When the cell door opened, Ye Zhengbai saw Mu Jinghong sitting on a bench.

Ordinary people were put in prison by the emperor, and they all looked like they were sincerely afraid, why not only did the seventh prince not have a nervous and frightened face, but he also bought the cell head, gave a good black and white chess piece, leisurely pinched the chess pieces, and played chess with himself.

Even if Ye Zhengbai came in, he didn't take a look.

Ye Zhengbai put the lunch box in the corner of the table, and then sat opposite Mu Jinghong, looking at the leisurely prince: "Third brother, you are really good Yaxing, you are all in prison, and you still have the heart to play chess?" ”

Mu Jinghong had just put the black chess pieces in the corner of the chessboard, he raised his eyes and glanced at Ye Zhengbai, and then he pushed the white chess over, and his tone was cold: "The eldest brother came just in time, accompany me to finish this game of chess." ”

Ye Zhengbai is a person who practices martial arts, it's not that he doesn't understand chess, it's just that his chess skills are too poor, and it seems that he will lose the chess game, but he doesn't want to, after a stick of incense, Ye Zhengbai won.

Mu Jinghong chuckled lightly and threw down the black chess pieces in his hand: "I didn't expect that my eldest brother's chess skills have improved a lot invisibly, and even I am not your opponent." ”

Ye Zhengbai replied coldly, but he broke the chance: "Third brother, it's not that my chess skills have improved a lot, but that you are simply absent-minded, so you will lose to me." ”

"Absent-minded? I'm like this, and what else can hold me back. Mu Jinghong didn't bother to clean up the chess game.

Ye Zhengbai knew what Mu Jinghong was thinking now, so he said: "Don't worry, I didn't tell the second brother and Miss Ling about you, they left in a hurry after lunch this morning." ”

Mu Jinghong stood in front of the table with an indifferent attitude, opened the lunch box, but consciously took out the bamboo leaves of the Drunken Immortal Building, poured a bowl, and poured himself a drink.

"Third brother, I have one here, I don't know if it's good news or bad news for you, do you want to listen to it?" Ye Zhengbai also took a big sip before speaking.

"Say, I'm going to be locked up here for ten days, and everything outside is good news for me." Mu Jinghong smiled indifferently, almost without hesitation.

"Okay" Ye Zhengbai put his hands in front of the table, stared at Mu Jinghong, and said word by word: "As you wish, Miss Ling...... chose the second brother. ”

The wine bowl stagnated, Mu Jinghong's eyes dimmed slightly, and his expression became complicated, and after a long time, the corners of his mouth were hooked, and he drank the wine in the bowl and said: "Very good, what has been in my heart has finally come true, the second brother is a person worthy of being entrusted for life, very good, really good news." ”

Mu Jinghong just smiled indifferently at first, and then for some reason he laughed a little forgetful, he held the wine jug with one hand, but was stopped by Ye Zhengbai.

He raised his eyes, his gaze was slightly cold: "Big brother, what are you doing?" I, the third brother, am now in prison, and I can't go out to congratulate them, but now I'm happy, can't I even drink? ”

"Don't drink it, this bamboo leaf green wine is strong, if the emperor sees you drunk in prison, maybe, you really won't be able to get out."

"Hehe, my father has long lost confidence in me, I am a gangster in his eyes, a drunkard, unlearned, not even one ten-thousandth of that Mu Zhen, so he is in the court, believing in Mu Zhen, not believing me, I just want to show him, how much face I can give him Mu Jinghong."

Ye Zhengbai frowned slightly, and took the first step to snatch the wine jug in his hand, I don't know if it was the wine or the depression in his heart, Mu Jinghong staggered, and he couldn't stand steadily, he pointed at Ye Zhengbai and shouted: "Big brother, why is it that even you look down on me now?" ”

"Third brother, I know you're sad, but you can't be so arrogant, I know that you don't have the slightest emotion for Miss Ling, but you know that there is such a thing as feelings, even brothers can't give in half a point, what's more, Miss Ling doesn't know what you think in your heart at all, how do you let her choose between you and the second brother?"

Mu Jinghong took two steps back, sat down on the cold stone slab, and after a long time, he sighed lightly: "Big brother, don't mention this matter again, the second brother belongs to her heart, and she won't pay attention to others, but there is one thing, I still want to bother my eldest brother to help." ”

Ye Zhengbai had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being, patted Mu Jinghong's shoulder and said, "Third brother, but it's Miss Ling's business again?" ”

Mu Jinghong did not deny it, and continued: "Although Yan'er knows some martial arts and has the second brother by his side to protect him, things are always a bit in case, I am now trapped in prison and can't get out, so I also ask the eldest brother to help Yan'er more." ”

Ye Zhengbai smiled heartily: "This is natural, even if you don't ask me, I would have regarded that eccentric Ling girl as a sister a good time." ”

The corners of Mu Jinghong's mouth hooked up a smile, I don't know whether it was relief or a bitter smile.

Zhenguo Mansion.

When Situ Qianchen and Ling Jiantong stood in front of Situ Qiannan holding hands, Situ Qianchen's originally dim eyes suddenly lit up.

He stood up and looked at the two of them in disbelief: "You ......"

Ling Jiantong smiled, put their ten-fingered clasped hands in front of his eyes, shook them, and showed off a little in his tone: "Brother Qiannan, how is it?" I've got your good brother down now, right? ”

Situ Qiannan's pale face showed a slight smile, but his eyes glanced at Situ Qianchen on the side from time to time and said: "Amazing, I didn't expect that it only took a few dozen days to melt the iceberg of Qianchen, which is really amazing." ”

Situ Qiannan and Ling Jiantong came and went, as if they regarded Situ Qianchen as a thing, Situ Qianchen pondered for a moment before he said a little embarrassedly: "That...... Just now, Black Eagle said that there are still some things in the barracks, and I won't come back for dinner in the evening. ”

Situ Qiannan's face changed: "How can there be so many things in the barracks?" Qianchen, you finally achieved a positive result with the cut pupils, and the things in the military camp will be put aside first, and you will stay in the house for the next few days, and accompany the cut pupils well. ”

Situ Qianchen was a little embarrassed, after all, he had already regarded the military camp as a second home, and everything in the Situ military camp was more important than anything.

Ling Jiantong knew Situ Qianchen's difficulties, so he smiled happily and said to him: "It's okay, I'm fine, the things in the barracks are important, General Situ is the commander of the army, you can't be in the barracks, Brother Qiannan, don't be embarrassed for General Situ." ”

Situ Qiannan sighed lightly, and his tone softened: "Look at it, such a good girl with cut pupils can't really be found with a lantern, it's just ...... Cut pupils, you're with Qianchen now, and it's too much to call a general, so you might as well ......"

Ling Jiantong bit her lip, secretly glanced at Situ Qianchen, and lowered her head a little embarrassedly: "What Brother Qiannan said is true, but I'm used to it, so let's remove the word general and call him Situ, how about it?" ”

Situ Qianchen didn't speak, but Situ Qiannan agreed first: "Okay, this title is good." ”

Situ Qianchen glanced at Situ Qiannan, I haven't seen him so happy for some days, it seems that he really likes Ling Jiantong, so, it's good.

"Cut the pupils, why don't you go to the barracks with me."

Ling Jiantong blinked, a little puzzled: "Isn't the barracks not allowed to enter and exit casually?" Situ, you really don't have to worry about me, I'm fine. ”

Situ Qianchen took Ling Jiantong's hand, and said in an unquestionable tone: "It's decided, you go back to the house and clean up, and then we will set off." ”

His eyes were like a secluded pool, which made Ling Jiantong, who had always been very assertive, suddenly let go of his obsession, and could only nod like a chicken pecking rice: "Okay, since you said so, then I'll pack up my things." ”

Ling Jiantong went out the door, Situ Qiannan lowered his eyes, walked to Situ Qianchen's side, looked at Ling Jiantong's figure that was fading away, and said, "Qianchen, have you really thought about it?" ”

Situ Qianchen's tone was as calm as water, without the slightest wave: "Brother, this time I am serious, don't worry, I will definitely be good for cutting pupils." ”

"I'm not worried about this, but I heard that the fourth princess is missing, and the fourth prince is sending people everywhere in the capital to find the whereabouts of the fourth princess, Qianchen, this matter won't have anything to do with you, right?"

Situ Qianchen's eyes were deep, and then he evoked a smile: "Brother, although I have had a relationship with Snow Kite before, this matter really has nothing to do with your brother." ”

"Really?" Situ Qiannan stared at him, his eyes full of suspicion.

"Really." Situ Qianchen said firmly, Situ Qiannan could only gradually dispel this thought, he looked away, and sighed lightly: "It's okay, at this critical moment, you must not let the fourth prince seize the handle, otherwise the Situ family will not escape." ”

Situ Qianchen didn't speak again, and the silence of the two brothers didn't gradually melt until Ling Jiantong appeared in the courtyard with a big burden on his back.

"Brother, I won't be back in the next few days, you pay more attention to your body."

Seeing Situ Qiannan nodding, Situ Qianchen relieved his heart slightly, he walked straight to Ling Jiantong's side, stretched out his hand to take the burden on her body, and asked in a low voice: "Jiantong, there is everything in the barracks, you only need to bring a few clothes, how can you fit so much?" ”

Ling Jiantong smiled, pretending to be mysterious: "I have all indispensable treasures here." ”

Situ Qianchen took it with one hand and didn't ask any more, but before Ling Jiantong left again, he didn't forget to turn around and greet Situ Qiannan who was standing in the hall and said, "Brother Qiannan, let's go, you have to take medicine on time!" ”

Situ Qiannan smiled indifferently, and waved his hand at Ling Jiantong, watching them get into the carriage, the tight string in his heart was loosened, he held the corner of the table, his throat warmed, and in a few coughs, the white cloth silk was dyed scarlet.
