Chapter 143: Truth and Falsehood (2)

When Duan Chengcheng returned to his residence, it was already the third watch. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

After several battles this night, she was already exhausted. Jiang Xiaolou didn't know where to hide, she entered the house and put down the knife in her hand.

She stood tiredly against the wall, breathing a little flustered. She silently looked at the hand holding the knife just now, and it was trembling slightly.

When she remembered the scene when she was in the imperial study, she felt inexplicably afraid. In a hurry, she couldn't control herself, that person was the emperor who ruled the world, if she really angered this person who wanted to kill her and then quickly, she would have no chance of survival.

After this catastrophe, Gong Ling has already had a lot of suspicions about her, if it wasn't for a group of assassins who happened to appear today, mistaking her for Gong Ling and taking the initiative to attack her, she took advantage of the situation to save Gong Ling, I'm afraid that it will be difficult for her to get out today.

While she was thinking, someone seemed to knock on his door, she was slightly startled, turned around and opened the door, and a man in black rushed in with great flexibility, it was Jiang Xiaolou.

"It's winding outside now, why did you come here directly?" She looked at Jiang Xiaolou, her eyes full of worry and defense.

"And where are you going to let me go?" Jiang Xiaolou sat down at the table with a frightened look, "I waited for you around here and didn't see you in the middle of the night, I thought something was wrong with you......"

"Alright, what about that thing?" She asked suddenly.

"I can't lose it." Jiang Xiaolou took the small brocade box from his bosom and put it on the table, "We almost put our lives on the line for this thing." ”

Duan Chengcheng took the brocade box and couldn't wait to open it, the pearl-like light was flickering, and the beautiful jade color illuminated the dim room.

"Night Pearl ......" She looked at the small object in her hand, her heart was half cold, and she had worked hard for the past few days, but she never thought that she would be put on the spot by others.

Jiang Xiaolou looked at the things in her hand, and laughed helplessly, "I thought we would be able to leave the palace tonight, but it was calculated......

She put down the little night pearl of the night, her eyes trembled slightly, mixed with a bit of lust, "Forget it, until now, I can only continue to look for it." ”

"Still looking, are you crazy? After such a fuss today, can the little emperor not be suspicious of you? Jiang Xiaolou couldn't sit still as soon as she heard her words, did she want to put her life into it?

"They won't touch me yet." She stared coldly at the glowing bead on the table, "Since we're here, there's no reason for us to go home empty-handed." In three days, the relics will be found. ”

Her hand supporting the table secretly exerted her strength, and the glittering night pearl in the brocade box trembled, and then shattered into powder out of thin air.

"Huh? How did you break it! Jiang Xiaolou saw that the night pearl was shattered into slag, and immediately became anxious, "It's also the result of my busy night's work, don't you leave it to me......"

"You can't keep this thing, you will be burned." Duan Qingcheng glared at him, and didn't bother to explain. She sat down by herself, gently closed her eyes and gasped, the blood stains on her neck had dried up, and she pressed her collar together, pulling the flesh and skin as she moved, and the slightest pain made her uncomfortable for a while.

"You're hurt?" Jiang Xiaolou saw her sit down, and only by the faint light could he see the blood stains on her clothes.

"It's okay, it's self-inflicted, it's just a skin injury." She sat back in her chair and did not move, her tone was neither tepid nor light, still closing her eyes and recuperating.

Jiang Xiaolou seemed to have known that she would say this, but he didn't know what to say about her, so he kept silent.

He took out a small medicine bottle and handkerchief from his bosom and put it on the table, the medicine was the wound medicine he carried with him, and the handkerchief was used when he disguised himself as a woman, and he carried it in his arms.

He got up again and took the wine he hadn't finished that day, and found half a bowl of water. The handkerchief was wet, and before he could touch her, she opened her cold eyes and looked at him.

"What for?" She was surprised to see him holding a handkerchief.

"I'll help you get the medicine." He replied as he gently wiped away the blood stain that had begun to dry up.

She looked at him quietly for a moment, then closed her eyes slightly, but did not object.

"It's said that it's a skin injury, and you can't die." She closed her eyes and said lightly.

"You can't just leave it alone, right? You are a girl's family, if you have a scar, you will not be able to marry in the future. He said.

Hearing Jiang Xiaolou's words, she felt ridiculous inexplicably, she was a witch who shouted and killed everyone, the public enemy of martial arts, licking life on the knife every day. The word marrying seems to have nothing to do with her from the beginning.

"Seeing that you are so virtuous and virtuous, if you are a girl, many people should rush to ask for it." She quipped.

Jiang Xiaolou's hand that was helping her with medicine stopped, and looked at her angrily, "Who did you learn this from?" Duan Chengcheng, who didn't eat fireworks in the world before, has now learned to make fun of people......"

"You brought it on yourself." The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she still closed her eyes to recuperate.

"No matter how you say it, you're amazing, I'm too lazy to pay attention to you......" Jiang Xiaolou stopped paying attention to her after helping her with the medicine, didn't he just ask for it? was pulled into the palace by her for no reason, and the four sides were in danger and were attacked from all sides. She has always been a person who doesn't take her life and death seriously, how can he bear to ignore her.

Outside the door, a woman with a strange shape quietly turned around and left after listening to the conversation between the two.

Unexpectedly, what these two people got from Huaqing Hall was actually fake, it seems that this emperor is really scheming. It's good that she didn't do it herself, otherwise, she would be the one who suffers now......

On the second day, the sky began to turn blue, and the officials above the court hall were divided into two rows, and before the official at the head, there was an unexpected middle-aged man wearing a golden crown and a dark green court robe, with a slightly bloated figure.

Although this person is mediocre in appearance, it can be seen from the calmness and unhurried attitude when he faced Gong Ling that his identity is not the same as that of an idle person.

Gong Ling, who was on the top position, was quite surprised, he didn't expect that this King Rui, who had always been sick in the mansion and did not come to the early dynasty, would appear in the court today in a decent manner.

Gong Ling looked at the King Rui who had not been seen in the court for several years, although he had a grudge in his heart, he still remained calm and friendly on the surface, "Uncle Wang has lived outside the customs for a long time, and he has recently entered Beijing, but he still has the habit of living?" ”

"Get used to it." King Narui smiled very kindly, "The emperor doesn't have to worry, the ministers live well." ”

"That's good." Gong Ling looked at him with a smile, "But someone told me, Uncle Wang, as soon as you return to Beijing, you will have close contacts with those people in the rivers and lakes, but is there such a thing?" ”

King Rui's face froze, but he didn't show his form, he nodded, "It's true, I don't know who told the emperor about these idle things, the minister just admired the martial arts heroes, so he made a few friends in his temperament, I never thought that someone would make a big fuss about this matter......"

"Uncle Wang, don't think about it." Gong Ling accepted it when he saw it, and didn't continue to ask any more, he said: "I am also afraid that those outlaws will take the opportunity to hurt Uncle Wang, so I will worry about Uncle Wang's safety." ”

"The emperor has a heart, and the ministers will pay attention to it, thank you for the emperor's concern." King Narui still responded with a smile on his face, not only responding to Gong Ling's words, but also having a humble attitude.

This made Gong Ling have no idea where to start, he wanted to mention the assassination last night to find out the bottom of him, but now it seems that there is no need for that, except for arousing the suspicion of other ministers in the court, there is no other benefit. (To be continued.) )
