Chapter 11: I cheat (1)

The action against the queen-to-be who was disliked by the aristocratic family was Qiu Jiang's gift to Princess Yujing, in order to express "we are together" and "look, I am fully capable of killing her".

As expected, Princess Yujing was very concerned about this, and asked when they met, "Why did you touch Xie Changyan?"

She is a beautiful woman with glamorous facial features and smooth skin. It is said that her secret of maintenance is to collect yin and nourish yang. After the death of her son-in-law, she had an affair with many young generals. close relationship.

From this point of view, she is quite similar to Cheng Guo's third princess, Yishu.

Such women all have one characteristic in common—ambition.

Or to put it more bluntly - desire.

For a person with extreme desire, masculinity alone is not enough to satisfy him, and he must have even bigger schemes.

She knew Princess Yishu's plan and wanted to be the empress of Cheng Kingdom. What about Princess Yujing? Playing spring and playing spring, changing "Zou" into "spring", isn't it just the meaning of "stealing the sky and changing the sun"?

In other words, it is not enough to just change the queen, but also the emperor?

Although Mrs. Ruyi did not tell her the specific content of "Playing Spring", she was only asked to assist the eldest princess after entering Beijing. But Qiu Jiang lived in Caomu for half a year, and he also listened to some gossip in Beijing. For example - Princess Dachang does not get along with King Yan. The aristocratic family also complained about King Yan's behavior in the past two years. Another example—Princess Huiwei, the daughter of Princess Dachang, likes Feng Xiaoya.

Therefore, Qiu Jiang concluded that the reason why the aristocratic family dared to move their idea to change the queen must have something to do with Princess Yujing. She purposely set up a tripping rope to scare Xie Changyan, secondly, mainly to test Yujing.

And Yujing, sure enough, was fooled, and took the initiative to mention Xie Changyan.

Qiu Jiang added a spoonful of water to the brazier, and lazily said, "I heard that she is Dayan's future queen, so I couldn't help but take a look."

"Since you want to see, why don't you do it thoroughly and let her die?"

Qiu Jiang said seriously: "To kill her now is just to kill a young girl; if I do it in the future, I will kill Dayan's queen. I will not kill the untouchables."

Princess Yujing sneered: "I'm afraid you won't have a chance in the future."

Qiu Jiang's eyes flickered, trying to entice her to tell more clues, so she complimented, "With you here, how could there be no chance?"

Princess Yujing thought of something, and changed the subject: "Your Majesty's security is getting stricter."

"Isn't this exactly what you wanted, princess? Your Majesty thought it was done by the aristocratic family, but the aristocratic family was frightened. The two sides will fight to the death. At that time, you will be the winner." Qiu Jiang continued to test.

Princess Yujing's gaze turned cold: "I don't want Li, I just want him to die!"

Interestingly, this person is Zhang Hua's aunt, who is also a member of the royal family, but instead of helping her own nephew, she joins forces with outsiders from the family to kill Zhang Hua. King Yan, King Yan, your situation is not much better than that of Cheng Wang Minggong.

Thinking of this, Qiu Jiang smiled: "Don't worry, Your Highness. Since Ruyi Gate has accepted your mission, it will definitely let you—Ruyi." The last two words were extremely ambiguous.

Princess Yujing stared at her with a deep expression: "But Feng Letian will not die, and His Majesty will not lose."

Very well, they also plan to deal with father-in-law. Qiu Jiang slowly added another spoonful of water into the copper basin, and said calmly: "That old fox is more treacherous than his son. His son has no flaws, but he is full of flaws. He doesn't know where to start..." At this point , frowning slightly, suddenly moved.

Qiu Jiangfei went over and kicked the door open, caught the person who was eavesdropping outside, and threw him beside the brazier.

The man fell to the ground with a groan, and the folder in his hand scattered, hanging all over his body in a mess.

I saw that she was sixteen or seventeen years old, and there was a mole under her left eye, like a tear that was about to fall, so when she raised her eyes to look at people, she looked very pitiful, and she even had an indescribable coquettish attitude.

Qiu Jiang tsk tsk in her heart, this obsequiousness is not born, it is trained. Who is this person? Is the eldest princess raised Mei Nu?

"Does the wall sound nice?" she asked.

The girl immediately knelt up and looked at Princess Yujing beside her: "Your Highness, I didn't! I didn't eavesdrop! Please believe me, I really didn't!"

"Then what are you doing outside the door?"

"I, I... Uncle's death day is approaching. I made a list. I wanted to let His Highness see if it was suitable. When I walked to the door, I saw that there was no light in the house, so I hesitated for a while. I just made a list. Really. I didn't hear anything!" The girl stepped forward and grabbed Princess Yujing's hem, crying, "I didn't eavesdrop, what I said is true!"

Qiu Jiang was a little surprised. It turned out that it was not a servant girl, but the niece of the deceased son-in-law. She came here as a secret, so no third person should know about it, but now that this woman breaks her to meet Yujing, it stands to reason that she should be killed to silence her. But judging by Princess Yujing's expression, I'm afraid she's not willing to let her die...

Qiu Jiang then smiled: "I won't kill the untouchables. Your Highness can decide for himself. Let's go." After saying that, she turned around and left, hearing the girl crying and begging, Princess Yujing sighed softly, and said: "Get up..."

Well, it seems that Princess Yujing's weakness is not Hui Wei, but... that dead consort.

For the sake of that son-in-law, Princess Yujing did not hesitate to seek cover from Ruyimen, even the people of the Zhiguo family. Really poor people must have something to hate.

When Qiu Jiang came out of the princess mansion, he saw snow all over the ground, and for some reason, he suddenly felt a little dazed.

The snow is as white as brocade, and no one enters or exits the Princess Mansion after nightfall, so the fluffy snow blanket is very complete without a trace.

For a moment, his eyes were full of confusion, and he couldn't see where the road was.

"After entering the snowfield, people have to throw a bright object forward as a target when walking, so as not to be confused by the endless white and lose their direction." A voice suddenly sounded in her mind, shaking her heart.

"What you have to do is a very difficult, lonely, incomprehensible, and hopeless thing. You will encounter many temptations, difficulties, life and death. And you can only face it alone, no one can help .”

"If your heart is a little weak, you will be lost."

The voice gradually faded away, and the snow in front of my eyes was falling more heavily, like a temptation, but also like a warning.

Qiu Jiang took down the beads, threw them on the road, and walked towards them firmly.

Mission must be completed.

Must become the next Mrs. Ruyi.

For her, from the very beginning, there was only a journey and no return.

***

Qiu Jiang returned to Si'er's residence, but Si'er was not there.

She didn't take it seriously, and fell asleep on Si'er's couch. This place is very safe, there are heavy guards below, and no one knows that the old king of Yan, Mo Yin, lives here in seclusion, and she only learned about such a fairy residence through Sier's light.

It has to be said that Mrs. Ruyi's chess piece is arranged very well. The only shortcoming is that Si'er is stubborn and not good at words. But if it weren't for this, Mo Yin wouldn't have chosen him among so many followers back then.

After falling asleep this time, it was the next day when I woke up again.

Outside the house came the sound of chopping firewood in an even rhythm, rising and falling, very pleasant to hear.

Si'er has a little hysteria, for example, onions must be cut into one inch before eating, firewood must be chopped into eight even pieces, and hands must be clean... It is really amazing to be able to live in Ruyimen and become one of the seven treasures. easy.

Qiu Jiang pushed the door out while stretching, "You're back!"

Si'er stretched out a finger between swinging the ax and pointed to the door.

Qiu Jiang looked sideways, only to find a writing brush stuck in the door, she took out the writing brush, opened the barrel, and took out a note from inside, which read: "Shafeng Letian."

Qiu Jiang narrowed her eyes.

This is Mrs. Ruyi's pen, which means "handwriting", and the hair is a chicken hair, which means "urgent", that is to say, this task must be done quickly.

When she met Princess Yujing last night, Yujing mentioned that "Feng Letian will not die, and the King of Yan will not fall." Today, she received Madam's order, and it seems that they really couldn't wait. I heard that Yan State's plan to play the spring has been brewing for many years, why did it start to take action this year? What made them feel the time was right? Because she came to Yujing? Or is it because... Xie Changyan also came to Yujing? !

Qiu Jiang threw the note and pen into the stove and burned them, then turned and left.

Si'er hesitated to speak, but finally did not make a sound.

He continued to cut the remaining wood, then walked into the kitchen, lifted the lid of the pot, and there were meals for two neatly placed inside.

Si'er stared at the food for a long time, and finally ate both portions silently.

***

Feng Letian is no longer in Taohe Villa.

Not only him, Feng Xiaoya and his followers also disappeared.

Taohe Villa was empty, except for the two missing jars of wine in the cellar, there was no trace of anyone's presence. Qiu Jiang wanted to drink two more jars of wine, but was worried that the smell of the wine would leak his whereabouts, so he had to give up.

"I'll drink with you when I have a chance!" She said regretfully to a wine jar in a cellar.

And when she returned to Caomuju, Feng's father and son were still not there, listening to what people said, they were actually missing.

Could it be that Feng Xiaoya's backlash was too serious, so his father sent him to the doctor?

Qiu Jiang sneaked into Feng Xiaoya's yard while meditating. It's rare that the little fox and the old fox are not here, so when will we wait if we don't check at this time?

She flashed into Feng Xiaoya's study.

The study room is huge, but it is full of sundries. All kinds of qin, se, xiao, and sheng are placed on the shelves in a dazzling array. At first glance, one might think that they have entered a musical instrument store. The most outrageous thing is that they also saw konghou and chime bells.

It seems that everyone in the world knows that he is elegant and fine in rhythm, and it is not a lie to have all kinds of musical instruments at his fingertips. I don't know how he learns music with such a body.

In the corner is a low cabinet with a height of half a person, and books are densely stuffed on it. Qiu Jiang casually flipped through a few books, all of which were sheet music.

Qiu Jiang turned around and came to a conclusion: Feng Xiaoya didn't read much, and there wasn't a single book in the study except music scores.

There is a small door on one side of the study room, and when it is opened, there is Feng Xiaoya's bedroom inside.

There is a string of copper bells tied to the head of the bed, which must be used to summon followers when the body is unwell.

Next to the bed is a set of low cabinets, which are full of medicines.

Besides, she also saw a pot of **** flowers.

This pot of **** flowers was placed next to the pillow. Although it was cold winter, but because of the warmth of the earth dragon growing in the house, it was blooming brightly, and the flowers were pure white and flawless. There is also a copper medicine pestle next to the pillow, which is much smaller than ordinary medicine pestles, and the word "Jiang" is engraved on one end of the pestle.

Qiu Jiang's heart trembled slightly - this is probably something Jiang Jiang used when he was a child.

It is obvious that someone often plays with it.

Thinking of the picture of Feng Xiaoya holding this object in memory of Jiang Jiang after so many years, even if she thinks she has no intention, she can't help but feel a little crazy.

At this moment, she heard footsteps, immediately put down the pestle, jumped up, jumped onto the beam, and leaned on it.

After a while, the door was gently pushed open, and a person came in, but it was Meng Buli, with a yellow civet cat squatting on his shoulder.

Qiu Jiang held her breath.

Meng Buli didn't notice her, but went straight to the cabinet and took out a windcloak, the cat on his shoulder jumped onto his back the moment he bent over, Meng Buli turned around and hugged it with a smile—

Qiu Jiang said inwardly that something was wrong, and shrank back again.

But Meng Buli didn't look up, hugged the cat, and went out with the wind cloak.

Qiu Jiang made a decisive decision and immediately rolled over and fell to the ground. This wind cloak is naturally for Feng Xiaoya, if you follow Meng Buli, you will know where Feng Xiaoya has gone.

She chased it out.

Meng Buli came to the stable alone, led a horse away. Qiu Jiang didn't dare to get too close, but he couldn't be left too far by the horse. After chasing him very hard, he cursed Yan Guo's winter in his heart for the hundredth time.

Fortunately, Meng Buli's destination was not far away, and he arrived within half a cup of tea. He stopped outside Zhizhiju, but didn't go in. Instead, he tied his horse under a tree and jumped over the fence by himself.

Could it be that Feng Xiaoya is hiding in Zhizhi? Qiu Jiang became more and more suspicious, and immediately jumped over the wall and sneaked in.

Zhizhiju was in chaos.

The servants were packing their things in and out, and occasionally a few whispers drifted into her ears—

"How dare Miss Xie do this? I'm not afraid of beheading!"

"But His Majesty didn't kill her, and even agreed to Mrs. Xie's request to divorce her..."

what? What? ! Qiu Jiang was taken aback.

"It's fine if you retire. I thought she wasn't qualified to be the queen of our Dayan. She behaved rudely and laughed and laughed all day long. She didn't look like a lady."

"Stop talking, everyone is leaving, so save some morals."

"I'm seeking truth from facts. Do you think she looks like a queen? And Mrs. Xie, she's so petty..."

Qiu Jiang didn't listen any more, and went to Xie Changyan's room gropingly.

The boudoir window was half open, and there were two people inside. One is a woman in her early thirties, with simple clothes, white hair on the temples, and two deep nasolabial folds on her face, her face looks a bit miserable; the other is a girl who is about the same height as the woman.

Qiu Jiang squatted down between the branches of the tree, thinking, this is Xie Changyan, but it is very different from what he imagined.

When I heard her talking in the carriage before, I thought she was a cute and cute little girl, but I didn't expect her to be so sharp-edged, with deep-set eyebrows, neither sweet nor cute, with a bit of vigor. I really don't know how the Zhilan Xie family raised such a different species, and dared to withdraw the marriage contract of King Yan?

She didn't forget what Xie Changyan said to Zhang Hua, "Are my feet good-looking?" And Zhang Hua responded to her laughter very gently and intimately.

The two people who were still bored a few days ago broke up their marriage today. Why?

While packing up the things, the girl said to the woman: "Mother, you don't need to bring those, let's hurry up. While it's dark, go quietly, so as not to be surrounded by people."

The woman looked at the boxes in the room, and sighed rather reluctantly: "Forget it, they are all belongings outside the body. You can go."

Xie Changyan smiled brightly, picked up the two biggest bags and went out.

A dark shadow flashed in the corner of the wall, and Qiu Jiang recognized it as Meng Buli.

Why is Meng Buli so sneaky?

Fortunately, fortunately, she was very careful all the way and stayed far away, so Meng Buli should not have noticed.

Qiu Jiang fumbled and followed.

The carriage was prepared in the courtyard of Zhizhiju, Xie Changyan threw the burden into the carriage, and then helped the woman into the carriage, and the other two maidservants followed. In addition, all the servants lined up by the door to see off.

Xie Changyan waved at them: "I'm sorry to trouble you all these days, see you soon!" After saying that, he jumped on the shaft of the cart, took the driver's whip, and swung it himself: "Drive—"

The carriage crushed the ice and snow, and drove out of King Yan's former residence.

The lanterns swayed, shining bits and pieces of light on the white snow.

Qiu Jiang, who was watching this scene, couldn't help thinking that she might have witnessed a legend—

If it wasn't for Xie Changyan, any other woman would not dare and would not be able to resign the emperor's marriage.

And if it wasn't for Zhanghua, other emperors would not allow this kind of thing to happen.

It happened that such a girl met such an emperor.

This scene will eventually be recorded in the annals of history, and it will be earth-shattering.

So, the real reason behind it: the emperor lost, did the family win?

Qiu Jiang's eyes turned dark.

At this time, Meng Buli also took back his horse, and seemed to be leaving. Qiu Jiang decided to let go of Xie Changyan for the time being, and it was more important to find Feng Letian first.

What she didn't expect was that Meng Buli didn't give up following Xie Changyan, but went to help her arrange a hotel first.

Qiu Jiang chased for 20 li in the slippery and cold snow to the Weiling Ferry, and when he saw Meng Buli stopped outside the door of the largest inn, he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.

Meng Buli showed the token engraved with the crane totem to the innkeeper, the innkeeper's complexion suddenly changed, and he bent down and said, "The best room has been reserved, and I will lead you there."

But Meng Buli shook his head, took out a portrait painting from his bosom, and showed it to him: "Wait a minute, she comes to live."

The innkeeper wrote down the appearance of the person in the painting, and said: "Yes, it must be well-arranged."

Meng Buli nodded, found a corner in the hall and sat down, ordered a cup of tea, and pushed his hat down to cover his face.

Is he waiting for Xie Changyan?

The innkeeper told a waiter: "The distinguished guest will arrive soon, go and burn the earth dragon."

The clerk quickly responded, and Qiu Jiang took the opportunity to follow the clerk. From the back door is a yard, the snow has been swept away, revealing a wet bluestone road, winding to the next yard. It was a small courtyard with four rooms in total, and a rare plum tree was planted in front of the west room.

The clerk left after finishing his work, but Xie Changyan hadn't come yet.

Qiu Jiang took the opportunity to sit down on the couch in the west room, beat his sore legs, and couldn't help laughing at himself: "I've spent half a year planting flowers, but my ability to eat and save my life has deteriorated. This can't be done..."

His thoughts drifted to Feng Xiaoya involuntarily.

Where did he and his father go? Did he really leave due to illness, or did he hide on purpose when he heard that Ruyimen was going to attack them?

Feng Letian looks like a smiling face, but he has been able to sit in the Great Yan Dynasty Hall for 20 years. He is by no means a simple person. With his powerful connections, he might know that there is collusion between the family and Princess Yujing, so it is not surprising to hear the rumors.

Then, his disappearance is by no means a simple "hiding", it should be a counterattack. If I act recklessly, I may fall into the trap.

Also, is Xie Changyan's resignation the result of the family game, or the emperor's arrangement?

Qiu Jiang pondered, and decided to stay and get in touch with Xie Changyan. Anyway, Xie Changyan is only a thirteen-year-old girl, and she should be much easier to deal with than Feng's father and son.

She waited and waited for an hour before she heard footsteps coming towards her.

He leaned over to the window and took a look, and it was indeed Xie Changyan and the others who came.

She jumped up and flew to the beam to hide.

Xie Changyan first carried his luggage into the East Wing, and then walked into the West Wing after talking to his mother.

Qiu Jiang heard her laughing outside the door and said: "I know, I know, mother, you should rest first, and I will sleep too..." But as soon as she came in and closed the door, the smile on her face disappeared.

Not only did he stop smiling, but he also lowered his head, appearing very depressed.

Xie Changyan walked to the window, staring at the plum tree outside the window in a daze. The sunlight came in from the window, giving her a golden edge.

Qiu Jiang looked at her from above, and felt that she was like a pony that had not yet been tamed, with strong love and hatred in her eyes, even though she was in a daze, she could still see a little unruly.

"Is this... going to freeze to death?" Xie Changyan murmured suddenly, leaned out of the window, broke off a branch of a plum tree, held it in his hand and looked at it over and over again.

Qiu Jiang thought for a while, then jumped down and asked, "How do you know?" After saying that, he snatched the plum branch from her hand.

Xie Changyan quickly turned around and said in surprise, "You are?"

"You answer me first, how do you know that you are going to die?"

Although Xie Changyan was confused, he still answered obediently: "Dayan plums are expensive, because plum trees are difficult to grow, especially in the northern region where the winter is cold, and they cannot survive...Plum trees are afraid of the cold..."

It was the first time Qiu Jiang heard this saying: "Plum trees are afraid of the cold? Didn't they say that Yingxue is blooming in the cold?"

Xie Changyan smiled: "Plum trees are more cold-resistant than other flowers, but they are not pines and cypresses after all. After such a snowfall, the tree is too cold. In addition to the long drought before the snow, the water is not watered enough, and now the roots of the trees underneath are probably rotten." It's dried up."

Qiu Jiang thought, this little girl knows a lot about plants, so she should go to Zhizhiju to study for her, and she should go to Caomuju to plant flowers for her.

At this time, Xie Changyan asked again: "Who... are you?"

Qiu Jiang winked at her slyly, and then made a gesture of tripping the carriage and flying the carriage.

Xie Changyan was very clever, and immediately guessed the accident of Xing Chuan's carriage that night, and couldn't help but move his gaze towards the short table beside him.

Qiu Jiang quickly restrained her unrealistic calculations: "Hey, hey, if you act rashly, I'm afraid it's not safe."

"What do you want to do?" Xie Changyan blushed suddenly, and she was still a little girl, "I, I'm not the queen anymore!"

"I know. I don't kill untouchables. So you are safe now." Qiu Jiang looked at Mei Zhi, his eyes flickered, "Do you know anything interesting, tell me more."

Meng Buli rented an inn for her, and he would definitely leave after confirming with his own eyes that Xie Changyan was fine. So, it shouldn't be gone yet.

And since Meng Buli had decided to go back to Caomuju to get Feng Xiaoya's wind cloak before, he would definitely meet Feng Xiaoya.

As the saying goes, she can't find Feng Xiaoya, but she can let Feng Xiaoya find her.

Qiu Jiang decided to take the initiative to show up so that Meng Buli could see her, and went to report to Feng Xiaoya, and chat with this little girl who was about to become the queen of Dayan by the way.

Although the former Empress Dayan Zhun was young, only thirteen years old, she was really not an ordinary girl. She was flustered for a moment, but quickly calmed down and asked, "What do you want to hear?"

"Guess who I am. If you guess it, I'll give you a small reward. How about it?"

"What if you can't guess?"

"Then...kill your mother?"

Xie Changyan was shocked: "My mother is no longer ordered!"

Her face was full of anxiety and condemnation, "You said you wouldn't kill the untouchables just now, so why are you talking nothing now?" Qiu Jiang was very happy to see it.

That's great... at such a young age, so innocent and naive... It seems that Xie's family and King Yan have protected her very well.

Qiu Jiang was a little jealous, so she couldn't help but make her more anxious: "Is that so, then your mother will be arrested?"

"You!" Xie Changyan was obviously extremely annoyed, but he thought of something, sat down on the short table, and then stared at her.

Her eyes are very beautiful, shaped like crescent moons, with big and bright pupils, which makes her look very energetic, especially when she stares at people like this, she has an unyielding force.

Makes me want to tame her.

Qiu Jiang couldn't help thinking: Was he like this back then? It's no wonder that such a girl can't be a queen... She stretched out her hand and touched Xie Changyan's face: "Little girl, who taught you to look at people like this? It's so ticklish..."

Xie Changyan immediately opened her hand.

Qiu Jiang laughed.

Xie Changyan said: "Your monk's robe is old. It has been worn for half a year. Although it is very clean, the right sleeve has been mended again."

Qiu Jiang was startled, and hastily raised his sleeves, seeing the traces of sewing. She changed back to her original attire when she escaped from Caomuju. She walked around in monk robes. She has been traveling around for the past few days and didn't take care of changing them, so damage is inevitable. But the strange thing is that those places have been mended!

when? Who made up for it? Sier?

Xie Changyan said again: "The thread mending the sleeves is a good thread, but the handwork is very poor."

Qiu Jiang thought, then it's not Si'er. The fourth son suffers from hysteria, so he must have done a good job of mending. If it wasn't Si'er, who would it be?

It can't be Feng Xiaoya, can it?

"It's such a cold winter, you wear so little, but the hand that touched my face just now was very warm, which means that you are not afraid of the cold—you know martial arts. The Buddhist beads on your wrist are made of Cheng Guo's foot metal. Foot metal It is complicated to refine and extremely expensive, and it is only used for the edge when casting weapons, but you use it as beads."

Qiu Jiang was a little surprised—the little girl recognized Bing? ! Is the Yinzhou Xie family really that knowledgeable?

Xie Changyan continued to observe while observing: "I guess, it should be your weapon. If you used this bead to hit the horse that night instead of tripping the horse rope, I would not be alive now."

Qiu Jiang laughed, "Who said I'm going to kill you?"

"Yes. Because I'm a pariah."

Qiu Jiang thought, little fool, on the contrary, it is because of your special status that you cannot die...

"Although the soles of your shoes are full of dirt, they are all dry, which means that you have been in this room for at least half an hour—before me. Half an hour ago, it was almost when Meng Buli booked a room for me...you are following him here?"

Qiu Jiang said leisurely: "Is there any more?"

"You followed Meng Buli, you didn't want to find me, did you? If I was the target from the beginning, it would be much easier to follow me who doesn't know martial arts directly than to follow Meng Buli. You know Meng Buli, and you look like this...I think, I know who you are."

"Oh, who am I? Let me tell you, if you guess wrong, your mother will..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xie Changyan called out her name: "Qiu Jiang."

Qiu Jiang was taken aback. Is she so famous? Even the former queen-to-be knew this name, obviously it was a temporary fake identity...

Xie Changyan's expression was serious, and he frowned slightly: "I'm no longer a queen, and I'm worthless to you, but you're still wasting time here, delaying with me... You're on the run? And you're also trapped at the ferry, right?"

Although the guess was not completely correct, the little girl had tried her best. Qiu Jiang laughed: "Little girl, being so smart doesn't mean you won't live long."

Xie Changyan stared at her with burning eyes.

Qiu Jiang giggled, and reached out to touch her face again: "I told you not to look at people like this, it makes people unbearable..."

Xie Changyan opened her hand again.

Qiu Jiang withdrew his hand and blew on the place where he was beaten, "Why are you like that sick bird, you won't be touched..."

Xie Changyan said seriously, "I guessed right. What about the reward?"

Qiu Jiang's eyes flickered: "The reward is...this." He said and returned the plum branch to Xie Changyan.

Xie Changyan really looked dumbfounded. Seeing Qiu Jiang Dayue, just as he was about to tease him again, he suddenly heard a strange movement. She immediately threw the plum branch, flew up the beam, pried off a tile, and exposed a hole, but the man did not leave, and jumped back behind the post to hide in the rolled up curtain.

Her movements were extremely fast, so for Xie Changyan, who knew no martial arts, it was like disappearing out of thin air. The moment the plum branch fell, Qiu Jiang disappeared.

Xie Changyan was shocked, and searched around, but did not see Qiu Jiang.

At this time, the sound of a carriage came from outside the courtyard. Xie Changyan turned his head and saw Meng Buli, who was squatting on his shoulder with a little yellow raccoon, parked a completely black carriage in front of the courtyard gate.

Then, Jiao Buqi jumped out of the car, and carried Feng Xiaoya in with Meng Buli on a sliding pole.

Xie Changyan looked at Feng Xiaoya very curiously. Feng Xiaoya raised her head and saw the small hole on the roof where the tiles had been pried away. The corners of his lips curled slightly, and then he looked at Xie Changyan and said, "I'm here to look for Qiu Jiang. Excuse me."

Qiu Jiang behind the curtain raised her eyebrows, and it was as expected, if she didn't go to him, he would come to her.

Xie Changyan said somewhat cautiously: "No, don't disturb."

"If I see her again, please convey a word for me." Feng Xiaoya's voice paused slightly, and after a while, she continued, "I have the score she asked for. If you want to hear it, I will meet you at the old place on the first day of the first lunar month."

Qiu Jiang frowned.

Spectrum? Four Kingdoms? Isn't it fake? Why was it thrown out as bait again? And where is the old place? Caomuju or Taohe Villa? !

The most heinous thing is that even if it is fake, if you know it is a trap, you still have to follow his rhythm.

Qiu Jiang couldn't help biting her lower lip.

In my ears, Feng Xiaoya handed something to Xie Changyan and said: "Meeting ceremony. Your Majesty and I inherit what my father learned, and belong to the same school. Although your marriage contract is annulled, your teacher's name is still there. Counting, you are also my junior sister. If If you want something, you can send this Ling back with the letter."

Qiu Jiang's eyes narrowed—what does this mean? Do you think that the former queen-to-be has retired, and in a certain sense she has become an abandoned wife, so she is eager to save her "poor" fate?

Feng Xiaoya didn't say anything, Meng Buli and Jiao Buqi carried him away.

Xie Changyan turned back after reaching the gate of the courtyard. After entering the house, he looked at the crane feather that Feng Xiaoya gave her. Qiu Jiang went out from behind the curtain and snatched He Ling.

Xie Changyan looked helpless: "Why did you come back?"

Qiu Jiang looked at her, well, although she is still young, her facial features are very distinctive, she will definitely be a beauty when she grows up in the future, maybe she will really become Mrs. He's twelfth wife.

For some reason, a little bit of dissatisfaction, a little bit of jealousy, and a little bit of uncontrollable malice grew in my heart.

Xie Changyan... Your departure is due to the emperor's ruthlessness towards you, or his protection for you. Let me take a closer look.

There are still a few days before the first day of the first lunar month, my sister will play with you first.

Outside the Baixiang Inn, the carriage rolled over the snow and moved forward slowly.

Jiao Buqi handed a cup of tea to Feng Xiaoya, and said, "When Master Cai was talking to Miss Xie, Madam was hiding behind the curtain."

Feng Xiaoya raised her hand to take the tea, her eyes were full of exhaustion, "I know."

Jiao Buqi puzzled, "Why didn't you arrest him directly?"

"If she wants to run away, run away." Feng Xiaoya took a sip of tea and said confidently, "Anyway, she will definitely come back on the first day of the first lunar month."

The most important thing is that only by telling a clear time can she let her guard down and slack off.

And what he wanted was her slack.

Only when you are slack, will you have the opportunity to peel off the shell of the disguise and see the heart inside.

Only by grasping the heart is the real grasp of her.

"That Feng... Well, you heard what senior brother said, so I don't need to convey it." Xie Changyan said.

Look, he changed his name to Senior Brother so quickly!

"The sick bird never does superfluous things, and he is definitely not a person who values love and righteousness, but he gave you such an important crane feather... It shows that you will be of great use to him in the future... Could it be, Is the divorce a fake?" Qiu Jiang tentatively asked.

Xie Changyan looked confused.

Pack! You continue to pretend to me!

Qiu Jiang leaned in front of her and said with a smile, "Tell me secretly that your marriage contract with His Majesty is actually still counting, right?"

Xie Changyan stretched out his hand to **** back the crane feather, and said coldly, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"All right, all right, I know, it's just for the sake of Princess Snake Spirit's group."

Xie Changyan said in a deep voice: "I really don't know what you are talking about. You are not joking. And the marriage contract is a big deal, how can you change it day and night?"

Still pretending, little liar!

"But I can see that your eyes are full of reluctance."

Xie Changyan was startled.

"Let me just say, how can there be a woman who doesn't want to be a queen?"

Xie Changyan was silent for a while, and finally couldn't help but said: "What are you going to do? Why don't you leave? Brother Feng asked you to meet on the first day of the first lunar month, why don't you prepare?"

"What are you going to do? I'm not going."

Xie Changyan was surprised.

"As for why I still don't leave..." Qiu Jiang said, leaning forward and hugging her waist, the two sisters put their heads on her shoulders, "Because, I want to go to sea with you."

After saying this, she obviously felt that Xie Changyan's body became stiff.

Qiu Jiang kept his promise and went to the kitchen to borrow kitchen utensils that night.

The cook refused and was **** by her.

Qiu Jiang made a bowl of porridge in front of him, and said as he made it: "Fushen porridge, take new rice and soak it for half an hour, add water with Sanqi, rice with three water and seven, and add 10% milk. After boiling, turn off the heat , simmer for half an hour, remove the lid and add jujube and Ophiopogon japonicus to add color. There are three tricks, one, the best rice is Xiantao new rice; two, the best water is Huoyanshanquan; A bowl is perfect."

Qiu Jiang said as he poured the porridge into a cup and showed it to the cook. The cook stared at her blankly, not knowing what to say.

Qiu Jiang patted his face with a smile: "I lent you the kitchen, because I think highly of you. This is the exclusive recipe of Master Toothless."

The cook tremblingly said: "Since it's unique, exclusive, you, why did you tell me?"

"The old monk cherishes himself with his broom, is stingy, hides everything and does not spread it to the outside world. It is a heinous crime and he is not worthy of being a Buddhist disciple! I am helping him to spread the word and accumulate good deeds, so that the world can eat such delicious vegetarian food. Amitabha. "

Qiu Jiang said and went out with the porridge.

The cook looked at her with the eyes of a lunatic, and suddenly felt that his body was loose, but the rope that bound him was disconnected at some point. He quickly got up and wanted to report to the official, but he hesitated when he ran to the door, and finally returned to the stove, picked up a stick of charcoal and quickly wrote down the recipe.

Qiu Jiang walked into Zheng's room with a tray in his hand, made a big salute, and introduced himself: "Hello, Auntie. The little girl, Qiu'er, hit it off with Chang Yan at first sight, and I happened to be going to sea, so I made an appointment to go hand in hand. , please forgive me."

Mrs. Zheng was sitting across from Xie Changyan, and when she heard this, she gave her daughter a surprised look, then put down the thread, and returned a salute: "Young lady, you are welcome, we are destined to go together, please sit down."
