Chapter 57: Not Qualified to Touch Love
"What do you mean, Lord Wang?"
Ning Liuying was stunned for a moment, and then asked softly.
Yuan Chufeng stretched out his hand and grabbed her shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "It's that this portrait has been damaged again, with you by my side, it's a big deal to paint it again." β
"But......" Ning Liuying suddenly hesitated, "I don't necessarily stay by the prince's side forever, if this portrait is unfortunately damaged in the future, but I am not by the prince's side, what should the prince do?" β
Hearing her words, Yuan Chufeng's face suddenly sank.
The hand he was holding Ning Liuying suddenly tightened, and her shoulder hurt a little.
Although Ning Liuying had pain in her shoulder, she didn't dare to say anything.
She suddenly realized that she might have said the wrong thing.
After a long while, Yuan Chufeng asked in a muffled voice, "Ning Liuying, don't you still want to stay by the king's side?" β
He didn't dare to ask her directly, do you still want to go back to Zhou, do you still want to see the prince of Zhou?
Ning Liuying naturally didn't mean this, all she thought was that she was a reborn person, she was a hater in her previous life, and the original owner was a Zhou Guo, no matter what she did, it would be risky.
In this way, she may suddenly die at any time, or be forced to leave one day, how can she afford Yuan Chufeng's promise to stay by her side forever?
She should stay away from love, not get caught up in it.
It's just that Yuan Chufeng's mood doesn't seem to be very good now, Ning Liuying thought about it again and again, and still explained: "Don't misunderstand, Lord Wang, I just think that things are impermanent, no one knows how things will develop in the future, and I can't make a conclusion right now, it's not that I don't want to stay by the side of Lord Wang." β
"I know how well the prince treats me."
"You know everything?" Yuan Chufeng suddenly laughed meaninglessly, "If you know, why did you steal the Yinluan Sword and the city defense map for him when you were so focused on the prince of the Zhou Kingdom that you were so bent on it?" Was it not good that the king gave it to you in the palace at that time? β
"I ......" Ning Liuying was speechless for a while.
The things that Yuan Chufeng said in his mouth were all really done by the original owner, although the souls under the same body are already different now, but what she has done is what she has done, and all the consequences need to be borne by herself.
Seeing that Ning Liuying didn't say a word, Yuan Chufeng still thought that her guess was true, it turned out that she really wanted to leave his side and return to Zhou to find his crown prince of Zhou.
Yuan Chufeng clenched his fist with his other hand, and his eyes were very cold.
It's just that even so, he is unwilling to let go of Ning Liuying.
After being silent for a long time, Yuan Chufeng opened his mouth lightly.
"It's the king who forgot, you have long since lost your memory...... Nor should the former things be numbered. β
Ning Liuying didn't expect Yuan Chufeng to take the initiative to talk about amnesia, she was stunned, and said softly: "Lord Wang, although I have amnesia now, I won't deny what I did before." If you are not angry in your heart, I will be punished. β
"What nonsense?" Yuan Chufeng pinched Ning Liuying's shoulder lightly, "This king is such a villain who will repay him?" As long as you're willing to stay by my side, it doesn't matter. β
Ben was just a simple promise, but Ning Liuying felt that she couldn't open her mouth.
As a born-again person, how can you be qualified to talk about these feelings and loves.
The number of lives in the future is uncertain, how can you give people promises.
But Ning Liuying was still afraid that Yuan Chufeng would feel uncomfortable, so she still responded softly after a while: "Well, I know what the prince said." β
Seeing Ning Liuying's demeanor, Yuan Chufeng understood that what she was thinking in her heart must be different from what she said, and she suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
thought that the two had a heart-to-heart connection, but unexpectedly, he was still making himself amorous.
It's just to spend more time with her.
After being silent for a while, Yuan Chufeng said in a deep voice: "It's been a long time since you came out, your body is too weak, it's not good to stand outside for a long time, it's time to go back with this king to drink medicine." β
"Yes." Ning Liuying lowered her eyes and replied.
Yuan Chufeng took her hand again, and after leading her out of the secret room, he closed the dark wood, he groped on the bookshelf for a while, and the bookshelves that were divided into two merged into one, and no one could see that there were traces of separation.
After returning to Jiuxiang Courtyard, Xiao Yun had already taken back the freshly fried medicine from the pharmacy and served Ning Liuying to drink it, and Yuan Chufeng naturally stayed in her room that night.
This night, Ning Liuying fell asleep with Yuan Chufeng's arm crooked, but the two of them had their own hearts and minds.
β¦β¦
Since then, Ning Liuying's life has been peaceful.
During the recuperation period, she heard that Qingzhi, who was in the dungeon of the palace, had already been disposed of by Yuan Chufeng, and she was tortured to death in front of the concubines in the palace. This gave the concubines a lot of excitement, and for a while the backyard was very peaceful, and there was no wind and waves at all.
And except for the day after returning from Huixin Pavilion, Yuan Chufeng never stayed in Ning Liuying's room again. The reason he gave was to let Ning Liuying recuperate, and he slept in the study every night, and he didn't even see her.
Ning Liuying was depressed in her heart, but she didn't want to say much.
The conversation in the secret room of Huixin Pavilion that day made Ning Liuying realize some important things.
Her true identity is still Zhou Guo's fine work, this is an invisible bomb, I don't know when the prince of Zhou Guo will give her an order to hurt Yuan Chufeng, and maybe it may affect others.
Thinking of this, Ning Liuying didn't think about tea and dinner, and couldn't sleep well every night.
That night, while she was sleeping lightly, she suddenly heard the howl of a wild cat outside the window.
One after another, very poignant, it woke up Ning Liuying.
"Strange...... How could there be wild cats in the palace......" Ning Liuying muttered to herself.
Out of curiosity, she was finally forced to get out of bed, walk to the wide open window and peek inβ
There was silence all around, and there was nothing.
"Strange, no wonder this wild cat has run away?" Ning Liuying frowned and guessed.
It's just that it's a good thing to have no such terrible howl, Ning Liuying didn't pursue it anymore, she yawned, put this matter behind, and reached out to close the open window.
Suddenly, I only heard a "whoosh" sound, and something flew past Ning Liuying's ear, and then it was nailed tightly to the screen in the house.
"Who is it?" Ning Liuying's heart panicked, and then he shouted.
There was a dead silence all around, and no one answered her.
She turned her head to see a small feathered arrow stuck in the wind of the screen, and a note seemed to be tied to the end of the arrow.
In the dark, Ning Liuying had an ominous premonition.
She cautiously stepped forward and reached out to remove the feather arrow.
I saw that this arrow was exquisitely worked, and it seemed to be made of fine iron, and it was worth a lot of money at first glance. At the same time, there seem to be some unique patterns on the arrow, and if you look closely, it is still a little familiar.
Ning Liuying recalled carefully, and her face changed in an instant.
The weapon of the Zhou Kingdom used by the original owner to assassinate Yuan Chufeng also has the same pattern!
Could it be that Zhou Guo has already come to the door?
With an inexplicable emotion, Ning Liuying hurriedly took down the note at the end of the arrow.
As soon as the note was unfolded, a sentence was written on it in Zhou Guo's secret language.
- "Wandering warbler, see you in three days." β
