Chapter 18: The Heart Has No Belonging
And Nan Fengzhu just smiled faintly and didn't answer, Nankong didn't plan to continue to go around in circles with his father when he saw the situation, so he opened the door and asked, "Dad, what do you mean? If you have something to say, don't beat around the bush like this, this Jiangling City Order has always been placed here for you, and you haven't even worn it on your hand, and now you hand over the city order to me, and you still want me to wear it on your hand at any time, in case someone with a heart wants to take it, isn't it an easy thing?!"
But Nan Fengzhu still smiled lightly, "The jade I have here is very rare, but the jade bracelet of this city order is the most ordinary, think about it, ordinary people choose the best among a group of ordinary jade bracelets, but when faced with a bunch of the best jade bracelets, they suddenly found the most ordinary jade bracelet, what will I do?"
Nankong was suddenly startled when he heard this, and seemed to understand the truth of this sentence, he thought about it carefully, and it was not unreasonable for what his father said, the jade in his father's study was indeed excellent jade, and this most ordinary jade bracelet was placed here, but it became a rare thing.
"Did Dad wear this bracelet on his hand before?" Nan Kongqian slowly raised his eyes and looked at Nan Fengzhu and asked.
"Of course!"
"Then why didn't you wear it later?"
"Because of your mother...... Passed away. Nan Fengzhu said this lightly, his tone was as calm as water, Nankong suddenly raised his eyes to look at him when he heard this, but he saw him smiling lightly at himself, as if nothing had happened.
Nankong Qian only felt a sour feeling in his heart, everything in his memory seemed to be separated by a thin veil, blurred and invisible, that face, when he was very young, disappeared in his life, but now, but suddenly resurfaced in his mind, amiable, doting on him.
He always remembered that his mother always called him 'Qian'er', and his father used to call him 'stinky boy', but after his mother passed away, his father actually ...... I also began to call him 'Qian'er'.
"If my mother knew that I was going to get married, she would be very happy. Nan Kongqian asked this question unconsciously, Nan Fengzhu was stunned when he heard this, and a moment of trance flashed in his eyes, as if he had seen something, and after a while, he smiled slightly, "Yes, this kid is so good, your mother will definitely like it." ”
After saying that, Nankong Qian also slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
After noon, Nankong Qian came to Ji Wan'er's room with the pair of jade bracelets, he stood at the door of her room, unconsciously stopped again, stunned in place, he slowly took out the Lance jade bracelet, put it in his hand and looked back and forth, and suddenly remembered his mother, remembered the time he used to be with his father and mother.
But when he stood motionless, Xiang Yan suddenly opened the door, and behind him was Ji Wan'er, who was about to go out, Nan Kongqian heard the sound of the door being opened, and immediately hid the jade bracelet behind him, and Xiang Yan opened the door and saw Nan Kongqian standing outside, and he was also surprised, "Young City Lord, why are you here!?"
After that, Ji Wan'er also walked out, and when she saw Nankong Qian standing there, she immediately knew that he must have something to say to herself, so she ordered Xiang Yan, "You go down first." With that, Xiang Yan left first, leaving only Nankong Qian and Ji Wan'er.
"Are you going out?" Nankong asked when he saw Xiang Yan leaving.
"Well, I want to add something from my daughter's house. Ji Wan'er said truthfully, "You came to me at this time, is there something wrong?"
"Oh, there's something I want to give you. Nankong said lightly, and while taking out the jade bracelet, he explained a little embarrassedly, "This used to be the jade bracelet that my mother wore, and it was a pair, so I want to give you this one." ”
Nankong said lightly, and handed the beautiful jade to Ji Wan'er, Ji Guan'er was a little distracted when he heard this, and was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the jade bracelet, took it carefully, and looked at it carefully in his hand, "This jade is crystal clear and slightly blue, which is a little different from what I have seen in the past." ”
"This is specially made for my mother by my father, and it is the rarest Lance jade that is the only one in the bleak bone mountain of Southern Chu. ”
"Really!?" Ji Wan'er's eyes widened in surprise, "I heard that the number of Lance jade in that bleak bone mountain is very small, and it is difficult to find, but I didn't expect that this jade bracelet was actually made of Lance jade." ”
"That's right, that's precious!" Nan Kong said in response.
"Since this is a jade bracelet that your father specially made for your mother with Lance Meiyu, then I can't ask for it. Ji Wan'er said, then stuffed the jade bracelet back into Nankong Qian's hand, he was stunned for a moment, and then spoke, "This is...... ...... for you"
"But this is your father and your mother's things, and it is not appropriate for me to give them. ”
"My father's one is already in my hands, and my father said, this thing is a pair, since it is a pair, then I wear it, I can't put the other one there, since I decided to marry you, then this jade bracelet is not given to you, who else can I give it?"
Before the words fell, Ji Wan'er lowered his head shyly, pursed his lips and smiled, Nankong Qian immediately put the bracelet in her hand again, "You just take it, anyway, it's a pair, if you don't bring it, then it's so lonely and pitiful." Ji Wan'er couldn't help but smile, then nodded, and put the jade bracelet on his hand, "Since that's the case, then I'll accept it, thank you." ”
"You're welcome, then...... I'm leaving?" Nan Kong Qian cautiously tested, Ji Wan'er nodded 'um', Nan Kong Qian suddenly turned to leave, looking relieved, and Ji Wan'er looked at his figure, and lowered his head to look at the Lance jade bracelet carefully, thinking of what Nan Kong Qian said, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, full of smiles.
After that, the news that Nan Kongqian was going to marry a wife soon spread all over Jiangling City, and Nan Fengzhu was also busy writing invitations by hand for Gu Qing to send them to friends from all sides, everyone knew that the person Nankong Qian was going to marry was the daughter of the city lord of Beiban Zaitao City, and they couldn't help but sigh, this is simply a good match, a natural pair!
The people in Dongchen all know about it, and naturally, the people in the Annihilation Palace also know about it.
"I didn't expect this Nankong Qian to marry a wife! And he married the daughter of the lord of the Northern Barbarian Zaikong City, Ji Wan'er. Bai Ningxi and the three Dharma protectors stayed in the stone cave in the valley, Qin Mulan shook his head incredulously, while Dugu Hanqiu turned his head to look at Bai Ningxi, he asked, "Palace Master, I have already inquired, I heard that Nankong Qian and Ji Wan'er are married on the sixth day of the leap month, when are we going to do it and release the demon seed in Jiangling City?"
Before the words fell, Qian Fanmeng and Qin Mulan also turned their heads to look at Bai Ningxi one by one.
"When they get married, there will be many people who come to watch the ceremony and drink, and there are many decent disciples among them, if we release the demon seed, it is very likely to attract their attention, and when the time comes, we may invite death. Bai Ningxi couldn't help frowning.
"It's probably more than a month before they get married, if you want to release the demon seed, now is the best time, now the snow is continuous, the cold wind is cold, and the palace master can also give full play to the effect of the cold heart chain. Dugu Hanqiu suggested to Bai Ningxi.
"But what if the demon seed is released now and those decent disciples are lured over? These decent disciples are the most nosy!" Qin Mulan also opened his mouth to have other ideas.
"Not necessarily! I think that if the people of Gangneung City are accused by us, with the temperament of Nan Fengzhu's old guy, he will definitely not let this matter be known to others, he has crossed his body, his life is short, and Nan Kongqian has not officially held the succession ceremony and became the lord of Gangneung City, if he lets others know about the situation of Gangneung City at this time, won't he give those who are plotting bad things an opportunity to take advantage of?"
That's what it says. Qin Mulan nodded a little approvingly, but then he said: "But if you wait until Nankong Qian gets married before making a move, it is more appropriate, think about it carefully, after he gets married, those people will naturally leave Jiangling City and will not come back, this is if he controls the people of Jiangling City, maybe he can take advantage of Nan Fengzhu's weakness and Nankong Qian has not succeeded to the position of city lord to wipe them out, control Nankong Qian, and get the Dusheng Mirror!"
"By that time, Ji Wan'er has already married Nankong Qian, if Jiangling City is in trouble, do you think Beiban Zaikong City will stand by? Do you think that Nan Fengzhu will not ask Old Man Ji for help? That is his rightful in-laws!"
“......”
Qin Mulan and Dugu Hanqiu have been arguing endlessly, while Qianfanmeng is standing quietly aside, his eyes are all focused on Bai Ningxi's back, Bai Ningxi is also standing quietly in place, standing with his hands behind his back, very mysterious and weird, unpredictable.
In the end, Dugu Hanqiu and Qin Mulan argued there for a long time without coming to a result, Dugu Hanqiu simply closed his mouth, stopped arguing with Qin Mulan, turned to Bai Ningxi, and replied loudly: "Palace Master, Qin Mulan and I can't make up our minds, I don't know what the Palace Master has in mind?"
Bai Ningxi's hands trembled slightly when she heard this, and then she slowly turned around and said word by word: "I heard before that the relationship between the Nan family and the Qilin Gate has always been good, once something happens to the Nan family, the Qilin Gate will definitely not stand idly by, since they are so nosy, then we will let them be nosy." ”
Bai Ningxi's gaze was fixed in the distance, and she kept looking ahead between words, her eyes were empty and indifferent, and her tone was as plain as water, as if she was saying something that had nothing to do with herself, but anyone could feel the indifference and ruthlessness in Bai Ningxi's heart at this time.
"What does the palace master mean that we will do it before we become relatives in the southern sky?"
"Isn't there still a month or so to go, this is enough time for Nan Fengzhu to deliver the news to Beiban and those disciples of Edgeworth. Bai Ningxi still put her hands behind her back, she slowly raised her head, looking ahead, her eyes were empty, and there was nothing.
