Chapter 075: The Struggle for Status

"You think I'm going to hurt her?" Helian Ming was half surprised, and laughed helplessly, "It turns out that I haven't seen you for a few years, and I have become such a heinous bad person in your heart, it seems that I really discredited myself by saying goodbye at that time." ”

"And what is the purpose of your return? You should know that the drawing has something to do with her, right? ”

Helian Ming walked to the closed window and stretched out his hand to push it open, and the noisy sound outside suddenly filled his ears, and the white figure stood silently in the bustling hustle and bustle, like the most soul-conveying work of the painter's pen.

"I know, and I know that Jin Yu killed the people of Junzilou, but I didn't stop it, if I stopped it at this time, then it would be meaningless for me to leave in pain." Helian Mingyan's tone was a little gloomy, and his back was gloomy.

Why did she say goodbye back then, why did she do many puzzling things, and why she betrayed the people who trusted her one after another, these are the questions that Wen Moqing has been asking for many years, but he did not chase after him to ask for answers, firstly, because of his character, and secondly, he understands very well that once some things are broken, they are likely to bring more desperate and sad results.

"I won't say it a second time, Yan Liwu is now the person under my protection, I'm not dead, no one wants to touch her at all." After putting down the heavy words in a tone that was not ruthless, Wen Moqing also realized that his threat was not strong, and frowned rather dissatisfied. Seeing Helian Ming annihilated in front of the window without saying a word, the prince of Dingyuan, who had always been calm, became the first person who couldn't hold his breath, walked to the window and closed it hard to isolate the hustle and bustle, and bowed his head slightly to face Helian Ming: "It's okay for you to come back, there is a question that has bothered me for a long time, maybe you can give me a clear answer." ”

Helian Ming raised his eyebrows: "What's the problem?" ”

"You have lived in the Qinglian Palace for a long time, and you have been in close contact with the Qinglian King, I think, you should be able to tell the authenticity of the Qinglian King, right?" Wen Moqing subconsciously looked sideways at the wall separating him from Yan Liwu's room, and lowered her voice slightly, "I want you to find evidence that she is the Qinglian King, or not." ”

"You're comfortable with the answer, what's in it for me? You know, I'm a businessman, I would never trade at a loss, only profit can make me willing to do things for others. ”

Wen Moqing smiled coldly: "You set the conditions, as long as you can get the answer I want, it's not impossible to give you a copy of that picture, how about it?" ”

"Really?" Helian Ming asked rhetorically, a smile suddenly appeared on her beautiful and delicate face, clean and gentle, "That picture is secondary, what I want most is something else - I want you to stop hating me and forgive me for being bitter back then, is it okay?" Ink? ”

Even though the soft light from the window enveloped Helian Ming, even though the smiling face was as heart-pounding as in the memories of the past, Wen Moqing was still keenly aware of the grievances and sorrows hidden under it.

After she is a nobleman, the responsibility on her shoulders may be no less than his, and now after a long separation and reunion, can you still trust her?

Yan Liwu, who returned to the room, did not enjoy breakfast happily as Yin Junbai expected, the perilla cake and plum pickles in the food box were lying lonely, Yan Liwu didn't look at it, and Yin Junbai was naturally not in the mood to eat.

"The prince is angry? Is it because of the young master? Carefully looking at Yan Liwu's increasingly thin body, Yin Junbai's heart was filled with a trace of bitterness, "At that time, the prince treated Miss Helian like a sister, but she deceived the prince to assassinate the first emperor, and the prince suffered a lot of grievances and still didn't blame Miss Helian for half a sentence, and even pleaded with the first emperor for her." There is also the young master, I heard that the landlord and the prince of Dingyuan did not approve of him being with Miss Helian, and the young master had a lot of disputes with his family and friends about this, but was he still let down by Miss Helian? I really can't figure out why the young master is still willing to see her, if it were me, it would be better for this kind of woman to never see her again for the rest of her life. ”

"After all, it's someone who likes it, how can his awkward personality say forget it? The hateful thing is that he nagged about the righteousness of his family and country every day, and when he encountered something, he forgot about it, and gave up his business for a woman who didn't want him...... said that I came to Anzhou to investigate, but what have I investigated so far? Isn't that just that one broken picture? If it drags on like this, how long will it take to return to the imperial capital? At first, he was still smouldering, but he turned into a complaint, gritting his teeth as if he wanted to beat Wen Moqing.

Yin Junbai was slightly stunned, and was a little dazed: "The prince is in a bad mood, just because the young master left you and the business and went to find Miss Helian?" ”

"Or what?" This time it was the turn of the words to be puzzled.

"So that's the case, I and the young master of Bi Xiao thought it was ...... I thought the prince was ......" Yin Junbai was suddenly in a good mood, scratching his head, and smiling clumsily with a little shyness, "Although Miss Helian is beautiful, elegant and good at kung fu, but in Junbai's heart, the prince is ten million times better than her, she can't even match a finger of the prince, and no man can match the prince." ”

The topic of Yin Junbai's left and right turn made Yan Liwu more and more confused, and when he heard the word "general match", he suddenly realized, and laughed out loud: "This is what you and Bi Xiao are worried about?" It's really nonsense, maybe Wen Moqing and I have a little bit of a storm? It's a miracle that he doesn't kill me, and I'm not tired of him, not to mention that he has his sweetheart, and I also have me-" Halfway through the words, Yan Li hurriedly stopped, waved his hand and blushed slightly: "I won't tell you, the more I talk about it, the more unreliable it becomes." Anyway, you remember, I just want to hurry up and go back to the imperial capital now, where there are still people waiting for me. If Wen Moqing continues to linger with that Helian Ming and doesn't do anything serious, I'm going to go to Bi Xiao for help! ”

Yan Liwu never thought that his emotions would be misunderstood by Bi Xiao and Yin Junbai to such a point, reflecting on his little communication with others and his impatient temperament, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty, Xu In order to compensate for Yin Junbai's worries, he actually sat down at the table and began to eat those pastries and pickles, which made Yin Junbai full of joy.

Different from the leisurely and leisurely Wen Moqing, Yin Junbai had a lot of important things to do, and he had to leave after breakfast, and Helian Ming was still in the Wen Moqing room at that time.

Yan Liwu didn't want to disturb the two who had been reunited for a long time, although they had a lot of anger, they had to endure it, leaning on the bedside futon and closing their eyes to take a nap. She was also very tired in the past two days, not to mention running around in the wind and snow, and she had to worry about all kinds of things, especially Wen Moqing, after learning about his relationship with Helian Mingyan, Yan Li always felt uncomfortable in her heart. In fact, she told Yin Junbai with a calm face just now that it was not all the reason why she was angry because of Wen Moqing's private feelings for her children, and she also had another unspeakable thought.

If, according to Bi Xiao, Helian Mingyan once used the Qinglian King to approach the first emperor to assassinate, then Helian Mingyan must have an extremely complex background and vicious scheming, since Wen Moqing knows this, she still has a love for her, so that at this time, she is still willing to meet and chat with Helian Mingyan, what should she do and what status does she put in her position?

She wasn't anyone, but at least, she was his responsibility, and he was one of the very few people she trusted so far.

Too many thoughts make the rest after a sleepless night full of chaotic and broken dreams, I don't know how long it has been, Yan Liwu was woken up by the knock on the door and rubbed his eyes, and saw that the color outside the window was dark, and it was getting evening.

After opening the door, Wen Moqing, who was covered in wind and snow, couldn't see any expression on his face: "It's snowing, Mingyan's residence is far away and it's inconvenient to go back, so I'll live with you tonight." ”

"Excuse me, Miss Yan."

Helian Ming gave a small salute, elegant and decent, and his good upbringing and noble status were reflected in his gestures, and he immediately separated himself from his worries.

Yan Liwu looked at Helian Mingyan and then at Wen Moqing, his expression was strange, and he didn't wait for Wen Moqing to urge him a second time, and the corners of his pale lips slightly hooked up an inexplicable arc: "I'm used to living alone, I don't like to live with others, let her open another room." ”

"I have asked the shopkeeper just now, there are many people staying overnight in the heavy wind and snow today, and there are no vacant rooms." Holding on to the door frame and stepping forward, Helian Ming was between Yan Li's worries and warm feelings, "Miss Yan just needs to borrow me a place to sit, as soon as tonight passes, I will leave when the wind and snow stop tomorrow, and I will not delay much." ”

"There are places to sit, downstairs lobby, backyard stables, if you really can't sit in his room for a night, or he can invite you to stay in a graceful manner, maybe he can stand on the ground all night, why do you have to come and squeeze this square inch with me?"

Yan Liwu clearly refused to give in, Helian Ming had no choice, looked at Wen Moqing sideways, and shook his head gently. Seeing that Wen Moqing's brows were tight, Yan Liwu immediately had a premonition that something was not good, and just pulled down his face to contend with it, Wen Moqing had already pushed her away and sent Helian Ming directly into the house.

"I'll call you to dinner tomorrow morning." After throwing down such a sentence, Wen Moqing turned around and walked to his room, but although the distance was short, it was hopeless to walk back with peace of mind.

"Nowhere to go, huh? Okay, I'll figure it out for you. The tone of Yan Li's worry was quite cold, as if early spring was falling in the middle of winter, and Wen Moqing couldn't help but turn around to look at her face. In the corridor that was not very spacious, Yan Liwu stepped out of the door and stood in front of the stairs, ignoring Helian Mingyan in the room, and looked at Wen Moqing coldly: "Either she goes, or I go, there is only one person in this room tonight, what do you think?" ”

"What nonsense?" Wen Moqing's eyebrows finally couldn't help but wrinkle, and there was impatience in his tone.

From the first encounter in Qinglian Palace to the present, Wen Moqing has always thought that Yan Liwu is a reasonable woman, even if she is stubborn like a brute bull at times, if she explains carefully, she is still willing to listen. However, when he arrived in Anzhou, especially after Helian Ming appeared, Yan Liwu became a person who opposed him everywhere, regardless of his temper, which was vividly reflected.

If it were normal, Wen Moqing might raise his eyebrows and pretend to scare her a few words before explaining it clearly, but now he is also a mess in his heart, where is there still leisure to coax her to leave her worries?

And it was this short silence that caused De Yan's anger to explode completely, and he resolutely turned around, ran down the stairs with a low angry cheer from Wen Moqing, and disappeared into the sudden wind and snow.
