Xu Jingyang died. Immediately after giving birth to her daughter, she was stabbed to death by her own husband.
In her previous life, Xu Jingyang was the true eldest daughter of the Xu househo...
Chapter 134: People Imprisoned in the Cellar
Qi Yunshen went to get some water for Jiang Yunzheng to drink.
Jiang Yunzheng calmed down a bit. There was a figure blocking her way. She met Qi Yunshen's narrow eyes and moved her lips slightly:
"When it's daybreak, let's go out and take a look."
Qi Yunshen wiped the water stains from the corner of her mouth, and Jiang Yunzheng looked away awkwardly.
Qi Yunshen: "You go in first, I'll go out and find something to eat."
Jiang Yunzheng's brows tightened, "You are still injured."
Qi Yunshen touched Jiang Yunzheng's head and said, "I've suffered serious injuries on the battlefield. This is nothing to mention."
Jiang Yunzheng pursed her lips: "I'll go with you."
There is still white bone and green water grass in Qi Yunshen's body ready to move, and Jiang Yunzheng is worried.
Qi Yunshen stared at her and suddenly curled his lips: "That's fine."
Qi Yunshen was worried about leaving Jiang Yunzheng here alone.
The ancestral home is close to the mountains and forests, so it is convenient to go in and catch rabbits and pheasants.
Opposite the gate of the ancestral house is the main house where Jiang Yunzheng and his wife live. To the east is the kitchen and a utility room for storing firewood. To the west is an enclosed pigpen covered with a thick layer of dust.
Jiang Yunzheng took Qi Yunshen to the kitchen, where the chain was found.
There is a small wooden door behind the kitchen.
Qi Yunshen pushed the door open and found an open space behind it. He lifted the wooden board on the ground and found the cellar of the ancestral house underneath.
The two looked at each other. With the help of moonlight, they could basically see the entire cellar.
It's empty inside.
Jiang Yunzheng followed Qi Yunshen downstairs and saw deep and shallow scratches on the walls of the cellar.
Jiang Yunzheng bent her upper body slightly, "Hair."
There were a few strands of hair on the ground, and it didn't look like they had fallen off accidentally.
Qi Yunshen nodded, pulled Jiang Yunzheng up, and before leaving, his eyes swept across the corner of the cellar.
That's a tooth.
Has anyone ever been imprisoned here?
After leaving the cellar, Qi Yunshen found an old bow in the utility room, and the two of them headed towards the forest.
Along the way, Qi Yunshen held Jiang Yunzheng's hand tightly.
Jiang Yunzheng couldn't get rid of him, so she just let him do it.
Fortunately, their luck was good at night. Qi Yunshen soon hunted a rabbit and brought it back, and Jiang Yunzheng picked some wild vegetables.
In the kitchen, Qi Yunshen had lit a fire in the earthen stove in advance. The firelight illuminated Jiang Yunzheng's slightly red cheeks, and there was a layer of water in her dark eyes.
There are no tableware in the kitchen of the ancestral house.
Gao Xiu gave it to Jiang Yunzheng, but she didn't want to use it.
Qi Yunshen roasted a rabbit, washed the wild vegetables and covered the skin and meat with them, using the residual heat to cook the vegetables.
Jiang Yunzheng was not allowed to do anything.
Qi Yunshen tore the rabbit meat into small pieces and handed them to Jiang Yunzheng's mouth. Jiang Yunzheng couldn't help but said, "I can do it myself."
Qi Yunshen's lips curled slightly: "It's hot."
The man's eyes were deep, and the temperature in them seemed to melt her little by little. "Isn't it always like this before?"
There is no comparison between the past and the present.
In her previous life, she was pregnant and had no life experience. Qi Yunshen was afraid that she would melt if he held her in his mouth, and he wanted to carry her everywhere.
There are even more outrageous things than this.
She has regained consciousness now and is no longer the same as in her previous life!
The aroma filled her nostrils, and Jiang Yunzheng directly snatched the stick from Qi Yunshen's hand, "I'll eat this, and you eat that."
Qi Yunshen smiled faintly, "As you wish."
Jiang Yunzheng raised her eyes slightly and saw Qi Yunshen's thin jawline.
The firelight lengthened the two people's shadows, and then slowly merged into one.
The four years that were missed became concrete at this moment, and Jiang Yunzheng felt a surge of sadness in his heart.
After finishing dinner, it was almost midnight.
Even after rushing down from the river, both of them still had sand on their bodies.
Fortunately, there was a wooden barrel in the ancestral house. Qi Yunshen boiled two pots of hot water, tore off his undershirt to make soft cloth, and carried the water into the house.
Qi Yunshen looked at the person beside the bed and asked, "Should I wipe it for you, or do it yourself?"
Jiang Yunzheng glared at him: "Turn around."
Qi Yunshen smiled and turned around slowly.
Jiang Yunzheng moved quickly. After wiping herself, she put on her undershirt. There was only one bed in the room, and Jiang Yunzheng stood beside it, hesitating for a moment.
Qi Yunshen heard the movement behind him and turned around, "Are you still shy?"
Jiang Yunzheng turned around immediately: "How is that possible?"
After she finished speaking, Jiang Yunzheng lay down on the bed. There was still a faint smell of ointment from Qi Yunshen's body in the quilt.
Qi Yunshen took the wooden barrel out, wiped it himself in the kitchen, walked around the yard, and then went back to the house to lock the wooden bolt.
Hearing the sound, Jiang Yunzheng looked over, but her body subconsciously shrank back.
Qi Yunshen lifted the quilt and got on the bed, directly hugging the person in his arms, completely locking the person's limbs in his arms, and resting his chin on Jiang Yunzheng's head.
"Jing Yang."
It was quite cool in the mountains. When Qi Yunshen arrived, Jiang Yunzheng felt as if her whole body was on fire. Qi Yunshen's chest was behind her, and she felt lazy all over.
Jiang Yunzheng wanted to look up at Qi Yunshen, so she tilted her body slightly, and her lips just brushed the man's chin.
Jiang Yunzheng's ears were visibly red.
Her dark eyes met the man's deep gaze.
She tilted her head back, trying to keep some distance, "Let's go to the village tomorrow morning."
Qi Yunshen nodded and hugged Jiang Yunzheng tighter.
Suddenly, Jiang Yunzheng's whole body froze. She coughed lightly, "Um...put away your dagger."
The next moment, a light laugh escaped from Qi Yunshen's throat, and even his chest was shaking, but the two of them were not separated by any distance.
He gently stroked Jiang Yunzheng's flushed cheek and said, "I have missed you so much in these four years."
Jiang Yunzheng slowly stretched out her arms and hugged Qi Yunshen's waist.
The dream often shows the wedding night when Qi Yunshen lifted the veil and saw Xu Jingyang's young and timid face.
Xu Jingyang was afraid of strangers, especially Qi Yunshen, who was tall and taciturn. She wanted to hide in the wall when she slept at night. Qi Yunshen had no choice but to talk to Xu Jingyang tirelessly at night, talking about court affairs, military training at the Xishan camp, and interesting things in the mansion...
Xu Jingyang was young, but he knew the etiquette and had to reply to Qi Yunshen's words. After a few days, the strangeness and wariness in Xu Jingyang's eyes finally lessened.
After that, Qi Yunshen was responsible for Xu Jingyang's food, clothing, housing and transportation. He dressed and combed Xu Jingyang's hair every day and massaged his limbs before going to bed.
No one could have imagined that the indifferent and abstinent Prince of Zhenguo could achieve this.
As Xu Jingyang's belly grew bigger, she became more and more dependent on Qi Yunshen.
During these four years, all kinds of images of Xu Jingyang have been echoing in Qi Yunshen's mind, and he will never forget them until his death.
Jiang Yunzheng hugged Qi Yunshen tightly: "Tell me about you and Zhenzhen."
Qi Yunshen spoke in a low voice, telling the story slowly and leisurely.
