Chapter 45: Surprise (1)
"You killed her father in front of her!" Bai Hanyan really felt sorry for Lingji at this moment, his beloved killed his father, what a great pain it was!
Duan Changge's face was pale, but his voice was very calm: "The emperor's order can't be done, I have no other way, it's just that Lingji ...... I couldn't get a killer. ”
Bai Hanyan remembered that Ling Ji had said that Duan 3 Changge's love was only enough for him to soften his heart once.
"How did you save her?"
Duan Changge threw the falling flower in his hand, hooked his lips and chuckled: "Then I need to thank Wang Jin, Wang Jin heard that the emperor had murderous intentions and swore to live and die with the Wu people, I was afraid that he would do something wrong, so I locked him up." At the end of the battle, I ordered the corpse of a woman resembling Lingji to be placed in a carriage and told him to capture Lingji, but the horse went mad and he watched her fall into the abyss. ”
Bai Hanyan was silent for a moment, and sighed: "Wang Jin made this testimony, you saved Lingji by stealing beams and changing pillars, but let him get an official position for killing the princess of the Wu tribe, and he was guilty for a lifetime, he made a Buddha statue in the appearance of Lingji, repented every day, and never forgave himself until he died."
Duan Changge's eyes flashed with melancholy, and he said in a low voice: "It's just that what I didn't expect was that the patriarch of the Qiang tribe drew the location of the iron and stone minerals before he died, but when he was dying, he handed over this map to Wang Jin, and begged him to read it for the sake of being a member of the Wu tribe, and to keep the secret of the Wu tribe forever." ”
Duan Changge's eyes sank slightly, and he continued: "I have forced him, but he would rather die than hand over this thing, thinking that their Qiang tribe was born because of this. Because of this, I did not tell the emperor about it. ”
"It turns out that this is all the way it is."
Bai Hanyan couldn't help but sigh lowly, the rights and wrongs of this world, the two sides of opposites, there is no absolute right and wrong, it's just that providence makes people, Ling Ji and Duan Changge, I'm afraid they are enemies in this life.
"She'll kill you." Bai Hanyan looked at him and said.
"I know, she's just waiting for me to find the picture now." Duan Changge said that the clouds are light and the wind is light.
The love and hatred between them, Bai Hanyan didn't know what to say at the moment, and he was not qualified to say anything.
"It's just Cheng Xiao......" Bai Hanyan thought of him, frowned, and said, "How could he go to the same place with Ling Ji?" ”
"Behind Cheng Xiao, there should be people." Duan Changge's eyes flashed with fierceness.
"You mean the one hiding in the shadows?" Bai Hanyan's eyes crossed a trace of uneasiness, he was indeed a tricky character, the person who pretended to be Wang Jian, the person who created corpse spots for Cheng Xiao, the so-called nephew of Cheng Xiao!
Duan Changge shook his head, looked at her with heavy eyes, and said in a condensed voice: "It's not him, things are far from being as simple as you think, there are not a few people staring at that steel, Wang Jin knows that the matter of that map has been revealed, and he knows that there are many eyes staring at him, but he can't blatantly hand over this map to me, so he has to entrust that map to me." ”
"Why can't I give it to you blatantly?"
"Because, her wife is a spy sent by the imperial court."
Bai Hanyan was stunned, it turned out that the emperor didn't trust him at all, after all, he was a member of the Wu clan, and the emperor was still the enemy of his exterminating clan, how could he trust him completely?
She looked up sharply, and vaguely guessed in her heart that her wife's death was ......
"Yes, you speculated Cheng Xiao, but you couldn't find Wang Jin, in this game, he also calculated his own life." Duan Changge's voice was slightly mournful.
Bai Hanyan gradually lowered his eyes, maybe the mess between his wife and cousin was also caused by his indulgence and even single-handedly, and he even allowed himself to get the disease of chancre, forcing his wife to live in the world without shame.
In this game, who lost, Bai Hanyan thought, it must not be Wang Jin, at least he kept the secret. It's just that what she is worried about now is, who will be the person hiding behind Cheng Xiao?
"Duan Changge, have you ever wondered why Wang Jin burned incense when he was a child?" Bai Hanyan looked at him, his eyes shining.
Duan Changge lowered his eyes and thought about it, and said, "I also thought about this matter, and I also went to look for it in the middle of the night, but I found nothing. ”
Bai Hanyan refused to give up, grabbed his sleeve and said, "There is nothing in this world for no reason, we are going to go tonight." ”
In the middle of the night, in the middle of the moon, in Wang Jin's main house, the candle flame was dim.
Bai Hanyan and Duan Changge stood in front of the Buddha statue, measuring it carefully.
Sure enough, nothing has changed.
Duan Changge stared at her unhappily and said, "I said, I didn't get anything, and you still don't believe it." ”
"I really don't believe it." Bai Hanyan raised his face and said stubbornly: "Wang Jin has no reason to be at this time every day, and he told the little guy to burn incense at this time, he must have left clues for us." ”
Duan Chang raised his eyebrows at her and shrugged his shoulders: "Okay, since you think so, then look for it." ”
Bai Hanyan ignored him, turned his head and stared at the surroundings of the Buddhist shrine carefully, only to feel that the main house at this moment seemed to be a little different from when she came on weekdays.
She frowned and pondered, what was the difference?
Duan Changge reclined on the table, drinking with a wine glass, which was a little comfortable.
"See what?"
Bai Hanyan shook his head, and there was some disappointment between his eyebrows.
Duan Changge chuckled and took the wine glass, slowly walked out of the main room, and said, "You look for it slowly, I'll go to sleep first." ”
Bai Hanyan looked at the Buddha statue, Lingji's appearance was molded with low eyebrows and peaceful, and he couldn't help muttering: "Wang Jin, Wang Jin, tell me quickly, where did you hide that secret?" ”
Bai Hanyan sat on the high slope and watched the sun slowly climb out, feeling inexplicably irritable, casually touching the stones in the grass and throwing them down the slope.
"Bai Gongzi, why are you here?"
A weak woman's voice came from behind her, and Bai Hanyan looked for the sound, but saw Zhang Wang's wife carrying a bamboo basket on her back, looking at her with a look of surprise.
"Sister-in-law Zhang."
Bai Hanyan stood up and walked towards her, looking at her carrying a heavy bamboo basket, which was full of emerald green herbs, and frowned slightly: "You are ...... so early"
Zhang Wang's wife smiled, and said with sparkling eyebrows: "Xianggong was called by the village chief to catch snakes in a neighboring village a few days ago, and it was boring for me to stay alone, so I wanted to dig up some herbs to sell them for some silver." ”
Bai Hanyan stretched out his hand to carry the bamboo basket on his body, looked at his wife and shook his head, but he couldn't resist her, so he had to let her carry the bamboo basket all the way home.
"Isn't the snake plague gone?" Bai Hanyan walked side by side with her and asked casually.
"Yes, I also want to thank Duan Immortal. It's just that there are still some snakes in the neighboring village who refuse to go, so scared that the villagers don't dare to go out of the house, but fortunately, Duan Immortal still has some elixirs, and Xianggong is a little bolder, so he goes to help out and earn some broken silver. ”
Bai Hanyan smiled and nodded, looked at his wife and glanced at her, and said, "Bai Gongzi, do you have something on your mind?" ”
Bai Hanyan was surprised: "Why did Sister-in-law Zhang say that." ”
Zhang Wang's wife smiled at her and said with a shallow smile: "Bai Gongzi, it's good if you call me Lian'er." I saw Bai Gongzi's eyebrows locked deeply, and his face was sad, didn't he have something on his mind? ”
Bai Hanyan didn't expect her to be such a clear-hearted woman, but saw Lian'er continue: "My father-in-law is a hard-working person, he has been tricked by fate, in the early years he lived in the village suffered, he fled the famine and came here, but he has always been optimistic, he always said that there is no endless road, like, just like ......"
Lian'er paused, her face was shy, and she lowered her eyebrows and said with a smile: "It's like a child's thing, he has always said that God won't look at us all the time, and now it's really here." ”
Bai Hanyan looked at her lower abdomen in surprise, and said in disbelief: "Are you pregnant?" ”
"I also found out yesterday that I was pregnant with twins, and the fetal position was unstable that day, and there was a miscarriage on the same day, and there was another one in the womb, thanks to Duan Xianren, the medicine he prescribed to me, I asked the doctor in the city, and it was all good medicine for fetal safety."
Lian'er blinked her eyes and asked her with some surprise: "It's just that since Duan Xianren knew that I was pregnant, why didn't he tell me and Xianggong that day?" ”
Bai Hanyan pursed his lips, smiled awkwardly and said, "Maybe I want to surprise you." ”
Bai Hanyan's words lacked confidence, this long song just wanted to find a reason to stay, and the couple worried for many days in vain.
Turning the street, Zhang Wang's low house was in front of him, Bai Hanyan handed her the bamboo basket in his hand, and said, "You can raise the fetus with peace of mind, Zhang Wang will definitely be happy when he knows it." ”
Lian'er's face was flushed, she pursed her lips and chuckled, waving her hand to say goodbye.
Bai Hanyan looked at her departing back, her eyes deepened, Lian'er was right, there was no endless road, she didn't believe it, she couldn't find out this secret.
Ma Zhenbing brought dinner for Bai Hanyan and stood at the door of the main house, a little anxious: "Han Gongzi, even if you are in a hurry, you can't stop eating or drinking, you have to eat something." ”
The door of the main house was closed, and Ma Zhenbing didn't dare to push it open, so he could only stand at the door and be in a hurry.
Duan Changge walked out of the wing room, Ma Zhenbing's eyes lit up when he looked at him, and he hurriedly ran over and said, "Duan Xianren, you came just in time, Han Gongzi has locked himself in the main house since the morning, not eating or drinking, I am afraid that if I go on this day, my body will not be able to bear it." ”
Duan Changge stared at him coldly, his eyes were a little gloomy: "You care about her." ”
Ma Zhenbing's face turned pale, and he laughed dryly twice: "I'm concerned about Lord Duan." ”
Duan Changge snatched the food from his hand and said, "Don't bother you." ”
With that, he raised his leg and walked towards the main house, slamming the door open with one kick and kicking it shut again.
Ma Zhenbing looked at the sky, shook his head and sighed.
Bai Hanyan stared coldly at Duan Changge, who broke in, and his face was pale: "Won't you knock on the door?" ”
"This is your home?" Duan Changge slammed the food on the table, and sneered, "I'll go get you a bed quilt, it seems that you are going to live here tonight." ”
Bai Hanyan ignored him, still sitting in front of the idol and staring at the idol, she always felt as if she had missed some clues.
Duan Changge simply moved a stool, sat next to her, and watched with her.
The sun was setting, the moon was floating in the clouds, and darkness was upon us again.
The moonlight fell on the window lattice, enveloping the room like a light veil, looming everything in plain sight.
Duan Changge looked at the gloom of the room, sighed, got up and walked to the table, and felt for the fire fold to light the lamp.
Bai Hanyan sighed softly, inadvertently raised his eyes but saw the moonlight falling on the window, suddenly felt enlightened, and suddenly drank: "Not allowed!" ”
Duan Changge was shaken by her roaring hand, stared at her unhappily, and said, "What are you doing, if you don't light the lamp, you still expect the moonlight to illuminate you." ”
Bai Hanyan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Duan Changge and said, "Yes, it's the moon, it's the moon!" ”
Duan Changge raised his sword eyebrows and muttered, "Moon ......"
Bai Hanyan walked quickly to his side, grabbed his arm, and said excitedly: "Yes, it's the moon when it's a child." ”
