That face was like Qiao Liangjin, vivid and lifelike.
Besides being surprised, Qiao Liangjin was also moved. She turned her head to look at Su Qing Qing and said with a trembling voice, "You … You carved it? "
Su Su Qing gently nodded her head. "Do you like it?"
Qiao Liangjin raised his head, took two deep breaths, sniffed and laughed: "I like it so much!" "What a great surprise!"
Taking a closer look, there were actually tears on Qiao Liangjin's face. His heart suddenly hurt a little, and he hugged her in pain, but since he gently scratched her nose, Qiao Liangjin smiled. She liked his small actions, and she knew that he was also a warm person.
"Give me your life." He said these four words in a clear voice.
Qiao Liangjin was silent for a moment. His fingers brushed across the ice-cold statue as he smiled: "Look, you aren't speaking properly anymore."
Qing Shui was not surprised at all by Qiao Liangjin's reaction. He walked silently to Qiao Liangjin's side, looked up at the statue with his hands behind his back and said softly, "I can wait."
Qiao Liangjin pursed her lips. Following her clear gaze, she raised her head to look at her own statue. She didn't want to clear her mind and actually covered her palm with it.
Qiao Liangjin was waiting for him to say something, but he only pursed his lips and looked at the ice sculpture, not saying anything.
Qiao Liangjin slightly sighed, "This ice sculpture is really pretty. It's just that when the sky gets hot, it disappears like smoke. Seventh Prince, there's some fate, you will be like this ice sculpture. Perhaps after a while, it will quietly melt away."
"You are a human, not an ice sculpture." The clearing sound was very smooth.
Qiao Liangjin wanted to break free from his grasp. Her clear palm was too warm. She knew that he could warm her hand, but she was unable to touch her heart … Of course, if he opened his heart, it would be different.
She sighed and said, "When will I be able to warm you?"
Qiao Liangjin suddenly smiled, his smile was like a flower. Under the moonlight, her jade-like face was burning brilliantly. Su Qing couldn't help but raise her hand and gently caress Su Li's face with her fingers.
"Do you mind if I like so many people? "For example, there is the Peace Seal, there is Bai Wu, and perhaps that Nan Li …" Qiao Liangjin's voice was very calm.
His finger stopped moving and he smiled bitterly, "You always like to ruin the scenery."
Qiao Liangjin's voice sounded slightly disappointed. "It seems that you mind."
The corner of her lips curved up as she smiled and said, "I care about your beauty. How can they find out?"
Qiao Liangjin's heart warmed. His expression was frivolous, but he withdrew his hand and smiled. "Seventh Prince, we should go back. It's still very cold. Thank you for bringing me here to see my ice sculpture."
Just as he was about to pick her up, Qiao Liangjin gently pushed him away and asked with a sweet smile, "Why don't you try to stand beside me and look at this night capital?"
Her long and clear eyebrows slightly furrowed and then immediately stretched. She held Qiao Liangjin's hand and gently dashed through the wilderness.
Behind him, Lu Li had a bitter look on his face as he looked at the three tall ice sculptures. After Master finished carving, he had already thought of a way to put the ice sculptures into the freezer.
Qiao Liangjin and Jianqing ran side by side in the wilderness, the cold, blade-like wind was blowing on her face, she could only feel the warmth of her palm, and slightly tilted her head to look at Jianqing. She knew in her heart that he had always been sending her inner strength to help her withstand the cold.
Arriving above the Royal City, his hands tightened up as if he was worried that Qiao Liangjin would land in someone's yard.
The bustling brothels, the drunkards who had drunk and vomited, the waiters who were closing their doors, and a family of yellow lanterns, all of which were flickering in the cold wind.
Qiao Liangjin lowered his head and gave a slight smile. This was the imperial city where she lived. There was her, a cheap dad, a cheap bro, and also this quiet and quiet …
The smile on Qiao Liangjin's face didn't fade even when they reached the Golden Flower Pavilion. He stood next to the red coral and smiled, "Did you really leave such priceless items in the courtyard?"
Qiao Liangjin pointed at the fake mountain in the yard and said, "Someone has been watching it all night, so of course I'll put it here."
Hearing this, Lu Bing, who was inside the fake mountain, tightened his clothes, hugged the furnace in his hands, and let out a long sigh.
Su Qian held Qiao Liangjin's hand all the way as he escorted her to the door. As he faced her, his fingers brushed away the long hair on her face and tied it behind her ears. Qiao Liangjin's eyes were lowered, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow, causing Su Chen to suddenly have the urge to kiss her eyes.
He tried his best to suppress the impulse in his heart, and his voice unconsciously slowed down a lot as he said, "Go and rest." I'm going to the Southern Kingdom again, so you have to take care of yourself. No matter what happens, you have to protect yourself first. "
After some thought, he added another three words, "For me."
Qiao Liangjin's eyelashes slightly fluttered, but he still lowered his head and calmly said, "I will, I wish you every success."
After clearing up the store, he left. When Qiao Liangjin heard his departure, he raised his head. Her cheeks were red. She then covered her face with her hands and rushed into the room. She then used her cold handkerchief to cover her face.
Heavens, she, Qiao Liangjin, who had lived two lifetimes, would never be this shy. What was going on today, how could she blush like this?
She took off her outer robe and lay down on her bed. It was already late into the night, and her hands and feet were cold. But her heart was burning hot.
Qiao Liangjin stared blankly at the top of the bed curtain. She knew that she was resisting her heart, as her heart was beating faster and faster.
He was destined not to be a person of this world, so why leave behind so many impossible hopes for people?
He let his imagination run wild until the next day. Then, Qiao Liangjin wrapped himself in a blanket and fell into a deep sleep.
In the days that followed, Qiao Liangjin did not go out. He stayed at home every day to watch Yu Sheng and Ling Xuan learn. He watched Qiao Xinting and Qiao Siyuan study together, helping Guo Caiting manage the affairs of the Residence of Prime Minister.
Qiao Liangjin had pleaded with Qiao Zheng for a long time, releasing Qiao Yin from her ban. Afterwards, he went to persuade Qin Se, giving her a 10% higher allowance than usual. Qin Se was overwhelmed by this unexpected favor, repeatedly expressing that she would definitely listen to Qiao Liangjin's words.
Other than Qiao Liangjin, no one would go and convince Qiao Zheng. Ever since she came into contact with Qiao Liangjin, she knew that this woman was not as fat as she looked and that she had to make plans for her daughter's life. Furthermore, Guo Caiting didn't make things difficult for their Sound Pavilion. If she was willing to go along with the flow, why wouldn't she do so?
Within the Calming Heart Garden.
Qiao Liangjin closed his eyes and pressed his finger on Guo Caiting's pulse. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at Guo Caiting, retracted his hand, and said, "Aunt, I presume you don't need me to tell you, you should know your body's condition."
Guo Caiting smiled, "Eldest Miss, Caiting also understands medicine, my body … "I do not seek for anything else, but to be able to help Miss on the day of my death."
Qiao Liangjin smiled noncommittally as he picked up the bowl of tea and took a sip. "Third Madame, you've carried this burden on your heart for so many years, so it's only natural that your lifespan is short."
Guo Caiting stared blankly for a moment, with a little confusion in her eyes, she asked, "Miss …"
"My mother died due to the plague. When she died that year, you were the only servant girl by her side. She brought you from her mother's house, Third Madame …" At this point, Qiao Liangjin took another sip of green tea. His eyes, however, shifted to Guo Caiting.
Guo Caiting's eyes were still a little blank. She looked at Qiao Liangjin in confusion, and asked in a somewhat hurried tone of voice, "Miss, could it be that your mother didn't die that year due to the plague? What was going on? Back then, when I went to take care of her, the madame said that it was time sickness, and that she needed the imperial physician to take care of it. "
Qiao Liangjin's movements faltered. In the blink of an eye, the teacup in his hand shattered into pieces. The tea spilled over the table and over her skirt.
Qiao Liangjin shook his hand and threw the fragment in his hand onto the table. He asked with a cold and calm voice: "You mean … When my mother passed away, the emperor asked the imperial physician to take care of her? Do you remember which imperial physician it was? "
Guo Caiting lowered her head and thought for a moment, then raised her head and answered with certainty, "It's an imperial physician called Dongfang Heng."
Qiao Liangjin silently repeated the name, pushed aside the handkerchief that Guo Caiting had given her to wipe the tea off her skirt, stood up and left the Tranquil Heart Garden.
When they arrived at the Flowergold Pavilion, Qiao Liangjin walked over to the fake mountain and used his foot to kick the fake mountain. A head popped out from the fake mountain and looked at Qiao Liangjin.
Qiao Liangjin looked up at Lu Bing who was in the fake mountain with his hands behind his back and asked, "You are not Lu Li. Who are you?"
"Your subordinate's name is Lu Bing. Greetings, Royal Concubine." Lu Bing did not finish his words and cupped his hands and bowed on the fake mountain.
"I want to find an imperial physician called Dongfang Heng. Do you have any way of finding out?" Qiao Liangjin's feet kicked the fake mountain over and over again.
"This subordinate understands. This subordinate will investigate the information as soon as possible and deliver it to the wangfei." As Lu Xiao spoke, he took out a pen and paper.
Qiao Liangjin also saw Lu Bing take out a white pigeon from the fake mountain, stuffed the paper into a small bamboo tube on the leg of the white pigeon, and sent the pigeon flying.
Qiao Liangjin raised his hidden hand and wiped the tip of his nose. He then smiled and said, "Do you have a lot of white pigeons?"
Lu Bing suddenly looked at Qiao Liangjin in alarm and shook his head. "Not much."
Qiao Liangjin grinned. He then kicked the fake mountain and asked, "Really? Not many?"
Lu Bing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Princess, you can just say what you want. You want to be a pigeon, don't you?"
Qiao Liangjin raised one of his hands and crooked his finger at Lu Bing. With an evil smile, he said, "Come down, I'll tell you."
Lu Bing could only smile wryly as he descended from the fake mountain and stood in front of Qiao Liangjin.
Qiao Liangjin walked in front of Lu Bing, looked at his chest, walked around him twice, and nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad, this skin bag is also not bad. Is your master's guard one in a hundred?"
Hearing Qiao Liangjin's praise, Lu Bing immediately puffed out his chest and proudly said, "Of course. We have been selected since we were young. We have always been protecting the Seventh Marquis."
