Chapter 158 Love is Just a Word Qiao Shuang'er didn't come back this morning, everyone was waiting for her meal.
Nalan Zhijin lay on the table with dull eyes, "Why hasn't Sister Shuang'er come back yet? Did she meet some acquaintances on the street so she was already eating? Yu is her country, so she should be very happy when she meets familiar people. normal."
"I think you are hungry and want to eat." Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Zhijin with a smile. At this time, he was really like a hungry kitten, pitifully waiting for his owner's answer.
Nalan Zhenqi stood up, "Did something happen to Shuang'er?"
"What can happen to her?" Yue Ya said, "Maybe it's like what Zhijin said and she met her friend. After all, Yubu City is her territory and she shouldn't encounter any danger."
Jing Yirong has been waiting silently. According to the plan, Qiao Shuang'er should have been arrested at this time. The key question is how Ling Yuechong will notify him and let her know that Qiao Shuang'er is in his If Ling Yuechong didn't inform her, she wouldn't be able to make the next step.
Seeing that everyone was tired and hungry, Shen Zhenzhu said, "I think everyone should eat first. Maybe Miss Qiao has already eaten while shopping. I don't think she is the type to starve herself."
"Since you said so, let's get started," Nalan Qingyi said.
Nalan Zhijin nodded repeatedly and couldn't wait to swallow his food as soon as he started talking. Because of this assassin incident, their martial arts training volume has nearly doubled, and they have to go to the palace to accompany Bu Xiguo every morning to insist on his In a weight loss plan, with such a large amount of exercise, he would be hungry every time before meal time.
Nalan Qingyi put a piece of meat on Jing Yirong's bowl, "Yirong, you say the same."
"Yes." Jing Yirong smiled and nodded. As soon as he picked up his rice bowl, a sword came out from the dining table. The method was no different from last time. There was still a piece of white silk tied to the hilt. Jing Yirong put down the bowl in his hand and grabbed it. Everyone pulled off the ribbon in front of them and looked at their hands with serious expressions on their faces.
"What happened?" Nalan Qingyi asked worriedly.
Xiao Yan also spoke, "Is it Ling Yuechong again? What tricks does he want to pull?"
Jing Yirong looked up at Nalan Zhenqi and said slowly, "Qiao Shuang'er was arrested by Ling Yuechong."
"What?!" Nalan Zhenqi stood up in surprise and started to walk out, "I'll save him."
"Stop!" Jing Yirong stopped Nalan Zhenqi, "Do you think you can rescue Qiao Shuang'er now with your martial arts? Or do you want you to be caught again and let me rescue you?" "I... "Nalan Zhenqi was speechless.
Nalan Zhijin looked at Nalan Zhenqi reassuringly, "Brother Qi, don't worry Sister Shuang'er will be fine. She usually only bullies others, so no one can bully her."
Xiao Yan's expression was also solemn. Now this is not the issue of bullying or not as mentioned by Nalan Zhijin. Ling Yuechong captured Qiao Shuang'er simply because he wanted to mess them up. As long as they were messed up, he would have a chance. Take advantage.
Jing Yirong looked at Nalan Zhenqi, "Now there is only one person who can safely and effortlessly rescue Qiao Shuang'er."
"Who?" Nalan Zhenqi asked impatiently.
"King Junqi." Jing Yirong said: "Ling Yuechong holds the military power. If we forcefully break in, we will definitely not be able to defeat him. If we can't defeat him, forget it. If we hurt Qiao Shuang'er again, it will be more than worth the loss. There is only one person who can deal with Ling Yuechong now. People are kings and kings."
"Ling Yuechong is King Junqi's subordinate. Maybe he was the one who instigated this matter. Would it be useful to find him?" Qin Zhonggui also put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands.
Nalan Zhenqi shook his head, "No, this matter will definitely not be instigated by King Junqi."
"Why do you think Master Nalan thinks so?" Qin Zhong asked ashamedly.
Nalan Zhenqi glanced at Yue Ya with some uneasiness in his eyes. He hugged Qiao Shuang'er at the alley last time. Although he rushed to chase Yue Ya later, he clearly remembered that King Junqi also appeared there.
And he always felt that there was an inexplicable feeling between King Junqi and Qiao Shuang'er, "I don't know why I think so. It's just my intuition. Master, I will go find King Junqi now."
"I'll go with you," Jing Yirong stood up.
"We will go with you." Nalan Zhijin, Xiao Yan, and Nalan Qingyi also said in unison.
Jing Yirong shook her head and refused, "No need for you to wait for news at the Prime Minister's Mansion. If we need any help, we need you to respond."
"Okay." Xiao Yan agreed obediently, "Master, please let me know if you need any help."
"Yes." Jing Yirong and Nalan Zhenqi immediately prepared to leave.
Only then did Yue Ya speak, "I'll go with you."
Jing Yirong looked at Nalan Zhenqi, who smiled and extended his hand to Yue Ya. Jing Yirong couldn't help but frown. Qiao Shuang'er might be hurt if the person in your heart is Nalan Zhenqi.
The three of them came to Prince Junqi's Mansion together. The king's health had improved recently, so King Junqi also returned to his mansion. King Junqi only felt strange after hearing what the guard said. If it was Qiao Shuang'er who came to see him, he would still
I would believe it more. Why did these three people come to me?
"No," King Junqi refused.
After hearing the words, the guard walked out. King Junqi stood in the hall with his hands behind his hands, looking at a few clouds in the blue sky. In addition to the throne, he still had other thoughts in his life, but he didn't expect Luo Hua to shed water intentionally.
ruthless.
The guards approached again, "My lord, they are still unwilling to leave. They said they have something important to tell you."
"No." King Junqi still said two words. The guard turned away and muttered in a low voice, "If I had known better, I wouldn't have informed them. All I had to do was mention Qiao Shuang'er. Now I don't even have the chance to mention it."
nothing."
"Wait a minute." King Junqi suddenly stopped the guard, "What did you just say?"
"The villain didn't say anything..."
"explain!"
"They said they came to see the prince about a girl named Qiao Shuang'er. They also said that if the prince really didn't see him, they might never see Qiao Shuang'er in this life." The guard replied tremblingly, blaming himself for his bad mouth.
Why did the prince hear it? The guard was still thinking when he heard an unexpected answer, "Let them come in."
"Yes," the guard hurriedly turned and left. Who is this girl Qiao Shuang'er? How can she have such great charm?
As soon as Jing Yirong and his party entered the hall, King Junqi said, "What do you want to see me for?"
"It's about Shuang'er." Nalan Zhenqi hurriedly said, "Shuang'er is caught and only you can save her."
King Junqi sneered, "Nalan Zhenqi, you have an omnipotent master. Is there anything you need my help with?"
Jing Yirong said nothing, as the drama between these two men did not require his involvement.
"King Junqi is not joking now. If Shuang'er is captured by your subordinate Ling Yuechong, she will be in danger at any time. Only you can save her." Nalan Zhenqi looked anxious.
King Junqi raised his eyebrows, looked at Nalan Zhenqi's anxious look and sneered, "Why should I help you save her?"
"If you are not willing to help me, why did you let us in after hearing Shuang'er's name?" Nalan Zhenqi said sharply: "If King Junqi doesn't care about Shuang'er at all, why would you be willing to see us? So,
If you really wish her well, you should go to the General's Mansion now to find Ling Yuechong to release Qiao Shuang'er.
King Junqi's thoughts were unexpectedly expressed by Nalan Zhenqi in one sentence. In addition to shock, there was also a bit of jealousy. Of course, more of it was the embarrassment and anger of having his secret spied on. "Nalan Zhenqi, you think you understand."
What is this king thinking? Tell you that I will not save Qiao Shuang'er. Her life and death has nothing to do with me. Ling Yuechong is mine. Since he has captured Qiao Shuang'er, he will naturally have his own reasons. If you have the ability, go and save it yourself.
If you don’t have the ability, just wait to collect Qiao Shuang’er’s body!”
"you!"
"Zhenqi!" Jing Yirong interrupted Nalan Zhenqi, "Since King Junqi is not willing to help, we can leave. Shuang'er is still waiting for us to rescue him. Life and death are at stake. If Qiao Shuang'er really
She was destined to suffer this fate. Anyway, she often said that every day she lived was a gift from God, and there was nothing God could do to take it away at any time. The reason why King Junqi was unwilling to help us broke into the General's Mansion in the afternoon
If we can't save Qiao Shuang'er even with all our strength, it will be her life!"
"Master..." Nalan Zhenqi was still unwilling to give up. Yue Ya was listening but felt that something was wrong. Jing Yirong not only told King Junqi what he had done in the afternoon, but also said a bunch of words inexplicably. Could it be that his performance was
Is it actually a bit of bullying to King Junqi to leave?
"Let's go!" Jing Yi's concise words were shocking. Nalan Zhenqi looked helplessly at King Junqi and said the last word, "If anything happens to Shuang'er, I don't care whether you are the mastermind behind it or not, I will settle the score with you.
.”
After saying that, he followed Jing Yirong and left Prince Junqi's Mansion to prepare for the afternoon's action. King Junqi was the only one left in the huge courtyard. He was no longer interested in admiring the clouds. He wondered why Ling Yuechong captured Qiao Shuang'er.
I was puzzled. But then I thought about it and it was not impossible for Yi Qiao Shuang'er's naughty temper to offend Ling Yuechong. But the question is why Ling Yuechong caught her when he could have just killed her? What was the reason for this incident?
What is it?
Thinking about what Jing Yirong said just now, he recalled the scene when Qiao Shuang'er was suffering from the poison. That bright and moving face showed the pain of frowning, and King Junqi's heart tightened. He really wanted to take care of her like that.
Protecting her in his arms, even if the fire all over her body would burn him up, he would not let her go.
It has been nearly a month since the last fire attack. King Junqi clenched his hands tightly together. If Ling Yuechong caught her, her fire attack would... King Jun Qi punched the stone pillar and blood ran down his hand.
The blood was flowing down his back, but he still couldn't stop the fear that emerged in his heart. As long as he thought about that body burning to death, his heart would feel unstoppable pain, as if he had never felt such pain in his life.
Yang Feng approached from behind and handed King Junqi a handkerchief, "Your Majesty, please don't make a decision that you will regret."
King Junqi pushed Yang Feng's hand away and walked forward step by step, as if he didn't hear Yang Feng's words. Yang Feng picked up the handkerchief that had been blown to the ground by the wind and said another sentence to King Junqi's back,
"If she disappears forever today, I will never see her again in this life. What will happen to you, Your Majesty?" King Junqi's figure trembled and his steps stopped. Yang Feng spoke again, but this time it was more like talking to himself.
Said to himself, "Every time I think about it, I realize how happy it is to be able to take a peek at her now and then, because she is right there. Even though we can't be together, I know that she is living well."
The two figures in the courtyard looked a little lonely in the breeze. They probably would not have thought that the best swordsman in the world and the noble King Junqi of the Yu Kingdom would actually be bound by a love and could no longer be free and unrestrained.
