Chapter Twenty-Three: I Don't Hear the Newcomer Cry
Rong En walked down the street, the soldiers in front of him opened the way, and on both sides were the people of Tianyu Kingdom kneeling, but they did not have any effect on him, and his steps were light and forward. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
He was dressed in a white shirt with a light blue veil, and in the sunlight he could see the faint delicate dark patterns, and he walked ethereal, as if he was wandering outside the mortal world, and it would be a blasphemy to him to look at it more.
Zijin picked a white magnolia flower from the flower stall and threw it towards Rong En's arms, no one would have thought that the white magnolia was injected with a lot of internal force by Zijin, and the speed was extremely fast, and it was definitely fatal.
Magnolia flew towards Rong En at great speed, and Rong En seemed to be unaware.
How can it be? The next moment, the situation made Zijin unbelievable.
The magnolia flew to a place a foot away from Rong En, as if it had collided with something, and became indistinguishable from ordinary flowers, and fell down.
Rong En stretched out his hand unhurriedly, caught Magnolia, and turned his head to look at Zijin, his eyes were clear and clean to the extreme, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and a warm smile rose on the corner of his mouth, nodding to Zijin.
Looking at the face similar to Rong Li, Zijin still couldn't believe it, this is the young man who has been with her for three years, the face that used to be only fantasized in dreams, and now, why did it become so strange when it really appeared in front of her.
Zijin only cared about verifying the doubts in his heart, completely unaware of the meaning of his actions.
Above the attic, Wuxian took in everything, a little puzzled, didn't Rong Xiaogongzi leave Zixu Mountain for the first time? How do you feel that the county lord seems to be familiar with Rong Xiaogongzi?
In the next second, Zijin's action of throwing flowers made Wuxian even more stunned.
"Young master, did the county lord and Xiao Gongzi Rong know each other before?" Wuxian asked.
Rong Li lazily leaned against the window and smiled: "Maybe." It was like a home at first sight. ”
"Is Xiao Gongzi Rong going back to Rong Mansion?"
"Since Your Majesty has sealed the mansion for him, there is no need, after all, now that he is the Heavenly Master of Tianyu, it is better not to come back." What's good to come back.
After Jung En left, the streets slowly returned to their former state, and people began their lives.
"Haha, I really didn't expect that our lord would show his love to a man in public, and he really didn't let the woman shave his eyebrows." Zixi smiled from ear to ear.
Zijin's voice was extremely low: "Is it funny?" ”
"It's not funny, my subordinates just admire it, it's just the master." Zixi pretended to be serious.
Zijin glanced at Zixi and looked at her face that was red from holding back laughter: "Okay, just laugh if you want to, be careful of suffocating." ”
Really, the speed of spreading gossip in ancient times is no less than that of modern times, okay? It's only been a day, and everyone knows about it, and tomorrow if other countries will know about her Lin Zijin's feat.
Looking at Zijin's loveless expression, Zixi no longer took pleasure in this matter.
"Alright, my lord, don't be so listless. The subordinates have something to report. ”
"What's the matter?" Zijin, who was lying on the table, sat up.
"The news came from the palace that the emperor stayed in Hehuan Palace last night, and even the morning court was delayed today." Zixi said.
Zijin pondered for a moment and raised his eyebrows: "It seems that Jinsu is quite capable." ”
"Although Jin Su is Qingqi, he can still learn something after staying in that place for a long time."
"Yes." Zijin nodded approvingly.
"I hope she's okay in the palace." Zixi sighed.
*********************
In the Hehuan Palace, Jin Suping was lying on the bed with empty and dull eyes, and her thin red quilt lined her skin more fair, and her expression was confused, like an extremely delicate doll.
Her eyelashes moved slightly, her vision blurred, and tears flowed from her eyes.
Father, Mother, I miss you so much, I want to go home, I want to go to you......
Jin Su thought about it, and her tears had already broken the embankment.
On that day, when Jinsu's father returned, he asked her to go to the temple outside the city to pray for her family's blessings.
Three days later, when he returned home, the emperor ordered the Yang family to be beheaded all over the house, and no one survived.
In order to protect her, Jinsu's father disguised a servant girl as her and guillotined.
In order to survive, she had to sing for a living, and was humiliated and bullied in the Qinglou, for Jinsu, who has been pampered since childhood, it is not torment, and she chose the latter after all for survival and dignity.
After waking up again, she was rescued by Rong Li, ransomed her body, and took her out of Yangzhou to Tianyu.
With Rong Li's assistance, she finds out the truth about the raid on the Jin family, tells her who the real enemy is, and Rong Li arranges a new identity for her......
Jin Su didn't know that she was just a pawn of others, but for a person with a dead heart, what could be a reason to support her to live besides hatred?
In the middle of the night, a girl of the same age as Zijin walked in quickly, with a melon seed face and big eyes.
"Miss Jinsu, the father-in-law has arrived."
Jin Su stretched out his hand to wipe away his tears, sat up, and walked into the courtyard with his desperate love after he finished dressing. A eunuch stood in the courtyard, stepped forward slowly, and knelt down one step away from the eunuch.
The eunuch unfolded the holy decree and said aloud: "Miaoyin Jinsu, diligent and supple, gentle and virtuous. Deeply heartfelt, specially sealed for contouring, admire this. After that, the eunuch put the holy decree in front of Jin Su: "Congratulations to Jin Xiu, take the decree quickly." ”
Jin Su looked at the golden holy decree, and slowly raised his hand to take the holy decree: "Your Majesty, Jin Su took the decree." "Bow your head slowly, Shane.
Jin Su looked at the holy decree in his hand and couldn't help but clench it tightly.
An extremely charming smile bloomed on her countenance, and she stood up, this path was her own choice, she died from the moment she stepped into the palace wall, and there was no more brocade in this world.
**************************
"Young Master Rong, please." A maidservant girl led Rong Xi to the lake in the Snow Moon Garden of Rongfu, and the young man who resembled himself lazily sat by the willow tree, reading a letter very seriously.
Rong Li raised his head, his eyes as dark as an abyss, and Rong En's eyes as clear as morning dew collided like two of the most extreme substances in the world.
Rong Li smiled kindly: "My brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Rong En also smiled politely: "My brother and I should have met for the first time." His tone was shallow, as if he were talking to a stranger, without the slightest emotion.
"Ahem, that's right." Rong Li's jaw coughed lightly.
"Hasn't your body recovered yet?" Jong asked.
Rong Li was slightly surprised, originally thinking that he would not care. "It's fine, it's just a broken body, I don't care." His tone was flat, as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him.
Rong En looked at the lake, the sky suddenly drifted a drizzle, the raindrops fell in the water, so that the original mirror-like water surface ripples slowly faded, the entire Snow Moon Garden was hazy, like a fairyland, sycamores, green bamboo, weeping willows, lakes, and drizzle blended with each other.
"What does that brother care about?"
Rong Li raised his head, his eyes were deep and light, his eyes looked through the emerald green willow leaves to the sky shrouded in light mist, and said slowly: "I care about a lot of things, but I don't care. ”
Rong En frowned slightly, "Brother, don't you care about this world?" ”
Rong Li didn't speak, and his expression was calm and elegant, no different from the past.
"It's raining, so let's go back early." Rong Endao.
Rong left his chin, slowly stood up, pulled the cloak on his body with his hand, and walked towards the attic in the forest with Rong En.
"County Lord, did you see Lord Celestial Master yesterday?" Xiao Zhi asked excitedly.
Zijin took a bite of food, looked up at Xiao Zhi and the others with anticipation on their faces and nodded.
Xiao Zhi asked again: "Is the master really handsome and extraordinary and powerful in that day, the county lord?" ”
"Ahem." Zijin coughed violently.
"County Lord." Xiao Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and patted Zijin's back with his hand: "County Lord, it's okay?"
"It's okay! It's okay! Zijin waved his hand and almost choked to death.
Zijin sat down and said seriously: "Xiaozhi, who told you this?" ”
Xiao Zhi smiled embarrassedly: "The slave maid listened to Mother Liu, she said that the Heavenly Master was handsome and extraordinary, and his divine power was even better, so he was loved by the county lord." ”
After Xiao Zhi finished speaking, there was a deathly silence in the room, as if even everyone's heartbeat could be heard, and the time it took to breathe was as long as the light and shadow of several years.
"Mother Liu? Doesn't she never leave the house? How did you find out? Zijin raised his eyebrows, and his tone was cold.
Xiao Zhi was shocked and hurriedly knelt down: "The county lord is angry." ”
She didn't say anything and just responded with silence, but she wanted to cause a huge psychological pressure on Xiaozhi, and her fingers were lightly clasped on the table, in order to deliberately create a tense atmosphere, and it also became a trick to break Xiaozhi's last psychological defense.
Well, very well, now I dare to spread these unfounded rumors under her nose. Zijin's fingers lightly pressed on the tabletop. Xiaozhi's heart was about to stop, and he couldn't stop shaking.
"You're really getting bolder, and you're turning a deaf ear to what I used to say." Zijin's hand slapped the table and stood up, and the people in the room immediately knelt down.
Zijin looked down at Xiao Zhi and said coldly: "Someone." ”
As soon as the words fell, the two family members walked briskly from outside the house and saluted Zijin.
Zijin said, "Drag the small branch out for me." ”
Xiao Zhi raised his head suddenly, his face was full of horror, he kowtowed vigorously, and his voice trembled: "The county lord spares his life, Xiao Zhi knows that he is wrong, and Xiao Zhi no longer dare." ”
Fan Yi couldn't bear to close her eyes, she was just a maidservant girl who couldn't do anything even if she couldn't bear it, and pleaded for mercy, in case the county lord was even more angry, it would also implicate Xiaozhi, so she could only act as if she didn't know what to do.
Zijin frowned, turned to look at the two family members: "What?" Is my command not good? Don't take it away yet. ”
The family looked at each other and saluted: "Yes." Then he walked towards the small branch, and one of them picked up the small stand and dragged it out.
Xiaozhi was still crying and begging Zijin to spare her life. Zijin closed his eyes: "Fanyi, go and gather all the people in the Liuyue Pavilion into the courtyard, and no one should be missing." Her voice looked very tired.
"Yes, Fanyi understands." Fanyi stood up and walked away quickly.
In the Liuyue Pavilion, the subordinates stood aside and looked at the small branch kneeling in the courtyard, with different expressions. Some people look worried, while others look smug as if they're watching a show.
Xiaozhi has been a celebrity around the county lord for the past three years, and now the county lord wants to punish her in public, which is really surprising to everyone.
Zijin walked out of the house, stood on the steps and quickly swept his gaze over everyone, although it can't be said that everyone's reaction can be accurately analyzed, but Zijin thinks it's not too much different.
opened his mouth and said: "The small branch is pampered and arrogant, and the rod is twenty years old." ”
Xiao Zhi's face instantly turned pale, Fan Yi bit his lip and looked at Xiao Zhi worriedly.
Because of Zijin's presence, the family didn't dare to blatantly release the water, and every stick fell firmly on Xiaozhi.
"County Lord, Xiaozhi knows it's wrong, please let me go." Xiaozhi screamed in pain, but Zijin didn't mean to be soft-hearted at all.
Pink Yi had the courage to step forward and kneel in front of Zijin and begged: "County Lord, Sister Xiaozhi, she really knows that she is wrong, please ask the County Lord to spare her life." ”
"Are you hurting her?" Zijin looked down at the pink clothes who were kneeling on the ground to intercede for Xiaozhi, and said flatly.
Fan Yi immediately closed his mouth, bit his lip, and the stick hit Xiao Zhi's body one after another, not only the people in Fan Yi were also panicked.
is what she wants, Xiaozhi is not much at fault, but she accidentally bumped into the blade that Zijin had just polished, so Zijin could only use her to open the knife and make an example of the chickens.
Twenty sticks went down, and the small branch was unconscious. One of the family members stepped forward and saluted: "County Lord, the little branch girl is unconscious. ”
"Take her down, put her in the firewood room, and no one is allowed to let her out without my permission." Zijin looked around at the people standing on the side and said coldly.
"Yes." The family set up a small branch again and dragged her towards the firewood room.
"People who spread rumors are absolutely not allowed in the Flowing Moon Pavilion, if this kind of thing happens next time, just remove their tongues and disperse." Zijin turned around and went back to the house.
Everyone in the courtyard looked at the blood stains on the ground, at a loss, and the people around them discussed in whispers, and after a while, they all dispersed.
Zijin left, Fan Yi also breathed a sigh of relief, slowly stood up, now her body is still trembling, Fan Yi adjusted her breathing, walked into the house, walked to Zijin, the room was dim, and the fragrance of red sandalwood soothed the confusion.
Fan Yi picked up the teapot and filled the teacup with tea, and put it in front of Zijin: "County Lord, please use tea." ”
Zijin seemed to wake up from a dream and looked at Fanyi. Fanyi's heart trembled.
The corners of Zijin's mouth hooked up a smile, but it didn't go straight to the bottom of his heart: "Thank you." ”
"Fanyi, you go and tell Uncle Fu that Mother Liu is too old to stay in King Lin's Mansion anymore, find a reason to send it away."
Zijin thought for a moment and then said, "You go to the pharmacy and ask the medical officer to prescribe some medicine for her, find some edible meals for her, and remember not to let others see them." ”
"Yes." Fan Yi replied, and he was very happy in his heart, the county lord was a kind-hearted person.
Zijin stood up: "I'm tired, go down." ”
Xiaozhi lay on the straw and hadn't eaten anything since morning, now she was really hungry, the whole person was dizzy, I don't know what happened to Liu's mother, I blamed myself for not choosing what to say, I hope the county lord can see the past feelings and not embarrass her. The pain came in bursts, and she could only endure it without medicine.
There was a sound of someone fiddling with the door lock outside the firewood room, and Xiao Zhi leaned his head slightly: "Who is it?" ”
