Chapter 24 Royal Hunt
“Say what it looks like!” Jiang Luo urged.
“Like bewitched! His eyes were slack, as if he couldn’t hear him calling, he walked blindly into the river, and jumped into the river without hesitation.”
“Then what are you doing, why did you let your brother jump off?!” Jiang Changning asked calmly, not believing it was such an unfounded reason. It’s just that she didn’t see Mother Jiang’s dazed expression after hearing the bewitching.
The servant felt a little guilty: “At first, the slave thought that the young master saw something rare and wanted to take a closer look, but it was too late when he realized it. The young master is so strong that the slave couldn’t stop him. Fortunately, the young master seemed to wake up after entering the water and didn’t struggle anymore. “
Jiang Changning wanted to ask something else, when the doctor just came out.
“Doctor, is there something wrong with my son?” Mother Jiang hurried forward.
“Master Ling is fine, but fell into the water and was startled and choked, and then passed out. Wait for me to prescribe two prescriptions to soothe the nerves and warm the body.”
“Fortunately, fortunately. Thank you doctor.”
“Hongxing, send the doctor out of the house.” Jiang’s mother panicked, but Jiang Changning had to do a good job in the aftermath, winking at Hongxing and handing over the money bag to send the doctor out of the house. One is to thank Jiang Changbai for saving Jiang Changbai’s life, and the other is to know if the boy’s strange power and confusion have mentioned to the doctor that Jiang Changbai is a person who is going to be an official, so he can’t get involved with these, so as to save himself from talking about it in the future.
“Changning, go back to your room to rest first, I’ll just watch over Changbai.” Jiang Changning was about to go to see his brother with Jiang’s mother, but was stopped by Jiang’s mother. I was surprised for a moment.
Jiang Luo followed Mother Jiang, and while Mother Jiang turned her head, she slowly raised her lips and smiled at Jiang Changning, with a sinister look.
Suddenly thought of something, Jiang Changning raised his head suddenly, this matter has something to do with Jiang Luo? Jiang Changning didn’t hear the conversation between her and the system, Jiang Changning thought it was just a coincidence, but recalling what happened at the flower viewing banquet, it is not a power that people can control…
Sitting on Jiang Changbai’s bedside, Jiang’s mother felt exhausted when she saw Jiang Luo, but she still remembered what the old Hou Ye said in her heart, saying that Jiang Luo was good for Changbai, so she didn’t let her go out.
Hong Xing came back after seeing the doctor off, and saw her girl standing alone outside Jiang Changbai’s door. Although she didn’t understand what happened, she couldn’t help feeling a little sad.
Walked over and called softly: “Girl.”
Jiang Changning came back to his senses, closed his eyes, and put away all expressions: “Let’s go.”
…
It took two hours for Jiang Changbai to wake up coughing.
”Changbai” Jiang’s mother was overjoyed, and hurriedly called someone to help him up, and called someone to bring the soup that was warming on the stove: “You are finally awake.”
“It made my mother worry.” Jiang Changbai tried his best to recall what happened before he fell into the water, but he couldn’t remember that piece of memory, which was so blank. He only remembered that there seemed to be something in the water leading him there.
“It’s good that you’re fine, but do you still remember why you fell into the water?”
“My son is ashamed. It’s just that he was dazzled and saw a water plant growing strangely by the river. He wanted to observe it for a while. He didn’t want to slip in because of the soft mud by the river. I hope my mother will hide this from my sisters for me. It’s really a shame.” You don’t have a bright face.” Jiang Changbai couldn’t think of it, so he made it up to fool him.
“Let’s rest at home tomorrow, and send someone to ask for a leave.”
“No way, mother.” Jiang Changbai rubbed the tip of his nose in embarrassment, “I’m fine, it’s okay to rest for a night, please don’t say anything about it, if it spreads, I’m afraid it will make other colleagues laugh. “
Seeing that he is in good spirits, Jiang’s mother no longer persisted, stretched out her hand to pull Jiang Changbai’s quilt up, and said, “If that’s the case, then you can rest well.”
“Thank you, mother.”
Out of the house, Mother Jiang approached the housekeeper to ask how Zhuangzi’s affairs were arranged, and urged him to implement them as soon as possible.
Although Jiang Changbai said it was because of his negligence, Mother Jiang always remembered the words of the old Hou Ye, and she couldn’t take this risk.
…
I didn’t see my brother yesterday, and I heard that he went to the palace early in the morning, so he must be in good health. Jiang Changning was relieved.
Jiang’s mother sent someone to say that there was no need to call early today, so Jiang Changning and Hong Xing simply nested in their small yard.
It rained some time ago, and the room was a little damp. Taking advantage of the sunshine today, I just took out some ancient books to dry in the sun.
Hong Xing moved out the recliner, and Chang Ning lay down lazily on the rare occasion to rest, holding a book of mountain chores that he had read halfway through in his hand, and when he looked up, he could see small yellow daisies blooming in the corner.
She was lying on her back, the warm sun was shining on her face, her fair complexion was slightly tanned, and the ink smell of books was in her breath.
In the last life, I’m afraid that I couldn’t even have such a time. She stretched out her hand to cover her face and was slightly hot from the sun. She was so warm that she almost shed tears. What I asked for was never wealth and glory.
…
“What? You want to bring Sister Ning and Luo’er with them for the royal hunt?” Jiang’s mother turned pale with fright, and knocked the teacup on the ground carelessly by her sleeve, and heard a loud noise.
Jiang Changbai was still drinking tea slowly, thinking that Mother Jiang was overjoyed.
The weather has been good recently. I heard that Jiuyong Mountain has beautiful scenery, birds are contending, and it is full of vitality.
The emperor became interested, and wanted to go out for a walk all winter, so he invited all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to enjoy the spring scenery and hunt around the mountains.
Received the news, Jiang Changbai asked for grace.
Mother Jiang was planning to find an excuse to send Sister Ning out in the next two days, but she was caught off guard by this news, so what to do.
Jiang Changbai looked longingly, “Many noble children will go to the Jiuyong Mountain hunt this time. Such a grand event, and taking advantage of the good spring, I will naturally bring my younger sisters. What’s more, the emperor has authorized the three daughters of the Marquis Mansion to participate. Mother doesn’t have to Don’t worry, I’ll take care of them then.”
I’m not worried about this… Forget it, I have already made it clear in front of the royal family: “If that’s the case, you can take them there.”
When the news came, Jiang Changning had just put the books into the study with Hong Xing. In her previous life, she had also heard about the hunt at Jiuyong Mountain, but she had no chance to participate at that time. She never thought that she would have the opportunity to see it this time.
“That’s great, girl! I heard that I can see the emperor and queen during this hunt!” Hong Xing was sincerely happy for her girl, as many high-ranking prostitutes have no chance to admire the majesty of the royal family.
After all, Jiang Changning has experienced two lifetimes, so it is difficult for him to have major emotional ups and downs. He only reveals a trace of expectation in his eyes.
Jiang Luo received a reminder from the system, [Host, this hunting has a chance to meet important raiders, please be prepared. ]
…
In the blink of an eye, it’s time for hunting. Jiang Luo has been too busy with work recently. She asked for many rewards from Jiang’s mother, and went out to buy new clothes, intending to show off in Jiuyong Mountain. Even those who can attend the scene are mostly wealthy and noble people who are not ordinary people.
“Girl, don’t you wear other jewelry anymore?” Hong Xing took the inlaid gold phoenix hairpin and the lotus pattern enamel tassel with her left and right hands respectively, and looked at Jiang Changning who only had a gold-plated white jade hairpin with a swallowtail butterfly on her head in front of her. .
She was wearing a tea-white Yuehua skirt embroidered with Strelitzia orchids, and a goose-yellow silk blouse with persimmon pedicle pattern. She had a slender waist, and the pleats of the skirt spread out when she was walking, like a white peony in full bloom.
The skin is as white as frost and snow, and a pair of emerald water autumn eyes seem to be full of water, which makes people afraid to look more.
“Well, put it away.”
Before I walked out of the courtyard, I saw that the peonies in the garden were in full bloom, and the petals were wet with dew, making them look delicate and beautiful. Jiang Changning reached out and plucked the most brilliant white peony in bloom, put his hands on his temples, and smiled at Hong Xing: “It’s not so thin.”
Jiang Changning’s eyebrows and eyes were curved, and Hong Xing stared blankly, inexplicably thinking of a poem she once heard her girl recite: Daimei’s eyebrows are beautiful and beautiful, and her green temples are full of spring smoke.
Jiang Changning had already walked out the door, Hong Xing reacted and quickly followed.
