1229th: Prepare for War, Recuperate (8)
Gu Min couldn't carry it, and neither could Liu Zhao in front of him.
The former has already paid the price with his life, and if the latter wants to challenge in vain, he may end up in a similar way.
Mr. Yuan Jing's words made Liu Zhao look disappointed, and his delicate eyebrows and eyes were stained with a ray of gray, as if his spirit had been taken away.
Seeing the face resembling an old friend, Mr. Yuan Jing's heart softened a little.
"You can try to trust Liu Xi, according to the old man's observation, she is not an unprincipled murderer. This child has a tough heart—"
Liu Zhao said blankly, "There are similar words in the writings of the deceased mother. Of course, the boy trusts her, but she and my father Liu She are not of the same way. These two people have their own calculations, and they obviously want to kill each other. On the surface, he can be a loving father and a filial daughter, so that people can't see the slightest flaw. The kid is also wondering now, what kind of schemes do these two people have in their stomachs—"
The premise of trust is honesty.
Both the late mother Gu Min and Mr. Yuan Jing in front of him said that Jiang Pengji was trustworthy, but the other party didn't say anything, Liu Zhao didn't feel safe.
He trusts Jiang Pengji, but he won't be 100% honest with each other, so he still leaves some room for it.
"No matter what the calculations are, have they involved Mr. Xiao Lang?"
Mr. Yuan Jing tried to enlighten.
"My sister didn't do anything, but my father—" Liu Zhao secretly gritted his teeth, "A few months ago, my father planned to be a matchmaker for the boy to marry an Orion daughter. The boy accidentally heard that the Orion girl is very likely to be the real Auntie. The body where the soul of sister Liu Xi resides. Wouldn’t it be a violation of human relations to marry her? In a panic, the boy had to beg Aunt Die to flee Chongzhou overnight--after thinking about it, it seemed that something was wrong everywhere. Knowing that there is no Orion woman at all, the previous speculations were all wrong. This is clearly a bait deliberately thrown out by others! The kid exposed his identity carelessly, and this little life may be missed by others."
It was not a rational choice for Liu Zhao to flee Chongzhou overnight, but he exposed himself.
But there was no turning back when he opened the bow, he had no choice but to run to the front line to seek Jiang Pengji's protection.
After saying this, Liu Zhao rubbed his eyebrows with a headache.
At a young age, he bears burdens and responsibilities that don't belong to him, and his brain hurts.
Mr. Yuan Jing was a little surprised when he heard this, and turned to ask Liu Zhao about the details about Liu She, and hesitated for a while without opening his mouth.
Liu Zhao said anxiously, "Sir, what's wrong?"
"Hmm - there seems to be nothing wrong here." Mr. Yuan Jing came back to his senses, waved his hand and said, "There are some things that I can't tell you in detail. It's not deliberately concealing, I'm afraid the more you know, the more dangerous you will be. Speak carefully Come on, your mother only has you as a single seedling, why don't you stay out of the matter or ask Liu Xi for protection to keep you safe overnight? If she knows from the spring, she will be gratified in her heart—"
Although Liu Zhao said his mind was very smart, but his acquired education could not keep up, no matter how good his talent was, it was a waste of a lot.
If he had been more cautious and thoughtful, he would not have been tricked out by "Liu She".
It's too late to say anything now.
"But—" Liu Zhao hesitated, "If the boy stays out of the matter, what will father and elder sister do?"
The "father" and "sister" in his mouth refer to Liu She and the real Liu Xi.
Because of Gu Min's writing and speculation, Liu Zhao suspected that Liu She was taken away, but he didn't know that there were other inside stories.
After all, the whole family is evil, Liu Zhao is the only normal person, he is under a lot of pressure, and it is understandable that he is not careful.
"The wish of the late mother was to protect them, and the boy is unwilling to disobey the will of the late mother."
Although Liu Zhao likes to be peaceful, his personality is very similar to Gu Min, and he has an extraordinary enthusiasm for his family and blood relatives.
Mr. Yuan Jing said, "You are really stubborn, even if it is death, you are not afraid?"
Liu Zhao shivered, her bright red lips became pale and dry.
"Naturally, I am not afraid."
The Liu Zhao in front of him seemed to coincide with the woman from more than ten years ago.
【Chun'an, whether you call me greedy or stupid, I want both fish and bear's paw! This daughter is my lifeblood,
I can not let it go! But I also don't want to change the good history because of me! I can't be this sinner! I'm sure I can find a way to have the best of both worlds—]
As a result, Gu Min lost his life for his "greed".
Betting everything didn't change a little bit.
Mr. Yuan Jing never knew how the other party died, but it was definitely not as simple as dying of illness.
For so many years, he did not suspect Liu She, after all, after Gu Min's death, this person went to Hujun far away, and experienced a near-death experience.
Now it seems --
All seem to be lurking deep.
Liu Zhao left Yuanjing Mansion full of disappointment, he put on the hood again to cover his face, and quietly walked out through the corner door.
He didn't dare to light a lamp, it would be bad if someone found his trace.
only--
He had just rounded the intersection when a slender black figure came into view, holding a long knife in his hand, which scared him out of his wits.
Jiang Pengji sneered, and sneered sullenly, "You're so timid, how dare you go out and jump around in the middle of the night?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Liu Zhao stiffened for a moment in his squatting posture with his head in his arms.
"Ah, sister—"
This time Liu Zhao was not only scared out of his wits, but almost forgot how to speak human.
"Go home. Although there is no curfew in the city, it is still not safe for you to go out alone."
Jiang Pengji held the Ares Knife in her left hand, with her right hand slightly akimbo, leaning against the wall, her upper body leaning forward a few degrees in the direction of Liu Zhao.
"Ah? Ah!"
Liu Zhao stood up with limp legs, and stared at the God of War Knife, afraid that the blade would kiss his neck in the next second.
The little daughter-in-law usually walked two steps behind her, and Liu Zhao looked up from time to time with her head down to look at Jiang Pengji's back.
"That... Sister—I don't have any bad intentions to find Mr. Yuan Jing——"
Jiang Pengji snorted, "I know, if you dare to reveal even the slightest bit of ambition, you should find me, sir."
Although Mr. Yuan Jing didn't make a clear statement, he was indeed on Jiang Pengji's side.
Because in this world, only Jiang Pengji can help Mr. Yuan Jing practice his "Tao", but Liu Zhao cannot. If Liu Zhao is really ambitious, if he can't come up with a bargaining chip more valuable than this, it is impossible for him to persuade Mr. Yuan Jing to defect, and he will even expose himself.
Jiang Pengji also believed that Liu Zhao would not do such a stupid thing.
"Sister." Liu Zhao remembered the words of Mr. Yuan Jing and his late mother Gu Min, took a deep breath, and asked, "I want to ask you something——"
Jiang Pengji laughed, "I refuse."
"Eh?" Liu Zhao choked for a moment, "Why? Elder Sister hasn't finished listening to my younger brother."
"I'm a very talkative person. As long as my life, dignity, and principles are not violated, everything is easy to discuss. On the contrary, there is no need to talk about it."
Liu Zhao stopped talking, and looked a bit sleepy.
Jiang Pengji put one hand on his head, and said with a smile, "Why are you so despondent? Come on, give me a smile."
Liu Zhao pulled out a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Don't think too much, maybe what you asked for may not turn out as bad as you imagined."
Jiang Pengji meant something.
