063 Finally met
If the hidden power of the Gao family is still there and the Snake Marquis can still take care of the Gao family, how can he return the ring to her?
Gao Wanrong refused to accept the ring and sneered: "The Marquis has a good plan. How can Wanrong give her sister to the Marquis for his own freedom?"
Marquis Pingyang had expected that she would say this, and said calmly: "It's just a 'transaction', why do you call me? My sister is hovering around, with only two purposes, one is to save you, and the other is to kill me." She only needs to pay a little to get the first thing she wants, and she can still stay and kill me, what's wrong with that?"
Gao Wanrong's face was slightly cold, "Besides, if I agree to you, wouldn't the Gao family become the sword in your hand?"
Marquis Pingyang chuckled, "Miss Gao, do you think there is still a Gao family?" There was no concealment of ridicule in his tone.
Gao Wanrong's face turned red instantly, "What if I don't agree?"
"Then I no longer need to care about your sister's life. In addition, the remaining members of the Gao family under my control will completely disappear from this world, leaving no one behind." Pingyang Hou lowered his head slightly and pointed his finger. He tapped his forehead lightly and said, "Throughout the total number of people in the Gao family, including your sister, there are estimated to be seven to eight thousand people."
His voice was gentle, but the words he spoke were like ice knives cutting into Gao Wanrong's heart, making her feel cold.
Gao Wanrong fell silent, then reached out to take the ring.
Pingyang Hou came to find her for this matter, so he had naturally controlled his sister's whereabouts. With his methods over the years, Gao Wanrong would not doubt that if he really wanted to kill her, she would not survive.
She had absolutely no way to save her sister in this cell. She could only get out of here and take one step at a time.
"Who do you want her to babysit?"
"Eleven." According to what he has checked these days, the status of that woman beside Snake Marquis is unparalleled by others. If there is any change, as long as she quietly reveals something to Qing Yi, Qing Yi can avoid it. Those innocent disasters.
Gao Wanrong tasted this unfamiliar name carefully and was sure it was not someone she recognized in the past, "Female?"
"Yes." Pingyang Hou Ruzhishui's eyes dimmed suddenly.
Gao Wanrong caught the strange look in his eyes, and her heart throbbed suddenly.
In the past seven years, I have only heard about how cold-hearted and ruthless he was, how brave and resourceful he was, but never heard about his romantic and charming officials.
It turned out that he already had a woman he cared about, but it was pity that she was still dreaming here. He turned coldly and mocked: "It turns out that there are people who cannot be taken care of by the Marquis. They need help from an incompetent person like me."
Marquis Pingyang didn't care about her ridicule, he just smiled lightly and said, "How is it?"
Freedom, although not complete freedom, is extremely longing for anyone who has been imprisoned for seven years, not to mention the life and death of his sister.
But when Gao Wanrong thought of leaving here, it might be a farewell to him, and we would never see each other again in this life.
This is not what she wants.
Try asking: "Who is that 'woman'?"
"A dead soldier of the Snake Kingdom." After all, Gao Wanrong would know Qing Yi's identity when he saw Gao Wanping, and Marquis Pingyang didn't have to hide it. "But I don't want others to know about Eleven."
Gao Wanrong's hanging heart suddenly dropped. The Yan State and the Yue State were incompatible with each other, and dead men were unworthy killing tools in the Yue State. There was no way that a woman with such status could become a member of the Yan State. Royal concubines.
She lost the secret power of the Gao family and may have lost the bargaining chip to marry him, but the situation of the daughter he cared about became even worse than hers.
I couldn't help but feel a little more comfortable.
"I can try to see my sister, but I won't go to Xixiang."
"Does Miss Gao think that if you stay in this cell, your sister will agree to my request?"
"Of course I can't stay in this cell anymore." Gao Wanrong's eyes were fixed. Since he wanted to protect the woman, he would seize this and raise the stakes. She wanted absolute freedom.
Pingyang Hou chuckled softly, "Miss Gao thinks highly of herself, and she also thinks highly of your sister."
Gao Wanrong was stunned.
Pingyang Hou's eyes flashed with disdain, he stood up, walked to the door, climbed the steps, and then turned back, "How can anyone bargain with the terms I set out?"
Gao Wanrong's face turned pale. Could it be that that woman was not that important in his heart?
Impossible, she knew how arrogant he was. If it wasn't important, he wouldn't come to negotiate terms with her. He stood up and calmed down, "How can a sale be decided unilaterally and not allowed to be negotiated?"
"Ms. Gao has no leverage to negotiate terms. She can only choose to agree or disagree with the conditions I propose."
After Pingyang Hou finished speaking, his cronies had already opened the prison door.
Gao Wanrong panicked when she saw that he was really going to leave, "Then my sister..."
Marquis Pingyang turned around and said calmly: "Just wait and collect her body." He stepped out of the door.
Gao Wanrong froze, as if he had already seen his sister's bloody body, her face turned white and colorless, and she took two steps to catch up, "Wait a minute."
Marquis Pingyang stopped and glanced over.
Gao Wanrong bit her lip again and again, with tears in her big eyes, and she mustered up her courage, "I want to stay where I can see you. As long as my sister feels that I am free, that's all." Maybe this is It's her only chance.
Pingyang Hou pursed his thin lips slightly, and after a while he said: "Let me think about it." After saying that, he turned around and went out, and the heavy prison door was closed.
Gao Wanrong sat down weakly.
Xiao Qi still has no whereabouts. As a dead soldier, under such circumstances, it can be concluded that he is dead.
But Eleven was still unwilling to give in and still wandered around Jinniu Town in his free time.
Hopefully he was just seriously injured and taken in, unable to contact her.
In addition, I hope to find the mansion where I last met Marquis Pingyang.
On this day, Eleven was still walking aimlessly around the street with his horse. When he turned an alley corner, he saw Ziyun dressed in purple looking for him with a worried look on his face.
Every time Ziyun passed a door, she would stop to listen and look. The anxious look was something that Eleven had never seen on her face before.
Eleven suddenly realized that after Xiao Qi disappeared, all her thoughts were focused on Xiao Qi, and she almost forgot about Zi Yun's existence.
Seeing her like this, I intuitively felt that Ziyun was also looking for Xiao Qi.
Ziyun is still at the gate of life and death, still a slave to death.
Dead slaves are no better than dead soldiers and can move freely. I don’t know how Ziyun used to leave the training ground and come out to look for Xiao Qi.
Eleven sighed secretly, Ziyun really loved Xiao Qi in her heart.
Ziyun turned around and saw Eleven standing at the corner. He was startled for a moment. The anxiety on his face was not gone, and he wanted to pretend that nothing happened. In this way, he looked a little embarrassed.
"I... came out to do something."
Ziyun has never stated his love for Xiao Qi, and judging from the current situation, even if something happens to Xiao Qi, Zi Yun has no intention of expressing it.
Eleven pretended not to know. In this way, he found nothing to say and just nodded, "I have nothing to do. Let's go out for a walk."
Ziyun obviously had no intention of going with her, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Eleven had to nod again.
Ziyun led the horse and walked past her, paused and said, "By the way, I heard that His Majesty is coming back."
Shi Yi's heart sank. Yue Ji's return meant that Dan Hong was coming back. Dan Hong knew that something had happened to Xiao Qi and didn't know if he could bear it.
She knew that this day would come sooner or later, but she always hoped it would be later, at least after she got the accurate news about Xiao Qi.
Seeing Ziyun get on his horse, looking indescribably lonely and helpless from behind, he felt soft in his heart, "Ziyun, if I find the whereabouts of Xiao Qi, I will definitely tell you."
"Okay." Ziyun turned around, a smile finally appeared on his lips, shouted, and left in the dust.
Shiyi looked at Kaikong, his eyes were slightly astringent, and he murmured in a low voice, "Danxin, are you still alive in the world? If you are no longer here, there is someone underground who came into my dream and told me, okay?"
After searching for a while in Jinniu Town, still finding nothing, we headed towards the deep waterfall again.
Although she had been there many times and never been able to see him, Eleven refused to give up.
Marquis Pingyang said that he had composed a new song and wanted her to listen to it.
She didn't want to listen to any of his damn music, but she thought that since he had this intention, he would see her again.
She only wanted to find that one place where she could see him.
Eleven horses were left to graze in the forest and then took a detour on their own, heading towards the waterfall and the pool.
Amid the sound of the waterfall, the melodious sound of the piano came.
Eleven excited spirits, their heartbeats accelerated involuntarily, rushed towards the bluestone beside the pool.
Sure enough, sitting by the turquoise water, that familiar white elegant figure was gently plucking the strings with her slender fingers.
She should have hated and disgusted this man very much, but whether it was hatred or disgust, it was mixed with some inexplicable emotions.
In the end, she couldn't tell who she should regard this person as.
Eleven shook his head, getting rid of all the distracting thoughts that he shouldn't have.
She was looking for him this time because of Xiao Qi.
He took a deep breath to calm his heart that was about to jump out of his throat. He walked forward slowly, looking at the green ghost face that was reflected in the water, and said in a gentle and gentle tone, "Mr."
The man raised his head, with bottomless black eyes and a gentle smile, "How do you like my new song?"
Eleven listened to his music and wanted to say 'very good', but he knew that in front of this person, these false things would only make him unhappy, so he coughed lightly and said, "I didn't pay attention."
Her frankness made Marquis Pingyang smile slightly, put his hands down, turned his fingers lightly, and started playing again.
Shiyi had no intention of listening to music, but it was not easy to find him.
Afraid of interrupting him directly and causing his displeasure, he walked away angrily, and what she wanted to know was lost again.
Be patient and sit by the piano.
Although the music was excellent, she was so anxious that she could not listen to it. She just hoped that the music would end soon.
But the song seemed like it could never be finished.
Eleven endured it again and again. Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and suddenly stretched out his hand to press the strings.
Marquis Pingyang raised his eyes.
Although his eyes were still as still as still water and as soft as warm wind.
But Eleven still felt a flash of displeasure in his eyes.
(I wish you all a happy Chinese Valentine's Day. It seems a little late~~~Sweat~~~ I've been really tired and dizzy recently. I only found out about Chinese Valentine's Day when I came back to update and saw everyone's rewards. Regarding the "leg" cramps, thank you for your support. Guozi came up with the idea. I guess I sat typing for a long time and my legs were swollen as if they had been steamed. It seems that there is no way to achieve immediate results. Mom is really not good at it, haha.)
