Silent Lover 2 (Tanhua) - Chap 52
Chapter 52
Among the plum groves, there are two people walking side by side, they are the number one scholar and the second place in the same class as Song Liqing, they are both noble sons from poor families, excluding Tanhua Song Liqing, the two are very close.
Zhuangyuan Lang, who is an official to the Minister of Rites, has a sad face today and has been moaning and sighing.
No. 2 smiled and said, “Master Shi Lang seems to be in a bad mood all day. Is it because it’s not yet the plum appreciation festival, and the scenery is not suitable, is it caused by disappointment?”
“I just came out to relax because I was upset.” The champion said after a pause, “I heard that the emperor intends to transfer me to the south to serve as a local magistrate.”
“Ah…” the second place flattered, “Then congratulations, my lord, congratulations to my lord!”
The number one scholar was dissatisfied and said: “The Zhizhou is from the fifth rank, and the minister of the Ministry of Rites is from the fifth rank. This is already demoted. Where does my joy come from?”
The second place smiled obsequiously.
“Uh, my lord, although the official position has been demoted, the southern mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the real power is in control. Isn’t it happy to be at ease? It’s not like being in the capital and looking at people’s faces.”
“That’s true, but you and I studied hard in the cold kiln. The picture is that today we have soared into the sky and took root in the capital, and now we are sent down to poor mountains and rivers. Isn’t it going back more and more?” The champion snorted displeasedly, “Your Majesty! I don’t know the plan? He is just to make room for that Song Liqing?”
The No. 2 followed the same enemy and said: “He is an abandoned soldier of the royal family, how can he be compared with you? His Royal Highness has already said that he is divorced. How can such a lowly person compete with you?”
“Shhh… Who told me to find a good father, be careful that the walls have ears…”
The No. 1 scholar stopped halfway through his speech, and his gaze fell to the plum tree not far away. The No. 2 scholar also saw a person lying there.
Taking a closer look, this person is prostrate on the ground, life or death is unknown, only there is a pool of blood in front of him, which has not yet dried up.
The second place was a little scared: “Yo, there won’t be a murder case in this place, right?”
The number one scholar had the courage to turn the “corpse” over, and the expressions of both of them changed at the same time.
“Song Liqing!!”
“Why did he die in this wilderness?” The second place exclaimed.
The number one scholar went to check Song Liqing’s breath.
“Not dead yet, the breath is weak.”
“Not dead?” The second place didn’t think much, “No wonder we just met the servants of the Song Mansion looking for someone everywhere. This place is remote, let’s inform them quickly and pick him up.”
The number one scholar turned his head quickly, and murmured: “We saved General Song’s son, with this favor, maybe I can hope to stay in the capital!”
“What your lord said is very true. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so I will go now.”
The No. 2 pick raised his leg to leave, but was suddenly stopped by No. 1 Scholar.
“etc!”
“What? According to Song Liqing’s appearance, it can’t be delayed for long.” The second place in the ranking said anxiously.
The number one scholar raised his hand to signal him to keep quiet, his eyes sank, revealing some gloomy light.
“Instead of entrusting favors to others, it is better to hold the opportunity in your own hands…” He made up his mind, “If Song Liqing disappears from this world, where will the emperor find him to replace me? I will never suffer any future troubles in the capital. Already!”
The heart of the runner-up jumped, and he was quite shocked.
“My lord, this, this, this… once the Dong Chuang incident happens, it will be beyond redemption!”
The champion resolutely said: “What are you afraid of? There are only you and me here, who would know? Song Liqing’s life and death are unknown, we just need to add fuel to the flames, and he died quietly!”
The second place was still terrified and timid.
“No, no, there are many servants of the Song Mansion in the forest, if you meet them…”
“In case we meet, don’t we just hand over Song Liqing to them to ask for credit?” The champion said angrily, “I’ve had enough. Song Liqing’s talent is obviously inferior to you and me, but he is in the limelight. With him on your side When will I have a bright future? Wealth and wealth are in danger! You just say that you are willing to help me? When the day goes by, I will definitely not forget you!”
The No. 2 star opened his eyes and weighed for a moment, before finally nodding his head heavily.
The second place on the list carried Song Liqing on his shoulders, and the number one scholar stood guard in front of him. He managed to avoid the people of the Song family and walked to a town more than ten miles away.
On the only way to the Western Regions, this town is a resting place for traveling merchants. There is a Yizhuang outside the town, where many dead and unclaimed corpses are temporarily stored.
The two avoided people, dragged Song Liqing into Yizhuang, and threw them away.
The second place still has lingering fears.
“We won’t be discovered, will we?”
“No one comes to this ghostly place. When someone finds him, he will have died of illness and only his bones are left! Besides, we didn’t kill anyone. We are clean. What are you afraid of?”
The two threw Song Liqing into a coffin and left hastily.
…
Jun Qiyu drank all night, his alcohol capacity was astonishing, he wanted to get drunk, so he slept for a day and a night in a daze.
His heart was empty, and if he hadn’t been drunk, he didn’t know how to get through this long night.
Otherwise, just close your eyes, Song Liqing will be spinning in front of his eyes, his cold appearance, gentle appearance, submissive appearance, and stubborn appearance become more and more clear.
Jun Qiyu didn’t even know when she fell in love with him. When Song Liqing was there, Jun Qiyu didn’t notice it, but after he left, Jun Qiyu realized his importance.
“Your Highness, aren’t you going to court today?” Xiao Di came to wake him up.
Jun Qiyu stared blankly at Fang Liang, he was lost in emptiness and didn’t want others to disturb him.
Xiaodi didn’t bother to care about him at first, he is the dignified prince of Jingguo, it’s not her turn to make irresponsible remarks, but looking at the sinking Jun Qiyu, she just felt that Song Liqing’s painstaking efforts were wrongly paid.
“Young Master said, I hope you will be a wise king in the future, do you want to live up to his entrustment?”
When Jun Qiyu heard it, her pupils gradually glowed.
“But everyone else is gone, he doesn’t want me anymore, so what if I do well?”
There was a tear hanging from the corner of Jun Qiyu’s eye, he closed it lightly, and wiped it down.
“He said…he wants to be with Pei Xingxu, he must be coaxing me, right? He just said that because he didn’t want me to pester him. I saw him take the initiative to hold someone’s hand, you know I have How uncomfortable? No, I won’t allow…”
Jun Qiyu sat up, put on her boots hastily, and went straight to the General’s Mansion regardless of her messy hair.
He decided that if Song Liqing did not forgive him for a day, he would not give up for a day.
It doesn’t matter whether he scolds himself or despises himself.
When Jun Qiyu arrived at the General’s Mansion, she found that there were not many people left in the General’s Mansion, only a guard was there, and people came in and out in a panic from time to time, as if something serious had happened.
Jun Qiyu grabbed the guard and asked, “Where are the people from the General’s Mansion?”
The guard recognized Jun Qiyu, so he said, “My son is missing.”
Jun Qiyu became anxious when she heard this.
“Not seen? How come? When did it happen?”
The guard replied: “I have been looking for a day. He said early in the morning that he was going to the suburbs to send Prince Loulan out of Beijing. At noon, someone came back and reported that he disappeared in the plum blossom forest on the outskirts of the city. There was only a pool of blood left. He disappeared. ”
“Blood……”
Jun Qiyu doesn’t dare to hear this word now, his illness is absolutely impossible to bleed again.
“He is inconvenient to move, so no one will follow?!” Jun Qiyu said anxiously and angrily.
“Young master said that he was walking in the depths of the Merlin with Prince Loulan, and asked people to wait outside first. After half an hour, he was nowhere to be found. The general sent everyone to search for ten miles around, but they couldn’t find them.”
There was a thunder in Jun Qiyu’s mind.
He immediately left the others, stepped on his horse, swung his whip and rushed to the plum blossom forest in the outskirts.
Jun Qiyu thought a lot along the way, where could Song Liqing go? He is blind now, maybe he lost his way in the plum blossom forest. But with that pool of blood, did he get hurt, or did he encounter other dangers? The more Jun Qiyu thought about it, the worse it became. No matter what the situation was, Song Liqing couldn’t face it alone!
And Jun Qiyu couldn’t bear the consequences.
When Jun Qiyu saw the mottled blood under the forest, her mind, which had finally calmed down, was still in a mess.
The little bloodstains looked like bright red wintersweet.
“Mr. Li…”
Jun Qiyu only felt that her knees were weak, and she couldn’t stand up for a while, so she knelt down.
He couldn’t look directly at the blood in front of his eyes, it hurt his eyes and made his heart feel like a knife.
Song Qing had been searching for the plum blossom forest all day, his eyes were bloodshot, and when he saw Jun Qiyu kneeling on the ground, he chose to ignore it.
But Jun Qiyu immediately stepped forward and asked in a panicked voice: “General Song! Did you… find him?”
Song Qing was silent.
Of course it was not found.
“Where can he go…he can’t go too far alone, unless he is in danger. Could it be that he followed Pei Xingxu to the Western Regions?”
At this time, Jun Qiyu would rather he went to the Western Regions than encounter other accidents.
“Impossible!” Song Qing quickly denied him, “With Liqing’s character, he would always tell me when he goes out, so it is impossible for him to leave everything behind and walk away!”
“Then where can he go? Will he go back to the city by himself? Or someone took him away, there is no one else here…”
After Jun Qiyu said so, Song Qing thought of it.
“According to his servants, there are not many people going in and out of the forest, only two servants from the Ministry of Rites.”
“Minister of the Ministry of Rites…” Jun Qiyu tried hard to recall, “He and Li Qing are the first-ranked scholars, it seems that they don’t want to see Li Qing… I will go find them!”
Jun Qiyu was unwilling to let go of any clues.
The number one scholar was in his mansion. He saw that Song Qing dispatched a lot of troops outside, and searched in the capital, and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.
“It’s hard to find where he hid… Even if he finds it, Song Liqing is so angry that he probably won’t be able to save him, right?”
bang bang bang!
The knock on the door startled him, but it was an unexpected guest.
As soon as Jun Qiyu came in, she drew out her knife and put it on the champion’s neck.
“You only have one chance to live, where is Song Liqing?”
Jun Qiyu’s face was as cold as frost, and the champion just met his eyes like a light on his back.
He has no doubt that as long as he shows his flaws, Jun Qiyu will definitely let his head be separated!
Originally, he thought that if someone came to the door, he could find an excuse to cover it up, but when Jun Qiyu came in, his mother-in-law and mother-in-law didn’t give him a chance to argue.
He didn’t know how many things Jun Qiyu knew, so he didn’t dare to make up random things.
“His Royal Highness… I said, if you don’t come to see me, I plan to see you too. I went to the Plum Blossom Forest on the outskirts of the city to relax today. I happened to meet the Crown Princess who was seeing off Prince Loulan, er, Mr. Song. Reluctant to let go, but didn’t want to vomit a mouthful of blood immediately, Pei Xingxu hugged him and cried for a long time, saying that he was really worried about taking Mr. Song away, and Mr. Song agreed to get on Pei Xingxu’s horse somehow, what I said The sentence is true!”
The number one scholar spoke fluently. He was the Minister of Rites, so he could easily find out that Pei Xingxu returned to Loulan today, so he thought up all the excuses early on. It was difficult to tell the truth from the false.
Even Jun Qiyu can only believe it, and he has been hit hard at this time, how can he have the heart to distinguish whether what he said is true or not?
“He really left, he still left with Pei Xingxu!”
Jun Qiyu gripped the knife hard, and the champion was so frightened that his two legs fought.
But Jun Qiyu finally took the knife back.
He rode on his bloody horse, went out of the city gate, and headed northwest.
“Liqing… I will not allow you to leave me, let alone Loulan in the Western Regions, even the ends of the earth, I will find you back!”
Under the moonlight, people and horses galloped alone on the official road, passing the nearest town to the capital, Jun Qiyu stayed in a Yizhuang for a while, he opened the door, took some fodder and well water from it, and fed it to The horse eats.
Jun Qiyu glanced at the coffins lined up, and decided to continue on her way, day and night to chase Song Liqing back.
