Chapter 313: The Tragic Life of the Lucky One
Your Highness, Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, is here. ”
Hongmeng woke up Zhao Mingsheng, who was still in a trance, Zhao Mingsheng pinched the bridge of his nose with his hand supporting his forehead, and said with a tired face: "Dingwang? How can he find me, oh~ He really can't sit still, please go to the front hall to sit for a while, this king will change his clothes first. ”
Hongmeng has always been very curious about what Zhao Mingsheng and Mu Mo talked about later, because what they said afterwards was because of Mu Mo's request, so everyone except Zhao Mingsheng and Mu Mo retreated, which is why Zhao Mingsheng has been worried since he came back from Huya Mountain.
Hongmeng received the order and was about to turn around and push it out, but when he stepped out of the door, Zhao Mingsheng suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Hongmeng, has there been any news from Ling Xi recently?" ”
Hongmeng thought for a moment and then said: "Five days ago, Ling Xi wrote that the queen of Haoyue Kingdom has reached the period of giving birth, if nothing else, Haoyue Kingdom will usher in the birth of a princess or prince in the next few days. “
Because this matter has nothing to do with what Zhao Mingsheng told Hongmeng to star, so Hongmeng didn't think about informing Zhao Mingsheng when he received this letter, after all, Zhao Mingsheng is also a lot of things now, and he feels that there is really no need to disturb Zhao Mingsheng about such an inconsequential matter.
Zhao Mingsheng didn't react after listening to Hongmeng's words, and Hongmeng also knew that what Zhao Mingsheng wanted to hear was not these.
"What about Fengling Tower?"
"The subordinates haven't found any suspicious signs."
After Hongmeng retired, Zhao Mingsheng asked the maids to help him get better and then went out to see his fifth uncle.
Although Zhao Mingsheng's father has no children, he is the only prince who can inherit the throne. But there are a lot of brothers of Emperor Hu Xian, and now the king who came to the door is Zhao Mingsheng's favorite uncle who loves to be a demon.
When Zhao Mingsheng walked into the hall, King Ding was sitting on a chair and drinking tea leisurely. That calm and relaxed look is not like a guest who comes to visit, but a host who never puts others in his eyes.
Zhao Mingsheng smiled, picked a place close to King Ding, and sat down. He picked up the teacup sent by the maids, and when he brought it to his lips, he glanced at King Ding again before he slowly spoke: "Why did Uncle Fifth Emperor think of coming to me today?" ”
"Did you sign any agreement with Emperor Qiming of the Qiang Kingdom?"
Zhao Mingsheng's reaction to King Ding's questioning was only a smile, he put down the teacup and said, "It seems that Uncle Huang is very clear about my whereabouts." ”
"Hmph~ Now because of your self-assertions, how could Hu Guo provoke the Shangmu family. Langfang has been made into a miasma by the people of Yundao Market before, and now the people from the Qiang Kingdom have come to the door again, haven't you reflected? ”
"What do I have to reflect on, now that my father has entrusted most of the government affairs of Hu State to me, do I have to report to my uncle what I do now, I have never heard of such a precedent in Hu State."
"You~"
Zhao Mingsheng's words made the king speechless, and he looked at the angry man opposite him, but there was no turmoil in his heart. After all, for Zhao Mingsheng, who has manipulated the political situation in the 21st century, this king is simply not enough to see.
"Even if the emperor entrusts you with all the government affairs, can't you be the king of Hu Guo?"
"Then what does Uncle Huang want to ask?"
"What agreement did you sign with Emperor Qiming this time?"
"If I say that I am discussing the great plan for the peaceful development of Qiang and Hu, do you believe Uncle Huang?"
Zhao Mingsheng smiled at King Ding unscrupulously, and then left the hall with a casual face, leaving King Ding standing there alone, pointing at the air and scolding.
"Your Highness, if you treat the king like this, he will definitely go back to His Majesty's side to put on your little shoes for you later." Hongmeng followed behind Zhao Mingsheng, and the worried look on his face was undisguised.
Zhao Mingsheng naturally knew that his fifth uncle would go to blow some wind in his father's ears, but even if he told him everything he had discussed with Mu Mo yesterday, he might not be willing to stop.
"Okay, I'm not unclear about his personality, you can send a message to call Ling Xi back now, I have something for her to do."
"Didn't His Highness always doubt Ling Xi's identity, why did he assign her a task?"
Zhao Mingsheng seemed to be lost in thought, he ignored Hongmeng's words and walked alone on the way back to the study. Although Hongmeng still has many doubts in his heart, since Zhao Mingsheng doesn't say it, it's not good for him to ask anything.
When Hongmeng took Ling Xi back to the Prince's Mansion, it was already the second day. Ling Xi was left in Zhao Mingsheng's courtyard, and only after seeing Hongmeng leave did he take off the black scarf on his face.
Zhao Mingsheng happened to come out of the room at this time, and after seeing the woman's face clearly in the bright daylight, he smiled and said, "Do all beauties like to cover their faces with black scarves?" ”
Ling Xi didn't show a trace of fluctuation because of the man's words, and her voice was still cold. Facing Zhao Mingsheng's gaze, Ling Xi said lightly: "Because you have already seen my true face before, there is no need for me to hide it anymore." ”
This sentence can be regarded as an explanation of why she took off the face towel on her face, but Zhao Mingsheng did not pursue Ling Xi's unique behavior too much. He walked to the stone table and sat down before he spoke: "The task assigned to you before was just for you to play, and there shouldn't be anything to find out from the Haoyue Kingdom, so I'm going to let you do something serious when you come back this time." ”
"I know you suspect my identity, but I can tell you very clearly that we are not enemies, and that the people you want to deal with are also the ones I want to deal with."
When he said this, Ling Xi had already sat down in front of Zhao Mingsheng without any scruples, and Zhao Mingsheng had to be curious about such a woman who was full of doubts. For example, she clearly didn't have the intention to obey Zhao Mingsheng, but she suddenly came to the door when Zhao Mingsheng formed the Shadow, and for example, she knew that her martial arts were very strong, but she deliberately disguised herself as a weak party in front of outsiders. Intuition told Zhao Mingsheng that the woman in front of him was very dangerous, but if Zhao Mingsheng would avoid it, then he would not be called Zhao Mingsheng.
"Is it Fengling Tower?"
When Zhao Mingsheng asked the answer in his heart, he specially looked at Ling Xi's face. Although the woman's calm face was trying her best to maintain her composure, there was still a slight fluctuation when the three words fell. Zhao Mingsheng looked at Ling Xi's reaction and smiled, he turned around and said with Ling Xi face to face: "I can cooperate with you, and I can even help you in this matter, but my only request is that you have to help me protect someone." ”
Ling Xi raised her blank eyes, she stared at Zhao Mingsheng for a long time before she slowly spoke, "That person is really lucky. ”
As the lucky one in Ling Xi's mouth, he can be regarded as seeing what the real primitive life is in Linbo Country. Because he had nowhere to go, Yunyan could only live with Su Han in a small wooden hut with Su Han at all, and there was nothing in this hut except for two bamboo beds.
When Yunyan, who was still a little expectant in her heart, saw such a simple room, her reaction at that time was nothing but shock and suspicion.
"Can you really live here? There is not even a table where you eat on weekdays, and you don't have a bathroom here how you show, and there is a ......"
Su Han looked at Yunyan with black lines and picked on the house he had worked hard to build for half a month, and finally said when Yunyan took a breath: "It's already very good to have such a place to live, do you still think that this is Haoyue Country or Qiang Country, think about the small broken temple you saw before, do you suddenly think that this place is very good?" ”
Looking at Su Han's expectant eyes, Yunyan could only cover his eyes with his palms speechlessly. Although her heart was full of disgust, Yunyan really had nowhere to go now, so she could only follow Su Hanjiang for the night that night.
At night, the two of them were lying on their respective beds, Yunyan couldn't help but feel a little emotional thinking about his experience along the way, if he had listened to Yun Ting's words, would he have been able to steal a stable life? There are too many things she has experienced in this life, and the original trajectory has changed too much, and now she doesn't know how to continue when she comes to this point.
Su Han on the side may have felt that the room was too quiet, so he couldn't help but say, "Why did you think of coming to this place?" You obviously have no relatives and no reason in Linbo country, and this place is also rarely known to the world, how could you think of a girl's family to come to this kind of place? ”
Yunyan listened to Su Han's doubts and thought about it in his heart, and after thinking about it, he also felt funny. She replied, "I don't know how I got here, maybe it's just an escape along the way." ”
"Escape? What are you running away from? ”
Su Han seemed to be very interested in this topic, he chased after Yunyan and asked, Yunyan did not avoid this topic, and the two of them chatted, from being reborn and returning to this world, to trying to become stronger and recognize Yundao Ruins, and now they are physically and mentally exhausted and want to escape from the world.
Su Han couldn't help but sigh after listening to Yunyan's reminiscences. Yunyan heard the man's sigh with a faint sorrow and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you sighing?" ”
Su Han didn't answer Yun Yan's words, he just looked at Yun Yan's direction and said in a firm tone: "In the future, you just need to do whatever you want, and don't worry about superfluous things." ”
Move with your heart, do it willfully, what a wanton and chic life. But this life that sounds so simple is so unattainable for Yunyan, maybe from the moment she is reborn, her life is destined to be unsimple.
After arranging Yunyan's residence, Su Han went to the street to sell paintings every day with a few calligraphy and paintings that no one could appreciate, while Yunyan was left in the cabin. According to Su Han's meaning, it was best for Yunyan to stay where he lived without going anywhere. But isn't the reason why Yunyan wants to come to this Linbo country to see what this drifting fairyland is like, if you can't go out for a walk to see what the point is. Although Su Han didn't allow her to go out, Yunyan still secretly left the cabin while Su Han was selling paintings on the street, but she didn't know that if she could follow Su Han's advice, the crisis might not come so early.
