Chapter 65 Chapter 65 When he looked up, he saw someone other than Mingrou.
In early March, the State of Wei was defeated and surrendered.
Within the State of Yan, the originally desolate small county town also became prosperous, with picturesque spring scenery and a slight warmth.
In front of the notice board of the government office in the small county town, officers and soldiers were posting notices.
Since the new king ascended the throne, the people of Yan State have benefited from his wisdom and benevolence and have finally lived a peaceful life. Many places that were once in decline have gradually prospered, and the scene is prosperous and thriving, which is quite a sign of a prosperous age.
The territory of Wei was returned to Yan, and the people of Wei were treated well. For a time, the people and the army of Yan were united in their hearts, and the new king of Yan was in the limelight.
People stood in front of the bulletin board, whispering and discussing the current situation.
"General Song Lai is truly formidable. He defeated the State of Wei in just six months. Such a ferocious feat is unheard of."
"Don't you know? Tianque's forces previously submitted to the State of Yan, which is why the Yan army seemed to have divine assistance. However, that Que Lord is a heinous criminal and is still wanted."
"But I remember that the Lord of Que was replaced. He also helped the Yan army repel the Qian Kingdom..."
"That's not true. The Lord of the Que State encouraged them to do evil, and those Que disciples were tired of being manipulated and didn't want to be accomplices to the evil. That's why they helped the State of Yan and surrendered to General Song as a token of their allegiance..."
Jiang Daiyi covered her face with a veil, blending into the crowd as she read the news on the notice board. Mingrou, who was also wearing a veil beside her, heard the conversation among the people, and her face under the veil turned blue with anger.
"Nonsense..." Mingrou was about to go up and argue when she was stopped by Jiang Daiyi. Two officers and soldiers came out, tore off one of the pages of the wanted poster on the bulletin board, tore it into pieces, and turned to leave to the other side.
Jiang Daiyi pulled Mingrou and whispered, "Let's go back to the inn first."
Inside the inn, Jiang Daiyi took off the veil on her head and lazily leaned beside the small table.
Mingrou felt sorry for Jiang Dai and threw Muli to the ground.
"It was you who clearly helped the State of Yan, but they didn't see it and didn't know the truth. They just judged you as good or evil based on a few rumors."
She couldn't understand how her reputation could become so bad in just a few months, as if she had done many unforgivable things.
I'm still a little sad.
Mingrou speculated, "You said these people are so quick to believe everything they hear. Could it be that Yunqin is plotting against you again? Is he trying to force you back to Yanling King City?"
Jiang Daiyi shook her head: "It can't be Yunqin. If Yunqin wanted to find me, he would have found me long ago. He would not bother to use such a despicable method."
Moreover, the officers and soldiers on the streets have been removing the wanted posters for Jiang Daiyi, obviously not wanting the people to know what Jiang Daiyi looks like.
The wanted order was not issued by Yunqin. It looked like it was issued by another country. Even in secret, Yunqin's people were helping her.
The two officers and soldiers who had just torn up the wanted poster obviously didn't want this kind of thing to appear in the eyes of the people.
Mingrou wondered, apart from Yunqin, who else could be so obsessed with plotting against Jiang Daiyi? These people had never seen Jiang Daiyi before, but now they all knew what she looked like and that she was once the Lord of Tianque. They all thought Jiang Daiyi was a bad person.
Jiang Daiyi said, "Perhaps, it is King Huai Geng."
During the battle at the border, King Huai Geng and Jiang Daiyi had a feud. Originally, King Huai Geng did not know that Jiang Daiyi was the Lord of Tianque, nor did he recognize her, but at that time, many unrepentant Que disciples fled, probably to surrender to King Huai Geng.
King Huai Geng is vindictive, so I'm afraid this matter will not end well.
Mingrou suddenly realized: "Indeed, you caused King Huai Geng to be defeated without a fight, so it's only natural that he would bear a grudge against you."
Fortunately, Jiang Daiyi had already moved her parents to a safe place. In this situation, they might be in danger if they stayed with her.
Fortunately, the officers and soldiers in Yan State have been clearing the streets of fake wanted posters that slander Jiang Daiyi. Jiang Daiyi and Mingrou are not in any danger for the time being, except for being on guard against being recognized by the people.
But just a few days later, the wind direction changed again.
It is unknown who spread the news that Jiang Daiyi had sneaked into the Yun family as an assassin. On the day when the Yun family announced to the world that Yun Ai was dead, Jiang Daiyi was released by Yun Qin.
Yun Qin, who is respected by the world, was cursed for the first time.
"Why did Master Yun let the assassin go? She's not of the Yun family's bloodline. She's been deceiving the Yun family for so many years and has been harming the people. Why didn't Master Yun kill her?"
"Perhaps they've developed a secret relationship, right? They've been together day and night, accompanying each other every day. Even if there's no blood relationship between the two of them, Master Yunqin is willing to give up seven years of friendship?"
"Even if you can't bear to kill him, you have to lock him up. Why let him go?"
"Exactly. Is Master Yunqin really as devoted to the people as the rumors say? It's no secret that he previously favored that fake sister, and now he's even disregarding the overall situation for his own selfish reasons..."
“…”
Mingrou was spitting out melon seed shells from the window. She no longer had the anxiety of the previous two days, but instead looked extremely bored.
Jiang Daiyi fiddled with a guqin, a look of boredom on her face. She said, "It's always the same old story. Isn't that enough?"
For fear of being recognized, Jiang Daiyi and Mingrou have been trapped in the inn for a long time. They dare not go out rashly and can only go out for some fresh air at night like night owls.
Mingrou, with dark circles under her eyes, finally understood what King Huai Geng's ultimate goal was.
"So they're trying to use your identity to sway the people. This is truly the work of that evil old man, King Huai Geng."
The State of Yan is powerful and Yun Qin is very popular among the people. If King Huai Geng does not find a way to trip up Yun Qin, the State of Qian may follow the same fate as the State of Wei.
The guqin strings made a harsh sound, and Jiang Daiyi frowned, "This thing is really hard to practice."
Mingrou said, "You need a master."
When Jiang Daiyi heard Mingrou picking up the sword, she glanced at Mingrou and asked, "Where are you going?"
Mingrou said, "I will go to the Kingdom of Qian to kill King Huai Geng, and find you a master while I'm at it."
Jiang Daiyi held the music sheet in her hand, frowned as she looked at the reduced characters on it, trying to understand them, but she was distracted and reminded.
"Stop messing around. My wanted order is fake, but yours is real. I'm afraid you've already been captured by Yunqin before you even reach Qian Country."
That’s right, Yunqin is still trying to catch Mingrou.
Mingrou's spirit faded a little, "Oh my god..."
It seemed like we had entered a dead end, with enemies on all sides.
Jiang Daiyi put down the abridged notation, feeling a little confused.
"Why has Yunqin been trying to capture you? Logically speaking, it was my instruction that you impersonated Yunyi, and you didn't pose any threat to Yunqin. Why does he keep trying to capture you?"
Mingrou rolled her eyes. "Who knows what's wrong with him?"
Jiang Daiyi rested her chin on the edge of the book, her eyes filled with thought.
Qian Xiang and Qiang Wu Yue are still in Yun Qin's hands. At the beginning, Qiang Wu Yue sneaked out and wanted to join forces with Qian Xiang to capture her, so the Qiang family probably doesn't know that Qiang Wu Yue is in Yun Qin's hands.
Qiang Wuyue, Qianxiang, Mingrou...
Apart from the fact that two of them are time travelers, there is nothing special about them. They have nothing to do with Mingrou in any way.
Jiang Dai couldn't figure it out. She said, "It's so complicated."
Mingrou echoed, "It's so complicated and annoying. Every day I'm either guessing what this person is up to or being wary of what that person is up to. It's so annoying!"
Jiang Dai wanted to return to the Yun Mansion to see what other secrets Qian Xiang had.
"Mingrou." Jiang Daiyi called Mingrou.
Mingrou asked, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Daiyi: "I want to go back to Yanling."
Mingrou guessed what Jiang Dai was planning to do almost instantly. She asked in surprise, "You want to go back to the Yun Mansion? Are you crazy too?"
After finally avoiding Yunqin for these days, I have to go back again.
Jiang Daiyi said: "Qian Xiang is in Yunqin's hands, but Yunqin did not kill him."
Mingrou heard Jiang Daiyi mention the secret of Qian Xiang, so she asked, "Are you guessing that Yun Qin learned some special information from Qian Xiang, and is this information related to me?"
Jiang Daiyi nodded: "Perhaps that's why Yunqin has always wanted to catch you."
Mingrou said, "Why bother about what secret information he knows? Let's see what the situation is like first. I'm afraid if you go there, you'll fall into his trap again."
Jiang Dai felt a pain in her heart. She stroked her forehead and felt that what Mingrou said made sense. Even if she knew what Qianxiang had revealed to Yunqin, what could she do? If it was really related to Mingrou, she could only take Mingrou with her and run away.
"Forget it, let's not think about it for now." Jiang Daiyi put down the music score in her hand, turned around and walked towards the edge of the bed. Maybe because she ran outside every night in the past few days and caught a cold, her head was slightly hot.
Mingrou noticed that Jiang Daiyi looked a little strange, so she walked to the bedside and asked, "Daiyi, are you sick?"
Jiang Daiyi was afraid that Mingrou would be recognized when she went out to buy medicine for her, so she smiled and said, "Didn't you notice that we are still wearing old clothes? It's just that the clothes are thicker, and I have a little fever."
Mingrou was about to believe it: "Really?"
The two have long been like family, supporting each other in Tianque like sisters, so Mingrou cares about Jiang Daiyi very much, but Jiang Daiyi does not want Mingrou to take risks.
Jiang Daiyi closed her eyes. Mingrou saw that she was really tired, so she said no more. If she still looked unwell tomorrow, she could just go get the medicine.
The sky was dark and I felt dazed for a few moments.
Jiang Daiyi was awakened by a nightmare. She sat up suddenly, cold sweat oozing from her forehead.
Her cheeks flushed, and her sickly expression was tinged with a hint of lust. She dreamed that Yun Qin had imprisoned her in the Yun Residence, in the Guanxue Pavilion, and that she and Yun Qin had slept on the same bed day after day...
Jiang Daiyi's nostrils seemed to be filled with the cold fragrance of Yun Qin in her dream. Her eyelashes trembled slightly. It was too absurd. How could she have such a dream?
She gently wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve. It must be because of her illness. Her body was as hot as a stove, but she felt very cold, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
The room was extremely quiet. Outside the window, dark clouds obscured the moon. Suddenly, not even a trace of moonlight disappeared, and it was so dark that one could not see anything.
Footsteps were heard in the room, and Jiang Daiyi looked over in the darkness.
"Mingrou, are you still awake?"
Jiang Daiyi didn't hear Mingrou's reply. Due to the cold and fever, her voice was dry and dull, and there was a bitter taste in her mouth. She asked Mingrou, "Why don't you speak?"
Jiang Daiyi put on her embroidered shoes in the dark. The moonlight was dimly shining. Her steps were unsteady, but when she looked up, she saw not Mingrou.
Under the dim moonlight, there was Yun Qin's figure. His jade-like face was enchanting, and his eyes were fixed on her.
Yun Qin called her gently, "Sister."
