Chapter 496: Lying

At the door of Su Mian's room, Lin Qingqing had been standing for a long time, raising his hand several times, wanting to knock on the door, but finally retracted hesitantly, and never had the courage to enter.

She can no longer get along with Su Mian without scruples like she did at the beginning, and she always has some pimples in her heart.

Before he could hesitate, Qiushuang came out of it, and she was surprised to see her: "Miss Lin, when did you come, why didn't you come in, it's so cold outside, don't freeze, come in." ”

Qiushuang naturally knew that Su Mian valued Lin Qingqing's friend very much, so she was respectful to her.

Lin Qingqing smiled stubbornly, the curvature of the corners of his mouth was a little stiff, and as he walked inside, he asked, "Is Ah Mian feeling better?" ”

Qiushuang nodded and said slowly: "Niangniang has woken up, but I don't know what happened, so I slept on the bed and didn't speak, the state looked really scary, Miss Lin, you came just right, and you can still talk to Niangniang." ”

Lin Qingqing frowned, his face full of worry.

When I entered the room, I saw Su Mian staring at the top of the bed with her eyes open, the person was awake, but her expression was numb, her eyes were empty, and she didn't look angry.

Lin Qingqing's heart tugged suddenly, he hurriedly walked over and sat down, and said softly: "Ah Mian, are you okay?" ”

Su Mian heard her voice, glanced at her sideways, her eyes were still indifferent and indifferent, she only pulled the corners of her mouth perfunctorily, and said slowly: "Qingqing, you're here, I'm fine." ”

"What's your name like that, it's good?" Lin Qingqing became anxious when he heard this, and his tone became heavier, "Ah Mian, you have always been positive and optimistic, I always thought that even if everyone around you needs enlightenment and comfort, you must be different, so what is going on, you tell me, let's find a way to solve it together?" Don't do that. ”

Su Mian raised her eyelids, her empty pupils stared at Lin Qingqing tightly, and she whispered in confusion and helplessness: "Qingqing, do you dare to believe it, someone told me that Gu Zhixing is dead, I don't believe it, I want to go into the palace to ask the emperor, I want to ask what he asked Gu Zhixing to do in the south, and when Gu Zhixing will come back, but he doesn't see me, I can't confirm the authenticity of this news." ”

"What...... What the? Lin Qingqing's eyes were full of surprise, as if he had heard something incredible, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his expression was solemn, "Who told you, how is this possible?" ”

Lin Qingqing also didn't want to believe that Gu Zhixing was dead.

Such an important matter, why is there no rumor at all in the capital.

And in Lin Qingqing's view, Gu Zhixing is very powerful, and he was once a man at the top of the Western Saint's power.

Although he has gradually given his power to Gu Zhao now, he is still the regent of the famous and famous, how could such a person die so quietly.

Su Mian lowered his eyes, his expression was numb, and he said palely, word by word: "You don't believe it either, right, how could Gu Zhixing die, he obviously promised me that he would come back safely, if he dares to lie to me, I will ...... I don't want him. ”

As she spoke, Su Mian clutched the quilt tightly with both hands, so hard that her knuckles turned white, obviously wanting to show that she was not worried at all, but her trembling voice and crying had completely betrayed her.

"No, he won't lie to you, there must be something wrong, Mian, don't worry." Lin Qingqing applied to hold Su Mian's hand, Qingqing let go of her fingers, and said softly in a reassuring tone, "It must be someone with a heart who deliberately told you the wrong news and wanted to mislead you, don't worry." ”

How can it not be in a hurry.

In fact, although what he said was false, Su Mian already believed it in his heart.

There is no way, what Shen Ningjie said is reasonable, there is no mistake or omission, and there is no unreasonableness, it doesn't seem to be made up at all.

The people who went to the south haven't come back yet, because they can't come back, and someone in the court is secretly messing around, and it must be this person who designed to get rid of Gu Zhixing.

Thinking like this, Su Mian bounced up from the bed, his face turned pale, and he said resolutely: "No, I can't sit still, I can't let him hurt more people, I want to enter the palace, there must be a way to see Your Majesty." ”

She was in a hurry to lift the quilt and get out of bed, but Lin Qingqing pressed her shoulders hard.

Lin Qingqing was also anxious, but he was more worried about Su Mian, and hurriedly said: "Ah Mian, don't worry, you went to try it in the morning, the emperor won't see you at this time, it's useless for you to watch now, and your body is not well, how can you go out to blow the cold wind now?" Don't find out what is going on, you fall first, Ah Mian, since we don't believe this thing is true, then don't be too angry about it, okay? ”

Lin Qingqing didn't know how Su Mian had so much strength.

obviously looked weak, but he used all his strength, and he was almost thrown away by Su Mian.

There was no way, Lin Qingqing could only hug Su Mian's whole person tightly, and persuaded him earnestly: "Ah Mian, can you calm down first?" ”

Su Mian struggled for a long time, and finally seemed to have no strength, and slowly quieted down in Lin Qingqing's arms. 202 eBooks

But this quietness made Lin Qingqing worry even more.

Because she heard a very soft suppressed sob, Su Mian leaned her head on her shoulder, tears dripping down one by one, but she bit her lip desperately, not wanting herself to cry.

Lin Qingqing sighed slightly, reached out and patted Su Mian's back gently, and slowly comforted: "Cry, just cry, cry as if nothing happened, all this is fake." ”

If Su Mian had been so depressed, Lin Qingqing was worried that her body would not be able to bear it.

Now that I can cry, it's a little more reassuring.

Su Mian cried for a long time, and she was so tired that she fell asleep, Lin Qingqing guarded her by the bed for a while, wiped her face with a warm towel, and then left.

As a result, as soon as she came out of the palace, she bumped into Lianxin, who had been waiting for her outside.

The moment he saw Lianxin, Lin Qingqing's footsteps turned, and he subconsciously wanted to escape.

Lianxin wouldn't give her this opportunity, and walked straight towards her, blocking in front of her, with a very arrogant attitude and a blunt tone: "Miss Lin, you have finally come out, our princess has been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Lin Qingqing's gaze looked behind Lian Xin and at the carriage parked across the road.

Didn't Gong Qianxue leave before?

Why did she come back again, and it seems that she came back to find her.

Just met with Su Mian, and was faced with Gong Qianxue again at this moment, Lin Qingqing felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, his head was messy, and the official didn't know how to deal with it, so he subconsciously refused: "If it's not important, I want to go back first, it's not too early, I'll go to the academy to find your princess another day." ”

She turned around and wanted to leave, but how could Lianxin give her a direct chance, Lianxin blocked Lin Qingqing with a cold face, squinted her eyes with a sense of condescending intimidation, and said sharply: "Miss Lin, didn't we discuss with you, or did you turn your head and forget what you promised?" ”

Lin Qingqing gritted his teeth, the hand hanging by his side subconsciously clenched into a fist, and reluctantly followed Lianxin into the carriage.

On the carriage, Gong Qianxue, who had been waiting for a long time, had long run out of patience, and as soon as Lin Qingqing got up, she asked anxiously: "Did Su Mian tell you anything, why did she go to the palace, is it related to Gu Zhixing?" ”

The news that Gong Yuming overheard made Gong Qianxue unable to calm down, and her tone was naturally not very good.

Lin Qingqing guessed early in the morning that she would ask Su Mian about it, and after calming down for two seconds, she lied without changing her face: "I heard that she came to visit her sickly, she hasn't woken up yet, what can she say to me, I talked to her climate Qiushuang, Qiushuang doesn't know what happened to Su Mian, and I don't know if it will have anything to do with the prince." ”

She said this calmly and calmly, and she didn't breathe a little.

But Gong Qianxue was not so easy to fool, she stared at Lin Qingqing with a gloomy face, and questioned: "Can you talk to her maid for so long?" And Su Mian just fainted from the wind and cold, how could she not wake up for so long, you dare to lie to me? ”

In an instant, there was already murderous intent in her eyes.

Lin Qingqing was a little nervous, her fingers were mixed together at a loss, her fingertips were white, but she still gritted her teeth and insisted: "That's what I said, I stayed for so long just to wait for Su Mian to wake up, but she never woke up, she kept having a fever, she was confused, and she kept calling the name of the prince in her sleep, maybe it was really related to the prince." ”

Since the legal idea is to lie, after the first sentence is spoken, the rest of the lie is much simpler, Lin Qingqing's tone is particularly stable: "I came here this time, I just wanted to maintain the relationship with Su Mian, so that she would not doubt me, but she has not woken up, and I don't want to continue to waste time, anyway, her maid will tell her the news that I have come." ”

Gong Qianxue still didn't believe it, her eyes fell on Lin Qingqing's shoulder, and she pulled the corners of her mouth mockingly: "What's that on your shoulder?" ”

Lin Qingqing glanced sideways, her face stiffened for a moment, it was Su Mian leaning on her shoulder and crying just now, tears wet her clothes, the clothes she was wearing today were relatively light in color, so the wet stains were particularly obvious.

Although he couldn't hold his breath a little, Lin Qingqing calmed down quickly, and said with a slow smile: "It's just sweat, Su Mian is frostbitten, the temperature of the charcoal fire in her room is relatively high, I've been here for so long, it's normal to sweat a little on my body, right?" ”

Lin Qingqing knew exactly what Gong Qianxue was thinking about Gu Zhixing, so she just didn't want to tell her about Gu Zhixing and Su Mian.

If what she wanted to ask today wasn't related to Gu Zhixing, maybe Lin Qingqing wouldn't have lied.

But obviously, even if she tried hard to hide it, Gong Qianxue didn't trust it, her eyes were full of doubt, and she stared at Lin Qingqing's eyes with compassion and asked, "Really?" ”

If you let her know that Lin Qingqing dares to lie and lie to her, she must be good-looking.
