Chapter 21: Muddy the Waters
In this situation, Spruce and Handong were a little uncomfortable in the carriage, and they lifted the corner of the curtain one after another, turned their eyes to look out, pretending to only hear what was going on outside the window.
Jiang Liyue regretted it a little after she opened her mouth, and it was clear that Mu Yan had not yet made a sound to question, but she hurriedly stepped forward to explain that she was clearly revealing her own shortcomings.
The most important thing is that she really has nothing to do with Qin Yinghan now.
Mu Yan didn't speak for a long time, Jiang Liyue thought that he had annoyed people in Jingfo Temple, first took a breath, and then dragged the jade plate on Mu Yan's body helplessly and shook it, and called out a long tail: "Mu Yan ......"
Unexpectedly, she would do her best to please herself, Mu Yan was just thinking about what was going on in the court this morning, and when he heard Jiang Liyue call him, he hummed in a low voice.
The atmosphere in the carriage was quiet, and after a long time, Mu Yan said to himself: "I believe in you, Li Yue." ”
This time, it was Jiang Liyue's turn to be stunned for a long time, and then the corners of her lips pursed a smile that was not shallow.
Prime Minister Mu's Mansion.
Jiang Liyue got out of the car by Mu Yan, and after the two returned to the garden together, Spruce and Handong guarded the door for them.
Jiang Liyue waited for Mu Yan to change into a plain black robe, and then took off the apricot blossom hairpin on her bun by herself, and found a soft stool to sit in front of Mu Yan.
Mu Yan is persistent, and is ready to prepare a concert to help solve the food disaster that the people of Daliang have been suffering from recently.
Seeing Jiang Liyue sitting quietly in front of the table, her mind was a little fluctuating, and she sighed and put the wolf aside again.
Jiang Liyueyu held her cheeks in her hands, stared at his every move with burning eyes, and asked with an unchanged face: "Why did Yan Lang appear in Jingfo Temple today?" ”
Mu Yan walked around the table, standing tall in front of Jiang Liyue, her tall figure completely enveloped her, and the silhouette caused by the sun looked like he was holding her in his arms.
Mu Yan, who was tall and jade, looked at her condescendingly, and said unhurriedly: "It rained heavily in front of the court early today, and when I arrived in the house, I heard that the girl in the garden said that you went straight to Jingfo Temple, and the mountain road was difficult to walk on a rainy day, so I was worried that you would have some problems before I followed." ”
It turned out that I didn't deliberately follow it, but I just happened to bump into it.
That's fine, Jiang Liyue's breath in her heart was half relieved, and Mu Yanfu said again: "I didn't expect to bump into you and Qin Yinghan discussing important matters." ”
Jiang Liyue was stunned for a moment, and then stared at him with her cheeks puffed out to swear dissatisfaction, Mu Yan only reached out and stroked the top of her hair, and said softly: "It's just a joke about you, but I really have the idea of letting you guard against Qin Yinghan, this person is scheming, I'm afraid that my wife's mind will be simple and understand his way." ”
How could she be thinking about her, but this appeasement made Jiang Liyue feel like she had returned to Duanwangfu and was held by the stars.
It's just that now that she is married to a wife, only Mu Yan holding her alone can make her feel some joy.
The Qin family is powerful, all because of Jiang Chen's blind favor, he doesn't like the two forces of Duanwang and Mu Cheng who were supported by the first emperor, so only the Qin family who is loyal to him can be deeply respected, Qin Zhi and Qin Yinghan have risen step by step, and Concubine Shu is even more comfortable in the harem.
Let's not talk about Concubine Shugui, even Qin Yinghan has some deep thoughts, if she hadn't been favored by him in her previous life, she would not have fallen into the hands of Li Changlu's villain.
When she saw him today, she hated to cut him with a thousand knives, but she didn't expect Mu Yan to suddenly appear, but Jiang Liyue enjoyed this kind of favorite feeling.
The smile in Jiang Liyue's glass-colored apricot eyes did not reach the bottom of her eyes, and Mu Yan could vaguely detect that Jiang Liyue knew the Qin family's thoughts, but she didn't make it clear.
He paused and then said: "Although the court seems to be a three-legged stand now, the new emperor does not want his father and father-in-law to control the government, listen to Qin Zhi's slander, and favor the concubine alone, in fact, only Qin Zhi is enough to interfere in politics, and the new emperor is suspicious and unwilling to take the proposal of Jiang Mu's two families, and the court has been stirred into troubled waters because of the dominance of the Qin family." ”
"Although women are not allowed to participate in politics, I am telling you now that I want you to be on guard, understand?"
Mu Yan didn't want to look at her after saying it for half a minute, Jiang Liyue rubbed the tip of her nose, met his gaze, and smiled a little shyly: "I know, Yan Lang continued, I will keep it in mind, but even if Yan Lang doesn't mention it today, I will be wary of Qin Yinghan." ”
Jiang Liyue's indifferent attitude towards Qin Yinghan made him no longer feel unsettled in his heart.
He covered his lips and coughed slightly, and the other hand hanging down by his side slowly loosened: "Now the new emperor is unwilling to listen to the advice of his father-in-law and father, and forcibly levy civil taxes. In addition, Concubine Shu has always been strong, and she refused her in the palace that day, and she couldn't choke on it. ”
Jiang Liyue fiddled with the coral hand on the jade wrist and took over his words: "Yan Lang is worried that the Qin clan will ruin your marriage with me?" This will further strengthen the power of the Qin family? ”
When Jiang Liyue was not married into the mansion, Mu Yan never thought that the county lord who lived in the boudoir would be so transparent, although he looked like he didn't hear anything outside the window, but Concubine Shu's methods seemed to be in her eyes.
Seeing that there was still doubt in his eyes, Jiang Liyue added: "Yan Lang doesn't have to worry, even without this marriage, I won't have any other feelings for the Qin family, and now that I am married to you, I will not be separated from you." ”
Although her face was serious, her apricot eyes were clear and gentle, but when she realized how straightforward the meaning of her words was, she secretly blushed, and even her neck was flushed.
Mu Yan's expression loosened a few times, leaned over slightly, wrapped his hands around Jiang Liyue's neck, hugged the person in his arms, leaned close to her ear and whispered, "That's fine." ”
Because of the close distance, Jiang Liyue's eyes flashed a trace of imperceptible panic, and she immediately calmed down, and laughed to herself: "Just now I saw that Yan Lang was preparing to write a note, but for the four disasters in the near future?" ”
Seeing Mu Yan bowing slightly, Jiang Liyue said crisply: "Since this is the case, Liyue will not disturb Yan Lang, today I instructed the small dining room to fry new tea, I am afraid that this time is already good, I will bring it to Yan Lang." ”
Mu Yan slowly straightened up, staring at Jiang Liyue with a smile, seeing her red-faced for the first time since she got married, she directly allowed her to go.
Jiang Liyue Lian stepped out of the threshold in a hurry, which made the two people guarding outside startled.
It was so quiet that it was terrifying, and Spruce even thought that her current menacing appearance was a dispute with the kind-looking forehead inside, but Jiang Liyue said in the next sentence: "Spruce, you go with me to the dining room to see the freshly fried spring tea, Handong you are waiting here." ”
In the end, she was really ashamed, Jiang Liyue's pace was much faster than before, and the spruce almost didn't keep up, and when she arrived at the small dining room, Jiang Liyue was about to bring the fried spring tea directly from the stove, and the spruce hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "County Lord, if Rao is brought down like this, your pair will be wasted." ”
Obviously, there is still a lot of heat on the top, how can I come out of the garden with such a lot of courage.
Spruce muttered a few words, found a set of tea sets not far away, took the tea stove off the stove with a piece of cloth and rushed it into the two tea cups, and placed the tea stove safely in the empty place of the tea tray, and picked it up with his bare hands.
"County master, the slave and maid will hold it for you, it's better not to do this kind of living county lord yourself."
Spruce was afraid that Jiang Liyue would make another set of dangerous moves, so he turned sideways and stubbornly protected the tea tray in front of him.
Jiang Liyue stretched out her hand to end it but pounced, she raised her eyebrows slightly, and squinted at the stubborn spruce: "Now that you have entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, you don't even listen to the words of the county lord?" ”
The words of the master could not be ignored, but this kind of rough work categorically could not let the master go into battle in person, the smile on the spruce face was put away little by little, and his face also fell, and there were layers of dense sweat on his forehead on the big spring day.
Jiang Liyue narrowed her eyes, gently tugged at the corners of her lips, and her eyebrows gradually softened: "It's just a cup of tea, I've never been pampered, I can still serve this little object." ”
Even so, Spruce still gritted his teeth and refused to let go: "The county lord will stop making fun of the slaves and maids, so that the masters will have to say that I am not." ”
The gentle method couldn't come, Jiang Liyue simply took care of herself and served tea in her hand: "With me, who dares to say that yours is not." ”
Seeing that the tea tray was snatched away, Spruce Rao didn't dare to go to her again to snatch it back, so he could only follow behind with a small face and pray that this little ancestor would not make any trouble.
Jiang Liyue only held the tea tray along the way, and her pace was very steady, and nothing that spruce expected had happened, and the two returned to Yuzhuyuan calmly all the way.
When the spring tea was brought to the garden, the spruce did not follow her anymore, and closed the door with interest, Jiang Liyue smiled and brought the cup of smoking spring tea to the pear blossom case, and carefully rubbed the texture on the cup, and the slender fingers were slightly reddened.
Mu Yan glanced up at her in the middle of his play, his eyes were on her slightly reddened fingertips, and a hint of playfulness flashed in his eyes: "You're not afraid of hot pain, this is the dew you asked them to pick a few days ago?" ”
In her previous life, being beaten like that by Li Changlu every day was much more painful than this, but fortunately, she Jiang Liyue had the blessing of Mu Yan in this life, so she didn't have to suffer this hardship.
Jiang Liyue nodded slightly in confusion, which was in response to his question.
A few days ago, Jiang Liyue ordered someone to pick the morning dew, and Mu Yan knew about it, but he didn't know that Jiang Liyue would give him spring tea.
Mu Yan made up for the unfinished strokes on the note, closed the note, and picked up the jade-white porcelain cup on the table with the smell of tea, lifted the lid and sniffed it lightly for a moment, the fragrance of tea entered his nose, and he took a sip.
Jiang Liyueyu looked at Mu Yan with some hope in her face, and only after the tea was all in her stomach did she say slowly: "I have always loved Junshan Yunwu." ”
Jiang Liyue's smile was even stronger in an instant, and there seemed to be a crescent moon between her eyebrows and eyes, how could Mu Yan not be moved.
Mu Yan suddenly leaned closer to her, and the inkstone pond in his eyes seemed to have been overturned, surging with a few inexplicable emotions.
Kyoto said that she Jiang Liyue was reluctant to do that in this marriage? But what, at least now this petite mass has no displeasure on his face, so no matter how much he uses, he has to hold people tightly to his side.
