Chapter 80 Just Compensation
As if it had been a century, an unusual airflow was slowly surging in the silent air, but neither of them seemed to be ready to open their mouths, and the atmosphere was still embarrassed in silence...
Cheng Shishi took the lead in reacting and broke away from Qi Che's arms without a trace, although she needed his arms very much now; although, how much she didn't want to refuse his warmth.
"Thank you."
"It's okay."
......
There was another silence. It seemed that she really couldn't find any words to talk to except "thank you". It seemed that he didn't know how to respond except for "it's okay". After all, it's really different. She and he are already different.
Qi Che looked at Cheng Shishi, who was not far from him. Her hoarse voice just now made him frown, thinking of her mother's plan, and looked at the woman in front of him with pity: This withered woman, the woman who had to compromise and was used, finally lost her, and now, I hope this can make up for her a little. .
And she, Qi Che's eyes were confused for a moment, so let her stay in her memory, heart, flesh and blood forever. He can't get her, but he can't continue to hurt her in front of him. She and she, he finally chose her - Cheng Shishi.
The edict hidden in his sleeve has been held by him for a long time, but he can't pull it out anyway. There is a marriage contract between him and her. Qi Che doesn't know how he is in the morning to ask for the edict. He only knows that when he receives this edict, he only feels so uncomfortable. He knows that it is heartache. However, he had no choice.
"That day----"
"No matter happened that day. Your Highness is noble. Don't bother because of your daughter. Please rest assured, Your Highness. Your Highness will only stay at home for the rest of her life and will not go out to get in the way of your eyes." Cheng Shishi answered first, a little excited. She was hurt once and didn't want to repeat it again.
"I didn't mean that." Why didn't he understand her current sense of inferiority? It all comes from him. The enchanting and handsome face is solemn and said in a low voice, "I just want to tell you in person. I'm sorry. I was really impulsive that day. I have also suffered a lot of grievances in the past few days," he finally took out the imperial edict and handed it to Cheng Shishi. In the future, you can rely on me."
Uncontrollably trembled slightly. Cheng Shishi's eyes seemed to be full of transparent water, with a bitter smile. "You don't have to do this. I have never imagined this position. You have never had my room in your heart. It's not my original wish to watch you deviate from your original intention."
There is a shock to be seen through in the slender peach blossom eyes. Is his mind so transparent? She knew his unwillingness and his helplessness.
"You--" Qi Che sighed, "What's wrong with you? Let's take it."
"I'll take it. What about her?"
Fee that his suddenly stiff body, she didn't want him to have regrets or regrets in the future, so at this moment, she chose to ask the bottom.
"All this has nothing to do with you." Qi Che's tone suddenly cooled down, as if he had been violated a taboo. He turned around, left his depressed back to her, and took a deep breath. "You can rest and prepare well. Someone will pick you up."
After saying that, she left without looking back, just like when she came, she was always silent and quiet, but she suddenly gave birth to an insoluble sadness.
He raised his hand and looked at the edict that had not been rolled up. Ten days, ten days, he finally responded. She waited for ten days for a result she had already known. Looking at it, the curvature of the corners of her mouth slowly became a little deep and strange. She expected that he would marry her, but what she was not sure about was this. The waiting period before the result.
He struggled for ten days, but did he know that she also imprisoned herself with him for ten days? Is it really so difficult to give up the Xi Xinmiao who should have broken off his relationship with him? Is she still his taboo? No one is allowed to touch, even she is no exception.
He spit out a turbid breath, and his smile did not diminish. His deep eyes stared at the imperial edict in his hand. There seemed to be a whirlpool in it, which seemed to absorb people. Let go of her hand, and the silky touch rubbed down in her hand. Watching it slip from her hand and hit into the soil, she smiled more happily, but still silent...
A few days later, the capital ushered in a new gossip topic - the seventh prince Qi Che will marry Miss Cheng, the daughter of the Bachelor of Hanlin in a month. As soon as the news came out, its impact was more explosive than the previous gossip. Who in the State of Qi doesn't know that the seven princes Qi Che are romantic, and the linger flowers are even more untouched. How have you heard of which girl he once liked? Now I put my lifelong happiness in for the sake of other people's innocence, which is always somewhat surprising. Anyway, it's a happy event. After holding the beauty back, the name of the seven imperial concubines has finally been implemented.
Since the imperial edict came down, the palace has hurriedly began to prepare for the wedding, such as Feng Guanxia, and the list of wedding invitations is not to say. When it is placed in Cheng's house, there is an endless stream of people who are happy. The door is like a city, and he is also very angry for a while.
It's strange to say that it's also a happy thing to board Xiao Enkeben, but the owner of the husband's family, Qi Che, the seventh prince, often haunts the restaurant inn. Every time he is carried back drunk, he doesn't stop. Everyone was puzzled, and they only said that Qi Che was making the last farewell for the countdown to the single life. There was nothing but a little joke.
Night. General's Mansion.
After dinner, Xi Xinmiao and Chu Yinhao were walking in the corridor. The two time travelers were chatting one after another, and only they knew what they could understand.
"Do you think the color of a person's eyes can be changed?" Today's meal is a little too much, so Xi Xinyu doesn't mind going out for a walk with the "mort" and chat, and doesn't explain his doubts for a long time, and he doesn't know if such a brain cell like Haozi can give him some inspiration.
"Why did you suddenly ask this?" He turned his head and looked curious. He wore a special family dress for him and didn't seem to hide his temperament. The faint nobility always spread out uncontrollably.
"Just ask, just ask if you don't know."
"Who am I! There is nothing in the world that I, Chu Dazhi, don't know!" He patted his chest and said with determination, "The color of your eyes? Of course, it can be changed." By the way, I had a hiccup. It seems that I really ate a lot tonight.
Didn't notice the trembling of the woman beside him, and continued, "Put on contact lenses, ask me such a pediatric question. Have you forgotten that there were original items called glasses on the earth?" Pouting and careless.
"In addition, can it be done in this time and space?" She took a deep breath and swallowed the fire that rose to her throat. She couldn't guarantee that if he was brain-damaged again, she would really beat him into brain-damaged.
"Well--" dragged the tone, "I don't know."
......
Feeling that the atmosphere had cooled down, Chu Yinhao said weakly, "It's getting late. I'll wash and sleep. You--you can also rest in peace, ah." The direction under your feet has been shifted, and there is a possibility of slipping away at any time.
"Miss, Miss is not good!" The lion roar of the twins came from afar, and his attention was attracted. Chu Yinhao forgot to put oil on the soles of his feet for a moment.
A red and purple ding-dong-dong ran all the way. As soon as he arrived in front of Xi Xinmiao, he bent down and gasped, "Little-Miss, it's not good..."
"Take your time."
"The seventh prince is in the front hall, you--go and have a look."
"You mean the evil spirit named Qi Che?" Chu Yinhao asked before Xi Xinmiao. It was pitiful that he was extremely unbalanced in Qi Che's face. When he heard that he would come here, the boss didn't want to.
The twins nodded together and gestured with movements.
He narrowed his eyes slightly and didn't wait to talk. Xi Xin Miao walked towards the front hall.
The front hall
"Wine, where's the wine! Xiao Er, give me the wine!"
When he didn't see him hear his voice first, he saw this scene when Xi Xinmiao and Chu Yinhao came to the front hall: Qi Che was so drunk that he could hardly stand up and swayed. At a glance, he knew that he was drinking too much and his brain was not clear. His face was red, his eyes were blurred, and his front skirt was soaked in a large area.
Waving their hands, the servants retreated without saying a word.
"What's going on?" Xi Xinmiao frowned, as if she had never seen Qi Che like this. God knew how much she hated drunks.
"Miss, we don't know either. Just now, when Ding Ding and I entered the door, we saw the seventh prince who was drunk on the door. Seeing that he was very drunk, he was at the door of the general's mansion, so we brought him in. I'm also surprised. Isn't he going to be the groom? Are you too happy?" Dong Dong was angry and explained, mixed with some of her own gossip ideas. He pouted and crossed his waist, as if he was very dissatisfied with Qi Che, who used to be handsome and is now sloppy.
Approaching Qi Che and looking at him with a giggle face, Xi Xinmiao suppressed her voice, "Do you know who I am?"
"Hey hey hey, who are you? Hey hey, you are the person I want to marry!" He tilted his head and looked at it for a long time, and Qi Che swayed a few steps in a mess, smiling innocently.
Unsurprisingly, Xi Xinmiao's eyebrows tightened a little more, and he turned around and said, "Water."
"Puff!" A basin of cold water was poured on his head, and Qi Che, who was caught off guard, was immediately thrilled. The field was quiet, and no one said anything to stop him. It's just that everyone's expressions were a little rich: the twins' eyes widened and they were shocked; Haozi smiled and leaned against the pillar next to him, and his eyes were full of gloating; the shadow hidden in the dark was still frozen.
"Are you awake now?" With her hands around her chest and looked at Qi Che like a drowned rat, she asked faintly.
Under the gaze of everyone, he had just been speechless and turned around slowly like a stone sculpture, and ignored Xi Xinmiao's words. The water on his body was still dripping wetly. He didn't care at all. He just walked out step by step. On the ground were wet marks he stepped on. No one stopped him who seemed to be sad in an instant. A man.
"Will you come?" He stopped at the door, his voice was hoarse, and maybe there was a hope that he could not even notice himself?
"No."
He stayed for a while and finally left. No one saw the smile on his face when he turned his back to everyone. No one saw the sadness in his slender star eyes that seemed to drown people. He left with a smile.
He knew that he was not drunk, and his answer just now was correct: she was the person he wanted to marry the most, and she had always been her. However, just "threation" is definitely not enough, so he married her and married her, because compensation is only compensation...
