#681 - The final light is round
Two hours later, at the beginning of Hai hour.
The night was cool and damp.
It was now late at night, and Liangzhou City looked dark and gloomy, with only a few houses still lit.
However, just as Wei Changtian's carriage came to a stop outside the small courtyard, several small lanterns emitting a soft light were lit outside the carriage.
"Brother Changtian."
"Young Master."
Liang Qin and Yang Liushi had already led several maids to wait at the gate, each wrapped in a thick cloak.
Although Wei Changtian had left in the morning and returned in the evening, the two women still felt that today was particularly long, fearing that something might go wrong at the peace talks, and they had been restless all day.
Fortunately, it now seemed that everything was fine.
"Brother Changtian, was an agreement reached?"
Liang Qin walked quickly to his side and asked in a somewhat uneasy whisper, "Will Yan Huaiqing withdraw his troops?"
"Yes, with me personally taking charge, what waves can a mere Yan Huaiqing make?"
Wei Changtian was now in a very relaxed mood, and he took the lantern from Liang Qin's hand with a smile: "Now the two countries of Jue and Ji on the Tianshan side have already started fighting each other, and they will all roll back in two days."
"Really?"
A hint of surprise flashed in Liang Qin's eyes, and she breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
"Phew, that's good, it's good if there's no war."
"Hahaha, naturally it's good to have no war."
After laughing twice, Wei Changtian turned to look at Yang Liushi again.
Their eyes met in mid-air, and there was a long-lost sense of intimacy.
Since returning from Bailing Mountain, there had been some vague estrangement between Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi.
But at this moment, this barrier seemed to finally loosen, and everything seemed to return to the way it was at the beginning.
"Liushi ."
"Young Master ."
The two smiled and opened their mouths at the same time, preparing to say something to each other.
Now that the peace talks had finally come to a successful conclusion, Wei Changtian should want to have a good chat with Yang Liushi and completely clarify his attitude towards having children.
And Yang Liushi might have also figured out something today, feeling that there should be no estrangement between the two, and that it would be good as long as they could be together, no matter what.
"I, I am pregnant ."
" ."
A crescent moon hung in the sky, like a slightly flawed white jade plate.
When the moon is bright, the stars are sparse, so there are very few stars in the night sky.
In the bedroom, Wei Changtian looked at Liang Qin's happy face and asked in a low voice:
"Really pregnant? When did it happen?"
"I only found out last night."
Liang Qin replied a little embarrassed: "Yesterday I found that my period hadn't come, which was a little strange, so I asked a doctor to come and take my pulse today."
"And then found out that I was indeed pregnant ."
"Is this what you were talking about this morning?"
Wei Changtian didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Why did you hide such a good thing?"
"Didn't you not know for sure this morning?"
Liang Qin glared at Wei Changtian: "Besides, you were going to negotiate with Yan Huaiqing today, and I was afraid of distracting you, so I thought about telling you later."
"What? Are you blaming me for not telling you right away?"
"What are you saying! How could I blame you!"
Wei Changtian smiled sheepishly and apologized, bending down to carefully examine Liang Qin's lower abdomen, the corners of his mouth rising more and more exaggeratedly.
Before, he had always felt that he was not ready to be a father, and always felt that he should wait a few more years, until he was more mature before it was suitable to have a child.
But now that Liang Qin was already pregnant, and "being a father" had become an imminent thing . Wei Changtian then realized that the anxiety in his heart had long since disappeared, replaced by anticipation and longing for a new life.
"Oh, what are you looking at?"
"The doctor said it's only been half a month at most, what can you see now ."
On the other side, Liang Qin reached out and pushed Wei Changtian, her tone reproachful, but her face was full of unconcealable joy.
She lowered her head and looked at her stomach, and soon forgot what she had just said, and murmured happily:
"Brother Changtian, do you think it's a boy or a girl?"
"It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl! It's best to have twins!"
Wei Changtian straightened up with a smile: "Besides, we're not just having this one, sooner or later we'll have both boys and girls!"
"Oh, what are you talking about!"
Liang Qin was even more shy when she heard this, and whispered: "I also think it's good to have both boys and girls, but if it's a boy, I think my mother-in-law and father-in-law should be happier."
"Hey, don't worry, they'll be happy no matter what!"
"Really . Brother Changtian, now that Liangzhou is no longer at war, how about we go back to Shuzhou City in a few days when the Da Jue army withdraws?"
"Okay! I'll listen to you! You can take good care of yourself then, and I'll be with you all the time!"
"Then, then you have to be nicer to me in the future!"
"What are you saying, when have I not been good to you?"
"Well, I don't care, it has to be even better than before!"
"Hahaha, okay, I promise you whatever you say!"
"You said that . By the way, Brother Changtian, do you think I can still practice the saber while I'm pregnant? I haven't practiced the Guichen Saber to perfection yet."
"This . why don't you not practice for now?"
"But it shouldn't matter, right ."
"Then I'll find a good doctor to ask tomorrow, and if the doctor says it's okay, then it's okay."
"Okay! Oh, oh, and also! I've come up with a few names for the child, do you want to hear them?"
"No, Qin'er, isn't it a little early to name it now ."
"Oh! Just listen to them first!"
"Okay, okay, tell me ."
" ."
The two of them were talking to each other, the candlelight flickering gently beside them, the orange-red flame looking bright and warm.
And at this moment, Yang Liushi was standing in the darkness not far outside the house, staring blankly at the bright window, the hem of her skirt swaying slightly in the cold wind.
She had been standing here for a long time, but she didn't understand why she had come.
The Young Master and Qin'er should be very happy now .
It's just a pity that this kind of happiness will never belong to her .
Forcing back the tears in her eyes, she clenched the hem of her clothes tightly.
Yang Liushi didn't know what kind of mood she was in now, or what kind of mood she should be in.
She wanted to be happy for Liang Qin, but no matter what, she couldn't be happy in her heart.
So, she just stood there silently, until the window went from bright to dark, and the surroundings became completely quiet.
Are they asleep?
Slowly taking a step back, Yang Liushi lowered her head a little lonely, and turned around to leave.
However, at this moment, there was suddenly a very slight sound of a door opening and closing behind her.
" ."
Turning her head suddenly, Yang Liushi saw Wei Changtian sneaking out of the house.
However, Wei Changtian didn't see her, and after coming out, he jumped over the courtyard wall and headed north.
North, that is .
Yang Liushi suddenly widened her eyes, and then picked up her skirt and ran across the bluestone path in the night, ran through the rustling small bamboo forest, ran through the long corridor with lanterns hanging on it, until she stopped outside her own independent courtyard.
She stood blankly in the moonlight, looking at the man not far away who was knocking on her door again and again, and finally couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes any longer, and ran towards that figure regardless of everything.
"Plop!"
In the moonlight, two figures embraced each other.
At this time, silence is better than sound, and this embrace is better than thousands of words.
Floating light leaps like gold, and still shadows sink like jade.
A nine-part crescent moon can also illuminate people's reunion.
