After waking up from the dream, the general's wife lost her love brain

Chapter 118 Northwest King

There was silence in the hall for a moment, and then there was a more intense cracking sound.

After Li Xing finished venting, he finally calmed down a little, "How about the last time I asked you to go to the Taishi Mansion privately?"

The chamberlain looked very unhappy, "Master Li did not give me a clear reply, but... I heard that Madam Li had recently set up a call with the Zhen Guo Duke's Mansion through a trustee, and today she also invited the Zhen Guo Duke's wife to attend a banquet."

She would rather marry a courtier than let her granddaughter enter the palace as a concubine.The chamberlain carefully observed Li Xing's face, thinking that such a shame and humiliation would make him furious again, but unexpectedly, Li Xing only remained silent.

There was no anger on his face, but instead it was extremely dark, which seemed even more permeable in the silence.

"I am already fourteen this year, and I will be in charge next year. However, seeing how the Duke of Zhen shows no sign of delegating power, I do not want to be a puppet emperor for the rest of my life."

The chamberlain wiped his sweat, hesitated, and finally took a step forward, knelt down on the ground, and said tremblingly: "I have a humble opinion..."

After Li Xing listened, he was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.

In the evening, Qiao Yuan mentioned to Qi Cun that the Taishi Mansion wanted to marry them. Qi Cun thought for a moment and roughly guessed what was going on.

Among the three assistant ministers left by the late emperor, Prince Gong was Li Xing's imperial uncle, so he was naturally on his side. Now he still wants to win over the Grand Master's Mansion, just to confront the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.

It's just that Li Xing has a mediocre talent and a gloomy and unlovable temperament. His only thoughts are used to fight for power and gain. Not to mention the Grand Master's Palace, even those who love girls a little don't want to send their daughters to the palace.

Qi Cun touched Qiao Yuan's hair and said, "Don't worry about them."

Qiao Yuan didn't think much about it and just sighed: "When Mrs. Li mentioned this matter today, I was shocked."

Qi Cun knew why the little beauty felt awkward.

She felt that she was still a girl, and she never thought that one day she would have to talk to others about her son's marriage.

Qiao Yuan noticed that he was smiling and couldn't help but hit him angrily: "It's all your fault. Why did you marry me so early?"

It's not too early. When Qi Cun met Qiao Yuan for the first time, she had not yet had her hair extensions. After waiting for a few months, Qiao Yuan finished her hair extensions ceremony. Ordinary girls would stay for a few more years. However, he dared to come to propose marriage with the imperial edict impatiently.

Qiao Yuan was a little worried, feeling that after meeting Qi Cun, her life would always be one step ahead of others.

Qi Cun laughed louder and louder. It was already very late. Qiao Yuan was afraid that if he continued like this, he would attract the attention of the maids outside, so he quickly crawled over and sat on his lap to cover his mouth.

She had never thought that this was completely a trap. When she came to her senses, she had been forced to sit astride the man's strong waist, with a clear abdominal barrier underneath, and she could even feel the muscle strength that was ready to go.

There was a moist feeling in the delicate palm of her hand. Qiao Yuan subconsciously wanted to withdraw her hand, but Qi Cun bit her fingertip.

He licked the five fingertips one by one before letting go. He lowered his voice and said, "Ma'am, are you afraid of being discovered by others?"

The pads of her fingers were wet and sticky, and Qiao Yuan felt as if her head was going to be numb: "What?"

Qi Cun almost spoke in a breathy voice, with a hint of taboo ambiguity in the dead of night: "Yes, we really have to be careful. It would be bad if the Duke of Zhen finds out."

Qiao Yuan opened her eyes wide and was about to run away when she was pulled back again by her waist.

"Qi Cun!" she was furious.

"Shh." Qi Cun pressed her lips, "Madam, please keep your voice down later."

He turned around and looked around. Qiao Yuan had a bad premonition in her heart. The next moment she saw him pull out a silk handkerchief from under the pillow.

"Madam, don't worry, this veil is clean."

Qiao Yuan's eyelashes trembled uneasily, Qi Cun really seemed to be having an affair with her, coaxing her while gently blocking her lips. "I feel wronged, Madam, but I don't know when the Duke will come back, so Madam, please bear with me for now."

Qiao Yuan recently got a new beauty recipe, using some rare medicinal materials and some supplements to make a soup, which is delicious and nourishing.

When it was time to drink soup in the evening, Lu Xiu came back with the soup and saw that the lights in the room had been turned off.

She stood at the door for a while and didn't hear any sound. Although she was surprised that Madam and the Duke had rested so early today, she didn't think much and went back first.

Little did he know that the lady in the room was so nervous that she almost cried. Her sobs were muffled by the soaked silk handkerchief, and only the breath that was weakened by one degree came out.

Delicate, timid, with a little soft charm.

No matter how the atmosphere in the court changed, Qiao Yuan was not affected at all.

After Qi Cun entered the house, he rarely mentioned the troubles outside, so Qiao Yuan only vaguely knew that he had political differences with the little emperor.

No one thought that Li Xing would take the risk and steal the car of the Duke of Zhen Guo's wife.

At that time, Qiao Yuan was on her way back from visiting her mother Qiao when she noticed that the carriage was not going the right way and the guards around her had been quietly replaced.

On the first day of his imprisonment, Qiao Yuan met Li Xing who looked crazy.

"Don't worry, madam, I won't touch you now. As long as the Duke of Zhen Guo hands over the tiger talisman in a wise manner, I will naturally reunite you as husband and wife."

Qiao Yuan looked at him coldly and suddenly remembered the first time she met Li Xing a few years ago.

At that time, he was just a fourth prince who ran into the rockery out of fun and got stuck. In just a few years, he grew into such a twisted young man.

Li Xing was irritated by her expression, but he still wanted to keep Qiao Yuan as a threat and did not dare to do anything to her. His lips trembled twice and he walked away.

He hated Qi Cun deeply and only ordered people not to touch Qiao Yuan. The rest were done according to the standards of prisoners.

Even under these conditions, Qiao Yuan was still very picky. She would rather eat only two steamed buns a day and feel dizzy with hunger than touch those meals that had been left overnight.

The bad news is that on the fifth day, the steamed buns were gone.

The good news is that Qi Cun was finally found.

He hadn't closed his eyes since Qiao Yuan disappeared, his eyes were filled with red bloodshot eyes, and he almost shed tears while holding the little beauty with full beard and tail.

The dungeon was dank, and Qiao Yuan's body was as cold as ice. He carried her outside, blood flowing like a river along the way.

She obediently covered her eyes with the man's broad palm and asked, "Where are we going?"

Qi Cun replied: "A place where others can no longer control us."

Five years after the show started, a piece of news shocked Daji.

The Duke of Zhen Guo worked diligently to assist the government for five years, but he was jealous of the emperor and killed the donkey. The Duke of Zhen Guo was angry and took his family with him. He led 40 troops and horses under his command and fled to the northwest. He used Pangu Pass as the boundary, divided and ruled, and changed his name to Northwest King.

Three years later, there was great chaos in Guanzhong. The emperor was ignorant, the eunuchs were in power, there were many factions, natural and man-made disasters, and the people were in dire straits.

The king of the northwest came out of the pass in response to the people's support and regained the pass in a month with thunderous power. The last emperor committed suicide at the city gate.

Folk petitions for the Northwest King to found his country and proclaim himself emperor reached its peak.
