Chapter 43: Falling Short

Dongxue knew that although this Xia Yu's brain turned slower, her mouth was very strict, and if she didn't want to say it, she really couldn't get anything out of it by all means. However, she reminded herself that if Xia Yu knew about Xu Shaoqing, then Chunfeng and Qiushuang and others naturally knew about it. How could they know about Xu Shaoqing? Is it just because he was an official in Bac Ninh? Impossible, if the reason is really like this, Xia Yu will not dodge his eyes, there must be something he doesn't know.

With narrowing of her eyes, Dong Xue suddenly loosened her grip on Xia Yu, picked up the calligraphy and painting, pretended to be casual, and said, "I'm just like you, I've just heard of this guy's name and admired his talent." I just teased you, I want to see if you're still that timid. ”

The corners of his mouth twitched, Xia Yu patted his chest and said, "Then you are really scared of people." I thought this person had a grudge against you, and I couldn't even mention it. Okay, okay, I don't remember the villain, let's continue to work. It's just that next time you can't be so scary. ”

With his back to the winter snow of the summer rain, his face was expressionless, but his dark eyes revealed a touch of fierceness.

After listening to Xia Yu's description, Bai Lilan couldn't help but cover her forehead helplessly, and sighed: "Xia Yu, can you be a little more stupid?" ”

"Niangniang, the slave knows it's wrong," Xia Yu lowered her head reproachfully and whispered, "I really didn't have any precautions at the time, so I blurted it out." You didn't see Dongxue's eyes, and the slave was sure that she knew something. You say, what should we do now? ”

Changing the palm of her other hand to support her chin, Bai Lilan said a little listlessly: "What else can I do, I can only take one step at a time, don't let Dong Xue be suspicious." ”

"But what if she's playing with a slave?" Xia Yu said with some frustration, "If I am unprepared, I will definitely accidentally fall into her way, isn't it easy to make the previous efforts fall short?" ”

"Even if you fail, it's nothing, do you look like you've succeeded on the left wind's side?" Speaking of Zuo Xiangfeng, Baili Lan seemed to be angry and indisputable, and said, "I have provided him with such good conditions, but I can't even capture Dongxue's heart." Isn't he smart, and where is all that cleverness used! This twisted melon is not sweet, maybe they are really not suitable for being together. ”

After listening to Bai Lilan's words, Chun Feng caressed his chin and analyzed: "Actually, it is not accurate to say that Dongxue's attitude towards the left wind has not changed at all. Two days ago, I saw Dongxue personally boiling pills for Zuo Xiangfeng. That thing is a careful job, and Dongxue has always been afraid of trouble, if she really has no intention of Zuo Xiangfeng, why would she do such a thing herself? After all, she still has a trace of concern for Zuo Xiangfeng. What's more, Dongxue is not a cold-hearted person, and after such a long period of contact, there will be some feelings. ”

"Hey, say okay for a while, say no for a while, what are we going to do now?" Xia Yu fiddled with his long sleeves very tangled, and muttered, "I don't think it was so difficult when the spring breeze found Ruyi Langjun." ”

"Maybe it's a good thing." Bai Lilan was tired from sitting, so she stood up and walked around, looking at the more and more lush world outside the window, and said with emotion, "It's really hard to be a matchmaker for others." ”

"Since it's hard, don't do it, I'll feel sorry for you and the child." Nangong Jingchen didn't know what to do and walked behind Baili Lan, hugged her gently from behind, his voice was full of pampering and pampering, and asked softly, "Your body is getting heavier and heavier now, you should take a good rest, don't always think cranky, you know?" These girls have their own way to go, and you always arrange it for them, so how do you know what they want? ”

Baili Lan turned sideways, leaned her head on Nangong Jingchen's chest, and said with a smile: "If I am stumped by these little questions, then I am not Bai Li Lan." But you're right, the girls do have their way to go, and I should be too arbitrary. It's just that Dongxue has already made a mistake, and I don't want her to continue to waste time. ”

"Dongxue has ever had someone you like?" Nangong Jingchen couldn't help laughing, lightly imprinted his lips on Bai Lilan's ear, and whispered affectionately and gently, "Who is that person?" ”

"It was Xu Shaoqing from Bac Ninh back then." Looking up at Nangong Jingchen, Bai Lilan asked, "Do you have an impression of this person?" ”

"Xu Shaoqing......" Nangong Jingchen said after reading the name, "I have an impression of this person." What, Dongxue likes him? Unlikely, did the two of them ever know each other? ”

"You don't know that. When Dongxue was young, he was once rescued by Xu Shaoqing. After that, she followed her master to learn martial arts, and Xu Shaoqing had a smooth career. Many years later, Dongxue met Xu Shaoqing in the palace in Bac Ninh, and unknowingly, she had a deep love for Xu Shaoqing. If they have a good feeling for each other, I will fulfill them as well. But I asked the people from Baixiangmen to go out to investigate, and they got the news that Xu Shaoqing had married a wife, and Dongxue also knew, so they completely cut off the possibility between them. ”

"Xu Shaoqing, take a wife?" After listening to Baili Lan's words, Nangong Jingchen's expression suddenly became very strange, and he seemed to be very surprised, but he felt that it was not appropriate to do so, so he flattened his face again, shook his head and said, "No matter who Xu Shaoqing marries, Dongxue can't marry him." ”

"That's natural, and I'm not going to let my people do things that hurt other people's feelings." Bai Lilan looked straight at Nangong Jingchen and asked a little strangely, "What was your expression just now?" Hey, do you know anything else? ”

Finger pointed at the tip of Baili Lan's nose, Nangong Jingchen smiled: "I really can't hide anything from you." In fact, when I heard you mention Xu Shaoqing just now, the first thing that came to mind was not the unjust case that shocked the government and the opposition in Beining, but a confused incident that was a long-cherished incident back then. ”

"Does this matter still have anything to do with Shu Yiling?" Bai Lilan tried hard to recall, and found that Xu Shaoqing did not exist in her memory, so she looked at Nangong Jingchen and asked, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"You should have heard of Su Yiling's preference for men," sitting on the soft couch with Bai Lilan in his arms, Nangong Jingchen recalled the past of the year, with a hint of emotion in his tone, and said slowly, "At the beginning, Su Yiling still had some scruples, this kind of thing can only be done secretly, and he ordered someone to find some beautiful civilian teenagers to satisfy his **." But since his father was in a coma and couldn't manage the government, he had no scruples, and Xu Shaoqing was the prey he had coveted for a long time. I don't know the specific things about this, I only know that in order to occupy Xu Shaoqing, Shu Yiling ordered someone to castrate him, so that he could not marry a wife, and he had no shame to mention this matter in front of others. ”

"What!?" Bai Lilan looked shocked and angry, clenched the handrail and said angrily, "Su Yiling, this scumbag, how can you be such a bastard!" It was so cheap to let him die like that back then! ”

Holding Baili Lan's hand soothingly, Nangong Jingchen comforted: "Don't be too angry, be careful of the child in your belly." Actually, I heard the news by chance. Wang Han is also half of Xu Shaoqing's teacher, and they are also teachers and friends, knowing that Xu Shaoqing was wronged by Shu Yiling, he was very upset for him, so he told me about this matter in front of me, hoping that I could get justice for him. It's a pity that my wings were not full at that time, and although I couldn't wait to bring Su Yiling to justice immediately, I could only wait for the time to be ripe before I could catch them all. Fortunately, Shu Yiling has been crushed to pieces, and he has repaid the people he once hurt with blood. ”

"It's just broken bones, so how can it be enough!" Bai Lilan said hatefully, "He has committed heinous crimes against so many people, he should be punished with all kinds of capital punishment, and let him taste all kinds of pain!" ”

"He's dead, so why be angry with a dead man?" Nangong Jingchen stopped Baili Lan's shoulder and coaxed softly, "Let's think about it, how to persuade Dongxue." That girl can admit to death, if she knows the true situation of Xu Shaoqing, she doesn't know what to do. So we still have to hide this from her. ”

Leaning back slowly, Baili Lan's face was heavy, and she said, "You're right, Dongxue's girl is confirmed to be dead." It's just that she still has Xu Shaoqing in her heart, if she keeps remembering him, then no matter how good a man is standing in front of her, she won't think about it, so won't this life be delayed? It is said that the bell must be tied to the bell, do you want to find Xu Shaoqing and ask him to say something, so that Dongxue will die? ”

"Do you think he married an ordinary wife, didn't he want Dongxue to die?"

Hearing this, Baili Lan suddenly looked at Nangong Jingchen and said, "You mean, Xu Shaoqing has always known about the existence of Dongxue?" This...... If things are really like this, then Xu Shaoqing is really a thoughtful guy. After so many years, what does he think of Dongxue's feelings for him? ”

"This kind of thing is only clear to the parties involved, even if we think about it, we can't see anything." Kissing Baili Lan's forehead lightly, Nangong Jingchen looked at her frowning, and couldn't help but feel distressed and said, "Okay, don't always worry about these things." I've been busy with too many things lately, so I've neglected to take care of you, and it's really distressing to see you lose weight. ”

"But the winter snow ......"

"Don't worry, if Xu Shaoqing really has winter snow in his heart, then he will definitely agree to our suggestion and cooperate. If he is a selfish person, then we can be regarded as having a fair and honest reason, just to take the opportunity to keep him away from the winter snow, disappear silently, and never have the opportunity to see her again in this life. ”
