Zhou Xing sneered: "You are not me, so of course you are speaking lightly. I have liked her for so many years, and finally gave up on her for power. I made a mistake once, and it is absolutely impossible for me to make the same mistake again. Again, the same sentence,
There are many ways to deal with Zhou Mu, but you can’t drag Xi Yan down."
Zhao De had no choice but to stop this idea.
Zhou Xing pondered for a moment and made a decision: "Go back to Suzhou immediately and kill Rong Song! As for Lu Nan, do something to him on the way back to Beijing!"
If all the people involved in the case were dead and there were no witnesses, there would be no one to drag the Zheng family into trouble. This would only be the result of collusion between Rong Song and Lu Nan.
Zhao De's eyes lit up and he thought this was a solution.
The two main figures directly involved in the case were killed, and the others never negotiated with the Zheng family, so it would not be a problem.
"Yes, I'll go take care of this now!" Zhao De responded and left.
Zhou Xing looked at the deep night but was not sleepy at all. He felt that this matter had become too big and it would be difficult for the Zheng family to escape unscathed.
On that side, Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan rested for the night at Yunlin Temple. After being refreshed, they washed up and went to the dining hall to have breakfast.
When they arrived, Jian Junyi was already in the dining hall.
He greeted Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan according to the etiquette, and then greeted Hu Die.
Hu Die politely replied to Mr. Jian and followed Gu Xiyan to sit down.
After Gu Xiyan took her seat, she saw Jian Junyi still standing aside from the corner of her eye. She warmly invited: "Master Jian, can we sit together?"
Jian Junyi was a little hesitant, but Gu Xiyan raised her lips and said, "Master Jian, don't be restrained. Let's sit together. Look, Xiaodie is also sitting with us."
Seeing his name suddenly being called, Hu Die showed a bright smile: "Yes, His Highness said there are not so many rules when going out, don't you think I'm sitting together?"
Jian Junyi thinks this is a big-hearted girl.
After all, these two were also His Royal Highness and Princess, so how could she eat breakfast at the same table as the two important figures without changing her expression?
He sat down in the empty seat next to Hu Die, and Hu Die enthusiastically helped him get two vegetable buns: "This is delicious, Mr. Jian, try it."
Jian Junyi took it silently, took a bite, and looked at Hu Die.
Hu Die thought he didn't like eating steamed buns, "Isn't it delicious? Why don't you give it to me? I won't be picky."
"It's delicious." Jian Junyi continued to eat the buns with his head buried in it, and suddenly asked: "Is Miss Xiaodie engaged?"
Gu Xiyan was originally concentrating on having breakfast, but when she heard this, she couldn't help but glance at Jian Junyi.
Jian Junyi doesn't seem like a man who would ask such a question. Usually only women ask Jian Junyi if he is engaged. When is it his turn to ask a woman?
"I feel sad when I talk about the engagement. I'm used to seeing His Highness and Xi Yan loving each other, so I think it's hard for me to get married." After Hu Die finished talking about himself, he asked politely: "Master Jian is a talented person, so he should
Are you engaged?"
A smile flashed in Jian Junyi's eyes: "Never."
"Then Mr. Jian must be in good condition and can choose slowly."
As soon as Hu Die finished speaking, Gu Xiyan asked: "Xiaodie, what do you think about Mr. Jian's conditions?"
Hu Die felt that Gu Xiyan asked nonsense: "Master Jian is good-looking, has a good temperament, and is so good at martial arts. Isn't this a good condition?"
Gu Xiyan laughed dumbly and did not answer any more words.
Since Hu Die became her bodyguard, she always said that she was used to Zhou Mu being so kind to her, so she couldn't help but use Zhou Mu as the standard when looking for a man in the future.
In fact, most of the time she agrees with Hu Die's words that there cannot be a second Zhou Mu in the world, but isn't there an equally outstanding Jian Junyi?
How could a man like Jian Junyi abruptly ask a young and beautiful woman if she was engaged?
If anything goes wrong, there must be a monster, and she thinks Jian Junyi is probably attracted to Hu Die.
But Xiaodie, this silly elder sister, didn't realize Jian Junyi's thoughts about her at all. This situation is interesting now.
If Jian Junyi and Hu Die could do something good, she would be happy to see it happen.
Jian Junyi also heard Hu Die's evaluation of him, but he couldn't be happy.
It was a good thing that Hu Die praised him so much, but she was not shy at all when she commented, which only meant that she had no intention of him. At the very least, she did not regard him as a potential betrothal partner.
Thinking about her easy-going temperament and the fact that she is the escort of the prince and concubine, she will return to Beijing soon. Even if he is interested in her, there is not much possibility for him to have a relationship with her, right?
Thinking of this, he frowned and suddenly felt that the vegetable buns in his mouth had no taste.
After breakfast, Gu Xiyan left her husband behind and walked side by side with Jian Junyi: "Master Jian has made great achievements this time and is an important witness. He should go to the capital with us, right?"
p>
Jian Junyi glanced at Hu Die subconsciously. Hu Die didn't notice his gaze at all and was looking around.
When Gu Xiyan saw this small detail, the corners of her lips raised: "With a talent like Master Jian, it would be a pity to stay in Suzhou. Has Master Jian ever thought about working for His Highness and going to the capital to show off his skills?"
Jian Junyi was stunned and subconsciously glanced at Hu Die again.
His first reaction was that if he worked for His Highness, would there be a possibility for him and Hu Die to take the next step?
"Master Jian can take his time to think about important matters related to Mr. Jian's future. In the end, Mr. Jian still has to go to the capital. He has plenty of time, so he can think about it slowly and not in a hurry."
Gu Xiyan watched the fire with a cave, and said to Hu Die: "Xiaodie, I want to stay alone with the master for a while, and you can accompany Mr. Jian."
Hu Die didn't know why: "Master Jian is such a big man, why do you want me to accompany him?"
Gu Xiyan thought she was just a lump of elm wood, and she never understood.
Jian Junyi likes Hu Die's outspoken nature: "If Miss Xiaodie is busy, you don't need to pay attention to me."
"I'm not that busy. I just don't understand why I am asked to accompany Mr. Jian. I am not the master, and Mr. Jian is not the guest. Why are you asking me to accompany Mr. Jian?" Hu Die is still struggling with this problem.
A smile flashed in Jian Junyi's eyes, and the corners of her lips could not help but rise: "Maybe it's just because the princess wants to be alone with His Highness, so it's okay to just send the girl to me."
Hu Die suddenly realized: "So that's what happened. It's all my fault that I didn't think of this."
This was the first time that Jian Junyi saw a woman who rejected him so ruthlessly, "It's not that the girl is not smart, it's that the girl is straightforward and simple. These are the girl's advantages."
Hu Die stopped and said to Jian Junyi seriously: "I didn't expect that Young Master Jian looks so hard to get close to, but he is such a soft person. When I first met Young Master Jian, I felt that Young Master Jian had the words 'Keep strangers away' attached to him.
' tag."
Jian Junyi glanced at Zhou Mu and Gu Xiyan who were walking side by side in front of her, lowered her voice and asked, "Have you ever thought about what kind of man you will marry in the future?"
If it were any other woman, she would definitely be shy when it came to talking about marriage. But after this brief contact, he was sure that Hu Die would not only not be shy, but also be unguarded against him.
