Chapter 37: The Secret of the Brass Ring

"Why mention him?" Ling Caiwei hugged her bent knees, feeling the scorching heat of the approaching flames. The name Qin Wuya seems to be a memory of his previous life. When the Ling family was full of beheadings, she understood that she was destined to have no chance with him in this life. Now, when I hear others mention his name, I think of the scenes we used to be together, and every picture is a whip that whips her heart.

Nan Ronglie patted the soil in his hand, looked at her helplessly and smiled: "It's you who have been mentioning him, otherwise how would I know there is such a person." "Even when you are unconscious, you call his name, what do you have to do to clear him out of your heart.

"I, I, when did I mention it. Ling Caiwei muttered quietly, she wasn't sure if she had inadvertently leaked her thoughts.

"He's important to you?" he became more jealous and curious.

Ling Caiwei was stunned for a moment before smiling sadly: "If fate comes, it goes, when it gathers, it disperses, when it arises, when it falls, it dies." ”

"Are you using the Buddha's words to coax me, or are you lying to yourself?"

"If a person can lie to himself for the rest of his life, it is also a kind of happiness. Ling Caiwei tilted her head to her knees, and Nan Ronglie saw the sparks beating in her eyes lifeless.

He was a little annoyed, and he felt that he had nowhere to vent. The silence between each other was like a wooden stick stretched into the sea of fire, and the "crackling" sound of the firewood was very harsh to hear.

Nam Rongyeol took out something from his arms and broke the silence: "Reach out your hand." ”

"What for?" Ling Caiwei raised her head and looked at him vigilantly.

"Gifts. He snatched her hand and shoved it into her hand. "See if you like it?"

Ling Caiwei felt that the things in her hand were still carrying his body temperature, so she spread out her palms, staring stupidly, tears rolling down drop by drop.

Teardrops rolled into the fire, making a faint "poof" sound that evaporated instantly. Nan Ronglie saw her crying silently, and handed her a silk casually.

"Rub. I hate women crying the most. ”

Ling Caiwei came back to her senses at this time, and her voice was sad: "Where did you find it?"

"If you don't cry, I'll tell you again. He couldn't see a woman crying. In the past, the queen mother was often sad because of her father's neglect. And he took his silk and wiped her tears. However, the queen mother's tears were always wiped away, and he felt sorry for her, but there was nothing he could do. At that time, he swore that if he grew up, he would marry the one he liked, and he would never let her cry for the rest of his life.

Ling Caiwei took the handkerchief in his hand and hurriedly wiped away her tears: "You can tell me." ”

"I found it at a pawnshop. It was engraved with the logo of your Ling family, and I thought it was strange that I traced it all the way, and found that it was Gan Zhong's servant who came to be this object. ”

"Gan Zhong?" Ling Caiwei heard familiar, and then remembered that it was Yao Yongsheng's old acquaintance. Yao Yongsheng once asked him to operate the princess to meet the Southern Emperor, and for this reason, he also poisoned the Gan family.

Nan Ronglie nodded: "It's the third-grade official Dali Siqing." This person was recommended by Yuan Leyao's cousin, General Sima Yuliang. ”

In other words, it may be related to Nanhou. Ling Caiwei guessed.

"The specifics need to be further verified. This is your father's relic, you can keep it. ”

Ling Caiwei clenched the copper ring in her hand tightly: "Thank you." This gift is so precious. Remembering that her father once taught her to draw with his hand wearing a copper ring, tears couldn't stop rolling down.

"However, this thing of my father never leaves her body, how can it be left in the southern country?" Thinking of her father's head in a different place, but his relics were in a foreign country, her heart felt as if someone had torn it from the inside, and she could only hold herself tightly to relieve the trembling from within her body.

"Give me the brass ring. Nan Ronglie took it, and pressed something on the inner wall of the copper ring with his fingers, and the copper ring was divided into two, and the inside was hollow.

He handed it back to Ling Caiwei: "If you guessed correctly, there used to be something hidden in it, and now that it has been taken away, the copper ring will be discarded if it is useless." The workmanship of this copper ring can be said to be ingenious, and it can be regarded as a treasure. ”

Ling Caiwei saw the famous hall in the copper ring for the first time. No wonder his father never let her touch it. Once, while her father was sleeping, she wanted to take it off and play, but her father found out and lost her temper. not only slapped her palm, but also punished her for copying poems. From then on, she never dared to touch the brass ring again.

Nowadays, seeing things and thinking about people, how can the living be.

"My dad never mentioned the secret in the brass ring, and he didn't know what was hidden in it. Ling Caiwei closed the copper ring, wrapped it in silk and put it in her arms.

"Maybe if you find out what's inside, you'll find out the truth about your father's frame-up. Don't worry, I'll check it for you. You can definitely find it. ”

"Why help me?" Ling Caiwei heard his words, and there seemed to be a warm current flowing through her heart.

Nan Ronglie hesitated for a moment, and then smiled in disguise: "I am purely fulfilling the agreement." This king has always been true to his word and to his deeds. Don't overthink it. ”

Ling Caiwei suddenly felt that those warm currents froze, and her whole body was cold: "I don't seem to be able to help you." Nanhou does not seem to have any fear of defending the country. ”

Nan Ronglie laughed and said: "As long as you are still the princess of Weiguo, she doesn't dare to come openly, after all, if she wants to seize power, she also needs the support of Weiguo." Otherwise, half of the troops of the southern country plus the troops of the defense of the country will be combined inside and outside, and she will not be able to sit in a stable position. As long as you're there, you'll be able to check and balance her. But if she hurts you, Wei Guo will definitely not give up. So, she is now more difficult than anyone else. ”

Nan Ronglie didn't want Ling Caiwei to think that he was helping her. Say this so that she can accept his help with peace of mind. But Ling Caiwei's heart was empty after listening to these words, it turned out that what he valued was her princess status. What if she's not a princess? What if the real princess comes back? Will he still help her?

She despised herself in her heart. She had sworn not to pin her hopes on others, and now, he had only given her a glimmer of warmth, and she felt that it was a dependence, and wanted to get closer to keep warm. She couldn't indulge herself like that.

She sneered: "Thank you Prince for the reminder." I will keep my word. Assist the crown prince in obtaining the throne. Emperor Wei has already arranged for General Yao to send someone back to report on the recent events in the southern kingdom. I believe that Emperor Wei loves the princess so much that he will definitely send someone to exert pressure. When the time comes, the crown prince will be able to fight for your right to be the crown prince together with those loyal ministers. Then we're even. ”

Her words were like a basin of cold water poured on Nan Ronglie's head, and his face suddenly became gloomy: "You are always calculating and shrewd. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare. has an appointment, and I can't help but think about it for the prince. Ling Caiwei politely and detached her fists at him.

Nan Ronglie endured and endured it so that he didn't throw her off the cliff. He brought her out tonight to make her happy, but who would have thought that the two of them would fight again.

The flames of the campfire in front of me faded. He stood up and walked to the edge of the cliff and persuaded himself: Forget it, she is already a stubborn temper, does the prince still care about her. Thinking of this, he put his finger to his lips and whistled in the distance.

Ling Caiwei didn't know what he meant, so she walked over and quipped: "Don't you think about jumping down, I won't save ......" Before the word "you" could be spoken, a dazzling light suddenly burst out of the dark sky, and exploded instantly with a loud bang.
