Qing Ling looked at Chun Yuyan and said with a wry smile: "I was really blind just now, obviously this should be your normal reaction......

Chun Yuyan was puzzled, "Huh? ”

Qing Ling put down his glass, "It's nothing. I just think your heart is cold enough. I exchanged my lifelong happiness for a money-paying errand with my father, and in the end, I didn't even want to get my own next generation into it, but you seemed to think I had taken advantage of it. ”

Chun Yuyan hooked the corners of his mouth, "You won't quarrel with me again for this kind of thing, right?" I have long said that people born like you and me are completely in accordance with the destiny of heaven and understandable to consolidate their power by marriage. At least you are better than me, and the benefits you can seek cannot be underestimated! I'm envious of you, right? ”

Qing Ling sneered: "If you really want to marry the Baili clan, it is not without a chance. With your ability, it is not easy to kidnap Miss Baili. ”

Chun Yuyan reached out and poured himself a glass of wine and drank it, hehe laughed, "You also said, I can only rely on 'crutches'." After abducting, he had to wander all over the world to avoid the pursuit of the royal marquis. Why should I do such a thankless task? ”

Qing Ling moved her lips, wanting to say something, but finally endured it.

She thought of Mu Chen, and was about to repeat the question she had just asked Chun Yuyan, when there were a few soft knocks outside the door, and then the door was pushed open, and Min Niang walked in.

Min Niang said to Qingling: "I have found out, it is indeed the person who invited the Baili clan, and it is also the prince of Daze himself." I asked the guy in the front yard, and he arrived at the Red Moon Square around the same time as you. ”

Qing Ling's eyes were gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Sure enough, it's him!" ”

In Lingxiao City, who else can know about Emperor Hao's marriage and cast almost flawless demon illusions, who else can he be!

Chun Yuyan looked at Qing Ling's expression, "What did he say to you?" Makes you angry like this. ”

Qing Ling pursed her lips, remembering the conversation with the phantom before, she was filled with shame, and the trace of guilt that still existed for Luo Yao in her heart disappeared in an instant.

"Nothing! He just wanted to inquire about his father's true intentions. I didn't say it. ”

Chun Yuyan said: "The two fathers and sons of Daze are better than foxes. His Majesty put forward such a condition, how could they not figure out the intention behind it. Comforting Qingling said: "You don't have to worry too much about him, after all, you are engaged, and there are still many places to cooperate in the future." ”

Qing Ling glared at Chun Yuyan with disdain.

It seems that there is no need to ask him how to explain it to Mu Chen. This guy will definitely say that the plan comes first, everyone needs to be sensible, and there is nothing to hesitate about!

Chun Yuyan raised his eyebrows and looked back at Qing Ling, "What, it's starting to look at me unpleasantly again?" ”

"Alright," he said, holding her shoulders and strolling out, "if we want to fight back, we have to stabilize our power first, right?" In this way, you go to my mansion with me first, and I will give you a treasure of the demon clan, and I am sure that I will not be able to deceive you by any illusion in the future......"

Chun Yuyan half-pushed Qingling, said goodbye to Min Niang, walked out of the courtyard, and walked towards the gate of Hongyuefang.

Chun Yuyan said as he walked: "The old man of my family has begged His Majesty countless times, and wants me to come to Lingxiao City to help deal with some trivial matters in the clan, but Your Majesty has never paid attention to it. Recently, I suddenly got kind enough to let me back, and I was thinking it was strange. After a long time, it turned out that he had asked you, not only to amnesty a group of sinners in Fanye, but also to sell me as a favor by the way......"

Qing Ling sneered: "If you don't accept such a favor, you can't accept it." ”

The two of them talked, and walked all the way to the door of the Red Moon Fang.

At this time, another group of people also came from the opposite direction, and the leaders were richly dressed and had a leisurely gait, chatting softly. The singers beside him wore colorful smoke saro skirts, and their figures were graceful, and they laughed decently.

One of them was handsome, wearing a brocade robe with dark purple and silver patterns, the surface of which reflected a dull and luxurious luster in the moonlight, which made his face more delicate and bewitching.

His gaze quickly swept over Qing Ling and Chun Yuyan, and finally stopped at Chun Yuyan's hand on Qing Ling's shoulder.

Several people from the Shixiang clan knew Yan, whispered something to Luo Yao, and then stepped forward to greet Chun Yuyan with a smile on his face.

Chun Yuyan is also a master of this occasion, and he is able to deal with it with a smile.

Qing Ling, who had changed his appearance, stood aside and looked at Luo Yao coldly.

Luo Yao had a faint smile on his lips, but his eyes were also cold.

He came to the appointment of the patriarch of the Shixiang clan on behalf of the imperial marquis tonight, but he happened to catch a glimpse of Qingling, who entered the door one step later than him, and listened to her ask people about Chun Yuyan's location. So he used magic to set up a fantasy and wanted to inquire about her thoughts again, but unexpectedly led to such a conversation......

Qing Ling had been moved by Mu Chen, and he knew it.

The two of them have always been close allies, supporting each other and relying on each other, and he knows it.

But he didn't know what kind of way those two had gotten along with each other before they came to Lingxiao City, and what kind of mountain alliance and sea oath they had made.

He had heard the unbearable rumors between her and Chun Yuyan, and he had also heard different versions of the rumors between her and the eldest prince of Fang Shan, but he didn't really believe in these.

However, tonight by the spring pool, when she lowered her eyes, she lost her mind for a moment, hesitated and stopped, undoubtedly announcing to him a ridiculous love hidden in the Vermilion Bird Palace.

He once thought that her heart would slowly deteriorate because of blood relationship after all. However, to this day, with such an identity, she and that person still refuse to let go......

Luo Yao stared at Qing Ling steadily, unable to tell whether the emotions surging in his heart at this moment were hatred, pain, or disgust. Just as Qing Ling looked at him, there was a complicated look that he had never seen before, and he couldn't tell whether it was anger, resentment, or contempt.

The gaze of the two crossed the crowd and tightened in the night, and the glitz and bustle around them was suddenly reduced to the background.

Chun Yuyan glanced at Qingling, and then apologized to the Shixiang clan and the others: "There are still some urgent matters that need to be dealt with today. I'll be the east another day, and I'll invite all the good students to get together again! ”

After finishing speaking, he bowed to Luo Yao from afar, and pulled Qing Ling to leave.

The two got into Chunyu's carriage.

Yan leaned against the wall of the carriage, stared at Qing Ling, and said: "I remember that you used to have a good relationship with your junior brother, why are you engaged to meet like an enemy now?" You will inevitably have to rely on him and Baili's in the future, so the relationship on the surface still has to be maintained well, don't have an expression of hatred for others! ”

Qing Ling looked up at the glass lamp hanging on the roof of the carriage, and said slowly: "I have said all the good things I can say, what else?" He hates me for messing up his marriage to Ah Jing, and I can understand that. But as long as he is willing to cooperate well, things will not have no room for turnaround, and in the end, both parties can get their wish, so why not? As long as he still has the slightest intention of taking care of the feelings of his fellow disciples, he should help me deal with Mu Han without hesitation and avenge the fourth senior brother! You dare to trick me with witchcraft! ”

Chun Yuyan said: "Then you should lower your posture first." As long as a woman is gentle, it will be much easier to deal with a man. ”

Qing Ling took a bite out of him, "Why do you want me to please him?" I'm his sister, okay? ”

The carriage pulled the two of them to Chun Yu's mansion in Lingxiao City.

Qingling remembered the purpose of going to Hongyuefang tonight, so he asked Chun Yuyan about the movements of the courtiers he heard from Min Niang, so the two drank some wine and ate some snacks in the flower hall, and chatted for a long time.

When she came out of the Chunyu Clan's mansion, it was already after midnight.

Before leaving, Chun Yuyan took an emerald green and crystal bracelet and gave it to Qing Ling, saying that it was made by the spirit of the nine-tailed fox beast, and he could wear it with him to resist the confusion of any demon illusion.

Qing Ling raised the bracelet in the moonlight and looked at it carefully, and saw that its blue light and strange color were indeed very strange.

Chunyu's mansion is located on the street facing the east of the inner city, surrounded by all the well-known families of the Eastern Continent, and the guards of the capital patrolling this area are also well-guarded.

Qing Ling drank a lot of wine tonight, and he was a little drunk, standing at the gate of the mansion and staring at the patrol soldier with heavy armor and iron helmet at the corner of the street, his heart moved, he reached out and took out the unicorn jade card, summoned his mount, and jumped up.

A glittering unicorn suddenly appeared in the dark alley, and the surrounding soldiers immediately surrounded it vigilantly.

Qing Ling recognized that the leading soldier officer was the one he had seen last time.

She withdrew her illusion, leaned slightly over the unicorn, and asked the officer, "Do you recognize who I am?" ”

The officer looked up, then fell to the ground, "See the Emperor!" ”

Qingling said: "This time, I came to find Chunyu's second son again." If you want to send someone to sue me before Your Majesty or the Queen, you'd better act quickly before I return to the palace. ”

The officer's face suddenly turned red, "The last general doesn't dare!" ”

The last time Qing Ling came to find Chun Yuyan, he did send someone to send a letter to the queen. At that time, although Qing Ling told him not to reveal his whereabouts, at that time she was just a powerless emperor who had just entered the capital, even if her status was noble, she could not be compared with the queen's majesty in any way. Even when he heard that Emperor Ji had been punished with the whip of hatred because of this, he didn't worry too much about her revenge or anything.

But today, this Qingling Emperor Ji, who entered the Yan clan halfway, has become a celebrity in front of His Majesty. gave the mansion, allowed free access to the palace, and even raised a large army to the south because of her assassination......

Cold sweat broke out on the officer's forehead.

If Emperor Ji really had the heart to find fault with him, even the main general of the inner city army who was friendly with the Fang Shan clan would probably not be able to protect him......

Who knew that Qing Ling just chuckled a few times, and then drove the Qilin to step on the wind and go in the direction of the Vermilion Bird Palace.

She condescendedly overlooking the ten thousand lights in the Imperial Palace, and took a deep breath of the cold night breeze.

The taste in the chest is a little difficult to distinguish, like sweet and sour, and like melancholy.

This maybe,

It's the smell of power, right?

It's unstoppable, but I have to secretly swallow the pain that others don't know......

～～～

Back at Yinque Palace, Qing Ling was about to take a bath and sleep well, but was told by the palace maid that Ah Jing had been waiting here since the evening.

Qing Ling's emotions that had finally relaxed were tightened again.

She rubbed the corners of her forehead, hesitated into the inner room, and saw that Ah Jing was slowly standing up from the desk. The soft silver light of the mussel lamp reflected on her face, and she looked very pale.

Qing Ling dismissed the maid, waved her hand to set a prohibition, and looked at Ah Jing as calmly as possible, "What are you looking for me?" ”

Ah Jing bit her lip and stared at Qing Ling, her eyes glistening with water, "I want to apologize to you." What I said...... And a slap in the face......"

Qing Ling smiled reluctantly, "I don't blame you. This is because I'm sorry for you. ”

A Jing's expression suddenly added a hint of expectation, and she took a few steps forward, "Then can you ...... Don't agree to marry Daze? ”

She held Qing Ling's hand, "I know that my mother and Mu Han have done something to hurt you. You have hatred for them, you can beat me and scold me to get angry! But can you not promise your father? As he spoke, he pulled Qing Ling's hand to his cheek, "I hit you, you can call back!" I can also pay back those who beat you before! ”

Qing Ling broke free, "Ah Jing! ”

Two lines of crystal tears overflowed from Ajing's peach blossom eyes, "Since I was a child, I really liked someone for the first time, and I really wanted to be with him for the rest of my life...... I can give you anything else, my father's reward, anything in my palace, as long as you like, you can take it! Only Fuyao ...... Please don't take it away! ”
