Chapter 74: The Sound of Snow Falling (2)
"What is the sound of snow falling?" Qin Qing was very curious about Gao Yuanli's words, but she couldn't hear them when she pricked up her ears.
"Everything in the world has its own voice, which can only be heard by listening with the heart." Gao gradually scooped up the bamboo pieces and gently struck the strings, making a beautiful sound. Qin Qing didn't seem to understand it, and learned from what he was like before, slowly closed his eyes, listened attentively to the sounds around him, trying to integrate himself with the entire environment and experience the kind of artistic conception he said.
Just as she was intoxicated by the sound of the piano, Jing Ke came to her at some point: "Hey! I promised to stay and protect your life, but what if you can't find anyone who wants your life, and you don't have a proper guard? I don't want to stay here forever, let's agree on a deadline. ”
Qin Qing felt that what he said was also reasonable, after all, Jing Ke didn't owe her, nor did she owe the Qin family, she was completely fooled by her at the beginning. promised to stay and protect her, she had earned it, and it was not her usual style to gain an inch. But as a businessman, she will naturally not let go of the advantages she can take. It's okay to set a deadline, but she has no bottom in her heart about how much time to set, so she can only probe Jing Ke's tone first: "How long do you want the deadline?" ”
"Three months." Jing Ke thought that Qin Qing had let him decide the time, and he was overjoyed, wishing that the shorter the time to protect her, the better.
Qin Qing saw through his careful thoughts, and pretended to be slightly angry: "Such a short time is simply not enough for me to train new guards, do you want to fool me!" At least five years! ”
"Five years is too long, how about one year?" Qin Qing's mind was seen through, Jing Ke was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly gave her a smile. After gaining the upper hand, Qin Qing also gave in appropriately: "Four years." ”
"Two years!" Jing Ke continued to bargain without fear of death.
"Three years, don't negotiate with me again, otherwise I'll add more time!" After finding out Jing Ke's bottom line, Qin Qing made a final decision and no longer continued to entangle with him on this issue. Jing Ke was afraid that Qin Qing would give him another extension of time. Nodding hurriedly, he picked up his sword and ran back to the room.
After solving Jing Ke, all that was left was Gao gradually leaving, Qin Qing was in a good mood at this time, and he didn't plan to go around the bend with him, so he asked directly, "Jing Ke promised to stay, what are you going to do?" ”
"Senior brother's swordsmanship is good. If he stays, he will surely save your life. I don't know martial arts, and it's useless to stay, so I have to go back to Jicheng by myself. Although Gao Yanli said it seriously, Qin Qing clearly saw a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Obviously he is a master, but he said that he doesn't know martial arts, don't you know that it's shameful to pretend to be that, Qin Qing decided not to talk to him anymore. Reaching out and groping for the belt, he spread out his palm and stretched it out in front of Gao Yuanli, and the palm in his hand was the knife coin he picked up yesterday. == She smirked and said, "I'll give this back to you." ”
"You'll actually pick it up." Gao Yanli sighed and reached out to retrieve the knife coin. Slender fingers casually swiped across the palms. Feeling itchy, Qin Qing hurriedly withdrew his hand, pretending to be nothing, and continued to expose his old bottom: "Although I didn't see you make a move, but when I left, I picked up this, think about it carefully, only you and Jing Ke will have it." ”
"Then why didn't you think it was Jing Ke, but guessed that it was me?"
Because the situation was urgent at that time, Jing Ke was scooping up his sword to chase the assassin, and he didn't have time to send a hidden weapon. Only you have a chance. Qin Qing's words changed for a moment, and then he asked with a puzzled face: "But I don't understand, isn't it a good thing to know martial arts?" Why don't you admit it? ”
"I've been weak since I was a child. At the beginning, I only learned martial arts to strengthen my body, I didn't like to use martial arts, and if it wasn't for the emergency, I wouldn't have made a move. Gao Yanli reluctantly explained: "When I first learned from my master, the first time I returned to Jicheng, I heard that Yan Wangxi recruited young masters everywhere to enter the palace. Be a personal guard for Prince Dan. My father loves to make friends with powerful people, if he knew that I would do martial arts, he would definitely recommend it to King Yan, and I didn't want to enter the palace, so I always kept it hidden. ”
"That's why." She could understand that. Although Master Gao loves his son, it is also a fact that he is keen to make friends with powerful people, if he really knows that Gao will leave martial arts. It's hard to guarantee that it won't be for the sake of his son's future. Send him to the palace to be accompanied by Prince Dan. Although she and Gao have not known each other for a long time, it can be seen that he only likes music. If he really entered the palace as a guard, it would be a kind of torture for him.
But in this way, she was too embarrassed to say what he wanted to stay. He didn't do Prince Dan's guard, how could he be willing to stay in the Qin family to protect her? Although it's a pity that I didn't leave Gao Yuanli, I have a Jing Ke anyway, and I can barely make do with it.
After Qin Qing comforted himself in his heart, although he was still unwilling, he didn't want to make it difficult for him, so he had to say with a smile: "I wanted to keep you in the Qin family, since you have been hiding the matter of martial arts, then I am not strong, I believe that when the assassin comes, Jing Ke can also deal with it." ”
Seeing her smile so reluctantly, Gao Yanli couldn't help but blurt out: "I'll stay with Jing Ke." Qin Qing couldn't believe that Gao Yanli would take the initiative to ask to stay, she pinched the back of her hand hard to confirm whether she was dreaming.
"Why?" Qin Qing rubbed the back of his hand that was pinched red by himself, and asked puzzledly. This person is really strange, obviously he doesn't want to be a guard, he doesn't want to be restrained, and she doesn't force it anymore, but he took the initiative to agree to stay and protect her. Watching her childish movements, Gao Yanli smiled softly: "You once saved my life, this is what I owe you." ”
"Thank you for staying." Although he knew that he was repaying his kindness, Qin Qing still thanked him very sincerely. With the safety of his life guaranteed, Qin Qing was in a good mood, and walked outside the pavilion with his arms stretched out and shouted: "What beautiful snow!" ”
"Although the snow scene is beautiful, it is only on the surface, and when the sun comes out, it will be exposed to the sun." Gao gradually left Qin Qing's side, as if he was deeply emotional: "No matter how pure the coat is, it can't hide the ugliness of the world." ”
Qin Qing knew that he was lamenting the current way of the world, and sighed comfortingly: "Although the war between the Seven Kingdoms is not chaotic now, many people have lost their relatives and been displaced in the war. But the world will soon be peaceful, and then the people will have a good life. ”
"How do you know that the world will be peaceful?" Gao Yanli looked at Qin Qing meaningfully, originally thinking that she was just a young man with some talent for business. But listening to her tone, it seems that she also has some opinions about the situation in the world, which makes Gao Yuanli very surprised, and he can't help but discuss it with her.
Qin Qing suddenly regretted in his heart: Oops! If you don't pay attention for a while, and then tell what will happen in the future, how should you answer him now? Occasionally, it is a dizzy divider
In the past two days, the weather has been hot and cold, and finally succeeded in catching a cold from this person who does not live often, and the fever is so dizzy that the brain is dizzy, and I can't hold on to half of the yard last night, so I have to go to sleep.
