Chapter 170: The Man with the Mask
At night, Qin Yu had been standing in the corridor of the Xuan Courtyard. Yue'er walked over and saw that His Highness was still standing there.
Yue'er knew that His Highness was in a bad mood at the moment, and she didn't dare to provoke him. He just walked over softly and asked, "Your Highness, are you okay?" ”
Qin Yu glanced at Yue'er and said lightly, "It's okay!" ”
"It's fine if you're fine, what if you're tired?" Yue'er felt that she couldn't take care of two patients by herself now.
Now Wanru is sick, Lingxi is seriously injured, and both of them need to be taken care of.
Qin Yu turned around and looked at Yue'er: "Are you tired?" ”
Yue'er smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”
His Royal Highness was about to walk forward, but Yue'er said, "Isn't Your Highness going to see Wanru?" How many hours has she been asleep and still hasn't woken up? ”
Qin Yu stopped, but did not speak.
Yue'er stepped forward and said, "Lingxi is taken care of by her senior brother, can you go and see Wanru?" I'm hungry too, so I'm going to get something to eat first. ”
Qin Yu seemed to be about to speak, but Yue'er ran away, and she seemed to act on whatever she thought of doing things.
Qin Yu looked at the faint candlelight in that room. reminded him of what Wanru said to him that day:
It's been a year, I've been out for a year, trying to forget you, but when your jade pendant appeared in front of me that day, I realized that there are some things, some people I may never forget.
I'm afraid that one day, you will end up like the fourth son, I'm afraid...... I'm afraid you'll die!
Thinking of this, Qin Yu slowly walked into the house.
Wanru has been asleep since taking Gongzixiao's medicine. It's been so many days, and it's the first time I've seen her sleep so peacefully.
Qin Zhang's condition before his death, although His Royal Highness did not see it with his own eyes, but from Wanru's mouth, it was concluded that Qin Zhang was executed by Changping Jun before his death.
That kind of scene must have been very bloody and cruel. Wanru suffered a lot of mental pressure during this time, and since she witnessed the killing of the fourth son, her whole person began to become depressed.
"I'm sorry I couldn't protect you." Qin Yu sat in front of the bed and spoke to Wanru.
But at this time, it was impossible for Wanru to hear what he said. Childe's tranquilizer is very effective.
Wanru slept very quietly, and under the curved eyelashes, she set off her delicate face. Wanru is originally good-looking, and her gentle temperament makes her even more endearing.
"Your Highness......" Wanru called His Highness softly.
"Wanru, are you awake?" Qin Yu asked softly, but Wanru still slept deeply.
It turned out that she was asleep and talking in her dreams, and Qin Yu thought she had woken up.
"Your Highness, in fact, I ...... It's been a lot of hard work. Wanru began to speak again.
Qin Yu sat like this, looking at her quietly, feeling a little inexplicably uncomfortable.
His Highness stroked her forehead with his hand, and she still didn't move.
"You know what? I've always had you in my heart, but I can't admit it in front of you, because I can't give you promises, which are the palest in these turbulent times. Qin Yu paused.
He continued: "There is another reason, and that is that revealing what you care about often allows the enemy to find your fatal weakness. ”
Many people may think that it is so happy to be born in the royal family and nobles and enjoy all the glory and wealth, but no one knows that the person who shoulders the royal order has to bear the great responsibility.
The death of the fourth prince dealt a great blow to Qin Yu. This kind of silently bearing the loss of his relatives, this pain, he still remembers it vividly.
More than ten years ago, his own mother died in front of her, watching her die, but he couldn't save her, what a cruel thing.
From that time on, he was determined to protect the people around him when he grew up. You must make yourself stronger, so that you can overcome everything that cannot be overcome, and overcome everything that cannot be defeated. These are the last words of the mother concubine before the temporary entrustment.
Two days later, Wanru's condition had improved, but Lingxi's condition was worrying. As a last resort, Gongzi Xiao could only write a letter to ask the master to come down the mountain in person.
Gongzi Xiao wasn't sure if Master would come down the mountain to save Lingxi, because Lingxi had obstructed the plan many times in that plan.
If Master just treats Lingxi as a pawn, then there is a good chance that Master will not come.
Time passed little by little, and Gongzixiao was also waiting in torment.
Three days later.
Master is finally here.
Master never went down the mountain to see anyone, but Gongzixiao was not surprised, Lingxi was Master's apprentice after all.
Yue'er was sitting in the dormitory when a man in a black robe walked in. Yue'er raised her head and looked at him, her huge figure, and what made her most curious was that this person was wearing a silver mask.
Fortunately, it was daytime, and if it was night, I would probably be scared to death.
Seeing this person walk in, Yue'er was a little stunned for a while.
Gongzixiao smiled and said, "This is a respected teacher." ”
"Your master?" Yue'er asked.
"Exactly!" Gongzixiao replied.
Yue'er only then stood up, "Master's Master's ......"
Hehe...... Gongzixiao smiled again, Yue'er wanted to say that this is Gongzixiao's master, and she worships Gongzixiao as her teacher, so the person in front of her is the master's master. It seems a bit complicated, what should I call him? Yue'er didn't think of it for a while.
"Niangniang will avoid it first, and the respected teacher will see the junior sister." Gongzixiao said.
"Avoidance? Why should I avoid it? Yue'er didn't understand, she felt that she was a woman, so she didn't have to avoid it.
Gongzixiao pulled her aside and whispered, "There is a habit of respecting the teacher's consultation, that is, no one can be there next to him." ”
Yue'er shook her head helplessly, thinking that these powerful characters have a bit of a strange temper and personality.
So Gongzixiao and Yue'er both walked out and closed the door.
"What are you thinking?" Gongzixiao looked at Yue'er as if she was thinking about a problem as soon as she came out.
"How old is your master?" Yue'er asked Gongzi Xiao.
"This ......" Gongzi Xiao couldn't answer for a while, because he never knew the age of the master, and he didn't dare to ask these questions.
At this time, His Royal Highness walked over, and Gongzi Xiao nodded to him.
"How's it going?" Qin Yu asked Gongzi Xiao.
"Venerable Master just entered, I don't know the situation yet, we are waiting here." Gongzixiao replied.
Yue'er pulled Gongzixiao's sleeve and asked, "There is a question that I have always wanted to ask?" ”
Gongzixiao didn't have to listen to it, she knew that the question Yue'er wanted to ask was definitely not an ordinary question.
"What do you want to ask?" Gongzixiao looked at her with a puzzled look.
"Why is your master wearing that silver mask today?" It turned out that Yue'er wanted to ask this question.
In fact, regarding this issue, Qin Yu also wanted to know how the person with the silver mask looked a little familiar.
Hehe...... Gongzixiao was a little helpless, "Since the day I followed Master, he has always been wearing a mask. ”
"Then do you know what your master looks like?" Yue'er is getting more and more curious.
"Well, I've never seen Master's face." Gongzixiao replied.
"You don't even know, or do I guess?" Yue'er smiled.
Qin Yu has long been accustomed to Yue'er's character, and Gongzixiao is a little helpless.
"Mother, please speak!"
"There may be three reasons why ordinary people wear masks: first, they are too handsome and don't want others to see them; second, it's too ugly to let others see it; Third, that is, he wants to hide his identity, so he wears a mask. Yue'er admires herself for being able to summarize so completely.
"And what kind of reason do you hope it is?" Qin Yu asked her.
After Yue'er's eyes rolled around for half a circle, she said with a smile: "Hehe...... I definitely hope it's the first case! ”
"That's all you need!" Qin Yu began to hit her again.
"What? Why don't I sneak a look tonight, and then I'll know the result, do you dare to bet with me? Yue'er thought that one was one play.
As soon as Yue'er's words came out, Qin Yu and Gongzi Xiao didn't want to pay attention to her.
