Chapter 688: Talking in bed
Knock knock, with three crisp sounds outside the door, Yun Ling's crisp voice floated softly: "Scorpion, you haven't slept yet, have you?" Can I come in? ”
The scorpion stood up, took off the door bolt, opened the door, and saw Yun Ling, who was wearing a long white dress, waist-length hair, and holding a quilt standing at the door, and asked puzzledly, "Is there something wrong?" ”
"Can I sleep with you tonight?" Yun Ling asked timidly, seeing that the scorpion looked puzzled, she hurriedly explained, "I have dreamed since I was a child that a sister can squeeze a bed, and talk head to head until dawn, but helplessly, there are no female disciples in the Yunlan Sect, and the sect master only has one daughter, and I am stuck in the pile of boys every day, and there is no one to talk to." Scorpion, can you fulfill my childhood dream? ”
"Come in!" The scorpion smiled slightly, opened the door wider, and turned sideways to make a way.
"Really? Would you really like to sleep with me? Yun Ling was flattered and confirmed again.
"You said it so strictly, can I not let you in?" The scorpion put his hands around his chest and said funny.
"Then you're welcome!" Yun Ling rushed in with the quilt in her arms, went to the scorpion's big bed, and said with emotion, "Ah! Why didn't I notice the bed in this room so soft and comfortable? ”
"Dare you to grab the bed? Say it early! I've seen this yard, there are two side rooms on the side, and the cleaning is quite clean, I'll give it to you tonight, I'll go to sleep in the side room. The scorpion joked with a smile.
"Hey! Other! I just want to talk to you, to taste what it's like to chat until you fall asleep, and you're gone. Who am I talking to? Yun Ling hurriedly got up. Trott in front of the scorpion. Open your arms to block the scorpion's way, and say confidently.
The night was getting deeper, the flames of the oil lamp were still flickering and beating, the scorpion pillowed his hands under his head, stared at the gauze tent on the bed with wide eyes, brewing sleep, Yun Ling turned sideways, with his back to himself. The girl who rolled up the cup she had brought, curled up in the corner like a caterpillar, was at a distance from herself, and kept shouting to talk to herself until she fell asleep, and she had not made a sound since she lay down.
Half an hour later, just when the scorpion was not sleeping, Yun Ling suddenly spoke: "Do you know? The day after tomorrow, the eldest lady of the tree emperor will come to Huayu City! The eldest lady has not been out of the imperial capital since she married into the Tree Emperor Palace, and this time she came to Huayu City to see Meng Qi! ”
The scorpion smiled lightly, Lu Tianyuan really thought about it this time. Presumably he has figured out where his love is, no wonder Meng Qi is so unkind to see him. Presumably because she was about to come true, she was afraid that I would suddenly appear and break her dream!
"Why don't you speak? Aren't you surprised, don't you feel sad? Yun Ling suddenly turned around and looked at the scorpion and asked puzzled.
"This matter has nothing to do with me, so why should I be surprised and sad?" The scorpion chuckled, turned around, and lay on his side face to face with Yun Ling, and asked funny.
"Are you right" Yun Ling glanced at the scorpion twice, then said with a smile, "It seems that I have misunderstood!" ”
"Lu Tianyuan, Shuhuang, the Meng family and I don't have much to do with it, it doesn't matter if it's sad or happy!" The scorpion turned around again and said in a calm tone.
"However, at first I was very sad when I heard the news, and I sat under the osmanthus tree in the courtyard and cried all night, and the next day I lay in bed for another day, and I had a high fever, which frightened my father and Wang Zhe!" Yun Ling smiled slightly, "Later, it was my father who enlightened me, he said that the Shuhuang had fifty-two wives and concubines, and there were ten ordinary wives alone, and Meng Qi could marry Lu Tianyuan, as long as I wanted, the same could be done." Father also gave the most precious water bamboo of the Yunlan Sect to an elder in the Tree Emperor clan who had some friendship with him, and asked the elder to find a way to persuade the Tree Emperor and the eldest lady to marry Meng Qi when they were able to marry me together. In fact, in addition to the eldest lady being particularly happy about Meng Qi's matter, all the elders in the Shuhuang family have a lot of complaints, don't you say that the Meng family is a small family that can't be on the stage, as far as Meng Qi himself is concerned, he looks mediocre and has a disability, and the Shuhuang sent someone to investigate, Meng Qi was once abandoned by the family because of his disability and grew up in the wild, everyone should be the same, except for the strength is reasonable, there is no one in the body, if it is placed in normal times, even the palace maids of the Shuhuang Palace are not qualified to do it. However, for more than two hundred years, Lu Tianyuan has never had a woman around him, and everyone is rumoring that Lu Tianyuan has a habit of breaking his sleeves, although Meng Qi is poor, but it is better than a man, so the elders have no choice but to agree. As for me, I became famous in Huayu City early in the morning, well-deserved as the first beauty in Huayu City, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, originally raised according to the rules of everyone's ladies, and the strength of Yunlan Sect is slightly stronger than that of the Meng family, no matter how you look at it, it is more suitable to be selected into the Shuhuang Palace. Moreover, although the place of Huayu City is small, he can also be regarded as the barrier of the entire Eastern Wilderness Continent, one day the seal of the blood clan is lifted, and it will have to rely on it to resist the invasion of the blood clan, the tree emperor still values it more, he can't let the Meng family become bigger because of nepotism, which greatly weakens the combat effectiveness of this barrier, and moreover, the tree emperor can't look down on the Meng family at all, so he also needs me to enter the palace together, so as to show outsiders, contain the Meng family, and make the original layout of Huayu City unchanged. ”
"So, this time the eldest lady came to Huayu City, in addition to seeing Meng Qi, she also came to see you?" Listening to Yun Ling's words, the scorpion was taken aback, she had already seen that Yun Ling had thoughts about Lu Tianyuan, but she never expected that when the matter was a foregone conclusion, Yun Ling would voluntarily come to this troubled water.
"Do you think I'm humble, ridiculous?" There was a faint sadness in Yun Ling's eyebrows, it was not at all the usual laughing, noisy, and temperamental appearance of the eldest lady, the voice was faint, as if floating from the bottom of the valley surrounded by mountains, giving people an ethereal feeling, "Lu Tianyuan doesn't like me at all, he doesn't even want to say a word to me, I just lean towards him, but obviously he is very close to him, and even stands side by side, but he still feels that he is so far away from me, out of reach, just like the bright moon in the sky, dazzling and beautiful, but it never belongs to me." Sometimes, love can really make people very humble, even so, I am still willing, regardless of the qiē to stand by his side, even if I can only watch from a distance, it is impossible to reach, I have no complaints. ”
"However, it is unfair to Meng Qi for you to do this!" The scorpion sighed lightly and said on a matter-by-case basis.
"It turned out that I thought the same way, but then I figured it out, Lu Tianyuan is the future Emperor of the Tree, it is impossible to have only one wife, anyway, he will marry other women in the future, it is better to marry me, Meng Qi and I are good sisters, the two of them support each other in the palace, it is better than those women who have ill intentions towards her." Anyway, my marriage to Lu Tianyuan will be beneficial to Meng Qi and harmless! Yun Ling decibels raised a little and said confidently.
"I hope Meng Qi thinks the same way!" The scorpion grunted, she really didn't know Meng Qi now, and she didn't want to build anything for Yun Ling, and now she didn't want to get involved in these messy things at all. With some sleepiness, the scorpion was about to fall asleep vaguely.
"Hey! Scorpion, these are the secrets I told you! You have to keep it a secret for me, or something big will happen! Yun Ling seemed to remember something, and suddenly shouted in surprise.
The scorpion, who was about to fall asleep, was startled, and sighed helplessly: "It's so secret, I didn't want to ask me if I knew it!" ”
"I'm not panicking in my heart." Yun Ling pursed her lips and said, "I'm afraid that even Lu Tianyuan himself doesn't know about this matter, and Meng Qi can't let her know, if I let them know, I really don't know how to face them." Also, Senior Brother Wang Zhe, if he had known earlier, he might have been able to launch a rebellion and pull my father down from the position of sect master. Moreover, although this matter is going smoothly, it depends on Lu Tianyuan's attitude at that time, if he resolutely opposes it, this matter will not be successful, in case the news leaks and cannot enter the Tree Emperor Palace, not only will my father's position as the sect leader be difficult to protect, but I will also become the laughing stock of Quanhua Yucheng. ”
"Don't worry, my scorpion is not a person with a broken mouth, I don't like to talk about people's right and wrong, and I won't leak your secret to the slightest!" The scorpion yawned and muttered.
"The eldest lady will live in the Yunlan Sect this time! If nothing else, Lu Tianyuan and Lu Tianye will also move to Yunlan Sect! ”
The scorpion thought that she could end the chat and sleep well, but she didn't expect Yun Ling's voice to come from her ears again, and the shock of these words was no less than a seven-magnitude earthquake, which made the scorpion's drowsiness suddenly disappear, she turned around and stared at her eyes and asked, "Why?" ”
"It should be the elder who received my father's gift, mainly because he wants Lu Tianyuan to have more contact with me and cultivate some feelings. Their reason would be that since Lu Tianyuan planned to marry Meng Qi into the Tree Emperor Palace, living in the Meng family would be unseemly, and it would be easy to attract people. Yun Ling didn't notice the scorpion's gaffe at all, and was still immersed in her feelings of not knowing whether she was sad or happy.
"That's it!" The scorpion responded thoughtfully, but in his heart he was thinking about how to hide from the two brothers of the Lu family, or simply leave Huayu City and hide far away. However, up to now, except for the news that the 'Rootless Flower' will appear in the Cultivator Contest in Flower Language City, there is no other news about the 'Rootless Flower', where are you going to leave Flower Language City? Besides, the arrival of the eldest lady this time may also be a great opportunity to ask about the whereabouts of the 'rootless flower'. After careful consideration, the scorpion still decided to stay, after all, compared to the big matter of finding the 'rootless flower', Lu Tianyuan's matter could not be regarded as a matter at all.
