Chapter 239: Fellow Paths
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, she did say it casually, she didn't expect Fourteen to take this issue so seriously. But when she came back to her senses, she quickly laughed again, "Okay, from tonight onwards, Fourteen will be living like me!" ”
Wei Shishi locked his eyebrows and looked at Bai Ling, who bent over with a smile, "It's not funny." ”
"I'm happy, because seeing Fourteen as difficult as me shows that Fourteen treats me as a friend, not a simple task object." Bai Ling rubbed her eyes, half because she laughed, half because she was sleepy, she sighed, and the words she wanted to say a few days ago finally came out, "You have also seen my life, except for Bai Yi, there is indeed no one who can speak." It's so nice to have had the pleasure of meeting you, really. ”
Wei Shixi held the sword in one hand, he glanced at Bai Ling beside him, and snorted.
Bai Ling smiled, "Now I'm waiting for me to be a few years older, and I can come and cook wine with you Qingmei when I have time." ”
"If you're a few years older, I won't take you with me when I drink." Wei Shiv clasped his hands and whispered.
"Why?" Bai Ling was a little surprised, but quickly understood, "Because I'm a woman?" ”
Wei Shishi looked at the road ahead and did not answer, but suddenly remembered in his mind the way Wei Ying pulled him to teach him life experience every time he was drunk.
At that time, there was no tower in the palace that could not be noticed by others, so he took the materials and brought himself, and the master and apprentice took advantage of the night to find a secluded place outside the palace to make a fire and cook wine, Wei Ying did not let the young fourteen drink, and generally threw him a water bladder and a bag of peanuts, and asked him to talk with him.
Although Wei Ying is addicted to alcohol, he is drunk when he gets drunk, and when he takes a sip of white wine, his face is drunk, and he guesses that his drunkenness is pretended, and he has never denied that this wine may have been an excuse used by Wei Ying to isolate the outside world, and it doesn't matter how much or how little is there.
Wei Shishi still remembers that in the melting firelight, Wei Ying often sighed, "Women are the biggest trouble in the world." ”
At one point, Wei Shishi couldn't hold back, and asked rhetorically, "Master, you don't have a woman, how do you know that women are in trouble." ”
Wei Ying glanced at him at the time, and then there were some difficult words, what "lovesickness is useless", what "can't be said", but in the end, it always has to go back to the basic point of "you still don't understand, you will understand when you grow up".
"Fourteen?" Bai Ling asked again, "What are you thinking?" ”
"Remembering some interesting old days." Wei Shishi came back to his senses from his memories, he looked at Bai Ling, and said in the tone of Wei Ying back then, "You still don't understand, but you will understand when you grow up." ”
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, and it took a long time to be a little funny, "What kind of big-tailed wolf are you suddenly pretending, pretending not to be." ”
On the side, Wei Shishi laughed, he rarely made such a hearty laugh. But how to say it, Wei Ying's intelligence, cunning, unrestrainedness, and his fearsome ferocious combat power seem to be really suitable to describe as a big-tailed wolf.
Now Wei Shishi has heard about the matter of "women's troubles" in the palace, and he has understood a little more than he did back then, but he really doesn't know what kind of mentality Wei Ying said back then.
The two of them walked towards the Chengqian Palace with a smile as usual, and while talking and laughing, Bai Ling heard Fourteen talk about some small things in his childhood for the first time. For example, raising flowers and cooking wine, these two hobbies almost all originated from his teacher.
In Wei XIV's narration, Bai Lingjue that his master Wei Ying is really a cynical character. Although this kind of temperament is indeed a little out of place in the court, fortunately, the dark guard is originally an existence that is free from the boundary between light and dark.
Maybe that's why Fourteen has always been able to keep his edges and corners?
Bai Ling sighed softly, when interacting with people, the interesting place is often here, she looked at Fourteen, but she also saw her own reflection in him.
The night's chat was so enjoyable that Bai Ling almost forgot about the shadow related to Lin Jieyu for a while, and only listened to Fourteen tell his past story. Bai Ling's mind seemed to light up one small light bulb after another, and the connecting light path allowed her to see how the people around her had come to this day step by step, and Fourteen had almost never been so open to talk to her about the past as he was today.
It was also tonight that Bai Ling finally understood why Fourteen, although he looked similar to the other brocade guards, always left a completely different impression on her. He is always a gentle person inside, because after all, he has been gently cared for by others and understands what the so-called "gentleness" is, so no matter how sharp the knife in his hand is, he will not slide into the abyss without noticing.
Bai Ling listened, smiled, but clearly saw that among the killing machines of Jinyiwei, Wei Shixi was still an outlier, perhaps it was this loneliness that could never truly integrate herself into the group, which made her smell a little like-minded in Fourteen.
When she returned to Chengqian Palace, Bai Ling said goodbye to Fourteen with a bit of unfinished feelings, and then pushed open the door of Chengqian Palace alone, and the door was not locked, which should have been specially reserved for her.
As soon as he entered the door, Bai Ling saw that the lights in the east side hall were still on. Usually at this time, Bao Yuan has either rested, or is on duty in the main hall of Chengqian Palace. After all, he will not be awake in the east side hall.
She went back to the house a little strangely, and when she entered the door, she saw Zheng Shu sitting inside.
Probably because she was sleepy, Zheng Shu supported her forehead with one hand, squinting her eyes and nodding constantly.
"Granny Shu?" Bai Ling approached and walked lightly in front of Zheng Shu, Zheng Shu suddenly opened her eyes, and Bai Ling continued, "Are you waiting for me?" ”
Zheng Shu didn't ease up for a while, just gently pressed the temples on both sides of her, Bai Ling handed her a cup of tea, she reached out to take it, and calmed down for a long time before she really came to her senses.
She looked at Bai Ling with a serious expression, "Where have you been tonight?" ”
"Eh, doesn't Granny Shu know?" Bai Ling was a little strange, "I said hello to my mother before I left, and after tonight's lesson, I went out to practice horses." ”
"Ridiculous!" Zheng Shu frowned and said, "When is it now, you still always run around alone?" What if something happens at this juncture, or someone else grabs you with something? What kind of temperament does the mother have, who asks her and she doesn't agree? The next time you want to go out, you'll have to come to me and say hello to me!" ”
Bai Ling didn't refute, she seemed to think about it seriously, and then said with a little apology, "Granny Shu is right, I really have to pay attention in the future." My mother-in-law is waiting for me until late tonight, is there anything important to tell me? ”。
