Chapter 11: Doubts

Qiang Ji covered his ass and climbed back to Shen Yanxi's roof.

The dark guard on the side flattered the greeting: "Lord Qiang, you are okay, I have a bottle of ointment to reduce swelling and relieve pain." ”

As he spoke, he took out a small porcelain vase from his bosom.

"Good boy, throw it at me."

Day 2.

In the cold and damp prison, a woman held the railing in her hand and said in a hoarse voice: "Didn't I say everything? Let me out, it's none of my business. ”

A prison historian walked in, with an iron keychain tied to his waist, and walked with a jingling bell. "Whatever you are arguing about, I will naturally let you out when the time comes."

When the woman saw someone coming, she tried to stretch her head out. "When exactly will I be released?"

Prison Shi smiled: "What's the hurry, I won't beat you here, I won't scold you, I'll let you out after a while." ”

I heard that this woman's dead husband has something to do with a lady in the palace, but it is unknown whether it is a rumor or a real one.

If it was true, how could a little suspicion arrest her? If it's fake, it's just a little preferential.

So the attitude of the prison history is also tepid.

Madame loves cleanliness very much, and how long she has been in this prison, she has been standing in front of the railing. I don't sit when I'm tired, for fear of soiling my jacket and skirt.

Yesterday, she had already explained what had happened, but she quarreled with her husband and went back to her parents' house. How do you know, when I returned to the house, my husband died tragically.

Just as the woman was disheartened, the sound of footsteps outside suddenly came again.

She was dragged out, "Tap, you're hurting me." ”

Just when she thought she could be released, she was taken to the interrogation room, where someone stared at her viciously and threw a cloth bag in front of him.

The moment the lady saw the cloth pocket, her hair stood on end, and she fell directly to the ground with a detachment.

He said tremblingly: "This, what does this mean?" ”

The visitor looked at her appearance for a moment, and then snorted disdainfully: "What do you mean?" You should ask yourself! You should recognize this cloth pocket, right? ”

"Nope! Not mine! What are you doing here? Hurry up and let me go! The woman shouted excitedly.

The official looked at her and sighed: "Until now, you still want us to let you go?" If you don't admit it, I can help you reminisce about it."

"After getting married, the lives of the two in it can be described as quite discordant, and for many years, they have not been able to give birth to a son."

The official observed the woman's expression as he spoke.

"A small quarrel for three days, a big quarrel for five days. The surrounding neighbors dare not speak out. Three months ago, you got along with your groom. They discussed elopement but were discovered. I can't escape a beating! ”

The officials didn't want to waste their time here, so they told her about her crimes succinctly

Then you bought poison and prepared to poison your husband. Yes and no? ”

The woman said bitterly, "No! You're talking nonsense, I don't understand what you're talking about, come up with evidence. ”

The official laughed angrily: "Since I dare to say it, do you think I have no evidence?" ”

"Then I won't talk nonsense with you, drag it over and torture it, save the dead duck from having a hard mouth."

The woman cried out hysterically: "You, I will sue you for your misuse of punishment." Someone, someone, help me. ”

"Don't shout, no one will come to save you if you shout that the sky is broken, just admit the punishment obediently. Oh yes, maybe I should let you meet the groom, come on, bring in. ”

Half an hour later, in Jiang Zhihe's study.

"My lord, this is a confession."

"Oh? Recruited so quickly? Present it and I'll take a look. Jiang Zhihe stopped the brush in his hand and waved it down.

The manager cautiously stepped forward and put the paper on Jiang Zhihe's case.

Jiang Zhihe took the paper and watched it for a moment, and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, the concubine finally has an explanation." ”

Jiang Yu sat on the dresser and let Chun Tao braid her hair in a bun.

"Wow." There was a knock on the door.

"Huh? Why are you here so early today? ”

Every day, Shen Yanxi would send Qiang to invite her to eat.

Jiang Yu went out and opened the courtyard door, but the person who came was Jiang Zhihe's attendant. "What's the matter?"

The attendant saluted Jiang Yu and said, "The lord invites the young lady to go to the study at noon to have dinner together, and send me to inform you." ”

It's a surprise.

"Alright, I got it." Jiang Yu responded, and the attendant saluted again and left.

Chun Tao looked at Jiang Yu worriedly: "Miss, do you want to go and inform the prince?" ”

Jiang Yu said amusedly: "Tell him what to do?" I find that you don't treat the prince as an outsider anymore. ”

Chun Tao Yu Festival, hurriedly said: "No! ”

The people in the house are all man-eating monsters, and during this time, the prince is good to his own lady, and she really sees it in her eyes.

Jiang Yu said: "I know, you are afraid that the prefect will not be good for me." But you have to remember that outsiders are always outsiders. Don't be biased because of the benefits of three melon face dates. ”

Chun Tao knew his mistake: "Then Miss, should we go back and change our well-behaved hair bun again." ”

"No, what to change. Go feed my bunny some grass and don't starve it. ”

Jiang Zhihe could hold his breath more than she imagined.

Shen Yanxi is not ordinary to her, and she has to tell her something no matter what she says.

When Jiang Yu arrived at Jiang Zhihe's study, the aroma of food was already wafting in the air.

She looked at them one by one.

Extremely light.

Anyway, it's also a four-grade prefect, so I'll eat this for lunch.

Jiang Zhihe didn't care too much about Jiang Yu's etiquette: "Xiaoyu is here, sit down." “

"How's it going, I've gained a lot of weight for my father's little face."

...... "If you really can't speak, why don't you speak?"

Jiang Yu still replied with a smile: "I've been eating better recently." ”

Jiang Zhihe laughed: "Blessed, blessed." ”

Jiang Yu picked up the dishes that looked delicious and tasted them one by one, waiting for Jiang Zhihe's next words.

Sure enough, without taking two bites, Jiang Zhihe began to sensationalize leisurely: "You were too bitter when you were a child, when I first saw you, you were still like a little beggar on the side of the road." ”

Jiang Yu didn't move.

"You just stared at me with big eyes, blinking, I asked you if you would like to go back to the house with me, and you didn't speak."

Jiang Yu spit out the ginger slice that she accidentally bit into, thinking about when to get to the point.

Jiang Zhihe incited himself: "I don't know if I was frightened when I was a child or what, my intelligence can't keep up, and most of them are still stuck when I was a child." Fortunately, the water spirit is born, and God gives you a good face. ”

After that, he motioned to the attendant standing next to him to add tea, "Okay, you can step down." ”

The attendant retreated respectfully, and only Jiang Yu and Jiang Zhihe were left in the room.

Jiang Zhihe picked up the tea bowl and took a sip before speaking: "Your father and I have been friends for many years, and we grew up together in the examination when we were children, and my grades were better than my father's, but I was an official in the capital back then. But in order to support the Jiang family to take charge of the country, he died on the battlefield and never came back. ”

Jiang Yu was shocked in her heart, there was still such a relationship.

Before Jiang Yu's father, the entire country did not belong to their Jiang family.

The winner is king, and the loser is. said that it sounded good, and that her father, the emperor, was to save the people from fire and water, and that it was unpleasant to say that this throne was to plot chaos and rebellion.

Jiang Xiaoyu's biological father actually raised his father to ascend to the throne back then!

Is this faint connection accidental?

Jiang Yu suppressed the shock in her heart, and listened to Jiang Zhihe continue, "Who would have thought that you would be favored by the regent, and you will enjoy endless blessings in the future." ”

Jiang Yu's heart trembled again, why did Shen Yanxi approach her?

In her previous life, she explored his life experience many times, but he was powerful and powerful. They were all blocked back one by one.

Shen Yanxi charged into battle on the frontier at the age of sixteen, and the victorious general who won many battles was crowned king at the age of twenty due to too many military achievements, and he was able to participate in the handling of political affairs during the first emperor's period.

And what about sixteen years ago? What about before joining the army?

Where is the hometown, how many people in the family joined the army, and even ...... Is it related to Jiang Xiaoyu? Did you know his father?

It's scary to think about.

A chill rose from Jiang Yu's back, and her scalp was numb.

Why did you borrow a corpse to resurrect your soul? Why is Jiang Xiaoyu's body?

Jiang Yu felt that her soul had wandered out of the sky. Later, Jiang Zhihe told her to please Shen Yanxi, and she should not contradict the disobedient words, and she responded perfunctorily.

"Do you understand all that?" Jiang Zhihe hid his face and sighed, "Alas, why is it just a bad brain." ”

Jiang Yu came out of the study and walked back along the winding path in the house.

Passing by the pond, she stopped and stared blankly at the fish swimming inside.

The previous life was originally over, and the royal brother was an adult and could be on his own. She was already a dead person and should have been buried in the imperial tomb.

Reborn in a lifetime, it seems to have a new life. The lake was supposed to be calm, but the nets still restrained her, making her feel difficult to breathe.

Jiang Yu felt a gaze fall on her in the distance, and she raised her eyes to look.

In the octagonal pavilion by the lake in the distance, there is a touch of azure blue.

Shen Yanxi.

Jiang Yu flashed this person in her mind, and her intuition told her that she would not be anyone else except Shen Yanxi.

She walked up.

The gaze had been on her, watching her figure walk up the pavilion from a distance.

Shen Yanxi sat elegantly in a blue regular suit, with a chessboard on the stone table.

He holds white chess in one hand and black chess in the other, and he plays chess with himself.

"The prince is so interested, it's the first time I've seen you here." Jiang Yu evoked a smile and sat opposite Shen Yanxi.

"What did you eat at noon?" Shen Yanxi avoided Jiang Yu's question.

Jiang Yu didn't answer, didn't avoid his gaze at all, and looked at Shen Yanxi directly.

Shen Yanxi waited for a long time and couldn't wait for an answer, so he lowered his head and continued to study the chessboard.

The two of them were silent, and the air seemed to freeze.

It seemed that the chessboard had encountered an unsolvable state, and Shen Yanxi simply threw away the chess pieces in his hand, "Go back." ”

Qiang immediately limped forward and put away the chessboard.
