Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Long Conversation Through the Night

Gamble, a bet that she doesn't care about, but she cares about it in her heart.

There are some words that cannot be regarded as deaf to hearing them, such as the news that Lan Lingxuan brought yesterday.

made her feel the frustration for the first time in her life, and the only remaining hope in her heart was also shattered.

That bet, she lost, lost completely, her heart seemed to be hollowed out, and she was completely unconscious.

But all this seemed to have been arranged by God, and at this moment she was burdened with another pain, so that she tasted the pain of Jiao Si and her loved ones in a foreign country, tormenting her heart again and again like a pain in the skin, and accelerating her heart that couldn't wait to leave.

Plans, she needs plans that can not be clever enough, but not carelessly.

The person who can help her will be the one who will never tolerate her, and the one who will definitely do his best to help her leave.

Nangong Luojing had already been thinking about the day of leaving in her heart, and she had already negotiated with the woman, and the time was set, but everything was ready, all she owed was a gust of east wind, an opportunity that would allow her to leave smoothly without any hindrance.

At night, only the roving guards walked back and forth in the corridors of the palace.

The faint yellow palace lamp stretched the figures of the guards to an unusually long time, and the projection on the mottled wall of the trees showed a bit of weirdness.

After the guards had departed, there were a few rustling sounds in the bushes, and in the next moment, several black shadows flashed, heading in the other direction of the palace with their extraordinary skills.

Meng Jingxuan

"Miss, it's late at night, let's go to bed early" Slightly helplessly, Mei'er stared at the woman leaning against the window, struggling for a long time to break the silence of the room.

Staring at the white clothes, she lost her mind slightly, and that day she knew that she was the same woman as her, and she had an unchangeable thought in her heart: no wonder the king had a soft spot for her.

To tell the truth, she is the most beautiful woman she has ever seen in her life, but she also feels that she is the most difficult woman to serve, she does not know her identity, only that the rumors spread wantonly in the palace that day, the palace people know that the son who originally lived in Mengjing Xuan turned out to be red makeup, and she has been serving this mysterious woman, naturally she is regarded by the palace people as a red man next to the king, flattering, flattering.

It's just that this mysterious woman always doesn't say a word, doesn't seem to say a word, and doesn't laugh with her as a "close maid" in ordinary times, she has the status of a goddess in her heart, that's why she feels that this woman can only be watched from a distance and not blasphemous, let alone let her talk, although she has a good feeling, but she always gives her an inexplicable sense of distance, so she doesn't like this amazing woman.

The woman by the window stood motionless in front of the window as if she had not heard what she was saying, as if she was pondering something and as if she had not thought of anything, just staring indifferently at the inky night outside the window.

"Miss" took a step closer, Mei'er looked at the figure of the woman in front of her with a little worry, not really worried about the woman in front of her, but if she made any mistakes, the king would definitely not let her go, so she would serve this difficult lord with all her heart, and her heart was full of reluctance, ten thousand reluctance

"Hmm" seemed to hear the sound that fell, Nangong Luo Jing gathered his thoughts little by little, and the confusion in front of him seemed to have decreased a little: "Go down, you don't need to do anything here" Nangong Luo Jing never looked up at the woman beside him, and said quietly.

"The night is heavy and dewy, I'm afraid that I will catch a cold, so it's better for Miss to rest early, thinking that tomorrow's festival will be a day."

"Got it, you go down first" interrupting Mei'er's words, Nangong Luojing took a deep breath, and the turmoil in her heart already made her unable to think normally, not to mention that there was a verbose girl like Mei'er by her side, and her heart was even more disturbed, so she didn't hear what Mei'er was going to say, so she interrupted her words first.

"Yes" Hearing the hint of impatience revealed in the soft timbre, Mei'er felt a trace of grievance in her heart, and turned away from looking at the woman again.

"Wait" after chewing repeatedly before interrupting, Nangong Luo Jing reacted suddenly.

Mer turned around, and her eyes fell on the woman's beautiful face with a smile of surprise and surprise, and she couldn't make any evaluation of this mysterious woman in her heart.

"Repeat what you just said again, okay, you mean to sacrifice to the sky, right" The ups and downs of her emotions made her suddenly lose her usual indifference, and a trace of fire ignited in her heart spread in an instant, and at this moment, Nangong Luo Jing couldn't calm the excitement in her heart, so she could only let it rise and spread.

"Yes, yes" Mei'er stared at Nangong Luojing's changes, she was very surprised in her heart, and answered Nangong Luojing's question with a squeak.

She had told her about it this morning, and if she remembered correctly, she had only answered lightly at that time, and there was not such a big reaction, but the woman in front of her seemed to be very surprised by what she had said.

"Mei'er, do you know where the sacrifice will be" Nangong Luojing walked in front of Mei'er, and looked at Mei'er's surprised expression, the irrepressible joy in her heart made her lose control, and there was a hint of excitement in her voice.

"Yes, it's in the Temple of Heaven" was stared at by those clear and beautiful eyes, Mei'er only felt that she had become a little humble, and even her voice became trembling.

"The king has arrived" A sharp voice disrupted Nangong Luojing's thoughts, and also covered up Mei'er's voice a little.

Didn't hear what Mei Er said, Nangong Luo Jing twisted her eyebrows, raised her eyes to look at the light that suddenly lit up outside the door, her heart tightened, and she secretly slandered in her heart: It's so late, why did Lan Lingxuan come to Mengjing Xuan.

Just when Nangong Luo Jing was secretly speculating, Lan Lingxuan had already stepped into the room.

The eyes gently swept everything in the room, and finally settled on the woman who was lightly veiled, and the light gauze revealed the woman's graceful figure, and then glanced at that beautiful face, the unconcealable relief and excitement on that face were many of the scenery he had not seen, and in that beautiful eye, it seemed to hide a trace of emotion, and did not want him to discover the emotion.

After staring for a moment, Lan Lingxuan made a gesture to Mei'er to signal her to stand down.

Seeing that Lan Lingxuan waved back left and right, and even Mei'er was driven out of the room by him, Nangong Luo Jing's face was slightly unnatural, and a slightly far-fetched smile rose on his lips: "It's late at night, Dongwang has come to Mengjing Xuan with such a Yaxing, does he want to play chess with Luo Jing, or tea?"

Seeing that she hid the excitement on her face, and then listened to her words, Lan Lingxuan couldn't help frowning, and said with some displeasure: "Playing chess, Mingcha really regards this king as a plaything and loses his mind,"

Seeing a trace of displeasure on his face, coupled with the strong smell of gunpowder in his words, Nangong Luojing was surprised in his heart, but he was only secretly thinking about why in his heart.

"Luo Jing didn't mean this, the East King misinterpreted"

"Misinterpretation, this king doesn't hear any other meaning" The anger gradually rose, and even there was a trace of anger in his voice, until the voice fell, and the ups and downs in his chest lost its original rhythm, Lan Lingxuan suddenly realized that he had lost his temper in front of her, and even transferred his anger to her.

"The king dissected Luo Jing's words layer after layer, there was no one, and it was also interpreted by the king as yes, Luo Jing couldn't argue" Nangong Luo Jing lowered her eyes, no longer said anything, looked at anything, and her intuition told her that Lan Lingxuan was so angry for no reason, presumably something happened that made him so angry, but she didn't know what it was.

"This king is just upset, and he didn't think about taking his anger out on you" I'm really sorry for the apology in my mouth, Lan Lingxuan is not used to saying sorry to people, so no matter what, he can't say it.

The anger subsided a little, Lan Lingxuan walked towards the soft collapse that spread all over the country with a dejected face, leaning against the soft collapse, and on his handsome face was the loss and decadence that Nangong Luo Jing had never seen before.

"Why is the East King annoyed" deeply felt the apology in the words, which made Nangong Luo Jing understand, the Lan Lingxuan in front of her made her overwhelmed, she couldn't see what kind of look was in those drooping eyes, she only knew that he seemed to be troubled by something.

"Those ministers in the court who are old and self-respecting, each of them regards this king as a useless faint king, which of them puts this king in their eyes, and who really does things for this king" The flames that were calmed down were touched by Nangong Luo Jing's voice, and Lan Lingxuan's anger became deeper and deeper.

The minister of the court, Nangong Luo Jing never knew that Lan Lingxuan actually only controlled half of Dongyang's military power, and the other half of the power was all in the hands of the rightists led by Lan Lingxu in the court.

And tonight, it was the disagreement between the two groups of people that made Lan Lingxuan so angry.

"They were the ones who supported this king in the first place, and they are the same ones who have pushed this king to extinction today, when will they make this king their king"

Moving to the window, Nangong Luo Jing still maintained the silence he should have, listening to Lan Lingxuan's unhappiness in his stomach, looking for an opportune time to make a suggestion in his heart.

"Monarchs and ministers, the king of the east is the king, they are the ministers, this is an invisible chasm, why should the king of the east be entangled in whether they are sincere or not" leisurely explained what Lan Lingxuan was annoyed about, she didn't understand the so-called politics, she only knew that some things were originally like this.
