Chapter 321 Being caught by someone? I miss you so much
"Who is it?"
Ji Qingwu walked along the carved rosewood board wall to the door and asked in a low voice.
There was only the sound of the wind outside, and no one answered.
She held her breath, put her ear close to the door, and tried to distinguish the noise.
The man at the door noticed her caution and said, "I'm a farmhand in the backyard. The scroll jar in the master's room has cracks, and some of the scrolls have gotten damp. We need to take them out to dry."
The voice sounded like that of a young man, but his throat was hoarse and rough when he spoke.
Do you want to take the books from the scroll jar?
Ji Qingwu remembered that he had just seen in the house a scroll jar with a pattern of winning the laurel wreath in the sky painted on it, and there was indeed an obvious crack on the right side.
A light flashed in her eyes, she took a deep breath, and opened the door.
She held onto the door with her wrist, and as the man showed his head, the silver-white powder hidden under her wide sleeves flew out all at once.
Coming here late at night to pick up books and dry them? Sunbathing in the moonlight?
This statement is full of mistakes and omissions, and it sounds like a fraud.
While the medicinal powder was still glowing under the light in the room, Ji Qingwu raised his eyes and looked at the person who came in.
At a cursory glance, the man appeared to be tall but plain looking.
At this moment, a strange gust of wind suddenly came and blew all the powder out the door, perfectly avoiding the man, and the powder did not stick to his body at all.
The wind blew for a long time, causing her white sleeves and skirt to sway, but the man's gray shirt did not move at all.
Seeing that the powder had no effect, Ji Qingwu wanted to run inside and opened his mouth to call Wei Tongyou to come out for help, but he was quickly covered his mouth and nose with his big hands.
Being held hostage, Ji Qingwu's eyes rolled back and forth. How could his disguise skills be seen through in such an instant?
He kicked the door with his long legs and closed it easily.
Ji Qingwu calmly thought about how to deal with it.
Seeing that she was quiet and not struggling, he let go of her hand.
The man's eyes were glued to her face. After a long pause, he whispered in her ear, "Miss Hanzhang, we haven't seen each other for just a few days, and we feel so strange to each other."
Ji Qingwu's eyes were shocked. Could this man be Han Zhang's lover?
I didn't meet anyone else along the way, but after entering the house, I met the person who was most familiar with this maid.
The sounds of people washing hands in the inner room gradually became quieter. Wei Tongyou should be coming out soon. Can the two of them work together to subdue this farmhand who does the rough work?
But this man is strong and doesn't look like he can be easily defeated...
Ji Qingwu made up his mind that he should keep the person in front of him calm and not expose himself.
The man got closer to her and pressed her passionately against the wooden frame that separated the flower hall from the main house.
"Don't you miss me at all?"
The close distance made Ji Qingwu alert. She turned her head away, unwilling to look him in the eye.
He deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I miss you so much."
Soon, Ji Qingwu's eyebrows were twisted together, not because she felt uncomfortable with the intimacy and ambiguity in the words.
Instead, she suddenly felt that this person was indescribably familiar.
Ji Qingwu raised his chin, sniffed gently a few times, and then his eyebrows relaxed and then frowned.
There was no familiar smell on him, only the damp smell of wood chips, as if he had been doing carpentry work outside for a long time.
It's not the out-of-reach ambergris scent.
Ji Qingwu pursed his lips, annoyed that he thought of him at such a critical moment.
Zhao Mingyan saw her nostrils flaring as she sniffed his scent, her eyes full of smiles.
He deliberately concealed his aura today, and there was no way he would reveal his identity in such a detail.
But judging from her actions, she wanted to confirm his identity by identifying the smell, which showed that she had begun to doubt him.
After just a short time of spending time together, I was able to vaguely guess his identity. It's not so much that I have a keen observation ability, but rather that I am already familiar enough with him.
Zhao Mingyan lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell from the top of her head to her hands hanging at her sides.
Something shiny flashed by.
The awareness of being on guard is also good.
Ji Qingwu noticed that the man in front of her was slightly distracted, so she nimbly squeezed out from the gap under his arms that were supporting the wooden frame.
Then, she turned her back to him and, with her back held high, tried to imitate the voice of Han Zhang that she heard in the kitchen.
"The master will be back soon, you should get out quickly. What if someone sees you?"
Not only did Ji Qingwu speak in a coquettish tone, he also stomped his feet.
But she was trying to hide the movement of her hands.
Her hands were on her waist, and the needles on her fingertips gleamed silver.
Zhao Mingyan stood behind her, his lips curled up and his thick eyebrows curved into a gentle arc.
He acted with her and said, "The master won't be back for a while, and he's still at the Song family holding a funeral. It's rare for us to have time to meet, and I just want to stay with you for a while longer."
His voice was still hoarse like sand, but his tone was soft and pleasant to the ear.
Ji Qingwu didn't know why, but his heart began to beat fast when he heard that.
She said, "Let's meet tomorrow night, okay?"
"No." He refused flatly.
Ji Qingwu simply had two more silver needles on her fingertips. This scoundrel was so difficult to deal with, so she decided to get rid of him in her own way first.
Then the man said hesitantly: "Unless..."
Ji Qingwu's ears pricked up and he temporarily hid the silver needle back into his sleeve.
Asked: "Unless what?"
"Unless you stay with me all night tomorrow and relieve my longing for you."
Ji Qingwu immediately said: "No problem!"
Anyway, she won't be at the Su's house tomorrow night, so it's only right for her to agree to it now and persuade this person to leave.
She turned around and said with a smile: "We'll meet tomorrow night. You should go back to your room and sleep first. You've been busy all day and you've worked hard."
As she spoke, she walked to the door frame and signaled him with her eyes to leave quickly.
He urged again: "Why don't you leave?"
Zhao Mingyan looked at her quietly for a while and said, "Come here."
Ji Qingwu suddenly felt a chill on his back.
A person's appearance and voice may change, but the tone of command and the unquestionable aura of majesty will not change.
If it were anyone else, she wouldn't be able to recognize the person in front of her.
But she had heard these two words too many times.
In the Qinzheng Hall, in the Wutong Garden, in the Zhaoyang Hall...
Ji Qingwu walked towards him slowly, and the more he walked, the more numb his scalp became. This man must be the emperor.
She trusted her intuition, and just as she put her mind at ease, she picked it up again.
Emperor Wu Su showed up at the Su's house late at night, even in disguise. Why did he come?
At this moment, the sound of the bamboo curtain being lifted attracted the attention of the two.
Wei Tongyou came out of the inner room rubbing her hands. She was stunned to see a man in the hall through the hollow wooden board.
Ji Qingwu looked into her eyes, raised his left eyebrow at her, and then shook his head slightly, telling her not to act rashly.
Wei Tongyou didn't know whether he understood or not, and nodded solemnly.
With a third person present, Ji Qingwu couldn't reveal the identity of Emperor Wu Su...
