Chapter 125: What is Loyalty?
"I have already sent the information of the Trojan Marquis Mansion to Feng Qiong, and I have also told you what you requested. The gray-clad young man stepped out from behind the bookshelf and stood five steps away from the bloody tears.
Bloody Tears looked up at him: "When did you come?"
Gong Wei said: "I came here when I saw Childe leave, and I won't be noticed by Childe." ”
Bloody Tears said, "That's good," and asked, "Is Zhongli there?" and what did she say?"
Gong Wei said: "She's not in the main xuan, probably which branch she went to to sort out the information." I left a letter telling her to try to contact Mo Zhicough, and she would reply when she saw it. ”
Bloody Tears nodded to indicate that he understood, put the list aside, and leaned back comfortably: "It's just right, talk about the plan of the Stygian Valley." What are your thoughts?"
Gong Wei was stunned: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be discussed with Xuanyuan?"
Blood and tears said: "Xuanyuan Yin is responsible for the construction of the organ, and Shallow Scar is responsible for the task distribution of these people who already exist in the valley and the arrangement of food and accommodation for these new people. In addition to being in charge of the affairs outside the valley as before, you and I will be responsible for finding out the details of these people, and formulating a plan for their training and deployment. ”
Gong Wei frowned, but did not speak.
Bloody Tears asked, "Why?"
Gong Wei shook his head: "I completely obey the order in this matter, and I have no other thoughts." But...... As a subordinate of Childe, but hiding from Childe to do things that are not good for Childe, I feel that I am betraying. ”
"Betrayal?" Bloody Tears looked up in surprise, interested, "Then what are you going to do? Do you continue to hide it? Stop, or tell them about it?"
Gong Wei sighed, his eyes looked a little confused: "I just want to know, who my master is and who I should do things for." ”
There was a slight smile in the eyes of blood and tears: "Tang Xiaoyu, my father, or the son of Tsing Yi?" A soft laugh came out of his nose: "Or, what kind of behavior do you think can be regarded as loyal to the master?"
The palace was silent.
Blood and tears said lightly: "I just finished what my brother didn't want to do, but had to do without his knowledge." Not embarrassing your master is what you should do, right?"
Gong Wei clenched his fists, slowly released them, and knelt down on one knee: "My subordinates understand." ”
Blood tears said: "If you understand, go quickly, watch Xiao Cough return to the puppet palace smoothly, and come back to see me." There are many things to do in the valley of the underworld, so don't delay it too long. ”
Gong Wei nodded silently: "I understand." His shoulders shook, and the gray shadow flickered and vanished.
Blood and tears curled up in the quilt, his eyes looked in one direction through the window paper, and the smile on the corner of his lips was bitter: "You can't have both fish and bear's paws...... The two are involved, and it is inevitable to give up one to protect the other. Zhao Qingyan can only temporarily wronged you. ”
Mu Qinghan's left cheek was coated with a thick ointment, and the burns on his body were also carefully bandaged. The incense burner in the corner of the house burned soothing incense, but Mu Qinghan did not sleep peacefully.
Zhao Qingyan sat down on the edge of the bed, took her hand to check the pulse, and turned her head slightly to look at Lang Zhong behind her: "Have you taken all the medicine I prescribed for her?"
Lang Zhong nodded, and couldn't help but praise again: "Childe's medical skills are really good, this girl's condition has improved greatly compared to yesterday." It's just that I can't feed anything, otherwise the situation would be better. ”
Pell muttered, "Isn't it because you quacks misdiagnosed?"
"Pelle, be careful. Zhao Qingyan scolded lightly, looked at Mu Qinghan, who was pale on the bed, and sighed silently, "You stand down, I'll take a look at her situation here." ”
Lang Zhong knew that he was talking to himself, so he hurriedly answered and retreated, not forgetting to cover the door.
Zhao Qingyan looked at the sad face of the woman in front of her in her sleep, and couldn't help but reach out to comb the broken hair on her forehead, and then smoothed the sadness between her eyebrows with the back of her hand. Zhao Qingyan quietly looked at this face, which was burned but beautiful but had not lost much, her eyes were light, but her lips, which had been tight for many days, were a little loose. He didn't speak, nor did he move too much, but he just took the trouble to smooth the woman's eyebrows over and over again, so as to relieve the sadness and sorrow in each other's hearts.
Time passed, a long, long time.
"Wen Lun, don't go. The silence was broken by a woman's murmur, but everyone's faces changed slightly.
Pei'er said: "Young master, she ......"
"I hear you. Zhao Qingyan's face was also a little pale, and he interrupted Pei'er's words lightly, and was about to get up and leave.
"Wen Lun, don't go, I'm afraid, don't go!" The woman on the bed seemed to be able to feel that the person who soothed her eyebrows was leaving, and she made a loud noise, with a little pathos in her voice, a few tears oozed from the corners of her eyes, and she grabbed the sleeve at hand with panic on her face.
Zhao Qingyan's sleeve was grabbed, so he stopped, looked back at his sleeve that was grabbed, and pulled it out a little harder.
"Dad, mother, Ziyu, don't leave me ......" Mu Qinghan spit out a slurred sentence again, with anxiety and crying in his voice, like a child.
Zhao Qingyan's movements stopped suddenly, her light-colored lips pursed tightly unconsciously, and the indifference between her eyebrows loosened a little. After hesitating for a long time, he still gently held the slightly trembling hand that held him, and said in a low voice: "I'm not leaving, I'll accompany you, sleep in peace." The cold hand wrapped around the colder hand, but drove away the trembling.
"Young Master!" Hearing him speak, Pei'er and Ran Haoxuan both changed color greatly. Zhao Qingyan's voice was not his own voice at all! Pei'er couldn't hear whose voice it was, but Ran Haoyan knew that it was Wen Lun's voice!
Zhao Qingyan made a silent gesture to them, gently pulled his sleeve out of Mu Qinghan's fingertips, then held her hand and sat down again, wiping away the tears from the corners of Mu Qinghan's eyes with his other hand.
"Ziyu, is it you?" may have been because his consciousness was too vague, and the fingers held by Zhao Qingyan moved slightly after a while, and he spoke softly.
Zhao Qingyan's eyes struggled a little, but in the end, she comforted her softly with a warm voice: "It's me, I'm here." ”
Seeing his young master facing his wife who had not passed through the door, learning from another man's voice to slowly comfort him, there was a trace of unbearability in the eyes of Ran Haoxuan and Pei'er. I want to stop it, but I can't stop it.
Outside, a young man in white leaned against the wall, listened to the sound in the house for a while, raised his lips and smiled, and then walked away a few steps, and continued to rest against the wall where the conversation in the house could not be heard.
"Pelle. After a long time, waiting for Mu Qinghan to sleep comfortingly, Zhao Qingyan slowly got up and commanded in a low voice, "You stay and take care of Miss Mu, don't tell anyone what happened today." ”
Pei'er was stunned and a little reluctant, but she still obediently agreed: "Yes, don't worry, young master, Pei'er understands the depths." ”
Zhao Qingyan stopped in front of her, raised his hand and pressed her head, with a little helplessness in his smile: "I know you are unhappy, but she is destined to be my wife and the princess of the Qi Palace." ”
Pei'er flattened her mouth: "I'm not worth it for the young master." ”
"Isn't it worth it?" Zhao Qingyan didn't know if she had listened to it, but just smiled lightly, "Silly Pei'er, how can there be so much value and worthlessness? The eldest lady of Mufu is my wife, I have to marry her, it's as simple as that." It doesn't matter who I like or who she likes. In the final analysis, it's just for the 'name' of that couple. ”
Pei'er said in a low voice, "I don't want to see the young master unhappy. ”
Zhao Qingyan smiled lightly: "I'm not unhappy, it's just that my body is still a little uncomfortable." No one persecuted us in this family business, it was the result of our own choice. I'm content with that, at least not being forced. He pinched her face again, and said half-jokingly: "You are also a big girl, and you can get married in a few years." If you have someone you like, just tell me, the young master will prepare a rich dowry for you. Finding someone you love is also someone who is willing to love you, you know? Finding someone who is willing to love you is a hundred times better than finding someone you love. ”
Pei'er whispered: "At least I can choose to love someone, but someone who is willing to love me will love me." ”
Zhao Qingyan didn't understand, and asked casually, "What did you say?"
Pei'er bit her lip and said a little louder: "If I find someone I love, I also believe that he will hurt me." But what if he doesn't want to marry me? I'm just a little maidservant, so what qualifications do I have to find the right person?"
Zhao Qingyan was stunned for a moment, and smiled a little surprised: "When did you have someone you like?"
Pell puffed out, "Not yet." I just want to...... With my status, I can only marry a servant, right? The young master said so much, what can I ask for? Maybe in a few years, the young master will casually give me a promise to anyone I don't know. ”
Zhao Qingyan touched her hair distressedly, and said softly: "No, definitely not." If you have a loving person, just say to me, I will do my best to help you. Pell is so beautiful, she will definitely find a good family. ”
Pei'er stared at him with wide eyes: "Why is the young master suddenly weird? You don't plan to send Pei'er out to get married, right?
Although Zhao Qingyan knew that she was pretending, she couldn't help but comfort: "How could it be? Although Pei'er likes to do bad things, she is disobedient, she is stupid, and she doesn't care about her young master...... But I'm still reluctant to get you away. I won't let you go until I can find someone who won't let Pell be wronged. ”
Pei'er said angrily: "Young master, you are talking nonsense! You bully me!"
Zhao Qingyan smiled: "How can there be?
Pei'er was stunned, and her mouth pouted: "At least I don't care about the young master!"
Zhao Qingyan smiled, and made a joke in a long tone: "Yes, yes, Pei'er cares about the young master the most, and she has never not cared, so it's always okay, right?"
Pei'er grimaced: "As long as the young master doesn't kick me out of the mansion, I'll be satisfied." Let's go, I still have to change Miss Mu's dressing. ”
Zhao Qingyan nodded, stopped laughing with her, and reminded: "Close the doors and windows tightly, don't let the wind hit her." ”
Pei'er nodded: "Well, I'll pay attention." ”
