Chapter 188: Tearing Face
Gu Cheng's words were clearly to block Deng Jiulang.
Deng Jiulang raised his eyes, he didn't look at Liu Jing, but said expressionlessly: "So, then congratulations." ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly turned his head and shouted at the driver, "Go faster!" After a shout, Deng Jiulang arched his hand towards Gu Cheng and said, "There are still important things to do, so let's go first." With that, his carriage sped up and carried Deng Jiulang away at a gallop.
When Deng Jiulang's figure completely disappeared at the end of the street, Gu Cheng regained his expressionless face.
This is a real expressionless face, and Gu Cheng at this time is so deep that Liu Jing can't see the slightest clue, let alone guess whether his mood is good or bad.
In this silent silence, the carriage moved unhurriedly.
I don't know how long it took, Gu Cheng, who was closing his eyes and recuperating, finally spoke, and he asked lightly: "Do you know why the queen mother summoned us?" ”
Liu Jing shook her head.
Gu Cheng said lightly: "You don't have to pretend to be deaf and dumb in front of me, you are so smart, you know the truth." ”
Speaking of this, he didn't know what he thought, frowning and staring into the distance.
With the sunlight shining in from outside, Liu Jing looked at his handsome side, looked at the thin vertical lines formed between his eyebrows due to too much thought, and slowly withdrew her gaze.
The convoy entered the palace after a while.
When the carriage entered the palace gate, the vehicles of powerful officials came and went from time to time, and among them, Liu Jing saw the carriages of several groups of noble ladies.
When the carriage stopped, several people walked towards the palace gate under the leadership of the eunuchs, and they met batches of noble ladies and ladies from time to time along the way. These people. It was also the first time for Liu Jing, who had seen women's clothes, and her eyes widened curiously, and she looked at her from time to time. Until Liu Jing went far away, she could faintly hear the voices of inquiry, "Who is this sister-in-law?" "Born very similar to Princess Qingyun." "Strange, isn't she Princess Qingyun's daughter outside?"
In the midst of this discussion, soon, the group came to the bottom of the steps, and as soon as a few people stood still, a few senior officials dressed in first-class official robes retreated.
Then. A eunuch stepped forward. Called: "Xuan-Princess Qingyun, Lord Chang Jin!" ”
At the shrill voice of the eunuch, the mother and daughter bowed and walked towards the hall.
Mother and daughter are gone. It's nearly half an hour. And when they quit. A eunuch walked up to Liu Jing. Screamed: "The queen wants to see you, go in." ”
Liu Jing looked up, she turned her head and looked at her face unchanged. It seemed that everything was expected, and Gu Cheng, who seemed to be indifferent to everything, bowed to the eunuch and walked towards the hall.
In the empty hall, Empress Deng sat in the middle, and there was no one else except for the two maidservants standing behind her. But I haven't seen her for a month, Queen Deng has lost a lot of weight, she is always smiling, and she looks extraordinarily graceful, her clear eyes are a little muddy, her lips are a little dry, and the whole person shows a kind of anxiety that is on fire, although she hides it very well!
Liu Jing glanced at it, hurriedly lowered her head, stepped forward honestly, saluted honestly, and said honestly: "Concubine Mu Rabbit has seen the queen's mother......"
As soon as she said this, on the main couch, Empress Deng's voice was a little impatient and tired, "Liu! In front of me, don't pretend to be a wooden rabbit! ”
After dropping this sentence in a deep voice, Empress Deng stood up gracefully from the main couch, and with the support of the two palace maids, she slowly walked towards Liu Jing.
Walking all the way to Liu Jing, Empress Deng looked at Liu Jing condescendingly, and said slowly: "Liu, I heard that you are going to marry Gu Cheng as a daughter of Qingyun Gongism?" ”
Hearing Empress Deng's question, Liu Jing hesitated.
Just when she was still wording and thinking about how to express her meaning, Empress Deng sighed lightly, she slowly circled around Liu Jing, and said slowly: "Liu, I always thought you were a smart person. ”
Maybe it's because she's worked too hard these days, and Queen Deng didn't hide her emotions perfectly as before, so that Liu Jing could hear the almost inaudible disgust in her voice, but she still tried to be as gentle and full of pity as she could say: "In such a predicament in the southwest and southeast, you can go from having nothing to being famous in three states, and even I, the lord of the deep palace, have heard about it from time to time, at that time, I always thought that Liu Baiyi was a wise and usable person." But what did you do when you arrived in Luoyang? Take your beautiful guards to swagger through the market, so that the entire Luoyang people think you are lewd. Pool? Reject my concubine proposal! Now, I am even more tugging with Gu Cheng, and I still want to marry him?! ”
Empress Deng turned her head to look at Liu Jing, her voice was full of hatred, "Liu, I really don't understand what you're thinking!" If you just want to be Liu Baiyi, then you should understand that there is no room for ambiguity, you either help Ah Qing or disappear, but you don't! If you are just a Liu family, you should also understand that since ancient times, the martyr girl does not care about the second husband, and the loyal minister does not care about the second master, since you like Ah Qing, then you should follow him from beginning to end! ”
When she said this, she looked at Liu Jing's eyes with some helplessness, and her voice became gentle and loving, "You kid, even if you play with character, you have to have a degree...... Is this the time for you to come here? With a long sigh, Empress Deng said softly: "Liu, you have to be obedient, so be it, now that Princess Qingyun and Gu Cheng are here, you can clearly say in front of them that you are not a wooden rabbit, you are Liu Jing, you are Liu Baiyi." If you do this, I don't care about the past, maybe you and Chang County Lord married Jiulang as his wife at the same time, anyway, Princess Qingyun has released a rumor to accept you as a righteous daughter, you and Chang Jing are already sisters, since ancient times, the two sisters have served the same husband, and they are all beautiful conversations that have been around for centuries! ”
In other words, she is now marrying Deng Jiulang as a daughter of Qingyun Gongism, which is more in line with the interests of Queen Deng than marrying only Chang Jing?
As soon as Queen Deng's words came out, Liu Jing looked up at her!
Speaking of which, in Queen Deng's heart, she Liu Jing is the chicken rib, which is a bone in her mouth, but it is a piece of meat when she vomits. If she wants to cherish it, she always feels that it is not worth it. But if this piece of meat wants to leave, she feels extremely angry and feels cheated?
Liu Jing looked at Empress Deng lightly.
Perhaps, this queen lady is sincere and doesn't understand what she is insisting on! She didn't understand why Liu Jing didn't compromise with Deng Jiulang, and she didn't want to understand why Liu Jing suddenly fell to Gu Cheng. If it were someone else, maybe she would still be in the mood to figure out the reason, but with Liu Jing, Queen Deng would not have that heart.
She was just thinking about how to place Liu Jing in her best interest. Maybe she also felt that she was willing to give this person who was originally a merchant. A woman with a bad reputation is given the position of an equal wife. That's a great gift!
Liu Jing originally had a lot to explain, but this time she was kidnapped by Gu Cheng, it was really sudden, and she didn't want Deng Jiulang to misunderstand. I also have to think about how to make my position clear.
But at this moment. Heard Empress Deng's words. She didn't want to say anything.
What's the point of explaining to such a person, she thought? If she wants to do it, she will do it herself!
After figuring it out. Liu Jing closed her eyes and said softly: "Queen Mother, Gu Cheng has told his close friend that I am pregnant with his child...... The corners of her lips showed a sneer, Liu Jing said: "Queen Mother, I have lost my name, can I really marry Deng Jialangjun as my wife?" ”
Liu Jing's voice carried a kind of mockery.
This ridicule made Empress Deng unhappy. She stared at Liu Jing for a while, and said slowly: "Gu Cheng's words are unusual, don't pay attention to them." ”
Don't pay attention to Gu Cheng's words, or is she or the county lord of Changjing, as the daughter of Princess Qingyun, the core figure of the eldest prince Liu Sheng's family, she is destined to be lost when she runs out, so does she have a reputation, is it a real pregnancy or a fake pregnancy, is it a smear for the Deng family, and she doesn't need to pay attention to it for the time being? Anyway, she can't sit for long as Deng Jiulang's wife?
If Empress Deng showed a little anger, or showed a little hesitation, Liu Jing would not be so cold.
But now, she clearly felt that in Queen Deng's heart, she had become a waste chess that had to be thrown away after use, and the overwhelming disappointment and anger finally erupted!
Liu Jing raised her head and stared at Empress Deng.
Because of anger, Liu Jing's face was dyed with a layer of red, and under the gloomy light in the hall, it looked even more thrilling and arrogant!
After looking up at Queen Deng for a while, Liu Jing suddenly saluted her and said firmly: "The queen's kindness, Mu Rabbit understands it!" However, the queen mother doesn't know that no matter what kind of situation the wooden rabbit is, she is a free person, and she is a free body! If this sister serves a husband, there is no need for the mother to say it! ”
Speaking of this, Liu Jing bowed down and stepped back!
Seeing that she was about to leave without saying a word, Empress Deng's face turned blue, she suppressed her anger, whispered, and said softly and gently: "Liu, do you know what your refusal means?" ”
What does that mean? Doesn't that mean I've offended you? It's ridiculous, you're ready to treat me like a waste chess piece that I'll throw away when I'm done with it, and you won't allow me to completely tear my face with you?
Liu Jing, who lowered her head, smiled, and she slowly turned her head.
Turning her head to look at Queen Deng, Liu Jing said softly: "Queen Mother, because I like your brother, and because of this liking, I have done many things that noble ladies will not do, and I have tried my best to get close to him, so I let you be cheap?" This truth was only later understood by Liu Jing. The dignified nobles who gracefully guard their pride and the pride of their family look down on her from the bottom of their bones for this kind of behavior of rushing to pay!
When Liu Jing said this, she couldn't help but smile in a trance, laughing and laughing, her eyes sharpened, and her voice became cold, "Yes, a woman who is in a hurry to marry is naturally worthless...... But have you thought about it, the queen mother? Maybe when you think that the concubine who gave me Deng Jiulang is a promotion, I have actually given up your brother, and even more so when your brother has made a marriage contract and his wife has been decided,
My heart has long been cold to the bone. ”
Liu Jing stared at Queen Deng and whispered word by word: "Queen Mother, although your brother is expensive, I am not cheap!" When I like him, I am willing to work hard for him, just to lift myself to the same height as him, but when I give up on him, I also do it from the bottom of my heart and without hesitation! Queen Mother, this Liu family you dislike, as long as she is willing, some good sons are willing to marry her! Even if no one wants to marry, she can also live that good life with the wealth of Allure! Queen Mother, why do you think that the Liu family is still willing to be a waste chess move of your Deng Mansion to this day, automatically sent to you, and let you squeeze it dry and throw it away? ”
Slowly, after expressing her meaning extremely clearly, Liu Jing, who had already torn her face with Queen Deng, bowed deeply to her, and said in a clear voice: "The kindness of the queen's mother, Mu Rabbit understands it!" It's not too early, the rabbit is gone! ”
After that, she no longer paid attention to Queen Deng, flicked her sleeves and turned around and left. As early as when Liu Jing said this, Queen Deng, who was already so angry that her face was blue and her hands and feet trembled, because she was so angry that she couldn't even speak, so she pointed at her with trembling fingers and watched her walk away.
