Chapter 73
.
Tan Shu looked straight ahead, Feng Qingyun said calmly: "I have too many enemies."

Jiang Wenyu said: "Maybe he is my enemy."

Tan Shu glanced down at her, focusing on a small section of white hair on the back of her neck.

Both of them had been soaking in the lake for a while, their bodies were soaked, and their clothes clung to their bodies. Now, the two bodies were closer, and he could clearly feel her thin back and tender skin.

Tan Shu lowered his gaze and said expressionlessly: "Your enemies are my enemies."

"What about the prince's enemies?" Jiang Wenyu was a little curious.

"It's not yours."

Jiang Wenyu suppressed a smile and deliberately raised his head, his forehead brushing the chin of the person behind him.

Tan Shu tightened his arms protecting her and said calmly: "Don't move."

Jiang Wenyu obediently turned his head, looked at the moon hanging in the sky in front of him, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I am very happy today."

Although he met an assassin and suffered a hail of arrows, he had to jump into the cold lake water and swam in a circle that was very exhausting and made him wet all over.

However, she is happy.

Xu Shi saw the beautiful scenery and discovered that there are still beautiful things in the world, which made her feel more nostalgic for this world.

Maybe he helped her pick up the walking stick from the water.

Maybe she is really alive at this moment.

In this world, people face countless setbacks and endless pain, but they can still persist in living, relying on a fetter.

In the past, Jiang Wenyu relied on Bai Zi's last wish between life and death.

Now, she wants to give herself another bond.

Apart from herself, there was no one in the world that she cared about.

Keren is always confused, and when she loses herself, someone may be able to find her for her.

**
Back at the mansion, Jiang Wenyu finished taking a shower and changed into dry and soft clothes, feeling better.

When Quartz came in through the window, she was sitting by the couch, lowering her head and wiping her wet hair with a towel.

The girl has a straight nose, long eyelashes, and wet hair on her temples, making her skin look young and fair.At this moment, her big eyes were staring at the 'uninvited guest' in front of her without blinking.

Quartz was puzzled by the look, frowned slightly, and took the initiative to say: "What?"

Jiang Wenyu said: "You are even more beautiful than I thought."

Because she was in a hurry, Quartz had her hair untied and her facial features were three-dimensional. Her black hair was scattered on her shoulders. The wind from the window blew a few strands of hair across her face, making her look as elegant as a fairy.

Quartz was startled by the praise.

"There is ginger soup on the table. You can drink it before you leave." Jiang Wenyu said while wiping his hair, "Let's take some time to go out in the next few days."

Quartz nodded.

After the two made sure each other was safe, they chatted for a few words, and then Quartz climbed out of the window and left.

When Tan Shu came, Jiang Wenyu was wrapping himself in a quilt, with only his round head exposed, staring blankly ahead.

Like a mushroom.

When she saw him, she didn't move. She just called softly: "Your Majesty."

Tan Shu put the food box on the table, walked to the edge and asked in a soft voice, "Are you feeling well?"

Jiang Wenyu shook his head: "No."

Tan Shu raised his hand and placed his generous palm on her forehead, "It's a little cold."

Jiang Wenyu looked up at him with a bright smile: "Your Majesty, your hands are too hot."

Tan Shu also laughed. If there were any problems, it was everyone else's fault. She learned very quickly.

Jiang Wenyu wasn't hungry at first, but when she smelled the food, she immediately became hungry. She lifted the quilt, got off the bed, walked to the table, sat on the pear wood stool, and watched Tan Shu open the food box expectantly.

It's fish soup and rose cake.

Jiang Wenyu smoothed his hair, held the bowl in both hands, and drank the warm fish soup, which made his whole body warm.

She raised her head and looked at Tan Shu, who was looking at her for a long time, "Your Majesty, aren't you going to drink?"

"Your Majesty is strong and strong. You can soak in the water for three days and three nights without any problem." Tan Shu said lazily, "There is no need to drink."

"Is it because the prince was eaten by a fish after three days and three nights of soaking, so he doesn't need to drink fish soup?"

Tan Shu was annoyed and funny at being silently criticized: "Do you really want me to be eaten by a fish?"

Jiang Wenyu was a little innocent: "Can't it be that I'm worried about the prince?"

"Of course." Tan Shu looked into those black and white eyes and smiled, "As long as you want, you can do anything."

Jiang Wenyu nodded, drooped his head, and continued to eat slowly.

Tan Shu didn't like the presence of others when he and Jiang Wenyu were together, so after she finished eating, he would pack the food box himself.

Jiang Wenyu supported his head with one hand and looked at him curiously.

Tan Shu glanced at it and knew what she was confused about, so he said: "When I was a child, my father scolded me not to eat. My eldest brother secretly brought a food box and ate with me. After eating, we had a competition to see who loses. tidy."

Jiang Wenyu blinked: "Does the Crown Prince often lose?"

Tan Shu looked at her with strange eyes and asked silently, "Who are you looking down on?"

"I think the prince is quite skilled in cleaning up." Jiang Wenyu explained.

"This has nothing to do with winning or losing." Tan Shu said.

Jiang asked Yu: "What does that have to do with?"

Tan Shu tapped his fingers on the table, "I have a strong learning ability."

really.

The prince just doesn't know what modesty is.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Wenyu covered his hands and yawned. When Tan Shu stood up, he caught a glimpse of something hanging on his waist.

His flute.

Mrs. Hou went to the temple to buy a Buddhist jade stone, made a white jade flute by herself, asked a monk to consecrate it, prayed devoutly in front of the Buddha for a hundred days, and finally gave it to him as a 12th birthday gift.

Since then, he has never left her body.

Tan Shu did not believe in gods and Buddhas, but perhaps it was a coincidence. After holding this flute, he escaped from death several times.

Tan Shu fiddled with it with his long, clean fingers.

The next moment, the white jade flute that was originally on his waist was thrust into Jiang Wenyu's hand.

Jiang Wenyu raised his face and looked at him, his eyes full of confusion, "Prince?"

Tan Shu said slowly: "I helped you keep the pearl hairpin, now it's your turn to help me keep the flute."

"what?"

Jiang Wenyu was confused. Is this matter still going back and forth?

The cool touch of the flute in his hand was very pleasant. Jiang Wenyu blinked his beautiful dark almond-shaped eyes and asked: "How long should it be kept?"

Tan Shu stared at her for a while and said casually: "I will ask you when I want it."

When he wants it... This statement is too uncertain.

She doesn't like uncertainty.

Jiang Wenyu hesitated, feeling that she had lost money on this deal.

"Sir..."

Tan Shu seemed to know what Jiang Wenyu was worried about, so he stopped her and said, "Wait until you like me."

Jiang Wenyu raised his head, his dark and bright eyes reflecting his appearance.

Tan Shu said without changing his expression: "Whenever you like me, give it back to me."

Jiang Wenyu said distressedly: "But..." I might not like you. "No buts." Tan Shu reached out and rubbed her soft hair, "Have a good rest."

Jiang Wenyu looked at his upright back and touched his cheek.

It seems a little hot.

*
this day.

Tan Shu and Xiao Yuansong went to the Governor's Mansion to interrogate the captured assassins, and Jiang Wenyu took the opportunity to pull Shi Ying out.

The two of them first visited the jewelry stores in Linzhou, and then went to the clothing store to look at new clothes.

Jiang Wenyu blinked his eyes and looked sincere in his request. Quartz really couldn't refuse.

So, Jiang Wenyu coaxed Shi Ying in with a few words and changed into women's clothes.

The blue gauze skirt has delicate bead embroidery on the neckline. The skirt is printed with patterns of mountain pine leaves and flying birds. Quartz is holding a sword and still has no expression. The skirt makes her figure slender and her waist is thin, as if she is not careful. Falling into the mortal world, a cold and aloof goddess.

"So beautiful!" Jiang Wenyu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but fiddle with the hem of her skirt, "Why did you always show off in men's clothing before?"

Quartz felt that it was strange to wear women's clothing, but she still had a faint expression on her face: "It's convenient."

Jiang Wenyu nodded: "Indeed."

She turned around, pointed to a pile of cloth, and said to the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, please make a few more sets of skirts according to this figure."

Hearing this, Shi Ying pulled Jiang Wenyu's arm with some fear: "No, no need."

"I know it's not important to wear men's or women's clothes. What's important is that you feel comfortable wearing them." Jiang Wenyu said with a smile, "But you can't go wrong buying and trying them."

Quartz is still a little confused.

"Do you think I'm cute?" Jiang asked Yu.

Quartz nodded.Not just cute, that's pretty cute.

Jiang asked Yu: "Do you know why?"

Quartz: "Why?"

Jiang Wenyu smiled and said, "Because girls are very cute."

Quartz was stunned.

……

The two of them had almost finished shopping, and Jiang Wenyu and Shi Ying walked back slowly.

When he met an old woman selling pies, Jiang Wenyu paid for it and politely said, "Grandma, please have a sweet bean pie."

The old lady made it quickly. Jiang Wenyu took the pie, held it in his hand, broke half of it and gave it to Quartz, and then took a small bite himself.The sweet bean pie is sweet but not greasy, because it is freshly baked and feels warm in the palm of your hand.

"It's crispy, glutinous and delicious. Try it." Jiang Wenyu said to Quartz.

Hearing this, Quartz opened her mouth, took a bite, and swallowed. When she looked up, she found Jiang Wenyu looking at her eagerly.

Quartz praised stiffly: "It's delicious."

In her opinion, food can only be eaten or not. She didn't pay much attention to whether it tasted good or not.

Jiang Wenyu raised his eyebrows and tilted his head. Just as he was about to say something, his eyes were suddenly dazzled by a ray of light, and the sound of a crossbow arrow being fired rapidly rang out in the originally quiet alley.

Before Shi Ying understood the situation, her wrist tightened and she was suddenly pulled over by Jiang Wenyu.
With a "whoosh" sound, the wall made a muffled sound, and the thick wall soil was cracked by the crossbow arrows.

The next arrow cleverly changed its direction and shot straight towards Jiang Wenyu with a "swish" sound. At the critical moment, Jiang Wenyu sidestepped and the arrow grazed her hair and flew backwards.

Two arrows were fired in succession, and within a few breaths, Quartz drew his sword and stood back to back with Jiang Wenyu.

"Go this way."

At the same time as Jiang Wenyu finished speaking, the enemy in the dark had already replaced his arrows, and the sharp and harsh sound sounded again.

Jiang Wenyu and Shi Ying looked at each other and already exchanged information.

The two ran forward for some distance. Deep in the forest, several men in black stood up behind them, blocking the way.

Quartz grabbed Jiang Wenyu and protected her behind her. With the long sword in her hand, she had killed three men in black in a few moves.

"You can't escape." A man in black stepped forward and stared at the timid Jiang Wenyu.

Hearing the voice, the timidity on Jiang Wenyu's face receded, and he suddenly said: "It turns out it's you."

At this moment, Jiang Wenyu and Shi Ying were surrounded by dozens of men in black.

Mu Xiye pulled down his mask and looked at Jiang Wenyu with a proud smile: "Otherwise, who do you think he is?"

"Mu Xiye, do you really want to die that much?" Jiang Wenyu said slowly, "That's right. A man as incompetent as you seems to be of no use other than being able to die."

Mu Xiye said angrily: "You're a sharp-tongued piece of trash, you're the one who wants to die!"

Jiang Wenyu smiled and said, "Please check the situation clearly."

As he finished speaking, there were sudden commotions from all around. Mu Xiye looked around, his expression not very pretty.

At some point, masked men in purple clothes appeared with swords and surrounded them in greater numbers and in a wider area!

Within a few breaths, the man in purple removed the weapon from the man in black, and the man in black was pressed to the ground.

"Mu Xiye, what should we do now? You chased me all the way to my territory to kill me. I, a weak woman, can fight back, right?"

Jiang Wenyu curled his fingers.

Quartz understood and gave her the sword in his hand.

Mu Xiye was a little shocked. As a killer, the sword must not be handed over to others.

Quartz was actually willing to give her sword to Jiang Wenyu!
Mu Xiye looked at the girl walking towards him in disbelief.

Jiang Wenyu is wearing a light pink peony pattern skirt today. The headband and sway of the same color on her head sway as she walks, making a tinkling sound, which reminds people of the scene of birds jumping on the branches in summer, cheerful and joyful. people.

But such a simple and beautiful person in the painting was approaching him step by step with a sword dripping with blood.

The situation between Akira and God turned around.

Mu Xiye held his breath and looked at Jiang Wenyu helplessly.

She was obviously prepared. After being assassinated, she pretended to be defeated and ran away in a panic, leading them here.

Although he was caught and the knife was dangling in front of his face, Mu Xiye remained calm.

The tip of the knife has been licking blood for many years. I knew this day would come, but I didn't expect that it would fall into the hands of the petite and frail Jiang Wenyu. He felt unwilling to do so, but it did not prevent him from accepting death as home.

"Huh?" Jiang Wenyu looked at Mu Xiye's calm and magnanimous expression and was a little surprised, "You're not afraid of death?"

Mu Xiye closed his eyes, "Since I'm in your hands, I can kill or behead him, you can do whatever you want."

To be so bloody.

Jiang Wenyu slowly raised the sword in his hand and poked Mu Xiye's heart.

"you wanna die?"

Mu Xiye snorted coldly and said harshly: "Trash! If you can't kill me today, I will kill you tomorrow!"

"I am not an incompetent and angry man. Your words cannot anger me."

Jiang Wenyu glanced at him with a smile, thinking quickly. Finally, she took back her sword and said softly: "Don't be afraid, I won't kill you for the time being."

Mu Xiye opened his eyes without knowing why.

Jiang Wenyu turned sideways and walked slowly towards the man in black who was pinned to the ground by the man in purple.

The girl fiddled with the hem of her skirt, squatted down, and smiled sweetly on her innocent and harmless face.

then.

Mu Xiye heard her aggrieved cry for help: "Go back and tell your master that I was captured by Mu Xiye and tell him to come and save me."

Suddenly, Mu Xi's ambition jumped into his throat, and cold sweat broke out on his back and forehead.

"What do you want to do?!"
