Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Old Friends Meet (2)
Although she said this with a lot of laughter, it made Naki pale in the face.
Tillian didn't seem to notice her panic, and even took a step closer to her with a smile, but Naki staggered back as she approached like a femme fatale.
Seeing her react like this, Tillian smiled with interest and bent her eyebrows, "You don't have to be so flustered, even if you have ever thought of breaking the covenant, or have done something that violates the covenant, after all, it is out of the nature of self-preservation, I can tolerate it for now, but, at this point, do you have anything to hide from me?" You must tell me quickly, or if he is found out by me in person, you know that although I am kind, I will never be soft. ”
Na Ji was not only pale at the moment, but even couldn't suppress the fear and trembled slightly, she only felt that her throat was dry, and she whispered in a trembling voice for a while, "Didn't you guess, I was in contact with Li Qi and Li Qi." ”
Yun Shili pursed his lips slightly when he heard this, his deep sea-like peach blossom eyes seemed to sink out of the abyss, and his tone was flat and slow, "Jade Concubine Niangniang, I remember that when I helped you enter the palace that day, you promised that there would be no two hearts, could it be that the Rongguo Mansion Zuo Xiangfu and the Yunhou Mansion were not enough to help you rise to the top?" ”
Naji flinched and took half a step back, shook her head vigorously and said in a low voice, "It was Li Qi who found me, and Xie Hengxu had already lost his position at that time, and I was feeling uneasy, so I was moved by him." At this point, she looked up at Di Lian, who was smiling and silent, and said at a loss, "Now I know that it's you, we have a covenant first, so naturally I won't believe in Li Qi anymore, you believe me." ”
Tillian didn't care about her panic, whether she found Li Qi first, or Li Qi found her first, she just nodded with a smile in her eyes, and said in a low voice, "I remember I said that what you want is not enough to achieve in Li Qi, because his road to wealth is not far away, remember?" ”
Naki pursed her lips and nodded vigorously, trembling, "I remember, I remember." ”
"Naki, it's still the same sentence, if I can help you, I can destroy you. You only have one life, but if I don't have your help in the palace, I can still cultivate countless 'jade concubines', you know? ”
"I know."
"Well, it's good to know. Don't be afraid, I'm not threatening you, I'm a businessman, I like to talk about business, and now I give you a lot of bargaining chips, and I want to get enough rewards in the future, and you have to believe that no one expects you to reach a high position more than me. As long as you are still thinking about our covenant, I can help you reach any height you can think of. ”
"I believe in you." Naki smiled dryly and bowed her head slightly, "I will never contact Li Qi again in the future." ”
"Nope." , Tillian shook her head lightly, smiled lightly and whispered, "You still have to contact him, and continue to make him think that you are still working with him." ”
Naki was stunned when she heard this, her dark blue phoenix eyes dimmed slightly, "I know, if he has anything to say, I will send someone to pass it on to you." ”
Yun Shili spoke again at this time, "Jade Concubine Niangniang, although Ah Lian can trust you, I have to think about it, whether to send another trustworthy person into the palace, I still need to look at your watch again." ”
Naji smiled bitterly and said in a low voice, "Okay, I won't disappoint Yunhou." ”
"In addition." , Di Liandai's eyebrows moved slightly, looked at her eyes quietly, and whispered, "Regarding the changes in Zixu, I want to know, what suspicious things have you heard about when you are by Emperor An's side?" ”
Yun Shili was stunned when he heard this, Na Ji was also a little stunned, shook her head slightly for a moment, and said in a low voice, "When it comes to business, the emperor never lets me accompany me. It's just that Li Qi found me a few days ago, saying that Jiang Dilian, who the emperor has been looking for, has returned to Beijing, Xie Hengxu has become stupid now, and the emperor is very confident that sooner or later he will bring you into the palace, and I am afraid that the marriage between the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion and the Rongguo Mansion will not be successful. ”
Di Lian didn't pay attention to this, but said lightly, "You don't need to take Emperor An's thoughts to me, there are two most important things at the moment, one is to give birth to a dragon heir, and the other is Zixu's illness, since you can't find out from Emperor An, you might as well try to work Li Qi." At this point, Tillian looked sideways at Naki's abdomen and mused, "You should, you haven't conceived a dragon yet, have you?" ”
Nagi's pale face flew with two unnatural reds, and she lowered her eyes and shook her head gently.
Tilian Dai raised her eyebrows slightly, and said indifferently, "You should know, whether you can give birth to a prince is also an important bargaining chip for you, you need this child, and I need it too." ”
Naki bit her lip and muttered, "I know." ”
"In this matter, let's let Luo Jia think of a way to go back." , Yun Shili opened his mouth clearly, looked at Di Lian and said with a light smile, "You don't have to bother, it's Zixu's illness, how did he think of it related to Emperor An." ”
"That day, the sister-in-law family wanted to capture Zixu alive, so they wanted to kill him completely, except for Emperor An, but he didn't want him to die in the end, but instructed the Nan Miao people to save him, I always felt a little strange. Naji, no matter what method you use in this matter, you must find out something from Li Qi's mouth. ”
"Okay, don't worry, once there is news, I will do my best to pass it on to you."
"It's not early." , Yun Shili glanced at the sky and said in a clear voice, "We should go back, Yu Concubine Niangniang first." ”
Na Ji left first with a complicated expression, and Tilian and Yun Shili waited in place for a while, before they left the rockery forest one after the other and went to the flower hall where the night banquet was located.
"Has my dad ever been out?" , Tillian suddenly asked.
Hailan's eyes blinked slightly, and Yun Shili looked sideways at her calm side face, "No, Uncle Auntie has always accompanied Aunt Auntie, eats tea and walks around the garden every day, and occasionally goes to the study to read books, only Aunt Changye **** has to go out, and sometimes he doesn't come back at night." ”
Tilian pursed her lips slightly, and said lightly, "In two days, I should take Zixu to see my father again." ”
Seeing that she called 'Dad' so naturally, Yun Shili couldn't help but sigh a few times for Jiang Luoxiu.
"Speaking of Zixu, you came out today and left him alone in the mansion, maybe you can rest assured?"
"No problem." , Tillian shook her head helplessly, and smiled weakly, "Luo Jia has fried the medicine that can make you sleepy, and when he wakes up, I will already be back home." ”
At this point, she paused, her eyes were on the noisy lights, and she suddenly paused to look at Yun Shili, "The Yun family is full of power, and the old marquis also traveled to Tiannan and Haibei when he was in power, what anecdotes have he left behind?" The Yun family has been all over the mainland for generations, and it must be well-informed, even if the old marquis has never left, presumably the ancestors of the past have also recorded.
Yun Shili pursed his lips slightly, looked at her quietly and said, "What do you want to ask?" ”
Di Lian pondered for a moment and said in a low voice, "Records about the Gu art of the Nan Miao people. ”
Yun Shili lowered his eyes slightly when he heard this, and sighed lowly, "When Zixu was taken back to Beijing that day, I vaguely heard the rumors, and I had rummaged through all kinds of anecdotes and miscellaneous records in my grandfather's study. ”
Di Lian lowered her eyes with some disappointment, "I won't tell you, Shili, I always feel that Zixu's current appearance is inseparable from the Gu technique of the Nan Miao people, that soul suppression Gu really makes people have to be suspicious, since it is a rare one in a hundred years, why would the Nan Miao people use such a precious thing to save a Xia Lan general who has never known him?" ”
"It seems that you don't fully trust that brute, either." , Yun Shili was relieved, and gently bowed his head, "I had some suspicions, but I didn't have the opportunity to get close to Zixu before, so I couldn't check it out." ”
"Luo Jia once said that no matter what kind of mind Manxi has, even if she is for that Gu worm, she will not attack Zixu, so I can let her stay by her side, which will startle the snake."
"You're doing it right, about the matter of the Soul Suppression Gu, I thought that you still need to send someone to go deep into the Nanmiao tribe to check it out in person."
"Well, this matter is urgent, as soon as we find out the Mou Chou of the Soul Suppression Gu, Zixu's illness will have a base as soon as possible, I will discuss with my eldest cousin and arrange for the Xie family to go to Nanmiao." , the people next to her can't say, but Xie Hengyuan will definitely help her secretly.
"Okay, I'll send some people here, we will divide into two ways, and if we encounter an accident, we can take care of each other." , Yun Shili said that the cloud is clear and the wind is light, as if he should be so concerned.
For some reason, Tillian looked at her gentle side face and felt uncomfortable.
The night breeze gently blew the two people walking side by side, and the hair scattered on their shoulders was tangled lightly.
Tillian's words were a little lower, "Shili, thank you. ”
She said this suddenly, which made Yun Shili a little surprised, he stopped and turned to look at Tilian, under the bright light, she lowered her eyebrows, her beautiful face was quiet and soft, and a little powerlessness and gratitude appeared.
"Ah Lian, why do you thank me?" , Xiujun's eyebrows frowned, and Yun Shili was a little displeased.
Di Lian smiled lightly, "I should thank you, you have done too much for me, I promised the old marquis that he would take care of you, but all along, you are bothering about my affairs." ”
Yun Shili sighed in his heart, shook his head and said, "Why didn't you take care of me?" My grandfather died of illness when I was most helpless, and you were with you when I was most helpless, and you took the risk to resist the will to save the Yun family. Maybe these are not so difficult for you to do, but for me Yun Shili and the Yun family, it is already a kindness in the world. What's more, I believe that in the future, you will help the Yun family to help me do more. Saying more, Yun Shili suddenly smiled, "Look at me, I was dizzy by you, between you and me, how can you use the word 'thanks', if you mention such words again in the future, you will treat me as an outsider." ”
Tillian was moved, and he said that what she did for him was kindness in the world; But what did he do for her?
"It's amazing, gentle and virtuous Yunhou, since you're going to lose your temper today." Tillian said with a smile and changed the conversation.
Yun Shili couldn't cry or laugh, "It's you, who can provoke others and I have a temper." (To be continued.) )
