Chapter 263
Most people with some martial arts have good night vision. Xiao Huaijing easily recognized the figure and frowned.

The year before last, Jiang Xian was able to escape flexibly under his hands. Although he has never seen her fight with others now, he should be stronger than before.

If someone could hurt her, it was for death.

Jiang Xian also found Xiao Huaijing in the middle of the yard. She paused a little, but walked over without changing her expression.

It was only when she got closer that Xiao Huaijing could see her attire clearly.

Although she is dressed in a man's tea-blue straight dress, but she prefers to look at her eyebrows so that anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this is a girl's family.

No... there is one more thing.

It's hair.

Jiang Xian's long hair was scattered all over her shoulders, adding a touch of tenderness to her cold eyebrows.

Xiao Huaijing felt that this was very wrong.

He has seen Jiang Xian dressed up in men's clothing. She is tall, has three-dimensional features, and has no ear holes, and then disguises her face. It shouldn't be this appearance that can find ten kinds of flaws everywhere.

Seeing that Jiang Xian was about to go around him and leave, Xiao Huaijing raised his hand to hold her wrist, and before he could feel the soft touch from his palm, he first received the other's irritable eyes.

Xiao Huaijing was a little helpless.

He immediately let go: "...the guest room has the medicine that Yingqi sent me some time ago. I am unable to move, so go and get it."

Even though he tried his best to ignore the dark marks on the corner of Jiang Xian's clothes, the familiar smell of blood was too obvious, and Xiao Huaijing could tell that Jiang Xian was injured even if he closed his eyes, and it was not serious.

Not waiting for Jiang Xian to refuse, he continued, "It's a medicine made by people in Nanwu. I bought it by chance. It is very effective for trauma. If you take the medicine tonight, you will be better tomorrow."

There will be no scars.

Xiao Huaijing silently added in his heart.

"Because the medicine is effective, I asked someone to buy some later..." Xiao Huaijing paused, "300 taels of silver for a small porcelain bottle, although expensive, is worth it. You can give the medicine money to Yingqi."

It has to be said that after all these years of acquaintance, he is still very clear about Jiang Xian's temperament of wanting to pay for money.

After hearing this, Jiang Xian didn't refuse anymore, after all, she has other things to do tomorrow.

After taking the medicine from Xiao Huaijing, she returned to her bedroom, loosened her collar, and the cloth slid down her skin, revealing an extremely long scar.

The mark ran through the shoulder from the collarbone, and the blood that flowed out was already half clotted, pasting on both sides of the wound, and the brown wine red was imprinted on the fair skin like thick ink, adding an inappropriate layer of coquettishness.

Jiang Xian looked sideways for a moment.

When she chose a more dangerous path, she had already thought about the consequences. After all, there is no reason to only enjoy superior results without taking risks.

But this time, it's true.

Originally, she was just going to sign a contract tonight, and the other details had already been negotiated, but she didn't expect the other party to have evil intentions.

The reason……

Oh, because I don't know where I learned that she is a woman.

It's that simple.

There is also some irony.

She took out a bottle of rice wine from the bottom of the table and began to clean it up. The wound seemed to explode in the skin after the wine, and her ears were buzzing with pain.

Clenching his teeth and enduring the pain, Jiang Xian hastily sterilized the wound with alcohol whose strength was not below the passing limit, frowned and half-closed his eyes, and poured more than half of the medicine powder in the porcelain bottle.

The medicine is indeed a good medicine, not irritating at all, and seems to have an analgesic effect.There was a burst of coolness at the wound, like a piece of ice touched by a hot fire, which slightly relieved the intense burning sensation.

She treated the injury on her calf in the same way, but the main effect of the medicine was not to relieve the pain. She was still in a cold sweat from the pain and was exhausted.

Without any extra strength, she casually scooped up water to wash her face and then fell asleep.

I don't know if it's due to the medicine, but she can still rest at night.

When I woke up the next day and went to see the wound, it was all covered with red scabs.

Jiang Xian was slightly surprised, and felt a desire.

After finishing her work that day, she went to find Xiao Huaijing.

After hearing her reason for coming, Xiao Huaijing was almost choked: "The merchant only has a few bottles, I bought them all, and there are no more."

There is no logical problem in his answer, but Jiang Xian can still hear the perfunctory.

But the other party didn't tell the specific situation, and Jiang Xian didn't force it...and because he said he only had a few bottles, Jiang Xian decided to raise the price.

Seeing her handing the 1000 taels of silver bills to him, Xiao Huaijing was stunned for a moment, half-jokingly: "Do I look like someone who lacks this amount of money? Isn't this a profiteer?"

Thinking about what happened last night, he suddenly mentioned: "Did Miss Jiang ever guess about my identity?"

Who is Xiao Huaijing, of course Jiang Xian has guessed.

When they first met each other, they were a little embarrassed, and it was really not suitable for concealing their identities. Jiang Xian quickly set the target within four.

Then she lost interest.

——It doesn't matter who the four are, it's the same for her.

Xiao Huaijing was in a good mood today, talking about his own affairs uncharacteristically.

He asked: "A long time ago, there was an older brother who was crowned king during the late Emperor's lifetime, with the title of "Chu". Has Miss Jiang heard of it?"

Jiang Xian raised his eyelids, and seemed to have expected Xiao Huaijing's next words.

I saw the person in front of me turning the paper in his hand, and said leisurely: "The king of Chu is gentle, elegant and talented. He was the dream lover of most boudoir girls in the capital more than [-] years ago, and he was also the heir that the late emperor wanted very much..."

He said disrespectful words, but his tone didn't have much respect

"Later, he married the youngest daughter of the Jiang family, who was known as the most talented woman in the capital. People said that he and Miss Jiang's family were both talented and beautiful, and they were a perfect match."

Xiao Huaijing sneered: "It's a pity that it's useless to have a good reputation. Both of them died early, leaving behind only a useless son who managed to survive under the control of the imperial power..."

"So?" Jiang Xian asked lightly, "What do you want to say?"

"King Chu... son?"

"Or should I call you King Yan?"

Xiao Huaijing was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and laughed loudly: "You know, you really do know."

Facing his madness, Jiang Xian remained expressionless, and raised his hands to cover his ears by the way.

Even if she hadn't investigated it, since he said it so clearly, she should have guessed it.

Xiao Huaijing's internal injuries are still not fully healed, he laughed enough, and couldn't help coughing a few more times.

He covered himself with his palms facing his face, and he still did not forget to joke: "If Miss Jiang is interested, why not go to the capital and be a princess for fun?"

"If that's the case, I think I can introduce that drug seller to you. After all, we are all on our own."

He coughed and spoke two sentences intermittently.

Jiang Xian identified this as Xiao Huaijing's post-traumatic schizophrenia.

Xiao Huaijing was even more delighted to see her clearly arrange her expression in his heart.

In the end, this topic was not continued, and the bottle of medicine was still sold at the "original price" of 300 taels of silver.

For the next half month, Jiang Xian stayed in Linyi, so he went back to this house to rest every day.

Xiao Huaijing occasionally mentioned the joke that day in a teasing way, but he didn't get a response. If he said yes, then he received Jiang Xian's eyes looking like a madman.

However, Xiao Huaijing continued to lean over like masochistic and said some irrelevant words.

Even he himself felt that it might be because he was on the verge of life and death this time, and he was so stimulated that his mental state was a bit problematic.

Although it is not uncommon to walk outside the gate of hell.

He went crazy intermittently for half a month, and he seemed to be slowly returning to normal.

In mid-April, Jiang Xian's injuries had healed a lot, and she was ready to go to Gongcheng.

Xiao Huaijing also left.

The whole house was empty.

Later, when they met again, they didn't know if the joke was much more serious, but Xiao Huaijing actually thought about the possibility of this joke.

Or because of the suspension bridge effect, the secret affection hidden under the open and aboveboard cooperative relationship grows uncontrollably and secretly.

But after Jiang Xian answered this question seriously for the first time, he slowly began to control his own sense of proportion, and then he never went beyond the rules.

After all, a beautiful lover is easy to find, but a good partner is not easy to find.

If not out of line...

On the contrary, after Jiang Xian returned to Beijing as the daughter of the waiting mansion, Xiao Huaijing's behavior did deviate from the previous style of keeping every step within the rules.

Jiang Xian once suspected that he wanted to use the power of the Jiangping Hou Mansion through marriage, and he was on guard for a period of time, lest the other party would hit his sister.

It's just that this is something for later.

After years of aggressive and cautious step by step, the wings behind Jiang Xian became more and more full, Xiao Huaijing also slowly let go of business matters, and only waited for the regular money from Jiang Xian.

In addition to the initial chain of restaurants that were renamed many times and finally designated as Zuixianlou, Jiang Xian's other industries involved basically involved in clothing, food, housing, transportation and entertainment.

With more and more money available in her hands, and the establishment and improvement of the intelligence cabinet, she is still in another world while diligently looking for a way to go back.

Until the early autumn of the 26th year of Xinghong.

In the courtyard of Linyi.

Jiang Xian looked at the information presented by the Secret Pavilion, which was "his own" life experience.

A few days ago, someone went to Zhuji Village to look for her, and it was only then that she realized that this "self" was not the daughter of the Jiang family, but the only prostitute daughter of the Marquis of Jiangping in the capital city, a daughter of a famous family living abroad.

Jiang Xian, who was thinking about how to avoid acknowledging relatives, his eyes fell on the two words in the corner of the paper - the boudoir name of the adopted daughter of Jiang Ping Hou Mansion.

Jiang Xian has now changed his mind.

She decided to obediently "recognize her ancestors and return to her clan" to find out.
