The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Jiang Ci and Yan Shu left the village before dawn that day, and finally arrived at Rongcheng ten days later. After entering the city, they temporarily settled in an inn.

Rongcheng is the northernmost city. Further north, it passes through three counties and is the junction with Rongdi. These three counties are Mucang County, Fenglin County, and Changshan County. Qingyun Mountain is located in Within Fenglin County, Rongcheng has always been the most important pass in northern Xinjiang.

As soon as the Marquis of Zhenbei died, he was in the embarrassing situation of having no generals available. Feng Jinyuan was the top martial arts scholar in Hongwu for three years. He had been serving in the Ministry of War before. Now being sent by the old emperor to guard Rongcheng was more like chasing a duck.

In fact, in addition to the Marquis of Zhenbei, another brave general who was good at fighting was the Marquis of Yongding Liu Bin. He had been practicing in the frontier for many years when he was a boy. He went on many expeditions with the army to repel the Rong Di invasion. In addition to being afraid of the Marquis of Zhenbei, the Rong Di army also feared the Marquis of Zhenbei. Only Liu Bin could still catch their eyes.

It's just that Liu Bin has 50,000 private soldiers from the Northern Hebei Army, and the Yongding Marquis Mansion has guarded the Xinyang Mansion for generations, so it is impossible for His Majesty to leave the important task of guarding the North Gate to the Liu family.

"Master, when we get to Rongcheng, do we want to meet Feng Jinyuan for a while?"

Jiang Ci pondered for a moment: "I heard that Feng Jinyuan's back house is not peaceful?"

"It is indeed rumored that Feng Jinyuan was extremely fond of a concubine. In the past two years, the concubine relied on Feng Jinyuan's favor to repeatedly provoke and frame the principal wife. Feng Jinyuan's eldest son did not want to see his biological mother being humiliated and personally found out that concubine and framed the principal wife. When the evidence was conclusive, the concubine just cried and felt aggrieved, so Feng Jinyuan severely punished his eldest son with a cane, and almost divorced his wife. Later, I heard that it was his aide who After persuading him, Feng Jinyuan did not expel his wife from court because he was afraid that he would ruin his reputation by doting on his concubine and killing his wife."

Jiang Cidao: "Such a disloyal person is not worthy of close friendship. Has his legitimate son followed him to Rongcheng now?"

"The eldest son has also come, and Feng Jinyuan's concubine is also accompanying the army. It seems that Feng Jinyuan really loves this concubine."

Jiang Ci curled his lips sarcastically: "Go and find out who Feng Jinyuan's eldest son is, and send someone to keep an eye on his concubine."

"Yes!"

When Jiang Ci returned to the guest room, Yan Shu had just come out of the space and was sitting in front of the dowry, combing his half-dried long hair.

She was wearing a water-blue smoked gauze and floral undershirt, and a crescent-colored short undershirt embroidered with orchids. Her waist-length hair was spread smoothly behind her, and the woman's eyes reflected in the bronze mirror. The spring water flows with clear waves, like a fairy falling into the mortal world under the quiet moonlight...

"Why are you standing there in a daze? You came back so late, but have you eaten yet?"

Jiang Ci retracted his thoughts, closed the door smoothly and walked straight to the dowry. He naturally reached out and picked up the wooden comb on the dowry, and gently helped Yan Shu comb his long hair.

"There are many former members of Marquis Zhenbei in Rongcheng. I took the time to meet them today. What did Jiaojiao do this day?"

Yan Shu looked through the bronze mirror at the man behind him who was combing his hair.

"I took a nap after you left and woke up not long ago. I just went to the space to take a bath. It seems that you have been very busy since you came to Rongcheng, but do you want to stay in Rongcheng for two more days?"

"You don't have to wait long. The purpose of this trip is to go to Qingyun Mountain to see you. However, there are indeed some things to deal with right now. It will probably take two or three days."

Yan Shu smiled: "My health is almost healed, but you are worried. It is more important to deal with your matters first. We have experienced various scenery in the north during this trip. Although we were very happy along the way, we were so busy. It’s been more than a month and it’s still too much, so I might as well stop and rest for a few days. I haven’t left the inn today, and I don’t know what the situation in Rongcheng is like now.”

Jiang Cidao: "There are not many people left in the city. These barbarians in the north are committing all kinds of crimes, including burning, killing and looting. Many houses and shops in the city have been smashed and burned. I will take you to walk around the streets tomorrow when I have time."

"Okay, I also want to see the situation in Rongcheng with my own eyes."

Yan Shu rolled his eyes and pointed behind the screen: "The second brother brought the bathing water just now. You can wash outside today."

Although he had eaten and slept in the open air along the way, Yan Shu had some space. If he couldn't hold it any longer, he found a place where no one was around. The two of them went into the space and took a quick bath without worrying about personal hygiene.

Rongcheng was seriously short of water. The inn had just delivered a bucket of water. It was extremely expensive, but she still had to do some superficial work, so she reluctantly spent ten taels of silver to buy this bucket. Water, the rest of the water is released from the space.

Jiang Ci glanced at Yan Shu through the bronze mirror and felt that there was some calculation in the little fox's eyes today. Although he didn't know what bad ideas the little fox had, he was happy to cooperate with her.

"Okay, I'm just about to get ready to take a shower. You should dry your hair before going to bed."

"I know, let's go."

Yan Shu watched Jiang Ci enter the screen, and she placed the things she had prepared on the table from the space.

Everything was ready, Yan Shu sat at the table and waited silently. Listening to the sound of water coming from behind the screen, Yan Shu felt a little nervous and a little excited when he thought about what he would do later.

Today is a special day. Today, she decided to do something big!

The sound of water behind the screen gradually stopped, and Yan Shu stood up and blew out the candlestick on the table.

The room suddenly fell into darkness. Jiang Ci's hand holding the clothes paused slightly. He blinked and quickly adapted to everything around him.

"Jiaojiao, why did the candle go out?"

"Oh, burned out."

Jiang Ci raised his lips and smiled softly, and said in a nonchalant tone: "Ask the shadow guards outside to go downstairs and get one."

Yan Shu wondered: "It's already very late. I think the waiters and the others have gone to bed. The shadow guards are also tired. Let them have a good rest."

Jiang Ci was silent for a moment and then echoed: "That's right."

"Wow!"

There was a sound of water, accompanied by the sound of sparse dressing.

Yan Shu bit his lip and waited quietly for Jiang Ci to come out.

Jiang Ci put on his inner clothes, put his fingers on his outer clothes and stroked it twice, then withdrew his hand and turned around and walked out of the screen.

Yan Shu's heart tightened when he heard the footsteps. He raised his head and looked towards the screen, only to vaguely see a tall figure.

Jiang Ci glanced at the table and saw Yan Shu sitting there blankly staring at him. He pretended not to see her and walked straight to the bed.

"Jiaojiao, are you asleep?"

Seeing the black shadow passing by, he was about to go to the bedside. Yan Shu reached out anxiously to pull him, but accidentally stepped on the hem of his skirt, exclaiming and throwing himself forward.

Jiang Ci hurriedly reached out to hold her waist and pulled her into his arms.

"So careless?"

Yan Shu explained awkwardly: "It was too dark in the room and I accidentally stepped on my skirt. Didn't you see me just now?"

It shouldn't be, she can see him. Jiang Ci has profound martial arts skills, so his eyes should be able to see more clearly than hers.

Jiang Ci coughed lightly: "There is still water vapor in the eyes just after taking a bath, which will affect people's vision."

"Really?" This reason sounds so far-fetched.

"Why are you sitting here? Why don't you go to bed and sleep?"

"Wait for you."

Yan Shu smiled, pushed aside Jiang Ci and walked back to the table. She took out a small thing and pressed it with a "pop" sound, and the thing instantly lit up with a small flame.

Under Jiang Ci's curious gaze, Yan Shu opened the box and lit the two candles on the cake with a small flame in his hand. One was "1" and the other was "7". In terms of one year old, Jiang Ci passed He just turned seventeen tonight, and he is a proper Scorpio boy...
