Chapter 123 Conditions (2)
The more Nangong Xin listened, the more interesting it became, and she couldn't wait to say, "I want to eat barbecue! I have to choose it myself!" After speaking, he got up and left his seat, and went downstairs with Xiao Er.
"Brother Xin, slow down!" Lin hurriedly chased after him, and the maids also hurriedly followed. After a while, Nangong Yue and Yi Mei were left in the elegant seat.
"Three girls, drink some hot tea." Yimei took out Nangongyue's own tea set, poured half a cup of hot tea into the teacup, and served it.
Nangong Yue had just held the cup when she heard a knock on the door outside the seat.
"Who is...?" Before Yi Mei's voice could finish, she saw the door of the seat was gently pushed open, and walked into a young man in blue with a sallow complexion in his twenties, followed by a young boy in gray. servant.
The young man is thin and his appearance is very ordinary and unfamiliar. Nangong Yue can be sure that she is seeing this face for the first time, but... She brows slightly, and before she speaks, Yi Mei has already whispered: "You You... it's you!" She was referring not to the youth, but to the servant behind the youth.
"Three girls, he... he..." Under the panic, Yimei seemed to stutter a little.
Nangong Yue nodded and said, "I know. Yimei, you go outside and watch."
Yimei hesitated for a while, but still bowed her head and retreated to the outside of the elegant seat.
"If I guessed correctly, you are Mr. Bai, right?" Nangong Yue said calmly. That's right, this young man is the official Yubai who once had a relationship with Yu Nangong Yue. Although he changed his appearance with the technique of disguise at the moment, he was poisoned with poison, and his eyes were like torches that were about to go out. Looking at the dazzling light now, but in fact, the oil has run out, so Nangong Yue recognized his eyes at a glance. Moreover, his breathing is also different from ordinary people. It is fast at one time and soothing at other times, quite irregular, as if suffering from a serious heart disease...
And of course his little servant is the master who robbed the prisoner that day! On the night that Yimei came back from Jiang Guogong's mansion, she had seen this little servant named Xiaosi, so she only showed her performance just now.
"Miss Nangong is really smart..." The young man, Guan Yubai, said indifferently, his weak voice showed that he was still extremely weak at the moment, "The letter I sent to the girl, the girl has not responded, so I This is the only way to disturb the girl."
A few days ago, on Nangongyue's way back from Duke Enguo's mansion, Guan Yubai asked his servant to stuff a note for Yimei to pass on to him. On the note, Guan Yubai proposed to make a deal with him...
Nangong Yue's face sank slightly. With Guan Yubai's ingenuity, he should understand that if she didn't reply to the letter, it was a silent rejection, but he didn't want him to find her personally in this way. All of this today seems so coincidental, he must have carefully arranged it. In other words, after he knew that he would go to the manor on the outskirts of the city, he quickly took control of the inn, and also specially investigated his brother, and deliberately used the tempting food scent to urge them to stop the carriage naturally... This man has a heart. The depth is the kind of person she finds the most annoying! Dealing with this kind of person requires every step and effort, so after receiving the note from him, she pondered the pros and cons, and decided to respect this person and stay away!
"Now that Jin Yiwei is arresting you everywhere, how dare you show up..." Nangong Yue said in a low voice.
Guan Yubai smiled slightly, and there was a hint of dazzling elegance on his ordinary appearance... I don't know what means he used to change his appearance. His smile looked extremely natural, not stiff at all.
"Who knows what I look like now?" He smiled bitterly, followed with a straight face, and coughed lightly, "I know the worries in the girl's heart, and this face does have someone else... My current surname is Rong Dan's name is Xuan, can you rest assured, girl?"
Nangong Yue still didn't answer directly, how could she be relieved? No matter how majestic and powerful this Guan Yubai will be in ten years, but now he is a convict arrested by the imperial court. Once someone finds out that he has a relationship with him, not only herself, but also her family. meeting……
Nangong Yue pondered for a moment, then said slowly with a nonsense answer: "When I was young, my grandfather told me a story about frogs and scorpions: the scorpion wanted to cross the river, and it asked the kind frog for help. The frog said, "You Poisonous, what if you sting me? The scorpion said, I stung you, and I will sink to the bottom of the river. The kind frog thought it made sense, so he carried the scorpion across the river. When he swam to the middle of the river, the scorpion was still Sting the frog. At the moment when it sank to the bottom of the river, the frog asked the scorpion, why do you still sting me when you knew it would sink to the bottom of the river? The scorpion said slowly, because this is my nature."
Although she didn't say it clearly, it was clear that the frog she was referring to was herself, and the scorpion was of course Guan Yubai, or in other words, the man who now calls himself Rong Xuan.
Guan Yubai hadn't spoken yet, but the little servant, Xiao Si, couldn't hold back, and a chill appeared in his eyes, "How dare you say that the son..." Guan Yubai raised his hand and motioned for Xiao Si to keep silent.
Guan Yubai's expression remained unchanged, and even his breath was not affected. He smiled and said lightly: "The girl is really smart, this little story is really thought-provoking. In this way, Rong has also heard a little story about scorpions. A traveler saw a scorpion fall into the water and turn around. He even went to fish it, but the scorpion stung him as soon as his hand touched the scorpion. But the man still wanted to fish it, he reached out again to try to get the scorpion out of the water, but the scorpion stung him again A man next to him said to him: 'It keeps stinging you so much, why do you save it?' The traveler said: 'It is the nature of scorpions to sting people, but I need scorpion venom to save my life, how can it be because of scorpions? What about giving up my life after stinging someone?'"
Nangong Yue looked at him steadily, Guan Yubai was really smart, based on the only meeting and the little information he could find about her, he saw through her, and knew that she was not an ordinary boudoir girl. She has a plan and knows that she is trapped in the inner house and needs external help urgently... So he put forward a condition that she can't refuse: she will help him treat the poison, and he will serve her for five years!
She still remembered that Han Lingfu once said in her previous life that if you want to make huge profits, you must bear corresponding huge risks. Although she hated him very much, she had to admit that he was right.
