Jiang Xi suspected that Liu Jing had secretly done something. Because she had seen with her own eyes how those people who flew the eaves and walked on the wall came and went freely in the Xu Mansion.

Thinking of Liu Jing's cold eyes, and the situation after being kidnapped by him that night, Jiang Xi only felt that the hairs on her body stood up.

That's it, that's it, she only fed this secret medicine to pigs and dogs. As long as Liu Jing doesn't come to her, she won't ask any more.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xi couldn't help but exhale again, raised her hand and wiped her sideburns.

Her back was already soaked with cold sweat. That humiliating night, even when I think about it now, still makes her unspeakably afraid.

Speaking of which, since the last Wuyang Bofu Flower Banquet, Liu Jing has never sent anyone to look for her.

However, this did not make Jiang Xi much easier.

Once again, she had broken her errand. On the flower banquet of Wuyang Bofu, Liu Jing should have been Fu Si's veil, but who thought that it had become Xu Yun's veil.

After knowing the whole story, Jiang Xi didn't have a day of peace of mind.

Every day, every hour, is a torment for her. She was afraid that when she came back to her senses, Liu Jing's clammy and cold smile appeared in front of her again.

Fortunately, she heard that Liu Jing was sick, and she is still recuperating in the Zhongwang Mansion.

Jiang Ji really hoped that he could not afford to be sick.

While thinking about it, she walked through the hall, and then turned a path made of grape trellises, and a month before the cave gate, it was Xu Yun's residence.

"Miss Jiang is here." A little maid saw Jiang Xi from a distance and greeted her with a smile. And he came forward to lead the way.

Jiang Ji also smiled and said hello, and followed her into the courtyard.

There was an indescribable joy in the whole courtyard.

Whether it is the servants walking in the courtyard, or the birds hanging under the porch, or the flowers and trees under the steps in front of the porch, they are all full of joy. Even the little girl who led the way was full of smiles, and her attitude towards Jiang Xi was much better than before.

Xu Yun and Liu Jing's marriage has basically been decided. The Xu Mansion is now quietly preparing a dowry, and according to Cao, there will be a will for marriage after the New Year.

In this way, Jiang Ji is the concubine who marries. In addition to her, there are three other good family daughters selected by the Cao family. will also accompany Xu Yun to marry together. The four of them now need to come over every day to accompany Xu Yun to learn some rules and etiquette. These are known to the people. Jiang Xi is no longer what she used to be, and from now on she will be a person who will serve the loyal king, so her attitude towards her is much more polite.

Jiang Xi lowered her head and rested, lowered her eyebrows and sleeves, and walked all the way to the main room. Xu Yunshang changed clothes in the western room. Only a layer of mallet fan greeted her: "You came early." Sit outside first. The Master will come after a while. ”

Jiang Ji replied "yes" and stood in the position of the head on the left, without even raising his head.

After about half a stick of incense, Xu Yun also changed his clothes. Probably because of a good mood. After she came to Mingjian, she waved away from everyone, leaving Jiang Xi alone to speak.

"Your Highness asked someone to bring me something." Xu Yunwei said a little shyly, but there was joy in his tone that could not be hidden.

This is still some time ago, the princess's sister-in-law was imprisoned, and the East Palace has been in a hurry recently, and King Zhong must be happy. These days, Xu Yun has received a lot of rewards from King Zhong and Wu Guifei intermittently, which makes her feel good every day.

"His Royal Highness attaches so much importance to the girl, and after marriage, the piano will definitely sound together." Jiang Xi smiled softly, looking very respectful.

Xu Yun looked at her carefully from the corner of his eyes, and saw that she was wearing a fish-white dark embroidered grass pattern stand-up collar jacket, but the skirt under her head was grape brown, with an old stone blue gray squirrel cloak on her hand, her hair was pulled into the simplest bun, and she was only fixed with two plain silver hairpins.

There was a smile in Xu Yun's eyes, and he said lightly: "You are really old-fashioned when you say this." I'm dressed well today, and I look like a housekeeper mother. ”

Jiang Xi lowered her head and said: "If it can be beneficial to the girl, I am willing to be a housekeeper mother." ”

Hearing this, Xu Yun's heart became more and more happy.

When Jiang Ji first came, Xu Yun thought that this was another person who was bent on climbing up, and he was quite disgusted in his heart. However, after getting along for so long, she found that Jiang Xi was really not interested in Liu Jing, and even avoided it a little, so her attitude towards Jiang Xi now was better than Su Xi.

"If that's what you think, I'll help you." Xu Yun said with a smile, but a pair of eyes were fixed on Jiang Xi's face, observing her reaction.

Jiang Xi sneered in her heart, but there was a grateful look on her face, and she said, "Thank you, girl." ”

Xu Yun smiled and waved his hand, took a sip of the teacup, looked at the sky outside, and frowned.

The three concubines haven't come yet, but they asked her to wait here, which is really decent.

Xu Yun's face turned cold.

Noticing the change in her mood, Jiang Xi immediately asked softly, "What's wrong with the girl?" Is the tea too hot? Do you want me to get you a new one? ”

Xu Yun shook his head, Fang was about to say something, his mind turned slightly, thinking that her mother taught her that she didn't have to take these concubines to heart at all, they were just playthings like cats and dogs. She put down the teacup, and when she spoke, she had already changed her words: "No, I remembered a sentence I occasionally heard from my father to my mother two days ago, and my father said that the saint has recently violated the dragon's body, and his old man worries about it day and night. ”

Speaking of this, Xu Yun was really a little worried.

If the Holy One continues to be so sick, it is unknown when the marriage will be decreed in the coming year.

Thinking like this, Xu Yun's brows furrowed again.

Jiang Xi lowered her eyes and looked at the corner of her skirt and did not speak.

This kind of talk is not something that a concubine can take on her. However, this news is really good news. If the saint can continue to be sick like this today, the marriage between King Zhong and Xu Yun will definitely be delayed for a while.

Jiang Xi rubbed the patterns on the silver bracelet hanging from her wrist, thinking about it in her heart.

At this moment, I suddenly heard the voice of the little maid outside: "I have seen Madame." ”

With the words, I saw the door curtain lifted, and Cao walked over.

"Mother, why are you here?" Xu Yun immediately greeted him, and Jiang Xi also stepped forward to squat down to salute, and then stood respectfully on the side.

Cao Shi seemed to be in a hurry, with a little worry hidden between his eyebrows, and as soon as he entered the door, he said: "An'an, you ......"

Speaking of this, she suddenly stopped, frowned and glanced at Jiang Xi next to her, and said lightly: "You step back first." ”

Jiang Xi snorted secretly, bowed down and retreated.

When the door of the house was closed again, Cao Shi took Xu Yun's hand and frowned, "Ming'er, you and I will go to Jiming Temple to burn incense." ”

Xu Yun was stunned for a moment, and asked in surprise: "Go to Jiming Temple?" It's almost the end of the year, how does my mother remember to burn incense at this time? Is something wrong? With that, she helped Cao Shi to sit down, poured tea with her own hands and handed it over.

Cao Shi took the teacup, stroked Xu Yun's hair, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just a nightmare a few days ago, and there have been a lot of things in Beijing recently, I want to go to the temple to burn peace incense." (To be continued.) )
