"A'ke has met the lord, and hopes to take care of him."
Xiao Jiang said with a smile:
"Miss Ake, it's rare for you mother and daughter to meet each other. Master Jiu Nan has also left. Let's go to the town ahead first."
The three of them returned to the tea shop. Because there were three of them, Xiao Jiang couldn't ride a horse. Even if the horse could bear it, he couldn't hold one in front and sit on the back.
A'ke was carrying the package Jiu Nan left for her. There was a sword manual in it, which was a compensation for not being taught her complete skills all these years. She was tangled in her heart and followed Xiao Jiang all the way, which was less than ten miles away.
The sky began to rain. Xiao Jiang only carried an umbrella with him. Outsiders did not dare to exchange the umbrella for it. He had better let the two women hold close to him and pull the horse forward.
After going around a mountain road, the three of them finally saw a ruined temple in front of them. After entering, Xiao Jiang was fine. Although the two girls were not soaked, their backs were soaked by the rain.
Chen Yuanyuan was not shy, Xiao Jiang had looked at her whole body anyway, but Ake was so shy that she didn't know how to stand.
Xiao Jiang cleared a piece of ground in a raintight corner of the ruined temple, piled some broken wooden blocks and built a fire, and asked the two women to sit down and warm themselves by the fire. He stood in front of the temple door and watched the rain getting heavier and heavier.
"The sky has unpredictable winds and clouds, and people have misfortune and fortune. The wind has no shape and the clouds are impermanent. Things in the world cannot be determined or guessed."
Zha Jiangtao and Ake, who were beside the fire, also sniffed at the aroma. The aroma was indescribable. The more they smelled, the more fragrant they became. The more they smelled, the more special they felt about being soaked in a hot spring.
The governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang was a first-class official, and he was the most popular in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. This was the most fertile position in the entire imperial court. You must know that in addition to managing the local area, that official position also controlled tens of thousands of small troops. He was like a local emperor.
Akko's body was trembling slightly, something like that actually happened, and you found that you could only accept your fate, not to mention that you were originally assigned to Xiao Jiang by Chen Yuanyuan, but what happened to you made it difficult for you to accept it for a while.
"My lordship wants it, but you are still willing. The awkwardness is only temporary."
Shame, embarrassment, those are nothing, you care about yourself, but without Ake, you have to accept it all. Xiao Jiang's character will definitely have the final say, but if he makes a decision, it would be impossible to check Jiang like this
I will definitely give you seven chances.
Compared to Ake, who was doing this for the first time, Chen Yuanyuan is a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Although you were also panicked by everything that happened, when Xiao Jiang showed his femininity and decided to come up, you understood that last night was what he meant.
But that intention gave you and Akko a real guarantee to worry about.
After a while, Ake figured it out. Just as Xiao Jiang said, not all emperors are bad, and even the majority of the people are bad. You nodded in your heart and said loudly:
"Ake."
"Chen Yuanyuan has been wandering all his life. He only hopes to be able to accompany Sir Alex and A Ke for the rest of his life. But the relationship is not a bit awkward now. I hope Sir Alex will try his best to let you serve together."
The eight of us noticed something strange. The fragrance made our eyes stop trance-like. Especially when Xiao Jiang sat under the haystack next to the fire, the two men stared at me in a trance, and their breathing stopped becoming slow.
stand up.
"If someone knew about it, where would you put your face?"
Xiao Jiang looked at Feng Yu and thought. At this moment, Akko suddenly looked under the broken altar of the ruined temple. She stabbed the altar with her sword, and heard a crash as the altar fell down, and a jar fell directly on it.
It broke into pieces, and a cloud of white powder came out.
"Ake understands that before you were not the Lord's men, my identity could only be put aside."
Originally, it only took one day to go to Taiyuan, because Xiao Jiang was not interested in such ordinary things. The eight of them rested on the road for another eight days before retreating into Taiyuan City. When they arrived at the governor's Yamen, Xiao Jiang just showed his official seal to the guard and planned to enter the Yamen.
Yes, a small internal guard from the Yamen ran out, and when he saw Xiao Jiang, he shouted:
It turns out that the imperial edict was issued seven days after Kangxi, and the guard had not arrived for a day. If Cha Jiang was delayed on the road, I would not have been ordered to go to Jiangnan to take over the post of governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang at that time.
Zha Jiangtao smiled softly and leaned his face on Xiao Jiang's shoulder and said:
The wind inside was getting slower and gentler, and the rain was getting lighter and lighter. I didn’t know when Xiao Jiang had not pushed down the temple door with a wooden stick. The fire in the temple was shaking more and more enchantingly in the sound of wind, and the shadows under the wall also became enchanting.
Strange and cold.
Xiao Jiang smiled awkwardly, that's not a man, or many men are definitely talking about that matter. Once you become a man, you will hate studying that aspect of things even more than a woman.
Yuanyuan, Ake, the worst they can do now is to think wildly. Things will happen to others. You, Xiao Jiang, will naturally make them suffer and disappoint them, so they are worried about following you. No matter what happened before, they can also be at peace.
Life."
Similarly, when Xiao Jiang looked at the two men, he also stopped thinking wildly in his mind. I quickly sat down between the two men, while Chen Yuanyuan and A'ke leaned into my arms as if instinctively.
Akko's whole brain is in a blur. You feel that you have lost your innocence. But if it is just you, then the bad image is nothing. Even if there is no other person, it is abnormal in that world, but the abnormal thing is
You are right, you closed your eyes tightly and murmured:
As Xiao Jiang spoke, Chen Yuanyuan and A Ke, who were both wearing veils in front of me, knelt down. The guard took the imperial edict and finished announcing it, but Xiao Jiang had a blank look on his face.
"There was nothing wrong with the ashes of the incense burner last night. You have all been tricked. It's over now. There's no point in worrying about past regrets. They think that once they get involved with these emperors, there's nothing wrong with that kind of thing.
Xiao Jiang turned around when he heard the noise. Before the powder spread under the fire, the powder was directly evaporated by the flames and turned into mist that spread throughout the ruined temple. A faint sweet fragrance came from outside Xiao Jiang's nostrils. I twitched my nostrils and said loudly:
Cha Jiang, who had already woken up, knew the fear in the hearts of the two men. At that time, I had to use my woman's nature and initiative. I hugged the two of them tightly with both hands and said:
Chen Yuanyuan took A Ke's hand heavily and said:
"Xiao Dutong, Your Majesty has no decree."
…
"Both you and Sir Alex can change things now. Since it hasn't happened yet, you have to get used to him before. You care about other people's opinions and don't have Sir Alex to make decisions. As men, you can do something bad to Sir Alex.
A good wife can't, so don't put the Lord in trouble."
Xiao Jiang had no time to accept the imperial edict, but now my status requires me to accept the edict.
"It smells really good. Why does the ashes from the incense burner in the ruined temple smell like that?"
"Your Majesty, Xiao Jiang accepts the order."
Xiao Jiang opened his mouth, but Akko shook his head and said:
It was windy and rainy all night, and Chen Yuanyuan and A'ke woke up at the same time at dawn. When they saw each other and themselves hugging Xiao Jiang tightly without any cover, your expressions changed.
