When Shangguanze came back, Ning Cheng knew what kind of pit he had fallen into.
He whispered, "Piao'er, you lied to me."
"What did I lie to you?" Piao'er was innocent.
"That killer of yours said you were forced into slavery!" Yes, Ning Cheng was not calm at this moment.
"So you came to save me?" Chuaner asked with a smile.
Ning Cheng was speechless and fell silent.
Ju'er was still reluctant to let go of him, as if afraid that this guy would run away if he let go.
Shangguan Ze couldn't bear to see Piao'er throwing himself into his arms like this, but he didn't know the past between Piao'er and this guy called A Cheng. Since this guy sold himself to save Cheng'er, at least he still has a heart.
He just stood inside the door without approaching, and said calmly, "A Cheng, that's the deal for the cooperation. You can sign the contract with my sister."
Ning Cheng didn't answer, he went deep into the wolf's lair, no matter how much he argued, it was useless, he was very silent.
After Shangguanze left, he said to Ping'er in a deep voice, "Have you had enough trouble?"
His voice was very fierce, and Pian'er was really a little timid, so she let go resentfully, and stood behind him, at a loss.
"What's going on?" Ning Cheng asked.
Piao'er sighed, "Let's talk in the room."
After entering the room, Ning Cheng could smell the strong smell of wine, and it was only then that Pian'er remembered that he was cooking wine.
She rushed to the table and was relieved when she saw that the wine at the bottom of the pot hadn't been burned. "Fortunately, this is the 300-year-old snow sculpture my brother found for me."
Ning Cheng glanced at it, but remained silent.
He is addicted to alcohol, but alcohol does not affect him. He does not get drunk with his own wine, nor does he covet other people's cups.
Ping Erte poured a glass of wine graciously, "Try it, it will definitely suit your appetite."
Ning Cheng didn't answer, and said coldly, "What's going on, you can tell me or not."
"Drink the wine first, and I'll tell you." Ju'er smiled wickedly. Not to mention Ning Cheng, who is familiar with her tricks, even people who are not familiar with her would guess that she was in the wine when they saw her wicked smile. Hands and feet.
"Say!" Ning Cheng's patience was almost at the end.
"Are you afraid that I will put medicine in the wine?" Piao'er asked jokingly.
"Yes." Ning Cheng nodded without hesitation.
"Hey, who do you think I am?" Piao'er was a little angry.
"Aren't you?" Ning Cheng asked again.
As soon as the words fell, Piao'er poured the wine in his hand on Ning Cheng's face, and said very seriously, "A Cheng, let me tell you, your Shangguan Piao'er was indeed raised among men! But, I Clean and clean. You can think of me as you like, but you can't treat me as that kind of woman!"
Ning Cheng froze in place, letting the drink slowly flow down his cheeks, his long eyelashes were soaked with water, blurring his vision.
This scene, this moment is so familiar, but so far away, it clearly happened a few years ago, but it seems so far away that it happened in the previous life.
He even clearly remembered that the wine a few years ago was cold, but the wine today is warm.
The angry face from a few years ago seemed to overlap with the angry little face in front of him. He subconsciously blinked to see it clearly, but the water droplets on his eyelashes fell off as he blinked, and he could see clearly the face in front of him. This face is clean and beautiful, unexpectedly... There is no anger, only a smile.
Ping'er is laughing.
At first she was full of anger, but she couldn't help laughing when she saw Ah Cheng's foolish appearance. She didn't expect that this fierce and cold man would be fooled by her one day.
She handed over the handkerchief, "I'm sorry, I did it on purpose."
Yes, she said "I did it on purpose"
"You!" Ning Cheng really didn't know what to do with this woman.
He didn't take her handkerchief, but pulled the cuff to wipe the wine off his face. Not knowing whether the anger in his heart was blocked or helpless, he let out a long mouthful of foul breath unconsciously.
"Okay, let's say you've drank this glass of wine, and I'll tell you what's going on." Ju'er sat down and told the truth of the matter seriously.
Ning Cheng heard it in disbelief, and before he could recover, Pian'er brought the paper, ink, brush and inkstone in front of him, "Write it, my brother promised to let me go, just write it to me Bar."
Ning Cheng snorted, if he signed it, it would definitely be the worst deal he has ever done in his life.
He stood up, "You're fine, I'm leaving, the world is far and wide, never see you again."
In a hurry, he grabbed his right hand, stuffed the writing brush in, and warned, "You promised yourself! If you don't write, I promise you won't be able to leave the gate of the Shangguan Mansion!"
"Stop making trouble." Ning Cheng said lightly.
"It's okay if you don't write, you stay with me." Piao'er said again.
"It can't be done! Don't pester me anymore." Ning Cheng said seriously.
"You obviously care about me, why don't you admit it?" Chuan'er was really anxious, the indifference in his eyes scared her.
"I just pity you."
Ning Cheng put down his pen, and walked around Piao'er, but Piao'er couldn't hold onto his right hand, so in desperation, he grabbed his left hand, clasped his fingers, and clenched it tightly.
Ning Cheng froze for a moment, he didn't struggle like before when his right hand was held, but he said sharply, "Let go!"
"Don't let go!" Piao'er became stubborn.
"How on earth do you want to let me go?" Ning Cheng had never been so aggrieved in his life, being controlled by a woman.
Pian'er sniffed, obviously anxious to cry, but she still had a willful look, "You say you like me, and if you say it, I'll let you go."
Ning Cheng fell silent.
Piao'er was overjoyed, and said quickly, "You can never say anything for the rest of your life, but stay for the rest of your life."
Ning Cheng was really convinced by this woman, "Why bother?"
"I like it!" Ping'er replied calmly.
As she replied, she unconsciously clasped her hands even tighter, and at this moment, she suddenly noticed something was wrong with Ning Cheng's hands.
She quickly let go, took his hand to look at it carefully, and exclaimed, "Your hand..."
At first, she thought that his palms were stiff because of his resistance, but when she clasped them tighter, she realized that something was wrong. The stiffness of his palms was not intentional, but it was just like this.
"What's wrong with your hand?" Piao'er asked anxiously, "Did Han Xiang hurt you?"
Ning Cheng didn't make a sound, this hand...the arm was abandoned for the great cause of the restoration of the Western Qin Dynasty, and the princess's belongings were hidden in the palm of his hand. Now, there is no Xiqin but only Daqin, there is no Xiqin princess but Daqin empress, and his hand has become a habit. If it wasn't for Ping'er's reminder, he... would have forgotten.
Remember, it's all on purpose.
Get used to it, but forget it.
Ning Cheng was immersed in her own world, but Yu'er was so anxious that she was going crazy. She pulled Ning Cheng and kept asking, "Tell me, did Han Xiang hurt you? Why are you still in pain? Talk!"
She pulled him and checked him up and down, "Whether your words will be successful, where else are you hurt? I won't force you, will your words be successful?"
Unable to get any words out of Ning Cheng's mouth, Pui'er let go of him and strode out the door, "Brother...Brother...help me kill Han Xiang!"
"Pian'er!" Ning Cheng hastily called out.
Looking back, Ning Cheng's whole heart was gripped. Because, he saw the always giggling, heartless, sharp-toothed Chuan'er, with tears streaming down his face...
"I... I'm fine. It's not Han Xiang's injury." He didn't realize that his voice was much gentler.
Piao'er hurried back and asked earnestly, "Then what happened to your hand?"
Ning Cheng looked at her, and became serious. He said, "Piao'er, not only my eyes are blind, but also my hands are useless. What do you like about me?"
"I like that you beat me." Ju'er blurted out, maybe this is not the reason, and she couldn't figure out why she liked it.
Ning Cheng smiled wryly, "There are many people who can beat you."
"But I happened to meet you!" Ping'er replied stubbornly.
"You don't even know who I am, how dare you like me?" Ning Cheng asked again.
"It's not because of who you are that I like you." Ping'er replied.
Ning Cheng had always bickered with her, and had never lost a fight for so many years, but now he was silenced again and again.
"Tell me who you are!" he asked.
Ning Cheng did not hesitate, and revealed his identity. Piao'er was startled, "So you are that great general from Beili! The master of the Ning family!"
Seeing her reaction, Ning Cheng laughed unconsciously, "I know now, it's not too late."
But Jue'er clapped his hands violently, "Ning Cheng, I admire you the most among the generals in Daqin! You haven't lost a single battle in Beili, how did you do it? Why did you leave after winning? I I have always hoped that you will become the king of Beili, attack Dongwulai and destroy Lezheng."
Ning Cheng looked at her with raised eyebrows, he didn't expect her to pay attention to war.
"Did your hand hurt on the battlefield?" Ping'er asked seriously.
"Probably." Ning Cheng replied lightly.
Ju'er pulled his hand over again, Ning Cheng wanted to hide, but she held on firmly.
Jue'er couldn't figure it out, "Why did you hurt it, why can't you move your palm?"
Complicated eyes flashed across Ning Cheng's eyes, and he said flatly, "Just let go, and I'll tell you."
Xie'er really let go, Ning Cheng took out the dagger, forcibly cut a small cut in the palm of his hand, and pulled out a gold needle.
Pian'er couldn't help covering her mouth, frightened, "How did this needle... come from?"
"My master's." Ning Cheng answered truthfully.
"Han Yunxi, the queen of Daqin?" Ju'er was taken aback again, "Why do you hide it in your hand? You can't break the pot and throw it like this if your arm is useless? Is this needle very precious?"
"This golden needle is..."
While Ning Cheng was speaking, Ju'er took a handkerchief to bandage the wound. She flicked his fingers and squeezed his palm.
Before Ning Cheng could say the rest, Jue'er interrupted, "After the needle is taken out, the palm of my hand seems to be able to move!"
"Well, I can move, but I don't have the strength." Ning Cheng replied.
Ping'er hurriedly took his hand and clasped his fingers together, "It doesn't matter if you don't have the strength, as long as you can hold me."
She clasped her hands tightly on her own initiative, and then asked, "What did you just say about the origin of this golden needle?"
Ning Cheng looked at the tightly clasped hands, and didn't know what to think, so he didn't speak for a long time.
Pian'er actually reminded her to be timid, especially afraid that he would shake off her hand again and want to leave. Therefore, she was also silent.
Not knowing what Ning Cheng was thinking, he slowly raised his clasped hands, pressed them to his lips, and the kiss fell on the back of Chen'er's hand.
He said, "I'll stay, my son. There's only one condition."
Ju'er was elated, staring at the hand being kissed, probably drunk, she didn't even ask what the condition was, so she replied, "I agree!"
Ning Cheng couldn't help but roll his eyes at her, he said, "Forget my identity, I'm just A Cheng."
Ju'er readily agreed, "I haven't participated in your past, so of course I can forget it!"
