Chu Ning deeply felt that believing in Jing Yuanyi was a great mistake, and his whole person obviously exuded an unreliable atmosphere. She was completely blinded by the outpouring of her broken wings and abandoned in the vast snow, and she would promise to put everything in place in a moment of arrogance.
When it came to this step of action, I still didn't have a clue.
However, Jing Yuanyi is right about one thing, except for Ji Chongguang's side, she really has no other place to go now. The entire city of Wo has been sealed off, and it is forbidden to enter or leave. Mrs. Li and Ji Chongguang must fight to the death here.
Ji Chongguang is not what it used to be, with the public support of the Jing family, and the posture he goes in and out seems to have the bearing of a prince. Even though he himself was already proficient in magic, there were still countless guards and servants around him, who were responsible for guarding his safety.
When it came time to discuss what kind of identity he was by Ji Chongguang's side, it was Jing Yuan's turn to cover his face in pain: "Qinqi, calligraphy, painting, needlework, you don't even know the same, who will believe it?" Anyway, you are also a girl who grew up in Suyin's family, you don't know that in the eyes of outsiders, Suyin's family is a place where fairies have been produced for generations......"
Speaking of this, Chu Ning was also very helpless. Isn't the most famous fairy in the Suyin family her biological mother Su Tianxin, but Su Tianxin has never taught her these things, and she even suspects that Su Tianxin herself can't learn these things at all, not that she can't learn them, but she doesn't bother to learn them at all.
In desperation, Jing Yuan thought of a bad idea again: "You can be a cook, I will teach you a few hands temporarily, and the rest will depend on you to play freely, anyway, just cook things and eat the dead." β
If these words were heard by Ming instantly, it was estimated that he would be so angry that he couldn't eat for three days, his original master was extraordinary in cooking, but now this, the standard has been lowered to just eat the undead.
Jing Yuanyi's cooking skills are probably practiced in years of wandering, using all kinds of strange methods to cook all kinds of strange ingredients, and the taste is even okay. In addition, Jing Yuanyi also collected a lot of small things with strange functions, such as a silk flower that can be worn on the head to change the appearance.
Chu Ning relied on a few tricks he learned improvised to "eat the undead", and this silk flower with the best taste, and began to infiltrate Ji Chongguang's mansion in Wocheng.
Jing's specially allocated a vacant mansion to Ji Chongguang to live temporarily, the size of the mansion is not large, but it is better because of the exquisite structure inside, and it is very comfortable to live in. Coincidentally, the original cook here happened to burn her foot, and there would be a shortage of manpower for a while, and she needed to make up another cook to come in, so Chu Ning took this opportunity to mix in.
Ji Chongguang is the opposite of Jing Yuanyi, although he eats every meal calmly and elegantly, and seems to enjoy it very much, but he is actually a person who doesn't pay much attention to eating and drinking, as long as the food can fill his stomach.
The servant figured out his temperament, so he didn't pay much attention to the details of the food, and when he saw the new cook coming, he asked her to prepare a meal and send it to the prince of Chongguang.
Chu Ning used a wooden tray to hold the prepared barbecue and millet rice, entered Ji Chongguang's room, and when he raised his eyes, he met his blood-red eyes, as if blood could drip from them at any time. Chu Ning's heart jumped, and he quickly lowered his head.
Gui Mei and Da You stood behind Ji Chongguang, and when they saw that the food was coming, Gui Mei stepped forward and knelt down and cut off the cooked meat piece by piece for him.
Opposite Ji Chongguang, there was also a scholar-like person sitting, holding a small silver cup in his hand, slowly shaking the wine in the cup. This person, Chu Ning also recognized, was the Jun Wang he had seen in the Nine Question Pavilion in Lindu.
Jun Wang shook the wine glass in his hand at Ji Chongguang, and said with a smile: "The people in Wo City are saying that the son of Chongguang who has returned from exile is in the devil to have such unfathomable power, except for the Xun family and the Jing family, the other families have begun to wait and see who can have the last laugh between you and Liji." β
Ji Chongguang didn't even raise his eyes, and replied coldly: "The way I look now, it's no different from being a demon." β
Jun Wang was not annoyed at all, stood up and walked to Ji Chongguang in a few steps, stared at his blood-red eyes and looked carefully, as if he was appreciating a very satisfactory work: "Those people have no knowledge, this is a sign that God favors you, and others can't ask for it." β
Ji Chongguang ignored him anymore, lowered his eyes and put the sliced meat cut by Gui Mei into his mouth.
As soon as Jun Wang turned around, he happened to see that Chu Ning hadn't quit yet, he seemed to be in a good mood, and laughed at Chu Ning: "Yo, the new cook is chic enough, she looks like this, and she wears such a bright red flower on her head." β
When Chu Ning changed his appearance, he saved a few thoughts to add to Jing Yuanyi's blockage, and changed his face to a vulgar and unbearable appearance. Seeing that Jun Wang was going to pick the silk flower, Chu Ning hurriedly turned her head sideways and hid, if the silk flower left the top of her head, she would be exposed, and everyone in this room had seen her true appearance.
Ji Chongguang, who was immersed in eating, suddenly raised his head, his eyes swept over Chu Ning, and he turned back to Gui Mei impatiently and said: "Such an ugly cook, I can't eat anymore, so I will send her out, and someone else will deliver the food in the future." β
Gui Mei still had a wooden face, and stepped forward to "invite" Chu Ning to go out. Chu Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ran away as fast as a rabbit.
The moment she exited the door, she vaguely heard Jun Wang continue to speak to Ji Chongguang: "On the day of the festival, have you considered how to use to make others remember you?" β
Jun Wang's voice was not high, but it always carried an irresistible temptation: "You have endured it for so many years, just for this day, God will give you a chance to make you famous on this day, so that everyone can clearly see who is the real king." β
Chu Ning was not too impressed by Jun Wang, and he had seen only a few faces, only thinking that he was a businessman who was angry with books. But listening to the conversation between him and Ji Chongguang, the uneasy thought in his heart couldn't be suppressed.
She vaguely felt that Jun Wang's person was revealing some ill-intentioned secrets, which caused her to wonder more and more about what he wanted Ji Chongguang to do on the day of the festival.
Counting the hours until midnight, Chu Ning raised his hand to support the silk flower on his head, and after making sure that it was still there, he touched it out lightly. She has never been in the habit of carrying a mirror with her, thinking of her deliberately ugly appearance, and she has no interest in taking a self-portrait in the mirror, just make sure that she will not be recognized.
Ji Chongguang still retains the habits of his time in Dongqi, the entire mansion is not lit, it is lifeless, and he can't even tell that there are people living here.
Chu Ning could barely see the road clearly, and followed the familiar feeling in her heart to find the past, she was not convinced, but her intuition felt that Ji Chongguang would choose where to live, and she would go wherever she went.
This feeling intensified as he approached a room facing south, and he could almost hear the sound of Ji Chongguang's eternal heartbeat.
She looked through the bright light of the stars in the original place, there were a few bamboo slips in front of Ji Chongguang, he was reading, but it was different from the way ordinary people read, he didn't need to look at it, he only groped for the nicks on the book with his fingers, and read it line by line.
The door squeaked, and Sister Gui walked in, knelt down on one knee in front of Ji Chongguang, and told him the things that needed to be judged. Ji Chongguang's answer was short and crisp, and he only used one or two words for each question to give an answer.
After saying most of what Gui Mei was going to say, she suddenly thought about it and asked again: "Childe, Huanxi intercepted a letter to the Xun family to deliver news, and there are six or seven Huanxi Niang who are newly found in the past few days, and I can't judge for a while, which one is the secret pile sent by Mrs. Li." This matter, please show Childe. β
After Ji Chongguang heard what she said, his fingers still moved line by line on the book, and he didn't even raise his head: "If you can't find out, you will kill them all, so as not to harm me at this critical juncture." β
Gui Mei was stunned for a moment, then answered "yes" and withdrew expressionlessly. She has been by Ji Chongguang's side since she was a child, and she always obeys his orders unconditionally.
Chu Ning listened to this conversation outside the room, and his heart suddenly had mixed feelings. She knows that many people will say that Ji Chongguang is an unscrupulous person who wants to regain everything he has lost, and in the past, in order to escape, he could sell his brother who had always been excellent to Mrs. Li, and now he is reckless for his own purposes. He became more and more cold and gloomy, and there was no one close to him.
But she didn't want to believe it, and she didn't know why, her impression of Ji Chongguang always stayed in the secret passage of the mountain behind the Lingque Terrace, holding her warm hand.
He said he would take her out and to a place where there was light. Now that he is sinking in the dark, then she should not let go, she should take him out and go to a place where there is light.
As soon as the thought in my heart moved, there was a stream of water on half of my arm, which flowed from the direction of my heart to my fingertips.
She had already seen the kind of wind chimes that Madame Li used in the palace, and she expected that Ji Chongguang should have something similar around her, so she immediately subconsciously wanted to run.
But before she could act, Ji Chongguang had already broken out of the window, floating in front of her like a ghost, and with a stretch of her long arms, he tightly clamped her in front of her.
Chu Ning watched those blood-red eyes float in front of her, and a thought flashed quickly in her heart: I'm afraid that this life has to be explained here, it is all Jing Yuan's good idea, if there is knowledge behind her, she must be finished with him.
