Chapter 114: Mountain Alliance and Sea Oath
"So, how do you want Concubine Ben to answer you? Say I still remember you? I'm sorry, but Concubine Ben doesn't know how to lie. Yuan Jinning looked away.
Nangong Yu pursed her lips, her thick eyebrows tightened, staring at Yuan Jinning's lips and squirming for a few seconds, but she didn't know what to say.
The woman in front of her had a cold face, the dark light under her eyes was circulating, looking at the sky and the earth, but she no longer looked at him, as if she had really left him out of the world, but Nangong Yu didn't want to believe that the person who once loved him so much was now as cold to him as a stranger, and such a big difference made him unaccustomed to it for a while.
"Are you really Ning'er?"
Is it really the girl who has his eyes all over him?
"I am the princess regent, Yuan Jinning. Yuan Jinning did not deny it, but he did not confirm it.
She is Yuan Jinning, but she is no longer Nangong Yu's Yuan Jinning.
"Nangong Gongzi's concubine has already received it, this gift, there is no need, Luojing! Send off!" Yuan Jinning picked up the brocade box and stuffed it into Nangong Yu's hand, and drove the person away with an absolutely strong attitude.
"Pavilion master, Nangong Gongzi and you ......" Hongtang looked at it with a gossipy face, and Yuan Jinning was a little amused.
"It's just an old thing, not worth mentioning. ”
The voice of these words was raised, and they were heard in the ears of Nangong Yu, who had not gone far.
He turned his back to the two of them, and his steps paused slightly, and then continued to walk slowly, his handsome face without any expression, except doubt.
Sad? Sad?
He didn't feel like this, he had a place in his heart, and he took the trouble to get close to Yuan Jinning, just to let Yuan Lingwu return to the capital, and she promised herself that as long as she returned to the capital, she would marry herself...... The slender eyes narrowed slightly, full of determination.
Even if it was for his dance, he had to do whatever it took to gain Yuan Jinning's trust, if not...... Nangong Yu squinted, and the terrifying killing intent flashed.
"Hongtang, don't you have anything to ask me?" Seeing that the unrelated personnel were gone, Yuan Jinning said quietly.
In fact, she could have taken advantage of Hongtang's refusal to mention this matter and skip it, but if Hongtang thought about it in the future, she would feel a little uncomfortable in her heart, and when the time came, it would be better for Yuan Jinning to explain this matter to her now.
"The slave family, in fact, has been suspicious for a long time. Hongtang hesitated for a moment, sitting next to Yuan Jinning, Yuan Jinning raised his eyebrows, looked at Hongtang and waited for her answer.
"The slave family is very sensitive to smells, when the pavilion master appears as a god, there is a faint smell of pastries on his body, and when you approach us in the dungeon, I feel very strange, plus the princess is so noble, she never brings a maid by her side, and refuses us to come to the door, so I have some doubts about what you have to do with the gods, but I really didn't think about you......"
"Could it be the same person?" Yuan Jinning answered, poured a cup of flower tea and pushed it to Hongtang.
Then she really failed to eat, it seems that those smelly pastries or something, she has to eat less...... Forget it, let's take a bath after eating, she can't bear those delicious foods.
Receiving Hongtang's nodding response, Yuan Jinning's face was slightly straight, and he looked at Hongtang: "I'm sorry, I just need a support, I need a certain amount of power." ”
She survives in the cracks of the stones, and has to calculate others to pave a way for herself.
"The pavilion master doesn't have to be like this, the slave family was indeed a little angry at first, but it's good to think about it, we can be regarded as having a home, and we don't have to be adrift anymore, worrying about whether the bustard will trade us out tomorrow. Hongtang was joking, but he was telling the truth.
She was lucky to know Yuan Jinning. Hongtang's red lips were hooked, and her drooping eyes looked a little gentle.
Seeing that Hongtang was not resentful, Yuan Jinning quietly breathed a sigh of relief, she had already prepared for the worst, if Hongtang was angry and wanted to retreat, she would definitely not force her to stay, these days of getting along, she has already classified Hongtang as her own person, if Hongtang insists on leaving, Yuan Jinning will only push the boat down the river and let her go.
"I have some confidence when you say that. ”
The two chatted a few words, and Yuan Jinning saw that it was not early in the night, so he let Hongtang go back.
"Niangniang, it's getting late, rest quickly, it's not difficult for your body. Luo Jing put the medicine on the table, stared at Yuan Jinning and began to urge after drinking it.
"I know, housekeeper Xiao Jing'er, if anyone marries you, they will definitely be made by you. Yuan Jinning teased, and Luo Jing pouted.
"Slaves and maids don't want to marry, they must always stay by their mother's side. ”
"Xiao Jing'er shouldn't be in love with me, right? Yuan Jinning tilted her head, her eyes were slightly warm, although she knew that Luo Jing might have hidden something from her, but Luo Jing had never been sorry for herself, and she was really good to herself.
That's enough, she needs a companion, not a slave.
Luojing is a companion, not a servant.
......
When the spring flowers bloomed, Yuan Jinning's injury was almost healed, as long as she didn't exercise vigorously, she wouldn't pull the wound, and before Yuan Jinning began to investigate the identity of the three killers, the palace sent a decree to let her go to see the Queen Mother.
The emperor's order was unbearable, Yuan Jinning refused Qin Yuanyi's accompaniment, and took Luojing and Biqing to the palace together.
It's just to see a deep palace woman, she doesn't have any intimidation, and she doesn't need Qin Yuanyi to support her at all.
This palace is still as before, magnificent, but extremely dull, like a huge cage, imprisoning the bodies of countless women.
Came to the palace of the Queen Mother, Yuan Jinning knelt down to ask for peace, and after the head raised his hand to let her get up, he said unhurriedly: "The princess doesn't have to be so polite, after all, you are still injured." ”
Yuan Jinning smirked, the people in this palace are used to taking Qiao, and he has finished this big gift, and the queen mother's afterthought is not needed, it is simply funny.
After the Queen Mother ordered someone to give a seat, she began the usual methods used by women, and she didn't talk about the topic, and let Yuan Jinning take the initiative to ask.
"Is the princess's injuries okay? Has the identity of the assassin been found out before? The emperor has already sent someone to investigate, you can rest assured. The Queen Mother smiled and took out a brocade box: "Does the princess know what this is?"
"I don't know about the concubine. Yuan Jinning did not respond to the Queen Mother's cold greetings in the first half, and the Queen Mother went through the motions.
The Queen Mother squinted, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes protruded, the gentleness and kindness on her face, her shriveled hand stroked the box, and she rubbed it before opening it, it was a pair of heads, jade and jade beads, and for a moment Yuan Jinning felt a thick breath coming to her face, ah, it was the breath of money.
What does that mean, and what's the use of showing her this?
"Originally, this was intended for the head of the child in Lingwu, and it was worn at the ceremony after the mourning family. ”
