Chapter 564 Never Regret
The spring breeze is like a wonderful hand, gently caressing the vast world, making this grassland full of vitality.
Blue sky and white clouds, flocks of cattle and sheep. The pastoral song is vigorous and the sound of the piano is exciting.
Qin Mubai's family got on the car and looked at Jinshan under the escort of a thousand Tang army in the governor's mansion in Mobei, following the footsteps of Xue Rengui in the past.
Xue Lian turned her sideways and opened the curtains. She looked reluctantly at everything behind her, and her eyes were wet after all.
"If we are free in the future, we can come back. You can do it whenever you want. Qin Mubai gently hugged her waist and whispered, "Actually, I also like the grassland. I like the vastness and unrestrainedness here, as well as the hospitality and boldness of the grassland compatriots.
"Thank you, Mu Bai..." Xue Lian threw herself into Qin Mu Bai's arms, either happy or sad, and quietly shed tears.
Outside the car, Chen Yan, dressed in chivalrous clothes, trotted the horse and patted the board with the scabbard and said, "Mu Bai, are you interested in horse racing with me?"
"Horse racing?" Qin Mubai suddenly became energetic, but immediately embarrassed again, "No, my fire cloud has been injured and can't gallop."
"Ha ha, then you dare not fight?"
"How can it be? Even with these two legs, I will beat you!"
Qin Mubai got out of the window and borrowed a good horse from the escort sergeant. He turned over and rode up and smiled at Chen Yan, "What if I lose?"
"It seems that you are not sure of winning at all, so ask what to do if you lose first." Chen Yan smiled and said, "You said it's a bet!"
Xuelian is a grassland son and daughter who grew up on horseback. How can she not get involved in such a thing? Now she is also excited to borrow a horse to join in: "I'll come too!"
The three of them stood side by side. Qin's mother Liu Shi, Shuang'er, Xingtai sisters and the sergeants all looked at them, which was very interesting.
"Then I'll make a bet." Qin Mubai looked at his two beautiful wives left and right. He whispered with a bad smile, "If anyone loses, he will serve on it tonight."
"I can't stand you!"
"Mu Bai, your shameless strength is coming again!"
The two women blushed and couldn't help laughing and scolding. Without waiting for Qin Mubai to talk, they suddenly ran away with a tacit understanding.
"Oh, cheating! - Two little ladies, stop quickly. I just want to talk to you about ideals and life. It's not bad, haha!" Qin Mubai ran wildly and chased after him all the way.
In the carriage, Liu Shi and Shuang'er giggled.
"Mother, look at the third brother, from the grassland to the whole person has changed." Shuang'er said, "Since his father's death, he has been very depressed and dull. It's finally ready now! I'm also happy to see him so happy.
"You are really a good girl for your brother." Liu stroked Shuang'er's head and said gently, "But you haven't been really happy recently. You still miss Li Ke very much, right?"
"..." Shuang'er was speechless for a moment. After being silent for a long time, she said, "Mom, I figured it out. I will get better gradually. When it came to Samojian, I asked my brother to choose a good husband to marry. In this life, there will be a destination. I won't enter the harem, where there is a dark intrigue. Even if I can be with Li Ke, it's far from being happy with my mother! I think there are many other important things that a woman needs to cherish in addition to love in her life. My mother and third brother are the most worthy of my cherish.
"Okay... I'll let your brother arrange it for you." Liu took a long breath and said, "I miss my Qin family. Over the years, I have been in turmoil. Now I have gone to the Western Regions. I hope I can live a safe and stable life from now on. In fact, I have never been looking forward to your brother's rise to the world. He can be safe and happy, and his mother is satisfied. In fact, life is really short. What should be done should be done, what should be cherished, and should be satisfied - your brother is like this now, and my mother is sincerely gratified! It's also gratifying to believe that your father is in the spirit of heaven.
More than a month later, on the top of the Flame Mountain, in front of the statue of Qin Shubao.
Princess Gaoyang stood in the wind and her clothes fluttering, squinting at the distant north.
"Fath-in-law, that guy hasn't come back yet. Can you rush him for me?" Princess Gaoyang had a gentle and expectant smile on her face, looked up at the tall statue of Qin Shubao above her head, and whispered, "I miss Mu Bai so much, I miss Xiaodi so much!"
From Gaochang, whether it is the scorching sun or the snow, Princess Gaoyang must climb to the top of the Flame Mountain and look far away, hoping to see the figure of Qin Mubai.
More than a hundred disappointments did not let Princess Gaoyang give up her expectations. Because she firmly believes that Qin Mubai will not forget her and will definitely come. Just like in the past, the two have experienced countless storms and waves. No matter where the wind and clouds surge, the love is as strong as gold and will never give up!
"He will definitely come. Grandpa, do you think so? Princess Gaoyang put a ray of incense on Qin Shubao, and then wanted to wipe the cloth and other things and scrub the statue finely.
Seeing her like this, there is no way to associate her with her usual behavior, let alone think that she is the princess of a dignified country.
"Your Excellency, Your Highness, Princess Gaoyang?" Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind him.
Princess Gaoyang was shocked and turned her head to see a tall man in a bamboo hat, standing less than ten steps away.
"Who are you? How did you get up?" Princess Gaoyang couldn't help but be a little surprised and scared. There are less than a hundred steps at the foot of the mountain, but there are hundreds of cavalry guards guarding him. What is this man's intention to sneak up?
"Your Highness, don't be surprised. The villain has no evil intentions." The man took off the hat and smiled, "Your Highness, do you recognize me?"
"You are..." Princess Gaoyang looked at him and was very familiar. Suddenly thinking about it, Han Mao suddenly jumped up with a scream, "Ghost!"
"Your Highness, don't be afraid. Zhao is a human, a living person!"
Some people came here, it turned out to be Zhao Chong!
"You, aren't you dead?"
"Zhao is not dead. But that's a long story, so there's no need to say. Zhao Chong smiled relaxedly and said, "Your Highness, don't be afraid. Zhao came here to send something to the princess."
"What, what?" Princess Gaoyang still had a little palpitations and trembled in her mouth.
"Your Highness, please have a look." After saying that, Zhao Chong took out a purple sandalwood box and handed it over.
Princess Gaoyang took over the suspicion, opened it, and suddenly narrowed her eyes.
"What a dazzling jewel!" Princess Gaoyang exclaimed, "Where did you get it?"
Princess Gaoyang was born in the royal family and has seen rare treasures since she was a child. She not only knows goods, but also has a very high vision. But the jewel in front of him really amazed him - an absolute priceless treasure!
"A gift from a friend." Zhao Chong smiled and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to ask. In a word, this bead is definitely the right way. Zhao originally wanted to give this pearl to Commander Qin in person, but Commander Qin did not come for a long time. Recently, I learned that the princess often came here to pay tribute to Mr. Qin, so she took the liberty to give beads. If you are shocked by the princess, please forgive me!"
"Are you going to give this bead to Mu Bai?" Princess Gaoyang wondered, "Why?"
Zhao Chong smiled and said, "It's just an appointment with friends in the world - Your Highness, take care of yourself. Say goodbye!"
"Hey, wait, make it clear!" Princess Gaoyang called.
"This bead is called 'Holy Bodhi', which is the jewel on the crown of King Silla!" After Zhao Chong said this, he drifted away and disappeared.
"Holy Bodhi, the pearl on the crown of Silla..." Princess Gaoyang whispered shallowly, "That is indeed a priceless treasure. Where did Zhao Chong get it from and why did he give it to Mu Bai? What a strange person!"
It was getting late, and Princess Gaoyang came down the mountain. As usual, she still doesn't look forward to Qin Mubai today. When she returned to her residence, it was time to light the lamp and wax it. The maids had already prepared the meal and waited for her to eat. Princess Gaoyang ate some hastily, took a bath, and then returned to the bedroom. She deliberately blew out the oil lamp and opened the box. Baozhu emitted dazzling brilliance in the dark room, which almost lit up the whole room.
"What a rare treasure. I haven't seen such a good bead in the palace for so many years!" Princess Gaoyang played with interest for a while and soon lost interest in it. Sitting alone in front of the bronze mirror, looking at his plain face after bathing, he said quietly, "Thief Military Academy, stinky man, it's agreed to wait here. It's been several months, but there is still no trace. You promised to draw eyebrows for me all your life - look, I'm not in the mood to look forward to it. The eyebrows are getting more and more ugly!"
"Real? Then let me draw a picture for you!" Suddenly, such a sound came from the room.
Princess Gaoyang was shocked, and the jewels in her hand also fell to the ground, and she rolled aside.
But it was picked up by one person. In the glory of the jewel, Princess Gaoyang saw the man's face clearly, not Qin Mubai, or who!
"You, you... thief military academy, stinky man! You scared me to death!" Princess Gaoyang shouted a few times in shame and surprise, and suddenly burst into tears.
Qin Mubai just wanted to tease her and surprise her, but he didn't expect to scare people to cry. Hurry up to comfort.
Princess Gaoyang plunged into Qin Mubai's arms and cried like a child. She couldn't stop. He held him tightly with his hands and couldn't wait to pinch him into his meat.
Qin Mubai couldn't help but feel a little distressed, because he remembered the situation when he went to the cold palace and saw the crazy Princess Gaoyang.
"It's agreed that I will draw eyebrows for you all my life, and I won't forget it." Qin Mubai stroked her face to wipe away her tears, and then kissed her red lips and said, "Come on, sit down obediently. I'll draw eyebrows for you."
"Okay..." Princess Gaoyang choked and stopped crying loudly, and tears still couldn't help flowing.
Qin Mubai let her lie in her arms with her face up, picked up the charcoal pen, and focused on drawing her eyebrows.
"Mu Bai, I will never forget the promise you made to me that day."
"I don't have either."
"Won't you regret it? A lifetime... It's a long, a long, and one day when I'm old, you will be tired of me.
"Unless I'm tired of myself, I will never get tired of you. Because you are not only my lover, but also my relative. Qin Mubai held her in his arms, "Linger, with you in this life is a blessing from my previous life, but it makes you pay too much for me. It took me several years to finish what a minister and a man should do. In the next few days, I will try my best to be a husband and a father, accompany you, guard you, and never abandon me until the end of my life!"
Princess Gao Yang hugged Qin Mubai tightly, sobbing and tears.
"Mu Bai, listen - from the moment I like you, I have never doubted, changed, or regretted my choice and decision! Because I know that in this life, Li Linger lives for you, lives for you, and never hesitates to die for you!"
