Chapter Twenty-Three: No Way Back

readx;

Jiang Muxue held the demon and taught the demon to read and write softly, and listened to Chu Nan indignantly talking about the arrogance of the Prince of Montenegro, feeling a little funny, raised his head and said: "Since you are so unhappy, why don't you drag him down and beat him up to get angry? Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The demon also raised his head, looked at Chu Nan with big shining eyes, and said angrily: "Kill him!"

Jiang Muxue was stunned for a moment, snorted coldly and patted the demon's head, and did not mean to teach the demon, and said with a smile: "Don't interject when adults talk and children, if you can't finish writing these words today, you won't have dinner to eat." ”

Chu Nan sighed, walked over and stroked the little head of the demon demon, and was angrily thrown away by the demon demon, and he didn't care, knowing that the demon demon was resentful of reluctifying himself for letting her pigeon and not taking her out to play, he shook his head with a smile and said: "If it's in the northwest, it's not too difficult to kill, but it's a pity, not now, you have to take into account the influence of all aspects, it's not fun to be happy and revenge." ”

Jiang Muxue lowered her head and said softly: "I have always felt that the arrogant swordsman who dominated the world in the past is really you, and it is really suitable for your lifestyle. However, now you have too many entanglements, and if you continue like this, all your sharpness will be consumed sooner or later, and it will not be easy to break free. ”

Chu Nan was noncommittal, and said: "No way, it's really good to live like that before, but it's also very tiring, and it's good to rest now." ”

Jiang Muxue was a little excited, stared at Chu Nan's eyes and said quickly: "Do you think this is what you are talking about?" In fact, you also know in your heart, now that you have a wife and a lover, for them, for the family, and even for your country, you will never be able to go back!"

Chu Nan glanced at Jiang Muxue, lowered his head and said with a smile: "Why do you want to go back? Who can really go back? In the past, you would faint with fear when you saw blood, but now you can teach demons to kill, and you can destroy all the people who betrayed you before and hurt you, can you go back?"

Jiang Muxue was a little lonely, thought quietly for a while, and laughed again, "Yes, everyone can't go back, everyone is doing well now, that's enough, it's my mistake." ”

Chu Nan quietly looked at Jiang Muxue's pure smile, as if he wanted to see something else from it, and said with a smile for a long time: "You are not wrong, it is the world that is wrong." ”

Jiang Muxue raised her eyebrows, didn't pick up the topic, patted the demon and let her go inside to read the book, and said lightly: "If that idiot offends you again, you can tell him your identity in Vasai, or tell me, sometimes what I say is still useful." ”

Chu Nan watched the demon run in angrily, shook his head funny, and refused: "I'm just scratching my hair, I didn't think about letting a woman stand up for me, at least, that idiot is not qualified." ”

Jiang Muxue chuckled, put her hand on Chu Nan's shoulder, and snorted softly, "This is a little like you before." You're right, that idiot isn't worth it, and I look forward to the day when you ask me, but tell you ahead of time, you have to be prepared, I might reject you. ”

Chu Nan pursed his lips, looked at Jiang Muxue who was sticking to his side, and suddenly remembered the spring dream he had when he was taking a nap with bayberry at noon today, reached out and touched Jiang Muxue's cheek, his heart trembled slightly, sure enough, the touch was like in a dream, tender and smooth, there was also a faint coolness, looking at Jiang Muxue and said in a low voice: "Is it more like it now?"

Jiang Muxue's face stiffened with a smile, and she was a little shocked by Chu Nan's sudden flirtation, but fortunately, she was not the poor little woman she used to be, so she quickly adjusted her mood, took a step back quietly, and said with a smile: "No, it's not like it at all, you didn't have such courage before." ”

Chu Nan withdrew his hand stupidly, naturally he couldn't say that he was a thief at the beginning, and he was looked at by Fei Ying, even if he really suddenly had the courage and didn't have a chance to start, he continued to be cheeky, and said with some regret: "It's a pity, why didn't I start at the beginning? ”

Jiang Muxue glanced at the demon who was secretly looking here, so frightened that the demon hurriedly lowered his head and continued to read, turned his head and glanced at Chu Nan with a smile, stared at Chu Nan and said: "It's not too late now, as long as you go back to Vasai with me, or you can completely convince me again, you can do whatever you want, you can do it at any time." ”

Chu Nan naturally won't follow Jiang Muxue back to Vasai, speaking of which, now that there is bayberry at home, Guan He lives on Furong Street, and Yang Lin is waiting to pass through the door, as well as Xian'er............ Shaking his head and not continuing the topic, he asked casually, "By the way, what did you and Prince Heng say today?"

Jiang Muxue looked at Chu Nan and diverted the topic, a little disappointed, and lowered her head and asked, "This question, are you asking this question as the demon's father-in-law and Prince Vasai, or as an official of Daliang and the young master of the Chu family?"

Chu Nan looked at Jiang Muxue, a little annoyed, frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you today?" It's weird, I just ask, in what capacity do you ask, and what's the difference?"

Jiang Muxue was not afraid, she looked at Chu Nan calmly and said: "Of course there is a difference, if it is the former, of course I have nothing to hide, I will not hide anything you want to know, just like in Vasai before." But if it's the latter, you know, then you're Vasai's political enemy, and I can't reveal Vasai's hole cards to you, unless, you're like Prince Heng, and you can tell me the secrets of Daliang. ”

Chu Nan was really annoyed today, frowning and sneering: "What, do you mean that I dislike my low status and am not qualified to talk to Her Majesty the Honorable Queen?" Haha, what a joke, the entire Vasai was supported by me at the beginning, and the army and caravan officials ............"

Jiang Muxue's face still did not change, and said calmly: "This is not a contradiction............ You're right, I should be grateful to you, everything you gave me............ However, now Vasai is mine, and it will be a demon in the future............"

................................. Chu Nan rubbed his eyebrows, sighed and said, "Okay, I don't quarrel with you, and I don't have the desire to grab anything from you......"

"You can't snatch ............," Jiang Muxue interrupted unceremoniously.

Chu Nan was a little crazy, and said viciously: "Believe it or not, I'll kill you now............ No, destroy first and then kill ............"

Jiang Muxue's expression seemed to be smiling, not scared at all.

Chu Nan still couldn't hold it anymore, raised his hand and said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I'm just joking, you have to understand, it's you who want to quarrel with me inexplicably." Forget it, I'm afraid you can't do it? Demon good, I'm leaving, if your mother dares to beat you, remember to tell me, I'll spank her when I turn around."

Jiang Muxue watched the somewhat depressed Chu Nan flee in the wilderness, with a victor's smile on her face, watching Chu Nan gradually walk away, she sighed helplessly, lowered her head and said in an almost inaudible voice: "...... Can't go back............"

.......................................................................................................................................... Chu Nan was a little bored, but he welcomed another heavyweight foreign envoy, Prince Montenegro, into the Sifang Pavilion, and came to visit Queen Vasai again, speaking of which, he could also be idle for a few days, and the remaining few missions that had not yet arrived in the capital were really nothing to pay attention to, probably the kind of covetous return gift from Liang to make fun.

That being said, if you really want to hide at home and not come out, you will have to be involved a few times by those imperial historians who are idle and wide-eyed to find faults, at least Chu Nan has not forgotten, Liang Rang, the right imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Guo Xianyan, the champion of the new department, Guo Yushi are his opponents, and with a bright and bright reason, Chu Nan has no reason not to believe that those two people will give him a hard time.

Chu Nan thought about it, he couldn't just leave, or he would take the initiative to hand over the handle to the opponent, no matter how powerful the Chu family was, he wouldn't be able to stand up to those imperial historians and Qingliu joining forces to complain, and after thinking about it for a while, he still walked towards the Ministry of Rites helplessly, I can go to the boss in charge to ask for leave first.

Sun Ke was listening to Ou Xiaohua's detailed description of the movements of the Sifang Pavilion in the past few days, from Queen Jiang's deep residence to Prince Montenegro's bravado, of course, Ou Xiaohua also focused on the humiliation of his boss Chu Nan Chu, not only was he called in by Queen Jiang every day to teach a lesson, but he also had to swallow his anger at the arrogant and domineering Prince of Montenegro, although this is already a basic quality that everyone in the Ministry of Rites must have, but it is a great performance to appear on Chu Nan.

Seeing Chu Nan come in, Ou Xiaohua's body stiffened, and she retreated to the side with some embarrassment and bowed her head without speaking, no matter what, Chu Nan is Ou Xiaohua's benefactor and direct boss, so hiding from her direct boss is a taboo in officialdom, and it is easy to provoke Chu Nan to turn his face, and Ou Xiaohua also understands this truth, and knows that the consequences of Chu Nan's turning his face are definitely something he can't afford.

Sun Ke saw Chu Nan coming in, waved his hand to let Ou Xiaohua retreat, without the slightest embarrassment of pressing the nail next to his subordinates and being exposed in person, nodded with a smile and said: "Lord Chu has done a good job recently, but you must guard against arrogance and rashness, and when the matter is over, this official will ask Your Majesty for credit for you............"

Chu Nan glanced at Ou Xiaohua and nodded slightly, so he didn't have the heart to pay attention to these subsections, just press the nails, it's not a big deal, uh-huh, ahh

Sun Cao was stunned, looked at Chu Nan and said hesitantly: "You said you want to ask for leave? In fact, there are few left, if you let go at this time, I will not be able to explain to Your Majesty." ”

Chu Nan naturally understands the truth, there can't be a beginning and an end, and this credit can't all be pressed on himself, but today he quarreled with Jiang Muxue, which made Chu Nan a little disheartened for a while, and he didn't have the heart to worry about these, anyway, it is impossible for Emperor Liang not to give himself any credit, eat alone and not get fat, at this time, taking a step back can at least dispel the jealousy of some people, right?
