Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Secret Letter
Qing Shui didn't know Chang Gui's identity, except that he knew that he was the one who served by Beiqi's side.
"The villain is the godson of Lord Gongzhu, and he is the current Grand Duke of the Northern Qi Palace."
When Qing Shui heard the word 'Gong Zhu', the whole person froze.
"Whether it was before the godfather died, or when Beiqi was young, he said a lot of things at that time when he was avoiding danger in those years, and the name of Lord Qingshui is actually not a stranger to the villain. The villain is grateful to Lord Qingshui in his heart, and he is grateful to the adult for being by his godfather's side at that time and protecting his father's safety. I am grateful to the Lord for guarding the Northern Qi at that time and leaving this only bloodline for the Northern Qi Kingdom. The villain is kowtowing to the adults here, thank you. ”
Qing Shui didn't stop Qing Shui's movements anymore, and his two hands still kept their original appearance unchanged. Qing Shui looked at Chang Gui who was kneeling in front of him, and his face became very complicated.
Chang Gui didn't mean to get up, on the contrary, it looked like a posture that couldn't be kneeled for a long time.
Qing Shui looked at Chang Gui who was kneeling for a while, and then walked back to his arrogance. Immediately, a little eunuch next to him wanted to come over and help Chang Gui up, but Chang Gui waved his hand.
"I already know my father-in-law's intentions, my father-in-law can get up, we are old, we will die if we kneel for a while."
Chang Gui then took the hand of the little eunuch next to him and stood up from the ground.
"At that time, Lord Gongzhu also treated us very well, and we all acted according to orders, so my father-in-law didn't have to thank us too much."
Chang Gui smiled and wanted to say something more, but he heard Qing Shui continue,
"But I'm thinking about it now, how good it would have been if that kid from Northern Qi had died at that time. If Northern Qi dies at that time, the only bloodline of Northern Qi will be gone, and sooner or later there will be no Northern Qi Kingdom. Sooner or later, it will be our Qingguo, and it will still be like this. ”
Chang Gui's face became ugly, he didn't say anything about the name of Northern Qi directly, and even said such a big rebellious thing.
"But these things are in the past, are you right, father-in-law?"
Chang Gui's expression was very ugly. Still squeezed out a smile and nodded,
"Yes."
"Now, though, the only thing I'm thinking about. It's Princess Qixin. I think that Princess Qixin also had a good time with Northern Qi when she was a child, and I still hope that my father-in-law can help Princess Qixin a lot, and don't let the princess be hurt lightly. ”
Changgui bends down and salutes,
"It's nature."
"Let's go."
Qing Shui gave an order, and the arrogant chariot was lifted up, and gradually moved away from Chang Gui's sight.
Chang Gui's face gradually darkened,
"No one is allowed to talk about today's events, and you all know the consequences."
"Yes, sir."
Chang Gui looked at the staggering arrogance that was far away. His eyes gradually became ruthless, and the expression on his face changed to a more hideous sneer.
"Hmph, I'm dying, my mouth is still so powerful."
After Chang Gui said this, he turned around and returned to the Northern Qi Palace with a stroke of his sleeves.
The young man standing at the corner of the street had been quietly watching this qiē, looking at the palace gate that was gradually closing, and then looking at the arrogance that was about to disappear in his sight, and after hesitating for a while, he still followed closely.
Qing Shui, who was sitting arrogantly, opened his palm, unfolded the note that Qi Xin stuffed into his hand, and then clenched his fists tightly after reading it. Qing Shui closed his eyes, recalled Chang Gui's actions just now, and smiled.
How could Qing Shui not understand what Chang Gui's actions meant, if they would meet again one day sooner or later. And why rush to thank him for a while?
"It seems that I can't go back to Qingguo."
Qing Shui unfolded his palm, and the palm of his hand was a ball of paper that was about to be soaked with sweat. Qing Shui cautiously unfolded the paper ball, and tears fell after reading the simple content.
Qing Shui is now constantly blaming in his heart, blaming the person for his own incompetence. blaming himself for being useless, in the end he didn't do anything. Qing Shui insisted on this, and the tears that did not fall in the prison finally slipped down his cheeks. The person who followed the pride may have heard something,
"My lord, is there something wrong?"
Qing Shui worked hard to stabilize his own feelings, and said calmly to the outside.
"It's fine."
The few people who were marching did not stop, Qing Shui put away the letters, clenched them tightly in his hands and gritted his teeth and looked ahead. Qing Shui silently swore in his heart that he would not disappoint Princess Qixin's hard work.
The young man also seemed to be extremely skilled, and with the strength of one person, it didn't seem to be much effort to follow the arrogance closely. Not far away, not close, although you can't hear the conversation, but you can see the figure clearly, and the most important thing is that it is not noticed.
Although Chang Gui had given the order and was not in a hurry, the speed of the march was also extremely fast, and there was no sign of stopping even after it was already deep. The young man who had been following closely began to sink down, and kept muttering in his heart. He just saw this scene by chance, just to find out who the people in the pride were, and just wanted to know what the people in the pride had to do with the Northern Qi Palace. He still had his own things to do, and it was already the limit to follow him here, and he had to rush back before dawn.
Just when the young man hesitated to sneak forward to observe and see if there was any result, the arrogance in front also stopped.
The young man lay quietly on the tree, concentrating on the people who had come down from the pride of the pride.
"My lord, it's getting late, let's rest here."
After the arrogant man stopped, he couldn't hear the movement of the green water in the dumplings for a long time, and the person closest to the arrogant finally couldn't help but ask softly. But there was still no sound from inside, and the curtain was motionless. Several people exchanged glances with each other, and one by one they quietly pulled out their swords.
All of a sudden, the already uninhabited quiet woods became even more eerie, and everyone, including the young people hiding in the shadows, held their breath.
The soldier who was originally questioning carefully moved to the side of the arrogant man step by step, and let out a hand to gently lift the curtain.
"Ahh
In just an instant, the soldier who had lifted the curtain had already fallen to the ground with a cry of pain. The others all heard the wind and waved their knives close to the arrogant.
The young man leaned a little far, and couldn't see the moves of several people clearly, thinking that the person in the arrogant chariot was alone and should be at a disadvantage now, but a closer look was the opposite. Several sabber-armed soldiers fought each other, and the man whose face could not be seen easily dodged. Seeing this, the more the young man looked at it, the more he felt that the figure of that person was very familiar. Although he couldn't remember who it was, the young man quickly approached.
"Hmph, what did your master tell you!"
After all, Qingshui's body lì couldn't keep up with the amount of activity, and it had already begun to shake after a few moves. (To be continued.) )
