Chapter 099: Love in the Red Dust (9)
With such a familiar scene, Jian Ning's heart was touched again.
At the beginning, Yingluo sacrificed herself for the love in her heart and saved Bingchen. Now Prince and Princess Xuan are also willing to give up their lives for love, just to get rid of their fate.
And what about yourself? He keeps saying that he loves Xiahou Yan, but what has he done for him? Almost every time, he is paying for her, and he has repeatedly committed risks for her
Although Prince Xuan and Princess Xuan are meticulous, for the sake of Prince Xuan, Long Zeye retained her last bit of face and announced to the public that the princess died of illness.
Although it was buried in the courtesy of the princess, the funeral was very well organized according to Prince Xuan's requirements, and almost no officials or wives in the court were allowed to go in to mourn.
Jian Ning didn't go, or didn't know what kind of identity to go. In their eyes, she is Mianyin's daughter after all.
also because the matter of Prince and Princess Xuan almost attracted most of the energy of Long Zeye and many people, so Wu Shi and Zijin acted very smoothly and did not encounter the expected danger.
After the princess was buried, Jian Ning took the initiative to go to the imperial study to find Long Zeye.
This time, she didn't remain silent anymore, and talked to Long Zeye seriously: "If I stay, can you let Xiahou Yan go?" ”
Long Zeye stopped the pen in his hand, raised his eyes to look at Jian Ning, and said, "If you want to negotiate, then you must at least have equivalent bargaining chips in your hand; If you have come to ask for help, then what you just said is enough to provoke me to kill him. ”
"What do you want?" Jian Ning knew that this matter would not be so easy, but she still had to give it a try.
Whether it's out of selfishness or out of the big picture. If Long Zeye detains Xiahou Yan again, sooner or later, the army of Dongshang will come back again. But there will be war again
"If I want you to tell him personally, you will marry me. And let him see you become my queen with his own eyes? A deep meaning suddenly appeared in Long Zeye's eyes, and he squinted his eyes slightly and said.
"Yes. As long as you let him go. Jian Ning agreed without much thought.
For her, it doesn't really make sense to be with anyone now. If you can make the resentment in Long Zeye's heart a little less because of this, and let Xiahou Yan be safe, why not?
But hearing Jian Ning's answer, Long Zeye became even more angry.
"Do you really love him that way? Are you willing to be trapped in this palace for the rest of your life for her? Have you ever thought about how I feel? ”
The more Long Zeye thought about it, the more angry he became, if it was Jian Ning before, I am afraid that not only would he refuse immediately. will also scold him and call him despicable.
But now? For the sake of that person, did she even give up her pride and principles?
There was no sadness and heartbreak in his heart, and finally he felt deeply tired, and after throwing a token to Jian Ning, he turned around helplessly, waved his hand dejectedly, and said to Jian Ning: "You take him away, but you remember that this is the last time I am soft-hearted." Sometime. See each other on the battlefield, either life or death! ”
Jian Ning knew that no matter what Long Zeye said at this time, he might not be able to listen to it, so he chose to leave temporarily.
She should solve Xiahou Yan's matter first, as for Long Zeye. What is owed to him will always be paid back.
With the token, even Banyun couldn't stop her.
Seeing Xiahou Yan, Jian Ning didn't say anything. The chains on his hands and feet were opened in a hurry.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Jian Ning briefly dealt with the injury on his wrist for Xiahou Yan. He said softly.
"Why are you back?" Xiahou Yan ignored Jian Ning's bandaging and immediately stroked Jian Ning's cheeks with both hands. "Did you promise him anything, otherwise how could he have let me go? Tell me, isn't it! ”
Jian Ning took away Xiahou Yan's hand a little awkwardly, and said lightly: "You misunderstood, it was Prince Xuan and Princess Xuan who saved you, but she is dead." ”
After bandaging the wounds on both wrists, Jian Ning stood up, stuffed the token into Xiahou Yan's hand, and said, "You can leave the palace with the token." ”
"Okay, then I'll take you with me." After speaking, Xiahou Yan immediately grabbed Jian Ning's hand.
But Jian Ning stood firmly in place, half a step without moving. looked at Xiahou Yan and said: "Although you have saved me many times, this time it was because of me that I ended up like this, I am very grateful to you, but gratitude is not love after all, I hope you can understand." ”
Xiahou Yan slowly let go of the hand holding Jian Ning, looked at Jian Ning's eyes in disbelief and said, "Do you know what you're talking about?" Do you dare to look me in the eye and say again that you don't like me? ”
Jian Ning didn't dare to look at it at all, saying such unwillful words had already made her heart a mess.
"Since you like me, I'll take you away now. I may not be able to give you a peaceful life right now, but I will do my best to protect you."
As soon as Xiahou Yan took Jian Ning's hand, he was thrown away by Jian Ning, and Jian Ning suddenly said sharply: "I don't like you!" ”
As if she was afraid that Xiahou Yan would not believe it, Jian Ning looked directly into Xiahou Yan's eyes and said word by word: "I don't like you!" I didn't like it before, I don't like it now, and I won't like you even more in the future! ”
"Also, I'm about to marry Long Zeye, and I will soon be his queen. This time there will be a grand wedding, there will be an ancestral ceremony, and my name will always be with him. I will be his rightful wife, not a lowly concubine. ”
Jian Ning used almost all her strength to maintain her composure and finish these words smoothly. Since it has been decided to do so, it is better to do it thoroughly, let Xiahou Yan die, and even hate her for it.
"I don't believe that all this was forced by Long Zeye!" Xiahou Yan's face suddenly appeared with a strong murderous and aggressive aura, and even Jian Ning couldn't help but be a little afraid.
"I'll go find him now!"
When Jian Ning heard this, she immediately ran forward a few steps, opened her arms to stop Xiahou Yan and said, "Don't go!" He didn't push me, and he couldn't push me. If you know me, you should know what kind of person I am, and if I don't want to, who can force me? ”
Xiahou Yan suddenly took out a silver hairpin carved with camellia from his arms, held it in front of Jian Ning's eyes, and asked solemnly: "Then do you remember the promise you made, if you still remember, then leave with me now." ”
Jian Ning looked at the camellia silver hairpin, it was the first piece of jewelry she picked out in the jewelry shop when she first arrived here, although it was not expensive, but she liked it at first sight.
once remembered that under a certain wall, as a token, she gave it to Xiahou Yan, who had changed her appearance at that time, but she didn't expect that after all these years, he would still have it with her. (To be continued......)
