(Red Face and Tears Chapter 16) The people behind the scenes
"You...... You guys...... Kill him?"
The woman in front of her, Lin Zhiyun, is not completely unfamiliar, because she is the one who had a relationship with her when she was in the courtyard just now, and was called "the girl in the dress" by Zeng Gongcheng.
Zeng Gong admitted him...... He's dead?"
"Yes. ”
seemed to know the panic in Lin Zhiyun's heart, so after a squirming sound, the man finally walked out slowly from behind the screen.
"It is not a pity to die for such a person who makes an opinion, deceives the Lord, and bullies others. ”
"You...... You ......"
As soon as that person appeared, Lin Zhiyun couldn't help but freeze in place. In this world, there is such an evil and infinitely beautiful person! She thought that the girl in the dress was already the most bewitching person she had ever seen, but she didn't expect it...... Unexpectedly, the person in front of him, dressed in light green clothes, was obviously a man, but his gestures, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of style.
"Huh. ”
Seeing Lin Zhiyun's reaction, Ling Youli hooked his lips and smiled.
"Mrs. Ye, please be seated. ”
"You ......"
"It's you!"
When Ling Youli wanted to reach out and help Lin Zhiyun to sit down on the stool, the heavy door curtain was suddenly lifted from the outside, and then Nangong Qiyue, who had been missing all along, walked in quickly.
"It turned out to be ...... Me?"
Looking at Nangong Qiyue, who was staring at him a little incredulously and a little vigilantly, Ling Youli chuckled.
"Do you recognize me?"
"You...... Don't you know me?"
Ling Youli's words made Nangong Qiyue stunned. Then Nangong Qiyue carefully looked at the person in front of him, but found that this person did not have any spiritual cultivation in his body.
"I recognized the wrong person. ”
"Oh?"
"Bold!"
Hearing Nangong Qiyue's words, the smile on Ling Youli's face remained unchanged, but Qu Luosheng, who was standing behind him, scolded lightly: "Who are you, dare to be disrespectful to adults?"
"Falling clothes. ”
Patting Qu Luoshang's arm, Ling Youli turned to Lin Zhiyun and Nangong Qiyue and said, "The subordinates are rude, which makes the two of you laugh." ”
"Your Excellency?"
Qu Luosheng's address to Ling Youli made Nangong Qi Yue understand the identity of the person in front of him.
"You are the mastermind who planned the matter of Fengli City and Chunli City?"
"Mastermind?"
Nangong Qiyue's words made Ling Youli's smile from the corner of his lips slightly restrained.
"I don't really like it. ”
“......”
Nangong Qiyue was silent, at this time he was thinking in his heart, the residence of the person behind the curtain he heard about last night was not this Bilian Courtyard, and the person he saw last night who was called "adult" by the subordinates was not the person in front of ......him? What the hell is going on?
"Nangong Gongzi?"
Seeing that Nangong Qiyue was contemplating her eyebrows and thinking about something, although Lin Zhiyun didn't want to disturb him, after all, now that she was in the enemy camp and had limited time, it was better to solve the matter as soon as possible.
So she walked to Nangong Qiyue's side and called softly.
"Huh?"
Nangong Qi Yue came back to his senses, he looked at Ling Youli, who was also staring at him, with a complicated expression, and said, "Have you made up your mind to lead Feng Licheng into trouble and pull Chunli City into the water?"
"Pull down the water?"
Ling Youli shook his head and chuckled.
Now that the vassal kings of various places are in rebellion, and we have raised an army against the vassal kings, if it is done, then we will naturally be the great heroes of this prophecy country, and we will surely enjoy the glory and wealth in the days to come. I see that Fengli City and Chunli City have had a deep friendship since ancient times, so now that there is such a good opportunity, I naturally want the people of the two cities to share the glory. ”
"What if it doesn't work?"
Ling Youli's words made Nangong Qiyue's brows furrow even tighter.
"Then you are pulling the people of the two cities to accompany the funeral. ”
"No, no, no. ”
Ling Youli shook his head.
"Although Fengli City and Chunli City are located in remote areas, they are rich in products and convenient transportation, so although the strength of these two cities is not as good as that of the imperial city, it is much stronger than ordinary cities. Because of this, the defenders of these two cities were well-equipped and well-stocked, and it was not difficult to win a battle against the vassal king. ”
"But the people in the city just want to live in peace. ”
Although Ling Youli's words seemed to have some truth, Lin Zhiyun still didn't want to see the land where he grew up being invaded by war.
"You're just wishful thinking, have you ever asked the people what they want?"
"Am I wishful thinking?"
Lin Zhiyun's words made Ling Youli laugh.
"Since Mrs. Ye said so, why don't Mrs. Ye personally ask the people in this city to see if they want to live here for a lifetime, or do they want to fight hard and soar in the future?"
"What do you mean by that?"
"I mean, it's the people's desire to raise an army against the feudal domain. ”
Ling Youli smiled and said, "People, how many people are willing to do nothing for generations and live their whole lives?"
"Then even if you lead the troops to suppress the vassal king, the one who finally decides your glory and wealth is still the person in the imperial city, isn't it?"
Signaling Lin Zhiyun not to speak first, Nangong Qiyue stared at Ling Youli, who was looking at her with interest.
"In that case, instead of associating your own glory to others, why not just make yourself the one in charge of it?"
"Hehe, that's kind of interesting. ”
Ling Youli's eyes changed, and then he took two steps closer to Nangong Qiyue.
"Do you mean to let me level the vassal king and then go straight to the imperial city?"
"Yes. ”
didn't seem to feel how rebellious and shocking his words sounded to others, Nangong Qiyue continued: "Instead of being controlled by others, it is better to become a person who controls people." ”
"Hehehe. ”
After chuckling a few times, Ling Youli said, "Your idea sounds pretty good. And if I obey you, will you do with me?"
"Yes. ”
Nangong Qiyue nodded.
"But the premise is that you have to let go of the people of the Ye family, and you can't embarrass the people of the Ye family in the future. ”
"Absolutely. ”
Appreciating Nangong Qiyue's decisiveness, Ling Youli smiled and said: "The Ye family's reputation is outside, and I have no intention of making enemies with the Ye family. The person sent by the Lord was in a dilemma for Master Ye before, and as soon as I came here this morning, I had already disposed of him and taken his place, I can guarantee that if I am here in the future, no one will dare to embarrass the Ye family. ”
"So it wasn't you last night?"
Ling Youli's words made Nangong Qiyue suddenly realize.
"Last night?"
Ling Youli was a little surprised, but then looked at Nangong Qiyue, who had a little blood on his sleeve.
"As soon as I came this morning, I heard that the person before was stabbed last night, and the person who stabbed him was you?"
"It's me. ”
Nangong Qiyue nodded generously in acknowledgement.
"Your Excellency is so daring!"
Ling Youli praised.
"Then the people of the Ye family can leave safely?"
I didn't want to talk to Ling Youli, a person who was a mortal but could still give him a sense of crisis, Nangong Qiyue asked.
"Yes. ”
Ling Youli nodded.
"I said, I won't be embarrassed by the Ye family. ”
"Hmm. ”
In response to Ling Youli's voice, Nangong Qiyue motioned for Lin Zhiyun to walk out of the door with him.
......
"Luoshang, what do you think of this person?"
After Nangong Qiyue and the two left, Ling Youli walked back to sit down behind the screen and asked the person who was following him.
"Yes. ”
Qu Luoshang's hand shaking the folding fan slowly stopped.
"But the adults are still a little wary of him, and he is not a person who can be manipulated by others. ”
"Really?"
Ling Youli's eyes narrowed slightly, and the corners of his mouth raised a meaningful smile.
"Luoshang, you're just too suspicious. Aren't you tired every day?"
"Tired. ”
Shaking the folding fan in his hand again, Qu Luoshang lowered his head to "look" at the person lying on the soft collapse of the kimono.
"But Luo Shang doesn't want any crisis around adults. ”
"Oh, you!"
Holding Qu Luoshang's warm fingers with pity, Ling Youli remembered something, and asked again: "During the time I didn't come, you followed that treacherous person, have you suffered any grievances?"
"Nope. ”
Qu Luoshang chuckled and shook his head.
"Don't you know about me? Who can let me be wronged?"
"Hehe, too. ”
Holding Qu Luoshang's hand like this, Ling Youli slowly closed his eyes.
"Luoshang, during this time, I always feel as if something has something in my head, but when I think about it carefully, I can't think of anything, when I saw the person named Nangong just now, when he said, 'It turned out to be you', I thought he would be my old man, but I didn't expect him to say that he recognized the wrong person. ”
"Your Excellency. ”
Sitting down on the edge of the couch, Qu Luosheng's fingers moved slightly, and a purple light flashed between her fingers.
"My lord, don't think about it if you can't think about it, just get a good night's sleep. ”
"Good. ”
A strong sleepiness suddenly hit, Ling Youli sniffed the fragrance of the wisps of lotus flowers coming from the people around him, and slowly fell asleep.
