, Yan Yujin and Xiao Jingrui were already waiting there.Seeing Mei Changsu and the others appear, Yan Yujin rushed up at a brisk pace, his black pupils rolled around to look at Jiu'er, and he cupped his hands and joked, "Is this young master Brother Su's new guard? It really is..." Facing the small body that has not yet grown up in front of him, he said extremely insincerely, "Really, it is suave and elegant, with a graceful appearance."

Yan Yujin said that because Jiu'er was wearing men's clothes.Of course, Miaoyinfang is not the place she should come to, but Mei Changsu really knows that if he doesn't bring her here, the little girl will follow her secretly—no matter how happy she promises.What's more, their trip was just to listen to music, and Yan Yujin, a frequent visitor, even arranged for a secluded private room.Others can also be a bit safer.

The room was wrapped in bursts of fragrant warmth to cut off the cold winter. Mei Changsu took off his cloak, and saw the blue teacups, purple sand pots, and hand stove neatly placed on the small black table in front of him. You can see who arranged it.Subconsciously, he immediately looked at Jiu'er beside him.Jiu'er saw it too, met his gaze, and bared her teeth pretending to be ferocious.Mei Changsu simply smiled.

Jiu'er sat in front of the small table with Mei Changsu, reached out and felt that the hand stove he was carrying was not hot enough, so he took the one on the table and gave it to him.

There is no one in Immortal Valley who doesn't know the rhythm, and the third and eighth senior brothers are especially good at it. Although Jiu'er is lazy, she is forced to learn the piano and flute.Although I don't want to admit it, Gong Yu can be the top girl in Miaoyinfang, and she is still a performer without selling herself. Even the sullen third senior brother will praise her musical skills as "fair".You know, hearing such a modest and implicit "Shang Ke" from the third senior brother's mouth is harder than Grand Master's Phoenix tree blooming.

Music is good music, and people are beautiful.Everyone is intoxicated.Jiu'er was bored and bored, and the beauty was still a rival in love, so Mei Changsu was a little unhappy to stare at her.The big bright eyes turned around, and he hid his hand under the table in front of him, and quietly reached out to grab his hand, his thin and smooth fingers scratched mischievously across his palm.

The corner of Mei Changsu's lips curled up into an imperceptible faint smile, he closed his palms, held her dishonest fingers, and squeezed them punitively, warning her not to mess around.He was holding the stove in his hand all the time, and the palm was so warm and comfortable, Jiu'er simply stuffed his whole hand in to keep him warm.Still rubbing and moving beside him, he stopped only when his arm touched his arm, and leaned over, as if preparing to take a nap.Mei Changsu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he really complied with that sentence!

Gong Yu embraced the pipa, plucked it lightly with bare hands, the music was coming to an end, seeing the same joy flowing in the eyes of the two of them, she knew that some thoughts should have been extinguished long ago.A song "Carrying Wine", at the end, in the sound of wind and thunder, an inch of tenderness and a thousand strands of melancholy are added for no reason.The moonlit night is still young, who hurts the three thousand lovesickness?

Although Mei Changsu didn't say anything clearly, Jiu'er also knew that he had promised Yan Yujin to come to Miaoyinfang not just to listen to the music, but to take advantage of the situation to throw out a thread for Xiao Jingrui's birthday banquet on April [-]th, and someone else would tear it away. With this fishing line, he just needs to wait for everything to be ready and the big fish to bite.

Coming out of Miaoyinfang, although the streets are still bustling, there are much fewer pedestrians than when they came.The huge bright moon seems to be hanging on the tree branches on the side of the street, and the flat bluestone road is covered with a layer of silver. Mei Changsu is holding Jiu'er's little hand and walking among the crowd. This is already a rare leisure and relaxation for him. .

On this day, Jiu'er was lying on the couch and taking a nap with her clothes on. In the past few days of the new year, and when Shangyuan night went out to watch the lights, she went crazy.Hearing that Mei Changsu was going out early this morning, he insisted on getting up early to accompany him to Prince Yu's Mansion.After holding on till now and coming back, he finally couldn't hold it anymore, and refused to go back to sleep. Mei Changsu watched with a smile while reading a book, watching the people next to him yawn continuously, his big wet eyes gradually narrowed into a line, his small brain The chick was as cute as pecking rice bit by bit, and finally touched his shoulder.

Mei Changsu couldn't bear to disturb her, so he supported her small head on the couch to make her lie more comfortably, then took a blanket from one side to cover her, moved the brazier to her side, and then turned back books.

In the rare and leisurely afternoon, the silence was unbelievable, and it seemed that one could hear the sound of melting winter snow in the depths of the earth's crust that had been frozen for the whole winter.There is no sun, but it doesn't feel dark and cold.The green bamboos in the courtyard have survived the harsh and cold winter with tenacious emerald green, and will remain verdant in the more and more intense spring breeze.

In this Jinling City, everything changes in the blink of an eye, but the least sustainable thing is peace.No matter how much you pretend to be whitewashed, it's hard to deceive the world.What's more, there are those people who hide in the dark and try to take advantage of the chaos, adding fuel to the flames all the time.

In the silence, "Boom!" There was a loud noise!Shake the whole city.Then there were a few more explosions, like bursts of thunder, rolling over the top of the head.

Mei Changsu put down the book in his hand, stood up, and hurriedly walked out the door.Li Gang also rushed over when he heard the sound—the private gun house exploded, and I'm afraid that no one in the whole capital would not hear it.

Jiu'er rubbed the corners of his eyes and got up, seeing Mei Changsu and Li Gang blocking the door in low pressure, still not sure what happened, with a woken up nasal voice, he murmured: "Brother Su— —”

Hearing the sound, Mei Changsu immediately turned around and saw the little girl's dazed expression, with sleepy tears still in her eyes.Unconsciously put away the heavy face, put on a smiling face and walked over.

"Did you wake up?"

Jiu'er nodded, seeing that he had just stood still in front of him, he plunged forward, closed his eyes and moaned and arched, arching his black hair into a chicken coop.

Mei Changsu knew that she hadn't slept enough and felt uncomfortable after being woken up, so he softly coaxed her, "Sleep for a while, okay?"

Jiu'er shook her head, although she didn't know what happened, but Li Gang had been waiting by the side, obviously it was an urgent matter.After a while, he raised his head from his arms, stretched out his hands and patted his cheeks, and then jumped off the couch, looking refreshed in an instant.

Following Mei Changsu to the scene of the explosion in the private cannon house, Jiu Erfang felt that compared with the implicated people in these ruined houses, her lack of sleep was nothing worth mentioning.An ancient book says, "Disaster and blessing go hand in hand, and life and death are neighbors."She really understood today—the new year has just passed, and the lively and joyful atmosphere of the Spring Festival is still lingering, but overnight, the family was ruined and the Yin and Yang were separated.Even if Jiu'er is so out of touch with the world, seeing the women, children and old people kneeling by the roadside in pain, he can't help but feel a little sad.

The entire burned street is still filled with light smoke, and the choking smell of burnt smell fills the nostrils.Mei Changsu didn't speak all the way, his footsteps were heavy, Jiu'er just followed obediently and didn't bother him.

King Jing Xiao Jingyan, dressed in armor and military attire, walked out of a collapsed residential building that he had just finished inspecting. When he saw Mei Changsu, he greeted him.

Jiu'er actually knew that Mei Changsu had already blamed himself very much.He underestimated how ruthless King Yu was, and he didn't expect that King Yu would blow up the private gun house in vain, just to increase the weight of beating the prince!But the handle of the prince's private cannon house, after all, he personally sent to King Yu.As such, he sees himself as the driving force behind all of this.

I heard Prince Jing say in a suspicious and questioning tone, "Is this Mr. Su's conspiracy for Prince Yu?"

Jiu'er was both angry and distressed for Mei Changsu.Her way of expressing her indignation was very simple, without even thinking about it, she lifted her foot and kicked the perpetrator's calf hard!In an instant, His Highness Prince Jing left a striking black footprint on the hem of his clothes stained with a little soot...

That's not to mention, Jiu'er's always smiling and pretty face was full of clouds, she took a step forward, stared into his eyes and said: "If you hadn't agreed to Brother Su, this sentence alone would have made you die a thousand times." Not enough!"

Xiao Jingyan looked at Mei Changsu, and then at the little girl who reached his shoulders, her body was tense and her big eyes were looking at him viciously, as if she wanted to pounce on him and take a bite.

"Jiu'er!" Mei Changsu pulled her back, "His Highness Prince Jing didn't do it on purpose."

Jiu'er was not convinced: "I'll poison him to death first, and then say that I 'didn't do it on purpose', okay?!" Such cruel words are worse than hurting people's lives!

In the end, Prince Jing bowed his hands and apologized.He didn't really doubt Mei Changsu, it was just a moment of extreme anger, otherwise he wouldn't have ordered Neishi not to report the resettlement of injured civilians to the Ministry of War as he said without any explanation from Mei Changsu. military resources used.

It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that I don't believe it enough.

The heavy curtains obscured the tragic sight, and Jiu'er sat next to Mei Changsu in the rumbling carriage.

Seeing the little girl's rare silence, Mei Changsu laughed at her: "Aren't you angry?"

At the mention, Jiu'er was furious again: "That Prince Jing..." snorted twice threateningly.

Mei Changsu tapped her and stared at her.

"Okay!" Jiu'er pouted, "I remember! Don't hurt him!" The tone was that the boss was reluctant.

"We have wronged Jiuer." Mei Changsu stroked her forehead comfortingly.

"I don't have any grievances!" Jiu'er hugged his arms distressedly, "Brother Su is the one who is wronged."

"I'm not wronged," Mei Changsu said, "Jiu'er is here."
