Diplomat's Wife

Chapter 272

Before returning to Taoyuan, Mu Qiqi went to the archives first, and found the old archives about Ximian 30 years ago. She read through dozens of pages of historical documents one by one.

Coming out of the archives, Mu Qiqi felt a little heavy, all the records were true and naked to restore the tragedy of the scene at that time, history is not like movies, but Mu Qiqi feels that this seems to be more cruel and bloody than all the movies she has seen .

……

When Jin Yu returned to Taoyuan, the lights in the villa were on, and he was busy until very late.

He was not at home, worried that the mother and son might be hungry, so he ordered Situ Chen to order a dinner at the hotel and take it home.

Entering the house, passing the porch, the dining room is on the right, Jin Yu glanced inside, the dining table was empty, the man's brow suddenly turned cold, he clearly asked Situ to deliver the dinner, and he didn't know where he sent it.

He went straight to the living room, and heard the sound of the TV from a distance. The sound was loud, and the content was a documentary from the Documentary Channel. No need to guess, Jin Simu must be there.

Sure enough, when he approached, Jin Simu collapsed on the sofa, holding a baby bottle filled with water in his arms, his stomach was full, and on the coffee table opposite, there was a table of dinner that had been touched by someone.

"Why don't you eat in the restaurant again?" Jin Yu picked up the remote control on the coffee table, lowered the sound of the TV several degrees, and asked condescendingly, looking at the little one on the sofa.

The little guy blinked Mu Qiqi's innocent eyes of the same style, and said bluntly: "Mama said you can eat here, but you can only watch TV after eating."

When Jin Yu was at home, he always wanted to eat and sit in a proper manner, but as soon as he left, the two women were like a pair of wild horses that had run loose, and there were no rules. Sometimes, Jin Yu They all felt that he might have raised two children who could not grow up.

"Just finished eating?" Jin Yu raised his eyebrows and asked him

"Yeah." The little guy nodded defenselessly.

Jin Yu walked to the TV, put his hands on the TV, tested the temperature of the TV with his palm, and got an idea, looked sideways at the little one on the sofa and asked, "Really just finished eating?"

The little guy saw a hint of danger from his father's sharp eyes. Could it be that his father found out that he was eating while watching TV?He hurriedly got up from the sofa, kicked his calf to the ground, and made a gesture to run.

"Come back!" Jin Yu scolded.

The little guy sighed, with a dejected look on his face, and he was about to be punished again.

"I said, what should I do?" Jin Yu asked him.

Jin Simu pouted his little lips, thirty squatting up?But now he is full from eating, and his belly is round, let alone squatting, it is probably a bit difficult for him to sit properly now.

After thinking for a while, the little guy had a flash of inspiration, raised his head and said to Jin Yu: "Baba, your wife didn't eat tonight!"

As soon as the words fell, the man who was standing in front of him disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Jin Simu put his little hands behind his back and smiled triumphantly. Sure enough, at critical moments, his mother will always be a shield that can save his life.

Worried that his father would look back for him, the little guy hurried back to the bedroom, locked the door, and hid for a while.

in the bedroom.

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, followed by rumbling thunder.

The balcony door was wide open, and the gauze curtain fluttered with the night wind.

Mu Qiqi stood on the terrace with her arms propped on the railing, watching the dark clouds in the sky roll closer and closer with a little thoughtfulness.

Suddenly there was an extra piece of clothing on her shoulders, a lake-blue suit with dark patterns and a familiar smell, Mu Qiqi knew that Jin Yu was back.

She turned her head slightly, and Jin Yu was standing in front of her, looking down at her with deep facial features, eyes full of tenderness.

"Why didn't you eat tonight? Wait for me?" The man asked her, his voice was low and sweet.

Mu Qiqi stood there in a daze, just staring blankly at the man in front of her. If it was the past, she should have nodded to him, right?Or should I smile at him?But for some reason, she doesn't want to say anything now, and even feels tired even blinking.

"Not in a good mood?" Jin Yu gently raised the hair on her forehead that was blown away by the night wind with her fingertips, and trimmed it behind her ears.

Mu Qiqi still looked at him so lovingly.

After a few bursts of thunder, the sky finally began to rain, falling on the terrace, and the raindrops of the stars hit the suit draped over her body, forming blossoms of rain flowers.

Jin Yu hugged her and led her back, "Eat something with me, huh?"

Mu Qiqi didn't say anything, she let him hold her and followed him.

The dishes on the coffee table were already cold, so naturally he wouldn't let her eat any more.

Mu Qiqi sat at the dining table, watching the busy figure of the man in the kitchen.

Seeing that she didn't have much appetite, Jin Yu made her favorite spaghetti bolognese. He intentionally added some tomato juice, the sour taste always made her appetizing.

Soon, a table of dinner was placed on the table. It was not rich, but very delicate.

"Did you wash your hands?" Jin Yu asked her.

Mu Qiqi shook her head, intending to get up.

Jin Yu held down her hand, not willing to let her move, opened the lid and took out a wet towel, took her little hand, held it in the palm, and wiped it carefully, the cool flannel wiped every strand of her skin The fingertips are extremely delicate.

"Okay, let's eat!" As he said, Jin Yu handed the fork to her hand, squeezed her little hand, and held it for her.

"Where's Ba Ye?" Mu Qiqi asked, and this was actually the first sentence she said to him after he came back.

"He's full, don't worry about him." Jin Yu said lightly, and suddenly remembered that the little guy was watching TV just now. He hadn't had time to punish the brat, but he also saw it. There was no sign of the stinky boy at all, and he probably hid for fear of being punished.

Mu Qiqi let out an "oh", moved the fork, rolled a circle of pasta, put it into her mouth in small bites, and chewed it full, she didn't look like she was wolfing down noodles with bolognese in the past.

Seeing that she had finally eaten, Jin Yu was relieved a lot. He sat aside and didn't rush to move his chopsticks. He handed her water and brought her vegetables from time to time.

In the restaurant, he just looked at her quietly for a long time, before finding a topic to ask, "I heard you went to the archives this afternoon."

"En." Mu Qiqi nodded.

"What are you going there for?" Jin Yu asked, his tone seemed very interested.

Holding the fork in her hand, Mu Qiqi stopped putting down her chopsticks, and looked up at him, "I went to see the files about Ximian back then."

After hearing this, Jin Yu's hand holding the vegetables paused slightly, and a drop of salad juice dripped onto the tablecloth.

"Why are you suddenly interested in Xi Mian?" Jin Yu asked her.

"I wanted to know the truth of the year, so I went." Mu Qiqi replied lightly.

"The records in the files are not complete." Jin Yu pursed his lips, again with a prophetic tone.

"What else is not written in the file? Tell me!" Mu Qiqi pressed, and finally a layer of ripples were set off on her lifeless little face.

"Back then, my grandfather planned to overthrow the ruler at that time. At this time, the Simeon border war broke out, and the plan had to be postponed. The war lasted for more than a month, during which our army quickly captured more than a dozen important buildings in Ximian territory. The city, Ximian surrendered at this time. Our army was ambushed on the way to withdraw, and suffered heavy casualties. Grandpa was furious and wanted to launch a counterattack. But at this time, Ximian had officially submitted an application for surrender. According to international law, war must Stop, but grandpa insisted on going his own way, going straight to the capital of Ximian, not to mention, almost bloodbathed nearly half of the capital, and the international public opinion was in an uproar, accusing grandpa of being a murderer. Because of this incident, grandpa accepted the interrogation of the international military tribunal and was once Doubt, so that his old man's reputation in the country is gone forever."

Jin Yu only used a few words to summarize the materials she had read all afternoon.

"Why do you all think that grandpa wants to overthrow the ruler at that time?" Mu Qiqi asked a little unwillingly. After all, she didn't personally visit that period of history, so she still didn't believe it.

"You?" Jin Yu raised his eyebrows, "Who else? Mr. Mu?"

After Mu Qiqi sent Mu Zhengqi off, she went directly to the archives. He couldn't help but suspect that she might have heard the truth from Mr. Mu.

Mu Qiqi didn't answer him, and continued to ask, "Then now, do you also doubt that uncle will do the same thing as grandpa did back then?"

When Mu Qiqi asked this, Jin Yu was really surprised.

He didn't know what she and Mu Zhengqi talked about in the afternoon. Although he and Mr. Mu had some friendship, after all, the only person in the world who could have a good relationship with this old man was Mu Yuanru, maybe because With this kind of affection, the old gentleman may have a special feeling for Mu Qiqi, and it may not be certain that he will say some heart-to-heart words.

Jin Yu fell silent, the smile on his brows was gone, and he looked more dignified.

Mu Qiqi bit her lip, seeing him like this, it should be true.

"What will you do to uncle?" Mu Qiqi asked straightforwardly.

After thinking about it, Jin Yu whispered, "If uncle is wise, maybe I won't do anything."

"What is wisdom?" Mu Qiqi asked, did he mean that as long as uncle kept his own and maintained the current balance, Jin Yu would not do anything to uncle?
"It's hard to say, it depends on the development of the situation." Jin Yu said lightly.

But in Mu Qiqi's view, this is not an answer at all, she continued: "Husband, don't make things difficult for uncle, okay?"

Jin Yu suddenly laughed, "How can I embarrass Yan Zuo?"

The man's tone was slightly joking, and the subtext might be that Yan Kecheng didn't embarrass him, and he seemed to be doing well.

Mu Qiqi frowned, looked at him very seriously, shook her head, her firm eyes seemed to say that in her heart, she believed that he had such ability.

"Baby." Jin Yu took her hand and pressed it lightly, "No matter what, uncle is the elder. At home, I will respect him from beginning to end."

at home?What about outside?Does it mean that he is going to distinguish between public and private?
"Husband, I believe in uncle. I believe that he will support you in the same way that he helped Dad to be in power. In the future, he will also support you. Even if it is for me, he will not openly oppose you. We are a family, and we don't want each other. Embarrass the other party, okay?" Mu Qiqi almost pleaded.

Jin Yu took a deep breath and looked at her earnestly, "I don't have to make it difficult for him, but the premise is that uncle is willing to surrender his military power."

Mu Qiqi was speechless, she knew that this was impossible.

However, in Jin Yu's first sentence, he said that he can easily be his uncle, obviously he has the ability to be difficult for his uncle.

"Or, as long as uncle doesn't do anything too extreme, can you give him another chance?" In fact, she also understands that Yan Kecheng's recent behavior has indeed crossed the line.

I don't know why, after talking with Mu Zhengqi in the afternoon, she always felt that Jin Yu might attack her uncle at any time, which made her in a trance and anxious all afternoon.

Jin Yu looked at Mu Qiqi, and said sincerely, "Baby, do you know? If it wasn't for the gun attack that year, there would be no later system that prohibits carrying guns into the conference hall, you Thinking about it again, if uncle had a gun in his hand this afternoon, would it be possible for the scene from that year to repeat itself?"

Mu Qiqi couldn't help feeling chills when she thought about the actions of her uncle pressing her hand on the empty gun pocket several times during the day.

She stopped talking.

Jin Yu continued, "I promise you, as long as my uncle is willing to go to Liusu Island and temporarily leave Jinling, the center of power, no one can make things difficult for him in the short term. That's it, okay?"

His tone was almost inquiring. In the past few days, in the face of the vicissitudes of life, he was able to keep things the same, but he couldn't be cruel when he saw her thinking wildly.

Mu Qiqi nodded, put down the knife and fork, "I'm full, I want to go up and take a bath."

Jin Yu nodded and let her go.

Looking at her slightly lonely back, he felt a little lost, but he couldn't promise her too much.

Jin Yu took out his mobile phone and tuned to the surveillance screen. On the screen of the corridor on the second floor, Mu Qiqi pushed the door and walked towards the bedroom.

He zoomed in on the surveillance screen, and Mu Qiqi was walking towards him, with a tear in the corner of his eye, he wanted to see it more clearly, but Mu Qiqi had already pushed the door and walked into the bedroom.

In the restaurant, Jin Yu sat for a long time, took a bottle of foreign wine, poured a glass, and sipped it on his own.

Raising his wrist to glance at the time, he picked up his cell phone and made a call.

The howling sea breeze came from the other end of the phone. A typhoon is coming recently. The night rain in Jinling today is also a sign of a typhoon.

"Hello? The typhoon is coming, I can't hear clearly, speak louder!" The voice of the man on the other side of the phone shouted. Fortunately, the other party was a satellite phone, and the signal was not bad.

Jin Yu frowned, listening to the man's deafening voice on the microphone, he moved the phone far away.

"It seems that you are already approaching the West Bay." Jin Yu's steady voice did not increase half a degree because of the other party's roar.

"We will be able to arrive at Liusu Island tomorrow! What's the attitude of Jinling? It doesn't mean they really want to start a fight?"

"I don't mind if you fire an empty cannon first."

"What do you mean? Do you want me to call the island, or where?" There was a serious voice on the other end of the phone.

"What do you think?" Jin Yu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, holding his wine glass, and asked confidently.

"Oh, I see!" The man smiled lowly.

This own battle will definitely make the first ruler who is far away in the west, besieged on all sides, even worse.

"Do it cleanly." Jin Yu whispered.
