handkerchief, then blew some medicine to his mouth.

After she finished drinking the medicine, she wiped the water stains around his mouth and then asked cautiously:

"Liu Zhang, when will you and I get married?"

Liu Zhang turned away and turned his back to her. He was really irritated and didn't understand why she came here in the middle of the night and only said these irrelevant words. He just said coldly:

"Xin Yi has just come back. Everything is ready to go. You didn't see the way she looked today, as if she had lost her soul. If you are free, go and comfort her!"

Xiao Cong was silent for a long time, stretched out his hand, and was about to say something, but heard Liu Zhang say: "Blow out the lamp!"

She had no choice but to blow out the lamp first, and everything immediately returned to darkness. In this dark night where she couldn't see her fingers, she had nowhere to go, but she could feel the breathing of the people around her, which made her feel inexplicably relieved.

She gently stroked her hand on the bed mat behind him, where his body temperature still remained.

She nodded: "The princess is also a poor person. Jing Guo died, and the pain she endured is probably more than the pain of all of us combined. But Liu Zhang, I'm afraid..."

Her hands slowly brushed across the bed mat, reaching for his robe, and slowly climbed up to his shoulders.

Liu Zhang grabbed her hand. When he grabbed it, he felt that he had a clear conscience and a little charm, but now it just felt dry and full of calluses. He sighed: "What are you afraid of?"

Xiao Cong knelt on the ground, put his elbows on the bed, and buried his head in his arms:

"Compared with the princess, I am so insignificant. I also know that in your heart, she shines like a star in the sky, like the bright moon in the sky. She can never be replaced or changed, but my feelings for you are also the same. The bright moon shines on the river, which stretches out as far as the eye can see.

She is here, the bright moon was once dim, but now it is brighter, and my big river is like a lake in the mountains at this moment, so small and ordinary, and even in danger of drying up from time to time. I'm afraid that if you have her, you will leave me behind..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zhang sat up and hugged her into his arms. In his broad chest, it was the first time he felt the fearful love of a woman at such a close distance - so cautious, yet so obsessed. .

She had already burst into tears.

He patted her back gently. He was no stranger to the bitterness of such a lover. He said softly: "Since I promised you, I will never let you down. A friend in need is a friend indeed. You were there to accompany me when I was most in danger." Staying by my side and never leaving you is enough to show your sincerity. Don't worry, I will never let you down."

He wrapped her in his arms, and in an instant, thousands of sorrowful thoughts poured into his chest.

People's positions are sometimes easily shaken.

Something as solid as a rock was loosening at this moment.

Xiao Cong clung to the embrace. In her confusion, she seemed to touch a small bottle. She pretended not to notice anything and continued to lie in his arms as if nothing had happened.

After walking for who knows how long, into the scorching sun and mud and swamps, Li Shubai searched for a glimmer of life in the desolate world.

Across the Qingqiu territory, we came to a forest. Deep in the bamboo forest, there seemed to be a palace. This palace was not big, it was only as big as a mansion, but it was extremely luxurious, with beautiful trees and strange flowers, spiritual beasts and birds, all of which were beautiful. Hidden in it.

He was so hungry that he just wanted to get a bite or two of food from this palace so that he wouldn't have to starve to death in this wilderness, so he pushed himself up, walked up the steps, and knocked on the red door.

When he woke up again, he was already in a side room, and a little girl was standing in front of his bed, looking at him with her big round eyes.

Li Shubai was startled, sat up quickly, and asked, "Who are you?"

The little girl blinked her eyes: "I am Fubao, the young master of this house. Who are you, and why did you fall in front of my house?"

Li Shubai swallowed and then took a look at the little girl. He saw that she was no taller than the table, but she looked about four or five years old. Although she was a pretty girl, she was dressed like a boy and acted like a boy. , all have the bold temperament of a boy.

He cupped his hands and said, "My dear Li Shubai, I was passing by your mansion. I really haven't eaten for a few days and I'm so hungry that I came here to beg for a bite of food."

Fu Bao looked at him and said in a sweet voice: "You are not just hungry, right? I see you have a lot of injuries on your body, as if you came from Qingqiu, but you are so ugly." Yes! Were you beaten back because you wanted to spy on Qingqiu’s beauty?”

Li Shubai felt embarrassed for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said, "Little sister, if you really don't want to help me, just treat it as a nuisance!"

As he said that, he lifted the quilt and was about to get out of bed. Fu Bao stopped him and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't feed you! I brought you in secretly. You must not go out. If you are beaten by my father, Mom will be miserable when she finds you! I'll get you something to eat!"
