Chapter 142: Torture

It should be because in their possible future, Gong Zhijin had to give up their future because of other things, right?

Gongzhijin stretched out his hand with great effort and helped her wipe away the tears on her face, "Don't cry, Yueru, I know your thoughts, but now that there is no way back, I have to leave here." ”

"What about me? What should I do? Will we never see each other at the ends of the earth? Qiao Yueru bit her lip and looked at him with some despair.

If they were destined to end up like this, then she would be unhappy for the rest of her life.

Before Gongzhijin could take back the hand that wiped her tears, she froze in mid-air, "I can't give you a future, let alone happiness, Yueru, with such an identity on my back, I am destined to wander the world and remain incognito." ”

Hearing this, Qiao Yueru closed her eyes and was speechless in pain.

Gong Zhijin said again: "You open a medical hall at the foot of the imperial city, you can treat people, and you can make money to support yourself, life can be described as free, you should have a more happy life, I can't destroy your life, understand?" ”

He has to be Qiao Yueru in this life, but he can't give Qiao Yueru the life she wants, all he can do is let go.

Qiao Yueru raised her head and looked into his eyes that were forbearant and sad, and her heart couldn't help but feel even more sad.

Without Gongzhijin by her side, what does she mean here?

There is nothing worthy of her nostalgia in this world, only Gongzhijin, a man she loves to the extreme.

Obviously, if they find out that it is not a brother and sister, they can be together well, but why would God make such a joke again?

The more Qiao Yueru thought about it, the more sad she became.

She wiped away her tears and held Gong Zhijin's hand tightly, "No, I want to...... I think there's another way to save you. ”

"What's the method?" Gong Zhijin looked at her with a faint smile, not expecting anything at all.

Now that there is only such a way out, what else can be done?

Qiao Yueru tried her best not to let herself cry anymore, and explained: "Let's go to the emperor, you haven't done anything to be sorry for the dynasty over the years, as long as he can let you go, even if you don't interfere in the affairs of the court again, we can run a medical clinic here together." ”

"Yueru, I didn't make a big mistake, I didn't have the opportunity to make up for my mistakes and take it lightly, I am the prince of the previous dynasty, and I have the most taboo identity of the emperors of all dynasties, do you understand?" Gong Zhijin looked at her seriously and explained.

Qiao Yueru wiped away her tears and returned to the hospital to help Gong Zhijin boil medicine.

Seeing her coming, Ke'er hurriedly put down the herbs in her hand, walked over and said worriedly, "Miss, how is it?" ”

"Don't worry, just rest for a few days, don't open the clinic these days, you post a notice, just say that there is an accident in the hospital, let them find other doctors." Qiao Yue asked listlessly.

Seeing that she was crying just now, Ke'er was very worried, but she didn't dare to ask anything more, so she just nodded and did what she said.

Kerr came to the door, and was just about to put up the written notice, when he saw a man walking not far away.

She was stunned for surprise before turning around and saying, "Miss, someone is looking for you." ”

"Who?" Qiao Yueru turned her head preoccupiedly, and when she saw someone coming, her eyes widened.

"You...... What are you doing here? ”

She didn't expect that Ling Han would come over at this juncture, now that her state and face were not good, if Ling Han saw any clues......

"I have something to tell you, can I go in alone with you?" Ling Han pointed to the inner hall of the medical hall, his expression was very solemn.

Qiao Yueru saw that he really had something very important, so she had to nod and wave her hand to let Ke'er on the side close the door.

As soon as the two of them came to the inner hall, Ling Han had not yet sat down, so he asked directly, "Where is Gongzhijin?" ”

"I, I don't know, you can have some tea." Qiao Yueru's hand holding the teacup shook and pretended to be calm and poured tea for him.

She knew that since the emperor had sent someone to assassinate her, presumably the entire royal family knew the identity of Gong Zhijin.

And Ling Han works for the imperial court, once he knows the whereabouts of Gongzhijin, he will definitely report it to the emperor.

Ling Han narrowed her sharp eyes and didn't let go of her hand trembling just now, "If you don't know anything, why are you so nervous?" Yueru, you know where Gongzhijin is, right? ”

"I really don't know, the hands are shaking just because the tea is too hot, I haven't seen Gongzhijin for a while, what are you looking for him?" Qiao Yueru was flustered in her heart, but she still chose to pretend to be stupid.

Regardless of whether Ling Han saw that she was hiding it or not, she had to do her best to hide Gong Zhijin's whereabouts.

Ling Han chuckled lightly and looked her up and down with a look on her face, "Perhaps...... Gongzhijin is here? ”

"How is that possible? I've been unhappy for the past two days, and I haven't run a good medical center, and naturally no one has been here these days, let alone Gongzhijin. Qiao Yueru immediately explained, but as soon as she said it, she regretted it.

After hearing such a quick answer, his tone was still so eager, thinking that Ling Han had already sensed that something was wrong.

Qiao Yueru closed her eyes and prayed in her heart that Ling Han would never notice anything wrong.

Now that Gong Zhijin's injuries are serious, he can't stay and move, and if he is found by Ling Han, I'm afraid he won't even have a chance to escape.

Even if Ling Han didn't plan to hurt Gong Zhijin now, when he told the people in the imperial court, the situation would only become more severe.

The more Qiao Yueru thought about it, the more scared she felt, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.

After a long silence, Ling Han sighed, "I have been working for the imperial court for so long, and I have seen a lot of all kinds of people, whether you are deliberately concealing it, I will know at a glance." ”

"I don't understand what you're saying." Qiao Yueru lowered her head and muttered, the hand hidden in her sleeve was already tightly clenched.

She had already expected Ling Han to detect something, but at this moment, she panicked again, not knowing how to protect the safety of the person he wanted to protect.

Ling Han paused and came to her, "Yueru, I know what you're hiding, you tell me the truth, is Gongzhijin here with you?" How is he doing now? ”

"He's really not with me, you believe me, I haven't seen him, if you want to find him, look elsewhere." Qiao Yueru avoided his gaze and turned around and walked to the window.

She didn't dare to look at Ling Han's sharp eagle eyes, otherwise she would definitely show clues.

Ling Han showed a bitter smile in a place she couldn't see, "I'm not here to kill him. ”

Qiao Yueru was stunned, turned around and wondered, "What did you say?" You...... Haven't you ever thought about hurting Gongzhijin? ”

"He's with you, isn't he?" Ling Han looked at her fixedly.

Qiao Yueru knew that she had been exposed just now, so she simply nodded no longer concealing it, "Yes, Gongzhijin is here with me, but you also said it just now, you won't kill him." ”

"The people in the palace want me to take the secret guards to search the whole city, the city gate has been closed, you must send Gong Zhijin away within two days, otherwise he will be found by the secret guards, and I can only take him to the palace for execution." Ling Han lowered his voice to remind.

Qiao Yueru's eyes widened, she took a step back unacceptably, and muttered, "You mean...... In order to hunt down Gongzhijin, the entire capital will no longer open the city gates? ”

If this is really the case, then once Gongzhijin wants to get out of the city, he will definitely be discovered.

Now that Gong Zhijin is injured, he can't take the opportunity to leave, but if he leaves in a few days, the capital will be more strictly guarded, and it will be even more difficult to escape.

"I will tell the people in the palace that I have found the traces of Gongzhijin in the south of the city, and then take someone to squat for two days, and in these two days, the guards at the city gate are loose, you can help him find a way to leave." Ling Han's expression was serious, and his eyes were even more resolute.

Qiao Yueru was stunned, and couldn't help but grasp the edge of the table, "Why?" Why are you helping us? Haven't you always obeyed only the people of the palace? The city gates have been sealed and your assassination mission has begun. ”

She didn't understand why Ling Han suddenly ran to say this, obviously with Ling Han's ability and Gong Zhijin's injuries, he was enough to quickly complete the assassination mission.

Ling Han glanced at her deeply, there was only deep love in his eyes, "I have done a lot of things for the palace, whether it is voluntary or forced, I have not disobeyed their orders once, only this time, I must do what I want to do, and that is to help you." ”

"So...... Why do you do this? Qiao Yueru looked directly into his eyes, but felt that there was something in them that made her breathless.

Ling Han smiled softly and took a step forward to approach her, "I know that your happiness is the most important thing than killing Gongzhijin, if Gongzhijin is really dead, you will never live happily, even if I want him to disappear from this world, I can't do it." ”

"Ling Han, ...... you" Qiao Yue looked at him with mixed tastes, stunned and unable to say anything.

She didn't expect that the reason why Ling Han did this was actually for her, could it be that for Ling Han, was it so important to make her happy?

Qiao Yueru lowered her head and looked at her pink skirt, and she was moved for a moment and didn't know what to say.

Ling Han waited for a while, then suddenly smiled, "What's wrong?" Why don't you talk all the time? ”

"Ling Han, I don't know what to say, thank you for being so kind to me, if I can help Gongzhijin leave this time, I will be grateful to you for the rest of my life, it's just ...... I don't know how to repay you. Qiao Yueru bit her lip and looked at him sincerely.

She wanted to leave with Gong Zhijin, if they were able to leave smoothly because of Ling Han's help, then she would be forever grateful to Ling Han, but she couldn't find any way to repay her.

Ling Han shook his head, and said lightly: "I don't need you to be grateful to me, as long as you can be happy, I will be content." ”

"Ling Han......" The more Qiao Yueru heard him say this, the more uneasy she felt.

She could never meet someone as good as Ling Han again, but Ling Han was so good to her, but she couldn't repay anything.

Ling Han waved his hand and clenched the sword at his waist, "Send him away in two days, if he still stays in the city, I will kill him at that time, and I will never show mercy again, I will leave." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't give Qiao Yueru a chance to say anything, so he turned around and left.

Ling Han walked to the door, and before he could step out with one foot, he took it back again.

"Yueru, if Gongzhijin really leaves like this, how will you live in the future?" He came to Qiao Yueru again and asked seriously.

How could Qiao Yue not know that his voice outside his words was that he wanted to give him a chance?

Qiao Yueru knew that she couldn't tell her true intentions now, Gong Zhijin hadn't really agreed to take her away, and the current situation had to be discussed with Gong Zhijin.

In any case, she could not tell the truth.

Qiao Yueru suppressed the thoughts in her heart, pursed her lips and said with a wry smile: "I don't know, the most important thing at the moment is to send Gongzhijin away." ”

"Okay, you can discuss the method, I'll go." Ling Han could only nod and left the place instead.

Seeing him walk out of the medical hall, Qiao Yueru followed him to the lobby and poured the boiled medicine into the porcelain bowl.

"Miss, did Ling Gongzi say anything just now?" Kerr curiously leaned over and asked.

Qiao Yueru shook her head with a heavy heart, picked up the bowl and returned to the side room.

When she returned to the wing, Gongzhijin had already fallen asleep tired, and her face was pale and lifeless.
