Refusing to marry the king of broken sleeves

Chapter 4: After the funny thing left the palace, Ling Qinglian bid farewell to Huangfu and Yi, and left alone.

After he left, Huangfu Yi got into the carriage, but he didn't expect that as soon as he got on the carriage, Huangfu Yu followed him.

"Don't you have a carriage yourself?" Sitting on the soft couch, he frowned slightly, and looked at Huangfu Yu who was sitting on the side with a little dissatisfaction.

Smiling indifferently, Huangfu Yu turned to look at him, as if he didn't notice his displeasure at all: "Fourth brother's carriage is more comfortable.".

The corners of his mouth suddenly twitched uncontrollably, Huangfu Yi shook his head helplessly, and was immediately defeated, so he had to let him rub his carriage again.

The carriage drove out slowly and traveled on the spacious street. The wheels rolled over the stone-paved ground, making a grunting sound, and the carriage also bumped slightly.

Supporting his head with one hand, Huangfu Yi leaned on the soft couch, closed his eyes to rest his mind, and ignored Huangfu Yu, as if he didn't exist at all.

After being silent for a while, Huangfu Yu turned his head to look at him, opened his mouth, and seemed hesitant to speak.After struggling for a long time, he took a deep breath and said aloud, "Fourth Brother, Ye Yuan really hasn't left the capital, has he?"

The handsome brows were slightly raised, and the tightly closed eyes slowly opened. In the deep and narrow phoenix eyes, there was a cold expression. Huangfu Yi raised his thin lips, and said with a chuckle: "What do you think?" ? Didn’t you just say that Ye Yuan never left the capital? Why are you asking me now?”

"Isn't that just to send Ling Qinglian away and prevent him from suspecting Ye Yuan?" Huangfu Yu hurriedly explained with a wave of his hand, "But you also know that it is impossible for me to know Ye Yuan's whereabouts all the time. Is there still a chance to leave the capital?"

Still looking relaxed and composed, Huangfu Yi chuckled lightly, and said nonchalantly: "Lao Liu, I didn't expect you to doubt me."

"Fourth brother, you misunderstood." Seeing that he had misunderstood what he meant, Huangfu Yu hurriedly said, with a nervous expression on Junyi's face, "I'm also worried, just in case it really is the night Yuan, and the emperor knew about it, then I can't explain it clearly."

Seeing the genuine worry on his face, Huangfu Yi didn't get angry with him, but just sighed and said: "Lao Liu, do you think I would do such a thing and be caught by others? Fortunately, Ling Qinglian didn't fall for it." Trap, did not really regard Ye Yuan as the assassin, otherwise, it would be really unreasonable."

"Yes." Huangfu Yu also frowned, with a serious expression on his face, pursed his lips and said, "This Ling Qinglian can tell right from wrong."

Huangfu Yi didn't make a sound, his phoenix eyes were full of contemplation, and his expression was solemn, making it impossible to guess his thoughts.

He didn't know if Ling Qinglian really discerned right from wrong and didn't suspect Ye Yuan, or was there another mystery hidden in it?The relationship between him and Ling Qinglian had always been estranged, and they even seemed to dislike each other, but this time Ling Qinglian helped him once intentionally or unintentionally.

After being silent for a while, Huangfu Yu seemed to have remembered something, his expression suddenly became extremely serious and nervous, and he hurriedly said: "Since it is not Ye Yuan at this moment, why does Ling Qinglian's subordinates push the suspicion on Ye Yuan? ? Could it be that someone deliberately framed you?"

Slightly pursing his graceful thin lips, Huangfu Yi didn't make a sound, his eyes were slightly squinted, his expression was extraordinarily sharp and gloomy.

Although he didn't answer aloud, his reaction indicated that he had acquiesced, and even guessed in his heart who was secretly framing him.

"Then who would do that on purpose?"

"Who do you think it will be?"

Faced with his rhetorical question, Huangfu Yu began to ponder, and while thinking, he muttered: "You have rarely made enemies, and the people who framed you must not be for revenge. If it is not for revenge, then you can only get in the way." Some interests of that person. From this point of view, there are several suspects."

"Tell me who these suspects are, and who is the most suspicious?" Huangfu Yi looked at him with his head tilted, and asked with a light smile.

With one arm around his chest and one hand on his chin, Huangfu Yu began to analyze: "The boss has been a good man since he was a child. Although he also has his own ambitions, he will not frame his brother like this. Let alone the third child, he has always been simple-minded. , and there is no scheming. From this point of view, could it be..."

He stopped immediately, turned his head to look at Huangfu Yi, with a surprised and shocked expression on his face.

Without speaking, Huangfu Yi nodded lightly, expressing his agreement with his speculation.

However, his response made Huangfu Yu even more shocked. After a long time, he came to his senses, swallowed quietly and said, "Why did he do this?"

"For what?" After muttering, Huangfu Yi sneered, and said disdainfully, "It's not because of that chair! It's just that I didn't expect that the first person he would deal with would be me. Honored!"

Opening his mouth, Huangfu Yu hesitated to speak, not knowing what to say.

As if he didn't expect him to say anything, Huangfu Yi said to himself: "Isn't there a banquet tonight? Guess, the banquet tonight will be very lively."

"How to say?"

Huangfu Yi didn't answer directly, but put on a trick and said: "Can't you find out tonight?"

Huangfu Yu: "..."

***

After leaving the palace, Ling Qinglian didn't go straight back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but went to the restaurant she often went to.

The owner of the restaurant, when he saw the victorious young general entering his shop, immediately smiled brightly, greeted him hurriedly, and said with a smile: "Lord Ling's presence really makes the small shop shabby." Brilliance!"

Ignoring the boss's flattery, Ling Qinglian just gave him a sideways glance, and said in a low voice: "Go and do it, I'll find someone." After speaking, she ignored the boss and walked straight to the second floor go.

As soon as he walked up to the second floor, he saw a man in a crescent white robe sitting in front of a square table near the railing.

The man has a handsome face and a peaceful expression, appearing extraordinarily leisurely.

Seeing Ling Qinglian walking upstairs, Gu Shaoyuan hurriedly stood up and walked towards him.

"Qinglian, long time no see." Going forward and patting him on the shoulder, Gu Shaoyuan said with a smile, "Isn't it tiring for this expedition?" As he spoke, he hooked his shoulders, and the two of them moved towards Go to the square table.

Sitting down face to face, Gu Shaoyuan took the wine glass, poured a glass for him, and handed it to Ling Qinglian.

Taking the wine glass he handed over, Ling Qinglian picked it up, raised her head and drank it in one gulp. After drinking, she couldn't help sighing: "Drinking with Shao Yuan, even this wine has become much better. .”

"If I were a woman, I would definitely be greatly moved after hearing what you said, but unfortunately, I am not a woman, so don't say such nasty words."

After laughing twice, Ling Qinglian picked up the jug, poured herself a glass of wine, and then drank it down in one gulp.

"Qinglian, drink less, you have to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a while." Seeing him drinking so fast, Gu Shaoyuan hurriedly persuaded him.

"It's okay, I'm happy today!" Waving her hands, Ling Qinglian said indifferently, and then raised her head and took another big drink.

Gu Shaoyuan was speechless and shook his head helplessly.

He still remembered that Ling Qinglian used to indulge herself in drinking like this before, and in the end she was as drunk as a puddle of mud, and he was the one who sent her back to the prime minister's mansion.

This time, he won't be asked to send him back to the prime minister's mansion again, right?This time, he was afraid that he was about to become a sinner.

The hero who won the battle was already drunk and passed out before returning to his home, so how could he do it?

"Shaoyuan, I'll tell you a very funny thing." Putting down the wine glass in her hand, Ling Qinglian leaned forward slightly, and said mysteriously, "When we were in the border town, an assassin appeared in our camp. It is said that it should be from the Sky Kingdom. Moreover, the person who first discovered the assassin actually said that the assassin was under the Fourth Prince's hand. Do you think it's funny?"

"That is to say, are these four princes in collusion with the Sky Kingdom?" Gu Shaoyuan also lowered his voice, pretending to be mysterious, but there was a disdainful smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Yeah, don't you think it's funny?" Ling Qinglian replied, but she couldn't help but burst into laughter first, "Someone actually framed the Fourth Prince to collude with the Sky Kingdom! I would like to ask you, is there such a time?" What's up?"

"Is there? Why didn't I know?" Gu Shaoyuan couldn't help laughing out loud, but there was a puzzled expression on his face, and his tone was very disapproving.

The two looked at each other and smiled, they knew very well in their hearts, they both knew that this was impossible, there must be someone secretly playing tricks, but they were still not sure who the trickster was.

After being silent for a while, Ling Qinglian said aloud: "There is a banquet in the palace tonight to celebrate my triumphant return."

"You won the battle, and the emperor held a banquet for you to celebrate, that means he thinks highly of you! Why are you so depressed?"

After hearing what he said, Ling Qinglian frowned even tighter, her face was extraordinarily solemn, and she sighed softly, "My victory was won by the lives of many people, and you also know that , why do I win one after another. This is nothing to be happy about at all!" The couch asked.

Knowing the meaning of his words and the concerns in his heart, Gu Shaoyuan also put away the smile on his face and looked serious.

After a moment of silence, Gu Shaoyuan sighed deeply, and said in a serious tone: "Qinglian, you have to be clear about what you should do. Those who achieve great things don't care about small things. Moreover, some people are destined to sacrifice for the overall situation Besides, you are the protagonist of this banquet, no matter how many doubts you have in your heart, you still have to attend, and you have to be very moved!"

"I……"

She opened her mouth, but Ling Qinglian couldn't say a word.

Just because he is very clear about what Gu Shaoyuan said, and he also understands that there will always be countless victims along the way to become a university student...
