269. 269 Gambling and Redemption
There were only two guards and Mingyue left in the woody room that exuded musty smell, and soon, there was a sound of Mingyue ghost crying wolf howling in the firewood room, as if it was not lightly beaten, and the guards outside the door couldn't help but shrink their necks when they heard it, and pouted:
"This Qin Ling, I look at him honestly on weekdays, but I didn't expect to be so ruthless! Tut-tut...... It's a pity for this little girl......"
In his tsk, Mingyue's voice became smaller and smaller, until he couldn't hear it later.
The firewood house is very remote, no one will come here at night, the guards guarding the door yawn for a long time, Daegu is in the south of Wani, the further south you go, the higher the temperature, the environment is better, and people are easy to get sleepy.
The door opened, Qin Ling walked out with Mingyue on his shoulder, and the guards saw Mingyue hanging her head, her hair was messy, and there were a few blood marks on the back of her hand, and she didn't move, so she couldn't help asking:
"Dead?"
Qinling Road:
"I gave her a breath, it's not a good thing to have blood on her hands after all, and it's not the blood of the enemy, it's the blood of a little girl, brother, I haven't married yet, I don't want to get bad luck. Besides, tonight is the night of the full moon, and I heard that the woman who dies tonight is more likely to absorb the yin qi of heaven and earth and turn into a powerful ghost, I don't want to be haunted by a powerful ghost in the future......"
Hearing the word "powerful ghost", the other guard couldn't help but shudder, then looked around and said:
"That's right."
He glanced at Mingyue as he spoke, and then remembered what he wanted to do with her just now, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying he felt, and he involuntarily took two steps back and laughed dryly.
Qin Ling said again:
"At this time, everyone is probably asleep, the princess asked us to throw her into the mountains to feed the dogs, this nearest mountain is at least more than three miles away from here, I really don't want to move."
"Yes, not to mention walking at night, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and I can't sleep for a few hours when I come back, and I have to get up and hurry again."
"Okay, okay, let's go quickly, don't wait until the time comes, the ghosts will haunt us, and we won't be able to come down the mountain."
Qin Ling said, carrying Mingyue and taking the lead in walking to the small door behind the post house, this is the door for people to walk under the minions on weekdays, but now at this time, most people have already slept, and it is very quiet here.
The other guard's pace grew slower and slower, until he sneered:
"Hehe, brother, you go first, I'll go and relieve my hands, come when you go, come when you go!"
When Qin Ling turned around to look, the person was already gone, Qin Ling's gaze glanced around, and then turned around, a deep smile overflowed from his lips, it seemed that he was frightened by his words.
Out of the back door, Qinling picked a remote path to walk, due to the arrival of the Hades and the princess, this small city has been under martial law early, after the night and the end of the night, each family must close the door, not allowed to go out, so from the post house to the nearest mountain, he did not meet anyone on the way, it is obviously a city with a population of 500,000, but at this time it looks like an empty city.
At the foot of the nearest mountain, he first checked the road up the mountain, the mountain is not high, but the trees are dense, the road up the mountain is a few paths that people have stepped on, he carried the bright moon on his shoulder hard, for fear that she would fall down halfway, and then chose one of the easier to walk, quickly went up the mountain, and after a while, he disappeared in the woods.
The woods are dense, especially standing here at night, as if isolated from the world, Qin Ling carefully put Mingyue down in the woods, and at this time he only heard Mingyue's ouch, sat on the ground, shook and fell, and couldn't stop gasping.
Qin Ling clenched his fists and said in a low voice:
"Miss Mingyue, I was offended just now."
Mingyue was still dizzy until this time, lying on the ground and breathing heavily:
"If you carry it again, I'll really be broken."
She pretended to be dead all the way and was carried on her shoulders by Qin Ling, his hard bones were on her abdomen, but she didn't even dare to gasp, for fear of being seen as flawed, her head kept hanging down, and the blood backflow made her head congested and became groggy.
Qin Ling half-knelt down beside her and asked with concern:
"How's it going, can you still go?"
Mingyue sat up with her body swaying, nodded, and said:
"Yes, you can walk, what about horses, horses?"
Qin Ling stood up, put two fingers to his lips, blew a whistle, and after a while, the sound of horses' hooves sounded on the mountain path.
Mingyue stood up with the support of Qin Ling, the sound of horses' hooves came from far to near, and when she got close, she found that it was two people and three horses.
The two men on the horse jumped off the horse and greeted each other by hugging their fists with Qin Ling, and Qin Ling said to Mingyue:
"This is already in Daegu, and it is much easier to move, these two can ensure that the girl can travel all the way unhindered, escort the girl back to the capital safely, and the girl should go on the road quickly."
Mingyue didn't say a word, and quickly got on the horse with the help of Qin Ling, and didn't even say goodbye, and left with the two of them as if she were running for her life.
Mingyue's death made the people around Yun Chengcheng panic, all of them were cautious, for fear that they would be punished for making a mistake and get the same fate as Mingyue, but unexpectedly, Yun Chengcheng's anger did not affect more people, after the guards dragged Mingyue away, Yun Chengcheng asked someone to close the door, sent away all the maids around him, and left him alone in the room.
She looked at the ginseng soup marks left on the white Persian carpet, and couldn't help but wonder whether what she had done was right or wrong, she was a little confused.
Sitting down in front of the dresser, looking at the face of Yun Chengcheng in the mirror, she put on this mask again, not like at first to marry the princess, it was to repay the favor, this time, she was engaged in a gamble and redemption.
The words that Yun Chengcheng said that night still echoed in her ears, she said that Mu Jiuxiao had begun to suspect that the child in her womb was not his, if this was the case, the child would definitely not be able to be saved, in order to keep Mu Tu's only bloodline, she agreed to the request with Yun Chengcheng, and became a princess again.
As long as she can keep Mutu's child, she is willing to make this deal with Cloud Allure, which is a way to redeem her heart.
Yun Chengcheng also said that as long as Lin Ling'er disguised herself as her and went to Nangong Jue, she would definitely know Lin Yu'er's whereabouts, and in order to find her sister, she chose to believe her for the last time, so this was a gamble.
In addition, she has to return to Daegu after all, if it weren't for Yi Rong Chengyun Alluring City, she should still be trapped in Luo Cui Xuan now, without Yi Rong's special tools, I'm afraid I don't know what year and month she will be able to get out.
However, the night before leaving, Mu Jiuxiao came to Chongxiao Pavilion and said to her, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart, and her original unwavering belief was gradually shaken.
He said that no one can replace the status of Cloud Allure, and the child she gave birth to will also be the eldest son of Hades, which is completely contrary to Yun Allure's statement, who is lying?
I heard that this time it was not just the wish of the clouds, but the lord of Daegu also seemed to have sent an envoy, saying that he missed the princess and hoped that the king of Hades could take the princess back to his relatives.
Based on this, or she can understand it this way, after all, she is going back to Daegu to save her relatives, and Mu Jiuxiao must stabilize Yun Chengcheng in order to carry out the matter of saving her relatives smoothly, and she can't get into trouble with Daegu because of this matter, let alone let the princess go and never return.
In any case, one thing she can be sure of, Yun Chengcheng loves Mu Jiuxiao, and loves this promising position of Hades Princess, looking at today, except for marrying those half-old lords, there is no more suitable marriage than marrying Mu Jiuxiao, whether it is Yun Chengcheng or other women, who would give up such a position lightly?
Therefore, Yun Chengcheng made such an act, except that she wanted to keep the child who did not belong to Mu Jiuxiao, there was really no more appropriate explanation.
Thinking of this, she relaxed a little, maybe because she was pregnant, so she always liked to think crankily, just like whenever she remembered what Mu Jiuxiao said that night, she would be angry, she laughed at her brain.
He is really an "amorous seed", while appeasing Yun Chengcheng so well, saying that the position of Princess Hades will never be replaced, and that her role in Lin Ling'er is only to give birth to Mutu's child, no wonder he ignores her child, it turns out that he has always thought that it is Mutu's flesh and blood, so he, like her, is working hard to keep Mutu's bloodline.
What can only be his woman forever, can never leave him, now it's all a joke, in the eyes of men, whether it is past, present, or future women, they are not as important as their career and bloodline, women in their eyes, can never get rid of the synonym of "tool".
So she had already made a plan, and when she arrived in Daegu, she would meet the opportunity to act, find an opportunity to meet Nangong Jue, and after finding her sister, she would take her sister to live together.
Just thinking about it hatefully, there was a voice from the next person outside:
"The prince has arrived."
She was shocked, along the way, in addition to confirming her safety every day, Mu Jiuxiao would hardly communicate with her too much, what's wrong with today, he still came so late? You don't want to share a bed with her, do you?
Thinking of this, her eyes widened in shock, and she wished she could find a place to hide.
But after thinking about it, now is not the time to break away from him, if you want to go to Daegu smoothly, it is still the safest as the princess of Hades, and if you want to see Nangong Jue at that time, it is also the most advantageous identity of the princess, she must stabilize.
"Dangdangdang" knocked on the door, and she hurriedly ran to the door and pressed her body against the two doors to prevent Mu Jiuxiao from breaking in.
"Lord Wang, the concubine has already fallen asleep, if there is nothing important, please talk about it tomorrow."
She learned the tone of Yun Chengcheng, looking high, after all, she grew up with Yun Chengcheng since she was a child, and she came to Yun Chengcheng's every move, word and deed at her fingertips.
It was quiet outside the door, she waited for a long time, and he didn't push the door in directly, for Yun Tilting City, Mu Jiuxiao seemed to know how to be polite, unlike the one who treated her before, and broke in directly without knocking on the door.
