Chapter 99: Assassination
As soon as these words came out, everyone joked.
It's him!
Qing Tanzhi was a little surprised, remembering today's plan, she turned away slightly.
"Brother Huang, this is my sister I recognize."
"Sister, I don't remember when my father had another daughter."
Xiao Jingheng said unrelentingly.
"Okay, Brother Huang, you don't have to say a few words, today is my poetry meeting, everyone will enjoy some face."
In the end, Xiao Jingqing broke the siege.
Bai Ruoshui's eyes stared at Xiao Jingqing directly, and his heart was like a deer.
Sensing that Gu Nuan's expression was wrong, Xiao Jingyi sat opposite Gu Nuan and mouthed at her: Don't be angry!
That funny appearance made people laugh, although he was still a little angry in his heart, but he also selectively forgave him.
Qing Tanzhi sat on the other side, watching the interaction between the two, and quietly clenched his fists, his heart full of unwillingness.
Soon the poetry conference began.
The main thing is to meet friends with poems, the rules are very simple, Xiao Jingqing will come out of the last sentence of the poem, and the other person will take the next sentence of the poem, if he doesn't catch it, he will drink the wine in the cup as a punishment.
The more poems you receive, the final winner will be able to get a book of poems written by Xiao Jingqing himself.
Xiao Jingqing is in the center, and there is a sign on everyone's table as an answer card, if you have a solution, just hold up the sign.
With the voice of the father-in-law, "The poetry conference has officially begun!" ”
Xiao Jingqing began to ask questions, and many young ladies competed to answer, just to look at Xiao Jingqing.
Seeing that the people around her kept holding signs, but Bai Ruoshui's hand never moved, she was nervous, and Gu Nuan was also anxious when she saw it.
It's getting harder and harder to get the verses out.
"Tong Yingyong Lane rides a new horse," Xiao Jingqing looked around.
Gu Nuan's heart was crossed, and he directly raised Bai Ruoshui's hand.
"Girl, you answer."
In the midst of the panic, Bai Ruoshui stood up tremblingly, pondered for a long time, and slowly spit out a sentence: "The inner room is a cool screen color painting." ”
Xiao Jingqing looked at Bai Ruoshui with some surprise, and couldn't help but praise: "Good poetry!" ”
Next, Bai Ruoshui seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood.
"Folding the laurel and selling the gold to be feasted,"
"Bailu Qingsu is boiled in the middle of the night."
Bai Ruoshui's eyes were filled with a confident glow, Xiao Jingqing nodded with satisfaction, there was a little more appreciation in his eyes, and he couldn't help but look at Bai Ruoshui a few more times.
"Then there is still one last sentence left in today's poetry meeting, and Luan Grate will not return it."
Bai Ruoshui raised the sign, and slowly spit out the next sentence of the poem amid the exclamations of everyone.
"Drunk and asleep for a full month."
As soon as this poem came out, it attracted applause from everyone.
Even Xiao Jingqing's eyes couldn't help but be attracted by Bai Ruoshui many times, and praised: "Miss Bai is smart and clever, but others can't compare." ”
"The six princes are too famous, and the little girl has only learned some poems."
Seeing that Bai Ruoshui was not arrogant or impatient, the praise in the eyes of the six princes was even greater.
The ending of the poetry banquet is obvious, the final winner is Bai Ruoshui, Xiao Jingqing personally put the autobiography in her hand, looked at each other and smiled.
Xiao Jingheng smiled but did not speak, dipped his fingers in the tea and gently wrote a killing word on the table, slightly hooked his lips, and then gently crossed it out.
The sun is shining in the sky.
Towards the end of the poetry meeting, a cold light flashed in the county, several masked black-clothed people fell from the sky, everyone fled in all directions in fright, Xiao Jingyi quickly rushed to Gu Nuan, took her hand, and protected Gu Nuan behind him.
Looking at the person in front of him, Gu Nuan's heart warmed, and his hand tightened.
Qing Tanzhi's face was shocked, and he searched for Xiao Jingyi's figure in the crowd, but saw that the two of them were clinging to each other, extremely dazzling, and a beautiful face was distorted.
A sharp blade pointed straight at Xiao Jingqing and Bai Ruoshui, although Xiao Jingqing was full of poetry and books, his martial arts were not exquisite, so he could only barely dodge it, and he also protected Bai Ruoshui with his hand.
Xiao Jingyi's side was also surrounded, and he took advantage of the situation to push Gu Nuan to the other side, pulled out the sword at his waist, and put the scabbard in Gu Nuan's hand.
"Protect yourself!"
Gu Nuan held the scabbard, her eyes were full of worry, but soon she had no time to take care of it, looked at the few black-clothed people in front of her, and subconsciously retreated.
"Gu Nuan!"
Xiao Jingyi kicked the person in front of him into the air, and soon two other people blocked his way.
Gu Nuan closed her eyes tightly, could it be that she was going to die here today, she was really unwilling!
The pain in her impression did not hit, but fell into a warm embrace, she slowly opened her eyes, and called out in surprise: "Xiao Jingyi!" ”
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm not him."
The voice paused slightly, Gu Nuan was stunned for a moment, the corners of his mouth opened slightly, and he slowly spit out the name.
"Lu Boting."
He hooked his lips and chuckled, still dressed in flamboyant red, he hadn't seen him for a few days, his face looked a little vicissitudes, but it didn't affect his beauty at all.
Holding a long knife in his right hand, his figure was majestic and tall, he raised the knife in his hand, and simply solved the person in front of him, slowly skimming his head, his expression was gloomy and a little disappointed.
Seeing that Gu Nuan was safe and sound, Xiao Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief.
A man in black rose into the air, straight pointed the tip of the knife towards Xiao Jingheng, Xiao Jingheng turned slightly sideways, held the chair with his hand, and a backflip landed firmly on the ground.
He looked at the man, the man in black nodded slightly, Xiao Jingheng lightly knocked the man in black away, and his palm was also scratched.
The man in black turned around in the air, pulled out the dagger on his body, and pointed straight at Xiao Jingyi, the dagger was so close that he couldn't dodge.
"Lord Jing!"
Qing Tanzhi exclaimed, at this time, she was closest to him, and rushed over with gritted teeth.
Everyone saw a white figure push Xiao Jingyi fiercely, the dagger pushed straight into her chest, blood overflowed, Qing Tanzhi snorted, and fell straight down with his hand on his chest.
"Tanno ......"
The man in black was slapped away by Xiao Jingyi, and he lost his breath in an instant.
Soon, a large number of guards arrived from outside the door, and the ground was a mess, all of them were covered with the corpses of men in black, and the last two living ones also committed suicide, and no one was spared.
Xiao Jingyi picked up Qing Tanzhi on the ground and strode towards the door, the blood overflowing from her chest stained her clothes, and there was only a slight sound of breathing.
"Don't pass on the Imperial Doctor yet!"
Xiao Jingheng covered the bleeding wound, the corners of his lips hooked, and looked at everything in front of him with an indifferent expression.
Gu Nuan hurriedly wanted to keep up, Lu Boting coughed a few times when he saw the situation, which instantly attracted Gu Nuan's attention, she hurriedly reached out to support his arm, Lu Boting hooked his lips slightly, and pressed the whole weight on her body.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm afraid that I just exerted myself and hurt my muscles and bones."
Lu Boting said pretendedly.
He is indeed pretending, he just doesn't like Gu Nuan's eyes when he looks at Xiao Jingyi.
Xiao Jingyi took Qing Tanzhi back to his original palace, and the furnishings inside were still the same as before.
The face of the person on the bed was pale, and the doctor took out the gauze pillow to diagnose the pulse.
"Doctor, how's it going?"
"Fortunately, it didn't hurt my heart and saved my life for the time being."
Until evening.
Xiao Jingyi called two new maidservants to serve temporarily, changed into clean clothes for Qing Tanzhi, drank a pair of freshly fried medicine, and his breath gradually stabilized.
"Lord, the girl is awake."
Xiao Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief, if something happened to this Qing Tanzhi, he would not be able to give an explanation to Qing Yu under Jiuquan.
"Why are you here today?"
Gu Nuan added new tea for him and asked lightly.
Lu Boting reached out and touched her fingers, Gu Nuan was startled, quickly withdrew it, and avoided a safe distance from her, a full meter away.
"Are you afraid of me?"
Looking at the gap between the two, his expression was a little gloomy.
Gu Nuan shook his head and was silent, but avoided it even more.
With a bitter smile, Lu Boting turned his head to look at Gu Nuan, was silent for a long time, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Gu Nuan, in fact, I came today to ......"
"County Lord, that girl is awake."
The voice of the green clothes came from outside the door, Gu Nuan's face was overjoyed, and he asked instead, "Jing Yi is also there?" ”
"Lord Jing is also here."
Greencoat nodded.
"Shizi, I'm sorry, I can't accompany you, and thank you for saving me today."
Gu Nuan hurried out of the courtyard.
As if his heart was in vain, Lu Boting slowly walked out of the house.
Gu Nuan, I came today to see you, but he is the only one in your heart.
That cup of hot tea gradually cooled.
Gu Nuan trotted all the way, followed the memory in his mind, and pushed open the familiar red door.
"You're awake."
Qing Tanzhi's face was pale, and he sat up from the bed with his body propped up, and Xiao Jingyi sat on the edge of her bed.
Gu Nuan pushed open the door of the house.
Seeing the pink figure, Qing Tanzhi saw the situation, didn't care about the pain in his chest, hugged his neck, and leaned on his body.
Xiao Jingyi's body stiffened.
Gu Nuan gritted her teeth and looked at everything in front of her, which always made her feel like she was caught in bed, and she suppressed the strangeness in her heart, and she stepped forward to separate the two.
"What are you doing?"
Xiao Jingling saw that it was Gu Nuan, and hurriedly stood up.
Qingtan's face was aggrieved, and the crying pear blossoms brought rain, but it made people feel pity.
"County lord, don't blame the prince, it's all Tan Zhi's bad, it's Tan Yi who was confused, and mistakenly recognized the prince as the wrong father, so he hugged the prince."
Speaking of Qingyu, Xiao Jingyi's guilt for her deepened a little.
Gu Nuan naturally didn't eat this set, he felt disgusted when he looked at it, sneered, and said uncontrollably.
"Really? Why don't you mistake me for your mother, it's a man and hug and hug, why are you so? ”
"Tanzhi's mother died early, and the county lord beat me and scolded me, how can you slander my mother."
Qing Tanzhi clutched his chest and said angrily.
"You ......"
"Enough!"
Xiao Jingheng, who had been silent, stood up, then looked at Gu Nuan, his face softened a little, and gently took her hand.
"Nuan Nuan, Tan Zhi didn't mean it."
Gu Nuan shook off his hand and said with some mockery: "It's intimate to call a mouthful." ”
Xiao Jingyi's face sank, and he directly pulled Gu Nuan to the door, and the eyes of Qing Tanzhi behind him were full of jealousy.
Gu Nuan, sooner or later, he will be mine.
