Chapter 550 A Life-Changing Event: Which One Should Que'er Choose?
"Madam General, don't be afraid."
"Is it really just to invite you into the palace for a chat?"
Eunuch Ji deliberately put on a friendly smile.
Li Qingluo: "Your Excellency misunderstands. I was just thinking that I might be going to the palace for a few days. The matter was sudden, and nothing was arranged at home."
"Please grant me half an incense stick's time to make some arrangements at home, would that be alright?"
As she spoke, Li Qingluo looked at Que'er beside her.
Que'er quickly stuffed a bulging money bag into Eunuch Ji's hand.
When Eunuch Ji saw Que'er, his eyes lit up.
He remembered this girl.
She did display some impressive skills at the banquet that night.
Eunuch Ji glanced at the sparrow a few more times, which angered the sparrow but it dared not speak out.
Li Qinglu frowned slightly, and then Eunuch Ji smiled and said, "Madam, please go and come back quickly."
Li Qingluo quickly returned to Tangdi Residence with Que'er.
Que'er kept her brows furrowed. Seeing this, Li Qingluo said, "You stay at home and keep watch for me. This time I'm taking Xiqiu to the palace."
Que'er looked shocked and disagreed.
“Miss, this trip to the palace is fraught with danger! Although Xiqiu is composed, she has not yet fully opened her heart to us, and she doesn’t know martial arts. How can she possibly serve you?”
"Miss, please let me go."
"There are many people and many things to do in the palace. If you make a mistake, you could lose your life. I will feel at ease if you let me follow you."
Sparrow looked anxious.
Li Qinglu shook her head and insisted, "That's how it's arranged. Just listen to me."
"You can use these few days at home to discuss your marriage with Sha San."
"Take care of your life's most important matters as soon as possible."
Que'er stared blankly, her eyes reddening: "Miss, you...you don't want Que'er anymore?"
Li Qinglu shook her head and chuckled: "Silly girl, from now on you'll be my Granny Sparrow, and I'll never let you leave me in this lifetime!"
Que'er then raised her hand to rub her eyes, and started crying and laughing at the same time.
It's just about getting married...
Que'er felt a headache coming on when she thought about what Zhui Yu had done over the past few months.
Since he woke up and learned that he had bitten her arm so badly that the flesh was almost torn off, he has been following Que'er around all day since he was able to get out of bed.
No matter how the sparrow chased him away, he wouldn't leave.
Once, she was so angry that she pushed him away. He stumbled and fell to the ground, hitting his head on the corner of the table. He was covered in blood on the spot, but he didn't care at all.
Sparrow was startled and tried to pull him away, but then she heard him say, "This is the punishment I deserve."
"I hurt you that day, and I should repay you a thousandfold."
Sparrow's face flushed with anger: "Do you think I care about this? I only protected you that day because I was following the young master's orders. Otherwise, I would have killed you on the spot!"
After saying that, Que'er turned around and was about to leave.
Zhuiyu smiled bitterly from behind: "Yeah, I'd rather be dead."
Sparrow got angry when she heard him say such a disheartening thing.
She turned around and slapped him across the face.
Are you even a man?
"Is your life truly your own?"
"Your two masters have high hopes for you and care for you deeply. When you were unconscious, His Highness would come to see you personally whenever he was home, and would ask about you several times a day."
"The young lady also sends you all kinds of precious medicinal herbs in a continuous stream, and everything you do, from clothing and food to housing and transportation, is done according to their standards?"
"If you die, think about whether you've done right by them!"
After cursing, the sparrow strode away.
Two days later, after chasing the rain, he began to follow the sparrow like a ghost again.
He dared not go inside except for Tangdi Residence.
Wherever the sparrow is, that's where he is.
Later, the panicked sparrow dared only hide beside her young lady and didn't dare to wander off anywhere.
During the Spring Festival, I had some free time to kill the three difficult ones.
Sparrow went to kill it several more times.
Sha San then noticed the figure of Zhui Yu.
The veins on his forehead bulged immediately, and he clenched his fists to fight Zhuiyu.
Sha San wasn't very good at talking, so he used all the special skills he knew.
Every move was deadly; a killing move was used.
Zhuiyu didn't hold back either, unleashing all her pent-up grievances and anger through her moves, with both of them wishing they could kill each other in the process.
For a time, they were evenly matched.
Seeing this scene, Que'er cried out anxiously and invited Li Qingluo over. Only then did the two of them release each other from their wounds.
From then on, he stayed in bed for more than half a month before he was able to get up.
Qinling cursed as he treated the illness, and his beard turned half white from exhaustion.
Afterwards, accompanied by Li Qingluo, Que'er went to find Zhuiyu and asked him what he really wanted to do.
Zhuiyu looked as if she had been seriously ill, appearing thin and emaciated.
He was initially happy to see Que'er coming over, but seeing her cold demeanor, he became disheartened again.
"Sparrow, do I have no chance at all?"
"All those outrageous things I said back then were my fault. I'd rather lose half my life than not atone for them."
"I'd rather die and go to hell for my cousin's sake, as if I've wronged her! But I can't just stand by and watch you marry Sha San!"
"Originally... originally you liked me."
"I don't know if you've let go of me, but I can't let go of you at all!"
"Sparrow, please give me another chance, don't give up on me...don't abandon me...please?"
The sparrow ran away.
She only dared to cry when she was in front of Li Qingluo.
"Girl, he's gotten so thin."
"I'm not a good girl."
Li Qinglu patted her head: "Who said that? If our Que'er weren't a good girl, how could she have attracted two such outstanding young men who are so fond of you?"
"They're not blind."
"But Que'er, this is a lifelong matter, you really need to think it through."
"You know better than I do what kind of person Zhuiyu used to be."
"He was unrestrained and carefree, and not concerned with trivial matters. Although he was sometimes a bit too lively and eccentric, he was indeed a man of great loyalty and affection."
"If one were not loyal and righteous, one would not be bound by the so-called cousin and the engagement."
"This relationship has turned him into a trapped beast; he's practically half dead."
"If you're determined not to have him anymore, then be even more ruthless in letting go. A short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one; he'll get better eventually."
"And Sha San, he also has a sincere heart for you. Although he is sullen, he only comes alive when he is with you."
"Do you know how much Sha Yi and the others envied him?"
"But if you still prefer Zhuiyu and can't let go of Zhuiyu, is that fair to Sha San?"
The sparrow slowly lowered its head.
She went to see Sha San.
Killing Sanhao is much faster than chasing Yu.
Because the sparrow would come to see him every day and feed him medicine.
Sha San was radiant with health, a stark contrast to Zhui Yu, who looked as if he were still stuck in a swamp.
Que'er, unwilling to lie to Sha San, said that she had just gone to see Zhui Yu.
Sha San's face was filled with tension.
But instead of mentioning Zhuiyu, he pulled Que'er aside and started talking about other things.
"I've heard that the pastries at Dongxiangzhai are the best in Nan'an. I've always wanted to take you there to buy some and try them myself. Would you like to come out with me these next few days?"
"Sha Yi and the others have been urging us, asking when we can drink our wedding wine... I said I'll wait for your decision, Que'er."
"Whenever you wish, please?"
"Miss, you may be sending someone to Rongle on business after the New Year. Would you like to come with me?"
Que'er held tightly to Sha San's hand.
"Kill three!"
