Jiang Cailing is very wrong.

This is the intuitive feeling that Su Qingcheng got after observing it for a few days.

When you sit on the edge of the pond and fish, you forget to put bait on the hook; When eating, I don't know how to eat vegetables, and I will only eat the white rice in the bowl in a windswept posture; Even when drinking tea, it will not filter out the tea leaves on it, and the mouth will be full of tea foam. These are nothing, the most important thing is that Jiang Cailing often has a silly smile on her face, as if she has lost her mind.

One day, Su Qingcheng finally couldn't help but arrive at the courtyard, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Jiang Cailing watering the flowers and plants with that kind of mindless smile, his eyes were straight, and he didn't know what was going on in his head, the kettle in his hand was already out of water, and he was still half-squatting in front of the flowers and plants in the posture of watering the flowers, his white cheeks were covered with redness, like a big apple fixed on his head.

"The Big Apple...... Jiang Cailing, what are you thinking these days? Su Qingcheng's voice sounded behind him, Jiang Cailing came back to his senses, found that the kettle in his hand was out of water, and stood up straight and turned to Su Qingcheng behind him with some embarrassment.

"Why are you free to come here today?" After the reception, Luan Wenzhi, who was originally responsible for arranging the envoys, was replaced by Su Qingcheng and the Eighth Prince, temporarily taking over this important matter, Su Qingcheng was either in the study or in the palace these days.

Su Qingcheng was indeed a little tired, and when he walked straight into the room, he smelled the faint smell of orchids in the room, the fragrance was not strong, but it seemed to burrow into the wings of his nose as if it were nothing, ethereal and quiet.

It is said that words are like people, and in Su Qingcheng's eyes, the fragrance is also like his person, and this kind of orchid fragrance and Jiang Cailing himself also have many similarities.

"Is there news from the palace?" Ordered rouge to serve tea, and the two of them sat on both sides of the sandalwood square table, Jiang Cailing did not hear how Emperor Chu judged after that night.

After taking a sip of tea, a meaningful smile flashed in Su Qingcheng's amber eyes, "As you and I expected, on the surface, the queen was not punished, and even Imperial Physician Zhao's father only demoted his official position in the Imperial Hospital. ”

Jiang Cailing sighed lowly, "The calm on the surface is like the calm before the tsunami, and after the huge waves are raging, it will inevitably make a mess of the sea." ”

When it came to the tsunami, both of them were stunned. Years ago, the two of them were still on the same page, but they didn't expect that after more than half a year, the two would be so calmly allied and jointly plan the best interests of all parties.

A burst of pictures suddenly flashed in the narrow peach blossom eyes, different from the previous blur, this time the flashed picture was very clear, and it was continuous as if it had found a memory. But when the characters appear in the picture, they begin to blur again.

Su Qingcheng was already very sure that these pictures were memories of his personal experience, not out of fantasy. Since the last time he and Jiang Cailing came back from the cave and were scraped by a tree branch, these memories have gradually become clearer.

And the woman in the picture ...... Who the hell is it?

Seeing Su Qingcheng's frowns, Jiang Cailing knew that she had spoken just now, and she cleared her throat and was about to change the topic, but Su Qingcheng preemptively asked, "After that tsunami, where did you go?" ”

The peach blossom eyes were scorching, as if they were torturing the depths of Jiang Cailing's soul, Jiang Cailing raised her lips and smiled, "I was swept into a village by the waves, and it happened that the princess recognized me when she stopped and stopped." How did you remember to ask this question? ”

Jiang Cailing's appearance didn't look like she was lying, and the moment she heard the answer, Su Qingcheng didn't know why many inexplicable emotions suddenly surged in her heart. He knew that he shouldn't have unnecessary concern for women other than Du Nianyu, but he couldn't help the thoughts in his heart, and when he reacted, he was already close to Jiang Cailing.

He thought a lot a while ago, even if the Luan family's romance in his bones was indelible, he would control his heart and not have more contact with Jiang Cailing, and the two of them would never exceed the boundaries of allies.

Thinking of the purpose of coming today, Su Qingcheng shook his head, threw out all the distracting thoughts in his mind, and then asked, "When it comes to the tsunami, just ask, you have been very abnormal these days, since you returned from the last reception banquet, you have been unable to give up, and your face is also red, are you sick?" ”

"Forehead" Jiang Cailing didn't expect her behavior to be so obvious, and raised her hand to take a sip ......of tea in disguise, "It's nothing, it's just that I stayed outside for a long time on the day of the wind reception, and my face was swept by the wind, and it will be fine in a few days." ”

Su Qingcheng bowed, "If you feel uncomfortable, let the imperial doctor come and take a look, I still have to go to the post house, so I'll go first." ”

"Wait!"

Su Qingcheng turned around in confusion, and saw Jiang Cailing standing up from the chair, "I'll go with you?" ”

"What are you going to do?"

"I have some friendship with Mr. Liu, the owner of the inn, and last time I heard Ah Xiao say that he had relieved me in the restaurant, I should take this opportunity to thank me."

After learning that Gu Jiming came to Chu State, Jiang Cailing was ready to hand over the painting to him personally, and now it was an opportunity.

The two sat in the carriage together, staggering all the way, and soon arrived at the post house.

When I saw the appearance of the post house, I knew that it came from the aesthetics of Liu Minglou. The two-storey inn is beautifully built and quite luxurious. The whole body is made of glass, and the four corners of the house are hung with silver bells, and occasionally the wind blows, and the melodious bell will ring. The house sits in the north and faces south, the whole body presents the shape of "Hui", there are three exits in total, because the foreign envoys live in it, so the heavy troops are strictly guarded, and it looks heavily guarded.

"Tenth brother, you're here!" A man in brocade hurriedly came towards Su Qingcheng, and after seeing Jiang Cailing beside him, he changed his words, "My brother and sister are also here." ”

"I've seen His Royal Highness."

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Ah Cai was busy greeting him, as if he was a shopkeeper, and when he saw Su Qingcheng coming, Ah Cai's burly body moved over, and a warm smile appeared on his honest face, "I have seen the Ten Highnesses, I have seen the Ten Imperial Princesses." ”

Jiang Cailing raised her eyebrows and asked, "What about you Boss Liu?" ”

"Our boss has recently had a cold, and he is afraid of colliding with distinguished guests, so he rests in the room."

"I see." I thought it should be because of Li Yan's relationship, so Liu Minglou deliberately called himself sick and hid. Although she doesn't know what entanglements there are between the two of them, in her eyes, Li Yan and Liu Minglou are like a cat-and-mouse relationship, one is looking for and the other is avoiding, which is also very interesting.

"Last time, I heard Ah Xiao say that in the restaurant, Boss Liu used a slight punishment in the face of those who maliciously slandered the reputation of the concubine, and today the concubine came to thank Boss Liu in person. Knowing that you boss Liu likes calligraphy and painting, he specially prepared a picture scroll to be a little polite. This concubine is a little skilled in medicine, and she is not afraid of being infected with diseases. ”

The implication is that we must see each other.

Ah Cai lowered his head and thought for a while, Li Yan went out in the morning, and it is estimated that he will not come back for a while and a half, after all, this is in the territory of Chu State, if the imperial concubine refuses to summon her, I am afraid it will not be good, so he said, "Ten imperial concubines, please follow the little two to the private room, the small one is to inform our boss." ”

……

In the first-class room of the whole post house, Liu Minglou was meditating with the Zen master, trying to calm the anger of the past few days.

Gu Jiming, that guy looked well-dressed, but he was actually a beast. Even knowing that he was hiding from Li Yan, he brought Li Yan to Chu State, and he still wanted to live in his post house.

"Knock-"

The knock sounded, and Ah Cai knocked on the door and entered, interrupting Liu Minglou's sit-in, "Son, the Ten Imperial Concubines are here, and they want to see you by name." ”

As soon as he heard that Jiang Cailing was coming, Liu Minglou angrily threw the agate beads in his hand, stood up straight, and said angrily: "Okay, it's okay if the concubine is here, and the new and old hatreds will be settled together!" ”

"Donor, don't be impatient, please continue to follow the old man......"

"Damn, don't be a big-headed ghost! Ah Cai, send the abbot back to the temple, the anger in this heart can be calmed by meditating and counting beads, if I want to say, I can be violent and violent! Gu Jiming, that guy dares to trick me"

The master closed his eyes and sighed helplessly, "Greed, hatred, and ignorance poison sentient beings, such as three fires and three poisons, causing sentient beings to suffer for a long time and cannot leave, which is the three poisons. ”

Liu Minglou didn't have the heart to care about the master's bitter words, so he rushed to the private room where Jiang Cailing was with his arms and sleeves.

"He Ling'er, you're embarrassed to come!" The sound insulation of the post house is very good, and there is no need to worry about the situation that the partition wall has ears.

Jiang Cailing was stunned for a moment, the last time she saw Liu Minglou, she was obviously more stable, but she didn't expect it to be like this again, and sighed, "I didn't expect you to be really sick, and you are not lightly ill." ”

"You're sick! You and your concubine played Lao Tzu around, doesn't it mean a lot? ”

Jiang Cailing frowned, "What do you mean?" ”

"You're still pretending?" Liu Minglou was so angry that he repeated the cause and the result of the incident, and asked angrily, "Lao Tzu has done his best to help you, but how did you treat Lao Tzu!" Lao Tzu left his hometown to avoid that scumbag, but Gu Jiming sent him to Chu again! Don't say that this is all decided by the emperor, of course the little emperor will listen to Gu Jiming's words at such a young age! ”

Knowing everything Gu Jiming did secretly, his heart was full of emotion, but when he heard the last sentence, Jiang Cailing's eyes were dyed with seriousness, "The emperor has grown up, Gu Jiming is not a traitor who coerced the princes of the Son of Heaven, the reason why Li Yan was able to become an envoy to the Chu State was naturally because the emperor appreciated and appointed him." ”

Liu Minglou snorted coldly, "Whether you are loyal or traitorous, it's all up to you." ”

Jiang Cailing knew that she had to stabilize Liu Minglou, so she said solemnly, "I can help you and help you avoid Li Yan during this period, but you have to tell me, what kind of enmity do you have with Li Yan?" ”

Liu Minglou's eyes changed, the hand in the golden sleeve gradually clenched into a fist, and his lips trembled with anger, "The revenge of killing my father is not shared, but I don't have the ability to kill him now, but one day I will kill him with my own hands!" ”
