Meng Jingke was very helpless about his ups and downs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
When did it become so useless.
He took a deep breath and handed the bracelet back to Qin E: "That day in the garden, I saw that you only wore a beaded flower on your head, and I will send you some better ones another day." β
Qin E sensitively captured the changes in his mood, and seemed to be a little distant all of a sudden, feeling a little apprehensive. But she has a strong nature and doesn't want to show timidity, so she pretends to smile lightly: "You give it to me, what should I explain to my family?"
She put the bracelet back on and said with a smile: "This one is very good, four thousand taels, very valuable." β
Meng Jingke was stunned for a moment, thinking that she had put the four thousand taels of silver tickets she gave in it, and couldn't help laughing.
The embarrassment and ambiguity in the room dissipated without a trace, Meng Jingke breathed a sigh of relief, but there was some aftertaste and nostalgia.
"Is your body recovering? Does the wound still hurt? Is it the habit of living in King Chun's mansion?"
Qin E's heart was warm when he asked, and the smile on her face was as bright as a peach blossom in March: "Take medicine on time every day, it's fine." The wound also grew well. King Chun's Mansion is very luxurious, and there is nothing wrong with food, clothing, housing and transportation. It's just that I'm worried about Qin Xuan and Qin Yan and want to go back as soon as possible. β
Meng Jingke said: "Since you want to go back, just tell the county lord, if you save her, she won't embarrass you." β
Qin E thought about it, nodded and said, "I'll go talk to her tomorrow." β
The two of them had a good discussion, which gave Meng Jingke a feeling of being quiet and good.
He quickly took a deep breath to calm his breath and not let himself be cranky.
I heard Qin E ask again: "Master Meng, thank you for saving me that day, if you hadn't appeared in time, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to sit here properly." Speaking of which, every time I am in danger, you help me get out of trouble, and I really don't know how to thank you. β
Meng Jingke smiled and said, "You don't need to be polite with me, but don't smash the snake with a stone next time." β
Qin E defended in a low voice: "I've smashed it before, it's all good, who would have thought that this time it would be like this." Seeing Meng Jingke's smile getting bigger and bigger, his face turned red, and he changed the topic: "Why did you come to the garden of King Chun's Mansion that day?"
Meng Jingke looked at Qin E, only to see that her eyes were shy, shy and timid, and she was so beautiful that people didn't dare to look at her directly.
He breathed sluggishly, and suddenly thought that such a good appearance would cause trouble if he didn't say or do anything. Can a son-in-law like Wei Changqing, who is ignorant of the world, take care of her?
The thought came to him, and he pressed it again: "I have something to tell you, so I followed you to the garden." β
Qin E lowered her eyes: "Lord Meng wants to ask me about the third prince?"
Meng Jingke nodded, seeing that the pink on her cheeks faded, and her little face was a little pale.
Qin E said: "Whatever Master Meng wants to ask, just ask, I will tell you what I can say." β
If you can't say it, you just won't say it?
Meng Jingke remembered that he was on the mountain at that time, and he asked Qin E to go first, but Qin E refused to leave.
He is not big, but his temper is very stubborn.
Thinking of the past, Meng Jingke smiled: "Since you have something difficult to say, I won't ask more, you don't have to be embarrassed." β
Qin E was surprised: "You don't doubt me anymore?"
Meng Jingke said: "When did I doubt you?"
"You keep asking me how I know the news, and if it has something to do with my father, don't you suspect that I have something to do with the third prince?"
"I do have suspicions about Lord Qin. Meng Jingke said: "I know your identity, and it is impossible for me to have anything to do with the three princes." You know this, and you must have listened to other people. But you are a boudoir woman, you don't go out of the door, where can you hear it? I naturally first suspect Lord Qin, who has the closest relationship with you and is most likely to leak out the news. β
"But to put it bluntly, with my understanding of Lord Qin, he wouldn't dare to do this kind of disobedience. β
"No matter where you hear the news, if you know such a secret, the other party will not let you go. I ask you again and again, just because I am in a hurry to find this person, otherwise I really don't feel at ease. β
Qin E's eyes widened: "So you sent someone to escort me that day?"
"Otherwise, what do you think is the reason? Send someone to spy on you?" Meng Jingke's eyes showed warmth, and he said softly: "You risked the danger to remind me, saved me from danger, and saved many lives. I went to the garden to look for you that day just to thank you in person. β
It turned out to be like this.
A kind of sweetness burst out from the bottom of her heart, Qin E blushed and said, "I thought of you wrongly." β
I always thought you were suspicious of me, and I was sad about it, but in fact I doubted your trust in me.
Untying the knot, Qin E's whole person became relaxed and talked a lot.
"Master Meng, I don't have a problem. β
Meng Jingke said: "What's the matter, you say." β
"Do you know who released such a poisonous snake in King Chun's mansion?"
Meng Jingke asked her rhetorically: "Why do you say that?"
Qin E frowned and said: "When I was a child, I liked to read all kinds of local chronicles and medical scriptures, and I once saw a poisonous snake called Qiinzi. I heard the county lord describe that the snake that bit me had a figure eight mark on its head and two polka dots on its body, which was exactly seven inches. Although this venomous snake is widely distributed and can be seen all over the country, it is very rare in the capital, let alone appear in the crowded Chunwang Mansion. This incident is obviously man-made. β
"But I can't figure it out, if you want to harm anyone, and the snake doesn't recognize people, catch whoever bites whom, it's better to have other ways to be safer, what's the use of putting such a snake in the house?"
"I didn't expect you to know seven inches. Meng Jingke Mu Lu admired: "Your analysis is correct, this matter is indeed unusual." At first, I thought that this matter was aimed at you, you exposed the affairs of the third prince, and were retaliated against by his remnants, so you suffered this misfortune. β
But then I reversed that idea. As you said, this thing doesn't recognize people, and if someone wants to kill you, it can be done in a simpler and more effective way. β
"Since it's not aimed at you, it's just for King Chun's mansion. That day was Princess Chun's birthday, and the guests in the palace were like clouds, and the dignitaries and dignitaries did not know how many. Although the road is remote, it is the only way for the ladies to change their clothes. No matter which female dependents are bitten, it is a sensational thing in the capital. β
"The murderer's purpose should be to create such a sensation and push Chunwangfu to the forefront of public opinion. β
Qin E couldn't help but say: "King Chun's Mansion is in the heart of the emperor, and his position has always been clear, wouldn't it be ...... to push him to the cusp?"
Qin E stopped talking and glanced at Meng Jingke.
Meng Jingke's eyes were deep, bursting with surprise and joy. He didn't expect Qin E to think of so much, he just mentioned it slightly, and he thought of the court dispute.
Such a woman is someone else's fiancΓ©e.
Meng Jingke only felt a mess of turbid gas rampaging through his chest. (To be continued.) )
