Chapter 155: Zhou Rui'an's punishment

Jiang Qingyue stiffened, and she didn't turn back for half a sound, after two years of absence, hearing this voice again made her feel like she was in a dream.

That man really came, he came.

Footsteps slowly approached her, her mind was in chaos, she didn't move, as if she had been pointed, and in an instant, she lost her ability to move and think.

Zhou Ruian walked behind her and asked softly, "Qingyue, don't you want to look at me?" ”

His voice was as clear as ever, but every time he called her name, it revealed an indescribable intimacy and tenderness.

Jiang Qingyue pursed her lips, she stiffened her body and turned around.

I haven't seen him for two years, Zhou Rui'an seems to be a little different, he is more mature, the majesty on his body is even more than two years ago, a pair of ink-like eyes have become deeper, and now he is already a mature and majestic emperor.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but sigh secretly in her heart, and at this moment she felt that her decision two years ago was right.

Now Dajing, under the governance of Zhou Rui'an, has become richer and stronger, and the people live in peace and contentment, even the Tatar war that has plagued Dajing for decades has been completely solved by Zhou Rui'an, he has such ability, and she is right.

Thinking of this, Jiang Qingyue's eyes gradually became clearer, she looked at him and said, "You shouldn't come here." ”

"But here you are." Zhou Rui'an said immediately, his eyes fell on her face, "No matter where you are, I will come to you, what is a Lingnan?" ”

Jiang Qingyue smiled slightly bitterly, she hadn't seen her for two years, she almost forgot that Zhou Rui'an was best at sweet words, he always had a way to say something that moved her, but she couldn't accuse him of being a rhetoric, because he was serious, and everything he said was sincere.

The two looked at each other, as if they could no longer tolerate the attention of others, they hadn't seen each other for too long, really, for too long.

At this time, the second prince seemed to have been forgotten, the face of the housekeeper beside him changed and changed, he always felt that it was a mistake for the second prince to come to Jiang Qingyue, and sooner or later he would be discovered by Zhou Rui'an, but he didn't expect it, but it was discovered on the first day.

But what the housekeeper didn't expect was that Zhou Ruian actually didn't see the second prince, could it be that a person who should have died suddenly appeared again, is it not surprising enough? How can Zhou Ruian turn a blind eye?

The housekeeper won't understand, because for Zhou Rui'an, nothing is as important as Jiang Qingyue, he searched for two years, and finally found Jiang Qingyue, how could he divert his attention for someone else?

Zhou Rui'an's eyes were full of Jiang Qingyue, but Liu Min saw the second prince.

A person who came back from the dead reappeared, if it wasn't a fraudulent corpse, it meant that this person was not dead, Liu Min glared at the second prince, the second prince was really insidious and cunning, and he was able to let him escape to death back then!

Liu Min turned his head to look at Luobei, and then at Xiaofuzi, but both of them looked at Zhou Ruian and Jiang Qingyue with a fascinated expression, obviously not noticing the second prince.

Xiaofuzi even took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes: "It's really touching, look at their eyes, can they no longer tolerate others." After a pause, he said wistfully, "What is this called?" So he asked the crowd to look for him a thousand times, and suddenly they looked back, but the man was in the dim lamp......"

Luo Bei's face also showed a little relief, and he nodded: "The master finally didn't run this trip in vain, but he can be regarded as finding it, and we can breathe a sigh of relief in the future." ”

Liu Min: "......"

None of them saw the second prince? That's not right! The second prince's sense of existence can't be so low, right?

Now the housekeeper and Liu Min are in the same mood, and I don't know whether to be happy that no one has noticed the second prince, or whether to be sad that His Royal Highness has no sense of existence.

Finally, it was not until Jiang Qingyue and Zhou Rui'an finished looking at each other with affection, (Jiang Qingyue would never admit that she looked at each other with affection, she felt that she was completely shocked) Jiang Qingyue remembered the second prince.

Jiang Qingyue's hairs on his body were about to stand up, and he tried his best to block in front of Zhou Rui'an, hoping that Zhou Rui'an didn't find the second prince.

Zhou Ruian glanced at her lightly, and then walked directly in front of the second prince under Jiang Qingyue's unbearable gaze.

"This Lingnan is really an outstanding person, and he can still see the resurrection from the dead." Zhou Ruian said lightly.

The second prince looked at Zhou Rui'an calmly and smiled noncommittally.

He was frank, even if he saw Zhou Ruian, he didn't feel the slightest embarrassment, Zhou Ruian immediately understood, the second prince had long thought that there would be such a day, he dared to come to Lingnan City, to see Jiang Qingyue, and he was already ready.

Zhou Ruian couldn't help glaring at the second prince, what he could think of, Jiang Qingyue would definitely be able to think of it, maybe now Jiang Qingyue would think that he had harmed the second prince, and then he would have compassion for the second prince, and it would be bad.

Now the second prince and Jiang Qingyue are not brother and sister.

Jiang Qingyue looked at Zhou Ruian and the second prince looking at each other, and inexplicably felt a little nervous.

"This is not the place to talk, if you have anything to say, let's go back first, I live in the inn in front, I don't know if you can ask the two of you to move?" Jiang Qingyue said.

The second prince and Zhou Rui'an looked at her in unison, bowed their heads slightly, and then said in unison: "Listen to you." ”

Zhou Ruian couldn't help glaring at the second prince, at this moment he felt that it was better to kill the second prince as soon as possible to prevent future troubles.

What do you mean by 'listening to you'? He should listen to her, and he can barely be counted as afraid, but what is the second prince listening to her? Hum! It's a wolf's ambition, it's obvious!

Yes, when Zhou Ruian saw his former political enemy, his first thought was not that he cheated to death and ran away, but that this person was going to rob him of a woman again!

The scholar and others saw that Jiang Qingyue, who originally went out by himself, took Zhou Ruian with him when he came back, and also brought the second prince?

What kind of combination is this?

However, no one dared to ask, and after inviting a few people into the room, the four brothers hurriedly retreated, leaving the space for a few people.

In the room, three people looked at each other.

Zhou Ruian glanced at the second prince several times, he felt that the current second prince was extremely eye-catching, and the second prince's face was calm, as if he hadn't noticed his gaze.

What's going on with this eerie silence?

Jiang Qingyue opened her mouth in embarrassment, and she looked at the second prince: "Why did His Highness come here?" ”

"Naturally, I came to you," the second prince said with a smile, looking at her with a touch of tenderness in his eyes: "For the past two years, I have been looking for you, but there is no news of you, I remember you said that in a few days it will be your master's death, so I want to come over to try my luck, in fact, I have been here for the past two years, fortunately, this year is finally waiting for you." ”

When Zhou Ruian heard this, she couldn't help but glare at Jiang Qingyue, and her eyes complained, why did she never tell him?!

If he had known about her master's death, he would have sent someone over to guard it, how could he let the second prince steal his limelight?

Jiang Qingyue sighed: "Your Highness has a heart." ”

The three of them had a tacit understanding not to mention it, in fact, the second prince should have died a long time ago, whether he had a cold or was executed by Zhou Rui'an, the current second prince should not be alive.

But none of them mentioned it, and even Liu Min just muttered in his heart and didn't say it.

The second prince looked at Jiang Qingyue and asked gently, "What about you?" How have you been in the past two years? ”

Zhou Ruian immediately looked at Jiang Qingyue nervously.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, and his smile was bright and bright: "Well, it's a good life." ”

She is really doing well, the sky is high, doing what she wants to do, helping many people, she feels fulfilled and happy.

Zhou Ruian couldn't help but glance at her at this time, and muttered: "Of course you are doing well, and the person who is having a bad time is me." ”

Jiang Qingyue glanced at him and couldn't help pursing his lips.

The second prince raised his eyebrows at this time, with a surprised look: "Oh? Will the emperor have a bad time? In the past two years, the emperor has done a lot of great things, and he has also quelled the Tatar rebellion. ”

Zhou Ruian squinted at the second prince's smug expression, and silently made a decision in his heart, he would have to kill him sooner or later.

Jiang Qingyue's expression paled.

Zhou Ruian immediately panicked: "Qingyue, you listen to my explanation......"

Zhou Rui'an's voice stopped abruptly, he glanced at the second prince, and then took the second prince's collar and was about to go out, the second prince desperately resisted, and the second prince who did not give up actually made two moves with Zhou Rui'an, and then was thrown out of the door by Zhou Rui'an.

Zhou Ruian closed the door without hesitation, revealing a satisfied expression, well, that's right, he has long seen him unpleasantly!

As soon as Zhou Ruian turned around and saw Jiang Qingyue, he pounced and hugged Jiang Qingyue's waist roguely, and the whole person hung on her body.

"Qingyue! You're going to have to hear me explain! I didn't move any of those women! That's all a bad idea from Xiaofuzi, I only have you in my heart, and I definitely didn't do anything to be sorry for you! Zhou Ruian said with a flattering face.

Jiang Qingyue: "......"

Jiang Qingyue couldn't help but laugh a little, the sense of alienation between the two of them because of time disappeared all of a sudden, he was still the same as before, every time he faced her, he would always reverse the calm and calm image of the past.

Jiang Qingyue raised his eyebrows: "The beauty is on the side, can you actually bear it?" After a pause, she couldn't help but glance at his body suspiciously, and asked with concern: "Or is the emperor's body unwell?" ”

Zhou Ruian raised his head and squinted dangerously, Jiang Qingyue immediately realized that she was very likely to say the wrong thing, she couldn't help but want to take a step back, but her whole person was held in his arms, how could she escape?

Zhou Ruian hugged her on his knees, put her on the bed, and pressed her up.

His forehead was against hers, and the two looked at each other, Jiang Qingyue suddenly felt a little nervous.

His lips fell lightly on her forehead, then the tip of his nose, with a gentle, even cautious movement.

"Qingyue," he called in a low voice, but his voice was hoarse and deep, "I miss you so much." ”

Jiang Qingyue suddenly felt a pain in his heart, two years ago, she walked silently, and she didn't even leave him a word.

As the emperor, he ran to this remote place just to see her, and after the reunion, he didn't accuse, and he didn't even ask her.

Is this not enough for him? He's obviously such a proud person.

Jiang Qingyue's eyes trembled, his arms wrapped around his neck, and he said softly: "Zhou Ruian, I miss you too." ”

With these words, a scorching flame was ignited, and it could no longer be calmed, he lowered his head and kissed her directly on the lips.

He had waited too long for this hug, but fortunately he had finally waited for it.

His girl finally returned to his arms.

It turns out that Jiang Qingyue felt that Zhou Ruian had no complaints or regrets about her, and the lack of a trace of resentment was a complete misunderstanding! He's obviously punishing her! When she finally couldn't help but surrender and begged him to let her go, the man who had always been obedient to her continued to pester her as if he had turned a deaf ear.

She felt that she had no strength in her body, so she could only let him fiddle with her, making her change into various postures.

Jiang Qingyue felt that her brain was cloudy, she had no strength to think, and her whole body was sore, she only remembered that when she finally lost consciousness, he whispered in her ear: "Lest you don't believe me and say that I betrayed you." ”

Jiang Qingyue wanted to say a word of naivety, but she was really too tired to even have the strength to say a word, and finally fell asleep deeply.

Zhou Ruian propped his arms and quietly looked at the woman lying beside him, she was sleeping deeply, her sleeping face was well-behaved and obedient, like a lazy cat.

But he knew that all this was an illusion, she was not like this, she would disagree with him when she was awake, and even run away from home, and he had nothing to do with her.

"What the hell am I going to do with you?" Zhou Ruian curled a touch of her long hair in her hand, and couldn't help but murmur.

What should he do, he can't beat, scold, or leave, his life has been doomed since he met her, and from the time they first met, he couldn't do anything about her.

Zhou Ruian couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips, and a kiss fell on her lips with affection.

Zhou Rui'an took the dagger in her clothes, cut off a strand of her hair, and then intertwined it with her own hair.

"I'll be tied up to see where you can escape in the future." Zhou Ruian looked at the strands of hair that were put together and muttered to himself proudly.

Zhou Ruian covered Jiang Qingyue with the quilt, quietly got out of bed, and walked out of the room.

The entire inn has been wrapped up by Liu Min, Zhou Ruian came to the second prince's room, he knocked on the door, and soon there was an answer inside.

Zhou Ruian walked in and saw the second prince sitting neatly at the table.

"You haven't slept so late?" Zhou Ruian couldn't help asking.

"I'm waiting for you." The second prince said, smiling and pouring a cup of tea.

Zhou Ruian walked over and sat with him.

Zhou Ruian looked at the teacup in front of him: "Why do you want to come back?" ”

If the second prince left like this, he wouldn't go to him.

The second prince picked up the teacup and paused, "Are you sure you want to listen to the truth?" ”

Zhou Ruian was noncommittal, and the second prince hooked the corners of his lips, and said in a light tone: "Because I don't want to live without her, it's better to die." ”

Zhou Rui'an's face suddenly sank, "Don't think that I won't dare to kill you!" ”

"I've never thought that, even though I'm not a threat to you now," the second prince raised his head, and he looked at Zhou Rui'an: "Why did you come to me?" ”

"Qingyue's background has not been clearly stated." Zhou Ruian squinted and said.

Zhou Ruian snorted lightly in his heart, now he is no threat to him? He felt that the second prince was a very big threat to him!

The second prince's eyes flashed: "I know I've already told you, and I don't know anything else." ”

"You once asked me, why do you doubt Qingyue's background?" Zhou Ruian glanced up at the second prince.

The second prince raised his eyebrows, he was really strange about this, and it was also something he couldn't figure out.

It is said that Jiang Qingyue's life experience has almost been set in stone before, it is reasonable, reasonable, reasonable, Jiang Qingyue is the daughter of Emperor Xuande, why would Zhou Ruian doubt her life experience?

"When the emperor was buried, I took Qing Yue to the mausoleum of Qing Guifei once and found a piece of jade pendant she was holding in her hand." Zhou Ruian said, his eyes met the gaze of the second prince: "But no one knows that that jade pendant is actually my father's." ”

The second prince was stunned for a moment.

"That jade pendant has not been recorded, and no one has seen it, only I have seen it once, it was newly obtained by my father, and he said that when he returned from the expedition, he would give it to me." Zhou Ruian said, a flash of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

From the message in the treasure, you can know what a cheerful and unreliable character King Jin is, and such a character has never restrained himself when facing his only son.

When Zhou Rui'an was young, King Jin always liked to tease him and make him cry as a victory.

King Jin thought that he just took away the jade pendant that his son wanted, and he would lose his temper if he didn't get it, so he liked to look at his son with an anxious look, maybe at that time, King Jin thought that he would give it to him when he returned from the expedition, and then laugh at it again, children just like to cry.

But King Jin didn't expect that he and Zhou Ruian didn't wait for this day.

What Zhou Ruian didn't expect was that many years later, he would see that jade pendant on the hand of Concubine Qing.

Why does the Qing Guifei have the jade pendant of the King of Jin? How could the two of them get involved? When King Jin went on the expedition, Concubine Qing was only the daughter of a commoner and had not yet entered the palace, so how could two people with very different identities be connected?

But Zhou Ruian didn't believe that the jade pendant was given to Qing Guifei by the King of Jin, so how did Qing Guifei get that jade pendant?

The second prince was stunned, as if he didn't expect such a big circle to go around, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"What I said is true, Qingyue was really born to Jing Zhao and Qing Guifei, Jing Zhao and Qing Guifei knew each other in the folk back then, and the two fell in love since childhood, but I didn't expect that Qing Guifei would later be favored by Emperor Xuande and enter the palace as a concubine." The second prince said.

Zhou Ruian frowned, he glanced at the second prince deeply, he has been the emperor for so long, and he has his own uniqueness in seeing people and people, he can see that the second prince is telling the truth, Jiang Qingyue is indeed the daughter of Jing Zhao and Qing Guifei, and has nothing to do with King Jin.

But what is the relationship between King Jin and Concubine Qing?

"As for the rest, I really don't know, and you don't want to think about it, this matter has passed for so many years, and it is related to the royal secrets, it is not easy for my mother to find out these things, why do you bother to investigate the details?" The second prince continued.

Zhou Ruian will be suspicious, but what the second prince said does have some truth, this is not a glorious thing, most of the things back then are dead, and it is too difficult to find out.

"That's what you said, I also hope that this matter will end here, I don't care whose daughter she is, she will be my queen in the future!" After Zhou Rui'an finished speaking, he glanced at the second prince warningly.

The second prince nodded without changing his face: "I care more about her happiness than you, otherwise, do you think you can still find me?" ”

Zhou Ruian was so angry, he should thank him for coming to his daughter-in-law?

Zhou Ruian squinted at him: "Don't you think it's really inappropriate to appear here as you?" After a pause, he continued: "If it spreads out and the court knows, even I can't protect you, so why bother if you toss for so long, and finally end up dead?" ”

Hearing Zhou Rui'an's words, the second prince suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Do you know that I cheated to death back then?" ”

Zhou Ruian didn't deny this, but said lightly: "A big living person, I don't know if he is alive or dead, this emperor, am I too incompetent?" ”

The second prince couldn't help but smile bitterly, he thought that he was superb and had deceived him, but he didn't expect it to be just his self-righteousness.

"Then why didn't you kill me?" The second prince couldn't help but ask.

"When did I want to kill you?" Zhou Rui'an asked rhetorically, he glanced at him: "If I want to kill you, do you think you can live until now?" Still doing so many small things under my nose? ”

The second prince glared at Zhou Rui'an, but why didn't he want to kill him? As an emperor, you have to get rid of those who rebel quickly, why is this not the case with Zhou Rui'an?

Zhou Ruian said lightly: "Because I know that what you want has never been the throne." ”

When the second prince heard this, he was shocked and looked at him in disbelief.

Zhou Ruian didn't avoid his gaze, the two looked at each other for a while, and finally the second prince said with a wry smile: "I didn't expect that the person who knows me best is you." ”

He never thought of being this emperor, it was because the queen mother wanted him to become the crown prince and become the emperor, which in the eyes of the queen mother, was the real winner.

Later, it was because he was unwilling, if he didn't fight, then he would never have a chance again, all along, he was like this, pushed by others, forced by the environment, to compete for that position.

No one knows his intentions, but Zhou Ruian actually knows?!
