Chapter 132 I dare not think about the wild history
After not seeing each other for a while, Wu Tongtong, who was wearing a black dragon robe, looked better than before. Not only was her delicate face red, but her voice was also full of energy...
Wei Mingqi was just about to make a second excuse.
"Tongtong, why are you here——"
Unexpectedly, the 'big bluefish' in front of him was even more panicked than him. He quickly stood up, wiped the tears from his face with both hands, and said with a forced smile:
"He, he didn't bully my aunt, what are you thinking?"
At this moment, her rationality returned to her, and she felt that no matter what, she had to break the tooth and swallow it. Otherwise, this "evil dog" was extremely vicious, and what good would come of it if the little emperor got involved?
"..."
Hearing this, Wu Tongtong's eyes widened a little.
After she received the letter from Wei Mingqi, she hurried over, fearing that he had fallen into her aunt's trap. But as soon as she arrived, she saw a woman clinging to Wei Mingqi's shoulders and crying. But before she could get angry, her aunt said that this was not bullying.
If it's not bullying, then it's just a hug?
At the beginning, it was Wei Mingqi who was hugged by his aunt. Could the truth be -
As she thought about it, the girl's expression became uglier.
Wu Tongtong knew very well how much her aunt hated Wei Mingqi. As long as she had the chance, she would kill Wei Mingqi without hesitation.
So when she woke up earlier, she was sure that her aunt wanted to paralyze Wei Mingqi, so she eased the relationship with him. But at first she thought that her aunt's way of easing the relationship was to use her as a raft, so she hurt Wei Mingqi like that.
But now it seems that she is just young and has shallow ideas.
This is not to use her as a raft, my aunt is trying to feed the wolf with her own body——
In some periods of history, in order to deal with the treacherous ministers who had the power to do whatever they wanted, many powerful people at that time used beauty traps or showed favors to paralyze the person concerned, and then found a suitable opportunity to eliminate him. These methods were not uncommon.
But it is rare for someone to sacrifice a child to catch a wolf like her. It is simply——
Wu Tongtong was so angry that her whole body was shaking, and she felt a surge of anger and grievance in her heart.
She didn't want to use harsh words to describe her aunt, but her aunt was too...
Especially since I knew that she still had some feelings for that man, I never thought about how she would feel after she found out about all this!
"Tongtong."
Wei Mingqi was the first to notice that something was wrong with her. He took two steps forward and subconsciously called out her nickname: "Your aunt just remembered something sad, and I was just comforting her. You didn't misunderstand me, did you?"
The woman beside him also reacted at this time, and quickly walked to the girl, grabbed her hand, touched her forehead and said:
"It's okay, it's really okay, auntie, I——"
"It's okay, why are you still picking on him?"
Wu Tongtong suddenly exploded and shook off her hand. Enduring the darkening vision, she pointed at Wei Mingqi and said sternly:
"Wei Mingqi! I now relieve you of all your duties and order you to go to Yunzhou and live a law-abiding life. You are not allowed to come back!"
"..."
Wu Tongtong often loses her temper, but this is the first time she loses her temper like this, so both of them are temporarily calmed down by her.
"Are you going to listen to me?"
The girl's crying voice was revealed a little:
"Take me as your friend and leave now!"
"...Tongtong, aunt me."
The Zhao family woman's emotions, which she had just suppressed, now showed signs of being unable to be contained again, especially when she saw the grief and anger in the girl's eyes. She felt cold and powerless all over, and a feeling of helplessness as if she were drowning arose in her heart. She couldn't utter a word for a while, but instinctively felt like crying.
Tongtong has always been smart in schoolwork, so he probably figured it out.
The two of them were together day and night, and there would always be a time when something would slip out. The woman was mentally prepared. She would have foreseen this scene and would have felt ashamed in her heart.
She was prepared, but when the moment came, she had no emotions at all.
Wu Tongtong felt wronged, but she was also wronged.
"hiss--"
A soft hissing sound was heard. The woman did not make any excuses. She just rubbed her eyes and touched the girl's forehead, and said softly:
"Auntie was wrong, don't be angry, Tongtong."
"..."
Hearing these words that sounded like a personal admission, Wu Tongtong felt a black screen before his eyes and his body fell backwards involuntarily.
"Tongtong!"
A cry of surprise was heard, but someone was one step faster than her subconscious action.
"... You are so stupid, why are you admitting your mistakes when there is nothing wrong!"
Wei Mingqi held Wu Tongtong's hand and felt his scalp tingling. He pressed her philtrum with one hand and held her wrist with the other hand to check.
Medicine and martial arts have been inseparable since ancient times. He can diagnose common minor illnesses and fevers with just a touch of his hands.
"It's okay, it's just that the qi is not flowing smoothly."
For most ordinary people with this symptom, they just need to be helped to the side to rest and calm their nerves, but as everyone knows, a sick person like Wu Tongtong cannot be treated with common sense, so to be safe, Wei Mingqi sucked her fingers like he did last time.
Anyway, it’s always a good idea to make up for it whenever you have time.
"Woo——"
Seeing that he seemed to have a solution, the woman, who had relaxed, finally burst into tears. She collapsed to the ground powerlessly, covering her face and crying.
After entering the palace and getting rid of both of them, Wei Mingqi felt his scalp tingling and thought that Wan Renshan was guilty of a heinous crime.
"Don't cry, let her rest for a while."
“…Ha, okay.”
The woman from the Zhao family, who had suffered too much grievance today, could not control her tears. She could only stand up tremblingly while crying. The process was a bit difficult, but fortunately she was supported by Yudie halfway.
"Help me to the back."
"..."
The crying sound gradually faded away. Wei Mingqi suppressed the complicated feelings in his heart. He frowned and fanned Wu Tongtong in his arms, while the dragon essence between his other fingers was passed into the girl's mouth.
"I now relieve you of all your duties"
"I order you to return to Yunzhou immediately..."
A faint emotion spreads in the heart, how can it not make people melancholy.
When the storms in the world gradually subside, those who want to climb mountains will climb mountains, and those who want to return to the sea will return to the sea. This is also a good way to part ways.
"……Um."
Wei Mingqi was lost in thought, but the girl in his arms had already opened her eyes. When she saw the profile of the man above her, she was stunned for a moment, and then her small lilac tongue touched the rough fingerprints and the faint sweet smell.
"Wei Mingqi..."
She slowly bit the young man's finger and murmured a little unclearly:
"Is this also what you gave me to eat that day?"
"..."
Wei Mingqi came back to his senses and lowered his head. He said with a "hmm" and a grin, "I raised you with my own hands. Be grateful to me."
"..."
After staring at him for a while, the girl, with a sour nose, turned her head and buried her face in his arms, crying:
"Wei Mingqi, please go back to Yunzhou."
Wei Mingqi's mouth twitched as he said, "Why? You chase people away as soon as you wake up. You emperors are too mean."
"Woo..."
Wu Tongtong couldn't explain the reason, and she was so sad that her chest was soon wet from her crying.
"... Stop crying." Wei Mingqi reached out and took off her dragon hairpin, then stroked her long hair that flowed down smoothly to the top of her head, massaging her gently to relax her:
"If you don't chase me away after a while, I will leave too. You should just take good care of yourself in the palace for the time being. Don't go out too much when you have nothing to do. And don't worry about your aunt. With the old man in the palace, she is just fooling around."
"..."
It turned out that he also knew what his aunt was thinking.
Wu Tongtong, who sensed some meaning in the words, wanted to ask, but when she heard that Wei Mingqi also wanted to leave, she couldn't help but put aside those "details" and put her arms around his waist.
This was the first time in her life that she had the courage to do this.
When she was little, she always thought that she was an emperor and could have whatever she wanted. The cricket "man" was just meat rotting in her pot, so she was not interested in hugging him.
When she grows up, she wants young boys to hug her!
But as she got older, she realized that being an emperor was not so glorious and she could not get everything easily, especially when she was young. She was becoming taller and more handsome, and her martial arts skills had made extraordinary progress. People could not help but think that this 'little prisoner' could be a great man who could conquer half of her empire in the future.
Looking at myself, I became increasingly sickly. My body stopped growing after I turned ten. Even the only position that could embellish me seemed shaky. The imperial decrees were secretly disobeyed not only in areas outside the Great Wall, but even in Guanzhong.
So the most noble daughter in the world actually felt inferior to the person next to her.
“…Ugh.”
The crying sound started again in my arms.
Wu Tongtong couldn't control herself as she tightly hugged the waist, which was much wider than she had imagined. In fact, she didn't really blame Wei Mingqi.
Many times after she had vented her anger at Wei Mingqi, she would reflect on herself. If she could be like her grandfather the Emperor in his time and make the country prosperous, how could all those storms outside have affected Wei Mingqi?
It's because she, the emperor, is insignificant that others don't take Wei Mingqi seriously. Otherwise, if she were like Concubine Shi who was always smiling wherever she went, there wouldn't be so many things happening now.
"Wu...Wei Mingqi."
Wu Tongtong pressed her face against his waist, as if he would disappear like mist in the next second, and said, "I, I can't bear to leave you. We, we wish we were born in a prosperous era."
"..."
Wei Mingqi's heart softened, and he patted her back gently and said, "You are still so young, and there are endless possibilities in the future. When you recover from your illness, you may be able to rebuild your country in less than half your life."
These words were not entirely meant to comfort her.
Not to mention the due meaning of curing the disease, he felt disgusted about taking things from Dongfang Ming in the future, so it would be a good opportunity to return them to the Wu family and complete the childhood friendship between the two of them for many years.
With Guanzhong and Lu in hand and Wanren Mountain as a support, he has the capital to consolidate the country. Not to mention that Wu Tongtong can get the title of "Thousand Faces Emperor" in the game, which shows that he has the potential and qualifications.
In fact, looking at the world in the original world line, Wu Tongtong, who did not appear many times, is the biggest winner.
Although in this life, under his iron-fisted education, Wu Tongtong's dark side cannot be seen at the moment, but as I said, the future is promising.
"Then I will definitely come to find you in the future—"
Wu Tongtong wiped her snot in his arms and cried, "Don't be too old by then."
"……Row."
Wei Mingqi patted her gently and stopped talking. After a while, the breathing in his arms gradually became even. Seeing that Wu Tongtong, who was tired of crying, fell asleep, Wei Mingqi looked up and gave a look to the old woman not far away.
Although she showed a lot of affection, in the eyes of others it was just sweet talk to coax the little emperor. The old woman, who knew how Wei Mingqi bullied the mother and daughter, walked over with hostile eyes and carefully took Wu Tongtong over.
"Go."
Wei Mingqi waved at the old woman indifferently.
As I said, there are so many people who love him and hate him, so do whatever you want, just take your number plate and line up slowly.
"Humph."
After she took Wu Tongtong away.
Wei Mingqi, feeling a little tired, was about to leave, but when he heard the faint crying sound from the back hall, he couldn't help but stop.
Isn't it a bad idea to just walk away like this?
The woman behind me was quite upset today. If she goes crazy or stupid, not to mention him, even the old man’s reputation will be ruined in this life. Even if he conquers ten more Qian Dynasties, he will have to record it like this:
'After being deceived, he became stupid.'
God knows how history books will be written in the future, and God knows how wild the unofficial history of the people will be.
Thinking of this, Wei Mingqi became scared and turned to go to the back hall.
"hiss--"
"what--"
That very special and sad crying sound reached his ears. After entering the back hall, Wei Mingqi saw the woman in black palace dress lying on the couch with her face down crying. He couldn't help but feel even more strange.
These two are indeed related by blood.
When I cry, I like to find a place to bury my face...
"You go down first."
After signaling to Yudie, who was standing beside him trembling and looking worried, Wei Mingqi walked to the couch without hiding his steps and said:
"Tongtong is fine."
"hiss--"
The woman from the Zhao family must have been immersed in grief and unable to extricate herself. She didn't listen to what he said and only showed him her curvy, gourd-shaped back.
"..."
"cough!"
Wei Mingqi coughed heavily, stretched out his hand and poked her, "Holy Queen?"
"Um?!"
The woman who was suddenly poked in the calf retracted her legs as if she had received an electric shock, then turned halfway around, and looked at him doubtfully with her tear-swollen fox eyes, saying:
"what are you up to!"
"..."
Seeing her instinctively pull the quilt to cover her chest, Wei Mingqi couldn't help but twitch his lips, feeling a strong sense of distrust.
As for?
It’s not like he hasn’t seen bigger ones.
So Wei Mingqi said in a serious tone: "I am here to report to the Holy Queen. His Majesty just fell asleep and was taken away. I hope the Queen Mother takes care of herself!"
Hearing this, the Zhao family woman, who initially thought he wanted to do something to her in this secret place, felt relieved and subconsciously said in a dignified tone:
"Understood, you go down."
"..."
Wei Mingqi, who originally wanted to give her a little stab, was speechless, but seeing that she was still trying to figure out her stance, he thought it was not a big deal, so he folded his hands and said:
"A small farewell."
"..."
The woman with a throbbing pain in her brain quickly reacted and immediately raised her hand and said:
"and many more--"
"..."
Seeing Wei Mingqi stop and turn around with a frown, the Zhao family woman quickly adjusted her mentality and smiled enthusiastically:
"I haven't thanked you yet, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Now that you have cried enough and your tears have all run dry, you have to make amends for your previous actions. Otherwise, this thief with a heart smaller than the tip of a needle may come back and cause more trouble.
"..."
Wei Mingqi's frown slowly relaxed.
Was it because Wu Tongtong didn't make enough trouble just now, or was it because this woman just couldn't learn her lesson?
Again?
