A prince of Dongling Kingdom died in Jingzhou, Xia Zhou Kingdom, not to mention the loss of face, and it will also trigger a war between the two countries, such a price is indeed huge.

Zhen Yunqing said: "Your Highness, you think, no matter what strategy we use, even if it can really make His Majesty Emperor Jing disappointed in His Highness the Thirteenth, but it is only a big disappointment in His Highness the Thirteenth, and no one knows if His Majesty Emperor Jing will one day have the whim to re-establish His Highness the Fourteenth and the Fifteenth Highness to balance Your Highness." It can be said that with the stable situation of the Xia and Zhou Kingdoms, as long as there is enough time, His Majesty Emperor Jing will have a lot to do in the matter of checks and balances. ”

Xia Ji said solemnly: "What should I do?"

"We can force His Majesty Emperor Jing to make his choice unto you, Your Highness. ”

"How?"

"Once the war starts, His Royal Highness the Thirteenth will definitely be the best candidate to be transferred to the battlefield, the war is tight, and the national government urgently needs someone to take care of it, how can His Majesty Emperor Jing have so much time to experience and then support a Xia Qi to come out, all he can use is Your Highness. ”

Xia Ji smiled slightly, as if he could see the "grand scene" depicted in Zhen Yunqing's mouth.

"And the prince Jue was assassinated under the reception and protection of His Royal Highness the Thirteenth, His Royal Highness the Thirteenth was not in a good position, and it was also a crime to be transferred to the battlefield, the war between the two countries was uneven, there was no hope of returning to the country, and the war was less to say three years and five years, dare to ask His Majesty Emperor Jing Can the spirit and spirit last for three and five years? Your Highness is still worried that you can't find a way to deal with him?"

Xia Ji had a smile on his face even more, and suddenly asked, "Prince Jue, why haven't you heard of it before?"

"Dongling does have a Jue prince, who was born to the emperor of Dongling and a palace maid, this Jue prince's status is humble, and the ministers have also heard of it, but I heard that this Jue prince has been weak since he was a child, and he has escaped a sick son who is dying at any time. But the next person did not mention in the newspaper that the person who came to propose marriage was weak. ”

"Then again, he doesn't have the same reputation as his own sister. ”

"His sister?"

It is said that according to the Jue character to take half of the name, named Situ Yuning, this woman looks ordinary, but she has the courage of a man, and she is decisive and ruthless. Although she is a woman, she can get the support of several princes in the palace. ”

"Interesting. Xia Ji said, "Go and check the current situation of this Situ Yuning." ”

"The minister has already ordered it to go down, and I believe that it will not take three or five days for the news to come back. ”

A cold and cruel look rose in Xia Ji's eyes, and he said lightly: "Where is Prince Jue now?"

"Drunken Immortal Building, two hundred guards, but most of them are useless people, His Royal Highness is only allowed to send an assassin to sneak into Prince Jue's room, quietly, just imagine, who will have guards in the room?

"Okay! This matter will be arranged by the gentleman, and this king must not be disappointed. Xia Ji gently patted Zhen Yunqing's shoulder and said.

Zhen Yunqing saluted and withdrew from the hall, a wry smile appeared on his old face, Xia Ji's caution was far beyond his imagination, once the incident in the east window happened, the worst result could be pushed to his husband, which can be described as a good calculation.

The long night fell silent again.

On the moontop treetops, in the second half of the night, Situ Yu woke up in a hazy state, and his throat was like a fire.

At this time, a lingering fragrance of tea permeated the entire room, making people drool.

"Someone ...... coming"

"Princess, don't call anymore, it's just you and me here. ”

Hearing the man's voice in a daze, Situ Yuning sat up suddenly, but was startled by the figure of the man sitting at the table.

The candlelight in the room was extinguished at some point, and only the outline of the man's figure could be roughly seen, as well as the half-angular face, and he raised a glass of tea in the moonlight and looked out the window, indescribably elegant.

Situ Yuning then remembered the ins and outs of the matter, and not only asked in his heart: "Is this person really the identity of a bandit and robber?" But what he revealed in his posture was the demeanor of a great family. But to say that he is a child of a family, there are thick calluses on the joints of his hands, which only people who may be murderers can have. ”

After calming down the panic in his heart, Situ Yu said calmly: "I'm thirsty." ”

"You have been screaming for a long time, the physical exertion is heavy, severe dehydration, and thirst is inevitable. Jiang Changan was indifferent.

"Princess Ben is thirsty. Situ Yuning said coldly.

"This is the tone in which you speak to your life-saving benefactor?" Jiang Changan gently flicked the teapot to the end close to Situ Yuning, and the meaning was very obvious: do it yourself, have enough food and clothing.

Situ Yuning snorted and jumped out of bed, her complexion recovered a lot, she glanced at the tulle on her body, and after thinking about it again, she even looked at her own body, so she didn't care, so she walked straight to the table and sat opposite Jiang Changan, picked up a glass of water and poured it into her stomach.

"Not tea?"

"The tea leaves are on the side, brewing yourself. ”

Jiang Changan originally wanted to make things difficult for this pampered foreign princess, but who knew that Situ Yuning actually managed the tea set on the table in an orderly manner, warmed the cup, woke up the tea, brewed, and it didn't take long for a cup of fresh tea to come out like this.

Situ Yuning pushed the first cup in front of Jiang Changan, and the second cup was held up by himself and sipped.

"You saved my life, and this cup of tea should be a thank you. ”

"I didn't save your life, I saved myself. Besides, your illness is not cured by me now, it is just a temporary help to suppress the toxins in your body, and you will not wake up within half a year. ”

"Really!" Situ Yuning's face was happy.

"Why are you so happy?"

Situ Yu smiled and said, "I'm happy that I can sleep peacefully for the next half a year, and I don't have to worry about waking up again." Forget it, I'll tell you if you don't understand......"

"How can I not understand? I don't dare to sleep at night, isn't it like this since I was a child?" Jiang Changan laughed at himself, causing Situ Yuning to look sideways frequently, that kind of look was like seeing a person of the same kind in a strange world, and he couldn't help but be full of curiosity about this man.

Jiang Changan picked up the tea brewed by Situ Yuning, closed his eyes and sniffed it gently, and then drank it all in one sip as if he had drunk the cup he brewed, and took a small sip in his mouth to taste it.

"How?" Situ Yuning asked, "This is not the tea of the Drunken Immortal Building, but a kind of Tieguanyin unique to the Eastern Spirit Kingdom, called Orchid Fragrance." ”

"The empty valley is elegant, high and timeless, delicate and fresh, but it's a pity that it's a woman's tea ......"

"Tea is still divided into men and women?" Situ Yuning had a slight disbelief on her face, tea ceremony is a kung fu she likes and is best at, it is rare to meet opponents, she doesn't believe that this person who can only kill people also understands such elegant things.

Jiang Changan poured a cup of tea he had just brewed, the same tea leaves, the same spring water, the same technique, the difference was the grasp of the timing of the fire.

Jiang Chang'an's ceramic cup was gently pushed in front of her, and he lightly pointed his hand and made a "please" gesture. At this moment, he is surprisingly elegant, like a scribe.

Situ Yuning picked up the teacup and took a small sip, and before he could swallow it, he spit it out-

"Phew, what is this, do you know how to make tea? Why is it so bitter? ”

Situ Yuning said distressedly, this orchid fragrance can be described as a fine tea, and the number of leaves born every year is only a handful, not sold by weight, but sold by the number of pieces, which can be said to be comparable to gold leaves.

Situ Yuning didn't feel sorry for money, but he was fond of treasures, and he couldn't bear Jiang Chang'an's violent destruction of heavenly things.

Jiang Changan said with a smile: "There are two kinds of orchid fragrance, one is elegant and subtle, the orchid fragrance is quiet, there is yin flexibility, and the penetration is strong, the advantage of this tea is that the tea soup is full of rhyme, so I call him women's tea, and the other is the one you spit out, which tastes masculine, although it is not as long-lasting as women's tea, but it has the majestic atmosphere of swallowing rainbows." ”

Jiang Changan said and poured another cup and handed it over: "Men's tea, it can't be a woman's tea, chew slowly, drink it in a big gulp!"

Situ Yuning took the teacup in disbelief, and drank half a cup of tea with his head up.

Situ Yu's tense face gradually stretched, the bitterness was still there, but it was only a little bit, more of the mellow fragrance remaining between the mouths, thick but not astringent, depressed but not greasy, compared to the warm and moist terroir of Zhongzhou, it was more like stepping into the wind and snow in the north, I only felt that the waves in front of me were magnificent, and I was angry!
