The world's ambitions are unparalleled

Chapter 33 Xiaoxiao Weiyu Wen's Lonely Pavilion (1)
In the evening of the next day, outside the heavily guarded prison, a carriage slowly drove up.

The carriage stopped, and the servant sitting on the left side of the shaft jumped down hastily and opened the curtain of the carriage.

Su Mo got off the carriage and walked slowly towards the door of the prison, while the young man quickly picked up a food box in the carriage and hurriedly followed.

The guard at the gate of the prison hurriedly saluted Su Mo, and at the end, he looked at the food box in the boy's hand, wondering: "My lord, this is against the rules."

Su Mo slightly hooked the corners of his lips: "The Marquis of Song and this king are in the end for a son-in-law. Now that this king is here to interrogate him, he will not come empty-handed." After saying that, he tore off the jade around his waist Throwing it to the guard, he said lightly: "If something happens to him after eating my food and drink today, you can present this jade to the emperor, and I will bear it all by myself."

Having said that, although the guards were helpless, they had no choice but to let him in.

The dungeon was dark and damp, filled with an unspeakable strange smell.

As soon as the boy following Su Mo walked in, his feet suddenly went limp and he almost fell to the ground.

Su Mo calmly gave him a hand, he raised his head and glanced at Su Mo, his eyes flashed, it was Jinse.

Facing the piercing eyes of the guards along the way, Jinse tightly held the food box in her hand and turned countless corners.

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Jinse's palms, and she just felt scared.

She didn't know what a sky prison looked like before, but she still thought that if she really had no way to rescue her father, she would find someone to rob the prison and make a desperate fight.Now it seems that if you want to rob people from this heavily guarded prison, you can only die.

Su Mo finally stopped in front of a prison cell, Jinse stopped, turned around with difficulty, and slowly looked at the figure sitting in the prison with his back to him, tears filled his eyes in an instant.

Fortunately, her father, whose clothes and hair were neat as before, was not the embarrassing appearance she had imagined.

"Songhou." Su Mo opened his mouth and called out lightly.

Song Jingtao acted as if he had never heard of it, and he still sat upright with his back to the two of them.

The guard next to him received Su Mo's order and stepped forward to open the cell door.

Unable to restrain herself, Jinse stepped in first, went straight to her father, put down the food box, and knelt on the ground.

Song Jingtao kept his eyes closed until Jinse called out in a low voice, "Father..."

Those pair of dignified and solemn eyes opened suddenly, three points of shock and seven points of anger inside, even now, they still frightened Jin Se.

Jinse's thin body shrank unconsciously, and at the end, she still gritted her teeth and whispered: "Father..."

"What are you doing here?" Song Jingtao's eyes were sullen, his hands clenched into fists, "Let's go!"

Jinse looked at him for a long time, and finally made a move, but lowered her head, opened the food box, took out the food and wine inside one by one, and placed it in front of Song Jingtao.

Song Jingtao was furious and kicked over the food and drink in front of him.

Some vegetable juice splashed on Jinse's face, but Jinse remained unmoved, just wiped it off silently, and continued to arrange the edible dishes again.

Song Jingtao kicked it over again.

Right now there was nothing to eat, Jinse's eyes turned red suddenly, she froze for a moment, then began to pack up the broken dishes and put them back into the food box piece by piece.

"My lord." Song Jingtao didn't even look at her, but looked back at Su Mo, "I've kicked her out of the house, and now I don't care what she does or who she's with. I think she's gone now With the prince, since the prince can tolerate her, please discipline her well!"

Su Mo looked at Jinse, who was silently picking up the pieces with her head down, only occasionally wiping her eyes with her sleeve.

"Marquis Song." Su Mo looked at him lightly, "Although she has been expelled from the house by you, the blood of Yiren still bleeds on Jinse's body. Regardless, she has grown up by your side for 15 years. What kind of temperament is this daughter, does Song Hou still not understand?"

"Understood?" Song Jingtao sneered, "If I knew her, how could I raise such an unfaithful, unfilial, immoral daughter?"

Jinse's body shook slightly, and a piece of debris she just picked up suddenly plunged into her palm.

Blood spilled, confused.

"Marquis Song!" Su Mo's voice turned cold suddenly, "The matter has come to this, why bother to talk like this?"

"Since the prince brought her here, what do you want me to say?" Song Jingtao didn't back down at all, and always hated Jinse's attitude.

Jinse listened silently, unconsciously pulled out the piece of porcelain stuck in her palm, and put it into the food box.At this point, the scattered tiles were finally tidied up. She stood up holding the food box, looked at Song Jingtao's stiff back, and said in a low voice, "Father, I'm leaving first. Tomorrow, I will wait outside the sky prison." you."

After saying that, without waiting for Song Jingtao to answer, she walked up to Su Mo and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Su Mo looked down at her, stroked her head, and then looked at Song Jingtao: "Marquis Song, please take care."

Song Jingtao looked away coldly.

Su Mo took Jinse with him, and just as he stepped out of the prison door, a distant transmission suddenly came from ahead——

"King Ning is here!"

Song Jingtao's expression changed suddenly, and he glanced at Jinse.

Jinse felt stunned when she heard the sound, and raised her head to meet Su Mo's turning gaze, but there was no fear in her eyes, just dazed.

Su Mo didn't panic, he just said, "Just keep your head down and keep silent."

Jinse nodded.

In front of them, Su Li, who was dressed in casual clothes, led Xiao Du, turned the last corner, and appeared in front of the three of them.

Jinse only glanced at him briefly, then lowered her head.

Su Li approached slowly, his eyes touched the figure standing behind Su Mo, the palm hidden in the sleeve was secretly clenched into a fist.

"It turns out that the second brother is also here." Su Li stepped forward, looked at Song Jingtao who had turned his back to everyone in the dungeon again, and sneered, "I don't know if the second brother ever found out what he wanted from Song Hou's mouth? "

Su Mo smiled lightly: "That's Marquis Song, it's not easy."

"It's true." Su Li stood with his hands behind his back, the corner of his mouth still sneered, "Song Hou, who is stubborn and stubborn, is so determined to send himself to death, I really don't know why."

Jinse's heart trembled suddenly, and she secretly squeezed the food box tightly.

Xiao Du behind Su Li had sharp eyes, and suddenly called out in a low voice: "Hey, what's wrong with the little brother behind King Qin, why is his hand dripping blood?"

Su Li's eyes froze suddenly, and quickly passed over the bloody slender fingers, Fang looked at Su Mo again: "It's important, second brother, don't you mind if I see what's going on with that slave's injury?" Bar?"

Su Mo turned his eyes, looked back at Jinse, suddenly reached out his hand, held her hand, and brought it out to Su Li: "It's just that Marquis Song was so stubborn that he overturned the food and wine I brought. , this little thing was accidentally cut. The third brother really doesn’t need to be like this.”

"Really?" Su Li looked at the man standing behind Su Mo with his head bowed, and curled his lips coldly, but suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed her neck.

With a "pop", the food box in Jinse's hand fell to the ground, supported by his fingers, her head, which was always down, was finally forced to lift up.

Su Mo's eyes froze: "Third brother."

But it's too late.

Jinse's face had been completely exposed to the candlelight of the prison, and her pale and calm eyes looked at Su Li two by two.

Sure enough, it was this face, but it was quite different from before.

Su Li's eyes were dim, and the strength in his hands gradually increased, he only sneered and said: "It seems that the food in the second brother's house must not be very good, a good servant, how can he be so pale and thin?"

Jin Se could clearly see the coldness, sarcasm, and sullenness in his eyes.

As her breathing became more and more difficult, she finally made a low voice: "My lord..."

"Shut up." The strength in Su Li's hands increased again, and he sneered, "You slave, what qualifications do you have to call me king?"

"Third brother!" Su Mo said again, but this time he shot at the same time, and took off Su Li's hand that was pinching Jinse's neck, "If that's the case, why do you do it?"

Jinse was let go suddenly, coughed twice with difficulty, raised her eyes to look at Su Li, the eyes were clear and fearless, but suddenly a trace of guilt flashed across them.

The trace of guilt fell in Su Li's eyes, but it only seemed to hurt him instantly.

Why is it such a woman?
He secretly squeezed his palms, glanced at Jinse coldly, and looked at Su Mo, his voice was as cold as ice: "Second brother, please remember that the prison is so heavy that not everyone can come."

Su Mo regained his smile lightly: "Since the third brother is in charge of this case, if it is not necessary, I will naturally not come here again as a brother."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand, gently held Jinse, and led her stiff body forward.

Passing by Su Li, Jinse finally couldn't help but glance at him again, but she didn't look sideways at Su Li, as if she was no longer in her eyes.

Her heart seemed to relax, but when her eyes touched the back of her father in the prison, her heart suddenly lifted again.

She and Su Mo had been away for a long time, but Su Li still stood there motionless in the same posture as before.

Xiao Du hesitated for a long time, and finally called out in a low voice: "My lord?"

Su Li suddenly came back to his senses, and then turned to Song Jingtao in the cell.

Song Jingtao seemed to have noticed his actions, and said first: "Thank you, my lord."

"Marquis Song thanking the King for what?" Su Li said coldly.

"Your Highness is well aware, so it's inconvenient for me to say more." Song Jingtao said indifferently, "It's not in vain that I followed His Highness."

"Marquis Song." Su Li's tone suddenly carried a tinge of mockery, "Do you think this king will still believe that you followed him sincerely back then?"

"Oh." Song Jingtao chuckled, "Your Highness has eyes. However, since I have followed His Highness, even if I didn't mean it sincerely, I still have made some achievements. Now I only ask His Highness to treat the ancient sewer in the old minister's house. show mercy."

"Marquis Song is threatening this king?" Su Li sneered suddenly: "I don't want to touch that Guser, but it's a pity that that Guser followed Song Hou's temperament, and I was determined to go to the fire pit Jump. On top of this king, there are the queen mother and the emperor, this king may not be able to take this idea."

Song Jingtao slowly closed his eyes: "The old minister only asks the prince to be merciful, and others are not very important."

Su Li's eyebrows twitched faintly, his eyes lowered slightly, but his eyes touched a trace of blood on his sleeve, and he curled his lips coldly: "It seems that this king must listen to Song Hou's words?"

Song Jingtao paused, turned around slowly, and then knelt down to Su Li: "Old minister, thank you, my lord."

Leaving the sky prison, Su Li's expression was unprecedentedly gloomy, and Xiao Du felt heavy in his heart.

Seeing that Su Li got on his horse and headed straight for Prince Ning's mansion, he hurriedly caught up and said, "Is the lord going back to the mansion? Princess Jinghao and the lord have a banquet tonight, does the lord not remember?" gone?"

Su Li suddenly reined in the horse and stopped the horse.

Xiao Du calmly breathed a sigh of relief, and just about to open his mouth to lead him in another direction, Su Li suddenly said: "This king is tired today."

Xiao Du was startled, and immediately nodded hurriedly: "Yes, this servant will go and inform Princess Jinghao right now."

Su Li nodded lightly, then whipped and urged the horse again, and returned to the mansion.

Just as he walked to the gate of his garden, he suddenly saw Qiaoyue, the big maid serving him, walking over holding a big cloak, and he stopped in his steps suddenly.

Qiaoyue saw him, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "My lord."

Su Li recognized the cloak, which was the one that the queen mother gave him, but he just asked indifferently: "What do you do with it in this hot weather?"

"It's not taken out, it's taken back." Qiaoyue said, "Last year when the prince came back from winter hunting, the slaves couldn't find this treasure everywhere. Just now I found out that it was randomly stuffed in the wardrobe in the princess's room, so the slaves hurried Go get it back."

After saying that, Qiaoyue knew she had slipped her tongue, and stood with her head down, not daring to look at him again.

Su Li slowly stretched out his hand, and took the cloak from her hand.

That's right, last winter, she wore so many layers of clothes that she wrapped herself up like a ball, with no manners at all.At that time, he still couldn't understand her various behaviors, so he gave her the cloak.

But since he said that sentence, she would rather still wrap herself in a ball than touch the cloak again.

It was the first time in his life that he said such words, and perhaps, the only time.

But in the end, it became a joke.

Su Li slowly squeezed a big cloak in his hand, and after a long time, he suddenly released it, and threw it back to Qiao Yue: "Send someone to send this big cloak to Prince Qin's residence."

Qiaoyue was startled: "My lord?"

However, Su Li seemed to have made up his mind, and continued: "Tell them, this thing will return to its original owner."

Jinse received the cloak early the next morning, and was in a daze for a long time.

Before that, she seemed to only know that her father was in trouble, and she wanted to rescue him wholeheartedly, but she never realized the consequences of being a descendant of the Yi clan.

Return it to its original owner?
She looked at the cloak in a daze, what was he reminding her of?
Seeing her appearance, Luhe couldn't help sighing.

Since returning from the dungeon last night, Jinse's mood was even worse than before. Although she had expected this early in the morning, she did not expect that at this time, Su Li would send this cloak, making things worse.

Thinking of this, Lu He quickly stepped forward, hugged the big cloak, turned around and stuffed it into the cabinet: "Don't look, what's so good about a broken cloak! Come on, let's go for a walk in the garden, so we can take a rest." Relax."

In this way, Jinse was dragged into the garden by her.

Ever since she lived in Su Mo's garden, she hasn't walked around the mansion for half a step. Now that she is walking in the garden in such a majestic manner, receiving the attention of the maids coming and going, Jinse still feels a little uncomfortable .

She had been to the Prince Qin's Mansion before, more or less people in the manor recognized her, once it was passed on, it would naturally spread to the whole Palace soon.

Su Mo really doesn't worry that the news of her being here will spread to the outside world, causing disaster?
She was thinking in a trance all the way, until Lu He who was walking in front suddenly tugged at her sleeve, and said excitedly: "Miss, look who it is!"

Jinse raised her eyes and saw two obese women sitting in the gazebo in front of her, talking and laughing as female celebrities, looking at each other from time to time, with a peaceful and indifferent joy.

Jinse just felt dazed for a while, still recalling the time when she saw these two women in the past, Luhe had already greeted them loudly: "Qingqingyingying!"

The two women raised their heads in response, they were taken aback for a moment, but then they both showed great joy, put down the things in their hands and walked out of the pavilion, and said happily: "It's Miss Song!"

Jinse finally remembered them too, facing the bright smiles of the two, she couldn't help laughing: "Qingqing, Yingying."

She had chosen these two names for them back then, with the homonym of "Lightness". She originally wanted to play tricks on Su Mo, but she didn't expect that Su Mo would actually accept them.

Looking back at the beginning, Jinse seemed to be quite moved, and said to the two: "I didn't know that you two are still here. You are here, are you doing well?"

"Okay, very good." The two nodded, "Thanks to Miss, I bought my sisters and gave me to the King of Qin. My sisters knew that they didn't have the blessing to serve the King of Qin, but they still had The king of Qin took care of us, treated us like honored guests, and spent the same amount of food and clothing as the wives in the mansion. My sister and I thank King Qin, and I am even more grateful to the young lady, but it is a pity that I have not been able to thank the young lady in person. Today is the same as seeing the young lady again. !"

They were so happy, and the things they said were so joyful, Jinse also laughed: "That's good, you two have this destination, and I am naturally happy for you."

Qingqing Yingying let Jinse into the pavilion and sat down, and after a while of greetings, Qingqing suddenly said: "Miss, my sister and I have heard about the things that are spreading outside, please don't worry, miss. Ordinary people must be rewarded for their good intentions."

These days, when mentioning this matter, Jinse felt so relaxed for the first time, and smiled lightly: "Thank you very much."

Lu He looked at the two of them, and suddenly said: "Qingqing Yingying, I would like to ask you, everyone in this mansion probably knows the identity of my young lady now, will no one reveal it?"

Qingqingyingying and Yingying looked at each other and said hurriedly: "Of course not. Although the people of King Qin are kind and casual, the rules in the palace are very strict. Without the permission of the prince, no one dares to say a word that shouldn't be said. You can rest assured, the young lady, the prince will definitely protect the young lady well!"

No one dares to say a word that shouldn't be said?When Jinse heard this, her heart faintly shook.

What kind of person should be able to train such a palace with many people but no miscellaneous?Usually, I only see Su Mo's casual and unruly appearance. Although I know that he must be unfathomable, I never imagined that he turned out to be such a powerful person.

It was rare for Jinse to be in good spirits, and she had a long conversation with the two sisters, Qingqing Yingying, but when she was about to get up and leave at noon, Qingqing Yingying insisted on taking her to eat with her.

Jinse couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to go.

Qingqingyingying's appetite is naturally not small, if it were Jinse in the past, she would have competed with them, but now, it is difficult for her to have the desire to eat anymore.It's rare that there are two people who eat deliciously at the same table today, but it's rare for Jinse to eat a bowl of rice.

Lu He was naturally happy to see her, and said to Jin Se: "Let's come here often for dinner in the future. Although the taste of these dishes is not as good as those in King Qin's garden, at least you taste delicious."

Jinse smiled, but heard Yingying say: "The meals in this mansion are all in charge of a chef, and the taste should be the same. I just heard that the prince specially invited an imperial chef from the palace a few days ago, and wanted to come to the lady's meals , it must be taken care of by the imperial chef himself. The prince treats the lady very well."

When Jinse heard this, she was slightly taken aback.

She only felt that the two of them were a lot stranger after returning to Beijing, and she only thought that it was because they had to take into account their former identities and current situations here, but she never realized that Su Mo's friendship was so nuanced.

Unfamiliarity, could it be because of oneself?
Jinse couldn't help but fell into melancholy again. From the garden of the two sisters back to the garden of Su Mo, she kept thinking about the reason, but she still couldn't figure out her own thoughts.

"It took me a while to laugh, why did you look like this again?" Seeing her appearance, Lu He couldn't help but sighed.

"Luhe." Jinse suddenly exhaled lightly, "Tell me, if I continue to go on with Su Mo like this, is it good or bad for saving my father?"

Lu He stared at her for a moment, and finally said: "The situation between you and the King of Qin is indeed too embarrassing. What is it? No name, no role, at most it can be regarded as mutual interest, but you live in another garden What's more, there are still so many concubines in his mansion. You are lucky to bump into Qingqing Yingying today, what if you bump into his other concubines?"

She spread out all the situations to Jinse one by one. In fact, Jinse knew all about it, but she became more and more confused when she said this.

"Are you... are you answering my question?"
