The end of the volume 16.
Luo Yun only gives her a sneaky glance, but she keenly catches him, feeling embarrassed, he turned his eyes to another direction with a cold face, and hurriedly found a direction and left.
“Hey!” Qiu Yue calls in the back.
Luo Yun stands still.
Qiu Yue walks up to him and looks up at him unconvinced, “Where are you going?”
Luo Yun doesn’t say a word, as if disdain to talk to her, he doesn’t even look at her.
Qiu Yue seems determined to fight him to the end, holding her head high, staring into his eyes and waiting for him to speak.
It was a long time before Luo Yun said badly, “get out of the way.”
“Hmph, want to hide from me? Not so easy.”
“Get out of the way.”
Qiu Yue stretched out her right hand and spread out his palm.
“What?” Luo Yun frowns.
“Give me back.”
“What else?”
“My little handkerchief, I washed it the day before yesterday, and hung it on a bamboo pole at the back of the yard, and you stole it.”
Luo Yun glances at her and it’s eerie.
Qiu Yue can’t help but shrinking her neck.
Luo Yun grits his teeth, “I didn’t steal it.”
“Really?” Qiu Yue’s voice softened a bit because of his terrible gaze, not as fierce as he was at the beginning, looking suspiciously at the swordsman who exudes coldness in front of her, “So why would anyone tell me that he saw you hide a sky-blue handkerchief?”
“It fell on the ground and I found it.”
“Even if it fell on the ground, it’s mine too.” Qiu Yue also grits her teeth and stares at the almond eyes, “Don’t you know it’s my handkerchief?”
“I know.”
Qiu Yue deosn’t expect him to be so honest, he admits it frankly, without any sophistry, she can’t help but softened her tone, bit her lower lip and whispers while looking down, “Since you know it, why don’t you give it back to me?”
“I hate talking to fierce women.”
Qiu Yue immediately looks up in anger. “Who is a fierce woman?”
As soon as she touched her line of sight, Luo Yun immediately turned his head to one side and made a rough voice, “get out of the way.”
It’s strange, although it’s a small road, he also doesn’t know how he can be stopped by Qiu Yue. His swordsmanship is high and his body is agile that he can’t be stopped by ten Qiu Yues, but he seems to have been nailed by his feet, standing still and insist Qiu Yue to get out of his way.
Qiu Yue is furious. “If you return my handkerchief, I’ll get out of the way, otherwise, you can’t escape today.”
Luo Yun says impatiently, “Are you still lacking a handkerchief?”
“Are you still not giving it back?” Qiu Yue stands where she can face Luo Yun again, facing Luo Yun’s eyes. The two are like a cock fighting, confronted each other the strong one and the weak one and coldly silent for a long time. Luo Yun slowly withdraw his sight, finally takes out a clean sky-blue handkerchief from his arms, and silently hand it to Qiu Yue.
Qiu Yue is filled with unknown resentment, she pulls it over and throws the handkerchief she had embroidered herself to the ground and grits her teeth.
Luo Yun watches indifferently, seeing that she has stomped enough and stopped gasping for breath, then he says “I already knew it.”
Qiu Yue almost jumps up and asks sharply, “You know? What do you know?”
Luo Yun shuts up and snorts.
Qiu Yue glances at him fiercely, regardless of the beloved handkerchief which had been trampled beyond recognition on the ground, she turns and walks towards the inner room.
After walking a few steps, it seems that there’s still some anger left, and then suddenly turns around.
Hadn’t spoken yet, she startled by the dark shadow behind her at an unknown time, just as she about to exclaim, her arms already tightly held by two powerful hands, pulled forward, and bumped into the man’s strong chest.
“You……”
The hot lips pressed hard.
The following exclaim and whimper drown in the fitted lips.
Qiu Yue stares wide-eyed in surprise and looks at the handsome killer who has almost become a complete stranger.
Her whole strength seem to be taken away by those cold and passionate eyes.
The Great King and Duke Ming are making a noise in the room and Rong Hu guards calmly outside the door as usual.
Luo Yun comes to him silently and stands silently.
“How?” Rong Hu asks lowly.
Luo Yun shakes his head.
Rong Hu is slightly surprised, “haven’t you tell her yet?”
Luo Yun opens his mouth half-heartedly and replied in a low voice, “Let’s say that i did.”
“What did you say?”
“I didn’t say a word.”
Rong Hu’s eyebrows tightened, “Are you playing crossword with me? What did you do without saying a word?”
Luo Yun says coolly, “I kissed her.”
“What?”
Realizing that his volume was a bit louder, Rong Hu immediately shut his mouth vigilantly and observes the Great King and Duke Ming in the room are not alarmed, and then lowered his voice. “I want you not to keep it to yourself, but I didn’t ask you to… that… aih, how did Qiu Yue react after the kiss?”
“Very angry.”
Rong Hu sighs.That’s for sure, Qiuyue’s temper is not much better than that of a tigress, not to mention she has always been fierce and rude to Luo Yun. No matter how many times Qiu Lan and Qiu Xing said Qiu Yue would be interested in Luo Yun, he was not sure anyway.
She might have been interested in the past, but now it’s all ruined by Luo Yun’s impatience.
After a long time, Rong Hu pats Luo Yun’s shoulder, comfort him seriously, “Don’t take it too seriously, find a way to calm her down in the future. If Lie Er is here, it would be best to ask him about this kind of thing.” Thinking of his brother’s whereabouts have not been determined, Rong Hu’s face appeared sad and dull for a while before he asked Luo Yun, “How angry is Qiu Yue?”
“She said,” Luo Yun frowns slightly anxious. “If I dare tell this to others, she will kill me.”
Rong Hu sympathized greatly.
The two of them guarded Feng Ming together from the beginning of the hostility, later their friendship gradually deepened when they fought on the Aman River.
Now, due to Qiuyue’s affairs, it has added a kind of brotherly tacit understanding.
While the two were in silent distress, the laughter and exaggerated cries of Feng Ming faintly come out of the room. “Help! Help! Murder… Uh… you incapable ruler, We agreed not to do it on the desk, hmm..hmm…Uhh.. Ah…”
A series of crackling sounds passed into the eardrum dully.
It seems that the stool or some furnishings are kicked aside by the two mischievous people, maybe even the pen and ink on the desk are kicked for no reason.
Rong Hu and Luo Yun glance at each other involuntarily. “Perhaps Duke Ming has a solution to this. Would you like to ask?” Rong Hu asks tentatively.
Luo Yun’s eyes jump wildly and he resolutely shake his head.
After a moment of silence, he says to Rong Hu with an unnatural look on his face, “If you tell anyone about this, I will kill you too.”
Rong Hu shakes his head and says, “If you don’t kill me, Qiu Yue will kill me.”
It’s not far from the place where Feng Ming and Rong Tian having fun.
Separated by a wall from the heavily guarded courtyard where Feng Ming currently lives. He Qing Prince Palace owner, inside the special private room, Luo Qian Qian, who has just arrived, is sitting on a chair, holding the silver cup in her hand, hatefully says, “that bitch Yaoye also came to Tong Ze, i heard she also visited imperial uncle a while ago to see Duke Ming and stayed for a while, but i didn’t meet her”.
Luo Qian Qian snorts softly and says, “putting aside the matter of that woman for the time being, when is imperial uncle’s plan going to be carried out?” The snow-white and tender jade-like turns gently and looks in the direction of Qing Zhang. Qing Zhang’s heart beats.
This woman can’t be said to be beautiful, but she is full of dangerous and captivating traits.
In particular, she has been showing that she will let Qing Zhang to behave unscrupulously in the future, but she is not allowing him to mess around at present, which is more itching and unbearable. What you can’t get may be the best.
“I also want to start as soon as possible.” Qing Zhang sighs, “but the guards on the other side of the courtyard are still very tight. I thought with such a warm hospitality and friendship, it will be easier for Duke Ming for letting down his vigilance. Even until now, his men still have to check what I sent over. Moreover, they also refused to accept the maids I sent to serve them all. Although he lives in my palace, he’s actually no different from renting a house alone. It’s impossible to know what’s going on inside, let alone close to the inner room where Duke Ming rests.”
Luo Qian Qian smiles indifferently, with a trace of calmness and ruthlessness on her face. “For the guarding, imperial uncle doesn’t have to worry too much, I can transfer Xiao family’s men at any time. Without the protection of the Xiao family sword masters, there were only a few guards assigned by Rong Tian around the bitch’s son. Qing Li spent so much money to secretly invite the master, won’t even be able to solve such a few guards? Even if he can’t solve it, I believe Uncle Wang must have a way to help him solve it, right?”
“Lady rest assured, since I promised you, I will not lose my words.” Her face is cold, but her eyes toward Qing Zhang show obvious weakness for help, the two opposite attitudes aroused Qing Zhang’s male pride to immediately shows his generosity. “I know all the masters in Qing Li’s hands. Recently, he has again invited two famous swordsmen from Bei Qi and also an archer master from Pu Rong. Although this little bastard Qing Li had trouble with his head, he did a really good job. Once such a strength is launched, it’s enough to deal with Duke Ming who is protected by Xirei’s guards.”
Luo Yan listens with her beautiful eyes lowered, and faintly says, “Then, please imperial uncle create an opportunity for Qing Li as soon as possible to go after that bitch’s son.”
“About Qing Li, there’s only one difficult problem at present.”
“What’s the problem?”
Qing Zhang asks, “Did lady hear that Qing Li’s wife, Chang Liu, is pregnant?”
Luo Qian Qian says, “Does it matter?”
“it matters a lot.” Qing Zhang says, “Chang Liu is pregnant, Qing Li is instigated by those attendants, so he began to pay attention to Chang Liu again. In these two days, he visited the small courtyard where Chang Liu lives.”
“Men are like this, where is the love for the woman, just value the child in the woman’s belly.” Luo Qian Qian doesn’t know what to think of and shows her hateful sharp eyes, after a few moments of silence, she restored her leisurely tone, “Doesn’t Shang Yi sent out by imperial uncle to give Qing Li drugs every day? Is the news of having a son have such a great effect that even drug control can be resisted? I heard that Qing Li has been using drugs for some time. Will imperial uncle send someone to notify Shang Yi and order her to increase the dosage of the drugs for Qing Li? ”
Qing Zhang sighs, “I’m also really surprised about this. A few days ago I had sent a secret letter to Shang Yi, the letter included the new medicine for her to give to Qing Li to take every day. I made all these medicines with my own hands according to the prescription and specially added the Mihun grass that was obtained from The Li Kingdom for the high price, the medicine should be stronger. But according to the letter from Shang Yi, in the past few days, Qing Li’s consciousness is not as faint as it used to be. On the contrary he screams headaches every day, and occasionally gets angry at Shang Yi.”
Luo Qian Qian looks for a moment, “has he changed his mind to assassinate the little bastard?”
From Qing Zhang’s mouth, she already knew the reason Qing Li regarded Feng Ming as the enemy who killed his father and wanted to kill Feng Ming to take revenge, most of them are the result of hypnosis and encouragement when Qing Li is unconscious after Qing Li is drugged.
Once Qing Li is out of Shang Yi’s control, the plan may be interrupted.
Qing Zhang carefully thinks for a moment and slowly shakes his head and says, “Probably not. Although he paid more attention to the pregnant Chang Liu, he still dote on Shang Yi very much, he also sleeps in Shang Yi’s courtyard at night. Moreover, Qing Li also took the pills given to him by Shang Yi every day as usual. It can be seen that he still trusted Shang Yi. When taking drugs for a long time, the effect would be unstable for a period of time, it’s not surprising that the person who eats it will have iterations. It will probably recover in a few days.”
Even if he wanted to break his head, he couldn’t guess that He Di, the prince of Dan Lin and the leader of the pirates, would investigate the situation of all parties everywhere he went and send someone to monitor all those who made him suspicious.
This is not because he fears of death, but because the pirates are used to seeing the unpredictable, in the dangerous and mysterious sea, they had to develop their instinct and tried their best to master everything in order to deal with possible danger at any time.
What’s more, he didn’t expect that the pills he had worked hard and secretly prepare to send to Shang Yi under the stone, had all fallen into He Di’s hands and act as a small prop to scare the prey Zi Yan.
On the other hand, the color and smell of the swapped package that He Di’s guards casually found that Qing Li ate every day, are all almost the same. It’s just Dan Lin local medicine for constipation.
Luo Qian Qian looking down for a moment and then looking up, and says quietly, “If the things are delayed further, I am afraid there will be more problems. While Qing Li is still under the control of imperial uncle, the assassination masters are almost recruited again, we must start immediately.”
“Immediately?” Qing Zhang pauses for a while and whispers, “In order to succeed, you must first lead the man out of Qing Prince Palace, and secretly report the news to Qingli, so that Qingli can mobilize troops to assassinate him. Before the time comes, the lady must not act rashly.
Luo Qian Qian asks softly, “When does imperial uncle think it is a good time?”
“Lady rest assures, it will soon the birthday of my brother Qing Ding, although he was missing and rumored to have passed away, his body could not be found for one day, he is still the reigning king of the Tong Kingdom, there must be a grand celebration ceremony in the whole kingdom. According to the usual practice, the celebration ceremony in the capital city Tong Ze will start from the residence of the heir of the Great King to show the Crown Prince’s filial piety. If Duke Ming went to Tong An Courtyard at that time, it would be the best opportunity for Qing Li, and everyone would think he’s in grief and indignation at the disappearance of his father king and deeply pained in his father king’s birthday so he kills him.”
Luo Qian Qian frownly says, “The bitch’s son is very afraid of death. Why would he go to Qing Li’s Tong An Courtyard?”
“The lady can rest assure, although he seems weak, he often makes heroic action. He has been very angry about the rumor that the king of the Tong Kingdom was killed by him, hoping that he can find an opportunity to wash this off.” Qing Zhang laughs resolutely, “Only by appearing at Tong An Courtyard on such an important day can he show that he is not guilty, show his sincerity to the Tong Kingdom and win more capital for his Xiao family, based on this alone, he will take the risk with all his heart. Besides, this imperial uncle also convince him that his safety is protected by the army of the Tong Kingdom and Qing Li has absolutely no ability to even touch his hair.”
Luo Qian Qian thinks with her eyes closed.
The dim shadow light of the secret room swayed on her not young but still beautiful face.
After a long time, the bright eyes with the cold light slowly opened.
She looks towards Qing Zhang, there’s a dragonfly-touches-the-water-lightly-like faint smile on the corner of her lips.
“Okay, I’ll wait until that day.”
