Chapter 86

The carriage finally stopped outside a yard in the suburbs.

Su Changle raised her hand to open the car window and looked at the strange house outside. Su Changle had never been to this house before. It was one of her many land deeds. If it hadn't been used this time, Su Changle might not have known it.

By any chance can I think of this place.

I heard from Azhu that this was the house of a former member of the Yuan family. Because all the members of the Yuan family had left Jinling, all the real estate was disposed of. There was only one housekeeper and two nuns left in the house. They were old and

He was homeless, so Su Changle gave the house to them to take care of.

They didn't know that the owner of this house was Su Changle. They only thought that the owner was a powerful person in the capital, and they didn't ask any questions about the rest.

Lu Jingyan also saw the house outside.

Although this place is not as grand as the princess's mansion, it is by no means a desolate and desolate place. The plaque on the door is clean, and you can tell that someone is taking care of it here.

Su Changle turned around and saw Lu Jingyan's eyes. She comforted: "Don't be afraid, there are always people living here. A-Zhu has already greeted them. The people inside will take good care of you after you enter."

Lu Jingyan nodded but said nothing.

Su Changle thought she was reluctant to part with the hustle and bustle in the capital: "You need to recuperate here first, and after everything is over, this princess will definitely take you back. Now your identity..."

Su Changle did not speak too clearly, but Lu Jingyan knew that she had been targeted since the last time they were assassinated.

Su Changle saw the nervousness on Lu Jingyan's face.

She whispered quietly into Lu Jingyan's ear and said, "Don't be afraid. This princess has already surrounded the mansion. No one can harm you. The maidservants who have been protecting you in the princess' mansion before, this princess has already surrounded the mansion."

The Lord has also brought it to you, so just treat it as a sightseeing tour and relax when you come here."

After Lu Jingyan listened to Su Changle's words, she knelt down from her seat directly to the ground.

She said: "The princess is so kind and kind that I will never forget it. If there is any place where the princess can use my daughter in the future, I will never hesitate to do so."

Su Changle had no friendship with her before. She didn't know what Su Changle was planning, but if it hadn't been for Su Changle that day, she might have frozen to death on the street.

Even if she was lucky enough to survive, she would never see her mother again.

It's even more impossible to sit here unharmed after being assassinated.

Everything here was done by this little princess who was rumored throughout the city to be arrogant, rude, and cruel. She was not one of those sanctimonious young masters from aristocratic families who treated the princess's appreciation like a snake or a scorpion.

She only knew that Su Changle, the princess of Anping County, was the one who truly saved her!

Lu Jingyan's face was covered with a veil, but when she looked at Su Changle, her eyes were extremely sincere.

Su Changle helped the person up. She didn't say anything, but only gave Zhou Yihang a wink.

"We will discuss these things later. It is inconvenient for me, Princess, to get out of the car. You can go in by yourself."

"Yes." Lu Jingyan picked up her skirt and got off the carriage. The maidservant who had been hiding in the dark followed Lu Jingyan and followed her into the other courtyard.

Su Changle held the car window with his bare hands and watched Lu Jingyan step forward and knock on the door of the other courtyard.

The person who opened the door was an old man. After Lu Jingyan revealed his identity, the old man quickly welcomed the person in and then closed the door tightly.

With a "squeak" sound, Su Changle waited for the door to close before closing the car window.

"Let's go." Su Changle gently ordered.

Zhou Yihang gently knocked on the side of the car. The coachman outside heard the sound and whipped the driver's whip on the horse.

The carriage turned around and drove towards the city. The originally silent surroundings gradually began to hear voices.

Su Changle leaned against the carriage and didn't know what he was thinking. Zhou Yihang quietly looked at Su Changle the whole way but didn't speak.

The carriage started from the Princess's Mansion and is still heading back to the Princess's Mansion.

When the carriage stopped at the side entrance of the Princess's Mansion, Su Changle said to Yiyi Hang: "If possible in the future, I would like to trouble Lord Zhou to help me check on Lu Jingyan occasionally."

Zhou Yihang nodded: "Princess, don't worry, I will do my best as an official."

"Brother's side..." Su Changle said to himself, "I guess I can't find anyone."

She suddenly chuckled: "Brother always prevents this princess from getting involved in these things, but he doesn't know that even if this princess doesn't know about these things and doesn't participate in these things, this princess will still run away.

.”

She sighed faintly: "No one in Jinling City can escape."

Zhou Yihang didn't know why Su Changle suddenly mentioned this. He only advised: "Princess, don't worry. I will do my best to investigate the matter that the princess asked me to investigate."

"Then thank you, Mr. Zhou." Su Changle thanked her. She lifted up her skirt and got out of the car. "It's getting late, so I will go back first."

Zhou Yihang couldn't stop him anymore. He watched Su Changle go back through the side door where he came out in the morning.

Only then did his eyes leave.

Ever since Su Changle got on the carriage, Zhou Yihang's eyes had been on her.

In the carriage, what Su Changle said to Lu Jingyan made him dream back to many years ago.

At that time, Su Changle was much younger than he is now. Such a bright little girl easily rescued him, shielded him from the wind and rain, and pointed out the way for him.

He can understand Lu Jingyan and what Lu Jingyan wants to do in the future.

But it seems that this is all.

"Let's go." Zhou Yihang lowered his eyes and said to the coachman outside.

As the simple carriage drove away from the Princess's Mansion, he did not see Song Shi, who had been standing in the dark, seeing the scene clearly.

--

As soon as Su Changle returned to the princess' mansion, Ah Zhu hurriedly greeted him.

After she sent Su Changle out of the house this morning, she had been waiting for Su Changle near the side door. The maid who had just cleaned the study came to report that Jiang Shen was now in the study.

Although Ah Zhu was anxious, he couldn't go directly to chase people away because of his status, so he had to hope that Su Changle would come back soon.

Su Changle looked at Ah Zhu's anxious expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Jun Ma went to the study to look for you today. After finding no one, he went to the study on his own and has not come out yet."

"What!" Su Changle's expression calmed down, and she walked quickly towards the study, the skirt at her feet flying wildly with her footsteps.

Jiang Shen had never looked for him. Most of the time, he would stay quietly in his study and read. In the past, Su Changle would look for him.

Therefore, she did not issue any ban to the government.

Although Su Changle was anxious, she still felt that Jiang Shen would not touch anything of hers. After all, it had nothing to do with him!

Ah Zhu followed Su Changle and trotted all the way.

Su Changle held up her skirt and rushed all the way to the study. Seeing that the study door was not open, she looked to the side and saw that the sweeping maid shook her head.

Jiang Shen did not come out, he is still in the study.

Su Changle felt anxious and trotted to the study door. She opened the door vigorously and let the sky light pour into the room.

The light in the morning is strong and dazzling, especially the light in spring.

Jiang Shen was sitting on the low couch that could be seen as soon as the study opened the door. On the small table next to him was a cup of tea that he poured for himself. He was sitting on the low couch with a book in his hand.

.

As the door was pushed open, a beam of light shone on Jiang Shen's face.

Jiang Shen's eyes were illuminated by strong light, and he subconsciously squinted his eyes. The person in front of him came against the light, and he could only see that the person's white dress was dyed dazzlingly by the light.

Even if he couldn't see clearly, he knew who was coming through the door.

Princess Anping, Su Changle.

Su Changle opened the door and saw Jiang Shen sitting there. It seemed that he was just here waiting for her with a book, nothing more.

She was still panting slightly, and she didn't have time to wipe the thin sweat on her forehead due to the rush.

Her rapid breathing reached Jiang Shen's ears clearly.

Seeing that Jiang Shen didn't find anything, Su Changle breathed a sigh of relief in the dark. She turned around and closed the study door.

The dazzling light was blocked outside the study for an instant, but the bright light was reflected through the paper window into the study. Turning around again, Su Changle had the same charming smile on his face as usual.

She walked to Jiang Shen's side and looked at the book in Jiang Shen's hand: "Why are you waiting here for my princess?"

Jiang Shen glanced at Su Changle's cheek, and a drop of sweat dripped down Su Changle's cheek.

With a "beep" sound, it hit the desk.

Beads of sweat instantly burst into pieces, but Su Changle didn't seem to notice it. He just raised his hand to get himself a cup and poured some warm tea into it.

She drank it in one gulp, then raised her hand to pour herself a glass, but didn't drink it, just held it in her hand.

Jiang Shen watched Su Changle's movements, then he closed the book in his hand and said to Su Changle: "I happened to see the book I wanted to read when I came to the study the other day, so I came here to look for it today.

"

"That's it!" Su Changle stood on tiptoe slightly and looked at Jiang Shen's hand, "Is this the book?"

"No, I just picked it up casually. The book was not found."

"That's it..." Su Changle whispered.

"However," Jiang Shen suddenly lowered his voice, "I did discover another little secret of the princess."

The words "little secret" were light and airy, but Su Changle's back felt cold.

She took a sip of tea in a covert manner and asked: "What! How can this princess have any little secrets? Don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Shen suddenly chuckled when he heard what Su Changle said.

He bent slightly and stretched his hand under a cushion.

Su Changle's hand holding the cup was tense. Her eyes were fixed on Jiang Shen's hand. Her heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of her heart.

Her eyes moved along with Jiang Shen's fingers.

Jiang Shen seemed to deliberately move slowly, whetting Su Changle's appetite and heart.

Su Changle's breath that had just stabilized fluctuated again with Jiang Shen's movements, until——

Jiang Shen slowly pulled out a book from under the cushion.

The words "Tiangong Shu" were clearly visible on the cover of the book. Su Changle closed his eyes nervously. When he opened them again, Jiang Shen happened to turn his head to look at Su Changle.

"What is this?" Su Changle asked.

"Isn't this the princess's little secret?" Jiang Shen smiled softly. He put the book on the desk and leaned close to Su Changle.
