Chapter 54: Sleepless Fireworks
Before dawn, the whole sky was lit up by fireworks, Xiao Chuyun was almost sleepless all night, and Jiang Yue was also sleepless all night, lying on the bed tossing and turning and it was difficult to sleep.
Xiao Chuyun got dressed, stood in the courtyard of the post station with her hair scattered, looking at the fireworks in the sky, but her heart became more and more melancholy, every Spring Festival seemed to remind her that there were more years to come here, and the difference this year is that the colorful fireworks seemed to remind her that the family revenge has not been avenged, and the heads of her parents are still missing, and there are no dead bodies.
"Xiao Chuyun, you have nothing to do with me, but I have lived with your identity for four years, and I have never met your family, but their care has never been less. Clearing the snow and sinking grievances...... Maybe it's the only thing I can do for you! Xiao Chuyun looked at the sky and said.
As soon as the words fell, I saw a group of people riding horses in the distance, the night was hazy, and the figures were getting closer and closer with the sound of horses' hooves.
"Miss Xiao, Jiang Yue is there?" An Shimo rode his horse and stopped at the door of the post station.
Xiao Chuyun turned around and glanced inside the room, and then said, "He's inside, turn left and turn the first room!" ”
An Shimo got off the horse and walked straight in with the official knife, and Xiao Chuyun also took one last look at the fireworks, and walked back with his little hands.
An Shimo didn't knock on the door and pushed the door in, but it startled Jiang Yue, who was lying on the bed, An Shimo closed the door, threw the knife directly on the table, sat in front of the bed with a stool, and looked at him with a dark face.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yue sat lazily on the bed and said.
"You're not in a hurry at all!" An Shimo complained.
At this time, Jiang Yue got down from the bed, walked to the hanger on the side, and said while putting on his clothes, "What did the adults say?" ”
"Last night, the post messenger came to report, and the adults sent me over before dawn, saying that if you are still alive, bring the murderer back, this case can not be delayed any longer!" An Shimo said on the side.
Jiang Yue turned around and walked to An Shimo's side, raised his hand and patted his black gauze official hat, and said with some disgust: "The dog can't spit out ivory in his mouth!" ”
"Hey! What does it mean to not be able to spit out ivory! You really didn't even know that you had a green hat just to handle the case, I'm angry and upset for you! An Shimo suddenly jumped up and said indignantly.
"You're not sick! I haven't married a wife yet, where did I get a cuckold! Jiang Yue glanced at him and said.
An Shimo sat helplessly on the side at this time, the old man with a pulled face, and said with some hatred: "I thought I was going to have a sister-in-law, but you, you have finally opened up!" I didn't expect the duck that just reached the mouth to let it fly! ”
Jiang Yue heard something from this sentence, and the movements of his hands slowed down a lot, he took off the belt from the hanger, and when the belt was fastened, he said slowly: "Are you saying that Miss Xiao and Yin Yunqi are too close?" ”
After An Shimo heard this, he got up and put his arm on Jiang Yue's shoulder, pulled him to the bedside, and then said: "Not only is it close, at that time, in full view of everyone, Xiao Chuyun was wearing Yin Yunqi's clothes and was carried back to the inn by him, and the inn was closed for three days in a row, and even Mrs. Luo and Doctor Luo couldn't get in, how can you have your share in the lonely man and widow!" After that, he paused and whispered: "I'm afraid that I have already made a private decision for life, and you are still bothering to work her family's case, which is really a loss to Mrs. and a soldier, you should have taken her away at the beginning, what to say for her good, for her consideration, I think you are stupid!" ”
Jiang Yue's heart suddenly ached, and An Shimo's every word, every word was like a sharp blade, piercing his heart heavily.
I thought that so many days of life and anger were because of Zhong Yaoqin, Xiao Chuyun was so worried about Yin Yunqi that day, I thought I was thinking too much, but I didn't expect that he was making himself amorous.
"Reasonably, what is there to be angry about." Jiang Yue said lightly.
"Reasonable? Don't you tell me you've never given her the slightest thought? ”
"Nope!"
Jiang Yue said it against his heart one by one, but every sentence and every word was so heart-wrenching. Thinking about it now, what he said was just right, on the one hand, he promised Zhong Miaoqin not to be tempted by Xiao Chuyun, and on the other hand, they were a pair of beautiful people, so there was really no need to say anything.
After An Shimo heard this, he walked directly to Jiang Yue, raised his hand and patted his heart, and said with some sarcasm: "If not, why did you come back that day?" And send her back to the city? Isn't that your usual style? ”
Seeing Jiang Yue's speechless appearance, An Shimo said again: "It's a shame that you are so good to her, even your family's ice lotus flower was given to the god doctor, and you still say that I can't open up the case, I see that you are here with her, and you are better than me!" ”
"How do you know that I gave the Ice Lotus to the Falling Divine Doctor?" Jiang Yue suddenly looked at An Shimo with a cold face and said.
At this time, An Shimo glanced at Jiang Yue, and then said stupidly: "It was Mrs. Luo who found out by accident, and it happened that I was there at that time, so I watched Doctor Luo being pulled by Mrs. Luo's ears, and slipped from that end to this end, howling while shouting, talking and talking...... I don't know! ”
Jiang Yue said with a cold face and displeasure: "I'd better not want to hear this from the mouth of the fifth person, especially Xiao Chuyun, do you know?" ”
After hearing this, An Shimo said disappreciatively: "If I were you, I would have to tell her, how can you look forward and be timid, like a shrinking ......."
"Huh? ……”
"Stuffy gourd! Don't open a single trick, let people be anxious for you! ”
Jiang Yue's cold snort made An Shimo suddenly finish the second half of the sentence with his heart, and watched the light outside the window gradually brighten up, no longer a black oppressive piece. After being lonely, I slowly walked to the door, and when I opened the door, I found that someone had not combed his hair and had been standing here for a long time.
"Really?" Xiao Chuyun didn't know what kind of attitude to use to face Jiang Yue at this time, and the turmoil in her heart made her face have no expression at all, and the only thing she could see was her sad eyes at this time.
Jiang Yue stood in place and silently looked at the person in front of him, he also didn't know how to face Xiao Chuyun, there were thousands of words in his heart, but none of them could be spoken.
Before he could speak, An Shimo walked over and said directly: "Didn't you hear it all?" I have to ask again, do you dare not believe it or do you knowingly ask? ”
"It's none of your business, stay where it's cool!" Xiao Chuyun had a cold face, and he didn't know where he got the strength, so he directly raised his hand and dragged him out of the house.
When the words fell, he directly pushed Jiang Yue into the house, and in anger, he didn't forget to turn around and close the door, and An Shimo outside the door could only wander in the yard helplessly.
"Is what you just said true?" Xiao Chuyun asked.
"It's true!" Jiang Yue looked away, and said against his will.
Xiao Chuyun asked with some reluctance: "No, if it is your sincere words, why do you need to exchange the family heirloom Ice Lotus and the Falling God Doctor to save me?" ”
Jiang Yue turned his back to her, slowly closed his eyes and said, "Miss Xiao thinks too much, saving you is out of the circumstances of the case, and it is also the duty of a fast catcher, and with other thoughts!" ”
"That'...... In Anling, in Hong Liangcai's house, did you promise me that it was also out of the case? Out of the duty of catching fast? ”
That sentence...... Miss Xiao, I didn't say it! ”
When Jiang Yue said this, his heart also suddenly hurt, he knew that when he said this, he really pushed Xiao Chuyun away from his side.
The only thing that can be comforted must be Xiao Chuyun and Yin Yunqi together, at least not like him, as there are many enemies who catch fast, they will bring danger to the people around them, at least ...... Yin Yunqi will give her the security she deserves.
"Jiang Yue, tell me, is it because An Shimo rescued Yin Yunqi from the Hundred Worm Valley to tell you, because of this incident, that you said this to me?"
"Miss Xiao, let's go back and make up, at this moment, it will be inconvenient for others to see you in my room."
Xiao Chuyun lowered his head and red eyes, squatted on the ground helplessly, hugged himself with his hands, tears fell on his sleeves in the shortest distance, and said slowly: "That day, Yin Yunqi asked me to go up the mountain to worship the Buddha, because this incident provoked He Miaoxing, she sent someone to throw me to the Valley of Hundred Insects, that scene...... I'm still shaking with fear......"
"Miss Xiao's affairs have nothing to do with me, you don't have to explain it to me!" Hearing Xiao Chuyun's explanation, he felt a little more self-blame in his heart, and some began to regret it, regretting why he didn't take her with him in the first place.
"That day, my body was crawling with insects, and the insects in my body were highly poisonous, if it weren't for Yin Yunqi, I am afraid I would have died there." Xiao Chuyun paused and said, "When he took me back to the inn, I was already unconscious, I had been in a coma for three days, and I didn't know anything. ”
After the words fell, Xiao Chuyun slowly got up, walked to the door and was just about to open the door, when a question suddenly appeared in her mind, which made her stop, held the door bolt in her hand and said: "Jiang Yue, you tell me, what will be the result of these three murderers being escorted back?" ”
Jiang Yue turned around slightly, looked at her back, and said slowly: "It's hasty!" ”
"Why?" Xiao Chuyun's answer was expected, she thought of it before she asked. Xiao Zhengqing is Xiao Teng's descendant, the guardian of the dragon vein, and was wiped out overnight, and it is difficult not to attract the attention of the imperial court.
"This case has attracted the attention of the emperor, and the Boyue Sect dares to kill and set fire so openly, there is inevitably a bigger backer behind it, and this is intricate and intricate, and it is not something that a county order can bear." Jiang Yue expressed his opinion on this case in his heart, and in the final analysis, it was also what the adult in the county government thought in his heart.
"So, just turn big things into small things, and my Xiao family has more than 50 people, so they sink into the sea and never see the light of day?" Xiao Chuyun said very disappointedly, the hand holding the door bolt gradually tightened, and his nails also clasped the door bolt.
Jiang Yue turned around and walked to Xiao Chuyun's side, just wanted to raise his hand to comfort her, but he didn't have the courage to put his hand down, so he had to slowly withdraw it, and said in a low voice: "Although the Boyue Sect is a sect of the rivers and lakes, and its followers are all over the world, if there is no support from the people in the court behind them, how dare they let Xiao Zhengqing and his wife die without a complete body." So...... What can I do......"
"So, all you can do is catch the murderer, and the one who really holds the murder knife behind the scenes can only get away with it, but you can't help it! In the final analysis, it's just because of the protection of officials and officials, the glory and wealth have a bright future that is more important than the more than 50 unjust souls! Right, Egoshi? Xiao Chuyun had tears in his eyes and cried hysterically.
"As long as you want, I will find out to ......the end," Jiang Yue looked at her and said distressedly.
Xiao Chuyun turned around suddenly, with red eyes and tears, and said angrily: "Forget it!" The more than 50 lives of my Xiao family will dirty your splendid official career, and my family's affairs, I, Xiao Chuyun, will carry it alone! Speaking of this, he raised his hand to wipe away his tears, and said again: "Just like you just said, you can't do anything, since you can't count what you said, then what I said you should also be like a flying flower chasing water, forget everything!" ”
