Even though the Mohist army went through many twists and turns, they still defeated all the enemies in the end and returned victorious.
"Mother! Mother, let's go! "Qin Lie rushed in, grabbed Yaoji and was about to rush out. Yaoji hurriedly pulled him back and said helplessly, "What's the rush?" Qin Lie rolled his eyes and said, "Father is back, let's go welcome him!"
Originally, Qin Lie had always called her godmother and godmother, and Qin Feng godfather. But after returning to Glass City, Yaoji suddenly found that Qin Lie, who was usually calm, had become much more lively. And the way he called her and Qin Feng had become father and mother, which would cause people to misunderstand. But he still didn't change.
Yaoji pulled his hand away and sighed softly, "Today is the day of the Mohist army's victorious return. There are so many people, why should we go?" Qin Lie pouted unhappily and said, "What do you mean by joining in? What's wrong with going to welcome father's victorious return? Father will be very happy when he sees us. "
Yaoji shook her head and said, "You go, I won't go. Just say congratulations to Qin … Commander for me. "
Qin Lie's little face instantly drooped. It seemed that his mother still wasn't willing to accept his father. Qin Lie felt that his godfather was the most devoted man in the world. Who in the world could chase a girl for seven or eight years? Why didn't his mother like him? Then he thought about the things that his mother often secretly took out to look at in the Chu capital and Jiangnan. It didn't seem like she didn't like them.
Could it be … that his mother had some concerns?
"Since you're not going, I won't go either." Qin Lie sat dejectedly at the table across from Yaoji, looking at her with eager eyes. Yaoji helplessly raised her hand and patted his head, saying, "What are you doing, you little brat? It's not like you don't know my identity. If I run out, won't I just … embarrass Commander Qin? And you, if you dare to shout outside in the future, do you believe that I'll beat you? "
"I don't believe." Qin Lie said with a smile, "Godfather said that I might be his only son in his life. I still have to take care of him when he's old, of course I have to call him father. And you, godmother … it feels so distant. Right, Mother? "
Yaoji felt powerless. She waved her hand and said, "Anyway, go and welcome your adoptive father. I'm not feeling well, so I won't be going. "
"Not feeling well?" Qin Lie looked at her in confusion.
"Yes. Go quickly. I really can't go. "
Qin Lie nodded seriously and said, "I understand. Mother, I'll be leaving first." Outside the door, Qin Lie looked back at Yaoji, who was sitting at the table in a daze, and said to himself, "Does she mean that … she wants father to visit her in person?"
In the courtyard behind the restaurant, Yaoji was sitting alone under a tree, playing the zither. The sound of the zither, which was supposed to be beautiful and smooth, was intermittent and unclear. The mind of the person under the tree was obviously not on the strings of the zither. She was absent-minded as she plucked the strings.
A series of steady footsteps came from the gate of the courtyard. Yaoji was stunned and looked back, only to see Qin Feng in black standing not far away and looking at her calmly. For some reason, Yaoji felt a little guilty.
Qin Feng walked up and looked down at her. After a long time, he asked, "Why don't you come out of the city?"
Yaoji stood up in a panic and said, "I … I have to look after the restaurant." In fact, almost all the people in the city went out to welcome the returning Mohist army. Even though Yaoji's restaurant was one of the best in Glass City, there was no business this morning.
"You're lying." Qin Feng stared at her and said indifferently. He was the leader of Qi Lin. If he couldn't even tell if someone was lying or not, he wouldn't be able to survive.
Yaoji was a little upset. She clenched her teeth and said in a low voice, "Fine, I'll say … I don't think we're suitable. Let's meet less in the future. This … I'll give it back to you! "Yaoji reached out to Qin Feng, holding the purple jade hairpin in her hand.
Qin Feng didn't get angry. Even his expression didn't change in the slightest. He said indifferently, "It's too late." Yaoji was surprised, "What's too late?" Qin Feng said, "A few years ago, before you went to the capital, you didn't give it back to me. I'll take it as a yes."
"I … I …" Miss Yaoji had always been good at dancing. Her dance in Qincheng Lane was enough to topple a city and stun the capital. Even in Jiangnan, she could still play with officials and noblewomen in Southern Chu and the entire Marquis Muyang's Mansion. But in front of this silent and calm man, she couldn't even say a word clearly. After a while, she clenched her teeth and said, "I said, it's impossible between us! What's your status and what's my status? If you really marry me, you'll only be laughed at by the world! "
"Who dares to laugh at me?" Qin Feng didn't care. There weren't many people in the world who dared to laugh at him. He was the leader of the most elite Qi Lin in the Prince Ding Mansion and Princess Ding's most trusted confidant. Now that the world had just settled down, everyone knew that he must have a promising future.
"Gossip is a fearful thing. You should go. These years, if … it's my fault. "Yaoji lowered her head and said. She didn't know when she had placed this man in her heart. Perhaps it was when he silently accompanied her day after day in the restaurant back then. Perhaps it was when he calmly comforted her in Jiangnan. Perhaps it was when he didn't want to make things difficult for her and was willing to let her hate him to personally get rid of Mu Yang for him. Perhaps … it was now. Even though she was moved by his feelings, she didn't want to hinder his future and make him a laughingstock.
Qin Feng nodded and said, "It's good that you know you're wrong. If you know you're wrong, you should change. Come with me. "Qin Feng pulled Yaoji out of the courtyard. Yaoji's strength was naturally no match for Qin Feng's, even though Qin Feng didn't use too much strength.
"Where … where are we going?"
"Prince Ding Mansion. I'm asking the Prince and Princess to grant a marriage," Qin Feng replied indifferently.
In the Prince Ding Mansion.
Ye Li calmly looked at the two people in front of her and asked, "Have you thought it through?"
"No …" Yaoji said anxiously. She didn't expect that Qin Feng would really pull her to Princess Ding. Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Qin Feng, "Replying to Wangfei, this subordinate has thought it through. Please grant my wish. "
People were distant from each other. Compared with Yaoji, Ye Li obviously cared more about Qin Feng's opinion. She just smiled and said, "But I think Yaoji didn't agree. Qin Feng, do you know what the punishment is for forcing a woman from a good family?"
"The heaviest punishment is one hundred and banishment for three thousand miles."
Ye Li smiled and nodded with satisfaction, "You're my confidant, so you don't have to be banished. But … if a prince breaks the law, he'll be punished with three hundred beatings. Are you lucky? "
"Yes, please grant my wish, princess."
Ye Li was immediately amused. She looked at Qin Feng with a smile and said, "Do you think I'll marry Yaoji to you if you can endure three hundred beatings?"
Mo Xiuyao, who had been watching the show, suddenly said, "Li, if Qin Feng can really endure three hundred beatings, it means he's not destined to die. You can give him face. Yaoji, don't worry. After all, you're the hero of the Prince Ding Mansion. I won't push you into the fire pit. After Qin Feng suffers three hundred beatings, I promise he won't be able to get up for the rest of his life. In the future … you can do whatever you want, right? "
Yaoji couldn't come to her senses. She really didn't understand what was going on. Why did she suddenly have to beat Qin Feng? Seeing that Princess Ding was about to call someone to drag Qin Feng out for punishment, Yaoji hurriedly cried, "No! No, princess, Qin Feng didn't force Yaoji. "
Ye Li raised her eyebrows, "Oh? Then who didn't you just say what? "
Yaoji was speechless. She looked at Prince Ding who was in high spirits. It seemed that as long as she said one wrong word, he would immediately pull Qin Feng and beat him severely. Yaoji said carefully, "I … I mean, you don't have to bother me with this kind of thing."
Ye Li smiled faintly, "What kind of trouble is this? You don't have a family, and Qin Feng is also alone. Naturally, your marriage will be arranged by the Prince Ding Mansion. Qin Feng, go back and tell Director Mo. Um … just arrange it according to the standard of a general. "As the commander of Qi Lin, Qin Feng's position was equal to that of a general who led an army.
"In addition, Yaoji is the hero of the Prince Ding Mansion and the manager of the intelligence in the south. She has worked hard these years. Let's arrange the dowry according to the rank of a county princess. The wedding will be held in the Prince Ding Mansion in August this year. What do you think? "
"Thank you, princess. Everything will be decided by you." Qin Feng agreed without hesitation.
When she came out of the Prince Ding Mansion, Yaoji was still a little dizzy. She forgot to care that she and Qin Feng walking together in the daytime would cause gossip. Qin Feng looked at her with a smile and said, "Now that the marriage has been decided, you should just stay at home and wait to get married."
"You …" Yaoji's expression was complicated. She was not young anymore. Women over 30 years old no longer dreamed of wearing a red wedding dress and getting married like ordinary women. But the man in front of her gave her everything she dreamed of. From his eyes, she could see that he really didn't care about the possible rumors and ridicule. If … if there was a man in the world who could take care of her like this, why would she refuse the happiness that was about to come to her?
"You don't want to run away from the marriage, do you?" Qin Feng frowned.
"No, I don't. I … I'll wait for you. "Yaoji calmed herself down and said in a deep voice.
Qin Feng's expression softened, and he said with a smile, "Okay, I'll take you back first."
"Qin Feng, you … do you know my name?"
"Of course I do." The tall man held the woman's slender hand, and while walking, he said with a faint smile, "Isn't your surname Shen? Shen Yao. "
"Yes, my name is Shen Yao."
She was Shen Yao, no longer Yaoji.
Qin Feng's Shen Yao.
