Chapter Eighty-Seven: Persuading Lan Lingxu

"I'm going for you" The hoarse and slightly puzzled voice fell, and the people in the darkness didn't seem to believe what Situ Yuli had to say.

Hearing the distrust in his voice, Situ Yuli hurriedly explained: "Qing'er wanted to get the array map for me, and after Qing'er stunned me that night, I went, please check it out."

"Do you think she can steal it?" the person asked instead, unable to tell if he didn't believe what Situ Yuli said, but just shifted the topic to another question.

After hearing this, Situ Yuli didn't dare to delay for a moment, and immediately spoke: "No, Yu'er once persuaded her, but Qing'er is a stubborn person, she knows that she is going to die, so she doesn't want me to take it, and would rather do it for me before she dies, knowing that she can't do it."

Situ Yuli replied in a low voice, but he had already felt grief because of the pity for Qing'er in his heart, and his tears had quietly slipped down unconsciously.

"The deity warns you, if there is anything wrong this time, you don't want to see that Qing'er again" Some moist breathing lingered in his ears, and with the man's hoarse voice, he couldn't help but make Situ Yuli shiver all over.

"Yes" Situ Yuli nodded: "I will do it, but please promise Yu'er one thing"

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with the deity," Situ Yuli's words made the people in the darkness extremely displeased.

Situ Yuli persuaded: "Yu'er knows that she is not qualified, Yu'er wants to ask the lord to treat Qing'er well before Yu'er gets the array map" After speaking, Situ Yuli kowtowed to the visitor.

After listening to a muffled snort, the sentence "Her life is in your hands, how to treat her should not be decided by the deity" floated from far and near, making Situ Yuli suddenly realize that the person who was standing in front of him had already left.

Standing up slowly, Situ Yuli was not afraid of the darkness at all at this moment, just because her heart was full of concern for Qing'er and what she should do to get what that person wanted.

Standing in place and thinking for a moment, he took a step back to the Water Flowing Moon Garden.

In the darkness, after Situ Yuli turned back, a figure appeared where the two of them were standing, he looked at the woman's distant back, and the hand hidden in his sleeve had shrunk into a fist.

He didn't expect that he would discover such a big conspiracy, and after a moment of contemplation, he immediately dodged away.

After Lan Lingxu left last night, Nangong Luo Jing found that Luo Yuan's guards were much stricter.

Obviously, Lan Lingxu is still very protective of himself, he will not let yesterday's incident happen again, and now he is even more secluded from her, even if there are people guarding the garden.

She reviewed the memo sent by the maid as usual, but after reading the content of the memo, her heart was full of anger.

She couldn't forget what she had talked about yesterday with the Prime Minister and the others.

Putting down the things he was reviewing in his hand with some annoyance, Nangong Luo Jing glanced around at the guards with a murderous aura, and his heart was even more irritable.

"You all go out," she said, a little impatiently.

However, no one cared about her words, they still stood still, only to hear one person come forward and say: "Princess, my subordinates are here to protect the princess on the order of the princess, and we must not let the princess leave our sight, I hope the princess will forgive me."

"Protect the palace" Nangong Luo Jing sneered: "According to the palace, the protection is fake, and the surveillance is real."

The guard saw that Nangong Luo Jing was a little annoyed, so he immediately gave up his hand and said, "Please calm the princess's anger."

"You go out, what's the matter, this palace itself will tell Sister Wang," Nangong Luo Jing commanded in a cold voice.

But the guards glanced at each other, and arched their hands: "Forgive the subordinates for not being able to do it, the eldest princess instructed the subordinates not to let the princess leave our sight for a single step."

Although the guard's words annoyed Nangong Luojing, she also understood that they also had difficulties, so she no longer embarrassed them, but narrowed her eyes, supported her lower forehead with one hand, closed her eyes and stopped talking.

However, there were many thoughts in her heart, she wanted to know how Qin Yue's injuries were, whether the injuries on Wan Gu's arms had been treated, and the coachman who had been dragged down by herself, whether something had happened to him was not entirely sure.

And now that there are so many, so many pairs of eyes looking at him, even Feng Yin can't get close to himself.

All these doubts can only be temporarily suppressed in the heart, and cannot be spoken.

Just as Nangong Luo Jing was pondering, Lan Lingxu outside the door had already stepped into the garden.

"Subordinates have seen it"

Before the guards could finish their words, they were stopped by Lan Lingxu raising his hand, and then the guards in the garden retreated outside the garden.

Nangong Luojing, who heard the voice in his ears, still supported his forehead with one hand, closed his eyes, and did not look at the people who came, nor did he make a sound.

Lan Lingxu glanced at Nangong Luo Jing, and then, his eyes glanced at the folds on the case, and moved forward, wanting to pick up a copy on the table, but Nangong Luo Jing stretched out his hand to stop him.

"This is the recital of the defense of the country, how can you see it" The cold voice fell, and Nangong Luo Jing placed the recitals on the table neatly one by one and moved them to the other side.

Hearing Nangong Luo Jing say this, Lan Lingxu retracted his hand without embarrassment, and with a little smile on his face, he said: "It's no different from looking at it or not, anyway, these are all through the hands of this king."

Hearing Lan Lingxu say such words, Nangong Luo Jing couldn't help but feel a thrill all over his body, and suddenly had a little awakening in his heart: "You said that these twists and turns are all through your hands" Nangong Luo Jing raised his voice slightly, and then, suddenly understood, and couldn't help but chuckle: "No wonder I didn't think of this,"

"You don't have to think about it, as long as you know that all this is under my control," Lan Lingxu glanced at her, his eyes full of contempt.

"Yes, that's right, everything is in your hands" Nangong Luo Jing rose with the voice, and the smile in his eyes became more and more dazzling: "It's just that you shouldn't have thought about it, you carefully calculated what you want to get from Weiguo and what you want to get from Dongyang, you should never have thought that there is such a sentence."

Nangong Luo Jing's words made Lan Lingxu wonder: "What words,"

"The praying mantis catches cicadas and yellow finches are behind," Nangong Luo Jing said sharply.

"Oh" Lan Lingxu took a step, took a few steps forward, and said with a straight look on Nangong Luojing's face: "What do you mean by this?"

"Don't you understand what you mean by this" Nangong Luo Jing opened his mouth faintly, but the smile on his face was extremely charming in Lan Lingxu's eyes.

He walked around behind Nangong Luojing and whispered in her ear, "The princess might as well talk about it."

The warm breath lingered around her neck, and Nangong Luojing turned her head unhappily, but she felt a sudden force on her waist firmly encircled her, making her unable to hide even if she wanted to.

"Let go" frowned, she didn't want to have such intimate movements with someone other than what she was hiding in her heart.

There was a faint aroma under his nose, Lan Lingxu hooked his lips and said, "As long as you say it, this king will let go"

Nodding slightly, Nangong Luojing's brows tightened a little, but there was still a little struggle in his heart, and his lips lightly said: "The prince shouldn't understand, because this should be a secret to the prince."

"Secret" Nangong Luo Jing's words made Lan Lingxu a little puzzled, thought for a moment, and suddenly had an answer in his heart.

"You, how do you know" The words fell, Nangong Luo Jing only felt that the strength of his waist was gradually lost, and it must have been his own words that touched his heart.

Coincidentally, this also proves that what Xiahou Yi said was not deceiving himself.

"The prince seems to be surprised by all this I know" Nangong Luo Jing opened his mouth lightly, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"This king just wants to know why you know about this," Lan Lingxu said in annoyance.

It's just that before Nangong Luojing could speak, he suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and reached out against Nangong Luojing's chin and said, "Say, who did you see yesterday?"

The pain spread, Nangong Luo Jing wanted to struggle but couldn't break free: "Who did you say I would have seen?"

"Who is there in this country," Lan Lingxu couldn't help but muttered to himself, but it happened to fall into Nangong Luojing's ears.

"It's Xiahou Yi," Nangong Luo Jing hooked his lips and said.

"Xia, Xiahou Yi" Lan Lingxu never thought that the person Nangong Luo Jing had seen would be Xiahou Yi, so even there was an unbelievable expression on his face.

"What did he say to you?"

"I said a lot, I don't know what the prince is referring to and what he cares about" Nangong Luo Jing said coldly.

"Everything" Looking at Lan Lingxu's very anxious face, Nangong Luo Jing couldn't help but smile.

Nangong Luojing's smile made Lan Lingxu feel even more uneasy in his heart.

However, his insecurity fell into Nangong Luojing's eyes.

"Everything you and King Nan have done, he has told me, you can think about it yourself" Nangong Luo Jing glanced at Lan Lingxu and couldn't help but take a step back.

Listening to what Nangong Luo Jing said, the positive color on Lan Lingxu's face disappeared instantly, and was replaced by a faint look of panic on his face.

"Where is he," Lan Lingxu said angrily.

"In a house on the outskirts of the city," Nangong Luojing replied honestly.

After having an answer, Lan Lingxu turned around and moved to leave Luoyuan, but was stopped by Nangong Luojing: "Where are you going?"

"Go see him" Lan Lingxu said coldly, and then walked around Nangong Luo Jing's side.

"That mansion is deeply hidden, I'm afraid that if you go, it will be in vain" Nangong Luo Jing did not stop it, and reminded in an extremely cold voice.

"I can't manage so much" Lan Lingxu didn't listen to the dissuasion: "This king and his account must be settled clearly today"

"Luo Jing can't control the prince's decision, but Luo Jing asks the prince to think clearly, what kind of person Xiahou Yi is, it seems that the prince knows much more than Luo Jing, why doesn't the prince think about it in the long run"

"What do you mean by that" Lan Lingxu glanced at Nangong Luo Jing, only to feel that what she said had a hint of metaphor.

"What the prince wants is Dongyang, why bother to give in to the king of the south"

"What do you mean" Lan Lingxu suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and tilted his head to ask.

Nangong Luo Jing also said unhurriedly: "King Nan's ambition is too big, does the prince think he can get Dongyang from him?"

Feeling that what Nangong Luo Jing said was somewhat reasonable, Lan Lingxu couldn't help but nod and continued to listen to what Nangong Luo Jing would say next.

"The prince can still do things for the king of the south, but he can choose how far things can be done, Luo Jing's meaning, the prince understands" The voice fell, and Nangong Luo Jing smiled.
