The princess's little white-faced concubine
Chapter 18
As soon as summer comes, the rainfall in the south of the Yangtze River is especially heavy, with light rain every three days.The dungeon of the county government office was cold and damp, and some rainwater would sweep in from time to time, and by coincidence, it all fell on the haystacks that Jiang Zhichu used to keep warm.
Jiang Zhichu huddled in a corner, his head was groggy, and he felt headaches coming one after another. Qing Ning was called away an hour ago, and a sense of helplessness came to his heart.
"Jiang Zhichu!" A gentle and hasty voice echoed in his ears, and then he fell into Xiangruan's embrace, with a faint orchid fragrance lingering in his nose.
Wei Zhaojin patted Jiang Zhichu's hot cheek gently but couldn't wake her up.
She just arrived in Yong'an County at noon today. When she got off the carriage, she only saw Wei Xian, Changsun Heng and others, but Jiang Zhichu was nowhere to be seen. Fortunately, Wei Xian told her in time, otherwise everyone would be stupid now.
"Who allowed you to imprison court officials privately!" She seemed to be condescending and looked down at the crowd, not annoyed.
"You are the eldest princess!" Qing Ning entered the door suddenly, holding the medicine box in his hand, showing no trace of fear towards Wei Zhaojin.
"Bold!" Yi Qiu shouted.
It's just that Wei Zhaojin didn't care, and waved his hand to signal Yiqiu to step aside, and Yiqiu had no choice but to do so.
Qing Ning stared at the pair of smart eyes, and glanced at Han Shijun with a little disgust, "It's him! He arrested people indiscriminately and imprisoned them, and threatened Master Wei to send his friends to prison in the name of His Majesty."
Wei Zhaojin looked back and forth at these people, and then fell on Wei Xian: "Xian'er?"
Wei Xian's heart was pounding, he felt that his aunt was a little angry, but he didn't know why she was angry, and in the end he only blamed himself: "Aunt, it's Xian'er's fault, and her ineffectiveness made the murderer go unpunished and killed her." So many innocent people."
"This matter has already alarmed His Majesty. I am limited to arresting the murderer within ten days to restore the peace of Yong'an County. You all know the methods of this palace, but you must be careful..."
Wei Zhaojin's half smile was not a smile, and his eyes fell on Han Shijun. His eyes seemed to be murderous. Han Shijun only looked up and then lowered his head tremblingly.
Perhaps it was because of Wei Zhaojin's fragrant and soft embrace that Jiang Zhichu slept very deeply without any nightmares, and fell asleep until the next day.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and saw the world change from blurry to clear, "Well, why am I here?"
"Otherwise? Still want to talk to mice in prison?" Qing Ning sat at the table and stirred the soup in the bowl with a spoon. Seeing that it was not so hot, he picked it up and handed it to her.
Jiang Zhichu asked about the bitter taste of the medicine from a long distance, and found that the delicate facial features were twisted together, as if he was rejecting her with his face.
"How old are you and still afraid of taking medicine!" Qing Ning looked at her with contempt.
Jiang Zhichu complained in his heart. In the past six years since time travel, he has rarely been sick, and he seldom takes medicine. If this is some kind of capsule, it’s okay to say, this is a big bowl. "Oh, I don’t drink it."
"you!"
Just as Qing Ning was about to pour her hands on her, the door of Jiang Zhichu's room was pushed open. It was Yi Qiu who pushed the door. Seeing the two of them laughing and fighting, she immediately turned black. Then it was Wei Zhaojin who came in. She was dressed in plain blue clothes. The skirt is not as dignified as in Kyoto, but it also adds a touch of elegance. There are delicate earrings hanging on Ruyu's earlobe. The sun slanted into the room through the door and window and fell on her white jade neck. Jiang Zhichu was stunned for a while. Subconsciously, he distanced himself from Qing Ning.
Before Wei Zhaojin said anything, Yiqiu took the medicine bowl from Qingning's hand on his own initiative, and said angrily: "You go out first, you have nothing to do here."
Qing Ning is not a good-tempered master, she became anxious when Yi Qiu ordered her like this, and stretched her neck as if comparing her height with her, but she was actually short.
"Why!"
Qing Ning wanted to say something but was dragged back by Jiang Zhichu. She grabbed the corner of her clothes and looked up at her, as if she was suffering from a fever, looking pitiful, "Go out first, I have something to say to you." Your Highness will speak."
"Forget it." Qing Ning put the medicine bowl on the table and went out with the medicine box in his arms. Before leaving, he did not forget to have a "friendly" eye contact with Yi Qiu.
"Huh? The little girl Pianzi dares to show off with me here! Look at my aunt, I don't..."
Yiqiu "grabbed her teeth and danced" towards the direction where Qing Ning was leaving, and made a gesture of gouging someone's eyeballs, and then went to pick up the medicine bowl.
Seeing this familiar movement again, Jiang Zhichu couldn't help but tremble.
Wei Zhaojin sighed helplessly: "You go out too."
"Ah?" Yi Qiu blinked her big eyes unmoved.
"I said you should go out first."
"Oh."
Yiqiu was a little disappointed, her mouth was pouted so high that it was sky high.
Wei Zhaojin said lightly: "Wait a minute."
"Do you need me? Your Highness." Yi Qiu seemed to be waiting for Wei Zhaojin to keep her, excited like a little rabbit.
Wei Zhaojin twitched the corners of his mouth and raised his jaw slightly, "Keep the medicine."
The air fell into silence, and when Yiqiu left, she carried an emotion similar to "resentment" like Qingning.
"Drink the medicine." She said indifferently, as if ordering.
Jiang Zhichu frowned, sometimes looked at Wei Zhaojin's face covered with frost, and sometimes looked at the steaming and bitter soup.
Is Wei Zhaojin scary?Or is this soup terrible?After Jiang Zhichu thought for a moment, he trembled and finally got the medicine.
"Ouch! It's hot!" Jiang Zhichu suddenly withdrew his hand when he touched the bowl, and rubbed his earlobe with his fingers, as if he was really burned.
Wei Zhaojin frowned quietly watching this man perform.
"Your Highness, it's really hot, my skin is tender..."
"Oh?" Wei Zhaojin raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "Master Jiang said that I have rough skin and thick flesh?"
"Don't dare!"
How dare she?If you contradict Wei Zhaojin while drunk, you will be "forced into prostitution". If you contradict her when you are sober, then...my life will be over!
She snatched the medicine bowl from Wei Zhaojin's hand, put it in her own hand but refused to drink it for a long time.
Wei Zhaojin just sat on the corner of the bed like this, and Fengyan looked at her carefully: "Need I to feed you? Drinking medicine is like a child, not manly."
Jiang Zhichu complained in his heart!I am not a man!Moreover, Jiang Zhichu seldom took medicine since he was a child. In the 21st century, most of them took capsules and tablets, and he didn't feel much bored with a sip of water.
Gritting her teeth and stomping her feet, Jiang Zhichu pinched her nose and poured some cold soup down her throat, and then the pain went through her throat and mouth. She wanted to vomit several times but held back. Her high school head teacher is even more scary!
It is said that there are only two kinds of people in the world that are the scariest, the elderly high school class teacher and... Wei Zhaojin.
Seeing Jiang Zhichu's bitter tears, Wei Zhaojin finally had a smile on the corner of his mouth, and then his eyes fell on the scabbed wound on Jiang Zhichu's cheek, as if he was caught by something.
It must be because of this face that she paralyzed herself.
"Do you regret it? If you had listened to Bengong's advice, you would definitely not have been hurt, and..."
It will not give Chu Ziqi the chance to ask the emperor to marry him.
"No regrets." Jiang Zhichu replied with a frown.
"Stupid." Wei Zhaojin murmured.
Just as stubborn as he is.
"Princess, why did you come here suddenly, but you have brought enough people, I have seen this murderer with my own eyes..."
As soon as Jiang Zhichu recalled that memory, his head hurt involuntarily. She was worried that Wei Zhaojin would be in danger and didn't want to involve her.
"You have been injured twice in only half a month, why are you still worried about me?"
Jiang Zhichu noticed that her gaze fell on his face, and he raised his hand to cover it with embarrassment, and said firmly, "I can get hurt, but you absolutely can't, princess."
Her eyes were as clean as water and as hot as fire.
Wei Zhaojin was stunned and then seemed relieved: "Idiot, protect yourself."
The eyes she looked at her were all so clean, without any personal thoughts.In this intriguing world, everyone has their own private thoughts. She hasn't seen such eyes for a long time. She opened the door of her heart and made the scarred her go away. If time can stay for a short time Then this will be her short-lived peace of mind.
If that person is still there...will he be angry?Angry at myself for this momentary infidelity.
Wei Zhaojin restrained her smile, "Tell me what you know, and don't worry about this matter anymore."
She couldn't say the phrase "heal well".
Jiang Zhichu hesitated. She didn't want to tell Wei Zhaojin her suspicion. First, it was just her suspicion. Everything was inconclusive and the murderer hadn't been caught yet. Second, she was worried that the massacre of the Zhang and Mu families would happen again. , even though she knew that Wei Zhaojin was not that simple person.
Wei Zhaojin seemed to be able to see through her heart, and said with a gentle smile, "If you don't tell me, more people will be involved. If my guess is correct, I think the corpse in Yizhuang will not be able to lie down..."
Jiang Zhichu clenched his fists tightly, and the circles of his eyes gradually turned red.
Wei Zhaojin stood up and continued: "Do you think I can't find out what you have now? Since I'm here, I want to take the initiative to get involved. You think you can keep everyone safe by not telling anyone, but you You overestimated yourself...Jiang Zhichu, have you found the murderer yet?"
Jiang Zhichu wanted to refute, but found that he was choked up, like a lump in his throat.
"Jiang Zhichu, let go, and leave everything to Bengong."
It is consolation, comfort that is not easy to perceive.
It was a kind of helpless pain, which only she knew at this moment.Obviously she wanted to catch the murderer, she had already grasped the clues, and finally realized that she was nothing at all. Some things only need Wei Zhaojin to open her mouth, and tens of thousands of capable people will solve them for her, but she might not be able to catch her even if she risked her life. Stop the murderer.
"Okay, I'll tell you."
-
"After that, you promise to let my mother go." He seemed to have made up his mind.
"Naturally." The man on the opposite side came leisurely, as if this matter had never had anything to do with him.
The man seemed to have thought of something, and he added: "Wei Zhaojin is very shrewd, and he acts like you don't want to be discovered. You should know what the man above will do if things are revealed."
"Who the hell is he?"
"Do your own thing."
The man grinned and said, "Aren't they used to suspicion? Hahahaha! Guess! Guess! Send your own people to hell!"
The man laughed like crazy, he frowned knowing that this person was crazy, and he couldn't afford to offend him.
After the rain, the sky was clear and the air was relatively fresh. The golden sun shone on the gloomy land, and also illuminated Han Shijun's gloomy face.
"Mom, take care."
Jiang Zhichu huddled in a corner, his head was groggy, and he felt headaches coming one after another. Qing Ning was called away an hour ago, and a sense of helplessness came to his heart.
"Jiang Zhichu!" A gentle and hasty voice echoed in his ears, and then he fell into Xiangruan's embrace, with a faint orchid fragrance lingering in his nose.
Wei Zhaojin patted Jiang Zhichu's hot cheek gently but couldn't wake her up.
She just arrived in Yong'an County at noon today. When she got off the carriage, she only saw Wei Xian, Changsun Heng and others, but Jiang Zhichu was nowhere to be seen. Fortunately, Wei Xian told her in time, otherwise everyone would be stupid now.
