There seemed to be expectations, surprises, and doubts in those eyes, but calmness was restored in an instant.
Qingyun's heart froze. He must have seen the shadow of Lan Ling in himself.
Can two people who once loved deeply remember a feeling, that feeling of being unable to talk, with a long memory.
She felt distressed. I thought I didn't want to see him again. But the first time she saw him, she fell again.
This is so unfair. Remembering is pain, forgetting is relief.
But if she chooses again, she will still choose to be Qingyun, although these memories are heavy and even painful.
She doesn't want to forget him.
"I have already sent someone to fetch the lover's grass, you don't have to go find it yourself." Ling Chen said slowly.
Qingyun looked at her, seeing his black pupils like black jade.
"If my brother knows that I'm here, there will be a new war. Only ordinary people will suffer in the war." Qing Yun said.
"You really care about the world's affairs. It doesn't matter, he won't know for a while." Ling Chen looked at her.
"Sooner or later he will know that my brother's spies are everywhere. Unless you kill me now." Qingyun looked at him boldly.
"Take it away!" Ling Chen waved his hand.
Lan Ling was locked in that house, the doors and windows were locked, and there were two guards at the door.
In the meeting hall, Ling Chen looked ahead.
Now the princess of Beiyi is in their hands. They are rediscussing the war with Beiyi.
If you continue to join hands with Changfeng, you will hand over Princess Beiyi to Changfeng. Otherwise, if Changfeng knew that Qingyun was in their hands, he would definitely misunderstand that they deliberately took away his sweetheart.
This time coincidentally, no one wanted to hand over Qingyun to Changfeng.
She was too similar to that person, not in appearance, but in an indescribable feeling.
Han Zhitao didn't want the emperor to keep guarding the unconscious Lan Ling. Although he had selfishness towards Lan Ling, it was quickly suppressed in his heart.
He was very saddened by what happened to Lan Ling. But he understands better that Ling Chen is the emperor, or his best friend, whether in public or private, the first thing he thinks of is Ling Chen.
For more than two years, no woman could make Ling Chen open his eyes until he met Qing Yun.
"If you don't cooperate with Changfeng, using Qingyun as a bait is also a strategy." Zhang Yang proposed this idea.
Everyone is silent. Zhang Yang is a person from the Jianghu, taking Tian Ming's place. He knew the empress, had met several times, and was not clear about the grievances between the empress.
He also didn't feel any resemblance between Qingyun and the queen. He spoke his mind objectively.
"Using her as bait can only catch Xindar. It's not a big threat to the other two tribes." Huo Jingyun said.
Because Qingyun's chess piece actually disturbed them.
"Follow the original plan." Ling Chen said suddenly.
"Your Majesty!" Han Zhitao disagreed.
"Jingyun, you tell Changfeng that you captured the princess and gave her to him. There is no need to change." Ling Chen got up and left.
He clearly knew that this was not Lan Ling, she was just a bit like Lan Ling, why would he be shaken by her? Is my love for Lan Ling so fragile
Ling Chen hated himself.
Huo Jingyun took the order.
Qingyun had lunch in the room. A military doctor came and showed her the foot injury.
She leaned against the window and looked out.
Seeing Huo Jingyun gallop away.
She was locked up all afternoon.
Qingyun has been thinking about how he will deal with himself. Use her as bait? Elder brother Xin Daer will definitely come to save him personally, and Xin Daer never does anything that is not sure, and Ling Chen is the same.
But there are always winners and losers in the contest.
Qingyun has already regarded this brother whom he has not met for a long time as a relative.
How Beiyi can be so strong has a lot to do with Xindal's iron fist.
However, no one can stop Ling Chen from unifying the Northern Wilderness Continent.
Or a marriage between Daxing and Beiyi? With Ling Chen's temperament, even if they marry, Ling Chen will not show mercy to Bei Yi. Once you take that step, there is no turning back.
Besides, Xindal has always been on good terms with Lingfeng.
Qingyun thought about it, and thought a lot.
Her feet were so swollen that the military doctor wanted to give her a massage, but she kicked her out. She massaged herself gently.
In the evening, a guard brought her meals.
Qingyun looked at the noodles in sour soup, "Hey, just give this princess some noodles. I want roast lamb and chicken drumsticks!" Qingyun refused to eat.
The guard said angrily: "You are a prisoner, and you still pick and choose!" He walked away angrily.
Huo Jingyun hurried back to report to Ling Chen, "I have already negotiated with Changfeng, and I will hand over Princess Qingyun to him tomorrow."
Ling Chen nodded.
"It would be the best if it could cause a civil war between them." Ling Chen said lightly.
"Well, Weichen has already sent people to spread the news that Princess Qingyun was hijacked. Xin Daer will know soon. After the princess is handed over to Changfeng, the minister will send someone to tell Xin Daer." Huo Jingyun said.
Ling Chen nodded.
There were crackling sounds from upstairs, as well as the voice of a woman cursing, Ling Chen frowned.
Han Zhitao went out to have a look, and came back to report: "It's Princess Qingyun, who just disliked the lack of appetite for the dinner and didn't finish it. I just dropped the cup in the room."
Huo Jingyun smiled, "She's quite hot-tempered! Throwing the cup if the dinner doesn't satisfy her appetite?"
"She wants to eat roast lamb and chicken legs..." Han Zhitao said.
Ling Chen looked up at Huo Jingyun.
She was willing to eat the same food as Lan Ling.
"Satisfy her!" Ling Chen said.
Ling Chen returned to another room, stood by the window, and could see the room of the person opposite.
The room was lit, and the shadow of the man could be seen occasionally.
They only met twice, she just resembles Lan Ling, and he is the princess of Beiyi, and Daxing is preparing to destroy Beiyi.
Now that the Yan Clan in Beiyi has migrated and gave Qingyun to Changfeng, Xindar and Changfeng will inevitably have civil strife, so they will take advantage of the situation. As long as Xindal and a few key figures are killed, Beiyi will surrender.
As for the common people, as long as it brings them a stable and prosperous life, they don't care who is their king.
Ling Chen stood by the window and watched, and suddenly found that the woman opposite was also standing by the window and looked at him.
Ling Chen was stunned for a moment, and stepped away. He was flustered. He is the emperor, how could he escape in such a panic
Why is there such an inexplicable feeling
Ling Chen gritted his teeth, lay down, and extinguished the candle.
Early the next morning, Qingyun was brought out.
Huo Jingyun looked at her, "When the princess was attacked by bandits, our emperor's guards happened to find you and rescued you. Now, the people from Beiyi are here to pick you up. Today, I will send you back home."
"Are you really going to let me go back?" Lan Ling was surprised.
"Of course, you are a hot potato with us, of no value, and we don't want to intensify the conflict with Beiyi." Huo Jingyun said.
Qingyun smiled, "Do you think I'm mentally retarded? I'm the princess of your enemy country, how could you put me back so kindly? Tell me, what kind of conspiracy? Use me as bait? Or take the opportunity to kill me in the name of my savior?" Killed my elder brother, killed my clan?"
Ling Chen stared at Qing Yun coldly.
Qingyun met his gaze and said: "I heard that when the Daxing Kingdom destroyed the Dayue Kingdom, it didn't use much force at all..."
Ling Chen reached out and pulled out the Canglong Sword from his waist and pointed it at her chest, "You are right, it will be your disaster if you meet me. If you keep yelling, I will cut off your tongue immediately!"
Qing Yun looked at him and did not back away. She frowned slightly and stared at him, her eyes were black and blue, and her left foot was slightly limping.
With a wave of Ling Chen's hand, Qingyun was gagged, and was still in the sedan chair with his hands and feet bound.
A woman dressed as a guard came up on the carriage, and Qing Yun glanced at it.
The woman didn't speak, just stared at her covetously.
The carriage stumbled and walked for a long time, and finally stopped. Someone lifted the sedan chair curtain, it turned out to be Ling Chen, he walked over without a sound and touched her acupuncture points, untied the rope, and carried her out of the sedan chair.
Qing Yun saw the four characters "You Lai Inn" written on the door.
She also saw that Ling Chen and the others were all wearing plain clothes.
This should be the situation of Beiyi. The floating city was originally at the junction of Beiyi and Daxing, so it didn't take long to walk there.
Ling Chen carried her up to the second floor, entered the room, and let her sit on the bed.
Lan Ling couldn't speak because of the acupuncture points. She cast her eyes on Ling Chen vigorously, but Ling Chen stood outside the window and didn't look at him.
Ling Chen walked out of the room and asked Huo Jingyun: "Has our location been revealed to Xin Daer?"
Huo Jingyun nodded, "Yes, the appointment with Changfeng was at 3:00 p.m., and it was noon when I told Sindal. If Sindal came earlier, he would have arranged for people to harass him on the road."
Ling Chen nodded.
"Your Majesty, do you really want to hand her over to Chang Feng?" Huo Jingyun thought about Qing Yun's eyes that seemed to be able to speak.
"Yes, I always like to obtain the greatest benefit with the smallest cost." Ling Chen said.
Han Zhitao sighed, it will be difficult to find a woman so similar to Lan Ling in the future. During this period of time, the ministers of the court kept writing to the emperor to accept his concubine, but the emperor rejected them all. A few of them also sent people outside to look for the emperor to find interesting and clever women who could imagine Lan Ling, but the emperor never took a second look.
Only this woman named Qingyun can arouse the emperor's emotions.
Just after three o'clock, a group of people entered outside the inn, and Chang Feng was the leader.
As soon as he entered the gate of the inn, it was still early, and there were not many guests for dinner, only a few people sat on the first floor.
Chang Feng exchanged a few words with Huo Jingyun, and immediately went up to the second floor.
Ling Chen, Han Zhitao and others were sitting at the table outside the door drinking tea.
Changfeng entered Qingyun's room.
Qingyun looked at Changfeng in surprise.
"Princess, I heard that you were robbed by bandits. The king is very anxious. The whole Beiyi is looking for the princess. As soon as Changfeng heard about the princess, he came over immediately. Come, come home with me."
Qingyun looked at him vigilantly, unable to speak.
She has always disliked Changfeng. Changfeng has harassed her twice. Last month, Changfeng was whipped by Xindal for molesting her while drunk.
Seeing Qingyun's appearance, Changfeng knew that she had been given acupuncture points, "Don't worry, this place is too close to Daxing, it's not safe, I'll get you back to our site before I can open acupuncture points for you."
He stepped forward to hug Qingyun, leaned over to look at the beauty in his arms, and kissed her on the forehead.
Ling Chen watched Changfeng hold Qingyun out of the room with cold eyes, the way Changfeng looked at Qingyun made him upset.
Changfeng carried Qingyun down the stairs, strode out, hugged her on his horse, got on the horse, beat the horse and whipped her away.
Ling Chen looked at Huo Jingyun and Han Zhitao, they were depressed.
Changfeng ran with Qingyun for a while, his left hand was just under Qingyun's ribs, his arm could vaguely touch Qingyun's soft softness, his heart was surging.
He liked Qingyun since he was a child, but Qingyun didn't like him. When he was 12 years old, he shot a tiger. During that hunt, his right leg was injured and his left arm was almost bitten off by the tiger.
Under the guidance of his tribe, he peeled off the tiger skin himself. The Butterfly tribe has a custom that during the round lock ceremony, the most precious part of the prey will be given to the most important person in his heart.
He gave Qingyun the precious tiger skin.
But after two days, he discovered that the tiger skin was given to Yun Duo by Qing Yun, that silent girl with dark skin.
For so many years, he has had countless women around him, but what he wants most in his heart is still Qingyun.
Two months ago, after Qingyun fell off his horse, his temperament changed drastically, and he was not as indifferent to him as before. He proposed marriage to Sindal again, but Sindal still refused.
That night, after drinking, he asked her, "Where do you like Qingzhou and Fucheng?"
Qingyun looked at him in surprise, "I like them all, what's wrong?"
"Okay, if you like it, I'll grab them and give them to you!"
Qing Yun frowned, but his eyes lit up. He couldn't help but hugged her, but Xin Daer whipped her in full view.
Qingyun, how could I allow you to marry someone else! You can only be my favorite.
If Sindal objects again, or marry you to someone else, I will take Sindal's place! In this world, if you want to get what you want, you can only have the supreme power.
And choosing to cooperate with Daxing is also an expedient measure for him to have the supreme power in Beiyi.
There is a mountain in front, and there is a small wooden house on the hillside.
Changfeng looked down at Qingyun in his arms, and suddenly stopped his horse.
He came to the wooden house with Qing Yun in his arms, and looked back at the guards: "You all stand there! Don't come near this wooden house."
She carried Qingyun into the cabin.
This time, he didn't want to let her go. He wanted her to be his woman. Only then will she stop thinking about marrying another man. Women, maybe they don't like you at first, but when they become your woman, they won't run away anymore.
There is a wooden bed and simple bedding in the wooden house.
He took off his robe and spread it on the wooden bed, and put Qingyun on it. After closing the door of the wooden house, Qingyun's acupuncture point was opened.
Qingyun was shocked, she immediately understood what he was going to do.
"Changfeng, let me go back quickly. You are the patriarch of the Butterfly Clan, and you are related to the honor and disgrace of the whole clan. My brother will kill you if he finds out!" Qingyun pulled out the long whip wrapped around his waist and swung it over.
Chang Feng grasped the whip.
"Qingyun, I have liked you since I was a child, why don't you like me? How am I worse than others?"
"You have so many women, how could I marry you?" Qing Yun said.
"Yes, I have many women, but none of them are my first wife. The position of my first wife is only reserved for you!"
Qingyun shook his head, "Changfeng, I have someone I like. How can you be worthy of my elder brother?"
Changfeng didn't speak, and stepped forward to hug Qingyun.
Qingyun couldn't help shouting: "Come on, help me!"
Her shoulders were imprisoned by the long wind and she couldn't move. She saw the outer clothes being taken off by him, revealing the water-blue undershirt.
Chang Feng covered her mouth, "Qingyun, follow me. Follow me, the only woman next to me is you! I will drive them all away!"
Qingyun's left foot was still in pain, so he couldn't care about it now, and started kicking with both feet.
She bit Chang Feng's palm with her mouth, Chang Feng still didn't move, patiently took off her clothes to her chest, revealing the moon white bellyband... .
Qing Yun bit Chang Feng hard, his palm was bleeding, Chang Feng put down his hand and threw her on the bed.
Qing Yun couldn't help shouting: "Ling Chen!"
