I wanted to take my mother to Jinling to provide for her, but she didn't want to leave her homeland and preferred to live in her hometown by herself. Later, I was given the title of Jinyi Wei for 28 nights, and since then I have no name and no surname, and I have to abandon my family background, and I can't do a little filial piety for her, and I often regret it.
About three years ago, in the middle of summer, a torrential rain in Jianning Mansion caused a torrential flood, destroying many people's homes and causing countless casualties. I was anxious to get this news from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but Jinling and Fujian are thousands of miles away, and even if I have the heart to go back, there is nothing I can do.
At this moment, to my great surprise, the ghost golden sheep under the second prince came to me, saying that the second prince knew that my hometown had suffered this disaster, and had arranged for the garrison of Jianning Mansion under him to find my mother and properly resettle her old man. Afraid that I would not believe it, I even brought my mother's handwritten letters and tokens.
I also felt very apprehensive about the second prince's sudden 'kindness', but the ghost golden sheep said that the second prince was willing to help, but he hoped that I would accept his personal affection, and when I needed it in the future, I would be able to repay the favor. He paused, his tone a little astringent, "Not long ago, the woman named Ziyan under the second prince came to me and asked me for a list of new officials in the household department, and I knew that it was finally the day when I needed to pay it back. โ
"What a reciprocation." I couldn't help but sneer, "So in the case of the Three Thousand Battalions, the information was leaked to the second prince in advance, and in the official salt case, Ping'an Hou was asked to shut up early, even if it was a report for apricots and apples?" โ
My naked words made Qin Lang's face a little pale, and the corners of his lips moved a few times, and then he said loudly: "I didn't do those things!" Even about the list of household officials, I was also entangled in every way, and I was reluctant from the bottom of my heart. It's just ......" he looked into my eyes with deep helplessness, "good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and since I have inherited his kindness, there will always be a day when I will repay it." Besides, since they have found out the details of my background and found my mother's whereabouts, if they can save her, they can also ......."
I understood what he meant, and I understood the deep entanglement he was in. Leng Xinyue before, a weak woman who didn't know the world, for the sake of her father who was in prison, she was still able to give up her innocence and life, not to mention Qin Lang, a seven-foot man and a bloody man?!
"I understand your struggle. However, when you handed over the list, and watched Luo Dongyang and Wu Xiaoyi being killed one after another, but you were indifferent and had no remedy, Qin Lang, do you really have a clear conscience? โ
To my surprise, the corners of Qin Lang's lips pulled out a sneer: "These people deserve to die." Luo Dongyang betrayed his friends and occupied his goddaughter, Wu Xiaoyi killed his wife and daughter's parents for wealth, such beasts are not worthy of living in the world in a high position! As for Ke Linan and Hong Yuan, which one is not stupid and incompetent, and there are countless unjust cases under his hands, and it is not a pity to die at all. He turned his head to look at me, "And Zhang Wei, if he dies, it can be regarded as eliminating harm for Jinling, and it is also avenging you." โ
I was really shocked by Qin Lang's words, staring at Qin Lang's eyes and saying word by word: "Even if they deserve to die, they should be judged by Dali Temple and die under the knife of the executioner outside the noon gate, instead of dying in the fright of their own fifth aunt and dying in the bed of a secret prostitute!" The more I talked, the more excited I became, almost yelling at Qin Lang, "If everyone thinks that they can eliminate violence and peace, then what is the use of the Ming Dynasty and the government?!" What's the use of the king's law?! โ
After saying these words with great strength, I felt as if I had collapsed, a deep powerlessness and helplessness, which arose spontaneously from the bottom of my heart.
As for human rights and the rule of law, these concepts that have not yet awakened in the Ming Dynasty have long been deeply rooted in my heart. I have tried to use my modest part to promote even the slightest progress in the ideas of this era, but now it seems that it is only a futile of my imagination.
Taking a deep breath, I turned around and tried to calm my trembling body: "You go, I'...... I don't want to see you. โ
I could feel his hand slowly rising behind me, as if trying to grasp my fingertips as usual, but it finally fell down and swept past the sleeve of my coat.
"Okay, I'...... I'll see you in a few days. โ
"No need."
The tone behind him suddenly became desolate: "Yue'er, you and I ......"
"Me and you, I can't think about it myself." I looked up, not wanting the tears to roll down my eyes, "When I think clearly, let's talk about it." โ
At the beginning of September, it rained several times in Jinling City, which made the hot and dry weather after the beginning of autumn drop suddenly, which verified the sentence "an autumn rain and a cold".
In the cool autumn of Xiao Suo, the enthusiasm of the people of Jinling for the female ghost case gradually declined. After the incident of Colin An's family banquet, Lord Yin Xue of Tianfu met with His Majesty, poisoned five women, attacked four high-ranking officials, and stated the truth of two of their deaths to His Majesty in detail.
His Majesty was shocked, but also understood that the killer behind the scenes was strange and clever, and it was not something that a mere Ying Tianfu could deal with, so he ordered Ying Tianfu to draw the body characteristics of the woman named "Ziyan", handed it over to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and sent some Jinyi Guard masters to track it down.
After more than half a month of tracking, this ghostly woman is still missing, and the only thing to be thankful for is that there are no poisoned women in Jinling City.
I think that's all to be expected.
I didn't reveal Qin Lang's matter to anyone, I know very well, but if a word is revealed, what will be the result for him.
I could only bury it deep in my heart, turning it into a thorn in my heart, which was not already strong, and it ached everywhere and everywhere.
I have to admit that from my previous life to this life, I have been a girl with a habit of cleanliness.
This kind of cleanliness is not in the dirtiness of the outside, but in the heart, in the things that I advocate and protect, such as morality, such as love, and do not allow the slightest blasphemy.
For example, in his previous life, Yunqi served as a conductor in the school's symphony orchestra, during which a girl who played the cello and a beautiful French student once had some feelings of admiration for Yunqi.
Originally, a grass-level character like Yunqi didn't have too many girls who had thoughts about him, and he often felt annoyed that he himself had a French Barbie doll.
I didn't pay much attention to it, but the problem came up with a photo.
The girl played the violin well, but her Chinese skills were not as high as her piano skills, so Yunqi, who had studied French, naturally became her translator in the orchestra.
After a rehearsal, it was probably Yunqi who felt that the girl's performance was a little flawed, so he approached her and helped her brush off a little confetti from her long hair.
This scene was filmed by other students with their mobile phones, probably because they thought that they had taken a beautiful shot, so they posted it on the school forum, and it was very vulgarly named "Heartbeat".
However, a few hours later, the photo was forwarded to my phone by Tang Weiwei.
At that time, I was having dinner with Yunqi, who had finished rehearsal, and I was successfully choked by this photo, and my face was red with a cough.
Yunqi thoughtfully came over to pat me on the back, glanced at myself on my phone by the way, and said lightly: "You best friend, it's too boring." โ
Isn't it boring...... I slowed myself down, stared at Yunqi's eyes and chuckled, "Do you dare to bet: I can guess what you were thinking when you gave this girl her hair." โ
He looked at me with disgust: "You're so boring too? โ
"Just say if you dare."
"What don't you dare." He looked indifferent and open.
"Okay." I leaned forward, deliberately approached Yunqi, stared into his eyes and said word by word: "You thought to yourself: This girl is so beautiful. โ
He was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his finger and flicked my forehead: "What...... How dare you be jealous? โ
But I didn't move, still staring into his eyes, and my face gradually darkened.
Yunqi was stared at by me a little hairy: "What are you doing?" Do you really think you can read minds? โ
To tell the truth, although in my previous life, like thousands of girls, I had superstitious constellations and studied tarot, but I didn't dabble in something mysterious like mind reading.
But out of interest in studying human psychology, I once took a whole year of psychology courses, during which there was a course called "micro-expression research".
Thanks to this course, the panic, stunned and guilty in Yunqi Fangcai's eyes were captured by me.
That fleeting expression, like a thorn, pierced my heart.
"Okay, okay, she's pretty good." Yun Qi pinched his eyebrows, and changed to a soft tone like a child, "But she is not as beautiful as our family Xinyue!" โ
Placing your hand between your brow bones is a common gesture when you feel ashamed, in order to create a visual barrier to hide your true emotions.
When I recalled this classic passage as if I was memorizing a textbook, a sneer hung on the corner of my mouth: "You have a good impression of her, why don't you dare to admit it?" โ
I asked again and again, which finally made Yunqi a little annoyed: "It's just a photo that was taken secretly, what kind of vinegar do you eat?" I've had a lot of photos with girls, and I've never seen you care so much! โ
Indeed, he attends various public occasions and takes photos with all kinds of girls, among which there are many people who are hooked shoulders and arms are held.
But they are all different from this one, and the difference is in Yunqi's eyes.
That kind of look, I had seen it in Yunqi's eyes when he looked at me in my previous life, and I also understood it in Qin Lang's gaze when he looked at me in this life.
That kind of look is stunning, and it also has a kind of possessiveness that is unique to men.
That kind of look is called liking.
