Such heartfelt words made Qu Li's throat tighten.
The movement to push him away was delayed for a moment.
Feng Yi rested his chin on the top of her head, "Li'er, when I was little, I dreamed of having a mother's love. However, my mother was just a palace maid. If it weren't for the Queen's hypocrisy, she might not have been able to bring me into this world."
Qu Li couldn't see his expression, but just listened to him calmly talking about his childhood. He felt very sad and depressed.
She raised her hand and patted his back gently.
"It's all over!"
"When I was little, my mother's palace was very cold and dilapidated, and my father never came again after that night!
People in the palace are used to flattering the powerful and looking down on the weak. It is a luxury for me to eat chestnut cake!
Later, Southern Qi was defeated and had to send a prince to Dagan as a hostage! My father, the emperor, finally appeared before my mother again.
Qu Li wanted to look up to see his expression, but his big hand fell on the back of her head, holding her tightly in his arms.
"I knelt on the ground, begging him to revoke the imperial decree! It rained heavily that day, soaking wet, but there was nothing I could do to change anything!"
"It's all over!"
He had suffered injustice since childhood, came to a foreign country at a young age, and endured so much humiliation and suffering, but he still did not succumb to fate. She admired Feng Yi from the bottom of her heart.
"No!" He held her shoulders and looked at her without blinking.
There was heartache in her eyes, and he saw it clearly.
And she just looked at the man opposite quietly.
There was a hint of red at the corners of his eyes, and a gloomy gloom beneath his eyes that had never faded.
Her heart tugged twice, and she couldn't help but reach out and cover his cheek.
"Feng Yi, you will definitely be the winner!"
He held her hand and kissed it, "I will try my best to be the one standing at the top!"
"I believe it!"
The two sat in silence for a while before Qu Li broke the silence: "When do you plan to return to Southern Qi?"
"Tomorrow evening!"
With Xiao Xian escorting them all the way, even if those bastards of Southern Qi wanted to do something, they would not be Xiao Xian's match.
And with his inner strength, he could return to Southern Qi in advance and catch those bastards off guard.
Qu Li suddenly felt a strong sense of reluctance in his heart.
She thought about it, pretended to open the cabinet, and actually took out a bunch of bottles and jars from the space.
"These include medicine for injuries and poison."
Feng Yi felt warm in his heart.
He looked at her profile and wanted to kiss her.
I don’t know if I’m sick or poisoned.
After kissing her, every time I see her lips, I can't help but want to taste the sweet taste.
Noticing his intense gaze, Qu Li raised her eyes and asked, "What's the dirt on your face?"
"No!" He was silent for a moment, then held her hand again, "I'll take you somewhere."
"where?"
“You’ll know when you get there!”
After hesitating for a moment, Qu Li nodded.
She knew that this was not a good thing, but after hearing what he had done before, she couldn't refuse.
Feng Yi took her, avoided the secret guards of the palace, and rushed all the way to the suburbs.
"Is there anything special here?"
It's just a mountain. She really doesn't understand why Feng Yi brought her here so late at night.
"When I first came to Dagan, not only did the powerful people in Dagan like to bully me, but even the people sent by Nanqi tried every possible way to bully me."
Qu Li felt sorry for him.
Since the kiss had already happened, she decided to put aside all those messy concerns for the time being and stop being pretentious.
Feng Yi flew her to the tree, with a smile on his face the whole time.
He was telling her that his childhood memories were not happy ones after all.
But he didn't want to infect her with his bad mood, so the corners of his mouth were always raised.
Qu Li held his hand with his backhand, applying a little force.
Her hands were warm, and they made him feel peaceful and tranquil.
"I came here by chance one time. At that time, I didn't know any martial arts, so I could only hide in that crevice." Feng Yi pointed to two stones not far away.
There was a gap between the two stones that was big enough for a child to crawl into. She imagined the young Feng Yi, who had just left his hometown and was like a poor little thing, being bullied. He ran here alone and hid in the gap between the stones. He must be very sad and wronged.
The Emperor of Southern Qi had many sons, all of whom were older than him, but he still sent Feng Yi to a foreign country and left him to fend for himself.
Thinking of this, Qu Li's heart felt a little moist, and the look in her eyes when she looked at him became particularly gentle.
The curve of Feng Yi's mouth deepened a little, and he gently touched her forehead with his slender fingers, like the big brother next door.
Qu Li's heartstrings seemed to be plucked by something, and she seemed to hear the sound of intoxicating music.
"It's not that bad actually! After all, with my mother's background, if I stayed in Southern Qi, I would probably still be bullied! There's no way my mother would be made a concubine!"
Although the old witch Queen has always controlled my mother over the years, the palace servants will not do anything too blatant!
In the following years, he grew rapidly and gained his own power.
The people he arranged secretly protected his mother, so her life was not so difficult.
The more lightly he spoke, the more Qu Li felt sorry for him.
Perhaps thinking of him as a poor little kid who had lost his parents and relatives in a war-torn area and needed comfort, Qu Li reached out and hugged him.
Feng Yi's whole body was tense and his breathing became disordered.
"Li'er?"
Qu Li looked at him and said, "You will be very good in the future!"
Feng Yi smiled.
"I used to think my life was filled with suffering and injustice, but until I met you, I began to believe that God is indeed fair! I have indeed suffered a lot, but I also met you! Li'er, I love you!"
The unexpected confession made Qu Li's heart beat faster and her face turned red as if it could boil a shrimp.
Feng Yi held her head in his arms and said, "There is the most beautiful sunrise here. Sleep for a while. I'll call you when it's dawn!"
"good!"
He hugged her, and she rested her head on his shoulder. The silver moonlight fell on them, like the most gorgeous painting in the world.
The sky gradually turned pale, and the sun jumped out of the horizon like a naughty child.
Feng Yi didn't close his eyes that night, looking at her greedily, wishing he could engrave her beautiful face deeply in his mind.
"woke up?"
Meeting his affectionate eyes, Qu Li, who was sleeping soundly, woke up instantly.
"You didn't stay up all night, did you?"
Looking at the bloodshot in his eyes, she couldn't hide her concern.
"No! I can bear it."
Qu Li said with a straight face, "He returned to the capital from Fengcheng in one night, and then he stayed up all night. The Fifth Prince is in very good health indeed!"
It was obviously sarcastic, but Feng Yi felt very sweet and warm in her heart!
