What kind of expression King Ning would have after receiving the Shocking Sword, Wei Nong could almost imagine that after the spies sent the news back, she was even snickering when she was eating.
Nie Xingchen saw her this time and felt that she had changed a lot, although she would still be unhappy occasionally, but she was not as depressed as before, and she had become much gentler.
He was naturally pleasantly surprised by this change in her, so he couldn't help but ask, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"King Xiaoning," Wei Nong simply put down his chopsticks, "It can make him so angry that he blows his beard and stares, it's funny to think about!" ”
Nie Xingji also laughed: "I really didn't expect you to come up with such a ghost idea." ”
Wei Nong smiled and asked, "You mean stealing books?" Or do you mean that I use the sword qi to him? ”
"It's both."
Wei Nong was naturally happy, and even a little smug in his words: "I can be regarded as having a handle in my life, and it can be written on the inscription in the future - I have traveled through Kyushu and provoked King Ning." ”
It turned out that this was what she was proud of, and in the eyes of ordinary people, she had been a queen, used the four great gods, and had seen the only book of the previous dynasty...... She couldn't even look down on herself. Nie Xingji silently wrote it down in his heart, and asked with a smile: "Oh? Are these two of your biggest things in life? ”
"Of course!" Wei Nong nodded heavily.
"Then why didn't you provoke King Ning," Nie Xingji teased with a smile, "The kings, queens, regents, princes, and grandsons of the four kingdoms of Kyushu, which country have you not provoked?" ”
Wei Nong was stunned for a moment, and didn't answer immediately. Nie Xingji thought that she was thinking of Chu Li, and was thinking to herself that she was speechless, but she suddenly clapped her hands and laughed softly: "If you don't say one, there is still a son!" Prince Wei Hou! ”
She's really changed. Nie Xingji sighed secretly, but he was extremely relieved. He pretended to take a sip of tea calmly, still unable to believe that one day he would be able to eat at the same table with her, without rustiness, suspicion, suspicion, suspicion, and laughter with each other, and she even joked.
This made Nie Xingji feel for the first time that the wait was still worth it, especially after more than a year of separation, it was not a good thing.
It was rare to have such a relaxed and pleasant moment, he was really reluctant to interrupt, so he simply put down his chopsticks and continued to smile: "In my opinion, you shouldn't have sent the Shocking Sword back." How about letting King Ning exert more effort? When he finally opens the box, only to find that there is nothing, the story will surely be even more exciting. ”
Sighing slightly, "I'm doing this for the sake of Yuan Che." Otherwise, King Ning would have gone to great lengths to open the box, and in the end he would only get seven books of war, and he would definitely be angry with him. Rather than that, I took the initiative to take the name of this wicked man so that I could help him clear his mind. ”
Hearing this, Nie Xingchen felt strange in his heart, but remembering that Yuan Che was a broken sleeve, and he was much younger than Wei Nong, he didn't suspect that it was the relationship between men and women, and only asked casually: "It seems that you and Yuan Che get along well." ”
"What? Didn't Wang Tuo tell you? Wei Min raised his eyes to look at him.
Nie Xingji recalled for a moment before he said, "I only heard him say that when you were in Lidu, Yuan Che often troubled you, but he never really hurt you. This time you went up the mountain to look for a book, and you saved his life. ”
Wei Nong smiled again when he heard this: "To tell you the truth, I have lived in Wei Hou Jingdi for almost a year, and he treats me well, but his mouth is a little poisonous, and I have long been used to it." ”
She was defenseless against Yuan Che? Nie Xingji couldn't help frowning and reminded her: "You can't underestimate Yuan Che, although this person is young, he is a scheming character. ”
Wei Nong nodded: "Born in the royal family, you always have to have some scheming." Although he is domineering, his nature is not bad, and he also wants to fight for the throne. ”
Nie Xingji didn't answer, but he obviously had reservations about this evaluation and didn't agree with it.
Wei Nong didn't pay much attention to his attitude, and sighed: "His current situation is very similar to you in the past." ”
"Oh? So, you're bullish on him? ”
Since Wei Nong let go of his attitude, he also said bluntly: "It's hard to say, although his situation is like yours, his temper is too impatient, and his means are still too far behind you." ”
"Is this a compliment on me?" Nie Xingji's thin lips hooked up, his eyebrows were flying, and his eyes were like two golden arrows that wanted to be shot but not shot, and he did not hide his strong emotions.
Wei Nong lowered his eyes and stopped looking at him, re-engaged in the dishes, and did not answer positively: "King Ning is old, Qi Zhan is not as good as you." ”
Yuan Che is too far behind him, Qi Zhan is not as good as him, and King Ning is old again. What she meant by that...... It's still Yunchen. Nie Xingji's mind sank, wanting to hear what she would say about Yunchen.
However, Wei Nong brought the topic back again: "I want to ask, Yuan Che ...... Is it possible not to die? ”
At this time, Nie Xingji had already realized that Wei Nong regarded Yuan Che as a friend. For so many years, she had never spoken to an outsider and pleaded for her, and now that she was willing to speak for Yuan Che, Nie Xingji couldn't bear to disappoint her. So he was silent for a moment and replied, "I'll do my best." ”
He didn't give the right words, but he told the truth. In contrast, Wei Nong preferred Nie Xingji to make such a guarantee, because she knew that his promise was like a mountain, and since he said it, he would definitely do his best.
She actually wanted to say thank you, but she felt that it was too hypocritical, and she couldn't say it after brewing for a long time, so she had to start a topic again: "By the way, how did you find the books?" ”
"According to your 'instructions', all forty-two books have been found, and they are already on their way back." Nie Xingji smiled slightly.
Wei Nong was faintly worried: "It won't be intercepted by Ning Guo or Jiang Guo, right?" ”
"No," Nie Xingji put a lion's head in her bowl and said confidently, "Jiang Guo himself is difficult to protect, Ning Guo is slow to act, and the Maoyan River is under our control." ”
Only then did Wei Nong put his mind at ease, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Do you remember what you promised me?" ”
"Remember, the Haworthia National Focus." Nie Xingji smiled faintly: "I won't copy the copy, don't worry." ”
You won't copy copies, but you'll remember them. Wei Nong originally wanted to say this, but after all, he still didn't say it, and only nodded slightly.
*****
In October, Nie Xingji personally went out to negotiate with the Jiang people twice, and finally won the hearts of the people, drove straight across the Maoyan River, and launched a head-on confrontation with the Ning army.
Because Nie Xingji was personally in charge, the morale of the Yan army had greatly increased, and with the active assistance of the people of Jiang State, the Ning army had been forced back twenty miles. King Ning had to say that the Ning army was just here to quell the civil strife, as long as Queen Jiang nodded, the Ning army would retreat.
It happened that the news that the queen was seriously ill came from Jiang Palace, and she seemed to have made up her mind to ignore it and sit back and watch Ning Yan and the two countries fight fiercely.
Under such circumstances, Qi Zhan twice asked Ying to lead his troops, but he was pressed by King Ning. When he wanted to enter the palace for the third time, he got the news: Yingluo was pregnant.
Since Yingluo came to Lidu last year, she wanted to return to Momen several times, but her heart was too soft and she was left behind by Qi Zhan. Now that she is pregnant, it is impossible for her to leave in the future, which makes her very depressed.
And Qi Zhan was thinking about another thing, Yingluo was pregnant, he was happy, but Yingluo was not yet famous. He hesitated for a long time, originally wanted to enter the palace to invite the troops, but now he has changed to enter the palace to ask for the seal of Yingluo.
The ancestors and grandsons talked in detail for a long time, and finally King Ning promised to let Yingluo change her name and surname, give her the grade of Chenghui, and promised to "give birth to a daughter Jin Feng Liangyuan, and give birth to a boy Jin Feng Liangdi".
When Qi Zhan told Yingluo the news, unexpectedly, Yingluo became angry: "Who said I want to marry you?" What a good woman, I don't want it. ”
Qi Zhan thought she was playing a petty role, so he comforted: "If you don't marry, will you let the child be born without a name and no share?" ”
"So what? Being famous and sharing is not necessarily a good thing, all of you in the Ning royal family are weirdos, none of them are normal, I don't want my children to become like that. Yingluo covered her lower abdomen with both hands, and looked stubborn: "I will raise him myself." ”
Qi Zhan's face changed suddenly: "You want to let the child be a killer?" ”
"No," Yingluo said truthfully, "he can be whatever he wants in the future, whether it's a killer or an emperor, I won't stop him." ”
"Nonsense!" Qi Zhan was completely angry: "Do you know what you're talking about? ”
"I know," Yingluo did not show weakness, "my children cannot be at the mercy of others, I cannot marry!" ”
Qi Zhan knew that Yingluo was very stubborn and persistent, and it was because of this persistence that she pursued him for many years, starting from him as a little-known killer, until he became famous, and then sat in the position of King Ning's grandson.
He had repeatedly rejected Yingluo because he understood that Yingluo was not suitable for the court. He hadn't yet established himself, and he couldn't drag her down the mud.
However, when he really got used to this new identity, he found that it was not a big deal, and being a prince was at least much easier than the days when he licked blood from the knife in the past. Since he can adapt, maybe Yingluo can too.
But when he regretted it and wanted to turn back to her, she had changed her mind. After a year of getting along day and night, and repeatedly retaining, even if there was a skin-to-skin relationship, he could feel that Yingluo was becoming more and more dissatisfied with him.
The woman who used to speak unscrupulously, dared to love and hate, once disappeared, became silent, and became complaining. Now, he thought that the child could keep her, but he seemed to have done something wrong.
"Yingluo, this is my first child," Qi Zhan tried to convince her, "Standing at thirty, I'm not young." ”
"I don't care what you do, you want children, and more women give birth to you. My children are not bargaining chips, and I am not unfamiliar with the reputation of the eldest son. "Yingluo's attitude is very firm.
Qi Zhan understood, and his heart sank suddenly: "You want to leave?" With my kids? ”
Yingluo bit her lower lip, didn't admit it or deny it: "You know what? I like Qi Zhan, not Yuan Zhan. I am willing to give birth to you because your name is Qi Zhan; I don't want to marry because you're no longer called Qi Zhan. ”
As she spoke, the tip of Yingluo's nose was sour, but her hands firmly protected her still flat lower abdomen. The fact that she has always refused to recognize and repeatedly avoided the fact that she finally had to face because of the arrival of this child: "I'm sorry, I'm not motivated...... I want to go back. ”
Qi Zhan almost stumbled a step. Once upon a time, Yingluo had been chasing his footsteps, full of admiration; And now, she says, she's out of motivation. The only color of his life is going to leave him.
Qi Zhan's eyes suddenly turned into pitch black.
"Can't you give me another chance?" He tried to keep it.
Yingluo shook her head: "With this child, I am really enough." It's true. ”
Forgive her for being a wild rose, unable to adapt to the watering of the royal garden. She can withstand the wind, frost, rain and snow, and the dangers of the cliffs, but she can't be a docile flower and compete with other kinds.
Maybe she's right. Qi Zhan grabbed her hand and tightened it firmly, unwilling to let go: "Yingluo, I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't ......"
Yingluo turned her face away and let the tears slide down: "Yes, you're not wrong!" ”
She fell in love too early, and he refused ignorantly; She wanted to get out, but he insisted on holding on. There was nothing wrong with either of them, they just missed the time.
