The prince is sick: it is too enchanting to marry the princess

Chapter 707 He Loves You

"City Lord, why don't you go to rest so late?"

The housekeeper looked at Qiu Ningshui with some distress. She grew up watching her grow up. How could she not understand what was going on in her heart.

All the things that have been guessed for a long time have been verified one by one today. Although the murderer who assassinated the old city lord has been killed, she must feel very uncomfortable.

Qiu Ningshui sat on the swing and replied in a low voice: "Housekeeper, let me sit here alone for a while."

The housekeeper didn't say anything more, maybe it's not a bad thing to let her be alone now.

"So the old slave will leave first."

Qiu Ningshui was the only one left in the huge courtyard. After a short while, there were soft footsteps in her ears. Before the person approached, Qiu Ningshui smiled: "You and his habits are similar. Don’t go through the main entrance, do you just like climbing over the wall so much?”

Ji Qingxue was not at all embarrassed by being caught by her master, instead she looked leisurely and content, as if she was taking a walk in her own yard.

"Your hearing is good." Ji Qingxue replied casually.

Qiu Ningshui gently shook the swing, and said with a smile, "It's not that I'm hearing very well, but I can already smell the scent of medicine on your body after a long distance."

Ji Qingxue was stunned for a moment, and then laughed along with her: "In that case, you must have guessed the purpose of my coming to see you."

Qiu Ningshui put her feet on the ground and stopped the swing. She lowered her eyebrows and said, "If you're here to catch up with me, I can chat with you. If it's for him, please come back."

Ji Qingxue walked directly in front of Qiu Ningshui, staring fiercely at her, "Ningshui, I don't believe you don't understand his feelings for you, so you really gave up on her so cruelly?"

Qiu Ningshui was silent for a while, and finally she was willing to look up at her: "Qingxue, there is no way between me and him."

Ji Qingxue looked anxious: "Why?"

"It's not that I don't understand his intentions, but every time I see him, I think of my father. How can you let me be with him?"

Ji Qingxue's eyes had changed, she said calmly: "So you are blaming him."

Qiu Ningshui shook her head without hesitation: "No, I have never blamed him for a moment. I blame myself. If I can be more rational, if I can listen to my father more, if I can... "

At the end, Qiu Ningshui's eyes were already red with wet tears.

"Qing Xue, I have no way to forgive myself, so there is no possibility between me and Huai Zhu, do you understand all this?"

Ji Qingxue now understands that Qiu Ningshui not only shouldered the responsibility of Wuyou City, but also included her father's death.

She can kill Yue Jingxin and the others directly, but she can't strike at the person she hates the most, because the person she hates the most is herself.

She still can't get past that level in her heart.

Ji Qingxue sighed for a long time, and she said softly: "I don't want to force you, but I just think you are unfair to my elder brother. I hope you will give you another chance. You know that he has been silent for so long Do you care about you?"

Wen Yan Qiu Ningshui tightly tightened the hand holding the rope: "What do you mean by that?"

"I know something about the relationship between you and elder brother. At the time when the Huns came to invade, elder brother ordered someone to forcefully send you back to Wuyou City. At that time, something happened to your father. Although you were hit hard, but I had to take over the position of the city lord due to the situation. The eldest brother was afraid that you would not be able to handle it, so he secretly sent some people to follow you to protect you. Only after confirming that you had secured the position of the city lord did the eldest brother withdraw the people around you come back."

"Also, he asked you to investigate your father this time. He was afraid that you would not be able to bear it. He was always worried that he would not sleep for a moment when he came back from your house. When he learned that you were kidnapped, he was more anxious than anyone else. I've never seen him like that before."

Ji Qingxue even thought that if something happened to Qiu Ningshui, You Huaizhu might just follow her.

"It's all because of one reason, he loves you. So Ningshui, do you understand his intentions?"

At this moment, Qiu Ningshui's heart has already set off a wave of turmoil. No wonder, no wonder at the very beginning, some people bullied her because she was too young to be in charge. As a result, those who bullied him the next day either broke their arms or their legs were broken , as if possessed by an evil spirit, but anyone who bullied her would have no good end.After repeating this several times, everyone didn't dare to trouble her again.

In addition, in order to ensure the prosperity of Wuyou City, she needs to find new business partners, and then a large number of bosses from all over the world come to cooperate with them.

She thought it was her father's spirit in the sky protecting her, but she didn't expect that all these so-called coincidences were arranged by that person.

Qiu Ningshui bit her lower lip, You Huaizhu, how many things have you done without telling me?
"Brother sent you back forcibly at that time, and you thought he saw you as a burden, so you were eager to leave you behind. But Ningshui, at that time, brother was going to the battlefield, and you sneaked out from home , you are still a weak woman, the eldest brother is afraid that he will not be able to protect you when the time comes."

In fact, what Ji Qingxue said made Qiu Ningshui understand that You Huaizhu never regarded her as a burden, that she had put herself in a dead end, but if she didn't think so, she was afraid that she would go to him desperately.

So she needs a reason, a reason for herself to give up this person completely.

"Ningshui may not be able to let go of the knots in your heart yet, but I hope you can put aside those for a while, even if it is only for a moment, to face up to your heart and ask her what she really wants."

Ji Qingxue turned her head and stared at the few scattered stars in the sky, her tone seemed heavy: "We are all people on the battlefield, living under the shadow of swords and swords, we might die at some point. Born in troubled times, we shouldn't think too much about it." Many, living in the present is the most important thing. What's more, the years are rushing by for decades, so you have to live for yourself."

……

After Ji Qingxue left, Qiu Ningshui was still sitting on the swing, her shoulders shrugged, from whimpering softly at the beginning to crying bitterly later.

After holding back for so long, she still couldn't bear it any longer.

She wants to live a carefree life like before, but she no longer has the qualifications to be willful.

This worry-free city has been integrated into her blood and has become a part of her life.

In the eyes of everyone, she is a lofty city lord, but every time she dreams back at midnight, only she knows that what she wants is not at all.

"Father, what should I do?"

Qiu Ningshui cried heart-rendingly, and many servants in the mansion heard it. Someone wanted to comfort her, but the housekeeper stopped her.

The housekeeper shook his head at them: "Don't go, she hasn't cried for a long time."

Their lord is too tired.

Maybe being a human being should be so tiring.
