Chapter 33: Gratitude or Affection?
This flower-viewing banquet did not make any waves because of the arrival of Nan Huaifeng, and they dispersed after lunch.
Jiang Ziyu and Nan Huaifeng returned to the palace, but they didn't see each other again that day because they had something to do.
At noon the next day, Jiang Ziyu was looking at the information of the officials and dependents of the capital compiled by the shadow guards in the courtyard, and Nan Chenqing sent someone to carry the letter.
"The Seventh Prince said that you should go to the Drunken Immortal Building for a gathering." Zipo handed the note to Jiang Ziyu, who glanced at it and let Xingyu throw it into the incense ding and burn it.
"Wait for me to change my clothes, and you can accompany me later."
Liuying stretched out her head and asked with a flat mouth, "Won't Sister Princess take me there?" ”
"The little emperor gets out of school early today, you and Xingyu should accompany him more." Jiang Ziyu also wanted to go out with Liuying, but he had to see Nan Xun today, with his temperament, he must still remember what happened last time, and it would be bad to make trouble again.
Liuying had no choice but to nod after hearing this, Jiang Ziyu went back to the house and changed into ink-colored civilian clothes, tied his hair in a ponytail with a simple high, and went out with the ink-painted mask he bought last time.
"Princess, in fact, you take your subordinates out, this mask is the same whether you wear it or not." Zi Po couldn't help but speak, now that most of the officials in the capital have seen him and Liuying, it's no fun to block it anymore.
Jiang Ziyu raised her eyebrows and nodded suddenly, she just wanted to prevent the people from recognizing her, and forgot to guard against the officials.
"You'll be able to get a mask in a moment, too."
Zi Po answered, and bought a half-made mask on the side of the street. Although it is superfluous for the princess to wear a mask, after all, her temperament cannot be found in the entire capital, but as long as she does not show her face, others will not dare to tell the truth.
At this time, it was close to lunchtime, and the Drunken Immortal Building was already overcrowded, but the entire third floor was quiet and unoccupied, thinking that it was occupied by Nan Chenqing.
"You're saving, didn't it all break last time?" Nan Chenqing looked at her wearing the mask she wore when she first met and felt amused, he remembered that the mask was broken.
Jiang Ziyu followed her into the private room, ignored Nan Xun and Lu Yiting, who got up and saluted, and reached out to take off the mask: "It's very good-looking, so I left." The eyebrows and eyes outlined by a few strokes of ink on this mask are cold and bewitching, Jiang Ziyu likes Xingyu, so he took it back and changed it to a new belt.
"You should have known my purpose for looking for you, and you should have come here to do this?" Nan Chenqing poured her a glass of wine and said straight to the point.
Jiang Ziyu held the wine glass and chuckled, squinted his eyes and said coldly: "You are generous, even the life of your rival in love is so painstaking." ”
There was a trace of embarrassment on Nan Chenqing's face, Qu Yan begged him hard yesterday, and Nan Xun came to visit him early this morning, although Nan Xun was simple-minded, he paid more attention to affection, and the two of them had a great friendship, and he remembered that Princess Kang was very good to him on weekdays, so he agreed.
"Don't hurt me." Nan Chenqing looked at Lu Yiting with a bit of bitterness in his eyes, and the latter's face was also full of embarrassment. He knew that the Seventh Princess liked him, but he really didn't like the Seventh Princess, and he had already bluntly said that he couldn't marry her, and he was embarrassed to be caught in the middle like this.
"You should know me, I can even care about the Jiang family's life or death, I really don't have much interest in saving this little marquis." Jiang Ziyu took a sip of wine, and the corners of his mouth between his eyebrows were cold and cold.
Lu Yiting's eyes were gloomy, but he didn't want to die.
"You should have seen something was wrong yesterday, right?" Nan Chenqing knows a little more about Jiang Ziyu than others, and when she looked at her expression yesterday, she knew that she found that there were twists and turns, but she was too lazy to pay attention to it.
Jiang Ziyu raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, I have to say that Nan Chenqing really knows her well enough, or is smart enough.
"What's the trouble, it's all in the Wuxuan Marquis's mansion, and it can't stop me." Jiang Ziyu raised his head to drink, and took the opportunity to glance at Nan Chenqing coldly.
Nan Chenqing instantly understood, touched his nose and turned his head to look at Nan Xun: "Now I have found someone for you, and I have also helped you say good things, as for whether you can say it or not, it depends on the two of you, I can't." ”
Nan Xun scratched his head anxiously, got up and saluted: "If the princess still hates me for what happened before, then I will kowtow to the princess a few more times, just ask you to raise your hand to help." ”
"How did you know I could save him?" Jiang Ziyu asked back, they swore that they would be able to get better, Lu Yiting, which is known as a terminal disease in Beijing, is very strange.
Lu Yiting pursed his lips and was silent for a long time, and suddenly said: "You can still cure the emperor's illness, let alone me?" Princess, you haven't explored the pulse yet, how do you know that you can't? ”
Jiang Ziyu's mind turned several times in her stomach, and Lu Yiting had something to say, which was hinting at her.
"As long as the princess is willing to come to the rescue, Lu Yiting is willing to smear the princess's liver and brain." Lu Yiting showed his greatest sincerity and knelt down directly. This is his only way to survive, he can not want any man's arrogance, he just wants to live to avenge his mother.
Jiang Ziyu looked at Lu Yiting who was kneeling on the ground, and for a moment overlapped him with his own figure who was trying to survive in the apocalypse, all at all costs in order to survive.
Seeing that she was silent, Nan Xun only thought that she looked down on the power of the Marquis of Wuxuan's Mansion, so he echoed: "And me, I am also willing." ”
Jiang Ziyu retracted his gaze when he heard this, and was amused by his words, but he didn't ask more.
"Take my share of thin noodles too." Nan Chenqing followed and agreed, and Jiang Ziyu raised his eyebrows and raised his chin at Zipo.
Zipo immediately understood what the princess meant, and stepped forward to help Lu Yiting to sit in front of Jiang Ziyu. Jiang Ziyu stretched out her hand to hold Lu Yiting's pulse, and the moment the ancient book was presented, she suddenly understood Lu Yiting's words.
"What happened yesterday?" Jiang Ziyu let go of his hand, and instead of talking about his condition, he asked about the topic he didn't care about just now.
Lu Yiting lowered his eyes, there was a little shame in his eyes, and Nan Xun opened his mouth for him when he saw this: "Yesterday, he didn't want to go to Qianhua Palace, but now Mrs. Hou, who is also his stepmother, forced him not to say anything, and said that he must let him ask the princess for treatment in public, and you must let you take action." ”
Jiang Ziyu's eyebrows tightened, and he turned his head to look at Zi Po, who shook his head slightly, and he couldn't figure out what the meaning was.
"In two days, there will be a medical hall open in Xixiang Mansion, and I will ask someone to wrap the medicine you use separately, and you can send someone to get it."
Lu Yiting's eyes lit up, and his originally gray eyes instantly brightened: "Thank you princess for saving her life." ”
Jiang Ziyu nodded slightly, still thinking about this matter in his mind. It's just that before the food was served, Nan Huaifeng came over first.
"Why is the third brother here? Sit down. Nan Chenqing had a little weakness in his eyes, so he invited the third emperor's sister-in-law out, afraid that the third brother would be angry.
Nan Huaifeng hummed in a low voice, and sat down beside Jiang Ziyu with some dissatisfaction, and she only glanced at him from the time he came.
"What do you think? So distracted. Nan Huaifeng spoke first to pull her thoughts over, Jiang Ziyu thought for a moment and told him about Lu Yiting.
Nan Huaifeng also frowned, and Jiang Ziyu subconsciously asked, "What do you think is the purpose of that Mrs. Hou?" ”
Nan Huaifeng was silent, and others didn't dare to speak, Jiang Ziyu couldn't help yawning, and just as he was impatiently about to speak, he opened his mouth.
"What should you do if the little marquis dies?"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, Nan Chenqing and Jiang Ziyu were awakened in an instant, but Nan Xun was still confused: "What happened to Yi Ting when he died, the princess?" ”
"If I really forced the princess to rescue her yesterday, but died violently at home that night, do you think the princess can block Youyou's mouth?" Lu Yiting explained, and Nan Xun suddenly realized.
"You're saying that your stepmother is scheming against the princess? But she had never seen the princess. ”
Jiang Ziyu hooked his lips and sneered, holding a wine glass and said in a low voice: "She hasn't seen me, but someone has seen me." ”
The only one present who didn't react was Nan Xun, Nan Huaifeng looked sideways at Jiang Ziyu, who was still drinking lightly, and asked in a low voice, "How to solve it?" ”
"Blocking me is to break ground on the head of Hades, they want the little marquis to die, then I will save him. She wants the power of the Marquis Wuxuan's Mansion, I prefer to use it for my own use, see what she can do to me? ”
Jiang Ziyu had a bit of recklessness in his eyes, and Nan Huaifeng had a deep appreciation in his eyes and a hint of pampering that he didn't know yet.
"Only listen to the princess's dispatch, as long as you can survive, this life will be the princess's in the future." Lu Yiting reacted very quickly and knelt down on one knee, he didn't care what the princess's purpose was to save him, and he didn't care if he was using him, he only cared who saved him.
Jiang Ziyu raised his hand, turned his hand to play with the empty cup, looked at Nan Xun and said lightly: "You owe me two favors." ”
"In the future, as long as the princess speaks, I will definitely do what I can do." Nan Xun patted his chest, the princess saved his brother, which is equivalent to saving him, not to mention two people's favors, even ten of them he also admitted.
Jiang Ziyu chuckled and put the wine glass on the table, got up and said, "Then you can eat here, and I'll go back and feed my little maid." ”
"Not to stay together?" Nan Chenqing got up and asked, Jiang Ziyu shook his head, looked at him and said: "If you really like her, you should be careful with her, people's hearts are flesh and blood, even stones will be rubbed off by the gurgling stream." ”
Nan Chenqing laughed and said, "Your analogy is not appropriate. ”
"You get it." Jiang Ziyu raised his feet and walked out of the private room, and Nan Huaifeng got up and followed. Jiang Ziyu didn't plan to go back by carriage, so Nan Huaifeng accompanied him and snatched the mask Zipo had just bought.
The two walked side by side on the lively street, and the people around them were bustling with people, and it was not until they turned the corner that there were fewer people.
"You can persuade Nan Chenqing, why can't you think about it." Nan Huaifeng suddenly opened his mouth, Jiang Ziyu didn't make a sound, and still walked with his head bored.
Morning Star and Zipo were hiding far behind, and the two of them were going to quarrel again.
"Am I not good enough?" Nan Huaifeng reached out and grabbed Jiang Ziyu's arm, and Jiang Ziyu had to be forced to stop and look up at him.
"We said yes, I'm just going to stay and help you." Jiang Ziyu has absolute reason in his eyes, and he will not be moved by Nan Huaifeng's vague confession to her.
"But I don't want that." Nan Huaifeng himself doesn't know when he has her in his eyes, and he doesn't know when he just wants to see her all the time.
"What do you want? Nan Huaifeng, can you tell the difference between gratitude and like? ”
Jiang Ziyu shook off the hand holding her, turned around and hurriedly walked in the direction of the palace, Nan Huaifeng stood in place and looked at her - his mind kept thinking about this question, was he grateful or liked her feelings?
