"It's useless to say anything now." The eldest princess did not waver in the slightest when she heard this: "Whether Twilight Hao is sincere or false, Nie Xingyi and Jin Cheng are here." What else is there to say? ”

The eldest princess raised her empty wrist to support her chin, and then smiled: "After Nie Xingyi succeeded to the throne, Dusk Hao was reused, and he frequently entered and exited the palace. I always thought it was your light, but I didn't expect the truth to be so dirty. ”

"It's me who gets naked." Wei Nong no longer concealed it, and replied truthfully: "Actually, I have already annoyed Nie Xingyi, but he has never killed me. He was afraid that the definition Hou would lose his identity as a 'national master' and would not be able to be reused by him justifiably. ”

Since ancient times, the career of the horse is limited, but the country is different. Obviously, Helian Biyue and Nie Xingyi are well versed in this.

"Then you should thank the king." The eldest princess sighed faintly: "It was he who gave you this identity and indirectly saved your life." ”

"yes." Wei Nong nodded, and couldn't help but sigh at the coincidence and wonder of fate. Gaozong Nie Yang was able to arrange such an identity for her without knowing it, so as to help her escape the catastrophe.

This also explains why Helian Biyue looks at her differently and repeatedly tolerates her - "Queen Destiny" is certainly an important reason; But more importantly, because she became the daughter of the Definition Hou, she could make the Definition Hou a righteous and obedient ruler; Perhaps, there is also guilt for Twilight Yanlan.

"Everything is fate." The eldest princess got up slowly as she spoke, and she couldn't even say a word of farewell, and left Weiyang Palace with staggering steps.

A loving couple for more than 30 years has experienced countless ups and downs in the court, and they originally supported each other and trusted each other, but they ended up like this. But what made Wei Wei sigh was that the eldest princess would rather be a broken jade than a complete tile, and insisted on separating from the definition of Hou.

Looking at her back as she gradually moved away, a wave of sadness and sadness surged into my heart. Once upon a time, the eldest princess was such a radiant person, full of extravagance; And at this moment, looking at her back, she is already like a dying old woman.

The word love is really hurtful.

Tonight is called a small banquet, but it is just a conversation. The delicacies on this table were hardly touched, but not a drop of wine was left. Wei Nong didn't have much appetite to eat, so he got up and called Xiaoxin in, and said, "It's all cleaned up, I want to change clothes and rest." ”

"This ......" Xiaoxin hesitated a little: "His Royal Highness Jinghou has been waiting for you outside for an hour." ”

"Waited so long." Slightly thick emotions are indistinguishable.

"Your Highness knows that you are comforting the eldest princess and will not let you disturb you." Xiaoxin secretly glanced at the outside of the hall: "Why don't you let His Highness come in and sit?" What if he has something important? ”

He groaned for a moment, and his hesitation flashed: "Please let him in." ”

Xiaoxin hurriedly took the order and ran out to spread the word, but Xu Yu ran back again and ordered someone to clean up the cold rice and cold dishes on the table. The palace maids in this side were walking out with plates, and Nie Xingji in the other side had already stepped in, and when they saw that the dishes in the hands of the palace maids were almost untouched, they couldn't help frowning deeply.

Wei Nong didn't mean to get up to salute, and sat in place and raised his eyes to look at him: "It's late at night, are you in trouble?" It's still the same detached tone.

Nie Xingji had long been accustomed to this, and sat down directly opposite Wei Nong. He sniffed the residual smell of pure brew in the air, and said with a smile: "The food hasn't moved, and I drank a lot of wine?" ”

Wei Nong also pulled the corners of his lips: "What, no?" ”

"After all, you are poisoned, you have to pay attention to your body." Nie Xingji took the opportunity to answer.

Wei Nong didn't refute the defense, but he didn't know what to say, so he had to tell Xiaoxin: "Give His Highness some wine and food." Late at night, tea is free. ”

Xiaoxin had already ordered to go down, but she still made a pretense and received the order. Instead, Nie Xingchen smiled when he heard this: "Are you caring about me?" ”

Wei Nong's expression was stunned, quite confused: "What did I say?" ”

Nie Xingji didn't say anything more.

The candles in the hall illuminated the dark night, as if a light veil was spread between the two. This seemingly indescribable estrangement is indescribable, and it seems to be dyed with a trace of ambiguity, which can be broken when poked.

"Is there something wrong?" Wei Nong asked again.

"I have some questions for you." Nie Xingji said bluntly.

Weimin chuckled: "Qiao, I also have something to ask you." ”

"You speak first." Nie Xingji said in a low voice.

"I have too many questions, so let's ask them first!" Slightly thick to give a step.

Nie Xingji was not polite, and asked directly the suspicion in his heart: "Do you know the assassin of that day?" ”

On the day of Nie Xingyi's birthday banquet, Qi Zhan, the world's most famous killer, came to assassinate. As far as he knew, Qi Zhan was ruthless, at that time, Wei Nong was pushed by Nie Xingyi, and he was about to hit the blade, but Qi Zhan withdrew his strength alive, and even did not hesitate to leak the flaws in his birth method.

Also, he observed carefully in secret, and Qi Zhan looked at the slightly thick eyes at that time, which was clearly full of shock-the two of them knew each other before.

However, Wei Nong did not reply to him, only asked, "That assassin, did you find it?" ”

"Sort of!" Nie Xingji admitted frankly: "He is very cautious, and the asking price is also high, so he easily does not accept business from strangers. I also found him through a relationship. ”

"What is his identity? What is it called? ”

"Qi Zhan, the number one killer of Momen."

"Killer?" Wei Nong was a little puzzled: "What about his age?" ”

Nie Xingji shook his head: "I haven't dealt with him head-on, I only know that he became famous as a young man and has been in the rivers and lakes for a long time." The specific age is unknown, but judging by his skills, he will not be more than forty years old. ”

Wei Nong listened to these messages, pondered for a long time, and then said: "I don't know any killers, maybe I saw them when I walked the dart before." ”

Nie Xingji didn't ask any more questions, in fact, he knew that he was asking too much. Maybe Wei Nong really didn't know Qi Zhan, or maybe she deliberately concealed it. He thought about it for a while, and turned to care about her body: "Have you vomited blood again these days?" ”

"No, it's just that I'm getting more and more afraid of the cold." Wei Nong just drank some wine, and at this moment, his face was red and slightly drunk, a little more cold than usual, and he looked even more delicate.

Her look is what Nie Xingji is most familiar with. When they first met in Fangzhou, she was like this. Only later, he lost her.

"Tomorrow Lian Kuo will come to treat you." Nie Xingji put away his thoughts at the right time and remembered the most important thing.

Wei Nong didn't realize that death was near, or that she didn't care about life and death anymore. She couldn't say it clearly, in short, she didn't have the slightest trepidation in her heart, and she only bowed her head slightly about Nie Xingji's concern: "Thank you." ”

Nie Xingji was about to open his mouth to answer, when he suddenly remembered Xiaoxin's voice outside, it was the wine and food ready. Xiaoxin led a few palace maids inside, put eight cold, eight hot and sixteen dishes one by one, as well as two pots of good wine, and Shi Shiran led the people to retire.

Originally, the table was empty, and it seemed that the two were far away; And now that the food and drinks are served, they are getting closer to each other, and the atmosphere doesn't seem to be too awkward. Nie Xingji took the initiative to remove a pot of wine and said, "You have drunk a lot tonight, why don't you watch me drink it." ”

Wei Nong was no longer used to eating at the same table with him, and felt a little awkward: "Nie Xingji, I want to leave Jingzhou." She picked one of the most inappropriate times to bring it up.

Nie Xingji didn't seem to hear it, his expression remained unchanged, he poured himself a drink, and asked, "Don't you have a question to ask?" ”

Wei Nong had to sigh, thinking about the various questions that had been circling in his heart for a long time, and asked, "Ming Chongyuan's death, are you to blame?" ”

"Yes." Nie Xingji smiled lightly and took another drink: "What else do I want to ask?" ”

"Then your assassination in Chudi was also led by yourself?"

"It's not. The Ming clan did send someone to stab me, and it was Helian Biyue who instigated it, but he didn't hurt the vital point. Nie Xingji was honest and frank: "My injury was caused by the people of Jiang Guo, and they intended it to be Chu Heng." ”

"And then you made a mistake and set up a wrong game, taking the opportunity to bring down the Ming clan?" Wei Nong understood.

Nie Xingji nodded: "They are innocent of death." ”

"Does Ming Danshu know the truth?"

"She should have guessed."

Wei Nong was incredible: "Then she is still willing to help you?" For the sake of the love between men and women, even ignore the family feud? ”

"That's what she has to offer, and it's what she deserves." Nie Xingji commented.

She was slightly stunned, remembering that two hours ago, she had just said the same thing, and the object of her evaluation was sitting in front of her at the moment.

"So you should rest assured, a woman like Ming Danshu can be used, but I won't like it." Nie Xingji deliberately said it to Wei Nong, but he didn't want to talk deeply, so he immediately continued: You have already asked four questions, is there anything else? ”

Wei Nong confronted him calmly, she knew that he would not lie to her tonight. So, the one thing that was in my heart was also urgently blurted out: "At Nie Xingyi's birthday banquet, I said a few words to Shen Jue and knew something...... Why did you send me to kiss back then? ”

Nie Xingji's hand holding the cup froze, and then let go of the wine glass: "What did you hear Shen Jue say?" ”

"Nothing." Wei Nong avoided it, lowered his eyes and said softly: "I want to hear you say, tell the truth." ”

"I thought you'd never ask." Nie Xingji laughed again, not knowing whether it was self-deprecation or something.

He froze, his eyes rippling, and the explanations that had been brewing for a long time could not wait for her to question. But at this moment, he didn't know how to say it, what should he do to heal the scars he brought to her and fill the gap between them?

"Why did you send you to ...... with your relatives," Nie Xingjian said in a distant tone, "I am also very painful to know that you are the daughter of my father." I thought that you and I could avoid it, but then I found out that it was not possible, and I would return to the palace every year in the future, and we would inevitably meet. ”

"Moreover, I found out that you are not doing well in the palace, in just two months, you have lost a lot of weight." Nie Xingchen recalled, and it hurt once: "Helian Biyue bullied you, and Jincheng looked down on you...... I'm distressed. ”

"So you recommended me and my relatives to help me get out of the sea of suffering?" Wei Min interjected.

"No, not exactly." Nie Xingji worded for a moment: "One, we are farther away, so we can forget each other; Second, I also hope to give you a good home. (The Imperial Profession is entangled. /22/22327/)--
