Xie Wei really looked at her for a long time.
Jiang Xuening felt that his gaze was a bit cold.
Xie Wei surprisingly asked, "Does Yan Lin know?"
Although she never asked explicitly, Jiang Xuening could probably guess that Xie Wei knew about her relationship with Yan Lin, or rather, Yan Lin's feelings towards her. I originally thought this person was a bit too lenient, but when I remembered the speculation that You Fangyin had brought up to me in the previous life, I also felt that if this speculation was true, it was understandable for Xie Wei to care about this matter.
As for Yan Lin
She likes Zhang Zhe. He probably doesn't know, after all, how long has she just been reborn? On the day of Ke Tiexiao Tower, those words were not spoken, and Yan Lin also understood. He just didn't want to hear her speak in person, so he told her not to speak.
Xie Wei tugged at the corner of his lips with a cold smile and said, "If I were Yan Lin, I would peel off your skin and slap the back of your body. I have never heard that you used to know Zhang Zhe, and even in the past, you secretly admired him. Even if you saw love today, it may not be wishful thinking. Although you like people, they may not be able to climb up to you."
Jiang Xuening listened to the first half of the sentence but felt a chill.
Upon hearing the last sentence, he almost jumped up and felt a little embarrassed: "You're just climbing high, talking nonsense!"
This looks like someone has stepped on their tail, showing some teeth and claws.
Xie Wei couldn't bear to see her.
His gaze deepened and he fell silent as if in a cold pond: "I only spoke Zhang Zhe once, and then you jumped. You can't hold your breath, and in just a few words, you reveal your weaknesses. Do you think that I Xie Wei is a good person, trustworthy enough, or do you think that everyone is good and not guarded against anyone?"
Jiang Xuening suddenly shuddered.
Xie Wei calmly said, "If I were you, who I like would always be hidden in my heart. I won't reveal it to anyone, let alone let others know. If I meet you today, I won't do anything to you for now. If I meet someone else in the future and want to deal with you or take control of you, I will first go and make things difficult for Zhang Zhe. At that time, let's take a look at how to write the four words' harm others, harm oneself '. It's truly worth playing with Yan Lin. Stupid is just as foolish."
He has never spoken so rudely before.
Jiang Xuening didn't even expect him to scold her, even Yan Lin scolded him together. She looked at him blankly for a moment, and felt that he had said nothing wrong: she was so happy and confused that she revealed her feelings in front of Xie Wei?
But upon reflection, it was clear that Xie Wei had seen through it before she admitted it.
Suddenly, there was a wave of fear in my heart.
Xie Wei was just scaring her, so that she could take her memory seriously for a long time. Seeing that she was finally scared, she knew she had listened to what she said. Although she didn't know why it was getting worse, she didn't have time to waste it here.
He handed the lantern directly to her hand.
He only said, "It's too late, let's go back."
Jiang Xuening picked up the palace lamp, but it was the only one. Subconsciously, he wanted to ask, "What about you?" However, Xie Wei had already turned his back and walked along the high palace wall towards the direction of leaving the palace.
The darkness around him weighed heavily on him.
This person is different from Zhang Zhe.
Zhang Zhe even walks in the darkness, making people feel that there is light on his body; After Xie Wei left the light and walked into the darkness, he merged with the darkness as if he had come from it.

After experiencing the incident of raiding Yangzhi Zhai, everyone went back in shock and was still a bit scared. They didn't dare to just go back to their room like this. Instead, they gathered together in the Flowing Water Pavilion, drinking hot tea to suppress their shock.
As it was discovered that it was framed by a palace maid, no one dared to ask the palace maid to serve at this moment.
There are a total of seven people in the pavilion, excluding Jiang Xuening who has not yet returned.
Chen Shuyi said nonchalantly, "She was lucky and brave enough to directly confront the Empress Dowager and even claim to be a courtier rather than a palace maid. It should be investigated by the Royal Guards or the Ministry of Justice. Only then did she get away with the arrival of Lord Chen and Lord Zhang. Otherwise, we might not be able to see her alive."
Yao Rongrong somehow remembered that detail.
At that time, the eunuch who went to the Ministry of Justice to find someone happened to be kneeling outside the Kunning Palace that day.
She whispered to herself, "Is it really luck..."
Xiao Shu glanced at her without interrupting.
Zhou Baoying blinked and kept looking outside the door, "Sister Ning, didn't she go to thank you? It should have ended in a few words. Why haven't you come back now?"
Yao Xi's face darkened slightly.
You Yue observed her words and expressions, and almost immediately noticed this small abnormality. Her mind turned and she remembered Yao Xi's relationship with Zhang Zhe. Suddenly, she understood what Yao Xi was concerned about.
She is never afraid of adding fuel to the fire.
Even though he covered his lips and smiled, he said, "The grace of saving lives is like sending charcoal in the snow. Of course, I need to say a few more words. However, I didn't expect that although this legendary Zhang Zhe looked a bit cold, he was a talented and upright person. Sister Yao Xi is so lucky."
Even if you know that You Yue is such a person who stirs up trouble and causes trouble everywhere, she has been warned by Xiao Shu and Chen Shuyi that this person is not trustworthy. Even if she is not far away, she should not believe or have deep friendships. But who can calm down after hearing these words?
Zhang Zanai is her future husband.
Gua Tian Li Xia, Jiang Xuening should avoid suspicion no matter what! Are you a wild girl raised in the countryside without proper rules!
Yao Xi heavily lowered the tea cup in her hand.
Of course, Chen Shuyi also knew what You Yue was, but the enemy of the enemy was a friend. She rarely agreed with a sentence: "Yes, Yao Xi's sister is so lucky. But Jiang Xuening was unlucky. Although she escaped a disaster this time, she offended the Empress Dowager harshly.". Now everyone is watching. The empress dowager may not treat her like that, but she will still be in the palace in the future. Even if her Royal Highness the Princess Royal Highness Princess protects her, it will be hard for her to live, and she may not be able to please her like now. "
How many people in the palace don't step low and hold high?
If you know that the Empress Dowager doesn't like it and rushes to please her, it's all seeking death.
When Chen Shuyi said these words, some people were gloating, while others were somewhat worried.
However, behind the scenes, people's words are also afraid of being heard.
After all, it was not without Jiang Xuening's experience. At this moment, the situation was very special, and when she heard it, she mistakenly thought they had framed her. That was truly unjust, so she quickly changed the topic.
You Yue thought that she had been in the palace for several days and would be able to leave in a few more days to rest. So she thought about what she had told the palace before entering the palace, and suddenly felt that this was an excellent opportunity.
I don't know, but these people in the palace are very knowledgeable.
When she heard them talking about the scenery of Yangzhou, she interjected, "I heard that the salt merchants in Yangzhou are all wealthy and their lives are very luxurious. I'm afraid they're not inferior to us either."
Xiao Shu said, "Salt is popular all over the world. Anyone who does a bigger business has money. Moreover, the Jianghuai Salt Field is a leading large salt field in various prefectures, with abundant salt production. Natural salt merchants gather and compete with each other, and they never tire of food and delicacy. Not only are they better than us, but they are not necessarily inferior to those in the palace."
Everyone has never been to Yangzhou, and upon hearing this, they couldn't help but marvel.
However, Youyue's gaze flickered and she said, "I've heard that the Ziliujing Salt Field in Sichuan is also very famous. How come you rarely hear that the salt merchants over there have money?"
Now there was no need for Xiao Shu to speak. Chen Shuyi glanced at her indifferently and said, "The Sichuan Road has always been difficult to pass through, and since ancient times, it has been closed and no news has been transmitted. The salt field in Ziliujing cannot be considered a first-class large salt field. How can it compare with Yangzhou?"
It seems that no one knows about Ren Weizhi yet.
You Yue thought to herself about the legendary "Zhuotong Well". If it were true, Ziliujing could also become a first-class salt field. If she could get a share of it
Just as she was about to inquire more about the world's salt affairs, Jiang Xuening returned.
Fang Miao saw it first and shouted.
Chen Shuyi smiled meaningfully and said, "Why has Miss Jiang been away for so long?"
Jiang Xuening, still holding a lantern in her hand, stopped and stood under the eaves, only blowing it out with her eyelids. She looked back at her and said calmly, "I met Mr. Xie in the road and was stopped to ask a few questions."
Everyone saw that she was not very energetic, and then remembered that she always received training at Xie Wei's side, so they thought that she had once again failed to win over.
===Kunning Section 88===
Now it's inexplicably a bit comfortable.
Zhou Baoying opened her big eyes and said softly, "Mr. Xie, don't you scold you again?"
Jiang Xuening didn't want to participate in the tea party when she saw everyone sitting in the room again, so she told a small lie and said, "It's okay, you just asked me to continue learning the piano tomorrow."
A few people don't believe it's so easy, they all sneer in their hearts.
Jiang Xuening only said, "I was really scared and tired today, and it also implicated you all. I apologize for being scared together with me. I'm a bit tired, so I'll go back to my room and sleep first. Everyone, please rest earlier."
After speaking, she casually hung the lantern under the corridor and returned to her room along the corridor.
The room that was previously rummaged over has been properly organized.
But when Jiang Xuening sat back on the seemingly neat bed, she still felt a chill, as if she was in a cold prison.
*
In the next two days, there was a strange silence in the palace.
Jiang Xuening has never heard any more rumors.
Perhaps it is still being passed down, but not a single one can be passed down to Yangzhi Zhai, and the whole world seems to have nothing wrong. She could only glimpse the hidden undercurrent beneath the tranquility when she looked up as she walked through the long palace path and saw occasional curious gazes from palace attendants.
The accidental encounter that night did not seem to change her relationship with Xie Wei.
As usual, there will be two classes in three days, and practicing the piano will not be missed.
She just finds it difficult to calm down in her heart.
Xie Wei repeatedly asked her to sit in front of the qin for a few days, but it was difficult to smooth out her impatience. Later, he simply gave up and asked her to sit next to him, while he sat on the desk, buried his head in the documents, and handled the piles of official documents, even speaking less.
Sometimes Jiang Xuening would think, perhaps this is Xie Wei's usual appearance.
Until the day before leaving the palace to rest, she finally met Zheng Bao in the corner of the imperial garden.
Zheng Bao told her quietly that his Royal Highness Royal Highness Princess and his Royal Highness Linzi King went to the Cining Palace that night to beg for mercy for the brave marquis's house, which angered the Holy One and the empress dowager. One was punished by foot ban, so he couldn't come to school these days. One was scolded by the Holy One and sent to the temple to kneel for three hours.
She couldn't help but freeze.
Zheng Bao looked up at her again, and a sigh flashed in his eyes. He told her that the palace maid who framed her had died inexplicably on the day she was imprisoned in the Shen Xing Si, and he didn't ask anything.
Jiang Xuening didn't know how she got to the side hall of Fengchen Hall.
She arrived late today.
But Xie Wei hasn't come yet.
She waited for a long time without seeing anyone. Sitting in front of the Jiao'an Guqin, she felt that although the room was warm, all her hands and feet were cold.
The two carved windows are half empty.
A wind sobbing in from outside.
Xie Wei's desk and desk have always been neatly tidied up, with brushes washed clean and hanging on the shelf. Used or unused paper has been pressed with rulers or weights, and the wind only opens a few pages.
However, one page was only lightly placed in the corner of the desk.
With just a flick of the wind, it fell to the ground.
Jiang Xuening's gaze couldn't help but fall. After a moment, before Xie Wei arrived, she got up and walked over to pick it up, looking down at the handwriting on it.
It's not a letter, but a residence newspaper from two days ago!
In this moment, her heart sank into the ice cave!
——The Yongyi Marquis's Mansion is suspected of colluding with the rebels. Before it is discovered, a heavy army will besiege the mansion, and there is no guarantee that it will not leave!
"Buckle buckle."
At this moment, the palace door was knocked on by someone.
The eunuch who was serving outside the palace said through the door leaf, "Young Master, there is someone from your side to deliver a message. You cannot come today due to your busy schedule. I am tired of waiting for Miss Jiang. I will take a break tomorrow and leave the palace. Please rest well for a few days."
Jiang Xuening looked out the window, unaware that the old age was already deep cold.
There are only fifteen days left until the young man's coronation ceremony.
