It takes nearly a month to go from Youzhou to the capital, and the Xu family has a lot of female dependents, they usually have never been far away, and the hardships on the road naturally have not been experienced.

When Xu Meng knew that they were going to the capital with King Jin, she was excited for a long time, and as for the oath she made in Tongyuan Hall and Qiao Mingyue, the real princess, she had long been left behind. So she has been dressing up in a fancy way for the past few days, but King Jin didn't look at her at all.

Therefore, when Qi Jingyun went out alone after dinner that day, he was stopped by a person who was dressed in exaggerated costumes.

Xu Meng learned from the usual appearance of the concubine in the house, pretended to look at Qi Jingyun shyly, and said, "His Royal Highness King Jin, do you still remember me?" ”

"Who are you?" Qi Jingyun said expressionlessly.

Xu Meng's expression was a little cracked, but she quickly reacted, sorted out her expression, and said, "I'm Xu Meng!" Xu Jing's younger sister. ”

Qi Jingyun made a look of sudden realization.

Xu Meng said happily: "Lord Wang, do you think of me?" ”

Qi Jingyun nodded, "I remember, but didn't you swear that you would never appear in front of me again?" ”

Xu Meng's smile froze on her face, and she smiled awkwardly, "Hehe, how can your daughter's jokes be taken seriously?" ”

"Lord Wang, there is something I must tell you today."

Qi Jingyun wanted to leave but was stopped by her, he now regrets not coming out with Qiao Mingyue just now? After dinner, Qiao Mingyue said that she wanted to eat some fruit, and it happened that there was a small forest nearby, so he went to find some fruit inside, who would have thought that he would meet her.

"Lord Wang, in fact, I have been ...... since I first met you"

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! A voice suddenly came from behind him, Xu Meng subconsciously turned around, and saw Qiao Mingyue slowly walking out from behind the tree.

Qiao Mingyue crossed her hands on her chest and glanced at Qi Jingyun, who immediately said aggrievedly: "Lady......"

Qiao Mingyue stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips, pulling him behind him. When Xu Meng saw this scene, the embarrassment of being caught had disappeared, and only anger and annoyance remained, "Qiao Mingyue, why are you so shameless?" ”

Qi Jingyun could tolerate others insulting him, but he didn't allow anyone to say that Qiao Mingyue was not good, and as soon as he wanted to make a move, he was held by Qiao Mingyue.

Qiao Mingyue looked at Xu Meng with a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold to the bone. "Shameless? Miss Xu, I kiss my husband, what does it have to do with you? It's you, who have seduced my husband again and again, you say I'm shameless, I've never seen such a brazen person as you! ”

"You!" Xu Meng was so angry that he raised his hand and was about to wave it down.

Suddenly, a silver light flashed, and a dagger slashed past Xu Meng's ear and was firmly nailed to the trunk of the tree behind him, and there was an extra bloody mark on Xu Meng's face.

Xu Meng was so frightened that he didn't dare to move anymore.

"Miss Xu, is it that I am too gentle with you to make you think that you can seduce my husband again and again. What confidence do you think you have to compare to me? Qiao Mingyue squeezed her wrist hard.

Xu Meng's face was pale, and at this moment she realized that the person in front of her was her, and even the entire Xu family couldn't afford to mess with him.

Qiao Mingyue didn't let her go like this, "Miss Xu, I'm a person with human blood on my hands, guess what happened to the women who stalked my prince before?" Or, guess what, do I dare to kill you? Well? ”

Qiao Mingyue rose at the end, and Xu Meng couldn't even stand still. Seeing that the effect was almost over, Qiao Mingyue sent her hand away, stepped forward and pulled out the dagger, turned back to Qi Jingyun and said, "Xianggong, I want to eat the fruit, let's go." Remember, next time, I will definitely kill you without hesitation. The latter sentence was said to Xu Meng.

Alas! Some people just don't know what to do!

In the days that followed, Xu Meng never appeared in front of Qiao Mingyue and Qi Jingyun, and when he met occasionally, he just lowered his head and ran away. Xu Jing also noticed this and knew that something must have happened, but he didn't have the curiosity to dig deeper, in short, there was no harm in it.

Soon, they arrived in the capital. The capital was still as prosperous as when Qiao Mingyue first came, and on the way they learned that the situation in the capital was quite stable after the new emperor ascended the throne, so many of the exiled families returned to the capital one after another. Moreover, since the new emperor ascended the throne, he has created the imperial examination and recruited talents extensively, and many scholars have come to the capital eager to show their ambitions, so even if they have just experienced war, the capital is still prosperous.

"Phew! If you don't have money, you dare to stay in the hotel, live on the street! With a loud bang, a young man who looked like a scholar was thrown out by several big men, and the shopkeeper scolded him, but he didn't seem to be angry, and told the big man again: "Beat me, beat me to death!" ”

"Stop!" A purple figure passed by everyone, and several big men had already fallen to the ground.

The shopkeeper is a person who watches the wind and rudder, seeing Qi Jingyun's dignified appearance, although his dress looks simple, but it is very luxurious, he understands that this is not an ordinary person, and immediately changes his face, "This guest officer, are you eating or staying in the hotel?" ”

Qi Jingyun helped the person who fell to the ground up, and said to the shopkeeper, "Go and call your shopkeeper over." ”

"Huh? This ...... "The shopkeeper was a little hesitant.

Qi Jingyun's eyes were cold, "Don't go yet!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

"Who the hell is it? I have to step in. "The shopkeeper is over sixty years old, and he loves to drink tea on weekdays, and he was just tasting the best Biluochun in the backyard when he was called out, and he was annoyed.

The shopkeeper came to the door with a scolding, and when he saw a purple dress, he felt a little familiar, his eyes slowly moved up, and after seeing his face, he suddenly knelt on the ground, "The grass people knock on His Royal Highness King Jin." ”

King Jin? Everyone present was dumbfounded. The shopkeeper was even more distressed in his heart.

Qi Jingyun picked up the shopkeeper and said, "I haven't seen you for many years, do you still remember me?" ”

The shopkeeper smiled bitterly and said, "How can you not remember, you have smashed many of my tables and chairs." ”

Qi Jingyun laughed and said, "Don't mention the past, quickly prepare a few good wings for us." Prepare some more signature dishes. ”

At the dinner table, Qi Jingyun knew the identity of the young man who was kicked out. His name is Zhang Qing, and he is a scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam, but he was shy and couldn't pay the rent, so he was kicked out.

"You entered Beijing alone?" Qi Jingyun asked.

"Yes." Zhang Qing nodded.

Zhang Qing and Xu Jing are both scholars, but their temperaments are completely different, but it is undeniable that Zhang Qing's talent is not below Xu Jing.

"You stay in this inn these days, and I'll pay for the rent and food for you." Qi Jingyun suddenly spoke.

Zhang Qing was flattered and was about to resign, but Qi Jingyun said again: "Don't worry, this money is not given to you for free, you have to pay it back in the future." He knew that these scholars were arrogant.

Zhang Qing hurriedly thanked him.

Just as he was about to leave, Zhang Qing suddenly stopped Qi Jingyun, "Lord Wang, please stay." ”

Qi Jingyun was puzzled, Zhang Qing stepped forward and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The grass people know some faces, and they have the courage to show the prince." The prince's life is extremely poor, family affection, family, and heirs, these are all things that are difficult for you to get, originally...... You should have died a few years ago, but you met the noble man of your destiny. He has influenced you with his own well-being, and your life has actually changed......" Seeing that Qi Jingyun had not spoken, Zhang Qing said in fear: "Your Highness forgives your sins." ”

Qi Jingyun came back to his senses and said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll leave first, let's talk another day." ”

He was thinking about the noble man of his life, the wise and resolute woman.
