One Piece: BABY5's Love in the World
Chapter 122 The Cunning One in the Dark
After the troops of Qin State were completely settled, it was already dinner time. Because the emperor and ministers of Qin State were all arranged in the general's palace in the city, Liu Kechun and others held a banquet in the general's palace.
It happened that all the ministers of Qin State were present at this banquet, but the emperor and general Ji Yue of Qin State were nowhere to be seen. Later, Xiao Lingzi sent a young eunuch to inform those present that the emperor and general had something to discuss, so they Not coming here for dinner anymore, Liu Kechun and others awkwardly greeted Wang Jixian and his group to have dinner.
"His Majesty the Qin Emperor seems to have a close relationship with the general in the northwest?"
While they were eating, Ji Mucang suddenly raised his wine glass and laughed inexplicably, causing everyone to pause in their toasting. Liu Kechun and Gong Lingyou also looked at Wang Jixian and the others with unclear expressions.
Wang Jixian smiled tepidly and said: "General Ji has extraordinary abilities. Such a rare and handsome man with both wisdom and courage, the emperor will naturally cherish his talent."
Duke Ping's eyes turned and fell on Gong Lingyou, and he smiled slowly: "I heard that Mr. Gong was a counselor in the fifth prince's house before, and he was very knowledgeable. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, Mr. Gong's status has also risen sharply. It shows that the emperor of your country is also a man who cherishes talents very much."
Gong Lingyou raised his wine glass and saluted Mr. Ping Guo, and smiled slowly: "Thank you, Mr. Ping Guo."
Liu Kechun and Ji Mucang secretly looked at the old foxes in front of them, and the corners of their eyes twitched.
Next, he inquired more diligently about the relationship between Emperor Qin and Ji Yue, and occasionally sow discord. After all, who in the world didn't know that the three-party rule of the Qin State was turned upside down by the young emperor who had just taken charge, taking away the royal family's rights in the imperial city? Military power, Liu Kechun and others are happy to do this to add fuel to the fire.
While the ministers of the two countries were scheming and plotting secretly, the emperor and the general who were the subjects of the discussion were slowly eating dinner in a quiet courtyard like ordinary people.
Even though this was not the first time I saw such a warm and ordinary scene, the little Lingzi who was watching not far away could not help but feel sorry for her when she saw her Majesty putting some of the Queen's favorite dishes into her bowl from time to time. This warm and loving picture is touching.
He has been with His Majesty for so long, and no one knows better than him what a terrifying and horrifying person His Majesty is. But such a terrifying Majesty can actually do this for a woman. It really makes people unable to even have the energy to be shocked and horrified.
After the meal, Qin Lanxue led Ji Junyue and walked slowly in the huge yard. The gentle breeze blew up their robes, and the lingering corners of their clothes outlined an extremely beautiful picture.
The faint fragrance of flowers in the courtyard makes this space seem more peaceful and warm.
Ji Junyue slowly expressed her thoughts: "Gong Lingyou can be used. If we can win him over, it will be easier to occupy the land of Yan Kingdom."
Qin Lanxue held Ji Junyue's white and tender hand, and the warmth transmitted between the interlocking fingers made him flow abnormally. She tightened her fingers unconsciously, and did not forget to reply.
"Ajun knows Gong Lingyou's identity?"
This Gong Lingyou is not a simple person. He is a fierce general in Ji Yixia's hands. He is knowledgeable and well-informed, and has met many people in the world.
Moreover, few people know that he is also a person who is quite innovative in the art of weapon mechanisms. If anyone in Jiuyou Continent can say that he makes the best weapons mechanisms, it must be Gong Lingyou.
At first, it was because Gong Lingyou was one of the counselors behind Ji Yixia and was highly valued by Ji Yixia that he went to check on Gong Lingyou. However, although he found that Gong Lingyou's identity was suspicious, he only kept his guesses. , and has not been truly implemented.
Because he was too lazy to spend time, but now that Ajun mentioned it, he was naturally willing to listen.
Ji Junyue felt the cold fingertips wrapped around her hand tighten, and responded by holding Qin Lanxue's hand tightly, leaving no gap between the two palms, and slowly spoke about Gong Lingyou's identity.
"When I checked the people around Ji Yixia, I found that Gong Lingyou was not only knowledgeable and talented, but also had extremely good weapons and mechanism skills, far surpassing the mechanism technology mastered by the Xiliang Kingdom. This suddenly reminded me of the time when the Xiliang Kingdom was famous in Jiuyou. The palace family."
"The Gong family is famous in Jiuyou for its manufacturing of weapons and mechanisms, and has become the largest family in the Xiliang Kingdom. It's a pity that they were wiped out overnight fifteen years ago. Since then, the inventions of manufacturing weapons and mechanisms have also disappeared."
"Gong Lingyou is twenty-three this year. Fifteen years ago, he was only an eight-year-old child. On the surface, he is an orphan after the flood in Yanling County, Laizhou, Yan State, but in fact he was the only living member of the Gong family back then."
"When I was eighteen years old, I joined Ji Yixia. In the past five years, I have secretly plotted against the Xiliang royal family many times. The originally prosperous Xiliang royal family only had four princes left. If the Xiliang Kingdom had not secretly attached itself to Yan The country, with Ji Yixia holding it back, I am afraid that the four princes will not be able to be saved, so it is self-evident what Gong Lingyou’s purpose is.”
Qin Lanxue was not surprised when he heard this. He just confirmed what he was thinking. He had made some guesses before and suspected that Gong Lingyou was actually the orphan of the Gong family. Now after hearing Ji Junyue's words, he was completely sure. .
"The massacre of the Gong family back then was all planned by the Xiliang royal family. Since Gong Lingyou lost seven or eight princes of the Xiliang royal family, it is enough to show that he knows the truth about the Gong family's annihilation. It can be seen from his methods that he The hatred in my heart is deep, I am afraid that I want the entire Xiliang royal family to pay for the lives of the Gong family."
"Although Ji Yixia will give Gong Lingyou a chance to take revenge, she must wait until the last role of the Xiliang Kingdom is exhausted. If Ajun uses the time for revenge as a bargaining chip, Gong Lingyou should be tempted."
It will take at least several years for Ji Yixia to unify Jiuyou, not to mention that without the two big killers Ji Junyue and Qin Lanxue, Gong Lingyou had to wait because of Ji Yixia's wrist ability.
If someone suddenly appeared who could make Gong Lingyou bloodbath the Xiliang royal family in the shortest time, Gong Lingyou, who was burdened with blood and hatred, would definitely be moved.
It was with this in mind that Ji Junyue tried to win over Gong Lingyou.
The two people walking slowly suddenly looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding. Those two bright smiles like night-blooming cereus instantly made the already quiet courtyard even more beautiful, like a fairyland.
Early the next morning, everyone did not waste any time and set out again. Because they were taking the official road, Liu Kechun had already planned every stop in advance. After setting off from Sanhuiguan, everyone was at the same place after a day's journey. The county town rested for a day and then moved on.
In the evening three days later, we stationed ourselves a hundred miles outside Jinxi City. According to the current itinerary, we should arrive at the Imperial City of Yan in ten days at most.
Because they were setting up camp, Ji Junyue and Qin Lanxue were naturally not as careless as they were in an independent yard, so after they finished eating, Qin Lanxue was in his tent, while Ji Junyue walked out of the tent. A walk by the creek in the distance.
Just after she walked out of everyone's sight, she saw a figure standing by the stream, looking into the distance with unclear expression. It wasn't until she heard her approaching footsteps that she turned her head and looked over.
Gong Lingyou's expression paused slightly when she saw the person approaching. She didn't expect to meet this handsome and seemingly harmless young man here alone.
Ji Junyue looked at Gong Lingyou and raised the corners of her lips: "Master Gong is looking into the distance, is he missing his relatives?"
When Gong Lingyou heard this, his expression became calm, he withdrew his gaze, looked at the dark night in the distance again, and said calmly.
"It seems that General Ji knows me well. My family suffered a disaster when I was a child. Now I no longer remember my parents. I can only occasionally look up into the distance to express my thoughts. I think General Ji can understand this feeling."
This is a hint to Ji Junyue that he and Gong Lingyou also know her past very well. They are both orphans without relatives. They have experienced similar experiences in such a lonely life.
This is probably the reason why he opened his mouth to tell Ji Yue these things. If it were anyone else, he would definitely not say so many words. Although the words have the potential of game, there is also a feeling of sympathy.
Ji Junyue naturally understands Gong Lingyou's words. After all, she is Ji Yue now, and Ji Yue's identity. Anyone who pays attention to the situation in the Qin Kingdom must know Ji Yue's life experience, an illegitimate child who was raised outside the house. , an orphan of a governor, a poor man who had his whole family wiped out by the barbarians.
"Of course, the pain of losing a loved one and the thought of carrying a blood feud. Do you know why I work so hard to become the commander-in-chief of the northwest?"
Hearing such a sexy and magnetic question, Gong Lingyou, who was looking in the distance, finally turned his head and laid his eyes on Ji Junyue again. There seemed to be an undercurrent in his eyes, which was caused by Ji Junyue. The emotions affected by Yue's words "bearing a blood feud".
Gong Lingyou looked at the young man in front of him who looked calm and even had a smile on his lips: "Do you want revenge?"
"Of course." Ji Junyue looked at Gong Lingyou and raised her eyebrows with a smile: "Sooner or later, I, Ji Yue, will lead a cavalry to defeat the Guishuang Kingdom, string together the heads of the royal family members of the Guishuang Kingdom, and become A unique 'lighthouse' on the land of Kushan for all barbarians to see."
Perhaps the expression of the young man in front of him was too carefree, and his eyebrows were too arrogant, which actually made Gong Lingyou look in a trance, and a longing picture appeared in front of him, which was his own picture.
"The Guishan Kingdom is currently fighting fiercely with the Western Huns, and the situation in the Qin Kingdom is also unstable. It is impossible for you to send troops outside the Great Wall. If you want to take revenge, you will have to wait for a long, long time..."
Gong Lingyou murmured to himself, his voice was very soft, and he didn't know whether he was talking to Ji Yue or to himself.
Listening to Gong Lingyou's almost whispering voice, Ji Junyue's eyes flashed with deep meaning: "If Master Gong can be avenged within a year, will Master Gong choose to abandon your master?"
Gong Lingyou, who was in a trance, suddenly heard these words. His sensitive eyes sharpened and he stared at Ji Junyue tensely: "What do you mean?"
Although her voice was still calm, it was a little less indifferent and a little more cold. It was obvious that Ji Junyue's words touched a certain nerve in Gong Lingyou.
Seeing Gong Lingyou with such a tense body and alert and sharp eyes, Ji Junyue not only was not frightened by his sharp eyes, but instead smiled jokingly.
"Is Mr. Gong too nervous? I just want to ask what choice Mr. Gong would make if he were in such a situation."
After Gong Lingyou heard this, she did not relax her vigilance because of the joking words and joking demeanor of the young man in front of her. Instead, she became more and more cautious. She stared at the young man's cute smile for a moment, and the depths of her eyes were full of scrutiny and care. Suspicion.
How could such a person be so harmless that he could subdue a group of veterans from the northwest and become a first-class general in just half a year? When he first met Ji Yue, he knew that this person looked like an incompetent nobleman. He looks like a young master, but in fact, the more someone is inconsistent with his identity, the more dangerous he is.
Now Ji Yue was not affected by his sharp gaze at all. Instead, she smiled and joked with him. Even if the joke she made was so sensitive, the evil look in her eyes at close range was so unpredictable that it was shocking. Heart is dangerous.
Such a person would make such a sensitive joke with him for no reason? !
Ji Junyue smiled faintly, not caring at all about Gong Lingyou's scrutinizing and suspicious eyes, and left a meaningful sentence: "Master Gong, you only have one chance. If it were me, I would definitely choose to avenge the bloody sea first. If Gong Linyou... Sir, if you have the answer, please remember to find it below, and we can discuss it together."
Gong Lingyou looked at the young man's leaving figure. The figure hidden in the moonlight had an innate nobility and elegance, and his extraordinary temperament was truly shocking and unforgettable.
Such a person doesn't belong in the pool at first glance, so how could he be joking with him casually?
Gong Lingyou narrowed his eyes slightly. The sparkling lake surface reflected his eyes as sharply as a sword, as deep as the sea, and as thick as night.
