Chapter 22 Then to Khotan
Long Xiao's words can be regarded as talking about the weakness of the two. Not only did Jia Qianqian dare not bet, but even Long Jie did not dare to gamble. With Long Xiao's cold-blooded, extreme and extreme character, what did he dare not do? My father felt guilty about him because of what happened in the past, and he had always been very tolerant of him, so he would really punish him severely because of this? Long Jie was not sure at all.
Jia Qianqian, who was supposed to be roaring angrily, smiled unexpectedly: "You are just driving this son away now, and this son is not leaving." Anyway, I'm penniless now, and I follow you to eat and drink spicy food, and there are free bodyguards, where can I find such a good thing? Okay, Ben Gongzi is going to eat, as for Long Jie, who boiled your medicine before, or who did it find to boil it, and then let Ben Gongzi boil it for you, I'm afraid that your body will not be good in this life. After saying that, ignoring the stunned two, he turned around and went into the house to eat the things that the guards had bought.
Long Jie looked at Jia Qianqian, who entered the house, his eyes were full of puzzlement. Why is Jia Qianqian now becoming more and more incomprehensible to him? If the incident with Ma Ruyun made her angry, she still smiled at herself. If she doesn't mind, it is also self-deception, she seems to have closed her true feelings, and the love between him and her has been written off.
After dinner, Jia Qianqian was staying in the house where he lived, and the door was knocked a few times. Jia Qianqian went to open the door and saw Long Jie standing outside, "Third prince, it's so late, is there something wrong?" β
Long Jie hated to hear her call himself the third prince the most, and that tone seemed to be that he and her were not even friends anymore. Long Jie didn't speak, he came in directly, and closed the door with his backhand.
When Jia Qianqian saw Long Jie's expression, she suddenly felt a little flustered, she was afraid of getting along with Long Jie alone, she was afraid that her dusty feelings would be opened.
Long Jie used his intact left arm to hug Jia Qianqian tightly into his arms without saying a word. Rubbing his chin against her sideburns, he closed his eyes, and his voice was hoarse and low, "Qianqian, don't torture me anymore, the incident between Kaixian and Ma Ruyun was really not what you saw and known." That Ma Ruyun is actually an official prostitute in Qizhou Lichun Courtyard, if you don't believe it, I will take you to Qizhou Lichun Courtyard in the future to see. She was the emperor's brother who asked Ma Zhixian to seduce me and separate the two of us. β
Jia Qianqian snuggled in this familiar embrace, and the suppressed love emotion was almost uncontrollable, and she couldn't help but want to hug him. However, when I recalled rushing into Ma Ruyun's room and seeing the scene of Long Jie and her turning clouds and rain, my heart was really not good. Seduce? Hehe, if Ma Ruyun is really the daughter of Ma Zhixian, then isn't she also successful in seducing? Then you Long Jie can kick her away with the same kick as if nothing happened?
Breaking free from Long Jie's embrace, Jia Qianqian raised a smile, "Third Prince, after my brain was hit, I don't remember many things, and I'm becoming more and more like an idiot." However, I'm not interested in men right now, so you better stay away from me, don't just hug me casually, even if I don't have the strength to resist you, there is still Long Xiao to support, I believe he doesn't want to see me and you pulling and pulling. β
Long Jie's face instantly became gloomy, and that gaze seemed to be able to kill people, "Are you really empathetic and fall in love with that ruthless, cold-blooded monster?" β
Jia Qianqian put away her smile, glared at him without fear, and said word by word: "Remember, I don't like the two of you, I can't wait to stay away from you, in the future, be polite and respectful to me, and I will get along with you like a friend, otherwise, you are a transparent person in my eyes, and I will turn a blind eye to you." Don't think that you saved me, I will be grateful to you, recalling the happy days in Anyang City before, and now being kidnapped and robbed by you, threatening and coerced, it is really better to die. β
In fact, when he said these words, Jia Qianqian's heart was dripping blood. All along, Long Jie has saved her repeatedly, and he was beaten after winning money in Wei County, and he saved her; In the cave where Cloud String was introduced, he carried himself off the cliff; was almost robbed and humiliated by Gu Weicheng in the valley outside the Swordless Villa, but he came to the rescue in time; In Khotan, he was almost forced to marry the old patriarch, but he saved it; Even on the front line of the battle between the two armies, he still risked ten thousand arrows piercing his heart and rushed to the city wall to save him. But now, she can't open her heart to love him, not only Ma Ruyun's business, but also the moody, ruthless, and all-doing Long Xiao around her. Long Xiao has already announced that he will tie himself to his side for the rest of his life, and now, his parents don't say anything in his hands, since he can design in Kaixian County to let Long Jie be lured and make himself sad, who knows how he will deal with Long Jie in the future?
Thinking of this, Jia Qianqian's head lowered, no matter whether Long Jie had withstood the temptation or not, he was indeed more kind to himself. "Long Jie, don't force me, let's get along like friends like this, and we'll talk about other things later."
After speaking, he reached out and carefully tied the loose strip of cloth on Long Jie's right arm.
Seeming to feel the contradiction and helplessness of Jia Qianqian's emotions, Long Jie's left hand stroked her cheek and said in a deep voice: "Qianqian, I will use my actions to change all this." "Yes, only by rescuing her parents from Long Xiao's hands, only by giving her back the happy life she used to have, and only by letting her see Ma Ruyun with her own eyes, no, the true face of Begonia, can she untie all her knots.
Jia Qianqian stared at him, and suddenly had the urge to leave everything behind and throw himself into his arms, this man has an irresistible charm on his body.
At this time, the door was kicked open, and Long Xiao appeared in front of the two like a ghost.
"Jia Qianqian, if you have the habit of staying with a man in the middle of the night in the future, I don't mind throwing you into the barracks." This man, the expression of jealousy is also different. Jia Qianqian was completely speechless.
"Hmph, Brother Huang, you'd better figure it out, I brought Qianqian back from Khotan, and Qianqian has always been in love with me, if you hadn't asked Ma Zhixian to make a beauty, how could we have a misunderstanding? You can threaten her parents to stay with you, but you don't have the power to stop her from liking anyone, right? Long Jie was naturally not to be outdone.
Long Xiao said coldly: "By my side, you must obediently don't make me angry, otherwise... β
Jia Qianqian pushed the two of them out violently, "You two get out, I'm going to sleep." "Alas! I actually want to face the two of them indifferently, and I want to live happily without being affected by the two of them, but I really think too naΓ―ve, unless I cultivate to the realm of saints.
The next day, according to the predetermined plan, Long Xiao took Jia Qianqian, his guide and a dozen elite soldiers, and secretly marched to Khotan. In order to prevent Nie Wuzheng from kidnapping Qianqian again, the group of people were all dressed as vendors, and Long Xiao put on a big fox fur hat to cover most of the scars on his face, and if he didn't look carefully, he really couldn't recognize him.
Jia Qianqian also looked like a small trader, riding on a horse, and his thoughts were like a tide. I think that when I was in Wujian Villa, it was because I learned to ride a horse and got lost that I ran into Gu Weicheng, the villain, and therefore disturbed the martial arts rookie competition hosted by Shangguan Lei. In retrospect, those things seem to have happened in a lifetime.
Long Jie and Long Xiao rode horses, one on the left and one on the right, guarding her. Vigilantly watched the movements around him to prevent Nie Wuzheng's men and horses from intercepting them. It didn't take long for Jia Qianqian to find that this journey was really boring. Let's chat with Long Jie, and Long Xiao's face will be more gloomy and colder. Let's talk to Long Xiao, this big ice cube, basically just listen to it. Jia Qianqian finally rode on the horse and kept eating snacks, which made Long Jie shake his head, admiring her little mouth for eating.
After entering Khotan, seeing the familiar grassland, Jia Qianqian was in a trance for a while. Alas! After losing his memory, he wandered on the grassland with Uzgul for more than two months, and if it weren't for Long Jie's unremitting search, he might have stayed in Khotan forever. Suddenly, Jia Qianqian was also shocked by his ruthlessness towards Long Jie, even if he couldn't forgive him and Ma Ruyun, even if he couldn't love him, he should help him ascend to the crown prince and repay his former affection.
So, that night, when the caravan stayed in a large tribal settlement, Jia Qianqian took advantage of Long Xiao's inattention, secretly pulled Long Jie aside, and whispered: "Long Jie, I remember the whereabouts of the scepter, you find an opportunity to kidnap me, so that Long Xiao doesn't blame me and doesn't take my parents out of anger." β
Long Jie's eyes suddenly lit up, and his spirits were uplifted. Not only because of the whereabouts of the scepter, but more importantly, Qianqianken helped him like this, which shows that her heart is still towards him. couldn't help but hug her again: "Qianqian, as long as you forgive me and love me again, even if you give the scepter to the imperial brother, I am willing."
Jia Qianqian hurriedly broke free from him, if Long Xiao found out, it would be troublesome. Along the way, as long as he said a few more words to Long Jie, his face would be even colder, and at the critical moment, it was better not to anger him.
According to Long Xiao's plan, they had to find Uzgul first and make sure that when she rescued Jia Qianqian from being unconscious, she didn't see the scepter. Then inquire and search the tribes near Langhe Mountain to see if there are any signs of the scepter.
This time, the subordinates who came to Khotan, except for Long Xiao's two close guards, the rest of the people were all Yang Tingshan's subordinates selected by Long Xiao in the border city. In other words, although these subordinates respected him, the third prince, they all obeyed Long Xiao's command. If Long Jie wants to kidnap Jia Qianqian, he must fight alone.
Long Jie quietly prepared some dry food and waited for the opportunity.
At night, in the borrowed tent, a curtain made of brocade separates the tent in half. Jia Qianqian slept inside, and Long Jie and Long Xiao slept outside. Neither of them is worried that Qianqian will live alone, so naturally they will not let the other person live alone with her. So, the three of them lived in a tent. Although Jia Qianqian asked Long Jie to kidnap her, she didn't know when he would do it, and as soon as her head touched the pillow, she fell asleep. Long Jie hadn't been asleep, he was thinking about how to take Qianqian away smoothly.
In the middle of the night, there was silence all around, and Long Jie, who was unable to sleep, suddenly heard a small movement outside, and then heard a slight muffled snort. Then, a short cry was heard: "Someone... β
Oh no, the guard outside the door was killed, and Long Jie sat up violently.
