King’s Landing: The Proud Empress

Chapter 272: your name

  Chapter 272 Your Name

  Qin Muyan frowned, but the old man said, "I don't want wages."

Seeing that Qin Muyan's eyes were full of puzzlement, the old man continued, "I was originally a slave of a rich family, and I worked for that rich family all the time. Later, when I got old, I would watch the door for them. When the old man can't do anything , then the big family will sell me. But if I am an old bone, who will take it?"

   Speaking of this, the old man showed a wry smile on his face, "No one was willing to buy me for a month, and the master didn't want to waste any more time for me, so they threw me the deed of sale and kicked me out."

   "Because I am a slave, I don't get paid every month. I am thrown out by the master's house, and I have no way to survive."

  Qin Muyan didn't speak, and listened to him continue.

When the old man said this, a faint, kind smile appeared on his face, "I am in poor health. I thought I would die on the street like this, and there would be no place to bury me. But that day, when I was about to starve to death, At that time, the lady appeared."

   "She passed by me, and when she saw me, she asked me if I would like to work in one of her mansions. She also said that it was not heavy work, and she just needed to watch the house for her."

"I thought at that time that it would be better to live than to die, so I followed the lady to this house. After coming, the lady left some money and left. I am here alone. No one asks me to work, and no one Commanding me to do this and that, I always feel a little uneasy."

   Speaking of this, the old man smiled and said, "Fortunately, the lady is here today, and I can help her with some things, so I won't be so uneasy all the time."

   "So, she is still a good person?" Qin Muyan murmured in a low voice, no matter what, he felt that the word "good person" did not match Junli.

   "To me, Miss is a good person." The old man looked at Qin Muyan and said, "My lord, I think you have a cold face and a kind heart, and you are a good match for Miss."

  Hearing this, Qin Muyan turned his head, a look of uneasiness flashed across his handsome face.

   Seeing this, the old man knew he had a door, so he laughed.

  Qin Muyan stood up with a bang, and walked outside.

  The old man hurriedly called him, "My lord, where are you going? Let's have some food first."

  Qin Muyan ignored it and left quickly.

  Pushing open the door, I saw Junli standing outside the door, staring at him faintly.

  Qin Muyan was a little uncomfortable, wondering if she heard what the old man said just now?

   Step out and walk past Junli.

  A hand suddenly reached out and grabbed his arm.

  Qin Muyan didn't need to look up, he knew who was holding him back.

   "Let go." After a while, he said.

  Jun Li didn't let go, but pulled him back into the room.

   "Eat some food before leaving."

...

  He was silent, but did not object.

  He is not a brainless person. He is seriously injured at this time. The best way is to recharge his energy first, otherwise it will be difficult to return to Huangquan.

  Jun Li saw that he was sitting down, and served him a bowl of ginseng black chicken soup, "Eat it."

  He kept silent, eating in silence.

   In the time it takes for a cup of tea, Junli gave him another pill after he finished his meal.

  He took it, swallowed it for a while, and then said calmly, "I will pay you back for saving my life."

   Jun Li lowered his eyes and sat opposite him, "No need."

  He didn't speak, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

  After the effect of the medicine appeared, Qin Muyan only felt warm all over his body, as if he was in warm water, with inexhaustible strength in his body.

  Even the internal injuries he suffered have almost recovered.

  He glanced at her in surprise, and said, "This medicine is very precious, why give it to me?"

  When I asked this sentence, I still had some expectations in my heart. I was looking forward to something, maybe I wanted to hear her say that she still cares about him...

   "The medicine is meant to be eaten by people, not left to wait for it to go moldy." Jun Li said lightly, seeing his slightly dim eyes, felt a slight pain in his heart.

  He was silent, stood up suddenly, and walked out, "I've made a note of this favor."

   One foot stepped out of the door, and someone grabbed his arm.

   Before turning his head, Qin Muyan felt a slight heaviness on his neck. He looked down and saw that it was the blood-colored amber that he had just returned to Junli.

  He was slightly stiff, not knowing what she meant.

  Raising his hand, he was about to take it off, but was stopped by Jun Li, "I said, I gave it to you, it's yours, there is absolutely no reason to return it."

  He lowered his eyes and said, "You also said that we want to get together and break up."

Junli was silent, and just when he thought she had nothing to say, he heard her say, "Because of our identities, I don't think we are suitable. Because we each want to be strong, I don't think we are suitable. Because of our different positions, I don't think we are suitable. Because we will eventually be hostile, so I don't think we are suitable. Because there are too many things between us that are difficult to change, so I don't think we are suitable..."

He listened, and couldn't help but say, "If it's because of Ghost Domain and Dark Pavilion, then we can get along peacefully in the future. If we each want to be strong, then I'll be softer. If we have different positions, then we should work hard to become the same." . If there are too many things that are hard to change, then try to change them.”

  Jun Li was moved, and secretly ridiculed in his heart, he, a strong person, has been subdued, so what else is she worried about? Life is alive, isn't it necessary to have no regrets?

  She doesn’t want to leave regrets in this life. She regrets everything after losing it. There is nothing in this world that cannot be changed. As long as you work hard to change, everything will be different...

   "What if it can't be changed?" She asked, looking straight into his eyes.

  He laughed, "Then you can tell me, and I will try my best to accept it."

  Jun Li smiled, "Can you really accept it?"

  He had a bad premonition in his heart, but he heard her say, "If I already have a husband, will you accept it?"

   "You can divorce him." He said.

  Jun Li shook his head, "I like him, so I won't divorce him."

  He was shocked, "You... already have someone you like?"

   She nods.

   "What about me?" He pursed his lips, and the corners of his mouth drew a cold arc.

   "I like it too." She said without hesitation.

  He was so angry when he heard it, but he heard her say, "So... can you accept it?"

  He was silent for a long time without words.

  Jun Li knew that he couldn't accept it, so she could give him time to think. Whatever the outcome, she thought, she might be happy with it.

   "Your name?" He asked this question suddenly.

  Jun Li hesitated, not knowing whether to say his real name or a pseudonym.
