Who Xu Jiangshan

Chapter 32 His Stubborn Stone, My Rough Jade (2)
"Hey again." Xie Ziyu said calmly as if he didn't hear it.

Chu Yan's complexion changed, she got up and was about to pounce on Xie Ziyu, Su Ye kicked Chu Yan back to the ground.

Chu Yan struggled to raise her head, looked at Xie Ziyu, smiled sadly, and said, "Answer me, as long as you answer me, I will tell you where she is."

Xie Ziyu took a step closer to her, leaned over slightly, slightly raised the corners of his lips, like a Shura, and said slowly: "You want to know?"

Chu Yan stared at him blankly.

"Because I love her."

Chu Yan's face turned pale immediately, and she only murmured: "When? Impossible..."

Xie Ziyu didn't speak, his eyes were full of mockery.

Chu Yan seemed to understand something, her heart was crushed by a heavy stone, no matter how hard it was to recover.

After an unknown amount of time, Chu Yan suddenly burst out laughing. She looked at Xie Ziyu and said word by word, "So what if you love her? After tonight, she won't be able to survive! No matter how much you love her, you won't love her anymore." Can't marry her!"

Xie Ziyu's eyes darkened, and finally lost patience, and walked out of the dungeon with a flick of his sleeves.

Su Ye followed quickly: "Master, do you need me to torture you?"

"No, just rely on how she can hurt Aning? There must be someone behind the scenes, send more people, don't let go of any clues."

The sky was getting brighter, Xie Ziyu stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, and the servant had already prepared the red gown and waited behind him. He looked at the gradually brightening sky, his eyes gradually became darker.

Suddenly, Su Ye broke in panting: "Master! We have a clue!"

Xie Ziyu turned around, saw the blood-stained shirt and mask in Su Ye's hands, and his face sank.

"An hour ago, someone was searching for something in the Yujiang River. However, as soon as the subordinates and others rushed over, they withdrew. The subordinates guessed that it was related to the princess, so they searched along the upstream and found this under the rocks on the bank." Su Ye explained.

"Since they didn't find her, it means that she has escaped. She will definitely return to the city and look for her in the city!" Xie Ziyu said after pondering for a moment.

Su Ye took the order to go, Xie Ziyu closed her eyes, it was the second time, someone wanted to put her to death, it seemed that it was time.

When Chu Ning woke up, there was the sound of drums and firecrackers coming from far and near outside the window. She was startled, and turned her head to see Mu Lianzhi standing by the window.

She moved her fingers and found that her acupoints had been released. She wanted to get up, but found that her whole body was limp and powerless. She suddenly thought of the time when she was rescued by Mu Lianzhi before, and she was as powerless as today.

She looked at Mu Lianzhi and twitched the corners of her lips: "Did you give me cartilage powder?"

Mu Lianzhi turned around, with a smile on his lips: "A-Ning has always been smart, and he doesn't lose his bones, how can I rest assured?"

Chu Ning didn't speak, Mu Lianzhi looked out of the window again, "Do you know whose family's welcoming team is downstairs?" After a pause, he continued, "You said the bride is gone, can the wedding still go on?"

Chu Ning twitched the corners of his lips: "Could it be that Master thinks that this wedding will not go ahead if I'm trapped?"

Mu Lianzhi's face changed slightly, and sure enough, after a while, the welcoming team welcomed the bride and was about to return to Prince Rong's Mansion.

Mu Lianzhi looked at Xie Ziyu who was riding on the tall horse. He was radiant and proud, as if the person sitting in the sedan chair was really Chuning.

Mu Lianzhi's face was a bit ugly, he closed the window, walked slowly to Chuning, looked at her and asked, "Do you really want to marry him?"

"Why don't you want to?" Chu Ning curled up his lips.

"A-Ning, I know you. I know what you want most. You want freedom the most. If you marry him, you will be imprisoned from now on. You will never be able to fly out of that golden cage for the rest of your life. But if you come with me , I can give you the widest world, so that you will never be restrained."

After hearing this, Chuning smiled silently: "Isn't the world given by Master a bigger golden cage?"

"You do not trust me?"

"I believe it, but why didn't Master ask me, after so many years, has what I want changed?" Chu Ning looked at Mu Lianzhi and asked.

Mu Lianzhi didn't speak, but Chuning continued: "Master, I'm curious about how useful I am to you, so that you can disregard our friendship for so many years and disregard my wishes?"

Mu Lianzhi's expression was a little unnatural: "Who said I'm going to use you?"

Chuning just looked at Mu Lianzhi without saying a word, his beautiful eyes were full of understanding.

Mu Lianzhi couldn't help turning his head away from looking at her.

After a while, she sighed slightly: "Master, do you remember that when I saved your life back then, you said that if there is anything I want in this world, you would do anything to help me get it?"

"Could it be that Xie Ziyu is what you want?" Mu Lianzhi turned his head, and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He began to wonder when he heard that she was going to marry Xie Ziyu at the Golden Palace. She never liked Wang Sun Nobles have always been trying to stay away. What she wants is a vast world where she can gallop, not a resplendent golden cage.

"Why?" Seeing that Chuning didn't speak, Mu Lianzhi asked again.

Chuning was a little dazed, and she didn't seem to have thought about why. When she first saw him, she almost died at his hands. He lost his memory, he was no longer His Royal Highness Rong Wang, but a drop that was willing to protect her with his life.

He gave her the warmth she had wanted for so many years, and even wanted to give her a home.

But none of those seem to be reasons, none of them are enough to make her agree with her body, or even give up her freedom and keep herself above the court, so the only reason can only be—

"I love him." Chuning said word by word, "Master, I love him."

Mu Lianzhi's expression suddenly changed.

"So, don't stop me, otherwise..." Chu Ning had a dagger in her hand at some point, she sat up suddenly, and pressed the dagger against Mu Lianzhi's neck.

Mu Lianzhi's expression remained unchanged, and he only smiled lightly: "My Aning, you are really extraordinary. Others have suffered from cartilage powder, and even find it difficult to speak, but you can still point a dagger at me."

After a pause, he said again: "It's just that with your strength, can you really resist me?"

"I can't, but someone can." As soon as Chu Ning finished speaking, someone kicked in the door, and Su Ye was the first to break in. As soon as he came in, he said, "His Royal Highness asked me to tell King Mu, thank you King Mu for helping me , Your Highness has written a letter to Emperor Xiling, thanking King Mu for helping Princess Rong."

Mu Lianzhi twitched his lips: "His Royal Highness is really considerate."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Chuning and said, "It seems that I really want to drink a glass of Ah Ning's wedding wine."

"Please, my lord." Su Ye was rarely solemn, and made a gesture of invitation.

Chuning couldn't hold on anymore, the dagger fell to the ground as soon as her wrist softened, and then collapsed on the bed, feeling that all her strength had been exhausted just now.

Seeing this, Mu Jian, who was following Su Ye, hurried forward, gave Chuning an antidote, put a veil on her face, and walked out with her in his arms.

At this moment, the welcoming team of Prince Rong's Mansion was turning the last street corner and walking towards Prince Rong's Mansion. Suddenly, someone threw firecrackers into the crowd, and there was a crackling sound, and the crowd suddenly became chaotic. At this moment, a The figure flashed by suddenly, and the car curtain was lifted slightly, as if it was just blown by the wind, but there was an extra person inside.

After Mu Jian put Chuning into the sedan chair, he left quickly. The double inside had already prepared a wedding dress for Chuning, and after carefully helping her put it on, he took advantage of the confusion and retreated.

Before the cartilage scattered, Chuning leaned weakly against the car wall. She closed her eyes, let out a sigh, and finally caught up.

Thinking of Mu Lianzhi, she sighed slightly. She was afraid that from then on, this master-student relationship, which was not recognized by him, would no longer exist.

The sedan chair finally stopped, and the sound of gongs and drums also temporarily stopped. Chuning heard Xie Ziyu kick the sedan door, and then the sedan chair curtain was lifted, Xie Ziyu leaned over slightly, and stretched out his hand towards her.

Through the thin red gauze, Chuning vaguely saw the figure of the person coming. For a moment, she seemed to have returned to Cangdu last year. He was also like this at that time, dressed in a wedding robe, with a smile on his face.

Chu Ning put his hand in his palm, and heard him call softly: "A-Ning."

"it's me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Ziyu hugged her whole body. There was an exclamation from the crowd, and all the onlookers widened their eyes, watching Xie Ziyu carry Chuning all the way into the palace in disbelief.

Chuning leaned softly on his body. If he didn't hug her, she might collapse on the ground after walking a few steps.

It wasn't until Xie Tang that Xie Ziyu asked in a low voice, "Can you still hold on?"

Chu Ning nodded, Xie Ziyu then put Chuning down, but still held her hand to support her.

The wedding hall was full of guests, Xie Lingshuang, Ye Qingyan and others were standing together, and they were surprised to see Chuning being carried in by Xie Ziyu.

"What's the matter with brother Ziyu? Is he really willing to marry Chuning?" Xie Lingshuang muttered.

"Could it be that our Royal Highness Rong Wang has finally enlightened, but this aesthetic is really different from ordinary people." Huo Heng chuckled.

Ye Qingyan didn't speak, and his eyes fell on Chuning. For some reason, there was a strange emotion in his heart. This emotion was very strange, as if it was regret, or sadness, or neither, just looking at them When husband and wife worship each other, they feel dull, as if something is completely missed.

After a long time, when Ye Qingyan recalled this moment, he finally realized what he had missed.

But he couldn't regret it, and he couldn't redeem it, because he had already missed her when he sent the letter of withdrawal to the general's mansion.

After worshiping, Chu Ning was carried back to the new house by Xie Ziyu. Xie Ziyu put her on the bed and said softly, "Go to sleep first."

Chu Ning nodded, and was about to reach out to take off the red veil, but Xie Ziyu had already stopped her, and said in a low voice, "I'll come this time."

Chuning smiled lightly, and he lifted the red veil. Under the red veil, her face was stunning, her skin whiter than snow, her beautiful eyes were as bright as stars, and her lips were full of smiles.

Xie Ziyu's heart moved, and he placed a kiss on her smooth forehead, with a restrained hoarse voice: "Wait for me to come back."

After watching Xie Ziyu walk out of the room, Chuning yawned and fell asleep. After being tired all night last night and being tormented by Mu Lianzhi for a long time, now he can finally sleep well.

Fortunately, no one dared to make trouble in His Royal Highness Rong's bridal chamber, and Ye Qingyan, the only one who had the guts to make trouble, was depressed tonight and lay down on the table drunk early.

Chu Ning fell into a drowsy sleep, and heard the door being opened, and familiar footsteps sounded.There was a sudden coolness on his lips, and Chu Ning opened his eyes sleepily, and saw Xie Ziyu's face close at hand.

Xie Ziyu's hand gently stroked her neck, which was still tied with red gauze and bandages, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes involuntarily.

Chuning suddenly held his hand and said softly, "I'm fine."

The murderous intent in Xie Ziyu's eyes faded away, and a pity appeared instead, and he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, his brows and eyes were stained with strong affection: "A-Ning..."

In the night of festive candles in the bridal chamber, the red candles are dimmed.

Chu Ning only felt groggy and let Xie Ziyu brand his marks on her body.She was so tired that she almost fell asleep, and then she only felt Xie Ziyu hugging her, and vaguely heard his slightly regretful voice: "If you are not injured..."

Although his consciousness was blurred, when he heard this sentence suddenly, Chuning couldn't help but shivered, silently congratulating himself, thinking that being injured would not be harmless, at least to prevent someone from turning into a beast.

In the early morning of the second day, Chuning faintly felt a chill on her neck. She opened her eyes and saw Xie Ziyu lowering her head, helping her treat the wound on her neck.

He has picturesque features, and a pair of deep phoenix eyes are full of seriousness, Chuning couldn't help feeling a warm feeling in her heart, after a while, she thought of something, and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed: "It seems that 'Ning Chu' is going to ask for leave again. "

Xie Ziyu heard this, and couldn't help smiling: "Master Ning has been in a constant state of affairs after he became the Minister of Criminal Affairs. I wonder how Master Li feels?" Chuning sighed: "Abstaining from leave can't reduce the affairs. Master Li really wants to overwhelm me."

Every time she returned to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, she would see a large pile of files on her desk. Every time she looked at Mr. Li, he would say solemnly: "Recently, the Japanese officials have handled many cases for you, just a few cases. Presumably Lord Ning must have no problem."

Xie Ziyu kissed her lightly on the cheek, and said with a smile: "Those who are able work harder, Mr. Ning is so smart, how can he be easily crushed?"

"It's a pity that apart from the case, there is also a demon king waiting for me." Chuning said helplessly.

That demon king is Xie Zicong. Ever since Chuning picked him up from the Yujiang River and helped him solve his troubles, he has been entangled with her. She knew that he intended to win her over, so she followed suit.

It's just that Xie Zicong is more troublesome than she imagined. He likes to make trouble, and he is indeed a complete demon king.But she knew that this was all his appearance. The seemingly ignorant and willful young man was actually a scheming devil, and she was waiting for that day, waiting for him to take off his disguise and invite her to work with him.

When Xie Ziyu heard this, his smile subsided slightly. After a while, he leaned over and hugged Chuning, saying, "Be careful."

He didn't tell her not to do it, nor asked her to withdraw from the court. He clearly knew that it was a good thing for them to have her around. She was not a woman who needed to seek refuge behind him. She had the ability Hand in hand with him.

And Chuning didn't think there was anything wrong with him. She chose him, and she would have to bear the same risk as him. She knew it a long time ago and never rejected it. From now on, they need to work hand in hand, Share the wind and rain.

General Chu had already returned to the border, so on the day of Guining, Chu Ning never thought about going back to the General's Mansion, but Xie Ziyu obviously didn't think so, and woke up the sleeping Chu Ning early in the morning.

Chu Ning opened his eyes sleepily, a little puzzled: "Are you sure you want me to go back to the General's Mansion?"

"It's not you, it's us." Xie Ziyu smiled slightly, turned to look at the maid waiting by the door, and said, "Bring the princess' clothes here."

"Yes." The maidservant replied, and brought up the clothes that had been prepared.

Seeing that Chuning was still lying on the bed, Xie Ziyu stretched out his hand and pulled her up, letting her lean into his arms.

The maid saw Chuning's snow-colored skin covered with red marks at a glance, and couldn't help but blush.

Chu Ning glanced at the servant girl, who felt suffocated and quickly lowered her head. She faintly felt that this princess was not at all like what was rumored in the market. .

"My maidservant changed clothes for the princess." After a while, the maidservant whispered.

"No need, you go down." Xie Ziyu said lightly, reached out and took Chuning's clothes, and helped Chuning put them on one by one.

The maidservant who had just retreated to the door inadvertently raised her head. Seeing this scene, her complexion changed slightly. She stepped back in a hurry, but her mind was still thinking about the scene where Xie Ziyu helped Chuning dress just now. That, that was their Royal Highness Rong Wang ?That His Royal Highness Rong Wang who treats female sex as nothing and has no pity for any woman?
Back then when the emperor bestowed the marriage, everyone was rumoring that it was Miss Chu who wanted to climb up to His Highness. Although His Highness accepted the marriage, it was a last resort, but on the day of their marriage, His Highness personally carried Chu Ning out of the sedan chair. Emerge rare pity and joy.At that time, the people of Prince Rong's Mansion knew that this Concubine Rong would be the real mistress of Prince Rong's mansion, and should never be underestimated.

"Okay." Xie Ziyu said after helping Chuning get dressed.

Chuning yawned, tilted his head and looked at Xie Ziyu with a smile: "I didn't expect His Highness to serve people."

Xie Ziyu also smiled, and slender fingers brushed her skirt: "Madam won't get up again, I don't mind taking it off for you."

Chu Ning jumped off the bed quickly, his face straightened, and he slapped him upside down and said, "Your Highness, don't be so rude, today is the day of returning to peace."

Xie Ziyu didn't care about her either, a smile flashed in his eyes, and he followed her out.

The carriage had already been prepared, and there were two groups of people standing behind the carriage. Chuning glanced at the gifts they were holding or carrying, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Xie Ziyu.

Xie Ziyu smiled without saying a word, got into the carriage first, and then stretched out his hand to pull Chuning up.
