40.Counterattack of the court: splendid country (11)
Early the next morning, Huaiyu brought bad news that Shi Changqing had died in prison.
Yan Xilan pondered for a moment, feeling a little relieved in her heart, seeing her depressed expression, she comforted her: "It's okay, I have expected this result, take this opportunity to pull out the nail planted by the other party." ”
Huaiyu straddled his shoulders and said sluggishly: "The maid is incompetent, and he actually let the master's territory enter the foreign thief." ”
"That man has been planning for a long time, and the various threads and piles have been planted long before our action, and there are many people who are dormant in Yong'an City like this, so you don't have to worry too much, just focus on what is in front of you. The young man threw the towel that had wiped his face into a copper basin filled with water, sat down in front of the mirror, and waited for her to take care of the three feet of green silk for himself.
Huaiyu picked up a wooden comb and combed it carefully for him, pulled a square bun, and then fixed it with a jade crown. She endured it, but she still couldn't hold back, and asked, "Master, aren't you in a hurry?"
Yan Xilan said lightly: "I have my own arrangements for that matter, you send someone to keep an eye on Li Sheng, and report any news to me immediately." ”
Huaiyu was stunned, "Could it be ......?"
Yan Xilan hummed, "The people of the King of Chu have gone to look for him, and they shouldn't have talked about it yesterday, but his heart has already moved, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the initiative to come to the door with such confidence." Another purpose of his provocation is to test whether I have also been invited by the king of Chu, judging from his habit of hating to say three meanings in one sentence, the last sentence of Duoduo is not just polite, but paving the way for the future. After emphasizing the importance of oneself, if you join the camp of the king of Chu, you should do something with yourself, and if the negotiation fails, you should build a good relationship and assist your majesty to ensure that the benefits within the permissible scope are maximized. Since ancient times, he has been accompanied by a tiger like a tiger, and he is willing to fall into the well when His Majesty and I give birth to a gap and take the opportunity to ascend to the throne. ”
Huaiyu was indignant: "It's really an old fox!"
The young man was calm: "He has been cultivating for so many years, and he has to be a little Taoist." ”
After Yan Xilan entered the palace, he told Ji Jincheng about this, including Yan Zhichun's visit last night. The latter was a little absent-minded, he didn't see him as usual, and even every time he came into contact with the young man's gaze, he would unconsciously look away, and the whole person looked sad and had no energy.
Yan Xilan frowned, thinking that he was suffering from heat stroke due to the hot weather in summer, and reached out to give him a pulse, the young man suddenly stiffened like a young beast that had been poked at the point, and quickly retracted his hand into his sleeve, and even Yan Xilan was stunned for a moment, not understanding where he had offended him, and secretly sighed in his heart that the king's heart was unpredictable, and the ancients did not deceive me.
When he withdrew his hand, he was grasped by Ji Jincheng again. Yan Xilan stared at his long finger held in the palm of his hand by others and was silent for a while, and asked with his eyes, but the young man turned his head directly and avoided it.
Yan Xilan: ......
As if realizing that his capricious attitude was indeed a bit inexplicable, Ji Jincheng coughed and said, "Do what Lan Xi wants." When he said this, his eyes were still fluttering. He is very empty in his heart, he only did what he wanted in his dream last night, and he wants to get along with each other at close range today, how can he not be enough?
The confusion and confusion after realizing that his feelings for the young man had changed, and the restlessness and longing that arose because of the touch of the other party's eyes, made him unconsciously recall that dream, and the trembling pleasure led people to indulge in nostalgia, and the satisfaction of the soul brought by complete possession is incomparable to anything. The intoxicated young man clearly sensed that the beast sleeping in the cage had awakened, and one day, it would break free from the shackles and break out of the confinement.
"In this case, please ask Your Majesty to go out of the palace with Weichen. The young man said with a smile.
The topic changed too quickly, and Ji Jincheng didn't react for a while.
On the seventh day of the seventh month of July, the fire tree and silver flowers never sleep. On this day, every family does not close their doors at night, and they have poured into the streets to pray for Fu Lu Shou, and the official road for eight horses to travel together is bustling one after another, so it is not lively. The young women out of the pavilion bride in the courtyard display flowers and fruits, female red and other things, begging the weaver girl for wisdom, and some bold girls will sneak out of the door, with the dream of meeting a lover, meet a love. Therefore, under the accumulation of many romantic stories, the begging festival gradually took on some dreamy colors that young men and women loved.
Ji Jincheng was thinking about this, the young man was neither early nor late, why did he choose this day to ask him out? Is it actually ...... The young man thought of the other party's teaching and companionship in the past few years, and his ears quietly turned red.
In a moment of thought, something happened to his face. Ji Jincheng took it in his hand and saw that it was a mask with a blue face and fangs. When he raised his eyes, he saw the young man looking at him with a smile: "The young master is difficult to come out, so let's have fun." ”
At the age of the young Mu Ai, Ji Jincheng only felt that the slight smile of his sweetheart could withstand thousands of styles in the world, and his heartbeat suddenly lost his rhythm, he grabbed his sleeve, put it to his ear and whispered: "You accompany me." ”
The summer clothes were light, revealing the white and graceful neck of the youth, and the warm snort gently swept by, bringing a slight tingle. Yan Xilan retreated a little uncomfortably, and said to the young man who seemed to be a little lost: "Since I brought you out below, I want to protect you." ”
Ji Jincheng was not convinced: "I don't need your protection anymore!"
Yan Xilan believes that people are more popular than people, he asked himself if his cultivation speed is not slow, and he has the foundation, and it only took four years to break the six-layer bottleneck and enter the realm of a real first-class master. Ji Jincheng's age when he started cultivating was not good, but he rushed straight to the sixth-level realm that ordinary people would take ten or twenty years or even more to reach like a rocket. His eyes fluctuated, and then quickly calmed down.
"Let's go. ”
The past cannot be traced, but people always have to look forward. The young man turned and took a step, but he did not refuse the hand that the young man wrapped around him.
The lights are bright, the voices of people are like a tide, and the ritual music comes intermittently from a distance, adding an ethereal and ethereal, which is a scene that Ji Jincheng has never seen, he has grown up in the deep palace since he was a child, and there are people in front of and behind him, and with his identity, he is not allowed to take risks lightly. It can be said that this experience of sneaking out of the palace is the first time.
It tastes good. Ji Jincheng looked at the person beside him and thought with the corners of his mouth curled.
His good mood lasted until he met Li Shu.
At that time, the son of luck had just turned twelve, and it was the year of the golden hairpin, and she quietly ran out to enjoy the tour with the brothers and sisters of the eldest lady, and was bluffed by a few people with bad intentions to agree to play hide and seek, and when she counted a hundred times blindfolded, where could she see the traces of several other people. At first, she seriously searched all around, persevered and called several times, waited in place for a long time, and after confirming that she was really left behind, she couldn't help but reddened her eyes, and kept dropping golden beans.
At this moment, a warm and soft voice sounded from the top of his head: "Miss, but she is separated from her family?"
Li Shu looked up at the soft-soled white boots that attracted her eyes, and saw a young man in a wide-sleeved white shirt looking at her with a slight smile.
The young man frowned, and said worriedly: "There are many people and there are accidents at this time, if the young lady doesn't mind, my young master is willing to send you home." ”
Ji Jincheng: Wait, when did Gu say that he was going to send her?!
Li Shu obviously read some information from his not very good-looking face, and then looked at the young man with a determined expression, and was a little undecided for a while.
But how can this stump the head of the Yan family? The young man said with a pleasant face: "We have no malicious intentions, but seeing that the young lady is alone here, we think that you may need help. The young master was cold-hearted and kind-hearted, so he drove down to ask. When she said this, her tone was gentle enough to drip water, and the fledgling girl was immediately dazzled by the flowers and agreed dizzily. was so angry that Ji Jincheng's face instantly pulled down, and his eyes were a little aggrieved when he looked at the young man.
The two-person line turned into a threesome, and he was cooling the air throughout the whole process, so cold that Li Shu unconsciously leaned over the young man who was very gentle and talkative, seeking a sense of security. So the temperature around her plummeted, and the colder she was, the more she rubbed against the youth, and the more she rubbed against the air, the colder it became...... And so on and so on until the destination.
On the way back, Ji Jincheng was angry and didn't speak, waiting for the young man to take the initiative to apologize to him, but what he was waiting for was a question from the other party: "What does Your Majesty think of this third lady of the Li Xiang family?"
The young man was silent, and there was a faint ominous premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, the young man's next sentence was: "Wei Chen sees that this female concubine has an excellent appearance and a gentle personality, he will be a beautiful woman of a generation in the future, and His Majesty should not get along with her more." ”
Ji Jincheng turned his head to look at him suddenly, and his footsteps stopped.
Yan Xilan would say this, naturally he had his considerations. First of all, once Ji Jincheng's affair of Li Shu came to fruition, in the eyes of outsiders, Li Sheng was placed on the emperor's side, and people's hearts would change, judging from the ambiguous attitude of both sides before he was subsumed under the King of Chu, the latter would inevitably be wary of him, and how could people who could not be trusted be reused? And this was exactly what Li Sheng wanted most in his camp for decades. In this way, the alliance between the two was fundamentally broken.
Moreover, Ji Liuguang was able to succeed in the end, and there is no lack of credit for Li Shu's luck. The best way for the Mind Consciousness to protect the Child of Fortune is to make her and the person she identifies a winner in life, and sit back and relax. Li Shu's empathy and farewell love is tantamount to a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle for Ji Liuguang.
What's more, Ji Jincheng already likes her, so it's better to start first, cultivate a relationship with Li Shu before Ji Liuguang, and strive to change from quantity to quality. The young man is no longer the faint king of the original world who is not doing his job and mediocre, now he has a sharp vision, intelligent and steady, rich knowledge and decent manners, and initially has the bearing that a king really should have, and he is still born with a good appearance that others cannot envy, and it is not difficult to want to be happy with each other, and under the halo of the son of luck, it will be smooth all the way in the future. It's a good strategy to kill multiple birds with one stone.
I'm afraid that even today's events were arranged by him.
Looking at the young man with a calm face in front of him, Ji Jin was like falling into an ice cave, and it was not an exaggeration to describe the distance between the two as close to the end of the world. After a while, four words were squeezed out from between his teeth: "Lone disagrees!"
