Chapter 300: The Chicken in the Soup
After returning to the wing, Jiang Mi was still restless, she thought about it and decided to go back to Jiang's mansion again, explain the situation to the three mothers, and ask them their opinions by the way.
So, Jiang Mi went out again.
Today's Shudu is quite lively, with endless traffic, and Jiang Mi's carriage is blocked in the streets as he walks.
Jiang Mi was so preoccupied that he didn't notice this. When she found that the carriage had not moved for a long time, she lifted the curtain and was about to ask, when suddenly, a familiar call came from behind her, "Ah Mi." β
It's Fan Yuxiu's voice!
Since slapping Emperor Shu in the face, Jiang Mi has never contacted these former friends in order not to affect them. Now seeing Fan Yuxiu running towards her without any guilt, Jiang Mi couldn't help but be a little moved.
Fan Yuxiu was riding a horse, she squeezed to Jiang Mi's side, met her bright eyes, Fan Yuxiu said a few words to the people behind her, then climbed into Jiang Mi's carriage and sat beside her.
Fan Yuxiu pulled Jiang Mi's arm and asked her to face herself, she whispered: "Ah Mi, I heard that the Southern Tang Dynasty envoy is really your former brother Jiang Wu?"
Jiang Mi nodded.
Fan Yuxiu didn't look happy, she frowned and said, "Since he is your brother, why do you ask Your Majesty to marry you?"
Jiang Mi smiled: "My brother should be here to protect me." β
Fan Yuxiu raised her head, she stared at Jiang Mi for a while, and after biting her lip, she suddenly said: "But I heard that your brother has a fiancΓ©e in Nantang!"
Jiang Mi was stunned.
Jiang Mi hadn't figured out whether she should be happy or unhappy, Fan Yuxiu said again: "And I listened to the eldest brother." When Li Wu asked His Majesty to marry, he didn't say that he would grant you the position of wife!"
Seeing Jiang Mi a little stunned, Fan Yuxiu bit her lip and said: "How can Li Wu be like this? How important is marriage to a woman? He has a brother and sister friendship with you, even if he wants to protect you, he doesn't have to marry himself, not to mention, he will have another wife!" After a pause, Fan Yuxiu said solemnly: "Ah Mi, since I saw your brother again, I always feel that he is like two people before...... Think about it, he really wants to protect you. Or do you want to ruin you?"
Jiang Mi opened her mouth and stammered.
After a while. Jiang Mi lowered his eyes and said, "I'll ask clearly." β
"It should be asked. Fan Yuxiu said: "I don't know if I'm wrong, I always feel that you are carefully currying favor with your brother, as if you are afraid that he will be angry...... Mi, it's about your life. This is not the time to be confused!"
Fan Yuxiu came out to meet Jiang Mi on purpose. After warning her. Because Jiang Mi was now the object of Emperor Shu's disgust, Fan Yuxiu didn't dare to let too many people notice that they were together, so he got on his horse and left.
After Fan Yuxiu left. Jiang Mi has been thinking. After a while, she said decisively: "Go back to the embassy!"
"Yes!"
This time, Jiang Mi waited until the night was getting darker and Li Wu's room was no longer haunted before looking for him.
When he came to the door, Jiang Mi knocked on the door and called, "Brother, are you there?"
After a while, Li Wu's indifferent voice came, "In." β
There has never been a moment for Jiang Mi to listen to Li Wu's voice so calmly. She raised her head and let the wind blow through her forehead, and thought to herself: Since we met again, my brother has never really been gentle with me, even when he spoke!
Thinking of this, she slowly pushed the door in.
Li Wu was sitting on the couch flipping through the bamboo slips, and after hearing Jiang Mi's footsteps coming in, he didn't look up, and Jiang Mi noticed that his brows were slightly furrowed.
Jiang Mi slowly walked to the opposite side of Li Wu and sat down slowly.
After a while, Jiang Mi whispered, "Brother, why are you marrying me?"
Li Wu ignored it.
Jiang Mi raised her head, she looked at Li Wu seriously, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, this matter is very important to me!" After a pause, she said, "Your answer is very important to me!"
Jiang Mi has always been a soft person, and she has an almost flattering obedience to the people around her. As in the past, when Li Wu was still Jiang Wu, Jiang Mi always relied on him, just like the three mothers, after Jiang Mi found out that they were really good for her, no matter how difficult their requests were, she always tried her best to complete them!
Jiang Mi's character was developed after her mother was seriously ill. When she was young, Jiang Mi also used to have sex because of the pampering of her parents. But when she was eleven years old, she ran out of Wucheng with her friends because she didn't tell her family, causing her mother to brave the heavy rain to look for her, so she contracted a cold, and finally died of a chronic illness. Since then, Jiang Mi has had a knot in her heart. She always felt that if she had obeyed her mother's wishes that time and had not run out to frighten her, her mother would not have died, and she would not have become a fatherless and motherless orphan.
It can be said that with Jiang Mi's personality, when she behaves tough in front of Li Wu, she usually prepares for the worst in her heart.
Li Wu slowly raised his head.
In the fluttering candlelight, he looked at the beautiful girl who was as beautiful as a flower in the candlelight, and after a while, Li Wu put down the bamboo slip, he clasped his hands to his chest, and said coldly: "You want to know why I married you?"
Jiang Mi whispered, "Yes!"
That's a good question. Li Wu said angrily: "The reason is very simple, my prince's mansion is very large, and it is no problem to raise one more person left and right!"
Jiang Mi lowered her eyes, and she said in a dumb voice: "My brother wants to protect me, and I don't need to marry......
Li Wu sneered, and he said mockingly: "Don't need the form of marriage? Do you mean, take you back as a sister? and then find you a wishful husband to marry?"
Jiang Mi looked up at him.
Her eyes were sparkling, and it was clear that what Li Wu said was exactly what she meant.
Finding this, Li Wu's face was not good-looking, and he said sarcastically: "Do you want to go back to the past? Don't think about it, that kind of good thing is impossible!"
Seeing Jiang Mi looking at him stubbornly, Li Wu's expression became more and more gloomy. After a while, he picked up the book and said impatiently: "You are the daughter of the Xu family, I think it will be great to give you a bite to eat for the sake of your beauty." I still treat you as a sister, are you worthy?"
......
Jiang Mi stood up, she turned around and walked out. When she walked to the door, she held on to the door and glanced back at Li Wu.
Although she had never wanted to admit it before, she could now see that this man sitting in the candlelight, with a dignified face and an indifferent expression, was completely different from her brother. Her brother's face is honest and his smile is gentle, and the man in front of him is not ...... The man in front of him has always been impatient when he looks at her, and he is always patient when he talks to her!
......
Just as Jiang Mi walked out of the door, he was greeted by several deputy envoys of the Southern Tang Dynasty striding over. Jiang Mi had just walked more than a dozen steps before he came to the shade of a camphor tree, when he heard a voice reporting to Li Wuyu: "My lord, Cui Zixuan asks to see you!"
Cui Zixuan?
Jiang Mi quickly turned around.
In the wing, Li Wu's voice suddenly became angry, and he shouted violently: "What is he doing here?
There was a moment of silence in the wing.
At this moment, at the door in front, a clear and leisurely inquiry voice came, "Li Wuke asks to see Cui Zixuan!"
As he spoke, he begged to see him, but as soon as his voice fell, everyone saw Cui Zixuan striding towards him surrounded by more than a dozen guards.
Cui Zixuan's steps were very urgent, which was completely different from his usual grace. When he got closer, Jiang Mi, who was standing in an inconspicuous corner under the shade of the tree, saw that his dark robe was stained with mud, and a corner of his sleeve was sprinkled, and he had lost a lot of weight, the dark circles under his eyes were obvious, and a pair of eyes were amazingly bright on the handsome face with a blue scum!
Cui Zixuan, who is so dusty, is something that everyone present has never seen.
As soon as Li Wu stepped out of the compartment door, he met Cui Zixuan's appearance.
At that moment, Li Wu laughed. After laughing for a while, Li Wu mocked: "What's going on? Why hasn't Cui Lang been as thin as a yellow flower and dirty as a chicken in soup after only a few months?"
Among the people in the Southern Tang Dynasty, there are quite a few who do not deal with Cui Zixuan. Hearing Li Wu say this, those people also laughed.
There are really a lot of people laughing, and occasionally, someone is still there and says: "Everyone in the world says that Cui Zixuan is also personable even if he is on the execution ground, it is really rare to see him so disheveled." β
Cui Zixuan didn't care about the ridicule of these people at all, he strode up to Li Wu and gave him a deep look, and then, Jiang Mi heard Cui Zixuan's voice hoarse and solemnly said: "Brother Li, Cui came in a hurry and visited Your Excellency at night, but it was to ask Your Excellency to marry Ling Mei as his wife!"
