Chapter 61: An Inch of Blood Makes an Inch of Mountain
Although Longcheng is not big, if you really want to change the whole picture, it is not something that can be done in just a few days, so the strength of the officers and soldiers alone is far from enough, and even Qingcheng thought deeply, so Du Tianyi called on all the people to work together to save the city.
"Su Yu Gongzi, Yoyo Kyushu, do you have a place you want to go?"
During the lunch break, Du Tianyi and Lian Qingcheng stood under the porridge shed to give alms to the people, he looked at the man's attentive appearance, and couldn't take his eyes off for a while.
Lian Qingcheng smiled and scooped a bowl of lotus leaf porridge for the old man standing opposite, nodded and said: "The body is determined by the heart, the heart is determined by the feelings, where my love is, I will go, otherwise, no matter how big the world is, it will only be a drop in the ocean in my eyes." ”
Du Tian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly curled the corners of his eyebrows, "The woman who can be liked by Su Yu Gongzi should be a happy person." ”
Lian Qingcheng held the spoon for a moment, and shook his head disapprovingly, "It's not enough, the person I fall in love with should be the envy of the whole world." ”
Du Tian was slightly shocked on his face, he didn't expect that this delicate-looking young master Baiyu was actually an infatuated species, but thinking of his various actions in the past few days, he felt that this was indeed something he would do, his eyebrows and eyes were lightened by the world, but he valued one person alone, he also heard the sound of the flute last night, although he was very tired, but the thick lovesickness in the flute made him unable to sleep for a long time.
"Ahem".
The two were stunned, and suddenly there was an intermittent coughing sound behind them, and even Qingcheng Shui looked at him, handed the spoon to the officers and soldiers beside him, walked over and patted the man's back gently, and frowned on his pulse: "It's windy today, the eldest brother is just in good health, I'll let you have a good rest in the hotel, you are disobedient, now it's okay, I'm afraid I'm going to be infected with the wind and cold." ”
Lian Qingliu smiled with a white face, looked at her and said: "I know how my body is, my eldest brother is always a person who practices martial arts, how can he be so easy to catch the wind and cold, you haven't had a good rest since you came, I'm afraid you won't be able to hold on." ”
Lian Qingcheng's face straightened, and he said angrily: "It's just a small matter, how can it fall so easily, and I don't even have the dungeon in Dachang."
"Big brother knows that you are powerful, and you can't be sure how to speak."
Lian Qingliu suddenly opened his mouth to take what she didn't finish, touched her head dotingly, looked at the somewhat unfamiliar face, and sighed in his heart, she said that everything was arranged, but she didn't expect her to arrange it like this, he naturally heard about the dissatisfaction of the people in the city with him yesterday, although she didn't say it, but he knew that she was unhappy, since Du Tianyi was not the only one in the city who suspected that he was not poisoned, he came out to let them see, and the rumors would naturally be self-defeating.
Lian Qingcheng pursed his lips and quietly stuck out his tongue at him, "I know, the next time I speak, I must go through my brain first." ”
"Hehe, it's good to know in your heart, are you tired? Sit here and take a break. ”
"Not tired", Lian Qingcheng shook his head, lifted the blanket on his body, covered his whole body and said with a smile: "You see, others are still in summer, and the eldest brother is already preparing for winter." ”
"Yes, but fortunately, with you by my eldest brother's side, I don't feel cold anymore."
Lian Qingliu moistened a pair of beautiful eyes, he used to be an elegant son, but now lying here, the sickness added a bit of morbid beauty to his whole person.
The people standing on the side saw it, and they were fascinated for a while, even the first day the prince came, they had met once, although the distance was not far at that time, but they always felt that there was a cold air on his body, which made people dare not approach, but today's feeling was completely different, they couldn't help but be attracted by this jade-faced man, they couldn't say what was flowing on his body, but he could touch his heart when he looked at it.
Lian Qingcheng's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "I heard that Chengnan also hit a large lotus, but fortunately it was not affected by the flood, and when the eldest brother is better and Longcheng is almost recovered, let's go and see how it is?" ”
"Okay, as long as you like it and do whatever you want, the big brother depends on you."
Time goes back and forth, more than ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, and many unexpected things can happen in half a month, such as the emperor never said anything about the poisoning, such as Liu Hanyu's child was not saved after being saved by Shen Yanzhi, for example, Ruan Fangyao's maid Sang'er was found that she died silently in her room, for example, the feather horse spy placed in Dragon City was caught by Liu Muxian's secret guard before Lian Qingcheng arrived, and no one survived
Lian Qingcheng put down the last letter in his hand, rubbed his temples tiredly, his hands clenched into fists, and his whole body exuded a terrifying aura.
The reason why the emperor did not track down the murderer of the poison should have known something, maybe the poison was caused by himself at all, after all, he and Princess Ronghua had a husband and wife, and some things must have been known, or perhaps, he deliberately shielded the murderer; And Liu Hanyu's child, she expected that she would not survive early on, and being able to stay in the mother's body for so long can be regarded as creation, but with the emperor's thoughts, the person he wants to establish a prince is not Feng Guiyu at all, so how can he allow the prince to leave an heir first, the emperor's family always values the country rather than blood kinship; As for Sang'er, she twisted her eyebrows, after leaving that day, Shen Yanzhi left a prescription for Ruan Fangyao, why did Sang'er die, I'm afraid Ruan Fangyao is the one who knows best
Lian Qingcheng suddenly felt a trace of disgust in his heart, disgusted with those masked people in Beijing, disgusted with her being stuck in a quagmire but unable to extricate herself, if it weren't for the sake of the phoenix returning to evil
Phoenix thought of that person, her eyes gradually softened, covered with a thick lovesickness, is he okay now?
I haven't seen him for many days, and I don't feel like anything when I don't think about it, but the door of memories suddenly opens, and the thoughts in my heart come up like a clear spring, and I can't stop it.
"The way you look, can I think you're thinking of me?"
A familiar voice suddenly came from the room, she was shocked, staggered to stand up and turned around, the person was dressed in brocade and jade belt, leaning lazily on the door frame, looking at her with slanted raccoon eyes and warmth, with a warm smile on the corner of his mouth.
Lian Qingcheng shook his head, closed his eyes and opened them again, seeing that he was still standing there, he was excited for a while, and said in a daze: "I'm not dreaming, right?" ”
There was a low laugh at the door, Feng Guixie closed the door and walked towards her, grabbed her waist with both hands and hugged her into his arms, his eyes looked at her from head to toe, lowered his head slightly, and his thin lips pressed against her cherry petals.
Lian Qingcheng only felt that her mind was blank, her whole body was fluttering, and the feeling of being too unreal was shrouded, she closed her eyes and muttered: "It turned out to be really a dream."
Feng Guixie's eyebrows closed, the strength in his hand tightened, and he suddenly opened his mouth to bite her red lips.
Lian Qingcheng suddenly felt pain, and wanted to push him away with a light "hiss", but he hugged her tightly, Feng Guixie lowered his head, lazily attached to her neck socket, and said with a charming voice in his mouth, "Now, is it still a dream?" ”
Even Qingcheng trembled, only to feel that his whole body weight was on him, his eyes softened, something came out, she was stunned and reached out to hug him, and kept calling him.
"Phoenix, Phoenix, Phoenix, I miss you so much."
"I know, so, I'm here."
He thought he could wait until she went back, but after all, he couldn't resist missing her, and he had never loved her less.
The night is sleepless, the full moon is fluttering, thousands of strands of silk are cocooned in the wind, a song of affection, even if you look back for a thousand years, this life will never be tireless.
Lian Qingcheng thought about it, there was no heart-wrenching alliance between them, and there was no silent and thoughtful trickle, but as long as she thought of him, he would appear by her side so coincidentally, this feeling made her feel at ease, how could she be reluctant not to take him to heart.
After complaining to her heart, she remembered what was going on, looked at him distressedly and asked, "Why did you suddenly come to Dragon City, could it be that something big happened in Kyoto?" ”
Feng Guixie gently held her hand in his palm and stroked it carefully, and chuckled: "Didn't Su Yu tell you everything that could be regarded as a big thing?" I just miss you. ”
"It's that simple?"
Lian Qingcheng looked at him suspiciously, vaguely feeling that there must be something she didn't know, but he didn't say it.
Feng Guiyi laughed helplessly, stretched out his hand and scratched her nose, and said dotingly: "Do I still need to find an improper reason when I see you?" If you don't like to be obedient, I won't say it next time. ”
"That's not good", Lian Qingcheng suddenly turned his face and pouted: "How rare it is to be able to make you say something I like, if you don't say it, life will be very boring." ”
"Don't worry, even if you don't say this, I'll give you a lot of fun."
"Really?"
Lian Qingcheng raised his eyebrows, innocent, not knowing what he meant.
"Hmm", Feng Guixie nodded, suddenly hugged her to his lap, bent his head to her ear, and tempted: "Otherwise, let's try it now?" ”
If Fang Cai didn't know what the fun he was referring to, with this change, even Qingcheng should know no matter how stupid he was, his face turned red, and he pushed away the body he wanted to suppress and jumped out of his arms, and sat down opposite him as if he was running for his life, and poured himself a cup of tea with trembling hands.
Feng Gui smiled when he saw this, "Cheng'er is shy."
"Nonsense", Lian Qingcheng picked up the cup and drank tea, lowered his eyes and defended: "I'm just thirsty, that's right, I'm thirsty, why do I suddenly want to drink water so much." ”
After saying that, he threw the cup as if he was not enough, picked up the kettle and poured a lot of water into his mouth.
"Ahem!"
She drank too quickly, and the new tea in her mouth was washed down by the new tea before she had time to swallow, so she coughed violently, splashing water, Feng Guixie frowned and shook her head, walked over and patted her on the back to give her a smooth breath, and said helplessly: "I'm just a joke, and I didn't go to my heart, why are you more serious." ”
"I've said it all, ahem! I'm just mouthful, cough! Thirst! ”
Lian Qingcheng blushed and glared at him unhappily.
"Okay, Cheng'er is thirsty, the water is there, what is the urgency."
Feng Guixie looked at her funny, ignoring the anger in her eyes, and continued to pat her back gently, seeing that she gradually stopped coughing, and her face was no longer red, so he stopped his hand and whispered: "Those dead feather riders were killed by my people." ”
Lian Qingcheng was shocked, his eyes opened and he didn't know what to say, he was deflated again in an instant, he lowered his head and sat on the stool, stunned for a while, and said softly, "Actually, I have already guessed that Liu Muxian sent secret guards to Dragon City, on the one hand, to destroy the evidence of the crime, on the other hand, I am afraid that I want to find out the people behind these feather horses, I said during the training, if one day they are unfortunately captured, their own lives are the most important, even if they really confess it." Even the three words 'Qingcheng', I won't blame them for half a point, now that I have been in Longcheng for a few days, there is no movement in Beijing, I think I haven't found anything from their mouths, and with Liu Muxian's temperament, if they don't open their mouths for a day, they will not let them die even if they use torture, so it is within my expectation that you will do this, nothing to blame. ”
"Hehe, so open? How to say that they are also your people. ”
Lian Qingcheng lay on the table and was silent for a moment, and sighed: "An inch of blue blood casts an inch of rivers and mountains, today they bleed, and tomorrow there are thousands of people who die, how can I have so much time to be sentimental, although they are my people, but at the moment of entering the feather ride, I gave them a chance, and today's everything is just because of my own choice, just like I chose you, destined to embark on a bloody road of white bones." ”
Feng Guixie's heart ached, he bent down and hugged her tightly to his chest, buried his head deep in her shoulder, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry." ”
Lian Qingcheng closed his eyes and smiled bitterly: "Feng Gui evil, only this once, don't say 'I'm sorry' to me in the future, and I won't tell you, okay?" ”
"Good".
He nodded solemnly, as if in promise.
The long night was getting cooler, the wind was blowing, and the melancholy flew away, Feng Guixie felt the warmth in his chest, and slowly closed his eyes.
"Come back to Beijing with me tomorrow, I have already been to Shizi before I came to you, and Su Yu can't hide it for long."
