Chapter 57: Master's Conspiracy
Quietly looking at Fenghua for a long time, after a while, Ruoxin shook her head and said in a low voice: "I have already obtained the Imperial Ghost Black Wood, and I have collected all three things in my hand, and I will find the rest by myself, you don't have to accompany me anymore." Moreover, your identity is still hostile to Dongheng, and now there is no one to protect it secretly, and it is very dangerous in Dongheng. You'd better hurry back to Kelan. ”
Although Ruoxin didn't say it, Fenghua knew what she was thinking. After Guan Jingtian's incident, she was worried that he would be in danger if she was involved again, so she was in a hurry to draw a line with him.
Fenghua's face was calm, with a warm smile on his face, he shook his head and said: "I have been expelled from Kelan Imperial City, and now I am no longer Qin Zhenhua, the prince of Kelan, just Fenghua, an ordinary person. Besides, your current state allows you to go on the road alone, I don't worry. ”
Seeing that Ruoxin still looked faintly resistant, Fenghua thought of her words last night, staring at Ruoxin's eyes with quiet eyes, with a calm and stable stability, he said slowly: "Have you forgotten that I have the ability of Ke Lan Divine Envoy?" I'm going to take good care of myself. I promise you that if there is danger, I will definitely leave on my own. ”
The carriage finally embarked on the return journey to Dongheng Capital, Ruoxin's mental state was always a little aggrieved, and she barely opened her mouth along the way, she sat quietly in the carriage, only when the carriage passed a mountain road that could see the ghost city from afar, she lifted the curtain, stared at the dead city that was foggy all day long, and slowly went away.
......
The road was unimpeded, and nine days later, Ruoxin and Fenghua finally returned to Dongheng Capital.
Fenghua half-lifted the curtain and glanced at the bustling capital market outside the carriage. After lowering the curtain, Fenghua turned to Ruoxin and asked, "What are your plans to return to the capital?" ”
Ruoxin lowered her eyes, raised her hand and gently stroked the black wood in her arms, and said: "I want to go to the Yingning Wangfu first, the Yingning King and the Guan family are world friends, I have to tell them about Guan Jingtian first." ”
Fenghua nodded, and instructed Chen Lian outside the car: "Go to Yingning Wangfu first." I will accompany Ruoxin into the mansion to see King Yingning, you go to find an inn nearby, stay for a few days, and make plans for the rest. ”
"Yes."
Ruoxin looked up at Fenghua and said, "You also have injuries on your body, don't go around with me, I will go to you after I go to Yingning Palace." Ruoxin has not forgotten Fenghua's injury in the ghost town, along the way, he always does not change the medicine in front of her, Ruoxin knows that he doesn't want her to worry.
With a gentle and soothing smile on Qingjun's face, Fenghua said: "A little skin injury, it's not in the way, it's almost fine now, you don't have to worry about it." You are alone in the capital, and Bai Rong is not by your side, with me by your side, you can feel more at ease. ”
Ruoxin smiled slightly and half-lowered her eyes.
Together with Mo Mo, the three of them got out of the carriage in front of the Yingning Palace. Ruoxin's current identity is special, in order to avoid extraneous branches, she still covered her appearance with a hood of her cloak. Without revealing her identity, Ruoxin took the wooden card that King Yingning gave her at the beginning and asked the guards of the palace to pass on the name. Ruoxin knew that the name of the Dao was a confidant of King Yingning, and when she didn't know the current situation in the capital, it was the most appropriate to find her.
It didn't take long for Daoming to hurry out. She bowed respectfully to Ruoxin and said, "Sir, I've been waiting for a long time. ”
Ruoxin shook her head and said, "Dao name, can the prince be in the house?" ”
"Yes, sir, go in with the slave and maid, and the slave and maid will go and invite the prince immediately."
Dao Ming did not lead Ruoxin to the lobby of the palace to entertain guests, but directly led the three of them to Qinxin Garden, where King Yingning slept alone.
"Xian Yu has already gone to invite the prince, sir, please wait."
Ruoxin took off the hood that covered her face, nodded slightly to Daoming, and said, "Thank you Daoming, you go and do your business, we just wait for the prince here." ”
"Yes." Michimei replied respectfully and withdrew from the hall. Before leaving, she glanced sideways in the direction of Fenghua with a scrutinizing gaze, and then lowered her eyes and left after a slight flash.
When entering the Qinxin Garden, Dao Ming had already found someone to send a message to King Ying Ning, so not long after Dao Ming left, King Ying Ning's figure appeared outside the hall. Glancing into the hall, King Yingning's gaze stayed on the man in a pale cyan robe sitting on the seat on the other side of Ruoxin. He squinted for a moment, then hooked his lips and smiled, "Fenghua, we meet again." ”
Fenghua looked sideways at the door, he slowly got up from the chair and nodded politely to King Yingning, "Lord Wang." ”
King Ying Ning walked into the hall and said with a smile: "You really haven't changed." ”
He had learned from his subordinates that Fenghua was kicked out of the palace by Emperor Ke Lan, and although Fenghua in front of him was described as a lot haggard, his gentle and light temperament had not changed at all. The handsome face is exquisite, the wind god is elegant and elegant, and the warmth is like jade. I really don't know if there is such a brother, whether the prince of Dongheng should be proud or jealous.
King Ying Ning turned to Ruoxin, he hadn't seen her for more than half a month, and when he said goodbye, he didn't feel a warmth in his heart. was about to tease her a little, but when he saw Ruoxin's solemn expression and tears on his indifferent face, King Ying Ning looked around again, and when he didn't see Guan Jingtian, his complexion changed slightly.
Ruoxin walked straight up to King Yingning, took a few deep breaths, and tried to suppress the grief in her heart to tell the story of what happened in the ghost city.
After everything was finished, no one in the hall spoke, only the sound of indifference sobbing softly, and a thick sentimentality permeated several people.
Fenghua walked behind Ruoxin and reached out to gently hold her arm. Ruoxin closed her eyes and said slowly: "Lord Wang, it is my fault that something like this will happen to Guan Jingtian, and I will ask Master Guan and Mrs. Guan for their guilt one day." ”
King Ying Ning let out a long breath, then walked to a corner of the hall with his hands in his hands, faced the wall, and said in a low tone: "Before leaving the capital, Sedum also bid farewell to this king here. Do you know what he said at the time? ”
He said to the king that everyone should have a time in their life to give it a go without hesitation. He wants to be a man who can protect the woman he loves, and he says that if he chooses a path, he will definitely stick to it, and no matter what the consequences are in the end, he has no regrets. ”
"In the memory of this king, Sedum has always been a simple child. It was the first time he had told the king his choice so seriously and so firmly. At that time, the king thought that Sedum had grown up and was a man who stood up to the sky. He is no longer a child who everyone has to be careful to take care of, and who always falls when he stumbles and walks. Therefore the king did not stop him. After a moment of silence, King Ying Ning turned around and looked at Ruoxin deeply, "That's his own choice, it's not anyone's fault." Now that he thinks about it, he may have prepared for the worst. ”
Ruoxin shook her head, and the tears that came out of her eyes fell straight down, smashing on the ground, staining a circle of dark marks. She bit her lower lip vigorously and said in a choked voice, "His choice should not have ended up dying for me." He really shouldn't have died in vain. ”
Fenghua helped Ruoxin and said softly: "Ruo'er, people can't be resurrected after death, don't blame yourself like this." ”
Dead?
Ruoxin's mind suddenly flashed a person, Ruoxin raised her head, turned around and grabbed Fenghua tightly, "Fenghua, maybe there is another person who can have a way, I will go to her immediately." ”
......
Holding Ruoxin's post inviting Bai Ruoyin in his hand, Huang Fuxian chuckled lightly and shook his head, "This child, sometimes I really don't understand why she insists so much. But the more I look at her like this, the more I want to see how far she can persevere. ”
Bai Ruoyin walked to the front of the Huangfu Xian Throne, stared at him with calm eyebrows, and said calmly: "Zhongyang, she is your apprentice, why do you force her into such a situation. ”
"Forced?" Huang Fuxian raised his eyebrows, as if listening to a joke, "I'm just showing her a way to survive." ”
There was almost no trace of anger on his quiet face, and Bai Ruoyin stared straight into Huang Fuxian's eyes and said, "But do you want her to slowly lose the most important thing around her?" ”
"Are you angry?" Huang Fuxian threw down the name sticker in his hand, raised his head to Bai Ruo's beautiful eyes that were even more agile because of anger, and chuckled: "It's really rare to see you angry about things other than the Bu clan." ”
Bai Ruoyin closed her eyes, opened them again, and returned to her former calm, she stared at Huangfu Xian for a long time, and then asked, "I always wanted to ask you, if Bai Ruoxin hadn't separated from me at the beginning, would you treat me like this?" ”
Huangfu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, he slowly got up from the seat and walked to Bai Ruoyin's side. Raising his hand to gently caress Bai Ruoyin's cheek, Huang Fuxian chuckled softly: "Ayin, you think too much, you know that I can't do that to you." Now, it's just a matter of using the smallest losses to win the biggest game. ”
Leaning down and gently dropping a kiss on Bai Ruoyin's lips, Huang Fuxian summoned Shouhou's rejuvenation outside the study and asked, "Is Shang Si still living in Pingxiang's house?" ”
"Yes."
"Then send someone to arrange for him to enter the palace tomorrow."
"Yes, sir." Rejuvenation respectfully answered and took the order.
Huang Fuxian then turned to Bai Ruoyin and said with a faint smile: "Ayin, you know what to do, right?" ”
Bai Ruoyin didn't answer immediately, and was silent for a long time before he said, "Zhongyang, I just want to remind you that no one can control everything forever. Bai Ruoyin looked at him and smiled faintly, with a shallow self-deprecation in his smile, "I will help you, but I hope you don't regret it in the end." ”
After finishing speaking, Bai Ruoyin opened the door and turned to leave, leaving only a cold back as white as frost and snow.
Huangfu Xian watched Bai Ruoyin leave, his slender handsome eyes drooped, and a light of mockery appeared in his half-squinted gaze, and he chuckled, "Regret? From the moment I became Huangfu Xian with the memory of Ying Zhongyang, I never mentioned regrets...... Ruo'er, I look forward to seeing you again tomorrow. ”
