the first lady

Chapter 140

At such a difficult time, she really knew what it means to be helpless when the sky should not be called the earth is not working.

At night, Qiao Ling'er started a fire, and after being exhausted for a long time, she couldn't stand it even with her iron body.

Qiao Ling'er looked at Wuyou and frowned. If they continued to stay in this isolated valley, the two of them would never survive for a long time, and his injuries would never be healed.If the people who chased and killed them continued to find them along the turbulence, they would not have a chance to live.

What should I do?
Qiao Linger was a little flustered, could they die here?

"Ahem..." A weak voice sounded in this slightly silent night.

"Worriless?" Qiao Ling'er immediately moved to his side and called out tentatively.

"Water..." Worry-free opened his eyes.

"Water? Alright, wait a minute..." Qiao Ling'er didn't go far away, beside them was the water flowing down the turbulent flow, but the water was already extremely calm here.

The big leaves contained a lot of water, and when she walked over, he also got up.Qiao Linger hurriedly stopped her: "You have a broken rib and you still have injuries on your body, don't move."

Hearing that, Wuyou frowned tightly, even though the mask blocked his face.

Qiao Ling'er carefully lifted him up with her best strength, leaned on her body, and fed him water.

Moisturized by water, the chapped lips gradually recovered a little, but they still looked pale due to excessive blood loss.

Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed her hand, causing her to drop the leaf to the ground.

"How is your injury? Is there anything wrong?"

Hearing this, Qiao Ling'er's eyes became hot, and the sour smell on the tip of her nose was even more obvious. She growled, "What's the matter with me? It's you who has something to do!"

Seeing Qiao Linger's obviously angry appearance, Wuyou was about to reach out to touch her face, but it touched her lower left rib.

"Don't move around, your ribs are broken, do you know that?" Qiao Ling'er immediately turned pale with fright at his reckless action, if he doesn't fix it now, it will make the injury worse, and he won't be able to recover for the rest of his life .

Wuyou really didn't move anymore, just looking at her, feeling pain in his heart, he couldn't help but smiled wryly when he reached out to touch his face, "Why... didn't you take off my mask?"

The half mask was still on his face, covering only the top of his face.

After Qiao Ling'er took a look, she turned her face away, "I thought about taking it off to see your appearance clearly, but..." She raised her eyes to look at him again, "What I want is your confession to me, Your secret is not for me to explore, but for you to tell me."

"Ling'er..." The originally dull voice turned into another kind at this moment, familiar, very familiar...

In an instant, before Qiao Ling'er had time to react, her somewhat cold lips pressed against hers tightly.The naked face was right in front of her eyes, and the mask had already been thrown aside.

Tears rolled down her cheeks, and she closed her eyes tightly.

The big palms held her face, and the tip of nose touched lightly, "I'm sorry, Linger..." The soft and apologetic voice made people's hearts tremble even more.

Qiao Ling'er tightly grasped his arm, lowered her eyelashes, and cried from silent to vocal, "Yi...you are a bastard, you are a big bastard..."

Putting on the mask is Wuyou, taking off the mask is Zongzheng Yi, and now he is Zongzheng Yi.

Zongzheng Yi folded his arms, unable to take into account his injuries, and hugged the weeping man tightly into his arms.

"I'm a big bastard." He whispered in her ear, as if trying to force all her tears out at this moment.

"Bastard, bastard... woo..." Qiao Ling'er has never had a moment like this, all the entanglements and complications seemed to have been blown away, leaving only heartache.

The arms that tightly held her when she fell were so firm, as if no matter how much pressure there was, he would not let him let go of her. It was reassuring, but also frightening, afraid of what he would suffer, Even more afraid that their road is only so far away.

Zongzheng Yi hugged her, feeling better in his heart. Her tears were his biggest injury, countless times worse than his physical injury.

"Ling'er, what I'm most afraid of... is making you cry." Zong Zhengyi buried his head in her neck, and said what was in his heart.

Qiao Ling'er heard that those were not sweet words or apologetic words, as if a warm current flowed into her heart, but the tip of her nose felt sore again.

"Yi, I'm also afraid... I'm afraid you will leave me." Qiao Linger's voice trembled, and her body trembled. She was never as scared as she is now. She was afraid that he would suddenly disappear from her eyes, afraid that he would never leave me. disappeared from her life.

"I will not leave you, even if the world is destroyed, I will not leave you." Zong Zhengyi increased the strength in his hands, wishing to integrate her into his own flesh and blood.

"Yi, do you know a word?" Qiao Ling'er couldn't help but speak softly when she heard his words, and gently opened the distance between the two of them.

"What?" Zongzheng Yi asked, looking at the face covered with tears.

Qiao Ling'er showed a very shallow smile, and said shallowly: "The mountains have no tombs, the rivers are exhausted, the thunders in winter, the rain and snow in summer, the heaven and the earth are united, so I dare to break with you!" (from "Shangxie")
Hearing these words, Zong Zhengyi's expression changed, and his heart, which was beating calmly, became alive because of these words, jumping, indicating its great return.

This sentence was originally one of the many she heard from her classmates when they preached the steadfastness of love in class. Only this sentence was remembered in her mind when she first read it.

She had fantasized about mountains without edges, rivers turning into flat land, thunder in winter and snow in summer, and she also thought about the sky and the earth together, where would human beings live?At that time, there was still some ridicule, the earth is round, how could the heaven and the earth fit together?But he never thought that the combination of these impossibilities became the loyalty to his lover.

She never thought that she would have such a mentality one day.

Even if the world is destroyed, she doesn't want to be separated from Zong Zhengyi!

"Ling'er..." Zong Zhengyi's voice trembled uncontrollably.

Gently holding his face in her soft hands, Qiao Linger leaned forward, "Yi, no matter you are Wuyou or Zongzhengyi, you are the one I love, the only one." , she had already noticed his true identity, but she still restrained herself from believing it.

Two people, two personalities, falling in love with these two personalities is like stepping on two boats, that's why she restrained herself, but she didn't want this fact to be exposed to her one day.

She was even thinking, if Wuyou wasn't Zong Zhengyi, how would she face Zong Zhengyi?

Even so, she didn't expect that it was precisely because she had sensed Wuyou's true identity that she didn't exclude him and felt a sense of trust from the bottom of her heart.These subconsciously transferred facts really affected her mind.

"Ling'er, do you mind?" Zong Zhengyi asked in surprise.

"Mind? What do you mind?" Qiao Linger asked with a light smile.

"My other identity... the owner of the Palace of Sanssouci, has killed countless people." Zong Zhengyi frowned as he spoke. This identity is not one that everyone can easily accept.

Seeing Zong Zhengyi's serious and tentative look, Qiao Ling'er smiled deeper, "If I mind, would you just resign this position?"

"If you don't mind that I have killed so many people in the past, I am willing." The position of the lord of Sanssouci Palace is not of much interest to him, and he would accept it for another reason.

Hearing her affirmative answer, Qiao Ling'er couldn't find anything to say for a while, but she quickly calmed down and said, "I think your other identity is quite awesome, so you don't need to resign."

Zong Zhengyi didn't know what Qiao Linger meant by resigning, but he could probably guess it.

"Ling'er, when did you know?" Zong Zhengyi hesitated for a while before asking softly.

"When did you know?" Qiao Ling'er thought for a while, and then said seriously: "You have met me three times, and you were naturally very wary of you the first time, so you didn't notice it; the second time ...When you said the last sentence, I already doubted it; by the third time, I was almost sure."

The last sentence for the second time - go, don't miss me too much!

It was because of such a sentence that made her suspicious at first, and then the third time she went out with him, in fact, the bigger reason was to check his real identity.No matter how much a person changes, his body cannot change in such an instant.

She is very sensitive to smells. Although the smells of Wuyou and Zongzhengyi are different, as a person, his own smell cannot be changed. noticed in his actions.

Until the last time when he was going to the chain bridge, he suddenly disappeared and told her to go there. Let me ask, how could a frail scholar escape so easily after being hunted down by so many people?
Although I have a bottom line in my heart, I still have unavoidable worries.Thinking of this, she suddenly thought of the time when he followed her to learn magic tricks and walked across the bridge that even ordinary people would be a little afraid of.If he was so weak, it would be impossible for him to touch these high-risk places, let alone walk through them.Moreover, her technique is very secretive, and if she can see through it at a glance, she can only be said to be a master among masters.

Zong Zhengyi couldn't help but smile when he heard the words. In fact, he didn't intend to hide from her from the beginning, but he didn't know how to explain it to her.Except when he bumped into it by accident when he was in the palace, he searched for it on purpose the next two times.But this time he wanted to save her, and he didn't want her to suddenly see a different Zong Zhengyi, so he chose to use Wuyou's identity.
