64 Chapter 64
Chonglan deliberately pretended to be stupid: "What is my aunt asking about her plans, why can't I understand?" โ
Aunt Chong twisted her cheeks: "You still play stupid with your aunt." These two people are rare and handsome, and now they are clearly interested in you, but a good woman does not marry a second husband, you have to choose one of them. โ
She began to worry again as she spoke, she was worried about Chonglan's family affairs, but now she was even more worried about the two Guishu Qiongzhi-like characters who came all at once, and she was worried that Chonglan chose one of them to offend the other, and then worried that these two people just wanted to take concubines.
After listening to her question, Chonglan's face was slightly red, she lowered her head and smiled, burying her face in her arms and not speaking.
Aunt Heavy rarely saw her show her little daughter's attitude, and patted her shoulder with a smile: "What are you ashamed of, the girl's family will go through this, but you have to think about it carefully, but don't look away." โ
She thought that Chonglan had just chosen the Pixiu sent by Yan He, and her heart moved, and she hugged her and smiled: "You must like Lord Yan?" โ
Chonglan still hung her head and was silent, Xiao Pixiu hugged her thighs and rubbed around, just as Yan He came over, Aunt Chong hurriedly stepped forward a few steps and stopped: "What's the matter with Lord Yan?" โ
Yan He's attitude was rare and gentle: "I have something to say to Miss Chong." โ
Aunt Chong said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "That's really sorry, my niece is not married yet, and you are a foreign man, but I am afraid that it is inconvenient to say it alone, so let's just say it." โ
This is what Yan He meant to force him to express his position, and he smiled slightly: "It's my family affair with her, can I say it in front of others?" โ
Chonglan heard him speak out in front of his aunt, and his face was even more embarrassed, and he tightened the little Pixiu with both hands, and he waved his little meat claws dissatisfiedly.
However, Aunt Chong's heart was relieved, since she said that she was proposing, it was not a concubine. Her attitude is still very resolute: "Since the adults have this thought, they should also show some sincerity, and ask the matchmaker to propose marriage seriously, otherwise it will be a private life, although our family is not high, but the daughter of the family will never be a concubine." โ
Yan He said in a humble voice: "That's natural, I really want to entrust the middle school to give to the heavy girl, three books and six ceremonies, three media and six hires, and there will be no less." โ
Jiang Yi rode on the horse, looking at the three people who were chatting happily not far away, their expressions were indifferent, the sunlight hit through the shadows of the trees, and there were fine spots of light on his face, and there was an indescribable loneliness on his beautiful face.
He pursed his thin lips into a line, turned his head and asked, "What's going on at home?" โ
The guard behind him replied: "Back to the general's words, the second young master of the Chongjia family eats and drinks every day, has a lot of fun, and praises you for your good hospitality, he is happy and does not think about it." โ
In fact, he was very puzzled why Jiang Yi wanted to raise a wine bag and rice bag at home, serving good wine and food every day, and giving what he wanted, but since it was the master's order, he could only obey orders.
The corners of Jiang Yi's lips hooked: "It's good that he's having fun." After he finished speaking, he looked at the figure of Chonglan in the distance, turned his horse and went back to the Pingle County Palace.
Ah Lan, you can't escape.
When he returned to the house, he saw Chongzheng sitting in the water pavilion, invited a troupe to listen to the play, and when he saw him come back, he greeted with a smile: "Oh, my cousin is here, just so let's listen to the play together." โ
Jiang Yi smiled slightly: "Second brother is still used to living here?" โ
Chongzheng nodded busily and said: "Habit, habit, no habit." He smiled embarrassedly: "It's just that I haven't been back for a few days, and I'm a little worried about my home, so I originally planned to say goodbye to you this afternoon." โ
Jiang Yi asked, "Is the second brother thinking about his sister?" โ
Chongzheng's eyebrows moved, and then he slapped the table and said: "Who cares about that little conscienceless, they all say that the girl who got married spilled the water, I see that her elbow turned out before she got married!" โ
Jiang Yi let him get angry, and asked with a smile: "The second brother feels that she is helping Yan He, that's because Yan He and you don't know each other well, and he doesn't pay attention to you, the second uncle, why doesn't the second brother choose a good son-in-law for Ling Mei?" โ
Chongzheng listened to his previous words, first nodded again and again, and couldn't help frowning when he heard the last sentence: "You mean...?" โ
He smiled, "What do you think of me?" โ
Chongzheng didn't want Yan He to be his brother-in-law, because he felt that he was too good-looking, and he would take away his beloved sister-in-law, so he didn't want Yan He to be his brother-in-law, and in the same way, he didn't want Jiang Yi to marry his sister-in-law, so his face sank, if he hadn't had Jiang Yi's wine in his mouth, he would have brushed his sleeves away.
"Don't make fun of my sister." He said with displeasure on his face.
Jiang Yiyi raised his eyebrows and seemed to be a little surprised, and then the corners of his lips hooked slightly: "What if I wasn't joking?" He saw that there was already anger on his face, so he changed his expression and said, "Say a few words, second brother don't take it to heart." โ
He lightly clasped the wine jug with his fingertips: "I met Sister Ling a few times back then, so I naturally treated her as my own sister, and I didn't have any thoughts about her." โ
Chongzhenghu said suspiciously: "Really? โ
Jiang Yi smiled: "Naturally." He got up and said, "Since the second brother is leaving today, then I won't stay much, I just want to put on a farewell banquet for you, and I hope you will enjoy your face and stay before you finish eating." โ
Seeing that he did not have the arrogance of ordinary clan disciples, Chongzheng treated him with humility and courtesy and thoughtfulness, and had a good impression of him in his heart, so he eased his expression and said: "Let you break the bank, and send you a few good things from the sea to you." โ
Jiang Yi smiled, got up and ordered someone to arrange the water pavilion. Singing and dancing have been set up in the water pavilion, and there is a round square table with hibiscus sweet stones, and dozens of delicacies are placed on the table.
After Chongzheng sat down, he first toasted Jiang Yi, Jiang Yi smiled secretly, raised his right hand slightly, and a tall woman walked out around the screen.
The woman's complexion was fair and delicate, but her eyes were a little blue, her nose was high and her eyes were deep, the snow mounds on her chest did not look like the size that a woman of the Qi Dynasty could have, and her partial face had the elegance of an Oriental, and she was actually a beauty with foreign blood.
Chongzheng's eyes straightened, and Jiang Yi said, "Why don't you come and serve the guests?" โ
The mixed-race beauty responded in a low voice, and snuggled up to Chongzheng's side obediently, serving wine and food, and was very busy.
Chongzheng had a beautiful woman to accompany the wine, and she was completely forgetful of drinking, and she didn't notice that the beauty's left hand was twisted, and the gems on the bracelet were warped, and white powder slipped down her jade hand into the Chongzheng wine.
Jiang Yi poured himself a drink and looked at the weight with great interest. He was already seven or eight points drunk, leaning back in the chair with flushed cheeks and shortness of breath, but his body reacted, rubbing his body indiscriminately, taking a handful on his breasts from time to time, and twisting it on his thighs.
Jiang Yi saw that the time was almost up, and bowed lightly at the mixed-race beauty, the mixed-race beauty seemed to be a little reluctant, and said in a low voice: "General..."
Jiang Yi smiled softly: "Go and do things well, I will settle your parents and family well, and I will not let my father know about this matter." โ
Only then did the beauty put her mind at ease, bowed down and dragged her weight behind the screen, and the bed and futon were placed in the middle room. The spice of love, after a while, the man's low roar and the woman's delicate and tactful โกโก came out, and they were harmoniously transmitted to the outer world.
Jiang Yi seemed to be completely unconscious, still sipping the wine in the cup, and when the wine in the jade pot was at the bottom, the beauty walked out with disheveled clothes and flushed cheeks, and staggered to his knees in front of him: "General... My business is done, can you let me go back to the prince? โ
Jiang Yi responded with a smile, the woman went out with relief, and a shadow stuck behind her without paying attention, stretched out two hands and strangled the woman's neck, the woman struggled for a while, and finally couldn't resist the strength of the person behind her, and she couldn't move on the ground.
Jiang Yi looked at the corpse on the ground lightly: "Throw her on the couch of Chongzheng, everything will be disposed of." โ
The corners of his lips curled: "The second young master of the heavy family came to the mansion as a guest, and after getting drunk, he saw that his father Wang Xinna's beloved concubine was beautiful, so he dragged him into the water pavilion and raped him. Dirty, after waking up, I was afraid that the matter would be revealed, so I strangled my father's concubine, can you remember what I said? โ
At this time, the screams of Chongzheng behind the screen came, Jiang Yi strolled over, he pointed to the corpse on the ground in a panic and asked, "This... What's going on? โ
Jiang Yi smiled: "I just forgot to tell the second brother that this woman is my father's beloved concubine, and she was accidentally drunk by you, and you killed her again." โ
He frowned as if embarrassed: "Let me think, how should this be?" โ
Chongzheng finally understood at this time, and rushed over and yelled: "You framed me!" He was stopped before he could get closer.
Jiang Yi scolded him for a while, and smiled: "Second brother doesn't have to scold so ugly, this matter is not without room for turnaround." โ
He raised his hand and patted it, someone came over with a brocade box, and he took out the marriage book from the brocade box: "Ah Lan's parents died early, and only you are left with a brother, the eldest brother is like a father, and her marriage can only be decided by you." โ
Chongzheng's lips trembled, and he glanced at the name on the marriage book, only to know that Jiang Yi had already hit Chonglan's idea, and scolded: "The surname Jiang is forgotten, you don't want me to sign, my sister will not be a bastard like you if she doesn't marry for the rest of her life!" โ
Jiang Yi was a little surprised, he thought that according to his upright temperament, in order to save his life, he would definitely sign it happily, but he didn't expect him to be hard.
However, this kind of toughness is not what he likes now, so he just smiled slightly, and ordered to the soldiers beside him: "Since this is the case, then you can help me entertain my second brother well." โ
After he finished speaking, he muttered again: "Brother and sister are connected, she must not know this news yet." โ
......
Chonglan was teasing Pixiu in the hunting village at this time, took a basket of bamboo shoots and let it hold the basket and click and gnaw, turned to Aunt Chong and asked, "According to my aunt, what name do you give it?" โ
Aunt Chong glanced at her and said deliberately: "Since it was sent to you by Lord Yan, then you should go to Lord Yan and ask, he is a Tanhua, and his name must be better than mine." โ
Chonglan said embarrassedly: "You are really... I know that I and him..."
Aunt Chong laughed, wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk and burst into tears, and suddenly became worried again: "The major marriage event is always the order of the parents, although he likes you, but his family..."
Chonglan's heart sank, and she said with a nonchalant look: "It's a big deal not to marry, what's so rare." โ
Aunt Chong smiled and patted her hand: "I just said casually, I see that Lord Yan has an idea, since you have the ability to show favor to you in front of so many people, there must be a way to persuade the family to marry you into the door with a big sedan chair." โ
After she finished speaking, she sighed again: "Speaking of which, General Jiang is also excellent, he has both character and talent, and he is also a cousin with you, but it's a pity, there is no fate." โ
Chonglan felt a chill in his heart when he thought of Jiang Yi, but he did a good job of face kung fu, and he was always polite and polite in front of people, no wonder Aunt Chong sighed like this.
It's not easy to tell Aunt Chong about these reasons, she just smiled: "Aunt thinks about the county lord of Qinghe, whoever has such an aunt can stand it." โ
Aunt Chong agreed, and asked, "Why hasn't your second brother disappeared these days?" He can't be absent from your marriage. โ
Chonglan frowned and said, "I don't know where I ran to, I haven't seen anyone for the past few days." โ
Aunt Chong shook her head helplessly, and after the two finished speaking, they went to see Pixiu again, and saw that it gnawed the bamboo shoots in the basket in a blink of an eye to only a few left.
Everyone laughed and said, "I can eat like this, I'm really a foodie." โ
While talking and laughing, an attendant hurriedly ran in and exclaimed: "Girl, the shopkeeper asked me to pass the word over, saying that the second young master raped and killed the concubine of the king of Pingle County, and now he has been locked up!" โ
Chonglan's face was pale, and she almost couldn't stand on her feet, and Aunt Chong asked loudly, "What's going on?" When did something happen? โ
The person who reciprocated was full of embarrassment: "This... I don't know if it's a little one. โ
Chonglan only felt that the world was spinning, and he grabbed the handrail with one hand to feel that he had something to rely on, and reluctantly said: "I've been locked up... Explain that there is still room for things to turn around, so I'll go back first. โ
Aunt Chong was also anxious, nodded and asked her to go first.
Chonglan rode a fast horse to the city, Rao was so that she only rushed back to Chongfu in the afternoon, she didn't even care about drinking saliva, and hurriedly asked Xi Xuetian: "What's going on?" โ
Xi Xuetian was about to answer, when he heard someone outside the verandah: "Girl, there is a person outside the door who claims to be the general of Zhenguo who asks to see you." โ
Chonglan was slightly stunned, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he didn't have time to think about it when he was in a hurry, and now he suddenly remembered the relationship between Jiang Yi and the king of Pingle County, and his heart was cold, but he still bit his lower lip and said, "Please let him in." โ
Xi Xuetian frowned and wanted to speak, Chonglan waved his hand: "Xuetian, you go out first, he is here to find me." โ
But after a while, Jiang Yi entered the main hall, stood on the carved blue bricks and smiled at her slightly: "It's really not easy to enter your mansion once, if it weren't for your second brother's accident this time, you shouldn't have let me in." โ
Chonglan's face twitched slightly, got up and let him sit on the top, and changed his head and said, "What is the matter with the general's visit this time?" โ
Jiang Yi chose a position opposite her and sat down, staring at her with interest: "I said I came to you to catch up with the past, do you believe it?" โ
Chonglan tried his best to maintain his composure: "I naturally believe it, why don't I believe what the general says?" โ
Jiang Yi saw the panicked eyes from her pale fingers, and smiled: "So, you don't care about your second brother's life or death?" โ
Chonglan's fingers loosened and tightened: "I don't know what happened yet." โ
Jiang Yi got up and helped her don't let go of the falling strand of broken hair, and his voice was soft: "Your second brother has been living in the county king's mansion these days, I know that you are brothers and sisters, and I have been helping you entertain you carefully, but I didn't expect..."
A mysterious smile appeared in his eyes, but his eyebrows were sad: "Your second brother met my father's concubine after getting drunk today, and somehow he had an inappropriate mind and raped her. After being dirty, he was strangled to death. โ
Chong Lan's temperament naturally knows that if he is greedy and lustful, he will naturally have it, but he has absolutely no courage to kill, even if he is drunk. Her lips trembled, and she forced herself to hold on: "This is inevitably too far-fetched, isn't there anyone to take care of the huge county palace?" What can my second brother do whatever he wants? โ
Jiang Yi smiled but didn't answer, and continued: "My father was very angry when he found out, and immediately rushed back from the hunting ground, wanting to execute your second brother immediately, but I stopped him. โ
Chonglan's face turned pale, if the king of Pingle didn't know that there was still room for turning around in this matter, knowing that it was useless for her to have more reason, no matter how much the Chong family was now only in business, it would be easy for the county king to kill Chongzheng.
With a white face, she reluctantly thanked her: "Thank you General Zhenguo for saving my brother's life." โ
Jiang Yi played with a strand of her broken hair, approached and rubbed her cheek with the tip of his nose: "I can protect him for a while, but I can't protect him for a lifetime." โ
Chonglan resisted the urge to scream and asked, "What does the general want?" โ
Jiang Yi smiled and wanted to kiss her lightly on the cheek, but she dodged her: "Little villain, don't you know what I want?" โ
He couldn't resist the urge to get close to her: "As long as you become my father's daughter-in-law, and your second brother is also his junior, he is angry, can he still kill his junior to pay for his life?" โ
Chonglan's fingertips trembled: "What if I don't agree?" โ
He smiled: "That's my second brother who carried you and hugged you when I was a child, played with you and protected you, can you bear to watch him die?" โ
He rubbed the soft back of her neck, thinking that she was about to belong to him, the longing in his heart could hardly be suppressed: "Go and refuse Yan He, promise to marry me, and I will treat you well." He touched the tip of her nose: "It's ten million times better than Yan He." โ
Chonglan's body trembled, but his face calmed down, and he asked indifferently, "Why?" Puzzled, he continued, "Why can't you let me go?" โ
He smiled: "You said it wrong, you didn't let me go." He turned around and threw down a sentence with a smile: "I will ask someone to change the straw stickers in a few days, and you will have to be ready by then." โ
Chonglan sat in place suddenly, the cold sweat on her body almost soaked her middle clothes, Qingge walked in and wiped her sweat with a silk, seeing that her expression was wrong, she hurriedly comforted: "Girl, there is no endless road, don't worry, think about whether there is any other way." โ
Chonglan heard her voice, and her originally sloppy gaze gradually gained some focus, holding her hand tightly, and a mist slowly appeared in her eyes: "When the Chong family was defeated, there were many ruffians who came to spare me, and the second brother was beaten by them and was injured all over his body in order to protect me, if something happened to him..."
Qingge patted her hand, she paused, and said in a dumb voice: "What you said is that I am going to see the princess of the county and ask her to help intercede." โ
Although the princess of the county and her mother had a falling out because of Jiang Yi's indifference to her, she couldn't take care of it much at this time, so she could only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor.
Qingge was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Isn't the girl going to tell Lord Yan about this?" โ
Chonglan was also stunned, and was silent for a long time before nodding and saying, "What you said is that I was negligent, you should send someone to tell him and ask him to help." โ
She didn't expect Yan He, not because she didn't want to ask him for help, but because she was used to doing things alone, and she was not used to relying on him suddenly, and now that she thought of him, she was a little more settled, and she was not as anxious as Fang Cai.
However, she has always been accustomed to preparing with both hands, and while sending someone to tell Yan He, she hurriedly went to see the princess of the county after preparing a post.
When I arrived at the palace of Pingle County, I was handed the post in after a lot of cold words from the porter, and after half an hour, a grim-looking grandmother came out, looked her up and down a few times, and asked, "Is it the third girl of the heavy family?" โ
Chonglan forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and Fu Shen responded: "Exactly." โ
The grandmother nodded: "You come in with me." She took Chonglan through several verandahs, and then through the cascading courtyards, before arriving at the courtyard where the princess of the county lived, and made a gesture of please: "This is it." โ
This courtyard was depressing and deserted, and it didn't look like the princess's residence at all, but Chonglan didn't have the heart to think about these at this time, and hurriedly stepped in, and saw that the door of the nunnery was open, and a middle-aged woman in a silver-gray robe was knocking on the wooden fish and chanting, and she didn't look at it when she heard people coming in.
Chonglan hurriedly walked to the verandah, and while saluting, she interrupted her chanting: "Princess of the county? "If she usually wouldn't be so rude, but now she can only do it in a hurry.
The gavel in the princess's hand was stunned, and she was silent for a long time with her back to her, and then slowly turned around: "It's Sister Lan, I haven't seen you for a long time, you sit." She spoke every word very slowly, like a person in the twilight.
Most of the county lord of Qinghe and Jiang Yi inherited her appearance, even if she was nearly fifty years old, she was still beautiful. Chonglan reluctantly calmed down: "I haven't seen my aunt for a long time..."
The princess raised her hand: "Needless to say, if you say hello, after careful calculation, since I fell out with your mother, I haven't seen you for five or six years, and you must have something to do if you come suddenly." โ
Chonglan could only put down her body: "My aunt is a transparent person, and I won't hide it." She repeated the matter, got up and bowed lowly: "If you think about it, you can only find your aunt, for the sake of my second brother and your nephew, please pull him along." โ
