Chapter 121: A Long Night in Prison
Seeing He Xi and the white-robed young man beside her from a distance, Jiang Yushui took a deep breath and squinted his eyes.
She wanted to turn her head and leave as if she didn't see it, but Hexi was not as she wanted, shouting her name at the top of her voice.
Jiang Qiushui suddenly didn't want to leave.
It wasn't her who was beaten, and it wasn't her who was injured on her face, she was frank and beautiful alone, why did she hide from Hexi?
There's nothing to be ashamed of.
He Xi and Qi Jin came to Jiang Qiushui, Qi Jin's eyes fell on Jiang Qiushui's face, but she turned her head slightly and staggered, pretending not to see him and not knowing him.
He Xi pulled the corner of Qi Jin's clothes very proudly, and said loudly: "Long time no see, Miss Jiang." ”
Qi Jin quietly brushed her hand away.
Jiang Qiushui didn't see the small movements of the two, and looked at her with a smile, "The princess is so forgetful at a young age? We only met yesterday. ”
She thought that Hexi should be furious when she heard this, but no, Hexi's expression stiffened for a moment, and then she laughed again, her eyes full of provocation.
"Miss Jiang went out alone, and she looked very pitiful, unlike me, with Brother Jin by her side." He Xi glanced up at Qi Jin with a smile on his face.
The latter only looked at the woman in front of him.
A glyph flashed in He Xi's eyes, staring at Jiang Qiushui's pupils tightly, trying to see a trace of loss or distress in her eyes.
The result disappointed her, and instead of showing sadness, Jiang Yushui burst out laughing, "Princess, only children who can't take care of themselves need someone to follow them at all times." ”
He Xi's face froze, recalling yesterday's unpleasant scene, and gritted his teeth.
"Jiang Wan?"
Someone behind her was calling her name.
Jiang Qiushui turned around and saw that it was actually a long night that had been missing for several days, and he was suddenly a little surprised, "Master?!" ”
Changye was still dressed in black, with the Moon Arc Sword on his back, and walked to Jiang Qiushui's side with an expressionless face, "What are you doing?" ”
He was passing by, and by chance he caught a glimpse of them, and saw that Jiang Qiushui was alone, but there were more than ten or twenty on the opposite side, and the disparity was very large, at this time he suddenly remembered that he still had the name of Jiang Qiushui as a master, and it was not good to abandon it, so he called her.
The handsome man who suddenly appeared made Hexi's eyes light up.
He looks like a master of the rivers and lakes, the sword on his back is very special, the cold temperament on his body is something she has never seen, and the most rare thing is that his appearance is so good.
He Xi looked at him blankly for a while, and when he saw him frowning impatiently, he realized what Jiang Yushui was calling him for, and suddenly showed an expression of disbelief, "You are her master?!" ”
Long Night glanced at her faintly, ignoring it.
Jiang Qiushui felt that her performance was not normal, and asked, "The princess knows my master?" ”
"No, I don't know."
He Xi denied it, but his eyes were full of regret when he looked at Long Night.
——
Looking at the back of the two leaving, a trace of jealousy flashed in He Xi's eyes.
……
The sudden change caught Jiang Qiushui by surprise.
Not long after she returned home on the front foot, the back foot Taki'er sent the news that she had been arrested and imprisoned for a long night.
It is said that the Imperial Guards came to arrest him on charges of the remnants of the country, and when Jiang Yushui received the news and rushed to the Long Night Mansion, he had been directly escorted into the palace dungeon by the Janissaries.
This had not happened at all in her previous life, and Jiang Yushui did not feel any signs beforehand, she sat in front of the door of the Long Night Mansion blankly, and fell into deep thought.
There are very few people who know the identity of Long Night, and he acts in a low-key manner, how could he suddenly be noticed by Emperor Nanfeng and confirm his identity?
Jiang Qiushui had a faint intuition that the long night in prison might have something to do with her.
She leaned against the cold stone pillar and closed her eyes, it was late autumn, she was not wearing much, but at this moment she felt that only this unkind temperature could clear her mind.
Someone put something on her body, Jiang Qiushui's eyelashes moved slightly, and she subconsciously thought of Qi Jin.
Maybe Qi Jin will know what's going on?
As soon as this thought came to mind, Jiang Qiushui was suddenly frightened.
She seemed to trust the man too much, and unconsciously became dependent on him.
But in fact, he seems to know everything, but he knows very little about him.
It's too dangerous to entrust trust trust to someone who doesn't understand.
Jiang Yushui shuddered.
"Ah Wan."
A quiet voice sounded overhead, Jiang Qiushui was stunned, opened his eyes, and saw Meng Xiyun standing solemnly, she stood in front of Jiang Qiushui with an oil-paper umbrella, looking down at her.
At some point, a drizzle fell in the sky, and the wind blew on her, wetting her clothes, no wonder she felt so cold.
Meng Xiyun had worry in his eyes, "Are you okay?" ”
Jiang Yushui shook his head, seeing that she was thinly dressed, he quickly got up and put the robe on her body, felt that she was trembling slightly, and couldn't help but say: "It's not that I don't know that I am afraid of the cold, my body is weak, and on such a cold day, I should hold the stove in the room and run out to do something?" ”
said so, but in her heart she also understood what she was here for.
Meng Xiyun pursed his lips and was about to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he coughed first.
Jiang Yushui hurriedly took her to the carriage, and said as he walked: "Don't worry, I will definitely rescue Chang Ye, and I won't let him have an accident." ”
Before parting, Meng Xiyun took her hand, "Be careful." ”
Jiang Yushui nodded.
……
After returning home, it can be seen from the eyes of the subordinates that everyone already knows about the long night.
A crown prince of the imperial family who should have been martyred during the destruction of the country, but lived incognito at the feet of the Son of Heaven and lived in their mansion for many years, and now that his identity is exposed and arrested, how do you know that Your Majesty will not harm Yuchi, and regard them as a fellow party hiding thieves?
Thinking of this, the eyes of the subordinates who looked at Jiang Yushui, who had originally led Changye into the mansion, couldn't help but look at and complain.
Jiang Qiushui didn't care about these glances, and asked Taji'er: "Has uncle returned home?" ”
Taki'er was stunned, the girl had never spoken to the second master since she broke up with the second master at the dinner table, and even the girl and Lu's birthday did not ease their relationship.
But when I think of the matter of the Long Night Child, I understand.
Lu'er replied: "The second master has just returned home, and he may be in the study right now. ”
Jiang Qiushui nodded, raised his feet and walked towards the study.
——
Outside, she raised her hand and knocked twice hesitantly.
"Who?"
Jiang Ling's voice came from inside the room.
"Uncle, it's me."
There was silence for a moment before he heard him say, "Come in." ”
Jiang Qiushui pushed the door in.
Jiang Ling was the first to speak, "Coming for the long night?" ”。
He sat down at the bookcase, looking up at her, his eyes inquiring, and his voice sounding calm.
