Qin Shi: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 145 Wonderful Story

Luoyi City, Zhou Gongtai, it is said that Zhou Gong once pointed to the landscape in front of him and said that Luoyi City, the accompanying capital of Zhou State, would be built here, so Zhou Gongtai got its name.

Therefore, the so-called Zhougong Terrace is not a beautiful or well-built building, but just a small hillside outside Luoyi City. Zhougong Terrace in winter looks even more desolate, with yellow weeds and half-bald trees. A few small sparrows searched among the weeds to see if there were any fallen grass seeds or something.

A stunned salamander in leather armor with a high collar took off the silver mask on his face, and looked at Luoshui, who was far away, with a pair of clear eyes, which were covered with a layer of melancholy.

"Has he escaped yet? It should be fine, right? He can kill the ex-Jian Ri, and his martial arts are even better than mine." The startled salamander pondered, and the worry in her heart deepened. For the first time in her life, she had When there are people who care, there are things you care about.

"It's just that, after all, it's a country's pursuit. No matter how good your martial arts are, you will still be able to..., and Wei Guo has no shortage of masters." Thinking of this, Startled Salamander had a faint feeling of regret.

"I shouldn't have listened to your words at that time." The startled salamander pondered.

"If you are disobedient, I will spank your ass." As the salamander pondered in shock, a figure walked out from the mountain stream behind her. It was Yang Ming who had rested in Xinzheng for an afternoon and started on the road again.

"You're here?" Shocked, the desolation on his face has been replaced by surprise.

"You?" Yang Ming questioned.

"Yes, it's my husband." Facing Yang Ming's questioning, Jing Xi suddenly became shy. This cold female killer now understands what it means to be shy.

"Is this really good? I thought it was just a few days of separation, and the startled salamander turned his face and ruthlessly refused to admit it." Yang Ming walked towards the startled salamander with a smile.

"I, I won't." Faced with Yang Ming's joke, Jing Xi explained with a serious face.

"You are still like this." Yang Ming said helplessly.

The startled salamander walked up to Yang Ming, and in Yang Ming's unexpected sight, she hugged Yang Ming on her own initiative, and leaned forward, offering her somewhat cold lips, and then seemed to think of something, He stuck out his tongue and licked around Yang Ming's mouth before releasing Yang Ming.

The startled salamander who left Yang Ming even looked at Yang Ming's gaze, with shyness in his eyes and anticipation, as if he was waiting for Yang Ming's next reaction and praise.

"Let's go, there is still a big difficulty waiting for us in Xianyang." Yang Ming took the startled salamander's hand and walked down the hill.

Although my task is considered complete, the matter of the startled salamander still has a small tail, if it cannot be resolved, it will still be a big trouble.

Jing Xi, who couldn't get what she wanted from Yang Ming, couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but with a cold personality and not good at expressing, she wouldn't say anything, and let Yang Ming pull her towards Luoyi City.

……

Xianyang, Ganquan Palace.

Zhao Ji, who went to bed early and woke up late, looked at Yang Ming who reappeared in front of her, but she didn't have much joy in her expression, but rather gloomy.

"What's the matter with the startled salamander? Aijia heard from Lu Buwei that in Daliang City you robbed the first-class assassin who snatched the net?" Although the events that happened in Daliang City, due to time reasons, have not been fully reported. Came to Xianyang, but Yang Ming robbed the startling salamander, which made the startling salamander's mission fall short, but Xianyang already knew about it.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, this incident was just an accident. I didn't know that the oiran of the Zuimenglou would be a trap. At that time, I only wanted to make my name in Daliang City as soon as possible, so I made a decision in front of Wei Wuji. The act of rebellion took people away, but I never thought that that person would be a snare killer sent by Lu Xiangguo." Yang Ming defended himself.

"It was really just an accident?" Facing Yang Ming's explanation, Zhao Ji was skeptical. This incident was too coincidental, so coincidental that it seemed fake.

"It was really just an accident." Yang Ming said.

"Then what happened next?" Zhao Ji asked.

"Later there was a small accident." Yang Ming said hesitantly.

"Aijia is listening to your explanation." Zhao Ji, who was sitting behind the desk, straightened her waist to make herself appear more majestic.

"After taking the startled salamander away, I found out that she turned out to be a woman I knew." Yang Ming explained.

"You guys know each other?" Zhao Ji asked unexpectedly, subconsciously leaning forward slightly, with a look of interest in her expression.

"It's considered an acquaintance, I met a woman in the Mirror Garden."

"Could that woman be the startled salamander? And you guys had a crush on each other before?" Zhao Ji asked, and automatically added the next plot for Yang Ming.

"This..., the empress dowager is wise, that's exactly what it is." Yang Ming showed a shy look while speaking.

"Is there really such a coincidence in the world?" Zhao Ji hesitated: "What happens next?"

"What happened later was also a bit of a coincidence." Yang Ming's expression was a little more embarrassing when he said this.

"Aijia wants to hear how coincidental it can be." Zhao Ji said with a grim expression, there were too many coincidences, which made her suspicious.

"Mr. Xinling acted as a matchmaker in order to win me over. In order not to expose my background, I..."

Before Yang Ming could finish speaking, Zhao Ji cut off his words: "So you went along with the flow and caught the beauty killer?"

"You know everything, Queen Mother?" Yang Ming said with a 'shocked' face.

"Your story is really wonderful. The Ai family didn't even know that you had such a wonderful story after you came to Wei." Zhao Ji smiled, only thinking that Yang Ming's story was really interesting.

"How does Luo Wang's Tianzi first-class killer taste?" Zhao Ji asked with a gossiping expression.

"Queen Mother, this, this..." Yang Ming said coyly, and suddenly became incoherent.

"It's very exciting, just like a story in a book." Zhao Ji couldn't help laughing when she saw Yang Ming's 'green' expression.

Amidst Yang Ming's smile, Yang Ming suddenly changed his tone and said, "The Empress Dowager Mingjian, it is the story in the book, a story I made up."

"A story you made up?" Zhao Ji was slightly taken aback, and then she came to her senses and said, "So what you said just now is to lie to Aijia?"

While speaking, Zhao Ji's brows were filled with a bit of anger caused by embarrassment.

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the story is true, but the accident in it is false. In fact, in Zuimenglou, I just didn't want to surprise the salamander with a beauty trick to assassinate Lord Xinling." At this time Yang Ming told the truth.

"What's the reason? You think she's beautiful, so you're so daring?" Zhao Ji said coldly. She really believed Yang Ming's story just now, but she never thought that everything was just made up by Yang Ming. He was lying to himself, how could Zhao Ji not be angry.

"When I met the startled salamander, she was not so beautiful. At that time, she was just a maid in the Garden of Mirrors, with an ordinary color." Yang Ming said.

"What do you want to say?" Zhao Ji asked.

"I like the startled salamander, but it's definitely not because of her beauty. I liked her when she was the fish girl in Jinghuayuan. Later, I saw her again in Daliang City, and after knowing her mission... "Yang Ming said.

"So you took people away?" Zhao Ji sneered, with a fierce look in her eyes.

If Aijia doesn't let you see the majesty of Aijia, will you fool Aijia like you did just now?

"Yes, Empress Dowager, I can't sit and watch the woman I like no matter what, because the so-called mission is to fall into the arms of other men, even if it is a trap mission, even if it will put me in danger, even It's a situation of eternal doom." Yang Ming said resolutely to the point of madness.

"Do you know that you have violated the taboo of snares." Zhao Ji looked at Yang Ming in front of her and said inexplicably.

In the eyes of others, Yang Ming's actions were not only wrong, but also sinful, which can be said to be unscrupulous, but at this time it was Zhao Ji who was in front of Yang Ming, and those so-called rules were just like that in her eyes, and she herself was She is an unscrupulous person, so in her eyes, Yang Ming's story is only interesting.

Besides, she is also a woman, and it is easier for her to assume the role of the startling salamander.

"I know, but I really have to." Yang Ming said without regret.

"You shouldn't have said these things. Lord Xinling is dead anyway, and Luo Wang will not deliberately pursue the matter between Jing Xi and you, but now that you have said these things, your troubles will follow. It's gone." Zhao Ji murmured, as if she was worried about Yang Ming, but in her heart, it was a different mood.

"In front of the queen mother, I dare not and do not want to have any concealment or deception." Yang Ming said sincerely.

"Why? Because Ai's family is the queen mother?" Zhao Ji looked at Yang Mingdao with a half-smile. She didn't know whether Yang Ming's words were the true thoughts in her heart, and she couldn't judge whether they were true or not, but these were not important. , because no matter it was true or not, she had believed Yang Ming's words.

"Yes, because the one in front of me is the queen mother, or..." Yang Ming stopped here, as if he was a little embarrassed.

"Or what?" Zhao Ji smiled: "Or little aunt?"

"Don't dare." Yang Ming said quickly, with a look of apprehension on his face.

"As the empress dowager, it's really inappropriate for you to call Aijia that way, but it's okay if it's in private." Zhao Ji mused, but her gaze was always on Yang Ming. Yang Ming's cunning and simplicity, arrogance And prudence, in Zhao Ji's view, is very interesting.

At this time, Yang Ming was in a daze, as if he didn't understand the other meaning of Zhao Ji's words.

This kind of Yang Ming couldn't help but make Zhao Ji laugh out loud, and the last trace of doubts and doubts about Yang Ming disappeared without a trace.

"What are you going to do about the startled salamander who is married to you? The people in the net can't help themselves." Zhao Ji asked about the startled salamander, the heroine in the story just now.

"Okay, Queen Mother, please help me." Hearing Zhao Ji talk about the startled salamander, Yang Ming's expression changed, and he became more anxious.

"Let the Ai family help you? What can the Ai family help you? The Ai family can't control the trap." Zhao Ji pretended to be puzzled.

"This? I don't know, but the only person I can think of who can help me at this moment is the Queen Mother." Yang Ming prayed.

"You kid is cunning, let the startled salamander come to Ganquan Palace, no matter how long the hand of the net is stretched out, it still can't reach Aijia's Ganquan Palace." Zhao Ji said proudly.
