Chapter Seventy-Four: The Jade Bracelet
Zhou Sinian took out the bracelet and said, "In the future, don't reward such a valuable thing to your subordinates, originally the Dragon Guards just wanted to arrest Mr. Mu, and Qingqing was taken by the Dragon Guards for questioning because of this bracelet." ”
I looked at the jade bracelet in front of me, it was still so crystal warm and warm, with a girl's breath, I couldn't help but stick it on my face, as if it was sticking to the green and soft girl's body, and I sobbed softly in distress. After a long time, he said, "Why do the dragon guards catch me when I wear my bracelet?" Did I get her a burden, or did she get a trouble with me? ”
Zhou Sinian sighed deeply and said: "We usually do things and behave, we have to be low-key, the higher the position, the more we have to look lighter, and falling down can hurt more than others." Do you know what the emperor said? He said, is it that there are too many things in our family to let go, so we can reward them to our subordinates. ”
I defended: "No, I only gave Qingqing and Zege, they are not subordinates." Zhou Sinian said: "Other people are different from what you think, if something really happens, I'm afraid that no one will listen to your explanation." ”
I said, "I know, how is Qingqing now?" When can I go see her? Zhou Sinian said: "Don't worry, I will take care of her and make her more comfortable in her lifetime." After a pause, he said, "Don't go to visit, keep a good memory, don't add to your sadness." ”
When I heard him say this, I was very unhappy, but I couldn't even get out of bed now, even if he asked me to see Qingqing, I couldn't do anything. Said sadly: "Are the people inside the Dragon Guard human?" Such a lovely Qingqing, she didn't do anything wrong, how could they bear to hurt her so cruelly. ”
Zhou Sinian said: "Don't be sad about others, if it weren't for the emperor's words, do you think you can come out alive?" Qingqing became like this because she didn't know anything when she asked her. I said, "But she's telling the truth, she really doesn't know." Mr. Mu is just playing the piano in the Qingqing Dance Club, and it is impossible to tell her that he is the Zhu family. ”
Zhou Sinian did not speak, only sighed deeply. I looked at him with a worried look and asked tentatively, "What does Mr. Mu have to do with you, do you know?" Zhou Sinian said: "He is my distant uncle, the descendant of my great-grandfather and brother. ”
"Did you know that before?" I asked. He looked at me and said, "Yes." After a pause, he added, "But I didn't know what he was doing." He stood up and walked to the window, where the flowers were blooming. He stared at it for a while, and said sadly: "Mr. Mu committed suicide by biting his tongue, he probably knew too much, and he was afraid that he would not be able to endure the torture and say it, so he died early." ”
I said, "Could it be that the Dragon Guards asked me to ask for questioning because of Mr. Mu's case?" But what the Dragon Guards asked me about was my father's business, and it had nothing to do with the Zhu family? ”
Zhou Sinian heard me say this, turned around, the sadness on his face was gone, and he changed to his usual cold expression, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he smiled sadistfully, and said: "The matter of my father didn't happen alone, didn't Mr. Mu have a good friend, and he is also our old friend?" ”
I knew what he was thinking, his expression made me very uncomfortable, but I wanted to know the news of Yu Xuanji very much, pretending to be casual, and said casually: "Mr. Mu's friend? Do you mean Jade Mystery? Didn't Mr. Mu and Qingqing confess him? ”
Zhou Sinian slowly walked to my side and looked into my eyes, his eyes were deep and he couldn't see his heart. I lowered my eyelids, rolled over in disguise, moved my body that was sore from nervousness, and hid myself under the covers.
He helped me cover the quilt and said faintly: "Don't worry, Qingqing and Mr. Mu are like you, desperately trying to protect him." "I don't know what to say, and now I can't express what I think in my heart, whether I agree or disagree. finally said: "Brother Nian, you are the person I entrusted with my life, and you are the one who wants to protect me desperately." ”
He didn't speak, and paused for a moment before asking, "Are you finished?" I looked back at him in confusion, and he was also staring at me: "Is it hard to say that you love me?" I smiled at him, "I've said it many times, don't you remember?" His eyes were a little red, slowly moistened, leaned down, and buried his face in my long hair: "Remember, I remember." ”
I was hesitant to tell him about the fact that Yu Xuanji entrusted me to deliver a token to him, but now looking at his appearance, I think I don't want to, he doesn't have such a heart, why should I mention that person's name to stab his heart.
He kept rubbing my hair, his face was buried in his long hair, and I smiled: "Brother Nian, I'm lying on the bed, I haven't washed my hair for a long time, look at your face oily." He raised his head and said with a smile: "This is the taste of the lady herself." And he said, "Lie down and let them take good care of you, and don't always pamper others." ”
I looked at his eyes and regained the appearance of a sika deer, and I was in a relaxed mood, and I stroked his long hair hanging down to his chest with my hand, and retorted casually: "Where do I have a pampered subordinate!" He smiled helplessly: "You don't pamper people, you lie down and don't talk about washing your hair, shouldn't they think about it themselves?" Do you have to do everything you are told? ”
I hurriedly said, "Didn't you say you can't move casually?" How dare they toss and wash my hair? His childish expression resurfaced, and he looked aggrieved: "How can you speak for others so much?" I said that you were all yelling and protecting anyone who was bad, but I didn't see you protecting me. I sighed and said, "Because you don't need me to protect them, they are different, you don't like them anymore, one word can kill you, how can I not protect them?" ”
He smiled: "My lady has the best heart." "I want to say it and stop talking. I saw that he didn't say anything, he looked ashamed and embarrassed, and he had a bad premonition in his heart, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Is there anything you want to tell me? He hesitated, and finally said, "Look, hasn't the Qingqing Dance Club been seized?" Mr. Mu also died. Seeing him carefully weigh his words, I said, "You have something to say." ”
He said, "That's right, do you remember the girl next to Mr. Mu?" Don't like to talk. "He mentions girls, and he talks so much, I know what he wants to do. My heart is sour and bitter, why is this person like this? just confessed affectionately, and then proposed to find a woman. I didn't bother to think about the girl next to Mr. Mu, so I turned to face the wall and ignored him.
He continued behind me: "I know I shouldn't mention this at this time for you, it's just that she really has nowhere to go, and I don't look good after all if I keep her outside." I sneered: "There are a large number of girls in the Qingqing Dance Club, you can take them all back, and it's okay for our family to raise a class of kabuki." I turned around in hatred, "I have felt that something is wrong with you since I came back, and I asked you if you still don't admit it." ”
