Chapter 268
Ten years at the flick of a finger
Nangong Jingnv subconsciously took half a step forward and then stopped at the same spot. Qi Yan's appearance had appeared many times in Nangong Jingnv's memory. Every time she was sick, she would accompany her and support her. Take care of her, but this time...it won't work.
Nangong Jingnu: "Sit down."
Qi Yan: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nangong Jingnv looked at Qi Yan propped up on the edge of the bed and sat back slowly, feeling very uncomfortable.
Since Qi Yan entered the palace, it seems that she has been suffering from major and minor illnesses. Maybe the feng shui of this palace is in conflict with her horoscope. The cold palace is so gloomy and it is not a place to support people... I should suppress the reluctance in my heart and do it once. Both are good decisions.
Nangong Jingnv moved a stool and sat across from Qi Yan. The two looked at each other for a while, but Nangong Jingnv spoke first: "There is something I want to tell you..." Nangong Jingnv paused to explain Said: "It's not that you are behind your back, but you were in Huainan before, so you didn't have a chance to discuss it with you."
Qi Yan: "Yes."
Nangong Jingnu: "I have reached an agreement with Jiya to release her back to Luobei and station an iron cavalry at the border that can cross the sky at any time for her to drive. If Jiya has the ability to control the situation in Luobei, I will Appoint her as a new generation of Jiedu envoy of Kitakyushu, hereditary. Jiya promises me: as long as she becomes the Jiedu envoy of Kitakyushu, at least she will pay tribute every year during her lifetime and will never rebel."
Qi Yan raised his eyebrows, coughed a few times with his fists pressed to his lips, and replied: "It's time for Luochuan to thaw, and the trees in Luobei are scarce and unable to build warships. The court has won another battle." An opportunity for a year of reprieve.”
Nangong Jingnu: "You don't trust Ji Ya?"
Qi Yan: "Not really, I just feel that compared to Anu Jin, Jiya may be more difficult to deal with."
Nangong Jingnv agreed: "Aside from other things, Ji Ya is indeed a character. She can even be said to be a hero. At least she knows how to judge the situation, and she can guess what I want, and she knows how to do what she likes." Seeking the best interests for oneself, these points alone are not something ordinary people can do.”
Qi Yan sighed lightly: "Yes."
Nangong Jingnv said to herself: "The treasury is empty right now, natural disasters and man-made disasters continue, and the power of the former princess is unknown. I... don't want anything to go wrong in Luobei, even if there is a possibility of raising a tiger. I would also be willing to gamble on Jiya once more. Even if I'm allowed another three to five years..." Nangong Jingnv's words suddenly stopped again, she wanted to say: Allow her another three to five years, even if the grassland rebels, she will be able to calm down.
But when the words came to her lips, she suddenly remembered another identity of the person in front of her - the daughter of the Khan King of the Grassland.
Qi Yan roughly guessed what Nangong Jingnv wanted to say, seeing the unnatural look in the other party's eyes, Qi Yan hooked the corners of her mouth and looked elsewhere, but felt disappointed in her heart.
Those years of openness and honesty are also gone with the exposure of the truth. Once upon a time, they never had any scruples in communicating with each other.
Qi Yan understands Nangong Jingnv's thoughts, but if the other party can also understand her own heart a little bit, why worry?
From the moment he decided to dispose of a carload of gold and insisted on returning to Beijing, he had already entrusted his life to her. Qi Yan didn't blame Nangong Jingnu, but this loss was hard to restrain.
Nangong Jingnv looked at Qi Yan, and naturally read the sadness that flashed in those amber eyes. Although there was no expression on her face, her heart felt the same pain as Qi Yan.
How could he deliberately hide this kind of thing from her?It was just that she was worried that she might feel sad when she heard that she might do something to the prairie people.
Nangong Jingnu: "Is your health better?"
Qi Yan: "It's much better, the old problem is gone, it doesn't matter."
Nangong Jingnu: "There is one more thing... I want to hear what you think."
Qi Yan: "Please speak, Your Majesty."
Nangong Jingnv: "Jiya... submitted a letter to me in her own handwriting. She wanted to use ten thousand cattle and sheep as gifts and Anujin's eldest son as a new hostage in exchange for you. She hoped that you could return to the grasslands. , help her..."
Qi Yan opened her mouth, quickly adjusted her expression, and stared at Nangong Jingnv intently.
It wasn't until these words were really spoken that Nangong Jingnv felt the pain of parting.
Love or hatred...
It all belongs to the bonds between them, binding them firmly together, even though the process is unknown, and now it seems to be accompanied by deep pain, but no one can escape.
Qi Yan couldn't escape, and Nangong Jingnv never thought of escaping.
Nangong Jingnv looked at Qi Yan and finally had the courage to face her heart. Even though she has gone through so much, even though Qi Yan has done so much...
However, he still didn't want to let her go.
yes……
Maybe he never thought of letting her go from the very beginning, didn't he?
Otherwise, based on my own understanding of this person, I should use stronger methods.
Maybe since he rewarded Qi Yan with a carload of gold to let her go, he secretly played tricks...
Even though I hated her so much at that time, deep down in my heart I still had a certain thought, hoping that Qi Yan would come back.
Nangong Jingnv's eyes flashed a map of the universe of Kyushu, thinking about the distance from Luobei to the capital, this farewell... Maybe it is really impossible to see each other again in this lifetime.
Nangong Jingnv felt her heart beat half a beat slower, and she waited for Qi Yan's reply with complicated and somewhat nervous feelings.
Qi Yan looked at Nangong Jingnv, and said calmly: "What does Your Majesty mean?"
Nangong Jingnv moved her lips, and the words "stay" almost blurted out...
But Nangong Jingnv thought of the barrier between herself and Qi Yan, as well as Qi Yan's current physical condition, and replied: "This matter... I respect your decision. If you want to leave... I will justify your name, Then send you back to Luobei with the best guard of honor, and you won't have to suffer in the cold palace anymore." If you want to stay... I will reject Jiya, and I won't mention it again.
It's just the second half, Nangong Jingnv didn't have the courage to speak out.
She felt that if she said the second half of the sentence, Qi Yan would definitely choose to stay, wouldn't she be too despicable?
It is only now that she understands that she cannot do without Qi Yan, even if she is imprisoned in the deep palace, as long as Qi Yan is still there, Nangong Jingnu will feel that she has not lost her.
But what about the other way around?What did you give Qi Yan?A nearly fatal whipping, scars all over her body, relapse, imprisoned in cold palace...
What a dark and cruel self, he would rather torture her than let her go.
Hearing Nangong Jingnv's answer, Qi Yan's eyes darkened. He could "shamelessly" stay by Nangong Jingnv's side, but if he became her burden, or his existence was no longer needed... Do you really want to stay?
Jiya is like a cup of poisoned wine, and Nangong Jingnv has no choice but to rely on her, but it is no different from drinking poison to quench her thirst.
Compared to Anujin, Jiya is a million times more dangerous!
What's more, there is also Bayin, who hates the Wei country and is brave and unparalleled, also in Luobei. Qi Yan is very worried that Bayin will be tricked by Ji Ya unknowingly.
Only I have the ability to compete wits with Ji Ya, and only I... can persuade Bayin.
Qi Yan lowered her eyes, pinched the fabric tightly with her fingers, and asked in a very soft voice: "Your Majesty...how do you want me to choose?"
Nangong Jingnv bit her lips, her eyes showed reluctance, and her heart was extremely contradictory. If Qi Yan hadn't personally killed her father, no matter what she did... I would try my best to choose to forgive her, and I would never This scene could happen today.
Nangong Jingnu: "This is your business, you decide for yourself."
After finishing speaking, Nangong Jingnv felt her heart tremble. What on earth... pushed herself so far away?
What the hell is it that makes you unrecognizable?Don't even dare to speak the truth?
Nangong Jingnv knew Qi Yan well, she knew her arrogance, she also knew that what she said just now was Qi Yan's showing of weakness, and she also knew...she personally pushed Qi Yan to a choice that she didn't want to accept .
Sure enough, Qi Yan took a deep breath, remained silent for a while, and replied: "So... please send me back, Your Majesty."
Nangong Jingnv's lips moved, and finally she only uttered the word "good".
……
In May of the second year of Chengqi.
Empress Nangong Zhenzhen restored Qi Yan's real name, Qiyan Agula, and was granted the title of Marquis of Bei'an, with three thousand households in the city.
And posthumously named Agula's father: Qiyan Suhebaru as the King of Beimeng, posthumously named Agula's mother: Fu Rong as Yipin's imperial wife, and allowed Bei'anhou to set up a tomb for the first concubine after returning to Luobei, offering sacrifices and worshiping .
Confer Nagus Giya as the new generation of Kitakyushu Jiedu envoy, and bestow hereditary replacement.
He also accepted Anujin's son as a new host in exchange for Qi Yan's request, sent Agula back to Beijing's team, and set off soon.
On the second day, Princess Zhuohua came to the Pearl Palace, along with Xiaodie disguised as a maidservant, Qi Yan had a meal with Xiaodie, Qi Yuxiao, and Shunu Nangong.
Although I don't know what caused Nangong Jingnv to undergo such a big change, but Nangong Shunv is fortunate: even if it is separation... at least she doesn't have to taste the pain of her beloved dying at her own hands.
Xiaodie heard that the imperial court had restored her parents' reputation, and she cried into tears holding Agula, but thinking that Agula could go back to her hometown, Nangong Shunv also promised that she would find a chance to visit Agula in Luobei, Xiaodie Butterfly was not too sentimental.
May [-]th is an auspicious day for easy travel. The team to send the Marquis of Bei'an back to Luobei set off. The empress ignored the opposition of the courtiers and the dignity of the monarch and ministers, and personally went out of the city fifteen miles to see him off...
The majesty and majesty of the emperor's support, not only the civil and military officials are casual, but also the speech officials are on the side.
When they arrived at the fifteen-mile Changting Pavilion, Qi Yan got out of the carriage wearing a court dress of Marquis Wen, while Nangong Jingnv sat on the dragon chariot and did not get off.
There was more than three zhang between them, Qi Yan walked dozens of steps towards Nangong Jingnv.
One is wearing a beaded crown on his head and wearing an imperial costume with a dragon and a phoenix, standing aloft.
One is wearing a purple gold crown and dressed in Wenhou's clothes, elegant and elegant.
Even if there are thousands of words, there is no chance to say more, Nangong Jingnv finally released her "killing her father and enemy", but with the righteousness of the safety of the country standing in front of her, the courtiers did not say anything.
Qi Yan lifted the hem of his clothes, knelt down three times, got up and bowed three times, arched his hands straight to his eyebrows: "Minister, beg Yan Agula to thank His Majesty for his farewell, and respectfully invite His Majesty to return to the palace. Please take care of it."
Nangong Jingnv took a deep look at Qi Yan, and tried her best to integrate the pale but coquettish person in front of her with the scholar who was wearing coarse linen clothes and carrying a box on her back and had a dispute with her in the street, but found that ...
The person in front of me is so clear, but the figure in my memory is blurred.
Nangong Jingnv's phoenix eyes slightly closed, hiding the moisture in the corners of her eyes.
Nangong Jingnu: "Go back to the palace."
The servant: "Turn the dragon's head, get up and drive back to the palace~!"
Qi Yan stood on the spot and watched the dragon chariot go away, then returned to the carriage alone: "Let's go."
There was the sound of ruts, and the carriage shook slightly. Qi Yan supported his forehead, and pressed his slender fingers on the browbones on both sides, weeping.
Ten years passed in a blink of an eye, and the big dream was like yesterday.
Ten years passed with the flick of a finger, and goodbye from now on.
Even though there are thousands of words left, I can only give you one sentence: Your Majesty cherishes it.
Ever remember?
I am dressed in a groom's robe, and kneel down in front of you, please marry me?
