Warm fragrance cloud around

The breeze rustled the leaves above the head, and the shadows of the two people who were very close to each other appeared on the ground.

Master Cheng's sudden intimacy made Lin Junnuan's mind go blank for a moment, and he didn't even break away from the hand that was gently kissed by him.Fortunately, there are no other people on this road at this time, otherwise it would be a funny thing to be bumped into by someone, after all, they all look like men now.

Seeing her wide-eyed and dull face, Cheng Jiangyun let go of his hands with a chuckle, and Lin Junnuan quickly retracted his hands behind his back, glanced around as if he had nowhere to rest, and his tone was full of accusations.

"How can you do this!"

Cheng Jiangyun lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Sorry, I can't help it."

He stretched out his hand to pat the top of her hair, but was avoided before he touched it. Lin Junnuan narrowed his eyes and scanned him vigilantly from head to toe, hummed softly, turned his head and walked forward quickly, walking two Bu turned around and came back, glared at him and said in a vicious voice, "I'm going alone, don't follow me."

Looking at the back of her leaving angrily, Cheng Jiangyun pursed his lips and smiled bitterly, but there was no sadness on his face.He may be a little irritable today, but he doesn't regret it. Miss Cheng is very slow in emotional matters. Only by leaving her breath on her bit by bit like this, can she remember herself in her heart, without time Distracted to think about Ah Hua, Min, Cat and Dog.

Mr. Cheng has not realized that this subtle emotion is called jealousy.

Lin Junnuan almost fled away, quickly passed through two alleys, and then leaned against a big banyan tree to rest, panting.

Thinking of the scene just now, she shook her head vigorously a few times, brushing away the ripples in her heart, and wiped the hand kissed by Cheng Jiangyun twice with her sleeve.

Today's Cheng Jiangyun is definitely bewitched.Didn't the ancients all pay attention to not seeing evil, not listening to evil, not speaking evil, and not moving, without such a sudden attack.Although she is a modern soul in her bones, she has always turned a blind eye to the rules and regulations of men and women, but no matter what, she is still a minor under the age of 15!

Because of her young age (by the standards of her modern person), Miss Lin's gender awareness has always been very weak, and she never expected that someone would fall in love with her like this.At the moment when I was confessed, it was indeed like a soft feather scratched my heart gently, and there was a burst of tickling pleasure,

But it was only a momentary heartbeat.She is not a real 15-year-old innocent girl. She has lived to be 40 years old in two lifetimes, and her resistance to love is far more than expected. After all, she died at the hands of her lover in her previous life.

Until now, she has not been able to figure out the motive for the murder, maybe it was for money, maybe it was for power, or maybe it was just out of love and hatred.In the year that just passed through, Lin Junnuan, who was a baby, was full of anger and confusion, and almost spent all his energy thinking about why, until he witnessed the birth of his younger brother with his own eyes, and the bond with his family became deeper and deeper, gradually integrating into this era It was only when she started to give up looking for the answer, so what if she wanted to understand, it was impossible for her to resurrect from the dead and return to modern times.

What really made her let go of her obsession with her past life was the bloody scene many years ago.

At that time, Lin Junnuan had not yet arrived at the age of eight, and had already begun to get in touch with the affairs of the shop under the guidance of his grandfather. After the beginning of spring, he followed his grandfather to Yangzhou Prefecture to inspect the shop. Couple with their mother and son.

This family is also going to the capital, but they don't know what they have encountered. Their clothes and luggage are all in tatters, and they don't look like they have enough money to eat and stay. Lin Junnuan couldn't bear to see the elderly and children suffer, so he persuaded his grandfather to take out a car. The carriage was given to their family and they were invited to go with them.

The family gratefully accepted their kindness and offered to help with things along the way. Even the young children would be like little ghosts to help light fire and chop wood.That child is Ah Hua.

At that time, Ahua was still a skinny child, because Lin Junnuan was wearing boy's clothes, Ahua naturally took care of her as a younger brother, and the two quickly became close.When the carriage stops to rest or spend the night, Ahua often takes her to climb trees to dig out bird nests, go into the water to catch fish and shrimp, and set traps to tease adults together.

That was Lin Junnuan's first and only long trip in ancient times. With the troublemaker Ah Hua as his companion, Lin Junnuan also regained a bit of childlike innocence, and had a great time playing along with her.Once the road was delayed for some hours, and they failed to reach the post station before dark, so they decided to stop at the foot of a mountain for the night.There is a large pine forest next to it. Lin Junnuan became very playful and took A Hua to play hide-and-seek in the woods, hiding between each other, completely unaware of the approaching danger.

A group of robbers took a fancy to the jewelry they were carrying, and suddenly appeared out of nowhere to attack. The leader of the robbers took Lin Junnuan in the woods as a hostage.There are also a few skilled servants and guards in Chengyibo's house. When they resisted, they aroused the displeasure of the robber leader, and planned to attack her who was powerless.

The leader of the robber danced a soft sword with cold light, and aimed the sharp blade at her neck and cut it. At the critical moment, it was Ahua's mother who rushed to hug her and block the attack for her, but she herself was cut off. Crimson blood spattered all over her face from her neck.Ahua's father also followed, but he seemed to have been injured before. He was defeated when fighting with the robber leader, and finally died of his throat being cut.

The guards packed up the other robbers and rushed over. The leader of the robbers knew that he was defeated and fled. At this time, Ahua's parents had already fallen to the ground, completely cut off their lives. Only Lin Junnuan, whose face was covered in blood, was beaten by Ahua's mother is protecting her body.

That round of hide-and-seek was Ahuazang's turn. He was hiding in a very hidden place, so he didn't notice the tragedy that happened here. It wasn't until Old Chengyi sent someone to retrieve him from the woods that Ahua knew that his parents had died. When he passed away, he hugged his grandmother and wept bitterly.

After the attack, Lin Junnuan had a high fever for several days. After the fever subsided, he was still listless and lost a lot of weight. After returning to Beijing, he took a period of recuperation before he finally recovered.

She has always had a lingering thought in her mind. If she hadn't invited Ahua's family to go with her because of her so-called kindness, wouldn't Ahua's parents have been implicated and both died, leaving behind a widowed mother and young son Alone.

The scene of Ahua's mother blocking the sword for her also often appeared in front of her eyes, which made her always remember that this life was exchanged for other people's lives, and her sacrifice was not in vain only if she lived unrestrainedly. .

There are not only calculations in the world, but also kindness at the cost of life. She was taken away from her life, but her life was also saved.At this point, Lin Junnuan finally let go of his obsession with his past life.

However, not being attached to the previous life does not mean completely letting go. She has not completely let go of her guard and accepted someone's confidence.

Lin Junnuan reflected on the details of getting along with Cheng Jiangyun during these times. She really lost her sense of proportion and unintentionally brought the distance between the two of them too close. It is rare for modern men and women to have pure friendship, let alone In the ancient times when touching a small hand is considered a skin-to-skin relationship, Cheng Jiangyun is a hot-blooded young man in his early twenties, and it is very natural to have the illusion of love when she unconsciously approaches her.

Perhaps this is a warning from the heavens, and it may be that she was told to leave immediately after investigating this case.

Having made up her mind, Lin Junnuan squinted her eyes and leaned against the tree with a long sigh of relief.A little sunlight shines through the gaps in the branches and leaves, bright and dazzling, such a beautiful time, wouldn't it be a pity to indulge in trifles like love and love.

***

After parting from Lin Junnuan, Cheng Jiangyun went back to Dali Temple to explain some things, then returned to Jianyuan Hou Mansion, and went straight to the bedroom of Lord Hou.

Jian Yuanhou was still bedridden, Mrs. Hou and the second lady of the Hou Mansion, Cheng Wanyan, were waiting on the bedside. Seeing him suddenly returning to the house in broad daylight, all three of them looked like they had seen a ghost, Cheng Wanyan even pinched him in disbelief. He pinched the maid next to him a few times, until the little maid's eyes were full of tears, and he was sure that he was not dreaming.

"You, why are you back?" Cheng Wanyan muttered loudly.

Lord Hou did not reprimand her for yelling at her brother unreasonably, but instead frowned and looked at Cheng Jiangyun, as if he was also displeased with his arrival, "I told you to get out, what are you doing when you come back?"

Cheng Jiangyun said expressionlessly: "I have something to discuss with my father." His eyes swept over Mrs. Hou and Cheng Wanyan indifferently.

The two looked at Jian Yuanhou in unison, Lord Hou considered for a moment, nodded to let them leave the room, and dismissed all the attendants at the same time.

When there were only the two of them left in the room, Lord Hou snorted coldly, "What do you want to say?"

"I have two questions. I ask my father to choose one of the two and answer them."

"The first question, when my father was attacked this time, who was the real culprit who killed the assassin?"

Jian Yuanhou leaned on the soft couch with his arms folded, and said nothing with a solemn face.

"The second question, how much money did my father take with Min Chongshan, and how many things did he do to turn black and white?"

Jian Yuanhou's face turned from black to red, and he grabbed the teacup in his hand and threw it at him, "Nizi, what are you talking about!"

Cheng Jiangyun casually turned away from the teacup, "Father knows if he is a jerk or not. If father doesn't want me to get to the bottom of it, he just needs to answer the first question."

"So what if I don't answer?"

"This assassination seems to be a private matter of the Hou family, but it actually involves a lot. It even involves the ink corruption case a few years ago, as well as a notorious killer organization. As the Minister of Dali Temple, I have to ask the Holy Majesty for a thorough investigation. At that time, no matter what my father said or not, the truth will be revealed."

Another teacup flew over, and Jian Yuanhou was furious, "Nie Zi, you actually want to disregard the face of the entire Hou Mansion, Nie Zi!"

There was a mocking smile on the corner of Cheng Jiangyun's mouth, "It's not me who disregards the Houfu's face, but you, my good father!"

Jian Yuanhou sat up quickly from the soft couch, grabbed the low stool on the ground and was about to throw it at Cheng Jiangyun, but when he lifted it in the air, he let go exhausted, and the stool hit the ground heavily.

The movement in the room attracted the attention of Mrs. Hou who was guarding the door. She rushed in immediately, helped up the half-squatting Lord Hou with a distressed face, and said softly, "Why lose your temper if you are not healthy? Find the crime yourself!" Then he looked at Cheng Jiangyun with a little condemnation, "Your father has suffered a serious crime this time, so you don't have to say a few words!"

"Get out, get out of here!!" Master Hou regained his composure and roared angrily. This time, not only Cheng Jiangyun, but even Mrs. Hou was kicked out by her.

The two were pushed out of the room roughly, and when the door was closed, Mrs. Hou no longer pretended to be gentle and loving, she glanced at Cheng Jiangyun with a half-smile, and walked away with her maids and servants.

That night, Cheng Jiangyun had a rare sleep in the Hou's own yard, but he didn't sleep well.In the early hours of the morning, he was awakened by the whistle of the contact, and a guard in black, A Yi, appeared outside the window.

"Master, it succeeded, as expected."
