Volume 1 Chapter 79 Go Slow and Go Fast

Walking out of the small courtyard where Princess Xu lived, coming out of the wooden gate, there was a corridor and a stone path between the trees, which Zhu Gaoxu had walked many times.

Even when he thinks of Xu Miaojin, he always thinks of this road in his mind. Most of the communication between them takes place on this road.

"Five or six steps ahead, there was a stone on the floor that cracked, and no one repaired it." Zhu Gaoxu opened his mouth and took the initiative to break the silence.

Xu Miaojin didn't say anything, and after a while, she looked down and saw a crack on a stone on the ground. She was suddenly slightly surprised, and turned her head to look at Zhu Gaoyang, "King Gaoyang has a really good memory, dare to love you for a few steps?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu shook his head and pointed to a tree on the side of the road with only sporadic leaves, "That tree is like a slingshot fork, I thought so the first time I saw it." The cracked stone was right next to it. ”

Xu Miaojin showed a reluctant smile, "In ancient times, there was a 'bomb king grandson', and King Gaoyang was not exempt from vulgarity. ”

What is the allusion to the bomb Wang Sun, Zhu Gaoxu didn't know very well, so he said again, "Every time I walk this road with my little aunt, I walk slowly, so I can see carefully." ”

Xu Miaojin's face suddenly turned red.

Zhu Gaoxu was a little puzzled, he was just stating a fact...... But after a while, he immediately thought: why did the two of them walk so slowly?

This little aunt's mind is really delicate, Zhu Gaoxu feels that she is also a careful person, but her mind is as thin as hair.

After a moment of silence, Xu Miaojin's voice said softly: "Walk slowly, but pass quickly." ”

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, his heart suddenly turbulent, and his heart suddenly beat. The ancients were mostly subtle and tactful, especially women who had not left the pavilion, Xu Miaojin's words were by no means casual to say, what did she mean?

He couldn't help but look up at Xu Miaojin, because she was walking in front, he could only see her ears and part of the side face. Her ears were like jade and red, but she didn't know if it was the wind or because of what she had just said.

Zhu Gaoxu didn't know how to answer, he didn't dare to be too frivolous, and he couldn't bear to be too blunt, so the silence made the atmosphere embarrassing.

Xu Miaojin seemed to feel that Zhu Gaoxu was looking at her, so her face turned to the left and she never looked back.

She wanted to hide, so Zhu Gaoxu looked at her more stresslessly, and could only see her side.

I saw Xu Miaojin wearing a plain jacket and skirt. The upper body is a pipa cuff with a standing collar and a moon blue jacket, although the standing collar is conservative, it makes her neck stand tall and her shoulders are sharpened, which looks dignified and elegant; The only skin exposed is the neck, and the color difference between the light blue collar makes the skin whiter and whiter.

A woman with white skin has a very beautiful place, that is, at the hairline of the back of the neck, the green silk contrasts with the jade skin, making the hair more delicate and the skin whiter. It is like ink on white rice paper and flowing clouds.

In order to keep warm, the jacket is not a loose and elegant style, but a more close-fitting one. The fabric on the side of the chest is full of tension, forming a series of wrinkled lines, as if the fabric also has warp threads, but it makes Zhu Gaoxu have a very complex feeling, which stimulates infinite imagination.

The jacket is long and covers the waist, and although it does not raise the waistline and does not appear to be long legs like the skirt, the dress covers the entire waist, but it fully reveals the soft line of the waist...... and a climbing hip profile.

The moon white long skirt on the lower body is also graceful, and sure enough, the woman still looks good in the skirt.

Zhu Gaoxu said in his heart: Xu Miaojin is not alchemy, why is he not wearing Taoist robes?

But she really doesn't look like a Taoist priest, and she doesn't even fit into a Taoist robe. is this ordinary dress, which can also be worn by her very temperamentally. And she doesn't apply powder, her natural blue hair and white skin are more delicate, like a hidden orchid in the mountains.

Zhu Gaoxu was very moved...... However, there is still a stone in my heart, like a fish in my throat.

He even maliciously speculated: Will Xu Miaojin secretly throw himself into his heart for what purpose? For example, what are you hiding and what secrets are you asking him to keep?

Otherwise, Zhu Gaoxu really took a good look in the mirror when he went back, and he could make a stunning beauty, regardless of seniority and identity, so boldly let go of etiquette?

Xu Miaojin shouldn't be that kind of person, she is too tall.

At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu's faint suspicion and suspicion before were now even stronger!

The two of them were silent for a long time, and silently walked to the brick wall with carved windows and the moon cave door in the middle.

Zhu Gaoxu waited for Xu Miaojin to stand still and turn around so that he could see her expression clearly. Only then did she suddenly speak: "Little aunt, I suddenly remembered something. Do you know that in the Yanwang Mansion, there is a child who eats Junying Grass and is poisoned? ”

As he spoke, he completely ignored etiquette and observed Xu Miaojin's face very carefully. Xu Miaojin's eyes flickered a little, and he didn't dare to look at Zhu Gaoxu, but this performance should be because of the embarrassment just now.

"What?" Xu Miaojin's cheeks were crimson when she was seen, and she looked like she couldn't give up.

Zhu Gaoxu had no choice but to repeat: "Does the little aunt know that someone in the Yanwang Mansion accidentally ate Junying Grass and died?" ”

Xu Miaojin said suddenly: "Last year's incident, the Junying grass inside and outside the mansion has been uprooted, and there is no one in the Gaoyang Palace?" ”

"Nope." Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said, "Who knew that Junying Grass was actually poisonous?" ”

Xu Miaojin didn't seem to be interested, nodded her head, and she said again: "I'll only send you here." ”

"Farewell." Zhu Gaoxu hugged his fists.

He walked all the way out of the inner hall and let a little eunuch follow, and he didn't go to see King Yan, anyway, he only came back with King Yan not long ago. He walked out of the gatehouse, called Wang Gui and other attendants, and rode straight home.

Zhu Gaoxu came to the inner hall of the county king's mansion and entered his bedroom. There is a bronze mirror on a mahogany table behind the screen fan, of course the man does not need a dresser, but the one who is particular about it also needs a mirror, after all, long hair must be tied up.

He looked at the sleek mirror, scrutinizing his face.

But looking left and right, regardless of the standards of ancient times, it is really not handsome. An ordinary face, a little similar to King Yan, with upright facial features, thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, and thick lips, not ugly, but there is not much handsome and heroic feeling.

Moreover, King Gao Yang has liked to dance with knives and guns since he was a child, often running outside, and his skin is tanned copper. Fortunately, he ate well, was young, and his skin was quite smooth...... The aesthetics of the Ming Dynasty are not the same as those of later generations, but men also regard white skin as beauty, otherwise those scholars and talents would not be so popular with girls and daughters-in-law; From the outside, it is because reading does not need wind and sun to look white and elegant.

At this moment, Aunt Wang came in with tea from outside, because the door was not closed.

Aunt Wang saw Zhu Gaoxu looking in the mirror, and dared to bury her head and snicker, mother, people are like this, if they are too good to them, they will become more and more bold.

However, Zhu Gaoxu still couldn't get angry, and asked cheekily: "Aunt Wang, what do you think of this king's appearance?" ”

Aunt Wang was stunned and said: "It doesn't matter what the prince looks like, he takes it every month, and the slaves and maids are waiting, and he wants to follow you!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu raised his finger and pointed at her with a smile on his face, and sighed, "That's it." ”

Aunt Wang thought for a while and said: "The prince only asks about appearance, and the slave is bold, to be honest, the little lady is not necessarily tempted, they don't understand!" But the older ones like the prince like this, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, tall and big, strong and strong, no matter whether he works or rejoices, it's all this!" Aunt Wang gave a thumbs up.

"Rejoicing in what?" Zhu Gaoxu said.

Aunt Wang paced for a moment and pointed to the bed next to her, "It's the one at night, ouch!" With that, she covered her face with her hands.

"Hahaha......" Zhu Gaoxu laughed, "Aunt Wang is not from here?" I'm sorry! It is precisely that the words are not rough, and I have also heard a sentence that is similar to the words of Aunt Wang. ”

"Tell me, what are you talking about?" Aunt Wang is very willing to talk to Zhu Gaoxu.

Zhu Gaoxu said casually: "Older women, look at men only two things, hang big, have a lot of money. ”

"Oops!" Aunt Wang stomped her foot, turned around and left.

Zhu Gaoxu ignored her, dropped the mirror, and paced while burying his head in thought. He had a feeling and assumption: Xu Miaojin is a spy of the imperial court?!

Based on this assumption, it makes sense that Chinese New Year's Eve she was going to commit suicide by jumping into a well that night...... At that time, the people of the royal palace wanted to use their family members and wives to threaten to renew the void, and the risk of confessing to the void was very great; So Xu Miaojin is desperate, after all, if he is found out, he will definitely be worse than dead.

Later, she didn't despair, because of another traitorous spy Zhang Yan, she stabbed Xukong to death! Her mouth was gagged, and her identity was safe again.

…… Jing Qing took refuge in King Yan? This incident cannot be used as an argument to prove Xu Miaojin's innocence, and it is not rigorous at all. Because whether Jingqing is sincere or not, it cannot be confirmed.

…… In the Yan Wangfu just now, Zhu Gaoxu used Jun Ying Grass to test Xu Miaojin, just suspecting that the "coincidence" of the child in the palace who accidentally ate Jun Ying Cao was simply a traitor.

…… Xu Miaojin said that the sentence "go slowly, but pass fast" is ambiguous, because she has a ghost in her heart, and her heart is as careful as a hair; So she suspected that Zhu Gaochu had already guessed her identity and wanted to beg Zhu Gaochu to keep it secret.

All this is speculation, and Zhu Gaoxu has no evidence. And he wanted to prove that his guess was wrong!

He has a good impression of Xu Miaojin and really doesn't want her to be hurt; However, in case Zhu Gaoxu guessed correctly, Xu Miaojin's harm would be too great...... She is by Princess Xu's side, and she may be able to obtain the top secret of the Yan Army!

After all, King Yan trusted Princess Xu so much, and it was very likely that he would tell Princess Xu some very confidential things.

Zhu Gaoxu walked out of the bedroom, stood under the eaves, raised his head and took a deep breath. He was in a bad mood, and despite all his glory and wealth, he always felt that his surroundings were full of danger, and he had just a little consolation, and then realized that it might be cold and ruthless deception.

It was as if I saw the delicate flowers, rudely destroyed in the raging autumn wind, withered and withered, and everything was nothing but dust.
