Chapter 174 More than Just a Story?
Yunting said nothing.
"I ask again, why did you come to Dazhou?" Ye Qingcheng looked at him steadily, with a hint of stubbornness in his indifferent and calm tone, "If you still use the excuse just now to fool me, then you You can shut up."
Yunting's eyes were calm and his voice was cold: "What do I do in Dazhou that I need to let you know?"
"Sure enough, I haven't seen you for a while. I'm getting braver." Ye Qingcheng sneered and raised his hand to grab his chin, "Yunting, do you think what I just said was a joke to you? You should know how dirty and dirty the Imperial Capital of Shu is. The wolf's den. I really want to send the beautiful little cub in my hand into the wolf's den. In less than three days, he will be chewed down to only a skeleton. Do you think I can be cruel enough? "
Yunting's expression suddenly changed, and a fierce light burst out from his eyes.
"Don't look at me like that, I don't like it." Ye Qingcheng raised his lips nonchalantly, "You know my temper. I've always been a soft-spoken person, and nothing will happen to you if you just follow me. Hey, I don’t even know what I will do.”
Yunting pursed his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but he swallowed the words when he reached his lips.
"Ask whatever you want, can I still eat you?" Ye Qingcheng frowned, "Want to know about that little bastard?"
Yunting said calmly: "Where is he now?"
"Do you think I will tell you?" Ye Qingcheng smiled lightly, "I have no enmity with him. I have raised him carefully for three years. There was no reason for him to suffer some undue harm. But if you really provoke him, If you make me angry, that’s a different matter.”
Yunting pursed his lips tightly: "What exactly do you want to do?"
"Isn't this a nonsense question?" Ye Qingcheng came closer to him and kissed the corner of his lips, his voice softer, "You have always known what I want, and it has never changed from three years ago to now. "
Yunting closed his eyes: "You know it's impossible between us."
"Nothing is impossible." Ye Qingcheng said calmly, "As long as I want you, you can only belong to me in this life."
Yunting said nothing.
"Look at your forbearance, you look like a little daughter-in-law who was forced into prostitution." Ye Qingcheng chuckled, the smile dyed his brows, and his whole person looked lazy and charming, "Yunting, you and I will always stand on the same side. We are not enemies, let alone enemies. On the contrary, if you want revenge, I will be your strongest support."
Yunting said calmly: "I don't need your help."
"You need it." Ye Qingcheng's attitude was tough, "That little kid is my bargaining chip. If you have the ability, just be tough."
Yunting's expression was cold, and his expression showed an indifference that would repel people thousands of miles away.
"I know that you are loyal to Rong Yu now. He has saved your life. You need to repay him with your loyalty. I have no objection to this." Ye Qingcheng said calmly, "Jiuxiao Pavilion has influence all over the world. If you stay in Jiuxiao Pavilion, even if you are The Emperor of Shu has nothing to do with you, but Jiuxiao Pavilion is not an omnipotent god after all, you should understand what I mean."
When Yunting heard this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, which was fleeting and disappeared quickly like a flash in the pan.
"I won't push you too hard, I'll give you time to think clearly." Ye Qingcheng let him go, "Tomorrow is the birthday of the Queen Mother of Zhou Dynasty. If you have an idea before tomorrow evening, come to the Regent's Mansion to find me. If you miss the opportunity tomorrow, just Let’s collect the body of that little cub.”
After a pause, she raised her lips: "Don't worry, one life is worth another. If he dies, I will give you my life at any time."
After saying this, she turned around and left without any hesitation, leaving Yunting standing alone in the corridor in silence.
Back in the front lobby, Ye Qingcheng heard Nan Xi talking to shopkeeper Ouyang, "Wrap this string of jade."
"yes."
"How much?"
Shopkeeper Ouyang looked stern: "Princess Zhesha is my subordinate."
"What?" Ye Qingcheng smiled with interest, "If you buy something in your husband's shop, do you still need to give money?"
Nan Xi turned to look at her: "Are you done talking?"
Ye Qingcheng said: "We're done talking for now."
"I bought a jade necklace." Nan Xi said calmly, "I'll give it to you to wear."
Ye Qingcheng was silent for a moment: "The princess likes to give things to others?"
"Not really." Nan Xi smiled, "I'm here anyway."
"No need." Ye Qingcheng shook his head, "I am not short of jewelry. The owner of this Moyu Pavilion is the regent, and the boss in charge of this place is Yunting. I will definitely not ask for it if it is given to the money shopkeeper, and I am not willing to take advantage of their things for nothing. Cheap."
Nan Xi's expression was subtle: "You don't want to take advantage of Rong Yu, or you don't want to take advantage of Mr. Yun?"
"I don't want to." Ye Qingcheng said, reaching out and lifting her arm, "Let's go back to the palace for lunch. I'm hungry."
Seeing her like this, Nan Xi had no choice but to tell shopkeeper Ouyang to put away all the jewelry before getting up and leaving with Ye Qingcheng.
The shopkeeper and the waiter in the building watched them leave respectfully, watched the two get on the carriage, and then turned and walked towards the back door.
"What's going on?" In the carriage, Nan Xi leaned against the carriage in a leisurely manner and looked at Ye Qingcheng with raised eyebrows. "It seems that there was a story between you and Young Master Yun."
"A story?" Ye Qingcheng raised his red lips, "More than just a story?"
Nan Xi saw that she looked calm and generous, and there was not much gloom and depression between her eyebrows. She was obviously in a good mood, which meant that everything should be under her control.
"I heard Rong Yu say that when he rescued Master Yun, Master Yun was seriously injured and was already dying." Nan Xi said, "And most of them were injuries."
Ye Qingcheng lowered her eyes, and her eyebrows were stained with a cold and cold breath: "I will get back what he has suffered with interest."
Nan Xi was silent, and her mood was indescribably subtle.
She felt that this woman was very similar to Rong Yu in some aspects. No wonder Rong Yu could treat such a beautiful woman as air and be indifferent.
The carriage returned to the Regent Palace and stopped outside the gate of the palace.
Ye Qingcheng did not rush to get off the car, but said lightly: "If Yun Ting intends to stay in Jiuxiao Pavilion for the rest of his life and is willing to dedicate his loyalty to your husband, I think I will probably have to follow him and obey your husband's orders."
Nan Xi raised an eyebrow.
"So you can ask me anything you want to know in the future." Ye Qingcheng smiled, "Although I have always been used to doing my own thing and can't stand others telling me what to do, for Yunting, I am willing to put down my status and pride."
Nan Xi heard this and pondered for a moment: "I do have a question for you."
"Go ahead."
Nan Xi said: "Do you know soul-stealing?"
"Soul-stealing?" Ye Qingcheng's lips curled slightly, and she smiled happily, "I know a lot of things, but you can rest assured that I won't use these methods against you and the Regent."
