Chapter 138: Wolf Ambition
Temple.
The poor quality of the single product incense curled and burned, and the smoke in the cramped and cramped nunnery was filled in the cramped and cramped nunnery, and even the Buddha statues enshrined on the yellow cloth shore had faded from compassion.
The sound of the wooden fish sounded one by one, and the nun in gray cloth turned her back to the narrow door, reciting Buddhist verses one after another, her voice was calm, accompanied by the rising smoke, as if she had transcended the world and washed away the mortal heart.
When a guest visited, a teacher in the nunnery immediately came to call the nun.
The nun stopped moving, as if she was thinking about refusal.
Shi Tai was afraid of delaying the distinguished guest, and wanted to pinch her, but he was afraid of her identity, so he persuaded with good words: "Lichen, you go and meet, in the end it is your relatives." ”
The nun who had been replaced with dust finally stopped the wooden fish, folded her hands, and got up and walked out of this gloomy place.
She saw the tall figure standing next to the maple tree that had begun to dye red, and her eyes were touched: "Liangye." ”
"Eldest sister."
Qin Liangye turned around and looked at the former eldest princess who was very thin, I don't know if it was because she had lost the decoration of the fancy clothes and fat powder, or if the favor of the years had all faded away, the current eldest princess looked ten years older than her actual age, and the corners of her eyes and lips were all fine lines that could not be covered.
But at the moment, her eyes were the calmest. It's not the pretended calm that it used to be, it's really the heart that's dead.
"You came here, have all the arrangements made in the capital?" The eldest princess asked him.
Qin Liangye didn't answer her question, just quietly looked at this person who was nominally the eldest sister, but took on the responsibility of a mother to raise him. smiled gently: "Eldest sister, don't be sad, brother-in-law will still come back to you." ”
The eldest princess's eyes moved, just like her gray robe blown by the wind, but the corners of her clothes that flew quickly returned to tranquility.
"Don't bother anymore." The eldest princess's gaze crossed Qin Liangye and looked at the maple leaf behind him, the red color was very similar to the blood from Rong Hai when he was pierced in the abdomen that day.
But Rong Hai's calm eyes that day made her heart die with her.
Where the eldest princess couldn't notice it, Qin Liangye's hand loosened. He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"This time I came to look for my eldest sister, in addition to visiting, there is another thing." Qin Liangye smiled.
"What?"
Qin Liangye's generals Rong Hai and the two Chen soldiers were thirty miles away from the capital, but they did not send troops for a long time, and Helian Zifeng also seemed to have a stalemate on his intentions, but he did not mention his cooperation with Helian Zifeng.
The eldest princess is blind in emotional matters, but she is not an ignorant woman, on the contrary, she grew up in a harem of intrigue, and although she can't turn the tide of these power disputes, she can understand them.
Her good brother is jealous of the brother-in-law who used to be the best to him.
He couldn't tolerate Rong Hai, who was no longer a husband and wife with him, and he couldn't tolerate Rong Che, who had held the new emperor hostage and intended to leave the capital and retreat.
He needed an excuse to get rid of them after he had used all the people of the Mansion.
Very good, the Emperor's Mind Technique, before he sat in that position, he already had it.
"I see."
After the eldest princess guessed what Qin Liangye wanted to do for herself, there was a moment of sadness in her heart. But she felt that she might pity Qin Liangye even more, her younger brother who had never been cared for by relatives, had never tasted the love between men and women, and was cold-hearted.
After the eldest princess finished speaking, she turned around and went back to the nunnery.
The nunnery is not big, Qin Liangye can hear the sisters-in-law in the nunnery keep asking the eldest princess about her identity, the eldest princess didn't answer, and not long after, she heard a few screams coming from inside, and people turned on their backs.
Qin Liangye's eyes had tears, but they were dried in an instant by the refreshing wind of this autumn.
Not long after, Rong Che received Wei Qingqing's news and smiled slightly.
Another day, the news of Dongzhou came quickly and presented to Helian Zifeng's desk.
That night, a group of men and horses left the capital, and a large number of soldiers and horses were dispatched and began to attack the garrison outside the city.
Dongzhou Mansion House.
Wei Qingqing took every precaution, but he didn't expect that A Cicada would still lose it.
In the flower hall, the two nurses who were in charge of taking care of the cicada knelt on the ground, not shaking like sifting chaff as usual, but looked at Wei Qingqing calmly and guiltily: "I have the entrustment of the second master, please give the young lady death!" ”
They were found by Rong Che to take care of A Cicada, they seem to be ordinary and ordinary, but they are first-class good hands, but no one thought that under a master like them, they would let people take A Cicada away.
Because no one thought that the person who took away the cicada was none other than Tang'er.
The Duchess of Guo had already turned pale, and the people who could be sent out in the house were all sent out, and at this moment, looking at these two nurses, her fingers trembled with anger: "If I kill you in exchange for my Chan'er, it is not a pity to kill you a hundred times!" ”
Lan Sheng looked at Wei Qingqing, who was sitting on the side, seemingly calm but was forcibly supported by a gossamer, and said, "Miss, otherwise the slave and maid will also go out to find it." Tang'er is a child, and he will definitely not be able to run far. ”
"The people in the music and dance courtyard are all under control?" Wei Qingqing asked.
Lan Sheng nodded.
Wei Qingqing took a deep breath, she knew that she couldn't show her cowardice now, the purpose of the people behind the music and dance was herself, but whether those people would treat the cicada well, she was not sure, for the sake of today, the only way to find the mother and son of the music and dance was to find the music and dance mother and son first.
Wei Qingqing glanced at the mother-in-law on the ground: "Keep your lives first, and each of you will bring a team of men and horses to secretly watch the movements in the city." Now that the war ahead is tight, there must be no chaos in the city, so we must not disturb the people. ”
The mother-in-law immediately responded.
When Wei Qingshan came from outside, he was so anxious that he could afford two big bubbles, as soon as he entered the house, he saw Wei Qingqing first, and he was distressed, his delicate little daughter suffered so much that she lost her child before becoming a mother, how could she stand it?
"Qingqing, don't worry, your eldest brother has already taken someone out to look for it. No matter what the price is, it will never let the cicada have anything to do! Wei Qingshan spoke.
It was the first time for Wei Qingqing to see such a strong Wei Qingshan, and the panic in her heart gradually dissipated in the process of slowly combing.
She nodded and said to the Duchess of Guo, "Mother, I want to ask you to do me a favor." ”
The Duchess looked at her serious appearance and knew that it must not be a good thing, but she could not refuse.
A child is a life for a mother!
In a small alley somewhere in Dongzhou, a small figure curled up in the abandoned pile of baskets, staring out with dark eyes, not making a sound, and even breathing became cautious.
An inn private room not far from here.
The woman wrapped in a black robe swept into the private room like the wind, looking at the people waiting in the private room, before she could speak, she was smashed in the face by the thrown teacup.
The tea flowed down the tea stains and landed on her dignified and beautiful face, so she was not embarrassed.
"That's what you planned? What about children? Ling Jiang looked at the music and dance deeply.
"The child is gone, but Wei Qingqing is also in chaos, and our plan is not all a failure." Le Wu wiped the tea from his face, walked up to him quietly, picked up a cup of tea and planned to splash it back in the same way, but Ling Jiang grabbed his wrist.
Ling Jiang looked at her still beautiful face, full of disgust: "Wen Ji is really a stupid person, he actually lost his life for you, but he didn't know that you were water-based Yang Hua, and he was still thinking about other men." ”
"You want to avenge him?"
There was no embarrassment on Le Wu's face, and she asked him with a sneer.
She knew Ling Jiang wouldn't. Ling Jiang was just a traitor among the emperor's secret guards, and he defected to Qin Liangye.
"When it's done, I can take pity on you." Ling Jiang's attitude became ambiguous, and his hand went from clutching Le Wu to slowly reaching into her sleeve, feeling her slippery skin, making Jiang smile: "You are no longer a virgin anyway, it is better to accompany Ye today, maybe Ye can help you ...... when he looks at this dew."
"You deserve it too!"
Le Wu sneered, and splashed Fang Cai's tea on Ling Jiang's face with his backhand, and instantly ushered in a cold slap from Ling Jiang.
Le Wu doesn't know kung fu, this slap directly slapped her to the ground, and then scolded: "Don't think I don't know that your evil seed has ruined my good deeds, pigs and dogs are not as good as the mother gave birth to a little beast, if this matter can't be done, I will kill you first, and then send the little beast directly to the old eunuchs in the palace." ”
Ling Jiang stepped on Le Wu's face, and sneered: "Those who are incomplete like to torture people to satisfy themselves the most, how dirty those methods are, I don't need to say it, you should have heard of it or two." Although you don't care about your little brute, but it's always crawling out of your belly, and you don't feel distressed at all? ”
"Jiang Ye is right."
Le Wu was stunned, his eyes instantly became clear, and then he changed to a seductive smile: "It's me who is obsessed, now that the child is in Tang'er's hands, we will definitely be able to find someone before Wei Qingqing." I'll serve Jiang Ye. "China
Le Wu said, his hand jerkily grabbed Ling Jiang's ankle, soft as water, and slowly climbed up.
Jiang Ben rested his thoughts, he just wanted to use music and dance to vent his anger first, and then forced her to go with him to find Tang'er, who knew that this beauty would be interesting at this time.
"Good lady, you have been like this for a long time, and you don't have to suffer such a sin."
Ling Jiang pulled her into his arms, but he didn't forget his business, and ordered in the dark: "That little cub has a strange fragrance on his body, take the dog out, and find him before the people in the Guogong Mansion." ”
Le Wu's body stiffened, Ling Jiang laughed when she saw this, and looked at her even more cruelly: "Don't think that I don't know that you are moved by compassion, don't worry, the little girl doll of two months is still useful for our master, and she won't kill her!" As for your brat, I'll tell him personally. You changed your mind and wanted to kill him and the little girl! ”
Le Wu wanted to say it again, but people have been dragged directly into hell.
Le Wu looked at the dark beams in the room in a daze, remembering that she quietly stared at Tang'er this morning and secretly took away A Cicada behind her back, she was indeed moved by compassion, because that child was not only Wei Qingqing's, but also Rong Che's.
She didn't want Rong Che to suffer the pain of losing her son, she just wanted Wei Qingqing to make room, and she didn't want to harm Rong Che, so she let Tang'er slip away quietly, and covered his whereabouts for him, but she didn't expect that everything was calculated.
'Poof-'
"You ——!"
The man was sweating profusely, and suddenly was pierced through the throat by a hairpin, and instantly widened his eyes and looked at Lewu who was fierce and couldn't stop trembling with fear, and used his last strength to slash at Lewu's chest with one palm, watching her fly out like broken paper, before falling to the ground and dying.
Le Wu spit out a mouthful of blood, her heart hurt like a thousand arrows piercing her heart, and she was in a trance when she looked at the blood.
What's wrong with her, isn't she just Rong Che?
Didn't she hate Tang'er, the son of Wenji?
How could he do such a stupid thing to save him.
Le Wu chewed tears in her eyes, cleaned up her messy clothes, and stumbled out the door.
In the alley.
Tang'er listened to the barking of the dog outside and panicked, but when he looked at the big round eyes in his arms that were sucking his fingers and smiling at him, Tang'er suddenly understood what his father, who had been with him for less than half a year, told him. What is 'responsibility'.
Tang'er stared at the fierce dog outside, trembling and taking out the dagger in his sleeve, which was a black iron knife with iron as clay, and the word 'smell' was engraved on it.
"Come out."
The person outside spoke, and he already showed the cold blade that was the length of the man's arm.
The people on the street are gone, but the wind at the mouth of the alley is still so gentle, and it also exudes a faintly flowing murderous aura.
Maybe these people haven't taken Tang'er, a child, in their eyes, so they let him come out slowly.
The grinning black dog couldn't stop panting, as if coveting the impending fight.
No one on the streets knew about this one-sided massacre. How did it turn into a fight?
Because no one can believe that a seven-year-old child is so agile and can be so ruthless.
When Wei Xun took the yellow dog Ah Xing all the way to follow the scent, he only saw a pool of blood, and the small figure covered in blood was blocking in front of the sword that was about to pierce him.
Rao is Wei Xun was frightened.
Guo Qing, who was still following him, turned over with a harrier, and the two secret guards from the big interior refused to give up the opportunity to kill Tang'er, but they didn't expect this negligence. was taken by Guo Qing with a sword.
The man's head rolled and fell on Tang'er's face.
Wei Xun was startled, and hurriedly wanted to kick the head away, but found that Tang'er's dark eyes actually flashed a trace of happiness.
Wei Xun's body stiffened, and when he looked at it again, Tang'er had already fainted with his eyes closed.
He thought he must have seen it wrong, how could such an immature child have such a perverted pleasure in killing?
"Huh......"
Guo Qing's voice brought Wei Xun back to his senses, Wei Xun looked over, and saw that in the basket tightly guarded behind Tang'er, a pink and tender female doll had her back to the blood, sleeping sweetly, and she didn't know what was going on.
"I see, the roots and bones are so outstanding, and they are natural killer seedlings."
Guo Qing hugged Tang'er, who was covered in blood, at a young age, the bones of his limbs were almost all broken, and a piece of flesh and blood was torn off his arm by a dog, but the dog was even more miserable, and a dark iron dagger pierced its eyes directly.
Shortly after finding Cicada, the Guogong Mansion held a funeral.
In the capital, Helian Zifeng pinched the news in his hand and his eyes were about to split: "Dead? ”
"Yes, Miss Wei has not recovered well since giving birth, and then the child disappeared and the news of his death came out, Miss Wei couldn't stand it for a while, so when no one was watching, she ...... directly with a white silk."
"Impossible, Qingqing is not such a fragile person!" Helian Zifengjun's face was as dark as ice, and his eyes looked at the person like a knife: "Who did it to her child!" ”
The person who came was already frightened by his glance: "Yes...... It's ......"
"Qin Liangye."
Helian Zifeng already had the answer: "This is his deal with this king, and this is how he sent Qingqing to this king." ”
"Lord Wang, maybe the news is wrong......" The man still wanted to explain a thing or two, and the person who came back from investigating the news only frowned: "According to the report of the spies, they watched Miss Wei's body converge and bury it with their own eyes, and I heard that Wei Qingshan was white-headed overnight, and the old illness of the Duchess of Guo recurred, and she was sick in bed, but I am afraid that the time will not be long." ”
The man had to grit his teeth secretly. After thinking about it, he said again: "Lord Wang, such a good opportunity, Rong Che's side will definitely be in chaos, why don't we send troops immediately, we will definitely be able to defeat them with one blow!" ”
"Where is Qin Liangye?"
Helian Zifeng's tone calmed down, but those who were familiar with him knew that the calmer he behaved, the more angry he became, and the people who offended him would pay a greater price.
And Qin Liangye also knew the news.
As soon as he knew the news, he went from 'lying ill' to directly recovering his health, appearing in the imperial city, and then quickly appeared in Rong Che's military camp.
Rong Che didn't seem to know the news yet, because all the people along the way were intercepted by Qin Liangye, and he knew that within a day, Rong Che would be suspicious if he didn't receive the news from the spies, but one day was enough.
"Rong Che. I just got the news, Helian Zifeng can't wait, he will send troops tonight, we must be one step ahead of him to kill him by surprise. ”
After Qin Liangye finished speaking, he looked at Rong Hai again: "Brother-in-law, my sister went to Dongzhou to find you before, is it okay?" ”
Rong Hai looked at Qin Liangye, who looked sincere, and told the truth what happened that day.
Qin Liangye lowered his eyebrows: "It's my sister who is sorry for you." ”
"It's all gone." Rong Hai looked at him with a smile, just like when he was in Saibei, he regarded him as his own child, and his eyes were gentle.
"Then can I still call you brother-in-law in the future?" Qin Liangye asked him, like a lonely little beast, even though it had sharp claws, it was timid.
Rong Hai patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: "Your Highness is the king, I am the minister, if Your Highness does not dislike it in private, the minister is His Highness's eternal relative." ”
Qin Liangye was relieved, he knew that Rong Hai was soft-hearted, especially for himself who was almost equal to being raised with the same hand, otherwise he would not have chosen to forgive after the eldest princess had made so many mistakes.
"Then I'll go and order troops first."
"Okay."
Rong Hai nodded.
Qin Liangye went out with peace of mind, and didn't see the disappointment in Rong Hai's eyes.
As soon as Qin Liangye left, the bead curtain between the sides moved, and a begonia red skirt appeared.
Rong Hai solemnly bowed to her, full of guilt: "After all, this child was also raised by me, and now he has become so ambitious, and he almost hurt Ah Cicada and his younger siblings, it's my fault." ”
At this time, Wei Qingqing, who should have been buried in Dongzhou, opened the bead curtain and came out and helped Rong Hai: "This is not to blame Big Brother. "It's just that people are uncertain and can't stop this supreme power.
But then, no matter how reluctant you are, you have to give up.
Helian Zifeng can't stay, and Qin Liangye, who has the ambition of the wolf, can't stay.
