Chapter 204 - 205: Distrust - Marriage

Jiang Li stared at his hand blankly.
The jade pendant is intact, and the moonlight shines through the window, and it shines brightly and white with his hands. As if the civet cat is going to come alive too, he is like a glamorous and glamorous person walking out of a dark world, holding a deceptive token in his hand and handing it to him.
"This..." Jiang Li looked at him incredulously.
"You left this in the daytime." Ji Heng leaned back and said nonchalantly: "I forgot to return it to you." Seeing Jiang Li's delay in reaching out to pick it up, he put his jade pendant on the table. .
Jiang Li slowly held the jade pendant to his palm, and there was a lost and recovered joy from the bottom of his heart, and a hint of doubt. But her doubts were quickly overwhelmed, and a burst of blood came from Ji Heng's body. He was wearing red clothes, and he couldn't see anything under the moonlight, so he didn't know whether it was someone else's blood or his own blood.
He just didn't answer Jiang Li's question, so Jiang Li didn't know where he went or what he did. The only thing she can ask is: "Are you hurt?"
Ji Heng smiled and did not speak.
Jiang Li took out the pair of scissors from her sleeve and put it on the table. She looked like a kid who had done something wrong. She was a little nervous and hoped to make up for it. She said, "...I looked at this pair of scissors later. When it comes to the blood, I clearly stabbed that person...I stabbed you...You..."
Ji Heng smiled and looked at her, and said, "You still don't believe me, Ari."
Jiang Li was taken aback, she understood Ji Heng's meaning in a moment.
Ji Heng was by her side at the time. In fact, she knew in her heart that Ji Heng would make a move, but she still took out the scissors at that moment. She didn't expose all her weaknesses to Ji Heng, leaving herself a way out. She still doesn't fully believe in Ji Heng, even if she likes him a little bit.
These were all seen by Ji Heng.
She said: "I'm sorry..."
"It's not to blame you," Ji Heng interrupted her, and he raised his eyebrows: "You died once after all."
Jiang Li was silent. Ji Heng thought she was hurt by Shen Yurong and refused to trust others. This was to relieve her, but Jiang Li knew that besides Shen Yurong, there was also her distrust of Ji Heng himself. It may be that the image of Ji Heng that appeared in front of her at the beginning was unpredictable, but weighed the pros and cons. Even after getting along, she gradually realized that Ji Heng was not such a person. When she was in danger, even if Ji Heng In front of her, she would instinctively protect herself.
If Ji Heng is a very sensitive person, he will be disappointed because of this. If Ji Heng is not a sensitive person... he is not a fool, so naturally he understands.
Jiang Li's heart was a little depressed, but she still cheered up, smiled reluctantly, and said, "So, are you hurt? If..."
"No." Ji Heng stood up: "I'm fine, you can rest early." He wants to walk outside the house.
"Where are you sleeping like this?" Jiang Li asked.
"Don't worry about me." He just left this sentence behind and walked out.
Jiang Li still wanted to go out, but couldn't make any step. After a long time, the moonlight was hidden in the clouds, and the room was completely dark. There was a slight movement outside, and it seemed that someone was talking, probably Zhao Ke and Wen Ji. She was sitting on the bed with a thin bedding, and she was at a loss.
This may also be a good thing for her. If Ji Heng thinks that she is such a selfish, untrustworthy person, the connection between them will be slowly cut off.
In the end, it was fulfilled.
...
Outside the house, Zhao Ke lit Huozhezi, Wen Ji looked for Qingshui, and was cleaning the wounds of Ji Heng sitting on the stone bench.
His sleeves were pulled apart, revealing the scars on his arm. The scar seemed to be cut open by some sharp object, the wound was not long, but deep. Wen Ji slowly cleaned it up for him. Zhao Ke found a small medicine bottle as big as a palm from his bag. Wen Ji took it and sprinkled some powder on Ji Heng's wound.
Ji Heng didn't move at all, and didn't have any expressions, as if he couldn't notice the pain at all. Zhao Ke said: "My lord, are you hurt by your hands outside?"
He didn't know that Ji Heng's wound was not left by his hands, but Jiang Li was injured by accident. Just looking at the wound was a little strange. The shape of the wound did not look like a sword or a hidden weapon. It looked completely chaotic, as if it was a random man without martial arts. But the start is very heavy, but if a man tries his best, he won't stop at this point. Could it be a woman who worked with your own adult? Zhao Ke thought wildly in his mind, there will be no women in the king's soldier Mali. But if it weren't for the king's soldiers and horses, what other enemies are there around here?
Wen Ji helped Ji Heng bandage the wound. He was very familiar with what he did. Although he was a tall man, he did very meticulous work. Ji Heng took off his outer robe. Even though the red color did not bleed, there were some marks on it. If you look closely, you can still see it.
"My lord..." Wen Ji asked hesitantly, "Why do you want to go back?"
Wen Renyao and Lu Ji couldn't feel it, but Zhao Ke and Ji Heng could feel that Ji Heng suddenly left the carriage and turned back in the daytime, and the direction they came back was exactly where they came from.
Zhao Ke was speechless, he was also curious, but he didn't dare to ask this. Wenji was still bold enough to ask. Ji Heng didn't answer Wen Ji's words, but just looked at the wound on his hand, where Wen Ji bandaged it properly. He said, "Do your own thing."
He didn't laugh anymore, Wen Ji and Zhao Ke both felt stunned, knowing that Ji Heng was unhappy, and immediately said nothing. Went to vigil at the bedding place at the door just now.
Ji Heng sat on the stone bench with deep eyes.
He did what he shouldn't do.
...
On the second day, when Jiang Li got up, Wen Renyao was outside talking to Ji Heng.
When Lu Ji and Wen Renyao got up, they found Ji Heng there, which was very pleasantly surprised. After confirming that Ji Heng was safe and sound, they pestered Ji Heng to ask what he did to marry yesterday. Of course, Ji Heng did not answer. After making noise a few times, Wen Renyao became honest.
Jiang Li and Lu Ji greet Renyao, and Ji Heng also. They both tacitly understood each other, as if nothing happened last night. Everyone hurried on the road and got into the carriage. On the way, Jiang Li was more silent than before. If it weren't for Wen Renyao who kept looking for words to talk to her, Jiang Li could not even say a word along the way. This silence was seen from a distance by Wenren, and even Lu Ji asked about what happened to Jiang Li.
Jiang Li had no choice but to use her own thinking about how to deal with his father's questions after returning to Yanjing.
"What's the problem with this?" Wen Renyao said: "Just push these things on us. You were taken captive by Cheng Wang's men to Huangzhou, and happened to be rescued by A Heng. You asked to return Yan. Jing, but Ah Heng is too busy to find someone to you back to Beijing. You have to wait until now. Even if Jiang Yuanfu wants to say anything, it has nothing to do with you. You ask him to go to the government mansion to find Ah Heng, let Ah Heng talk to him."
Jiang Li: "..."
Wen Renyao really knows the truth about disaster.
"I don't know how Yan Jing is now." Lu Ji sighed.
"What is Yanjing City like?" Lin Yao asked, "Brother, are there many people in Yanjing City?"
"Of course." Wen Renyao said: "Yenjing City is much larger than Huangzhou, and the emperor lives in Yanjing City. The girls there are also beautiful, for example, your sister Jiang is a girl from Yanjing City, you say Are the girls in Yanjing City good-looking?"
Lin Yao was still young, and he probably couldn't tell Wen Renyao's "good-looking", but he was excited and a little nervous. He said, "Then we will stay in Yanjing City?"
"Uh..." Wen Ren choked away, and heard that he often traveled around, similar to Ye Mingyu. Lin Yao couldn't answer what Lin Yao said, so he had to say: "We will stay there for now, and I will take you out for more walks later. Go, actually Yanjing City is not so good..."
He talked for a while and said badly for a while, making Lin Yao puzzled. Jiang Li watched Wen Renyao's nonsense, and suddenly thought of something, and asked: "If we are on our current itinerary, the soldiers and horses of the king will be faster than us. When we arrive at Yanjing City, will it be possible? I met someone who became a king outside the city. Or when we first entered the city, when the king entered the city, there was chaos at that time. I'm afraid the city gate won't open. How do we enter the city?"
Ji Heng did not answer, but Lu Ji opened his mouth. Lu Ji patiently explained, "Ms. Jiang, this path we are walking will be a little closer than the other. Besides, we are in a hurry, and we will be more than a king. Arrive at Yanjing City earlier. As for the city gate, you don't have to worry about it."
Jiang Li felt relieved when he heard the words.
After that, as Lu Ji said, the journey went smoothly. After walking out of the most difficult mountain road, even the trails began to speed up. Never encountered any unexpected guests again.
By the morning of the seventh day, the city of Yanjing was already close at hand.
When I was in Huangzhou City before, I didn't feel that Jiang Li couldn't help but feel light when he was about to return to Yanjing City. It seems that Yenching has not been affected by Cheng Wang's soldiers, at least not seeing any strange people. However, there are a lot less people coming and going inside and outside the city gate. It may be that the people are still a little afraid. And the teenagers at the gate of the city are much more cautious than before. Everyone who passes by must be carefully checked.
Wen Renyao looked outside and said, "It seems that King Cheng hasn't hit here yet."
"That's fast too." Lu Ji said, jumping out of the carriage, holding the guide in his hand, and went outside and said something to the two teenagers defending the city. The teenagers did not check the inside and outside of the carriage carefully as before, but respectfully let go. Jiang Li guessed that Lu Ji did not conceal Ji Heng's identity and that it would be so smooth.
The carriage drove into the city gate.
Outside was the familiar hustle and bustle, Wen Renyao opened the carriage curtain for a half, let Lin Yao look at it, and said, "Look, this is Yanjing City."
It was a child who was immediately dazzled by the prosperity of Yanjing City. Lin Yao muttered, "Brother, the streets of Yanjing City are so wide, wider than our two roads!"
"That is," Wen Renyao was not a Yanjing native, but he also showed a look like You Rongyan, "otherwise how can I teach Yanjing the city?"
Jiang Li couldn't help but smile as they listened to their conversation between the young and the young. But when he ran into Ji Heng's eyes, he still smiled at the corners of his lips, as if he was just staring at Jiang Li. Jiang Li turned his head and turned sideways, avoiding his gaze, and followed Lin Yao to look outside. .
The streets are filled with sugar sellers, doughmen, jugglers, and the voices of storytellers, and there are full of voices everywhere. Compared to the messy and scorched-earth Huangzhou at that time, Yanjing is like a paradise. The wars, corpses, fires and fears are far and far apart, and they are two distinct worlds.
Jiang Li is also in a trance.
She was still thinking about whether to say goodbye to Ji Heng and the others here and go directly to the house. But this might even arouse Jiang Yuanbai's suspicion, some of which he wants to cover. But asking them to go to Jiang's house with them was a bit strange.
She went back to Jiang's house first, and Ye Mingyu would definitely get news soon. With the incident before, Jiang Yuanbai was afraid that she would not let her leave the house easily.
Just thinking about it, I saw Lin Yao grabbing the carriage window and reaching out. He seemed to be surprised when he saw the juggling outside. He stood up, his body was swaying, half of his body was outside the car window, Jiang Li was startled, and said: "Xiao Yao, come down, you are really dangerous like this!"
As soon as the voice fell, the carriage shook suddenly. I didn't know what was going on, as if the horses were frightened. The whole carriage shook violently, and then stopped abruptly. Lin Yao shook his body and fell out of the carriage.
Jiang Li exclaimed.
He was still a child, and he fell like this, he might be dead!
Jiang Li ignored the others and immediately ran out of the carriage. Outside the carriage, there were already a lot of crowds watching the excitement. No child's voice was heard. Jiang Li's heart was tight and could hardly bear to look. Zhao Ke and Wen Jicai would calm down the frightened horse.
At this moment, a soft female voice suddenly heard, and she said, "Whose child is this?"
Jiang Li looked up.
In front of her, stood a young woman, who was born very well, and she was almost too beautiful. However, in the beauty, there is a trace of heroism. She was dressed in red clothes on a horse. She was pretty and warm. She was not dressed like a Yanjing person. She held a riding whip in one hand and Lin Yao in the other. Lin Yao looked at Jiang Li in shock, and suddenly "wow" Burst into tears.
He reached out to Jiang Li: "Sister!"
"Is this your brother?" The woman said as she loosed her hand, Lin Yao stumbled towards Jiang Li, threw herself into Jiang Li's arms, choked, her body shivering, she looked terrified.
Jiang Li said, "Thank you girl for helping."
The woman raised her eyebrows and was about to speak, her eyes suddenly passed behind Jiang Li, and she suddenly stopped.
If Jiang Li realizes something, turn around.
Behind him, Ji Heng walked out.
Chapter 205 Marriage
Everyone who saw Ji Heng for the first time was afraid that he would be photographed by his appearance. This is true for men, and even more so for women.
This strange woman stared at Ji Heng without removing her eyes for a while. Jiang Li said in his heart that Ji Heng was not a person who likes to join in the fun, nor did he show special joy to Lin Yao. In such a situation, according to his usual temperament, he would never get out of the cart. But now, he took the initiative to walk in front of him. Jiang Li certainly wouldn't think that Ji Heng was doing this to protect herself, because there was no danger here, only a beautiful young girl.
Wen Renyao also ran out of the carriage and saw that Lin Yao was safe and sound. He was relieved and muttered, "My little apprentice, you are going to scare Master to death." He turned his head. I also saw this strange woman. She was taken aback for a moment, and then she rejoiced, and leaned forward with a smile: "This girl is beautiful and has such a narrow heart. It's really hard to ask the girl. The girl from which house will come to the house with a gift next day. Thank you for her life-saving grace to my disciple."
This person is here again.
The woman's gaze shifted from Ji Heng's face to Wen Renyao's face. She said: "No need." But for some reason, she paused and suddenly said, "Who are you?"
She said "you", but looked at Ji Heng again, it was clear that the drunkard meant not wine. Jiang Li has seen this kind of scene many times, and she obviously didn't care about it, but for some reason, she is gradually uncomfortable today.
It's just that no one answered her words. Ji Heng would not take the initiative to report to his family. Wen Renyao was afraid of causing trouble, so naturally he would not say much. Jiang Li was the young lady of the Jiang family. She disappeared some time ago and suddenly appeared. If she tells her whereabouts at this moment , I am afraid that there will be inexplicable rumors in Yanjing City. Therefore, the three of them were silent, and it was a bit strange to fall into the eyes of this woman.
At this moment, another person came and Jiang Li could see clearly that the reason why the carriage swayed violently was because a carriage came oncoming. The carriage was very luxurious. Compared to the one Jiang Li they were riding in, it was about two carriages driving relative to each other, and they stopped suddenly when they had trouble.
Someone got off the carriage, walked in front of the woman, and asked, "What's wrong with the feeling?"
The woman called "Zhiqing" shook her head.
Jiang Li looked down at the person who came down again. It was very strange. The five senses of this person were somewhat similar to those of the woman, perhaps some were related, but their temperament was completely different. He was dressed in white. Jiang Li had seen many gentle and polite men, such as Shen Yurong, the former Zhou Yanbang, Li Xian and others. However, the gentleness of this man seemed to come out of his bones. He was born with five senses. Junmei, there is a trace of righteousness in Junmei, and it is easy to see him in favor of him.
The appearance of this man and woman are very stunning, and they are not dressed like ordinary people, they are a bit too luxurious. Jiang Li searched in his head and remembered that there were such characters in Yanjing City. If there are such characters, they should have been talked about a long time ago, and they will not be anonymous.
The man also saw Ji Heng, was shocked by Ji Heng's face, and looked at Jiang Li, Jiang Li took the corner of his mouth and smiled at him. The man immediately replied with a smile, and it was comfortable to press. He said to the woman beside him: "Since there is nothing wrong, let's go first."
The two of them turned and walked to the carriage. After a few steps, the woman suddenly turned her head and walked to Wen Renyao, saying: "My name is Yin Zhiqing. If you want to thank you... come to the Yin family to find me. Right."
Although she was speaking to Wen Renyao, her eyes were still on Ji Heng. Ji Heng smiled, the woman bit her lip before turning to leave.
After she left, Ji Heng didn't say anything. He got into the carriage by herself, Jiang Li thought about it, and then returned to the carriage. On the carriage, Wen Renyao told Lu Ji what had happened, and said in a dancing gesture: "This girl took the initiative to say her name to me. She also thinks I am good, so she will take the initiative to tell it!"
Lu Ji gave him a white look.
There was no need for Lu Ji to speak, he knew what he meant by Wen Renyao. He was discouraged almost immediately, and said: "I know, she is here for Ah Heng..."
Jiang Li is a little dull.
The young woman named "Zhiqing", speaking of her appearance, is about the same as Xue Fangfei before. There are many beautiful people, but each has its own charm. Xue Fangfei is gentle and graceful, Jiang Li is clear and lovely, this is the feeling of appearance. However, this woman gave people a radiant feeling. When she stood in the crowd, people would involuntarily look at her.
This is so similar to Ji Heng, she and Ji Heng stand together, there is also an inexplicable fit.
"That woman claimed to be Yin Zhiqing," Lu Ji said, "Is there a big family named Yin in the city of Yanjing?"
Jiang Li also remembered that such an outstanding man and woman had never heard of a big family with the surname Yin in Yanjing City. Last name Yin... Last name Yin... She suddenly remembered something, she was surprised, and when she looked back, she was facing Shang Wen Renyao's surprised eyes.
Wen Renyao and her obviously wanted to go together.
"Could it be..." Jiang Li was dazed.
Ji Heng slowly raised the corners of his lips. He smiled and said, "Yin Zhan's children have already arrived in Yanjing City."
...
On the streets of Yanjing City, in the opposite direction to Jiang Li's carriage, another gorgeous carriage was racing.
In the carriage, the couple of men and women who had just spoken were uncertain and unsure of what they were thinking. After a while, she asked, "Zhi Li, you said those people... who are they?"
Yin Zhili shook his head and spoke gently: "The man in red just now has a different temperament from ordinary people. He is not an ordinary person. When he left, there was no such number one among the people mentioned by Dad. I don't know. What is his origin."
"It's not an ordinary person anyway." Yin Zhiqing murmured: "I've never seen such a person in the clouds."
Yin Zhili smiled and looked at her, without speaking, Yin Zhiqing suddenly returned to his senses, and found Yin Zhili's smile, gave him a push, and said, "What are you laughing at?"
"That man is indeed a rare figure in the world."
"Nonsense." Yin Zhiqing blamed him, "I just feel curious, and besides, I have never seen such a good-looking man. I thought you were the best-looking man in the world."
Yin Zhili is indeed very good-looking, and he is calm and gentle from his bones. Whoever sees him will never doubt that he is a gentle and upright good person. In comparison, the appearance of the man who just wore the red shirt was too gorgeous, and his lazy and faint smile showed a frivolous, both righteous and evil.
This is a very different man from Yin Zhili, but perhaps it is precisely because of this difference that Yin Zhiqing pays special attention.
"Appearance is just a skin." Yin Zhili said: "It's just that this man doesn't look like an ordinary person. You... pay more attention."
Yin Zhiqing gave him a sideways look. She was so sideways and her eyes flowed. Not only was it not terrible, but she showed an indescribable coquettishness. She said: "Of course I know that I don't have any other thoughts, but I am just curious. Didn't you see that beside the man, there are other women who don't look like brothers and sisters, maybe it is his... There are lovers."
She originally wanted to say "Madam", but when she came to her head, she changed into a lover. She was talking about Jiang Li.
"That woman is not an ordinary person either." Yin Zhili said.
"She doesn't look special, why is she unusual?"
"Being able to walk by the man's side is accustomed to it. It seems that he is not his subordinate. It can be seen that she has a very close relationship with that man. Even if she is not a lover, she is a person he trusts. She doesn't feel nervous or uneasy. The status between them is equal, why do you think she is not ordinary?" Yin Zhili answered with a smile.
He thought of the young girl standing next to the man in red. This man had such a grand appearance that everyone around him was almost invisible. However, this girl was not affected at all. She is so clean and unbelievable, it's that pure and clear temperament that makes her delicate face very vivid and very attractive.
Yin Zhili was taken aback, and suddenly realized that he was laughing without knowing it, and he couldn't help but shook his head. The girl looked nothing special, but she was really impressive. Perhaps the more there is nothing, the more yearning it is. The man's murderous aura was strong, but he converged in front of the girl, which showed that he valued the girl. And now he thinks of the girl's smile and feels particularly bright, it is precisely because that is what he lacks, the clarity and warmth from the heart.
He does lack that kind of thing.
Yin Zhiqing looked at him and said: "You can't do it..."
Yin Zhili smiled and said, "How come?"
"Then why did you just laugh." Yin Zhiqing said, but she quickly put the matter behind her mind, she said: "But you have your own opinions, and I won't say anything. Speaking... "She hesitated, "We have been to Jiang's house several times, why did Jiang Yuanbo keep away and not let us see that Jiang Er?"
Yin Zhili smiled slightly: "Maybe she is not in the house."
"Isn't it that I've found it back? If he didn't find it back, Jiang Yuanbai wouldn't use it to deceive us like that. This shouldn't be his excuse, but he doesn't want to agree to this marriage.
"Jiang Yuanbai has a cunning and suspicious temperament, so naturally he won't agree to it all at once, but it should be nothing when we meet. I just think that Miss Jiang Er may indeed have found it, but she is not in the house, so that Jiang Yuanbai can't let us see her."
Yin Zhiqing said: "No matter what idea he is fighting, he will always meet. You remember, no matter what, the marriage between you and Miss Jiang Er will always be done. This is my father's account."
"I know."
