Although Qiu Yilan repeatedly refused, Jiang Yashuang still suppressed his anger and followed her to see her off without saying a word.
Both of them felt that they were the one who had been wronged. Although they walked through the flowers, trees and pavilions in the other courtyard one after another, they both regarded the other as nothing.
It wasn't until he passed through a corridor that someone's voice came from not far away, and Jiang Yashuang whispered: "It seems that my brother is coming home late from socializing... let's get out of the way."
Qiu Yilan ignored him, but followed him and hid in the shadow of the rockery outside the corridor.
A moment later, as expected, Jiang Gan supported Jiang Yadan, who was staggering, as he passed by the corridor and whispered: "Master, should you go to the young lady's place now, or to Aunt Green?"
"Go to the Luzhan House. Go talk to the Young Madam and ask her to explain things to me." Jiang Yadan said vaguely, "Don't let grandpa know that I almost stayed in the 'Jinpa Pavilion' again today..."
He was out having a good time, and when he came back, he slept with his concubine, but he asked his wife to lie for him and deceive his elders - this scum!
Qiu Yilan cursed and couldn't help but glared at Jiang Yashuang beside her: As the saying goes, like brother, like brother, she was almost deceived by this guy's innocent appearance, thinking that he was really Full of integrity!
Jiang Yashuang seemed to be aware of her thoughts. When Jiang Yadan walked away, she snorted: "What do you want to do after listening to my Bage? I'm not like him!"
"Why don't you look like him anymore?" Qiu Yilan sneered, "You two are brothers. Not only do you look very similar, but you also have a shadow of each other!"
"..." Jiang Yashuang's chest felt a little tight and she said angrily, "Let's go!"
So the two of them fell into silence again - the road went smoothly. Seeing the high wall in sight, Qiu Yilan quickened her pace and wanted to throw Jiang Yashuang off. After running a few steps, a muffled sound of "plop" suddenly came from under her feet. I felt a sharp pain in my left ankle at the same time!
"Ugh!" Qiu Yilan cried out in pain, staggering and holding on to a flower tree by the roadside before she stopped. She looked back and saw a box-like object scattered where she had just stepped, and something mechanical was exposed among the crushed parts—it was probably a trap set here.
Jiang Yashuang, who was a few steps behind her, sensed something was wrong and caught up to her and asked, "What's wrong?"
"You didn't tell me there was a trap!" In such a short time, Qiu Yilan was so painful that she lost all feeling in her left leg below the knee. Cold sweat rolled down the corner of her robe, but what was stronger than the pain was the grievance - she was so angry I almost cried on the spot, "Why are you like this!"
Jiang Yashuang was startled: "Where did the trap come from?" He followed her gaze and frowned, "This is not set up here, this is a hidden weapon box used for hunting in the forest... Strange, why is it here? ? Did someone get lost accidentally?"
Seeing that Qiu Yilan was still in tears even though she tried her best to endure it, he hurriedly said, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly tomorrow - how is your injury? Let me see!"
"How's it going? I can't die anyway!" Qiu Yilan was already very depressed after they had been in a stalemate with him all the way, but unexpectedly another unexpected disaster happened. She was so depressed that she wanted to hit the wall. When Jiang Yashuang asked, she immediately broke out and said , "What's so good to see! You're not a doctor! Even if you are a doctor, you can get better just by looking at it?!"
Jiang Yashuang sighed, half-knelt down, and gently brushed away her skirt. When she saw blood stains on her stockings, her expression changed. He carefully pulled down the stocking tube, and saw a large patch of black and blue on his swollen ankle. Against the backdrop of the crystal white and tender skin around it, it was shocking. The area in the middle that had been directly hit by a hidden weapon was even more bloody!
He stared at it for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Be patient, I'll see if you've hurt any bones!" He pressed it down gently - immediately causing Qiu Yilan to let out a low cry and curse in a trembling voice: "Do you want to kill me?!"
"The bones should be fine." Jiang Yashuang breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "I remember there is a pavilion nearby. I will help you sit there while I get the medicine!"
At this time, Qiu Yilan was already leaning against the flower tree, dying of breath, and said bitterly: "It's all your fault! If you hadn't sent me there, why would I have run those few steps just now!"
She made such unreasonable troubles, and the atmosphere between the two became more relaxed - Jiang Yashuang stood up with a dumbfounded expression: "Okay, why are you running? Aren't we still under the wall?"
"You are walking with me like a stupid person. It makes you annoyed when you see me!" Under Qiu Yilan's irritation, her bad-tempered nature was fully exposed and she said angrily, "I want to go back early and keep out of sight. What's wrong with me?!"
"...Yes, yes, you are right. This is all my fault. I shouldn't have stopped talking to you on the way and made you angry and walked a few steps further." Jiang Yashuang, who has many sisters, has long learned not to talk to girls. , especially the angry girl who was being reasonable, he sighed, "Okay, I'll help you sit in the pavilion, and you should get some medicine for your injury."
After some coaxing, she managed to coax Qiu Yilan, and half-supported, half-carried her to sit down in the pavilion. Jiang Yashuang hurried back to her yard to get some medicine for her injuries. Thankfully, no one noticed the two of them during this time— After taking the medicine, Qiu Yilan finally felt better and smiled: "Thank you very much...wait a minute!"
In the middle of her laughter, her expression suddenly changed, "How do I go back?!"
The two of them looked at the high wall in the distance, and then at her bandaged ankle... After a moment of silence, Jiang Yashuang coughed: "The situation is urgent, I... can I carry you over?"
Qiu Yilan said angrily: "Who wants you to hug me!"
Jiang Yashuang said awkwardly: "I don't mean to offend you, but how are you going to get there by yourself now?"
Another moment of silence…
Seeing Qiu Yilan biting her lip and not speaking, Jiang Yashuang knew that she couldn't get off the stage, so she softened her tone and coaxed, "How about I ask someone to clean up the yard, and you can live here first?"
"No!" Qiu Yilan immediately objected, "Who wants to live here!"
"Then I can only send you there." Jiang Yashuang spread her hands and said, "You can't let me call the door of Xihe Prince's Mansion in the middle of the night, right? I don't care, but what about you?"
You know and you still ask me? ! Qiu Yilan roared silently in her heart: Don't you know girls have to be reserved these days? As soon as you said you wanted to hug me, I agreed. Wouldn’t it look very disrespectful!
Although climbing the wall in the middle of the night seems to be more extreme, you started it - in this situation, if you want to be really considerate, you should hug me over without saying a word, and I will scold you after that. It proves that I am a pure and good girl who values the relationship between men and women - but you have to get my consent before you do anything. Do you have any emotional intelligence
I don't know if Jiang Yashuang heard the resentment in her heart. After a stalemate for a while, he whispered: "I'm offended." He leaned over and hugged Qiu Yilan horizontally!
Although the two of them had hugged each other tightly before due to circumstances, at that time they were all focused on not being discovered and couldn't be charming at all.
This was the first time Jiang Yashuang took the initiative to hug Qiu Yilan. Although there was a reason for it, the girl's soft body snuggled tightly into his arms because of the sudden volley, the subconscious action of grabbing his clothes, and the faint fragrance of virginity curling up from the tip of her nose. , made him feel his heart beating wildly, and he was stunned for a moment after picking him up.
"If you dare to tell me..." Qiu Yilan's gnashing of teeth sounded imperceptibly in his ears - this was the first time in two lives that he was so close to a man who was not a blood relative. Normally, with Qiu Yilan's determination, it wouldn't be difficult to adjust quickly, but tonight she was hit one after another, which made her unavoidable. Seeing Jiang Yashuang lose her composure now, she also felt very embarrassed.
So she pinched Jiang Yashuang decisively to cover up, "Did you hear that?!"
"Am I that stupid?" Jiang Yashuang woke up after she pinched him, calmed down, smiled awkwardly, and walked towards the high wall.
Behind the wall of the Xihe Palace is a forest that occupies a large area. It is full of flowers and trees during the day, but it is eerie and eerie at night.
"The road from here to your yard is very remote, but you're not afraid of coming here at night?" Jiang Yashuang walked sideways from time to time to avoid the branches from sweeping up Qiu Yilan. Summer clothes are thin, and after a while, both of them can feel each other's body temperature through their clothes. The silence and darkness around them seem to be brewing some kind of ambiguity. Inexplicably, Jiang Yashuang felt a little dry in the mouth, and he suppressed it. He asked in a panic and had nothing to say.
Qiu Yilan snorted: "What's there to be afraid of in a remote place? Stirring in the bustle is what kills people!" How many people in the past life begged for a remote place where there were no people and no zombies, but they couldn't get it!
But Jiang Yashuang's words had a different meaning in Jiang Yashuang's ears. He was silent for a while and said: "I know that although your situation is better than before, you still have to guard against all kinds of hidden arrows, and you will inevitably have to think too much when encountering trouble. It’s just that I want to marry you, but I really don’t have any intention of taking over the Xihe Palace’s property. Back then, my grandfather once said that the heritage of the Xihe Palace and the Ruan family were acquired by our ancestors who sacrificed their lives on the battlefield. Our Jiang family also started from the army. Although I have no friendship with the Qiu and Ruan families, I still believe that things should harm their own kind. There are so many places in the world where we can take advantage, so we don’t have to bully the orphans and the elderly. "
Qiu Yilan was about to speak when Jiang Yashuang suddenly stopped and quickly stepped back. At the same time, Qiu Yilan was hugged by his left arm from horizontal to one-handed; There was a flash of cold light, and a soft sword as clear as blue water was pulled out with the backhand, pointing directly behind the tree not far ahead: "Who is it? Come out!"
The two of them were wondering if Qiu Mengmin was really jumping over the wall, but the next moment, the young man in black clothes came out from behind the tree and almost scared Qiu Yilan to death: "Bousin, cousin, cousin?! "
The cold moonlight shining through the gap between the trees illuminated Ruan Qingyan's face. There was no expression on his face, but there was an endless storm in his eyes: "Before I do anything, you'd better tell me clearly what is going on!"
"Cousin, you must believe me, this is a misunderstanding..." Qiu Yilan was interrupted by Ruan Qingyan, who pulled out a long knife from his waist and said, "I'm not asking about you!!!"
After Jiang Yashuang recognized Ruan Qingyan, she lowered the tip of her sword. Seeing this, her eyes darkened slightly and she said calmly: "Princess Ningyi was accidentally injured just now and can't come back over the wall, so I'll send her off."
"In the middle of the night, why is my sister not in my boudoir, but in your place?! You must be coveting my sister's beauty, deceiving her when she is young and ignorant, and seducing her!" Ruan Qingyan's eyes were split, "I wanted to give you a life that doesn't have to be so painful. It’s a long-term way to die. Since you avoid telling the truth, I will skin you alive tonight!”
Before he finished speaking, the long knife was rolled out like a strong wind!
Jiang Yashuang swung his soft sword continuously, and several sword flowers appeared to block it. He frowned and shouted: "My sister went to find me for a reason..."
"I'm just being forced by you!" Ruan Qingyan was not in the mood to talk to him now, and said through gritted teeth, "How dare you insult my sister - I will let you know in a moment what it means to be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts!"
Qiu Yilan, who had limited mobility and was tightly held in Jiang Yashuang's arms, could only watch the constant flash of swords and swords. She tried to explain: "I have nothing to do with him! Cousin, he really is Just send me back!"
"Shut up!!!" Ruan Qingyan roared with veins on his forehead, "What are you afraid of him for! Look, I'll kill him right away!"
I'm not afraid of him at all! It’s you I’m afraid of now!
Qiu Yilan was about to continue explaining when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark shadow behind Ruan Qingyan. She subconsciously blurted out: "Cousin! Watch your back!!!"
"Princess Ningyi, which side are you from?!" When she called Po Xingzang, the dark figure knew that the sneak attack was impossible, so he showed up angrily, raised his sword and entered the battle, while complaining, "I didn't see Jiujiu because Is it because your cousin has the upper hand?"
"Bago?!" Jiang Yashuang was startled this time and asked in confusion, "Why are you here?! Didn't you go back to your room?"
