Chapter 178: Misjudgment
The two looked at each other short-sightedly, Yue Mingchong was a little weak-hearted, but her eyes showed innocence, grievance and stubbornness, saying that she was a road idiot and went to the wrong room, and she would not admit it if she was killed.
After staring for a while, the other party was finally shocked by her fierce expression, maybe he didn't want to annoy her anymore, and he was beaten violently for no reason, so he turned his face slowly and went to drink tea leisurely.
There was another silence, he coughed twice to break the embarrassing scene, and muttered: "Even the wine was brought, and he said that he didn't come to accompany Benxiang, even girl, is it necessary for us to be so tense?" ”
"Prime Minister Xiao, let me repeat again, I'm not one of those dusty women who hooked the fence, don't get me wrong." She shifted her gaze to the slightly swaying wine jug, and said in a deep voice: "It's useless to talk more, I'm leaving!" ”
Dai Mei couldn't stand it, how could she Yue Mingchong be willing to stay here for a while longer, the previous assumptions and speculations were completely overturned, unexpectedly, who would have thought that it was not Lang Chen who was corroded and polluted by wine and beauty under house arrest, but Xiao Tao.
When Yunbo City fell, Xiao Tao and Judge Cui came to Ruiyuan, at that time, he was a man who knew the danger but did not hesitate to go deep into the tiger's den, when punishing Wu Yan of Zhizhou, his attitude was gentle, his tone was gentle, but every sentence was like a needle, so that Wu Yan did not dare to bother to shirk responsibility.
is not angry and self-threatening, unfathomable, this is her evaluation of him. She didn't know how much difference there was between Xiao Tao that the people of Beijing heard and what she saw with her eyes. However, at this moment, Xiao Tao, who has long hair scattered, indulges in wine, and succumbs to the power of King Yin of Jinhuai, is really impressive to her, and he is obviously more inclined to the "soft bones" and "wall grass" rumored by the people.
Hearing a joking chuckle, Yue Ming glared at him angrily, "Prime Minister Xiao, probably I was blinded by ghosts in the past, so I thought that Xiangye was clean and loved the high wind and bright festival, and cherished his family and country, when you were in Ruiyuan, did you pretend to be?" The dismissal of Zhizhou Wu Yan is also what you made a show for everyone to see, right? ”
Hearing this, Xiao Tao slowly turned his face and looked at Yue Mingchong in disbelief, "Girl Lian, I didn't see a girl when I arrived in Ruiyuan, how did you know that I was a pie?" Listen to your breath as if you have seen it with your own eyes. ”
"Isn't it important to see it with your own eyes? I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. Seeing that the flask was almost about to break free from her arms, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xiao Tao staring at the constantly shaking flask in her arms with a surprised expression, she immediately opened the cloth bag and threw the flask in.
"Is there anything in the flask?" Xiao Tao's expression changed, he looked down at the purple jade pendant that fell on his chest, and suddenly saw that the purple jade was emitting a faint light, and his eyes suddenly became cold, "Lian girl, rashly cultivating demon art will harm others and yourself, I advise you not to go astray." ”
"You just went astray, I didn't bother to explain to you, I took my leave!"
strode to the door, suddenly the footsteps could no longer move forward, the cloth bag behind her was pulled by Xiao Tao, she quickly turned around and scooped the cloth bag into her arms and hugged it. Dai Mei's roar came out intermittently, and Yue Mingchong secretly screamed badly, if he delayed for a while, maybe the wine pot would be broken.
Seeing that he still didn't give up, he seemed to have the intention of persuading her to "get lost and know how to return", and when he opened his mouth to speak, she said coldly: "Prime Minister Xiao, you'd better leave my affairs alone, otherwise, you will be the first to die...... I forgot to remind you that overindulgence can hurt your body, and I advise you not to be willing to fall. ”
Glancing at the purple jade on his chest, she hurried to the door, feeling him coming closely, she instinctively slapped him back, knocking him back again and again.
Rushing all the way to the room, she was so anxious that she took the flask out of the cloth bag, but what she expected did not happen, and she did not hear Daimei's uneasy and angry screams. Yue Ming sighed at the long beard, and suddenly remembered the pendant on Xiao Tao's chest that emitted purple light, probably because of the magic weapon with the aura of immortals, which made Dai Mei feel oppressive. It's no wonder, if it's an ordinary pendant, how can it be mistaken by Hitomi for a hanging bead left from the heavenly realm?
On the fourth watch, the winter wind blew into the small courtyard, hovered in the open space for a while, and blew towards the lighted wing, and the half-covered window was blown open by the strong wind, blowing out the candles on the table.
A long black shadow pushed the door in, closed the window, walked to the table in the dark, took out the fire fold and re-lit the candle, and the person who was resting on the table covered his yawn, rubbed his eyes, and said lazily: "Second brother, you are back." ”
"Hmm...... What about Qiao'er? Gongsun Yi glanced into the room and found no trace of Yu Qiaofeng, Yu Zhaoyuan got up and took off his cloak for Gongsun Yi, "Qiao'er is already asleep, do you want me to wake him up?" ”
After finishing speaking, Yu Zhaoyuan walked into the inner room with his cloak, Gongsun Yi coughed twice, paused and said, "Don't call him, let him sleep." ”
"Second brother, are you caught the cold? Why didn't you let the imperial doctor take a look when you entered the palace? ”
"It doesn't matter, people who practice martial arts are still afraid of a little wind and cold......"
Before the words fell, I only heard Yu Zhaoyuan exclaim: "Why is it gone?" Second brother, Qiao'er is gone. ”
"What's the matter, I'm just going out for a walk." The door was pushed open, and the person who came in wrapped in wind and sand patted the dust on his body, "Second brother, when did you come back?" Does the emperor have a will? ”
Without waiting for Gongsun Yi to reply, Yu Zhaoyuan walked forward quickly and grabbed Yu Qiaofeng, and complained: "Where did you go?" Jingshi is in such a mess now, are you not afraid of accidents alone? ”
"Sister Yuan, don't worry about it, I'm not a child anymore, I originally wanted you to go out for a walk with me, but you slept like a dead pig, and you couldn't wake up." Yu Qiaofeng took off his robe and boots, jumped on the bed, and wrapped himself like a zongzi.
Gongsun Yi didn't say much, and asked directly: "You went out, did you find something?" ”
"The second brother still understands me, I found out the news, Prime Minister Xiao is still alive."
"Really? Do you know where others are? Yu Zhaoyuan said in surprise, jumped on the bed, and squeezed Yu Qiaofeng into the corner.
Yu Qiaofeng moved the place with a reluctant face, and said to Gongsun Yi: "Prime Minister Xiao Cheng is under house arrest in the Jinhuai Palace at the moment, does the second brother know who took Prime Minister Xiao Cheng away from the mansion?" ”
"I said you don't want to sell Guanzi, who else can there be besides King Jin Huai." Yu Zhaoyuan was a little dissatisfied with Yu Qiaofeng deliberately going around in circles, but he had to suppress his strong curiosity.
Yu Qiaofeng patted Yu Zhaoyuan and said with a smile: "You guessed wrong, it was not someone else who took away Prime Minister Xiao but Lang Chen, now, I don't need to say it clearly, right?" ”
The first to refute Yu Qiaofeng is Yu Zhaoyuan, Lang Chen's reputation is excellent, and his virtue is enough to be admired and respected in the government and the opposition, how can she not believe that Lang Chen, who is upright, still took refuge in King Jin Huai.
"No matter how you look at it, Lang Chen doesn't look like a person who violates yang and yin." She really hoped that she had misheard, if even Lang Chen rebelled, how many loyal ministers would there be in the dynasty?
"The most important thing at the moment is to rescue Xiao Tao first, I am afraid that there will be many dreams at night, and Xiao Tao will worry about his life." Gongsun Yi thinks more, people have two sides, Lang Chen is like this, and Xiao Tao is also like this. Xiao Tao, who is sleek and sleek on the surface, actually has his own set of principles, which seems to be muddy and messes the court into a pot of porridge, but in fact he is a loyal and patriotic person, as soon as Xiao Tao dies, half of the dynasty will collapse.
Yu Qiaofeng saw Gongsun Yi's worries, nodded and said: "Second brother is very right, but the palace is heavily guarded, if we act rashly, we will not harm Prime Minister Xiao." ”
"That's right, we'll have to take care of it." As if he suddenly remembered something, Yu Zhaoyuan turned to Yu Qiaofeng and asked, "How have you done with the things entrusted to you by the eldest brother?" ”
"The wolf girl is still in Ruiyuan, and her family has not been found yet, I will let people inquire, and I will send her home when this matter is over."
Yu Qiaofeng remembered the advice of the eldest brother Luo Qiujian, and must take good care of the little girl who is with the wolves all day long, the eldest brother is kind-hearted, and he doesn't want the girl to live an inhuman life like a beast anymore, but what about people, where to get his affection, and treat him as an enemy, tearing and biting, completely treating him as a prey. If it weren't for the fact that the girl was seriously injured, how could she obediently follow him back to Ruiyuan.
"In two days, I have to go back to Ruiyuan to see if the girl is recuperating at ease, whether she hurts anyone, if she really makes trouble, I will kick her out, I don't care if my eldest brother will be angry." Yu Qiaofeng shuddered at the thought of the wolf girl grinning at the people of Ruiyuan, and it was better not to let his assumption come true.
Yue Mingchong sat by the window, looking coldly at the pair of men and women intimately and ambiguously telling each other love words.
After a long time, her endurance had reached the limit, she got up and walked behind the two of them, and reached out to pull away the bewitching woman hanging on the man, "Get out." She shouted.
The woman who was pulled aside was obviously very dissatisfied with Yue Mingchong's approach, rolled her eyelids, and shouted in a sharp voice: "Why do you want me to go out, it is you who should go out, disturbing my good interest with Xiangye on the side." ”
"I'll let you out, and if you talk more, you'll be responsible for the consequences." Unleashed cruel words, she glared at the other party coldly, and the arrogant woman suddenly lost her momentum and retreated outside the house.
Xiao Tao seemed to have no intention, and slowly opened the food box sent by the maid, "It's not bad, this King of Jinhuai is also taking great pains, knowing my preferences, and specially invited the cook of Dafanglou into the palace, if you don't eat, how can you be worthy of the prince's kindness." ”
Lifting the chopsticks and tasting them, he was full of praise, and when he caught a glimpse of Yue Mingchong staring at him expressionlessly, Xiao Tao smiled and said, "Why are you angry with the girl?" ”
"Prime Minister Xiao, you obviously can't help yourself, why do you look like you're enjoying it? How dare you feel comfortable under house arrest here? She really doesn't understand this person, she is in prison but she is leisurely, and she can handle it calmly, if it was put on someone else, she would probably have been driven crazy.
After getting along for a few days, she finally knew what King Jin Huai meant when he said that she still had use value, and ordinary women couldn't help him, so she let Lian Jin, who was used to using methods, come forward. Therefore, she can also enter and exit Cangling Pavilion openly, and finally truly find out the true side of Xiao Tao. Compared with her own two-faced and three-faced, Xiao Tao seems to be superior, he has his own wisdom and a unique mind, this kind of bearing is incomparable to her, even Gongsun Yi can't compare with it.
I can't help but think that if the person who is under house arrest here is Gongsun Yi, it will not take a moment for the woman who came to die Huangquan, he is the kind of person who lives with dignity and dies, and he can't be nested in death, so that he pretends to give in and wait for the opportunity, which is completely inconsistent with his character.
"Miss Lian, you are different from what is rumored." Xiao Tao ate vegetables on one wall, and looked at her on the other, "I think you look like a person." ”
"Prime Minister Xiao, you are also very different from the rumors, I don't know who Prime Minister Xiao thinks I look like?" Her stomach was growling, and seeing that Xiao Tao was eating with relish, she couldn't restrain her gluttony, grabbed a piece of puff pastry chicken and stuffed it into her mouth.
Suddenly, she felt an unusual gaze on the other side looking directly at her, and she swallowed the chicken stiffly.
"Even girl, have you eaten?" Xiao Tao looked at her, and his eyes were dyed with a strange color.
