Ji Heng and Jiang Li walked to the study.
His study was as quiet as ever, incompatible with his gorgeous appearance. After Jiang Li arrived in the study, Ji Heng didn't go in. He said, "I'll change my clothes first."
His shirt was stained with a lot of soil, Jiang Li could wash his hands with water, but he had to change his clothes. She was sitting in front of Ji Heng's desk. His desk also had some paper with writing on it, which should be the paper he used to practice writing. Jiang Li picked it up and saw that Ji Heng's writing was unexpectedly beautiful, and his pen was sharp and murderous.
It is very similar to him. He didn't write any poems. It looked like they were words in a play. Jiang Li looked at it and put it aside.
The tea on the table was hot, and there were two tea cups. It seemed that he had known that Jiangli would come, so he set up two tea cups in advance. He used to pour tea for Jiangli. This time, Jiangli also filled two tea cups with tea and put one cup on the opposite side.
Just after doing all this, someone opened the door and came in.
Ji Heng changed clothes very quickly, and he wore a red outer garment again. Almost all of his clothes are red, except that the patterns embroidered with gold and silver threads are different. Jiang Lituo looked at him, raised his eyebrows, and sat down while asking, "What do I do?"
"The Yin family brothers and sisters came to our house today." Jiang Li said, "Yin Zhan's daughter, that day we were on the street and saved Xiao Yao's girl."
Ji Heng stared at her, did not speak, smiled faintly, and could not see any thoughts.
"When I left, she asked me about you." Jiang Li said: "She asked me, what identity is you who was with us that day."
"Did you tell her?" Ji Heng asked.
"I said, if I don't tell her, she will know sooner or later."
Looking at Jiang Li, Ji Heng said something unclearly: "You are generous."
Jiang Li didn't understand what he meant by saying this, and told Yin Zhiqing that his identity was generous? As long as Ji Hengcheng wore such ostentatiousness, as long as he was intent, he could find out after a little inquiries. Besides, Yin Zhiqing asked herself, could she still say no? You must know that she and Ji Heng stood together that day, and clearly knew Ji Heng. If you didn't tell Yin Zhiqing, Yin Zhiqing would think she was deliberate.
When Jiang Li thought of this, there was still a bit of unnoticeable irritation in his heart. The blame is on Ji Heng himself. It is clear that he can't get out of the carriage that day. If he didn't get out of the carriage, Yin Zhiqing would not have seen Ji Heng, so naturally there would not be so many things.
Ji Heng seemed to be unaware of her irritation, and only asked, "Why did the Yin family brothers and sisters suddenly go to the Jiang family? Jiang Yuanbai and the Yin family did not seem to have had much contact in the past."
"I didn't have any contact at first, as for now..." Jiang Li was startled, of course she knew why. Because the "Ruyi Langjun" whom Jiang's family saw for her was Yin Zhili.
She could have said this frankly, but for some reason, she couldn't say it when she came to her lips.
"Isn't the Yin family going to be in-laws with the Jiang family?" Ji Heng said with a smile.
Jiang Li suddenly raised her head and faced Ji Heng's beautiful amber eyes. The emotion in his eyes was deep, Jiang Li didn't see it clearly, but he felt that the meaning in his words was a bit tentative and provocative.
Ji Heng actually knew about this? Also, if he has the heart to inquire about something, as long as there is a trace to follow, he can naturally inquire about it. Moreover, he was so concerned about Yin Zhan's family from the beginning, and Ji Heng also controlled every move he wanted to come to the Yin family.
Now that he knew that Jiang Li's previous entanglement and inexplicability, he simply didn't use it at this moment. She clicked: "Maybe it is."
"My husband to show you?" Ji Heng asked with a smile.
Jiang Li gritted his teeth and said, "Maybe it is."
"Then what do you think?" he asked with interest.
Jiang Li looked at him, Ji Heng seemed not to be affected by the news at all, and he was even in the mood to ask her these things. A self-deprecating smile appeared in Jiang Li's heart. As expected, he could withdraw to be an outsider anytime and anywhere. The Jiang family's affairs were just a scene to watch or not to watch. He can be regarded as a friend to himself, and he has done many things for himself, but in terms of emotions, he will always stop here just right.
"I don't have any ideas." Jiang Li said, "I don't know what the Yin family is now. If the Jiang family is married to the Yin family rashly, it will be difficult to think about it again if they get on the thief ship."
"Other than that?" Ji Heng raised his eyebrows, leaned back, played with the folding fan in his hand, and said casually: "Are you interested in Yin Zhili?"
His movements are casual, but there is a hint of coldness in his tone that is not easily detectable. Jiang Li didn't pay attention. She thought for a while before looking at Ji Heng, and said seriously: "Duke Guo knows that when I was Xue Fangfei, I had already suffered a bitterly once. , It's really not easy."
"Yin Zhili looks pretty good. I heard that your family also likes him." Ji Heng said, "You don't mean to like him at all?"
He was not such a boring person. Even when he knew she was Xue Fangfei, Ji Heng didn't ask more about the past and grudges between her and Shen Yurong, as if he didn't care at all. If you change other people, I'm afraid I would have been inquiring sideways a long time ago. Ji Heng is different. He seems to have no curiosity about people who have nothing to do with him, so he often looks at him indifferently.
Today, many questions were asked inexplicably, which shows that the Yin family is highly valued.
"I don't mean to like it at all." Jiang Li said: "Shizi, the county prince, seems to be a good person. To be fair, he is much better than Shen Yurong. But it may be that Shen Yurong makes me taboo. The better the person, the more I feel suspicious. The less you dare to get close, the less you like it or not.
What she said was sincere and sincere, and it was indeed what Jiang Li had in mind. Ji Heng listened and asked her suddenly: "You mean, I am not a good person?"
Jiang Li was taken aback, only to hear him say again: "You didn't keep me away."
"Duke Guo is a good person, of course." Jiang Li smiled, and she said: "But the goodness of the Lord Guo is not the same as theirs. Shen Yurong is different from the outside and the inside, with a human face and an animal heart. Yin Zhili seems to be righteous, of course. It's a good thing, but the person standing next to the righteous man is only afraid that one day he will bear himself for the people of the world. And Lord Guo, I think it is better to bear the world than to let the people of the world take you... People."
He laughed softly, as if Jiang Li's words made him feel very happy. He said, "I said it a long time ago, your mouth is really sweet, and lies tell the truth."
"I didn't lie, Lord Guo is such a person." The girl smiled and repeated stubbornly.
It might be really nice to be with a good person like Yin Zhili. But such a good person may one day be worthy of the people of the world, but sorry for himself. Ji Heng is really a villain in everyone’s eyes. Others think he is terrible and moody, but such a villain, when the world and his own people are set before him one day, he will definitely choose his own person, Jiang Li does not Doubt.
Perhaps it was because he was completely different from Shen Yurong that she treated him differently.
Ji Heng said: "Then don't lie now, answer my question."
Jiang Li said, "Okay."
"Except for Shen Yurong, have you ever been tempted by anyone else?"
His voice dissipated in the night, more intoxicating than the spring breeze. Jiang Li stared at the people in front of him in a daze. His lips were smiling, and his eyes were touching, sitting in front of him tenderly and bewitchingly, which made people feel an illusion. He is the spirit and charm that grows from the deep mountains, devouring people's sincerity to make a living, killing people.
Aren’t all the evil evildoers who are rumored to harm the country all women? But he is a man.
Jiang Li lowered her head, her voice was gentle, and she said, "No."
Ji Heng's eyes flashed, the fan handle knocked on the table, and said, "Okay."
The suffocating dullness disappeared, and he finally let go of her.
"I don't care what Jiang Yuanbai's idea is, but Yin Zhili, you have to keep a distance from him." Ji Heng said.
Jiang Li said: "Why?"
"Since you don't like him, naturally there is no need to stay with him all the time. You always ask me what is the relationship between the Yin family and the Guogong Mansion. I can tell you that Yin Zhan will die under my hands sooner or later. . Yin Zhili and Yin Zhiqing, it is impossible not to become my enemy. Ari," he said softly: "Don't be entangled with my enemy, and don't make me embarrassed."
His enemy
This was the first time Ji Heng admitted in front of Jiang Li that the Yin family did indeed have an antagonism with the Guogong Mansion. But why, Jiang Li just wanted to ask, Ji Heng said: "Don't ask why, I can't tell you."
"Does the Yin family know that you are an enemy?" Jiang Li asked.
Ji Heng smiled and said, "Yin Zhan must know."
Yin Zhan must know, which means that Yin Zhili and Yin Zhiqing may not know it? As a result, Jiang Li was even more certain, only that the grievances between the Yin family and the Guogong Mansion were related to Ji Heng's parents.
But Ji Heng didn't say, she asked for nothing.
"What about Yinzhiqing?" Jiang Li asked, "Regardless of me, the county lord of Pingyang took the initiative to ask me for your information. I think it must not be a whim. Grandpa Guo, she may think Grandpa is very good."
"Are you jealous? Second Miss?" He raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Nothing."
"That's really regrettable." He always said some misunderstandings, and Ji Heng said: "If you say Yin Zhiqing, you don't have to worry. As I said, it's better not to show up in front of me. "
He is happy, beautiful, evil, and ugly. This is a fact that everyone in the world knows, but... Jiang Li said: "There is really nothing to fault with the appearance of the Pingyang County Lord."
Ji Heng shook his head, "A woman of the world, Xue Fangfei can be regarded as a beauty."
Jiang Li's heart jumped, and he didn't understand what Ji Heng meant, so he had to remind him: "Xue Fangfei is dead."
"So now the women in the world are all vulgar fans in my eyes." He smiled.
Jiang Li: "Master Guo, even I scolded him in."
"You are different," he groaned, "you are more cute than them."
Jiang Li: "..."
…
After returning from the Guogong Mansion, Jiang Li never fell asleep anymore, and almost fell asleep after going to bed. It took a lot of effort to plant trees at night, and I was very tired, so I naturally slept soundly. Later on the next morning, Tonger and Baixue were surprised to find that the soles of her new shoes were covered with dirt. Jiang Li said that she was walking in the yard by herself, and she accidentally walked into the garden and confused. past.
Next, nothing special happened to Yanjing City. I don't know if Jiang Li's words in Wanfengtang still touched Jiang's family. For at least this half month, Mrs. Jiang hasn't done anything to replace Yin Zhan with Jiang Li. The two brothers and sisters of the Yin family have not come to Jiang Mansion as "guests" either.
This made Jiang Li a sigh of relief, she still remembered Ji Heng's reminder. I asked the Jiang family not to go too close to the Yin family. Although she knew it clearly, she couldn't help it if Jiang Yuanbai insisted on going it alone. This saves some things.
Jiang Li wondered if he could sneak out of the house and go to Ye's house without paying attention to the concierge. However, the Jiang family's concierge became more and more strict.
In the past half month, Cheng Wang’s soldiers were just outside the city of Yanjing, but he did not attack or retreat. The people in the city were also reminded of their fear. I can't get out, so I stay at home every day. There are a lot fewer pedestrians walking on the streets.
Jiang Li knew that with the passage of time, the soldiers and horses of the king could not be consumed, and sooner or later they would attack the gate of Yanjing City. As for how General Zhaode would respond by then, Jiang Li couldn't imagine for the time being.
Until that day.
That day was a night.
Jiang Li went to bed early at night and slept into the night when suddenly it became noisy outside. Jiang Li woke up in a daze, thinking that she was dreaming at first, but then she found that the lights in the yard were bright, and she was not the only one who woke up, and she was surprised that it was not the case.
She put on her clothes and got out of bed, walked to the yard, and stood at the door of the yard, and saw the maids running around in a hurry. Tong'er and Baixue were also outside, and it seemed that they were about to come and wake her up just now. Jiang Li felt strange and asked, "Tonger, what's the matter?"
Tong'er said: "Girl, are you up? The servant girl is going to wake you up. The old lady tells you to go to the night Fengtang, don't stay in the yard."
The anxiety in her tone couldn't be concealed, and besides the yard separated from the wall, it seemed that the noise of the people next door also rang out. Jiang Li was surprised, a thought came to her mind, she pulled Tong'er aside and whispered. : "Is Cheng Wang doing it?"
"Girl, how did you know?" Tong'er looked at her in surprise, and then said: "The second master's person told us not to talk everywhere, lest everyone panic. Girl, let's go to the night phoenix hall first, night phoenix Outside the hall is guarded by guards from the mansion, so be safer."
The matter was important, Jiang Li did not delay, and walked outside after responding.
When I walked to Wanfengtang, I found out that there were all the darkened people in the nightfengtang. The people in the big room and the second room were there, and even the maids and servants were standing at the entrance of the night Fengtang. It also has to be divided into the absence of the third room in the family, otherwise there are so many people, one night Fengtang is afraid that it will not be enough to stand. There were guards outside, and Mrs. Jiang asked them to walk into the room inside Wanfeng Hall.
Jiang Bingji was a child, and when he noticed that the atmosphere was not right, he opened his mouth and started crying. Mrs. Jiang persuaded him a few words, Jiang Bingji was quiet, crying again, and soon went to sleep, Mrs. Jiang gave him to the mother, let the mother take him to sleep in the back room.
Jiang Youyao is also sitting in the room, one of her eyes is wrapped with a white gauze band, so that people will not be too scared to see her face. However, the other eye that was intact was also dumb, sitting in a chair stupidly, without saying a word.
Lu Shi was a little scared. Although she no longer hated Jiang Youyao as before, she couldn't get close to Jiang Youyao. Seeing Jiang Youyao's appearance, she felt more panicked and got closer to Jiang Li.
"How about father and second uncle?" Jiang Li asked without seeing Jiang Yuanbo and Jiang Yuanping.
"They went out and were not in the house. But your second uncle said that our house is safe and nothing will happen, Xiaoli don't worry." Lu Shi smiled. It's just that although she said this, her tone was a little panic. Jiang Li knew that the people in Yanjing City had not encountered a war for many years, but they were more or less scared when they heard about what Cheng Wang did in Huangzhou City.
Jiang Li said, "I want to come to General Zhaode to take care of everything."
What she said is not a lie, Yin Zhan still has the mind to let Yin Zhili come to Jiang's house to do this. If it is true to the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted, there can be no such thoughts. It can be seen that becoming a king is not terrible to him. Jiang Li also saw clearly that Ji Heng's attitude towards King Cheng was not at all jealous, but he treated this Zhaode general seriously.
I think that Yanjing City will be very peaceful tonight, and Yin Zhan will win the hearts of many people in this battle with Cheng Wang. It's just that they are in the city now, and they can't hear what's going on outside. However, these maids and young servants were talking quietly at the door, looking very dazed and scared.
Jiang Jingrui asked Jiang Li: "Why are you not afraid at all?"
"The second aunt has already said that there will be nothing wrong. Moreover, your Majesty specially asked General Zhaode to return to Beijing in order to cope with becoming a king."
"Ah, I heard that General Zhaode also had a lot of exploits at the beginning." Speaking of Yin Zhan, Jiang Jingrui seemed very interested. He said, "I don't know if Big Brother Yin will also become a general in the future."
He affectionately called Yin Zhili Brother Yin, and he didn't seem to think anything wrong. Jiang Li heard it in his ears, but he didn't agree with him. Who said that the general's son was a general. Ji Heng's father was General Jin Wu, and he hadn't watched Ji Heng pick up the spear for so many years. General Jinwu’s tiger charm has not been found yet, Jiang Li felt like Ji Heng was hiding any tricks, saying that General Jinwu’s soldiers and horses were all abolished, but in fact, he was waiting for one day to confront Yin Zhan. When did it suddenly appear
But in this way, Emperor Hong Xiao would definitely be suspicious. Jiang Li was thinking about all this in her heart. The room felt quiet, and no one was talking anymore. Everyone’s expressions are solemn. Time goes on like this, and I don’t know if the enemy will break through the gates in the next moment and kill in Yanjing City. No one can say whether he can live tonight, of course. Will not have the mind to talk and laugh. Even the little things and the maids outside were silent. Everyone looked at the sky in the yard, guessing every possible situation outside.
…
In the Guogong Mansion, it is as always as Congqi. No one deliberately gathered in one place, nor mobilized all the guards in the house. It’s just that General Ji went to the study and turned around. He walked to the golden armor and touched it graciously. Finally, he walked to the wall and found a long knife on the wall covered with weapons. The long knife was taken out, and he moved a stool and sat in the yard. The long knife was useless for a long time, and it was a little rusty. He rolled up his sleeves and sat in the yard to sharpen his knife.
In the dark night, such a silver-haired old man was sitting in the yard, slowly sharpening his knife, making a toothless noise, if someone walked by, I was afraid that he would be scared. The subordinates in the Guogong Mansion have long been accustomed to it, and don't think there is anything. It was the starling who hung under the eaves. He didn't say anything beautiful when he saw people tonight. He was just fluttering in the cage and seemed a little anxious.
The boy named Ah Zhao also woke up from the room in the middle of the night.
Outside the house, there was also a faint noise of people. He touched the Huozhezi on the bedside cabinet and lit the oil lamp, and saw that there seemed to be people outside the room. A Zhao was taken aback for a moment, and he called out uncertainly, "Doctor Situ?"
The figure was going to walk over, but he paused when he heard the words, turned back, opened the door and walked in. Seeing A Zhao doing this, Situ Jiuyue frowned and asked, "Why did you wake up?"
"It's very noisy outside, and I just woke up." He looked at Situ Jiuyue completely dressed and dressed, and said strangely: "Doctor Situ has to go out so late, is... what happened outside?"
"Wang Cheng rebelled, do it tonight, the outside is very chaotic." Situ Jiuyue glanced at him, "You continue to sleep, don't come out." After that, he closed the door and went out.
"Wait." A Zhao stopped her.
Situ Jiuyue asked impatiently: "What else do you have?"
"Wang Cheng rebelled, the people in this mansion... won't there be any problems?" Ah Zhao asked.
Situ Jiuyue was funny and said, "If you are worried about your own danger, you don't have to. This is the Guogong Mansion. In Yanjing City, there will be no safer place than here, and even the palace is more dangerous than here. If you live here, no one will dare to break in and take your life, let alone Cheng Wang hasn’t attacked the city, that is, Cheng Wang has attacked the city. As long as you are in this mansion, no one will dare to take your life. ."
A Zhao was stunned for a moment before replied: "I didn't mean that, no matter how hard the walls are, they are always done by humans. Sometimes things happen not because people are not good at it, but because they are afraid of being caught off guard by being caught off guard." He laughed. Laughing: "That's how I am."
At this time, it was Situ's turn to be startled in September.
"Doctor Situ is a doctor and a woman. If he is in danger, I am afraid it will be difficult to save himself..."
"Aren't you asking me to stay here, right?" Situ raised an eyebrow on September 1, "You can't even walk now, how can you protect me?"
"I don't mean to say this. I just ask Doctor Situ to find someone with a high level of martial arts. Don't be alone. However, if there is no one in the house, when Dr. Situ is in danger, I happen to be by my side, even if I can't help it. Get out of bed and walk around, and also lost martial arts, so it's okay to help Doctor Situ keep the sword and the sword."
If he is said by an ordinary man, the woman will inevitably feel that the other party is a little glib, which is obviously deliberately to please people. However, when Ah Zhao said it, he was very sincere. It made people believe that he really thought so, and he could do it by saying it.
"I don't understand," Situ Jiuyue said calmly: "You are not relatives to me. According to you, you are willing to sacrifice your life for me. Why? I saved your life and you want it. What a return?"
"Even if Dr. Situ did not save my life, I would help when in danger. Because Dr. Situ is a woman, and I am a man, men should protect defenseless old people, children and girls, right?"
His eyes are bright, and amidst the noise, they are particularly firm. It's really strange. It is clear that the martial arts have been completely abolished, and now they can't walk. Such a person can't really protect someone. However, Situ Jiuyue felt that she felt very at ease around this person.
She said: "Then you are wrong. I am not a weak and defenseless woman. When I was six years old, my uncle killed my dad. In order to take away everything my dad had, you knew I did it. what?"
A Zhao shook his head.
"I gave their cooks medicine, threatened the cooks to use their food, and added the poison I made specially. I gave them all of them to eat, and my aunt and her son and daughter took the poison. Without the antidote, his whole body would fester and die within three days. I thought he would be willing to use his own life in exchange for the lives of his wife and children, so that it would be revenge for my father. Who knows that he is really innocent and not a husband. , Watching his wife and children alive and hurting to death."
Ah Zhao looked at Situ Jiuyue, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
"After that, he tried every means to catch me and kill me. Because my existence was a threat to him. I didn't know how many people were killed on the way out of my hometown. I have been six years old. , I started to kill. I did not have martial arts. The people who chased me were masters, but they all died in my hands, because every item in every part of my body may be poisonous."
She talked about these things lightly, as if it couldn’t be more common, “I know you want to be a knight, maybe you were like this before. Punish evil and promote good, help justice, help the weak, and help each other and be satisfied when the road is wrong. It’s a happy thing for everyone to save your life as a hero."
"I don't like this," Situ Jiuyue said: "I have always believed that the weak and the strong eat the weak. I don't need others to save me. If anyone hurts me, I will kill whoever. I am not the same as you, so don't think about protection. I, saved me, to me, that's ridiculous, and it doesn't need to be."
She said: "You have a good rest." After saying this, she turned and walked out.
