Chapter 54
The gold is falling, and the red lantern is swaying in the wind.
Unable to find out the real culprit behind the flower boat incident, the emperor could only vent his anger on the court.The courtiers were terrified, and the people outside the palace were all in danger.
Habayashi guards in full armor can be seen all over the street.
The street corner, which is very lively on weekday nights, has become much more depressed.
Except for the faint human voices and the smell of wine coming from the flower house and the inn, there are only a few distant barks of dogs now and then.
Qin Huaisu walked slowly on his horse. He was tall and tall.Appearing alone on the street is very conspicuous.
Habayashi Wei noticed him, and was held down by his partner before he raised his knife.
The Habayashi Army who was about to interrogate him was probably a newcomer, and he knew Qin Huaisu's identity after being whispered by the people around him.
The two of them saluted Qin Huaisu with fists in the distance, and then detoured away.
The horse underneath probably sensed that the master was restless, so he turned around and licked Qin Huaisu's fingers.
Qin Huaisu's hand caressed the horse's smooth fur, and Jiang Changning's silent tears appeared in front of his eyes.
His hands stopped, and his heart ached.The body shook twice and almost fell off the horse.
Mother Jiang's words made him feel very frustrated.
As long as the little girl gets close to her, she always seems to be hurt.
Once he had this idea, Qin Huaisu could no longer deceive himself.
Whether he wants to or not, he has to stay away from Jiang Changning now.
The horse under him suddenly ran two quick steps, Qin Huaisu held the rein weakly.
When the horse stopped in front of a lighted shop, Qin Huaisu unexpectedly smelled a familiar sweet fragrance.
It's sweet-scented osmanthus.
This is a dim sum shop that has been open at the entrance of the alley for some years.
There was an old couple in the shop.
I saw Qin Huaisu riding a tall horse, wearing extraordinary clothes and elegant demeanor.She was so frightened that her face turned pale, thinking that she had bumped into the nobleman in front of her.
The old couple knelt down tremblingly and wanted to kowtow, but Qin Huaisu stopped them.
He looked at the dazzling array of candies in the shop, and asked in a cold voice, "Is there any sweet-scented osmanthus?"
"Yes! Yes!" The old man hastily took out clean oil paper, wrapped up the freshly made candy cubes and handed them to Qin Huaisu.
The sugar just out of the pot has the sweet scent of osmanthus, steaming hot, and it feels heavy in Qin Huaisu's palm, just like his sinking heart now.
Sweet-scented osmanthus sugar is fried with oil dipped in rice sugar, sprinkled evenly with sesame seeds, with neat branches, and osmanthus petals can be seen in the light yellow transparent sugar.
Qin Huaisu took out a piece and put it in his mouth, the familiar sweetness melted on the tip of his tongue, enveloping the scene of his first meeting with Jiang Changning.
……
Jiang Changning felt as if he had slept for a long time, his limbs were numb, and he couldn't control himself for a while.
She opened her eyes, and saw the familiar tent, Hong Xing saw that she was awake and didn't care to talk to her, and shouted out in surprise, "Tell Madam, the girl is awake!"
"How does the girl feel?" Hong Xing's eyes were still red and swollen, and now she hung up the happy news, and the unshed tears were still shining.
Jiang Changning wanted to reassure her that she was fine, but her throat was hoarse and she didn't speak for a while.
"Look at this servant's memory!"
Hong Xing slapped her head, went to the table and poured a glass of warm water to Jiang Changning, complaining to herself: "The doctor told me before that the girl choked on the water, which would definitely cause her throat discomfort, so let the girl drink more warm water after waking up."
After waking up for a while, it can be regarded as regaining some strength.Jiang Changning took the cup, and the warm tea soothed her burning throat and trachea, and her chest felt much more relaxed.
Jiang Changning raised his hand and patted the back of Hong Xing's hand lightly. She remembered how Hong Xing treated her before and after the accident.
"Sister Ning is awake?!"
Jiang's mother hurriedly opened the door and came in, she probably left in a hurry, and the serving woman was left far behind by her.
Hong Xing supported Jiang Changning to sit up on the bed, with a soft pillow behind him.
Mother Jiang sat beside her, looked back and forth with her eyes, and finally let out a heavy breath when she saw that Changning was fine.
Hong Xing went to the small kitchen to make medicine, leaving only Mother Jiang and a nun in the room.
Mother Jiang wanted to ask many questions, but she didn't ask anything.Sister Ning is safe and sound at the moment, it is useless to ask more about what happened at that time, why bother to involve Sister Ning in matters that the emperor has not investigated.
only……
Mother Jiang waved Mammy back.
Knowing that Mother Jiang had something to say, Jiang Changning raised the cup he was holding and drank the water in one gulp.
"Sister Ning, I know that you have been smart since you were a child and have your own ideas. Back then, the elders of the Hou Mansion and the Duke's Mansion hit it off and made a marriage contract, and they never asked you what you meant. It is suitable. But now that you have grown up and have your own thoughts, the wedding is approaching, what do you think?"
Jiang Changning didn't expect Jiang's mother to say such words.According to the order of the parents and the matchmaker, although she has always wanted to dissolve the engagement, but filial piety is the first priority for children, and Jiang's mother's attitude has not directly raised this matter. It is not expected that the mother has already seen it.
"Mother, I can't say yes or no to my daughter in the Hou Mansion. But as myself, I don't want to. I don't want to marry Gu Xiujing, mother." Jiang Changning spoke with difficulty, his voice still very soft She was hoarse, and her throat was tearing and painful every time she said a word, but she was serious and determined every word.
Jiang's mother was very distressed when she heard Jiang Changning's voice, but she heard Jiang Changning's seriousness, and didn't stop her from finishing her sentence, but silently poured another glass of water and handed it over.
Sister Ning was so unwilling but never resisted, she must have been wronged for a long time, if she hadn't brought it up by herself, how long would she have endured it?
The more Mother Jiang thought about it, the more distressed she became, she made up her mind and said, "Don't worry, as long as you don't want to, I will go to the Duke's Mansion to dissolve this engagement even if I don't want to."
Jiang Changning leaned on Jiang's mother's shoulder and hugged her, and there was tender affection between the two.
……
Jiang's mother acted swiftly and resolutely, and the wedding was approaching and she couldn't delay any longer. She sent someone to the Duke's mansion and rushed to the door.
……
"What?!" It was this kind of heavy news that came up, and the teacup in Gu's mother's hand was almost unsteady.
She thought that Mrs. Jiang came to discuss the details of Changning and Xiu Jing's marriage, how could she have thought that she would directly throw out the matter of breaking the engagement as soon as she entered the door without saying a word.
"Mrs. Jiang, not to mention that Changning and Xiujing's marriage contract has been passed in front of the elders a long time ago. Now that the wedding is approaching, no one in the city knows that you and my family are as good as Qin and Jin. Now we are retiring the engagement." , not only sweeping the face of the elders, how do you let our government gain a foothold among the people?"
Mother Gu was still very satisfied with Jiang Changning before she had the wrong daughter-in-law. She is outstanding in appearance, virtuous and virtuous, and she is also a well-known talented woman in the city.It's just that this wrong thing was exposed, and she was nothing more than a farmer.After all, he was considered to be half of the one who grew up by himself, and Gu's mother didn't care about it, and the Duke's Mansion gained a lot of good reputation because of it.
