Chapter 178
The afternoon sun was bright and abundant, and it shone directly into the box, casting shadows from the carvings on the grid fan onto the neat wooden floor, and also casting some light and shadow on Jiang Wuqiao's face and shoulders. Her expression was as usual, and her appearance remained the same. I can't even tell what she's thinking.

After thinking about it for a while, Wenda Jiahui was already depressed, and he tried his best to control his voice as usual.

"Jiang Wu, it seems that you don't believe what I said."

Jiang Wu blinked her long eyelashes in surprise: "Why did you say that?"

Her eyes were clear and her expression was surprised, Wenda Jiahun laughed at himself for overreacting and caring too much about small details, which inevitably made him an emperor, so he coughed in embarrassment.

Jiang Wu is so smart. Seeing him like this, I don't know where his anger comes from. She smiled and said, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just whether I believe it or not. One is that I am far away from the city of Jingdu, and the other is that I am a woman like you. The matter of the court cannot be commented on. The third is that I trust the ability of my Lord Marquis, and I can handle it properly even if I don’t say much. The fourth is that no matter whether your source of information is reliable, the fact that the emperor is under control remains unchanged. So this Although the news is important to me, it also makes me helpless." Any news can only be effective if she can stay by Huo Shijiu's side, otherwise it will be nothing but worrying.

Wenda Jiahui was a little discouraged for a moment, but the sharp light in his eyes fell on Jiang Wu's slightly drooping pretty face, which was mixed with a little gentleness. He sat down in the empty seat beside her and sighed: "Sometimes I think, you How wonderful it would be to be like an ordinary woman, what I say is what I say, I favor a glance, it is like a great favor, I can see love and flattering in her eyes, but you are not. Your words and deeds, It's always beyond my expectations. Then I thought, thank you for not being like that, otherwise how would I have noticed you and cared about you?"

Jiang Wu looked up at the man facing the sun.There was an imperceptible trace of embarrassment on his mature and resolute face, his eyes were affectionate, and the corners of his lips were pursed in embarrassment.

Maybe this person is used to being in a high position, so he is only used to getting what he should have, not used to expressing it.

"Thank you for your kindness. It's just that Luo Fu has a husband. If you want this friendship to last, you should also know how to act properly."

"Yes, it's because I know, but I can't hold back your temper, that I find it very difficult. I originally wanted to call your husband Shangzhu, but I was afraid that you would be sad, so I couldn't persecute him in the end."

Jiang Wu couldn't find anything to say for a while, so she just smiled.

Wen Da Jiahui sighed in frustration, and joked: "You are really capable, you didn't want to drink just now, but now you want to."

"I'm not in good health recently, so I can only watch you eat." Jiang Wu then turned her head and told Wenda Jiahun's guards: "Go get the wine and vegetables."

The guard glanced at Wenda Jiahun, saw him nod his head, and then bowed and retreated. After a while, the food and drink were ready.

The guards took the silver needles, tested the poison in advance, and tried them separately. After a while, they found that they were all right, so Wen Da Jiahui and Jiang Wu had dinner together.

Wen Da Jiahui is not a person who is good at making women happy, and Jiang Wu is not a talkative person either. The two only eat quietly and strictly abide by the rule of "do not talk when eating", and the atmosphere seems a bit dull.The shouts from the market still add a lot of excitement to the house, but fortunately I don't feel embarrassed.

After dinner and tea, Wen Da Jiahui said: "The market is very lively, how about you and I go together?"

Jiang Wu shook her head, and the small pearl earrings on her earlobes glowed elegantly: "I still won't go. I don't know if anyone saw me when I came out of the house this time. If you don't pay attention and get caught, you will be fine by then." , but I dragged my family with me."

Wen Dajia raised his thick eyebrows slightly, "You are honest." In fact, he had already noticed that there were spies watching when he was in front of the Hou Mansion just now, but for the sake of safety, he had asked his people to follow up secretly and make the man Lost, presumably Jiang Wu is willing to come, and firmly believes that the other party will do all the aftermath.

However, there are so many people in the market, it is really not a good place to go.

Jiang Wu said again: "It's better to chat here for a while."

Wenda Jiahui was naturally happy to settle for the next best thing.

The two only chatted first, not involved in political affairs, only gossip, until it was getting late, Wen Da Jiahui was going to send Jiang Wu back.

Jiang Wu declined, "The situation is special, it is more appropriate for me to go back by myself, if you come together, it will inevitably attract the attention of the watchers again. I don't know where you are staying?"

Wen Da Jiahun also knew that Jiang Wu was stubborn, and if he refused to ask him to send him off, there would be no room for change, so he could only say: "I have a small courtyard in the city, not far from your place."

Jiang Wu didn't ask about his location, and said: "Then you and I will say goodbye, I will take a step first, and you sit for a while before leaving."

Seeing her being so cautious, Wen Da Jiahui smiled lightly and said, "Seeing that you are so careful, you are a good seed for a spy." Alluding to her purpose of following Huo Shijiu.

Jiang Wu smiled, "Who is to say that the current situation is unstable. If you want to be safe, you must be cautious. Now that you are abroad, you must also remember that this is not the land of the Kingdom of Jin. If you are not careful, you will be watched by some bandit road tyrant Come on, it’s not worthwhile to suffer a lot.”

"It's been a while, you still have the heart to tease me first." Wen Da Jiahui shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "The gathering is always short, and I look forward to your honor and promise to have a meal together next time."

Jiang Wu put on the veiled hat, and through a layer of veil, Wen Da Jiahun's brows became hazy, and she couldn't help joking again: "If you were so elegant when we first met, I would probably have a good impression of you of."

There was heat on his face, "Isn't it just now?" He looked fierce.

Jiang Wu sneered: "Yes, yes."

"It's obviously a perfunctory one. I never thought that I would be so unpopular in front of you." Even though he said it out of anger, he couldn't help but laugh when he said it.

The two said goodbye in front of the private room.Wen Da Jiahun stood behind the door, looking at the back of Jiang Wu and the accompanying maid who were drifting away outside the door, and sighed complicatedly in his heart.

The accompanying guard said: "Your Majesty, do you want me to go and have a look?"

"No. Her ability won't make people follow her easily." Following someone would make her misunderstand that he sent someone to watch her.Wenda Jiahun smiled wryly again.Now that he is the king of a country, he has to be so careful and considerate in front of this woman, for fear of offending her.

According to Jiang Wu's instructions, Ting Yu drove Lan Bu's pony carriage at a leisurely pace, walking through the streets and alleys instead of going straight to Hou's mansion.Ting Yu took the snacks she just bought and offered them to Jiang Wu, and asked in a low voice through the curtain: "Ma'am, do we still have to go somewhere else?"

Jiang Wu shook her head and said, "No, I'll go back to my residence later."

"Then what are we doing now?"

Jiang Wu looked at the pink walls and black tiles that were dyed red by the setting sun outside the lifted window screens, and there were pedestrians walking in a hurry, so she couldn't help but feel sad: "I will find a quiet alley to stop later, and I will follow you." That person solved it and we are going back."

"Follow?" Ting Yu asked awe-inspiringly, "Madam found out that someone is following you?" She didn't dare to check casually, for fear of alarming the follower.

Jiang Wu only said "um", then put down the window screen, leaned lazily on the soft pillow and did not speak.

The car moved forward for a while, and the sky was already stained with dark blue. He listened to the rain and drove the car carefully, all the muscles in his body were tense.According to Jiang Wu's instructions, he drove the car to a quiet alley, and suddenly felt the cold wind moving behind him.

Ting Yu exclaimed, and when she turned her head, she only saw the car curtain shaking, and Jiang Wu's pale pink figure wearing a white gauze hat had already swept away three feet away, pushing a man in a dark brown cloth to the ground. In the corner of the wall, the dagger was resting on his neck.

"Tell me, who sent you here?"

The man looked at the woman in front of him in amazement, even though she couldn't see her face clearly behind the tulle, but following all the way, he knew that the person in front of him was indeed Mrs. Jin Ninghou!
Unexpectedly, Hou Jinning had such a powerful character by his pillow!
The man kept his mouth shut, cold sweat dripping from his nose and temples. In this situation, he would be dead if he said it, or he would be dead if he didn't say it...

Jiang Wu didn't give him time to be entangled and helpless. As soon as the dagger was loosened, it cut through the man's neck, and blood gushed out instantly. Sliding on the ground, his legs kicked and his body twitched.

Jiang Wu rubbed the blood on his body, didn't stay long, and returned to the carriage.

All this happened while talking.

Ting Yu felt chills down his spine, and asked with a trembling voice, "Ma'am, is there no one following?"

"No more." Jiang Wu's tone was as usual, and her voice was soft and lazy.

Such a person has no hesitation in killing people, it is more enjoyable than killing chickens.

Although Ting Yu was horrified, he also knew that if the news of Jiang Wu's meeting with Wen Da Jiahun was spread to the capital, and Huo Shijiu's political opponents learned of it, they would definitely use it as a murderer. That's all, when it comes to life and death, Jiang Wu will not back down.

Back in the mansion, Jiang Wu first went back to the bedroom and ordered people to prepare fragrant soup for bathing.

When Wen Da Jiahui was having tea in a second-class mansion not far from the Hou's mansion, he heard the guard reply: "Just now there was indeed a murder case in the city. It was an old vegetable seller who was found dead in the alley on the way home. One person, about thirty years old, was killed by someone cutting off a large blood vessel in his neck."

Wen Da Jiahui played with the lid of the exquisite gold-painted tea bowl, and said with a smile: "Look, I knew it would be like this."

"The emperor knows Mrs. Huo very well." The accompanying guards understood Wen Da Jiahui's thoughts, and the words he said really made him feel at ease. Compared with saying "the emperor's reputation" [-] times, it made people feel more comfortable.

Wen Da Jiahui said conveniently: "The people around the Hou's mansion don't withdraw for the time being. It seems that the other party will attack in the past few days."

"Abiding by the order. It's just that Madam Huo doesn't know about it at all, and won't accept your favor. Why didn't you explain that when you met her today, there was a group of people in the capital that she couldn't think of who had photographed assassins and wanted to assassinate them?"

Wen Dajiaxuan snorted: "Who do you think I am? Are you taking credit for a little thing?"
