Chapter 84
Pushing open the door is a secret room, which is very luxurious unlike this dark and murderous Dali Temple.
The small Nanmu table was quietly placed next to the Taishi chair, the incense burner placed on it was burning with top spices, and the man in bright yellow clothes sat quietly on the chair under the candlelight, and did not raise his eyes when he saw someone coming in. He just reached out and picked up the freshly brewed tea on the side and took a sip lightly.
After a while, his eyes finally moved to Master Li. Master Li knelt down in front of the man with a plop, and said tremblingly: "Humble and incompetent. ”
The tea lid was gently lowered, and the man pushed the other cup on the table forward, and Master Li hurriedly raised his head and looked at the teacup, his face turned pale. At a glance, you can see that this teacup is made of fine white porcelain, and the beautiful and delicate patterns are carefully made by famous craftsmen.
This is the porcelain of his hometown!
A trace of conjecture flashed in Master Li's mind, and his heart seemed to fall into an infinite abyss, his pupils suddenly dilated, and his face was full of horror. He could only kowtow hard, hitting the granite all at once, constantly making a dull crashing sound, revealing his despair and hope. Soon a stain of blood appeared on the ground, dark and red in color, like a blooming manju saw.
The man never spoke, and continued to sip the tea in his hand, so ruthless that it seemed that the person begging him in front of him did not exist at all, and in this confined space, the despair and helplessness that was spreading in Lord Li's heart could not affect him at all.
"Master Li," the man finally spoke, the teacup was gently placed on the table, and Lord Li's movements stopped, his eyes at this time had become hollow, and the whole person seemed to be numb, he knelt stiffly on the ground, motionless, waiting for the final judgment that the man gave him.
"You will make it very difficult for me to do this," the man propped up his arms, half-leaned on the Taishi chair to prop up his head, and his gentle tone was full of helplessness, "The glory and wealth you want, the addition of officials and knights, which one has not reached your hands?" ”
"Huh?"
"But, it's so simple, why do you just. "Hey," the man's eyes were full of reluctance, "However, you have been with me for so long, and this is the first time you have not completed the task." Hearing this, Master Li raised his head suddenly, and a hint of hope flashed in his eyes.
With a sigh, the man stood up gently, walked to Lord Li's side, took out a good handkerchief from his arms, and gently wiped the blood on Lord Li's head, "Look at you, how can I bear to let you go?" ”
Master Li looked at the man in front of him with a friendly face in a daze, coupled with the wound on his forehead and the messy hair, he looked really embarrassed.
"But if I don't let you go, I'll be in danger." The man touched his chin thoughtfully, then slowly got up, and said as if stating a trivial matter: "Go home, freshen up, and hand over the fold tomorrow." ”
The man's tone was soft, but it fell on Lord Li's ears like thunder, and once again fell into the abyss of despair, and this time he clearly knew that there was no room for reversal. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the man, this man who could still speak it so gently and amiably, no matter how cruel it was.
"That teacup is good, it's from your hometown," the man strode out, his hand let go casually, and the handkerchief fell to the ground, but Lord Li's whole hair stood up: "Humble duty!" ”
"Don't be afraid, the teacup is a good teacup, and I will naturally suggest that the household department purchase it at that time," the man had already walked to the door, as if he remembered something, and said, "The tea on the table is good, leave it for you." ”
After speaking, he left without looking back, and slowly the figure disappeared in the darkness, and only Master Li was left in the secret room of Nuoda. finally got up, picked up the knife thrown by Shi Yuan, looked at it a few times, slowly put it into his sleeve, and walked silently. In the end, only the teacup sat there quietly, and no one touched it.
"Lord, shall we go back to the palace?" Shi Yuan leaned his head near the carriage curtain and asked cautiously. And inside the carriage, Gu Shengge also glanced at Ying Wei cautiously from time to time. I don't know why, Ying Wei's face has always been gloomy today.
Shi Yuan waited for a long time, but he didn't hear Ying Wei's voice, and he was struggling with whether to ask again, but the prince's face looked very bad, and then Gu Shengge's voice came from inside.
"Let's go back to the palace."
When Shi Yuan heard this, the confusion on his face immediately disappeared and he smiled and said, "Gotcha! Then he turned and told the coachman, "Go home." ”
"Yes."
Gu Shengge glanced at Ying Wei a few more times, and found that although he was still expressionless, at least he was not displeased because she had just made the decision on her own. was breathing a sigh of relief, and the silent "Big Buddha" next to him finally spoke up.
"If this king remembers correctly, Chun Changliu should have told you that he was not allowed to leave."
Gu Shengge twisted his head to the side with a weak heart, and his confidence was insufficient; "Yes."
Ying Wei didn't speak, his expression became even colder, and his eyes stared straight at Gu Shengge, as if he wanted to make a hole in her.
Gu Shengge was stared at and had no choice but to meet Ying Wei's eyes: "I did something wrong, it's not Mr. Chun's business." ”
Ying Wei looked away and said coldly: "This is his dereliction of duty. ”
As soon as Gu Shengge heard this, he knew that Ying Wei would punish Mr. Chun when he went back, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Chun explained your words to me, and I secretly ran out while he was not paying attention." Punish me if you want to. ”
Ying Wei didn't answer, just stared ahead, Gu Shengge was not a person who liked to shirk responsibility, and she didn't like to cause trouble to others, so she stubbornly continued: "Mr. Chun doesn't know martial arts, so naturally he can't look down on me." ”
"So, it's the king's fault?" Ying Wei suddenly turned around, looked at Gu Shengge, and asked word by word, "Is this king embarrassing him?" ”
Gu Shengge didn't expect Ying Wei to have such a big reaction at all, and he was stunned for a while and didn't know what to say.
Ying Wei watched Gu Shengge fall silent, and his eyes suddenly surged, like a storm was coming.
"Very good, the king is going to embarrass him."
"You!" Gu Shengge didn't mention it in one breath, and said angrily: "You are unreasonable!" ”
"This king is unreasonable?" Ying Wei suddenly approached, approaching Gu Shengge, and his tone was extremely cold: "Tell you, this king is the reason is the king's law!" ”
"What, angry? Distressed? Ying Wei suddenly pulled the corners of his mouth, his eyes were full of disdain: "I don't want him to be punished by this king?" ”
Listening to Ying Wei's strange words, Gu Shengge's face suddenly sank: "What do you mean." ”
"What do you mean?" Ying Wei sneered, suddenly grabbed Gu Shengge's arm, and said angrily: "Then you tell this king, what does this injury mean?!" ”
It was Gu Shengge's injured arm that Ying Wei was holding, because Ying Wei was pushing too hard, Gu Shengge frowned uncomfortably, "You let go of me, I don't know what you're talking about." ”
