241. 241 The bells jingle
Out of the gate of Chongxiao Pavilion, Shangguan Qingqing's heart couldn't settle down, her brows frowned, and an ominous premonition stretched out towards her like an invisible hand, tugging at her heart.
Chunxiao is just the opposite of her, because she is about to accept a concubine, she doesn't know how happy she is, if Shangguan Qingqing accepts the side concubine, then she can naturally get close to the water, maybe she can take advantage of a certain time Mu Jiuxiao is drunk and asleep and quietly climb into his bed, even if she can't accept a concubine in the end, it would be good to be able to have a room, thinking about it, she couldn't help laughing, and the expectation in her heart jumped on her face.
"What are you laughing at?"
She laughed so much that she ignored Shangguan Qingqing's cunzài, and Shangguan Qingqing gave a low reprimand to bring her back to her senses.
"Miss, no, didn't laugh at anything."
She restrained her smile and lowered her head.
Shangguan Qingqing was already depressed in her heart, she penetrated Chunxiao's mind and became even more irritable.
"What do you think you're thinking, I don't know?"
She stared straight at Chunxiao and said sharply,
"Stop dreaming! Don't forget, you're not a clean product/color, your body is broken, do you think the prince will want you? ”
Chunxiao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, Shangguan Qingqing's actions are mostly her behind her back, her body is broken is also for Shangguan Qingqing, but now she has been so humiliated, she is aggrieved at the same time, she is also full of resentment, she wants to vent but doesn't dare, she can only bite her lip stubbornly, her eyes burst with sharp light, and she didn't say a word.
Shangguan Qingqing was depressed in his heart, and only then did he feel that his words were a little excessive, but there was never a reason for the master and the slave to compensate for it, and the water that was spilled out of the words could not be collected if he wanted to.
She coughed lightly, wanting to relieve the awkward atmosphere, and said quietly:
"Actually, I'm just worried about that box of things, the princess has a weird mind and is elusive, who knows if she will guess something and make a fuss about that box of things."
Although she said soft words, Chunxiao was still angry, she said hers, Chunxiao lowered her head and did not respond.
Shangguan Qingqing continued:
"Chunxiao, what do you mean by the princess, why did you suddenly ask the princess to accept me as a side concubine? Is it because he is afraid that the prince will be empty and lonely after Lin Ling'er is gone, so he can't wait to find him a companion? It stands to reason that this prince and princess were so loving before, why did they suddenly say that they had changed? Besides, this princess is still pregnant, doesn't the prince feel sorry for her? ”
Shangguan Qingqing said as he walked.
In the past, Chunxiao would help her analyze this and that, but today, she suddenly said this:
"Why should Miss worry about it? At that time, you just need to be your side princess with peace of mind. Miss don't worry, there are some things, Chunxiao will definitely rot in the stomach, such as that box of things......"
"Smack"!
Before Chunxiao finished speaking, she suddenly received a slap in the face, which made her eyes glaze and her ears roared.
She covered her hot/spicy/spicy cheeks and didn't come back to her senses for a long time.
Shangguan Qingqing's words followed the sword rain, and he shot at her with his head and face:
"You dare to threaten me?"
She was already worried about the box of things, Chunxiao's words were simply a threat from Chi Guoguo, and the anger she had just suppressed suddenly rose again, and sneered,
"Chunxiao, don't think that if you do something for me, you can see no one, do you think I don't know your thoughts? After so many years by my side, don't you look forward to flying on the branches one day? It's a pity, even with you, dare to rob a man with me? What are your origins? A lowly prodigal/hoof/son, an unscrupulous low/stream/embryo/son, if it weren't for the sake of you who helped me, I would have driven you out of Hades' Mansion a long time ago, and it is your turn to threaten me today? ”
She searched her intestines and scraped her stomach, and said all the unpleasant words she could think of, and said how she could sting the other party, as if only in this way could she be happy,
"Don't forget, if it weren't for the fact that I would rather be misunderstood by the prince than keep you, now you have already become the concubine of Li Huichun's old horseman! You remember to me, I have raised you for so many years, not for nothing! ”
Chunxiao's cheeks quickly became red and swollen, and the pain remained on it, Shangguan Qingqing's words pierced her heart like a knife, and the pain was so painful that she forgot the pain, and only hatred remained.
She put down her hand, gritted her teeth, and knelt in front of Shangguan Qingqing with a plop:
"Miss, the slave knows that she is wrong, and the slave should not say those words to make the young lady angry. You are right, what kind of goods is the slave maid, the slave and the maid know in their hearts, the slave and the maid dare not trespass, the slave and the maid just want to be a dog by the side of the young lady, Miss Ren drives, there is no complaint, and she does not dare to threaten the young lady, please forgive the slave and the maid! ”
Although Chunxiao's words were a bit exaggerated, Shangguan Qingqing also knew that she was just angry for a while, and that box of things was like a sword hanging above her head, if she knew that Yun Tilting City would have such a mention, why did she need to bring it?
At this time, she just used the topic to play, using Chunxiao as a punching bag, scolding her while thinking in her heart that Chunxiao was a confidant who shared her weal and woe, and she would definitely understand her.
As everyone knows, everyone has dignity, the tree lives a skin, and the person lives a breath, when she is angry and feels better, how will Chunxiao feel?
It was freezing cold, and seeing that Chunxiao couldn't kneel, her heart softened, and she stretched out one hand to help Chunxiao up, sighed, and said:
"Alas, Chunxiao, you and I are sisters, we shouldn't be so ......"
Chunxiao was speechless, just silently listening to her,
"Okay, let's go back, now we can only wait for the news of the princess, take a step, count a step."
"Yes, slaves and maids listen to Miss."
Chunxiao muttered, carrying a lantern to light the way ahead for Shangguan Qingqing.
The snow has been falling, not big or small, the snowflakes are sprinkled, like a beautiful woman dancing, the two of them are walking, a cold wind hits/comes, and suddenly blows out the lantern.
The footsteps of the two of them paused, and they were already worried and scared in their hearts, and there was no light, and Shangguan Qingqing was even more timid.
She immediately moved closer to Chunxiao, desperately grabbed Chunxiao's wrist, and looked around, as if countless hands were reaching out to her in the dark night.
"Chunxiao, light the lantern quickly, I'm afraid."
Her voice trembled.
In the darkness, Chunxiao's voice became indifferent:
"Miss, the slave didn't bring flint."
Shangguan Qingqing became more and more annoyed:
"Why don't you bring it with you?"
"It was the slave who was careless, I didn't expect the lights to go out."
"Forget it, let's go."
Shangguan Qingqing was distraught, grabbing Chunxiao's wrist and urging her.
Chunxiao didn't speak again, just clenched her fists, let her grab herself, and a sneer gradually appeared on her face, the road of life will eventually come to an end, but if she hadn't illuminated Shangguan Qingqing, the road under Shangguan Qingqing's feet might soon come to an end.
When passing by the lake in front of Chongxiao Pavilion, a burst of drunken singing came as if there was nothing:
"Ding-ding-ding-dang...... Ding-ding-ding-dang...... Bell-ring-jingle-bell...... We - Skiing - Multi-Pleasure ...... We sat on the sled...... Ding-ding-dang...... Ding-ding-dang...... Ling'er ...... Bell ......"
When Shangguan Qingqing walked to the bridge, he couldn't help but stop, on the frozen lake, snowflakes and ice reflected each other in a silver world, Mu Tianning was lying on a simple sleigh with his back facing the sky, holding a pot of wine in his hand, and drank a few sips from time to time, and the intermittent and dissonant singing was what he sang.
"In the middle of the night, what kind of strange song is he singing?"
Shangguan Qingqing seemed to be talking to Chunxiao, and it seemed to be talking to himself, but Chunxiao didn't talk.
Mu Tianning sang a strange song from modern times, this is the "Jingle Bells" that Lin Ling'er taught him to sing, I remember how cheerful Lin Ling'er sang when they were playing together on the ice, her little face was frozen red, like a peach blossom in March, which made him unable to help himself.
But now that Lin Ling'er is dead, he can no longer hear her singing, no longer see her smiling face, his heart is convulsed in distress, and the pain is unbearable.
On the day Lin Ling'er was banished to the Snow Mountain, he didn't believe Yun Lingcheng's words anyway, he always believed that Lin Ling'er was wronged, and that night on the boat, her first/first/time was obviously his, it was his!
He was not convinced, he looked for Mu Jiuxiao's theory, looked for the theory of Yun Falling City, but the result was that Mu Jiuxiao asked someone to take him down and put him under house arrest in Xiangfengju, and the ban was not lifted until seven days later.
In the past seven days, he has tried to rush out countless times, he wants to rush to the Snow Mountain to find Lin Ling'er, he wants to find her back, he has always believed that she will not die.
But Mu Jiuxiao didn't give him a chance to rush out, he even tied him up with his own hands, watched him go on a hunger strike, and finally tossed to exhaustion, seven days have passed.
Mu Jiuxiao didn't care about him anymore, because he knew that no matter what he did, it would be too late, seven days was the biggest limit, the truth was that no one could survive three days in the snowy mountains, extreme low temperatures, no food supplies, wild beasts, avalanches...... All kinds of dangers will come at any time, and in seven days, Lin Ling'er will never come back.
He collapsed, and could only rely on alcohol to survive, for almost a month, he was crazy all day long, floating around the Hades Mansion like a wandering ghost, and the places where Lin Ling'er had been have become a world of drunken dreams and death.
Ah Yin and Chunyu stood not far from the sleigh, and they could only secretly wipe their tears when they saw him babbling nonsense and being drunk unconscious.
They knew that this was the first time Mu Tianning had fallen in love with a woman, and Lin Ling'er's death had hurt him so badly that he was afraid that it would be difficult to calm down for a while.
Not only did he miss Lin Ling'er, but his hatred for Mu Jiuxiao also occupied his soul, just like his thoughts about Lin Ling'er, which gradually became ingrained and difficult to extricate himself.
But he knew that he couldn't fight Mu Jiuxiao, and every time he saw Mu Jiuxiao, he had no other way but to sneer and say something ugly and harsh.
Ayin and Chunyu were really worried that he would collapse and collapse.
But Mu Jiuxiao always told them behind his back that they should serve Mu Tianning well and not go on a bad trip.
They don't understand, why Mu Jiuxiao never defends Mu Tianning's questioning and ridicule, and he is all up to him?
