Chapter 52: Soft-heartedness
Song Yi'an knelt on the ground, his body trembling lightly because he was too emotional, like a little daisy destroyed by the cold wind. A crystal tear suddenly shook between her eyelashes, snapped, buried in the soft skirt, and lost its traces in a blink of an eye.
It's a girl after all.
He Lianyi prides himself on being erudite and talented, but he doesn't know how to describe the scene in front of him, and he doesn't know how to describe the complex emotions in his heart.
From the standpoint of a courtier, a person who vainly attempts to subvert the situation of the court must never be forgiven, and he must do everything to eliminate evil, and let such a person accept the most fair and open judgment and be reviled by the whole world. But he didn't have the courage to "eliminate all the evil", and he couldn't bear to watch her cut it in private.
Song Yi'an's mind was dizzy, and there was a halo in front of him, flickering and dimming. She knew that she was too emotional, just a death, where did so many useless emotions come from?
Song Yi'an wiped his face with his sleeve, raised his head stubbornly, and said, "Aren't you going yet? Aren't you afraid that you will not be able to get involved in carrying someone's life?" Or does the son want to witness it with his own eyes?"
He Lianyi squatted down, although he still looked much taller than Song Yi'an, but after all, there was a lot less oppression. His tone was as gentle as a puddle of clear water: "Your Highness's mother, maybe she only hopes that Your Highness will survive, and she doesn't want you to torture yourself to this point." Life is precious, even if you are imprisoned, it is better than a hundred. ”
Song Yi'an sneered, his face full of disdain: "I heard this set of rhetoric of Childe countless times when I was six years old. At that time, I was tortured in the palace, and I always heard a few such words of persuasion afterwards. Did you know that my left ear was almost cut short by Zigen. Rather than live like that, you say, is it happier to die early and be born early?"
He Lianyi's heart was cold, he couldn't imagine how a girl had survived step by step to the present. It's a moment, but the resolute self has been persuaded by the gentle self. He said: "Your Highness, things have not yet developed to the point of being out of control, at least no one knows your identity except me. ”
"Are you soft-hearted?" Song Yi'an seemed to have discovered a joke, and a cold and piercing smile appeared on her face, "Do you want to cooperate with me and cooperate in recovering the country?"
"Naturally not. ”
Song Yi'an's smile was even stronger, and his face was so pale that there was no blood: "Isn't this enough? With such a big handle in the hands of others, I can't sit still." If I don't die today, I will definitely kill you soon, so as to prevent future troubles!"
was threatened, He Lianyi was not angry, let alone changed his decision, and even, his gentle and affectionate face like a spring breeze did not flash the slightest unhappiness. He said, "You and I have no grievances. I took you into a secluded private room to keep your secret from others, and I also wanted to leave you some leeway. To be honest, I don't know why I'm doing this, I don't know if my choice is right or wrong. It's just that I hope you, Your Highness, will live. ”
"I said, I won't leave a handle to others, I will kill you! Aren't you afraid? Aren't you afraid of endangering your family?" Song Yi'an asked without knowing whether to live or die.
He Lianyi stood up, gently shook off the dust on his body, and stepped on the floor with his white shoes, silently. When he was about to go out, he didn't look back, and said: "My father was in the scientific examination of the Zhou Dynasty, and was appreciated and promoted by the emperor of the previous dynasty, and bathed in holy grace. I thought that if my father was here, he would have made the same decision. But since he is already an official in the court, he will be loyal to His Majesty. If Your Highness does something out of the ordinary, you will not stand idly by. ”
"Sanctimonious, nonsense!" Song Yi'an said.
He Lianyi opened the door and went out, without leaving another word.
Song Yi'an seemed to have been drained of his strength and collapsed to the ground, exhausted.
Outside the teahouse, Zhen Yuqing put her left hand behind her back and stared carefully at the palm of her right hand. In the palm of his hand lay a small but delicate jade pendant.
Zhen Yuqing, who prides himself on being an antique master, can see at a glance that the seemingly inconspicuous little jade pendant in his hand is actually a priceless treasure.
Its texture is Hetian sheep fat jade, the best in jade. The workmanship is delicate, and the shape is a unicorn. It is said to be a unicorn, and it is not an ordinary unicorn shape, its lines are softer, and the depth is also exquisite. Many of the patterns are simple to draw, but there is no perfunctory meaning on the whole, which makes it more fairy-like.
The unicorn is the most popular beast worn by girls, which can ward off evil spirits and ward off disasters. Among the dignitaries, in order to show their love for their daughters, many people will ask craftsmen to create a good unicorn jade pendant when they are born. But Zhen Yuqing had never seen such a valuable jade pendant.
That little girl, who looks weak and ordinary, may really hide a lot of secrets, no wonder her cousin is so out of shape.
—————
He Lianyi finally walked out of the teahouse.
Zhen Yuqing originally wanted to make fun of him, but when she saw his serious expression, she held back again.
"Minghong?" Zhen Yuqing shouted.
He Lianyi glanced around and asked, "Where was the thief just now?"
"Ran away," Zhen Yuqing said, "The best runner in our family couldn't catch up with him, I look, it may be a retired veteran." ”
The veteran is right, but not necessarily "retreating". He Lianyi thought that His Royal Highness the Seventh could cooperate with the Jiangxia Palace, and I have to say that there were also some means. He is a civil servant who has offended the Jiangxia Palace, so he should really be careful.
Zhen Yuqing took the jade pendant that she snatched back, shook it in front of Helianyi's eyes, and said, "The thing was snatched back, and it is intact." ”
He Lianyi took the jade pendant and rubbed it a few times. The cool jade lies quietly in the palm of his hand, and he has the feeling of watching the world with cold eyes. He called the teahouse junior over and asked him to return the jade pendant to its original owner.
After a long time, Song Yi'an, who had sorted out his emotions, walked down the stairs with vain steps. Her head was still dizzy, and the bright sun outside was sick. She took back her jade pendant, but felt that this jade pendant was a little more shameful.
The jade pendant was left to her by her mother, and it was a token that the Zhou royal family only passed on to Princess Yan.
Relic is such a thing, Song Yi'an has always looked at it very lightly. On the one hand, the relics left to her by her mother are only that, and on the other hand, her mission is only to restore the country and kill Song Xu, as for those meaningless memories, she thinks they are all burdens.
Once, this jade pendant always reminded Song Yi'an that he could not forget his hatred and wanted to avenge his mother;
