"Qingqing?" Xiao Beichen froze in place.After a while, he walked over to hold Ji Muqing's unhealed hand and asked, "When did you wake up?"

"Just now." Ji Muqing grinned, "I heard everything."

Xiao Beichen's heart sank slightly, "Is there any discomfort?"

Ji Muqing shook his head.These days, he vaguely remembered that he drank a lot of medicine, and now his mouth is still bitter.He licked his dry lips and wanted to lie down, but as soon as he moved slightly, he felt his back was sore.

He groaned, and asked aggrievedly: "Did your Highness seek justice for me?"

Xiao Beichen looked at him apologetically, "Not yet."

Ji Muqing's eyes were a little complicated.After a long time, he said solemnly: "This general has a kind heart. I have completely forgotten the matter after being in a coma for the past few days, so let's not pursue it. Let all the demons and ghosts be scattered."

These days, Ji Muqing thought clearly in his sleep, and what he just heard made him even more determined.

Now that he is holding on to things, he will let his own people waste their energy on getting in.The changes in the current situation in the past few days seem to be aimed at the Ji family everywhere, but in fact they are messing up the court and making all the officials suspicious of each other.

The situation where a large number of officials have been suspended for investigation is irreversible, but the Ji family must leave now.Otherwise, after an oolong, the Ji family, who was the victim before, will become the target of public criticism.

"Don't pursue it?" Xiao Beichen was not surprised.

Ji Muqing twitched his lips. In fact, he felt that he was not a saint.Those who are still stepping on their faces while watching the excitement will slowly eat the bitter fruit later, but now he really wants to let things go lightly and let the enemy punch the cotton.

Afterwards, he blinked and emphasized: "I won't pursue it for the time being, but one person must be investigated immediately."

Xiao Beichen paused and came to understand. "This hall is wrong." He said sincerely.

Ji Muqing smiled, leaned closer and pulled the collar of the person in front of him, "Your Highness has hurt me so much these past few days." Although he has been in a coma for the past few days, he still has consciousness in his body, and he should call out once Nor did it fall.However, the wound on his tongue was so severe that he could barely slam it out word by word.

In a daze, he remembered that he seemed to call "Achen".Recalling now, Ji Muqing didn't feel shy, but felt that the two of them had been close so far, and the title should have been changed long ago.

Xiao Beichen looked at the starry eyes on the opposite side covered with a layer of water, and played with others, "Why does it hurt?" He raised his hand to his lips and asked, "Here?"

Seeing Ji Muqing silently looking at the person from his fingertips, Xiao Beichen smiled again and slowly put his hands on his knees.Afterwards, his bony hands slowly groped along the inside of the leg, and he asked again, "Or here?"

Fingers all the way inward, Ji Muqing's body stiffened suddenly.At the last moment, his fingertips stopped and scratched the base of his thigh beside him.

"Xiao Beichen!" Ji Muqing blushed and fell backward twisting.Xiao Beichen raised his back with eyesight, and hugged him into his arms again.

"You really..." He tightened his arms, "It scared me."

The heat wave in midsummer scorches the ground scorching hot, and the trees in the courtyard are verdant, and there are spots of light in the remaining shade.

After dancing a song in a heavy costume, Lu Lanzhao went to the front hall after a simple wash.During the days when she came to the capital, she hardly ever went out, and the few times she went to buy clothes, and not long ago, she met Xia Xiyao in a tailor's shop.

At this moment, Song Zhengxiu had just sent off the guests and returned.She asked straightforwardly: "Sir, Miss Xia invited me to the poetry meeting."

Lu Lanzhao was grateful for the person in front of him who helped the mother and daughter when they were kicked out of the house.But over time, she also found that the current life of affluent food and clothing still has to pay a price after all.It's just that she didn't expect that after breaking away from the Lu family, she would still use her face to seduce others in the end.

Song Zhengxiu is not in a good mood these days.A few days ago, Ji Muqing recovered from his illness and returned home, but to everyone's surprise, he did not say that he would seek justice, and even ordered the family members who caused trouble in Shangji's mansion to be sent away intact.

All of a sudden, all the officials said that a serious illness washed away all the murderous nature in his body.Regarding this, Song Zhengxiu only said with a smile: "General Ji is capable of bending and stretching." But in this way, the previous planning was even more of a farce.

After thinking deeply again, he heard Lu Lanzhao's request. "Since when did you become friends with the daughter of Zhongshu Sheren?" Song Zhengxiu lowered his lips and looked at her.

Lu Lanzhao lost his morals in front of Xiao Beichen before, and he has long been the object of the noble ladies of the capital who can't talk.Now that she was secretly brought to the capital, no one knew where she lived.

"I met her outside a few days ago." Lu Lanzhao said truthfully, "She asked me to help her write a poem, and she will be against Yun Nishang in that day's poetry meeting."

"The number one talented woman in the capital?" Song Zhengxiu sat aside and made tea leisurely.Then he suddenly remembered, "I almost forgot that Lan Zhao was also a talented woman before. Want to compete with Miss Yun?"

"Yes, I hope the master will allow Lan Zhao to take mother along." Lu Lanzhao buried his head lower, and heard a slight sob, "I'm afraid that Lan Zhao won't have the chance to be with her in the future."

After a long time, Song Zhengxiu sneered and said: "Why are you panicking?" The two beards under his nose also curved a little, "It's just showing your face, you think you can really fly up the branches and become a phoenix with your beauty. "

The last half of the sentence was extremely cold.Lu Lanzhao curled up her fingers and stopped talking.

"Sir." At this time, a man in black clothes with half of his face covered walked in from the outside.He saluted: "Only the last two doses of medicine are left."

Seeing this, Song Zhengxiu pointed to Lu Lanzhao who was next to him with his chin, and said indifferently, "Finish your drink, and write your poems and songs after drinking."

Lu Lanzhao hesitated for a while before he agreed, and bowed heavily, "Mr. Xie."

……

After the people left, Song Zhengxiu asked someone to boil a pot of water.Seeing that the masked man didn't leave, he also said bluntly, "Why are you in such a hurry before the incident is over. And I heard that the person you are looking for has disabled legs and it is difficult for him to walk."

The masked man glanced at him, and said without any nonsense, "My lord can't wait for the master to plan slowly, and has already written a letter to Prince Ning's mansion. As for that person, don't worry about it, sir."

"You!" Song Zhengxiu stood up, frowning and asked, "Why do you want to change someone? Obviously King Ning can do it."

"My lord said that King Ning is not ruthless enough." The masked man replied unhurriedly, "And it is justified to leave this matter to the crown prince."

***

After being recruited this time, Ji Muqing reaped a lot of benefits.The ministers came to visit and condolence one after another with gifts, and the palace also gave a lot of things.But in order to show a benevolent image, he sincerely refused to return all valuables.But for those who come every few days, he is very willing to sweep the couch and welcome them.

"I won't come anymore." The sunlight outside the house was even more dazzling, and Ji Muqing still buried his head on the person and muttered, "Really, I have something to do later."

Xiao Beichen looked at him up and down, put down the government affairs in his hands, and said helplessly: "If you have something to do, you should let go of this hall by yourself."

"It's really possible to let go." Ji Muqing raised his head and smiled, and then got down from the person's lap.

Seeing that Xiao Beichen didn't take his eyes off him, he lightly kissed the person on the lips again, and said, "You are busy, if I come back late, you should go back first, anyway, we can see you tomorrow."

Seeing the contentment on his face, Xiao Beichen's eyes were also full of smiles, "Yeah."

After Ji Muqing walked out of the room in three steps and turned around, Duan Yan just returned with the news, "Master, the second young lady has already brought her back."

He nodded upon hearing this and said, "Take me to have a look."

Ji Muqing had been planning to snatch Lu Lanzhao from Song Zhengxiu two days ago, but in order to deceive others, he still used a gentler method.So, he specially invited Yun Nishang to hold a poetry meeting, and secretly sent people to follow Lu Lanzhao, and finally invited people out in the name of Xia Xiyao.

Song Zhengxiu hid people tightly, and always felt that outsiders had nowhere to know what Lu Lanzhao was good for, so Ji Muqing, who had memories of his previous life, was able to capture this robbery easily.

At this moment, seeing Lu Lanzhao's panicked eyes, he condescended to exert coercion, "Tell this general what you smell like and what effect it has on you, and this general will allow you to make decisions for the rest of your life."

Lu Lanzhao originally arrived at the teahouse in a carriage without incident, but was stopped when he entered the venue.Not long after, someone came into the building and took her in through the back door on the grounds that she could not show up.

Lu Lanzhao thought that he was here to write as a ghostwriter, and it was something that could not be seen in the first place, so he firmly believed in not going the right way, but he never thought that all this was a trap in the end.

Now she turned her head and saw that her mother was also being watched closely, already looking terrified, she was speechless for a while before she whispered to Ji Muqing, "Lan Zhao doesn't know."

Ji Muqing paused for a while, then smiled and raised his hand to signal, "Do it." The people behind him lifted Mother Lu up.

"I really don't know." Lu Lanzhao was startled, and immediately knelt down from the chair.I think she used to be a lady of everyone, and she can obviously have unlimited fame with her own talents.But then he was kicked out of the house, and now he is restrained and free. These things are more or less forced and helpless.

Seeing her almost collapsed state, Ji Muqing took the square handkerchief and handed it to her, "Think slowly, the general is not in a hurry."

After a long time, she remembered something and said slowly: "Lan Zhao only knows that Mr. planted a large piece of evening primrose behind the yard, and specially told people not to approach it at night."

"Yu Lai Xiang?" Ji Muqing frowned.

"I don't understand." Ji Muxi, who had been idling by the side, suddenly said, "This flower will emit a smell at night, which makes people have a headache and breath. Elders suffering from vertigo can't smell it for a long time."

Ji Muqing suddenly realized that he had heard that some flower scents could cause chronic poisoning.After a while, he asked again seriously: "Have you ever smelled anything?"

Lu Lanzhao lowered his head and said timidly, "Shu Lanzhao really doesn't understand the theory of fragrance."

Afterwards, seeing that she didn't seem to be hiding anything, Ji Muqing didn't press her any further.After he asked someone to settle the mother and daughter, he waved his sleeves away indifferently.

"Cousin, where are you going to hide them?" Suddenly a rare cool breeze blew, and Ji Muxi trotted and asked.

Ji Muqing couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry, "Xunhualou."

"what?"

Seeing her expression of disapproval, Ji Muqing calmly assured her: "Don't worry, Mr. You is a man, but he doesn't like this, and he doesn't force him into prostitution." Ji Muqing paused, folded his hands on his chest, "Does he want to She is a talented girl who helps the girl under her hand write lyrics, and if Miss Lu wants to leave later, she is fine."

Seeing that people were still skeptical, Ji Muqing sighed, "Forget it, I'll go by myself." Then he was about to step away, but Ji Muxi suddenly asked: "Didn't my cousin say he was going to kill her?"

Ji Muqing froze on the spot, touched his chin after a while, "This general is wise and powerful, it's not difficult for an obedient girl."

The situation was special that night, and he was also worried that he would not have time to deal with it himself, so he said such cruel words.But even though he had ordered people to be killed, based on what Ji Muxi knew, Lu Lanzhao would not be able to think of Lu Lanzhao in a short period of time with the word "Lu", and according to her temperament, in the end she would rather waste time and effort than save people's lives.

When sorting out the cause and effect again, Ji Muqing had already walked out of the house.

On the street in front of the gate of Ji Mansion, there are many common people enjoying the shade under the eaves.He watched a few children still playing and chasing without knowing the heat, and he always felt that he forgot to order something.

On the other side, Ji Muxi, who had finished his work, was walking along the lotus pond in the mansion to his courtyard, when he happened to see Xiao Beichen stopping in the middle of the road.She stepped forward and saluted: "His Royal Highness."

Xiao Beichen nodded in return, and then calmly pointed to Rong Yunfei who was holding a book in the gazebo by the pond and asked, "Miss Ji, who is the child who is studying?"
