Chapter 109: Confrontation
I didn't expect Jiang Yunxiu to come so quickly, Ding Xiang didn't have half a pillar of incense before he left, and he came.
And I was sent to the bedroom by Lingyun to rest, I wanted to warm my legs and sleep well, but Jiang Yunxiu came. I can't let him see the tiredness of my sleepless night, because although I insist on it, I know very well in my heart that he has his responsibilities as a courtier, a prince, and a younger brother. Even if he himself is unwilling to deal with Ding Xiang, if he really receives such an imperial order, he may not be able to do it. Just like now, I am also burdened with the heavy responsibility of the Ding lineage, and the "Yun Shiji" was able to save him at a critical moment, but it also gave me the heaviest burden.
After Ding Xiang left, I once asked Ling Yun why Ding Xiang thought that everything was arranged by His Royal Highness, and never doubted the emperor. Because in my opinion, without the acquiescence of the emperor, Jiang Yunlin would not dare to do this at all. Ling Yun smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, Xiangye doesn't know." It's just that he can't directly conflict with the emperor now, and the emperor doesn't want to directly embarrass the emperor, so everything is for His Royal Highness to take action...... Xiangye now just hopes that the young lady can protect the third young master and help the third young master. "Ling Yun sent me back to the room, and I disappeared, I think I should have arranged for Ding Xiang to go out of the city.
As soon as I fell asleep, Lan Ling reported that the general was coming. I had to hurriedly change my clothes, tidy up my makeup, and ask Lan Ling and Ah Qiao to help me to the living room and sit down. Jiang Yunxiu couldn't wait to come in.
When I saw him, I tried to pretend that nothing happened: "Brother Jiu came so early. ”
Jiang Yunxiu also said gently: "I disturbed Qingqing's dream, but I was abrupt." ”
I sneered. said: "When did Brother Jiu also start talking to me on such a scene? Sounds fake. Brother Jiu, what's the matter with coming so early, let's talk about it. "As soon as I heard his opening remarks, I knew he was suspicious of me, and I wanted to make a false deal with him. But as soon as I heard his words, I got goosebumps all over my body. I don't want to lie to him, and I don't want to fake it.
Jiang Yunxiu was slightly stunned, probably didn't expect me to say this. But after a moment's pause, he quickly returned to normal, and he put away his smile. Zhengse said: "Since Qingqing doesn't like to beat around the bush, then I'll get straight to the point." Where is Ding Xiang? ”
It's too straightforward, I don't change the description on my face. smiled: "Why did Brother Jiu ask me?" Not with me anyway. This sentence really didn't lie to him, Ding Xiang is indeed not here.
Jiang Yunxiu's eyes were full of deep inquiry, I knew that he didn't believe me, and asked, "Brother Jiu, do you need to search?" ”
Jiang Yunxiu said with a smile: "Actually, I was looking for Ding Xiang just to confirm his safety. Now you say that he is not there. So of course I believe you, so why bother? ”
"Liar." I secretly said in my heart, and then smiled bitterly, now that our identities are opposite, I want to not deceive, not fake, but it is impossible.
Noticing the change in my face, he asked, "What's wrong?" I smiled and shook my head. Said: "Brother Jiu, you tell me." But what happened to my father? Why did you come to him like this? If you do find him, what will you do? ”
Jiang Yunxiu's eyes looked into the distance, I thought that maybe he hadn't thought about these questions properly, maybe he had thought about them but didn't dare to admit it to me, because the answer might be too cruel.
He didn't speak, and I smiled: "Forget it, Brother Jiu didn't ask me." Maybe...... Maybe that's not what I want to know. ”
Jiang Yunxiu didn't say anything, and he really didn't answer my question, which made my heart sink to the deepest.
After a long time, Jiang Yunxiu slowly moved his gaze back to me and asked slowly, "I also have a question for you." ”
I nodded, "You ask." ”
He seemed to be organizing the language, and only after a while did he ask, "Actually, you knew that your father was coming, so you came to me, right?" ”
I didn't understand, "Huh? "Yes.
As if he had made up his mind, he said, "You have gone so desperately that day, saying that you have no real feelings for me at all, and that you are only fresh, exciting, and grateful to me." Why did you come back to me later? Is it because you know that your father is coming, and you are afraid that I will be unfavorable to him, so you come to me with all the begging and hypocrisy towards me? ”
I felt a pain in my chest that was about to crack, and I kept thinking: Ding Muqing, how many more times do you have to be trampled on to be sincere? Why do you believe in someone every time they are nice to you and smile at you?
I pursed my lips and didn't speak, my eyes staring straight at Jiang Yunxiu. He didn't shy away from my eyes, probably thinking that I didn't speak because my heart was weak.
"I thought ......," I thought for a moment before speaking slowly, "I thought that I would see very clearly whether I was true or false to you, as smart as a general; I thought that the general had already understood my intentions, but I didn't expect the general to understand it until now? Hahaha, it's ridiculous. It turns out that Ding Xiang actually needs his daughter to compromise and be hypocritical in order to save his life? Hahaha...... "I kept laughing, but I couldn't hide my sadness, I couldn't hide my anger, and the stuffiness in my chest seemed to burst out, "It's so funny, the general also has times when he was deceived......" The mouth was stubborn, but the tears were suppressed and flowed......
"General, you can't wronged Miss like this, in fact, ......" Lan Ling was anxious on the side, how could she see me so sad?
"Shut up!" I yelled at her and said, "Don't argue, what's there to argue?" Since the general has already convicted me, it is difficult to explain it...... What is willing to hold the king's hand, what is the biological son slowly growing old, dare to ask a general, you didn't lie to me?"
"I ......", he was speechless for a while, and was silent for a long time before he said again: "I blamed you wrongly, but I still have to find Ding Xiang's whereabouts." ”
I tried my best to say a sentence: "Don't bother you, my father was frightened by the attack and has already returned to Beijing." You go too, I don't want to see you again. ”
Jiang Yunxiu looked at me, stopped talking, and finally sighed and turned to leave.
I stood up with my chair and thought to myself: It's good to go, it's good to go, he doesn't have to be in a dilemma because of the emperor's order, and I don't have to watch him feel uncomfortable anymore. The royal family and the Ding family will have a fight in the end.
Watching his back get farther and farther away, and finally there was no turning back, I couldn't help but feel sad. I only felt that his heart was getting farther and farther away from me, and I seemed to see Merlin on that winter night again, and he said: In the future, I will laugh from my heart only for you; He said: I don't have Ancheng in my heart, there is no country, there is no Wanyan Bing, only you; He said, "You will always protect me...... The smoke is gone, and it is gone with the wind...... When I think about it, I can't remember anything......
The stuffiness in my chest seemed to have finally found an outlet, a tingling pain, a sweet throat, and finally a mouthful of blood spit out, my eyes were dark, and I fell to the ground, and before closing my eyes, I seemed to see him running over, full of anxiety. (To be continued......)
