Good luck today

pendant?

Su Shixia raised her hand to press on her chest.

Under the thin clothes, the jade pendant that bound her space lightly touched her palm.

This jade pendant was indeed something she had been wearing since she was a child, and she always thought it was a protective object given to her by her parents after she was born.

But Feng Qinian said... This is something left to her by her real biological mother.

Su Shixia narrowed her eyes, as if thinking of something, she suddenly raised her eyes to look at Feng Qinian and said, "I heard that the emperor of Dongling Kingdom was sent to Xiqi Kingdom as a hostage when he was young."

"Accompanying him to the Xiqi Kingdom back then, apart from some close relatives who served him closely, there were also a few descendants of the Dongling Kingdom's Houmen, including my adoptive father Chang Yihou and my... Father-in-law, loyal and brave."

"Of course, counting the time, they should be still young at that time, and they haven't even formally inherited the throne."

Su Shixia talked too much in one breath, and her throat started to hurt again.

She frowned slightly, and couldn't help but cleared her throat. Just as she touched her neck with her hand, Feng Qinian, who had been sitting beside her, had already stood up, walked quickly to a table not far away, poured a glass of warm water and handed it to her in front of her.

"Can you hold your throat?"

Feng Qinian looked down at her, with undisguised worry in his eyes.

"I'm in a hurry to tell you my identity. I don't want you to recognize me right away. I just want to make things clear to you."

Feng Qinian said: "Dangling country is too chaotic now, I don't want you to stay in Dongling country anymore. In addition, I will go back to Xiqi country soon, so... I hope that before I give everything to you After confessing, you can trust me more and go to Xiqi Kingdom with me."

Feng Qinian suddenly put all his thoughts on the bright side, which was really beyond Su Shixia's expectation.

She was stunned for a moment, and when she raised her hand to take the cup of tea, she couldn't help raising her eyes to look at Feng Qinian for a while, but she didn't make any direct statement on the matter of recognizing her relatives and going to Xiqi country, she just said hoarsely and politely. Said to Feng Qinian, "Thank you."

Feng Qinian was not at all happy to hear her thank you, so he snorted and sat down on the stool next to the bed again.

"Listen to what you said, you are so polite, it's clear that you don't want to recognize me as a brother."

If Feng Qinian really showed a sad and disappointed look at this moment, Su Shixia would probably be so embarrassed and speechless that he didn't know how to continue to face him.

But he put on such an attitude as if he was sulking, which actually made Su Shixia's tense vigilance relax a little.

Feng Qinian, um, that is to say, the impression Mr. Gu gave her before was that he was mysterious, a little foolish and out of tune.

His reaction like this is the most normal for Su Shixia.

"Except for the blood relationship that is still not fully confirmed, the two of us are not very familiar with each other."

Su Shixia chuckled lightly: "If I really 'you're welcome' with you, you will probably have even more headaches."

"Then you're welcome to show me."

Feng Qinian raised his eyebrows, and hummed in a depressed tone:

"I've been thinking about getting my sister back, and I'm counting on my sister every day, my brother grows and yells and acts like a baby at me. The result is good... With your temper, I'm afraid you'll wait until I step into the coffin with one foot." It's not until you act like a spoiled child to me."

"Hey, why don't you two have another one before Qin Yi recovers? This time I will give birth to a daughter, and I will raise it for you!"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Su Shixia really couldn't keep up with Feng Qinian's out-of-the-ordinary thinking, and he almost choked on him just after taking a sip of tea.

"I don't think you want to adopt, you obviously just want a little girl from the younger generation to play with you."

Su Shixia put the teacup on the low cabinet aside, glanced at Feng Qinian angrily, did not follow his train of thought to talk to him, and quickly brought the topic back to the main topic.

"I mentioned the matter of my adoptive father and my father-in-law, but I actually wanted to ask you, did they both know each other and your parents during the time they were in Xiqi State? Or should I say... have some friendship?"

"good."

Feng Qinian nodded affirmatively, and there was a very meaningful smile on the corner of his lips.

"It's not me bragging. Our aunt was the veritable number one beauty in Xiqi country when she was young! People who like her can circle around the emperor Xiqi several times. Back then, as long as they were young princes, there was no one Don't be tempted by our mother."

"I'm not sure if your adoptive father and your father-in-law had any other thoughts about our aunt when they were in Xiqi country, but I heard aunt mentioned that she and those people from Dongling country The relationship is good."

"Before going to northern Xinjiang, A Niang also secretly sent a letter to your adoptive father and your father-in-law, telling them some of your characteristics, and asking them to help find you. It was only later that the people sent by your mother Many of them were silenced by the people of Xiqi State, and my mother also lost contact with your adoptive father and the others."

At the beginning, Feng Qinian just followed Su Shixia's question and told everything he knew.

But when he came to this point, he also vaguely guessed what Su Shixia wanted to ask, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "You are suspicious... your adoptive father actually knew your true identity a long time ago?"

Su Shixia's eyes darkened slightly, and she nodded silently.

"When I was ten years old, my father was seriously ill, and my family didn't have the money to hire a doctor for my father. I really had no other choice. When I learned that Changyihou was going back to his hometown to worship my ancestors, I begged in front of Changyihou with my last hope, and knelt down. and begged him to lend me some money to save my father's life."

When Su Shixia said this, she picked the string tied around her neck with her fingertips, and hooked out the pendant on her chest.

"Chang Yihou took good care of me after seeing me. He not only helped my father find a doctor, paid for the medicine, but even visited my father himself."

"That day, he asked the guards to take me and my brother out of the house. He closed the door and stayed in the house and had a secret conversation with my father for a long time. When the conversation was over, when he came out of my father's room, he said that he had discussed with my father. Yes, he adopted me as his adopted daughter, and asked me to go to Shangjing with him."

Su Shixia twitched the corner of her lower lip in a self-deprecating way: "At that time, I thought my adoptive father really pitied me, and decided to adopt me after seeing my fate. But now, it seems that maybe it's because he saw my weakness. It looks a little like... your parents, and he saw the jade pendant on my body with his own eyes."

Some things just don't stand up to scrutiny.

At that time, I didn't pay attention to the details at all, but now I remember it clearly in retrospect.

Everything is traceable, like now, she clearly remembered that when she knelt in front of Chang Yihou, the jade pendant on her chest slid out.

After seeing the appearance of the jade pendant clearly, Chang Yihou got up abruptly in a gaffe, strode up to her and helped her up, and asked her anxiously: "Which family are you... from?!"
