slave like jade

Chapter 148 love but not

On the Wangyue Pavilion, the tallest building in the Eastern Capital.In the night, on the high eaves on the top floor, Kuang Qinqin sat decadently, holding a jug in one hand and Yu Ruyan in the other, while Yu Ruyan's body was on the edge of the eaves, her concubine-colored dress had Half of it is exposed outside the eaves, as long as Kuang Qinqin lets go, she will fall from the top of the eaves. If she falls from such a high floor, even the gods of Da Luo will not be able to save her!

Mu Lingzhi's eyes were about to burst into flames. Seeing Yu Ruyan's situation, his heart was in his throat, and he was about to fly to save others, when he heard Kuang Qinqin's cold voice: "Your Highness, I know You are skilled in martial arts, but I still advise you, don't think about grabbing someone from me, if I fight with you, as long as I let go, the woman you love will fall into a ball of mud because of you! "

Mu Lingzhi jumped up to the third floor, and when he heard Kuang Qinqin's words, his feet froze, and he was afraid to attack Kuang Qinqin.

He gritted his teeth to suppress the panic in his heart, and said coldly: "Mrs. Kuang, put down the princess quickly. As long as you let her go, I will protect your life, and you will not be held accountable for what you have done before. Just put her down." !"

Kuang Qinqin was unmoved, she took a sip of wine, looked at Yu Ruyan and sneered, "To be honest, I really envy you, why do they all care so much about you and like you so much... they are also women , Why do we spend so much time and effort that we can't expect a little feedback from the one we love, even a look. And you obviously didn't do anything for them, but one or two of them for you, you can Don’t want Jiangshan, don’t want wealth, don’t want life, why? I really can’t figure it out.”

After a few sips of wine, Kuang Qinqin seemed a little drunk, Yu Ruyan didn't dare to lower her head to look at the tall buildings below, she tried to keep her voice calm, and said to Kuang Qinqin slowly: "I know you have a lot of things on your mind, but you always There is no one to talk to, if you trust me, why don't you let me drink with you, I will listen to you, and I will help you..."

She knew that Kuang Qinqin would not do anything to him before seeing Yue Yu, but she was afraid that if she got drunk, if she let go of her hand, she would really die.

Kuang Qinqin looked at her coldly, with some hesitation in his eyes, but she looked around, the place where she was with Yu Ruyan was hanging on all sides, the people below did not dare to come up, and Yu Ruyan didn't know kung fu , even if you let her sit over, you are not afraid of what will happen to her!
As soon as she stretched out her hand, she already pulled Yu Ruyan to the middle of the eaves.

Leaving the edge of the eaves, Yu Ruyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, Kuang Qinqin struck like lightning, sealing the acupuncture points all over her body, making her unable to move.

Kuang Qinqin said coldly to the people below: "Your Highness, I have placed the princess in a safe place, you should stop trying to snatch her away from me. If you have this time to deal with me, I advise Your Highness to hurry up and take someone away." Go find the person I want to see, as long as I see him, I promise to return the princess to you unscathed, and I will go back with you willingly to accept the crime."

After all, with a twist of his wrist, a sharp dagger appeared in his hand, pressed it against Yu Ruyan's neck, and said coldly: "Princess, since you understand my thoughts and what I think, why don't you help me achieve it?" Make one last wish!"

Yu Ruyan knew that she wanted to see Yue Yu wholeheartedly, but looking at her now, she was worried that after seeing Yue Yu, she would act violently and unwisely, what if she wanted to kill Yue Yu because of love and hatred? ?
Thinking of this, she said: "I know you want to see Yue Yu, if you just want to see him, I can help you, but if you want to harm him, even if you kill me, I will not help you of."

Hearing this, Kuang Qinqin couldn't help but smiled bitterly, and said: "Just as he can take care of everyone in the world and only protect you, I do the same with him. I can hate everyone, but I can't hate him."

"So don't worry, princess, I won't do him any harm, let alone hurt him at all. It's just because he removed me from the Yue family and refused to see me again. I can't find him, so I can only use the princess to force me to He showed up—I would rather lay hands on myself than lay hands on him!"

Looking at the obscure and desperate description on her face, Yu Ruyan felt a little heartache for her inexplicably, this kind of feeling of not being loved is the most heartbreaking!
She knew that Mu Lingzhi was guarding below, so she shouted down: "Your Highness, I am safe now, don't worry too much, you'd better find a way to find Master Yue, let him come and see Aunt Kuang!"

It wasn't until he heard her voice that Mu Lingzhi felt relieved a little, but then he became worried again, wondering how to find Yue Yu?
But no matter what method he uses, even if he turns the whole thing upside down, he will find Yue Yu to save Yu Ruyan!

He asked the copper coins to lead people to guard His Excellency Mochizuki, and he led the people to find ways to find Yue Yu in all directions.

From the eaves, Yu Ruyan looked at the entire Eastern Capital City. After nightfall, at this time of day, the shops on the street are closed, and ordinary people’s homes are also turned off for sleep. But tonight, because of her, and because of Kuang Qinqin, the whole city is in a panic It boiled up, lights were lit everywhere, people's voices and noises could be heard everywhere, strings of torches were rummaging around the streets and alleys of Dongdu like fire dragons.

For the sake of Yu Ruyan, Mu Lingzhi couldn't keep a low profile anymore. Not only Jing Zhaoyin's people were dispatched to help find someone, but also all the soldiers of the palace were dispatched, so all the shops of the Yue family were called to open the doors. Mu Ling He ordered them to send a message to Yue Yu, who had disappeared, in the way the Yue family usually communicates, and Mu Lingzhi even offered rewards overnight. As long as anyone who knows the news of the Yue family has a lot of rewards, almost everyone in Dongdu is looking for him. Yue Yu.

Yu Ruyan looked at Dongdu, who was jumping around, and sighed with frown: "Aunt Kuang made such a big fuss just to see him, and Mr. Yue has always been a low-key person who doesn't like publicity. If he finds out, Even if you finally see him as you wish, I'm afraid..."

Although Yue Yu's temper looks gentle and elegant, Yu Ruyan knows that his heart is extremely tough and assertive, and he doesn't like to be controlled and forced. At the beginning, even the eldest prince Mu Yunzhi wanted to get closer to him. no.If he hadn't been so tenacious, he wouldn't have run a business empire.

Therefore, if such a thoughtful person is forced out by Kuang Qinqin in this way, I am afraid that the two of them will not be happy when they meet in the end. With Yue Yu's temperament, he does not know how he will treat her in the end. Ruyan couldn't help worrying about her!

Kuang Qinqin knew the meaning of Yu Ruyan's words, she felt depressed, took a big gulp of wine, threw the empty jug in her hand down the stairs, and said with a cold smile: "Do you think I don't know his temperament? ? It's because he said the same thing, and what he said would not change again. If he said he would never see me again, he would never see me again forever. That's why I made such a bad plan..."

"I can't find him, I tried everything I can to find him, I really have no other way..."

Tears rolled down without any warning. Kuang Qinqin was obviously crying very sadly, but she raised the corners of her lips and smiled. She stood up and pointed to the brightly lit Eastern Capital below, feeling extremely painful and helpless: "Even though I know he is here In the city of Dongdu, but I can't find him... Do you understand the painful feeling of wanting to see someone all the time, but he insists on avoiding you, avoiding you, and refusing to meet you? Don't you Will understand, how will you understand, Mu Lingzhi loves you so much, and he loves you too, they wish to be with you all the time, how can you understand the pain in my heart?"

The night wind blew her messy hair flying in the air, and Kuang Qinqin was filled with deep sorrow.She picked up another jug ​​of wine, slapped the seal, and drank it on her own.

Yu Ruyan looked at the sadness and grief in her expression, and seemed to understand something in her heart, Chi asked: "Could it be that... you went to Qin Xianglou to stimulate Yue Yu?"

Hearing this, Kuang Qinqin swallowed the jug in his hand, and although he drank a lot of wine, his face became paler and paler.

She didn't speak for a long time, just when Yu Ruyan thought she didn't pay attention to her words, Kuang Qinqin spoke weakly——

"You... guessed half right."

Her voice seemed to come from the distant sky. It was ethereal and hollow, making people feel guilty and flustered, and it also made people feel a little pity for no reason: "Since he saved me, I have regarded him as the only one I can rely on in this life." , is also the only lover, love him, become the belief in my life!

"I learned Danqing, medical skills, and martial arts from him... I really miss those days. Although I was just a little maid by his side, at least I could see him every day..."

Kuang Qinqin seemed to be caught in the memories of the past happy times, she looked up at the full moon in the sky, as if she was talking to Yu Ruyan, and it seemed that she was remembering the past by herself, sighing alone.

When Yu Ruyan heard her words, she couldn't help being surprised in her heart, she didn't know that Yue Yu knew martial arts!
She turned to Yang Dao, she knew very little about Yue Yu, she only knew that his name was Yue Yu, and he was the head of Yue's family, but what kind of person he was, who was in his family, and where was his family? I don't know!
Therefore, it is normal for him to know martial arts without knowing it, but——

Thinking of Yue Yu's frail body, she couldn't help but feel suspicious again, but she didn't want to interrupt Kuang Qinqin's words at this time, it could be seen that she had too many worries hidden in her heart, and her life was too depressing!
"But ever since the son heard the servant talk about my relationship with him, he never let me serve by his side anymore, and he wanted to marry me to my husband's family. I don't want to. I'll go find him I confessed my feelings for him, but he sternly rejected me. In a fit of anger, I went to Qin Xianglou..."

At that time, Kuang Qinqin wanted to marry Yue Yu wholeheartedly. After hearing that he wanted to marry him, he went to confess to him sadly, but he refused politely.

Kuang Qinqin, who was rejected, was sad and desperate. She couldn't believe that Yue Yu had no feelings for her. In order to stimulate him, she sold herself into Qin Xianglou and became a nobleman.

She didn't say that Yu Ruyan had guessed these things, but she only guessed half of the reason why Kuang Qinqin entered Qin Xianglou, and the other half was that Kuang Qinqin accidentally got the secret of Yue Yu's real identity and his plan. Years of revenge plan, in order to help him, after entering Qin Xianglou, she was very enthusiastic towards Mu Lingzhi who went to Qinxiang Tower with the eldest prince for the first time, just to let him notice her, and when he had a chance to get close to him Afterwards, find an opportunity to kill him to avenge Yue Yu.

She was indeed successful, but it didn't attract the attention of the third prince Mu Lingzhi, but the attention of the eldest prince Mu Yunzhi. Mu Yunzhi bought her and sent her to the third prince's mansion, becoming Mu Lingzhi. His aunt.

At that time, the two princes hadn't quarreled on the surface, and they still had a harmonious appearance of brothers and sisters. Mu Lingzhi couldn't resist Mu Yunzhi's wishes, accepted her into the mansion, and entered into the palace with her according to the procedure. Bridal chamber...

In Mu Lingzhi's eyes, Kuang Qinqin was the ghost that Mu Yunzhi sent to his house to monitor what was going on in his house. What he didn't expect was that this new aunt who came to the house wanted his life.

Kuang Qinqin was fully prepared to kill him on the wedding night in the bridal chamber, but she also knew that the assassination was very dangerous, so she assassinated Mu Lingzhi with the heart of death.But in the end, she still couldn't let go of Yue Yu in her heart, and asked him to see him one last time before she acted.

Unexpectedly, he did not avoid her this time, but the first thing he said after the meeting was to ask her to be the aunt of the palace, and strictly prohibited her from interfering in his revenge, because, he said, Mu Lingzhi's sword He wants to return the hatred with his own hands.

Kuang Qinqin wanted to help him wholeheartedly, but in the end he did nothing. Instead, he became his enemy's aunt by accident. She was imprisoned by her status in the palace, and her life would be worse than death!
Yu Ruyan couldn't guess that Kuang Qinqin married into the palace by accident, and it was even more impossible for Kuang Qinqin to tell her this.She also had doubts in her heart, and said coldly: "To be honest, I don't really believe that Dongcao will betray me. How did you find out about Gu Qing'er?"

Kuang Qinqin boasted that she did it flawlessly, as long as Dongcao didn't say anything, no one would know that she planted the arsenic in Gu Qinger's medicine, but as she said, she didn't believe that Dongcao would betray her. How did Yu Ruyan find out that she did it?

At this time, Yu Ruyan didn't want to hide it from her, she couldn't move, she stiffened and said slowly: "I found out about your disappearance as soon as I got back home, to be honest, I was very worried about you, so I went to your house Take a look at Biheyuan to see if you have left any clues so that we can find you."

"This is the first time I went to your Bihe Courtyard, do you know what my first feeling was when I entered?"

Hearing this, Kuang Qinqin put down the jug in his hand, but understood it in the next second, and said with a wry smile: "I have to admit that the princess is not only smart, but also as careful as dust."

"Yes, after I went in, I saw your yard and your room. I felt very familiar and friendly. It reminded me of the place where Yue Yu lived in the backyard of Wuwei Hospital."

"The same pigeons, similar furnishings in the room, even the books on the bookshelves are the same, even the food boxes and hanging places for feeding the pigeons are the same. At that time, I suspected in my mind, are you I know Yue Yu, and I have a very close relationship. Or, I discovered that there is a person hidden in your heart, and this person is most likely the Yue Gongzi I know."

"But what made me finally confirm my guess was that when I was inquiring about Dongcao's life experience, I heard Liu's mother say that Dongcao once learned a dish from the kitchen staff for you. This dish is not only your favorite, It's also Yue Yu's favorite Su San Xian! So many coincidences make me believe that you and Yue Yu are inextricably linked."

"And Liu Ma also told me that Dongcao first came to the mansion to repay her kindness. After she entered the mansion, she just stayed in the kitchen and didn't get close to other people in the yard. She just cooked 'vegetarian delicacies' for you. Don't think too much, The former master she wants to repay is you. Therefore, only you will have the opportunity to enter the Violet Courtyard under her nose without being known by others, because she protects you in her heart and helps you when His Highness investigates this matter. Hid it up."

"Of course, you didn't tell her when you went to Ziluoyuan to prescribe the medicine. She didn't know that you were going to harm Gu Qing'er. It was she who realized it later and guessed that it was you who did it. When the hospital confronted you, she got emotional and fell ill in your yard, and later refused to go to your side to serve you, and voluntarily pleaded guilty and went to the handyman's room..."

"Dongcao is a very honest and honest girl. She is loyal to you and to Gu Qing'er, so after Gu Qing'er was poisoned by you, she concealed it for you against her conscience, but at the same time she felt ashamed Gu Qing'er, it was precisely because of her old illness caused by her painful and entangled emotions that I realized that she knew about Gu Qing'er's death, so I found out about you from her body. on the body."

When Yu Ruyan told all this, Kuang Qinqin listened very calmly, as if he was listening to someone else's story.

Her head was half down, her long black hair covered most of her face, making her small cheeks look pale and pitiful.

After a while, she sighed softly and said, "I didn't expect you to be so careful, and always thought that Dongcao betrayed me."

Yu Ruyan also sighed and said: "Dongcao is a good girl, she has always been grateful for your kindness to her, until today when I took her to Qin Xianglou, she didn't reveal anything about you, she has been working hard for you Hidden..."

The dots of stars in the sky have quietly disappeared at some point, the night is getting darker, and before you know it, dawn is coming!
Yu Ruyan looked wearily at His Excellency Wangyue's bright lights, and said in a daze, "It seems that Auntie is going to be disappointed, Your Highness has not found Mr. Yue!"

Kuang Qinqin said coldly: "Are you afraid?"

Yu Ruyan sat stiffly all night, her body was so stiff that she couldn't move, her hands and feet were as cold as frost, she said exhaustedly: "There is no one who is not afraid of death, if I were my aunt, I would agree with your Highness before If you let me go, let go of yourself. People, there is nothing more important than living. Only by living well can you have the opportunity to do what you want to do and love the people you love! Auntie, I am right. ?"

After sitting all night, Kuang Qinqin was also exhausted. She leaned against the eave beam and sneered, "Is the princess trying to persuade me to let you go? But as I said, if Yue Yu doesn't show up, I won't let you go." It's yours." After saying that, the dagger in his hand touched Yu Ruyan's neck again.

However, at this moment, His Excellency Mochizuki heard a rush of footsteps, and the two upstairs were shocked, Yu Ruyan couldn't move her whole body, and Kuang Qinqin couldn't wait to look down, the expression on his face Panicked and anxious, she thought it was Mu Lingzhi who searched all night and finally found Yue Yu and brought him here!
It was Xiaodao who came downstairs, he finally heard the movement and knew that Yu Ruyan was threatened and trapped on the Wangyue Pavilion.

Hearing this news, Xiaodao was still able to sit still and sleep, disregarding the rules in the palace, he ran out of the mansion in the middle of the night.

When he arrived at Your Excellency Wangyue and saw Yu Ruyan on the eaves from a distance, his handsome face paled instantly, and a fierce and fierce light lit up in his obsidian-like eyes...

On the roof of the eaves, after Kuang Qinqin glanced eagerly at the crowd gathered downstairs, the expression of expectation on her face was suddenly extremely disappointed. She sat back in frustration, with disappointment and sadness in her eyes, but the expression on her face was cold stand up.

She got up suddenly, and angrily threw all the jugs beside her downstairs. The sudden 'bang bang' sound shocked the people guarding the copper coins below, and Mu Lingzhi, whose eyes were bloodshot, was riding away. Come here, looking at the shattered pieces of porcelain, a heart has fallen into hell...

He looked up at the top floor of the Wangyue Pavilion. At this moment, Kuang Qinqin, who was so disappointed, once again lifted Yu Ruyan in his hand and pushed it to the edge of the eaves. The unstable appearance scared the people below to death!

Seeing Mu Lingzhi's return, Tongqian and Ange Dongcao rushed forward to greet him, and Xiaodao also stepped forward. Everyone looked behind him nervously, but they didn't see Yue Yu's figure, and they all showed disappointment and worry. color.

Brother An and Dongcao have been crying all night. At the beginning, Tong Qian kept persuading them, but later, seeing that the more they persuaded them, the more they cried, so they stopped trying to persuade them. They just kept passing silk handkerchiefs to Brother An to help She wiped her tears, and in the end the veil was soaked, so she had to use her sleeve to wipe her tears.

Seeing that Mu Lingzhi didn't bring Yue Yu, Brother An couldn't help crying again.And Xiaodao said violently to Mu Lingzhi: "Brother Huang, I'll go up with you, I'll lure her, and you go save my sister!"

Mu Lingzhi's eyes were fixed on Yu Ruyan who was hanging out of his body, and he was very anxious, but when he heard the report from the secret guard, he knew that Kuang Qinqin's skills were not simple, if he couldn't subdue her with one move, he would only kill Yu Ruyan .

Thinking of this, he waved his hand wearily to stop the knife, and gritted his teeth: "There is still an hour before dawn, please wait patiently and hope that Yue Yu will show up, so that Yan Yan is the safest, if... If in the end he Still not here, when the time comes, I will quietly sneak up to the eaves of the sixth floor, and if you shoot Kuang with an arrow from below, she will definitely fall down with Yan Yan after being hit by the arrow, and I will go out to catch her... ..."

When Xiao Dao heard this, his face turned pale. He glanced at the dangerous high-rise building standing in the dark night, and knew how dangerous Mu Lingzhi was talking about.

Almost subconsciously, Xiao Dao refused: "Brother Huang, although you are strong in lightness kung fu, you have no one to pick up your sister from such a high place. Change your life!"

The copper coin on the side also understood the meaning of the knife. Mu Lingzhi said that he was catching Yu Ruyan from a high place, but when he jumped out to catch Yu Ruyan, his body was not attached to him in mid-air. The weight of Yu Ruyan's fall, the two of them fell from the tall building at the same time, he who was below buffered the momentum of Yu Ruyan's fall, but he put all the weight on him alone, when the time came, he would either die or be disabled!
The copper coin trembled all over, shook its head desperately and said, "Your Highness, this method will not work, you can't do this, it's too dangerous..."

Mu Lingzhi's voice was unusually decisive, and there was no room for anyone to resist, "This is my order, who dares to disobey!?"

His eyes were already flushed red due to the night of sleeplessness and anxiety, now his own life and death are no longer important to him, he only has one thought in his mind, that is to let Yu Ruyan be safe!
He solemnly ordered Xiaodao: "It's fine if I have nothing to do with her, but if I'm unlucky...you have to send Yanyan out of Dongdu and Daliang immediately, to a place where no one can find her, you understand me mean?"

Xiaodao's eyes were hot, why didn't he understand the meaning of his words, he was just afraid that he would accidentally fall to his death, and that his mother and concubine would let Yu Ruyan take her life, so he asked him to hide Yu Ruyan and let her mother and concubine find her Not to her.

Before Xiao Dao had time to persuade him, Kuang Qinqin on the eaves saw Mu Lingzhi's return, but did not bring Yue Yu to see him. His heart of anxiety and grief all night finally couldn't help but burst out.
