Eighteen, a tree is ruthless (II)
Lan Qi didn't get angry when he heard this, but sighed: "Alas, Ben Shao is suddenly reluctant to let you die. As he spoke, his gaze turned to Shang Pinghan.
Shang Pinghan's face was cold, and he looked at Lan Qi's gaze and told him very clearly: Even if you Lan Qishao pleaded, I would never let this person go, girl!
Lan Qi smiled, a trace of ridicule bloomed in his blue eyes, and then his hand slowly raised, the light in his eyes flashed, Shang was vigilant, the sword in his hand was raised, and at the same time he quickly retreated, but before he could take a step back, his neck was cold, his arm was numb, and the sword fell to the ground.
"You!" Shang Pinghan was angry and hateful, but there was a cold white jade fan attached to his neck, like a sword across his neck, and the cold killing intent soaked into his skin.
"Your life is in the hands of Ben Shao at this moment, if Ben Shao doesn't kill you, it is equivalent to giving you the grace of life, Ben Shao doesn't want you to repay the favor, just exchange your life for the life of the Meigong Palace, from today on, all the grievances between you and the Meigong Lord will be written off." Lan Qi looked at Shang Pinghan and said with a smile.
"You!" Shang was so cold that he couldn't speak, he could only stare at that evil face, and he couldn't wait to stare out of the two holes.
"You remember what Ben Shao said, and Ben Shao said nothing." Lan Qi was still smiling and groaning, but for no reason, Shang Pinghan felt a kind of coldness and ruthlessness from her words, as if she would be bloodied on the spot as long as she made a slight movement, and she didn't dare to move for a while.
Lan Qi took back the jade fan, and looked chic again, with blue eyes and tenderness, "Miss Shang, since it's rare to see each other, why don't you go and have a glass of wine together?" Speaking of which, Yingshan Shangben has a very good impression of the girl, but he has never had the opportunity to be affectionate, which is a pity. ”
If another person spoke like this, Shang Pinghan would either draw his sword and cut off someone's tongue or freeze off a layer of skin from other people's eyes, but when he faced Lan Qishao, his face turned red for no reason. It's not that she moved her heart and had affection, it's just that such a person with a divine grace like jade, such a pair of affectionate blue eyes, if you don't react at all, then it is estimated that you are not human. Since there was no way to take revenge, Shang Pinghan picked up the sword on the ground, glared at Lan Qi with a red face, and then glanced at Mei Rudai coldly, turned around and left.
Seeing Shang Pinghan's back disappear, Lan Qi shook his head regretfully, "This beauty is a little cold, but her mind is really simple, it's really a bit like ......" The corner of his eyes glanced at him, and in an instant, the jade fan was another fan, "Why is the Lord of the Eyebrow Palace so ruthless?" How can you say that Ben Shao also saved your life just now, why didn't you thank you at all? ”
Evading was blocked, Mei Rudai turned around with a dead heart, looked at Lan Qi, his eyes flashed, and he said in a flattering voice: "There is a way to be a great grace without thanks, Qi Shaoyu concubine has the grace to save her life, and the concubine has nothing to repay, so it is better to use her body as permission?" ”
Such a look with this voice is really a bit miserable, but Lan Qi looked at it carefully and seriously, as if he was looking at a stunning beauty, the more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes became, and finally the jade fan closed and smiled: "Not bad, not bad." The Mei Palace Lord is such a beautiful woman who is willing to stoop to Ben Shao, which is really the blessing of Ben Shao's previous life, since the palace master has this good intention, how can Ben Shao live up to it. Okay, Ben Shao will marry you, huh...... Let Ben Shao think about how many you are, huh...... One, two, three...... Seven, eight, nine...... Oh, you're seventeenth. Mei Palace Master, from today onwards, you will be the seventeenth lady of Ben Shao. ”
After Lan Qi finished speaking, the eyebrows on the other side were already demented, Rao is that she has been through the ups and downs of the rivers and lakes for a long time, but she has not experienced such strange things as today, at this time, and in front of her.
"What's wrong? The palace master doesn't seem to be very happy with this reaction? Could it be that the palace master has repented? That's not possible, Ben Shao said nothing, since he wants to marry you, you are Ben Shao's person. Lan Qi said as he took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, scratched it with his fingertips, and then stuffed it into the hand of Mei Rudai, who was still stunned, "This is a token, the palace master has to collect and remember it." ”
Mei Rudai looked at the piece of jasper in his hand blankly, the jade quality is excellent, it is the top grade, but this is not unusual, what is strange is the word "seventeen" engraved on it. Looking up, staring at the person in front of him with wide eyes and shock, is he serious?
If it was before, she was still the palace master, and her martial arts were still withering, then today's things would not be very unusual, but now she ...... You don't need to look in the mirror, just look at the way others look at her, you can know how old, ugly and dirty she is at the moment! But this man called her a beautiful woman, but said that he wanted to marry her, and ...... If you look at the appearance, you will know that it is not a fake, this person ...... Is he crazy or is he crazy?
"Madame, since it has become a good deed, it is time to drink and celebrate." Lan Qiyu waved her fan and smiled like spring water, "It's better to find a place to have a drink with Ben Shao." After that, he turned around and walked forward, without looking back, without stopping, as if he knew that Mei Rudai would follow, and it seemed that it didn't matter if she followed or not.
Mei Rudai looked at the figure in front of her, and followed in a daze.
Far away on the street, there were three people watching this scene and watching the two walk away.
Ning Lang just watched quietly.
Yu Wenluo's eyes were thoughtful.
Yu Wenfeng snorted coldly and said, "Even if you do a good deed, you have to do such an evil deed, and you wonder if others want to call it 'Blue Demon'!" ”
Lan Qi led Mei Rudai around two streets, and then came to a house, he raised his hand and knocked on the door, and after a while, an old man of about fifty years a year came to open the door, and when he saw Lan Qi, he bowed deeply.
Lan Qi walked inside, and his eyebrows were like Dai following him, only to find that the inside was extremely deep and wide, with a red column and a jade step, which showed wealth and wealth.
"Wait for the seventeenth lady to freshen up and eat, and ask Lan Han to come to see me." Lan Qi instructed the old man who followed closely behind.
"Yes, please go to Cuiliang Pavilion to rest for a while." The old man replied respectfully.
"Hmm." Lan Qi nodded, turned his head to look at Mei Rudai and said, "Madame will go to freshen up first, and Ben Shao will go back and taste the wine with Madame." ”
Mei Rudai just nodded.
Lan Qi turned around and turned to the right, and after a while, his figure disappeared into the layers of courtyards.
"Lady Seventeen, please come with the little one." The old man said to Mei Rudai, his attitude was extremely respectful.
Mei Rudai went with him.
There is a small courtyard in the depths of the portal, and the wall will see the green bamboo in the courtyard, the phoenix tail groans, the Zhu Lou is picturesque, and the wooden bell is in the ear.
Pushing open the door of the small courtyard, a fresh breath rushed in front of him, and Lan Qi couldn't help but smile, "There is no change here." ”
A light footstep came, and then a figure came quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was in front of you.
"Lan Han has seen Qishao." Someone came to bow deeply. He is about thirty years old, his eyebrows and eyes are flat, and his expression is warm.
"Hmm." Lan Qi replied lightly, and then walked into the small courtyard.
Lan Han followed.
There is a bamboo couch under the shade of the bamboo, and Lan Qiyang flicked his fan and sat down on the couch. "What did you find out about the three thousand heroes who died in Dongminghai?"
"The subordinates are incompetent." Lan Han lowered his head, "Since I learned this news, my subordinates have made all inquiries and have found nothing. ”
"Oh?" Lan Qi responded, looking without shock or anger, and muttered for a long time before saying, "You can't blame you for this matter, Ben Shao has his own foundation in his heart." You inform Yingzhou Lan Xuan that Ben Shao is going to Dongming Island and ask him to prepare everything. ”
"Seven less!" Lan Han raised his head, his expression revealing a hint of anxiety, "There are already three thousand people whose lives and deaths are unknown, which is enough to know that the crisis lurks in the Dongming Sea, and the seven young must not take risks!" ”
"Oh?" Lan Qi's eyebrows moved, and he raised his eyes to look at him.
Lan Han's heart jumped, he knew that he was speechless, and lowered his head and said: "My subordinates are just ......"
"Huh...... Ben doesn't know what you're going to say. Lan Qi raised his eyebrows and smiled, sharp as a sword, "It's just ......" his tone suddenly changed again, "Ben Shao knows it very well in his heart, don't worry." ”
"Seven young you......" Lan Han looked up at Lan Qi, at that moment, he saw the flash of light in his blue eyes, and he couldn't help but feel a thrill all over his body, and all the words were swallowed back into his stomach.
"Dongming Island is imperative, you can write it down in your heart." Lan Qi looked at him with a smile.
"Yes." Lan Han hung his head.
There was another sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and several servants and maids rushed in, put up coffee tables, tables and chairs under the shade of bamboo, and brought water to serve Lan Qijing with his face and hands, and then served tea and snacks before quietly retreating.
Lan Qi picked up the teacup, sniffed it closely, and said, "Old Xie has already told you about the Seventeenth Lady?" ”
"My subordinates have seen it." Lan Han replied.
"Hmm." Lan Qi took a sip of tea, and then said unhurriedly, "You go back and pick a few people to accompany Mrs. Seventeen back to her mother's house." ”
Maiden? Lan Han was stunned.
"Baiyan Palace." Lan Qi put down the cup and raised his eyes to look at him, "Got it?" ”
Lan Han was stunned and sober in an instant, "The subordinates know, Qi Shao, but please rest assured." ”
"That's good, you go down and prepare." Lan Qi waved his hand.
"Yes, the subordinates retired." Lan Han stepped back.
The small courtyard was quiet, except for the gentle sound of the wind blowing the bamboo branches.
Lan Qi shook the jade fan for a while, his blue eyes looked at a certain place quietly, and there was a faint smile on his face all the time, as if he was watching the beautiful scenery and seemed to be pondering. After a long time, suddenly raised his head and looked leisurely at the green bamboo above his head, thousands of sharp leaves were reflected in the blue eyes, the green and secluded like the deepest pool, the brilliant like the sharpest sword, the beauty was like a demon, and the view was terrifying.
"I dare to rob what I don't like...... The rivers and lakes are about to bow down to Ben Shao's feet, and they silently made the three thousand masters disappear......" muttered, and his blue eyes slowly closed.
The shade of the bamboo was terrifyingly quiet for a moment, and even the wind didn't dare to sweep lightly, and then a trace of imperceptible whispers quietly overflowed, "Isn't this equivalent to a slap in the face...... Ben Shao should pay back a hundred times with his own hands! ”
The jade fan slid down slightly, revealing lips as red as fire, and a smile that was even colder than the Extreme Ice Abyss.
Mei Rudai freshened up, and after a meal, someone came to invite, saying that the seventh young lady invited the seventeenth lady to Cuiliang Pavilion to taste wine.
The maidservant led her through the courtyard to a small courtyard, where she stepped back and went in by herself.
When she walked into the courtyard, she thought she was walking into the painting.
There is a bush of white chrysanthemum in the small courtyard, next to the chrysanthemum is a delicate vermilion building, next to the building is a Lingyun green bamboo, in the small side of the autumn world, but white, red, green three colors, but embellished with the bright and beautiful color of spring. The green bamboo densely covers the sun, there is a bamboo couch horizontally under the cool bamboo shade, there is a person lying on the couch, there is a small table next to the couch, a few cucumber red fruit jade saucers dim sum tea and wine cups, everything is so quiet and leisurely, such as an elegant environment.
But when the gaze touches the person lying on the couch, this elegant environment gives birth to an indescribable temptation.
The purple clothes were slightly messy, the hair crown fell diagonally to the side, and the long ink-colored hair was scattered, lined with a snow-white face with incomparably beautiful facial features everywhere, which was shocking. It should be the glamorous soul that came out of the Zhu Building, beautiful and weird, it should be the demon spirit born in the green bamboo, cold but evil, irrepressible eyes, but did not dare to take a step closer, obsessed and more afraid.
Mei Rudai stood a foot away and looked at the person quietly.
When those eyes opened, they revealed a pair of unique blue eyes, the sharpness of those eyes, the sky gathered light for them, and the grace of looking forward to them was overshadowed.
At that moment...... She heard her heart speak.
Whether it is a human or a demon, whether it is a man or a woman, from this moment on, she ...... Surrender to the man.
"Madame is here." Lan Qi got up slowly, casually but with a charm that penetrated into the bones.
The ink silk flows, dyed in purple clothes, ink and purple, rich and noble, mysterious and solemn.
But when a pair of cold and stunning blue eyes bloomed in the inky black and deep purple, a trace of demonic energy was born in the noble and solemn.
At this moment, the beauty of this person's complexion, the demon of this person's bones, and the elegance and bearing of this person...... It's all publicized to the extreme!
No matter whether this person is male or female, at this moment, no one in this world can not be bewitched by it!
Mei Rudai gently moved over, took off the comb from her head, and naturally combed her hair and tied her crown.
When everything was done, she knelt down at his feet, lowered her head, and said calmly and solemnly: "Lauder will meet Qishao, from now on, but there is an order, and she will not give up." ”
Lan Qi stared at her, and smiled lightly after a moment, "Madame has gone through this ordeal, and she is even more intelligent, and she has not disappointed Ben Shao." ”
She is not stupid, she used to be the leader of the underworld, and she once shed blood, plotted and killed people for the place of the lord of that palace. Whether Lan Qi saved her by accident or out of the blue, it didn't matter. From the moment she took the jade pendant engraved with the word "seventeen", Mei Rudai's life has ended, and since he called her "madam", he should have a plan in his heart.
But so what? She also gets what she wants.
She raised her head, her eyes clear, "Lauder thanks the seven young ones for their regeneration grace." ”
"Lauder?" Lan Qi read the name softly, "'Mei Rudai' feels charming when you hear it, but 'Lauder' has a sense of dark fragrance lurking, which is good." ”
"'Mei Ru Dai' is the name that the master chose when he picked me up when he saw that my eyebrows were born well, and 'Lauder' is the name I chose for myself at the moment."
"Oh?" Lan Qi raised her eyebrows and looked at her, although her complexion was withered, her two eyebrows were like the rising moon of the new moon, long and crooked, and she couldn't help but praise, "It's really good-looking." That being the case, it's not bad to be called 'Lauder', get up. ”
"Xie Qishao." Lauder got up.
"Ben Shao said that you are the seventeenth lady, then the Lan family will respect you as your wife." Lan Qiyi flicked his sleeves and stood up, pacing in the small courtyard, turning his head sideways, and looking at her leisurely, "Do you understand your identity?" ”
Lauder looked up in amazement. She thought that he was just going to use her, and she planned to repay him as much as she could, but ...... Is that kind of joke true? Did you really give her an identity? A rightful identity? Is she such an old and ugly person?
Lan Qi smiled slightly, but the cloud was light and clear, but it was a real smile, "No matter what you do, no matter where you are, whether you are alive or dead, from the moment Ben Shao gave you the jade pendant, you are the seventeenth lady of the Lan family, and the name, status, money and respect you should have, there is no less." Ben doesn't say much. ”
Lauder was really stunned.
Lan Qi looked at her with a smile.
Two lines of tears welled up in Lauder's eyes, and then she knelt down deeply on the ground again and choked up, "Lauder...... In this life, there will be no less than seven! "Even when Ronghua was the most prosperous in the past, when she was the master of Baiyan Palace, and her status in the rivers and lakes was the most forgiving, no one had ever given her such respect. But when he lost everything at this moment, he got a whole copy. At this moment, she was asked to jump into the sea of fire and step into the knife mountain, and she was happy to go!
"If you don't live up to your money, that book will never fail you." Lan Qi stretched out his hand to help her up, raised his sleeve to wipe away the tears on her face, and said with a smile, "Madame's eyebrows are born so well, although Ben Shao has lost the fun of thrushes, fortunately, there is still this beautiful thing of wiping fragrant tears with her sleeves." ”
"Poof!" Lauder couldn't help but burst into laughter, and in an instant, the withered color suddenly came alive, her eyebrows were curved like the moon, her eyes were full of tears, and she was happy and moist, faintly oozing that charming and coquettish.
Lan Qi couldn't help but sigh when he saw it, "Madame is worthy of being the master of Baiyan Palace, and she is also moved by a smile." ”
Lauder smiled softly, her eyebrows and eyes were stretched, and her expression was calm, as if she was ten years younger. She raised her hand to touch her face, and opened her mouth flatly, but her voice was already coquettish, "The concubine has passed away, her complexion has withered, and today she can get seven less than this, and then she regards the king as her husband as the lord and the sky in her heart." Although he is cheeky, he will not insult this for life. ”
"Okay." Lan Qi walked to the front, poured two glasses of wine with the pot, and handed one to Lauder, "This glass of wine is the wedding wine of Ben Shao and his wife." ”
Lauder took it, the two clinked glasses, and then drank it down.
"Ben Shao has asked Lan Han to choose a few people to accompany his wife back to Baiyan Palace." Lan Qi put down his cup and said.
"Yes." Lauder replied.
"Leave tomorrow, Madame can go to rest first to recuperate." Lan Qi smiled faintly, and looked at Lauder with deep meaning, "If there is anything you can discuss with Lan Han directly." ”
"The concubine understands." Lauder bent down and saluted, "The concubine will retire first." ”
"Hmm." Lan Qi nodded, watching Lauder leave, with a satisfied smile.
In this world, power, money, and status are really the most important, and everyone is tempted!
Pour another glass of wine and drink it all with a smile.
What kind of scene will there be in the Dongming Sea?
It's worth looking forward to having that person with you.
"Mingxiangfang" is very famous in Yecheng, the tea here is the most complete and best, all those who understand tea in Yecheng like to drink tea, eighty percent are here, so the business in the workshop is excellent, and the guests come and go every day.
When the young man in a green shirt stepped into the teahouse, the guys in the workshop couldn't help but be stunned.
Most of the people who come in and out of the workshop are some people with net worth in this Ye City, so they all have a certain bearing, which is not comparable to those poor people at the bottom, but it is the first time to see such a Tsinghua elegant character in front of him, that is, the fourth son of the Lu family who is often in the fang and is secretly admired by the ladies and ladies in Ye City. The fragrance of tea in the workshop surrounded the guests coming and going, and it was a little noisy and noisy, but the person just stepped in lightly, and there was a silence in his ears.
"Is this boy drinking tea or buying tea?" A fellow greeted him.
Ming Er's eyes swept the tea shop, and said gently: "I heard that your shop has 'a tree of blue and ruthless' tea, but I don't know if there is one?" ”
The guy was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly replied: "This tea is very rare, you need to ask the shopkeeper, please wait a while." ”
"I'm tired." Meiji nodded.
The guy went in to call people, and as soon as he turned his eyes, he met a lot of eyes, smiled slightly, and walked to the side to slowly look at the tea, letting the curious eyes and discussions behind him.
The guys looked at the guest, and then at the son, and thought to themselves, it is strange that such a figure is not conspicuous.
After a while, the man led the old man who was about sixty years old and looked good, and the old man looked slightly shocked when he saw Ming Er, and then approached as usual.
"Old and decrepit Taoji, is the shopkeeper of this workshop, I heard that the son wants to 'be ruthless with a tree'?" The old man saluted.
Ming Er turned around and returned the salute, "I like this tea in Xiasu, but it is difficult to find, and I smell that your shop has it, so I came." ”
Tao Ji shook his head, "This tea is very rare, and the old decay was also more than ten years ago to get half a catty, although it is very cherished to taste it, but more than ten years later, there is only a small box." There is a way to play the piano and bosom friend, since the son likes this tea so much, that is the bosom friend, although there is no tea to sell, but I am willing to ask the son for a cup of tea. ”
"That being the case, thank you shopkeeper." Ming Er was pleased.
"Childe, please come with the old man." Tao Ji led the way.
Behind the teahouse is a small courtyard, away from the bustle in front of it, which is quiet and elegant.
Tao Ji invited Ming Er into the left wing room and bowed deeply, "Tao Ji meets the second son." ”
"Uncle Tao, don't do this." Ming Er hurriedly helped him up and said with a gentle smile, "Hua Yan is Uncle Tao who grew up, how can he accept the gift of his elders, won't this hurt his nephew." ”
"The son is the master, Tao Ji is the servant, and it is natural to be courteous." Tao Ji got up with Ming Er's hand, and there was a warm smile on his face, "Is the old lady okay?" ”
"It's all good." Ming Er smiled with a spring breeze on his face.
"Childe is here, but he really plans to go to Dongming Island?" Tao Ji asked Ming Er to sit down, and he sat down at the bottom.
"Hmm." Ming Er nodded slightly, "There are three thousand heroes killed in the Dongming Sea, how can my generation not go." I'm here to ask Uncle Tao, but have you found out some news? ”
"Ugh." Tao Ji sighed softly, "Childe, you are not old and incompetent, no matter what sect or sect is in the rivers and lakes at this moment, what you can find is the ones that are circulating outside, and you can't get it anymore." ”
"Is that so?" Ming Er groaned, his eyes clouded looking somewhere, thinking.
Tao Ji didn't bother him silently, and looked at him quietly.
It's perfect everywhere and at all times. My heart sank inexplicably. When I saw it for the first time, I was only a three-year-old child, but I was more well-behaved and sensible than the thirteen-year-old child, standing quietly by my mother's side, looking at others quietly with a pair of eyes. At that time, I was frightened by the child's quiet and hidden wisdom. After so many years, it can be regarded as watching him grow up, the Ming family is a big family, with many descendants, whether it is in the eyes of the elders and descendants, whether he is three years old, four years old, five years old, ten years old...... He will always be the best. He is outstanding in reading, his martial arts cultivation is the highest, the six arts are the most refined, and he is always pleasant and pleasant to deal with people, so that what he does will always be appropriate, even his appearance and charm, which is also beyond the earthly posture of all beings.
This is a person who is perfect from every point of view.
Mortals, but there is impossible perfection, this is the most terrible, is the most terrifying!
"This kind of Dongming Island is really interesting." Ming Er interrupted Tao Ji's fugue with a chuckle.
"When the son goes to sea, what preparations do you need to make for the old decay?" Tao Ji asked.
"Are you ready...... Ming Er's eyes flashed, and he smiled, "No, that person should be able to prepare everything, you just need to prepare what I need." ”
"Okay." Tao Ji responded, and then asked, "Where does the son settle down, but do you need to be arranged?" ”
"Don't bother Uncle Laotao." Ming Er said lightly, "I'll stay in the same guest house with them, and I may go to Yingzhou tomorrow, you can notify the other side." ”
"Old decay saved." Tao Ji nodded.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door, and then two maidservants gently pushed the door in, one of them holding a lotus-shaped jasper basin, which was full of cold ice cubes, and a white jade teacup was placed in the ice.
"Childe's favorite drink of 'one tree is ruthless'." Tao Ji looked at the maid who came in and smiled.
"Uncle Tao knows this tea best." Ming Er sighed softly.
"Make tea with snow water, chill it." Tao Ji took the jade basin in the hand of a servant girl and personally held it to the second table of Ming, "This is still what the son taught the old man back then, and the son tasted it." ”
"Such a good product, how can Huayan refuse." Ming Er took the jade cup from the jade basin, uncovered the tea cover, the white jade cup was full of blue water, transparent and clear, its color was already amazing, and the cold fragrance had hit the face and refreshed the spleen, and I couldn't help but praise it, "Good tea!" ”
Tao Ji smiled comfortingly.
Ming Er used the tea lid to play with the green needle-like tea leaves, rippling blue and rippling, but it was very similar to the man's sparkling eyes. 'A tree is ruthless', those blue eyes are not only ruthless, but also unpredictable...... Suddenly, when I realized what I had in mind, my mind was stunned.
