prosperity

Along the way, Ada secretly took care of Zhao Jiamin. Zhao Jiamin naturally sensed the difference in his treatment of her, and immediately realized that her identity was exposed, and she was not hypocritical, and accepted it completely.

It has been half a month since the convoy arrived at a small town under the Anxi Protectorate's Mansion.

On the surface, while discussing the spice business in the city, Ada was secretly looking for the whereabouts of the word Jiawan provided by the man, but unfortunately there was no news.

They didn't know whether Jiawan was a person's name or a place name, half a month later, they were still at a loss.

Summer is coming, Anxi Protectorate's Mansion is more sweltering than the capital, Zhao Jiamin can't sit still, but remembering the previous unhappiness, he doesn't have the face to talk to Ju Jingyi, so he has to go outside alone hang out.Ju Jingyi didn't hold her back, but secretly asked Ada to find some people to pay attention to her safety.

On this day, Ada received an invitation, which was issued by Zhenbao Pavilion, a famous auction place in the city. All parties are welcome to come and participate. He was busy delivering the goods, so he gave it to Ju Jingyi, and Ju Jingyi simply brought Zhao Jiamin over there. Turn around, after all, it's not a solution for them to be so embarrassed all the time.

I originally wanted to relax, but unexpectedly, I got unexpected results.

There are quite a few treasures auctioned by the Treasure Pavilion today, and one of them, a glass cup with a colorful and exquisite animal head, has attracted everyone's attention.As a princess, Zhao Jiamin had never seen any treasures before, so naturally she didn't care about them, but the next introduction made Ju Jingyi tremble.

"...It is said that it was made by the famous master craftsman in Jiawan..."

"What?" Zhao Jiamin didn't know about Jia Wan, but was keenly aware of the change in Ju Jingyi's attitude, "Is there a problem?"

"It's this Jiawan that I asked Ada to look for during this time."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Zhao Jiamin had a clue when he heard it, and wished he could buy the glazed cup immediately, "Just take a picture."

"No need." Ju Jingyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and dragged her to the backstage, "Just ask someone to find out." What's more, they don't have so much money on hand to compete with everyone.

When asked about it, the clerk was also in a daze, and in the end, the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion, who had heard the story told by the seller, explained it on his behalf.This Jiawan is a small country in the Western Regions, and it is quite close to the Anxi Protectorate. It is a pity that the country was destroyed for unknown reasons seven years ago. Soon, no one remembers this country.

Seven years.

This timing is really too coincidental.

Ju Jingyi wanted to ask a few more questions, but unfortunately the shopkeeper of Zhenbao Pavilion couldn't provide any more information, let alone who the seller was.

"It's a pity that I don't know who the seller is." Zhao Jiamin sighed, "Otherwise, I can find someone to ask the specific source of this glazed cup."

The Anxi Protectorate's Mansion is not the capital either, so it is not convenient to check.

"Let Ada pay attention to whether there are artifacts of similar craftsmanship in the lower city." Ju Jingyi smiled, "At least, I have figured out that Jiawan is a small country in the Western Regions."

Zhao Jiamin was fascinated by her smile, and when he realized that his cheeks were slightly hot, he quickly turned his head to look at the street vendor, "That me, I'm going to buy something to eat."

"Ah."

After Zhao Jiamin turned around, the smile on Ju Jingyi's face receded like a tide. Immediately afterwards, the corners of her slightly squinted eyes retracted their curved arcs, revealing the bewilderment and bewilderment concealed by the smile.

Clues were like balls of yarn that she thought had cleared one part of her mind, only to fall into another.

This is far from her initial expectation. Ji's coercion and lure, Yi Chuan's reluctance to speak before parting, and the killer's unwillingness to say more all made her faintly aware that the truth may be more than she thought. More trouble.

The hardest thing to guess is the attitude of the Ji family.

If the government of Zhen Guo is overthrown, then the Ji family will be the biggest target of the court. This impetuous attitude is inconsistent with Ji Yuandao's behavior of retreating in a hurry six years ago.

Could it be that it wasn't Ji's family's idea, but Ji Xingchen's decision alone?

But it's not right, Ji Xingchen is a smart person, he seems to be indifferent, but actually loves power the most, he knows very well that Ji Yuandao's guidance is not harmful to him, but can help him climb to a higher place and gain more power, he It is impossible to do anything without Ji Yuandao's evaluation.

After all, why?

She has never been afraid of the truth, but now she has to admit that she is beginning to be a little afraid of the truth.

But the most important thing right now is to find out the truth.

She sighed, shook off the distracting thoughts in her head, and looked up at Zhao Jiamin.The market was crowded with people, but Zhao Jiamin, who was standing in front of the stall, disappeared.

Ju Jingyi's heart tightened, but it was only a blink of an eye, how could it be.

She hurriedly went up to ask the vendor, but he didn't know where he went, but it was the flower seller next to him who showed him the way.

"A young man with an outstanding appearance dragged that young man away! Hey, that nose, that mouth, are really pretty. This is the first time I have met such a good-looking young man. The young man just now is not as good-looking as him, with black eyes and black eyes. It looks like agate, I really want to reach out and touch it."

How could Ju Jingyi be in the mood to hear her say how good-looking that young man is, but when she heard the last sentence, she suddenly felt blessed and thought of someone.

"Is that man tall, with long hair partly draped, a mole between his eyebrows, a small jasper ring on his left ear, and a jade flute stuck around his waist?"

"Yes, yes." The aunt nodded repeatedly.

Ju Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, but immediately froze in place.

If it is that person, if it is that person.

She didn't dare to think about it anymore, and hurriedly said goodbye to the aunt and walked in the direction where the two left.

Besides Zhao Jiamin, she just looked blank.

I was waiting for the snacks to come out of the pot at the stall, when someone pinched my wrist for no reason, I couldn't resist immediately, and let the other party drag me out of the city, to this barren Gobi.

This person in front of him looks outstanding, and he is dressed in Han Chinese clothes, but I have never seen this person before, and I don't remember that I have borrowed money from others before my death. Could it be that Ye Huazhao himself caused the disaster?

She couldn't help but tentatively asked, "Hero, did I not pay back the money I owe you?"

"No."

The voice is pretty nice, well, looking at the outline of this face now, it seems familiar, but I can't remember who it looks like for a while.

"Then why did you bring me here?"

"Wait someone."

Now Zhao Jiamin understands that this person who dares to love is not aimed at herself, but at Ju Jingyi.

"The villain is just an ordinary boy, you." Zhao Jiamin had a fake smile on his face, "It seems wrong to take hostages."

"Really?" The man raised his voice at the end, with a hint of provocation, "Even if he is a boy, the boy played by the dignified Princess Zhaoyang can't be called ordinary."

Zhao Jiamin's hairs stood on end, wishing he could immediately throw off his shackles and get away from him by three feet.And the man seemed to be aware of her vigilance, and let go of his hand with a chuckle, but he didn't make any other unnecessary moves towards her.

After a while, she found her voice, "You, what are you talking about?"

If before, she hoped that Ju Jingyi would find her quickly, then now, she hoped that Ju Jingyi would never find her.

Being exposed, what she subconsciously thought of was not what to do when her identity was exposed, but what to do when Ju Jingyi knew.

Although Ju Jingyi's attitude towards her was ambiguous and even indulgent, she didn't dare to rely on her. Just recall Ju Jingyi's expression after she was accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason after the evidence was convincing, she...

It was as if a fine needle had been pricked in my chest. It didn't hurt very much, but as long as I breathed, there would be bursts of pain.

Zhao Jiamin subconsciously reached out to caress her chest, and tightened her collar in a panic, unable to say a word.

"The Princess don't need to rush to deny it. After all, when I understood what the bald man did, I was watching."

"What?!" Zhao Jiamin was shocked, and raised his head to meet the man's Danfeng eyes, "You, what did you say?!"

"Hiss." The man frowned, "Could it be that Ye Bingyu didn't tell you?" He sneered and shook his head, "Ridiculous."

Zhao Jiamin's eyes were full of confusion, she really couldn't understand what the man was saying, "No, what are you talking about?"

"Aren't you surprised? Why did I wake up in Ye Huazhao's body?"

"I, I thought, it was just a coincidence."

"There has never been a coincidence in this world. All the coincidences are all man-made." The man said, "After you died, the bald man of Kwang-kang came to me and said that he needed my help to protect the Dharma. I am also surprised that he always likes to talk about cause and effect. The Dafa of Resurrection is a forbidden technique that cannot be acted recklessly, who knows, the first time the old bald donkey acted recklessly was to bring you back to life on Ye Huazhao."

"Master Ye, did you agree?"

"It's better for Ye Bingyu to find out about the old bald man."

Ye Bingyu's strange expression when she just woke up, now that she thinks about it, he must be observing whether she is Zhao Jiamin.

"But Ye Huazhao."

"Ye Huazhao has been a living dead for a long time. Ye Bingyu knew it in his heart, but he has never been willing to give birth to her." The man glanced at the nearby stone wall and said casually, "You are also lucky."

Feeling complicated, Zhao Jiamin didn't know what to say for a while.

"Okay, I've been hiding there and listening for so long, come out."

The man simply didn't want Zhao Jiamin to have a good time. She had just relaxed when another thunderbolt fell.

From behind the stone wall not far away, a person slowly walked out, "Let her go."

"I didn't catch her." The man spread his hands with an innocent expression.

Ju Jingyi was very helpless towards the man's recklessness, and said after a while, "Don't make trouble, please?"

Her tone was gentle, and Zhao Jiamin, who was still at a loss and worried about what she would think, was filled with anger.

What is she doing?She was arrested by this person, instead of worrying about herself, she told this person to stop making trouble?

Immediately, Zhao Jiamin's anger was quickly extinguished by a basin of cold water.

Ju Jingyi knew that she was the princess of Zhaoyang.

Does she feel that she has been lying to her?Could it be that you are angry with her?

Zhao Jiamin's heart seemed to have been scorched by fire at first, and then it seemed to be frozen, leaving only a piece of cold, which made his forehead covered with cold sweat.

But she didn't dare to look at Ju Jingyi, and let herself think wildly there.

The wind in the desert was very dry, and after a while, it took away the cold sweat on her forehead. Now not only her heart, but also her body felt cold.

The man watching the show rolled his eyes and landed on Zhao Jiamin, but he said to Ju Jingyi, "Your little princess is angry, why don't you coax her well?"

The ambiguous tone made the faces of both of them turn red at the same time, Zhao Jiamin couldn't help raising his head and glaring at the man, forgetting to think about it for a moment.

Ju Jingyi pursed her lips without saying a word, and only looked at the man with pleading eyes.

"You cruel girl." The man was finally defeated in the stare at each other, and the man sighed softly, "I didn't dare to go back to the mountain to see me last year, and the letter was only a few words. Maybe in the future, you will do the same To the Princess?"

"Me." Ju Jingyi was so squeezed that she didn't know what to say, she always felt sorry for him.

Zhao Jiamin, who finally stabilized his mood, let out a breath, looked up at the two of them, and asked, "What is the relationship between you two?"

"I'm the uncle of this cruel girl." The man explained lazily, "I won't eat sand with you, I'll go back to the city first and go play with Ada."

It was really like a gust of wind, leaving as soon as it said it, leaving two big fools looking at each other.

"I."

"I."

Zhao Jiamin and Ju Jingyi spoke at the same time, but they didn't dare to look at each other's faces.

"You talk first." Zhao Jiamin said.

Ju Jingyi quickly raised her eyes to look at her, and then looked away, "I didn't deliberately deceive you. I have met Ye Huazhao a few times before. Although she looks similar to you and has a similar personality, she is completely different." Ju Jingyi Jingyi couldn't tell the difference, so she could only continue, "I had doubts when I saw you that time. At that time, I sent someone to observe Wei Shuyu's movements, and I made sure after seeing you contact him." Now Ye Huazhao , is Zhao Jiamin.

"How do you know where Wei Shuyu is?" Zhao Jiamin couldn't help but wonder, if Ju Jingyi knew, why didn't Jijiazhen State Duke's Mansion and even the little emperor Ouyang Shi not notice.

"Prince Jin'an's mansion... After it burned down, I secretly settled Wei Shuyu and others, but I didn't dare to let them know that it was me who helped them."

It must have taken a lot of effort to settle Wei Shuyu and others away from everyone's eyes and ears at that time. A warm current surged in Zhao Jiamin's chest, and he said softly, "Thank you."

"It's nothing."

"Why is your uncle here?"

Ju Jingyi sighed silently, it seems that when she met her uncle, she sighed a lot more, "If I guess correctly, he should be able to help a lot this time."

Zhao Jiamin nodded, "Then, he said just now that you dare not go back and see her."

After waiting for a while, but couldn't wait for Ju Jingyi's answer, Zhao Jiamin couldn't help but look up, but saw Ju Jingyi's face was full of struggle, and there was a faint sadness in his eyes.

"Little Martial Uncle, his name is Sinian."

Zhao Jiamin recalled it carefully, but had no memory of the name.

"My teacher, Taishi Ling Sima Hui, is not Sima, but Si." Ju Jingyi paused, "So I think I don't have the face to go back to see him yet."

After all, until now, she has not found the real culprit.

With a wry smile, Zhao Jiamin was in a low mood, no wonder he looked familiar, it turned out that he looked like Tai Shiling.

When the two returned to the inn, Ada had been ordered around by Sinian'an, so tired that he didn't even have time to breathe, "My lord! Help me~"

Si Nian'an was still watching the excitement with his legs crossed, the jasper earrings were hidden in his hair, "Tsk tsk tsk, this bit of hardship is unbearable, how can you help us, Mr. Dazai?"

Ju Jingyi signaled Ada to go out, and waited for the door to close, "Little uncle, you taught that man how to kill, right?"

"Ah."

"Ah?" Zhao Jiamin was confused and then shocked.

"That killer, I have observed him, his right hand has more calluses than his left hand, and his wrist is also thicker on the right side. He is obviously right-handed, but judging from the wounds of several people who cut his throat, the murderer used his left hand sword." Ju Jingyi explained, "At that time, I felt that this technique was very familiar. After thinking about it, it should be the way of the little master. Qingyang Mountain martial arts use the right hand, and killing people use the left hand. When you taught him, you used the left hand, so he Also left-handed."

"Then why don't you suspect that it's me." Sinian said, "Maybe he's taking the blame for me."

Zhao Jiamin actually found the anticipation flickering in his eyes, and was speechless.

Does this person really want to be caught as a murderer?

Ju Jingyi sighed, "Young master uncle will make a fuss even if he appears on the stage, let alone if he really wants to kill people, he will never choose a few small officials, Ji Yuandao is the first choice."

"Talk about the business." Seeing Ju Jingyi's impatience, Si Nian'an said seriously, "That man went up to the mountain seven years ago to ask his brother to teach him how to kill people. You also know that your master is pedantic, so he wanted to drive him away on the spot. Who Knowing that the man is also stubborn, he knelt in the snow for three days and three nights. I thought it was fun, so I taught him a few tricks. But I feel that he is not like an ordinary enemy, but a deep hatred. Unfortunately, I can’t ask. Half a year ago Before going down the mountain, he gave me the glass cup and told me that the glass cup was made by some master in a small country in the Western Regions that was destroyed seven years ago. He also told me the approximate location of this small country. I told him to go to the capital to find the Minister of Dali Temple. Ju Jingyi. But when I think about it later, he is really stubborn like a donkey, he can't listen to anything, and probably won't go to you, and I was curious about what happened back then, so I just came here Fishing with glass cups. Unexpectedly, I actually caught two fat-headed fish." As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows at the two of them.

Ju Jingyi ignored his nonsense, "Did you find anything?"

"I found you."

Tsk, it's not serious again.

The person involved, Ju Jingyi, had long been used to this little uncle who was always out of tune, so she simply ignored her and lowered her head to meditate.

But Zhao Jiamin was not used to it, and got angry when he saw him like this, especially when he spoke in such an ambiguous tone and looked at Ju Jingyi with such tender eyes.

Sensing Zhao Jiamin's disgust, Si Nian'an didn't restrain himself, and acted more deliberately, with burning eyes, as if Ju Jingyi was his lover of the third generation.Zhao Jiamin glared at him viciously, threatening and luring him with his eyes, but unfortunately it didn't work and was ignored.

Unaware of it, Ju Jingyi suddenly said, "Little uncle, does senior sister know that you have gone down the mountain?"

Si Nian'an, who had previously unscrupulously provoked Zhao Jiamin, suddenly lost his momentum, and looked away in a panic, his whole body was like an eggplant beaten by frost, wilting.

Ju Jingyi raised her head, cautiously, "Didn't say?"

I didn't say anything at first glance!

Zhao Jiamin didn't give up an opportunity to attack Sinian, and immediately asked, "What? Do you have to get the consent of your senior sister to go down the mountain?"

"Did you forget? My senior sister is Wei Zheng."

Princess Anping, Wei Zheng.

This time, the frost-beaten eggplants became two.
