The princess's little white-faced concubine

A fire ignited in a dilapidated temple outside the city of Kyoto that had not been inhabited for a long time. The temple was very quiet, except for occasional "cracking" explosions of branches being burned by the flames and the voice of a woman.

"Ling, let me go find the princess. How can you rest assured that the princess is missing now." Yi Qiu paced back and forth anxiously.

Ling just sat calmly by the firewood and watched Yiqiu dangling in front of her eyes, "Master is protected by someone, I have no choice but to wait here if I don't receive orders."

"Wait for the order, wait for the order, you have the skills to send messages back and forth, so you can't bring the princess back?"

Concerned about chaos, Yiqiu is a little anxious this time.

Ling Na's unchanging expression finally changed, but he just frowned slightly: "Master is not an item."

Yi Qiu was stunned speechless by this sentence, glared at her and sat down on the haystack, casually picked up the wooden branches on the ground and scratched them on the ground.

"I know I have nothing to say to you, Bing Tuozi."

Ling's arm by his side trembled slightly and then calmed down.

"Why did you save me? You were supposed to protect His Highness at that time, obviously you were the closest person." Yi Qiu threw away the wooden branch in her hand, buried her head in her knees, her words were full of self-blame.

Ling muttered softly: "It's instinct to save you..."

"What did you say?"

"I mean..." Ling frowned and thought for a moment, then said lightly: "The most dangerous person at that time was you, and besides, there are people who protect the master secretly."

"Oh, so it is."

"drive!"

The sound of wheels rolling across the ground came from outside the temple. After a while, the coachman stopped the carriage, and the horse neighed.

"Who is it?" Yi Qiu got up and wanted to go out to check, but was stopped by Ling.

"I'll go and see." After saying that, she grabbed the broken blade and got up to go out to check.

After a while, Ling came in with two people, and the fire light shone on the faces of the two people behind her. Yiqiu clearly saw that it was the person she had worried about for so long, and the weight in her heart was relieved.

"Princess! This servant has not taken good care of you. You..." She ran to Wei Zhaojin and started crying, then checked whether Wei Zhaojin was injured, and frowned, "You have lost weight these few days."

Wei Zhaojin was already thin and looked frail, but now she is even more skinny, which makes people feel distressed.

Wei Zhaojin picked up the juan handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of Yiqiu's eyes, and said with a smile: "You girl, what are you crying for, I'm not doing well?"

"Your Highness, I am just happy."

"Stupid girl."

Ling automatically retreated to the side, as if it had nothing to do with her, she was just a servant waiting for orders.

Jiang Zhichu noticed her, walked over with a smile, grabbed her shoulders, and wanted to pull her over: "Who is this little brother?"

Who would have thought that Ling Ke ignored her kindness, raised his hand and turned Jiang Zhichu's arm and twisted it away.

"Pain, pain, pain! Ah Jin, save me, save me." Jiang Zhichu cried out to Wei Zhaojin for help in pain, his eyes were red.

Wei Zhaojin chuckled and said, "Ling, let go of Mr. Jiang, Mr. Jiang's small body can't bear it."

After hearing this, Ling threw her out.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Zhichu rubbed his arms aggrievedly, with resentment on his face.

Yiqiu stared at her and suddenly thought of something, and said ruthlessly, "What did you call Your Highness just now?"

"Ah..."

Just as Jiang Zhichu was about to speak, he saw Yiqiu's fierce expression and swallowed it back.

"Ah...Your Highness."

"Speak up next time, or I'll pull out your tongue!"

Jiang Zhichu felt a pain in the root of his tongue and immediately closed his mouth. He looked around pitifully, and found that no one would help her, so he squatted obediently in the corner.

Wei Zhaojin, who smiles but doesn't smile...Yiqiu who has a hot temper...and a violent Bing Tuozi who looks cold and doesn't know if he's a man or a woman...

God!Why am I so miserable!

Yiqiu took out some clean clothes from nowhere and threw them on the haystack for a rest by herself, without even thinking that they were prepared for Wei Zhaojin.

Jiang Zhichu didn't even think about sleeping there, so he just brought some hay and threw it beside him.

Yi Qiu kicked away the hay that Jiang Zhichu carried, and said rather disgustedly: "Get up, is this where you sleep?"

Jiang Zhichu opened his eyes wide in surprise, and asked in confusion, "Then where should I sleep?"

Yiqiu pointed to the door.

Jiang Zhichu froze in place, "Why?"

"Because you are a man."

It was only then that Jiang Zhichu remembered his identity, and helplessly looked at Wei Zhaojin for help, but Wei Zhaojin just smiled and said nothing.

She thought that Wei Zhaojin hadn't rejected herself these few days, so why did she pretend to be so suddenly? Could it be that a jade pendant can only be exchanged for a day of restful sleep?

Jiang Zhichu suddenly regretted it. If he had gone back with Wei Xian back then, he might have been eating meat and drinking in Lin Waner's tavern now... Not only is there no wine, no meat, no bed!

This time, Jiang Zhichu behaved well, and instead of rebutting, he went out with the hay directly. She didn't want to be dragged down again.

Fortunately, it's summer now, and the nights are a bit warm. It's too boring to be alone. She thought that since she couldn't sleep, she might as well chat with the coachman. After all, it's pitiful for the coachman to be alone with the horse, isn't it?

As soon as she said go, the door behind her was opened after she took a step, and Ling came out by herself and closed it carefully.

Jiang Zhichu leaned over: "You were kicked out too, brother?"

Ling just glanced at her indifferently. After all, the person who can call Wei Zhaojin like this and is still alive must be someone in the master's heart, and if not, it must be an unusual relationship.

"I am a woman."

"Ah... I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Jiang Zhichu opened the distance between the two, after all, he was still a man in the eyes of these people.

There was just one thing that puzzled her, "Woman? Then why did you come out?"

Ling also replied obediently, "Master is going to bed, we should avoid it."

...the air was silent again.

Jiang Zhichu secretly slandered, there really are people like me who are too funny to talk to.

"I'd better go chat with the coachman."

"Please."

...Why is it a bit cold.

On the second day, because of the addition of Yiqiu, Jiang Zhichu became a lot happier along the way. Generally speaking, some people bickered.

Two hours later, the carriage arrived in front of the capital city gate, where Wei Zhaojin changed to a carriage, and returned to the Princess's Mansion together with Yi Qiu, while Jiang Zhichu returned to Jiang's Mansion first.

"It feels so good to go home!" Jiang Zhichu sighed and stepped into the gate of Jiangfu.

The servant excitedly reported to Mrs. Jiang, but Mrs. Jiang did not behave as Jiang Zhichu expected, but was very calm. After the communication, Jiang Zhichu found out that Mrs. Jiang did not know that she was attacked at all.

Jiang Zhichu couldn't help feeling uncomfortable, after all, she pinned all her thoughts on her mother on Mrs. Jiang.

"You came back suddenly, so let's take a break for now." Mrs. Jiang looked at her lovingly.

But it seems a bit far-fetched, but Mrs. Jiang's concern is more genuine.

Jiang Zhichu swallowed the food in his mouth, and said: "No mother, I'm a little tired, I'll go to rest in a while, I'll go see Wei Xian later."

"How many ranks have you been promoted this time?"

Jiang Zhichu was shocked, so this is what Mrs. Jiang cares about?

She immersed herself in eating the rice in the bowl, and said perfunctorily, "I don't know, maybe I won't be promoted."

"That's it..." Mrs. Jiang's tone was a little disappointed.

The old lady Jiang beside him lovingly stroked Jiang Zhichu's head, and comforted him: "It doesn't matter if you don't get promoted, I think Xiaochu's official position is very good, not tired!"

"mother……"

"I'm full, I'm going to rest first."

Jiang Zhichu interrupted Mrs. Jiang, stood up and bowed slightly to Mrs. Jiang and Old Mrs. Jiang, then turned and went back to the house.

After taking a bath, she was lying on the bed thinking about what had happened in the past few days, her thoughts wandered off when she thought about it, her eyes were full of Wei Zhaojin's appearance, and she fell asleep due to exhaustion after a while.

Wei Zhaojin was not as happy as Jiang Zhichu, and she could take a break after returning home. After washing and dressing up, she got into the carriage and headed for the palace.

When the emperor saw Wei Zhaojin, he put down the memorial in his hand, and greeted him cordially: "Come, come, imperial sister, sit down quickly."

Wei Zhaojin slightly knelt down and saluted: "Chenmei sees Your Majesty."

The emperor hurriedly helped her up, and said with a big laugh, "Li Zhong, hurry up and bring the top-quality Longjing that was tributed in the Jiangnan area a few days ago, and give it to the imperial sister to taste."

After finishing speaking, the emperor seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly patted his forehead, "It's broken, I forgot that the imperial sister Fang returned to Beijing from the Jiangnan area."

Wei Zhaojin smiled and said: "Don't bother, Brother Huang, although my sister has gone to the south of the Yangtze River, she has never tasted this Longjing, so today I will feast on my mouth here with Brother Huang."

The emperor nodded after hearing this, and Eunuch Li immediately retreated, and after a while, two cups of hot tea came.

Wei Zhaojin took a sip and then praised: "The taste is sweet, the tea soup is clear and green, pleasing to the eye, brother emperor, this is the top grade."

After the emperor heard this, Long Yan was very happy, and ordered Li Gonggong to prepare some for Wei Zhaojin and bring them back to the mansion.

"Sister, I won't go around with you anymore." The emperor suddenly became serious, "I don't care whether the person locked up in Dali Temple is the real murderer, I only care about what this matter has to do with King Kang."

"Brother Huang, there is indeed another person behind this case, but who this person is and what his purpose is, everything is still unknown. Before we have the initiative, we should be careful not to startle the enemy."

"According to you..."

"Lead the snake out of its hole."

-

Jiang Zhichu slept for two or three hours at first, and when he opened his eyes, the sky was already fiery red.

Qingning waited for her in the tavern for a long time before seeing Jiang Zhichu when night fell.

"You still remember to come to me." Qing Ning cast an unhappy look at her.

Jiang Zhichu scratched his head, and said fawningly, "I went back home and took a rest for a while, I overslept, I'm sorry."

over slept?

Qing Ning's eyes widened, her cheeks were bulging with anger, and just about to explode when she heard Lin Wan'er's voice, she immediately turned into a cute little rabbit.

"Sister Wan'er."

Wan'er... sister...? !Jiang Zhichu had a black question mark on his face, is this still the Qing Ning she knew?

When Lin Wan'er heard Qing Ning calling her, she looked towards her, and just in time to see Jiang Zhichu, anger arose in her heart.

Wei Xian said that the matter was so serious that day, she thought about it and spent money to find someone to find it, but the people she found were all killed one after another, so she spent a lot of money for it, now she has figured it out, and sent Most people in the past were killed by those who protected Wei Zhaojin as assassins.

Damn Wei Zhaojin!God damn Jiang Zhichu!Return my wife's money.

"Jiang Zhichu!" Lin Wan'er jumped angrily, rushed over and grabbed Jiang Zhichu's ears.

"You still have the nerve to come back!"

Jiang Zhichu hurriedly begged for mercy: "I was wrong, sister, I was wrong."

"Don't call me sister! My old lady will never be. You ****, you still have the nerve to come, you ****."

Lin Wan'er tugged at Jiang Zhichu's ear and scolded for a long time, she didn't let go of her red hot ear until she spit out all the anger in her heart.

Jiang Zhichu rubbed his ears aggrieved, but the scolding was not in vain, Lin Wan'er still invited her to a meal, a feast of wine and meat!

"Hey, didn't you say that your sweetheart is in the capital? Who is it?" Qing Ning kowtowed melon seeds and drank tea, looking like a gossip old lady.

Hearing this, Jiang Zhichu's face suddenly turned pink, stuttering like a big girl waiting to be married.

At this time, Lin Wan'er ordered the dishes and joined their conversation, grabbing melon seeds in her hand.

"Ouch! Don't look at me, I'll tell you what to say."

Jiang Zhichu beckoned, and the three of them leaned their heads together.

"Actually, you've seen this person, Qingning."

"Who?"

"Yes, yes, who is it?" Lin Wan'er echoed.

"Princess."

She seemed to have made up her mind, and it took extra effort to say these three words.

"Damn, Eldest Princess, who am I?" Lin Wan'er didn't take it seriously, but the smile froze on her face.

"Princess!"

The author has something to say: Lin Wan'er: ***************

Jiang Zhichu: Terrible

I'm planning to abuse you a little bit.
