Chapter 176: Sorrow (2)

Fang Shanlei saw that his younger brother was not kind to Qing Ling, so he turned his head sideways and reprimanded: "Yuan! ”

The current rumors inside and outside gradually pointed to the mastermind behind the killings to the West Continent or Lieyang. After all, the people of the country originated from the Western Continent, and Lieyang has always been Chaoyan's long-cherished enemy. As a corollary, it is not surprising.

But Fang Shanlei understood that this was just a rumor spread by someone with a heart with the help of public opinion. Confusing the public, reversing black and white, and diverting the world's attention from the real culprit were originally tricks to gain power and make good use of the camp.

What's more, after his father saw Mu Han, he frowned and instructed him: "Now let the Chunyu clan fight with the Baili clan!" It's best to be able to suppress Daze Baili. With the help of the threads and accumulated contacts of the Chun Yu family's forces, the southern border can take it for its own use, and if it can't, it will be cut off as soon as possible. ”

Fang Shanlei has been appreciated by Emperor Hao in the past two years, and his official rank and power are close to his father Fang Shanxiu, and he has become more and more calm and capable, and he soon read the hidden intention from his father's words.

For the death of his sister, he was extremely sad in his heart. But as the eldest son who is responsible for the rise and fall of the family, at this time, he can't allow himself to be emotional.

Fang Shanyuan was scolded by his brother, he was unwilling, he turned his head and muttered: "It's all other people's daughters-in-law, what are you doing to protect ......it?"

His voice was very low, but Qing Ling's hearing had always been too good, so he was inadvertently forced to listen, and then thought of the entanglements with Fang Shanlei in the past, his face was slightly hot, and he quickly changed the topic.

"That's right...... I haven't had time to congratulate you on your happy event with Miss Xijia. She cleared her throat, pulled out a smile, and said to Fang Shanlei: "I will definitely find some congratulatory gifts when I go back and send them to General Xi's mansion." Speaking of which, Xi Ying is the smartest and open-minded girl among my friends, she is beautiful and beautiful, and Fang Shan Gongzi is really a blessing! ”

Fang Shanlei heard her sincere and earnest, and smiled generously, and couldn't help but feel a touch of loss in his heart.

He looked at her bright face, only to feel that the look revealed by the corners of her eyebrows and eyes vaguely had a little bit of her innocence and coquettishness when she first entered Lingxiao City.

Unexpectedly, marrying the prince of Osawa made her have such a change......

Qing Ling saw that Fang Shan Lei's face was unpleasant and his expression was gloomy, thinking of his newly lost sister, how could he worry about anything else, he couldn't help but secretly laugh at himself in his heart, after so many years, he still couldn't learn to comfort people!

At this time, there was the sound of footsteps at the door of the upper hall.

Everyone followed the reputation, and saw Luo Yao slowly stepping out of the dormitory, followed by Ah Jing with a sickly face.

The people on both sides were stunned for a moment because of each other.

Luo Yao turned around and saluted Ah Jing to say goodbye, and quickly walked down the stairs to Qing Ling's side.

As soon as Fang Shanyuan saw Luo Yao, his suppressed emotions suddenly burst out again, and he stepped forward and wanted to speak.

Unexpectedly, Luo Yao took Qing Ling's hand and asked with concern, "Are you telling Fang Shan Gongzi what Sister Xia said before she died?" Don't make yourself sad again......"

Fang Shanyuan's evil words, which had originally rushed to his lips, suddenly froze, and then stammered, "What...... What words? What did Sister Xia say before leaving? ”

Fang Shanlei and Fang Shanji also cast their gaze at the same time, looking at Luo Yao.

Luo Yao pondered for a moment, as if he had an understanding, and then slowly told the story of Chun Yujue dissipating all his divine power to protect Fang Shanxia with his body as an enchantment, and Fang Shanxia also chose to commit suicide and martyrdom.

His expression was solemn, his voice was clear, and his tone was very decently controlled, neither overly sentimental, nor indifferent to himself, and between the words, it seemed that the couple between the other party and the couple were very admiring.

At the end, he said abruptly: "Chun Yu has a deep love for his son, and he desperately protects his wife, Yao is also a man, and I don't know if he can have this courage." Even Qingling said that among the couples married by the family, the love between the two of them was the most enviable. ”

The voice fell, and there was silence all around. Even Fang Shanyuan fell silent, and everyone sighed in their hearts.

However, Qing Ling didn't listen very much because he had another thought, and now he saw that everyone was disturbed by Luo Yao's words, and he couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly.

Xiao Qi, this guy, is really a demon!

A few words not only pushed away Fang Shanyuan's fierce spearhead, but now that he said this, if Fang Shan's clan wants to abandon Chun Yu's clan in the future, I'm afraid that Fang Shanyuan and Fang Shanji in front of him will definitely jump out and oppose it vigorously because of Chun Yujue's affection, right?

She remembered that the participation and admonitions of the ministers under Fang Shan Xiu's sect had suddenly decreased sharply recently, and she had the intention of staying out of the matter and letting the Chunyu clan and the Baili clan fight, and she couldn't guess the plan and calculation behind this for a while......

Qing Ling turned his mind, his gaze wandered, and he touched the gaze cast by Ah Jing on the top of the stairs.

It was almost winter, and the wind was unexpectedly cold. Ah Jing wore a thin gauze skirt and stood in front of the temple gate by default, looking more and more sick and haggard.

When she saw Qing Ling looking at her, she involuntarily raised her chin, took out a gesture of extreme contempt and pride, and looked at her condescendingly.

However, the gloom between the eyebrows has always been difficult to hide......

Luo Yao pulled Qingling, quickly said goodbye to everyone, and walked out of the garden of Ajing's bedroom.

Qing Ling came back to his senses and said, "You make the atmosphere so sad, what if the people of the Fang Shan family are even more annoyed after hearing it, and come up with tears to fight with you?" ”

Luo Yao smiled indifferently, "Aren't I in a hurry to escape?" Besides, I didn't do it, so why should I be weak-minded? ”

When Qing Ling heard his last words, he didn't feel a pang in his heart, and then became silent.

Luo Yao also realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, but when he saw Qing Ling's reaction, he felt that the taste in his chest was a little complicated and difficult to distinguish, and he didn't regret saying that he didn't settle the score.

Both fell silent.

After a long time, Qing Ling opened his mouth in a low voice: "You met with Ajing just now, but ...... OK? ”

Luo Yao let out a faint "um".

Qing Ling was not satisfied with this answer, but he couldn't pull his face to ask, and after thinking about it for a long time, he said: "You are a person, anyway, you are quite amorous...... "Anyway, you are also quite amorous "Anyway, if you want to see her in the future, you will talk to me." It's inconvenient for you to enter the palace alone, I can take you there. ”

Luo Yao's footsteps slowed slightly, "Amorous? Where did Senior Sister see that I was amorous? ”

Qing Ling lowered her eyes and counted with her fingers in her heart, first of all, there is the Terran girl who doesn't like you, and then you fall in love with Ah Jing when she rejects it. Also, looking at you and Xian Xian seem to be too close, and my maid Xiwu, don't you still praise people for being very good?

Count them down......

Count them down......

Qing Ling sighed, and then said as if self-persuasive: "Actually, there is nothing wrong with being amorous! Everything is changing, feelings are no exception, people's hearts are greedy, and it is natural to like different people at the same time. ”

Luo Yao was silent for a moment, and pulled the corners of his lips, "Senior sister is such a person, right?" ”

"Huh?"

"I like different people at the same time."

Qing Ling was stunned in place, then his cheeks turned red, and he slammed his fist over, "You are looking for death!" ”

~~

The two returned to the Emperor's Mansion in the city.

The housekeeper waited at the door with a bitter face early in the morning, and when he saw Qing Ling getting off the car, he hurriedly rushed forward, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, go to the inner garden and have a look!" ”

He quickly explained the reason for the incident, and followed Qing Ling to her residence in a hurry.

The ground outside the courtyard was a mess, and it was clear that someone had found something from the room and thrown it outside.

Xu Di, the female official who served Qingling, was tied with a rope and gagged, knelt in the courtyard, looked up and saw Qingling appearing, and hurriedly babbling and screaming for help.

The two little palace maids who came out of the Vermilion Bird Palace and had been following Xu Di next to them each held an object in their hands, and they were anxious to come forward to save the female official, but they were stopped by Qingling's maid Qiu Zhi.

Qiu Zhi turned her head to see Qing Ling, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Emperor Ji." ”

Qing Ling glanced at the people in the courtyard, and saw that in addition to Qiu Zhi and Xu Di and others, Xiwu and Xun, as well as several subordinates under Xun, were also standing aside. Obviously, in order to subdue Xu Di, Qiu Zhi used all the people around her who could be used.

"What the hell is going on?"

The person in charge only said that Qiu Zhi and Xu Di fought, Qiu Zhi used a spell to tie up Xu Di, and the little palace maid next to Xu Di was in a hurry to release the fire lotus signal and ask the forbidden army for help.

Qiu Zhi looked up at Luo Yao, who had followed Qing Ling in, with a hesitant face, and stopped talking.

Qing Ling saw the clue and said, "You come into the house with me." ”

Entering the house, Qiu Zhi knelt on the ground and said, "Today, the slave maid and the evening fog cleaned the emperor's inner bed, and found that the incense burner had been replaced with some new incense. The incense used by the emperor has always been arranged by the eldest prince to be purchased and sent, and today it was suddenly changed to something else, and the slave maid felt strange, so she took it out with the evening fog and took a closer look. ”

Qiu Zhi is Xun's sister, outstanding in martial arts, and her temperament is also very calm and calm, and when she doesn't speak, she occasionally makes people feel a little indifferent.

However, at this time, her face was slightly red, and her expression was quite unnaturally silent for a moment before she continued: "Xiwu said...... What is that incense...... It's something that Fengyue uses to seduce his benefactor. After the slave and maid heard this, they called Xu Di to confront her. She refused to admit it at first, and then let me dig out the evidence from the house before I was relieved! She said...... "paused," saying that it was all His Majesty's intention, and threatened the slave and maid to be complicit with her. The slave and maid moved in a fit of anger, she was either afraid, and even instructed her subordinates to threaten the forbidden army! ”

Qing Ling roughly understood what was going on, and his face was a little embarrassed.

It seems that her father really can't wait anymore and wants to force her to give birth to an heir as soon as possible?

Qiu Zhi saw that Qingling was silent for a long time, and said: "The slave maid is ordered by the eldest prince to protect the emperor and concubine. The eldest prince once told that whatever the emperor is willing to do or unwilling to do, the slaves and maids must do their best to achieve it for the emperor! This time, the old woman used such a subordinate means to persecute the emperor, and the slave maid thought that even if she was a person sent by His Majesty, she would never be able to stay again! ”

The implication is that as long as Qing Ling gives an order, she will immediately take Xu Di's life.

Qing Ling thought about Emperor Hao's repeated exhortations and urges, and her mind became more and more confused, "Forget it, Xu Di is my father's person after all, and it is not our turn to deal with it." It's better that this incident didn't happen, and you should be more careful in the future. ”

"But ......"

Qiu Zhi was about to say something more, when there was a sudden knock on the door.

Qingling motioned for Qiu Zhi to get up, walked over by herself, opened the door, and saw that it was Luo Yao standing outside.

She was a little suspicious, she couldn't figure out if he had listened to the corner just now, her face was a little embarrassed, and she asked angrily, "What are you doing?" ”

Luo Yao's expression was rare serious, and he stretched out his hand to hand over a jade slip, "Master just sent a letter with Xuanniao." ”

He looked at Qing Ling, and there was a faint sadness in his eyes, "Second senior brother, passed away." ”
