Chapter Fifty-Seven: A Late Night Visitor

The content of the letter is tantamount to clichΓ©, just reading it is enough to give Cheng Jiyuan a headache.

She never expected that her brother would be able to say those high-sounding words, what is called not to worry, the wicked have their own wicked grinding, it's not that the time has not yet come......

Oh, when is the time?

Cheng Jiyuan lowered his eyes slightly, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes in the night.

Suddenly, a small voice came from behind him.

Cheng Jiyuan immediately tensed his nerves, quickly took out a dagger from under the low table and protected it in front of him, and said in a cold voice: "Who!" ”

Didn't a thief get in?

It shouldn't be!

For a while, Cheng Jiyuan's thoughts turned a thousand times, and he always felt that the person who came was not good, but he should not be a thief.

After all, this is the realm of Huangzhuang, not to mention that the owner of this Zhuangzi is the son of the champion Hou family, as long as he has brains, he will never put his mind on this.

She cautiously got off the bed, tightened the dagger in her hand, and spoke again at the place where the voice came from: "Who is it, don't you come out quickly, do you have to let this girl call someone." ”

As soon as these words came out, the other party moved his position again, and happened to bump into a wooden shelf that made a screeching sound.

Cheng Jiyuan was so frightened that she tensed up, but she didn't dare to go any further.

Just when she was at a loss, a long figure slowly walked in from outside.

However, Cheng Jiyuan's eyes instantly widened when he saw someone coming, revealing an incredible look.

"His Royal Highness ...... the Prince"

Cheng Jiyuan squeezed out these four words with confusion and difficulty, and her eyes were still full of incomprehension.

What did you do when you didn't sleep in the middle of the night?

Could it be that this season Dou still wants to learn what those flower thieves do to her?

Thinking of this, Ji Yuan's gaze at Ji Dou became more and more unkind, and the dagger that was about to be put down was picked up and protected in front of him again, as if as long as the person in front of him stepped forward, he would not hesitate to stab it.

"You, don't come here." Cheng Jiyuan said tremblingly.

Listening to her little trill, Ji Dou immediately understood that she had misunderstood, and he was a little helpless in his heart, and he also showed a helpless smile on his face.

"I heard from someone below that you haven't slept yet, so I thought I'd come over and have a look." Ji Dou was the first to explain, and then said, "Ah Yuan, don't worry, I won't do anything to you." ”

At least not yet......

Cheng Jiyuan listened to this sentence but still did not feel at ease, but became more and more vigilant, and said with a cautious face: "So His Highness secretly sent someone to spy on his courtiers?" ”

Ji Dou was slightly stunned, obviously she didn't expect her to think of this.

"No, it's just that there are people patrolling outside the Zhuangzi all the time, and I happened to see that the lights on the eaves of Langyuan had not been extinguished, and the people below didn't dare to disturb you, so they came to report one or two." Ji Dou casually found an excuse to prevaricate.

In fact, after listening to the subordinate report on what Cheng Jiyuan did today, he somehow became more and more irritable, and he couldn't sleep for a while, so he wandered around in the Zhuangzi, and walked to the gate of Langyuan.

Somehow I thought about coming over to take a look, who would have thought that as soon as I walked in and found that the light under the eaves was still on, I thought that she should not be asleep yet, and planned to knock on the door and come in again.

But before he could move, the door opened on its own.

As soon as the door opened, he walked in spontaneously.

But after coming in, he regretted it, you must know that it is the middle of the night, and the other party is everyone's girlfriend, if she is seen, it will naturally ruin her reputation, although he is willing to be responsible, but this matter is not good, so he plans to leave.

However, he was discovered without waiting for him to leave, and he originally thought that it would be okay for a subtle voice to be discovered, thinking that it would be okay to leave secretly, and it would be a big deal to come back tomorrow morning to ask for guilt, but he couldn't stand Cheng Yuanyuan's vigilance and stubbornness, and he was a thief with a weak heart, and accidentally bumped into the wooden shelf, so he had no choice but to show up.

In the dark night, Cheng Jiyuan couldn't see the other party's expression clearly, but when she heard him say that it was because the light under the eaves had not been extinguished, she thought she had not slept before coming in......

Tsk, the devil would believe such a thing!

Suddenly, Cheng Jiyuan's gaze at Ji Dou became more and more unkind.

Ji Dou felt the displeasure coming from the other party, touched his nose in embarrassment and weakness, and coughed lightly before he said slowly: "Ah Yuan, if you are not sleepy now, you might as well sit down and chat, it just so happened that I just ran an errand tonight, maybe you will be interested." ”

Seeing him change the topic so bluntly, he understood the meaning of the other party's words.

Fortunately, Cheng Jiyuan didn't want to ruin the little shallow cooperative relationship between the two because of this incident, so he took a deep breath, put the dagger on the low table beside him, and said calmly: "Since His Royal Highness has spoken, what objections does the courtiers have?" ”

Immediately, Cheng Jiyuan got up and lit a bronze oil lamp behind the low couch.

In an instant, the room, which had been shrouded in darkness, was filled with dim lights, and she stood by the oil lamp with a more and more cold face.

Ji Dou happened to take this side of the face into his eyes, rubbed his fingertips uncomfortably, and at her invitation, he walked frankly to the low couch and sat down, raising a wanton smile as usual.

"I'm really sorry, I should have scared you."

Anyway, this apology should still be said.

Cheng Jiyuan didn't bother to think about whether his late-night visit was intentional or unintentional, so he directly poured him a cup of tea, and said lightly: "The people who are serving at this hour are asleep, and the tea is almost cold, so I can only let His Highness be on the way." ”

Ji Dou didn't mind whether the tea was cold or not, and he knew that the matter had just passed for the time being.

He smiled and drank the tea, and then put it down without her moving again, poured a cup and put it in front of him before he said slowly: "Today I took someone to copy the place twenty miles away from Xishan, arrested a lot of people, and asked the people below to interrogate, I think there should be good news coming." ”

Cheng Jiyuan was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then raised her eyebrows slightly, and said softly: "Your Highness means ......"

"Your Majesty intends to hide this matter, and I, as a courtier, should do a good job." Ji Dou mockingly hooked the corners of his lips and continued, "This matter is very important, I naturally have to check everything about this matter inside and out, up and down, including the account book of his weapons sales, the source of funds for building weapons, and his connections......"

This time, Ji Dou made all the words clear, Rao is Cheng Jiyuan, a person who doesn't know much about court politics, also turned around in an instant when he heard such straightforward words, his eyes lit up, and he looked at him excitedly and said: "If these are found out and handed over to Your Majesty, then Tang Wenqi will have to lose his skin even if he is not dead, right?" ”

Ji Dou didn't answer her directly, but just said with a smile: "Your Majesty's most disgusting thing is that someone deceives him." ”
