Chapter 323: Trust Your People (Part 1)
Even so, Cui Hejin treated her gently and restrainedly.
Jiang Zhiluo's face turned red.
His body was completely limp.
After a long time, Cui Hejin let go of her slightly.
Jiang Zhiluo collapsed in Cui Hejin's arms, gasping heavily.
Cui Hejin gently stroked her back to help her calm her breathing.
There was a dark and captivating aura in his eyes.
Even at this moment, he wished he could hold the person in his arms deep in his heart, watching over her all the time, rather than always worrying about her getting hurt.
I'm always worried that she might have done something dangerous again.
Jiang Zhiluo leaned in Cui Hejin's arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
It turns out that he has this side to him. He is not as cold and indifferent as usual, nor as gentle as jade, but strong and domineering.
It’s really not noticeable and hard to imagine on ordinary days.
Cui Hejin held her in his arms and gently rubbed her hair.
After a long while, Jiang Zhiluo whispered, "I want to drink some water."
Cui Hejin then carried her to the edge of the bed and sat down, pouring her some water.
Make sure the water temperature is just right.
Jiang Zhiluo was really thirsty at this moment, and drank the whole glass of water in one gulp.
At this moment, her icy and snow-white cheeks were still flushed, like the morning glow.
Her eyebrows were gorgeous, bright and charming, and even her lips looked blood-red because of what she had just seen.
When he looked up at Cui Hejin, he felt extremely embarrassed, and looked as if he wanted to say something but was too shy to do so.
Cui Hejin's eyes darkened again.
She looked like this, making him want to hide her.
After drinking the water, Jiang Zhiluo calmed her heartbeat and whispered, "I should go back now!"
Jiang Zhiluo actually looked at Cui Hejin with an expression of reluctance to leave.
"Wait a moment!"
"Um"
Jiang Zhiluo blinked and looked at Cui Hejin in confusion.
Cui Hejin reached out and tidied up her messy hair.
The movements are gentle and focused.
Jiang Zhiluo was a little dazed when she saw his expression which was as beautiful as an ink painting.
After fixing Jiang Zhiluo's hair, Cui Hejin said, "It's done."
"I'll take you back!"
Jiang Zhiluo nodded.
Cui Hejin changed into a purple-black outfit, which gave her a noble and mysterious look.
As they walked along the road, Jiang Zhiluo seemed to have thought of something and said, "I'll pack up in the next few days and go to Southern Xinjiang."
Cui Hejin said gently, "Okay."
Cui Hejin naturally accompanied Jiang Zhiluo.
Jiang Zhiluo understood what Cui Hejin meant and said, "Then I'll come find you in a few days."
Cui Hejin said: "I'll pick you up!"
"good."
Jiang Zhiluo looked at Cui Hejin reluctantly for a while, waved to him, and then went into the house.
Jiang Zhiluo didn't see Qiao Mengmeng.
However, when Nanny Lin saw Jiang Zhiluo, she hurried over and asked, "Cousin, you're not sleeping in the room?"
Nanny Lin thought Jiang Zhiluo was asleep.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "I just happened to be out for something."
"Where's Mengmeng?"
"Miss Qiao was sent to the academy early in the morning. Since you were not awake, she did not disturb you."
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "Yes, there's not many people in the mansion. Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince out?"
Nanny Lin looked around and whispered, "Something big happened last night. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left before dawn. Is there something urgent?"
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Madam Lin, you have a wide range of sources. Do you know what big thing happened?"
Nanny Lin was shocked when she looked at her cousin.
Nanny Lin whispered, "I heard that a general in the enemy camp died. Although they blocked the news, I heard it was true."
"Everyone was very happy after hearing the news. They wondered if the soldiers would stop attacking the city."
"Everyone wants to live under the rule of the Crown Prince, not be controlled by that Southern Emperor. That Southern Emperor is not a wise ruler."
Jiang Zhiluo nodded. It seemed that Yun Luoxiao also knew that Gongsun Wu was dead.
No one knows who killed him.
Even if we know that she was the one who killed him, we can't find any evidence.
It's okay even if I'm suspected.
Jiang Zhiluo originally wanted to give the play script she wrote to the storyteller and ask him to clarify everything for the Wei family.
But now is not the time.
Jiang Zhiluo knew that Yun Luoxiao had to go deal with these things and would not be back for a while.
She bought some herbs and prepared some medicine, planning to take it with her when she went to southern Xinjiang.
Yun Luoxiao came back in the evening and wanted to see Jiang Zhiluo.
The two met in the study.
Yun Luoxiao looked at Jiang Zhiluo, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Just ask whatever you want to ask!"
Yun Luoxiao pinched his brows and asked softly, "Did you kill Gongsun Wu?"
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, "I killed him."
After a pause, Jiang Zhiluo asked seriously, "Are you afraid of me?"
Normal superiors would also be wary of her.
Afraid of being killed by her.
When Yun Luoxiao heard this, he frowned fiercely, "What are you thinking!"
"But if you take risks like this, what if you get hurt or something happens?"
"At least tell me when you do it, and I can send someone to help you."
Hearing Yun Luoxiao's words, Jiang Zhiluo slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, she was really afraid of supporting a king who would be wary of the Wei family.
But fortunately, Yun Luoxiao is not that kind of person.
Just like his father, the crown prince, he trusts people he employs and does not employ people he does not trust.
Yun Luoxiao dares to trust his subordinates.
Moreover, even if he was punishing someone, he would only do so after obtaining evidence. He had a legitimate reason and acted based on evidence, never resorting to crooked means.
This is also the reason why Jiang Zhiluo trusts Yun Luoxiao.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "If I told you I was going to kill Gongsun Wu in the middle of the night, you would stop me."
Yun Luoxiao was silent for a moment.
That's true.
"Gongsun Wu is surrounded by experts, are you really not injured?"
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Maybe Gongsun Wu had offended quite a few people, and someone happened to want to kill her, so when the masters were fighting, I took the opportunity to escape."
Yun Luoxiao naturally didn't doubt Jiang Zhiluo's words, "That's good."
Jiang Zhiluo seemed to be thinking about something and said, "Chinese New Year is coming soon. I plan to go home in a few days and visit. I won't be in Jiangzhou for the time being."
"I'll leave Mengmeng in your care."
Although Yun Luoxiao felt a little disappointed after hearing these words.
But Yun Luoxiao also knew that Jiang Zhiluo was free.
I also know that Jiang Zhiluo is now married to Cui Hejin, the former prince of Duke Cui’s mansion.
He was also once a brilliant man in the capital.
"Don't worry, Mengmeng, I will take good care of it."
Jiang Zhiluo took out some more bottles and jars.
"These are some medicines I prepared during this period. They have instructions and directions on them. Please take care of yourself and stay safe."
Jiang Zhiluo did not tell Yun Luoxiao where she was really going.
Yun Luoxiao knew Jiang Zhiluo's medical skills, so he naturally knew that these medicines were more effective than the ones used in the palace.
He felt slightly touched.
I wanted to say a lot of things, but in the end I didn't say them.
When something like that happened to the Wei family when they were young, the trajectory of him and her changed.
It would be inappropriate to express my concern even if I did.
