N Ways to Save Yourself [Comprehensive Martial Arts]
Chapter 23 True and False Conspiracy
"Send someone to hunt you down?" Hearing Ye Ke's words, Gong Jiu froze for a moment.He just thought about it, and cold sweat broke out on his back, "Why would I do this?"
"You've heard the rumors too." Recalling what he said with Jin Jiuling in Piaoxianglou, Ye Ke said softly: "Jin Jiuling said that someone brought my portrait to the yamen to report the crime."
"If you don't get rid of the relationship, I'm afraid your Taiping Palace will also suffer." Seeing that Gong Jiu's expression was not very good, Ye Ke explained patiently.
Before Gong Jiu could respond, footsteps came from not far away.The two looked out together, and saw that the person who came was Shaman, and neither of them spoke again.
"King Taiping learned that you came back and prepared a dinner party. He asked me to take you there." He gave Gong Jiu a cold look, and Shaman turned his eyes away with some disgust, and looked at the wooden stake on one side.
Gong Jiu clenched his hands. He was about to let Shaman leave, but when he thought that Ye Ke had traveled all day without eating or drinking, he said lightly, "Okay, lead the way."
A trace of surprise flashed in Sharman's eyes when he didn't hear the words of refusal.From the moment she came to Prince Taiping's mansion, she could see that the relationship between the prince and Prince Taiping was very bad.
The person who had been refusing to sit with King Taiping would let her lead the way this time.She couldn't figure out what Gong Jiu was scheming again, but what this kind of person thinks in his heart will never be a good thing.
Following Shaman to a place where music was played, Ye Ke paused slightly.Sitting inside was a very imposing man, who was somewhat similar to Gong Jiu's appearance.
"Ah Jiu, have you been injured outside these few days?" Seeing Gong Jiu coming in, King Taiping stood up and looked up and down the person in front of him worriedly.
"No." He didn't want to respond, but Ye Ke was still there.With his skill, there are very few people who can hurt him, but the people around him make him not want to say that, he wants to be protected by the people in front of him, just like he used to be.
King Taiping froze for a moment, he never thought that Gong Jiu would respond.Ever since Gong Jiu's mother left and now, the father and son have hardly had a proper conversation.
Thinking of this, King Taiping felt sour in his heart, and he waved to Gong Jiu, "Come and cook, the food will be cold in a while."
Gong Jiu hesitated for a while, but instead of sitting next to King Taiping, he chose a corner to sit with Ye Ke.
Sensing that King Taiping was always looking at him, Ye Ke smiled at him slightly, and was about to say something when Gong Jiu pushed him down on the stone bench.
"He saved me and took care of me all the way." Seeing a look of embarrassment in King Taiping's eyes, Gong Jiu's tone was a little cold, "You won't drive me away just because he is the owner of White Camel Mountain Villa people?"
King Taiping smiled gently, and the guard in his heart dissipated just now, "How come, since Zhuang Ye is Ah Jiu's benefactor, then you are also the benefactor of the entire Prince Taiping's mansion."
Worried that Ye Ke would feel embarrassed, Gong Jiu lowered his hand and pressed Ye Ke's hands on his lap.After lightly shaking her twice, Gong Jiu smiled faintly, "Since that's the case, let's not talk about those disputes in the Jianghu."
"Okay, it's fine not to mention it." King Taiping nodded.
Seeing that Shaman was standing aside and hadn't sat down, and remembering that Gong Jiu had always cared about Shaman, King Taiping waved at Shaman as if he was afraid of neglecting him, "Sit next to Ah Jiu."
Sharman didn't refuse either, she had guessed it would be like this just now.It's just that in front of outsiders, she has to sit next to disgusting people, and she just feels extremely humiliated.
Seeing that everyone was here, he waved to the attendants on one side and signaled them to pour wine. After that, King Taiping smiled gently: "I have prepared some fine wine, and I want to taste it with you, but I have never had the chance."
As the wine poured into the cup, Gong Jiu's eyes darkened.He didn't respond, but took the jug from his entourage and poured Ye Ke a glass, "Try it?"
Seeing that Gong Jiu kept holding it up, Ye Ke frowned slightly, and reached out to take it.
He could feel that the eyes of his surroundings were all on him, it wasn't uncomfortable, it was just a little puzzled.He always felt that the people around him were a little strange, as if they were sitting together with a lot of thoughts.
Picking up the wine glass and touching it lightly with Ye Ke, Gong Jiu didn't care what the others thought, just raised his head and drank it down.
"This wine is very strong, Ah Jiu, drink it slowly." Worrying that something might happen to Gong Jiu, King Taiping couldn't help feeling anxious.
But he didn't dare to stop him, he knew that Gong Jiu was tired of him.If he goes to stop him, I'm afraid Gong Jiu will make even more inappropriate actions.
Seeing that Gong Jiu wanted to pour another cup, Ye Ke raised his hand and held down Gong Jiu's wrist.He took a sip just now, the wine was indeed very strong, and when he poured a whole cup into his throat, he probably didn't feel any pleasure other than the burning sensation.
Being held down by the wrist, Gong Jiu stopped moving for an instant.He looked at Ye Ke who was calmly touching the wine glass, and smiled softly, "I seem to be a little dizzy, can you bring me some food?"
Picking vegetables is not a big deal, and Ye Ke didn't hesitate.After taking the wooden chopsticks in front of Gong Jiu and holding some for him, Ye Ke lowered his voice and said, "Eat."
Seeing the scene in front of him, King Taiping was stunned for a moment.But thinking that Gong Jiu said "dizzy" just now, he thought that Gong Jiu was drunk and couldn't tell who the person beside him was, so he didn't think much about it.
"I heard from the guard who came back a few days ago that you go pick ice flowers for Miss Shaman. These flowers only bloom once in a few years. Have you picked them yet?" I thought that whether I picked them or not, I might not be able to tell them. Being able to impress the people around Gong Jiu, King Taiping had a smile on his face.
Hearing what King Taiping said, Ye Ke paused for a moment with the hand holding the wine glass.He was still wondering if the ice flower that was delayed by him was going to be given to that "husband" by Gong Jiu, but now it seems that he was thinking too much.
Shaman, who was sitting next to Gong Jiu, learned of this, his cold face was stained with another layer of frost.She hates that Gong Jiu thinks he's doing a good job for her, she doesn't want anything, and doesn't need anything.
"I didn't pick it." Gong Jiu frowned, and he couldn't help looking at Ye Ke.
He wanted to see how the people around him reacted, even if there was only a slight difference, it would be enough to prove that the two of them were unusual.But Ye Ke didn't react at all, as if he was just an ordinary passerby.
"I can't eat anymore." He took the wooden chopsticks from Ye Ke and held a thick layer for him before putting them down.Ignoring King Taiping's surprised expression, Gong Jiu sighed softly, stood up and signaled the attendants on one side to come over, "Look at Master Ye and wait for him to finish eating what's on the plate before leaving."
Seeing Gong Jiu get up, King Taiping also stood up, "Shaman, send Ah Jiu off."
Shaman stood up, nodded to King Taiping, and looked coldly at Gong Jiu, who was not drunk, "My son, let's go."
Worried that King Taiping would embarrass Ye Ke when he left, Gong Jiu did not move for a long time.It wasn't until Ye Ke looked at him that Gong Jiu lowered his eyes, as if he had been wronged, "After eating these, you go to me."
"I'll go find you." Under Gong Jiu's gaze, Ye Ke took a bite of food and put it in his mouth, signaling that he would finish eating.
Seeing Gong Jiu leave, Ye Ke, who didn't have much appetite in the first place, even lost his appetite.
"How did Master Ye and Ah Jiu meet?" King Taiping got up and poured a glass of wine for Ye Ke, sizing up the person in front of him, his gaze was much stricter than when Gong Jiu was there.
"Besieged by the so-called decent, I fell off a cliff. When I fell into the lake, I hit Gong Jiu, and I took care of him until he recovered from his injuries." He didn't intend to hide it, and this matter was not unspoken.
Seeing that King Taiping did not show disbelief, Ye Ke paused, "You and Gong Jiu..."
Telling the people around to retreat, King Taiping sighed with a painful expression, "Master Ye, Ah Jiu treats you differently. I can tell you what happened next, but I hope you don't tell Ah Jiu."
"Tell me." Putting down the wooden chopsticks, Ye Ke sat up a little more.
"Ah Jiu's mother is a foreign spy, and we were all moved. My wife didn't want to hurt me, so she chose to commit suicide." King Taiping rubbed his forehead, "This is why Ah Jiu has always hated me, I refuse to say Get out for fear of hurting him."
"If Master Ye cares about Ah Jiu, please treat him well." King Taiping said, raising his eyes to meet Ye Ke's. "I can eradicate all unfavorable people for you."
Hearing what King Taiping said, Ye Ke smiled lightly and rejected the request of the person in front of him.But for Gong Jiu, he still has a knot in his heart, "However, you can rest assured that I will not speak out about this matter."
The person Gong Jiu really cares about is not him.What this person cares about may be Shaman, or it may be the "husband" he has not met yet.
Leaving the place where the banquet was held, he followed his entourage to Gong Jiu's bedroom. Before he had time to knock on the door, he heard painful groans coming from inside.
Hearing Gong Jiu's rough breathing inside, Ye Ke froze in place.The entourage beside him wisely left, leaving him standing alone at the door at a loss.
"why!"
"Ye Ke..."
"Hit me……"
Hearing Gongjiu's intermittent voice in the dormitory, Ye Ke couldn't help frowning.He has never hit Gong Jiu before, so why did he hit this person?
Thinking that Gong Jiu was just having a terrible nightmare, Ye Ke stretched out his hand and pushed open the closed bedroom door.
He was still holding the lantern that his attendants gave him when he left, and the moment he opened the door, he easily saw the half-naked Gong Jiu, rolling on the ground in excruciating pain.
"It's so uncomfortable, hit me!" Gong Jiu couldn't see who was coming, his eyes were covered by messy hair, and he slammed his whole body against the crooked wooden stool.
"Ah Jiu..." Ye Ke felt a chill running down his back, he closed the bedroom door behind his back, and walked quickly to Gong Jiu's side, "What's wrong with you?"
Worried that Gong Jiu would continue to hit the wooden bench with his body, and there would be more scratches, Ye Ke picked up the person on the ground and pressed him into his arms, "What's wrong with you?"
Feeling his neck being bitten hard, Ye Ke endured the pain and raised his hand to run along Shun Gongjiu's back.
Borrowing the lantern, Ye Ke saw a whip on the ground that was the same as Sharman's waist, and he suddenly thought of what Sharman had said to him.
"If you saw his ugly appearance, you wouldn't look at me like that."
"You've heard the rumors too." Recalling what he said with Jin Jiuling in Piaoxianglou, Ye Ke said softly: "Jin Jiuling said that someone brought my portrait to the yamen to report the crime."
"If you don't get rid of the relationship, I'm afraid your Taiping Palace will also suffer." Seeing that Gong Jiu's expression was not very good, Ye Ke explained patiently.
