Fang Li in the summer is even hotter than before, it has not rained for a long time, Jiang Qihan stood in the courtyard, and he missed the spring rain in the capital. This kind of hot and humid air is easy to make people feel irritable, even Jiang Qihan, who has always been in an indifferent mood, is no exception.

As soon as Fu Xin reported to him about Qianjilou's investigation of Rongxi Manor, he said coldly: "Fu Xin, do you think Fang is very hot?" ”

Fu Xin was surprised for a while, and didn't understand what Jiang Qihan meant by this, so he said, "Why did the pavilion master suddenly ask this?" It's hot, but it's hot and it's hot, and you're used to it, haven't you been like this for more than 20 years? ”

Jiang Qihan shook his head, "I think it's very hot this year, let's go, let's go to Qihua Valley to stay for a while." After finishing speaking, a smile crept up to Jiang Qihan's mouth, and it seemed that he was very happy to be able to leave this sultry Hanjiang Pavilion.

Qihua Valley is relatively close to the capital, and most importantly, it is not too far from Rongxi Manor. I heard that my uncle Jiang Cheng had an old friend who was engaged in the spice business in this manor, and he often had contacts, and the origin of the name Rongxi Manor made Jiang Qihan very interested. According to insiders, this manor was named after Feng Xi, the owner of the Feng Ming Sword, and Jiang Rong, the owner of the Strange Flower Valley, more than ten years ago. Jiang Qihan wanted to take this opportunity to visit.

Two days later, I don't know who sent someone to send a box of spices to the Jin family courtyard, saying that it was for Qi Niang, Qi Niang opened it and found that there was a letter hidden under the box, the letter was not signed, only a few words: This incense is called Helan, it has the effect of sleeping and calming the mind, I hope I like it.

Looking at the graceful and sharp handwriting, Qi Niang instantly understood, remembering that Jiang Qihan said that the herb that caused Lanshang to lose her sight was called Helan grass, she hurriedly opened the box of spices, and suddenly a light fragrance filled the tip of her nose. If Lan Shang still remembers this smell, he may be able to find some clues. Since the last time she hit Lan Sheng in a rage, Lan Sheng would look away coldly when she saw Qi Niang, and in the face of Bian Che, she would immediately smile. Qi Niang knew that Lan Shang was still angry with herself about what happened last time.

She held the box of spices and planned to take this opportunity to reconcile with Lan Shang, but Lan Sheng was not in the room, and then she remembered that Yu Mingyang had inadvertently revealed to herself that Bian Che was going to take Lan Sheng to the Golden Mansion to meet the big boss.

I don't know whether to be happy or worried, does Bian Che really like Lanshang? If Bai Yuying was really the one who survived in Bian Che's heart, would he still have the extra emotions to accept another woman? Qi Niang couldn't help but worry about Lan Shang.

Today is the day when Ye Jiu and Xiao Sixteen go to Windy City, and the galloping horses soon arrived at the official road leading to Windy City in the capital, and Qi Niang saw Ye Jiu and Xiao Sixteen preparing for departure from a distance. She dismounted, and Ye Sixteen waved at her with a big grin.

"Qi Niang, I knew you would come to see us off, so I waited for you here with Brother Jiu."

"I don't know when you'll see you again, so I'm naturally here to see you off."

Xiao Sixteen muttered: "Actually, I don't like Windy City at all, not to mention the bad weather, there are fewer people than the capital, how lively the capital is, if it weren't for the landlord assigning Brother Jiu to Windy City, I could still play in the capital for a while!" ”

Ye Jiu put his arms together and said expressionlessly on the side: "If you don't want to go, you don't have to go with me." ”

"The landlord told me to listen to you, can I choose for myself?" Xiao Sixteen shouted dissatisfiedly, "Alas, when I think of it, I will have to get along with Brother Jiu every day with you in the future, and my life will definitely be boring." Ahh I'm not going to suffocate! ”

Although Xiao Sixteen kept complaining, Qi Niang knew that she was actually wrong, and it could be seen from the bright and glittering eyes that she was very happy to follow Ye Jiu to Windy City. Such a simple and transparent careful thinking can only be possessed by a simple character like Xiao Sixteen.

Ye Jiu knocked Xiao Sixteen's head lightly and lightly with his fist, and Xiao Sixteen glared at him back, "If you knock too much, you will become shorter!" ”

"If you don't knock, you won't grow tall."

Qi Niang watched the two of them bickering and couldn't help laughing. Where will people who are like relatives and enemies stay together?

"Gone." Ye Jiu didn't seem to be used to this moment of parting, glanced at the sky, then turned over and jumped on the horse, and looked at Qi Niang again, it seemed that he had a thousand words to say, but it turned into a simple sentence "Take care." ”

"Qi Niang, we're on our way, I'll definitely come back to see you when I'm free!" Ye Sixteen hugged Qi Niang and said reluctantly, then got on the horse and waved his hand at him.

Qi Niang watched them go away until she could no longer see the figures of the two of them, one tall and one short, on the edge of the sky. Although she is used to separation, she is still a little sad when her best friend leaves.

"Drive!" It was getting dark, and Qi Niang rode back to the capital.

Lan Shang should have returned to the Jin family's courtyard at this time. Qi Niang led the horse and planned to go back to the room to get the box of spices, but ran into Yu Mingyang halfway. When Yu Mingyang saw her, he hurriedly said, "Little Seventh Girl, it's so good to see you, can you do me a favor?" ”

"What's the busy?" Qi Niang showed a slightly puzzled expression.

"I don't know who took it upon himself to light incense in the landlord's room, the landlord was furious, and called me over at night, I was a little panicked, or you went for me, I know that the landlord has never lost his temper with you." Yu Mingyang had a pleading expression on his face, and he couldn't wait to wag his tail like a puppy and beg for mercy.

Qi Niang knew a long time ago that Bian Che didn't like to light incense in the room, and she couldn't help frowning when she smelled the spices, as for what the reason, she had no way of knowing. But I didn't expect Bian Che to hate incense to the point of losing his temper. She glanced at Yu Mingyang and said helplessly, "Okay." ”

Yu Mingyang's wrinkled expression immediately relaxed, as if he had been redeemed, and his appearance was a little exaggerated and funny.

Qi Niang came to Che's room in the backyard, and saw that the door was open, so she said outside the door: "Landlord, can I go in?" ”

There was no response inside. Qi Niang waited for a while, simply pushed open the door, just stepped into the room, a fragrance stronger than ordinary spices, filled the whole room, there was an uncomfortable fluttering feeling, so that Qi Niang's heart suddenly jumped wildly, such a strong taste will make Bian Che, who doesn't like spices, angry. The people in Qianjilou and the other courtyards all knew Bian Che's taboo, why did someone make such an obvious mistake today?

There was no figure of Bian Che in the room, Qi Niang called again, but no one answered, she suddenly felt that something was not right, and hurriedly opened the curtain and walked to the compartment inside, but saw Bian Che sitting on a chair, supporting his forehead, unable to see his expression, only Ling Yan's chin hidden in the shadows.

Asleep? Qi Niang approached gently, but she didn't expect Bian Che to suddenly put down the hand supporting her forehead and look at her with her eyes open. His face exposed to the light was slightly red, and his sharp gaze was also covered with a layer of blurred colors, which made Bian Che's well-defined face a little bewitching, for some reason, Qi Niang's heart suddenly raced, and he hurriedly said: "Landlord, Yu Mingyang can't leave for a while, I'll help you clean up the incense for him." ”

She suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, turned and walked towards the incense burner in the corner, but her body was hugged from behind.

She suddenly stiffened and called, "The landlord? ”

Bian Che didn't answer, buried his face in Qi Niang's neck, and whispered, "Did you go to see Ye Jiu today?" ”

Qi Niang didn't know why Bian Che asked this, her mind was a little confused, and she replied truthfully: "I'll send Ye Jiu and Xiao Sixteen." ”

"Heh......" Bian Che chuckled suddenly, and then leaned closer to her ear, "Do you want to go to Windy City too?" ”

Bian Che's low and seductive voice was more magnetic than usual, and his hot and humid breath sprayed on Qi Niang's neck, making Qi Niang sit still, "I didn't think about ......"

"They all said that you and Ye Jiumei are looking at each other, have you been with me behind my back for a long time?" Bian Che asked as if gritting his teeth. His hand holding Qi Niang tightened slightly, and the words that came out of his mouth were jealousy that he couldn't imagine. Obviously, he had realized that there was something wrong with the incense in the incense burner, and he should have thrown it out, but he didn't want to move anymore the moment he hugged her.

Qi Niang's eyes widened, and she said in disbelief: "I regard Ye Jiu as a younger brother, why did the landlord say this?" She didn't know when such a rumor reached Bian Che's ears, it was so ridiculous, and Bian Che actually believed it.

I felt that the temperature around my waist was getting hotter and hotter, and the tip of Bian Che's nose was attached to the hair on the side of Qi Niang's sideburns, rubbing gently, and Qi Niang was stiff like a stone. Then her eyes moved to the incense burner on the side, and she suddenly understood why Bian Che had such abnormal behavior tonight, and how she couldn't calm down today. The problem must be from that incense!

When she came to her senses, she immediately wanted to break free from Bian Che's embrace, but she didn't expect to be hugged tighter instead, and the man's hot breath sprayed on her face, making her shake violently.

The tip of Bian Che's nose lingered in Qi Niang's hair for a while, the faint fragrance and the temperature in his arms made him a little uncontrollable, he couldn't help but put his lips up, followed the soft hair, and kissed Qi Niang's ears and delicate neck. Unlike any other woman, the slightly cold touch and the alluring aura of incomparably nostalgic make Bian Che full of excitement and joy, and the unprecedented obsession makes him struggle inwardly, and he just feels that just touching her like this is enough to make him swoon.

Knowing who the person holding it is, it is not the sweet and tired Yingying Yanyan, nor the Bai Yuying that he has been thinking about for a long time, but he feels happy from the bottom of his heart, he can finally hold her so unscrupulously, there will be no more guilt for anyone, no longer denying his emotions, no longer having any rational restraints, at this moment, it is just the two of them. Just thinking that it was no one else but Qi Niang who was in his arms at the moment, Bian Che felt really good.

Qi Niang was firmly imprisoned in Bian Che's arms, almost unable to think, only to feel that the increasingly warm lips were about to touch the corners of her mouth, and the door outside the room was suddenly pushed open with a creak, followed by Yu Mingyang's voice. Qi Niang hurriedly turned her head and kept herself away from Bian Che.

Bian Che heard the movement outside and quickly let go of Qi Niang, and his eyes, which were still in a state of confusion, regained their senses in an instant, as if he had never been confused by the fragrance.

Yu Mingyang was stunned in place, just now he saw that Qi Niang had not come out of the side Che room for a long time, and he was afraid that Qi Niang would not be able to resist, so he wanted to come over to save the scene, but he happened to meet Lan Shang who was about to come over, and when he saw that the door was not closed, he came in directly. Who knew that as soon as the two of them entered the door, they bumped into the scene of Bian Che hugging Qi Niang.

Lan Shang was also stunned on the spot, and didn't seem to react to what had just happened.

"What are you doing in a daze, move this incense burner out for me!"

As if nothing had happened just now, Bian Che ordered towards Yu Mingyang, his cold eyes moving to Lan Sheng who was standing by the door.

Glancing at him, Lan Shang couldn't help but shrink.

Yu Mingyang immediately asked someone to carry the incense burner out, checked the spices inside by the way, and then instantly understood everything. He shook his head and smiled, this ploy to compete for favor was too unwise.
