Chapter 190: The Covenant of Youth
She once thought that Lin Jieyu was Shi Chong, and she would not compromise the means to achieve her goal, so she asked her to touch the steel plate, knowing that she was a stone that was not hot, and she would probably be able to get out.
However, what happened today made Bai Ling suddenly realize that Lin Jieyu's evil may sometimes have no purpose at all, just like the king of the Xuan Dynasty took pleasure in watching the torture of cannon branding, and came to Junchen to recruit the party to write the Luo Weaving Sutra. She threw a string of gold ornaments on the water pavilion, attracting poor people like Xiaoman to bite the bait with their lives, and it was just a kind of fun.
And when the three of them are suspended in mid-air, they order someone to drop the rope, which is even more interesting.
The situation where she ordered the palace maid to give her gifts came to Bai Ling's mind again, like this situation put people in a dilemma, gave people hope, and then pushed people into despair...... It's probably not the first time she's done something like this.
A good hand at playing with people's hearts, he loves to listen to the cries of desperate people.
This kind of indiscriminate evil is extremely lethal, but it is the most unguardable.
……
The people were scattered.
Yuan Zhen glanced at the blood stains on Bai Ling's white dress, retracted his gaze, and walked towards the exit of the Yinfeng Garden not far away.
At the moment of rubbing shoulders with this sad Bai Ling, Yuan Zhen himself didn't have a reason, and suddenly dropped a sentence coldly, "...... That's the place in the palace.
This was said very lightly, and only the Bai family brothers and sisters and Ah Li heard it.
After he left, Ah Li spat viciously at his back.
"Boling." Bai Yi patted her shoulder lightly, "You go back first, Ah Li and I will deal with Xiaoman's funeral." ”
Bai Ling shook his head.
Bai Yi frowned, "Fourteen is still waiting for you over there, go back and ask my father to check if there is a wound for him, the water here is dirty, be careful of infection." ”
Hearing Fourteen's name, Bai Ling raised his head as if he had just woken up from a dream.
Bai Yi picked up Xiao Man from Bai Ling's arms, and Xiao Man leaned quietly on his chest, his expression still painful, as if he had fallen asleep with a nightmare.
Bai Ling untied the money bag around his waist and put it on Xiao Man's body, and then picked up Jin Buyao, who had been slightly deformed by a slight fall on the ground, and put it into his sleeve.
“…… Let's go. She said to Bai Yi, "After you finish cooking over there, bring Ah Li back with you." ”
On the hillside not far away, the prince and his entourage quietly looked at the distant figures of the Bai family brothers and sisters.
"Aren't we going up up and saying hello to her?" Zeng Jiuyan asked.
Shizi shook his head again and again, "I still don't want it now, how can she be in the mood to greet people like this...... I'll talk about that later. ”
Zhang Jingzhen looked at the last figure of the dead boy, and her eyes couldn't bear it, "What is the origin of this Lin Jieyu, she has been arrogant like this after only a few years in the palace?" I'll tell my dad when I go back tonight, and I'll take this Jieyu a copy hard! ”
"Don't be impulsive." Shizi interrupted.
"Why?" Zhang Jingzhen was speechless, "Are you afraid of her too?" ”
Shizi glanced at Zhang Jingzhen, "Didn't you notice that the more the officials in the court beat and suppressed, the more the emperor praised and bragged." ”
A few people were slightly stunned, as if it was true.
Qu Guifei entered the palace for eleven years without children, and was praised by the emperor as a concubine
Lin Jieyu, a fox and charming enchantress from the District Education Division, was raised as Jieyu and entered Chuxiu Palace
Not to mention that Zhang Shenxian of the Immortal Spirit Garden, now he is about to become a tyrant in Beijing......
Shizi continued, "The matter here will definitely spread tonight, and in a few days, there will be more people who will participate in Lin Jieyu's performance, and there will be no shortage of Master Zhang." ”
"Yes." Li Fengyu looked at Zhang Jingzhen with some concern, "Your family is also close to the Hu family on weekdays, don't make trouble at this juncture." ”
Zhang Jingzhen tightened her eyebrows and stopped talking.
"If the family asks about tonight's events after we go back, we will answer them truthfully," Shizi added, "and if we don't ask, we don't need to say anything." ”
"If you asked, did you also say about shooting dragons with arrows?"
"Say," Shizi looked at Bai Ling's distant back and replied softly, "What am I afraid of." ”
It was late at night, and several teenagers said goodbye to each other and ran to the places where the carriages were, and in the end, only Zeng Jiuyan and Shizi were left.
"Alright, that's it," Shizi said, turning around, "your carriage is over there." ”
Zeng Jiuyan took a breath and looked at Shizi deeply, "Yi Cong, there is no one else here, I said something rebellious." ”
Shizi looked at his companion and waited for his next step.
"If you are the king in the future, I will be the minister," Zeng Jiuyan said in a low voice, "...... You don't want to be such an emperor. ”
……
"Fourteen, I ask you a question, and you have to answer me truthfully."
On the way back, Bai Ling and Wei 14 walked side by side, although Wei 14 had changed his clothes in the Yinfeng Garden, his hair was still wet, and the dripping water had soaked the clothes on his shoulders and neck again.
"Hmm." He whispered.
"What I asked you to do in the past, did you do it like you do today, with the will to die?" Bai Ling asked.
Wei Fourteen glanced at Bai Ling.
"Tonight was an accident." Wei Shishi still had his usual cold expression, "It was originally very easy to solve." ”
If it weren't for the fact that he was about to draw his sword, he was suddenly told that he could not hurt the holy object
If it weren't for the sudden release of the rope on the water pavilion
If it weren't for the girl at the end chasing the hairpin...... None of this is the way it is now.
"I'm not asking tonight," Bai Ling looked up at him, "I'm asking, do you do everything I ask you to do?" ”
Wei XIV did not answer.
Bai Ling lowered his head and took out the one from his sleeve, "...... I've been thinking about something that scares me a lot. ”
The swaying gold tassels on the footsteps made a slight crashing sound in the silent streets.
"If you die in that Jiaolong Pool tonight in order to save Xiaoman," Bai Ling's voice became lower and lower, "I don't know ......"
Bai Ling squeezed the step shaker in his hand.
Wei Fourteen also stopped.
"You don't have to think about that." He answered softly, "I don't think about that either." The more I think about it, the more dull the sword becomes. If the sword is blunt, you can't do what you could do, and those who can keep it can't keep it, let alone protect yourself. ”
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, lowered his eyes and asked, "...... This is the rule of your secret guards? ”
"Yes." Wei Shishi looked at the dark and empty street market in front of him, "It's also my personal experience." ”
The two of them had come to the deep alley where Bai's house was located in a blink of an eye, because there was still a wave of fireworks when they saw Anhu Lake, so many people still did not come back at this time.
The courtyard door of the Bai family was not locked, Bai Ling pushed the door in, and shouted softly, "Dad, I'm back." ”
There was a panicked clanging sound in the backyard, and Bai Shijun's voice also came, "Bai Ling is back?" ”
Bai Ling walked in in response, and saw a couple holding a child sitting in the courtyard.
The couple looked a little haggard and did not look like a wealthy family, and a child of eleven or twelve years old was sitting between them, leaning on the woman's shoulder, but his expression was not restless.
"Hey, is Doctor Bai's daughter back?"
The man hurriedly stood up with some restraint, and then saw the pale dark guard behind Bai Ling.
If you look closely, Bai Ling is also covered in blood.
The man's movements suddenly stiffened......
