Chapter 355: The Living Never Stop (4)
Wei Nong felt that since King Ning had given her a step, the best choice was to go down with the trend, after all, she was in King Ning's palace right now, and the consequences of being too tough would be her own loss. This can be regarded as a temporary reassurance pill for each other, although she doesn't know how long this reassuring pill will last.
She looked down at the pamphlet again: "What if I don't agree with this above things?" Are you still putting me under house arrest? Kill me? β
"For the sake of the relationship between the two countries, not for the time being," King Ning said calmly, "If you don't agree, Gu will let you go back, after all, Gu invited you here." However, if there is any 'accident' on your way back to China, you will be alone. β
"Huh! Thanks for the reminder. Wei Nong picked up the pamphlet on the table, turned around and walked out.
Today, she and King Ning each took a step back, although it was a tie, but she also knew in her heart that the reason why she was able to get away with a draw in front of King Ning, the old fox, was nothing more than because King Ning told her Nie Xingji's life experience. If the next confrontation is made, King Ning proposes a new countermeasure, she will inevitably lose.
When he pushed the door and walked out of the main hall, the cold wind whistled, and Wei Nong found that a layer of cold sweat had broken out in his palms, and the booklet in his hand was wet.
*****
King Ning watched Wei Nong walk out of the hall until he glanced at Yuan Che and rubbed the corners of his forehead: "This girl is more difficult to deal with than I imagined." β
Yuan Che didn't dare to say anything good for Wei Nong, lest he do a disservice, so he only said, "She...... Quite assertive. β
"Lone really regretted telling her the truth! Teach her to pinch a handle! King Ning slammed the table again.
But this is also an unsolvable problem, if he doesn't tell Nie Xingji's life experience, he can't openly propose the reunification of the two countries. If you want to succeed, you must make a fuss about family affection and blood, otherwise the two countries will have to fight, and things will not be even at all.
Yuan Che wanted to comfort King Ning for a few words, or mediate from it, but he asked himself that he had no qualifications at all, after all, today's incident hit him too hard. After thinking about it, he didn't know what to do, but when he looked up, he saw King Ning's eyes staring at him, and there seemed to be some thought flashing in his vicissitudes of life, with a taste of calculation.
Yuan Che felt a little nervous inexplicably: "Grandfather Wang......"
As soon as he opened his mouth, King Ning raised his hand to stop him: "It's not too late to talk about your affairs later." King Ning pointed out the door as he spoke: "Go, treat the Yanlan County Lord for Gu." β
"Yes...... Yes......" Yuan Che didn't know why King Ning gave this order. But he really wanted to see Wei Nong, so he couldn't help but ask no more questions, and hurriedly walked out of the main hall of the holy study and caught up with Wei Nong's footsteps.
At this time, the Wei Nong people had already arrived at the side hall and were discussing something with Ji Fengzhi in a low voice.
Yuan Che hesitated and walked over, and called in a low voice: "Slightly thick......"
Holding the pamphlet tightly in his thick hand, he turned to look at him: "You still dare to see me?" You're not afraid I'll kill you? β
Yuan Che shook his head: "You just said Yunchen in the palace...... I knew you were going to find out. β
"It turns out that my resentment against Yunchen is so big, even you can hear it." Wei Nong didn't know who he was laughing at.
Yuan Che lowered his head and did not answer.
Wei Nong brushed his thoughts for a moment, tried his best to keep calm and asked him, "Why didn't you tell your grandfather the truth?" You're being taken advantage of. β
Hearing this, Yuan Che blamed himself for the first time: "Wrong is wrong, if I can calm down, I won't be used by them." This thing...... The more I say it, the more wrong it becomes, so it's better not to say it. β
Could this be what Yuan Che said? He actually chose to carry this matter down himself? Wei Nong suddenly felt that he didn't know him.
Yuan Che saw that Weinong looked at himself with strange eyes, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You must think I'm crazy, I think too." I said I regret it now, do you believe me? β
Slightly thick groaned, and asked rhetorically: "Do you regret that you were too impulsive and were caught?" Or do you regret killing them? β
"I regret it." Yuan Che lowered his head and said sincerely.
"That's what you think?" When Wei Nong asked this sentence, his tone was unconsciously soft.
Yuan Che nodded heavily: "If I knew that Nie Xingji was my cousin, I wouldn't ...... At that time, I saw Qi Zhan blocking the knife for him, and I felt strange in my heart...... Now I realized that I was the stupidest one, who had been exposed to the light of others and didn't know it, and was used like a fool......"
"Qi Zhan ...... He...... He did it better than me. Yuan Che's eyes gradually turned red, and he choked up ashamedly: "He is more generous than me, more ...... than me." Atmospheric than me. β
When Wei Nong heard this, he was really emotional. The Yuan Che she knew had finally matured, but the price was too heavy for anyone to afford.
She didn't know what to say, the memories of laughing and scolding and supporting each other between her and Yuan Che were all covered by the shadow of this incident, and she couldn't treat him as a friend anymore.
"In the future, you can do it yourself." She had nothing to say to him, only this one.
"You don't hate me anymore?" Yuan Che's eyes immediately glowed, it was the light of hope and the light of longing.
Wei Nong shook his head: "You can't be blamed for the fault, if he wasn't poisoned, you might not be able to kill him...... I don't hate you, but I can't forgive either. β
Suddenly, the brilliance in Yuan Che's eyes went out: "Slightly dense ......"
"The price is too painful for me to let go, maybe in a long time, but not now." Wei Nong slowly closed her eyes, facing Yuan Che, she really didn't know what to say: "It's still that sentence, you can do it yourself!" β
"You...... Will you go to Yunchen for revenge? Yuan Che couldn't help but ask.
"It's none of your business." Wei Nong clenched the booklet in his hand and looked down at the ground: "This is not something you should worry about. β
Yuan Che showed a deep concern: "You must not do it yourself!" If you really want revenge, ...... Just tell Grandfather Wang the truth, and he will ...... for you."
"Is there anything strange about the table in the Holy Study?" Wei Nong interrupted him abruptly and asked thoughtlessly.
Yuan Che was stunned for a moment, and then he realized what she was referring to, and after thinking for a moment, he still replied truthfully: "There is a groove in the middle of the table, which is usually blocked by the play, but it is actually a hidden switch on the east and west walls." β
"Thank you." Wei Nong finally looked up at him and asked coldly, "Did King Ning ask you to bring the talk?" I'll leave if I don't have any words. β
"Where can you go? If you don't give an opinion on the matter of reunification, Grandfather Wang will not let you leave at all. At this point, Yuan Che suddenly lowered his voice: "Also, you must not make him angry again, even if you have an opinion, you must temporarily agree first, at least return to Yan Kingdom safely!" β
Wei Nong was not afraid at all: "Since I am here, I am fully prepared." β
"You don't know him......" Yuan Che wanted to remind him again.
"I understand what you mean," Wei Nong interrupted him, "There are different families and different positions, so in case your grandfather Wang wants to trouble you again, it is better for you to stay away from me." β
"Slightly thick......" Yuan Che looked at her pitifully, hoping to get a trace of her forgiveness.
But Wei Nong had nothing to say to him, her mood was so complicated, the more she hated him, the clearer the days of suffering together appeared in front of her, but she couldn't escape the fact of Nie Xingji and Qi Zhan's deaths.
Maybe she was too naΓ―ve in the past, how could two people with different families and countries, two people who are not ordinary, become friends? No matter how hard they tried, the situation forced them to oppose each other.
Wei Nong didn't want to look at him anymore, so he had to turn around to find Ji Fengzhi, and just as he was about to ask the last sentence, he saw that the old eunuch had already come over, and said to Wei Nong: "The king has just ordered, you and Mr. Ji have temporarily lived in the palace for the past few days, and you have specially set up Penglai Pavilion for you two to live." β
"What about the definition of our country? Where does he live? Wei Nong asked directly.
The old eunuch didn't hide it: "In the Qingxin Palace." β
"Are they far apart?"
"Penglai Pavilion is on the northeast side, and Qingxin Hall is in the southwest."
Scold! That is the entire Ning Palace, it seems that King Ning is not willing to do any face-saving work. Wei Nong began to exert her skills of "righteous words" again, and deliberately found fault: "It's really ridiculous, my courtiers of Dayan came to visit, and they still lived at two ends?" What does King Ning mean? Spread it out and don't be afraid of falling into the mouth? β
The old eunuch had already comprehended the slightly thick speech, and this time he was not fooled at all: "The county lord misunderstood, it was because the definition Hou was old and liked to be quiet, so he deliberately chose the Qingxin Palace." As you know from the name, it's a great place for meditation. β
As soon as Wei Nong heard this, he immediately noticed something unusual, and this abnormality is called "protection". It seems that Definition Hou has already stood on King Ning's side, and King Ning is afraid that she will harm Definition Hou, so he deliberately separates them from each other.
Wei Nong decided to try it: "Oh? Is it? So what's so good about Penglai Pavilion? β
The old eunuch's face did not change: "Penglai Pavilion is much wider than the Qingxin Palace, adjacent to Lanyue Tower, the scenery of the first floor of the pavilion is beautiful, and there is quite a fairy atmosphere around. You'll see it when you see it. β
"This palace is a layman, and he is not used to living in a place where the fairy spirit is ethereal. The father-in-law went to report that the palace wanted to live near the Qingxin Palace, so that it was convenient to find the Marquis at any time. Wei Nong spoke openly.
The old eunuch stood still, and replied with a smile: "The king said that you, Mr. Ji, and Master Yun are all cold people, and it is most suitable to live in such a place. Master Yun chose Lanyue Tower, so Penglai Pavilion will be opened to you and Mr. Ji. β
It turns out that Yunchen is also under "house arrest", which is a bit interesting. Wei Nong finally stopped objecting, and said, "Then ask your father-in-law to lead the way." β
The old eunuch bowed and saluted back: "The old slave will arrange to send you over, but Mr. Ji should be slow, the king is waiting to see him." β
