Chapter 153: Protection

Jiang Ning showed a little surprise on her face, but then, her mind unconsciously recalled the incident of going to the palace to climb over the wall that day, and laughed out loud, and then sat down.

Jiang Ning was holding the cup of tea in his hand, the edge of the teacup was still warm, and he must have been drying here for a long time.

She picked up the teacup and brought it to her lips and took a sip, the tea rhyme was clear, her mouth was fragrant, and even the boredom in her heart dissipated a little.

"Hongu agreed."

Jiang Ning's face was shocked, he was accepted so easily before he could say his request, what if he made an excessive request?

"Niangniang knows the concubine's request?"

Liu Jinfu was noncommittal.

"What does the lady mean that you agree to go to my vegetable garden to help me grow vegetables after returning to the palace?"

Liu Jinfu was stunned for a moment, raised his head slightly, and was facing Jiang Ning's somewhat exaggerated face.

She laughed out loud unrecognizable, the laughter was coquettish and bright, and after a long time, she stopped laughing, and said with some anger: "You girl." ”

Liu Jinfu coughed lightly twice, her expression recovered freely, she took out a small packet of medicinal powder from her sleeve and handed it to Jiang Ning, the medicinal powder was wrapped in ordinary oiled paper, which was only half the size of a palm, and it looked quite like some kind of terrible poison, "You can take this medicinal powder with you, throw it out at a critical moment, it can make people's eyes burn, and it can temporarily delay time for this palace to save you." ”

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, and carefully put away the medicinal powder on the table.

"Thank you, mother." She suddenly felt a little guilty, since she entered the palace, she has been protected by various people, and now there are more and more favors owed to her.

"But this time it's on her own territory, the queen shouldn't dare to make such a blatant move, but it always doesn't hurt to be more careful." The teacup in her hand turned, "I don't know what is good about this man, he can let her do this." ”

Jiang Ning was shocked in his heart, and he probably understood that the man in Liu Jinfu's mouth was Mu Jingzhao.

Liu Jinfu didn't know that Shen Qingrong's family was planning to let Jiang Ning marry instead, and naturally he didn't know the hidden ambition in Lord Shen's actions.

Therefore, all of this fell into Liu Jinfu's eyes, and it was natural that Shen Qingrong did not hesitate to offend the Jiang and Liu families in order to gain Mu Jingzhao's favor.

The corners of Jiang Ning's mouth twitched, she never expected that the queen's style of acting would be like this in the eyes of others.

However, she was a little confused, didn't Liu Jinfu also fall in love with Mu Jingzhao? Otherwise, how could she help several times, even at the expense of offending her own brother.

Despite this, Jiang Ning did not say anything to ask.

On the contrary, Liu Jinfu seemed to suddenly think of the inseparable relationship between Mu Jingzhao and Jiang Ning, and suddenly felt that there was something wrong with his words, "This feeling, being a person is a mistake." She turned the teacup in her hand, looked up and drank the wine from the cup.

Jiang Ning finally failed to suppress the curiosity in his heart, "Niangniang, what are your plans for this trip?" ”

As soon as she heard what Mu Jingzhao meant, it seemed that she would wait until Lin Zheng to make a decision, but since Mu Jingzhao had chosen to go out on patrol, he must have his own reasons.

"Plan?" Liu Jinfu looked surprised, "How would I know." ”

Jiang Ning was shocked, she originally thought that this matter was planned by Mu Jingzhao and Liu Jinfu at the beginning, whether it was hunting or Liu Jinfu coming out on top and traveling collectively.

Without waiting for her to speak, Liu Jinfu continued, "My relationship with the emperor is not good, and he won't tell me about such important things. ”

"But ......"

"I just don't want to make a wedding dress for my straw bale brother, it has nothing to do with the emperor."

Jiang Ning's surprise was even worse, according to ordinary logic, the comradeship of galloping side by side and fighting together for many years, coupled with the sacrifice of one's life at the moment of crisis, and the love of husband and wife who have respected each other for many years, all of this is enough to make Liu Jinfu and Mu Jingzhao deeply affectionate.

But now, when she saw Liu Jinfu's indifferent expression, and when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't find the slightest proof that Liu Jinfu cared about Mu Jingzhao, and she was a little stunned.

Between the words, Liu Jinfu slowly lowered his head, and there seemed to be a little sadness in his eyes.

Jiang Ning suddenly felt a little guilty in her heart, after all, she had seen the disagreement between Liu Jinfu and Liu Bing these days, and now that she mentioned Liu Jinfu's sadness, Liu Jinfu naturally felt sad.

"Niangniang......." She wanted to say comfort, but she didn't know how to speak for a while.

"Nothing." Liu Jinfu raised her head slightly, her face returned to her usual gentle smile, the sadness in her eyes had long since disappeared, and Jiang Ning even wondered if she was delusional.

"It's not too early now, you should go back and rest early."

Since Liu Jinfu had already issued an eviction order, Jiang Ning was embarrassed to stay for a long time, so he casually found an excuse to say goodbye, and got up to leave.

One night, Jiang Ning did not sleep peacefully.

Even if she was extremely tired, as soon as she closed her eyes, she could see the devastation and bleakness she had witnessed outside the city, she had only been away from her hometown for three years, and now her hometown had fallen into such a desolate scene, she couldn't tell what it was like.

After a sleepless night, Jiang Ning was even more dizzy and sore when she got up, and even when she took her to have breakfast with everyone, she was a little out of shape.

Now they are all in a big house, not as far away as the palace, and their style of acting inexplicably has the appearance of a large private mansion, and they eat together every day.

She was in very poor spirits, and it was inevitable that she would lose some of her temper at the dinner table, but fortunately, instead of reproaching her, the queen asked her if she was not feeling well.

As soon as she asked, a series of inquiries and concerns rushed towards Jiang Ning, smashing Jiang Ning into a daze.

Although she has always been good at communicating, she is not feeling well at this time and is too lazy to deal with it.

Finally survived breakfast, and she was about to go back to the room to catch up on sleep, but she was stopped by Mu Jingzhao as soon as she left the hall.

"Jiang Ning."

It was Mu Jingzhao's voice, these days outside the palace, he deliberately concealed his identity to avoid the title of concubine, and the two of them were angry, so they couldn't call him by his name.

"What's the matter?" Jiang Ning turned her head to face him and asked weakly, she was physically and mentally exhausted, and she couldn't even open her eyes.

"Pack up your things and go out with me."

This sentence is undoubtedly a thunderbolt for Jiang Ning, "Why? ”

"I want to go out and find out what's really going on in the city."

"Are the concubines and queens going?"

"No, no."

Jiang Ning was suddenly a little annoyed in his heart, "Why? ”

"Do you want to share a house with the Queen?"

Jiang Ning was speechless, of course she knew that Mu Jingzhao's purpose was not this, but when the other party said this, she really couldn't refute it.

After all, no matter how big things are, they are not as important as life.
