Chapter 181 The Little Queen Whose Wife Was Taken Away by the King (Huo Tingye Extra 1)
Interpretation: "Striving is fruitless and only adds to worries; rowing against the current brings suffering."
Huo Tingye rode a black and shiny horse, and wore armor stained with the smoke and blood of the battlefield. He led the victorious army back to the court in a majestic manner.
Along the way, the army was mighty and morale was high. The soldiers' footsteps were neat and powerful, raising clouds of dust.
When the army reached a forest, they suddenly heard noisy shouts and women's cries coming from the front.
Huo Tingye frowned, a trace of vigilance surged in his heart, and he waved his hand, signaling the army to stop.
He rode his horse forward, pushed aside the dense branches and leaves, and saw a group of bandits surrounding a fairly luxurious carriage and looting it wantonly.
Next to the carriage, the driver had already fallen in a pool of blood. A young woman who looked like a maid was being violently dragged by several bandits. Her originally pretty face was distorted by extreme fear and despair, and tears kept pouring out of her eyes like a flood.
However, even in such a desperate situation, the maid still fought to the death to protect the woman with an exquisite bun behind her.
Because the bandits' bodies blocked his view, Huo Tingye could not see the woman's true face, but he could feel her fragility just from her slightly trembling figure.
Huo Tingye's eyes were as sharp as torches. He swung the spear in his hand violently. The tip of the spear drew a sharp arc in the air. He kicked the horse's belly and rushed towards the bandits like an arrow.
Wherever the spear went, the bandits fell down one after another.
In a short while, the bandits were defeated and fled in all directions.
The soldiers following behind also acted quickly and subdued the bandits who tried to escape one by one.
After the situation was completely under control, Huo Tingye slowly pulled the reins and stopped the warhorse next to the carriage.
Then, he jumped off the horse with swift movements. He held the spear tightly in both hands and thrust it hard, and the spear stood firmly on the solid ground.
Then, he slowly took a step forward and walked towards the woman who was hugging her maid and crying loudly.
Huo Tingye frowned and looked down at the scene, feeling a little headache. He never liked weak women who cried.
Just like his mother, she was also a powerful female general.
and......
Huo Tingye took a quick look around and realized that he was weak, so he didn't bring more people with him to such a remote place.
There was only one coachman and two weak women in a carriage that looked like it belonged to someone rich or noble. Who else would they rob if not you?
Just as Huo Tingye was about to speak, the woman suddenly raised her head as if she had sensed his presence.
In an instant, the two people's eyes met and collided in the air, and the whole world seemed to freeze at this moment.
Her eyes were red and tears were welling up in them. Big tears rolled down her cheeks, leaving crystal tear marks on her fair skin.
Those originally clear and beautiful eyes were now blurred by tears and could hardly see anything, but one could still feel the panic and helplessness contained in them.
She looked at Huo Tingye timidly, her weak and pitiful appearance would make even the coldest person feel pity.
But suddenly, when her eyes met Huo Tingye, the eyes that were originally filled with fear and helplessness were suddenly replaced by gratitude and tenderness at this moment.
Her eyes were clear and bright, like a gurgling spring, so pure and transparent, deeply reflected in Huo Tingye's heart.
Perhaps no one in the world can resist such a gaze that is like looking up at a god, let alone it comes from such a stunningly beautiful woman.
Huo Tingye felt his heart tremble suddenly.
As the god of war of the Great Xia Kingdom, he has been admired and respected by countless people.
Protecting the people of Daxia is his unshirkable mission.
But at this moment, he suddenly felt an irresistible urge——
He wanted to protect the woman in front of him and prevent her from crying out of fear again.
This feeling came without warning, but it did not cause him any discomfort or disgust.
On the contrary, it was like a flower that quietly bloomed in spring, lingering in his heart and could not be shaken off.
"Thank you, General Huo." The beauty's voice was slightly choked, as light as the breeze blowing across the strings of a zither.
Who among the people of Daxia doesn’t know this handsome guardian god?
Qingwu wanted to struggle to get up, but was shocked to find that her whole body was limp, as if she had lost all her strength.
While Qingwu was silently crying, she found herself suddenly being gently embraced.
This sudden action made Qingwu stunned for a moment, and she was at a loss for what to do for a moment.
The arms that held her tightly were strong and powerful, and the embrace was warm and reassuring.
Qingwu slowly raised her eyes, and her gaze instantly met the man's extremely deep black eyes.
Just this one glance made her heart tremble, and she turned away hurriedly like a frightened deer.
After all, she is a married woman now, so how could she not understand the meaning of a man's eyes?
That was clearly a man's undisguised, most direct and indisputable desire for a woman.
A deep voice came from the head. "Won't your husband's family send more people to protect you? A weak woman dares to go alone to such a remote and desolate place. You are simply seeking death."
These cold words not only contained an obvious and undisguised disdain, but also concealed a subtle and barely perceptible trace of heartache.
After Qingwu heard these words, a hint of deep sadness appeared in her eyes.
Ever since she married into the Duke's Mansion, her life has been like walking on thin ice.
Her husband is cowardly and incompetent by nature, and her mother-in-law is very picky and disgusted with her.
What kind of person is Huo Tingye?
Seeing Qingwu like this, you can tell that her life is not easy.
Yes, she is so fragile.
What kind of person is that husband? He married such a beautiful woman, but he won’t protect her well! ?
That......
"Have you ever considered divorce? If you don't make changes, this kind of thing will happen again. I saved you this time, but what about next time?"
Qingwu was stunned and lowered her head.
Yes, she had had enough of this day.
She is just the prince's wife with a glamorous appearance, but only she knows the pain in her heart.
However, the world is difficult, especially for a woman.
Qing Wu's beautiful eyes were filled with endless sorrow, and her tone was so mournful and poignant that it moved everyone: "But, after the divorce, what else can I do? It will only expose my parents to more rumors and gossip. A divorced daughter will probably only be able to live a quiet and peaceful life in the future."
"No." Huo Tingye suddenly interrupted.
He couldn't stand the self-pitying and self-deprecating look of the beauty in front of him.
She is obviously so good.
