Ji Jiu suddenly looked at me and said, "Xiaolin, I think the problem may be me?" ”

The words of this second monk who were puzzled made me stunned on the spot. 【Book by】

Looking at Ji Jiu in confusion, I asked in a tentative tone after a while, "Are you joking?" ”

It seems that it is to appease me, who was frightened by the fierce folk customs of Hengcheng during the day and has not yet come back to my senses?

was besieged on the street, and this matter itself has nothing to do with them, and now Ji Jiu has taken all the responsibility on himself, is this person in the water in his brain?

Glancing at the other two Ji Jiu's diehards around him, although this sentence came to his lips, he still couldn't say it.

"You two go back first."

Ji Jiu's gaze stayed on me for a while, then raised his hand and raised it gently, and after the steward and the attendant who was driving the car saluted him, he consciously withdrew from the house.

With the sound of the door closing, it wasn't long before there was a movement of human voices next door.

Now, there are only two people left in the room, Ji Jiu and me, he should have something to say to me, but he doesn't want those two to participate.

The night breeze came in through the window lattice, blowing the corners of his clothes, and Ji Jiu sat on the chair by the window, half of his face hidden in the moonlight.

"Xiaolin, what I just said is because of me, maybe you still don't understand it for a while."

"Who's to say it isn't?" I simply walked over, sat down across from him with my elbows crossed, looked at him seriously, and said, "I thought you had a fever when you said such a sentence in a dignified manner?" ”

"It's going to be a few years ago," Ji Jiu said in a low voice, "When I came to Hengcheng today, there was nothing strange about the reaction of those women on the street. ”

"Although it is a little more excessive than we expected, and it is more exaggerated than the previous rumors, but Hengcheng is different from other places, and I said that men and women are not proportional at all in this area."

A smile appeared on Ji Jiu's lips, and his knuckles tapped lightly on the cup on the table and said, "Xiaolin, they saw you get off the car on the street." Come up and surround you, I think" Ji Jiu's expression was a little melancholy, his unspeakable eyes darkened slightly, and his tone was half reminiscing and half melancholy. He whispered, "It's just out of love and novelty for the handsome young man." “

His words make it clear that there is a hidden foreshadowing and turning point to come.

A trace of doubt flashed in my eyes, and I looked directly at him and said, "What about Gu Dart Master?" Admiration and novelty seem to be a little inappropriate to put on her. ”

"You will never tell me that a person like her who walks the rivers and lakes at a young age has been to countless places in Sealand, will there be fewer beautiful young men she has seen?"

I met Ji Jiu's gaze, looked at him quietly and said:

"I couldn't figure out why she looked at me differently, and I didn't understand what she meant by coming to the street to save me from the crowd on the spot. People on the street know it. ”

"Gu Dao is hot, on a whim?" I think back to what it was. Shaking his head, he said, "No." ”

Glancing out the window, I paused slowly and said, "What do you say she's for?" ”

Suddenly, another possibility came to mind: "A few of us came all the way from the East Courtyard, could it be that she knew what news came to us?" ”

"Or even that she herself is somewhat involved in the East Courtyard?"

Don't blame me for being so associated, there must be a demon when things go wrong!

"That won't be." Ji Jiu lowered his head and said. "I was in the car on the way to the dart game, and I thought about it."

"I think she may have seen the bounty order that was sent to the rivers and lakes a few years ago."

"Bounty order?" The utterly unfamiliar statement made my eyes even more puzzled, "I've been in Sealand for a few days, and no one has ever told me about the bounty order. ”

The bounty orders seem to be linked to fugitive suspects, or to be saddled with some shocking case.

I searched my head to make sure I hadn't done anything harmful. As for the guy in front of me, I quickly glanced at him and concluded: The water in the past is too deep, it's really hard to say.

I turned my eyes out the window and saw the shadows of the trees swaying in the wind, and it was quiet outside.

I turned my head and glanced at Ji Jiu and said, "The bounty order has something to do with you?" "Not bad." "In what aspect?" I wondered what he had done, but immediately I thought about it again. The point should be on who issued the bounty order?

It was sent to people on the rivers and lakes. "You've seen the person who issued the bounty order." Ji Jiu seemed to know what I was thinking, and said emphatically, "I'm talking about the person who issued the reward order. “

My mind was spinning quickly, and I subconsciously raised my head and stared at him and said, "You said it." Is it the one with whom you secretly meet? The guest who wants to kidnap you? ”

Apart from her, I really can't think of anyone else who would have anything to do with Ji Jiu, Lord Chaohua, who was brought into the palace by the empress.

The reward order issued by the whole country is not needed by the empress.

The other party wants to compete with the empress's full strength, and openly reward other people's sweethearts, can he do it with courage alone?

Is it the rhythm of love and killing?

If you think so, I really admire these two can still discuss the plan to escape together on the hill outside the east courtyard after the matter has passed!

I sighed in my heart, my face was silent, my eyes stayed on Ji Jiu's gray hair, and I lowered my voice and said, "No, she knows that you are in the East Courtyard, and what kind of reward order is issued." “

Ji Jiu explained: "It was after the incident in the palace that I was injured Yan zhòng, and I was secretly sent to the bamboo garden in the east courtyard by the empress at that time, with the intention of letting me recuperate there with peace of mind.

"She had to find a place that people couldn't guess, but she also had to be relatively independent and not be disturbed."

"As for that one, I don't know exactly when she found out about my whereabouts, but before that, she was probably in a hurry and couldn't find me anywhere, so she sent the reward order to the people of Sealand."

Having said that, I have a clue and finally understand the ins and outs of the matter.

But now it's different from the past, that person already knows Ji Jiu's whereabouts, a few years later, is that so-called bounty order still valid? "Whether I was sent out of the Sealand Palace and placed in the bamboo garden in the East Courtyard, or whether she found me and sent secret agents to contact me, these are secrets that cannot be said."

Ji Jiu once again guessed what I was thinking, and explained to me: "It is impossible for the people on the rivers and lakes outside to know no matter what, otherwise the two of us would not be sitting here and talking now." "I understand what you're saying." I nodded, "But where did you see that Master Gu knew about the bounty order?" "Can you confirm that this qiē is not your guess but the real situation?"

Ji Jiu looked at me and said calmly: "In your words, I'm not completely sure, the above are all my guesses." ”

I propped my head up on my elbows, sighed inexplicably, shook my head and said, "If you want to escape from your suffering original family, you can run away, you can't be safe, what are you doing to provoke so many women?" ”

"I think it's really a mess between the three of you."

"Originally, you were entangled with yourself, and you could entangle as much as you liked, but you had to mix in irrelevant people."

After complaining a few words one after another, I saw the smile on Ji Jiu's lips, and said to him angrily: "Whether it's a reward order, or the empress's sister-in-law, it's all your romantic account, but the problem is that I am the person she saved on the street." ”

"Based on what I've seen, I'll just say what I saw, she didn't pay much attention to you from beginning to end, so I don't think your reasons make sense."

I didn't hit him, and I'm confused about that.

"Big brother, I'm skeptical."

Ji Jiu didn't speak, his eyes turned around the room, and he saw a wooden shelf on the side of the corner of the house, several layers of shelves, I don't know what I found on it, he got up and walked over slowly, and when he came back, there was one more thing in his hand - a mirror.

He pushed the mirror in front of me and said, "That's why." ”

Suddenly, I understood.

Today's Ji Jiu, his appearance is obviously different from that of a few years ago.

But I still remember what happened on the first day I arrived in the West Courtyard.

I was in the East Courtyard, and I had heard more than one person talk about it, saying that it was a similarity between me and Ji Jiu, which meant that if what he speculated was true, Gu Dart Master had indeed seen that reward order, and now we were here with her.

I speechlessly looked at myself in the men's clothes in the glasses, and looked at Ji Jiu sitting opposite, my eyes met, and I saw a trace of unspeakable sadness in his eyes.

He could have imagined that he would be looking for me as a stand-in, but the current situation told him that it was very likely that when the main lord saw me, things would go off the expected trajectory.

After being silent for most of the quarter, I took a few sips of the tea on the table to ease the complicated feelings at the moment, calm my mood, and I discussed with him.

"That bounty has been circulating and hasn't been canceled?"

Ji Jiu was silent for a moment and said: "I really haven't heard the follow-up news, and there are still many people who think it is effective." ”

"But in this way, there is one biggest problem, Hengcheng is only the first stop we stay, here Gu Dart Master is walking around the rivers and lakes, then the next stop is another place, there will be other people who have seen the bounty order."

"Indeed."

"Isn't that a day of eternal peace?"

Suddenly I felt irritable, slapped my hand on the table, and slipped my glass.

It's a coincidence or not, but it's like him, how is this good? Can't it be that before the Sealand country arrived, I was tied up by the people on the rivers and lakes and sent to that noble man to ask for a reward, right?

It's horrible!

In that case, what else do I have to run, it is better to stay in the East Courtyard instead of Ji Jiu and wait for the main master to kidnap me, it is more convenient and fast, it is very tiring to hurry.

No, I have the easiest way to get out, I just need to restore the women's clothes, what does it have to do with the bounty order?!
