180 Temptation
"Don't worry, the news didn't come from me, and the emperor will never suspect me."
Lin Jiaojiao knew that he had always done things thoroughly, maybe he had already found a scapegoat, so she didn't say more, she could only praise him, "Mmmm, I know, Ling Shi has always been the smartest!" ”
Even Ling Yuheng, such a wholehearted praise spit out from his sweetheart's red little mouth was extremely useful in his ears, Ling Yuheng smiled slightly, "Does that Jiaojiao know how Li Fuzi is going to deal with it?" ”
"Li Fuzi and the fifth brother made an appointment, the fifth brother stayed in Shengping in Western Qin, Li Fuzi returned to the capital, and both ends had to make a move, I heard Gu Gu say that Li Fuzi and the emperor had a big quarrel, saying that Xiqin's move must have ulterior motives."
Ling Yuheng didn't know whether he thought that Lin Jiaojiao would not know more things, or didn't want her to worry too much, so he thought about it and said concisely, "You help me make an appointment with General Huo, I have something to discuss with him."
Lin Jiaojiao immediately said, "Then I'll go too, listen to your discussion!" ”
Ling Yuheng's eyes were soft and soft, "Jiaojiao'er, this kind of thing should be something that our men should worry about, Jiaojiao'er just needs to eat and have fun at home, and let us solve the rest."
Lin Jiaojiao blinked, Ling Yuheng gently put her hand in her hair, her soft smile was more beautiful and warm than the spring sun on the horizon, "Good~"
Lin Jiaojiao covered her eyes, a beautiful man or something, it's useless for her!
……
……
At the beginning of the night, Ling Yuheng pushed open a hidden door on the third floor of the Drunken Eight Immortals on time, and at the table near the window in the room, Huo Ningzhi sat upright, looking at the traffic outside the window, and turned his head to look at him silently when he heard the voice.
Ling Yuheng leaned over and saluted, "General Huo."
Huo Ningzhi nodded, "Lord Ling, please come in."
Ling Yuheng stepped into the door, turned around and closed the door, and looked around quietly, the private rooms where the drunken eight immortals entertained guests were all on the second floor, and few people could set foot on the third floor, and the furnishings inside were similar to the second floor, all of them were in that simple but atmospheric style, only one more side of the eight screens carved with the eight immortals crossing the sea.
The screen was so wide and heavy that he couldn't see what was behind it, or, should I say, what was hidden.
Ling Yuheng smiled slightly, "The drunken Eight Immortals of Jingguo Mansion can be ranked as the number one restaurant in the capital all the year round, and it really lives up to its reputation, it is a simple single screen, and it is more delicate than other places, especially this carving is exquisite and exquisite, I have never seen it."
As he spoke, he pretended to be very interested in the carving of the screen, and walked towards the screen.
Before I got closer, I saw a white and tender little face poking out from behind the screen, the hair of a crow and a crow, and the peach blossom eyes, who is it not Lin Jiaojiao?
Ling Yuheng rubbed his head with a headache, "Jiaojiao'er, what are you doing with this fun?" ”
Lin Jiaojiao glared at him, "It's obvious that you have a lot of business!" I said that I wanted to eavesdrop, and Second Brother Huo agreed without saying a word of nonsense, but you don't have a lot to say, and you are embarrassed to peek at other people's screens when you go to other people's territory, and there are so many things to say! ”
She said and ran to Huo Ningzhi's side and sat down, grimacing at Ling Yuheng, "Second Brother Huo is much better to me than you are to me!" ”
Ling Yuheng's face changed, and his smile took on a bit of a smile, "Jiaojiao'er, you are still young, you will understand who is really good to you in the future."
Lin Jiaojiao served Huo Ningzhiman tea, poured it for herself, and reached out to pat the seat next to her, "Sit, I have something to say, it's not too early, I have to go home and sleep."
Ling Yuheng smiled helplessly, walked over to her and sat down, picked up a teacup that was flipped in the tray and lit it up at her.
Lin Jiaojiao snorted lightly, but still poured him a glass.
Ling Yuheng took the teacup to his lips and took a sip, but did not put it down, only played with it in his hand, and spoke, "I know where Mingcheng is."
Lin Jiaojiao's eyes widened violently, "You know? How do you know? ”
Ling Yuheng smiled, "Then Jiaojiao'er doesn't have to worry about it."
Lin Jiaojiao wanted to say more, but swallowed her words again, "Where is Brother Ming?" ”
"Snow City, specifically, I won't know until I get to Snow City."
Lin Jiaojiao stood up coquettishly, "What is he doing in Wind and Snow City?" ”
"Then I don't know, I don't have anyone in my hands, and if I want to kill him, I can only ask General Huo to take action."
Ling Yuheng said and looked at Huo Ningzhi, "I just don't know if General Huo dares to take this risk."
Lin Jiaojiao immediately understood what he meant, Xi Qin's condition was for her to accompany Li Cai and Ming Cheng to marry Chen Gugu to Xi Qin, if Ming Cheng died, one of the three most important dowries would go, even if Xi Qin did not regret it, there would definitely be a lot of quarrels, and the matter would be delayed infinitely, so that they could gain more time to solve this matter.
Mingcheng is hiding in the shadows, no one knows where he is, no one knows if he is still alive, and he was secretly killed, which is convenient and effective.
Huo Ningzhi was about to speak, but Lin Jiaojiao intercepted his words, pretending to be shocked and angry, and said, "Why did you kill Senior Brother?" The Liuyi layman is a remnant of the previous dynasty, which does not necessarily mean that the senior brother is too! I won't let you go! ”
Ling Yuheng frowned, "Jiaojiao'er, this is the easiest and most convenient method, and Mingcheng follows the Liuyi monk day and night, it is impossible not to know it, since the Liuyi monk accepted him as an apprentice, he must want him to inherit his mantle, how can he be allowed not to know?" ”
Lin Jiaojiao only looked like she was carried away by emotion, and shouted, "Anyway, I just don't agree!" You're embarrassed to talk about him! Second Brother Huo sent so many people to look for him for so long and didn't find him, but you found it, maybe some people say that you and Brother Ming, Liuyi Jushi are all in the same group! ”
Ling Yuheng had a headache, Huo Ningzhi quietly cooperated with Lin Jiaojiao, "How did Lord Ling find Mingcheng?" ”
Ling Yuheng's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at Lin Jiaojiao, who was glaring at him, and then looked at Huo Ningzhi, who was paralyzed with a handsome face and did not move like a mountain, and his smile became a little cold, "General Huo is really good."
Lin Jiaojiao's puffing expression froze, rubbed her face, and pouted boringly, "I saw through it so quickly, it's boring!" ”
Ling Yuheng turned his eyes to look at her, "Jiaojiao'er wants to know, just ask directly, why bother with General Huo to lie to me?" ”
Lin Jiaojiao immediately pointed out the reality, "I asked you, you said you don't have to worry about me!" ”
"That's because General Huo is here."
Lin Jiaojiao didn't let go, "Then how do I know if you don't want to tell me, or because Second Brother Huo is here, it's inconvenient to tell me?" ”
Ling Yuheng's smile was even colder, "So you don't believe me, you'd rather believe General Huo."
Lin Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows, "So, Lord Ling, should I believe you?" ”
For a moment, Ling Yuheng almost wanted to slap the fake smile on her face away, when did his Jiaojiao become like this? How could she doubt him?
Even if she doubted him, she should have viciously grabbed him by the collar, or even kicked him in the stomach, and asked him viciously if he had lied to her, instead of being so determined, but implicitly tentatively asking him if she should believe him!
