Chang'an is good

Chapter 177 Did She Save Your Life?

There was a momentary blank in Cui Jing's mind.

Until he realized that Chang Suining just moved closer to his shoulder, seeming to sniff lightly.

After a while, Chang Suining looked away from his shoulder and looked up at him.

The two were very close, when she looked at him like this, Cui Jing's voice was a little uncomfortable: "...what's wrong?"

Chang Suining twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, considering the possibility that the partition wall had ears, he didn't open his mouth.

She grabbed Cui Jing's hand.

Cui Jing froze again, but she also grabbed her.

In the dim shadows, the girl's hand held his wrist through the sleeve, and with the other hand, she secretly wrote something in his palm with her index finger.

Due to her martial arts practice, the girl also had thin calluses on her fingertips. At this moment, she slid across his palm covered with more calluses.

Finally, she looked at him with questioning eyes.

Cui Jing was startled for a while, and seemed to have just come back to his senses, his slightly blank eyes were clearly saying: What did you write?
Chang Suining: "..."

In the past, she and Chang Kuo were both good at conveying messages in dark handwriting, and she thought that Cui Jing should also be good at feeling this.

Cui Jing didn't know how to explain it to her, he was usually very good at it.

Why don't you... write it again?
He looked at her and suggested with his eyes.

Chang Suining gave up, let go of his hand, and only fixed her eyes on his shoulder again. She just wrote three words in the palm of his hand - hurt?

She vaguely smelled the smell of blood and wound medicine on his body.

This smell is not obvious, only because the two are close, the wind is clear, there is no other smell to cover, and she has always been sensitive to these smells, so she smelled it a little or two.

How could Cui Jing not know what she wanted to ask.

As early as when she approached his shoulder just now, he knew it in his heart.

He really didn't bother to feel what she wrote... But he didn't need her to write in his palm, he could understand her meaning.

He was never dull.

It was only because of this that in front of her at this time, he seemed a little blunt for no reason.

At this moment, Cui Jing only slightly nodded his head inconspicuously when he met that gaze that was not so much a question but a confirmation.

At this moment, Chang Suining had an answer in his heart about the sound of the dismantling and stopping of the mechanism when she walked into the secret passage of the mechanism during the day.

So, at that time, he took the opportunity of settling the refugees, and after leaving Empress Ming's sight, where she and everyone else couldn't see, he broke through the death line that would never stop once it opened, and destroyed it for her. For a while.

She couldn't see it then, and she didn't know it.

With his appearance, he probably didn't intend to tell her.

But now she knows.

So, he really knew, knew who she was - when she didn't know.

The night was silent, and the four looked at each other silently.

After a while, Chang Suining said, "Thank you."

Out of caution, she did not forget to make up an excuse for this thank you: "Thank you for coming to see me today."

She didn't mean this time, or more than this time.

A smile appeared in Cui Jing's eyes: "Why do you and I need to thank you for such small things?"

Hearing this sentence, Chang Suining also had a smile in his eyes.

She thought she might lose a very good friend.

Now it seems that friends are still there.

Chang Suining's friends didn't disappear because of Li Shang who got into too much trouble.

"Besides, I'm also very happy to see you." The young man spoke slowly and seriously, looking into the pair of dark eyes in the night, he said: "It's nice to see you again."

—Nice to see you again.

—It is a pleasure to see you again, Your Highness.

Cui Jing repeated it many times in her heart.

However, repeating it thousands of times still cannot describe his state of mind in case.

This sentence is very shallow, and other words are destined to be shallow. Any words that exist in this world probably cannot describe his mood.

Chang Sui Ning Zi is not a dull person, she can understand the meaning of Cui Jing's words, but... the word "Zai" in his mouth, does it mean that "she" has indeed seen him before?

She also had the feeling that she had seen him somewhere before, but she couldn't remember it.

And now is not the time to ask these questions—at this moment, she and he are talking about these random words, without thinking, without interest, without waves, and the passing mice will yawn after squatting and listening for a while.

But it can only continue to be random: "I still have to thank you, but Governor Cui will travel far away, and both the prefecture and the northern border need Governor Cui. When the governor returns to Beijing, I will hold a banquet and wait."

"Will you prepare wine?" Cui Jing asked.

"Of course." Chang Sui Ning promised solemnly, "But I drink tea."

A smile appeared between Cui Jing's dark brows: "There has always been a rule in Xuan Ce's mansion, those who don't drink should sit at the same table with Ah Dian."

Even though he was so heroic in the past, Chang Suining can only compromise with reality at this moment: "...Then I will have a table with Ah Dian."

The smile between Cui Jing's brows deepened, and when talking about her drinking, he thought of what Ah Dian once said that she liked to eat chestnuts when drinking on the roof of Xuan Ce Mansion.

He subconsciously raised the hand holding the chestnut, and showed her the chestnut: "Speaking of thanks, didn't you already give me a thank you gift?"

It's just to break the formation, a chestnut as a gift is enough for him.

In other words, he never thought of asking her to thank him, he just did what he wanted to do, not so much helping her, but following his own heart.

No one needs to be thanked by others after doing what they want to do.

Chang Suining stared at the chestnut she just threw out in Cui Jing's hand, and belatedly realized that this chestnut might also be one of the clues to reveal her identity.

At this time, Cui Jing's voice sounded again: "If you need me to do something in the future, you only need one chestnut, and one chestnut can be exchanged for one thing."

Chang Suining couldn't help looking at him, and smiled a little: "It turns out that a single chestnut can attract Governor Cui."

There was a sense of joke in her words, obviously she didn't take it too seriously, but the young man in front of her was very serious, nodded with her and said: "No matter when, where, whatever."

Seeing him like this, Chang Suining became more serious, and after a while, she nodded with a smile: "Okay, then it's settled."

However, since he promised her a chestnut in exchange for one thing, she promised him one too.

In the face of sincerity, she can also be very decent.

"If Governor Cui needs me to do anything in the future, you can speak up." Chang Suining added: "No need for chestnuts, just say it."

Cui Jing laughed and said, "You are much more generous than me."

Well, it is said that the former general of the Xuan Ce Army has always been very strong, and he does not like to lose to others, and his reputation is indeed well-deserved.

"It's easy to say." Chang Suining said, "You were the one who treated me generously first, so I should go back."

She was not a generous person, just because he was worth it.

Cui Jing looked at her: "...Why does it sound like you and I are fighting?"

Chang Suining thought about it for a while, and it was true, but she nodded: "It's okay, there is a reason."

Hostility can be exchanged for hostility, sincerity can be exchanged for sincerity, and many things in this world are roughly the same.

Cui Jing seemed to be convinced by her, and nodded: "Well, there is a reason."

Chang Suining: "Then I'll give it a try first."

Cui Jing was puzzled, what to try?
The next moment, she lowered her head and took out something from the purse tied around the waist of her coat, and handed it to him.

Another chestnut.

After being startled for a moment, Cui Jing raised his hand to take it, and asked seriously, "What do you need me to do?"

Chang Suining: "Go back and have a good sleep."

Hearing this "request", Cui Jing looked at her: "Why don't you try something more useful?"

Chang Suining looked at the chestnut in his hand, and asked without answering, "Isn't it easy to use?"

Cui Jing nodded: "It's easy to use."

Since it is easy to use, then he will leave.

He finally urged: "After returning to Beijing, if there is a need, no matter how big or small, you can go to Xuan Ce Mansion with the bronze amulet."

He also said: "If something happens to you in the temple in the past two days, then go find Master Wujue."

In Wujue, there will be all the answers she wants to get.

Chang Suining understood what he meant, and nodded with him: "Okay."

Then, she watched Cui Jing leave.

He has a lot of responsibilities on this trip, whether it is Bingzhou Governor Shi's intention to collude with Xu Zhengye, or preparing troops in the northern border to deter Beidi, it is all related to the safety of Dasheng, all of which depend on him at this moment, and he is not allowed to make any mistakes.

Although she has never fought side by side with Cui Jing, but she was also him once, so there are similarities in her mood.

Noticing that the gaze behind him was looking at him quietly, Cui Jing didn't turn his head, and just ignored it out of respect, so as not to disturb that gaze.

He walked a little slowly, but he didn't dare to go too slowly.

He's gotten a lot of stares, but this time, it's very different.

Cui Jing looked at the two chestnuts in his hand and smiled slightly. He has gained a lot from this trip.

Yuan Xiang, who was waiting not far away, greeted him, walked forward beside Cui Jing, and lowered his voice: "...General Governor, you can be regarded as coming out, and my subordinates still think that you are going to stay inside for a night. I almost went in to find you!"

The governor was injured today, and when the time came, he needed to change his dressing, but he was almost dying of anxiety when no one came out.

"Well, she asked me to go back and have a good sleep." Cui Jing said softly.

Yuan Xiang: "?"

she?
Miss Chang?
Oh, the co-author of the Metropolitan Governor was kicked out by Mrs. Chang.

Therefore, if the very lady chases someone away, the governor does not know how long he will stay.

Yuan Xiang wanted to sigh a little, but his eyes were attracted by the things in his own governor's hand, and he couldn't help asking: "Great governor... Where did this come from?"

But for some reason, the moment Yuan Xiang asked the question, he suddenly felt that his governor was holding it in his hand and watching, just to wait for him to ask this sentence——

Cui Jing: "She gave it to me."

Yuan Xiang: "..."

really.

But in the end it is his own governor, he still wants to cheer: "Why did Mrs. Chang give you chestnuts?"

"One is to thank you." Cui Jing explained in detail: "One is to let me go back and rest."

"..." Yuan Xiang had a strange expression on his face.

Thank you?

Is it thanks to his family's great governor for his adventurous move today?

Although he didn't know the details, but the governor and Master Wujue needed his cooperation, so he knew very well what his governor did today and for whom.

But when the governor of his family came out, he was covered in blood, and in the end... just exchanged for a chestnut as a thank you gift?

However, the governor is still very precious, even showing off to him.

Yuan Xiang felt faintly sad, but he just liked a girl. He had seen other people's examples, and he also liked it. How could his family's chief governor be reduced to this?

So, the breath that had been held in for a long time finally came out with a sigh: "Sometimes, I really want to ask you... Didn't Mrs. Chang save your life?"

Cui Jing: "Yes."

Yuan Xiang was taken aback: "When did it happen? Why didn't my subordinates know!"

In the night, a serious voice of the young man came: "In the previous life."

Yuan Xiang: "...?!"

Goodbye.

Yuan Xiang, who was greatly shocked, couldn't speak a word all the way.

And not long after Cui Jing left, after taking care of the affairs, Ming Luo, who returned to the Tiannv Pagoda according to Emperor Shengchu's confession, heard the news of Cui Jing's visit from a monk.

(Xiao Cui: She is so good, if I don't have a love brain, who will grow up?)
