Considering that this place is really remote, even if someone is really following him, he and Jiang Zhi may not be able to deal with each other. Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao withdrew her gaze and pretended to be nonchalant and said, "Is there someone there? Did you see it wrong?"
Jiang Zhi actually didn't refute Jiang Nianjiao's words, she just lowered her eyes and said, "Maybe I really saw it wrong."
"By the way, do you know how to get back to the main road?" Jiang Nianjiao asked again.
Jiang Zhi nodded.
Jiang Nianjiao gave up her struggle and said, "Then you can lead the way."
Jiang Zhi took the initiative to walk in front.
The two then walked for a while, and Jiang Nianjiao didn't notice anyone following her. She didn't take the matter to heart.
…
In another part of the peach forest, a secret guard shuttled through the peach forest like a flying swallow. In the end, he only stopped when flying to a pavilion.
On the stone table of the small pavilion, there is an old toad tripod.
A handsome young man with a tall nose and deep eyes was holding a white jade flute and playing an extremely exotic and weird tune.
At the other end of the pavilion, sitting next to the bench, was Zhao Yanzhen, who was beating the joints with his hands and looking absentmindedly into the distance.
It wasn't until the secret guard appeared that Zhao Yanzhen stopped his movements.
The secret guard did not step into the pavilion. He only knelt down on one knee outside the pavilion and said: "Your Highness, the fifth prince is just as you expected. Now he is entangled with Jiang Xiang's two daughters. His humble position has already made him angry." The disgusting combination Gu was planted in the fifth prince's body."
"Just when Beizhi wanted to put the other half of the disgusting combination Gu on the two daughters of the Jiang family, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family suddenly appeared. Beizhi remembered that His Highness had ordered not to take action against the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, so Beizhi never Dare to take action. And the two daughters of the Jiang family are very vigilant..."
After hearing the guard's report, Zhao Yanzhen, who was as bright as the breeze and the bright moon, narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"You mean you failed the mission?"
His voice was as clear and clear as an ice knife hanging above his head.
The secret guard did not dare to make a sound.
Zhao Yanzhen repeated the question he just asked. Although the secret guard did not understand how his master, who used to be like a wandering cloud and a crane, had become so violent now.
But in just a few days, he had already witnessed Zhao Yanzhen's power. The secret guard did not dare to hesitate any more and could only respond loudly.
Then, as if to make up for himself, "Your Highness, please give me another chance. I will definitely live up to my mission."
As soon as the secret guard finished speaking, the boy playing the flute behind Zhao Yanzhen shouted happily, "It's done!"
As the young man finished speaking, Zhao Yanzhen and the secret guard both looked in the young man's direction.
I saw a blood-red centipede slowly crawling out of the old toad cauldron on the table.
After the red centipede crawled out, the young man only brought an opened copper ball close to the red centipede. The centipede seemed to be attracted by the balsam in the copper ball, and actually crawled slowly and impartially into the small copper ball. .
Then the red centipede's body completely melted into the balsam.
After watching the whole process, the secret guard couldn't help but feel a chill on the back of his neck.
He was just afraid that the poisonous poison he had just made would be used on himself.
Out of fear of what might happen, the boy playing the flute behind Zhao Yanzhen had stopped playing the flute at some point. He walked up to Zhao Yanzhen and said with a smile, "Third brother, a guy who messes up such a trivial matter, what does he have to do with a loser?" The difference is, you might as well give me the reward, I have a new poisonous poison to try."
When the secret guard heard this, he felt like he was being beaten on the fire, and he lowered his head. I thought to myself that I was afraid that my life would not be long.
If his master is a vicious person who likes to shoot cold arrows in people's backs, then the young man behind him is a black scorpion who especially likes to develop poisonous poisons.
Several of his brothers had already been given to this young man by his master, and after he was given to the other party, his brothers could no longer find this person in the palace.
Zhao Yanzhen only glanced at the secret guard condescendingly. In his impression, this man was quite loyal, so he denied it and said, "I still have use for this man."
After hearing this, although the young man was reluctant, he stopped speaking.
But the secret guard breathed a sigh of relief and immediately expressed his loyalty: "Your Highness, don't worry, I will definitely live up to Your Highness's expectations this time."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yanzhen said, "This matter is not urgent. We will see the effect first."
"But you said the eldest daughter of the Jiang family suddenly appeared today?"
The secret guard didn't dare to guess his master's thoughts, so he just said yes.
Zhao Yanzhen then asked again, "Why did she appear?"
The secret guard whispered, "I listened to their conversation. It seems that the Concubine Xian summoned the second young lady of the Jiang family."
Hearing this, Zhao Yanzhen only sneered. Concubine Xian was probably having a headache at the moment because of her elder brother and the little medical girl, so she had no time to pay attention to the second young lady of the Jiang family.
What's more, because of the death of her sister, Concubine Xian complained to everyone in the Jiang family except Jiang Nianjiao.
Thinking of this, and remembering the previous interactions with Jiang Nianjiao, Zhao Yanzhen only murmured in a low voice, "There is really not a word of truth in this little liar's mouth."
Then, he waved to the secret guard and said, "Okay, please step back."
After the secret guard left, he turned around and asked the young man beside him, "Alang, has the empathy Gu I asked you to develop before now ready?"
Zhao Lang quickly took out another hollow copper ball from his purse and presented the treasure and said, "I was about to give this to my third brother. All the classics in my mother's hands were burned. It was a waste of time to develop this thing." I have a lot of effort.”
Zhao Yanzhen did not take the copper ball. He said quietly, "Thank you for your hard work, but now it seems that I may not be able to use this empathy Gu."
Hearing Zhao Yanzhen's words, Zhao Lang immediately let out a sigh, and it took him a while to remember what he wanted to say.
"No, Third Brother, this thing has wasted a lot of my efforts! It has also wasted several of the treasures I have raised. It would be a pity if they were ruined like this."
"Don't worry, I won't miss you because it's your benefit."
Hearing that Zhao Yanzhen had a lot of his own things, the young man stopped playing with his little copper ball.
In order to win Zhao Yanzhen's trust, he even dissolved the pills in the hollow copper ball with tea in front of Zhao Yanzhen, and then poured it on the weeds nearby.
Although he didn't know why Zhao Yanzhen went back on his word, in his simple understanding, the third brother was a smart man.
And when he was thrown into the cold palace because of his mother's witchcraft, it was the third brother's mother, Queen Min, who rescued him and raised him by her side.
Therefore, his attitude is naturally on Zhao Yanzhen's side.
…
"I have nothing to talk about with you, Jiang Nianjiao, don't think that just because you begged for Xiaorou once, I will be grateful to you."
When Jiang Nianjiao asked Jiang Zhi to find Zhao Nianze and asked for a talk, Zhao Nianze rejected Jiang Nianjiao's request almost without thinking.
Then he complained to Jiang Zhi who had brought this annoying Jiang Nianjiao here, "You are the same, Xiaozhi. You clearly know that she and Xiaorou don't get along, so why did you bring her here?"
Jiang Zhi quickly spoke up to defend herself and Jiang Nianjiao, "Your Highness, I think my sister really wants to help you and Miss Arou."
But Jiang Zhi's words were obviously not convincing to Zhao Nianze.
"Will she help Xiaorou? Jiang Zhi, don't be stupid. If she really wanted to help Xiaorou, why did she frame Xiaorou again and again in the first place."
Listening to Zhao Nianze's words, Jiang Nianjiao felt that her ears were about to grow calluses.
But who allowed himself to commit too many sins in the first place?
Therefore, when Jiang Zhi wanted to defend herself, she said, "I don't expect you to be grateful. Cousin, the reason why I agreed to help you is actually for myself. Now my aunt has a lot of opinions on Su Zhirou, If I can say a word for you, it would be much better than risking your life, right?"
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Zhao Nianze's face was still full of anger.
But her words obviously struck a chord with him.
From today on, he tried his best to protect Su Zhirou, but just one word from Jiang Nianjiao made Concubine Yuxian change her mind.
Jiang Nianjiao is indeed able to solve problems more effectively than herself.
Therefore, once he calmed down, his original hostility towards Jiang Nianjiao that was very repulsive was temporarily put down.
"What good will it do for you to help us?" Zhao Nianze asked his question very cautiously.
Jiang Nianjiao knew that Zhao Nianze was shaken. She did not answer immediately. She just looked at Jiang Zhi and said, "Azhi, His Highness and I have something to say. Can you leave here first?"
Jiang Zhi was also very sensible and quickly got up and left from the small pavilion facing the lake.
And Zhao Nianze also sent back the people around him.
When only the two of them were left in the pavilion near the lake, Jiang Nianjiao slowly said, "Cousin, I have actually figured out the matter between you and me. I, Jiang Nianjiao, do not have to do anything with you."
Zhao Nianze was obviously shocked when he first heard Jiang Nianjiao's words, but he soon turned skeptical.
After all, he had been entangled with Jiang Nianjiao for too long. Everything she said and did seemed to have the intention of forcing people to submit.
"I know you may not believe what I say, but I really don't like you anymore. If you don't believe it, you can just observe me for a while."
"By the way, my aunt will summon Su Zhirou to her side in a while. Don't worry, I will help you protect her during this period."
After listening to Jiang Nianjiao say so much, and looking at the clear look in her eyes, the dull look in her eyes was gone.
Zhao Nianze finally stopped speaking evil words.
He asked, "What are you asking for by selling these in front of me?"
"I want to seek a free marriage. My cousin should know that I don't like you, and neither the Jiang family nor the Gao family are happy to see me marry someone else, or you marry someone else."
And I can't tolerate my husband marrying me while still thinking about another woman. I believe that Miss Xiaorou will not accept sharing the one she loves with others. "
"So I hope my cousin can take the initiative to put an end to their thoughts. In return, I will convince my aunt to agree to my cousin's marriage to Miss Su."
Jiang Nianjiao's words are really shocking. After all, men in this era have always had three wives and four concubines.
But then when he thought about the Jiang family's family tradition, he no longer felt strange.
It is true that the men of the Jiang family have the custom of only marrying the first wife and not taking any concubines.
I just didn't expect that the daughter of the Jiang family would actually have such a concept.
