MTL - After the Big Guy Wears the Abusive Text-Chapter 42 you are avoiding me
In the hall, Ye Youqing sat bored, watching the steam in the tea in front of him gradually thinning, while the maid stepped forward to replace her with new tea, but she reached out her hand to stop it.
"No need." Ye Youqing said, and turned to admire the fiery red pomegranate flower at the corner of the table.
She heard the news of Qin Wang's conviction yesterday. She was overjoyed and wanted to come and see Cike. By the way, as she said, she sent the items that fell to the government.
When Liang Guogong returned to the mansion, he was furious at her, scolding her for acting privately, disregarding the overall situation, and being daring, and almost imprisoned her. Locked her up for two days.
I just went out now.
Being in ancient times was like this, it was very easy to become unfree, Ye Youqing sighed, fortunately, it was not all good, yesterday Agou sent a message through Qinxin, saying that Pei Ning has agreed to cooperate , and set off south today, to the rest of the rich land.
"Miss Ye, I'm tired of waiting." Zhou Ziqiu said with a smile.
"No problem." Ye Youqing shook her head and looked behind her.
"Ci Ke didn't want to enter the hall, and was waiting in the courtyard." Zhou Ziqiu seemed helpless, his chin raised towards the outside of the hall.
Ye Youqing slowed down, wondering why she was nervous.
"Ci Ke." She spoke softly, lest it disturb the tranquility.
"Why is Miss Ye looking for me?" Ci Ke looked back, she was smiling, but she couldn't say it calmly, as if there was an invisible film on her face.
Ye Youqing felt that her tongue was a little knotted, she coughed lightly, raised her legs and stepped forward: "It's nothing, just bring the things you left in the house."
"It's all personal stuff, it's not easy to deal with it privately, it's better to send it back." Ye Youqing said lightly, she took another step forward, and clearly saw that Ci Ke stepped back slightly, always keeping equal to her. distance.
Ye Youqing suddenly felt dissatisfaction in her heart, and took two steps forward. This time, Cie Ke touched the tree trunk behind him, and she couldn't move back.
The woman's smiling eyes also lowered, and said, "Miss Ye, what are you doing?"
Ye Youqing looked at Cike, she didn't seem to have changed anything, and it seemed that nothing had changed, such a deliberate avoidance and alienation, a fool would not see it.
"What's the matter." Ye Youqing said warmly, "You are hiding from me."
"I don't have it. Although I have regained my identity, it is not easy to leave the palace by staying with my aunt..." Ci Ke said in a low voice.
"I mean now, you are hiding from me." Ye Youqing knew that the more angry she was, the calmer she became, and her tone was not too turbulent. Standing still, he stretched out his hand to lift the flower branch in front of the two, so that Ci Ke's eyebrows were completely exposed.
There was a trace of panic in her eyes, as if she didn't want to look at Ye Youqing, and kept her head down.
Ye Youqing took a deep breath, she really had the illusion of hitting cotton with her fist, not to mention she couldn't hit at all.
"Farewell..."
"Miss Ye." Ci Ke finally raised the volume, she waved Ye Youqing's hand away, letting the flower branch hang down again to block the other's face.
One side, with his back facing Ye Youqing.
There was a long silence behind him, and finally a shallow apology.
After a long time, Cike couldn't hear any movement before turning back across the trunk. There was already no one behind him. A fiery red pomegranate flower was thrown on the ground, with traces of fingers twisted on it.
It's like an empty heart.
The woman who was quite snarky just now, now slowly crouches down and picks up the flower.
"You don't need to be sorry." She whispered to herself, with a shallow sob, "It's me who is not good."
The sound of footsteps and the sound of the skirt dragging over the fallen leaves, Cike raised her head quickly, but it was Zhou Ziqiu who caught her eye, she averted her eyes and blinked away the water vapor that was almost seeping out.
"Aunt," she said.
Zhou Ziqiu, who witnessed everything, felt a little distressed on her face. She pursed her red lips, covered her eyelashes to block her eyes, then lowered her head and patted Cike on the shoulder.
"Actually, you don't have to cut off the involvement like this, I see that Miss Ye doesn't seem to have any other intentions."
Ci Ke shook his head and said nothing.
She has to cut through the mess quickly, she's afraid she can't help it.
Ye Youqing walked out of the palace like a gust of wind, did not go back to the palace, nor went to Jinling Zhai, but found an open-air restaurant in Fangshi, asked for a pot of wine, alone drink up.
The square market during the day is mostly filled with people from the rivers and lakes. From time to time, a few shirtless men walk in with their harnesses on their backs, shouting loudly, and the pedestrians and hawkers on the street are extremely Lots of fireworks.
Ye Youqing watched a pair of men and women quarrel on the side of the road, and she was fascinated, and felt a little better, but the voices of the shirtless men behind her suddenly became noisy, always going to her ears Drill inside.
As a last resort, Ye Youqing shifted her attention and stretched her ears out there.
"Have you heard about King Sirong?"
"You got the news late, the two were vindicated, and the government posted a notice!" Someone on the side didn't care.
"
"Huanglong Mountain?" Everyone who heard it was shocked.
"Isn't Huanglong Mountain close to the boundary of Xixia? Xixia has been in chaos for many years, is it possible that there will be another war?" Some people wondered.
"It's not a war, it's just a small team of officers and soldiers, it should be looking for something."
"Where did you hear the news, is it reliable?"
"Bah, when did I miss the news, don't forget who my sister-in-law is, who only watches the military camp for the royal family, it's more real than real gold." Po Gong's voice looked around. , "Also, it seems to be related to King Sirong."
"Isn't King Sirong dead for seven years, he will never come back to life?"
"It's not King Sirong himself, anyway, it's related to him. I don't know the rest. You should listen to the music and don't go out." The wine bowl on the table, "Come, come, drink and drink!"
There was still noise over there, Ye Youqing rubbed her ears, put down the glass of wine she hadn't drank, and stared at the street in front of her.
In the past few days, she couldn't help but have a bold guess, the graceful pendant around her neck might really be a token of summoning the missing iron cavalry, so Qin Wang wanted to get the graceful pendant, so he Do you also want to include that team of iron cavalry?
She suddenly thought of the original book, Qin Wang finally led his troops to the border, won many battles, and even won a small battle number, so it is very likely that he robbed the original owner Fenghua fell, and found that team of iron cavalry first?
She couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows. This made things even more bizarre. If the emperor suddenly learned of the whereabouts of the iron cavalry team, the news would most likely come from Qin Wang.
Thinking of this, Ye Youqing narrowed her eyes, although everything is just her own guess, but her plan needs to be ahead of schedule.
.
It's been only a year and a half since Zhao Qingrou died in the winter in the book, by the way, and Cike.
The big ship of fate is destined to head towards the storm, but this time with her, she will try to change the course.
Drinking the remaining wine, Ye Youqing threw a few copper plates on the table, got up and left.
The mansion was very calm. She chatted with her in Zhao Qingrou's room for a while. Seeing that Zhao Qingrou's complexion became more and more rosy and normal, and her thin body became plump again, she felt in her heart. Immediately pleased.
Go back to the room at night, take a hot bath, wash away the dryness and heat, and then fall asleep.
The dream is not peaceful, it is full of broken fragments, unfamiliar mountains and forests, women cry and struggle under the minions of beasts, in the palace by the mountains and rivers, singing and dancing are peaceful.
A toast to everyone.
The woman in red fell from the cliff, and the soft body fell into the cloud and mist, and disappeared...
Ye Youqing woke up suddenly, her body bounced, she suddenly lifted the thin quilt, her body washed before going to bed was full of sweat, she took a deep breath of the night wind blowing in from the window, waiting for her heartbeat to calm down.
Although it is just a dream, each picture is too real, as if it is a fragment of the original work that I have seen before.
But isn't that next summer, why are you so nervous now?
Ye Youqing muttered, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and lay down again, but she couldn't fall asleep no matter how much she tossed and turned, she always felt like a stone was hanging in her heart, she just felt at risk.
The door was unlocked, so she pushed it open, and when she entered the door, she smelled the strong aroma of wine, knowing that she would leave the wine cellar after ten miles, so she went to the backyard.
As expected, the door of the wine cellar was wide open, and the smell was very intoxicating, Ye Youqing walked in lightly, and saw a black suit beside the piles of wine jars.
Seems to hear the movement, Shili turned over alertly, and was going to touch the knife at his waist, but he could see Ye Youqing's figure clearly by the moonlight outside the door, and he was relieved.
"Xiaoqing?" She asked in surprise, "Why are you here if you don't sleep in the mansion in the middle of the night?"
"Can't sleep." Ye Youqing walked up to her, took the secretly filled jug from her hand, and poured a few sips into her mouth. Not too strong, but rather mellow with a sour taste.
"What's on your mind?" Shili said firmly, and walked to the steps outside and sat down.
Ye Youqing remembered her dream, rubbed her temples, hesitated before speaking.
"In a few days, the emperor will go to the palace to escape the summer heat, and Cike and the imperial concubine may be in danger."
