Ten Ways Not Having a Cheats Leads to Flooding

The palace is far less lively than Sitian Pavilion, Lian Cha goes crazy from time to time, everyone in the palace is in danger and keeps silent like cicadas.

Fortunately, Dugu Qi walked by the side door, so he couldn't meet Lian Cha.

These days, Shi'an Palace is a bit sparser than before he left, Ruan Mingzheng's health is getting better, and Lian Cha no longer let the maid guard Shi'an Palace guard it, so when Dugu Qi came back, there was not even a gatekeeper in Shi'an Palace.

Because Ruan Mingzheng couldn't see the wind, she stayed in the dormitory all year round, and Dugu Qi left the package and went to find her.

No one communicated outside. When he entered, Ruan Mingzheng was taking a nap with unfinished clothes in his hand.The material is good, it seems that it is newly sent by the palace.

Dugu Qi walked in lightly, moved a small stool and sat on the head of Ruan Mingzheng's bed.

Ruan Mingzheng is only 30 years old, and there are already a lot of gray hairs on the temples. Dugu Qi stretched out his hands to put those white hairs into the black hair, but the white hairs fell out soon.

The corners of his eyes drooped, and his hand stopped by Ruan Mingzheng's ear.

As Ruan Mingzheng's only child, he understands Ruan Mingzheng's difficulties very well. He still remembers the ugly expression of his father and the panicked look on the face of his mother and concubine when the envoy of the Lian Kingdom announced that he was a disaster star in public. expression.

Ruan Mingzheng used to be the lord of the first palace, but now he is just a low-ranking concubine, and he is no longer the most beloved child of his father.

After all, it was what Teng Luo said about destiny, he should have hated it, but after getting along these days, he didn't feel so hateful.

The pillow was tilted, and the bottle stuffed with the red bandage fell out. Dugu Qi was startled, and swiped his hand to receive the bottle, looking up at Ruan Mingzheng's open eyes.

"Ah Qi is back."

Dugu Qi stood up and saluted, "Yes, mother."

Ruan Mingzheng supported her body and leaned against the head of the bed, letting Dugu Qi sit beside her.

"Is it okay these days? Teng... the national teacher didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"It's all good, even the injury is healed, the national teacher is very good to me, and even taught me personally."

Having said that, Ruan Mingzheng still couldn't help worrying in her eyes.

"If he deliberately torments you, just remember to run away, don't worry mother, even if you run away, they can't do anything to you."

Dugu Qi couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Mother, you think too much, the national teacher has nothing to do, if you really want to deliberately torment me, just leave me in the palace, why bother."

Ruan Mingzheng looked at him disapprovingly, touched his head and said earnestly: "This is because you are not deeply involved in the world, and you don't know the dangers of the world. How can you tell who is sincere and who is fake? You have to remember, this Only a mother in this world will treat you wholeheartedly, and others will treat you well, and there will always be something they want from you."

Dugu Qi lowered his head, not daring to meet her gaze.

Seeing his smile like this, Ruan Mingzheng suddenly restrained himself, and grabbed his hand to move the bottle to him.

"There will be sacrifices the day after tomorrow. You can take this thing with you when you go back, and you can add it to Teng Luo's cup when you have a chance."

Dugu Qi didn't realize it at first, he trembled when he looked carefully, stood up and took two steps back, looked down at the bottle in his hand, and quickly stuffed the bottle back into Ruan Mingzheng's hand.

"Mom, what are you?"

Ruan Mingzheng's eyes showed a chilling coldness, "Don't worry, it's not some kind of immediate death medicine, you won't be suspected."

She fanned her eyelashes lightly, leaving a shadow on her lower eyelid.

"Mother knows that your heart is pure, but you have to understand that with him for a day, we will always be disaster stars in the eyes of others."

"However, even if we kill Teng Luo now, it will be of no use. If he dies, we will never be able to go back." Dugu Qi approached her slowly, knelt down beside her, and held her hand, Tighten slowly, and said in a very low voice, "Mom, I know you are angry. If you stay here for a day, you will feel uncomfortable for a day. I will never forget it, but killing people is not the way. I... I can't go down." hand."

Ruan Mingzheng looked at him sideways, his eyes piercing Dugu Qi's body like a knife, "Do you know what you look like now? Like those who believe in the executioner but don't know it, they don't cry when they see the coffin."

Dugu Qi pursed his lips, unable to speak, Ruan Mingzheng might be right, Teng Luo was his enemy since three years ago, but seeing him now, there is no such deep hatred, even his He himself felt that he was abnormal, maybe he couldn't understand Ruan Mingzheng's unforgettable hatred because he didn't read everything about human affairs like Ruan Mingzheng.

To him, Teng Luo was just a contradictory person who once said he was a disaster star, but now he is helping him everywhere.

Just like what Ruan Mingzheng said, someone who has nothing to do with him treats him inexplicably, there must be something for him, and he understands it, but he is willing, and he also has what he wants.

He didn't say anything more, patted Ruan Mingzheng's hand and walked out. He took his package and walked on the bluestone slabs of the palace in a daze. Stopped him, he showed the token of the national teacher before he was released.

He walked on the road in a daze, not knowing where he was going.The sun was about to set, and the bustling hawkers on both sides of the street closed their stalls one after another, and the guise of flower houses was hung up, showing off under the dark yellow sky.

After all, he is a child, he has the confusion of this age, he knows what he wants, and he knows what he should do, but facing his mother, all these determinations will be broken.

He lowered his head and flicked his shoes, scratching harshly on the dusty ground, and he didn't notice the crowd passing by him at all.

When the last twilight disappeared, Dugu Qi sat on the teeth by the side of the road, propped his head with his hands, and stared blankly ahead.

Because of the sacrifice, the curfew will begin in two hours. The surrounding small shops are closed, and the stalls are closed. Passers-by are sparsely rushing home.

Dugu Qi was also picked up by them, seeing that his clothes belonged to Si Tiange, they didn't make things difficult for him, they just asked him why he was outside.

Dugu Qi hesitated and couldn't explain why, so a few soldiers told him to go back quickly. If he was caught under the curfew, he would be punished.

Seeing that the street was getting darker, Dugu Qi grabbed the package on his arm and walked down the street in a daze.

Xu Shi really had nowhere to go, a circle of trees gradually appeared in front of him, Dugu Qi's chaotic nerves finally regained consciousness, and he came to Sitian Pavilion.

Sitian Pavilion was also very quiet, only the row after row of candle lights in the house showed that someone was there.

Not knowing what Teng Luo was doing now, Dugu Qi stood silently at the door of Sitian Pavilion, and couldn't help thinking this way.

Dugu Qi stood for a while, but felt that his legs were numb, so he shook his head and prepared to go back to the palace.

As soon as he lifted his foot, there was a questioning voice behind him.

"Dugu Qi?"

The voice was a little old, and Dugu Qi remembered that it was the servant beside Teng Luo. He turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in brown clothes lighting up the area in front of the door with a lantern.

"Bo Yin, it's me."

"Your Excellency just came to inspect, and when you heard the voice, you asked me to come out to have a look. I didn't expect it to be you. Didn't Your Excellency tell you to go back and have a look? Why are you back?"

"I……"

"Okay, okay, let's talk if you have something to say." Yin Bo waved to him, and opened the door for him.

Dugu Qi saw the man's bluish-white back going towards Ding Pavilion, squeezed his sweaty palms, and followed Yin Bo into Sitian Pavilion.

Just now I was very nervous outside, but I relaxed after entering, probably because there were so many people, so I was not as scared as I was outside in a dark place.

It is more likely that someone is waiting for him in the Dingge study.

Tao Mujia didn't know what happened, the child came back suddenly, but thinking about himself in adolescence, there were only so many messes, either he had quarreled with his family, or he was broken in love, or he just wanted to play, according to Dugu Kai personality, the latter two are obviously impossible, that can only be the first one.

He moved a bench and placed it in front of his desk, waiting for Dugu to come over.

Dugu Qi hesitated a little when he came in, he saw the stool placed in front of the desk as soon as he entered the door, he almost thought that Tao Mujia was going to interrogate him, but he still sat down and waited for Tao Mujia to speak.

"What's going on, let's talk about it." Tao Mujia sat upright with his arms crossed, looking like a domineering boss.

"It's nothing."

"Nothing? Then why did you run back?"

Dugu Qi lowered his eyelids and said nothing, Tao Mujia smiled and poured him a glass of water.

"I guess, there is a conflict with your mother and concubine?"

Dugu Qi took the teacup and glanced up at him, "You know everything, why are you asking me?"

"I'm not a god, how can I know everything? But I know, if you really don't want to tell me, you won't come back here."

"That's just because I have nowhere to go."

"This is where you are going, haven't you already found it?"

Dugu Qi was taken aback for a moment, and looked down to see his own face reflected in the cup.

The two remained silent again, only the candlelight in the room swayed with the wind coming through the window, casting their shadows on the bookcases on both sides.

Tao Mujia sighed, it is the most difficult to talk to this kind of child, because they are smart so they can't confide in others, and because they are immature, they are easy to get into a dead end.

"If you don't want to talk now, then don't talk about it now. When you want to talk, come to me at any time. It's getting late. It's too late to go back now. Stay here first."

After Tao Mujia finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer, leaving Dugu Qi alone to think in the study. At this time, we should leave some space for him.

The knock on the door came when Tao Mujia took off his coat and was about to go to bed.

Tao Mujia looked at the shadow that had just crossed the lower door panel, and knew that Dugu Qi was coming, so he put on his robe casually and planned to open the door.

However, as soon as he reached the door, he heard Dugu Qi say: "Don't open the door."

Tao Mujia paused for a moment, thinking that there was something unexpected about him, and then Dugu Qi said: "I can't tell in front of you."
