Chapter 70: Chaffinch and Great Swan

At Xu's time, the door was knocked. Huaiyu opened the door guardedly, and he was relieved to see that it was not Jiang Shen outside.
Jiang Xuanjin looked at her with bad eyes: "Can your Highness forget the appointments?"
Huaiyu smiled dryly: "Something went wrong, it was not that I wanted to break the appointment."
"what's up?"
Looking behind her embarrassedly, Huaiyu said, "It's not easy to talk to the monarch about the daughter's house."
The daughter's house close to her also made Xu Chu brew. Jiang Xuanjin remembered the scene he saw today, and stepped forward and pressed the door.
"Hey, there should be nothing important in these two days, so let's postpone the discussion?" Huaiyu pressed against the door.
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at her: "Nothing."
"Why did you come in without discussing the matter?" Huaiyu muttered, "Avoid suspicion!"
Do you still know the word? Jiang Xuanjin smiled back and looked at her with her arms folded: "Why don't you avoid suspicion when you are with Lu Jingxing?"
"That's different." Huaiyu said, "Lu Jingxing didn't marry a wife. If he does, I will avoid it."
The words sounded inexplicably comfortable, Jiang Xuanjin looked calm, and hooked her finger at her: "Come out."
After hesitating for a moment, Li Huaiyu stepped out of the threshold and closed the door tightly.
"Do you want to help her?" Jiang Xuanjin asked.
Huaiyu raised her eyebrows: "How can I intervene in the housework?"
"Are you still embarrassed?" He sneered.
Li Huaiyu choked, think about it, he is shameless anyway, if he can do something to make the first brew more happy, that would be great.
So she asked: "What is your opinion?"
Jiang Xuanjin hooked her lips, took her back to her room, and closed the door.
"Second brother may not be merciless to second sister-in-law, but he has been used to being a since he was young, and there are always beauties around him." He put the door latch slowly, and he said, "Second sister-in-law has never been in dispute. The concubine is always crushed by the concubine."
Huaiyu frowned when she heard it: "Don't care about Jiang Shen?"
Jiang Xuanjin shook her head: "The beauties in his yard are all treasures."
Squinting his eyes, Huaiyu's tone sank: "This kind of romantic ghost really spoils the first brew."
"His Royal Highness wants to help her, there are two ways." Sitting next to her, he said, "One is to teach her the means, let her get rid of the concubine, and one person has the exclusive grace."
"The other one is to let the second brother give a letter of resignation."
The words came out. Huaiyu looked at him speechlessly: "Do you agree with them, too?"
Jiang Xuanjin shook her head: "Just tell your way, let your Highness make a decision."
How should she decide? This is a lifelong event for the first brew. Huaiyu held his chin in anguish, thinking, "I don't know them too well. Would you like to tell me more?"
"Okay." Jiang Xuanjin nodded as her eyes moved slightly.
The room was very warm, the fragrance was still burning, and the pillows and sheets were changed to bring them, which looked very clean. This person whispered Jiang Shen's past, his voice lingering, and she yawned in a short while.
"The stool is a bit hard. Your Royal Highness can go to the bed and sit." Jiang Xuanjin said politely.
The bed looked very soft, and Li Huaiyu was not polite with him, so he touched it, then sat down, moved his comfortably, and continued to listen to him.
After half an hour, Jiang Xuanjin stopped her mouth.
The person next to the bed leaned against his pillow and fell asleep deeply, his eyelashes closed under his eyes, and he didn't move.
The corners of his lips curled up, and he finally got up, like a fisherman at dusk, straightening the body of the caught fish. Covered her with a quilt.
Jiang Xuanjin didn't like the inn room at all, and didn't plan to sleep here at first. There are many documents sent from all over Ziyang. He sat on the bedside and read it quietly. He was in a good mood listening to the familiar breathing.
Second Young Master Jiang had no idea that he had been sold by his younger brother. He was sitting in Gu Luan's room, instead of reaching out to hug her as before, staring at somewhere in a daze.
Gu Luan asked: "The son has something on his mind?"
Jiang Shen paused, then smiled back to his senses: "Isn't it all about you?"
Gu Luan smiled, wrapped his neck and kissed his cheek lightly, let go of his hand wittily, and looked at him obediently.
Jiang Shen likes such a considerate and sensible beauty, but today, he didn't praise her, but asked: "Guluan, if I get close to Cixue in front of you, will you be unhappy?"
Gu Lu was stunned, a pair of Jianshui Qiu pupils were light and moving: "I can be content with my concubine, how can I be unhappy about it?"
"Then..." Jiang Shen looked down, "If you are upset, what would it be because of?"
Gu Luan smiled and shook his head: "You don't have to worry, you don't have to worry about your concubine's body.
Are you jealous? Jiang Shen looked at his fingertips in doubt.
The thin body trembled lightly, like a dying mayfly in the twilight. When he touched it lightly, she even shrank her pupils.
He has always disliked women being jealous and making trouble, but Xu Chuniang's appearance made him feel distressed.
It really hurts, like a fine needle, stirring the slightly astringent water, so that people's eyelids are all acidic.
Standing on the edge of the table slowly, Jiang Shen stepped forward.
Gu Luan was taken aback, and asked softly, "Is the son going to find his wife?"
"...No." Jiang Shen thought for a while, "I'll greet the old lady."
It's so late, the old lady should rest, what is his greeting? Guluan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and she shook her head slightly: "This place is a bit strange, and my concubine is really scared..."
As he said, he stretched out his hand and gently pulled his sleeves: "How about you accompany your concubine?"
Jiang Shen hesitated, and Gu Luan said generously and honestly: "If you really miss your wife, it's better to talk to you with your concubine. Between your daughter's house, you should always talk better."
"Who missed her?" Jiang Shen darkened his face when he heard it, "I said that I was going to greet the old man."
Gu Luan was startled by his roar, blinking his eyelashes, water came out.
Realizing that he was a little misbehaving, Jiang Shen stretched out his hand and pressed his eyebrows: "Nothing, it's not early, go to sleep."
"Good." Gu Luan looked down, wiped his tears, and served him to change clothes and rest.
Xu Chuyong sat alone in the room, still in a daze.
She is really so coaxing, every time Jiang Shen hurts her. As long as she coaxed her gently, she would treat her as if nothing had happened, and had no grudges at all.
The old man once praised her for her temperament, saying that she was gentle and virtuous, and she was a pretty lady.
But this kind of temper seems to have spoiled him. Anyway, knowing that she is so coquettish, so he hurt her again and again, and apologized again. Jiang Shen never felt distressed.
Guluan and Cixue are treasures. Only she, a mediocre person, is a grass.
With a low voice, Xu Chuyong took a deep breath and wiped the tears from his face.
He doesn't cherish her, how can she cherish herself. His life was given by his parents, so no energy was spent on him.
Just thinking about it, the door was knocked.
Huaiyu is back? Her eyes lit up, and she hurried up and squeezed the edge of the door and pulled--
"Guest." The guy smiled and looked into the room, carrying water into the room. "The guest officer ordered a basin of water for you to wash. We have a lot of mosquitoes at night here. There is also a plate of incense, mosquito repellent. , You put it by the bed."
The first brew nodded: "I have work."
The guy smiled and put the veil on his shoulders: "You have to give orders before you call, the younger one will leave first."
After sending him out, Xu Chuyong closed the door, feeling a little strange, but it was hard to say.
The smoke from the pan incense turned white, and she felt dizzy after smelling it for a while, and simply pinched it out, holding her eyelids and continuing to wait for Huaiyu.
After two sticks of incense, the door was knocked again.
Xu Chuyong heard the "dongdong" sound. But for some reason, her eyelids were heavy, her body was weak, and her mouth was open for a long time, but she couldn't speak.
Oops!
She opened her eyes with difficulty and looked at the extinguished fragrance by the bed. She knew that it was not good, but she didn't move. She didn't want to faint completely, and it would take a lot of effort.
The door was tied, and a crack was pushed open, and a small hook came in from the door to hook the peg. A light lift pushed the door open. The guy who sent the incense just now came in, took a look at her, and asked the person next to him in a low voice: "Is that her?"
The person next to him said in a puzzled manner: "It's a little weird to see...but this room is correct, take it away first."
The man agreed, and was about to pull her arm when he came up.
Xu Chuyong was frightened and she raised her hand to throw him away, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't make any movement with her hand.
She fell off the bed, her half-closed eyes could only see the boots of these two men, and her forehead knocked on the stool leg next to her. The pain finally made her sober.
"Help...Help!" Xu Chuyong yelled hard, but his voice was like a mosquito.
"This person is still awake!" The guy was startled, and looked around, as if looking for something to knock her out.
Ruined. Xu Chuyong closed his eyes and dared not look again.
However, after waiting for a while, the expected pain did not subside, and the man who was still fierce and vicious, suddenly fell silent for some reason.
Xu Chuyong was taken aback for a moment, and when he lifted his eyelids laboriously, he saw Chi Jin standing beside her. A long knife lay under the man's arm, and as long as he moved it down, blood would be visible.
"Hit it?" Qing Xian leaned at the door, grinning, "Don't be afraid, just one arm? It's important to hit someone."
Wu pushed Qingxian a hand, and when he came in, he helped Xu Chuniang up first, and looked at the swollen bag on her forehead, her face was a bit ugly for a moment.
"It's over." He murmured, "You can tell your Highness what you think."
I knew that this shop was not appropriate. Everyone kept an eye on it. The incense delivered from the inn was not ordered. They didn't touch anything except Chijin's food. If the store didn't do it, tonight would have passed, but once they did it, they wouldn't take advantage.
Everyone has experience in black eating black, and only heard the movement, but also suppressed it a bit, intending to catch it before talking.
As a result, Jiang Xu was hurt.
Chijin kicked the guy away, pulled the lanyard on the bed net, and tied his hands and feet. The clearing action was also fast, and when he lifted the stool, he hit the back of the neck of the man next to him.
"Don't beat me to death." Jiwu said while holding Jiang Xu's family to the bed, "Leave it to your Highness for questioning."
Seeing that the situation was wrong, the guy shouted outside the window: "The wind is tight, pull..."
"Take your grandma's leg!" Qing Xian slammed a stool over, "Want to run? Dreaming!"
Those who were resting downstairs had already cleaned up all the people entering the room. At this moment, the Jiang family didn't know the situation, they had already begun to search around to see how many stolen silver treasures were hidden in this inn.
The agility of the action and the proficiency of the process made the shopkeeper stunned.
"Which way, brother?" the shopkeeper asked.
Several people glanced at each other, and learned the way the princess looked like a princess with their arms akimbo: "Kyoto bully Li Danyang, have you heard of it?"
The shopkeeper shook his head in horror.
"Then you can remember it in the future." Bai Aiyu patted his shoulder earnestly, "Otherwise you will suffer a lot!"
As he said, he took his hidden silver box out of the counter, counted the silver bills, and carried them all into his arms.
Xu Chuyong lay half-hearted with lingering fears, her eyes could not be opened because of the drug's spare force, but she just didn't dare to fall asleep, so her face turned blue.
"Second madam, go to sleep." Chijin stood five steps away from her, arching his hands, "Being guarded outside the door."
After that, he turned around and closed the door for her.
The lantern in the hallway outside was on, and the light reflected on the door, reflecting his silhouette. Xu Chuyong looked at it, finally relieved, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Wu knocked on the door one by one to ask for peace. Jiang Shen was awakened and asked impatiently: "What's the matter?"
Take a look at him. Wu Gongshou said, "A thief has entered the house of the second lady. I will ask the next person to see if there is any trouble in other places."
A Ji Ling woke up, Jiang Shen wrinkled his eyebrows, opened him and walked out.
Encountered a thief? Xu Chuyong is a timid person. He can scare her when he speaks loudly. He can't scare her to death when he sees a culprit enter the house?
A few steps to the door of the room, Jiang Shen looked up and saw Chi Jin holding a knife.
"Please stay." Chi Jin stopped him.
Jiang Shen looked at him up and down and sneered: "What are you? Stop me?"
Chijin handed over: "According to orders, please be considerate of Young Master Jiang."
"Ordered?" Jiang Shen squinted, "My wife is in it, what about your order?"
Chijin was silent, standing in front of the door, not giving up half a step.
The people in the inn were awakened one after another. Bai Xuanji heard the news and immediately went to Jiang Xuanjin's door.
"My lord! My lord!"
Jiang Xuanjin paused, and the first reaction was to cover Li Huaiyu's ears on the bed.
"Second young lady, don't make a noise." Chengxu came over, frowning and arching his hands, "The Lord wants to rest."
Bai Xuanji said anxiously: "It is said that there are burglars in this inn, and I have to ask the Lord if it is okay."
"Second Miss is too worried." Cheng Xu said, "The Lord is not serious."
"How did you know if you didn't go in?" Bai Xuanji was reluctant.
The noisy voices continued, and Li Huaiyu was awakened from a deep sleep. He opened his eyes displeased and saw Jiang Xuanjin sitting on the bedside with a dark face, while he was shamelessly occupying the bed.
"Hey, why did I fall asleep again?" He quickly lifted the quilt and got out of bed and put on his shoes, looking at his obviously angry look, Huaiyu said embarrassingly, "Sorry, it was not intentional."
How did she know that Jiang Xuanjin was angry about something else? Fortunately, Jun Ziyang was well-educated, and was so angry that she didn't throw her out.
Jiang Xuanjin got up and stepped forward and opened the door.
Bai Xuanji was startled, and then looked at him again and said: "My lord, my concubine is very worried about you!"
Her eyebrows pounded at what she claimed to hear, Jiang Xuanjin said, "I beg your second lady to respect yourself."
Bai Xuanji pursed her lips, pretending that she didn't understand her, and said: "The concubine's clothes are a little untidy, and she is also concerned about the monarch, and she has not taken care of it in a hurry. If the concubine feels that her concubine is frivolous, then the concubine will go back and change her clothes first."
After speaking, he turned his head and left.
Jiang Xuanjin looked at her back, her eyes cool.
Huaiyu emerged from behind him and asked suspiciously, "What happened?"
Chengxu replied: "It is said that a thief was in the shop..."
"Where is the thief in this wilderness? It can only be the black heart of the shop!" He was still a little sleepy. When he heard this, Li Huaiyu became sober and went out with his skirt, "The net is closed!"
She walked very fast, Jiang Xuanjin followed two steps and then stopped, watching her disappear into the corner of the corridor like flying.
Rather than rushing to watch the excitement, it's more like running away.
Huaiyu is indeed at large. She feels that her emotions are not right. Isn't it just a "concubine body"? She used to be unwilling to call herself that way, but now what does she think Die should do?
It's too awkward. Don't think about it anymore.
After cursing himself a few words in his heart, Li Huaiyu returned to the door of the room, and saw that there was chaos all around.
Jiang Shen grabbed Chi Jin and fought together for some reason. Two charming girls were persuading him, but Wu and the others stood by and watched the excitement, muttering from time to time, "Take the game."
With a twitch of the corner of his mouth, Huaiyu went up and gave them a kick: "Hurry up?"
Wu Qingxian was taken aback, and immediately changed into a persuasive appearance, stepping forward to separate people from each other.
Jiang Shen's face was painted, and he was caught by Ji Wu and sipped Chijin: "I really thought that the rabbit would not bite when he was anxious?"
Chijin replied blankly: "It doesn't hurt if you bite."
"you!"
Huaiyu was amused. He pulled Jiang Shen by his collar and sent him back to the two concubines to support him. Then he said: "The second son is only a tall man, and he has always used pen and ink to run the world. How can he do it today? Crude fights?"
Jiang Shen pointed to Chi Jin: "He blocked my way."
"Really?" Huaiyu leaned over and looked at Chi Jin. Seeing that he was not hurt much, she patted his shoulder and laughed, "Good job!"
Jiang Shen: "..."
"How is the first brew?" she asked.
Several people looked at each other, pushed Chijin up, Chijin pursed her lips, and said in a low voice, "I was drugged and drowsy. I knocked on my head. Nothing else is serious."
Are you still hurt? Huaiyu stared, and walked inside.
Xu Chuyong is still asleep, his expression has returned to normal, only a bag is swollen on his forehead, looking a little embarrassed.
Huaiyu stared at it for a while, went to the luggage, turned the ointment out and stuffed it into Chijin's hand, and then hooked towards Jiwu and the others: "Come with me."
Eight faces opened the way, and Li Danyang, the little king of Kyoto, slammed downstairs aggressively.
When Jiang Xuanjin arrived, the prisoner's wood room was already full of howling ghosts and wolves.
"Grandma aunt! Grandma aunt! Let's just eat food!" The swollen-nose-faced man repeatedly begged for mercy. "You are a group of people at first sight. We didn't dare to do it, but some people pay a big price. Let's kill people and make more money!"
"Oh?" Li Huaiyu swayed Erlang's legs, "To kill, just move the people in my room?"
The man said: "We don't recognize you, grandma! It's this person! It was him who called for "Bai Zhuji"."
Huaiyu took a look, and reached out to turn over the big man who was still unconscious, but he was blocked by someone without reaching it.
"People in the palace." Jiang Xuanjin said quietly.
Glancing at him in surprise, and then at this uncharacteristic man on the ground, Huaiyu is curious: "How did you know?"
Jiang Xuanjin cared for her with the eyes of caring for a fool: "Except for the people in the palace, who would have trouble with Bai Zhuji?"
The road went smoothly these two days. They really relaxed a little, thinking that in Ziyang territory, the emperor's hand could not be stretched so long, and as a result, it was still impossible to guard against.
Huaiyu shook his head: "That's it, he knows that I'm on the road with you, and your suspicion of rebellion is unclear."
Giving her an indifferent look, Jiang Xuanjin dragged her out of the wood house, turned her head and ordered Chengxu: "Clean up."
"Yes." Chengxu arched his hands.
Seeing that he was leading him to go to his room again, Huaiyu hesitated and said: "What are you doing?"
Jiang Xuanjin glanced at the sky: "There is another hour, you will sleep a little longer."
Huaiyu wanted to say that she could sleep in her own room. But think about the first brew is still there. So he said: "Let Jiwu and Qingxian squeeze, I can sleep with them."
After a pause, Jiang Xuanjin turned her head back: "Their bed is more comfortable than mine?"
"Not this..." Huaiyu shrugged, "It's not very convenient for you."
The ghost knows what "concubine body" will come out again.
Looking at her steadily, Jiang Xuanjin said: "I'm going to see the second brother, you are sleeping in the room, there is nothing inconvenient."
After all, as soon as the pace turns, he will go in another direction.
Huaiyu stood on the spot and looked at his back, feeling that this person seemed to have changed a little. Although he still had a wrong word, he seemed to be much gentler.
Except Li Huaiyu this night. No one has a good rest. Everyone set off at dawn the next day and hurriedly left the inn.
When Xu Chuyong woke up, Gu Luan was waiting by the bed.
"Madam." She said blankly, "No matter how angry you are, there is no reason why the son can't come off the stage in public."
Looking at her blankly, Xu Chuyong's voice was hoarse: "When will I let him not come to stage?"
"It's clearly the main room of the son, but sleeping in someone else's room, and let a man with a foreign surname guard it?" Gu Luan frowned, "The son is generous, you think it should be right?"
Xu Chuyong listened calmly, and then asked her: "In your opinion. What should I do?"
Gu Luan replied: "Go and ask the son, he has not eaten breakfast yet."
This lady has always been easy to handle. She has repeatedly offended her, and she doesn't see her anxious red eyes, and will not complain, so Gu Luan always stands tall in front of her.
However, after listening to her, Xu Chuyong did not respond as before, instead he stood up and leaned against the soft pillow, and smiled softly:
"The Chaffinch gestures in front of Honghu's eyes, fearing that the wings are not long enough."
Gu Luan was taken aback, puzzled: "What do you mean?"
"Praise you." Chubiao nodded, "Thank you for your kindness."
