Chapter 169: Consent
Seeing Qing Li, Gao Ying's emotions seemed to tremble, and he withdrew his sword for a moment before he gasped: "Why are you here?" ”
There was no emotion in those words, it was as cold as ice that would not melt for thousands of years, but it made Mrs. Gao, who had been watching from the sidelines, happy.
This is the first time Ah Ying has spoken since she returned......
She looked at Qing Li expectantly, and stepped forward to bless slightly, "The princess." ”
Qing Li hurriedly helped Mrs. Gao up, and said with a light smile: "Mrs. Gao doesn't have to be polite, can you let me talk to Ah Ying alone?" ”
"Okay, okay." Of course, Mrs. Gao agreed, she couldn't persuade this daughter, she only hoped that the princess could have a way.
Thinking so in her heart, Mrs. Gao hurriedly took a group of maids and servants to the courtyard, and only Qing Li and Gao Ying were left in the empty courtyard.
A gust of autumn wind blew and swept away the dead leaves all over the ground, and large poplar leaves fell with a bang, and soon piled up together.
Falling leaves, autumn sorrow, always sentimental.
Gao Ying stood there straight, his chest was still rising and falling, and the murderous killing spirit all over his body was constantly released, as if there was a kind of determination and ruthlessness that destroyed the world and the earth.
Qing Li walked over, and the slightly cool palm covered the hand where she held the sword, and the cold touch also surprised Qing Li.
Gao Ying didn't dodge, she didn't refuse, she just stood there silently like a clay statue, letting the man break her fingers little by little, revealing her palm, which had already been turned out and bloody.
Qing Li sighed, just pulled her aside and sat down, and gave her medicine again. Not a word was said during this period.
Gao Ying's emotions also slowly subsided in this silence, and she looked at Qing Li with a light pant, such a soft and elegant plain face. always reminds her of her gentle and virtuous eldest sister, but she will never see her again......
Gao Ying's eyes were a little sour, but he couldn't shed a single tear.
"What don't you ask me?" Gao Ying stared at her, her bloodshot eyes looked a little terrifying at first glance, but the sadness and despair hidden in them were very distressing.
Qing Li's bandaged hand paused. said lightly: "You've decided, haven't you?" ”
From the moment he saw her eyes, Qing Li knew.
Such a strong killing intent and ruthlessness. If she changes to any person, I'm afraid that she has already rushed out to get someone's head, and she can still practice swords here, not so much to vent. It's better to say. This is how she wants to stop her impulses.
After all, she is not alone, behind her, there is also a family, and Gao Fu, if she can't help but kill Lu Xueyu or Ling Qianmo, then the result is not that she dies alone. It's the whole family that was buried with her!
In the end, it is still the parents who gave birth to and raised, and Gao Ying has never been able to do this kind of thing.
Gao Ying's body trembled. Smiled bitterly: "You always see everyone so thoroughly......"
knotted beautifully, but Qing Li shook his head, "You're wrong, I can't see through many people, it's just that you can make people see through at a glance, and it's just right, I just believe in you." ”
Ah Ying is not a person with a complicated mind, it is not difficult to guess her heart, but if she is asked to guess the old demon of Montenegro like Ling Chu Ling Qianmo, it will undoubtedly be difficult.
That sentence of trust made Gao Ying's back stiffen instantly, she was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Qing Li's eyes, but with apology and uneasiness, as if she was fighting between heaven and man in her head, it seemed to be strong, but it was more awkward and fragile than anyone else.
After hesitating for a long time, Gao Ying slowly spat out, "What if, I have something to lie to you?" ”
She stared into Qing Li's eyes, for fear of seeing the disappointment she didn't want to see.
She doesn't have many friends, and she doesn't want to lose Qingli.
Qing Li was suffocated, and when she saw her cautious face again, she smiled dumbly for a moment, "Everyone has secrets, since you chose to lie to me, there is naturally a reason, maybe it is still difficult to hide, I just need to believe, you won't harm me." ”
After a pause, she looked up and down again, and said with a smile: "I don't think you should hurt me......
"Of course not!" Gao Ying hurriedly replied.
Qing Li's thoughtfulness really touched her very much, and she was in a dead silence all day today, and she was tumbling violently because of her words.
She bit her lower lip and said slowly, "Thank you." ”
Qing Li smiled, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to her, looking at her deeply with calm and clear eyes, no pity, no sympathy, only a faint encouragement.
"What are you going to do?" Qing Li asked.
She thought, Gao Ying was moved to kill, but Lu Xueyu was better, such as Ling Qianmo's identity, no matter if he was killed or assassinated, the final result would be very unfavorable.
It is necessary to bring them down, but also not to drag down the family, unless you use the most righteous reasons and rely on the top imperial power, otherwise, everything is in vain.
Gao Ying took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, only then did he feel that his chest that was almost burning felt better, and he went to pour two more cups and drank them.
Her dark eyes were deep and vast, and she held the celadon teacup tightly in her hand, and said, "I agreed to the proposal of the Zhenguo General's Mansion to marry." ”
An unsurprising answer.
Qing Li frowned and asked, "What about the conditions?" ”
The Nangong family, who was divorced, asked to marry again, and with Gao Ying's pride, she would never think about it again anyway, not to mention that if she ate back grass, it would become everyone's laughing stock.
In fact, the Zhenguo General's Mansion should have stopped asking for marriage, but this family affair was withdrawn without the knowledge of the general, and the third son of the Nangong family, who is also the major general Nangong Yue, and the general's wife privately decided to push away Gao Ying's family affair that he had formed since childhood, and the general also became angry for this.
General Nangong and Master Gao are old friends, and this incident can be regarded as breaking the two families, and the impact is very widespread.
At the beginning, the general's wife was just a pure pity for her youngest son, and she didn't want her to marry a sick wife, but she really didn't expect that Gao Ying's sleepiness was pretended at all! So in order to make up for it, I had to put it forward again, hoping to form a mandarin alliance.
Gao Daren never let go of this marriage, and Gao Ying's wishes let her choose, but in the end, she still chose her old enemy.
This decision would not have been so easy to make. It's a pity that Gao Meng's death completely angered her, and Gao Ying has already made up her mind to make Ling Qianmo's life worse than death. The simplest thing is nothing more than to let the throne he most longs for completely out of his control.
Ling Chu's body in the past two years has looked healthy, but in fact, it is not as good as before, and because the beautiful people entered the palace a few months ago, they have been indulging in lust for a long time, which makes his body lose a lot, but he doesn't know moderation.
Although Qing Li had never diagnosed Ling's pulse for the first time. But just from the vanity on his face and the slowness of his feet, you can guess a little about his recent situation.
After all, he is almost fifty people, and compared with the delicate women who are not yet ten years old, Ling Chu's energy will never be too good. And the charm of the beautiful woman revealed up and down, you can imagine how much temptation Ling Chu is, he has already been involuntarily.
Even if there were imperial doctors to check and all kinds of precious medicinal materials to warm up, Ling Chu would slowly only have an empty shelf left. Even his physical condition would not be much better than Ling Rui's.
People close to him found out about the situation. But none of them were told, it was nothing more than the hands and feet of the crown prince and the third prince.
For them, planning is long enough, and there is only a moment left for the emperor's body to collapse, so the preparation is becoming more and more intense.
In Kyoto, the powerful and powerful who controlled the lifeblood of the entire imperial city were the three provinces, six departments, nine divisions and twelve guards.
Ling Qianyu and Ling Qianmo have been fighting each other for many years. It is precisely the leaders of these departments who want to win over.
The establishment of a new regime requires a revolution, in it. The most critical role is not played by civil ministers, but by military generals.
Among all the generals, the most powerful are none other than three, none other than Nangong Yi, the general of Zhenguo and the secretary of the military department, Ling Yichen, the god of war in ink painting, and Wang Xun, the guard general who has been stationed in the East China Sea all year round.
Since Wang Wei is not in Kyoto all the year round, he does not have much impact on the whole, and Ling Yichen secretly supports the prince. Therefore, what Ling Qianmo and Ling Qianyu need to fight for most is the support of General Nangong.
The conditions put forward by Gao Ying must also be related to this.
"I don't want anything, I just ask that the general won't stand on Ling Qianmo's side!" Gao Ying gritted his teeth and said.
She knew that it was really difficult for a neutral general who purely supported the imperial power to support the crown prince, but at least, he couldn't help Ling Qianmo!
"The relationship between the general and his father has been torn apart, and he has been trying to make up for it, and the conditions I put forward are not harsh, they are just easy for him, and he has no reason not to agree." Gao Ying's voice became more and more faint, as if the life-time events mentioned had nothing to do with her.
Qing Li frowned, just looking at her, "Is it worth it?" That's your marriage, and you made such a hasty decision? What if Nangong Yue is not your lover? Don't you care? ”
"I can't do it anymore! My sister is dead! My only sister-in-law! The best person in the world for me, she's dead! ”
Gao Ying suddenly roared angrily, squatted down and hugged his head, his eyes blood-red.
She clutched at her hair, as if it wasn't her own, and she was going to tear it off with her scalp.
"If I hadn't returned to the house last night, but stayed at my eldest sister's, maybe, it would have been different......" she muttered to herself in distraction, and the next moment she grabbed the soft sword that had already been put down on the side and swung it, and in the flash of silver light, there were large fallen leaves flying down, and only the resolute black shadow could be seen in the pale yellow eyes.
This time, Gao Ying's sword dance didn't last long, and she quickly stopped, her hands facing away from Qing Li.
"Lai, I know you're dealing with him too. On the way to Chuzhou that time, the killers of the Night Fort came to assassinate you, it was sent by Ling Qianmo, right? ”
Qing Li heard her voice sound, and he couldn't see his expression, but he could also feel the blood and hatred and killing intent boiling all over her body.
"Yes." She replied.
"Hehe......" Gao Ying smiled, laughing so much that his shoulders were trembling, but the laughter couldn't hear any hearty pleasure.
It's like an outlaw who gambles with his life, grabbing the last bargaining chip, in addition to unparalleled faith, more than that, is a terrifying explosive potential, as if he can bring people to death in the next moment.
She chuckled and said, "It's nice we're standing together......"
Qing Li didn't persuade Gao Ying too much.
She knew that now Gao Ying's eyes were full of hatred and killing, and the successive stimuli made the violent factor in her body continue to be active, maybe only by letting her slash that person with blood, this agitation would gradually fade.
Qing Li couldn't say whether this was good or bad, but at least she gave Gao Ying a goal to look forward to, and she could no longer close herself off like before, which was already a great progress.
patting Gao Ying's shoulder, Qing Li said, "Don't worry, you're not alone." ”
After Qing Li said this, he left, but Gao Ying's figure was standing and motionless.
Of course, Qing Li, who had his back to her, would not see that on his face, which had been as cold as frost all day long, there was already an extremely faint smile. (To be continued......)
