Chapter 3 The heart is like a drum

Being looked at by her clear and clear eyes, Wei Zhi was in a trance for a while, could it be that he has been unkempt recently, scribbled to the point of being an uncle?

Jiang Xi's face was full of thin red, her heart was pounding, and her smart eyes were soaked in a touch of water because of embarrassment, she had never met so many young men when she was so old, and she was annoyed that she only cared about laughing, and she accidentally went to the wrong place.

After all, it was everyone's young lady, and the scene still had to be held, so she smiled: "If you are tired, go and have some tea." "She's already here, and if she leaves without saying anything, wouldn't it be embarrassing?

As she spoke, she glanced at the young Langjun who was working in the fields generously, and she was startled if she didn't look at it! That man is here, too! Jiang Xi's heart is like a drum, the last time Mama asked a few times, she covered up the past in a vague way, only said that she went to catch a rabbit and got lost, slipped in the middle of the night and accidentally fainted, and did not tell Mama that she was stuck on the slope and was rescued.

She asked Qihe to bury the silver money under the tree, and no one took it for many days, thinking that she would not see her again in the future, and the matter was over. Who would have thought that he would meet here, and I don't know if he recognized it, Jiang Xi stroked his turban uncomfortably, and the wrapping was still very tight, so he was relieved, thinking that he shouldn't recognize it, this is the best! Since he didn't want to give him money, then there was nothing between them, and if he dared to entangle, he would let the chief entourage sent by His Highness dispose of him. Thinking like this, her eyebrows stretched out, and she walked away with Qihe without squinting.

Because of this experience, Jiang Ji was very interested, and she didn't have the heart to walk on this ridge.

Wei Shi saw that she was first surprised, then frightened, and finally calmed down. knew that this ancestor should have recognized him, but their meeting should not be a glorious thing for her, after all, the man is unmarried, and the woman is to be married, so her reputation is hindered.

But why be afraid? He's fierce? He unconsciously touched his face, thinking that although he was not very handsome, he was not scary, right? How does he know that although he doesn't have bad intentions, he can't prevent others from thinking badly!

Jiang Ji didn't care what Wei Zhi was thinking, she took the maidservant to the pavilion of the steward and supervisor to rest, because she was coming, the steward specially added a beauty couch, and set a stone table, put some melons and fruits on the snacks, and strive to make the little master come and return happy.

She leaned on the beauty couch with a wilted child, and her beautiful eyes stared at the peasants working in the fields, not knowing what she was thinking.

Qianhe only felt that the master seemed to have changed, since the last time she came back, she had become a little different, as if she had grown up all of a sudden, and sometimes there was a layer of fog between her eyebrows, which made people unable to understand.

Jiang's father is an important minister and good general stationed at the border, and she grew up in the north, where the people are rough, simple and pure. I am used to seeing the lonely smoke of the desert and the desolation of the moon in the long ditch, and I am also accustomed to a free and unrestrained and chic life.

When you come to this capital, you are like an eagle in a cage, a fierce horse in a fence, and you can't feel at ease. She longed to leave the villa all day long, but where could she go without it? Wang fu? It's just another cage.

His Royal Highness is famous, known to the whole world, and he is an outstanding person, what kind of woman do you want? What's different about her, she hasn't seen her fiancée for several years of engagement, and she doesn't care about it. If you have a girl you like, where will you put her?

Jiang Ji thought that since she came to the capital to live in the villa, she learned the dignified manner of the woman in the capital, and then did not run wildly on the horse, and suddenly became interested, and she was going to drive the horse, she didn't tell anything, just walked, Qianhe didn't know what she was going to do, and hurriedly followed and asked: "Miss, where are we going?" "

"Go horseback riding!" She replied, very happy, as if she had suddenly wanted to do something.

Seeing that she had been unhappy for a long time, she was finally very happy, so she said, "Is Miss going back on horseback?" "

Jiang Xi ignored her, and Qianhe couldn't figure out what she was thinking for a while, so she just followed.

Her horse is a good horse of the grassland personally selected by her father, because this pony is snow-white all over, without a trace of variegation, so he took the name of a jade slave, and when he gave it to her, he was still a foal, and now he is very tall, and he was obviously very happy to see Jiang Xi, and rubbed her arm affectionately. After Jiang Xi got on the horse, she grabbed the reins and clamped the horse's belly, and galloped away like the wind.

"Miss!" In the past, Jiang Ji would also ride a horse to go out to play, but it was all slow, she could barely follow, with the attendants, how could she be as galloping as today, running out for a long distance in an instant, this ridge is narrow, if something happens, how can she explain? Hurriedly ran and chased, and asked the chief to follow. Those people were obviously practicing their families, and they went to chase after them across the horse, but they were still a little short, and they couldn't see the figure of the young lady in their eyes, and their hearts hung in their throats.

Jiang Xi had the heart to shake them off, and when she heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her, her eyebrows suddenly overflowed with a look of madness, no matter how much the feng shui of the capital nourishes people, she can't get rid of her insolence, and said with a smile: "Jade slave!" Hurry up! Shake them off! "

This horse is quite spiritual, and when he heard this, he raised his hooves and neighed and flew across the ditch, it was a BMW that could travel thousands of miles a day, not to mention that Jiang Xi had ridden a horse since he was a child, although he had not galloped like this for a long time, but the foundation was still there, and he suddenly left those long followers far away. She saw that the jade slave was flying like a reins, and sighed for a moment that it was born to belong to the grassland, but now it was detained in a small mansion with her.

It has not been such a hearty horse for a long time, and the depression in Jiang Xi's heart dissipated in this long wind, and she smiled and left without caring about what was behind her.

But I don't want her to be very high-profile on the ridge like this, and the farmers who work in the fields are puzzled for a while, and they all look at her intently, wondering why this high-ranking girl has her own car and sedan car, why do you need to ride a horse? Stained with dust, wouldn't it be buried?

Older people think like this, those who are only teenagers don't think so, the peasants are poor, and they are used to riding ox carts when they go out, if any family has a horse to travel, it is a great event for the whole village! There is an old horse in Wei Zhi's family, his family was originally a dart traveler who went south and north, and then the family fell in the middle of the road, and came to settle in this village, and his father and mother went early, leaving only the grandfather and grandson to live on a few acres of thin fields.

The old man misses the old, life is difficult and difficult, and he has never sold his horse for money, a few years ago, Wei Zhi also rode the horse to the school, which attracted a lot of envy, but in the past two years, the horse is getting older and older, and he will keep it and never ride it again.

Even if that old horse has won some envy, it goes without saying that Jiang Ji is this horse! From a distance, it is tall and straight, strong and powerful, and what is even more rare is that the white hair is not clean, and you know that it is a good horse at a glance! The sweaty boys in the fields all looked at it with fascination, and even Wei's eyes lit up a little when he saw the horse.

His family is also a rare good horse, and the comparison with Jiang Xi is not enough, he stared at the delicate girl who passed by the horse, and sighed: "The riding skill has not insulted this good horse." "

Jiang Xi rode the horse aimlessly, and her mind was open for a while, as if she had returned to the days when she was still in the northland, where although it was bitterly cold, she was free and carefree.

Now she stays in the villa every day and counts the days to marry a husband who has never seen her, if it goes well, she will be in the palace but she will be alive, if she doesn't know where to go by the way, she will give it to that person, and she will scatter in the future, and I am afraid that there will be no serious people willing to marry. What's more, she has no relatives and no reason in this capital, no power and no power, and the only people she can rely on are the concubine and His Royal Highness.

His Royal Highness didn't care much about her, and he refused to see her for many years, for fear that he hated her in his heart. Thinking of the charming and shy state of that person in the past, Jiang Xi was a little angry, and only fed the dog sincerely! Although he is a cloud in the sky, she Jiang Xi can't go down to the dust. If she doesn't want to marry, she will leave the capital, the sky is high and the sea is wide, where is there no place to stay?

Even if he is willing to marry, she may not be willing to marry! Outsiders praise him to the sky, maybe there is a loss of virtue inside, if the temperament is not her appetite, and marrying is full of fragments, it is better not to marry!

Thinking about it like this, it's better not to marry than to marry in the past, Jiang Xi will no longer be entangled, and look at the things in the future, it won't be bad after all!

Yan Zhao, who was busy with the construction of the canal in Jiangbei, knew that his fiancée was in his heart, and after thinking about it several times, he even made plans to leave the capital.

He was sitting upright in front of the desk at the moment, carefully looking at a letter from nowhere, and a smile on the corner of his mouth. The young man's elegance is not obvious, his face is like a crown of jade, his eyes are like a star, just sitting is like a picture scroll that makes people unable to take their eyes off.

Lord Lin was originally here to report on the construction matters, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw this pleasing scene and was stunned for a while. It wasn't until Yan Zhao raised his eyes to look at him that he reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Your Highness, Cao Yuntong, the world is prosperous!" Now the river excavation has been nearly completed, only waiting for the diversion of water to open the canal, three days later the prefect set up a banquet to celebrate, then please His Royal Highness to spare time. "

"No need, Lord Lin bother." After that, he didn't look at him anymore, only lowered his eyes and looked at the printed note on the table, and there seemed to be joy between his eyebrows.

Lord Lin wondered for a while, although His Royal Highness was young, but he was only seventeen, but he acted old and spicy, his joy and anger were invisible, and his methods were vigorous and resolute, so that people did not dare to hide it in the slightest, and it was not surprising that the invitation to the banquet was rejected. I'm just curious about what makes His Highness so happy, and I don't know what the letter says? He just thought, and he didn't dare to show it on his face, which of His Highness's thoughts could be guessed by others, and bowed down.

After Lord Lin left, Yan Zhao called Xun Yu: "Get ready, return to Beijing tomorrow." "

Jiang Xi rode alone on the ridges and country roads, and saw a lot of novelties along the way, and it was a pleasant afternoon. can be called Qianhe easy to find, and he said all the way, nothing more than unsafe and the like, or she can't explain to her grandmother.

Her ears were about to become calloused, and Jiang Xi scolded impatiently: "Sister Qianhe, don't say it, I know!" Isn't that okay with me? I'm good at horsemanship! "

"My young lady, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case, it's always right to be careful, if you want to run a horse, go to the horse farm at the foot of the mountain, how spacious it is, you don't know that today can scare me, for fear that you will have a good one!" Jiang Xi rode a horse and strolled, stumbling on his heels, panting unevenly.

"But in the racecourse, how can Yu Nu let go and run?" Although Jiang Xi felt sorry for Qianhe and was very tired of chasing her, she still disagreed, and frowned. Today she rode the jade slave galloping, not only she was happy, but even the horse was very excited, obviously she was usually locked up, and she also planned to take the jade slave out for a run when she was free in the future.

Thinking of this, she thought about how nice it would be if the jade slave could gallop on the field at will, and the freedom she couldn't get, wouldn't the horses get it? happened to meet the farmer coming home from work, and Yao Yao recognized the little owner and came forward to greet him, Jiang Xi stopped thinking about it, and raised her head with a smile.

Wei Zhiyao looked at the generous and decent little girl sitting on horseback, with a smile on her eyebrows, and when she saw him, she obviously stopped and skipped very quickly, as if she didn't know him, she knew that this girl didn't want to see him, and said secretly, what a Zhongshan wolf, so she didn't want to attract people's eyes.
