MTL - The Marquis Is Innocent-Chapter 144
The south window is half-open, and there is a breeze blowing through the beautiful plantains planted outside the window, and the green banana leaves like dripping oil make a slight rustling sound.
The house smelled of bitter medicine.
Xiao Qiao took the bowl from his father and put it aside to help him lie down.
Qiao Ping shook his head slightly.
"Could Yanhou not accept Yanzhou?" he asked.
"He's gone." Xiao Qiao said softly.
"It's because of your father that dragged you down. I didn't notice your uncle's change in time before, which caused this disaster. This time, when he was angry and surrounded the city, I didn't handle it properly."
"It's not that I can't give up the name of the county prince because of my father. Yanzhou is just a dead place. Your great-grandfather was prehistoric, and Yanzhou is not owned by my Qiao family. The Qiao family's ancestral home is in Dongting, and the remains of their ancestors are buried in Dongting. Your grandfather died, when you When I was still young, my father took you and your mother back to Dongting to guard the mausoleum for several years. Xiaoxiang Dongting, the vast place of Chutian, is still in front of my eyes. I have been stuck for half my life for my father, and I have thought about it before, etc. One day, you and Ci'er will start a family and start a business, and I can let go of this matter, and I will help your mother return to her spirit and live in Dongting for the rest of her life."
Xiao Qiao looked at his father blankly.
"On that day, he brought troops and if I opened the door to welcome him, he might not have really embarrassed the soldiers and civilians in the city after he got angry. It's just that I didn't dare to take the risk. It's not a pity for me to die, the generals and the people in my family shouldn't be because of me, Qiao's family. guilty and convicted…”
"Father, don't blame yourself any more. No one can do anything better than Yao and Shun. It's useless to blame yourself. What you should do now is to try your best to make up for it."
Xiao Qiao helped Qiao Ping against the head of the bed and put a pillow behind him.
"I know that what my father can't get through is General Wei Liang and the dozens of guards who suffered. The remains are all buried, and he has taken them away. When I go back, I will do my best to give sympathy to the sergeant's family. If you can't see, it's not suitable to travel, Adi will go to Luoyang on behalf of his father to plead guilty to General Wei."
Qiao Ping raised his hand and groped, holding Xiao Qiao's hands.
The sun is shining outside the window, and the wind is gentle.
Xiao Qiao's fingertips were cold.
Qiao Ping held his daughter's hand and sighed, "Is your son-in-law taking anger at you now?"
Although his father could not see, Xiao Qiao still smiled.
Said: "Father, rest assured, he is not such a person. Although I did have some relationship with me this time, it was not because of Yanzhou."
She hesitated for a moment, and mentioned that Zhang Pu was killed by Wei Shao instead of Qiao Yue's death.
"He once promised me that he would not care about the old enemies of the Wei Qiao family in the future. I knew it was very difficult for him to let go of the past like this, but suddenly I learned that I had persuaded my father to try harder to guard against him. It's human nature to have a cold heart and want to part with me."
She held her father's hand tightly with her backhand and said, "Father, please rest assured, everything will be fine. I just don't trust my father..."
"Relax, go back as soon as possible." Qiao Ping said, "I'm fine. Besides, your elder sister is back. With her here, it's like you're with me."
…
After the last incident, Mrs. Ding was detained by the angry Qiao Yue, and she lived on cold water and gruel every day.
When Qiao Ping took power, he took Mrs. Ding out.
Seeing Qiao Yue's tragic death, Mrs. Ding shed tears even though she hated him for being ruthless and ruthless.
Yesterday, Da Qiao and Li'er were finally taken to Dongjun.
Mother and daughter have been apart for several years, but now they can meet.
Mrs. Ding slapped her daughter heavily at that time, and immediately took her into her arms with tears streaming down her face.
Bi She knelt down to her and was lifted up by Mrs. Ding's hands.
The family was finally reunited.
Xiao Qiao was at the side at the time, and while she was relieved, her eyes were hot.
The tree has a cause in the past, and a consequence in return.
At least at this moment, the gathering of Mrs. Ding and Big Joe Bishe is worth rejoicing.
As if slowly drawing back strength, the mood that had been darkened for a long time, through the clouds and fog, finally revealed a corner of the sun.
Even just a corner of the sun is enough to support her thoughts and let her go back home and face the husband she married because of a long-term relationship in this life.
…
A few days later, Xiao Qiao arrived in Luoyang.
This is the first time she has set foot on the land of Luoyang.
The eight directions are broad, and Zhou Luo is the middle.
Luoshui boils, and Mangshan is swept away.
Thousands of years ago, the place where King Wu set Ding Ding, the capital of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years.
Frequent wars and changing owners have not depressed this ancient capital. It is different from any other city and has been transformed into bone, blood, and skin due to a long history of thousands of years.
Even the wind blowing in the direction of the Luo River carried a hint of soft red fragrant earth.
Xiao Qiao approached all the way, entered from the east, and saw a lot of people along the way.
The only thing she could still find traces of the war was the gray-black collapsed ruin she saw across the Luo River when she passed the rumored Lotus Terrace far away.
She had never seen, not long ago, how tall Yuliang, Jin Yuzhenwei, stood on top of this ruin.
She also had no intention to focus on these matters, and the first thing she did in Luoyang, she brought Qiao Ci to Wei Liang.
When entering the city, Gongsun Yang sent someone to pick her up.
She learned a piece of news that seemed like gospel to her at this moment.
Just a few days ago, Wei Liang, who had been in a coma, finally woke up.
The one who rescued him was a wandering doctor who called himself Bai Shisou.
…
Qiao Ci hurried in, and when he reached Wei Liang's couch, he knelt down on his knees without saying a word.
Wei Liang was a tough man, although he was still weak, he wanted to get up immediately to help him up.
Blocked by Joe.
Qiao Ci said embarrassedly: "General Wei, please accept my worship. At that time, my father personally came to apologize, but he was inconvenient to travel, so I came instead of my father. It was all because of my Qiao family's fault that the general suffered a catastrophe of life and death. , killed 16 British scholars. Even asking for slaughter is not enough to offset the responsibility of my Qiao family!"
Nod deeply.
Wei Liang was startled and hurriedly said, "Young Master Qiao, get up quickly! How can I receive such a big gift from you! I wait for a warrior, and when I mount a horse, I will lift my head. I also know what happened in Yanzhou. It was caused by Liu Yan making troubles from China and deliberately alienating him. If I want to kill him, I will also kill him, and bring his head to pay homage to my dead brother! Get up quickly, and don't apologize again in the future. Two words!"
Xiao Qiao was grateful, and bowed to Wei Liang next to him, saying, "General Wei is righteous, please accept my worship. Even though General Wei said so, the Qiao family cannot escape the blame. Those sergeants who sacrificed innocently, when I go back, The family must be supported by the old and the young. I know that this is far from offsetting the pain of relatives, but it is the only remedy I can think of now. If there is any other use in the future, the general can sue me. "
Wei Liang was even more reluctant to accept the salute, and hurriedly gave way: "I will replace those brothers, I sincerely thank the lady! The lady quickly asks the son to get up, and don't beat me again!"
Only then did Qiao Ci get up and thank Wei Liang.
Wei Liang laughed and said: "If you don't die, you will have good luck. I am the fate of the future. Young Master Qiao thank me for what I did!"
Qiao Ci was actually panicked at first. Seeing that Wei Liang's attitude towards him was the same as before, he was arrogant and arrogant, and there was no trace of resentment at all, and his heart slowly calmed down.
Wei Liang looked at Qiao Ci and said with a smile, "Young Master Qiao is more heroic than I saw last time. General Li still remembers Young Master Qiao's heroic appearance at the Luli Conference, and he mentioned it to me a while ago. Since Young Master Qiao is here this time, remember to visit him."
Qiao Ci hurriedly made a promise. Seeing that Wei Liang had said something for a while, although he seemed to be in good spirits, the blood on his face was still not enough, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help him lie down.
Xiao Qiao said, "After General Wei's injury, I don't know where to go?"
Wei Liang said with a smile: "My lord allows me to return to visit relatives on a fake visit. If there is no accident, I will return to Liangzhou later."
"I have something to ask for, I wonder if the general can grant it?" Xiao Qiao said suddenly before leaving.
Wei Liang hurriedly said: "Miss, please tell me. As long as Wei can do what he can, there will be nothing wrong."
Xiao Qiao glanced at Qiao Ci, who was beside him, and said with a smile: "Yanzhou now has many family generals working together to protect them, and there are generals with green eyes to help. My brother is not necessary. I am afraid that he will be lazy at home and waste his youth. Time, take the liberty to ask the general, if you don’t think he is stupid, can you take him with you when you go back to Liangzhou next?
Although Yanzhou has just experienced a drastic change of life and death, and now Qiao Ping is also blind, many families will work together to protect them, and Bi She is there to help. Even if Qiao Ci is not there, it will not affect the overall situation.
In Yanzhou, although Qiao Ci also experienced several wars with his father, the situation was limited after all. If you can go to a place like Liangzhou, Bingzhou, with a truly experienced warrior like Wei Liang, you will not only be able to establish a real relationship with Wei Liang and others, but it will also be of great benefit to Qiao Ci herself.
Qiao Ci didn't expect that her sister suddenly made such an arrangement for herself. She was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly looked at Wei Liang.
Wei Liang was stunned for a moment, then he was about to nod his head, but he hesitated again.
Xiao Qiao smiled and said, "Where is Junhou, I'll go and talk to him."
Wei Liang laughed and said, "To be honest with the lady, General Li wanted to leave Mr. Qiao before, but he never had a chance to speak. Now that the lady has handed over the prince to me first, he can't even think about arguing with me again. If the son is not afraid of the bitterness of the wind and sand in Xisai, I can't ask for it!"
The son of Qiao Ci, who grew up in Yanzhou, had long heard how brave the Qiang soldiers in Liangzhou were, how sturdy the people were, and how magnificent the scene was when soldiers were deployed in the battlefield. . Seeing Wei Liang agree, he was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed down to him again.
Xiao Qiao smiled and said, "So I'll hand Adi over to the general, trouble the general, just beat him, don't have any scruples, he's rough-skinned and thick-skinned, and he can bear it."
