Chapter 60: Luring the Wolf into the House
"Sit down, what's wrong?" Zhiyi walked over from the dresser and sat at the guest table looking at Zhao Zixuan.
"I ...... I want to make it clear to you that it's about Xuanxuan. Zhao Zixuan lowered his head, like a child who had done something wrong.
"Well, you say, I'll listen!" The first time he took the initiative to mention Xuanxuan, did he want to tell himself about their past?! Zhiyi replied calmly.
"Don't you want to know when it started? I'm starting to like you! Zhao Zixuan looked at Zhiyi with a smile.
"You keep my handkerchief, it should be that trip to Hangzhou with Princess Xuanyang." Zhiyi lowered her head and played with her hands, as if she was a little nervous, but in fact, she didn't know and was very curious.
"No, earlier!" Zhao Zixuan still looked at Tang Zhiyi with a smile.
"Earlier?! How is it possible, are you? Zhiyi raised her head, and the moment she met Zhao Zixuan's eyes, her heartbeat began to speed up again, this annoying heartbeat.
"Remember that banquet at the palace?! You chased Tang Yunchen to the racecourse, and your eyes were full of Zhao Yi at that time, you shouldn't have noticed me behind him! Zhao Zixuan lowered his head and smiled bitterly.
Yes, it was him who was full of body and mind at that time, and it was all him...... Zhiyi bowed her head and was silent.
"Later, I met Xuanxuan, when I fell into an ambush, she saved my life, so I almost lost her own life, and then she asked me to marry her as a reward, at that time you were about to marry my brother, my heart died, anyway, you married someone else, what difference does it make if I marry anyone, so I agreed to Xuanxuan, and then it became you to marry into the house, I was happy and sad, because I knew that you must be very desperate, if I let me have you like this, I would rather watch you happy, even if you are not me!" Zhao Zixuan said a bunch of words that were pressed in his heart for an unknown amount of time.
Zhiyi on the side just listened quietly.
"But my avoidance ended up making me farther away from you, away from my brother, and farther away from Tang Yunchen, so I just want to do it all over again now, and Xuanxuan ......" Zhao Zixuan lowered his head and frowned, "I lost her, but I have to repay her kindness, she is an orphan and homeless, and I still have to take care of her before she finds a home." ”
Zhiyi still bowed her head and was silent, she didn't know what to say, and her own heart was still in chaos.
"I say all this, I just don't want you to misunderstand!" Zhao Zixuan looked at Zhiyi cautiously.
"Misunderstanding? She wasn't by your side on the first day, and everything that could happen happened didn't happen sooner! Zhiyi still lowered her head and replied softly.
"I'm relieved that you can think so!" Zhao Zixuan smiled, "She went back to the barracks late last night, and just sent a letter saying that she was seriously injured by robbers halfway through the way, and asked me to go back." ”
"Last night?" How can it be so coincidental, they were also assassinated last night, is there any connection here?! Zhiyi wanted to speak and stopped.
"It's just a coincidence, don't worry about it!" Zhao Zixuan also saw Zhiyi's doubts, and hurriedly comforted, "I'll set off later, after settling Xuanxuan, I'll come over again in the evening, you'd better not go out!" ”
"Yes, go ahead!" Zhiyi nodded.
After Zhao Zixuan left, Tang Zhiyi took out the handkerchief, which was crookedly embroidered with her name, she hates embroidery the most on weekdays, and I don't know who prescribed it, this lady must be able to do it, although the embroidery is not good, but it will finally be, this handkerchief is her first work.
Yan'er quickly entered the door with breakfast, and when she saw that Zhiyi was the only one in the room, she asked, "The general left so soon?" I even brought him extra breakfast! ”
"Let's put it on, take my guzheng with me, I want to go to the pavilion in the back garden to play a song!" After Zhiyi finished speaking, she got up and walked out.
"Okay!" It seems that the young lady has something on her mind again, every time she is in turmoil, she will play the guzheng and go well, but Yan'er didn't dare to ask more, so she followed out with the guzheng.
At this time, Uncle Sun and Maruko were busy with the affairs in the manor, and walked to the rainy inn halfway up the mountain together, ready to open for business, although the store has invited more than a dozen guys, but things big and small still have to rely on Uncle Sun and Maruko, the old and the young, to command.
Uncle Sun opened the door of the inn, and was directing the men to wipe the tables and chairs, and wipe the floor, and after a while, a group of people came to the door, with the goods of two large carts, and a carriage, after the carriage stopped, a middle-aged man walked down from the carriage, slightly fat, and his dress did not look like a local, it seemed to be a person from Donou.
"Boss, give us four rooms and a storeroom!?" The middle-aged man walked into the inn.
Uncle Sun hurriedly greeted him and looked at the two large truckloads of goods at the door. "Guest officer, are you staying in a hotel?"
"Of course it's a hotel, otherwise what do you want a room for?" The middle-aged man replied impatiently.
"That's the case, you see it's still very early, you look at it with the goods to do business, you live in the hotel at this time, it will delay your trip, it's better for you to hurry, you can get to the county in the afternoon, the inn is many and big, although we usually have many guests, but there has never been a cargo to come, so the small shop has no warehouse." Uncle Sun has lived for most of his life, and he feels that something is wrong at first glance, this rainy inn is halfway up the mountain, these people don't go to the road early in the morning, but go around to the mountain to invest in the inn, there must be something weird.
"Hehe... The boss really likes to laugh, who doesn't know that this rainy inn is the best inn in Yongjia County, no warehouse is fine, this goods can be put in your material room first, I will still give the money. The middle-aged man smiled and stroked his beard.
"Guest officer, let's be honest, the shop is already full, and there are not so many rooms!" Uncle Sun still politely refused the guest.
"Full?!" The middle-aged man stretched his face, touched his beard, and looked at the floor as if thinking about something.
Suddenly there was a sharp cough in the carriage, and then a frail young woman stepped down.
"Daddy...... Father...... I'm not feeling well......! The woman walked a few steps before she lost her strength, and the middle-aged man hurried over to help her.
"Boss, this is my daughter, although I am doing business with goods, but the most important thing today is to take my daughter to see a doctor, I heard that there is a medical hall here, and the divine doctor is ready to cure the disease, so I brought my daughter here early in the morning." The middle-aged man suddenly bowed his head and sighed sadly.
Uncle Sun's old heart is the softest, and he watched the young woman cough violently in front of his eyes, and he actually vomited blood.
"Daughter...... Daughter...... You can't be okay, if anything happens, I'll ...... I'm not alive anymore! The middle-aged man suddenly cried.
"Alas... Okay, there's a rest room in the backyard, it's where our guys usually rest, you take your daughter to rest first, and the doctor from the hospital will come over, and you can go after seeing a doctor! Uncle Sun sighed, let them stay for a while, there shouldn't be anything wrong.
"Thank you, boss, you two helped the young lady in!" The middle-aged man burst into tears and laughed, and hurriedly summoned two family members to help the young woman in.
