Chapter Twenty-Eight: Taking Her as a Hostage
Two days of continuous light rain, so that the day of the cool weather added a bit of cold, and these two days of Chang'an is not very peaceful, the old emperor of the old disease attack bedridden, the favored Qing concubine actually died on the second day of being beaten into the cold palace, the original prince was demoted to a commoner was imprisoned in Dali Temple.
Although the people didn't dare to say it blatantly, they were all talking in private, saying that this Dayan was afraid that the sky was going to change, and who said it wasn't?
Because of the recurrence of the old emperor's old illness, there is no need to go to the court this morning, as for Dugu Liancheng, who wants to enter the palace to serve the illness during the day, Ruan Wushuang snuggled lazily on the soft couch, but his eyes looked at the wet bluestone slab in a daze, but he didn't know why he was inexplicably uneasy in his heart, If she wants to say why, she can't say why.
"Childe. ”
The sudden voice pulled Ruan Wushuang's thoughts back, she stabilized herself, subconsciously raised her hand and rubbed her slightly pantothenic eyelids, and said in a clear voice: "What's wrong?"
"Mowgli is outside the door. Seven Shadows said lightly.
Hearing this, Ruan Wushuang's hand paused, thinking that since that night, she thought that he would not come to look for her again, but she didn't want to come anyway, speaking of which tomorrow is the day the envoy leaves, and he must come to say goodbye to herself, thinking of this, she suddenly opened her brows.
"Let him in. ”
"Yes. Qiying glanced at Ruan Wushuang, who had an indifferent look, and withdrew.
At that time, outside the gate of the house.
Xiao Wuji stood with his back to the vermilion gate, he stood with his hands and looked at the continuous light rain, his eyes looked through the hazy rain curtain as if he saw when they first met, at that time he thought it was fun, but he didn't want to play, so he lost a heart, and when he wanted to get it back, he found that it had taken root, so he simply indulged himself to sink.
How good would it be if he could go back to that time? Then he would definitely express his heart to her as soon as possible, so that she would never have the chance to fall in love with Dugu Liancheng again, but it was a pity............ Thinking of this, his eyes became more and more gloomy.
"Prince Xiao, please come in. ”
Hearing the sound, Xiao Wuji slowly turned around, looked at the expressionless Qiying, and walked in, he thought that she would not see him again, so she still remembered the old love!
"How do you have time to come here today?" Xiao Wuji Fang stepped through the door, and she asked with a smile.
"Naturally...... Missed you. Xiao Wuji smiled playfully, and his tone paused deliberately, but he didn't know that the words had just fallen, but Ruan Wushuang's originally smiling face suddenly sank, and his willow eyebrows wrinkled even more.
His heart couldn't help but chuckle for a moment, and then he added with a smile: "Just kidding! Isn't it tomorrow that we are going to leave for Mingqi? ”
After the words fell, he sat on the chair opposite Ruan Wushuang with a chic swing of his robe, but he couldn't help but think bitterly in his heart that in the past, she would definitely smile at Yanran and then laugh and scold him, but now it was different, and there was an insurmountable barrier between him and her.
Hearing this, Ruan Wushuang always frowned, smiled lightly, she naturally noticed that she and him were no longer the same, she actually didn't want to be like this in her heart, but she was afraid that it would not be so, what did he have in his heart, so he simply "ruthless" a little.
"Since it is practice, it is natural that we can't do without wine, so we have to drink two glasses today. Ruan Wushuang said proudly, his eyebrows and eyes seemed to smile like flowers.
"Hmm. Xiao Wuji pursed his lips and smiled, looking at her with a trace of unspeakable love hidden in the lower part of his eyes.
After a while, the two arrived at Wanxiang Building.
"Come on, you can eat as much as you want, and I'll be the east today. Ruan Wushuang poured wine with a smile, and handed a glass of wine to Xiaoji.
"Then I'm not welcome today?" Xiao Wuji also smiled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, took the wine she handed over, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
"Good wine. ”
"That's nature, this is Wanxianglou's rare daughter red. Ruan Wushuang took a sip, and then explained with a smile.
"But the taste is still a little worse than ten years Du Kang. Xiao Wuji drank the wine in the glass and smiled casually, as if he had no intention of mentioning it.
"It's enough to have this daughter drink red, where can I find Du Kang for ten years?" When the words fell, he raised the lamp and drank it.
"Speaking of which, I have two pots on the farm, would you like to try them?" Xiao Wuji suddenly proposed.
"Okay!" Ruan Wushuang replied without thinking about it.
Looking at her defenseless smile at him, his heart was uncomfortable for some reason, but for tomorrow's plan, he had to hide the bitterness in his heart and pretend to smile casually.
Then the two of them came to the first village outside Chang'an City, and found a quiet place, so they sat cross-legged, and one of them drank a pot of wine.
"In the past ten years, Du Kang has been really good. Ruan Wushuang raised his hand to wipe the wine stains on the corner of his mouth, smiled with crooked eyebrows, and praised him sincerely.
"How does it taste?" asked with a smile.
"Mellow, fragrant, and strong. When the words fell, it was a wine burp.
"Huh. Seeing her playful appearance, he couldn't help but chuckle.
"Huh...... Belch...... Heh......" Ruan Wushuang held the wine jug, thinking that the strength of the wine was really big, she only drank a few sips, and her head began to be groggy, and stars appeared in front of her, she subconsciously shook her head, trying to sober herself up, but she didn't know that it was suddenly dark in front of her, and she lost consciousness in an instant.
Xiao Wuji put her faint on the bed, his eyes were slightly condensed and complicated to look at her, his hand unconsciously caressed her slightly red little face, as gentle as the April breeze. Ah Ruan, sleep well, when you wake up, everything will be settled, and no matter how much you hate me, I will bring you back to Mingqi.
Suddenly, he dropped a shallow kiss on her forehead, and a touch of firmness flashed under her calm eyes.
The night was getting late, the cool breeze was slow, and the light rain that had been falling for two days finally stopped.
"Seven Shadows, what about Wushuang?" Dugu Liancheng came straight to Su Mansion after coming out of the palace, thinking that she was waiting for him to come back to eat together in this house as usual, but he didn't know that she didn't see her tonight.
"I came here today, and then my wife went out with him, saying that it was to pray for tomorrow's departure back to Mingming. Hearing the sound of the seven shadows word by word, he was a little uneasy in his heart, after all, the master let him follow his wife all the time, but this lady had a stubborn temper, so he didn't let him follow.
"Where did they go?" Dugu Liancheng asked lightly, he knew her temperament best, so he didn't question and punish Qiying, but although he went out with Xiaowuji, he had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Wanxiang Building. Seven Shadows trembled and said, for fear that his master's next sentence would be to punish himself. The words fell, and when the seven shadows raised their heads again, there was no shadow of Dugu Liancheng in the same place.
"Whew. Seven Shadows subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. The Seven Demons walked over with a smile and patted him on the shoulder, quipping, "Escaped." ”
Hearing this, the Seven Shadows raised their eyebrows, and subconsciously raised their hands to open the hand that the Seven Evils put on their shoulders, but they didn't know that they were in vain.
The Seven Evils smiled proudly and said, "Hurry up and go to Wanxiang Building, you really want to be the master!"
"Hmm. Seven Shadows nodded.
At that time, when Dugu Liancheng pushed open the door of Tianzi No. 1 room, there was no shadow of Ruan Wushuang inside, only Xiaowuji was drinking alone. For this reason, Dugu Liancheng's heart sank inexplicably.
Seeing Dugu Liancheng push the door in, the corners of Wuji's mouth couldn't help but pout a trace of unclear meaning.
"You fox is finally here, how about a drink with me?" The words fell, and regardless of whether Dugu Liancheng agreed or not, he took a cup and poured a glass of wine.
The tone was the same as before, but when I heard it in my ears today, it was a little cold.
Dugu Liancheng's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and then walked to the opposite side of Xiaowuji Shi Shiran sat down, obviously, Xiaowuji's posture seemed to be waiting for him.
He stared at the smiling Xiaoji, and then lowered his eyes to look at the wine in the cup, which was actually glowing under the light of the candlelight.
"What about her?" he asked in a cold voice instead of drinking the wine, his indifferent expression making it impossible to see what he was thinking, but he didn't know how much dryness was hidden in his heart.
"Who?" asked without a puzzled expression, taking a sip of his drink. Without waiting for Dugu Liancheng to open his lips, he suddenly realized again: "Ah Ruan?"
Hearing this, Dugu Liancheng's expression couldn't help but sink a little.
"Don't worry, Ah Ruan is in a very safe place now, as long as you are willing to cooperate. Xiao Wuji turned the empty wine cup in his hand and said casually. His Ah Ruan is not only his inner demon, but also the weakness of Dugu Liancheng.
"Cooperation?" Dugu Liancheng sneered contemptuously, and at this moment he only felt a fire in his chest. Xiaowuji threatened him with Wushuang, good, good, but he had to be controlled by others.
"Not bad. Xiao Wuji chuckled and said, tsk is really wonderful, for the first time in so many years, he has seen Dugu Liancheng out of control, and Ah Ruan's weight in his heart is really not light. Speaking of which, although he and Dugu Liancheng have studied art together, they have different positions in the end, how can the brotherhood of the teacher compare to thousands of miles of rivers and mountains?
"Let's talk about it. Dugu Liancheng stabilized his mind, and said in a calm voice, there was already a cold light between his eyebrows, and the coldness around him spread wantonly.
"Recently, I have researched a new formation, and no one has tried it yet, so why don't you do me this favor?" The road is light and breezy without any mowgli.
"Xiaowuji, Dayan's water is not something that anyone can stir. Dugu Liancheng said coldly, on the day of tomorrow's envoy's departure, Xiao Wuji came out at this juncture, and he just wanted to contain him with the formation, and as for the purpose, he was naturally about to come out.
"Haha, why is it so far? Dayan's game, I don't even have chess, how can I stir it?" Xiao Wuji said half-jokingly and half-coldly.
"Chess, what about the knife?" Dugu Liancheng said meaningfully, although he was only guessing, but at this time, it was as if he knew everything, and seeing the fleeting surprise on Xiao Wuji's face, he knew that his speculation was probably not far from ten! As for who was the knife, it was up to debate.
"It seems that you don't want to help me try the formation, then take your leave. Xiao Wuji was surprised, flicked his sleeves, stood up and was about to leave.
"What formation?" Just as Xiao Wuji was about to raise his hand to open the door, Dugu Liancheng finally asked out loud, even if he knew that Xiao Wuji would not hurt Wushuang, he would always feel at ease when he saw her.
Hearing this, Xiao Wuji's hand slowly retracted, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and Dugu Liancheng finally took the bait..................
