Chapter 123 Brother and Sister Meet
Huang Dechang: "According to the guards in the courtyard, after Jiang Si had dinner with them at night, they never saw her again."

Hearing this, Pei Xuanling's eyes turned slightly, and he analyzed the situation calmly and calmly, "Now the four gates of the Gongyuan are still sealed, outsiders can't get in, and people inside can't get out, then she must still be in the Gongyuan!"

Therefore, Pei Xuanling immediately ordered the guards to scatter throughout the Gongyuan, looking for someone secretly.

He himself took Huang Dechang and two personal guards, and he was also looking for someone in the tribute courtyard.

At this time, the candidates' exams were over, and everyone finally relaxed. Most of the candidates had already rested.

In a courtyard shed to the south, a rather handsome man in a jade-colored brocade robe lit a candle in the numbered room.

There is a picture of good and bad gossip on his desk. The man sometimes looks up at the starry sky and observes the sky at night.

Sometimes pinch fingers to calculate, unpredictable.

Sometimes looking at the gossip diagram in front of him, his face is sad.
Finally, the man sighed sadly.

The younger sister has been weak since she was a child, and she has been considered a confidante since she was a little witch.

Before coming to Beijing, he made a fortune for his younger sister, and calculated that she was no longer alive.

It's just that he always had a little illusion that she was still in this world.

With this thought in mind, he once again counted the little sister's fate this time.

However, this time it was calculated that the younger sister had passed away, and she must have died in the East Palace long ago.

Just when the man looked sad, a guard walked up to the man, "Jiang Chongjin, someone is looking for you."

"Who is looking for me?" Jiang Chongjin looked up in surprise.

"That man is waiting for you by the stone table outside the courtyard shed, you will know if you go and have a look." The guard collected the money and helped to deliver the message.

Anyway, after the exam is over, the management of the Tribute Academy is not so strict.

Jiang Chongjin put away the gossip map suspiciously, and followed the guards to the stone table outside the courtyard shed.

"Nah, that guard is looking for you." The guard brought him back and walked away.

Jiang Chongjin walked up to the stone table and asked cautiously, "Who are you?"

"Big brother, take a good look at who I am?" Jiang Shishi looked up at Jiang Chongjin.

Hearing the familiar "big brother", Jiang Chongjin looked carefully at the guard's face.

Then, he realized that the guard in front of him looked familiar.

Curved willow eyebrows, a straight nose, and a small cherry mouth.
"Xiaoshi, it's you?!" Jiang Chongjin was overjoyed at first, but after realizing it, he couldn't help being shocked, his pupils trembled, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

Because just now he found out that Xiaoshi was no longer in this world.

Jiang Shishi saw the panic in Jiang Chongjin's eyes. He remembered that Jiang Chongjin in the book knew a lot about metaphysics, so he probably guessed something.

So, she deliberately imitated the original owner's demeanor, and asked reproachfully: "Long time no see, big brother doesn't even recognize me?"

"My sister, I still recognize her." Jiang Chongjin pointed to the sky, "It's just that it was too dark, and you disguised yourself as a man, and your figure changed a lot, so I didn't recognize it for a while."

The woman in front of her, except for her facial features and Xiaoshi's, was quite different in figure.

Although the words and deeds are somewhat similar, they seem to be more lively and cheerful than the original poem.

The key Xiaoshi used to be thin and weak, but the Xiaoshi in front of her is white and fat, but her figure is quite well-proportioned.

Although the person is still the same person, it looks more like a new core?
"." Jiang Shishi gave Jiang Chongjin a reproachful look, "I came to the Gongyuan with the prince, but the Gongyuan is full of men, and it is inconvenient for me to follow him as a woman, so I pretended to be a male guard."

"It's so late, can you come out alone? Can someone accompany you?" Jiang Chongjin looked around, but saw no one else.

"It's okay, I'll bring you something to eat, and I'll be back in a while." Jiang Shishi opened the food box on the stone table, and took out the two dishes in the food box.

"Big brother, you must have not eaten well in the last few days of the imperial examination, so I asked the kitchen to make West Lake vinegar fish and braised prawns. I remember you like these two dishes the most."

Jiang Chongjin: "." Hearing my sister's gentle and considerate words, and looking at the two fragrant meals on the table, I couldn't help feeling warm in my heart.

"Let me tell you, there is also a West Lake in the capital, and these fish and shrimps are all caught from the West Lake in the capital." Jiang Shishi handed the bowl containing white rice to Jiang Chongjin, "Taste it quickly, otherwise it won't taste good if it gets cold. "

Jiang Chongjin took the rice bowl and ate fish and shrimp.

Jiang Shishi stared at him, "Is it delicious?"

Jiang Chongjin swallowed the food in his mouth, nodded and said, "It's a familiar taste, I didn't expect to be able to eat such authentic hometown dishes in the capital."

Immediately afterwards, while Jiang Chongjin was having a meal, the brothers and sisters each talked about the past few years.

Jiang Chongjin was talking about family matters, "By the way, the second child is now studying martial arts at the martial arts academy."

"Really? That's really great!" Even though Jiang Shishi had learned about this from the book, she still complimented her with surprise.

After Jiang Chongjin finished talking about the family affairs, he asked: "Xiaoshi, I remember you were very thin before, why are you so fat now?"

"." Jiang Shishi bit her lip, and said sadly, "It's all because I was ignorant, too pursuing thinness for beauty, and deliberately dieting. As a result, I suffered from anorexia last winter. Not only was I skinny, but I almost died in the end."

"Fortunately, my aunt took care of me in the palace, and I was lucky enough to survive. Since then, I don't care about that, and the most important thing is my health."

Jiang Chongjin nodded after hearing this, and said in agreement, "That's natural."

At the same time, he was thinking, did he worry too much before?

Not only does the person in front of him look the same as Xiaoshi, but he also knows what his favorite food is, so who else is he?

Xiaoshi was worried about his bad food in the Gongyuan, so she specially brought him food at night, but he wondered if she had changed the core, which made him feel guilty.

Presumably, Xiaoshi has noble people to help him, and he is the one who miscalculated.

I heard from Xiaoshi just now that she almost died last winter.

And he once told Xiaoshi's fortune, and he calculated that Xiaoshi would have a life-and-death calamity last winter.

It is estimated that the aunt is Xiaoshi's noble person, who helped Xiaoshi escape the catastrophe and regain her new life!

Jiang Chongjin really didn't eat well in the past few days, and the food was delicious, the key was that Xiaoshi sent it, he was not willing to waste it, and ate it clean.

After he finished eating, and the siblings had almost chatted, Jiang Shishi put the bowls and chopsticks into the food box.

"Big brother, it's getting late, I have to go back, you should go back to the courtyard shed to have a good rest."

Jiang Chongjin wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief, then took out a purse from his sleeve pocket, and handed it to Jiang Shishi.

Jiang Shishi didn't answer, just looked at the purse and asked, "What is this?"

Jiang Chongjin handed the purse closer, "Here is 500 taels of silver, you can spend it!"

Jiang Shishi: "So many? Where did they come from?"

The original owner's father's annual salary was only 60 taels of silver, and Jiang Chongjin paid 500 taels of silver, which was a huge sum of money for the Jiang family.

Moreover, the eccentric father of the original owner put all his heart on Mrs. Xu Xian's family, so he would not give the eldest son much money.

Jiang Chongjin: "Don't worry, this money comes from the right way. It contains the money that my father gave me to go to Beijing for the exam, and the subsidy from the imperial court for those of us who raise people. After the death of my mother, I left several villages and shops. Every year There is no shortage of money."

"Since you have worked so hard to save it, then I can't take it anymore." Jiang Shishi didn't answer.

"Besides, the capital costs a lot, and you may have to take the imperial examination later on. If you get fame and become an official in Beijing, you still have to buy a house in Beijing. There are many places to spend money."

Jiang Chongjin: "I heard that the expenses inside the palace are tens or hundreds of times more expensive than those outside, so you should keep the money."

While speaking, he took Jiang Shishi's hand, ready to put the purse into Jiang Shishi's hand.

Jiang Shishi dodged it, and took out a lake-blue purse from her sleeve pocket.

"Big brother, let me tell you the truth, I came here today, and besides bringing you food, I also prepared 1000 taels of silver for you."

"Let me tell you, I have silver flowers in the palace. I can't accept your banknote. You should accept mine."

Jiang Chongjin: "That won't work, I am an older brother, how can I ask for my sister's money."

Ever since, the brothers and sisters pushed and shoved each other at the stone table in order to show compassion for each other.

It's just that Jiang Chongjin is a man after all, and no woman can save face in this regard.

Jiang Shishi pulled Jiang Chongjin's sleeve and took the opportunity to stuff the purse into Jiang Chongjin's sleeve pocket.

Jiang Chongjin wanted to return the purse, but because his sister was a woman, men and women were different after all, so it was not easy to cuddle.

He had no choice but to throw his purse on the ground, "I won't ask for this banknote, otherwise, wouldn't I be a softie!"

In the end, neither of the brothers and sisters was willing to accept the other's banknotes. One was more determined than the other, and the two had no choice but to give up.

**
"Your Highness, look, there is a guard on the stone table under the tree, is it Jiang Si?" Huang Dechang not far away pointed in a direction, "There seems to be a man next to her, who looks similar to Jiang Si Pretty similar."

"I remember, Jiang Si didn't keep saying that she wanted to meet her brother. Before, she was afraid of affecting her brother's exam. Now that the exam is over, the brother and sister can meet again."

This Jiang Meiren didn't say hello to her brother in advance when she came out to see her brother, which made His Highness worried, and took them to search the Gongyuan at night.

Your Highness was tired all day, and was supposed to rest.

In the end, I spent more than half an hour looking for Jiang Si. Isn't this a delay?

"." Pei Xuanling looked at the brothers and sisters who were not far away, "Since the person has been found, you can leave a few people to watch and go back to the yard to rest alone."

Huang Dechang: "Yes."

After ordering the servants, Pei Xuanling turned around and walked back.

However, he hadn't walked a few steps when he heard a loud noise coming from the Gongyuan, as if something great had happened.

The next moment, a guard rushed towards him.

The guard ran up to the prince, gasped and said, "Your Highness, no. It's not good. Go southeast of the Gongyuan. It's flooded."

Pei Xuanling: "." Isn't the southeast direction the direction where his yard is located?
