Chapter 298: Psychological Darkness
Although I have a headache, I still have to face it. Of course, Jingwan never thought of pretending to be an ostrich and not going to see him. First, the consequences will definitely be more serious. Second, in Jingwan's philosophy, if something happens, it needs to be solved. It is absolutely not advisable to drag or something else, and that is her other half. Seeing him uncomfortable, Jingwan is really unhappy.
As for those who found them, how to explain to them, no matter how she came forward.
However, when Jingwan returned, Li Hongyuan was not in the house. Looking at it this way, the anger was really not normal.
After inquiring, no one knew where he went, and the guards left behind were more or less injured, but this was not the reason why they would rest. If you don't allow it, the appearance of eating people is really unbearable for ordinary people, and they have always obeyed the orders absolutely. At this time, they can only stand in front of Jingwan with their hands down, but it is their fault that they failed to guard the master's side.
"I don't blame you. Send someone to look around." Jing Wan rubbed her swollen temples.
Jingwan and the others are not in a hurry, but the people who just came over almost jumped up when they heard that Prince Jin was gone. You know, because of the pressure from above, they are going to take their lives. I went in, I couldn’t eat well, I couldn’t sleep well, and my hair fell out one by one. I finally saw someone. My heart that was hanging was easily returned to its original position, and I came out like this again. This heart is really I couldn't bear it, even if the tone hadn't rested, I hurriedly hurried to find someone.
Because they are unfamiliar with the water village, they are all running around like flies without a head. The people in the water village are inexplicable. What are they doing?
Then, the water village was turned upside down, and no one was seen. After reporting to Jing Wan, Jing Wan was super speechless, "The people in the water village are more familiar than you, there are hundreds of people, and there are always people who have seen the prince's whereabouts, don't you know how to open your mouth and ask? Find a way?"
The faces of everyone are quite wonderful, this is simply too anxious, completely forgotten, and shameless at this moment.
Sure enough, if he opened his mouth to ask casually, he knew where Li Hongyuan was going. He left the water village and entered the mountain. In this way, they couldn't sit still, and they were eager to find them. They stood in the middle of the mountain. Although they didn't go deep, it was basically the shortest route to the water village, but they also deeply felt the danger inside.
On the other hand, Jingwan is very calm. Within a certain range close to the water village, there must be nothing too dangerous. Although Li Hongyuan's skills have not been seen, but he has seen him kill people, and he has a record of fighting tigers, so , how can it be weak? Ordinary dangers can't help him at all.
Jingwan carefully inquired about the situation in that direction, and learned that it was actually a mountain col, about two miles in length, and there was a small lake not far from the end. Usually, there were some small animals haunting, because Because of the frequent hunting in the water village, there are basically no large birds and beasts within five miles.
Jing Wan thanked her, then asked two people to lead the way, and went into the mountain to find someone.
According to their meaning, let Jingwan not go, Jingwan only said one sentence: Are you sure you will "find" the prince back?
Well, I can hear what Jingwan means. It's not the point to find it, but to let him come back after finding it. They dare not say a word, how to let him come back, and everyone with discernment knows, Wang Ye That was to overturn the vinegar jar, not the princess herself.
Jingwan is not wearing a cumbersome fancy dress now. She is dressed in a well-cut cloth. She is just going up a mountain, not climbing a cliff, which is trivial.
The soldiers were divided into two groups. Most of the people spread out first and went to Li Hongyuan first, and the latter guarded Jingwan and followed up.
I thought that the group behind would be very slow, the princess, she is very precious and delicate, walking in the mountains and forests, how can they be fast, maybe they can get short of breath after walking a few more steps, but they soon found out that they think too much. , Princess Jin's speed is not much slower.
Prince Jin probably didn't walk along the col, but went up the mountain on both sides. This idea did not happen. News soon came from the front that someone had been found, right by the lake, but they did not dare to alarm him. .
The vegetation in the mountains is relatively short. The closer you get to the lake, the taller and lusher the trees grow, but at most they are only about 10 feet tall, far from the level of towering giant trees.
Through the gap between the trees, Jingwan also saw Li Hongyuan's figure faintly, sitting with one leg bent on the stone by the lake, feeling a little desolate for no reason, Jingwan's heart subconsciously tugged, and she stepped under her feet. His pace involuntarily accelerated, while the others stopped consciously and scattered around to ensure that they could neither see nor hear, and isolate any danger.
Li Hongyuan was all too familiar with Jingwan's footsteps, but he still sat there motionless. However, he knew the emotions that flashed in his eyes, as well as the guile and calculations. In fact, he knew very well that neither Sun Yilin nor Chen Zhengmin could die, at least not in his hands. There was no estrangement between him and Jingwan, but if he killed them, it would breed estrangement. It might not be irreconcilable, but Jing Wan must have a lump in her heart.
Moreover, as Jingwan herself said, she will probably remember it for a lifetime, and how could he allow it? In this way, the contradiction will only deepen and develop to the end, and it may even get out of hand. This is definitely not what he wants to see. Whoever made him unhappy and could not kill him, he would have to pay it back tenfold.
To say that Li Hongyuan is the craziest right now, but also the most rational. The madman is not scary, the rational man is not scary, but the rational maniac can be quite scary.
Jing Wan
Approaching, put his hand on his shoulder, "A Yuan..."
Li Hongyuan remained indifferent.
"Are you still angry?" Jingwan was actually a bit at a loss, she knew what he cared about, but this problem could not be solved at all, and it was useless to say anything. Reached out and hugged him from behind him, resting his cheek against his head, "I'm sorry."
Li Hongyuan was startled, "Why?" She was the one who had no reason to apologize. It wouldn't be because of Sun Yilin, then he really wanted to kill. Is Wanwan so stupid?
"As a wife, I can't make my husband feel 100% safe, isn't it my fault?"
To be honest, Li Hongyuan doesn't quite understand the word "sense of security". At most, he can make a guess based on the meaning before and after. If he fully understands it, he will probably explode. "It has nothing to do with you, Wanwan, I shouldn't be angry with you, it's me who should say sorry, but, Wanwan, I can't control myself, I don't allow anyone to peep at you, even if I know they can't take it from me You are not allowed to leave."
"Well, I know." In fact, as a man under the traditional etiquette, nine out of ten men would not tolerate such a thing, and would even anger the woman, distrust her daughter, and do something very contemptible. After the incident, I came to regret it too much, and it looked like I was too sorry for my life. It was like a happy emperor. In fact, it was very disgusting.
Li Hongyuan took her hand, and Jingwan stepped on the stone, walked to him, and snuggled into his arms.
Li Hongyuan deliberately controlled it and never let Jingwan notice his eyes. Although he couldn't see it himself, he knew very well that his eyes at this moment were terrible.
After waiting quietly for a while, Jingwan's attention shifted slightly from him, "The scenery here is pretty good."
Li Hongyuan glanced at it, "Yeah." Dispensable replied. No matter how beautiful the scenery was, it couldn't hide his unfavorable heart.
The time is not too early. At this moment, the sky has actually formed a beautiful burning cloud, which is reflected in the back lake and looks extraordinarily beautiful.
Looking at this scene, Jingwan forgot about her troubles for a while, just so quiet, quiet, occasionally saying a few words, time passed quietly, seeing the sky getting darker and darker.
"A Yuan, let's go back."
"Go back."
Seeing that the two were moving, the people around them slowly gathered. The two walked hand in hand at the front, and the others kept a distance of more than ten feet behind.
Back in the water village, the lights were already lit up, and everyone was very happy to see them coming back.
In the evening, when Li Hongyuan saw the generals on this trip, he gave a few words of encouragement, because he had heard about Li Hongyuan's behavior of the King of Hell, but this time he was sincere and frightened, and was flattered.
Li Hongyuan is noncommittal, she is not someone who will consider other people's mood, "Have someone told you to go to the peak?"
"Yes, tomorrow morning at the latest, I will come to pick you up for your departure."
"It's been a few days, can you find out who attacked this king?"
There was sweat on the forehead of the general, "Go back to the lord, the last general will be in charge of the Chief Minister Sun..." After speaking here, he suddenly remembered that the grandson of the Sun was thinking of Prince Jin's concubine, which made Prince Jin jealous, and now I mention it because I want to To die, or do you want to die? But I can't say half of this, so I have to bite the bullet and continue, "...Looking for the whereabouts of the prince, and other things, I will not know for the time being, and I ask the prince to forgive me." In fact, it's not that he doesn't know, but he has no clue Progress, the colleagues in charge of this matter, as well as all the Shangguan, their hair is white, fortunately, the Prince of Jin has deep blessings and no damage, otherwise, they really can't bear the anger of the saint.
"Go down."
"Yes." Is this the end? The general who exited exhaled a sigh of relief, a gust of wind, only to feel a chill on his back, he was already sweating.
At this moment, Jingwan had already fallen asleep, and Li Hongyuan looked at the lights slightly in a trance. Patriarch Pei asked to see him.
Perhaps it was nothing to do, but Li Hongyuan saw it.
Patriarch Pei greeted the ceremony meaningfully, "It's all Prince Jin who is romantic and beautiful, but he was originally an infatuated kind. This is really unexpected, and even to the point of grievances himself, he said that the love between sons and daughters is long and the hero is short-tempered, alluding to Jin. The prince is bound to be disappointing."
"I'm disappointed with this king. The remnants of the previous dynasty must make Patriarch Pei very satisfied."
Patriarch Pei was startled, "I don't know what the lord is talking about." Although he tried his best to hide it, he was really shocked.
"roll!"
Clan Pei clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves, "Your Highness is in a bad mood, so the old man will leave first."
