Chapter 352: Killing Someone?
The person on the bed slept more deeply, and I moved the hand that was being held by the little boy of the Ji family, and then gently pushed and took out my hand in an instant. After pulling the quilt for him and covering it tightly, I walked out lightly.
The moment I closed the cabins, I was relieved.
"Whew-I don't know what Zhang Yifu wants. "I leaned against the railing and looked out at the blue sea, the waves were stirred up by the wind, and there was a splash of water. Although the autumn sun is good, the sea breeze is cold.
It's already the last few days of late autumn, and it's about to be winter, so I don't know if I can get the secret text back to Wolong Valley before the snow falls.
The most difficult thing to do at the moment is actually Zhang Yifu, as long as he is still on the painting boat, he will not be able to send the news to the emperor. But what if I just tied him to the boat and hired someone to release him when we were gone?
Still is...... Kill people directly?
Uh- I shuddered at my own thoughts. Once upon a time, I was so ruthless? No, there must be another way...... For example, tie him up first, take him with you, and when the drunken soul incense comes out, you will immediately induce him to forget about the dragon egg?
"Miss Lu, what are you thinking here?"
The sudden sound on my side almost scared me into the water, I stiffened my neck and turned my head, and pulled out a smile that I thought was natural: "Master Zhang, you are seriously injured and don't want to rest, why did you come here to blow the wind?"
"Beware of serious injuries and wind chills, there is no help!" I subconsciously said. Before the words fell, I twitched the corners of my mouth first.
Zhang Yifu was dressed very casually today, wearing a light gray robe, and there was no jade belt around his waist, but instead of satin embroidered with moire of the same color. Half of the green silk was collected, tied behind her head with a silver headband, and the rest was left to her shoulders and back like flowing water.
The starry and moon-like face is quite like Feng Qingyi's Zhilan jade tree at the beginning, and the ministers of their Lu State are like this?
Well, not really. The beautiful prime minister named Meng Wangwu is a femme fatale, on the surface, the jade tree is so beautiful that the bright moon is not as good as it, but in fact he is the most difficult person to deal with.
I once suspected that the person who was looking around for me was him, Prime Minister Meng Dacheng.
Zhang Yifu didn't mind my ridicule, and looked at the sea with a smile as if the prime minister could hold the boat in his belly: "The official's body is very tough, and blowing this wind is not in the way." Thank you, Miss Lu, for your concern. ”
I laughed, yes, I do care about him, little lady. It's just that it's very different from the "concern" in his mouth.
"Miss Lu, this official can see that you are not an ordinary girl. What kind of conditions do you need to give up what you have in your hand to this official?" he turned and leaned his back against the railing, tilting his face to look at me.
I also turned my head to look at him, but I just blinked my eyes and pretended to be stupid: "The folk girl doesn't know what Master Zhang is talking about." ”
"You know that. He stared more and more closely, "Thirty years ago, the dragon egg was stolen. Look at your age, you're only eighteen or nineteen years old, and you're not a dragon egg thief. The clue we found was that the dragon egg was obtained by the owner of the Golden Soul Inn on the floating island. No matter how it got into your hands, the dragon egg must be brought back to the palace. ”
I raised my eyebrows: "Yes, Lord Zhang is on the emperor's orders." The emperor's order did not dare to disobey. "But, little girl, I don't want to hand it over to you.
"Miss Lu is compassionate, this official has the emperor's order, and she doesn't dare to disobey. To tell the truth, the official's father has been imprisoned by the emperor for failing to investigate the theft of dragon eggs. This time, I had to go to the floating island alone regardless of life and death, and I was really cornered. Zhang Yifu's face suddenly straightened.
He straightened his sleeves and stood respectfully in front of me, his hands folded in his eyebrows, and he leaned over and bent his head lower than his waist.
I looked at him and froze. Such a big gift, if you don't meet your own teacher or someone you admire, you won't use it, although it's different from Wolong Valley, but I'm not here for a day or two, so I naturally know it well.
Zhang Yifu is an official of the imperial court, and he has the emperor's order, so it stands to reason that even if he robs me or directly issues an order to arrest me, it is not strange.
But he actually made such a big gift to me! Little lady I thought of thousands of possibilities, but I never thought that he would be like this. Regardless of whether it was salute first and then soldier, I was indeed stunned on the spot, and I couldn't react at all for a while.
He seemed to expect that I would not be able to react for a while, and he seemed to ignore what I would think of him, a court official who was willing to bend down and give such a great gift to the ordinary people.
Zhang Yifu continued: "The emperor's destiny is cloudy, if I want to rescue my father, I must retrieve the dragon egg before the emperor orders the execution. Now, several years have passed, and not only my father, but even my younger brother, who is a fellow mother, has been detained for theft and imprisoned for no reason......"
"Miss Lu, what you have in your hand is not just a dragon egg, but a life talisman of my Zhang family. As long as you can give me the dragon egg, no matter what conditions you propose, I will do my best to achieve it! Even if it is for me as a person, or for my life, I will never complain!"
I looked at Zhang Yifu's green silk pouring down like water for a long time, and my heart was mixed.
"Lord Zhang, please get up quickly. Such a big gift, the folk girl can't afford it. I stretched out my hand to help him, but he was still indifferent, so I had to really hold his arm and try to pull him up, but he just stubbornly saluted, and there was a great tendency to "not get up if you don't agree".
I can see that the Emperor of Lu is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp, but I don't know that he still uses this means to force people's hobbies.
"Master Zhang, why are you doing this?" I held his arm and stalemate with him, "The Elder Dragon Egg is actually spiritual, even if you bring it back, it will disappear as well." ”
Ordinary dragon eggs naturally don't, but unfortunately the dragon eggs in my hands have become small dragons. It's strange that you can't run.
"Miss Lu, I don't care about what will happen in the future. I just want to rescue my father and brother as soon as possible, my father is 70 years old this year, and as the eldest son, I really can't bear to see him suffer in this old prison. No matter what happens to the dragon egg in the future, I just know that if I can bring it back, I can save my family's life!"
Zhang Yifu was finally willing to raise his head, but he was still unwilling to get up.
I scratched my hair, what could I do? Even if I changed my mind now and tried to steal the dragon eggs from him, it wouldn't be possible. The fox has come out of its shell, and the eggshell has long been broken in half, where is there anything left......
Perhaps, even if it is broken in half, there is a way to give the dragon egg to Zhang Yifu.
"Master Zhang, you don't have to be so polite. Since it's used to save lives, the folk girl will give it to you. The folk girl is not a stubborn person. I replied cheerfully, and he straightened up with my support.
