Chapter 7 Connecting Horizontal and Vertical (Medium)
Qingping was still wondering why all these powerful people who should choose the box upstairs had come downstairs, but when she saw the turbulent undercurrent between Yang Ning and them, and then caught a glimpse of the cordial demeanor of the young man on the seat of King Han to Yang Ning, she somehow felt a sour in her heart. Looking carefully, I felt that the young man's skeleton was slender, and the traces of the earrings had not been fully concealed, and his heart moved, and he suddenly understood, and couldn't help but sneer, and deliberately raised his voice: "Zijing, you see that it is really lively here today, presumably all the junjie who are interested in seeking the phoenix are here today, I don't know if it is a coincidence, or I want to compete between the proposals." By the way, if His Royal Highness the King of Han also came here to take a look, wouldn't he be able to inspect the character and talent of the suitor in advance, wouldn't it be better than Zhuo Wenjun in the past, and he didn't have to choose a talented man just by the sound of the piano and peeping under the curtain. Her voice was like a crisp turn, like an ice jade strike, falling into her ears only felt a wisp of coolness from her heart, although these words were guesses, but they were also somewhat in line with the current situation, so most people smiled knowingly, and a low voice couldn't help but sound in the Canghai Hall, and some people took the opportunity to peek at Yang Jun, Tang Zhonghai, Lei Jianyun and Zhan Yun, after all, even if these people attend the treasure fair on weekdays, most of them are in the box, how can there be such a good opportunity to get together so that everyone has the opportunity to judge them?
Hearing Qingping's words, Yang Jun and the others were really embarrassed, frankly speaking, they chose to appear today, and most of the ostensible reasons were to get close to this demon emperor who seemed to have bad intentions, and see if there was any possibility of winning over or eliminating them. But the real reason is because from today, there are a few treasures suitable for dowry to be sold one after another, if you continue to hide in the box, even if you buy anonymously, it will be made public in the future, so that the secret identity is meaningless, it is better to appear publicly, compete with each other for financial resources, buy it justifiably, and you can also fight openly and secretly in front of everyone by the way. There is another reason that is even more subtle, they have already discovered that the young man who came to participate in the collection of treasures with Li Su, a confidant of the King of Han in the past two days, is not only beautiful, but also has a slender skeleton, and is obviously a pretty woman. Almost all of them suspected that this woman was a close maid of the Lord of Splendid County, and perhaps she came on purpose to take advantage of such a good opportunity as the Treasure Gathering Conference to examine the suitor's bearing skills from the side. For this purpose, they will also take the initiative to show up. In fact, many people know this layer of hidden intentions, but no one has the courage to expose it like Qingping, but even if they are embarrassed, these people can't speak ill of Qingping, after all, there is a demon emperor by Qingping's side, and if they really want to conflict, they are afraid that it will be harmful and useless, not to mention that if they really want to use force against a girl like Qingping, wouldn't it be a ridicule of burning the qin and cooking the crane, and it is not a bad deed that they can do at all.
Seeing their embarrassed expressions, especially the girl on the Han King Huang Banquet glared at herself and Yang Ning viciously, and Yang Ning didn't even raise her eyelids more, Qingping was amused in her heart, and that wisp of jealousy dissipated unconsciously. In fact, the main purpose of her doing this was to confuse the water, so as to better achieve her wishes, so she smiled sweetly at the girl, and then she didn't care about looking at these young junjie who were going to propose to the county lord of Splendid Beauty.
Looking left and right, Qingping only felt that the four people who had a marriage proposal had their own merits, if they were handsome, they were naturally second to none by Lei Jianyun, the envoy of the King of Yunnan, but if they were humble in terms of status, Lei Jianyun was the weakest one, so most of them would have to suffer some losses. And the other three, Yang Jun is handsome, majestic, graceful, and quite kingly, Tang Zhonghai is handsome and handsome, although his bearing is slightly inferior, but he is also extraordinary, but he is a little more arrogant than Yang Jun, Zhan Yun is a little rougher than the other three in appearance, but he has the demeanor of a general, but he is also unique, and it is difficult to distinguish between him and him for a while.
Yang Ning saw Qingping's burning eyes looking at Yang Jun, Lei Jianyun and others, somehow he was not very comfortable, lowered his head, and his eyes flashed with annoyance, but at this moment, a soft and warm jade hand held his hanging right hand under the table, Yang Ning only felt his heart tremble, raised his head, and met Qingping's smiling gaze, only to feel a warm current in his heart, looking at each other, he could no longer take his eyes away, and tenderness flashed in the deep and cold phoenix eyes. Qingping was locked by his fiery and affectionate gaze, and lowered her head shyly, she just noticed Yang Ning's unhappiness, and subconsciously wanted to appease him, but unexpectedly aroused Yang Ning's fiery affection.
At this moment, the people who broke the siege came, and there were several sounds of cloud boards in their ears, and everyone couldn't help but look up, only to see Wan Han and a beautiful maid in a light blue shirt already standing on the platform, and there was a pear blossom case in front of the two, on which was placed a tray covered with red silk, and an antique bronze bell, the maid was holding an ivory cloud board in her hand, and it was this maid who knocked on the cloud board to remind everyone. Yang Ning and Qingping were both shocked, and hurriedly looked away, but no one could bear to let go of their clenched hands, the two of them did not hide their children's feelings from others, but who dared to alarm this pair of little evil stars at such a time? Therefore, they both focused on looking at the stage, waiting for Wan Yang to announce the start of the treasure collection meeting.
Wan Han hugged his fist and cast a Luo circle, and then raised his voice: "You have been waiting for a long time, today is the sixth day of the collection of treasures, a few days ago has been traded 1,276 treasures, Wan Bao Zhai has benefited a lot from it, Wan Mou is here to thank you for your love, today under the order of the lord of Zhai, take out a treasure that we have treasured for many years, for you to appreciate, in order to show the reverence of Wan Bao Zhai." Anyway, Wan Han lifted the red scarf with his own hands, but it turned out that there were two jade bamboo chess pieces on the tray, one with black black jade chess pieces, and one inside was a crystal crystal chess piece, the roof above the platform had been deliberately disassembled when it was built, replaced with translucent glass, so the daylight could shine directly down, at this time it was the turn of noon, the dazzling sunlight slanted in, just reflected on the chess piece, looking from afar, only to feel the beautiful jade smoke, strange light.
As soon as they saw this chess piece, everyone in the hall was bright-eyed, especially Qingping and Lei Jianyun, both of them remembered yesterday's planning, Qingping originally didn't pay attention to what treasures were to be sold today, but when she saw this chess piece, she immediately guessed that Wanbaozhai took advantage of the opportunity of Yang Jun and others to show up openly today, and wanted to set off a ** After all, this chess piece is one of the most popular treasures, so at this moment, she subconsciously turned her head to look at Lei Jianyun, the two looked at each other, but their eyes did not stop, they just moved away indifferently, and looked at other people who might compete for this chess piece one by one, but the moment their eyes staggered, the two of them had already tacitly understood in their hearts.
Said to be appreciation, in fact, it is just a few maids each with a tray covered with red satin a few chess pieces, respectively to the following turn, interested guests will beckon the maid over, pick up the chess pieces and take a closer look, but such a quality of chess pieces, people who are qualified to buy and are willing to spend a lot of money are not many, besides, there have been rumors in advance, knowing that this set of chess pieces has been recognized as one of the dowry, so in addition to Yang Jun and others, only a few people have the courage to take a look, Nanmin Yu Hideo is one of them.
Yu Xiufu picked up a crystal chess piece, looked at the sunlight from the glass window on the roof, only to feel that the dust was not clean, a faint milky white halo was rendered inside the chess piece, more and more pure and innocent, his eyes flashed, and he glanced at the yellow seat in front of the left, Qingping was twisting up a black jade chess piece, the flowing chess piece and her bright and clear eyes contrasted with each other, unconsciously, the crystal chess piece slipped from his fingertips and fell silently on the red satin tray. Feeling the surprised gaze of the maid in Tsing Yi, Yu Xiufu waved him back in a little panic, lowering his eyes, not wanting people to notice his gaffe.
At this time, Wan Yang saw that interested people had already appreciated the chess pieces one by one, so he said aloud: "This pair of crystal jade chess pieces has been treasured for many years, with a reserve price of 80,000 taels, and those who are interested can bid for a price increase of 5,000 taels each time." Before the words fell, a bell rang, Yang Ning looked at the hammer in Qingping's hand and the small and delicate golden bell on the table inexplicably, not knowing why Qingping wanted to ring the bell. Qingping smiled, a sly glint flashing in her eyes. Wan Yan was already shouting above: "Miss Qingping eighty-five thousand taels." Yang Ning suddenly realized, but he didn't understand why Qingping wanted to bid for a pair of chess pieces, as if whether it was Qingping or Luqi, they were very interested in Go.
Tang Zhonghai already saw that Yang Ning and Qingping were not pleasing to the eye, every time he remembered what happened in Yueyang Tower, he became angry, although it was not because of these two people who were rejected by the King of Dian, but he always thought that if it were not for the Dongting Shuangju to challenge Yan Zishuang, Yang Ning would have sprung up, and would not let Yan Zishuang give up his efforts to persuade the King of Dian, he would not have returned from Yueyang in vain, nor would he let his father disappoint him, let alone let his brother sit firmly in the position of the son. So when he saw Qingping bidding, he felt that an evil fire rose in his heart, so he also rang the bell and said coldly: "This chess piece Tang is going to be decided, 90,000 taels." β
Seeing this, Yu Xiufu was unhappy, his eyes swept over the chess pieces, and he said coldly: "Ninety-five thousand taels." β
Lei Jianyun smiled slightly, and also raised his voice: "One hundred thousand taels." "He is deliberately fueling the trouble, anyway, even if he really buys it, it is not bad, anyway, it is the silver taels of the King of Dian.
Feeling the turbulent undercurrent, Wu Cheng's gloomy eyes seemed to leak a smile, but he didn't make a sound, just picked up the hammer and knocked on the golden bell casually, joining the ranks of the bidding.
The girl next to Li Su was originally annoyed that everyone was looking at her rudely, but when she saw this, she was also interested, so she said crisply: "110,000 taels." Then he struck the bell, and the bell swirled melodiously, like a girl's laughter.
At this moment, except for Yang Jun, almost everyone was involved in the bidding, Yang Jun's eyes flashed with a smile, he didn't want to be independent, so he also rang the golden bell.
Tang Zhonghai couldn't understand Yang Jun's intentions, and was almost half angry to death, only to feel that Lei Jianyun and the others were also okay, why did Yang Jun still have to fight with him, no matter what, the Yang and Tang families were allies. He was annoyed here, Shi Ming had already noticed the change in the situation, no matter who provoked such a dispute, this chess piece was a good treasure, Tang Zhonghai took the initiative to bid for the first time, and the Tang family was a landlord, so he should naturally win, so he rang the golden bell and said: "120,000 taels." Then he glanced at Qingping, who was the first to shout.
Qingping smiled slightly, she didn't want to really buy this chess piece, although she also liked it, put down the hammer in her hand, and looked left and right.
Seeing that Qingping was "forced" to give up, Yu Xiufu only felt that she had been bullied by Tang Zhonghai and Shi Ming, and she was not angry in her heart, and she didn't care about the good relationship with the Tang family, and rang the golden bell. Lei Jianyun guessed Tang Zhonghai and Shi Jing's thoughts, struck while the iron was hot, and struck the golden bell again, ignoring Tang Zhonghai's blazing gaze.
The girl on the seat of the King of Han rolled her eyes, picked up the hammer and struck the bell, and said coquettishly: "One hundred hundred thousand taels." The voice was like Yan language, but it made Tang Zhonghai almost angry.
Wu Cheng shook his head with a smile when he heard this, with his identity, he would naturally not wade into this troubled water again, but Zhan Yun picked up the hammer and struck the golden bell without moving, he was a general who had experienced a hundred battles, and he was naturally proficient in the art of war, and he had already found that everyone was faintly besieging Tang Zhonghai, and with his temperament, he would naturally take advantage of the victory to pursue, instead of returning to the mountain.
Tang Zhonghai was so angry that he almost vomited blood at this time, and at a glance, he saw that Qingping and Yang Jun had both picked up the hammer to play, but when they still had to bid, he was excited in his heart, snatched the hammer from Shi Ming's hand and struck the golden bell fiercely, and said sharply: "150,000 taels." β
This time, no other bells rang, but the little girl picked up the hammer and pretended to make a few gestures at the golden bell before putting it down, which made Tang Zhonghai worry for a long time.
Wan Yang saw that no one shouted the price again, so he waved his hand, and the blue-shirted maid next to him rang the bronze bell when he saw this, and the loud bell reverberated in the Canghai Hall, and the sound was endless, and Wan Yang said loudly in the bell: "Congratulations to the second son of Tang for buying the crystal jade chess pieces with 150,000 taels." At this time, his own man put the chess pieces in a brocade box and sent them to Tang Zhonghai. Tang Zhonghai looked around at everyone with a cold gaze, really unwilling to admit that he bought this chess piece at a price that was nearly double its original value.
Thinking of this, Tang Zhonghai looked at the three people who gave him the final blow with some annoyance, only to see Zhan Yun's expression indifferent, and he was taking the fragrant tea from the maid, as if he had not taken advantage of the danger, but Yang Jun felt that his hostile gaze was a little confused, in fact, he was holding the hammer at that time and just forgot to put it down. Qingping was still smiling brightly, as soon as she remembered that Tang Zhonghai and Yan Zishuang appeared together, she was already very annoyed, and then thought of the incident of Shi Ming and others intercepting Zijing on the river, and remembered that the other party almost killed herself and Zijing under the pressure of each other, and the new and old hatreds broke out together, and she only felt that Fang Cai's last move was very proud.
Seeing Qingping's provocative smile, Tang Zhonghai was even more angry in his heart, but after all, he was a smart person, and he calmed down when he was extremely angry, and he knew that this was not the best time to make a move, and the first priority at present was to make a name for himself in front of everyone, let alone leave a bad impression on Li Su and the girl dressed as a man. As long as you marry the lord of the splendid county, then your status in the family can be raised to the same level as the eldest brother, so it is really not worth destroying your image for some grievances. What's more, his hostility has just leaked, Yang Ning's indifferent gaze has firmly locked him, Yang Ning's martial arts are what he has seen with his own eyes, and he will not attack easily before he is completely sure.
After calming down completely, Tang Zhonghai reluctantly smiled and said, "Thank you for agreeing." His tone was calm, and though he was a little proud, it was a trait common to the children of a noble-born family. Yang Jun, Lei Jianyun and others, whether intentionally or not, all greeted with a smile and expressed their congratulations, even Wu Cheng and Zhan Yun of Youji also maintained their superficial politeness, only Yang Ning and Qingping still had no intention of understanding him, Yang Ning also returned it, just indifferently, Qingping deliberately turned her face away, not wanting to give Tang Zhonghai a good face at all.
It's just that although Qingping is rude, she experienced great sorrow and joy last night and today, and the hazy feelings between her and Yang Ning have also begun to become clear, and at this moment it is the time when she is extremely happy and relaxed after being very nervous, so the rude disdain she deliberately shows is a little unreal, but it is the moving demeanor of light anger and anger, which not only makes Yang Ning, Yu Xiufu was so moved by someone who had a soft spot for her, even Tang Zhonghai, who originally had a deep resentment towards her, felt a wave in his heart, not to mention other ordinary men, and for a while, there seemed to be only the sound of a rapid heartbeat in the Canghai Hall.
Feeling that the atmosphere in the hall was inappropriate, Wan Han immediately ordered the maid to knock on the cloud board, and then said loudly: "The following auction is a batch of agarwood sold by Wanbao Zhai on behalf of Wanbao Zhai, with a total weight of five catties, according to the practice of spice auctions, divided into ten parts, each with a reserve price of five thousand taels, you can bid." β
Everyone's attention immediately shifted back, only to see two men carrying a box of ten and a half feet in size, each with some jet-black charcoal in it, the color was like black jade, and there were even a few fist-sized intact wooden blocks, which were held in a single box, but in a moment, a wisp of faint fragrance had already filled the entire Canghai Hall, making many people's eyes light up.
Agarwood is a specialty of the South Seas, as hard as steel bars, fragrant like musk deer, put into the incense burner, the aroma can rise to the sky, endure, if it is used as medicinal materials, whether it is used as medicinal materials or spices, it is extremely precious, especially the Buddha beads or wine bottles carved from agarwood, the fragrance is into the bones, it will not disperse for ten thousand years, it is most favored by the powerful, it often costs a thousand gold, and it is only half a tael of baht. This time, Wanbao Zhai sold five catties of agarwood at one time, which is rare. Considering that there must be a lot of buyers, if they are sold together, most of them cannot be bought, and they will inevitably be disappointed in Wanbao Zhai, so Wan Han will split this batch of agarwood into ten parts, so that people who want to get all the agarwood alone are equivalent to being hostile to all the rich people in the world, and it is impossible to succeed, but if you only want to get one of them, although it is inevitably much more expensive, it is not something that cannot be done. As Wan Yan expected, every piece of agarwood was sold at a high price, but there was no such situation as the dragon and the tiger, just because everyone has a share, so those with equal strength naturally avoided the edge, and almost tacitly bid in turn, and finally the wish was fulfilled, and after such a while, the atmosphere in the hall became peaceful.
Most of the next sales are some antique calligraphy and paintings, or rare treasures, but although these things are valuable, they will not be taken to heart by Yang Jun, Tang Zhonghai and others, at most they will casually taste a few words, but they are easily unwilling to make a move, but the girl who is dressed as a man competes with great interest, and when the wind and water rise, she will leave it alone, I don't know how many people spent more silver taels for nothing, but in the case of a mouse taboo, no one dared to offend her. Qingping added fuel from time to time, so that a few of her own treasures mixed in it were sold for a good price.
Yang Ning was not interested in any of this, so he simply closed his eyes and breathed, in fact, such an environment is not suitable for practicing in public, but Yang Ning's practice of the mind is different, sitting, standing, lying and walking can be lucky, and as long as you pay attention, you can not show clues, although the effect is worse, but it is better than nothing. Yang Ning originally thought that after last night's incident, although Wu Cheng helped, although there was not much loss of true qi, but the qi was inevitably affected, but under this luck, he only felt that the qi was smooth, like a line like a bead, and among the eight veins of the strange meridians, the internal force was endless, full of vitality, and the mind moved slightly, and the breath came immediately, like an arm making a finger, and the pleasure was very. Yang Ning was overjoyed in his heart, he had encountered many strong enemies during this period of time, and his true qi had repeatedly made breakthroughs, but it was inevitable that he was a little too hasty, his internal breath increased too quickly, and his control ability was somewhat weakened, so that if he encountered a strong enemy, he was not as good as before, and the possibility of defeat increased, so Yang Ning often practiced true qi control secretly these days, but he did not make much progress. But after the lingering tempering last night, although the true qi was damaged, but the life-and-death struggle allowed Yang Ning to break through the bottleneck of the true qi control, and then Wu Cheng's help allowed him to avoid the loss of the true qi, so now it is a blessing in disguise, and his cultivation has risen to a higher level. Under the joy in his heart, Yang Ning continued to urge the heart method, and the true air flow changed, just like the number of Zhou Tiandou, ever-changing, the joy was endless, and time flew by without a trace.
Yang Ning suddenly practiced inexplicably, and the clearest thing was, of course, Qingping sitting next to him, although on the surface Yang Ning was just closing his eyes and recuperating, but these days of getting along day and night, Qingping naturally knew what Yang Ning was doing. Although she was very dissatisfied with Yang Ning holding up so much in front of everyone, Qingping alone was still subconsciously vigilant, lest someone take the opportunity to sneak attack. Fortunately, most people's attention stayed on the platform in front of them, and Yang Ning's appearance did not leak obvious signs of practice, which allowed her to wait with peace of mind, but she couldn't take care of those treasures that she had a share, so she could only gradually fall silent, fortunately, the few remaining antique calligraphy and paintings were sold for a good price, after all, they were all rare treasures.
Gradually, the shadow of the sun is slanting westward, seeing that the sky is getting late, Wan Han sweated like rain and said: "The time is coming, the last thing to be sold this afternoon is a black jade Buddha statue, the reserve price is 180,000 taels, in addition, the owner respects Buddhism, if there is a purchase of this Buddha statue, I am willing to give it to the original Diamond Sutra in Sanskrit." β
Hearing this, Yang Jun, the king of Yu, who had been calm and calm, squirted out the tea in his mouth, ignoring everyone's surprised eyes, he turned his head to look at Yang Ning, but saw that the ninth brother had lowered his head and was drowsy at some point, thinking of Yang Ning's understatement at noon today, Yang Jun almost smiled bitterly. If you want to buy a Buddhist scripture, it will only cost a thousand taels of silver at most, but with a black jade Buddha statue, it will be completely different, and I can't imagine that the ninth brother, who has always thought that he was naΓ―ve and simple, would set up such a scheme to fool himself. But Yang Jun knew that if Yang Ning hadn't said that, he could still consider giving up this opportunity to curry favor with the Sword King, but if he withdrew now, not only would he offend Yang Ning, but if Yang Yuan, the king of Yi, knew about it in the future, he would also think that he was scornful of him, which was a trap that he knew was a trap and had to step on. Thinking of this, Yang Jun shook his head and raised his voice: "One hundred and fifty-five thousand taels." β
Yang Jun was careless for a while, leaking strange emotions, and naturally fell into the eyes of others, although I don't know what this matter has to do with Yang Ning, but everyone immediately raised their guard, Tang Zhonghai hesitated slightly, and then rang the golden bell and said: "190,000 taels." Before the words fell, Lei Jianyun, who had been prepared, had already rang the golden bell, and said with a smile: "195,000 taels." β
Wu Cheng is the fastest person to understand the joints, he knows what happened to Yang Ning last night, and he also knows that not anyone has the opportunity to harm the Demon Emperor, so Yang Jun's slightest misstep made him guess the truth, and after understanding that this was mostly Yang Ning's revenge, he did not hesitate to add fuel to the fire, and directly shouted a bid of 200,000 taels. Next, the little girl on the seat of the King of Han also began to join in, Qingping was happy to see the hunt, but she also shouted a bid, between the emperors and the feudal clans, they were all separated from each other, and they were all pressing step by step, plus Tang Zhonghai hated Yang Jun for forcing him to buy the crystal jade chess pieces at a high price, which was also making waves. Similar to the last time everyone joined forces to force Tang Zhonghai, but this time it was unlucky to become Yang Jun, and in the end, Yang Jun was forced to buy this black jade Buddha statue at a sky-high price of 320,000 taels.
By the time Yang Ning was pushed awake by Qingping, the song had already ended, and there was no one in the empty Canghai Hall, Qingping said happily: "Zijing, did you do anything, otherwise how could Yang Jun be so obedient and didn't hesitate? This is more than 300,000 taels of silver." β
Yang Ning smiled faintly, this was the first time he used his scheming, but he didn't expect it to work, at this moment, he realized that he could actually take revenge on his opponent without force. However, his heart turned back and forth, and in the end, Yang Ning just said lightly: "He planned to kill me, and only let him spend some gold and silver, which is already very cheap for him." Qingping's heart trembled, her eyes drooped, and after a long time, she finally raised her head and asked word by word: "Zijing, why did you go to see him, why did he want to harm you, why did the people of Youji want to save you, why didn't you kill Yang Jun, and until now, you still refuse to tell me?"
If it was in the past, Yang Ning would still be silent, but after yesterday's changes, the bond of family and blood in his mind has faded a lot, but after a long time, he finally gently reached out and took Qingping into his arms, feeling Qingping's somewhat accelerated heartbeat, and said lightly: "My mother calls me Zijing, but I also have a name called Yang Ning, ranking ninth." β
Qingping was a little dazed at first, but gradually, her phoenix eyes became clear, and the cause and effect finally became coherent, and she couldn't help but exclaim: "You are the son of the county lord, and you are Yang Ning, His Royal Highness the Ninth King of Xin?"
Yang Ning tightened his arms and said in a low voice: "Qingping, don't leave me like your mother, okay, otherwise, I don't know how to face my future life." β
Although Yang Ning's tone was extremely indifferent, Qingping could feel the trembling and fear in the depths of Yang Ning's soul, this fearless teenager was really afraid that he would abandon him. Qingping only felt a mess in her heart, in the past, because she regarded the county lord of Huofeng as a god, she subconsciously ignored all the shadows on the county lord's body, such as the Nine Highnesses who disappeared inexplicably, the boy who was obviously the blood of the county lord, but seemed to be as cheap as gravel, and had never shown his face in front of people. But suddenly, she learned that Zi Jing, who was like her own flesh and blood, turned out to be the Ninth Highness who was extremely embarrassed, and she immediately remembered how Zi Jing had lived in the world in the past two years, thinking of Zi Jing's indifference and loneliness that would never fade away, thinking of Zi Jing's pain these days, what kind of mood he had to assassinate Luo Chengyu, how hesitant to entrust his sister to his natural enemy, how he faced Ximen Rin's betrayal with heartache, and how he endured the murder of his own brotherγ Unconsciously, two lines of tears rolled down, and she could no longer suppress the sorrow that welled up from the bottom of her heart, Qingping hugged Yang Ning tightly with her backhand, unable to help herself, and finally cried loudly. Without words, he immediately understood Qingping's intention of never giving up, Yang Ning only felt that his already cold heart seemed to be soaked in drops of nectar, and the water vapor gathered in his eyes, and a drop of hot tears stained Qingping's inky green silk, sliding down the white jade-like cheeks, and the tears of the two collided in their hearts, melting and penetrating each other, just like two young hearts, gradually becoming one.
When the two finally calmed down, it was already sunset outside. Although Yang Ning never thought that he had deceived the Shuangjue sisters, in fact, he still deliberately concealed his identity, and now he finally told Qingping everything, he only felt that his mood was unprecedentedly relaxed, let go of his hands, and looked at Qingping's beautiful face like rain, Yang Ning said a little dazedly: " Qingping, you already know my identity, will you blame me for not saving Sister Luqi, in fact, no matter whether Luo Chengyu forcibly left Sister Luqi in Xindu, most of the time he just wants me not to fight with him, if I am willing to formally agree to him, or he will let Sister Luqi go. β
Qingping took out an emerald green silk scarf, wiped away the tears on her face, and sighed: "I blame you for what to do, now that I think about it, my sister probably already knows your identity, otherwise how would she strongly encourage me to go south to find you, and fight with my life to help me escape, even I need to use the vault I thought of it, and gave me a relief pill in advance, so that I don't have to feel guilty." My sister is a smart person in Bingxue, a hundred times better than you and me, and your vague statements about your background can only hide from me, a careless stupid girl, where can I hide from her. But in this way, I am even more worried about my sister's safety, I used to think that Luo Chengyu attaches so much importance to you just because of love, although most of the characters of his identity are those who follow me and die, but if he is smart, he should know that instead of being an enemy of us, it is better to stay away, no matter how I think he is not a stupid person who does not know the times, so I believe that he will not hurt his sister and have a deep hatred with you and me. But now it's different, there are some things in this world that can never be ceded, even if it is the blood of the closest relatives, it can't compete with the struggle for power, if he is worried that you will compete with him for the throne, no matter how you promise to back down, he will not believe that you will give up, unless your whole person is in his hands, otherwise he will never let go of any trick to coerce you. I guess now he uses his sister to coerce you to stay away from Youji, just because he doesn't want to put this matter on the table, so as not to disturb people's hearts, once he inherits the throne and holds the power of Youji in his hands, and even Yunlong changes and takes the supreme throne, you will no longer be a threat to him. At that time, he will definitely use all his strength to hunt down and kill you, a big henchman, and in order to break your will, maybe my sister will be the first victim. β
Yang Ning frowned and said, "Since I have retreated and made it clear that I will not compete with him for power, is Luo Chengyu still unwilling to let me go?"
Qingping shook her head and said: "I just guessed according to the worst possibility, the so-called puff is not guilty, and he is guilty, Zijing, since you are qualified to compete with Luo Chengyu for the throne, then this is your natural sin, if you don't kill them all, who knows if you will regret it in the future, you are the one who can shake the foundation of his great cause, how can he allow your existence?" Of course, if you think about the good, if Luo Chengyu is not so ruthless, and still reciting the word kindness and righteousness, he may imprison you at the beginning, and one day his position will be unshakable, and you will not be able to damage his great cause, maybe he will be more generous, exchange you for freedom, give you wealth, and even treat you like a brother, so as not to end up ungrateful, and the infamy of fratricidal will be passed down through the ages. β
Yang Ning thought for a moment, and said with some hesitation: "I don't think he should be killed, Mr. Wu of Youji is Luo Chengyu's Xixi, presumably his confidant, if Luo Chengyu really wants to harm me, how can he not know, if this is the case, I'm afraid they will be able to get their wish last night." β
A cold glint flashed in Qingping's eyes, and said: "I have also seen that Mr. Wu today, although this person is amiable on the surface, but my master often says that such a person is the best at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, since he is Luo Chengyu's husband, Luo Chengyu's scheming is so deep, how good can he be." He doesn't kill you now, maybe he wants to capture him, and there is still a place to use you, after all, King Yan is still in the world, and most of the others know your identity, just in case, coercion is better than fetters, and besides, you are so naΓ―ve, I am afraid that he will sell you and count the money for him. Don't talk about it, just say that you received Wu Cheng's favor yesterday, but your temperament is clear and grudgeful, if he subdues you for Luo Chengyu in the future, maybe your upright county lord and son will become Luo Chengyu's right-hand man, and then who else in this world can shake Luo Chengyu's status. Even if you didn't deceive you, you also left yourself a talisman, even if you find out that Mr. Wu is sorry for you in the future, you can't bear to embarrass him once or twice with your temperament. I'm just afraid that Mr. Wu has already planned how to use you, in fact, I want to say that no matter how they treat you well, it is a matter of course, it is they who owe you the young master, and you don't owe them. β
Yang Ning was silent for a long time before he spoke: "Qingping, you think too much, what kind of person Luo Chengyu is, I know very well in my heart, what kind of person I am, do you think Luo Chengyu can't see it? If he wants to harm me, he will never use any conspiracy and tricks, let alone play any tricks to capture and indulge, that is, Ximen Rin wants to harm me, and it is also a real knife and a real gun, but he does not use any despicable means that are not in the stream." And I will never surrender to anyone in this life, this is what my mother taught me when I was a child, and now that I have left my mother to be independent, I will never be at the mercy of others, even if my mother is standing in front of me now, I want me to surrender to Luo Chengyu, and I will never change my mind. So if Luo Chengyu really wants to harm me, Mr. Wu shouldn't have returned to the mountain last night, in fact, yesterday was the most dangerous time in my life, if Mr. Wu wanted to harm me, I'm afraid I really couldn't escape death, although I am confident that I can make them pay a huge price, but it is worth it for them. Qingping, Mr. Wu is really a very good person, if it is possible, I really hope that there can be such a gentleman, teach me to read and reason, and clear my doubts, do you know, I am more jealous of Luo Chengyu than before, why is everything he has so far away for me. β
Qingping stared at Yang Ning's eyes tightly, only to feel that the pair of deep and cold phoenix eyes were unprecedentedly firm and clear, I don't know how long it took, Qingping finally nodded and said: " My sister said, although you don't understand the world, but it is a matter of life and death, your intuition is definitely better than the conclusion obtained after repeated speculation, since you said that Luo Chengyu is not such a sinister person, I believe you, but you have to promise me, if one day in the future, you find that Luo Chengyu really has the intention of killing you, you must go all out to escape, if my sister and I hinder you, you are not allowed to give in for us, let alone sacrifice your life to avenge us. You have to remember, as long as you live, my sister and I will be broken, and there will be no regrets, if you die, you will be rich and rich, and my sister and I will not have the slightest happiness. β
Looking at Qingping's face, which was a little red because of excitement, Yang Ning's heart turned a thousand times, and he said with some hesitation: "Qingping, Sister Luqi really already knows my identity? Now you also know, do you treat me so well because of my mother? I know that the two sisters respect their mother the most." β
Qingping heard the words, only to feel that her eyes were dark, and she almost fainted with anger, suddenly raised her arm, and slapped Yang Ning hard without thinking about anything, Yang Ning wanted to dodge, it would have been easy, but seeing Qingping's angry eyes, she only felt that Zhou couldn't react up and down, and she took this slap without resistance. Qingping's original anger dissipated after seeing the obvious five-finger palm marks on Yang Ning's face and the innocent expression in his eyes, and finally couldn't help but laugh and said angrily: "Count yourself smart, you know that you should fight." If you didn't stay with our sisters for two years, if we didn't treat you as our brother, who would care if you lived or died, not to mention that you are the son of the county lord, Luo Chengyu is still the adopted son of the county lord, when I didn't know your identity, I didn't help him deal with you. β
Yang Ning's heart warmed, and he muttered: "Yes, sister, I know that I am wrong, and I will never say such bastard words in the future." But sister, don't resent Luo Chengyu and Mr. Wu for me, in fact, they don't owe me. The world of Youji was beaten down by my mother, and my mother wanted to give this piece of the world to Luo Chengyu, this is my mother's freedom, I have never set foot on the land of Youji, I have not done a thing for them, and it is understandable that they are unwilling to accept me. Luo Chengyu is different, he is the lord that Youji needs, if I am a citizen of Youji, I also hope that it will be him, not someone like me who knows nothing to be their prince. β
Qingping sighed and said, "That's it, I know I can't beat you, but I'm a little woman, not a big hero, and the most annoying sentence in my life is." Righteousness destroys relatives', I don't care if Luo Chengyu is the holy lord of the Ming monarch, or a rebellious thief, if he treats you like a brother, I will treat him as a good person, if he is ruthless and unrighteous to you, even if you don't blame him, I will never forgive him, hum, if I can't kill him, I will harm his wife and concubines, and his henchmen, even if he fights for a lifetime, I will also hurt him to become a lonely man, so that he can't turn a blind eye when he dies. Don't forget, my father is a robber, my master is a strategist, as long as I learn their seven tricks, if I want to harm a person's life, it's better to die, isn't it easy?"
Yang Ning was speechless when he heard this, and he was in a cold sweat, until today he didn't know that Qingping had such a violent and terrible side, but somehow, he felt that the two hearts were unprecedentedly compatible, and couldn't help but hug Qingping into his arms again, and the two figures were dragged by the sunset afterglow that fell through the roof, and they were close to each other, never separated.
Twilight is low, Wan Han slowly walked towards the Canghai Hall, the afternoon of the fair, Wan Bao Zhai benefited a lot, which naturally has other reasons, but at the moment still remain in the hall of the pair of teenagers and girls to help the trouble, so Wan Yang prepared the banquet after the preparation of the banquet is ready to come to invite in person, the two people around the left and right are most likely to take Wan Bao Zhai as an inn, since they can't afford to offend, naturally to please a lot. It was still a few zhang away from the Canghai Hall, and a faint whisper from the hall suddenly drifted into Wan Han's extremely sensitive ears.
"Zijing, how do you know that Mr. Wu will definitely like the "Lanting Collection Preface"? Although my master also likes that calligraphy very much, and even the only few copies of the fakes in his hand are precious, but maybe that Mr. Wu will also like it. β
Hearing that this was the voice of Jian Jue Qingping, Wan Yan subconsciously stopped, and in an instant, his breathing became vague, almost unheard, he was a smart person, he could know more about other people's secrets, and the benefits in business were inexhaustible.
An indifferent and cold voice came from the hall and said: "I don't know if Mr. Wu likes this copybook, but my mother likes it very much, I told you, although my mother refuses to teach me to read, but she always urges me to learn words, "Lanting Collection Preface" I have copied at least hundreds of times, although some can't understand it, but I can already recite it, since my mother likes it, he will definitely like it, that is, Mr. Wu doesn't like it, and he will definitely buy it back and give it to him. β
"Oh. There was a voice in the hall like waking up from a dream, and a beautiful female voice like flowing water floated and said: "So that's the case, but the current situation is clear who wants to stand out, and will definitely attack from all directions, do you really think that Mr. Wu can easily buy that calligraphy, if the final price is too high, Mr. Wu gives up, and our hope of letting you break the fortune is not in vain." β
"It doesn't matter, no matter who buys it, I'll grab it back, let him steal the chicken and rice, and then sell the painting to Mr. Wu, in short, I have to make him suffer a little. The young man's voice became cold and brutal, and he almost collapsed to the ground with a cold shiver.
The girl's voice sounded: "Zijing, this is not good, although I thought about asking you to be a robber, but if you really do it, I am afraid that it will be a big trouble, and it will not be possible to buy and sell by force, anyway, Mr. Wu saved you once, at most we will not harm him." β
The young man's voice sounded again, and he said with some hesitation: "But didn't you say that you won't let go of any of them?"
The girl's voice sounded eagerly: "In the past, I thought that it didn't matter if I harmed Luo Chengyu, I think he could tolerate it, but now it's different, if you don't want to turn against you, it's better not to go too far." Besides, as long as there is something they want to buy, others will definitely force him to vomit blood, so we don't have to bother too much. β
The young man's voice was slightly aggrieved: "Qingping, you said you wouldn't blame me." β
The girl's delicate complaint suddenly disappeared, and she said after a long time: "Okay, it doesn't matter, if you like to be a robber, then grab more, and now you can go and grab that set of chess pieces, although my sister and I don't like to play chess, but it is not bad to give it to the master in the future, if his old man is still alive." β
