Chapter 142 - Wise Decisions"The w.a.n.gfei is indeed kindhearted, actually using her own life in exchange for the life of an ant. No wonder even Xie w.a.n.g, who killed without batting an eye, would think highly of her." Ning Zheyan laughed gently and innocently, but the corner of his lips raised up to mask his ridicule.
He was ridiculing himself for being so empathetic and compa.s.sionate. Most people were probably ants in Ning Zheyan"s eyes.
"Perhaps, in the eyes of the Master Ning, Yin Sheng was as lowly as an ant, but he had given me warmth in my most difficult years. In my heart, she was not an ant, but a good sister to me. Wei Yuanwei lifted her eyes and met his gaze. She had clearly caught a cold glint flash across Ning Zheyan"s eyes.
Ning Zheyan"s face was still smiling, but the fingers inside her sleeves were actually curled up. If she didn"t have any other uses, she would have already been dead by now. No one had ever treated him with such provocation before. Even the pavilion master, who was high and mighty, had great reliance on him.
Yin Sheng suddenly coughed as she quickly stepped forward to grab Yin Sheng"s finger. Her eyes were filled with pleasant surprise: "Yin Sheng, you"re awake?"
"Princess. I thought I"d never see you again. " Yin Sheng was already sobbing.
"Silly girl, stop crying. If you continue to cry, you"ll turn ugly." Wei Yuanwei said with a trembling voice.
Yin Sheng caressed her swollen cheeks, and spoke with a hint of desolation: "Originally, you were ugly, but this time you are even uglier. Even if you are better, you will at least have scars." Xuan Li probably did not like his more.
"Don"t let your thoughts run wild. You stay here and recuperate. I"ll come to see you in a few days." Wei Yuanwei smiled and held Yin Sheng"s hand. As long as he was alive, he could make a comeback of anything. So what if his appearance was ruined?
Yin Sheng then fell back into sleep, after exchanging a few words with the old lady, she followed Ning Zheyan out.
At this moment, she realized that Ning Zheyan"s face was as white as paper, and even her lips were completely bloodless.
Wei Yuanwei hesitated for a moment before stepping forward to support Ning Zheyan. "What happened to Master Ning?"
Ning Zheyan"s hands were like ice, cold to the bone, and she could even feel Ning Zheyan"s body trembling.
"Why aren"t you coming out to support your young master?" Wei Yuanwei called out to the cold night that was as smooth as water, and more than a dozen figures flew to Ning Zheyan"s side like demons.
A golden palanquin fell to the ground, Wei Yuanwei supported Ning Zheyan and sat in the middle, in an instant, the palanquins were lifted, and all of them flew quickly in the air, forming a strange scene.
"My lord, that palanquin is already flying towards the underground palace. Should we stop it?" Shangli, dressed in black, jumped down from the roof and landed behind Yun Xie.
"No need, Qing City is not my fiefdom after all. I don"t want any trouble to arise." This was the territory of the Yanyu Manor, so even if he were to go and save Wei Yuanwei, he had to do it quietly, otherwise, there would be some unforeseen events. Currently, he was at the top of the storm, and if he were to get into a conflict with the Jianghu, the crown prince would probably seize the opportunity to make a fuss. At that time, the trust that the emperor had for him would crack, and if he were to do anything, the trust he had for him would be broken down one day.
Shangli saw through her thoughts, "Could it be that you want to put yourself in danger? It would be better to have your subordinates follow you. "
Yun Xie patted Shangli"s shoulder: "I still have other things to tell you. If I still don"t return tomorrow, you should hurry back to the Mo City to pretend to be me to help me settle the affairs of my manor. If I still don"t return in three days, you should lead the Mo City"s hundred thousand Steel Cavalry to the underground palace."
"Here!" Shangli knew that the things that the Duke had decided on could not be changed. At first, he thought that w.a.n.g Lu had lost all of his troubles, but now, it seems that w.a.n.g Lu had lost his bait. Now that the fish has surfaced, naturally, w.a.n.g Ye has to go and retrieve the net himself.
In the night, Wei Yuanwei tilted her head and glanced at Ning Zheyan, only to see him perspiring profusely, as she bit his lips, as if she was enduring it silently.
Wei Yuanwei lifted her hand and flicked at Ning Zheyan"s shadow, thinking that snake demon Ning also had this day, and it was truly retribution.
Ning Zheyan took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, and poured a pellet into her mouth. Only after a while did he finally heave a sigh of relief.
"Why didn"t you run away just now?" Ning Zheyan"s voice was still rather weak.
Run? She had indeed thought about it, but when she thought about Yin Sheng who had not recovered yet and the shadow killer who was hiding in the darkness, she hesitated.
"How could that be? Master Ning has shown me kindness that is as heavy as a mountain, I naturally have to keep my promise, not to mention that taking advantage of a person"s situation is only a vile act, how can I do such a heartless and unjust thing? " Wei Yuanwei said with a smile on his face.
"Princess HuYang is truly intelligent and wise, if you had taken a step back then, the one sitting in front of Zheyan at that moment would only be a corpse filled with poison needles."
Ning Zheyan used a thin piece of silk to carefully wipe off the sweat on his forehead. His face slowly blossomed into a meaningful smile, like a poppy, while his beauty tempered the poison in her body, causing her back to feel cold.
Ning Zheyan laughed and used a silk to wipe away the bewitching blood trail between Wei Yuanwei"s brows. Her movements were gentle and slow, if she did not know what kind of person he was, she would have thought that was the most beautiful lover in the world.
"In the future, if you follow by my side, I will naturally not treat you unfairly." Ning Zheyan"s thick eyelashes slowly fluttered, the seductive light in her eyes made people unable to stop themselves from breathing.
"Master Ning is praising me so highly. Master Ning is a snow lotus on a mountain, I can only look up, how can I get close?" Wei Yuanwei moved a distance away from Ning Zheyan.
The clear and cold moonlight pa.s.sed through the gla.s.s curtain and hit Ning Zheyan"s white cheeks in a mottled manner, making it hard to see his expression, but it was possible to feel a trace of hostility from his body. No one had ever rejected him before.
Ning Zheyan smiled slightly, and lowered her eyes as she played with the jade-like fingers. He could throw a person into the sky or kill them without a trace, everything happened in an instant.
"Is the w.a.n.gfei hoping that the Evil King will come and save you? I m afraid that at this time, he and Wei Guanshu had already been living together. Oh, maybe Xie w.a.n.g is receiving kindness from the beauty right now. "
Wei Yuanwei"s eyes flashed with a trace of broken sorrow.
