lord and beauty

The old friend is right in front of him, and he is injured all over his body. Tan Qiu felt that if he just left like this, he would really be nothing.

"I don't care, you have to go with me today." Tan Qiu's temper has also become stubborn. Now he can't control Zi Luoping's relationship with this troupe. In short, Zi Luoping can't stay anymore, otherwise Tan Qiu I really don't know if I will ever see him again.

Tan Qiu went up and tightly held Zi Luoping's arm, his knuckles were white and his arm trembled unconsciously, his words softened afterward, even with imperceptible pleadings.

"Brother Luoping, come with me, I have left that place now, you can live with me."

Jiang Beimu stood aside and never said a word, as if he didn't care what Tan Qiu said.

"Young master, I think you are also here with City Master Xiao and the others, why bother to rob people with our small theater troupe." The proprietress glanced over with her narrow and charming eyes like a fox, and immediately let go of her hand with a smile. Lazily said: "Furthermore, our little theater troupe will give whatever you can, but you can't snatch it, right?"

The proprietress's eyes flickered, and she looked at Zi Luoping lightly, "If he doesn't want to go with you, you can't force him to go, right?"

"In this way, our family is not unreasonable." The proprietress seemed to have figured something out, leaning on the door frame, lazily stretched out her right hand, and looked at the bright red Danko on her nails with her backhand, her tone was casual, "You ask Ask him if he would like to go with you, he only needs to nod, and I will release him immediately without saying a word."

Tan Qiu looked at the lady boss's determined smile and hated her teeth. Just now, Zi Luoping clearly refused to leave with him. Now let him make a choice. Isn't this obviously bullying?

Tan Qiu's words stuck in his throat, like a choked hard object, he couldn't get up or down, he was very uncomfortable, but he couldn't say anything, after all, the words of the proprietress could be called generous in any other place.

But unfortunately, brother Luoping didn't want to go with him.

Seeing Tan Qiuqi's incoherent speech, Jiang Beimu trembled slightly, so he couldn't continue to watch. Although he didn't know what the origin of this song was with Tan Qiu, which made Tan Qiu value him so much, Jiang Bei But Mu didn't want to see Tan Qiu being bullied like this.

"Let's make a price." Jiang Beimu interrupted the proprietress, not bothering to argue with her, and said bluntly.

"What?" The proprietress pretended to be stupid.

"I don't want to say it a second time. If you don't want to solve it properly, then it's fine. Sifang City is so big, it doesn't matter if a few people are missing. Anyway, the final case will be submitted to the City Lord's Mansion."

Jiang Beimu didn't intend to spend too much time talking with her, and said coldly.

The cheeks of the proprietress who had been smiling froze for a moment, and then gradually cooled down.Even the people in the theatrical troupe behind her couldn't help feeling chills down their spines, Jiang Beimu was blatantly threatening them.

I thought I would be able to live in peace if I found a Penglai building, but I didn't expect to encounter trouble the first day, and everyone couldn't help feeling a little resentful in their hearts. After all, it's just a sick singer, so what can I do if I give it away.

Once everyone had such an idea, they began to waver unconsciously, and even the boldest reached out and gently pulled off the sleeve of the proprietress.

The proprietress took a deep breath, and the calmness on her face disappeared. It is true that they have just landed in Sifang City, and she has not had time to find a backer, so it is indeed not a wise move to rush into the people of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Since you say that...then"

"Can I chat with Xiaoqiu alone for a while?"

Before the proprietress could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by a weak voice.

Zi Luoping's face was like white paper, and the remaining rouge on his lips was smudged, which made his face look ugly, as if all the strength had been taken away from his whole body, as if he could faint to death in a second .

The proprietress looked worried, she said "yes", she turned around and said to the crowd, "They're all gone and ready to go, they're going to play later, they're all gone!"

When the crowd dispersed, Jiang Beimu stood at the door, stepped out very thoughtfully, and turned around to close the door.

Tan Qiu opened his mouth, looking at Jiang Beimu with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. Jiang Beimu sensed his thoughts and nodded slightly to indicate that it was okay, but seeing that Tan Qiu still looked sorry, he opened his mouth and said: "It's okay, I'm right at the door."

Only then did Tan Qiu sigh, "Thank you for your hard work."

Jiang Beimu paused as he closed the door. For some reason, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. In the end, he didn't say anything, and closed the door with a "crack".

"Brother Luoping..." Tan Qiu stretched out his hand to help Zi Luoping back to the bed, took a pillow and leaned against the side of the bed so that Zi Luoping could sit more comfortably, then turned around to pour some water, walked to It was only at the table that I suddenly remembered that the teapot and water cup had been smashed to the ground.

"Don't bother, come and sit down." Zi Luoping said.

Tan Qiu responded, and sat down beside Zi Luoping, and stretched out his hands cautiously to hold those slender and slender hands. The palms felt slightly awkward, as if they were all bones, and Tan Qiu felt sour.

Zi Luoping was leaning against the side of the bed rail, the tenderness in his intact right eye was so familiar to Tan Qiufen, Zi Luoping didn't rush to speak, just looked at it quietly for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "I am now Doesn't it scare you?"

"No." Tan Qiu shook his head hurriedly, and then he couldn't help but said, "What's wrong with your eyes? Was that person doing it?"

Zi Luoping hesitated for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's not his doing, I deserve what I deserve."

Tan Qiu couldn't help opening her mouth.

Zi Luoping continued: "I won't hide it from you, they are right, I shouldn't have left with him in the first place."

"I thought he was sincere in treating me well, but now it seems that it was just a whim."

Tan Qiu bit her lip secretly, wanting to say something, but didn't know how to say it. At this moment, any comforting words seemed pale, and she held back for a long time before she could only ask: "He...what's wrong with you?"

"As you can see, he sold me to this theatrical troupe." Zi Luoping's voice suddenly paused, as if thinking of something, he smiled and said: "It's not all about him, I also nodded and agreed."

Tan Qiu couldn't understand it even more. At this moment, all he wanted was to let Zi Luoping go back with him, so he hurriedly said: "Then you come with me? Anyway, you are not doing well here."

Zi Luoping shook her head with a smile, patted Tan Qiu's back hand comfortingly, and continued: "Do you want to know how I have lived these years?"

Tan Qiu was anxious, Zi Luoping didn't nod and agreed to go with him, his heart was always hanging, but Zi Luoping didn't rush.

Not waiting for Tan Qiu to nod, Zi Luoping smiled and said: "I walked with him that day full of joy. I thought I would survive and live a good life with him, but I never thought that he would not bring me back home, but put me in a hut."

"You also know that I was sold into Chunlou since I was a child. Although Zi Luoping is a flower name, I got used to it after using it for a long time, but it is not a serious name when I hear it. For him, I deliberately used Luo Ping's name." At this point, Zi Luoping suddenly laughed, and a blush appeared on his originally pale face.

"It just so happens that his surname is also Luo."

"I took it seriously, but he came less and less every day, and he didn't even come to me at all. I had no choice but to go to him." Zi Luoping smiled slightly, as if thinking of something, his eyes Gradually erratic, as if the thoughts also returned to that moment.

"It was only then that I realized that he has always had a fiancée. When I went to find him, he was even about to get married, so he was too busy to come to me... Or, he had long forgotten me."

"After I inquired a few times, I found out that the reason why he rushed to get married in such a hurry was because his fiancée was pregnant, but what's more coincidental is that his fiancée actually had an affair and wanted to elope with her lover before getting married."

Tan Qiu was startled, and couldn't help but let out an "ah".

"After going through several rounds, I found the lover's house, and stole the letters between them, and decided to tell him with joy..."

"Unexpectedly, he didn't care at all, and even scolded me for being troublesome, tore up the letter, first scolded me, and then patiently advised me to go home and wait for him, I was also in a daze, and I actually believed it, so I just went back obediently gone."

Zi Luoping laughed at himself, "It's a pity that I didn't wait for him until the evening, but his fiancée got the news from nowhere and came to find me."

"She threatened me not to intervene anymore, otherwise she will make me look good. I am not afraid of her, so I just asked her to propose a divorce. Since she has a lover she likes, why does she want to marry someone else?"

"I still remember that the wind was very strong that night, she kept searching around my house, trying to find other evidence..." Zi Luoping smiled miserably, "But I have already given him the only evidence..."

"She didn't find it, but she still felt that I was hiding, so she hit me when she came up. I didn't want to conflict with her. Who knew that a big fire suddenly broke out that night. The fire started all at once. It was released by someone..."

"How ironic." Zi Luoping smiled, "He wanted to burn me to death, maybe he knew that his fiancée was also in the house, he panicked and wanted to save her regardless of the flames coming in, my eyes were also at that time Blinded by the smoke."

"It's a pity." Zi Luoping sighed, "His fiancée was shocked and caused a miscarriage, and I, the culprit, was sold out."

Hearing this, Tan Qiu was furious.

"It's obviously not your fault, and you didn't set the fire. How could you be the culprit?! It's too much! Who is he? Where is he? I want to teach him how to look good!"

After Zi Luoping spoke, he was stunned for a moment, and then slowly recovered, but he didn't answer Tan Qiu's words, but asked with a smile: "The person who came with you, who is he?"

"He..." Tan Qiu paused, as if he didn't know how to tell Zi Luoping, he hesitated for a while before slowly saying: "He... well, he is a very important person to me."

Zi Luoping nodded slightly, as if he saw something, but didn't point it out, "I told you so much, and I didn't want you to resent me for me. These things are in the past, and I have let go of them long ago. I don't know people well. Qing, can you still blame others?"

Tan Qiu pursed her lips and said nothing, but her expression was still stubborn.

"He... is different. He is very nice and will be willing to help us. You go out with me first, and I will discuss the rest with him. "

Zi Luoping's tone was gentle, but with a hint of incredulity, "It's a blessing in misfortune that you were able to escape from Chunlou, and it can only be said that it is God's blessing to meet you, so how can I Be your burden again?"

"You can entrust him to buy me out today, so how can you pay back the favor you owe him? How can you repay his favor?"

"In this world, it's good to owe anything, but you can't owe feelings."

Zi Luoping's voice was leisurely, like a gust of wind engulfing Tan Qiu's mind, turning into a bird and flying out of the window, and then dissipated in the cold wind.

Sifang City was still bustling at night, with two carriages driving one behind the other in the empty backstreet.

Tan Qiu shrank in the corner of the carriage, covered with Jiang Beimu's cloak, his eyelids drooping and drowsy, his mind was full of what Zi Luoping said.

"What? There's such a thing." Xiao Ye's voice came from outside the carriage, and the pitch had been cut several layers through the thick curtain, but it still pierced into Tan Qiu like a needle. in the brain.

"Why don't you want to go?"

Xiao Ye asked, but Tan Qiu sighed. Jiang Beimu was taking a nap on his side, and opened his eyes when he heard the movement, just in time to see Tan Qiu shrunk his body and buried his head in the cloak. With a little grievance.

"I do not know either."

In the end, he still failed to persuade Zi Luoping to leave. Even the moment he stepped out of Penglai Tower, he had a feeling that today might be the last time he saw Zi Luoping.

"Are you hungry?"

Jiang Beimu suddenly spoke up, but didn't mention anything about Penglai Tower.

Tan Qiu weakly shook his head, feeling depressed.

"Are you tired?"

Jiang Beimu spoke again.

Tan Qiuyuan wanted to shake his head, but suddenly stopped halfway, Jiang Beimu didn't rush, just sat there, watching Tan Qiu quietly.

After a while, Tan Qiu nodded slowly.

Jiang Beimu didn't ask any more questions this time, but just moved a bit. Then, propping up the cushion with one hand, he slowly sat down beside Tan Qiu in the corner. After sitting down, Jiang Beimu stretched out his hand to hold Tan Qiu With just a little effort on his arm, Tan Qiu felt like a rabbit being picked up by Jiang Beimu without any resistance, and then he was embraced by Jiang Beimu, and the cloak was covered again.

Tan Qiu sat on Jiang Beimu's lap, his body was covered by a cloak, and he leaned against his arms. His breath was filled with the familiar and reassuring smell. fever.

Jiang Beimu didn't say anything, and after holding Tan Qiu into his arms, he raised his head and closed his eyes, as if continuing to take a nap.

Tan Qiu sniffed and retracted her head again.
