Jiangzhou, the breeze is intoxicating.
Ning Qian and the other two carefully tidied up the quiet courtyard they bought in Jiangzhou. Then, based on the information they had learned after arriving in Jiangzhou, they found the most lively restaurant in Jiangzhou - Qingfengzui.
At this moment, the three of them were sitting in a great position by the window.
There was a sense of leisure in Li Jing's eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, as if he was very satisfied with the environment.
Zhongli Mingchuan was much more excited. He loved wine, and Qingfengzui's wine was famous for its delicious taste in Jiangzhou.
After five years of the three of them being together day and night, Li Jing had become much more calm and confident compared to the initial caution he had shown in front of her. He was also more talkative and acted like a graceful and gentle gentleman when he walked outside.
Zhongli Mingchuan, wearing a sword and a blue suit, should be a cold and ruthless hero, but now he is the most talkative person among the three of them.
"Qianqian, Jiangzhou is famous throughout the entire Jiangnan region for its wine! Countless scholars, talented men and beautiful women have come to Jiangzhou just for this sip of wine."
"Today, the three of us must taste Jiangzhou's most famous Ruoxia wine."
Zhongli Mingchuan looked impatient.
Ning Qian smiled slightly, her eyes full of intelligence, and she said softly, "The water from the Ruo River is used to make very strong wine, commonly known as Ruoxia wine. It is indeed famous. I heard about it when I was in the capital before."
"Today, my brother and I will definitely drink with Brother Zhongli to our heart's content."
“Haha, good!”
Zhongli Mingchuan laughed heartily.
When the waiter brought the wine, Li Jing took it and skillfully filled the glasses of the three people.
The three of them raised their glasses, drank them all in one gulp, looking extremely happy.
After lunch, the three of them prepared to go upstairs to the private room because there would be a geisha performance at Qingfengzui later. Whenever they went to a place, they naturally had to experience all the delicious food, fun and beautiful things.
The trip was worthwhile.
When Ning Qian stood up, she put on her veil with graceful and gentle movements. She followed Li Jing and Zhongli Mingchuan up the stairs.
Just as he reached the second floor, the door of a private room suddenly opened. The moment Li Jing saw the person coming out, his heart seemed to be suddenly pulled to his throat by an invisible big hand.
However, he was a man who had experienced many storms after all, and he suppressed the momentary panic. The muscles on his face tensed for a moment, and then he regained his usual calmness. His eyes were as calm as water, without showing any abnormality.
When he was about to pass Jun Zechen, he turned around without hesitation and quickly but gently picked up Ning Qian.
He pursed his lips slightly, his eyes firm yet with a hint of concern.
"Sister, your leg is injured. Let me carry you up to the third floor."
Ning Qian was stunned for a moment, a hint of surprise flashed across her face, then she caught a glimpse of a tall figure from the corner of her eye, and instantly reacted, hurriedly leaning her head on Li Jing's shoulder.
She curled up, blocking everyone's view of her.
Zhongli Mingchuan was stunned and full of confusion.
Huh? Qianqian's leg was injured? How come he didn't know?
Jun Zechen didn't pay attention to what others did and went straight downstairs.
After taking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.
Jun Zechen frowned slightly, and his nostrils flared slightly.
This taste...
There was a faint, sweet fragrance that he thought he would never smell again in his life.
Jun Zechen's eyes instantly became deep, as if they could suck people in.
He turned around, his eyes sharp as torches, staring straight at the gentle man holding a woman whom he had just met when he passed by. His eyes were full of inquiry and doubt.
Anshun looked at the unusual expression of His Majesty. He had been keeping his head down, and now he shifted his gaze to the gentle man.
"Huh? Why does this man's back... why does it look so much like Doctor Jin?" An Shun murmured softly.
His brows unconsciously frowned, his eyes narrowed into slits, and he tried hard to confirm his judgment.
Your Majesty may not know Imperial Physician Jin, but Anshun is very familiar with the people around the Queen, not to mention the Imperial Physician who had helped the Queen with her pregnancy.
Although Anshun spoke in a very low voice, Jun Zechen still heard it.
His eyes were instantly filled with thick ink, the darkness gradually deepened, and his deep gaze seemed to be able to devour everything.
After a while, the gentle man holding a woman disappeared from sight, and Jun Zechen turned and walked out of the restaurant.
After leaving the restaurant, he stopped, stood straight, and with his lips pursed, he immediately ordered in a cold tone, "Send the secret guards to investigate."
At this moment, Jun Zechen had an incredible guess in his mind, but this guess was so shocking that he himself did not dare to confirm it easily.
After all, since there are people like Bai Yingyue in the world, there is no guarantee that there won’t be people who exude the same fragrance as her.
It was Doctor Hu who personally diagnosed that she had died.
but.
What if there was someone proficient in medicine to help her...
"Yes, Third Master." Anshun responded in a crisp and clear voice.
-
When Ning Qian and Li Jing arrived at the private room, their faces were as solemn as dark clouds, without a trace of relaxation.
Zhongli Mingchuan looked at the two of them with a confused look on his face, completely unaware of what was going on.
"Zhongli, you are a skilled martial artist. Take Qianqian back to the courtyard and pack your luggage. We will leave Jiangzhou immediately. I will not go back. We will meet at the Peach Blossom Pavilion outside the city."
Li Jing's panic had been completely replaced by extreme rationality.
He really didn't expect that His Majesty had also come to Jiangzhou. Just now, His Majesty did not find out the truth, and it seemed that he did not suspect Qianqian.
