Chapter 930: North and Love (13)
As the sky gradually darkened, the aunt who was taking care of the children came to call them to eat.
Beiji fell silent. The last story was about the city defense battle between Beisha City and Beidi more than a year ago.
When talking about Shu He, a woman who led 5,000 old, weak, sick and disabled defense soldiers to defend the city, his eyes were gentle and affectionate, and filled with deep admiration and love.
Gong Fu saw the change in his expression clearly, and her mood sank to the bottom with this discovery.
So, he already had someone in his heart.
No wonder his personality is so different from what is described in the legend. It turns out that it is because he was injured.
Who in this world doesn't know that the woman who captured the city of Beisha back then is the current Princess Li, the first female army of Tianqi, the chief general of the Zhenhe Army, Shu He!
He fell in love with someone he shouldn't have, so his personality became so silent, right?
The children were eating but still not satisfied, so they pulled Beiji to ask more questions.
But Beiji was no longer in the mood to talk about what happened back then.
At this moment, Da Xi suddenly screamed, scaring Gong Fu back to her senses from her complicated emotions.
"Daxi, what's wrong with you?"
"Brother Qingfeng and Brother Qingliu don't know we're here yet!"
Gong Fu was also shocked. Oh, if those two children couldn't see them, they would probably be as anxious as she was, right?
"It's okay, I'll go back to the deserted temple to find them."
Gong Fu asked Da Xi and the others to eat first, and she went to bring the two children over.
Before leaving, she looked towards Beiji, her voice becoming weaker, "Can you go with me? I, I don't know the way..."
It’s not that she wanted to create an opportunity for the two of them to be alone together. This time, she really didn’t know how to get from here to the deserted temple where they lived.
Beiji wanted to refuse, but Daxi grabbed his arm and begged, "Big brother, can you help us? Brother Qingfeng and Qingliu will be worried sick if they can't see us!"
The little bun followed suit, grabbed Beiji's sleeve and shook it vigorously, "Big brother, can you help us?"
Seeing that his expression had changed due to being pestered by the children, Gong Fu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she looked apologetic as she said, "If you don't want to go, you can find someone to take me there."
In the end, Beiji brought Gong Fu out.
There was a distance between the former palace and the deserted temple, so he asked for two horses.
"Can you ride a horse?"
he asks.
Gong Fu shook her head, "I've only ever ridden in a carriage."
Bei Ji frowned, somewhat puzzled. "Aren't you the daughter of the leader of the Sanjiang League? How come you can't even ride a horse?"
He had heard a little about the Sanjiang League. It was a new force that emerged in Jiangnan. In less than half a year, it unified Jiangnan, Jiangbei and Jiangxi areas, and also took over all the martial arts sects there, establishing the Sanjiang League.
The leader of the Sanjiang League, Gong Yingyi, is said to be a master of the early second rank. In the early days of the Sanjiang League, many sects were unwilling to be controlled by others and wanted to unite to resist the Sanjiang League. However, they were all suppressed and subdued by Gong Yingyi with absolute means.
Today's Jiangnan and Jiangbei can be said to have been conquered by Gong Yingyi single-handedly! Such a figure can be regarded as a great hero of his generation.
But as Gong Yingyi's daughter, not only does she not know martial arts, she can't even ride a horse! This is too unreasonable.
As if seeing through his confusion, Gong Fu explained, "My father never let me learn martial arts. He only let me study and paint. When I was little, I couldn't even leave the house. If it weren't for this time..."
As if she had mentioned something unpleasant, her expression changed slightly and she swallowed the rest of her words.
Beiji was no fool. From her previous conversation with the men of the Sanjiang League, he knew that she had run away from her marriage. Her father wanted to marry her to some old man.
I didn't expect that a second-rank master would actually do such a thing as selling his daughter in exchange for benefits.
He mounted his horse, then pulled her behind him and took off with her.
"Hold on."
As the sound fell, the horse galloped away, and Gong Fu was so scared that she reflexively hugged the person in front of her.
His waist is very thin but very hard. Putting your hand on it is like pressing on a warm stone, which makes people imagine a lot.
Her cheeks flushed instantly. She wanted to withdraw her hand, but was afraid of falling, so she could only bite the bullet and hold on to his clothes.
The occasional physical collisions made her heart beat wildly. She couldn't see the expression of the person in front of her, and wondered if he was also like her, with flushed cheeks and a panicked heart?
Probably, no.
After all, there is another person in his heart.
Thinking of this, Gong Fu's heart instantly cooled. The burning temperature in her cheeks also gradually subsided and returned to normal.
The horses were very fast, and in less than a quarter of an hour they arrived outside the deserted temple.
The things she had bought were still at the entrance of the deserted temple, but the temple was pitch black, with only the sound of a child crying.
"Qingliu!!"
Gong Fu's heart tightened, and as soon as the horse stopped, Bei Ji got off.
Gong Fu also jumped down like him, but found that her lower body was very sore. The moment her feet touched the ground, her legs went weak and she almost fell down.
Fortunately, the person next to her was quick-witted and hugged her.
"Are you okay?"
The voice was calm and no emotion could be heard.
Gong Fu shook her head at him, then endured the discomfort and rushed into the deserted temple.
"Qingliu! Where are you? My sister is back!"
When they heard her voice, the crying in the temple stopped instantly, and then rushed out from the darkness.
"Sister Fuer!!"
Qingliu rushed into Gong Fu's arms, her voice hoarse.
"Qingliu, it's okay, it's okay, sister is here!"
"I thought something happened to you all! I thought I was going to kill you! Sister Fu'er, I was wrong! I was wrong! I am sorry for you all!"
Qingliu burst into tears, as if he was very frightened. In the moonlight, one could vaguely see his red and swollen eyes and his face full of fear.
Gong Fu didn't understand the meaning behind his words. She only smiled and comforted him, "Silly boy, we have encountered a great fortune! How could anything go wrong?"
"It's my fault. I didn't think of telling you when I left, and I didn't come back to see you earlier."
"It's all right now. Sister is back. I'm here to pick you up and go find Daxi Baozi and the others!"
As Gong Fu was talking, she seemed to notice something was wrong. "Where's Qingfeng? Why didn't he come out? Did he go out to look for us?"
"Hurry, go call him back. I'll take you to a good place. From now on, we'll have..."
"Brother Qingfeng is in trouble!"
Qingliu's words immediately stopped Gong Fu's voice.
