Chapter 237 Hot Congee on a Cold Night

Daoqin's trip to the capital was not as smooth as she had imagined.

Zhou Yin, who was not as prosperous as before, now has a newly renovated mansion and holds an important position in the Royal Guards, paying special attention to his own safety. Most of the guards in the mansion are skilled and patrol day and night. It really takes a lot of effort to rob a big living person from the backyard without even realizing it. In the end, Xiao Dingfei, who had been struggling in the market, had an idea. He sought training from the Heavenly Education School in the past to assassinate female assassins appointed by the imperial court. He disguised himself as an embroidery lady and carried a large box filled with clothes inside, and then carried a large box filled with living people out. It was like stealing the sky and changing the sun, performing magic under Zhou Yin's watchful eye.

Going out of the city gate was another round of turmoil.

That's how I brought the person to Zhending Mansion.

Jiang Xuening naturally knew Yao Niang's fear, but who would give back her vivid Fangyin?

Even pity is suppressed by hatred.

She didn't say much, just withdrew her hand and ordered, "Take the person down and watch carefully. They are also people with bodies, so be careful."

Dao Qin took the person down first.

Yaoniang seems to have millions of words to say, but she is already clumsy and unable to speak.

Besides, Jiang Xuening doesn't want to listen either.

After the person left, she sat alone in the room for a while, and saw the starry sky outside the window, the crescent moon gradually filling up. She felt a sense of sadness spreading in her heart, without any drowsiness.

So he got up and walked out.

The soldiers patrolling at night all slowed down their steps and stopped to call out "Miss Ning Er" when they saw her. She only nodded and didn't stop, heading straight towards the most secluded courtyard where Xie Wei lived.

However, in the late night courtyard, it was surprisingly quiet.

Although the room was lit, there was no one in it.

Only Xiaobao sat in the hallway outside, smiling at her as soon as he saw her. Without her asking, he said, "Sir, I'm going to the kitchen."

Jiang Xuening only felt puzzled and thought to herself, "What else is Xie Ju'an doing in the kitchen after all this late night?"?

She didn't ask much and turned around before going.

Outside the kitchen, I saw a light inside, and the sound of a knife that was neither light nor heavy, just right next to the chopping board, came in a delicate and dense manner. I could hear that the person using the knife was skilled in cutting vegetables.

Jiang Xuening walked in and glanced at her before saying, "Are you hungry?"

There are clean bowls and plates on the kitchen counter.

The stove is burning hot Congee.

Xie Wei stood by the stove, rolled up his sleeves, lowered his gaze, and pushed the yam on the chopping board into small pieces. He then looked up at her and said indifferently, "I'm not hungry, but maybe you want to eat something tonight."

The kitchen was no match for the study, only two oil lamps were lit, which was very dim. But such an insufficiently bright light precisely outlined his tall figure, casting a faint shadow on his neck, as if shrouded in a real layer of worldly fireworks.

Jiang Xuening surprisingly felt a tinge of sourness in her heart.

This person always knows everything.

She once thought that if she were really with Xie Ju'an, he would be so powerful and not really easy to get along with. He was both paranoid and crazy inside, as Yan Lin had said, very tired and even uncomfortable.

But in the past six months

I spent half of my time learning the piano and half of my time traveling. From eating to using, from people to things, I never had an unpleasant experience. Xie Ju'an always arranges everything well and doesn't let her interfere in anything that shouldn't be her concern; He didn't ask much about the things she was supposed to take care of.

Learn to play the piano. Sometimes I feel tired and lazy, so I use a ruler to beat her.

She just pretended to cry a few times, and he grabbed her hand and pursed his lips, making it difficult for him to hit her hard. In the end, most of them had to let her go. They even had to make a pot of tea for her, serve a plate of Dim sum, and let her have a rest before continuing.

But there are also times when he gets tough.

At such times, Xie Ju'an finds it difficult to spare her lightly. Twice, when she was aroused with anger, she stripped half of her clothes in broad daylight, pressed her against the wall, and pressed her face against the window pane, causing her to feel scared and her whole body to soften. Then, she asked her repeatedly, "Do you still dare?"?

She said she didn't dare, so he let him go;

If you have a stubborn temper and don't admit your mistake, it's asking for trouble. After practicing the piano, your hands may not be sore, and your legs will definitely be soft.

However, afterwards, it was often Xie Ju'an's turn to coax her, embrace her and kiss away the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she only smiled and said, "I'll make you tough next time.".

Jiang Xuening truly felt that he had integrated both the sage and the devil into one.

But no matter when, his gaze at her was always peaceful and deep. Sometimes when she talks to others, she occasionally looks up and often touches his gaze. At first, she discovered that this person would still feel a little uncomfortable; But after a while, he became openly and candid.

She once asked, "Isn't it enough?"?

Xie Ju'an didn't answer her at first.

Until they captured Jinan Prefecture, he was honored with two more roasted spring lanterns at the celebration banquet. That night, he took a handful of chicken head rice from somewhere and sat on the foot pedal next to her bed, peeling it off one by one for her to eat.

She thought he was drunk.

Xie Wei said, "I am very clear headed.".

At that moment, there was no light in the room. His eyes seemed to have been soaked in water, and he leaned over to kiss her, as if afraid of shattering a dream. He then asked her, "You won't leave, will you?"?

Jiang Xuening remained silent.

She really didn't know what was surging in her heart at that moment.

It was a long time before I answered: I won't leave.

Jiang Xuening did not ask him how he learned that he occasionally loved to eat these things, but he rarely met Yan Lin. Occasionally, there were always other people present, and after a few pleasantries, each person had their own business to do.

But today, she didn't say anything or do anything, but Xie Wei seemed to know what she was thinking.

She really wants to talk to someone.

Just knowing that he knew everything, he remained silent, as if there was no need to say anything more.

Jiang Xuening sat down quietly on the small wooden stool beside the fire, watched Xie Wei put the diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced diced Congee, took a spoon and stirred it slowly. Finally, he said, "I haven't really killed anyone yet."

Xie Wei stirred it up and covered the lid of the clay pot.

He also sat down by the fireplace, next to her, and his gaze fell on the burning charcoal fire, especially calm: "There will always be a first time."

Jiang Xuening slowly hugged her knee, bent down, blinked, as if thinking more and not speaking.

Xie Wei was right beside her.

After waiting for a long time, it was completely quiet outside. Then I put some of the cooked Congee into a bowl and gave it to her. The two of them didn't move any more tables or tables, but sat by the stove. On this slightly cold frosty night, they ate half a hot bowl and waited for the red charcoal fire to gradually dim before leaving the kitchen together.

Xie Wei escorted her back to the house, knowing that she was not in a very good mood. He guarded and stuffed her into bed, kissed her lips, and said, "If you don't practice the piano tomorrow morning, you can sleep in."

Jiang Xuening was completely wrapped in bed, her face exposed.

She smiled and said, "You've been quite a gentleman lately."

Xie Wei looked up at her and said, "If you want to die in the middle of the night, I will satisfy you now."

Jiang Xuening immediately shrank her head and chuckled again, but she didn't dare to provoke him anymore. She obediently closed her eyes.

Xie Wei looked at it for a while before saying, "I'm leaving."

Jiang Xuening opened her eyes again to look at him.

Xie Wei placed his hand on her forehead and gently kissed her drooping eyelashes before truly letting go. He walked out of her room and closed the door when he left.

The stars and moon are already sparse.

A cool breeze blows across my face.

He was supposed to go back, but as he reached the corner of the corridor, he stopped and looked at the tightly closed door of Jiang Xuening for a moment before finally returning to his own room.

Daoqin has just returned.

Jianshu is organizing the table and desk.

Xie Wei came in and lowered his eyes, his indifferent eyes tinged with a hint of darkness. He sat down at the piano table for a long time without speaking.

Daoqin and Jianshu were both by his side for a long time, guessing a bit.

The sword book hesitates to speak.

Dao Qin, however, spoke quickly and said, "Keeping it is a disaster. If you have enough time, why don't you just kill it and eradicate the root cause?"

There is no doubt that Zhou Yinzhi will die, and neither Jiang Xuening nor Xie Wei will save his life.

But this mother is a disaster.

Unfortunately, she still has a child in her belly, how can she know what she will develop in the future?

Xie Wei lowered his eyes and looked at the scar on his left palm. He remembered Jiang Xuening's gentle gaze at him just now, as well as the heavy snow in the palace many years ago. He slowly clenched his palm and said, "No need."

Dao Qin Jian Shu all looked at him.

He said, "If Zhou Yinzhi dies, it's his own fault. Ning Er and I have a clear conscience and don't need to kill him completely."

Let go of the Heavenly Sect and conquer the world. He calculates everything and never shows mercy.

Sometimes, in order to ensure that everything is safe and sound, they are caught in the gap between the court and the Heavenly Cult, and have done things stained with blood that are unknown. They are by no means virtuous people.

To Yao Niang, he did have a murderous heart.

Just because he himself has walked all the way, he knows deeply the power of hatred. Just a tomb of three hundred righteous children, with the vengeful soul still lingering. The snow more than twenty years ago still piled up in his heart, yet to be completely melted

Xie Wei asked again, "How is the situation in Beijing?"

Dao Qin said, "Chaos has arisen. The Royal Guards have secretly hunted and killed many courtiers, causing panic everywhere. When my subordinates left the city, they heard the wind that Yuan Ji had also tidied up the situation. They probably saw that the situation was not good, so they secretly sneaked out of the city."

Xie Wei sneered coldly.

Jian Shu asked, "In his early years, this person often opposed his master. This time..."

Xie Weidao said, "I have Meng Yang to deal with him, and I'm not sure if he's already lying on the grave. It was just using him to balance Wan Xiuzi. If I were to teach him to fight in the capital today, he would no longer be useful. It would be better to die earlier."

Jianshu nodded.

Just Dao Qin frowned, as if there was still something to say.

Xie Wei glanced up and asked, "What else is there?"

Dao Qin didn't dare to say, "There's news coming from the palace that seems to be sending someone to lobby and work together to suppress the Heavenly Sect first..."

This is simply impossible.

But this is not enough to make Daoqin hesitate.

===Kunning Section 293===

Xie Wei thought of something, and the corner of his eye suddenly twitched slightly. He asked in a deep voice, "Who will Shen Lang send?"

Daoqin buried her head and lowered her voice a lot: "Mr. Zhang from the Ministry of Justice."
