Chapter 177: Misunderstanding
The ornate buildings are located in the most prosperous part of the city, so even at night they are not swallowed up by darkness.
Under the eaves of the bucket arch hangs the bead lamp of glazed texture, on which there are patterns carefully cut out with bright gold leaf, there are birds, fish and insects, people and houses, trees and clouds, the wind blows the lamp and turns up, those patterns are intertwined in front of the eyes as if alive, forming a vivid picture of life.
A long plate can be seen below, with the book "Wangjiang Building", and the three golden characters are vigorous and powerful.
Further down is the private room on the third floor of Wangjiang Building, which is specially used to receive distinguished guests, with its own viewing verandah, standing by the railing can have an unobstructed view of the Mianhe River.
"Master, do you really believe that woman's words?" Qing Feng looked worriedly at the long figure standing on the edge of the railing.
The man was silent, his deep gaze resting on the surface of the sparkling river, the scattered moonlight was broken into countless pieces, and the sparkling river water was like a white firefly flying freely.
The cold river breeze blew through the beautiful face, and the ink hair was slightly raised.
"Master, you can't stop talking, I know that you are very anxious when the green kite is gone, but it has been twenty days, and there has been no news of her, we are so heavily guarded, and we have rummaged through the entire Tokyo city countless times, and now it is just a random woman who does not know the details and says that she knows the news of the green kite, and you will believe it," Qing Feng paused, looked at Helian Che's back with scruples, and continued: "With all due respect to his subordinates, the master has placed a high reward order in Tokyo City to find clues about the green kite, In the past few days, the so-called insiders have almost broken down the gate of Helian Mansion, but the results are all for the bounty without exception, and some people don't even know what the green kite is. ”
In fact, he didn't know what he said.
It's just that......
"Qingfeng," sighed lightly, and the man looked back, describing himself haggard, his eyes sad, and laughing helplessly: "I can't lose her!" ”
So if there is a glimmer of hope to find her, he will never give up.
Qing Feng felt sympathy and worry for such Helian Che, breathed a long sigh of relief, looked up at the churning sea of ink in the sky, and sighed secretly: Qing Kite, where are you?
At the same time, in the darkless corner under the Wangjiang Tower, a man and a woman were staring at the Wangjiang Tower.
The woman stared at the handsome figure at the railing, and the hatred that had been accumulated in her heart suddenly turned into an urgent mood, and she was eager to rush over to ask about the events of that night, just because she heard someone on the street just now discussing the night of Helian Zhu's death, and the guards in the palace captured a cadre of Cheng Ji alive in the Taishi Mansion, which made her originally dry heart re-active the moment she heard the news.
As far as she knew, Cheng Ji had colluded with Helian Zhu.
That night, Helian Che decided to kill Helian Zhu, and the reason why Cheng Ji's subordinates appeared in the Taishi Mansion must be to save Helian Zhu.
That's why Helian Che left her in a hurry, because he had to kill him before Cheng Ji's general rescued Helian Zhu, otherwise, the felony of murdering the Taishi and his adoptive father would definitely make Helian Che pay a heavier price than his life.
Thinking of this, she suddenly understood him a little.
She thought that the enmity of his parents was greater than the sky, and Helian Che must not have deliberately abandoned him, because his hatred with Helian was too deep, maybe he wanted to take revenge through the wedding, but he never wanted to hurt her.
Or perhaps, the woman who shot the fatal arrow at her was not Helian Che's person at all, but just took advantage of the chaos to sneak into Qingfeng's team to rescue her.
The moment she saw him again, she tried to justify him in her heart and convince herself to accept the reason.
She thought she could forgive him, and nothing had happened.
But the cruel reality soon showed her how stupid and ridiculous the consequences of indulging her heart were.
Just when Ye Lingyi couldn't help but want to go to Helian Che, there were suddenly more hurried figures in his scorching sight, wearing an ankle-length red cloak, wearing a black gauze hat, and carrying a bow and quiver on his back, and he drilled into the Wangjiang Tower like a gust of wind.
Although she was in a hurry, Ye Lingyi quickly recognized this figure.
It was the woman who was behind Qingfeng that day.
Not only that, but several images flashed in my mind with this figure - Han Shili's assassination and the archers who led people to encircle and suppress Ye Zhenzhen in front of the imperial gate.
It's all her!
Ye Lingyi was stunned, and suddenly had an ominous premonition in her heart.
Wan Yan Naqi, who was beside him, saw that she couldn't come back to her senses for a long time, so she had to push her arm and ask suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Suddenly waking up, Ye Lingyi didn't say a word, looked at the cornices hanging with bead lanterns, and vowed to find out the truth.
Activate the claw on the arm and a steel wire pops out that will hook on the cornice.
The next moment, the thin figure settled on the roof of Wangjiang Tower as lightly as a cat.
The remaining Wanyan Naqi was alone in the corner, anxious: "I said that you are a woman, why don't you play cards according to common sense?" I didn't know if I wanted to go up, but fortunately I was witty, and I got a claw from Adong just in case! ”
In the private room on the third floor of Wangjiang Building.
"You say you know the whereabouts of the kite?" Helian Che stood in front of the window of the private room, with his back to the sleeping river outside the window, looking calm.
The woman in the red cloak and black hat stood in the private room, not answering Helenche's questions.
Qing Feng frowned and said sharply, "Didn't you hear the adults asking you?" ”
The woman still did not speak, but lifted the curtain that covered her face with her slightly rough hands, revealing a face with a wicked smile.
"Master......" Qing Feng felt that something was wrong with this woman, and looked at Helian Che, as if waiting for him to give the order to take someone.
Helian Che only frowned deeply, and his beautiful eyes were full of doubt.
When it is small, the tiles above the head are slightly ringing.
Before Qingfeng and Helian Che noticed, the woman suddenly rushed to Qingfeng's side like crazy, pressed his hand and pulled out the saber, put it against her neck, and shouted out of control: "Master, you can't do this!" I'm here to do it for you! You can't kill me! ”
"What are you talking about, you crazy woman?" Qing Feng frowned, and tried his best to snatch the hand holding the knife back from the woman's hand, but when he broke free, he accidentally cut the skin of the woman's neck, and the bright red blood suddenly overflowed.
The woman's eyes were full of calculation, and she "fell" to the ground, and the angle of her side was just enough for the person on the roof to see the scar on her neck.
The woman sobbed, looking really aggrieved to the extreme: "What the slave family said is the truth, the slave family has always been doing things for the master, the master said that Han Shili was recommended by the old thief to the palace of Helian Note, and the slave family desperately assassinated regardless of their own safety, and the master said that in order to make better use of the green kite, let the slave family make a big scene of ambush at the royal gate and then solve it by the master, and the slave family also did it, so the master won the trust of the green kite, so that he thought that the master was sincerely in love with her, and on the night of the wedding, The master was determined to kill Helian Zhu, and was afraid that Helian Zhu would use the emperor's favored green kite to find a way out of life in the future, so he ordered the slave family to go to the back road of Helian Note forever. All of this is what the master asked the slave family to do! Now how can the green kite who fled secretly go to the emperor to complain, and the unsuccessful search for evil will anger the slave family? ”
The people on the roof heard it clearly, and their hearts sank into the cold abyss.
So it was.
Did he really never love her?
It's ridiculous that she didn't give up until a moment ago, immersed in self-woven fantasies, although he hurt her and almost killed her, but she still couldn't let go of him, she would rather deceive herself, rather think of a reason for him to coax herself, thinking that she had left a way back for love, and now she will only seem to be stupid and deceitful, and she is willing to become a plaything between his palms.
Is there a more ridiculous joke in the world?
A moment of grievance, anger and humiliation, a heart-rending pain shuttled back and forth in her body, as if it was about to pierce and shatter her.
Ye Lingyi competed with herself, rounded her eyes and tried not to let her emotions leak, but Douda's tears still overflowed her eyes unconsciously, sliding down her cheeks to her jaw.
She was still in pain, unable to come back to her senses.
But the man next to him was at a loss, like a child who had done something wrong, and lowered his voice: "Don't cry, you ......"
I really couldn't think of good words of comfort, so I had to say: "There is no grass at the end of the world!" ”
Ye Lingyi replied with a fierce look.
Men are all the same, not a single good thing!
Wan Yan Naqi weakly shrunk his neck, not daring to speak again.
In Ye Lingyi's opinion, everything has been answered, so she doesn't plan to listen to it anymore.
only glared at the handsome man under his eyes: "Helian Che, I am stupid and gullible in all the past, one day you will pay the price of blood for what you have done!" ”
Got up, activated his claws along the eaves, and the thin figure immediately swept through the bustling night market in Tokyo like a floating shadow.
Wan Yan Naqi saw her departing figure in her eyes, and did not pull her legs to chase after her, and her gradually deepened eyes were imprinted with the sea of ink and the full moon on the horizon, and the handsome face full of wildness was extremely dark.
His gaze fell back to the private room below.
"The play is over?" Helian Che sneered, "It's reasonable, but this acting is too clumsy, if your master wasn't blind and stupid, how could he send you such a ninth-rate?" You say yes, right? The one on the beam! ”
Worst! It's been discovered!
Wan Yan Naqi's heart was shocked, and he was about to pull his legs away, but unfortunately it was too late.
The tiles under his feet were smashed with a tea cup from underneath, and suddenly collapsed.
After Yan Naqi, he was like a futilely struggling fish in a net pocket, falling to the ground with the collapsed tiles.
The slender fingers were as beautiful as jade chopsticks, and he pinched a tea cup again, leaned to his thin lips and pursed his mouth lightly, looking at Wan Yan Naqi who was embarrassed from the broken tiles with a smile: "Third prince, why is it not appropriate to put a good prince of Heishuibu, and you have to be a gentleman on the beam who can't get on the table?" ”
After Yan accepted his gray face, he was embarrassed to straighten the clothes on his body, glanced at the woman in red with a shocked face, quickly calmed down, and smiled: "Captain Helian is so good!" ”
Helian Che's eyes gradually turned cold, his fingers holding the cup turned slightly white, and he said coldly: "You arranged today's play, right?" ”
Wan Yan Naqi stood up straight and generously admitted: "Yes! ”
"I remember, I said that if you stay in the Western Dynasty any longer, I can't guarantee what will happen, right?"
After Helian Che finished speaking, Qing Feng's eyes were sharp, and he immediately drew his knife.
Wan Yan Naqi laughed nonchalantly: "Shouldn't you be more curious about who this play is for?" ”
Speaking of this, Helian Che's face suddenly changed, he became panicked, and the tea in the cup in his hand splashed unsteadily.
Hurriedly got up and looked at Wan Yan Naqi urgently: "It's a green kite!" ”
Wanyan accepted his pride and did not say no, but judging from his performance, the answer is obvious.
Helian Che was like losing his soul, recalling the words arranged by the woman in red just now, and suddenly his heart was so anxious that he couldn't stand anymore, and turned his head to chase after him.
The remaining Qingfeng angrily glanced at Yan Naqi and the woman in red, and finally chose to chase him out because he was not worried about Helian Che.
