Lu Ting smiled and said: "How could I not know? It is because I admire General Qing that I managed to enter the Jingzhao Yin Mansion. The General guards the border, and I protect the people. In essence, they are all the same." of."
Qing Lingyi's willow eyebrows curved, revealing a friendly look.
Cheng Yang was extremely displeased and sarcastically said: "When you became an official, you thought the official uniform was cool, so you tried every means to get into the Jingzhao Yin Mansion. The reason was that you could seduce a few girls by going out to handle cases. Protect the people? Who are you kidding?"
Qing ordered Yi to have a meal.
Lu Ting touched his nose and laughed twice: "Haha, General Cheng just loves to joke, haha."
"Not only does he like to joke, but he also likes to beat and kill people." Cheng Yang sneered, and his threats were very clear.
“……”
Lu Ting straightened his face and cleared his throat, "What about that, Mrs. Cheng, since everything is fine here, it's time for me to leave."
"Master Lu, why don't you stay and have dinner together." Qing Lingyi smiled slightly and invited politely.
"He has something important to do and has to leave soon." Cheng Yang said.
Lu Ting was puzzled: "What do I have..."
Cheng Yang looked sideways, his eyes dangerous, "Isn't it, Mr. Lu?"
Lu Ting immediately became serious, "Yes, I still have a lot of things to do, so I have to go."
Cheng Yang said indifferently: "I won't send it away."
"...Farewell."
After Lu Ting left, Cheng Yang dismissed the servants again and walked to sit next to Qing Lingyi.
Qing Lingyi stood up to leave, and he ordered in a cold voice: "Sit down."
Qing Lingyi had no choice but to sit back and wanted to explain: "I looked at you like that just now..."
Cheng Yang picked up the cups on the table.
Qing Lingyi was surprised: "This is mine!"
Cheng Yang took a big sip and said deliberately: "I've kissed you so many times, how can I tell you what's yours and what's mine?"
Qing Lingyi choked and her face felt a little hot.
"What's wrong with the way you looked at me just now?" Cheng Yang asked.
"...That look doesn't mean anything in particular. I hope the general won't misunderstand it."
Cheng Yang was not very happy. He stressed many times and asked her to call her husband, and he would turn back into a general without reminding her once.
"Also," Qing Lingyi took courage, "General, were you the ones who killed Zhao Wanrong and Hongxiu?"
Cheng Yang sneered.
I knew she was going to ask this.
When he heard Biwei's message that he wanted Jingzhao Shaoyin to come to Yanshan Residence, he more or less guessed her intention.
If you don’t believe him, you must find out.
Then he asked her to find out.
"Hongxiu committed suicide, but I killed Zhao Wanrong," Cheng Yang raised the corners of his lips, "So did Jiao Er."
He stared at her and asked calmly: "So, what are you going to do?"
Qing Lingyi pursed her lips: "I don't plan to do anything."
"Won't you tell the officials to arrest me?" Cheng Yang teased.
"No."
"Then why are you so stubborn and insist on knowing the truth? Isn't the story I made up very realistic?"
"How should I put it," Qing Lingyi thought, "I can understand that the general made up such a story because he probably thinks that I am young and always cry. I heard that the general would be afraid of killing people."
Cheng Yang didn't say anything, so he acquiesced.
"But in a high position, there are treacherous things, overt and covert fights, life and death. I understand all this and have seen it before," Qing Lingyi said sincerely, with a serious look, "so general, you don't need to hide it from me, let alone lie to me. Don't do it in the future. Never again."
Cheng Yang turned his head and stared at her for a long time.
His eyes deepened, but there was no tenderness in them, instead there was a hint of suspicion.
He whispered slowly and asked, "Who taught you this?"
Qing Lingyi suddenly looked up at him.
Cheng Yang could read the humiliation and sullenness in her eyes. He didn't fully see it clearly, so she lowered her eyes again.
After seeming to calm down for a while, Qing Lingyi stood up.
After taking two steps toward the door, she stopped and said without holding back: "This is what I want to say myself, whether the general believes it or not. But I won't say it again in the future."
After saying that, she walked out without looking back.
Cheng Yang frowned, was he angry?
These years of swords, blood, shadows, and intrigues have long since wiped away all his trust and warmth in people.
He only saw her as a source of entertainment.
So what if he is angry, will he care?
impossible.
After finishing his affairs in the evening, Cheng Yang returned to the bedroom and looked at the big bed first.
Cheng Anle's little pillow is not there.
Very good, Qing Lingyi is his tonight.
Bedding and soft pillows were neatly stacked on the pear bed. He didn't realize anything was wrong and walked to the bathroom leisurely.
Just as he put his hand into the water, he suddenly raised his eyebrows.
No, where is Qing Lingyi?
Cheng Anle's little pillow is gone, and so is she!
Cheng Yang strode out: "Wu..."
Thinking of something, he changed his tone and said, "Ji Fanzhi!"
The footsteps quickly approached, but it was not Ji Fanzhi, but Wu Liang.
"General, Fanzhi is at Madam's side, providing full-time protection according to your instructions."
"Where is Madam?" Cheng Yang said in a bad tone.
"Madam is in the small courtyard next door. She said she would sleep with Miss Anle tonight."
Cheng Yang's face suddenly sank.
After a moment of silence, Wu Liang asked cautiously: "General, do you want to call your wife back?"
"What's it called?" Cheng Yang said angrily, "She can sleep wherever she likes, don't worry about her!"
"……yes."
Wu Liang stole a glance at Cheng Yang.
It's been a long time since I've seen the general so angry. Last time I heard that Madam was going to see Jiang Yizhou.
But it was different from this time. That time the general was murderous, but now he was furious.
He stood up with a dark face and strode into the bathroom.
Maybe he wanted to wash up, but there was a "clang" and something hit the ground.
There was another "bang", and something was kicked to pieces.
Like venting anger.
And this anger is not small.
After a while, the bathroom finally calmed down.
Cheng Yang walked out expressionlessly, his clothes were stained with water drops, and his eyes were cold.
Wu Liang looked at him worriedly.
Cheng Yang glanced over.
Wu Liang was about to speak.
Cheng Yang picked up a chair and threw it over.
Wu Liang was shocked and ran away in panic, watching helplessly as the official hat chair fell to pieces.
"Get out!" Cheng Yang roared.
Wu Liang quickly walked out of the house and closed the door.
His heart was beating wildly. He had not seen such a general for many years.
He was a teenager when he first got married. Cheng Yang was still a young general, with bright clothes and angry horses. He was high-spirited, generous and open-minded, humble and benevolent. Everyone in the army supported him and followed him to the death.
Wu Liang is also one of them.
But later, the married generals died in battle one after another.
Cheng Yang's father, uncle, and eldest brother.
Let’s go back to the great changes in the West five years ago.
At that time, Wu Liang had not yet become a deputy general, and Cheng Yang's deputy general at that time was named Jia Meng.
Jia Meng and Cheng Yang have a very good relationship. They trust each other and are as close as brothers.
However, Jamon rebelled and, along with dozens of other members of his army, defected after the war.
When reinforcements arrived, there were corpses everywhere.
Many people died, including Wang Zheng and Cheng Yu, Cheng Yang's second brother.
Among the piles of corpses, they found Cheng Yang who was still breathing.
He was the only one who survived. He did not tell many details, except for one: "Jia Meng's original surname is Jiang, and he is Jiang Zhao's distant nephew."
