Riding the Pheonix Chapter 205: Like

Drowsily, Ji Xiaowu felt a chill in his head and woke up. ()

He found himself sleeping on the bed. Duofu placed a hand on his forehead. Seeing him wake up, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Fifth Young Master, are you okay?"

Ji Xiaowu touched his head: "It's okay, am I drunk?"

Duofu said: "They put something in the wine and fell asleep easily."

Ji Xiaowu was shocked: "Drug? What do they want to do?"

"It's not that serious." Duofu opened his hand and let the little white snake fall into his palm, "Miss, please tell us something."

……

East Palace.

Jiang Sheng held the pen and slowly wrote the post.

Since his mother passed away, he has picked up this habit.

Whenever I feel uneasy, come over and write.

After writing a copybook, the **** from outside came to report: "Master Wen is here."

Prince Wen is the eldest son of Marquis Chengen. He is about the same age as the prince and has been his companion for more than ten years. The two have a very good relationship.

Jiang Sheng put down his pen: "Ask him to come in."

Wen Yuan, the eldest son of Wen, entered the study, saluted, and then motioned to the left and right to retreat.

Jiang Sheng nodded, and after a while, they were the only two people left in the study.

"Is there anything important?" Jiang Sheng rubbed his wrist and picked up the tea.

Wen Yuan said: "Your Highness ordered me to keep an eye on that boy from the Yang family..."

"What, is there something abnormal?"

If there is nothing abnormal, Wen Yuan does not need to come here to report.

"He goes to the Si Yamen for business every day and visits the Fu Yamen from time to time. There is nothing special. However, I recently discovered that he is very close to a person."

Jiang Sheng said: "You are not talking about Jiang Wenfeng, are you?"

"Of course not." Wen Yuan said hurriedly, "Jiang Wenfeng has a lot of contacts with him, and His Highness already knows that the person I am talking about is a woman."

Jiang Sheng didn't take it seriously: "With his reputation, why is it strange that he associates so much with women?"

Wen Yuan said: "But when he returned to Beijing this time, he never interacted with those women again."

Jiang Sheng frowned and looked at him.

"When this boy comes back, he seems to have changed his mind. He will never go to those places of smoke and willows again, and when he meets a woman, he doesn't pretend to be polite."

"..." Jiang Sheng put down the cup heavily and sneered, "Who is he showing off to? Even if the father knows, so what? He alone..."

Jiang Sheng didn't say the next words.

Some words cannot be said, even if everyone knows it.

He took a deep breath and asked: "Which building is that woman from?"

"She is not a girl from a certain building." Wen Yuan said softly, "I checked and found out that she is a girl from a good family, and her uncle is the Secretary of the Imperial Academy."

"Ji Shu?" Jiang Sheng thought for a while, but didn't think of this person.

Wen Yuan immediately said: "You may not know Ji Shu, but you must have heard of her father."

"Who?"

"Ming Xin. A descendant of Nanxiang Hou, Ming Xin was beheaded for treason."

Of course Jiang Sheng knows about this case.

He wondered: "How come he associates with Ming Xin's daughter? Even if the father is magnanimous and forgives her, the daughter of the guilty minister is still the daughter of the guilty minister. Not only is this not good for him, but it will also make the father Not a good impression."

Wen Yuan said: "This is what I don't understand. This daughter of Ming Xin got acquainted with him in Dongning, and they still kept close contact with him after entering Beijing. Why did that person want to interact with her like this? Later, I went there by myself Just look and you can guess a thing or two."

"How to say it?"

Wen Yuan said: "This woman has an extraordinary appearance."

"..." Jiang Sheng stared at the inkstone for a while, "You mean, he is interested in this woman?"

"That should be the case. Your Highness, think about it, he suddenly changed his absurd behavior in the past, and this is a daughter of a good family, what else could it be other than this reason?"

Jiang Sheng nodded: "That's true."

Wen Yuan saw that he looked calm and couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so he asked: "Your Highness, do we want to..."

Jiang Sheng waved his hand: "Don't disturb him yet. Go back and think carefully about whether there is anything you can use."

Wen Yuan agreed: "Yes."

After saying this, Jiang Sheng asked again: "Has the fourth cousin been found again?"

Wen Yuan shook his head sadly.

Jiang Sheng said: "I'm going to say hello to Jiang Wenfeng. Don't worry, my fourth cousin will return safely."

The two said a few words, and Wen Yuan resigned.

Jiang Sheng slowly drank the cold cup of tea, then suddenly put the cup on the table and sneered.

One or two, they both fooled him like this.

It was obviously his third cousin who was missing, but he was told that it was his fourth cousin.

Now, do you still want to marry your third cousin to him?

I really thought the position of the Crown Princess was so easy to sit in!

……

Unknowingly, Ji Xiaowu stayed in Kangle Lane for several days.

Gui Niang was playing the pipa in the room while listening to the conversation between their master and servant.

"Sir, when are we leaving?" This was Duofu's voice.

Ji Xiaowu said with a bit of flattery: "We stay wherever we live, can't we just stay in an inn?"

Duofu was displeased: "There are so many women coming and going every day, how can the inn be so immoral? Master, when you come out, you promised me that you will go back to play and not mess around!"

"When did I mess up? Please tell me yourself, did I do anything improper?"

Duofu seemed to be convinced by him, and after a while he muttered again: "Then you have to hold on."

"I know!" Ji Xiaowu soothed softly, "Thank you, I'm not coveting anything, but it's the safest place to live here. Think about it, even if my father sent someone to look for him, he would guess that we live here Here?"

Duofu thought for a while: "That's right..."

Gui Niang smiled after hearing this. This pair of master and servant are really innocent...

Thinking about this, she stared blankly at the trees in the yard. In fact, they were so innocent in the beginning...

After a while, Ji Xiaowu came over.

"Sister Gui Niang."

Gui Niang came to her senses, stood up and bowed, asked him to sit down, and served tea herself.

Ji Xiaowu smiled at her and carefully took out something: "I saw this on the street earlier and thought my sister would like it..."

In his hand is a fragrant ball, which is extremely finely made.

Gui Niang took it with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Guo."

Looking at her ordinary smile~IndoMTL.com~Ji Xiaowu asked in a low voice: "Sister, don't you like it?"

Guiniang said: "I like it."

"But you don't smile happily." Ji Xiaowu scratched his head, "Sister, there's no need to pretend in front of me. Since you don't like it, I'll find someone you like next time..."

Gui Niang looked at him quietly.

How long has it been since she saw the expression of apprehension in the flattery? There are some men who are obsessed with her beauty, praise her skills, and love her appearance, but what about these? They don't feel like they are the same people at all.

Gui Niang sighed in her heart and said, "Mr. Guo, do you like Gui Niang?"

Ji Xiaowu's face quickly turned red and he smiled at her: "Of course I like my sister."

"That's not what I said." Gui Niang said sternly, "You can like Gui Niang's appearance and talent, but you can't like Gui Niang, do you understand?"

Ji Xiaowu was startled and his smile faded.
