Chapter 140: Scrap
Once this realization was formed, Duan Yufeng's originally flat eyebrows wrinkled suddenly.
The girl who is as dazzling as glass, the person who is always alive and dazzling his eyes, is so simple that her brain is tendoned, but she is so stubborn that she can't do more......
At this moment, he is weak and pale in the corner of the palace, and he has to suffer from the cold eyes of others from time to time......
That empty feeling hit again, maybe I had experienced it from time to time before, but this time it was so intense, even with a faint dull pain.
His complexion was not good, either......
Qing Li saw his reaction in his eyes, and suddenly felt that in fact, Si Er's persistence was not meaningless.
Duan Yufeng has his persistence and principles, but he can't stand it, he is a person of flesh and blood and feelings.
Even though he grew up wearing gold and silver with a golden spoon in his mouth, and his life was materially superior, in that big family with many heirs, how could he not be cautious everywhere and always cautious?
His heart, in fact, is also lonely and empty.
The appearance of Si Er may be that ray of sunshine.
Her splendor can influence others, and if this fox is hard-hearted, it should always be a little touching.
The biggest problem between them is not the gap between their identities, but the contest between Duan Yufeng's principles and his own heart.
"You should know who you are doing this for. We are not here today to ask you to do something, not to say this, not to hold grievances for her, but just to pity Sier's efforts, and this qiē, you should have the right to know......"
Duan Yufeng did not speak. Qing Li didn't force him, shook the glass cup in her hand, and said lightly: "Si Er can't stay in the palace anymore." I will try my best to get her out of the palace, as for after that, whether you want to ignore her as before, or quickly cut through the mess, or accept her efforts, everything is yours. ”
After speaking, she pulled Ling Yichen to get up. "That's all I have to say, so I won't bother much."
At this time, he needs to think about it by himself.
Ling Yichen didn't say much. Walked to his side and put his big palm on Duan Yufeng's shoulder.
He didn't use as much force as he had just been discouraged, he just shook it firmly, just like the tacit understanding inherent between them, without saying a word, he already understood it.
Ling Yichen left with Qing Li. Leave the empty private room to Duan Yufeng alone.
Didn't get up to see it off. He looked at the glass cup in his hand in a daze.
The wine had been drunk, and Duan Yufeng took another glass, which was the broken bamboo green that Qing Li had mixed before.
The verdant liquor slid into the throat, and the bitter taste seemed to soak all the way to the heart.
He laughed to himself and muttered, "What a fool......"
……
As soon as Qing Li and Ling Yichen came out of Wanxiang Building, Ling Yichen's close secret guard Mu Cang appeared to report something, roughly because there was an abnormal movement on the front line, and asked him to return to the staff of the military department.
Xichuan struggled with his forces in the land of Shuobei. It's been a few months, although the imperial court sent Nangong Yue to guard it. Under the guise of inspection, but during this period of time, there was nothing to do, and there was no movement, which once made people feel strange, but now that there are changes, Ling Yichen is also very concerned.
"Li'er, I'll send you back first." Ling Yichen took Qing Li's hand and was about to take him into the carriage.
Qing Li shook his head, pointed to the jujube red horse brought by Mu Cang, and said with a smile: "Qingchen has been brought to you, you can go quickly, I am not a child, what else are you worried about?" She let go of his hand and said, "It just so happens that I also want to go back to Qingqing's house, grandpa has been back for a few days, and I have to go and see him." ”
"Grandpa is back?" Ling Yichen was taken aback, and said with annoyance: "I haven't visited him yet!" ”
Except for seeing Qing Luo once at the wedding banquet, Ling Yichen really didn't have much chance to intersect with him, but now he was busy going to the military department, and Qing Luo was uncertain, so he didn't know when he would have the next chance......
"Don't worry, grandpa will stay more time this time, are you afraid that you won't have a chance in the future? You just go first. Qing Li smiled faintly, he had already gotten into the carriage, pulled the curtain and waved to him, "I should go back later, if you end early, come to Qing's house to find me, this will be fine." ”
Ling Yichen was obviously satisfied with this method, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll try to come over as soon as possible." ”
Seeing Qing Li leave, Ling Yichen rode on his horse and went all the way to the military headquarters.
Qing's house is close to the outskirts of the city, and it will take more than an hour to pass.
Qing Li was traveling with Ling Yichen today, so she didn't let Shangziya and Wang Bo follow, although the coachman said that his martial arts foundation was good, but it was still not enough to protect her, this situation was indeed very dangerous.
The Qing family has a lot of money, which is very eye-catching, and she has always been the target of the underworld.
In the news that Xiyan gave her, the price of her life has now grown to two million taels, but unfortunately no one has come to take this business again.
The last time Night Castle sent someone to assassinate her, if it weren't for the fact that the crown prince also sent someone to secretly protect her, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
How could Qing Li swallow this loss?
She had already sent someone to sprinkle a packet of poison powder into the drinking water of the Nightcastle's lair.
This poison will not kill people, and ordinary people will have no effect on eating it, but for those who have martial arts cultivation, it can erode their internal force a little bit, and if they still can't solve it after a long time, they will become a waste person forever.
Night Castle is a killer organization, relying on this body of martial arts, if it is gone, then it is estimated that this organization will be disbanded.
At this point, they have only two ways to go, one is to find a capable person to cure the poison, and the other is to apologize to her and push this business.
The poison produced by the Qing family, how can ordinary people solve it? It's just that Shulian still has this ability, but how can they say that Shulian can be moved? Then there's no choice......
The corners of Qing Li's lips hooked up a triumphant arc.
The Night Castle Lord had already made a big deal to her a month ago, not only refusing her employer, but even promising to keep her safe in the future.
Even the capital of this underworld killer organization retreated, who else has the ability to harm Qing Li?
So, she can swagger out into the streets. Don't worry about who puts the cold arrow in the back.
It's just that although she got the promise of Nightcastle, she didn't ask the employer who offered the highest reward.
This is top secret. It is also a customary rule on their road, even if it is Xiyan, I am afraid that I can't find out who it is.
I only thought it was Ling Qianmo before, after all, this guy had a criminal record, and he had also invited the Night Fort to assassinate her, and also destroyed the goods she was escorting to Chuzhou.
But according to the current signs, it seems that the person who gave the two million taels of bounty has little to do with Ling Qianmo.
She really couldn't think of it for a while. Who has such a deep hatred with her, spending so much money, and has to take her life......
I remembered the situation when Shulian killed her that day. Qing Li only felt that it was getting more and more chaotic.
Perhaps, from her grandfather, she can get the answer she wants......
The owner of the Qing family is already few, and since Qing Li got married. The Qing family became more and more deserted. If it weren't for the housekeeper Uncle Xu who was still in good order, I am afraid that he would have become a pot of porridge long ago.
It was still a little emotional to set foot in this familiar place again.
There is a secret room under Qing Luo's study, which is actually an alchemy room, and some of the most precious medicines of the Qing family came out of this alchemy room.
Qing Li opened the door of the secret room and walked down the stairs.
The walls are inlaid with various night pearl lighting, and the temperature inside is much hotter than outside. There is also a smell of medicine.
"Stinky girl, the old man has been back for so many days. You just know it! ”
Before the stairs were at the end, there was a roar of rage.
Qing Li smiled slightly, but his feet were still unhurried, "Grandpa was tired from running around before, I don't want you to rest for a few more days!" Now you still blame me, it's so wronged! ”
There was another vigorous and powerful laughter inside, and when Qing Li got closer, he found that Qing Luo was wearing a loose white robe, sitting on the side of the gossip table in the hearth, twisting his beard and laughing.
The floor of the alchemy room is paved with blue and white stone, smooth and shiny, and it glows with a faint green light under the light of the night pearls in the house.
Qing Li learned from him to sit on the ground as well, smelling the fragrance emanating from the Dan furnace, and glanced at him sideways, "This pill has reached the end of the process, I'm afraid you've been busy for the past two days, if I come to look for you, I should be distracted." ”
"Yo, so, the old man still has to thank you?" Qing Luo smiled rarely, rolled up his sleeves, "Dead girl, Guan will play tricks on me!" As she spoke, she took advantage of her inattention, and flicked it at the door of her head, and said happily at the end: "Tsk, it feels really good!" Good as always! Haha......"
Qing Li covered his forehead and glared at him to show his displeasure.
From a small bullet to now, he is too old and disrespectful!
Glancing at a few bottles and cans on the ground, Qing Li took one casually and asked, "What is this?" ”
Qing Luo's face changed, and he wanted to grab it, but Qing Li opened the lid first.
"Eh, Li'er, they're all discarded, there's nothing to see, I'm about to lose them! Come on, I won't bother you! As he spoke, the hand stretched out again.
"Scrap?" Qing Li raised his eyebrows and smiled, seeing the light golden solid thing in the bottle, with the fishy smell of seawater, he smiled for a moment: "Since this thing is a discarded product, it is better for grandpa to give it to me!" I'm going to throw it away anyway, so I'm going to reluctantly recycle it! ”
She didn't hesitate to accept the jar, and was satisfied to see Qing Luo slap her thigh in annoyance.
Qing Luo couldn't wait to beat his chest, and kept wailing in his heart: "My best agar! ”
With so much agar, how could she fall in love with this bottle!
With a flick of his small eyes, Qing Luo gritted his teeth, picked up the few remaining jars on the ground, and discussed: "Hehe, good girl, how about I exchange these for the bottle you just had?" Five for one, it's a good deal! ”
"That's it......" Qing Li frowned for a while, took the bottles of agar and looked at them, "Well, these things are really not as good as the previous ones, since the bottles just now are all discarded, why don't I dispose of these bottles for you too!" ”
She accepted all five bottles of agar, and patted Qingluo's shoulder proudly, "Grandpa doesn't have to be polite to me!" It's just a gesture! (To be continued......)
