MTL - Raising Wolves-v2 Chapter 85
When he was about to arrive at the palace gate, Lu Qing calmed down a little and patted Chen Xiaodao on the shoulder: "Xiaodao, after I enter the palace, you should go back to the Lu Mansion immediately and don't come out."
Even if Chen Xiaodao took advantage of the opportunity of the Tartar and the vassal king to enter Beijing and their eyes were focused on the other side to pry open the cracks, Lu Qing didn't think that Chen Xiaodao's movements would be seamless.
This is the capital, under Ning Juan's eyelids.
Regardless of whether Ning Juan set a trap to lure him back, Chen Xiaodao would be unlucky afterwards.
The Lu Mansion was a special place in Ning Juan's heart. He let Chen Xiaodao hide in it. It was his attitude. Even if Ning Juan was angry, he would put it away.
Chen Xiaodao knew the risks of what he did, and the consequences of being discovered by Ning Juan, but he was ready to take it, frowning and speculating: "Master, did something happen to Your Majesty? One is fake..."
"Even if it's fake." Lu Qing whispered, "I'll go back and have a look."
Chen Xiaodao said: "Young Master, you are not..."
Didn't he plan to feign death in order to leave the capital, the place of right and wrong, in order to leave His Majesty's side?
Lu Qing was quiet for a moment: "Xiaodao, I'm sorry, I failed you, but I may..."
don't want to leave.
Chen Xiaodao vaguely sipped a bit of meaning from his unfinished words, scratched his head, and then grinned: "It's okay, it's my own opinion. Master, do whatever you want, do it with confidence, I will always do it. Support you. Don't you say that? Life is just a hundred years of life, as long as you have no shame and don't hurt others, then you can choose the happiest path."
This sentence is indeed what Lu Qingze said to Chen Xiaodao.
I didn't expect that Chen Xiaodao would turn it over and hand it over to him.
Chen Xiaodao's eyes were as clean as a mirror.
Lu Qing looked at him for a while, then nodded slowly.
The palace gate was from far to near, and it was soon to come, but in a short while, the surrounding defenses had increased a lot. Seeing a carriage approaching, the Imperial Army immediately stepped forward to question it.
Lu Qing's heart sank, and he immediately jumped off the carriage and showed the tooth sign.
The head of the forbidden army checked the lower teeth card, his face became somber, and he lowered his head to move away: "My lord, foreign carriages are not allowed to enter the palace without authorization."
Lu Qing knew the rules, turned back and nodded to Chen Xiaodao who was full of worry, and walked into the palace gate without looking back.
The defense in the palace has indeed tightened a lot, and there are more Jinyi guards who are not familiar with Lu Qing.
Lu Qingze's heartbeat could not help speeding up slightly, and he hurried to the Qianqing Palace, but after a few steps, an acquaintance came across him, leading a group of Jin Yiwei.
At that time, Zheng Yao's capable subordinate Xiao Jin.
This brocade guard, Lu Qing, has a deep memory. It is one thing to be versatile. Three years ago, he chased Duan Lingguang's merchant ship and escorted Duan Lingguang into Beijing.
Now it is Jin Tongzhi.
Seeing Lu Qingze, Xiao Jin's face was surprised - several senior officials in Jinyiwei already knew Lu Qingze's identity, and quickly dismounted and asked: "Lu... Your Highness, why are you here, the whole palace is looking for you... "
Lu Qing panted slightly and asked directly, "Where's Your Majesty?"
Xiao Jin was silent for a while: "Your Majesty... It's in Jixuexuan right now, you come with us."
Lu Qing saw his reaction, and his heart sank again.
Could it be that there is a 1 in 10,000 chance?
Xiao Jin was about to help Lu Qing to get on the horse, when the breeze blew past him, Lu Qing had already passed him, got on the horse neatly, and only left three words: "borrow it."
After he finished speaking, he flicked the reins, turned his head, and ran towards Ji Xuexuan.
The cold wind in the middle of the night slapped his face, and when the fast horse ran wildly on the narrow palace road, Lu Qingze's heart was like a galloping horse's hoof, jumping up and down, beating non-stop.
The tension and worry that he had never had before filled his mind, even if Ning Juan was sitting in Jixue Xuan at the moment, waiting for him to throw himself into the trap, he would be willing.
Whether it's true or false, he only needs to see Ning Juan right now.
It seemed like a long time had passed, and it seemed like it was just a moment, the outline of Ji Xuexuan came into view, while Lu Qing pulled the reins when the horse was about to rush to the door, restrained the castration, and turned over.
He had never ridden so fast before, and his legs even slackened as he dismounted.
The guards nearby all knew Lu Qingze, and when they saw him coming on horseback, they were all dumbfounded and startled, and they stepped forward to help him.
Lu Qing waved his hand and walked in quickly.
Lu Qingze's bedroom was brightly lit, and Changshun was wandering anxiously outside the house, so anxious that the corners of his mouth grew a blister. Hearing the familiar footsteps approaching, he raised his head abruptly, and saw Lu Qingze's figure hurriedly approaching. , was stunned for a moment, with an indescribably complicated expression on his face, and then sighed a long time: "Master Lu, how can you... ah, come in quickly."
Lu Qing nodded slightly to him, took a breath, and pushed in the door.
The window was not closed in the house. The moment he pushed the door, the night wind poured in, and there was no strong smell of medicine that he imagined.
In an instant, Lu Qing understood, but without pausing, he closed the door with his back, walked into the room, looked up and saw Ning Wan sitting quietly on the couch by the window.
It was only a stick of incense before and after, and before we parted, his eyes were full of soft smiles. Ning Juan, who was unable to hide the joy in his eyebrows, had changed his appearance. There was no expression on his handsome face, and his eyes were so dark that he could not detect emotions, and he seemed to be full of emotions. With another dark color so strong that it can devour people.
He was casually playing with a wine cup in his hand, and when he heard footsteps, he just raised his eyes calmly and looked at Lu Qingze, without the slightest disturbance.
This kind of Ningyan, on the contrary, is more disturbing than the angry Ningyan.
Lu Qing was worried about Ning Juan all the way, and even forgot how to organize the language explanation. The moment he saw Ning Juan, his words couldn't help but stop.
"Lu Qingze." Ning Juan stared at him and said slowly, "I was counting just now."
Such Ning Juan made Lu Qing dare not speak at will, and slowly approached him step by step, followed him and asked, "What are you counting?"
"I'm counting. Before the incense stick burns out, will you leave the capital with Chen Xiaodao, or will you come back to see me." Ning Lian looked down at the wine cup in his hand, "I bet you will not come back, If you don't come back, I'm ready to drink this glass of wine."
The incense beside him had burned to the bottom.
Realizing what was in the glass of wine in Ning Wan's hand, Lu Qingze's expression suddenly changed, and when there were still three or two steps away, he rushed up, intending to take the glass of wine away.
However, at the moment when he was close to Ning Juan, his eyes darkened, and he was overturned and pressed on the couch.
Ning Juan lowered his pressure, breathed heavily, and gritted his teeth in a distorted smile: "You know what it's like to be worried, too?"
Fear?
Lu Qing was dazed in front of his eyes, thinking along Ning Juan's words.
He was indeed afraid.
When he came all the way, panic and unfamiliar emotions filled his heart, he suddenly understood the panic of "losing", and did not dare to have any luck.
It turned out to be the fear of losing someone important.
And this feeling, Ning Wan tasted twice.
His mind was buzzing for a while, and he tried to keep his tone calm: "Guoguo, I don't want to leave, you put the glass of wine away first, and we'll talk later, be obedient, okay?"
Ning Yan just showed a weird smile, grabbed Lu Qingze's chin with one hand, brought the wine to his lips, and poured it down without hesitation.
Lu Qing paused, did not struggle, just opened his eyes slightly, looked at Ning Juan without blinking, swallowed the spicy wine obediently, and his stomach suddenly caught fire.
His reaction made Ning Juan startled for a moment, he threw away the wine glass, wiped the wine from the corner of his lips that he didn't have time to swallow, and said lightly, "This is not poisonous wine, how could I be so stupid... Just sleep peacefully for a while. "
Drowsiness drug in the wine.
Lu Qingze's eyelashes trembled, and soon he fell into an unconscious dream because of the alcohol and medicinal effects.
When he woke up again, his eyes were dim.
Lu Qingze's brain was still a little dizzy, he managed to open his eyes, and vaguely judged that it was not far from the time before he was drugged and fell asleep.
He seemed to be lying on a bed.
Outside the veil, bright candles danced, and Ning Juan was pouring wine at the table.
Lu Qing subconsciously wanted to sit up, got out of bed and walked over, but when he raised his hand, he heard a sound like iron chains colliding, his hands and feet were bound by something, and he couldn't lift it up.
He lowered his head slowly, and with the help of the dim candlelight coming through the veil, he could see what it was.
It was a pair of handcuffs and shackles made of gold, and the ends were tied to the head of the bed, locking him to the bed.
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then found that his clothes had also been changed.
He didn't know where the black dress he was wearing had been thrown away, but now he was wearing a bright red wedding dress.
For a moment, Lu Qing felt a little ridiculous. Ning Juan put on his wedding clothes and locked him on the bed... what was he trying to do!
Ning Juan also heard the sound of the chains, and with two wine cups in his hand, he opened the gauze and walked over.
Lu Qing was a little annoyed by being locked up, and was about to question when he heard Ning Juan speak first: "You abandoned me again."
In one sentence, most of the anger in Lu Qingze's heart was dissipated.
It was only then that he discovered that Ning Juan was also wearing a red wedding dress.
Not only that, but this room is a decoration that was only available during the big wedding. It is very festive.
There was no joy in Ning Juan's voice. He was holding the light behind his back, and his expression was blurred, but Lu Qing could only hear him say plainly: "Just like three years ago... You promised me that I would return to Beijing as soon as possible, and I am full of heart. Waiting happily for your return, waiting for you to come back is the news of your death."
"You didn't reject me today, even if it's just because it's my birthday, I'm very happy."
Ning Juan approached step by step with a calm tone: "I know I made mistakes in the past, so I don't want to repeat the same mistakes. But am I not good enough? I'm so obedient... You're still ready to go again."
He saw that Lu Qingze's attitude was gradually softening, and he was no longer so resistant.
Unexpectedly still used.
Lu Qingze's Adam's apple was choked, and there was a feeling of breathlessness, not because of the oppressive feeling of the mountains and rain on Ning Wan's body, but another strange emotion: "I really don't want to leave, you misunderstood…"
"I'm worried that you will have a fever tonight if you catch a cold." Ning Juan cut off his words, his voice was steady, but the hand holding the wine cup was shaking slightly, and he put the wine on the head of the bed, the whole person looked like a deadly depressed The volcano was spewing lava, "so let Changshun go over and take a look."
Then Chang Shun hurriedly ran to report to him that Lord Lu did not return to Ji Xuexuan, nor was there with His Highness, and there was no Lord Lu in the vicinity.
His head was dizzy and blank for a long time.
The fear of hearing the news of the inn fire three years ago swept through him again, spreading from fingertips to heart.
Did something happen?
He really should have personally sent Lu Qingze back to Ji Xuexuan to lie down before leaving, in case something happened to Lu Qing...
He came to Zheng Yao coldly and sent him to secretly search the entire palace city, but before he moved, someone reported Chen Xiaodao's change.
Only now did Ning Juan know that Lu Qing was not in danger, but just left him again.
He and Chen Xiaodao left.
At that moment, since the reunion, all the anger and gloomy emotions that had been suppressed in the bottom of my heart erupted together.
He could not wait to immediately lead the army to capture Lu Qingze, but another thought slipped through his mind at the same time.
So he ordered Jin Yiwei to spread the fake news.
"If you don't have that news, you will just leave, hide in a place where I can't find it, and never come back."
Ning Juan bent down, and Lu Qing finally saw his expression clearly.
The eyes of the young emperor, which always lit up when he saw him, were gloomy and lackluster, and expressionlessly stretched out his fingers and crushed the tear mole at the corner of his eye, and whispered: "You are always so ruthless... You can throw it away at any time.”
Lu Qing had just woken up, and his eyes were already a little wet. After the thin skin was crushed hard, the end of his eyes turned red, as if he had cried.
Lu Qingze's heart shrank and hurt: "It's not like this, for me, in this world, you are the most important..."
"fraud."
"Why did you promise me but didn't do it? Why did you fix the ice lantern? Why did you leave that letter?" Ning Jian interrupted him, his voice suddenly sharpened, "It will be three years after you leave, three years after you leave. Nian Lu Qingze! You just don't want me like that, do you still have any heart... I'm dying of pain."
He finally vented the anger that he wanted to vent the moment he saw Lu Qingze, but the end tone was low, and he trembled a little, as if he was suddenly stabbed by something, and the pain made his voice unsteady.
Lu Qingze's heart also hurt badly, his throat kept choking, it became difficult to swallow, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Guo Guo, I never thought of abandoning you."
The voice fell, but Ning Juan didn't soften his face, instead he bullied him, pinched his chin, and said coldly, "Don't call me that."
His strength was too great, but Lu Qing felt a little pain in his grip, and frowned.
Ning Juan noticed it, his fingertips stagnated, he relaxed a little, rubbed his delicate jawline, and his tone suddenly calmed down: "Today is the night of our wedding, Huaixue, let's drink at the Hexi bar."
The contrast between before and after seems to be split.
Obviously, Ning Juan in front of him didn't look like the mad dog who would bite him before. He looked very calm, but Lu Qing felt that Ning Juan in front of him was more dangerous and crazy.
But Ning Juan became like this because of him.
Lu Qingze's breathing was a little short, and the countless thoughts in his mind were like a torrent, mixed together, washing his sanity.
Ning Yan leaned over and took the wine cup by the bed, took a drink first, then put the other in his mouth, lowered his head, kissed Lu Qingze's lips, and gave him the strong drink forcefully .
The soft lips were attached, but Lu Qing was unable to refuse at all, his lips were forced to separate, the wine was forcibly poured in, and the burning sensation rolled from his throat to his stomach.
The new wine, along with the wine he drank before, erupted in an instant, smothering precarious reason.
Those torrents washed away the dikes in a flash.
Lu Qing's self-proclaimed calmness collapsed in front of Ning Juan. When Ning Juan let him go, he said hoarsely, "Ning Juan, I'm your teacher."
Ning Juan paused slightly and said coldly, "I don't care."
If he really cared about those things, he wouldn't be where he is today.
Go to his general ethics.
"Before you, I also had some students. In my eyes, you used to be the same as them, but you are the most different."
Lu Qingze didn't mean to remind Ning Juan to respect the teacher, the sound of the chains shook, he raised his hand, and after a moment of hesitation, it landed on the person's eyebrows, and said softly, "I'll be with you. You grow up, watch you grow, watch you...become the monarch in my mind."
Ning Juan was his most satisfied student.
"I came from a far away place, and in this incompatible place, you are my greatest solace."
His fingertips are like fluttering butterflies, depicting Ning Juan's facial features, making Ning Juan dare not move.
Ning Juan stared at him intently, his indifferent expression eased, and he whispered, "I know."
Lu Qing didn't know whether Ning Juan answered the first half or the second half, but he was already a little drunk. After his reason was washed away, the person who usually never speaks his mind continued to talk about his heart: " I have a ruler in my heart. I used to think that our relationship can only stop at teachers, students and relatives, but this time of reunion..."
He paused, and did not continue.
Ning Juan's feelings are fiery that he has never felt before, which is completely opposite to his calm character like a pool of stagnant water.
Ning Juan's enthusiasm made the stagnant water in his heart become warm and boiling.
That line has long since been receding and has become blurred.
"I don't want you to face the strange eyes of the world." Lu Qingze put his hand on Ning Wan's side cheek, and he stared at this handsome young man who was a little unfamiliar, but very familiar, "I don't want you to do it. I want you to make a choice that is detrimental to you... Qing Shi will be remembered for a lifetime."
Ning Juan didn't dare to disturb his fingertips, the muscles on his face were tensed, he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't care about being famous!"
He took a deep breath: "Haven't we faced it once? Huaixue, the eyes of the world are not so important, what qualifications do they have to judge, this is a matter between us!"
Lu Qing looked at the resoluteness in his eyebrows, dazed for a moment, and the corners of his mouth twitched reluctantly: "Is it worth it? For a half-dead sick child like me, I have to worry all the time, I am so many years older than you. , you will regret later..."
"I won't regret it."
Ning Juan finally interrupted him once, grabbed him by the wrist, and his eyes were heavy: "I am willing, I am willing to be cheap, Lu Huaixue, you don't know, even if you stare at me, I will be happy and have a sweet dream, you just So underestimate my feelings for you? If that's what you're worried about, then I can tell you that what you're worried about will never happen."
Lu Qing looked at him blankly, blinked his eyes, and suddenly felt that something cold slipped out of the corner of his eyes.
After a long while, he realized that it was the tears that were shaky in his eyes just now.
I cried?
Lu Qing thought blankly that he never cried for anyone. Those fierce emotions seemed to be separated from him by a layer of water. He sank to the bottom of the water and watched the people on the shore cry with cold eyes. The tears dripped into the long river. In the middle, he was taken away in a hurry, and it was clear that there was no trace.
He will sigh for others, but not for anyone.
Lu Qing rubbed the wet corners of his eyes, and his heart, which had been beating so much before, suddenly became more intense, and said with difficulty: "Perhaps in your heart, I don't seem to have selfish desires, but I actually have many selfish desires..."
His rosy lips opened and closed a few times, and his voice trembled: "Guo Guo, I..."
"Don't call me that." Ning Yan's hand moved up, took his hand, and stroked his cheek, "Huaixue, call me Jiwei."
The last time Ning Juan asked Lu Qing to call him his name, Lu Qing did not respond.
Ning Juan stopped calling him teacher, and stubbornly called him by his words, in order to constantly remind him that they were no longer just teachers and students, and Lu Qing only called His Majesty Ning Juan after he came back. a little distance.
Lu Qing felt as if his sanity had been burned away by the two glasses of wine, and his lips moved slightly.
Ning Juan clenched his hand, lowered his head impatiently, like a lost traveler in the desert, thirsting for a bit of water, and repeated, "Huaixue, call me the word."
Lu Qing looked at those scorching dark eyes for a long time, closed his eyes, and said softly, "I was thinking of you when I got to the gate of the city, Ji Wei."
Only then did he realize that he didn't want to see another person beside Ning Juan.
When the final sound fell, Ning Juan's ecstatic kiss also fell, he kissed Lu Qingze's tearful mole in the corner of his eyes forcefully, breathing rapidly: "It is mortals who have selfish desires, Huaixue, be a little more selfish to me. Bar."
It is best to learn to be jealous and unwilling to possess it because of him.
Ning Juan pressed his hand, fingers intertwined, inseparable, lips kissed the fingertips of his other hand repeatedly, like an order, like a request: "Huai Xue, try to accept me."
There were still a few cold tears in Lu Qingze's eyes, but the blood all over his body was boiling, and he thought vaguely:
He taught Chen Xiaodao to be worthy of the heaven and earth.
At least at this moment, he and Ning Wan should be worthy of the world.
He and Ning Yan looked at each other for a long time, and the tense nerves finally relaxed, nodded, and said, "Okay."
The response he got was no longer vague, and a smile finally broke out on Ning Juan's face.
When the wedding dress on his body was peeled off, Lu Qing only shrank slightly, and did not refuse again.
His face was intoxicated with an intoxicating red due to the intense emotions and alcoholism, his eyelashes were moist, the light-colored eyes were washed with tears and became clear and bright, and the mole at the end of his eyes was red.
The big red wedding dress made that face more and more prosperous. Just as Ning Juan had guessed from his youth to the present, Lu Qing looked better than ever after wearing the wedding dress.
This is a beauty that he can only enjoy alone.
In the subtle sound of chains, when he completely possessed the fragrance of plum plum, Ning Lao sympathetically kissed Lu Qingze between his frowning brows, and kept reassuring him: "It's alright, it won't hurt soon..."
His bright moon finally fell into the red dust.
He won the bet.
So Lu Qing belongs to him.
