Chapter 303: Blood and Tears
Rong Xi and Leng Yixiu reached an agreement with her in the courtyard of the Seventh Princess, and in the courtyard of Leng Yiwei, the king of Qi, there was also no one to sleep.
Leng Yiwei returned to the study, his exhaustion made him not want to move, he closed his eyes, thinking about what happened today, those originally perfect plans actually turned into a net in the end, netting himself in the center, if it weren't for his sharpness, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to get out now.
He rubbed his eyebrows and took a deep breath, there seemed to be a faint aroma in the air, fresh and elegant, it was the smell of Yun Shan's body.
Leng Yiwei's mind came to Yun Shan's face before she died, that smile, he felt that there were too many things in this woman that he didn't know, for example, what she said, it was obvious that the person who made her worry was not herself.
What's going on? Leng Yiwei vaguely felt as if he had touched the edge of something, and those mysterious things stirred his nerves.
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door, Leng Yiwei immediately opened his eyes, and heard someone outside the door say, "Lord Wang, there is a guest here." ”
Leng Yiwei's instructions to his subordinates are that if it is an ordinary guest, he will report his name directly, whoever comes, and if it is an important person with a special status, he will say that there is a guest.
He sat up straight, exhaled, and said, "Please come in." ”
The footsteps outside the door sounded again and again, and soon, the door of the study was pushed open, and a person walked in, Leng Yiwei didn't need to look carefully to know who was coming, although he was extremely tired now, he still stood up and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, please take a seat." ”
Yue Zhanming's face was displeased, he hadn't figured out how this matter had become like this, Yun Shan suddenly jumped into the well and died, as if he knew something, but the problem was ...... How did she know? However, this qiē became a mystery, and with Yun Shan's death, no one answered him anymore.
He couldn't sit still, he always felt that today's events were too bizarre, and he couldn't calm down, so he finally waited until it was nearly midnight, and then quietly came to find Leng Yiwei.
When Yue Zhanming saw Leng Yiwei, he was no longer polite, and asked straight to the point: "What is going on today?" ”
Leng Yiwei knew that there must be nothing good for him to come, especially today's chaotic and bad situation, which was even more of a headache, he waved his hand, "Lord Wang, to be honest, this king doesn't know what's going on, but there will be news soon." ”
"How could you not know?" Yue Zhanming raised his eyebrows, he was obviously not satisfied with Leng Yiwei's answer, and sat down on the chair with a big move, "Didn't you say that this matter is foolproof?" ”
He paused, and without waiting for Leng Yiwei to answer, he continued: "Don't say anything foolproof now, even Yun Shan got in, and I don't know what she knew, and she actually committed suicide like this!" In front of so many people, how can this king explain? ”
Leng Yiwei was already in an irritable mood, and physically and mentally exhausted, seeing that Yue Zhanming was also fighting his spirits, although he knew that Yue Zhanming's feelings were not good, but he didn't expect that he was so rude, obviously blaming himself, especially Yun Shan's death, should he rely on his own head?
Leng Yiwei leaned back in the chair, took a long breath and said: "Lord, this king and you have always been of the same mind, both think that the plan can succeed, and now that they have failed, this king is also very sorry, this king's situation is much more difficult than that of the prince, after all, this is in my Jokhang country, and the county lord of Yunshan, she is the prince's person, could it be that something happened to her, why did she commit suicide, the prince doesn't know?" ”
Leng Yiwei's words were soft knives, but they pierced Yue Zhanming's heart, how could he not know that Yun Shan's death could not be relied on Leng Yiwei's head, but ...... I have carefully cultivated chess pieces for so many years, and if I say no, it will be gone......
He suppressed the anger in his heart, thinking about what Yun Shan said before she died, she must have known something, but how did she know? He paid attention to Leng Yiwei's expression, Ling Wu's domestic affairs were very secretive, and Yun Shan had no possibility of talking about this matter to Leng Yiwei, so ...... Who the hell is it?
This important question, but there was no way to ask the answer, made Yue Zhanming almost crazy.
"The prince just said that there will be news soon, what do you mean?" Yue Zhanming also felt that what he said just now was a bit heavy, so he had no choice but to change the topic.
"This king has already sent someone to investigate, if nothing else, there will be news early tomorrow morning, who is it, leaked the news, so that Leng Yixiu and others can calculate us like this, if it is not arranged in advance, it will definitely not be so accurate to grasp the opportunity."
Leng Yiwei said, the look on his face was cold, gloomy and dripping water, and two traces of poisonous light flashed in his eyes.
Yue Zhanming looked at his expression, looking at his appearance, he really didn't have a clue, he could only stand up in a daze, and said: "In this way, this king will not bother, he will leave first, and when the prince has news, please let me know." ”
"Definitely." Leng Yiwei didn't keep him anymore, he was really tired to death.
Yue Zhanming walked out of Leng Yiwei's courtyard, standing at the gate of the courtyard, he couldn't help but look at the grove, where Yun Shan ended her life, she followed her all the way to come, never thought that this grove was actually the end of her life.
Yue Zhanming couldn't tell what kind of feeling he felt in his heart, the cool breeze of the autumn night blew, there was a hint of coolness, and the air was mixed with the smell of burnt things.
This time, Leng Yiwei's loss was not small, of course Yue Zhanming knew that the hunting was handled by Leng Yiwei himself, and now that such a serious thing has happened, even if this fire is considered a natural disaster in the eyes of others, but in any case, Leng Yiwei is always unfavorable.
If you can take advantage of this fire, you can pull Leng Yixiu down from the glory, and Leng Yiwei will be able to follow the upper position, which can be regarded as not in vain, but now, the loss is caused, but Leng Yiwei is still good.
lost his wife and broke his soldiers.
Yue Zhanming was a little confused, was it right or wrong for him to insist like this? Do you want to continue? For the first time in these days, he was shaken.
Just as he was about to turn around when he finished his thoughts, suddenly, something seemed to flash in the woods, like a figure, but it was too fast, so that he was a little stunned, thinking that he was dazzled.
Yue Zhanming narrowed his eyes, there was no one, it was still dark, the outline of the woods was faintly visible, and there was a thick black shadow on the ground.
Nothing.
Yue Zhanming hesitated and turned around, maybe he was too tired today and thought too much about things, so he was really dazzled for a while, right? He tried to turn around and keep walking, but something flashed again.
This time, Yue Zhanming's eyes widened, he would never feel dazzled again, he really saw something flashing.
Yue Zhanming held the handle of the steel knife in his hand, pursed his lips and said nothing, he only believed that someone was pretending to be a ghost or had some intention, he didn't believe that there were any ghosts in this world.
How can people who have been on the battlefield and come out of the blood and fire be frightened by some ghosts? If there really is a ghost who comes to ask for his life, then don't you have a good life every day? You should be surrounded by those ghosts every day, right?
He curled his lips slightly, if it wasn't a ghost, and dodged like this, someone must be playing a ghost, he walked forward gently, and made a detailed observation at the edge of the woods, although he knew that the soldiers in the grove had only retreated after dark today, and no one had the opportunity to do anything here, but he was still cautious and carefully observed before stepping in.
It was dark all around, the leaves had not yet begun to fall, the moonlight could only shine into a star, and it was impossible to see clearly in the woods, and from time to time the wind passed through the trees, like a ghost crying.
Yue Zhanming searched around, holding the handle of the steel knife in his hand, but in the end he didn't find any figure, he searched again in confusion, but still didn't find anything.
Yue Zhanming observed for a long time, and finally couldn't hold it back, and was about to turn around and leave, where did he think that he had just taken a few steps, he felt like he had stepped on something, he slowly raised his foot, and looked at it in the faint moonlight, and found that there was indeed something under his feet, he was puzzled and flicked it with his toes, and something slowly appeared from the dust.
This appearance made Yue Zhanming startled, and he almost jumped up from the ground.
He looked around nervously, there was nothing but the sound of the wind, he held his breath, slowly bent down, stretched out two fingers, and gently picked up the thing in the dust.
"Hey, you see the way he holds things, like the Buddha often said?"
"Hmph, just his five big and three thick appearance, his fingers are like mallets, and what kind of fingers...... You can figure it out. ”
"Why do you talk like that? People also have young days, and people have ......"
"Shut up!"
The two secret bickering in the distance stopped, and the four eyes watched Yue Zhanming's movements in the woods, he picked up that thing and gently put it in the palm of his hand, as if holding a treasure, his expression was a little lonely, with a faint sadness in his eyes, and he stood there motionless and watched.
It was an earring, a ruby earring, carved from a ruby that was not particularly good, although the carving was average, but it could be seen that it was done with care, a small drop shape, with smooth and smooth edges, shining in the dark moonlight.
She once said that it was more like a tear.
Yes, a tear.
The two observers in the dark couldn't help but look at each other when they looked at Yue Zhanming with such a demeanor, the dignified black-robed prince could still have such a look, it was really amazing.
