Chapter 67 Chapter 67 They were now sleeping on the same bed.
The north is not as warm as Yanling. Even in March, there is still a slight chill at night.
A low-key and simple carriage was parked outside the post station. The cool moonlight reflected on Yun Qin who came out from behind the curtain. He lowered his eyes, then turned around to help the girl in the carriage.
Ever since Jiang Daiyi sorted out the whole story by the lake, she could no longer ignore Yun Qin's feelings for her.
She had always thought that everything was under her control.
But one day he discovered that it was Yun Qin who was secretly doing things for him.
Regardless of whether Yun Qin was willing to let Yun Yan scheme after their first meeting, just to follow her plan in Tianque and let her enter the Yun Mansion smoothly.
Or later he allowed her to plot against him to expose the news of the Yun family, while he quietly cleaned up the mess behind the scenes, and then allowed her to use his power to completely escape from Tianque.
Now he wants to use King Huai Geng to clear her name...
Jiang Daiyi was wearing a veil. She covered her lips with her hand and suddenly started coughing dryly.
Yun Qin supported Jiang Daiyi's waist and closed the curtain for her. He said, "The remaining poison hasn't been cleared yet, so you're coughing. You'll be fine once you cough it out."
After Si Wu had people clean the guest rooms of the inn, everyone went to rest.
King Huai Geng's men were everywhere, and even outside the post station there was a wanted poster for Jiang Daiyi.
Si Wu sent people to tear up the fake wanted posters, while Yun Qin and Jiang Daiyi returned to their respective rooms.
In the guest room of the inn, Jiang Daiyi was about to wash up and go to bed, but there was a knock on the door. She paused as she was about to get on the bed, looked in the direction of the outer room, then stood up, put on her robe and opened the door.
They were two maids. They bowed to Jiang Daiyi and said, "Miss Jiang, we are here to keep watch for you on the Master's orders. If you need anything, please call us."
When Jiang Daiyi saw that it was a maid, she felt disappointed for a moment. She actually thought it would be Yun Qin. She nodded and let the two maids in.
She said to the two maids, "There's no need to stand guard outside. There are two small couches here. You can sleep here."
The maid bowed, as was the custom in the palace, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, young lady."
Jiang Daiyi walked around the screen and returned to the inner room to lie down again. She looked at the fluttering gauze curtains with a heavy heart.
The weather was chilly, and Yun Qin, in his dark blue robe, was sitting by the window, writing a letter. After a moment, he put down his pen, sealed the envelope, and handed it to Si Wu who was waiting outside the window.
"Send someone back to Yanling. Use the best, no half-heartedness."
Mi Wu took it and disappeared into the night.
Yun Qin got up, closed the windows and prepared to go to sleep. Just as he reached the couch, there was a gentle knock on the door. He frowned and looked, thinking that Si Wu had returned, so he didn't put on his outer robe again.
Jiang Daiyi waited outside Yunqin's door, and only realized something was wrong after knocking on it.
What is she doing here when she is sleeping soundly?
Yunqin had just said those words to her a few days ago, and now she came to him in the middle of the night. This seemed too impatient.
Jiang Daiyi heard light footsteps coming from behind the door, getting closer and closer. She stepped back in panic, turned around and wanted to leave and return to her room.
Yun Qin opened the door, and the spring breeze, carrying the fragrance of the white flowers on Jiang Daiyi's body, blew across his robe. He called out to her.
"younger sister."
Jiang Daiyi's heartbeat quickened slightly. She turned around slightly and saw Yun Qinjingjun's face. She secretly complained to herself, why was he still like this, so calm and composed. When he saw her, he was only slightly puzzled, nothing else.
"I'm just passing by and will be back soon."
After Jiang Daiyi finished speaking, she turned around in a slightly flustered manner. The next moment, the cold fragrance of Yun Qin's body invaded her from behind, and she was put up by the waist and led into the room.
The door frame was tightly closed, leaving only the cold moonlight on the ground.
In the room.
Jiang Daiyi's ink-like eyes were slightly panicked. Her back was leaning against the door. Yun Qin lowered his eyes to look at her and said gently, "Sister, you came here so late at night, weren't you looking for me?"
Jiang Daiyi cleared her throat twice: "I just..."
"I'm just passing by, I know."
Seeing that she was still coughing, Yun Qin held her snow-white wrist, felt her pulse, and checked her pulse. He asked gently, "The remaining poison has been cleared, are you still not well?"
His aura lingered around her, unlike the pure protectiveness he had when they were children. Now, every word he said and every breath he exhaled carried a sense of aggression that was difficult to ignore.
Jiang Daiyi was trapped between Yunqin and the door, unable to move forward or backward, feeling extremely constrained. She raised her wrist to ask Yunqin to let go, "I'm fine now."
Yun Qin followed her strength and let her raise her hand, but when she was about to break free, he suddenly exerted force and trapped her hand between the door and his slender fingers.
Jiang Daiyi tensed her slender neck, which was glowing softly. Yun Qin's strength forced her to stand up slightly straighter.
She panicked and tried to move aside, but Yun Qin took another step forward, until they were almost touching. He said, "Your pulse is very fast."
When Jiang Daiyi heard this, her heart beat faster. Incomprehensible and complex emotions spread rapidly in her heart, making it difficult for her to control it at all.
She tried to find a reason to let Yunqin let her go, "I'm sleepy, I want to go back to my room to sleep."
Yun Qin said to her softly, "Just now you were knocking on the door, but I thought it was Si Wu. But when I opened the door, I saw you. I was very happy. I thought you figured it out, sister."
When he saw Jiang Daiyi just now, the faint light in her eyes, with a little panic, but also cautiously trying to get close to him, was enough to make him unable to suppress his joy. How could he allow her to tease him and then run away in a hurry?
Yun Qin's eyes were filled with affection, and his unparalleled appearance surpassed all the moonlight in the world. He gently coaxed Jiang Daiyi: "I know you came to find me. Since you are here, please stay with me, okay?"
Jiang Daiyi did come to find Yunqin, but she didn't think of staying. If she stayed, wouldn't it be admitting that she was moved?
Jiang Daiyi was not very old before she traveled through time, and she was completely unable to handle the situation before her. Yun Qin tapped Jiang Daiyi's five-fingered hand, slid it into her palm, held her hand, and pulled her away from the door.
Jiang Daiyi wasn't even sure whether the remaining poison in her body had been cleared out. She was in a trance for just a moment before Yun Qin carried her to the edge of the bed.
Yunqin gently placed her on the couch. Jiang Daiyi suddenly woke up after touching the quilt, but it was too late.
Jiang Daiyi's shoes and socks were taken off, and her feet felt slightly cold. Yun Qin sat on the edge of the couch and covered her with the quilt. He said, "Stay here with me tonight."
Jiang Daiyi didn't expect things to develop so quickly. She tucked her feet under the quilt, still feeling very uncomfortable. She said, "I want to go back to my own room."
Yun Qin didn't care much, "It's the same here. After your coming-of-age ceremony, I will be engaged to you."
Jiang Daiyi did not reject Yun Qin's approach these days, but she had not thought about getting engaged, nor did she want to get engaged so soon. After all, in this world, she was only fifteen years old.
Jiang Daiyi refused: "I don't want to get engaged for the time being."
A gloomy look flashed across Yun Qincha's eyes. He would give Jiang Daiyi some time to breathe and would not force her to accept him immediately, but engagement, and even marriage in the future, were things that were bound to happen between him and her.
There was nothing that couldn't be told to her in advance. After all, he had already sent a message and asked the people in the mansion to make arrangements.
Yun Qin removed the hairpins from Jiang Daiyi's hair. Her long black hair flowed down on either side of her face like a waterfall. He coaxed her to sleep, "Tomorrow you will come with me to heal the people. You should also give an explanation to the people of the world for all the rumors about you."
Jiang Daiyi was lying on the inside. Yunqin covered her with a quilt, turned and walked to the table, blew out the candle. In the darkness, Jiang Daiyi felt the quilt on the outside being lifted up, and Yunqin was sleeping beside her.
At this moment, they were sleeping on the same bed.
Jiang Daiyi just wanted to see Yun Qin tonight, but she didn't expect the situation to develop to this point.
From now on, she would no longer come to see Yunqin in the middle of the night, because Yunqin might take the excuse that she came to see her on her own initiative and lock her in his room at any time.
Jiang Daiyi's thoughts disappeared as she gradually felt sleepy.
The moonlight was mottled all night, and the glow of the sky gradually rose.
When Jiang Daiyi woke up, it was still dark.
The body beside her tightly covered her, his gentle breaths fanning her neck, and a long arm draped across her slender waist, pressing her so hard that she felt a little breathless.
Jiang Daiyi was slightly startled and struggled to break free from Yunqin who was holding his arms around her waist, trying to pull the quilt open a little.
Her subtle movement woke up Yun Qin behind her, and the hand she had just freed restrained her again and tightened.
Jiang Daiyi was already having trouble breathing, and this kind of force made her cry out in discomfort.
"You just fell asleep at the hour of Yin, are you getting up now?"
Yun Qin's clear and slow voice sounded from within the curtain, with a strong sense of weariness.
Jiang Daiyi turned around, her nostrils filled with the scent of Yun Qin. She replied a little awkwardly, "It's okay. I want to get up now. I have to go detoxify and treat the people today."
Yun Qin smoothed the few strands of disobedient black hair behind Jiang Daiyi's ears, lifted the quilt and got on the bed. She didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what they were doing. It was just like they did when they were children, sleeping together. After all, she was afraid of the dark.
The maid waiting outside heard the noise of someone getting up and came in to serve.
Several maids went in and out of the inner room silently and orderly, carrying water to help Jiang Daiyi wash and dress.
Yunqin put on an outer robe and went out of the inner room, sitting by the carved window. Another servant brought him water for washing his face.
The red window was slightly opened, and spring rain began to fall outside. Yun Qin wiped his face and picked up a piano score to read.
Soon, Jiang Daiyi had packed up. Yun Qin put down the music sheet, stood up, and extended his hand to Jiang Daiyi, "Come here."
Jiang Daiyi walked towards Yunqin and asked, "Shall we go?"
Yun Qin held Jiang Daiyi's hand, looked up at the rain outside the window, and seemed to be able to see through people's hearts in his words.
He reminded Jiang Daiyi in advance: "When you go out these few days, you must wear a veil. After this human disaster is resolved, you can reveal your identity. As for you, I will give an explanation to the people. They may not necessarily appreciate your help, but I will protect you."
Jiang Daiyi understood that it was easy to spread rumors but difficult to refute them. However, the worst that could happen to her was that she could just hide. When the storm died down, who would still remember her?
