Chapter 196 Identifying Identity
Aunt Ji said a word, and Ji Changge felt even more embarrassed, as if the secret in her heart had been exposed.
In his past 20 years of career, his actions can be regarded as above board, and there has never been a person who cannot be humane, but this is the only thing, only in front of Xiao He, but he can't be calm.
When he first saw pothos, it really reminded him of Xiao Helai. If Xiao He is a daughter, I am afraid that she will be born like this, but she will not be so delicate and graceful. Xiao He is sassy and heroic, even if he turns into a daughter, he must be even more generous.
How much of his kindness to pothos is from Xiao He's thoughts? Ji Changge himself couldn't say clearly, but Xiao He regarded him as a brother, how could he use such a mind to tarnish this friendship. Therefore, he subconsciously wanted to hide from Xiao He, but it was self-defeating.
Xiao He thought about it, and remembered that Murong insisted on dressing up as a woman and going to see Ji Changge. It turns out that this chess is played here.
Could it be that Ji Changge is interested in women's clothing? Or is he a girl who likes pothos like this?
Xiao He is still a little dull about the affairs of men and women, unless she hears the other party confess in person, she will not take the initiative to associate with that layer. In addition, in the past, when I intersected with Ji Changge, I was commensurate with each other, and it was impossible to have any personal feelings with children. She wouldn't even understand what Ji Changge was thinking at this time.
It's just that the origin of this pothos makes her a little suspicious.
"Pothos girl, where are you from?" She couldn't help but interrogate, and the answer relayed by Ji Changge was just a pre-arranged story, everything was too natural and deliberate.
After Luluo was rescued by him from the hands of human traffickers, he has been living in Ji Mansion, and he does not go out of the gate on weekdays, and he does not step out of the second door, and when he has to go out, he must wait for Ji Changge to be free and go with him. The pothos has a tranquil and supple temperament, and in the eyes of the Ji Mansion and even Aunt Ji, they all feel that Ji Changge attaches great importance to her and is very special to her.
But in fact, Ji Changge himself knows that the pothos is just filling a hole for him, and every time he sees her face similar to someone, he stops a little longing and delusion.
Except for that face, there was nothing similar to Xiao He in her body.
The hole was like a piece of paper, and as soon as the wind passed, it easily broke open again, empty and deserted. Only when Xiao He sat beside him did Ji Changge feel fulfilled in his heart. This mood made him feel very ashamed, but there was a bit of indescribable joy.
Xu is like this, he doesn't want to let the pothos appear when Xiao He is present, this mind is the only bit of darkness he can't tell the secret.
After listening to Ji Changge's relays of the life experience of the pothos, Xiao He was even more sure in his heart that there should be some connection between this pothos and Murong. It's just that Murong plans to use the pothos to do something to Ji Changge, and she has no way of knowing.
Now Ji Changge is holding some idle positions in the Ministry of War, although it is an idle position, but occasionally it will involve some important tasks of the Ministry of War, national security secrets, and so on. If you don't care about it and are detected by Luluo, at least you will just collect some information for Murong and leak some important documents, or if you forge some letters and frame Ji Changge for collaborating with the enemy, then you will not be able to wash it by jumping into the Langjiang River.
But Luluo is now only staying by Ji Changge's side as a maid, and she Xiao He is too arrogant no matter how long she talks.
After the meal, he chatted with Aunt Ji about Ji Changge's marriage, and he had heard Duan Heng talk about Aunt Ji after coming to the imperial capital, and he seemed to be quite anxious about Ji Changge's marriage, urging him to go on a blind date and decide on a candidate as soon as possible. But just now I saw that Aunt Ji was very dissatisfied with the mention of pothos in her speech, maybe because of her background or muteness, she thought that she was not worthy of Ji Changge, so she said contempt.
And as far as Xiao He knows, with talents like Ji Changge, who are both civil and military, even many girls to be married in the imperial capital admire him.
When he led the northern expedition army back to the dynasty, he was so majestic on the horse, and how many girls had paid for it. Xiao He hinted at Aunt Ji a few words, and Aunt Ji smiled on her face, of course she was happy to hear that others praised her son.
But Ji Changge couldn't help but shake his head again and again on the side and said: "Brother Xiao, don't make fun of Changge, now I, a general with a false name, have an idle post in the court, and my career has not been built, how can I have the heart to marry?" ”
Xiao He persuaded bitterly: "Brother Ji's vision should not be too high, just marry a wife and seek a virtuous lady." There is a way to start a family first and then start a business. Getting married earlier will also make Aunt Ji feel at ease. ”
"Would you like to?" As soon as Ji Changge spoke, he suddenly felt dizzy, how could he ask such a question.
However, Xiao He heard a different meaning, and said with a smile, "You, a general with military achievements, have no intention of marrying, how dare a mediocre idler like me ask for a wife." ”
Although the green pothos went down, she was wandering outside the hall, and when she heard the people inside discussing Ji Changge's marriage, she frowned slightly, and she was very dissatisfied with Xiao He in her heart. But the owner explained that what she wanted to learn was Xiao He of this women's clothing.
Seeing that it was not too early, Xiao He was about to go home, and Ji Changge personally sent him out.
When he arrived at the door, Xiao He pulled him back two steps and spoke to the side, "Brother Ji, now that you are dealing with some clerical matters in the military department, you must be especially careful, don't let people catch the handle, and give birth to the trumped-up charge of framing and slandering." If it is not a last resort, the official document should not be brought back to the house. ”
Seeing that he was so cautious, Ji Changge carefully reminded himself, and his heart warmed, "Thank you Brother Xiao for reminding him." Long Song will pay attention to it. ”
"Then I'll take my leave." Xiao He Wan'er smiled, like the intoxicating spring breeze in February, and Ji Changge's eyes were in a trance.
It wasn't until the carriage of the Xiao Mansion didn't enter the end of the street, turned around, and disappeared that he reluctantly turned around and entered the door.
For several months, Luluo thought that he was about to capture Ji Changge's heart, but he didn't expect that after Xiao He appeared, he didn't even want to look at himself again. It's not a good taste to be a substitute. What is so good about Xiao He, who is neither male nor female, makes her feel a little resentful in her heart. Even the master seems to think very highly of him.
According to the clips she got along with Ji Changge in the past, she didn't think that Ji Changge was a person with any special fetishes, but a normal man. If you accidentally touch your arm or fingers, you will blush innocently.
If she doesn't play to her strengths, I'm afraid she will soon lose her own value, and if she is recalled by her master at that time, she can't imagine what will happen to her.
After late at night, Ji Changge was still reading in the study.
Pothos prepared a cup of ginseng tea, added some aphrodisiacs, and sent it in.
When Xiao He returned to the house, he first asked Hongzhu about Tang Yiwei's situation today, whether he had ever drunk medicine, and whether his symptoms had improved.
After Hongzhu explained them one by one, she prepared things for her to use the scorching wormwood, and explained it a little. When she reached the room, the stove was thriving and hot, so she unbuttoned her jacket and set it aside.
She asked Tang Yiwei the questions she had asked Hongzhu before, and saw that his face was slightly worried, and she stretched out her finger and pointed at Xiao He's neck, gesturing. Xiao He lowered his head before he reacted, it was the strangulation marks left by Murong who strangled her neck earlier.
"It's okay, I was caught by a dog." The thought of it makes her teeth itch.
However, Murong gave her the medicine for her wounds, she took out the dark red bottle, uncorked it, and smelled the smell of this ointment, which was somewhat similar to the jade skin ointment she had taken from Mu Churan before.
She held the medicine bottle in her hand, stunned for a moment. Once upon a time, the scenes in this room were like yesterday's pictures, she raised her eyes to look at Tang Yiwei, and smiled awkwardly, "Look, I have medicine, just wipe it, don't worry." Let's do it for you first. ”
Tang Yiwei took the medicine bottle from her hand very easily, poured a little on his fingertips, and reached out to wipe it on the scar on her neck, I don't know if his fingers were cold or the ointment was cold. When it touched her, it made her shudder.
It's just that his behavior like this makes Xiao He not hateful, and even a little familiar.
She stared into his eyes, and he stared at her wounds.
"Did we know each other before?" When Xiao He asked, Tang Yiwei's hand movement stopped, and then continued, shaking his head at the same time.
After a few moments, he had filled her medicine and handed the bottle back, more careful than gesturing to her. Xiao He smiled indifferently, "Thank you." But when he looked down at his hands, he was a little distracted, and he couldn't help but put the medicine bottle to the side, grabbed his left hand, rubbed it carefully, and grabbed his right hand again, repeating.
It's like forgetting something, and it's about to think about it, and it's already on your lips, but you just can't name it.
"Offended." She reached down and removed half of the mask from his eyes, looking closely at his face, carefully discerning the outlines.
How much does a person's appearance change in less than half a year? It's so big that you can't make out the traces of the previous one, and it's obviously two different people.
He's not him, she's stupid.
She smiled wryly and helped him put the mask back on, "I'm sorry, I'm probably dazzled to think that you are very similar to one of my old friends." ”
Tang Yiwei smiled faintly and waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.
Today's burning Ai is on his back. There are a total of seven acupuncture points, Xiao He gradually became familiar with the technique, and knew that he had to be steady when he came and went, so as not to fall wormwood ash on him and burn people in vain.
Half an hour later, they were both sweating profusely.
"That's it! That's all for today. Xiao He handed him a handkerchief to clean his sweat, and while he went to the side, he unbuttoned the collar of the outer coat and wiped it. Doing this kind of work requires full attention, but it is a good opportunity to train people.
"My lord! Visiting! Ay! Ay! The little guy outside the door spoke, but suddenly raised his voice.
The door was hidden, and it was pushed open as soon as the curtain was lifted, and the cold wind in the courtyard outside the door was brought in by Hula, and a cold current entered the house, Xiao He couldn't help but shiver, but he raised his eyes and saw the person at the door, wearing a big coat of black fox fur, dusty, but not tired.
It's just that when he saw a person in the room shirtless, a person's collar was ajar, and a smile froze on his face, "What are you doing?" ”
