Jiang Xun has stayed at home for a few days, except for Ding Xiao and Liu Bei, who have nothing to do to come and walk around, no one else comes. But I didn't want to go out today, so I went to Taixue, had a meal with a few scholars, and then something came to the door.

As soon as I passed through the second door and entered the inner courtyard, I saw a guest sitting in the living room of the main house, accompanied by Jing Zhen. The guest was a woman, and she also brought a maid, but the courtyard was dark, and the lights in the living room were too bright to make her face clear. But I can see that the master and servant duo and Jing Zhen are talking and laughing, and they are happy.

Because the guest who came was a female guest, Jiang Hyun asked Shi A and Jing Wei to rest first.

The woman saw Jiang Hyun first, so she got up and walked to the hall to greet her, and when Jiang Hyun took off her shoes and entered the living room, she met her with a blessing ceremony.

Jiang Hyun picked up the woman and asked politely, "Dare to ask the girl's name." ”

The woman was about twenty-six or seventeen, in the prime of her year, wearing a light-colored Luo skirt, with her hair in danger, hanging down a lock of green silk, only decorated with a bamboo hairpin, but she was very beautiful, but it was difficult for people to have lustful thoughts. She looked at her slightly, smiled and said: "But the family is abrupt, and the name ...... has not been announced", the eyebrows and corners of the eyes are full of delicateness, and the voice and smile are all gentle.

While she was talking, Jing Zhen jumped over, pulled the woman's sleeve, and said to Jiang Xun, "Langjun, this is Sister Chang," and pointed to the maid behind her, "This is Yi'er, Sister's maid." ”

Jiang Hyun glanced at the maid, and sure enough, it was Yi'er who he saw in Yichun Fang that day. Yi'er is dressed in light clothes and has an elegant temperament, and Jiang Xun didn't recognize it. Yi'er didn't dare to meet Jiang Xun's gaze, and lowered her head shyly, how could she still be coquettish and generous that day. However, that day was as beautiful as a peony in early summer, and today it was as pure as a chrysanthemum in late autumn, which had a unique flavor.

The woman who was replaced by Jing Zhen as "Sister Chang" continued: "Jiang Lang came to Yichun Fang that day, but his family was not there, but he was not fortunate to meet Jiang Lang, so don't blame him. ”

As soon as she heard her mention Yichun Fang, and then looked at this posture and appearance, Jiang Hyun knew that she was Chang Jun'e, and said: "It turned out to be Chang and Yi'er girl, disrespectful and disrespectful." He raised his hand to signal the two of them to sit down, and sat on the main seat on the east side, Shi A and Jing Wei sat down in turn, and Jing Zhen stood behind.

After everyone sat down, Jiang Hyun first said: "I went to Taixue today, and I had a banquet with a few friends, and I returned at night, but I made everyone wait for a long time." ”

"Yes," Jing Hao said as she stood behind Jiang Hyun, "Sister Chang is here at the right time, and she has been waiting for three hours!" "It seems that Jing Zhen is very happy with Chang Jun'e and Yi'er.

"Oh?" Since he could wait for such a long time, Bacheng had something important, so Jiang Hyun asked, "But I don't know what everyone is doing?" ”

Chang Jun'e stretched out her soft hand and held Yi'er's hand behind her, gently pulled Yi'er to her side, and said, "Presumably Jiang Lang has seen Yi'er that day." ”

Jiang Hyun squinted his eyes and glanced at Jing Zhen behind him, and saw that Jing Zhen was not abnormal, so he said, "Yes." ”

Chang Jun'e pulled Yi'er to sit beside her, caressed the back of her hand lovingly, and said to Jiang Xun: "Don't hide it from Langjun, Yi'er was originally the princess of the Exquisite Country, and the Essence was destroyed by Shanshan back then. Yi'er was spared, but she was exiled to Middle-earth, where she was fortunate to meet her family and treated her like a sister for ten years. ”

"It turned out to be the Exquisite Princess!"

Jingjue is one of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions, since Dingyuan Hou Ban reopened the Western Regions, because of various reasons such as the Qiang Rebellion and the Northern Xiongnu, the Han Empire has lost control of the Western Regions many times. In the second year of Shui Jian (127), Ban Yong, the son of Ban Chao and the governor of the Western Regions, united with the countries of the Western Regions to attack Zhang Lang, the Taishou of Dunhuang, and defeated Yanqi. The imperial court once again opened up the Western Regions. Since then, the Xiongnu forces remaining north of the Tianshan Mountains have still attacked from time to time. In the second year of Yonghe (137) and the first year of Yuanjia (151), the imperial court sent troops to attack the Northern Xiongnu twice. At this point, the Northern Xiongnu forces were expelled in the Western Regions, and since Emperor Xiaohuan, due to the decline of national strength, the ability to control the Western Regions has become weaker and weaker. In the second year of Yuanjia, Shi Zhengjing, the governor of the Western Han Domain, was killed by Khotan. In the first year of Yongxing (153), the rear king of the Cheshi Division, Aluodo, rebelled against the Han Dynasty, and since then, the Central Plains has once again lost contact with the Western Regions. In these decades, Shanshan Kingdom (real name Loulan) began to rise, successively annexing Xiaowan, and the last country, and ten years ago, it annexed the Jingjue country.

Yi'er was originally the princess of the Jingjue Kingdom, and when she was four years old, the Jingjue Kingdom was destroyed, and a loyal general escorted Yi'er all the way to Liangzhou. After two years, the general took Yi'er to Luoyang, and wanted to ask the Son of Heaven to return to the country, but he never thought that he would fall ill as soon as he arrived in Luoyang. Yi'er also lived on the streets, but fortunately, Chang Jun'e took her in and sent her to the orchid wine shop to be a dancing girl. Moreover, Chang Jun'e has been very protective of her, and she has never suffered any losses.

Chang Jun'e told Yi'er's life experience, which caused everyone to sigh. Jing Zhen also knelt beside Jiang Xun, pulled his sleeve, and said, "Miss Yi'er is so pitiful...... Chang Jun'e is a good means, and she actually made Jing Zhen, who was originally quite jealous of Yi'er, stand on her side.

Jiang Hyun listened to it, but he had doubts. If you want to give Yi'er to yourself, you don't have to tell these sad life stories here. If you are afraid that Jing Zhen will mind, depending on the situation, if Chang Jun'e directly opens her mouth to send Yi'er at this time, Jing Zhen will not object, but will be happy. But Chang Jun'e explained the reason in such detail, and after Jiang Hyun took Yi'er in, it became a favor that Jiang Hyun sold to Chang Jun'e. Chang Jun'e has been in Luoyang for many years, ranking among the eight tigers, to put it mildly, relying on the long-sleeved and delicate means of communication, there is no reason to offer benefits. Although she and Ding Xiaoen are like husband and wife, even if it is for the sake of her friendship with Ding Xiao, she will not act like this.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xun deliberately asked: "Yi'er's life is hard, if everyone is always willing, it is better for us to jointly contribute money and open a shop for Yi'er, which can be regarded as a serious business." With the care of everyone Chang and Brother Meng Chen, there will be no major difficulties in the future. ”

Chang Jun'e has read countless people, and knew that Jiang Xun had doubts in his heart, so he made the conversation clear: "I will take care of the two of us, but it is not as safe as Jiang Lang to take it in." ”

"Why?"

Chang Jun'e smiled teasedly and asked rhetorically, "But Jiang Lang doesn't like Yi'er?" ”

Jiang Hyun glanced at Yi'er's big flowing eyes, shook his head, and said with a smile: "Haha, Yi'er and I hit it off at first sight, and it won my heart." It's just why, I still need to know the truth! As he spoke, his expression became more and more serious.

Jing Zhen noticed that Jiang Hyun didn't seem to want to take Yi'er in, so she thought that she and Yi'er had gotten along very well in the past half a day, like sisters, and Chang Jun'e also treated her like her own sister. and then pity Yi'er's life experience, so he wanted to open his mouth to persuade Jiang Hyun to let Yi'er stay, but this kind of thing is not good to always interject

Jiang Hyun was suspicious, Jing Zhen expected Yi'er to stay, but Yi'er bowed her head and was shy, as if she wanted to stay here, but she seemed to be reluctant and hesitant. Chang Jun'e looked around, looking at everyone's demeanor in her eyes, she thought for a moment, restrained her smile, and said: "The family is from a slightly cold background, so she has to show up to earn some livelihood, although Meng Chen has a prestige, but in the final analysis, he is still a ranger swordsman. The green wind was very prosperous, and several businesses of the Ji family were also booming. Ran Langjun can know that the gang in Luoyang has changed one after another, and even Yichunfang has changed owners three times in ten years. is so adrift and precarious, how can Yi'er have a stable home? ”

"Wandering...... The morning is precarious......" Jiang Hyun muttered a few sentences, and finally made a decision: "Chang everyone, rest assured, I can let Yi'er move over tomorrow and live with Zhen'er, and I will not treat it as a slave." ”

Seeing that a wish had been completed, Chang Jun'e was also in a good mood, smiled and said: "Don't worry, Jiang Lang and Meng Chen are like brothers, if you don't dislike it, you can also call me sister with Sister Zhen'er and Yi'er." As he spoke, he asked Yi'er to bow to Jiang Hyun.

Jiang Hyun hurriedly left the table, helped Yi'er up, and said why bother. said to Chang Jun'e again: "Sister is reasonable, how dare Hyun dislike it?" Sister doesn't have to be called Jiang Lang in the future, just call me the word. However, since they have treated each other as sisters and brothers, they still ......" Jiang Hyun still has doubts, and "drifting" is easy to say, but the sentence "precarious" always makes Jiang Hyun feel that there is something else hidden in the matter.

Seeing that Jiang Hyun had questions again, Chang Jun'e lifted her spirit and asked, "How?" ”

Jiang Hyun said solemnly: "I still hope that my sister will tell me frankly, and I will forgive my brother for being abrupt, but my sister and Brother Meng Chen may be in trouble?" ”
