After a meal, both of them were silent in the slight coldness of the early spring night in Cangzhou. They sat in front of the window and watched the bright starry sky high and far away.

"In the future, you must take care." Jiang Fan was the first to speak.

"Definitely." She replied.

Jiang Fan chuckled, with a look of distrust on his face, and even a distrustful tone, and said, "You are still not ruthless enough." ”

Chen Qiuniang knew what he was referring to in dealing with Chai Yu.

To be honest, it's not that she hasn't thought about the worst, and she doesn't want to be the Virgin White Lotus, others have sold you, and you still think that people have made this decision because of their poor lives. Chai Yu has a life-saving grace for her, and she has protected her with her life, she should not kill her life-saving benefactor because of a possibility that has never happened.

If so, what is the difference between her and the most vicious people in history? In the world, people do something and don't do something; To live, people must have faith and principles for themselves, even though these principles may put them in a difficult situation.

"Do you want me to be like that? Just because of a possibility that has never happened, he will kill his life-saving benefactor. She asked slowly.

Jiang Fan still looked out the window, and replied nonchalantly: "Cao Cao has achieved a grand hegemony in troubled times. ”

"In the end, it's just a pile of bones." She retorted.

Jiang Fan turned his face to look at her, frowned slightly, and criticized her: "Qiu Niang, you are angry with me." You weren't like that before. ”

"I have never been angry with you. I used to be like that. She met his scrutinizing gaze and replied calmly.

"Yes. You are such a character, whenever someone gives you a drop of water, you will definitely repay it. His tone was a little helpless.

Chen Qiuniang lowered her eyes, although the man in front of her didn't have much contact, he also understood her.

They didn't say anything to each other, and the morning reading was quiet all around, and although it was cold in the spring night, there were night birds that couldn't suppress their joy fluttering in the forest, occasionally calling in a crisp voice.

The two were silent for a while, and Jiang Fan broke the silence and asked Chen Qiuniang to play a song for him.

"My piano skills are the axe of the class, and the day before yesterday, I heard Youqi say that your piano skills are outstanding." Chen Qiuniang raised her eyes to look at him.

Jiang Fan leaned against the window, and the white-robed young man had an indescribable elegance.

"Zhang Ergongzi will also praise me, it's really rare." Jiang Fan laughed, then sighed again, and said, "That day, you and Hongmei used hypnotic incense on me, and I like the song you played and sang to me very much, can you play and sing it for me?" ”

Now, with parting imminent, how could she refuse a reasonable request from a friend? So, she smiled and said, "It's better to be respectful than to obey." Today, let me sing a song for you. ”

Then, she Shi Shiran got up and walked to the door, and loudly ordered Nianqiu to bring the pipa. After a while, Nianqiu brought the pipa, she tuned it, and said, "This one is "Cai Wei", Brother Jiang Fan must know that it was adapted by my master." ”

"Well, I liked it last time I heard you sing, and I want to listen to it again today, but I also want to ask you for the score." Jiang Fan said as he sat upright.

"I can only tell you that I don't know much about this score." She laughed.

"It's okay, just tell me later." Jiang Fan chuckled.

Chen Qiuniang sat upright, hugged the pipa and played your ancient song, the voice of the girl in the valley of the yellow warbler was ethereal, as if from the sky, from the pre-Qin era where the ancient style prevailed. She sang slowly: "In the past, I was in the past, the willows were still in the past, and now I am thinking, the rain and snow are falling." Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what do I want? Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what I want. ”

"Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what I want!" A song slowly fell in this repeated cappella.

She put down the pipa, but saw Jiang Fan on the opposite side leaning against the window, as if there were tears in his eyes. It's just that the candle flame is flickering, and she can't see it clearly.

"The words of the ancient song—" she said.

But he got up suddenly, and came to her at once. Chen Qiuniang was taken aback, thinking that he would make some overstep of the rules, but he stopped in front of her, and the two were close at hand. After he was stunned for a moment, he took the pipa in her hand and walked to the soft cushion on the side to sit down, and played and sang "Cai Wei" again.

Chen Qiuniang's voice is ethereal, while Jiang Fan's male voice is quiet and simple, and there is an era full of ancient relics.

"How?" At the end of the song, he asked proudly.

"It seems that Youqi is never exaggerating." She looked at him and smiled.

"He is never exaggerated, but he has never thought that he is a hero of the world, and he carries everything himself." Jiang Fan said as he put the pipa on the table on the side, then looked at Chen Qiuniang very seriously and asked, "Don't you want to know what happened in Bianjing this time, so he was willing to leave you and leave in a hurry?" ”

He struck her on the heart word by word. She has always understood this truth, and she also knows that Bianjing must be extremely dangerous, otherwise Zhang Ci would not have gone out in person, and would not be willing to lose her in Cangzhou. But he said that let her enjoy it, and he was in control of all the wind and rain, and there was no need to worry.

He said, and she believed.

But is that really the case? Chen Qiuniang didn't dare to delve into it, but Jiang Fan directly said the facts in her heart at this moment, forcing her to the point of no way back.

"He will go, and he will have a reason; A man like him must be able to handle anything. She said.

Jiang Fan suddenly smiled sarcastically and asked, "Chen Qiuniang, why did you come to Cangzhou alone in disguise?" took the risk to meet Liu Qiang, trying to destroy Han Derang and kill Xiao Yanyan with the help of Chai's hand. Who is this all for? If this is what you think, you should live a life of paradise in your Master's Floating Cloud Villa. ”

Chen Qiuniang saw Jiang Fan say this, knowing that he refused to let her get through the trick, there must be something to tell her. So, she looked up at him and asked, "What do you know?" ”

"The Cao family and the Jing family rebelled, the Lin family also echoed, the Pan family also mutinied, and the remnants of the previous Nine Great Families Elders' Meeting, the Nine Great Families reached the most critical moment. After all, the Council of Elders has been in business for many years, and all of them are human spirits, masters of the chess world, and all kinds of tricks and traps abound. And the Zhang family also has a lot of power in Bianjing, and now the Zhang family in Bianjing is in trouble. And those people chose to take refuge in the Zhao family. You are not a foolish person, you should know how strict this matter is. Jiang Fan looked solemn and said slowly.

Chen Qiuniang only felt a "buzz" in her ears, and her heart was "chuckled", and she was suddenly a little confused. She had just thought that Bianjing must have a critical matter that he needed to deal with personally, but she didn't expect it to be such a critical matter.

"So, what is his chance of winning?" She asked this sentence in a low voice, and the whole person was like being splashed with a basin of ice water in the winter, cold from the beginning to the end, wanting to know the answer, but afraid of the answer.

"I don't know." Jiang Fan said expressionlessly.

"Don't you know? After all, the Jiang clan is in your hands, and those people must have contacted you. Chen Qiuniang didn't hide it, and asked aggressively.

Jiang Fan chuckled lightly and said, "This is the Chen Qiuniang I know, who is looking at the fire of the shape shì cave." ”

"Don't say it's useless. If you mention it to me today, you will tell me thoroughly. She said impatiently.

Jiang Fan suddenly didn't speak, just looked at the woman with the character's face in front of him, his heart was like a cliff, and he fell rapidly and the pain was scattered. He thought that he would not be jealous of her and Zhang Ci, but when he saw her so anxious for him, he still felt jealous. Because he understands that she will never be like this for him in the rest of his life.

"He, the patriarch of the Zhang clan, doesn't have much of a problem." He replied with ambiguous words. Just because he was not noble before, when someone came to him, a young man who controlled the Jiang clan behind the scenes, he did not agree, but he did not refuse, which was tantamount to suing the other party, and he would stand by and watch, acquiescing in all their actions. He even thought despicably that if Zhang Ci was defeated, or after many years, she would be his own.

But he was still faintly worried, after all, she came to Cangzhou alone, and made a huge gamble with the strength of one person, to clear the obstacles in the north for Zhang Ci. Therefore, he felt that he still had to mention this matter, if she was hesitant about Zhang Ci's matter, he would continue to watch to the end. After all, she was the biggest accident of his life.

Originally, he thought that his life would be like this, and finally inherit the Jiang family, marry a woman from the nine doors who is the right family to become his wife, and live the life of Qin Se and Ming. However, she showed up, which made him think differently and want a life of his own.

He actually has selfish intentions for her.

"You have not agreed, nor have you refused." Chen Qiuniang's voice cooled.

Jiang Fan was startled and looked at her in disbelief. At this time, Chen Qiuniang was obviously a Tingting girl who had just grown, but there was an aura on her body that made Jiang Fan feel like Mount Tai was overpowering.

Her eyes were like autumn water in the long sky, her face was like the early morning of winter snow, and under the candlelight, Jiang Fan felt that at this moment, she was 10,000 years away from him. Originally, he regretted it when he sent away the people who came to lobby him, but now seeing her instantly stay away made him regret it even more, and secretly scolded himself in his heart for being confused.

"Qiu Niang." He shouted weakly.

But she paced to the window, looked at the mysterious starry sky, and said, "Everyone has their own decisions, and I can't blame you." The Nine Great Families was a joke from the beginning, and someone fooled the fate of many people because of their own selfishness. Scold. ”

She snorted disdainfully. Jiang Fan knew that the sound was an insult to his ancestor, but he couldn't refute it, because he deeply agreed with her opinion.

"Qiu Niang." He shouted again.

She turned to look at him and said calmly, "Please speak." ”

"If he loses, do you know the consequences?" He hesitated, but still asked. In her question, he is no longer a dashing Jiang son, but a selfish and cowardly person, and he has to decide his actions based on her answers.

She lowered her eyes and lowered her head, and sneered: "Become a king and defeat the king, cut the grass and eradicate the roots." If a man like him is defeated, who will tolerate him? ”

"And what should you do?" Jiang Fan cautiously asked this sentence, but as soon as this sentence came out, he felt ridiculous, the woman in front of him was so smart, she was afraid that he would have a clear understanding of his purpose. Suddenly, Jiang Fan had a despair that he had never felt before. In the past, if I had never been an enemy of her, I didn't know that she was actually so powerful that it was terrifying. R1152
