257. Set fire
Qiao Siwan was stunned for a moment, and after a while, she returned the thing to her with a smile, "You are also injured, and you will use it in the future." ”
Mu Hongxue shook her head firmly: "I have another thing, it's not in the way, I've been disturbing in Yanwang Mansion for too long, if you refuse to accept it, I won't be happy in my heart." ”
Qiao Siwan looked at Mu Hongxue, and couldn't help but think in her heart that Mu Hongxue's words were sincere, and she didn't look like a fake, if she wasn't really suspicious, or her number of paragraphs was too high, and she couldn't even see her eyebrows at all. At this stage, she felt that the former was more likely.
After dinner, Jiang Chi had just entered the door, and Hongyu poured tea for the two. Qiao Siwan asked, "How's the case going?" ”
Jiang Chi took off his coat before he said: "I sent someone to investigate, judging from the imprint of the fire, the fire point is indeed in the museum, but the most burned is the main house near the middle, when the post house was built, in order to prevent the water, I thought about using more solid wood, but this time the fire was too big, except for the Nine Emperor Princes of Gaochang who rushed out with his people, the rest of the people were shocked when they realized that all the post houses had been engulfed in flames. ”
"So, did anyone set it on fire?"
Jiang Chi nodded: "Judging from yesterday's wind direction and light wind situation, there is indeed a possibility, and it is very likely." We should think about it, if someone deliberately set fire, why did he release the Nine Emperor Princes of Gaochang Kingdom? ”
Qiao Siwan fell into thought: "Indeed, if the Nanzhao people did it, since they can act in the post house and put something in the water source to make it impossible for them to escape, isn't it also very easy?" Why let them escape? ”
Jiang Chi said with a smile: "But these are just speculations, and the evidence in front of you does not prove that someone else deliberately set the fire." And even if it is clear about this, it is difficult for my country to answer to Gaochang, a dignified big country, even the post house is not well protected, and it has been exploited. Therefore, His Majesty is anxious to suppress this matter at this time, and is unwilling to investigate it exhaustively. Under the lamp, Jiang Chi frowned slightly, and his handsome face was a little grim and cold.
Qiao Siwan thought about things carefully for a while, only felt a little pain in her head, and couldn't help but shake her head: "No matter who it is, what kind of identity it is, it is all camping all day long, worrying and laborious, and there is no difference between the backyard and the previous dynasty. ”
Jiang Chi calmly touched her head to express sympathy, and Qiao Siwan grabbed his hand: "Why do I feel that you always treat me like a child recently?" ”
Jiang Chi looked at her and said very seriously: "You are younger than me." ”
Qiao Siwan was speechless, indeed, she was younger than Jiang Chi, and she was six years younger. After a while, she smiled and said, "Lord Rong is older than me, isn't it more suitable to be the princess of Mingjun?" ”
Jiang Chi smiled: "I never wanted to marry her, so I was bent on you." ”
Qiao Siwan raised her eyebrows and chuckled: "At this time, there is more than one Yan Huarui who wants to enter your house." ”
Jiang Chi's dark eyes could only reflect Qiao Siwan's face, with a hint of unsightly banter: "Oh, is my Wan'er jealous?" ”
Jealous? Will she be jealous? Qiao Siwan smiled and said, "I'm just curious, why can't I stop these people from even suffering from hidden diseases, is it possible, and there is a more appropriate reason?" ”
"What's the better reason?"
"Is this ......" Qiao Siwan coughed lightly and changed the subject, "The princess is recuperating in the Yanwang Mansion, is the King of Mingjun going to visit?" ”
"Visiting? Don't go. Jiang Chi replied bluntly, "I'm busy." ”
Qiao Siwan had expected his reply, although Mu Hongxue said that she lived in Yanwang Mansion, it was usually difficult for anyone except Qiao Siwan to see Jiang Chi, who was busy with his feet not touching the ground, that is, Qiao Siwan, who was often able to see him at night, and Mu Hongxue herself was also working together to recuperate from her injuries, except for Concubine Dong and Qiao Siwan, the others were basically gone.
Because Princess Gaochang lives in Yanwang's Mansion to recuperate, there are also waves of people visiting the sick in the past few days, and it takes a little time to send these people, and Qiao Siwan doesn't pay attention to most of them, and all of them are handed over to Sun Rouning, which makes her complain.
Qiao Siwan said: "Is the Nine Emperor Princes also going to live in the mansion?" There's something wrong with this. "How can there be a prince living in the Yan Palace, what will outsiders think?
Jiang Chiming was even more dissatisfied with this than her: "He used to look at MM as a pinching word, and His Majesty couldn't refuse." , he will not enter the house for two days, and if he is there, you can try to avoid it. ”
Qiao Siwan leaned into his arms and said strangely, "Why? ”
Jiang Chi was speechless, even though he kept persuading himself to be more generous, when he thought that there would be another man circling around his daughter-in-law, his mood was very bad, very bad. He is a man, and he is still a man who knows the news around Qiao Siwan, the eyes of the Nine Emperor Princes looking at Qiao Siwan made him feel very uncomfortable, and the Nine Emperor Princes are also very subtle in their attitude, they can't tell whether they are jealous or resentful, and there seems to be a feeling that is faintly suppressed. There are many inexplicable rivals, Jiang Chi actually doesn't know where this person came from. Although his daughter-in-law is the most beautiful, but for the Nine Emperor Princes, who are accustomed to seeing beautiful women, they will not only see the soul of the side, Jiang Chi questioned in his heart, is there something missing.
Therefore, he re-investigated the person of the Nine Emperor Princes, and obtained the information that he was already living in the market, which made Jiang Chi unexpected, but also a little enlightened. Although Qiao Siwan is the daughter of a prestigious family, she has already been out of the house, and it is not strange that someone will see her at first sight. It's just that the eyes of the Nine Emperor Princes actually made him unhappy in his heart. In particular, it is not difficult for these nine princes to live in the palace of King Yan, and walk around the princess's courtyard every now and then, and take the opportunity to meet Wan'er.
Jiang Chi sighed and lowered his head: "Don't go to the yard if it's okay, stay in the house." ”
Qiao Siwan buried her head in his chest, "Why is this?" ”
His voice was a little muffled: "Prevent the disciples." ”
Qiao Siwan laughed, looked up and said, "Isn't it inexplicable that you eat this vinegar?" I should have reminded you not to look at indecent things. ”
Jiang Chimo touched her head and said softly, "Have you never seen a beautiful woman before?" If it was just for a dance, a song, I could easily fall in love with someone, then after all these years, wouldn't I have been in the room for so many years? Why bother you. Wan'er, I already have you in my heart, no matter how good and beautiful others are, I still have you for porridge. ”
The muffled voice echoed in the quiet space, little by little secreted into her heart.
Qiao Siwan's heart was full of rising feelings, it was a kind of feeling that made her heart hurt to the extreme, and soft to the extreme, I can't tell whether it was moving, joy or generosity, but this kind of feeling made her extremely happy. "Chi ......" she hugged him tighter, then lifted up and kissed him on the lips. experienced the glue of lips and tongues, and passed on her full feelings.
Jiang Chi Nephrite Wen Xiang hugged him and couldn't help laughing: "What's more, I noticed that my chewing was the strangest, and you were so bad-hearted." ”
Qiao Siwan's face darkened, and before she could speak, she was gagged.
Outsiders all show that the king of the county is tyrannical without a trace of emotion, but in Qiao Siwan's opinion, this is not worthy of the name, whenever he is perceived by her affection, he will put on a straight face and pretend to be indifferent, Qiao Siwan laughed at himself in the past, he actually regarded his indifference as pride, and his sometimes close and sometimes distant attitude as capricious.
Actually, he was just shy.
Such a character, only you can bear it.
If she hadn't married him, Qiao Siwan would even question whether he would have lived a very cold life like this.
Although Jiang Chi said that, Qiao Siwan couldn't escape the Nine Emperor Princes, because although he lived in the front yard, he would go to Mu Hongxue's house every day to sit for a while. Qiao Siwan felt that it was beyond reproach, but she had to avoid suspicion to some extent, so she staggered the time with him every time, and the strange thing was that no matter what time Qiao Siwan went, Mu Xuanyuan could step into the courtyard on time.
Overlapping twice like this, Qiao Siwan almost questioned whether Mu Xuanyuan intended to see herself here, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was unlikely, Mu Xuanyuan was the Ninth Emperor of Gaochang, why did he have to see him? She Qiao Siwan doesn't have the beauty of Mu Hongxue, so she still doesn't put gold on her face.
Bumped into the corridor in Mu Hongxue's courtyard again, although Mu Xuanyuan's eyes became gloomy and bored, he was still very young. The moment he saw her, although his facial expression did not change, his eyes bloomed in a moment, but he suppressed it far-fetched, so he didn't immediately run over to talk to her.
Qiao Siwan was furious by this kind of look, and she bowed lightly and was about to walk over.
"Princess Mingjun, please wait." Mu Xuanyuan spit out this sentence.
Qiao Siwan turned around and looked at him strangely.
"Princess Mingjun, the scenery of Gaochang is very beautiful, have you been there?"
"......" Qiao Siwan was stunned, and replied after a slight pause, "The Nine Emperor Princes laughed, I was born in Dumen, and I am good at Dumen, and I have never had a calendar. ”
"Then, would you like to go to Gaochang to have a look?" No matter how much he wanted to forget, he couldn't forget this face, the feeling of gratitude and gratitude had faded away, and only the throbbing in his heart remained.
"What?" Qiao Siwan didn't expect the prince of a country to say such a thing that was confusing.
"Gaochang not only has towering mountains, but also beautiful seas, which is different from the style of the Great Dynasties." Sensing that Qiao Siwan didn't understand the problem at all, Mu Xuanyuan patiently repeated: "Is Princess Mingjun happy to go and see?" ”
His voice came into his ears, and Qiao Siwan didn't know how to reply for a while.
What Mu Xuanyuan said, not only is it a split head and a face, it has reached the realm of rudeness, or is it the etiquette of Gao Changguo.
No, Mu Xuanyuan usually calmly evaluates the gains and losses, but as soon as he is with Qiao Siwan, he will be so confused that he can't think about it.
"What's the intention?" Calamus stood carefully in front of Qiao Siwan.
"Ah, you have misunderstood, the prince's intention is to welcome you and King Mingjun to Gaochang as guests." The people near Mu Xuanyuan hurriedly said.
Qiao Siwan smiled slightly: "If you have the opportunity, you are willing to go, and thank the prince for your kindness." ”
Mu Xuanyuan didn't reply, his eyes couldn't leave those eyes that were as bright as stars. She is a lady from a prestigious family and is married...... These would always make Mu Xuanyuan tighten his mood carefully, but the feeling of fear was fixed, a feeling of approaching danger, and an expectation of approaching out of control! These feelings made Mu Xuanyuan feel terrified. He feared that one day, he would put aside his wisdom and jump into this dangerous love without hesitation.
"Okay, a promise." Looking at Qiao Siwan, he smiled.
All the admonitions were null and void, and he felt his heart crumble little by little in the middle of the tenderness on Qiao Siwan's lips.
Yanwang Mansion is divided into two parts. The front yard is the place where King Yan deals with government affairs, and the front of the house is a stone road about ten meters wide, and the four red lacquer nails are open. You can faintly see the soldiers on patrol, and the stone lions standing more than ten meters high on each hoof, looking solemn and domineering. This time, the Nine Emperor Princes temporarily lived in the Yanwang Mansion, and they were placed in the front yard to live.
