Qiao Siwan forcibly suppressed her distress and said coldly: "I didn't let you do this kind of redundant part-time job!" ”

Qiao Siyuan looked at her in disbelief: "You are my sister, if you have been wronged, I can't come to the door to seek justice?" ”

"Justice? You are a dignified general, and you have injured several guards, do you want the whole of Kyoto to say that my godbrother has no way? He let you have a staircase to go down, so he refused to see you, but you had to make a fuss and break in! What is your identity, and do you know everything you want to pass on? ”

Qiao Siyuan's anger did not disappear: "I don't care what others say, I can't let you be wronged!" ”

Although Qiao Siwan was moved, she was also in pain, Jiang Chi was acting and shouldn't hurt her younger brother! He should know, even if Qiao Siyuan is missing a hair, she will be extremely painful, why did he let the guards risk death to stop him! She walked over, gently touched the corner of Qiao Siyuan's mouth, and said, "Hongyu, go and get the medicine." ”

Qiao Siyuan controlled her hand and said, "Sister, why aren't you in a hurry?" ”

Qiao Siwan tried her best to be calm and said: "Why are you in a hurry, I know all the part-time jobs, and I also asked him to take Mu Hongxue with him wherever he goes, and make the illusion that the two of them are getting along." ”

"What?!" Qiao Siyuan could hardly believe his ears.

Qiao Siwan said gradually: "Mu Hongxue provided us with a war report, half a month ago, Gaochang and Nanzhao colluded, Gaochang sent 500,000 troops, Nanzhao sent 1 million troops, will attack the border of the Great Calendar at the same time, taking advantage of the fact that the Great Calendar Dynasty has no plan, join forces to attack Kyoto, Gaochang will take the property of the Great Calendar, and Jiang Tianye will ask for the emperor's throne. ”

Qiao Siyuan was shocked at first, and then shook his head: "This won't be!" On the eastern and southern borders of our country—"

"What if they have been co-opted by high-ranking officials and used by the other party?" Qiao Siwan sighed word by word.

"You mean really?!" Doubts gradually flashed in Qiao Siyuan's dark eyes, "It's probably Mu Hongxue who supplied false information. ”

"Are we so stupid that we can be deceived by her? This information was naturally confirmed later. Qiao Siwan said softly and gently, "And Mu Hongxue's task is to try her best to provoke the fight between Jiang Chi and Jiang Yan in Kyoto of the Great Calendar, so that they can fight with each other, and when the two tigers fight, it is the time to attack the city!" The entire army of 1.5 million, and for more than half a year, the Great Calendar has been recuperating continuously, and everyone thought that it was finally calm, and even the information about the battle was gnashing their teeth and rotting their hearts, Jiang Yan used military food for disaster relief, and there was not enough food and grass in the army for always fighting, and there was no sufficient plan to resist 1.5 million iron cavalry, Siyuan, we need time, do you understand? ”

"This-" Qiao Siyuan's mind flashed a series of flashing scenes, and blurted out, "So you and Mu Hongxue agreed that everything is acting?" In order to deceive the spies of Gaochang and Nanzhao, let them think that the prince of Yanwang Shen ** Lord is beautiful, and success is in sight, so as to seize the time of the planned battle? ”

Qiao Siwan saw that he had finally turned the corner, and nodded approvingly: "Yes, the Gaochang people want to exchange a small loss for a big success, they are waiting for the princess to lose the crown prince and the prince of Yan, let the two of them fight each other, and then screen favorable opportunities." ”

"—Why does Mu Hongxue want to help us?"

"This is one thing, no matter why she wants to help us, the information from both sides is true, the illusion that the Gaochang and Nanzhao people exercise border trade, so that the soldiers disguise themselves as civilians and continue to pour into the border, and now I am afraid that they have been mobilized and ready to attack."

Qiao Siyuan didn't want to believe that this was true, Qiao Siwan's words, after thinking about it, he knew that it was indeed true, Jiang Chi was not a gullible person, since he did so, then this information would inevitably be true, but-"Sister, that's too wronged for you." ”

Qiao Siwan shook her head lightly and said, "Don't be wronged, if you let Jiang Tianye be the emperor, it will bring a bloody purge." "Jiang Tianye won't kill himself, what about others? I'm afraid that he will not leave any of them, and all the people he cares about will inevitably die. Qiao Siwan gritted her teeth, this was a last resort.

"You should have answered me clearly." Qiao Siyuan was a little unconvinced.

"When it's time for you to enter, it will naturally be your turn to sell your life, and at other times, you will have to make a sense of humiliation, do you understand?" Qiao Siwan reminded him.

Qiao Siyuan smiled and said, "Okay, everything is up to my sister." ”

Qiao Siwan had already calculated the time, and Jiang Chi would automatically find Qiao Siyuan soon, because this plan required his joint venture, so he would reveal everything to this child.

Looking at Qiao Sikuo's back, Hongyu beware of her bowels: "Miss, since you also know that everything is a show, why are you unhappy?" ”

It's one thing to know, it's another thing to be lonely, especially a person who shushes you all day long, holds you in his hand and suddenly goes to be courteous to others, which really makes people think that their hearts are sour and their stomachs are bitter.

In the evening, Jiang Chi returned to the main house, Qiao Siwan raised her head with a smile and asked, "Have you had dinner?" ”

Jiang Chi looked at her with a smile: "I've used it." ”

Qiao Siwan paused slightly and said, "Why do you want people to hurt Siyuan today?" ”

Jiang Chi frowned lightly and replied: "It's just that the people are not sensible, I have already told him that if he comes, he will definitely stop him, but don't hurt anyone, he also broke Jin Liang's ribs three times." ”

Qiao Siwan was stunned, but she didn't expect Qiao Siyuan to be so violent, too, he is not a weak young man by her side now, he is at a loss, and everyone else is afraid that they will have to lie in bed for three months. In that case, she could no longer dwell on this issue.

"Starting from understanding, you will teach Mu Hongxue all the part-time jobs of communication."

Qiao Siwan's smile stiffened slightly.

Jiang Chi said again: "I took her to walk around, but she didn't know the politeness between the noble women of Kyoto, and once the days passed, it would make people think that they were unique." ”

"It's a show, can you really use it like that?"

"Since it's a show, it's natural to do it to the end, didn't you say that you still have to deceive Jiang Yan's eyes?"

Looking at Jiang Chi, Qiao Siwan was speechless for a long time, nor did she turn. Fingers squeeze the teacup in your hand tighter until the joints are white.

After a while, she replied, "As you wish." ”

Qiao Siwan really began to teach Mu Hongxue how to deal with the aristocratic women of the Great Calendar without any traces.

Although Mu Hongxue is the princess of Gaochang, many secrets about the Dali people are unclear, especially the key to communication and greetings among women in noble society. It's just that although she is a foreigner, she is clever, no matter what part-time job she is, she will be able to teach as soon as she is taught. For more than half a month, she has clearly understood all the people's thoughts, knowing who is porridge and what, who is very happy about what, what topics are mentioned to colleagues are happy, and what topics colleagues are not happy to say.

Soon, Mu Hongxue became the pride of all the people.

No matter how big or small the banquet is, Jiang Chi no longer wants Qiao Siwan to accompany him, and he takes Mu Hongxue out.

Jiang Chi's attitude towards her also gradually changed.

His expression was still gentle, and when he spoke to her, his tone was perhaps so unhurried. It's just that he found that the time in front of her is getting shorter and shorter day by day, even if she really sees him, she can feel that his eyes have changed, and he is no longer the same as before......

Qiao Siwan's smile gradually decreased, and she became more silent than before. Although she knew that he was acting, when she turned around, she couldn't see his single-minded gaze, and her heart was always empty. She finally realized that in her heart, Jiang Chi had become an impossible person.

Qiao Siwan was in the hall, telling Zhang to do things and work part-time in the house, and Mu Hongxue happened to walk in at this time.

Outside the door, she had heard Qiao Siwan's voice, and as soon as she entered the door, she said with a smile: "You are so busy while pregnant, you are so hard!" ”

"Didn't you go out with the son today?" Qiao Siwan blurted out, and then, she realized that she had asked the wrong question, and she could only laugh.

"I went to the palace late." Mu Hongxue said softly, she was at ease, and she didn't have the slightest sense of weakness. She smiled and walked a few steps closer, and then spoke: "This kind of tedious trivial matter will definitely consume a lot of your mental energy, and I will handle it in the future, and you will be able to make it easier." ”

"It doesn't bother you." Qiao Siwan smiled.

"But that's the benefit of being late." Mu Hongxue bent her lips and smiled like a spring breeze. "By the way, Chi said, there is a beautiful white tiger screen resting in the stack, he wants to take it out and give it away, but the key is here Wan'er, he told me to come over and get the key with you."

Qiao Siwan's face changed, and her smile suddenly froze. She clenched her fists and didn't speak for a long time. That small stack is Jiang Chi's personal stack, but it is not a thing of Yan Wangfu, it is not just a bunch of keys, but it represents his wholehearted trust in her. Why did Jiang Chi ask her to hand it over to Mu Hongxue?

Qiao Siwan's smile almost turned cold for a minute.

"He has to come and get the keys from me himself." Qiao Siwan said, calm as usual, and even showed a smile.

Mu Hongxue glanced at her, the smile on her face had a hint of regret, and finally she didn't say anything.

When she walked out of the hall, Qiao Siwan almost tripped up, but fortunately Hongyu helped her in real time, she looked at Qiao Siwan's expression and stopped, as if she wanted to say something, and finally chose to be silent.

When Jiang Chi returned at night, Qiao Siwan told her about the part-time job that happened during the day, and then asked, "Do you want me to give her the key?" Do you know what that means? ”

Jiang Chi looked at her warm smile, and felt pain for a while, but he forced himself to harden his heart: "I have already agreed to this matter, and I can't go back on my word." ”

Qiao Siwan's smile suddenly froze, and she looked at him coldly. "I'm your wife, she's an outsider, isn't she? Am I not as good as an outsider in your heart? ”

"It's not." Jiang Chi opened and closed his mouth, and then he turned his face away, not daring to look at Qiao Siwan's face again, for fear that she would see the pain in her heart. "You're different." After saying that, he gradually lowered his head.

"Different?" There seemed to be a hint of a coaxing smile on Qiao Siwan's face. "What's different?"

Jiang Chi was silent and did not reply for a long time.

Finally, Qiao Siwan sighed: "If you insist on doing this, it's up to you." With that, she stopped talking.

When he was resting, Jiang Chi suddenly said: "You wait for me for a while, and I will come when I go." ”

Qiao Siwan watched him go out, expecting that he was going to find Mu Hongxue, and couldn't help but smile coldly, could it be that he lifted a stone and hit his own foot and opened the door to steal?

By the time Jiang Chi returned, a large wooden bathtub had been placed in the room, filled with hot water.

Qiao Siwan looked as if nothing had happened, wearing a snow-white undershirt, with her hair scattered, pretty like a fairy who occasionally broke into the world, as if she had finished bathing, and when she saw him enter, she said softly: "How did you go for so long?" I've given them clean water, so take a shower and go to sleep. ”
