Yan Zhuo paused for a moment while getting dressed. "Well, I have to go out of town for some military business. I think I should be back before dark. It's still early, you should get some more sleep."
Jiang Ying frowned, feeling that Yan Zhuo was not telling her the truth.
She actually has a strong sense of self-esteem and doesn't care that much about others. Subconsciously, she wants to let him do whatever he wants, since it doesn't bother her at all.
But when he thought of Yue Weimo's letter, he felt uncomfortable again and sat up from the bed angrily!
The bed was covered with curtains, casting a smoky grey shadow. Yan Zhuo thought Jiang Ying had suddenly found his conscience and offered to serve him. He laughed contentedly and happily, "Ying'er, there's no need. I'm not that delicate. From now on..."
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Ying had already pulled aside the curtain and got out of bed, without even putting on shoes, and sat on the edge of the bed, staring at him.
The latter makes my scalp tingle...
Yan Zhuo sighed helplessly and took the initiative to explain, "Alright, alright, don't be like this, it was me who didn't tell the truth. I'm not going to the army, I'm going to Xinghua Village."
"Is there any progress on the matter of the Gu curse?" This was Jiang Ying's first subconscious reaction.
Of course, the fate of the family is more important than being angry with Yan Zhuo. Recently, she has often returned to the Duke's Mansion and always felt an indescribable feeling.
I wanted to persuade my grandmother to move, but she said that it was the mansion given by the late emperor, representing the Jiang family's century-old foundation, and it could not be moved easily.
Moreover, she was already an old lady half buried in the ground, so she was not afraid of these things. Instead, she asked her eldest brother, second brother, and third brother to buy houses outside one after another, and asked them not to go back often unless necessary.
Even so, there are always small troubles around the three brothers, not to mention Jiang Ying. The mess in the palace these two days seems to have nothing to do with her on the surface, but if she doesn't handle it well, won't she suffer?
The Queen Mother also fell ill. She was probably angry and frightened by what happened to Concubine Zhao. She also had a tumor in her brain. Anger caused her blood pressure to rise, her blood flow to accelerate, and the tumor cells to become active. Naturally, the disease progressed very rapidly!
If it weren't for the emperor's announcement that Jiang Ying was exhausted, she would feel embarrassed. I'm afraid that even if she couldn't deal with the empress dowager, she would have to go and treat her.
There is no peace and quiet at all.
"I'll go with you!" Thinking of this, Jiang Ying said anxiously.
There's no reason to say no, I haven't even thought of a good reason yet...
In order to prevent Yan Zhuo from refusing, Jiang Ying even stood up and jumped towards Yan Zhuo.
The man's quick instinct made him open his arms quickly, and immediately hugged the sweet and soft girl tightly. He was startled, but at the same time, he was overjoyed and helpless, "You naughty girl! What if you fall?"
"Will you let me fall?" Jiang Ying wrapped her legs around his waist, raised them slightly, gave him a seductive look, and had an ambiguous posture.
Yan Zhuo's throat rolled unconsciously, "Yingying..."
Jiang Ying, "Take me with you."
Yan Zhuo said, "I don't let you go because the situation is unclear and I'm worried you might get into danger."
"I don't care, I just want to go." It's better to be in danger with two people than to struggle alone.
Jiang Ying hugged the man's neck and acted coquettishly, while deliberately rubbing his little cutie.
Sure enough, this trick was very effective. Not only did the latter's eyes darken instantly, but his ears also turned red.
Jiang Ying deliberately squeezed her legs tighter, "Will you take it? If not, you'll regret it."
Yan Zhuo immediately felt that his mind was not clear again!
…
What’s funny is that when Yan Zhuo’s arrow was on the string and he couldn’t help but shoot, he heard the sound of his monkey son kicking the bed at the right time.
Boom! — Boom! — Boom! —
The little guy was weak, and no matter how he struggled, he could hardly make any loud noise unless he fell off the bed by himself. So he lifted his legs up with all his strength, almost standing up his lower body, and then hit the bed hard, in order to stop his parents from doing embarrassing things so early in the morning.
[Wow…it’s so hot, so hot~]
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have slept with Mother last night... Ouch! No, Mother is mine. It's my shameless father who's in his twenties and wants to snatch her from his child, who's not even a year old yet!"
Yan Zhuo, "..."
Did this kid learn face changing in his previous life?
It changes too fast!
I don’t know who it was yesterday, but he said in his heart with great confidence that he was reborn, and the combined age of his two lives was 21, which was the same as his.
Therefore, in the future, you can be a father and son in front of outsiders, but in private, you can be good brothers, and if you agree to him, the "grudges" between them will be written off!
And yet, I just said yesterday that he's not even one year old today? Is he a poor little baby whose mother was taken away by a bad father?
At this moment, Yan Zhuo only has two words in his heart: Hehe~
In order to punish his son for his duplicity, Yan Zhuo decisively packed up Jiang Ying and took him away.
Didn't he say he was robbing? Then he should have done it thoroughly!
Jiang Ying shrugged and expressed helplessness at the father and son's childish fight over the lollipop, but it was right for them to go without their monkey son.
Danger is everywhere, and a home guarded by the Demon Guards is much safer.
If it weren't for the big problem of solving the curse, she would not be willing to go out.
After eating a few leftover mochi cakes Jiang Ying had made last night, Lao Hei worked tirelessly pulling the carriage. When they were about to leave the city gate, Jiang Ying said, "Wait, Yan Zhuo, I think we should call Yue Weimo along. Like Kunan, she knows a little about formations and feng shui. She might be useful."
She didn't say it directly, but Yue Weimo saw that Yan Zhuo was going to be in big trouble.
Having such concerns will make you feel restricted when you get there.
In other words, the Gu curse was inherently sinister, and it was impossible to say that there was no risk involved. But since Yue Weimo could see it, there might be a way to counteract it, so after careful consideration, Jiang Ying decided to give it to her.
Yan Zhuo didn't know Yue Weimo, but he knew that Yue Weimo's father Yue Xuanfeng was no ordinary person.
With the idea of bringing a companion to Jiang Ying, he readily agreed and asked Qi Ren to invite her personally. This way, even if Yue Xuanfeng knew about it, he would not stop his little daughter from going out.
After a while, Yue Weimo, dressed in black and looking like a black crow, appeared happily.
Jiang Ying looked her up and down, dumbfounded. "Are you... going to compete with the night to see who's darker, playing hide-and-seek?"
Yue Weimo naturally boarded the carriage and plopped down next to Jiang Ying, her chin raised proudly. "Sister Jiang, you don't know that black can ward off evil. Actually, I had already figured out that you would come looking for me, so I wasn't surprised at all. However, with you here, the unlucky prince's bad luck has dissipated a lot. It's amazing!"
