Chapter 560: It's Different After All
Xiao Xuanyan originally remembered that Lin Jinxiu said not to let everyone know about this matter to avoid panicking, but when the prince asked, he also had to report.
So Xiao Xuanyan squatted down under the pretext of adding food to the prince, and whispered to Huai Yanqing about Gu Ye.
No matter how big or small, even Lin Jinxiu told Huai Yanqing about the fact that he pushed him away and he was caught on the wrist.
"After Miss Lin found out that Gu Ye's poison was ineffective against herself, she took Gu Ye and left, and only after she came back just now did she say that the matter had been resolved, and she didn't let me say it, and wanted everyone to continue to participate in the reward banquet."
Who is Gu Ye? He is the one who has been trying to kill Lin Jinxiu from beginning to end!
Lin Jinxiu actually lured him away alone?
"I'll miss you." Huai Yanqing was suddenly scared for a while, Fang Cai had already misunderstood a little, he had to go to Lin Jinxiu now.
"Go ahead." Zhu Hongyu helped Huai Yanqing cover up, "When others asked, I said that you went to the thatched house." ”
"Thank you." After Huai Yanqing thanked him, he stood up and walked out.
Tinglan didn't hear what Xiao Xuanyan had just reported, and when she saw that Zhu Hongyu let Huai Yanqing go out to find Lin Jinxiu, not only did she not stop it, but even covered up, she only felt a little incredulous.
"General, do you really want the prince to comfort that Lin Jinxiu?" Tinglan came over and poured Zhu Hongyu a cup of tea, and asked her secretly in private.
Zhu Hongyu knew the truth, but he couldn't tell Tinglan, he just pressed his index finger to his lips: "Don't mention this matter again." ”
Ting Lan pouted: "Okay." ”
When Huai Yanqing walked out of the room, he still looked leisurely, but after going out, he couldn't wait to fly directly to Lin Jinxiu's side with light skills.
went to the kitchen and asked, but Lin Jinxiu didn't come back, so Huai Yanqing could only go out to find it.
Whether it was in Lin Jinxiu's own tent, or even the inn where she used to live, Huai Yanqing had searched for it, but she didn't find Lin Jinxiu.
"This shopkeeper, how long has she been out, why has she disappeared?"
Huai Yanqing was a little panicked, inquired all the way, searched all the way, and finally found her in a deserted place.
Lin Jinxiu sat on the ground, with a raging bonfire burning in front of him, and after a closer look, it seemed that there was a humanoid thing in the fire, which was constantly burning, and Lin Jinxiu sat on the side, adding two dry firewood to it from time to time to make the fire burn bigger.
"You're right." Lin Jinxiu seemed to be talking to the humanoid creature in the fire, "Indeed, it was a mistake for me to come here. ”
"This place doesn't belong to me, I should say, I don't belong here."
"You spread rumors everywhere outside, saying that I want to climb into Yanqing's bed, saying that I am cheap, now that I think about it, maybe what you said is right."
"I should have recognized who I really am."
The crackling sound of the flames completely resounded in Lin Jinxiu's ears, and she fell into a murmur alone: "Why do you want to develop the habit of going to him for everything?" If it is a long time, will it not be a disgrace to yourself......"
"People are harmonious and beautiful, but I am embarrassed alone, like a subordinate...... I'm meant to be a subordinate. ”
She didn't notice that there was someone behind her, so everything she said entered Huai Yanqing's ears.
What happened in this Xianglin City, and why did Lin Jinxiu become what he is now?
Huai Yanqing suddenly realized clearly that since the war, he had always been asking Lin Jinxiu for help, and he assured her to help, and she did not refuse once.
But she forgot that she was the person she wanted to protect.
"Shopkeeper." Huai Yanqing couldn't bear to hear Lin Jinxiu say this again, and called her.
Lin Jinxiu didn't move.
Huai Yanqing stepped forward and wanted to hug her from behind, but she blocked her with her hands.
"Sit." Lin Jinxiu patted the grass beside her.
Huai Yanqing sat down next to her and finally saw her face.
Because she had just drunk a lot of wine, Lin Jinxiu's face turned crimson, and with the sequelae of the poison rubbing on her body, she looked very bad.
"Look, this is Gu Ye." Lin Jinxiu scratched the back of her neck, it was always itching here and couldn't stop, and she couldn't get a few blood marks after scratching it.
"Don't scratch." Huai Yanqing grabbed Lin Jinxiu's hand, and she felt a little distressed when she saw those blood marks.
As for Gu Ye's matter, Xiao Xuanyan said everything, and he could guess the rest.
Since Gu Ye was covered in poison, what was burning in front of Lin Jinxiu should be the dead Gu Ye.
"How did you defeat him?" Huai Yanqing wanted to know more about what happened, which was the part that Xiao Xuanyan didn't know.
Lin Jinxiu looked at Huai Yanqing with his cheeks raised, and after looking at it for a long time, he decided to speak: "Gu Ye has a weakness, that is, after the poison on his body is removed, he will be abolished, my Holy Spirit Pot Water can detoxify, you also know, anyway, I am not afraid of the poison on his body, so I simply poured him a mouthful." ”
She omitted the intermediate process of her struggle with Gu Ye, and said with the simplest description possible: "After he died, Dr. Pei took some specimens and burned them here, and I didn't finish burning them when I came, so I helped him take a look." ”
Huai Yanqing knew how difficult this part Lin Jinxiu was talking about.
Gu Ye has become like this, and the only person who can touch him is Lin Jinxiu, but Lin Jinxiu is much weaker than Gu Ye compared to Gu Ye, both in terms of body and fighting skills.
He knew the word medicine man, and he heard that the strength and speed of medicine man would be greatly improved compared to normal people, and I am afraid that Lin Jinxiu's physical fitness higher than him has been weakened.
When he was still staggered at the banquet, Lin Jinxiu was actually doing such a dangerous thing outside alone, and because he didn't want to disturb everyone's Yaxing, he carried everything on his back.
Huai Yanqing wanted to say "hard work", it seemed that he was not solemn and intimate enough, and he wanted to say sorry, but in the face of the medicine man, only Lin Jinxiu could be opposed, and Lin Jinxiu would definitely not want him to be so sorry.
"Does it hurt?" Huai Yanqing asked.
Lin Jinxiu twisted his neck: "To be honest, it's a little itchy, it seems that the poison still has some effect on me, and it's not completely useless." ”
Huai Yanqing stretched out his hand to touch her, wanting to see what she had hurt, but Lin Jinxiu dodged her hand again: "Lord, men and women don't kiss, you have to focus on yourself." ”
Sure enough, I'm angry.
"Shopkeeper, don't think about it, Zhu Hongyu and I don't have anything at all." Huai Yanqing explained, "Just because the people around us are making a fuss doesn't mean that we will definitely do it. ”
Lin Jinxiu glanced back at Huai Yanqing: "What's going on with the marriage contract between the two of you?" ”
How did she find out about the engagement?
Huai Yanqing didn't know, but he still explained: "That was when my father Emperor and General Zhu's father were still alive, and the two of us were determined to be married in the womb, but the reason why the two of us went to be generals was related to this." ”
Lin Jinxiu couldn't tell what she was thinking in her heart, so she just listened quietly.
"Zhu Hongyu didn't want to marry at that time, so she fled to the frontier before marriage and started as a soldier, and I was released by her, and this time the wedding didn't happen."
It turned out to be a story of a pretty bride running away from marriage, and most of the endings of such stories are that the bride met the person who was going to be her husband later, fell in love with him, and finally became a family.
Huai Yanqing didn't know Lin Jinxiu's careful thoughts, and continued to follow his words: "After that, we met again in the frontier, we were both generals, and naturally we met as generals, and we never considered any children's affection, but I saved her once, and the relationship became familiar." ”
"Besides, Zhu Hongyu's escape from marriage has already refuted the emperor's face, and it is completely impossible between us."
Huai Yanqing is indeed very honest with Lin Jinxiu, which can be seen from his eyes.
He was originally the pride of the sky, but he ran out for Lin Jinxiu and wanted to explain to her, but the more he was like this, the more Lin Jinxiu could feel that there was an insurmountable gap between them.
The two of them have never really been together, isn't it because they feel that they will give each other a lot of trouble and drag?
"Shopkeeper, you listen to my explanation, I really don't have any other ideas, I'm single-minded, really." Huai Yanqing was already a little anxious, he reached out and grabbed the corner of Lin Jinxiu's clothes, very panicked.
Lin Jinxiu covets the sense of peace of mind with Huai Yanqing, and Huai Yanqing naturally likes to be with her, he cherishes the relationship between the two very much, Lin Jinxiu is for him, a port where a boat can be parked in this floating life.
This is not just a port, when Huai Yanqing wants to rest by her side, she will give him the greatest tenderness and comfort, serve him a cup of hot tea, and give him a homely feeling.
"I know." Lin Jinxiu grabbed his hand and comforted, "I naturally believe in you, and all the promises I made to you before have been counted." ”
"For you, I will not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire."
"But, Yanqing, but." Lin Jinxiu stood up, Huai Yanqing wanted to grab her hand but didn't catch it, so she could only watch her dressed in single clothes and walk in the direction of the rising sun.
At this time, it is sunrise.
Looking at the sun that was jumping upwards in the sky, Lin Jinxiu said softly: "You can't give what I want." ”
Can't give it?
Huai Yanqing raised her head suddenly, seeing Lin Jinxiu turning to face her, her eyes were full of sadness, and she couldn't love her.
"In my life, I didn't seek glory and wealth, I didn't seek a position of power, I just wanted to be able to support the people around me, raise my children, and live a plain life.
Huai Yanqing stood up with her, watching her step by step back, as if she wanted to stay away from him.
Lin Jinxiu shouted at him: "But the cruelest thing in the world is nothing more than love, you and I are not fools, can't you see the feelings between each other?" But we don't dare to take the next step, Yanqing! ”
"If I say, I want a lifetime, a lifetime, a couple, Yanqing, can you give it to me?!" Lin Jinxiu paused word by word, looking at Huai Yanqing's eyes, as if questioning, but also like complaining, the experience of this time woke her up and made her really understand where her heart knot.
