An Empire as a Betrothal Gift - Chapter 67
The king of Qin was assassinated and injured. The spring hunting was interrupted immediately, and all the people went back to the palace.
As the most valuable reward list, Ji Yue’s head has always been hot and coveted. He was assassinated by many people, and he would come every once in a while.
What is unusual is that your majesty is really hurt this time.
It should be noted that even the second best assassin in the past came, he was also defeated. He did not hurt Ji Yue a hair, let alone other small minions.
The whole court and the field were in a state of panic. They were guessing what kind of powerful person the other party was. They could have hurt his majesty so badly.
Only Wei Lian knows that the other party is not very good at all.
However, it is relying on the large number of people to fight with each other and try to kill Ji Yue. If it was not for protecting him, Ji would not be hit by the poisonous arrow. If Ji Yue had not been poisoned, he would not have been in such a mess.
In the final analysis, it’s because of him.
“Why are you in a daze again?” Ji Yue calls back his God.
Wei Lian returns to his mind and looks at the bandage wrapped on the bed. Ji Yue, wrapped like zongzi, purses his lips.
Ji Yue said that the injury was serious, but it was not serious. Compared with the previous undamaged experience, it was quite thrilling. In fact, it’s all skin injuries. After detoxification, it doesn’t matter much. The imperial doctors use the best medicine and stay in bed for a period of time.
This is far from being injured by real weapons and swords on the battlefield.
But it’s hard to see.
A few days ago, Wei Liancai came down from his bed, and in a twinkling of an eye, Ji Yue lay down again. Wei Lian is funny and helpless, and a little sour.
He couldn’t sleep well these days. He closed his eyes and thought of the arrow passing through Ji Yue’s shoulder blade and stopping in front of him. Often wake up, is a cold sweat.
He’s regretting.
I regret why I didn’t make it in time.
Wei Lian admits that he has concerns. His birthday is at the end of March, less than one month from the deadline mentioned by the master. He didn’t want to come to his head and give up all his work.
He had endured for so many years that he could not be destroyed.
This is the case with Wei Lian. Even in a critical moment, he always keeps a cruel calm and makes the most correct decision.
However, when he saw Ji Yue injured in front of him, and tried his best to protect him, warm and red blood splashed into his eyes —
Wei Lian thought, to his calmness.
He has to let these people die.
Therefore, Wei Lian killed the assassins all over the mountain.
He showed too many flaws. Whether it’s Ji Yue’s disappeared quiver, those dead assassins with Ji Yue’s logo’s arrow, Ji Yue’s well wrapped wound, inexplicably untied poison, or Xiao Hong’s Horseshoe print All kinds of evidence can show Wei Lian’s suspicions.
He believed that Ji would not be unaware. He is as careful as the king of Qin. When he investigates the identity of the assassin, he will not let go of these doubts.
Wei Lian has been waiting for Ji Yue to question him.
Not really. Ji Yue never asked.
Ji Yue was very quiet in bed to recuperate. She was really deaf to the things out of the window and said nothing about those doubts. She did not even ask what happened after he was in a coma that day.
See Wei Lian is still attitude as usual, intimacy does not halve.
Wei Lian was puzzled.
So big a flaw placed in front of Ji Yue, Ji more rigid as invisible.
Ji Yue is going to be blind?
Wei Lian looks at Ji Yue with a complicated look and finds that he suddenly doesn’t understand his idea.
He didn’t know, or could guess, but he didn’t want to think about it.
Wait for his confession.
One person asked, another said. They are so similar in temperament and experience that they are passive in their behavior.
It’s a real impasse.
“Nothing.” Once again, Wei Lian avoided the topic of countless times.
Ji Yue’s smile faded and soon recovered: “what birthday gift do you want?”
The topic jumps too fast, Wei Lian does not respond for a moment: “what?”
“Isn’t it your birthday in a few days? You can do whatever you want. ”
“…… I don’t think about myself since I was born? ” Wei Lian didn’t know what to say about him.
“It’s hard to get out of bed and walk around at the end of the month.” Ji more serious way, “this is the first birthday for you, it is not a small matter.”
Wei Lian met him when he was 19 years old. He missed Wei Lian for 19 years, so the first time he prepared for his birthday should be grand.
Wei Lian said, “I want you to get better soon.”
Ji Yue said with a smile, “yes. What else? ”
“…… Don’t block the sword or arrow for me in the future That picture was once a nightmare for Wei Lian.
Ji Yue pondered for a moment.Wei Lian asked, “do you agree?”
Ji Yue shook her head: “I can’t promise that.”
Wei Lian don’t go too far: “I’m angry.”
Ji Yue reluctantly leaned up: “angry solitary also can’t agree.”
“When I was alone, I was in great danger. Things on the mountain that day might be common in the future. Always be vigilant and pay attention everywhere to prevent people from taking their lives out of loopholes. That’s how you come from a young age. ” Ji more slow voice way.
Wei Lian felt a slight pain on the tip of his heart.
“I don’t want to put you in danger, but if one day the danger is close to you, I will still ignore it and block you again.” Ji more Ning Mou way, “Gu do not want you angry, do not want you to be hurt.”
Wei Lian turned to him and said, “but I –” I don’t want you to get hurt!
“No more.” Ji more gently stopped him, “solitary guarantee that day will not happen again. If you can protect yourself, don’t worry
Wei Lian:
Ji Yue wears a bandage to say this is really not convincing.
“That day Ah Lian cried for me Ji Yue suddenly changed his address and said with a light smile, “even if there is only one drop, let me see it, but it is more painful than the arrow that pierces through the skin.”
Wei Lian remembers his arrow, but Ji Yue doesn’t remember Wei Lian’s tear.
Wei Lian has always been calm and strong. Ji Yue has never seen such obvious fear and confusion in Wei Lian’s eyes, accompanied by heartbreaking fragility and perplexity. Even at that glance, he should believe that Wei Lian loved him.
No less than he loves him.
Therefore, even if he later discovered that there were many doubts, Wei Lian did not say that, he did not ask.
“Even if you don’t cry, I will take care of myself.” Ji Yue held his face, “Wei Lian, believe me, OK?”
Wei Lian gazed at him for a long time and said in a low voice, “well.”
On March 28, Wei Lian was born.
Your birthday is a grand one. What’s more, your majesty has ordered a grand ceremony. The more lively it is, the better. It is bound to give Wei Lian a perfect birthday banquet.
Wei Lian was in the state of Chu 19 years ago, but there was no one to celebrate his birthday. But every year is just a few more dishes on the table, chopsticks will not be more. Completely take a form, cold, no human taste.
If he is lucky, he will bring some small things to him when he comes back from wandering around the world. However, the master came and went without a trace, and adopted a policy of stocking him. Sometimes, no one was seen for a year and a half.
This time he went to Qin as a pledge. He didn’t come to see him when such a big thing happened. It can be said to be very ruthless.
With the master’s ability, if you really want to see him, you can pass through heaven and earth without obstruction, not to mention a palace of the king of Qin.
Wei Lian sighed the friendship between teachers and apprentices, and looked at the red clothes in front of her eyes like a happy dress: “do you want me to wear this?”
Does he look like a man in red?
The palace man who brought the clothes said with a smile: “Your Majesty specially asked your servant to send it to the young master. He told him to put it on. He would wear it happily after his birthday.”
Wei Lian said Put it down. ”
Wei Lian has never worn red in his life. The state of Chu was still white, and Wei Lian was born elegant and elegant. His white clothes made him feel immortal.
Wei Lian had never touched such a gorgeous color as red.
At the request of Ji Yue, he had to wear it this time.
After changing the clothes, he picked up the curtain and came out. In the eyes of the palace people, there was a trace of amazement. He said, “please go to the Jinluan palace, young master.”
The banquet was set up in the Jinluan hall, which was originally a state banquet, which was qualified to be held here. However, Ji Yue held a birthday banquet for Wei Lian here, inviting all officials to participate in the banquet, which shows that we attach great importance to it.
At the moment, the hall is already full. At the beginning of the month, the haze of the king’s assassination seems to have faded. Anyway, it is a small scene, calm and calm. Isn’t their majesty all right now?
Ji Yue sits at the top of the table, waiting for Wei Lian to arrive. He has a strong recovery, so far the injury has been cured, hiding under his clothes can not be seen.
Today, the young people on the high seat did not wear the Xuanfu which symbolizes the king, but was dressed in red, which was the same as that in the night of Shangyuan. Phoenix eyes flow, no double color, the end is the ups and downs.
Just when the ministers were wondering why his Majesty was wearing red clothes today, some people looked at the door, and a little breath came from the dinner.
The young man in red stepped into the hall like fire, and his skin was as white as snow. The exquisite facial features are not covered by the compelling color, but let the original restrained and elegant childe full of high spirited publicity.
Just like a young man in fresh clothes.
He can hold down such a dazzling red.
He should be so dazzling.
The person who has a heart suddenly finds that the young master has collected the color of the clothes As like as two peas.
If other people collide with your majesty, it is called collision. If this That can only be said to be a pair of matchmaker, quite right, boast on the end.
Many people felt that they had eaten a mouthful of Meng’s food in silence.Li Yushi immediately took notes: “on a certain day, on a certain day, your majesty and the young master are wearing red clothes, like a pair of bridegroom…”
Wei Lian saw Ji Yue’s clothes, and immediately understood. After the ceremony, he sat down beside Ji Yue and covered his sleeves and said, “the abacus is very good.”
Ji more light cough way: “very good-looking.”
Wei Lian said with pride: “I look good every day.”
Ji Yue followed: “yes, yes.”
Wei Lian couldn’t help laughing.
This idiot.
As soon as the protagonist arrives, the banquet begins. Ji Yue made a lot of preparation for the birthday banquet, including singing and dancing, opera, and even invited folk juggling troupes to perform in the palace.
Just to amuse Wei Lian.
Wei Lian gives face to appreciate go on, live up to Ji Yue’s intention.
After three rounds of drinking, many ministers were drunk. On the contrary, Ji Yue was injured, and Wei Lian was poured with a cup of wine. Both of them did not drink.
In the field, the jugglers were performing swords and guns, and musicians were playing with pipa. A big man played a prop dagger, which made many ministers applaud.
Wei Lian’s eyes are slightly deep.
The faster the musician’s hand is, the louder the pipa is, the louder the strings are, the more powerful they are. At the last stroke, the pipa broke.
As soon as he received some instructions, he rushed to the top of the sword, raised his sword and chopped at Ji Yue.
It was a real knife.
The assassin may be late, but he will never be absent.
Some ministers are still holding a glass of wine, but some have been scared to wake up, stunned to face this sudden change.
As soon as Ji Yue’s eyes and eyebrows are cold, Wei Lian is beside him. If the distance is too close, his first reaction is to protect Wei Lian from injury, and then make his own response.
This subconscious protective action makes Wei Lian’s fingertips tremble, and Ji Yue’s words flashed in his mind.
“I don’t want to put you in danger, but if one day the danger is close to you, I will still ignore it and block you again.”
“I don’t want you to be angry or hurt.”
…… He will never allow Ji Yue’s injury to happen again in front of him!
Action is faster than reason. When the assassin’s head fell to the ground, the ministers were silent for a moment.
They didn’t even respond to what had just happened.
The strong smell of blood makes people wake up from dullness, and the timid maids scream.
Ji Yue looks unchanged, just quietly watching the young man holding the bloody sword.
With the mountain forest half awake to see the back together.
He can see clearly.
At the critical moment, Wei Lian pulled out the bodyguard’s sword and cut off the assassin’s head with a sword.
They looked at Wei Lian in astonishment.
He killed the assassin faster than any other bodyguard in the field.
The young man stood still, his sword still dripping with blood.
Then he raised his eyes, threw the sword out of his hand, inserted it into the pillar, and nailed the corner of the musician’s clothes who wanted to escape.
The musician, a thrilling soul, was set in place.
After a while, Ji Yue Fang said faintly, “catch up. Put them in jail. ”
Immediately, a bodyguard brought the musicians and jugglers down for interrogation. There are those who don’t have long eyes. They want to catch Wei Lian. After all, gongzilian hides his skills and his heart is punishable.
Ji more cold drink a: “back down!”
The guard shook his hand and retreated in silence.
Wei Lian turns around, looks up at Ji Yue, and takes back his sight in an instant.
Ji Yue gets up, slowly walks down from the top and stops in front of Wei Lian.
He approached him and whispered a word.
Wei Lian’s face suddenly turned reddish. After a moment, he nodded helplessly.
