Episode 53: Comrades have worked hard

As Ji Ye said goodbye to the kings one by one, when he returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he had tossed until midnight. Seeing that Ji Xia Mo was really tired, Ji Ye didn't nag any more, asked Aoki a few words, taught him to serve well, and left with Su Jingyao.

followed the people under the lamp back to the plum garden, Ji Xia Mo dismissed a group of people, and pushed open the door weakly with his shoulders. Back in the room, Ji Xia Mo rushed straight to the bed, but he didn't want to be tripped by a foreign object under his feet before the clinic and almost fell down.

Stabilizing his body, Ji Xiamo bent down to pick up the puppet and looked at it carefully through the moonlight outside the window. When his eyes swept over the scars on the puppet's body, Ji Xiamo's doubts flashed in his heart, I don't know if it was an illusion, he felt that this puppet seemed to be a little different from the first time he picked it up.

Before Ji Xia Mo could think deeply, Jin Wuji had already lit the lamp in the room. Ji Xia Mo was very sleepy, and he only thought that he might not have looked carefully because it was dark, so he casually threw the puppet under the corner of the bed, and the whole person lay on his back on the bed, but he never noticed that the moment he lay down, the silk and satin mattress under him flashed gold.

Jin Wuji took the lamp, came back with hot water and soaked the towel, and when he came to the bed, he saw that Ji Xiamo had fallen asleep in a daze. Looking at the cyan color in Ji Xiamo's eyes, Jin Wuji was more distressed than amused.

couldn't bear to wake up Ji Xiamo, Jin Wuji propped up his body and carefully wiped his face for Ji Xiamo, the slightly hot towel was applied to Ji Xiamo's face, Ji Xiamo rubbed comfortably, and a kitten-like purr overflowed from his mouth, Jin Wuji raised the corners of his lips, his eyes were full of shallow smiles.

"Hmm...... Brother Jin~~" Ji Xiamo struggled to open his eyes a slit, looked at Jin Wuji with sleepy eyes, rubbed Jin Wuji's palm and whispered.

Jin Wuji collapsed his facial features, pretending to be stern and lowered his voice, "Get up and change your clothes and go to sleep again, you are full of alcohol, and you will be uncomfortable again tomorrow." ”

"Don't." Ji Xia Mo grinned stupidly and hugged Jin Wuji like a hairy monkey. "Brother Jin, I'm sleepy."

was suddenly hugged by Ji Xiamo, Jin Wuji didn't notice it for a while, but fortunately he had his free hands to prop up on the bed in time, otherwise, he would have used Ji Xiamo as a human flesh pad.

Jin Wuji raised his head and was about to get angry, when he suddenly felt a pain in his palm, and suddenly his eyes were sharp, and he picked up Ji Xiamo with one hand and bounced off the bed.

Jin Wuji tightly protected Ji Xia Mo in his arms, the palms of his two hands seemed to have been corroded by something, the flesh and blood were blurred, and a faint black gas lingered.

Ji Xiamo hit his head on Jin Wuji's hard chest, only dizzy, and when he came back to his senses, he was also a lot more sober. "Brother Jin? What's wrong? ”

Jin Wuji quickly hid his palm in his sleeve and shook his head silently in the face of Ji Xiamo's inquiring gaze.

Looking at Ji Xiamo's bed, Jin Wuji frowned slightly, and took two steps forward to pick up the quilt with the broken dye in his hand, but it was nothing unusual. After a moment, Jin Wuji bent down and grabbed the mattress, lifted it, and looked coldly at the empty bed board, his black eyes were cold and piercing.

Jin Wuji's sudden 'madness' caught Ji Xiamo a little off guard, Ji Xiamo looked at the unrecognizable bed in a daze, and his head was a little out of signal for a while.

"Brother Jin, what's wrong with you?" Ji Xiamo cautiously poked Jin Wuji's arm and tentatively spoke.

Jin Wuji's brows tightened, and he looked back at Ji Xia Mo and stopped talking.

"Brother Jin?"

"Do you feel uncomfortable?"

"Huh?" Jin Wuji's sternness and solemnity made Ji Xiamo a little uncomfortable, although he didn't understand Jin Wuji's question, he still spun around in place twice. "It's good to be able to eat and drink."

Jin Wuji stared at Ji Xiamo for a long time, and after making sure that Ji Xiamo really didn't lack any parts, Leng Yi's expression softened slightly.

Jin Wuji turned around and stared at the messy bed for a long time, was silent for a moment, and then bent down tentatively and put his two hands on the mattress. After not seeing a reaction for a long time, a trace of doubt flashed in the depths of Jin Wuji's deep dark eyes.

Ji Xiamo leaned over, his eyes dripping on the mattress for a long time, "Brother Jin, my little vault is not on the bed, under the bed." ”

Jin Wuji glanced back at Ji Xiamo and began to clean up the mattress for Ji Xiamo, deliberately covering up the wound in his palm.

After a qiē was cleaned up, Ji Xiamo obediently washed his face, tied his hair, changed his clothes, and then got into the bed.

Seeing Ji Xiamo lying down, Jin Wuji put out the candle and turned around and walked to the door. "Rest well."

"Brother Jin, won't you sleep with me?" Ji Xia Mo leaned on the edge of the bed and whispered to Jin Wuji, who was about to close the door.

Jin Wou-Ki closed the door for a moment, and the half-hidden wooden door covered half of Jin Wouji's face, and also hid his expression at this time. "I'm not with you tonight, let's sleep."

With the sound of gentle rubbing, the last piece of moonlight was cut off outside the door, Ji Xiamo lay on his back on the bed, staring at the roof with two eyes, and his heart was a little panicked.

Can't sleep!!

Jin Wuji sat on the roof, staring indifferently at the night in the distance, the night wind curling his long hair behind him, spreading a patch of ink behind him. A black color that almost blends with the night, lining his facial features is more cold and resolute.

I don't know how long it blew in the wind, but Jin Wuji slowly let go of the hand that was holding the broken dye, and slowly opened it in front of his eyes. The moonlight shines out from behind the dark clouds, reflecting a cold pale in the palm of the hand, and the clear sword cocoon left by holding the sword for many years can be faintly seen.

Jin Wuji's eyes were dark, and although his palms were open, the back of his hand was faintly raised by the force.

There were no scars, and no blood......

Ji Xiamo struggled with sleeping in a separate room with Jin Wuji for less than half an hour, and then he didn't know what time it was. When I woke up the next day, I was still jumping around, walking in the plum garden with my figure-eight feet, shaking my head and shaking my head.

Here, Ji Xiamo had just had breakfast, and over there, Qin Yan was wearing a black and gold official uniform, leading a team of guards to come proudly, with two nostrils on his back to the sky, and he almost plugged his tail up, and the appearance of being beaten made Ji Xiamo want to step on that handsome face.

"Isn't this Lord Qin?" Ji Xia Mo rubbed his hands and leaned over shyly, bowed his hands, and made an exaggerated gift. "The grass people have seen Lord Qin, but they don't know that Lord Qin is driving, and I hope to forgive me for missing it."

Qin Yan kicked at Ji Xiamo's ass, Ji Xiamo dodged with a smile, and Qin Yan glared. "Ji Xiamo, who are you buried! I don't want to be a brother anymore! You dare to talk such nonsense again, believe it or not, Lao Tzu kicks your ass! ”

"Flameout! Flameout! "Ji Xia Mole straightened Qin Yan's hat." are all officials, why are they still so angry? It's like an endocrine disorder! ”

"I'm talking nonsense again." Qin Yan pursed his lips and turned around to signal the escort behind him. "No! See! Ji Xiamo, my brother of Lao Tie. Inform the brothers below, and when you see them in the future, they will all be your own family, and Lao Tzu's brothers should not be bullied. ”

"Yes!"

Ji Xiamo turned around twice with his hands behind his back, and then turned around and gave Qin Yan a crutch. "Okay, Qin Xiaoyan, the title I just gave yesterday has fooled people out today, not bad! Quite a little bit of style. ”

"Fuck off!" Qin Yan pushed Ji Xiamo away angrily, and straightened his collar with a stinky face. "Lao Tzu has a palace card given by the emperor, and he can enter and exit the palace freely!"

Ji Xia Mo snorted, turned to look at the escort, pretended to straighten his chest, and waved his hand. "Comrades have worked hard!"

The convoy "is not hard!! ”

"......" Ji Xia Mo

"Don't make fun of them, why don't you go out and have a celebratory drink?"

"Childe." Aoki walked in with a man dressed as a house slave.

Suppressing the words that came to his mouth, Ji Xia Mo glanced at the person behind Aoki, and only felt that his eyes were raw. "What's wrong with that?"

Aoki stepped forward and saluted. "Childe, someone from the Five Princes' Mansion has come."

The house slave stepped forward and saluted, offering a red sticker in both hands. "Eldest son Ji, the slave came to send an invitation on the order of the prince, and invited the eldest son of Ji to gather on the first floor of the world."

Ji Xiamo took the post and read it roughly, then turned around and handed the post to Qin Yan with a smile. "It's amazing, the fifth prince wants to invite you to drink, Qin Xiaoyan, I'm afraid your wine will be postponed again."

"Lord Qin." The house slave presented another red sticker and said with a smile. "There's also a post from you, and it just so happens that the two sons are here, so the minions don't have to make one less trip."

Qin Yan took the post and smiled, "It seems that the fifth prince is in a hurry than me, the ink of this post has not dried yet, and it will not be long before I think it will be written." ”

"My eyelids are jumping, I'm afraid this wine is not very good." Ji Xia Mo touched his chin and pondered, feeling a little stage frightened in his heart. He had just settled a mess, and he didn't want to come back with a bunch of hot potatoes.

"You're suspicious." Qin Yan turned around and threw a bag of silver to the house slave who passed the message. "Go back to the fifth prince, I will go to the appointment with Ji Xiamo on time tonight."

The house slave took the money, saluted and thanked him, and Aoki led him out again.

After the house slave left, Ji Xiamo gave Qin Yan a punch and scolded angrily. "Qin Xiaoyan, sooner or later, you will fall on your impulsive temper."

Seeing that Ji Xiamo seemed to be angry, Qin Yan rubbed the painful place that was smashed by Ji Xiamo, and followed Ji Xiamo into the house. "This is the banquet of the fifth prince, can you refuse? Besides, what big things can happen at the feet of the Son of Heaven in the imperial city? ”

"It's easy to dodge with open guns, but it's hard to defend against hidden arrows, so it's always right to be careful. Gongsun Yue is narrow-minded and jealous, this time we let him lose face in front of the emperor and civil and military officials, he must be jealous, we should be careful these days. ”

"Come and advise you, fight and brawl me, let's join forces with civil and military, why are you afraid of his little Gongsun Yue?" Qin Yan bumped Ji Xiamo's shoulder, and said with a smile.

Ji Xia Mo smiled, "Anyway, take my words to heart and be vigilant." The little Gongsun Yue is brave and unscrupulous, but don't forget, there is also a Gongsun Rui behind him, this old guy is deep and unfathomable. ”

"Yes, yes." Qin Yan dealt with it absentmindedly, and when Ji Xia Mo saw Qin Yan like this, he also knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he had to pay attention to himself secretly.

"Get out of here!" As soon as Gongsun Rui pushed open the door, a jade cup bloomed at his feet, and the house was already in a mess, and there was not much left of the intact things.

Gongsun Rui's face was ugly, and he shouted angrily. "Stop!"

When Gongsun Yue saw Gongsun Rui coming, although he was angry in his heart, he had to put down the vase in his hand, panting with his head down, and did not look at Gongsun Rui.

Gongsun Rui raised his hand and motioned for his subordinates to come forward to clean up, and walked to Gongsun Yue's side, seeing Gongsun Yue's eyes red, looking extremely aggrieved, he sighed lightly, and his face softened. "A manly man, a small frustration degenerates like this, he is embarrassed not to say it, and he also teaches others to see jokes."

"Daddy!" Gongsun Yue was annoyed, and his face was full of resentment. "What kind of thing is he, Qin Yan! dared to make his son unable to get off the stage in front of so many people! He is just the son of a little general, how can he be appreciated by the emperor, and he will be in the limelight, and he will gain both fame and fortune. ”

"Why? Just because he has more brains than you. "Gongsun Rui nodded at Gongsun Yue's head, and hated that iron could not become steel." Until now, you are still thinking about this, you can't think about the whole story of this matter, and find the reason from it, and you deserve to be calculated. ”

"Calculation? Dad, what do you mean? ”

Gongsun Rui snorted coldly, turned around and walked to the chair and sat down. "It's just a little fight of children's jokes, and afterwards you will casually reward some gold and silver playthings, and have a good time, do you really think that the emperor will be specially sealed for this?"

"Speaking of the game alone, the four-game game is just a howl, with those two strange things, you will definitely lose this time."

"Qin Yan, that guy is tricking me!" Gongsun Yue glared.

"Qin Yan?" Gongsun Rui scoffed. "What big thing can that stupid thing do, but that person named Ji Xia Mo has some ability. If I expected it to be true, this is the man who has calculated this from beginning to end. ”

"Ji Xiamo?" Gongsun Yue was a little dizzy. "What does it have to do with him?"

"Stupid!" Gongsun Rui frowned, annoyed by Gongsun Yue's failure. "You've thought about it at home these days, and you're not allowed to go out and fool around again!"

Gongsun Rui said that, and left regardless of Gongsun Yue's shouting. Gongsun Yue overturned the table and chairs, his anger was unsettled, and he held a grudge against Ji Xiamo and Qin Yan.

Leaving Gongsun Yue's room, Gongsun Rui always felt a little uneasy. seemed to see Gongsun Rui's restlessness, and the old man on the side leaned over. "What does your lord seem to be thinking?"

"The emperor is specially sealed in front of hundreds of officials, and it seems that he is rewarding those two strange things, but in fact, he is secretly taking a stand and suppressing the Protectorate Mansion, I am worried that the emperor has begun to sit still."

"A joke between dolls, adults should not worry about it."

Gongsun Rui shook his head, "Now the temple seems to be calm, but I don't know that the dark waves have already surged, the emperor is not the day to prevent me, I am worried, the emperor has now given birth to the heart of me." ”

"Adult ......"

"Prevention is always right, and we have to prevent it."

The old man pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement. "How are you going to deal with that?"

"Wait and see what happens, first find a few reliable people to check this Ji Xia Mo, I have a hunch that this Ji Xia Mo is not easy to deal with."

"Yes! My lord. ”
