Chapter 172: Poke me to death and die
Changying pursed her lips and looked away.
She didn't know how much he missed those half months back then, and he always didn't forget to mention it to her, which made her really seem to abandon her from the beginning.
There is no way to continue the topic.
She unconsciously took the peach he had received and took a bite.
But she didn't think he had the confidence to fight against Ling Yuan, Ling Yuan was serious, he couldn't beat a powerful Hou Ye, and she didn't want Huo Rong to have any conflict with Ling Yuan. The emperor values him, and he will not let him go against his ministers.
She thought of his wound again and looked over.
He was facing this side, his right hand to his forehead, and he was eating the fruit intently.
The side face fell in Changying's eyes, and he couldn't find a trace of fault.
I've known him for so long, but I've never looked at him seriously. This man has excellent skin and bones, and he is sought after wherever he is placed.
Don't blame Miss Cheng and Huang Huiqi pestering him, when there was no accident three years ago, maybe she might have shined in his eyes.
It's a pity that she is past the age of being a nymphomaniac.
She thought about it for a while, and decided to skip the matter of the marriage letter first: "Ling Yuan, you better try not to provoke him, you can't fight him."
"And we will rarely see each other in the future, the prince is powerful, and it is possible for him to make any drastic moves in this situation. Even if you are very capable, there is no need to hit a stone with an egg. ”
Huo Rong didn't say anything, and he didn't know if he heard it.
Changying waited for a long time, but he didn't respond, so he couldn't help but want to poke him. Halfway through, he grabbed his fingers and bit them between the two rows of teeth.
He grabbed the hand and moved it down, pointing to his heart: "You should poke here, just poke me to death, and I will die." ”
Changying couldn't reply for a while.
Huo Rong played with this finger, the nails were clean and neat, the fingers were white and white, and the touch was slightly cool, like jade.
He loosened his hand, and his face was calm, as if he had done something that could not have been more upright.
Changying was speechless for a long time.
The corners of the eyebrows and eyes of the person in front of her were full of certainty, she didn't know how he would be so determined all the time, as if his life was a chess game that he had long been familiar with, no matter how he went, he was confident to go to the final victory.
Guan quickly walked to the door, saw the house and hurriedly exited the threshold, coughing.
Huo Rong said: "Come in." ”
Guan Su came in: "The fifth master of the Shen family is back." Purple is a first-class young lady outside. ”
Changying stood up, Shaoqing is back?
……
The Shen family was already preparing to eat, and during the time when Changying went to the Huo family, Shaoqing had already finished washing and wiping his hair in the room.
Changying walked in the door and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
Shaoqing casually curled his hair and said, "If you don't go, I don't know, the Hangzhou sea disaster is more serious than we imagined." I lurked in the prefect of Hangzhou and searched the wharf day and night, and found that there were as many as seven or eight thief ships that came to harass me.
"There are also sporadic pirates who will come from time to time to make trouble, and the city is also plagued by them, but this kind of often does not last long under the guards of the guards.
"Some traces of the Gu family and the prince have also been collected, you can take a look."
He took out a roll of paper and stuffed it for her.
Chang Ying flipped through his hands twice, only to see that most of them were innocuous crimes, that is, there were two big problems, and there were not enough clues to catch a conclusive handle in a short period of time.
Ling Yuan only gave her a month, obviously unable to take care of it.
"Go back and go to the six doors to urge those people, how are they doing?" After reading her, she said to Zhou Liangdao.
The next day, she was going to inspect the docks, but because Huo Rong gave her Song Xiao's movements in Beijing, she never went anywhere.
After reading it, his thoughts returned to yesterday's Ling Yuan words.
Let's put aside the matter of the transfer, Yang Ji once targeted her, which is something worth pondering.
Lu En, who Ling Yan sacrificed his life to protect, and Qian Chu, whom Huo Rong wanted to protect, were both people in Zhan Shifu, and after Zhan Shifu experienced that turmoil, Yang Ji wanted to take another concubine to fill the harem, and not long after the Qian family's accident, Ling Yan also had an accident, and everything happened at that juncture, which also made Changying can't help but think deeply.
Ling Yan was reluctant to marry her into the East Palace, and then she was really not included in the East Palace, she left the Ling family in the name of ingratitude, and although she went through hardships, this is at least free from the point of view.
She was not passively involved in the whirlpool of political struggle, and she was able to enter the military camp and get where she is today.
So, did Ling Yan have a deep meaning in choosing to let her be this "murderer" in the first place?
If so, then wouldn't it be possible to prove that he was really begging for death when he suddenly became angry in front of the battle?
Changying's heart is surging, if he is really begging for death, then why?
Isn't it just to get rid of Yang Ji and let her get out of the Ling family?
……
Following the Cheng Xiao case, the hottest issue between the DPRK and China recently is the issue of reopening maritime transport.
Song Xiao was a great Confucian and quite influential among scholars. As soon as he raised his arms, this matter has been boiling up and down recently.
Yang Ji and Gu Lian, the prince of Dongping, had just discussed things in the front hall, and Feng Su came in with low eyebrows: "Your Highness, there is a secret letter from Huai'an."
"A few days ago, the guards sent to assassinate Huo Rong were all wiped out, and no one has come back so far, Peng Xie suspected that he was poisoned, and sent someone to deliver a letter overnight."
Yang Ji's pen paused, and Feng Su turned around and brought the person into the hall.
After reading the letter, Yang Ji's phoenix eyes turned cold: "Huo Rong is just a Zhaoyi general, how can he defeat as many as twelve palace guards?" There wasn't a clue left, and he didn't go to find out why? ”
Lai Dao: "I have checked, there is no trace, and even Huo Rong is as usual, I can't see that I have encountered an assassination."
"The guards acted on their own after arriving in Huzhou, so even we adults didn't know exactly when and where they would get their hands down. If it weren't for the letter that came back to Huai'an before they acted, we don't even know if they had acted. ”
Yang Ji groaned.
Feng Sudao: "There are many bandits in Jiangnan, could it be that there was some accident before the move?" ”
Yang Ji was noncommittal. glanced at the person who came, and folded the letter: "How is Nan Kangwei doing?" ”
"There was no news coming out of the guard, and Ling Yuan and Shen Ying were also in order, and they didn't find any extra contact. Huo Rong and Shen Ying are closer.
"-That's right," the person who came here looked up, "Ling Yuan went to Hangzhou Weifu to inspect a while ago, and although he came back soon, there were two fewer guards around him when he came back. ”
Yang Ji's eyes were slightly closed, and his expression was obviously colder.
After the person came down, Feng Su turned to Yang Ji: "If Huo Rong doesn't get rid of him, then Ling Yuan won't be able to think about Shen Ying again, and if he doesn't use Shen Ying to stumble him, he is only afraid that he will stare at the sea." Your Highness, do you want to send someone south again? ”
Yang Ji rolled his sleeves: "This matter is too strange, people can send it, but they are not in a hurry to do it again." ”
Feng Su hung his head.
"The most important thing right now is Hangzhou." Yang Ji said slowly, "Tell them to go down and let them keep a low profile for the time being." ”
