Chapter 718: Good One, You Am Pleasing to Me
Rumors are rife in Surabaya City, all of which are rumored to be driven by traitors from the DPRK and China, harming the people of Li, looting the people's fat and ointment, and ruining the reputation of the Northern Domain, and so on.
If it was said that Jinxiu killed those three people completely to please Xiao Lingyun, it would be unrealistic. It's more about conscription!
No matter whose idea it was to recruit soldiers, Splendid would not allow his own family to suffer and take risks, and if the leader of Surabaya City was a good official, Splendid might not have killed him, but it was so unfortunate.
Killed, messed up, some things will inevitably be put aside, the position of the prefect is not small, with the Yin family's substitute for the heavens, I don't know if the arrival of the next prefect will be smooth!
Jinxiu's eyes sparkled, and he sneered in his heart, but they were all cheaper than the Ji family, and if the Ji family didn't leave, then this Surabaya City. He's the big winner.
As soon as Jinxiu took Xiao Lingyun and stepped into the Furong Garden, she saw that the lobby that had just welcomed guests at this time in the past was cold, and even more, Jinxiu and Xiao Lingyun had just entered the door, and the tall door behind them was closed.
There was a person sitting at the table in the center of the hall, it was the Ji family that Jinxiu was talking about before, Ji Shaoxuan!
He was dressed in brocade and crowned, holding a tea cup in his hand, with a good demeanor, Mei Niang stood behind him with a respectful face, exactly three feet apart, fading away from the usual enchanting and charming, Mei Niang at this time actually made Xiao Lingyun feel strange.
Not to mention, the formation in front of him was obviously coming towards the two of them, and in an instant, Xiao Lingyun tensed up and pursed her lips.
Seeing Xiao Lingyun like this, Ji Shaoxuan, who seemed to be drinking tea very calmly, finally couldn't help but sigh, "Lingyun..... Why is this the case, but for two years, are you and I so different?"
Xiao Lingyun's eyes were red when she heard this, and she was about to blurt out some words, but Jinxiu grabbed Xiao Lingyun's hand in time and pinched it hard to stop her impulse.
Seeing that Ji Shaoxuan's eyes were darkening, Jinxiu was unhurriedly pulling Xiao Lingyun, who was breathing a little short, to sit down, refill the tea, and take two sips, then he said leisurely, "Young Master Ji's patience is not very good, the Jiang family has just left the city, you can't bear it, tsk.....t"
As soon as Jinxiu's words came out, a cold light flashed in Ji Shaoxuan's eyes, but in the end, he still pursed his lips and smiled, and stopped talking
Xiao Lingyun saw Jinxiu like this, and subconsciously smiled to appease, lest Jinxiu worry about her, and after laughing, Xiao Lingyun felt a little abrupt, and in an instant, Hongyun covered her face again.
Rao is Ji Shaoxuan had already made up his mind to let go, and when he saw this situation, his heart was still as uncomfortable as if he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, so his face was frosty, he snorted coldly, and said
"What's the matter? Lingyun doesn't even want to say a word to me? Then do you know that you can stay in Surabaya City safely, and I will do it, otherwise, you would have accompanied Uncle Xiao to the border city to endure hardships. ”
blurted out these words, Ji Shaoxuan regretted it, he came today, just to come to see, the person who accompanied Lingyun every day was worth her life, if the two of them were sincere delivery, then he should do the last thing for Xiao Lingyun and send him to live and fly.
But he didn't want to be angry for a while, those things that shouldn't be said, those words just blurted out, Ji Shaoxuan clenched the tea cup, closed his eyes fiercely, and read in his heart.
Sure enough, when Ji Shaoxuan opened his eyes again, he was met by Xiao Lingyun's bloodshot eyes.
It's a pity that this red color is not caused by tears, it is all because of anger, Xiao Lingyun was shocked when she heard Ji Shaoxuan's words at first, and even her body trembled uncontrollably, but when the sentence circled in Xiao Lingyun's mind several times, Xiao Lingyun only heard the alms from above.
Xiao Lingyun was laughed angrily, she raised her hand and slapped it on the table, and shouted loudly, "Then Xiao Lingyun really wants to thank Young Master Ji for his kindness, Young Master Ji is very kind Xiao Lingyun doesn't dare to forget, so I have to .....report it again in the future."
Every word was grateful, but the high tone and the madness in his eyes stabbed Ji Shaoxuan's heart in an instant, he got up in a panic and raised his hand to pull Xiao Lingyun's hand, but he didn't want Xiao Lingyun to see his movements clearly, so he flicked his sleeves fiercely
"It's the first time Xiao Lingyun has seen such a shameless person, is... I wasn't assigned to Lancheng, but I don't think I'm doing better than Lancheng at all, Young Master Ji is afraid that he forgot it, right? You also rewarded me with a name, Dongxue... Hehe, what a winter snow, isn't it?"
Xiao Lingyun is wearing a water-blue brocade dress today, the fabric is pearlescent, like the moon, the pure white fox fur with a standing collar, and the white hosta with an oblique insertion.
"Lingyun, calm down, listen to me. Ji Shaoxuan habitually scolded, and when he saw the mocking smile on the corner of Xiao Lingyun's lips, his heart throbbed for a while, but he still closed his eyes fiercely and opened his mouth
"I can't help it, the current situation is that I can do the best I can at that time!" He pretended to have his back to Xiao Lingyun, not wanting to see her expression, nor wanting to see Youzai Youzai sitting behind Xiao Lingyun drinking tea, with a beautiful face full of good-watching splendor
"Two years ago, a day before the upheaval, I received news that the Lord Regent wanted to install people in Surabaya City!"
Hearing the forcibly suppressed breathing behind him, Ji Shaoxuan's heart became heavier and heavier, whether Xiao Lingyun belonged to the person behind him or not, I was afraid that this once gentle and gentle girl was not something he could recover.
Ji Shaoxuan took a hard breath, suppressed the fluctuations in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "Surabaya City is close to the border of Mangshan, although it has never been garrisoned, but it has always been in the eyes of those big people, and Surabaya City is the city closest to Mangshan, if you want to do something on the border, you can only take Surabaya City into your own hands, so the five of us have become a thorn in the side of the regent." ”
Hearing this, the tea cup in Jinxiu's hand was pinched and shattered with a click, while Xiao Lingyun's pupils constricted, her lips trembled, and even Mei Niang, who pretended to be transparent, couldn't help but sigh leisurely.
"The Xiao and Ji families have been on good terms, I told Uncle Xiao about it, but Uncle Xiao didn't believe that the prime minister couldn't protect us, I was uneasy, so I secretly took the money I had saved for a long time and handed over the rest of the family property when the imperial capital came to make it, so I could protect the family..."
There was some obvious fear in Ji Shaoxuan's voice, obviously, he was still afraid at this time, and his voice was a little hurried to justify, "My actions are just in case, even if the prime minister can protect us at that time, I only need to relocate the operation of the family industry, and I can recover all the money, but I don't want to..."
Speaking of this, Ji Shaoxuan turned to face Xiao Lingyun and said, "Lingyun, I know I have wronged you, but I... I was pleased with you at that time and didn't want you to leave, so I did everything possible to ask the messenger to let you enter the Hibiscus Garden, but I didn't expect ..... I'm sorry...."
As soon as Ji Shaoxuan's voice fell, Xiao Lingyun laughed wildly, and even tears hung on the corners .....of his eyes, "Okay!
