Bai Xiaolou forced a smile, and after a while, his face returned to its usual gentle, jade-like, elegant and indifferent temperament. However, the light and smoke-like temperament of the past was now covered with a layer of mist.
"Alliance? Friend?" Bai Xiaolou chewed the meaning of the words "Mu Liang" softly, and then smiled lightly, "Mu Liang, do you know what it feels like to hear these four words of yours in my ears?"
After hearing his words, Mu Liang lowered his eyes and said nothing.
"That's it, let's go." Bai Xiaolou did not force Mu Liang to tell the truth. However, Mu Liang still cared more about Tuo Bo Kun than he expected. His original plan was that even if Mu Liang cared about Tuo Bo Kun
He was a little moved, but the overall situation was still under his control. He was confident that Mu Liang's heart would turn to his side sooner or later. But now... Did he underestimate Tuobo Kun's status in her mind, or was this
The word "emotion" is inherently elusive. No one can control it and can only let it develop.
Turning his back, Bai Xiaolou ordered in a deep voice to Gao Shan and Yang Zhi, "Everything is in accordance with Mu Liang's wishes. The faults of the two of you will be recorded for the time being and will be punished when you return to the Bai family."
"Thank you, Master!" When Gao Shan and Yang Zhi heard what Bai Xiaolou said, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The reason why they breathed a sigh of relief was because they could keep the young master safe and never leave. The rest was because of the young master.
There are too many things on his mind. They have never seen such a troubled young master!
If things go on like this, what should we do? Thinking about the young master before coming to Beiliao, had he ever had such a deep and helpless expression?
Because of Mu Liang's intercession, Gao Shan and Yang Zhi were able to continue to escort the convoy. Bai Xiaolou rode at the front, followed by Mu Liang's carriage. In the evening, the convoy found a way station and stopped to rest.
After Bai Xiaolou turned over and dismounted, he raised his hand and threw the reins to Gao Shan behind him. Before he could open the curtain of the carriage himself, Mu Liang had already opened the curtain of the carriage and walked out.
Their eyes intertwined, she smiled brightly at Bai Xiaolou, "I've been bored in the car all day, it's so uncomfortable. Come out and get some fresh air."
Bai Xiaolou looked at her with a gentle smile in his eyes. The next moment he lowered his eyes, there was a different meaning in his eyes. But his face was still as gentle as jade and calm.
"Let's rest here for today. There is a mountain road ahead, and there is no village or shop in the back." Bai Xiaolou said, while reaching out to pull Mu Liang around the carriage, Mu Liang pretended not to see it.
, his body flashed around to the other side, walking side by side with Bai Xiaolou.
Bai Xiaolou smiled indifferently, "I always forget that you have recovered your inner strength and still think you are the same person you were before."
"Actually, I'm still the same person I was before. Except that my inner strength has recovered to the ninth level, nothing else has changed." Mu Liang chatted with him all the time. It seemed like they were chatting about common things, but in fact, they both understood each other.
Heart, what the other party cares about, what to avoid. Try to avoid sensitive words... Sometimes when smart people talk to each other, although there are fewer hints and temptations, on the simplest issues, they often end up seeing the moon in the mirror.
Just let it sit there without breaking.
Mu Liang followed Bai Xiaolou into the inn. Although the inn was simple, the environment was quiet and quiet. It was also kept clean. Mu Liang and Bai Xiaolou's rooms were next to each other. Bai Xiaolou sent Mu Liang into the room and told her to have a good rest.
, and left first.
In the room, Mu Liang wiped his face, took off the red hairpin jewelry on his head, and took off all the pearls on his body. In this way, he felt relaxed.
Looking around, the next moment, he said coldly, "Come out! How long do you want to hide?" As Mu Liang's voice fell, a petite figure flashed out from the darkness, a man dressed in coarse cloth and men's clothing.
Some beeswax was smeared on the face as a cover, but how could such a simple disguise be hidden from Mu Liang's eyes.
Looking at those big eyes rolling around in depression, Mu Liang sneered and said lightly,
"And where are your accomplices? Can you run away alone?" As Mu Liang's voice fell, the figure of Silver Fox flashed out of the darkness again.
Mu Liang glanced at the two of them, lowered his eyes and said nothing, with a pale face, showing no emotion. The more this happened, the more frightened Wen Shuo and Yin Hu were opposite him! Yin Hu felt that this Fourth Miss Nalan's
Sometimes the aura is stronger than that of Wang! Wang's strength is all in the open, it is natural, and it has been developed over the years. But the Fourth Miss is just the opposite. The more calm and casual, An Ran and indifferent, the more giving
An invisible and huge oppressive atmosphere.
Wenshuo couldn't help but stick out his tongue and explained obediently,
"Sister Mu Liang... I was able to successfully escape from marriage this time because of the secret help of the emperor." Wenshuo still likes to call Mu Liang sister, always feeling that the title of aunt unreasonably undermines the friendship between her and Mu Liang.
Zoomed out.
Mu Liang picked up the white jade cup on the side, took a sip of the fragrant tea, lazily raised his eyelids, and did not say anything just to let the two of them continue to explain.
"I went out of the city with my sister this time. Because the emperor's uncle had entrusted Wenshuo's mother to take care of Wenshuo earlier, Wenshuo... shamelessly went to the emperor's hidden guard branch in Kyoto. It happened that Silver Fox was on the job again.
Silver Fox Feige sent a letter to the emperor's uncle, and I did the rest according to the emperor's uncle's instructions. The emperor's uncle meant that if I leave, no matter where I go, it will not be safe. The only way is to follow my sister all the way.
safe."
After Wen Shuo finished speaking, Mu Liang finally said something with a cold face,
"He extended Bo Kun just for his own peace of mind! This is not because you are safe, but because you are always paying attention to my movements, he feels at ease!"
Mu Liang's words made Yinhu want to say yes in his heart! But he still had to put on an expression on his face that Wang really didn't mean that! But under the gaze of Mu Liang's cold eyes, Yinhu couldn't help but want to say yes!
All he could do was hang his head in embarrassment and whisper,
"Fourth Miss, Wang will be able to come out of Huaqing Pool in about ten days. Wang asks Fourth Miss to wait for him to leave the Nameless Valley! By then... if he wants to be beaten or killed, Fourth Miss can take action."
Yinhu's words elicited a ruthless sneer from Mu Liang,
"Don't. I'm afraid I'll get my hands dirty. You can leave first!" Mu Liang waved his hand to Yinhu to get out. Yinhu hadn't finished what Takubo Kun had told him, but when he came into contact with Mu Liang's cold eyes
, Silver Fox swallowed back what he said, clasped his fists, and jumped out of the window.
In the huge room, Mu Liang was sitting on the Xiang Fei chair, with his eyes lowered and silent. The corners of his lips were raised in an arc, half-smiling. Looking at Wen Shuo opposite, he looked like he had eaten a bitter melon.
"Sister Mu Liang, I..."
"You were sent here by Yinhu just an hour ago. So what happened before? Since you didn't go with me, you naturally went to find that man. What did he say?" Mu Liang took the initiative to ask Wen Shuo.
, which was indeed beyond Wenshuo's expectation. In her impression, Mu Liang and Takubo Kun were exactly the same in one thing. At their core, they both had a high-minded attitude that had nothing to do with themselves.
Now that Mu Liang took the initiative to ask, Wen Shuo felt a little flattered. While wiping the greasy beeswax on his face, he murmured softly,
"Sister, why do you ask this?"
"I just want to watch a joke." Mu Liang said something coldly, and Wen Shuo suddenly had the urge to hit a wall. The corner of her mouth twitched fiercely. She didn't even shed a tear in front of Ji Rufeng just now. Now,
But I just wish I could hit him to death!
No wonder even the emperor's uncle bows to her! This Fourth Miss Nalan is really a master of holding a knife and slicing your unsuspecting heart with a smile! And the knife is still blunt, and it goes in and out.
Come out, double the pain and torture.
Wen Shuo swallowed his saliva and ran to sit next to Mu Liang. Mu Liang glanced sideways at her, but he wasn't too mean to her and poured her a cup of hot tea.
Wen Shuo held a slightly hot white jade cup and slowly lowered his eyes. The heat in the cup filled his pupils. Not only did the beeswax get into his eyes, but the disguise just now was no longer able to be pretended at this moment. Wen Shuo's eyes were filled with fluttering.
Crystal teardrops rolled down, and light water splashes splashed into the amber liquid in the cup.
"Ji Rufeng said that he could postpone the wedding for me. But he asked me to do one thing. If he did it, he would be with me again."
"It turns out to be Ji Rufeng..." Mu Liang blinked, and the name had already taken shape in his mind. Ji Rufeng, one of the four young masters, was the only one whose identity remained a mystery.
So far, there are different opinions about his origin, but in the end, it has never been recognized by Ji Rufeng himself. Some people say that he is a down-and-out young man who came out of the Xueyuan tribe, and he was the eldest son of the Ji family who was as famous as the Bai family in the Xueyuan tribe. Others say that he
He is actually a bastard born from an affair between a princess from the Eighteen Tribe Alliance and a guard, and his identity is shady.
As for Ji Rufeng, the most famous thing is his romantic nature. Regarding his romantic affair, there are rumors in the world, various gossips in teahouses and taverns, and storytellers under the overpass. Who is the true or false?
Can you explain it clearly?
I heard that Ji Rufeng washed her hands in the golden basin a year ago and stopped being that romantic young man! She disappeared from the world for a while, but it turned out that she quietly went to Beiliao and hooked up with the princess! Mu Liang unconsciously curled his lips,
Wen Shuo's temperament seems to be a good match for He Jie. One is cunning on the outside and ruthless on the inside, and the other is rice-fat on the outside and deep on the inside. Tsk tsk! If these two get married, I'm afraid their lives will be like earthquakes every day.
The thrilling days of coming and going as the mountains shake!
"Yes, Ji Rufeng. Ji Rufeng, the romantic young master with the most notorious reputation among the four young masters."
After finishing speaking, Wen Shuo put down the cup in his hand, quickly wiped away the tears on the corners of his lips, and told Mu Liang a very clichéd story.
"Three years ago, Ji Rufeng was deceived by close relatives and friends to come to Kyoto, Northern Liaoning. She was ambushed and finally had no way to escape to the palace. I rescued him, and after that, he stayed in the palace to recover. Because the enemies outside were absolutely unacceptable.
I would believe that Ji Rufeng would hide in the palace. He suffered serious internal injuries and it took him almost two years to recover. When I first saw him, he was covered in blood and lying under the peonies in the imperial garden.
, underneath him was a large white peony flower that was crushed by his body. At that moment, I couldn’t see his facial features clearly. I was still young, and my first instinct was to scream, but that scream didn’t even have time to come out.
I heard him say,
You are the most beautiful person I have ever seen... Hehe, now that I think about it, I am stupid, how can I believe what a man said to save his life! Even if he was half breathed at the time, he could see at the first sight that I was very
Wealth comes with wealth, knowing that I can help him in the future. So I...I was tempted. I tried my best to help him recover his inner strength. In order to give him the thousand-year ginseng that he wanted to bring to the palace, I really did not hesitate to hurt my own body and let my father.
Because I was seriously ill, he gave me Millennium Ginseng as a reward... He knew all this, and I always thought that the touch in his eyes and the love words he said were true.
It wasn't until a year ago that a woman came to the palace to look for him. That night, I didn't know that the reason why he was being hunted by his enemies was because of this woman...a married woman. I don't understand why a married woman still
A woman who has a child will be so dear to his heart. That night, he followed that woman... He told me that there was no such thing as eternal oaths, sweet words, love as strong as gold... that one person would be his for the rest of his life.
He lied to me to save his life.
In my bedroom, he kept yelling at me... he called me mean, called me stupid, called me not like a woman at all. He faced me every day, and after two years of this, he didn't even have the slightest thought of wanting me.
No...he is the romantic young man Ji Rufeng. He can fall in love with a woman with just a glance. He has been guarding me for two years but has not felt anything at all. He said...I am too bad...Haha, sister Mu Liang, I don't.
It occurred to me that when the woman who came to see him saw how he treated me, she slapped him three times, leaving half of his face bloody. She said that if she had known that he had such a person beside me, she would never show up.
...She said, I'm sorry, and then left...
After Ji Rufeng saw that woman leaving, she scolded me like crazy, saying that I had ruined everything for him... Only then did I understand, it turns out... everything about Ji Rufeng was that woman, even if she got married.
Even if she has another man's child, as long as she is still her, everything about Ji Rufeng exists for her..."
Wen Shuo was already crying when she said this... The corners of her lips were curved with a smile, but tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes. The tears hit the dry ground, splashing bitter white lotus flowers.
When Mu Liang heard this, his heart was inexplicably blocked. He put down the cup and handed Wen Shuo a silk handkerchief, asking her to wipe the flowered little face that could not see its original appearance.
"Does he have any difficulties?" Mu Liang's cold voice whispered in Wenshuo's ears.
Wenshuo sniffed and said in a hoarse voice, "I think so too. But I have never seen anyone as stubborn as him. Over the past year, I have kept recalling every bit of what he did to me.
The many times of being touched and tempted should not be fake. I don’t want to be with him now. He always said that to me. He personally tore up all the beauty between us. Even if the beauty in the past was a mirage, it would still be a mirage.
It once brought me the greatest touch and satisfaction. Now, I just want to know whether he showed true love in the past two years from three years ago to one year ago! Regardless of whether he did or not, I will not be with him.
Together! I just want to know the answer..."
"So what if you know it? What do you want it to do with this kind of answer?" Mu Liang's voice became increasingly cold and biting.
Wenshuo's story is indeed very cliched and bloody! It's so bloody that Mu Liang can't help but want to curse! But what about the love disaster she experienced in modern times? Isn't it different from Wenshuo's?
But Wen Shuo still had the courage to ask for an answer in the end. She was deceived and hurt at that time, and she didn't want to listen to that man's explanation at all... Even if he said it before he died, his initial use was lost to his final temptation.
Liang still doesn't believe it! She stubbornly believes that use is use! No matter whether she is tempted or not, this is not true love at all!
Which beautiful relationship is based on use and harm at the beginning?
That person knew what the final result would be at the beginning, but he jumped in with self-righteousness! In the end, he fell in love with her and the mission failed. He told her that in fact, it was because he fell in love with her that he deliberately exposed the flaw and failed the mission.
!Just to confess everything and get her forgiveness!
But can this save anything? When she was dragged into the opponent's eagle den and beaten and abused, he looked down at her weak body from above. At that time, she swore that this man must die! And he must die in the most miserable way!
But in the end...why did she feel pain?
Not only did it hurt, but the pain and unwillingness were brought into this life! In this different time and space, there was a Tuo Bo Kun who opened the knot in her heart... But in the end, whether she could completely let go of the knot in her heart depended on herself!
When Wen Shuo saw that Mu Liang was silent, he muttered in a low voice, "Sister Mu Liang, if Ji Rufeng has a hard time, then at least in the future, when I get old and there is no one around me, at least I will still have the best of those two years."
Beautiful memories. But if those two years were really used and played by him, then I told myself that I missed it and hated it. No matter how painful it was, I had to let it go! I don’t want to be alone when I get old in the future.
A person worthy of my waiting and missing, I want to live a thousand times happier than him! I know I am gambling, I am taking a risk...but...I really don't believe that those two years...it was me who was stupid
