323: The hostility is mutual
ββ Hello everyone, I unexpectedly, firmly, and ran back to update -
~~~
"You won't open your mouth to persuade me?"
Dong Lie asked, with both puzzlement and relief in his tone, and even a little bit of "grievance" deliberately revealed.
Jiang Ying raised her head and looked at him with slightly wide eyes.
Dong Lie was also looking at her, and with a smile on his face, the smile was all over his eyes and the corners of his mouth, even if he was wearing a mask, he couldn't hide it.
Jiang Ying's eyes widened a little rounder.
Just what he said...... What is the meaning?
The smile in Dong Lie's eyes became stronger, but he was more helpless, he shook his head and said: "Look at you, the little girls are getting smarter and smarter the older they get, why do you just come the other way around, the more you grow up and look at it, the more stupid you become?" In addition to a wooden face and glaring eyes, will there be a side reaction? β
Jiang Yingden was dumbfounded!
This......
Is this remembered?!
But ...... "you...... Didn't you take this medicine? β
Jiang Ying pointed to the brocade box on the small table and asked with a puzzled expression.
Dong Lie shook his head with a smile when he saw that her eyes were about to fall out.
"What ......?" Jiang Ying looked at him for a moment.
Through these eyes, she could almost be sure that Dong Lie had regained her memory!
Sure enough, I heard Dong Lie say with a smile: "No need to take medicine, I have already remembered it myself." β
I remembered it myself!
Jiang Ying stood up from her chair uncontrollably, her expression both surprised and delighted.
But when he opened his mouth, he asked, "...... Would you like to remember? β
Dong Lie was stunned.
Would you like to remember?
What is this asking?
"I've already remembered it. Is it a difference to be willing or unwilling? Dong Lie asked softly, but there was a hint of curiosity hidden in his heart.
"If you don't want to remember, I won't force you." The surprise on Jiang Ying's face had gradually faded, and it was replaced by a rare calm, looking at Dong Lie and saying, "I can act as if you never remembered, on the nurse's side, I will find a way to convince." β
Dong Lie's expression froze when he heard this.
He never imagined that her first reaction would be ...... after learning that she had recovered her memory Worried that the outcome was not what he wanted. I'm afraid he'll be embarrassed.
Donglie looked at her. The tone was complicated, "You girl...... It's changed so much. β
Jiang Ying looked at him and insisted: "Actually, in the past few years, what my grandmother and I are most worried about is not whether my brother can come back. Where you are. It's about whether you're safe or not. For now, no matter what, at least I am sure that my brother is safe, so I can rest assured. As for your future decisions. We will not interfere. β
"What do you mean by that?" Dong Lie raised his eyebrows and asked, "Now, my return is superfluous?" β
"I didn't say that...... Jiang Ying's voice lowered, she shook her head and asked rhetorically: "You haven't come to me in the past two days, in fact, you have already made a decision in your heart, haven't you?" β
Dong Lie was silent for a moment when he heard this.
The reason why he didn't come over for the past two days was indeed thinking about something.
But now, he's thinking about it.
True, the decision has also been made.
After being silent for a long time, looking at the little girl in front of him, who was completely different from the taciturn and extremely dependent on the people around him everywhere, and the fragile but pitiful sister in his impression, Dong Lie's heart was complicated for a while, and he couldn't say whether he was more distressed or more ironing.
"Silly girl......"
Then he sighed with emotion: "I've really grown up." β
Jiang Ying saw that he sighed, but she was a little anxious, and asked, "So what are you going to do?" β
This urging sentence made Dong Lie stunned.
When she looked at it again, she didn't feel half abrupt on her face when she said this!
Why is there a feeling that he is trying his best to pull the situation back to the normal way that a brother and sister should be, but she doesn't want to pay attention to it at all, and the two of them are not on the same line at all?
Donglie sighed silently.
Let's make it clear to her first, otherwise there will be no way to talk about anything else.
Perhaps it is very likely that she will pick up a broom and chase people away in the next moment......
"You sit down first and listen to me slowly......" Dong Lie beckoned to Jiang Ying and smiled helplessly.
Jiang Ying glanced at him and sat down obediently.
Dong Lie had to put aside his long-term feelings for his family for the time being, and explained in detail some of the thoughts he had now.
The meaning of Dong Lie is clear.
Jiang family, he must return, there is no doubt about this, and it is very firm.
But at the moment, his identity is Prince Ying of Xiling, and there are still many burdens on his body that cannot be removed immediately, and he will inevitably come back, but it will take a process.
Xiling needs it, and he needs it himself.
But if you want to elaborate, although he has been thinking about it for the past two days, he is all thinking about how to solve these subsequent events, and he has never wavered about whether to be his true self again.
Xiling is kind to him, but he is never on the same choice line as whether he wants to give up and get back to his original self.
In the past few years, he has never stopped searching for the truth.
For his father-in-law, King Xiling, he has long made it clear that the position of the prince should be temporarily 'kept' until he meets a suitable candidate, so as to stabilize the negative impact caused by the thin heirs of the Xiling royal family.
After listening to his explanation, Jiang Ying was sure that he was rational and willing, and had made a very clear plan for the future, and finally had no worries, and was about to say something, but couldn't help but redden.
She used to be a little afraid of seeing Jiang Lang.
Even if she has a deep impression of this 'brother' in her mind, the nurse will always mention it unintentionally. She was also subconsciously worried about it...... But more than that, I don't know how to face this brother who has never really met.
She has no practical experience as a younger sister, and she can't learn the original Jiang Ying's appearance, so she has always been worried that Jiang Lang will notice that something is wrong with her.
But the current qiΔ is so logical.
In the face of this strange man who had no intersection before, she didn't have the slightest sense of rejection, let alone the abrupt and embarrassing strangeness and helplessness she imagined.
This point, she was already aware of it when she hugged Jiang Lang uncontrollably in the restaurant and cried bitterly, but now she was facing Jiang Lang, who had recovered her memory, a brother in the real sense. But I really felt this indescribable subtle emotion.
Jiang Ying couldn't help but wipe away her tears. took the afterglow and glanced at Jiang Lang, but he didn't see the expected look of comfort, but ......
"Hahahaha......" Jiang Lang raised his face slightly and laughed loudly.
Jiang Ying's face was embarrassed.
What's going on?
She's crying here. The elder brother laughed!
"I really don't care if I don't come back, this girl--don't you still have the same kind of questioning me as I plan? Why are you crying now? Jiang Lang's tone was full of pride. At the end, he turned to sigh and said: "Fortunately, I am determined, if I really change to a person who sways from side to side, I may be pushed out by your words." Such an undesirable way of doing things. Who taught you exactly? β
Jiang Ying was stirred up by him and cried no more, listening to his words, although she didn't agree, she was speechless.
So he only focused on wiping his tears and did not answer.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, I'll be here in the future, and I'll have a lot of time to teach you how to be a person and do things!" Jiang Lang reached out and patted Jiang Ying's shoulder, Jiang Ying looked up at him, not knowing where he got his confidence.
Not to mention that she has had amnesia for so long, just before she had amnesia, her brother was not a very reliable person.
Far away, just say that this self-righteousness is now, and it can be seen that it has not diminished in the slightest.
"Let's go, let's eat, it's time to get ready on the nurse's side-" Jiang Lang looked very happy, took Jiang Ying's hand, took the person from the chair and walked out of the hall.
Jiang Ying wiped the last half of the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she let out an "ah" and asked, "Do you still want to stay for dinner?" β
"Ugh!" Jiang Lang was stunned for a moment, then reached out and patted her on the head, frowned and pretended to be displeased, and asked rhetorically, "What are you talking about?" I can't even stay for breakfast, it won't work with you? β
"I mean, it's not too early, aren't you going to go out of the city with the army?" Jiang Ying covered his head with one hand, and added: "If you don't leave, Brother Jin should be in a hurry." β
Jiang Lang's face was still relieved when he heard her say the previous sentence, but then he heard the latter sentence again, and suddenly reacted - what she wanted to say was that she was still afraid that Jin Qi would be in a hurry!
"Love can't wait! I'll see if he can really leave me in the city and take the troops out of the city himself!" "As soon as Jiang Lang's identity was restored, this inexplicable 'rebellion' popped up again......
"Isn't that an impact?" Jiang Ying looked at him hesitantly.
She also wants the family to be able to sit together and have a good meal before Jiang Lang leaves, but isn't there a saying that those who achieve great things must focus on the overall situation......?
"After talking for a long time, are you still afraid that the second son of Jin will be in a hurry?" Jiang Lang's brows furrowed even tighter, he looked at her with a deep look, and said, "If you don't mention it, I'm going to forget to ask you, what is your relationship with him?" β
Jiang Ying suddenly felt that she was 'setting herself on fire', and she was speechless.
"Also, that time when he climbed over the wall to enter your courtyard in the middle of the night, could he have your permission in advance?" Jiang Lang asked again.
Jiang Ying felt that this question was too difficult to answer, if she said yes, she would definitely be scolded, if she said it was not, it would hinder Brother Jin's impression in her brother's mind......
"I can't remember!" Jiang Ying simply brazenly used this as a prevarication, and instead took Jiang Lang's hand and trotted up, diverting his attention, and hurriedly said: "Let's hurry up, if it's too late, the food will be cold!" β
"Eh, you girl, what are you doing running so fast, you haven't answered my question yet!"
"If you're really not in a hurry, I'll take you to put incense on your father and mother after dinner, right?"
"Well, that's exactly what I wanted."
"The nurse must have boiled your favorite lotus root and mung bean porridge......"
"Hey...... It's been a few years since I've drunk the porridge made by the nurse. β
"Then let's go."
"Go ......"
Huh......?!
Just now he wanted to ask, what, here?
β¦β¦
When Jiang Lang returned to the Jin State Mansion, it was almost noon.
"Prince Ying is back."
A guard in a black suit was waiting in front of his courtyard, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Jiang Lang recognized that this was the guard beside Jin Qi, so he nodded.
He suddenly felt some unspeakable guilt.
He admitted that the reason why he delayed coming back until now was that on the one hand, he wanted to stay with his sister and the nurse for a while, but at the same time, he also had a negative idea that he wanted to deliberately make Jin Qi wait a little longer.
Relying on his special identity, he also knows that it is very wrong to have such a 'communiquΓ© for personal vendetta'.
But after recovering his memory, he involuntarily had a ...... for Jin Qi Enmity.
A kind of hostility that is inexplicable, but cannot be ignored.
This kind of hostility was his original intention to do this, but when he came back so late, instead of sending someone to urge him, Jin Qi had people stay here and wait for him to return, which could not be more reasonable in comparison.
Jiang Lang sighed softly, realizing that he had actually spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain this time.
"Go back and pass the word to the second son, and you can leave immediately."
Jiang Lang's tone was unusually good, which made the guards panic a little, but he didn't dare to delay and said: "In response to the prince, this morning the second prince has already set off with General Ying and the eldest prince and other leading troops, and let the subordinates wait here, just to tell Prince SΓΉying-"
"What?" Jiang Lang looked at him in disbelief.
Already gone?
All gone!
Didn't wait for him at all!
He didn't even let anyone go to him, he just went out of the city!
A gust of wind blew, and the river waves were messy in the wind.
"The second prince said that the military order cannot be violated, and since the hour has been set, it cannot be changed without authorization because Prince Ying has something to do temporarily, otherwise it will give people a sense of loose discipline, and it will also affect the morale of the army...... "It can be seen that this is a very conscientious guard, and he strives to convey every word of Jin Qi to Jiang Lang's ears," so the second prince asked his subordinates to stay and wait for Prince Ying to handle his own affairs, and then bring another team to catch up. β
What he didn't see was that under the cover of the mask, Jiang Lang's entire face had sunk terrifyingly.
He could see it.
The one who is really hostile is not himself at all......
There are others who have a personal vendetta!
If it weren't for the fact that he had already secretly made an agreement with his father-in-law, he would definitely stop this battle at this moment!
It's so deceitful! (To be continued......)
