Chapter 22: The Dragon King's Hint
"Hmm." Jiuyue replied in a low voice, knowing very well that none of these things could be blamed on him, and then smiled bitterly, "You're drunk, I'll help you go to rest." ”
Long Qi didn't reply, his eyes were slightly closed, obviously drunk, Jiuyue lowered his head and stroked his messy hair, and said to himself with a sad face.
"Brother Qi, do you know? I didn't blame you at all, nor did I hate you, but the fact that your father used Xin Mozhi to force me to marry you has always made me unable to accept you, and you know that I am only a brother and sister to you, but you still fantasize that I will fall in love with you. ”
"Sometimes I really think you're so stupid, so stupid, you know I don't want to hurt you, but you're still pressing step by step, I was happy when my moss was stolen, but then there were more worries, and now I really don't know what to do."
……………………
After a while, Jiuyue settled him down, and just as he was about to leave, he happened to meet the oncoming old dragon king, and Jiuyue hurriedly half-squatted and saluted.
"Nine Moons, participate in the Dragon King."
"No courtesy." The old dragon king waved his hand and said, "How is Qi'er now?" ”
"Back to the Dragon King, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has slept peacefully now, please don't worry about the Dragon King." Jiuyue replied strictly, staring at the ground.
"Hmm." The Dragon King nodded and replied, "Since Qi'er has rested, this king has a few words to say, I wonder if Yue'er is free now?" ”
Jiuyue smiled faintly, and curtsied his knees, "Back to the Dragon King, Jiuyue happens to be free, if the Dragon King has anything to say, just listen to it." ”
"Okay, then let's borrow a step." The dragon king said with great satisfaction, stroking the dragon's beard with one hand and turning around and walking forward with a smile, Jiuyue followed behind with a stern face, and probably guessed what the dragon king wanted to say to her.
After a while, the Dragon King led her to the courtyard of a coral reef and sat down, and said with a smile, "Yue'er, do you think the coral reef here is beautiful?" ”
Jiuyue didn't understand the meaning of the Dragon King's words, so she had to nod and say, "Beautiful." ”
"And how long do you think the coral reefs here will be beautiful?" The Dragon King continued to ask, a smile flashing in his eyes, now that he had broken through it so clearly, it was impossible for her clever mind not to understand what he meant.
Jiuyue was silent when he heard his question, he understood the meaning of the Dragon King's words, the purpose was to tell her that things in beauty were just moments of beauty, and if there was no support, no one would appreciate them even in beauty.
Seeing that she understood what he meant, the Dragon King then spoke, "Yue'er, I believe that you are a smart girl, and now that Xin Mozhi has been stolen by gangsters, this king promises you that he will not let your mother have an accident." ”
"Then Jiuyue will thank the Dragon King here for my mother first." Jiuyue said calmly, without a trace of waves in her eyes.
Now she is a fish on a sticky board, to be slaughtered, she is still obedient except to obey the words of the dragon king, she can't take her mother's life as a bet, because she can't afford to lose.
"Huh." The Dragon King smiled, stroked his beard and sighed, "Yue'er, your mother can give birth to such a filial daughter as you, it's really a blessing, it's not too late now, you should go back and rest early, so as not to worry your mother." ”
"Thank you Dragon King for your understanding, then Jiuyue retired first." Jiuyue thanked him, then got up, and turned around and left the courtyard with an expressionless face.
The dragon king just stood there and stroked the dragon's whiskers, looking at her departing back with deep eyes, and left for a while.
It was already the time for Jiuyue to return to Chongju, and Qiuyu, who was standing at the door of Chongju, stepped forward excitedly the moment she saw her coming.
"Miss, why did you go for so long to come back, but I'm worried about the dead autumn fish."
Jiuyue smiled, stroked her hair and said, "I'm such a big person, what's there to worry about, you must be tired after waiting for me for so long, let's go into the house and rest." ”
"Okay." Autumn Fish smiled happily and stepped into the silver house with one hand on her arm.
Water Snake Cave Mansion, when Hua Jing learned the news of Jiuyue's return to Chongju from the guards, her whole face was distorted, her eyes were fierce as if she was going to eat people, and the guards who knelt on the ground on one knee were afraid to make a sound by the cold air that she exuded, and the whole room was quiet and could hear the sound of breathing.
After a while, Hua Jing stood up from the soft couch, walked slowly in front of the guard, and said coldly, "You go down first." ”
"Yes, master." The guard said gratefully, and hurriedly withdrew.
Hua Jing looked at the back of the guard leaving, and said with a gloomy look, "Slut, since you voluntarily came back to find torture, then it's no wonder that my Hua Jing is ruthless." ”
The next day, at noon, Hua Jing appeared again at the door of the silver house in purple clothes, and she stepped forward and knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened, and as soon as Qiu Yu saw her, she frowned and asked, "Flower girl, do you have anything to do with coming to Chongju?" ”
"Oh, it's fine." Hua Jing said pretly, "It's just that I haven't seen Sister Jiuyue for a long time, and I suddenly miss her, and I bother Sister Qiuyu to help me inform her, so I said that Hua Jing is looking for her It's a trivial matter." ”
"Flower girl, I'm really sorry, because my young lady came back late last night, so she is taking a nap now, and the slave doesn't dare to disturb her." Qiu Yu refused with a smile, in her opinion, this Huajing has nothing to do and will not go to the Three Treasures Palace, and it will be no good thing to come to Chongju, so it is better not to see it.
Hua Jing was a little choked by her words, even though she guessed in her heart that she would eat a closed door when she came to Chongju, but when she really met her, she was still very unhappy in her heart, but she always kept a smile on her face.
"Since that's the case, then Hua Jing won't bother."
Saying this, Hua Jing paused, lowered her head and took out a letter from her cuff and handed it to Qiuyu's hand, and then said with a smile.
"Then please ask Sister Qiuyu to help me give this letter to Sister Jiuyue, presumably she will naturally know my intention after reading it."
Qiu Yu pinched the letter she handed over, and replied lightly, "Flower girl, please rest assured, Qiu Yu will transfer the letter to Miss." ”
"Then I'll thank Sister Qiuyu here, excuse me." After saying that, Hua Jing turned around and left.
Hua Jing left the building, Qiu Yu stood at the door of the mansion and looked at the envelope in her hand, just wanted to open it to see, but when she thought that this was Hua Jing's letter to Miss, if she read Miss's letter, wouldn't it be out of bounds, so in the end she still held back, didn't open the letter, and closed the door of the house.
"Miss, Miss......."
Jiuyue, who was sitting in a daze in the backyard, heard Qiuyu's voice, turned her head to look behind her, and saw Qiuyu running towards her in a hurry.
