Chapter 192: A Lake of Poison Dart Frogs
Mo Yan felt a little sad in her heart, although she sympathized with Chen Ru'er, but now her master is Mao Leyan, she remembers it very clearly. She glanced back at Liu Zezhong, saw that his eyes were fixed on Mao Leyan's face, and sighed quietly in her heart, thinking about it, the little prince fell in love with the master, and this beginning was destined to be a mistake.
Mao Leyan sat on the bamboo chair that Chen Ruer had just sat on, and the fragrant smell of red plums behind her surged in the wind and rolled into her nose. She took a deep breath, her heart felt like she was pressing against a big rock, and it was difficult to even breathe.
After going around for so long, from King Qing's Mansion to the Imperial Palace, I never thought that it was because of this reason that I left him. And before, she was already planning to start with him. People are not as good as heaven, and people who have no fate, no matter how much they force them, there will be no results.
Liu Zezhong squatted beside her, held her hands domineeringly, and said arrogantly: "In the future, you can only think of Xiao Wang in your mind." ”
Mao Leyan laughed and laughed, glanced at him, and withdrew his hand, "What kind of joke?" ”
Liu Zezhong snorted, "Soon you will know that what Xiao Wang said is not a joke." ”
Xiao Shu and Fan'er glanced at each other and frowned worriedly. Ra Wei twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a helpless expression.
Mao Leyan straightened her expression, she looked at Liu Zezhong, and found that he looked serious, she pushed him, "I said, let you don't fight the idea of my weapon, I won't let my weapon be used in war, what's more, you are a usurper of the dynasty, a rebellious minister and a thief, and it is impossible for me to be in the same league with you." ”
Liu Zezhong was slightly stunned, "Xiao Wang is the emperor, you are the queen, isn't it?" Besides, even if you don't have your weapon, the little prince is sure to drive Liu gradually away from the throne, and this world is destined to be the little king's. ”
"Self-confidence is a good thing, too much self-confidence is conceit, and those who are conceited will be taught a lesson." Mao Leyan reminded.
"You wait, Xiao Wang will definitely marry you as Xiao Wang's queen, Xiao Wang will only guard you in this life, and there will be no other women." Liu Zezhong said this sentence in a domineering tone. Mao Leyan felt a slight pain in her heart, she had always hoped that Liu Yan would say this to her, but he told himself that he would only have one queen in his life, she was not uncommon to be a queen, she only hoped that he could treat her wholeheartedly, although he knew that as an emperor, he could not love her alone. Women are hearing creatures, preferring to listen to sweet words, as long as the person they love says it, even if they know it is a lie, they are still willing to do it.
Although this sentence came from the mouth of a man she hated the most, it made her feel sweet for a moment. Of course, she also knows that with Liu Zezhong's personality, it is impossible to love only one person for the rest of her life, but the vows of youth and frivolity are always easy to make people move.
If she was ten years younger, perhaps, she would be dissolved by his domineering and brutal words, but she is no longer young, she has seen all the impermanence of life and death in the hospital, and she has also seen too much love and clutch, how many abandoned parties cut off their arteries and lay in the operating room, closing their eyes forever, at that time, as a bystander, she knew that love is not so-called eternal.
Xiao Shu plucked up the courage and said: "Little Prince, Miss is now Concubine Le's mother, and the little prince should not be taken lightly." ”
Liu Zezhong glared at Xiao Shu, because of Mao Leyan's relationship, he was not angry, and only said lightly: "What does the little girl know?" She is not really Concubine Le Niangniang, her entry into the palace was just designed by Mo Li, Mo Li, this villain, Xiao Wang has long known his tricks. In the future, your young lady will only stay in King Jing's Mansion, stay with Xiao Wang, and not go anywhere. ”
Mao Leyan smiled lightly, "Are you sure you can keep me?" ”
"Xiao Wang doesn't need to keep you, as long as you really understand Xiao Wang's heart, you will definitely be willing to stay." Liu Zezhong said proudly.
Mao Leyan sneered, but felt in her heart that being young is good, she can say that she loves someone unscrupulously, and there is no need to think about the problems brought about by love.
Being secretly in love with a young man is also enough to satisfy vanity. She closed her eyes, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, she would naturally stay, so that she would go out and cause trouble to others, it was better to stay by Liu Zezhong's side, so Chen Ru'er would be a bogeyman, and she would not dare to start easily. She broke her illusion this time, making her completely disillusioned with her previous perfect impression in Liu Ze Center, how could she easily forgive herself? Mao Leyan sighed quietly in his heart.
What should come is always coming, and you can't hide from it, it's better to face the eye of the storm.
King Jing hadn't been to King Jing's Mansion for a long time, but this time, he personally led two guards into King Jing's Mansion. The prospect king and the Jing king do not interact with each other, and even become a thorn in each other's side, after all, everyone covets the same goal, and they can be regarded as enemies.
Therefore, the arrival of King Jing made the people of King Jing's Mansion wait.
Liu Zezhong personally came out to greet him, and he said with a smile: "The prince is coming, and he is not far away!" ”
"Where is Mao Leyan?" King Jing went straight to the topic.
Liu Zezhong was slightly stunned, and then laughed, "The prince is really fast-talking, since this is the case, Xiao Wang does not hide it, Mao Leyan is indeed here." It's okay for the prince to come and see her, but it's impossible to take her away. ”
King Jing glanced at him lightly and said: "She has hands and feet, she will naturally go if she wants to go, with her ability, she can come and go freely in your Jingwang Mansion, and it is purely leisurely, where do you want this king to take her away?" This king just wants to see what tricks she plays, she can't live in a good palace, but she wants to take her family to you. ”
Liu Zezhong smiled and said proudly: "She is the future princess of Xiao Wang, so naturally she wants to live in King Jing's Mansion, if she doesn't come here, where else can she go?" ”
"What a big breath, I dare to rob the emperor's concubine, this king really underestimated your cousin." King Jing snorted, King Jing and Emperor Xian are brothers, so Liu Zezhong can also be regarded as his cousin. He knew that there were many masters in King Jing's mansion, and there were many capable people who would be on the sidelines, he was worried that Mao Leyan was trapped here, and now looking at Liu Zezhong's expression, it seems that he is emotionally attracted to Mao Leyan, and he is slightly relieved, so in this way, Mao Leyan should be in no danger.
Liu Zezhong only smiled evilly, his handsome face was a little arrogant, "Lord Wang, please!" Even though King Jing called him a cousin, he still called him the prince.
King Jing stepped in with the guards and strode towards the inner hall.
Although King Jing has not been to Jingwangfu for a long time, he knows the layout of Jingwangfu well, he has been monitoring Jingwangfu for a long time, and everyone is a contender for the throne, so they naturally have to know themselves and their opponents.
Mao Leyan sat next to the lotus pond, the cold wind was swishing, and there was a feeling of pain on his face. The lotus pond was frozen and deadly silent, but she stared at the frozen lake with a solemn expression.
King Jing's heart sank, and he knew the reason for her leaving the palace from Mo Li's mouth, but he didn't expect her to be hurt so deeply. In this cold winter, I sat by the lake in a daze.
Just as he stepped forward and wanted to comfort him, Mao Leyan suddenly shouted in a low voice: "Break!" ”
As her voice sounded, the ice on the surface of the lake suddenly crackled, and the thick ice was completely crumbled. Ice splattered up and exploded into the sky like a flying hidden weapon.
A bowl-sized ice cube flew towards King Jing, he quickly raised his palm and slammed it, looking at Mao Leyan slightly, "What are you doing?" ”
Mao Leyan smiled slightly, the cold wind blew her temples messy, her clothes fluttered, she walked over slowly, and said, "I'm bored and practicing, why are you here?" ”
"Come and see if you're dead." King Jing said angrily, causing him to worry in vain, it turned out that she was very happy.
"Not dead, but soon," she said briskly, "I'm freezing to death." ”
King Jing took off his black cloak, put his hand on her back, tied the belt for her, and said, "Go back if it's cold." ”
Mao Leyan shook his head, "Not yet!" As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a burst of black air suddenly rise from the surface of the lake and rush to the sky.
Seeing that the black qi was gone, she showed an evil smile, "Now, you can go." ”
King Jing and Liu Zezhong both asked in shock, "What is that?" ”
Mao Leyan pointed to the lake and said, "See for yourself." ”
The two looked at the surface of the lake, only to see that the ice had broken on the surface of the lake, and there were colorful frogs on the water. The frogs are dead and floating on the surface of the lake.
"Poison Dart Frog?" King Jing said in shock. When he and Mao Leyan were investigating the case, they had seen this kind of poisonous arrow frog, which was extremely poisonous, and a little contamination could kill people.
"Is it my aunt's poison dart frog? How are there so many? Liu Zezhong couldn't help but be terrified when he saw the frogs all over the lake.
"She raised it here, and I originally suspected that she raised poison dart frogs here, but poison dart frogs generally grow in tropical places, where it is cold and snowy, and it is impossible to raise them successfully. However, yesterday I sat here and watched for a long time, although the surface of the lake was frozen, but there was a place that secretly revealed a warm breath, I walked over to take a look, it turned out that there was a warm current gushing out at the bottom, the bottom of the lake, there is another world, I suspect, the poison dart frog was raised by her under the lake. Mao Leyan said suddenly.
"And who are you?" King Jing asked suspiciously.
"I ordered someone to dive into the water last night, broke the barrier layer at the bottom of the lake, and sealed the warm current, because the lake is not deep, the water at the bottom of the lake cannot flow, and the weather is cold, so the water temperature will also decrease, I broke the ice, so that the cold air penetrated directly into the place where the poison dart frog was raised under the lake, and the poison dart frog could not withstand the cold, and they all died." Of course, she didn't say that she had cast an icy spell at the bottom of the lake to keep the water temperature to a minimum. Last night, she asked Xiao Er and the two ghosts in the book to dive underwater, and sure enough, she found that there was another world at the bottom of the lake, and it was inevitable that these poisoned arrow frogs would become Chen Ruer's weapons in the future, and she would destroy them first.
Liu Zezhong looked a little confused, "She didn't even tell Xiao Wang about this." "There was some loss in my heart, some anger. It turned out that the so-called everything was done according to his intentions, but it was just a lie to coax the child, and how many things she did behind her back was unknown to herself?
