Chapter Eighty-Four: Out of the Palace
There was a faint candle flame lit in the room, and a little incense was in the corner of the room, which made people feel inexplicably at ease, and the black shoes of Panyun sheepskin fell silently, Yuan Qi'an saw that the person lying on the couch not far away did not move, and looked around, trying to find out where the sachet was hidden.
I searched around, but I didn't find it, slowly approached the bed, carefully reached out and opened the soft curtain, only the messy bed and futon came into view, and there was no expected figure, some resentment fell off the curtain, and the thin fabric had a trace of breaking the air: "Ning Qi!" ”
The gentle facial features condensed a solemn aura, this woman was too hateful, and when she was about to leave, there was a slight sound of footsteps at the door, and Yuan Qi'an dodged and hid in the shadow of the bed, losing her figure.
Su Bai's hand pushed open the door, Ning Qi tilted his head, keenly feeling the breath of a stranger in the room, needless to say, he also knew who it was. The cold jade bead earrings were attached to her cheeks, Ning Qi raised her hand and touched the earrings, sat in front of the bronze mirror and began to remove the few decorations, while the people in the dark never moved.
Limu yellow comb through the jet-black hair, Ning Qi smiled lightly, her eyes flowed, it seems that someone wanted to wait for herself to take out the sachet, the movement in her hand slowed down by half a minute, and it was a long time to take care of her hair, Yuan Qi'an couldn't help it, and wanted to question directly in person, but she saw her pick up a jade pendant, play with it patiently, and take back the foot that stepped out.
The mutton fat white jade was smoothly carved into the shape of a flower, the petals were as new, and the candle in front of the bronze mirror was half a minute shorter, so Ning Qi put the jade pendant back and sat at the table to taste tea.
Yuan Qi'an, who had been waiting for a long time, saw this scene, and didn't know how she didn't know that she was just playing with herself just now, so she no longer hid, stepped in front of her, and looked at him with a little flirtation, Ning Qi was unmoved, and kicked the stool next to her: "The Nine Emperors have worked hard to keep vigil, sit down." ”
Yuan Qi'an sat down with a dark face, and sure enough, the woman was playing tricks on herself: "What is your purpose?" ”
"Purpose?" Ning Qi glanced at him playfully: "If you want to talk about the purpose, you should ask the Nine Emperor Princes what your purpose is." Seeing that his face sank a little, Ning Qi was even more sure of what he was thinking.
"Oh, that's a good idea." But in the blink of an eye, Yuan Qi'an was wearing a cynical disguise, and her fingertips hooked a touch of her hair, playing with it carefully.
Accustomed to his frivolous appearance, Ning Qi indifferently withdrew his hair: "Although the Nine Emperor Princes are just an idle prince, in the eyes of outsiders, they linger in the land of fireworks, they only know how to be happy and happy, and their private money and power should not be underestimated, maybe I should call you the richest man in the capital." As for the rest, I don't need to say it, you know in your heart that the current situation is complicated, and if you take one wrong step, you will lose everything, so you have been holding your ground, in fact, your ultimate goal is just the position of the Ninety-Five. Seeing that his face became more and more unhappy, Ning Qi's smile became more and more bright: "These words are just my speculation, don't worry about the Nine Emperor Princes." ”
"You are unexpected, but if I have the ability you say, I don't have to, the county lord should not speculate." Yuan Qi'an swept her cheeks, and made up her mind to stay away from her, this woman was too dangerous.
"It's normal for His Highness Nine to have scruples in his heart, but His Highness Nine sent someone to follow me, and he wants to know my identity, so it's better for me to help you." Ning Qi clenched the collar on her chest, the night breeze blowing, and her hair fluttered lightly.
Ning Qi said indifferently, Yuan Qi's peace of mind was more jealous, this woman couldn't allow herself to suffer half a loss, the prince was now eyeing from the side, one wrong move, the whole army was wiped out, and the narrow Danfeng eyes were a little more probing: "The county lord said casually, I don't know what happened to the prince?" ”
"You don't believe me."
"How can I trust you?"
After a long silence, neither of them spoke again, they were both smart people, it was useless to say more, Ning Qi poured a cup of tea and handed it to him: "The Nine Emperor Princes are not going to come again." ”
The tea entered his throat, the white porcelain cup was empty, Yuan Qi'an did not agree or refuse, and a few dodged and left Luoxi Courtyard.
The night was dark, Ning Qi couldn't sleep steadily, today's words came out, but his attitude was ambiguous, compared to the prince, he was more dangerous, but the chance of success was also greater, the prince was far less ruthless than him, sighed, pulled the quilt, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
There is also Yuan Qi'an who has not slept in the night, Ning Qi's words have been churning in his heart, with her help, his life will be easier, but such a woman is completely unpredictable, and the person who can't control it is still eliminated from his team.
"The county lord? Princess? The sun was shining three poles, Ning Qi still didn't get up, Cui Yan was waiting outside in a hurry, calling her by the bedside.
When he opened his eyes in a daze, he saw an enlarged face in front of him, Ning Qi subconsciously pressed the person on the bed, and before Cui Yan let out an exclamation, he was let go: "What's the matter, early in the morning." Ning Qi was a little dissatisfied, last night the heavens and men fought, and they were really sleepy.
"The county lord, it's already three poles in the day." Cui Yan carried her out of bed, a little helpless: "You didn't eat anything last night, and if you don't get up, the slaves and maids are afraid that you will be hungry and thin." ”
Let a pair of hands go around his hair: "You have such a good heart? I slept until the night that day, and I didn't see you come and call me. Glancing at her playfully, Ning Qi glanced at the hair accessories on the table, which were a little more than before: "Say, what is the matter?" ”
Cui Yan inserted a golden tassel hairpin into Ning Qi's bun obliquely, and wanted to decorate it with a small hairpin with fine gold flowers: "County Lord, the prince is here." ”
Seeing a sparkling gold ornament, Ning Qi moved to remove the floral hairpin, wiped a white jade liuyun hairpin for a tassel hairpin, picked a pair of blue jade earrings, and wore a few little emerald daisies: "Come and come, wear such a fancy dress." After looking at the makeup, there was no mistake, so I changed into a tunic and went to the living room.
"But, county lord, that's the prince, the second lady was dressed like that last time, ...... like that" Cui Yan was a little aggrieved.
"Which one? No matter how she is, she is also the second lady, she can't tolerate her beak, Cuiyan, although this is the Pingnan Palace, there are many dangers, you are the person next to me, the only person, you must not be so reckless. Ning Qi listened at the corner of the corridor, across the flower pond, it was Ning Si who was walking around, Ning Qi didn't have the heart to collide with her, doing false and wrongful things, what kind of energy did she have, it was better to keep it to deal with Yuan Qi'an.
"Yes, County Lord." Cui Yan was silent for a long time before she realized the deep meaning, and her stomach digested it for a long time before she replied.
Seeing Ning Si and his party leaving, Ning Qi set off again.
