I was a princess in ancient times

"Huh?" Ji Xinxue didn't understand why Yu Heng said such words.

He heard the voices coming from the study room getting noisier, afraid that Princess Xuanwei would suddenly open the window and find him through Yu Heng who was standing outside the rockery, grabbed Yu Heng's arm and said, "I'll talk to you later, go!"

After speaking, Ji Xinxue suddenly thought that as long as Princess Xuanwei thought of opening the window, she would suspect that Yu Heng was also in the yard when she saw Yu Heng's figure, and it might be easier to find his hiding place.

"Wait!" Ji Xinxue grabbed Yu Heng's tight forearm with quick eyes and hands, and said to Yu Heng who had turned around, "You come in, let's squeeze."

Yu Heng squinted his sharp phoenix eyes, raised his sword to warn Princess Xuanwei not to pester Ji Xinxue any more, and huddled with Ji Xinxue in the rockery for a while, but finally turned around when he heard Ji Xinxue's urging in a low voice.

The space in the rockery is not too large, there is room to accommodate only Ji Xinxue, and it is extremely crowded to accommodate Yu Heng who is half a circle older than Ji Xinxue.

Even though Ji Xinxue relied on her soft body and tried her best to move to the corner of the rockery, it was still difficult to give up enough space for Yu Heng.

At the same time, Princess Xuanwei had already walked around the entire study, but still did not see Ji Xinxue, and the anger in her eyes became more and more intense.

Princess Anwu is avoiding her!

Princess Xuanwei felt that Princess Anwu was a treasure deliberately deceived by her.

Earlier, when she came to see Princess Anwu, she was blocked by the female officer next to Princess Anwu. Because of her poor hearing, she accidentally heard that Princess Anwu and the king of Xianglin County were afraid that they would regret it in the future if they messed around when they were young, so they kindly reminded Princess Anwu to be careful. , and proposed to send Princess Anwu some 'useful' cheats.

If you want to hurry up and talk about what she is interested in, Princess Anwu also promised that she will reveal her experience after practice, so she will not promise to give the collection to Princess Anwu.

Those were the good things she had saved after reading countless cheat books for nearly ten years, and they were all cheated away!

Even if Princess Anwu is unwilling to fulfill the promise due to various reasons, as long as she explains the difficulties to her in a nice manner instead of deliberately avoiding her, Princess Xuanwei will not be as angry as she is now.

Princess Xuanwei has only been cheated twice since she was a child.

The first time was when her natal family promised to treat her every step of the way after her mother died, making her cousins ​​coax her, so she agreed to move from Mofu to her natal family.

Her life in her natal family was completely opposite to the promise she had received at the beginning. Even if she was obedient to her natal family and coaxed her cousins, she would be picked out by countless faults, and even when she proposed to return to Mo's house, she was rejected by her natal family. House arrest.

The second time is Princess Anwu.

Princess Xuanwei was annoyed and aggrieved but did not lose her mind.

The natal family who lied to her back then has completely left Chang'an, and now I don't know where to live in a corner.

My parents were willing to leave Chang'an voluntarily because they were afraid that Aye would get angry.

Princess Anwu is the beloved daughter of Emperor Changping, so she is not afraid of her and Aye at all, and she doesn't expect to do anything to Princess Anwu, she just wants to get back her treasures.

Even if her collection is burned, she won't give it to a liar who can't hand it over!

Qingyun and Bijuan frantically followed Princess Xuanwei, exchanged glances and explained repeatedly, "Princess didn't hide from Princess Xuan on purpose, but she was really busy with business, so she often staggered with Princess Xuanwei."

"You also know that the princess was seriously ill a few days ago, and His Majesty, who is far away in Chang'an, sent two imperial physicians to treat the princess. If possible, the princess would not be so busy."

"Please, the princess, take pity on the princess. When the princess recovers, she will definitely make amends to the princess."

Princess Xuanwei sneered again and again, if she hadn't believed the lies of the sisters earlier, she wouldn't have realized that Princess Anwu was a liar until now.

She turned a deaf ear to the words of Qingyun and Bijuan, and patrolled the study with sharp eyes. Today, she came here to pay her respects because she found out that Princess Anwu was in the study.

Looking at the handkerchief that fell under the window, Princess Xuanwei's eyes flashed brightly, and he strode over to pick up the handkerchief. The material is exquisite, the workmanship is fine, and there is a strange pattern embroidered with silver thread in the lower left corner. Princess Anwu's handkerchief.

Qingyun held the pastry in one hand, while stroking the other hand on his chest, which was beating like a drum, and said pretending to be puzzled, "Princess was still looking for a handkerchief in the morning, but I didn't expect it to be dropped here."

Princess Xuanwei's gaze stayed at the window for a while longer, allowing Qingyun to take the handkerchief from her hand, then turned around and walked out the door surrounded by two female officials.

When she reached the door, Princess Xuanwei suddenly turned around, strode back to the window with gray stains on the window frame, and jumped out of the window amidst the exclamations of Bijuan and Qingyun.

Ji Xinxue in the rockery was caught off guard when Qingyun yelled, "Princess Xuanwei, what did you do by jumping out of the window!" ', his mind was full of how to make Yu Heng hide in the rockery perfectly, he changed from sitting to standing, bent his back so that his back was close to the inner wall above the rockery, and pulled Yu Heng hard, "Quick, there is a place!"

Yu Heng remained motionless, looking at Ji Xinxue with deep eyes, "What did you promise her?"

He had already guessed through Ji Xinxue's guilty conscience when he was hiding from Princess Xuanwei, and guessed that Ji Xinxue was not only avoiding Princess Xuanwei because of the fact that he burned the picture album.

"No!" Ji Xinxue subconsciously denied, looking at Yu Heng with a hint of warning, like a cat whose tail was stepped on by surprise.

Yu Heng nodded calmly, retreating instead of advancing, and dragged Ji Xinxue out of the rockery, "You don't have to avoid her, I will pay her ten or a hundred times the picture album until she is satisfied."

Even if Princess Xuanwei insisted on the exact same album, he could still find the person who made the album to remake it.

When Ji Xinxue pulled Yu Heng, Yu Heng didn't move at all. When it was Yu Heng's turn to pull Ji Xinxue, Ji Xinxue immediately staggered half a step forward.

"Don't!" Ji Xinxue turned pale with shock, and used up all her energy to eat.

Is he afraid that Princess Xuanwei will ask him for a picture album?

He was afraid that Princess Xuanwei would ask him how he felt after the experience!

As long as Ji Xinxue thinks about Princess Xuanwei, Ji Xinxue's mind is filled with the content of the erroneous chats between him and Princess Xuanwei, and she is so embarrassed that she can't wait to find a place to hide it.

In the tug-of-war with Yu Heng, Ji Xinxue seemed to be able to hear the sound of Princess Xuanwei's footsteps approaching the rockery, and he immediately gave up in an indescribable sense of crisis, "I said, when she leaves, I will say, you come on in!"

Yu Heng raised his eyes to see the skirt exposed behind the ancient wood, rushed into the rockery, raised his hand around Ji Xinxue's waist and pressed down, and pushed up the cover hidden in the rockery with the other hand.

Caught off guard, Ji Xinxue, who was sitting on Yu Heng's lap, took a deep breath. He didn't feel any discomfort when he kept his hunched posture to make room for Yu Heng. Now that he suddenly changed his posture, his old waist almost collapsed.

"What's the matter?" Yu Heng immediately lowered his head to see Ji Xinxue's strangeness, but after the gaps in the rockery were covered, there was no light inside, and eyes that hadn't adapted to the darkness could only see the pain in Ji Xinxue's eyes.

Ji Xinxue lowered her head angrily and lightly bumped Yu Heng's chin, "Back hurts."

If it wasn't for Yu Heng's refusal to leave immediately or come in immediately to waste a lot of time, how could he suffer so much pain on his back?

"Yeah." Yu Heng responded, running his palm down Ji Xinxue's back, "I'll rub it for you."

Princess Xuanwei outside the rockery looked at the rockery with obscure eyes. Since she was a child, she has excellent hearing and can hear voices that others cannot hear at the same distance.

Long before bypassing the obstructing ancient trees, Princess Xuanwei heard the movement at the rockery and knew that there were people in the rockery.The words she heard were 'you come in'.

At that time, the excitement of finally being able to seek justice with Princess Anwu lingered in Princess Xuanwei's heart, so she didn't feel anything wrong at all. Taking advantage of Princess Anwu's female officer's slowness in turning over the window, she strode towards the rockery.

Then she heard strange cries of pain from the rockery.

Back pain?

Is it the reason she thought of, the back pain caused?

Princess Xuanwei looked at the size of the rockery with scrutiny.

Both of them talked just now, so she was sure that the people in the rockery were Princess Anwu and Prince Xianglin.

With the size of this rockery, it is already inconceivable that two people can be accommodated. It would be strange if the waist does not hurt.

Princess Xuanwei took a few steps back silently, and didn't stop until the ancient tree was attached to his back. His expression gradually became complicated, and he felt overwhelmed after a long absence.

If she insists on asking Princess Anwu to get back the cheats now, will it lead to an irreversible ending, such as letting Princess An's mansion of the fifth generation be passed down alone.

"Princess?" Qing Yun, who had more agile legs and feet, finally caught up. Even seeing that Princess Xuanwei hadn't found Ji Xinxue hiding in the rockery, she couldn't feel relieved, her eyes were full of nervousness.

Princess Xuanwei subconsciously covered Qingyun's mouth, and whispered next to Qingyun's ear, "Shut up!"

Stupid girl, be careful of getting into trouble.

Forget it, if Princess Anwu avoids her because she spends her spare time on this matter, she will give Princess Anwu a few more days.

Princess Xuanwei gave Qingyun a 'shut up' wink.

Qingyun endured the panic and nodded repeatedly, secretly thinking about whether Princess Xuanwei should avoid Ji Xinxue from the rockery, or should she protect the princess.

Unexpectedly, Princess Xuanwei let go of her hand, and instead of walking towards the rockery, she walked towards the gate of Yuhe Courtyard, and the gloomy anger on her body gradually eased.

Before Qingyun could completely let go of the breath hanging in his throat, Princess Xuanwei suddenly turned around and waved at Qingyun. He made a random excuse and brought Qingyun and Bijuan who came around the study back to his residence. Do good every day.

Poor Ji Xinxue only heard the endless "princess master" and never waited for Qingyun's next words. She couldn't guess that Princess Xuanwei was just wandering in the yard by the way, or she was sure that he was in the yard and was Dig three feet to find him.

After a period of adaptation, Ji Xinxue could already see Yu Heng's face clearly, and he mouthed to Yu Heng.

'have they gone? '

Yu Heng listened for a moment, then shook his head at Ji Xinxue.

'do not know. '

The two looked at each other, only waiting patiently.

After a long time, Yu Heng suddenly felt heavy on his shoulders. He looked down and saw Ji Xinxue was lying on his shoulders, struggling against sleepiness.

Yu Heng's heart softened all of a sudden, he raised his hand to caress Ji Xinxue's head, and said in a low voice, "Sleep, I'm here."

Although the situation these days is not as tense as it was when Shangzhou was cleared, the burden on Ji Xinxue's shoulders has not been relieved by half.

Ji Xinxue not only cared about Chang'an, Ma Yu, but also the enamel kiln. She had been waking up early and going to bed late for many days, avoiding Princess Xuanwei.

At this time, in the dark and confined space, it is no longer unbearable to doze off while scrambling to get out.

Hearing Yu Heng's words, the last hesitation in Ji Xinxue's heart dissipated, and she fell asleep before she even had time to say anything.

Sensing that Ji Xinxue's breathing became even and regular, Yu Heng silently increased the strength of her arms around Ji Xinxue, wanting to bury her head in Ji Xinxue's neck and get closer to Ji Xinxue, but changed her mind at the last moment.

He had just returned from the place where the military guards of the Daying Camp in the suburbs of Beijing were stationed, and his hair was not completely dry because he personally went into the water to compete with the guards of the Daying Camp in the suburbs of Beijing, which might disturb Ji Xinxue's lucid dreams.

Yu Heng stared blankly at the spots of light leaking on Ji Xin's snow suit along the cracks in the rockery, and suddenly had the idea of ​​wishing that time would stop at this moment forever.

In this way, he can hold Ji Xinxue in his arms forever.You don't have to worry about someone else appearing next to Ji Xinxue one day, replacing him as Ji Xinxue's closest person.

This thought only lingered in Yu Heng's mind for a moment before being completely suppressed in his heart. Yu Heng looked down at Ji Xinxue's peaceful sleeping face.

How could he hope that Ah Xue would fall into a deep sleep forever?

They should be the same as before, at this time, defenseless against each other, the closest

Many complicated emotions emerged in Yu Heng's heart.

Axue has never been enlightened in matters of love, and his attitude towards him before and after explaining his gender has not changed at all, so that he has never had the courage to ask Axue what he thinks of their marriage contract.

Even if he didn't take the initiative to ask, he still had to face reality.

Ah Xue treats him as a close friend rather than a sweetheart, otherwise she would not calmly propose to watch erotic pictures together.

Thinking of everything that happened that day, a faint smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Yu Heng's mouth, and he raised his hand to hook the broken hair on Ji Xinxue's face behind his ears, "A Xue must keep his word, or I will be sad."

As long as he doesn't discuss relatives, take concubines, or find a roommate, Ah Xue will not try to find a woman to do things in the picture book.

No matter what is the closest thing, he will be the closest person to Ah Xue.

Ji Xinxue was thinking about Princess Xuanwei outside the rockery, and immediately struggled to open her sleepy eyes when she heard Yu Heng's voice, "Huh? What's wrong."

Yu Heng patted Ji Xinxue on the back in fear, and said nonchalantly, "There has been no movement outside for a long time, Xuanwei has already left in all likelihood, let's go out first."

Pushing away the cover from the gap in the rockery, Ji Xinxue quietly poked her head out to look around like a thief, for fear that she would suddenly see the face of Princess Xuanwei, so she just used this to completely scare away the drowsiness.

Yu Heng saw Ji Xinxue's carefulness in his eyes, and suddenly felt unhappy in his heart.

How can Xuanwei and He De affect Axue's mind so much?

He spoke coldly, reminding Ji Xinxue to fulfill his promise, "What did you promise Xuanwei?"

When Ji Xinxue heard this, the relief on his face immediately turned into pain, and he turned his head to look sadly at Yu Heng who was still in the rockery.

It was hard for him to temporarily forget about it.

"I'll talk about it when we have dinner. I have other things to discuss with you." Ji Xinxue stretched out her hand towards the rockery.

Yu Heng hummed dissatisfiedly, and raised his hand to grab Ji Xinxue's arm.

Not only did Ji Xinxue fail to pull Yu Heng out of the rockery, but she staggered on her feet, and was almost dragged back by Yu Heng. With her other hand on the rockery, she was able to stabilize her figure.

He looked at Yu Heng in disbelief, thinking that Yu Heng was throwing a tantrum with him.

Yu Heng looked at Ji Xinxue innocently, "Legs are numb."

Ji Xinxue's gaze moved down Yu Heng's innocent face, and landed on Yu Heng's long legs that were still in the original posture, guilt flashed in her eyes.

If he hadn't been pressing on Yu Heng's leg for so long, Yu Heng's leg wouldn't be numb.

"I'll give you a hammer?" Ji Xinxue said while squeezing back to the gap in the rockery, "It may hurt a little, bear with it."

Yu Heng looked down at the slender white palms covering his black-robed thighs, kneading and moving them, and suddenly his face changed drastically, and his voice was no longer as calm as before, "Okay, step back and let me go out."

Ji Xinxue thought that Yu Heng's legs were numb because of him, and said generously, "It's okay, I'll press it again"

Before he finished speaking, Yu Heng had already changed from sitting to squatting neatly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I want to show respect!"

Ji Xinxue moved away from the gap in the rockery, and before he could get up, Yu Heng in the rockery had already passed him, and ran towards the Anheyuan without looking back.

"Feng Lang?" Ji Xinxue found nothing when she turned around and raised her hand, and reminded, dumbfounded, "There is a Gong room in Yuhe courtyard."

Unexpectedly, after hearing his words, instead of changing direction, Yu Heng ran faster, and disappeared around the corner in the blink of an eye.

Ji Xinxue shook her head and murmured, "Could it be that your stomach is ruined by eating?"

Yu Heng didn't return to the Anheyuan until dinner time, which made Ji Xinxue more certain about this guess.Considering Yu Heng's shyness when he acted rashly, Ji Xinxue finally gave up the idea of ​​visiting Yu Heng in person, and asked Qingyun to go to Qingzhu to inquire about Yu Heng's situation.

Hearing that Yu Heng was in good condition and had already fallen asleep, Ji Xinxue put down the paperwork in peace of mind, yawned and went to bed.

When Qingyun tucked Ji Xinxue under the blanket, she whispered, "I see that Qingzhu's face is not very good-looking, it can be seen that he is traveling around with the king of the county, and he is a little bit unbearable. He promised that Qingzhu will give him and Zizhu some health-care pills." .”

"Yeah." Ji Xinxue closed her eyes, "Everyone will be given two bottles of health-care pills, and some old ginseng slices for them to chew when they are tired. He and Zizhu are by Fenglang's side like this." Over the years, the importance is like that of you and Bijuan to me."

After hearing Ji Xinxue's words, Qingyun secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't think too much when she promised to give Qingzhu pills, but when she returned to Yuhe courtyard, she was severely reprimanded by her sister.

The pills were originally prepared by the imperial physician for the princess to refresh her mind. Because the princess didn't like to eat them, she rewarded them to the people around her.The elder sister said that as the princess's personal female official, it is understandable for her to give the princess's reward to the palace servants of Yuheyuan, and she should not extend her hand to the county king.

Fortunately, the princess didn't blame her for being troublesome.

Waking up the next day, Ji Xinxue heard from Qingyun that Yu Heng had gone to the camp of the military guards in the suburbs of Beijing to supervise the guards of the camp in the suburbs of Beijing to learn to swim.

It was near dusk when Yu Heng returned to the Princess Mansion covered in moisture, and bumped into Ji Xinxue who just came back from the enamel kiln.

Yu Heng's face changed drastically, and he used a set of sword skills on the spot to prove that he was fine before entering the gate of Anheyuan.

Because Ji Xinxue was still in a fit of anger, Yu Heng could only ask Ji Xinxue 'what did she agree to Princess Xuanwei? "Postponed again, served Ji Xinxue diligently, and then worked tirelessly to deal with the documents sent back by Ma Yu's people. Ji Xinxue couldn't bear to sullen her face because of her good attitude of admitting mistakes.

Noticing that Ji Xinxue's face had softened, Yu Heng made persistent efforts and promised that he would not go to the camp in the outskirts of Beijing tomorrow, fundamentally eliminating the possibility of going into the water, and finally got Ji Xinxue's nod of approval.

The rest of the states in Shannan East Road have passed the most chaotic stage, and the documents sent by Ma Yu have also decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In only half an hour, Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng processed all the paperwork.

Ji Xinxue stretched her waist, turned her head to look at the sky that had not yet completely darkened, "I don't have much time today, so I can take a rest early."

Before the words finished, Bijuan's voice suddenly came from outside the study, "Princess, Li Langjun and Zhang Langjun are asking to see you."

The smile on Ji Xinxue's face froze instantly.

At this time, Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi must be busy.

Yu Heng couldn't help but raised his hand to pinch Ji Xinxue's face, and got up immediately before Ji Xinxue could react, "I'll let them come back tomorrow."

Ji Xinxue raised her hand and grabbed Yu Heng's arm, her tone was particularly vicissitudes, "Forget it, there is still tomorrow."

Staying up all night for several days in a row was a disaster, and he didn't want to try it a second time.

When Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi first entered the door, their expressions were quite calm. When the palace people brought new tea and pastries and left one by one, the calmness on their faces immediately turned into a blankness after shock.

Ji Xinxue lay lazily on the rocking chair, taking a panoramic view of the changes in Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi's expressions. Curiosity flashed in her eyes, and she casually took a piece of pastry and put it in her mouth.

After these days of tempering, Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi have never seen anything strange, and they will definitely not show such expressions for ordinary trivial things.

Neither Li Jinhuan nor Zhang Siyi had any bad intentions to tease people's appetites. They looked at each other for a moment, and Zhang Siyi, who was more eloquent, said, "When I investigated the connections between Jiangnan merchants, I found a secret by following the clues. Do you remember when The crazy man Yuerguan met?"

It was nearly three months ago that I went to Yu'er Temple. Ji Xinxue thought about it carefully for a moment, and hesitantly asked, "Luo Fan?"

He remembered that the Taoists of Yu'er Temple seemed to have said that the man's name was Luo Fan.

A man who lied about the death of his parents was exposed by the servant who came to find him many years after An Ye got married and had children.

Luo Fan claimed to be the merchant's nephew, but in fact he was the governor's son. He ran away from home because of endless disputes with his wife.

The lie was exposed, and Luo Fan first persuaded An Ye's father-in-law and brother-in-law to conceal the fact that Zhang Lan was pregnant.

After Zhang Lan gave birth safely, Luo Fan told Zhang Lan the truth with the help of his father-in-law and brother-in-law, and promised to completely sever ties with his wife and never let Zhang Lan and his children feel wronged.

Even though Zhang Lan said that he didn't want to leave An Ye, Luo Fan nodded repeatedly.

Luo Fan had just left Anye during the day, and Zhang Lan, who had never cried since learning the truth, drowned in her arms at night with her youngest son.

Three months later, Luo Fan returned to Anye, unable to accept such a result, and went crazy.

During the period, Luo Fan's family took Luo Fan away, because Luo Fan would commit suicide every once in a while if he couldn't see Zhang Lan's tomb, and brought Luo Fan back to Anye not long after, to show a large sum of incense to Yu'er money, and put him in foster care there.

Zhang Siyi nodded and shook her head again, "He calls himself Luo Fan, but his actual name is Shi Mao."

Yu Heng paused for a moment with the arm holding the teacup, and looked up at Li Jinhuan with a complicated face, "What is his relationship with Shi Yu?"

They wanted to pass Zhang Lan's tomb when they went from Yu'er Temple to other Taoist temples and temples on the outskirts of the city, and saw the crazy man again.

When Li Jinhuan saw the crazy man, he insisted that the crazy man and Shi Yu's bones were almost the same, so they must be related by blood.

Back then when Shi Yu entered Hanzhuyuan through an examination and became a classmate of Ji Xinxue's, Shi Yu's father was the governor of Yuanzhou, so he was able to meet the "inspector" mentioned by the servant of the mad man's family when he came to Anye to find the mad man. The man of the house'.

If it hadn't been for the successive earthquakes and the discovery of Ji Xinxue being plotted against, and the fact that she hadn't been free, the Princess Mansion would have sent someone to investigate the origin of the crazy man.

Both Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi were so busy that they kept their feet on the ground, they had long forgotten about the crazy man.

They searched the connections between the Jiangnan merchants, found out the brother Cong who was sent by the madman's family to take care of An Ye, and found out about the madman. By the way, they tried to prove that the madman was Shi Yu's blood relative.

After hearing Zhang Siyi's summary, Ji Xinxue's eyes became more complicated, and she covered her stomach and said, "If it's not urgent, I'll call for a supper first."

He can be sure that apart from the former governor of Yuanzhou and the governor of Xunyang Prefecture, there is no second governor named Shi in his family, so the crazy man Shi Mao is the son of Governor of Xunyang Prefecture.

Calculated according to the time, when Shi Mao ran away from home, the Governor of Xunyang Mansion was already the governor of Yuanzhou.

No matter how big the conflict is, it is outrageous for the son of the governor of Shangzhou to run away from home for seven years because of the conflict with his first wife.

What's even more outrageous is that after Shi Mao was found, he promised Zhang Lan that he would live in Anye in the future, but he could actually return to Anye after returning home.

There must be a long story in it.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the small kitchen brought a hot pot.

Zhang Siyi is a person who is very good at telling stories, and the weirdest part is opening his mouth.

He first told Ji Xinxue and Yu Heng that there were only two sons of the governor of Xunyang Prefecture, both of whom were born by his wife, Shi Mao was the eldest son, and Shi Yu who was in Chang'an was the youngest son.

Ji Xinxue asked the question very cooperatively, "Do Shi Mao and Fa's wife have any children?"

Zhang Siyi cast an appreciative look at Ji Xinxue, "No."

In order to avoid being beaten, Zhang Siyi dropped the suspense and immediately started talking about business.

This clue begins with Wenshutang, where Gaoli was placed in Anye.

When Li Jinhuan interrogated the servants of Wenshutang, he found that Wenshutang would send large sums of money to the Jiangnan merchants interrogated by Zhang Siyi at a fixed time every month.

In the end, the money was found on Shi Mao's elder brother.

In terms of blood relationship, Shi Mao's elder brother has almost nothing to do with Shi Mao. Presumably, the juniors who are really close to the governor of Xunyang Mansion are unwilling to come to Anye to guard the disabled, so they choose Shi Mao's elder brother.

This is a person with extremely soft bones, and he will explain everything he knows before he is executed.

He was ordered by the Governor of Xunyang Mansion to visit Shi Mao at Yu'er Temple every ten days, and the Taoist priests who were not allowed to treat Shi Mao harshly, asked Shi Mao if he would go home.

In addition, someone gave him a large sum of money, and only asked him if Shi Mao's madness had improved, and occasionally asked the Governor of Xunyang Mansion about his attitude towards Shi Mao.

Shi Mao's brother association wrote all the conversations between the person who sent him the money and him on the letter paper, and when the governor of Xunyang Prefecture sent letters to Anye every month, he handed over the accumulated letters to the sender.

Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi sensed that something was wrong, so they sent people to Yu'er to observe Shi Mao's safety first, and they were relieved to find that Shi Mao was still alive, so they sent people to make a difficult investigation.

Shi Mao is the eldest son of the Governor of Xunyang Mansion. He was smart and sensible since he was a child, and he was well-known in Yuanzhou and even the surrounding states.

No one expected that the governor of Yuanzhou would choose an orphan girl to be his wife for Shi Mao when Shi Mao was 17 years old.

The orphan is the daughter of the local Wei general. The general once saved the life of the governor of Yuanzhou. When he took his family to Zhuangzi to play, he encountered a fire. Only the daughter who stayed in the city survived.

Ten years later, the general's daughter has grown up to be married, and Yuanzhou Governor felt sorry for his benefactor's daughter, so it is understandable to want to repay the favor.

Shi Mao married the general's daughter, and it has never been reported that the two had quarrels on weekdays.

Two years later, Yuanzhou Governor's Office suddenly said that Shi Mao was seriously ill, and moved Shi Mao to the Zhuangzi to recuperate, until now exactly ten years have passed.

That is to say, when Shi Mao ran away from home and became insane, the Governor of Xunyang Mansion said that Shi Mao had a strange disease and was recuperating.

Yu Heng filled up the bowl in front of Ji Xinxue before thinking about Zhang Siyi's words.

When Shi Mao was found by the servants at home, Jiang Nan had not responded to Chang'an's decree, and Shi Yu was detained in Chang'an, which is equivalent to the youngest son of the governor of Xunyang Mansion has been abolished.

Now that Shi Mao is crazy, he is equivalent to a disabled person, and the first wife in Shi Mao's family has never given birth.

In this case, if the magistrate of Xunyang Mansion doesn't want to save others at the expense of others for many years, he can only choose the son and daughter of Shi Mao and Zhang Lan.

"Xunyang Prefecture's Yin and his wife treat Shi Mao's hair." Ji Xinxue felt a little strange, and asked, "How does the Xunyang Prefecture's Yin and his wife treat the benefactor's daughter?"

"Everyone in the world praises the Yin of the Xunyang Mansion for knowing how to repay her kindness, and she treats her benefactor's daughter as if she is her own daughter. The benefactor's daughter married into the Shi family and has always been in charge of the family affairs. Zhuangzi takes care of Shi Mao who is 'seriously ill'. According to news from Jiangnan, the Yin and his wife of Xunyang Prefecture are considering adopting a child for the eldest son and his eldest son's wife." Zhang Siyi said.

Ji Xinxue made no secret of her ridicule, "Choosing the benefactor's daughter without hesitation between her own son, her own grandson, and her benefactor's daughter, the governor of Xunyang Prefecture is really a good person who knows how to repay her kindness."

He didn't believe that Emperor Yanguang's former confidant would have such an upright character.

Ji Xinxue blinked frantically to hide the excitement in her heart.

Combined with the content of Shi Mao's cousin's confession, the Governor of Xunyang Mansion always asked Shi Mao if he would go home, and another force from the south of the Yangtze River was concerned about whether Shi Mao's madness was getting better.Yin of the Xunyang Mansion clearly knew the existence of the Jiangnan forces in the dark, but he never took any action.

Could it be that he is afraid of the Jiangnan forces?Or the behavior of the Jiangnan forces asking about Shi Mao's recent situation was a warning to the Governor of Xunyang Prefecture.

Ji Xinxue feels that Shi Mao is not only not crazy, but also holds a big secret, because he is the son of the governor of Xunyang Mansion, and the person who has been giving money to Shi Mao's cousin to inquire about Shi Mao's condition did not kill Shi Mao immediately.

Fortunately, after Yu'er saw Shi Mao, they immediately forgot Shi Mao for various reasons, otherwise they would have been secretly staring at Shi Mao's forces, and they might have taken the risk of offending the Governor of Xunyang Mansion to deal with him. Shi Mao started.

"How is Shi Mao now?" Ji Xinxue asked.

Li Jinhuan said, "Before we sent people to the south of the Yangtze River to investigate Shi Mao's wife, we found an excuse to ask the Jinwu guards to surround Yu'er Watch, and there were special Jinwu guards to watch Shi Mao."

Ji Xinxue pondered for a moment, got up and went to find someone outside the door, and ordered Jin Wuwei to bring Shi Mao and the Taoist priests who were in charge of taking care of Shi Mao back to the city.After pondering for a while, someone brought Zhang Yuanwai, Shi Mao and Zhang Lan's children back to the city.

Shi Mao and others will be brought back to Anye tomorrow, but Ji Xinxue is exhausted from excitement. The force that can make even the governor of Xunyang Mansion fear is a big fish!

Both Li Jinhuan and Zhang Siyi left after using up the pot. They had to sort out all kinds of information before interrogating Shi Mao tomorrow, so as not to show timidity in front of Shi Mao.

Seeing that Ji Xinxue was not sleepy, Yu Heng didn't leave. He had something to ask Ji Xinxue.

"What did you promise Xuanwei?"

When he just returned home, Ji Xinxue was angry because he didn't listen to the advice, so he didn't dare to ask this question immediately.

He had had enough of seeing Ji Xinxue's clear emotions toward other people, but he felt powerless that he didn't even know the reason for Ji Xinxue's emotions.

The smile on Ji Xinxue's face suddenly froze.

Yu Heng lowered his eyes to cover the disappointment in his eyes, turned and walked out, "I'll ask Xuan Wei."

Mo Changshi asked someone to give him a sword that cut iron like mud, just to test whether the sword was exaggerating.

Ji Xinxue trotted and jumped on Yu Heng's back, "Don't ask about girls."

Yu Heng stopped in place, turned to look at the person on his back, and seriously corrected Ji Xinxue's words, "I don't care about Xuanwei's affairs, I just want to know about yours."

"My concern is that after she finds out that I am a gentleman, she will chase after me with a knife." Ji Xinxue showed a pale smile, "Aye wrote again yesterday, urging me to reveal my gender to Xuan Wei 'accidentally'."

Yu Heng couldn't see Ji Xinxue's sad face, and asked, "How can it be 'inadvertently'?"

Ji Xinxue rested her head on Yu Heng's shoulder, and weakly said something like a tongue twister, "While letting Xuanwei know my real gender, believe that I don't know my real gender."

Yu Heng walked half a circle around the room with Ji Xinxue on his back, a dark light flashed in his eyes, "I have a solution."

"What?" Ji Xinxue jumped off Yu Heng's back, solemnly bowed to Yu Heng, and said pitifully, "As long as you can help me escape Xuanwei's sword, you are my real brother!"

The smile in Yu Heng's eyes faded slightly, "Forget it, I'm afraid I won't be able to face Brother Jing Yu when I return to Chang'an."

Before Ji Xinxue could react to these words, Yu Heng leaned over and pressed against Ji Xinxue's ear, saying in a seductive voice, "I'll kill Xuan Wei first, Xuan Wei won't kill you."

Ji Xinxue immediately forgot about Yu Heng's strangeness, and stared at Yu Heng dumbfounded, trying to see traces of a joke on Yu Heng's face.

Yu Heng lowered his head and looked at Ji Xinxue, his black and white eyes were serious.

Two quarters later.

Princess Xuanwei, who was already lying on the bed, suddenly heard a gradually louder voice from a distance.

"Prince of the county! Calm down!"

This voice sounded very strange but impressive, it should be someone close to Xianglin County King?After all, there is only such a county king here.

"The king of the county, the king of the county."

This person who only knows how to cry sounds like the person next to Princess Anwu,

"The princess has already fallen asleep, you will come back tomorrow!"

Princess Xuanwei's voice was familiar to her, she was her maid who had been with her for five years.

Princess Xuanwei stood up suddenly, lifted the bed curtain and looked out the window, seeing the winding candle flames approaching quickly through the thin window screen.

The servants in her yard would never dare to turn on so many lanterns when she was already lying down. Could it be that King Xianglin really came to trouble her?

Princess Xuanwei, who was knocked on the door for the first time in her life, was dazed, sitting on the bed stupidly, moving her head with the moving candlelight.

The candlelight followed the direction of the window from far to near, and gradually moved to the door.

'Bang! '

The sound of kicking the door was inconspicuous amidst all the exclamations.

Princess Xuanwei's gaze followed the kicked door, still suspecting that she was dreaming, and couldn't help pinching her thigh.

"Ji Molan, come out!" Yu Heng stopped at the door, his tone seemed to be calling for his wife-robbing enemy.

'hiss'

Princess Xuanwei gasped in pain, two pinches of small flames shot up in her eyes, rushed to the wall, picked up the dagger, and strode towards the door, "Prince Xianglin, you are too deceitful!"

A dark light flashed in Yu Heng's eyes, and without saying a word, he drew his sword and stabbed Princess Xuanwei's shoulder.

Princess Xuanwei only had time to block it with her undrawn dagger. When she heard the almost invisible cracking sound, her wrist suddenly went numb, and she almost couldn't hold the dagger.

She lowered her head in disbelief, and found that the sword that had been with her for three years had cracked a finger-long gap from the center of the scabbard, and the long sword in Yu Heng's hand was clamped in the center of the gap.

The candlelight shone on Yu Heng's eyes through the blade of the long sword, making Yu Heng's deep phoenix eyes even sharper. He moved his wrist slightly, retracted the long sword and stabbed Princess Xuanwei's other shoulder, gnashing his teeth He said, "What evil did you give Axue!"

Master Xuanwei didn't care about answering Yu Heng's words, so he drew out his dagger to resist Yu Heng's attack, and cursed bitterly, "If you think it's an evil thing, return it to me. Why are you crazy?"

It was after several lifetimes of bad luck that she encountered these two mental illnesses.

One is a liar who doesn't count, the other is an unreasonable lunatic
