Chapter 125: Ambiguity
The atmosphere in the room was tight, and just when they were both eager to take the next step, there was a quick knock on the door outside the house again: "Green kite girl? ”
It's still an old lady who spoils the scenery.
The two paused and looked at each other, both of them crying and laughing.
"Uh, Mama, I just remembered that I have to be on duty tomorrow morning, and I got up too early for fear of waking you up, so I still won't bother tonight."
"On duty?" The old lady felt strange and muttered to herself: "Isn't it me who will be on duty tomorrow morning?" ”
But since she didn't want to sleep with her, the old lady didn't force it anymore.
The two people in the room looked at each other after the shadow on the door disappeared completely, and finally smiled helplessly.
The show was interrupted, and the impulsive idea instantly became absurd, sitting up, Ye Lingyi was a little awkward, tightened the cloak on his body, and whispered: "You turn around first!" ”
The man raised his eyebrows, with a wicked smile on his lips, and said thoughtfully: "It's too dark here for me to see." ”
"You turn around!" Ye Lingyi was persistent, and her tone was coquettish.
"Okay!" Helian Che had no choice but to turn around as he said.
In the dark, Ye Lingyi hurriedly grabbed his shoulder clothes from the bed, put them on indiscriminately, and climbed out of bed again.
"Wait!"
With a tightening of his wrist, Ye Lingyi turned his head to Helian Che's face.
"What are you going to do?"
"Light the lamp! Didn't you just say it was too dark? After saying this, Ye Lingyi remembered that Helian Che had an eye disease, and smiled apologetically, "I forgot, you are not wearing a mask now." ”
"Well, you can put it on for me."
At this moment, Helian Che seemed to be a different person, taking her hand and taking her to his side, with a smile on the corner of his lips and soft eyes, how could he still look like a captain who said the same? It's obviously a coquettish little wolf dog.
Ye Lingyi couldn't help but be stunned, her old face turned red, her heart throbbed like a demon, her face was full of sweetness, she looked around, and finally found the faint light of the mask in the dark.
After carefully putting it on for him, he didn't forget to ask thoughtfully: "Okay?" Will it be too tight? ”
The big hand adjusted the mask slightly, and someone suddenly covered his forehead exaggeratedly, and replied sullenly: "Yes!" It's so tight, my head hurts. ”
"Huh?" Ye Lingyi exclaimed, busy unmasking.
However, just as her fingers were about to touch him, someone suddenly grabbed her hand and took her into her arms.
Losing her center of gravity, she naturally fell into his arms, and before she could react, a warm kiss had already landed on her eyebrows.
"Helian Che, you ......"
She looked embarrassed and annoyed in exchange for a bright smile from the other party, close to her ear, and the voice blew through her heart like an intoxicating spring breeze: "This is to compensate you...... What is not done this time, the next time no one makes trouble, continue to have fun! ”
This......
This is definitely the words of the tiger wolf! Tiger wolf thing! Tiger Wolf Man!
Ye Lingyi's cheeks were as hot as a flame.
Helian Che's hand let go slightly, and Ye Lingyi immediately got up from his arms, and reprimanded with a red face: "Not serious!" ”
After that, he finally walked to the candlestick, took out the fire fold and re-lit the candlestick.
The moment the room lit up, Ye Lingyi found something on the ground.
Bent down to pick it up, and when he looked closely, it was actually a glass vial, looked at it with a puzzled expression for a moment, and asked Helian Che: "What is this?" ”
Helian Che held his temples lazily, propped his elbows on his knees, looked at her with a smile, and deliberately said two words: "Poison." ”
In other words, someone did not hesitate to risk killing his head and went to great lengths to sneak into the palace in order to deliver poison to her?
Who will believe this?
Ye Lingyi rolled her eyes, and said with a smile: "Poison, right?" ”
Nodding, he pulled the lid of the vial and was about to pour it into his mouth.
At this time, Helian Che finally got up in a hurry, stopped her, and couldn't cry or laugh: "I'm joking with you, this medicine is not used to stuff the blood basin, it is used to wipe it!" ”
How does that sound like something is not quite right?
Just when Ye Lingyi was thinking carefully, Helian Che pushed her to the edge of the bed and sat on the edge of the bed, while he squatted down, poured the medicinal powder in the glass vial into the palm of his hand with delicate movements, and lightly dipped the fingers of his other hand a little, raised his hand to her injured cheek, and a deep distress appeared on Junyi's face: "What happened during the day?" Obviously, you are just visiting Han Guifei, how can you get hurt? ”
Ye Lingyi waved his hand indifferently and said, "This little thing is okay!" ”
Helian Che then stopped drugged her, and looked at her meaningfully and quietly, as if waiting for an answer.
Ye Lingyi was stared at so much that her heart was furious, and she turned around in a weak heart to avoid that sight.
But he persevered and took the initiative to meet her eyes.
Ye Lingyi really couldn't help it, so she had to speak: "Actually, there is really nothing!" I promised Han Guifei not to say it! Don't ask! ”
Sure enough, it has something to do with Han Shili.
A trace of coldness crossed the depths of Helian Che's dark pupils, and he immediately said gently: "That killer is going to Han Guifei, you will definitely suffer a loss if you fight alone, don't be so stupid next time!" ”
"You know everything?" Ye Lingyi was taken aback, and when she saw Helian Che's eyes getting deeper and deeper, she reacted: "Are you lying to me?" ”
Helian Che didn't say whether it was or not, and carefully gave her good medicine, before getting up and putting the glass vial in her hand, and advised: "If you don't want to leave a scar, twice a day, remember to rub the medicine on time." ”
Then he got up and walked in the direction of the door.
In a hurry, Ye Lingyi grabbed the corner of his clothes, so that his footsteps had to stop, and asked cautiously: "Are you out of the palace now?" ”
"Hmm." Helian Che replied lightly.
Ye Lingyi was inexplicably flustered: "But now that there is a curfew, the palace gate has been keyed, the guards are heavily guarded, and it is still raining heavily outside......"
"I know." He used special means to enter the palace to deliver medicine to her, where would he not know the key to the palace gate?
"Then ......" Ye Lingyi lowered her eyes, bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly made up her mind to say, "Otherwise, don't you leave tonight, right?" ”
Helian Che seemed to be shocked by her words, and his eyes were full of surprise.
The words had already blurted out, and Ye Lingyi felt that her initiative to stay with a man was too bold, and it sounded like some kind of invitation.
Then he was so embarrassed that his face was red, and he quickly explained: "Don't worry, I just don't want you to take risks, and I don't have any wrong thoughts...... No, I mean you can't think anything wrong...... Uh, no, I'm ......."
The more you explain, the more it seems to be trying to cover up.
Just as she was talking incoherently, a big hand silently covered the top of her head, and said gently: "No need to explain, I understand!" ”
Ye Lingyi raised his head and looked at the pair of eyes that contained the sea of stars, and a restless heart finally settled down.
In the blink of an eye, the night was deep, and the torrential rain did not stop. A flash of red lightning flew across the night sky, thunder was deafening, and raindrops crashed against the roof.
The candles were bright in the room, and a man and a woman were lying side by side, covering a soft mattress, but they did not feel sleepy.
The two of them looked at the ceiling, and the atmosphere was as dreary as if it were frozen for a while.
Ye Lingyi wanted to say something to relieve the embarrassment in her heart, so she spoke: "Concubine Han is actually very pitiful, the killer is obviously rushing towards her, if it weren't for me today, I'm afraid the killer will succeed." ”
Helian Che pillowed his head with his arm, feeling strange: "Concubine Na is overjoyed today, the garrison guards have strengthened their vigilance, and Huaendian has also sent additional manpower, what kind of killer is so powerful that he can escape the eyes of the garrison?" ”
"That's what I find weird!" Ye Lingyi propped up his upper body, counted his doubts and said: "There is only one killer today, but it is more powerful than those blue wolf warriors in the past, she is a woman who is good at making bows, and she is also used to firing three arrows at once, you say, since it is an assassin, why don't you choose a weapon that is easier to hide and use a bow and arrow that is easy to expose?" Also, the strangest thing is that when she appeared, there were no guards outside the Huaen Palace, but there was no one on duty, and it looked like ...... They were deliberately diverted to create an opportunity for the Assassins to carry out their assassinations. Just imagine, who has so much power to openly murder the concubine? ”
"No one on duty?" This attracted Helian Che's attention, and he pondered for a moment and said, "Do you have a suspicion?" ”
Ye Lingyi looked at him, and suddenly whispered in his ear: "Queen Mother!" ”
"Impossible!" Helian Che immediately rejected her conjecture, "Even if the Queen Mother wants to let Concubine Han Guifei, who threatens the status of the Liang family, die, she will never be stupid enough to blatantly transfer people out of the palace on the day of the big day and cause trouble." ”
"Then according to what you say, who else can't tolerate Han Guifei? Could it be that it is the ladies who compete for favor in the palace? ”
Thinking about this speculation, it is even more impossible, Li Yuanlin never entered the harem, and the ladies of the harem are all tools for Empress Liang to exchange for benefits, many of them have never even seen his face, for them, Han Shili's entry into the palace is just one more poor person like them in the palace, let alone competing for favor.
Both knew in their hearts that this guess was impossible, so they fell silent.
After a while, Ye Lingyi sighed faintly: "The group of subordinates in Huaen Hall only said that there was a palace maid who they didn't know and ordered them all to go out, but the palace is so big, where can I go to check the rumored palace maid?" And now, even if you know who is behind it, so what? In order to protect the Han family, Han Guifei was reluctant to investigate deeply. ”
Helian Che's gaze moved from the ceiling to her distressed face, a smile appeared on his lips, he reached out to take her into his arms, and only sighed: "You really write love and hate on your face, I hope I will never become the one you hate." ”
Nestled in his arms, she listened to his heartbeat in distraction, and suddenly came back to her senses only to realize what he had just said, but she didn't hear it clearly.
"What did you say?"
Helian Che's hand around her waist tightened, his chin pressed against her soft hair, and his tone contained a hint of tiredness: "It's nothing." Go to sleep! ”
Under the invasion of sleepiness, Ye Lingyi's doubts finally turned into nothingness, greedily sniffing the good-smelling lavender on his body, and the gradually blurred candlelight in his vision accompanied by the sound of ticking rain finally sent her to a sweet sleep little by little.
