Queen Flower
Chapter 108: showdown
A few days later, Jiang Lan's condition improved greatly, and he was finally able to move freely like a normal person. At this time, Lan Sheng's situation has also improved a lot. After all, it was an external injury. Although the injury was serious, he recovered quickly after timely treatment.
After Jiang Lan regained her mobility, she kept thinking about how to infiltrate the Shen residence. She wanted to see the scene of the crime. Although 80% of the crime had been erased, she still wanted to check on the spot to determine if it was a secret room. It is a pity that he lost his martial arts skills when committing a crime, and everything is very inconvenient. At this time, Xia Henqiu received news from the imperial capital that the emperor sent him to the Nanman Kingdom to restore the diplomatic relations between the two countries. He didn't need to go back to Beijing to face the Holy Spirit, he went directly to the envoy.
Jiang Lan didn't know why Xia Henqiu, the inspector, was entrusted with such an important task, but the Southern Barbarian Kingdom still entered her heart. It can be said that the recovery of her martial arts, the whereabouts of the right string leaf, including the Shen Lian case, all have their shadows to some extent. I always feel that there is an unclear relationship with the Nanman Chu Clan. This is Jiang Lan's vagueness. Intuitively, the left chord lobe and the right chord lobe are definitely related.
"Are you going to Nanman with me, or stay here?" Xia Henqiu asked her.
Jiang Lan is very entangled and can't make a decision. The matter of Chu Qingcheng has no results and is stagnant. If there is no key evidence, it will only maintain the status quo. It is better to go to Nanman to explore, and maybe there will be some unexpected gains. . Besides, staying here, she is also a fugitive who cannot show her face.
"I'll go with you." Jiang Lan said decisively, "I hope to recover my martial arts."
Xia Henqiu nodded, "You can accompany me as my personal maid, but you have to listen to me by my side, and you can't act alone."
Jiang Lan thought for a while, "Yes." This condition can still be abided by. After all, he is a visiting envoy and has a heavy responsibility. If something goes wrong with his own actions, it may lead to the intensification of the conflict between the two countries and the outbreak of war again.
Jiang Lan stood in front of Lan Sheng's bed and said goodbye to him, "I'm going to Nanman, and I'll leave it to you here. You have to keep an eye on the government's movements."
Lan Sheng was silent for a moment, "You have to be careful, the son is waiting for you."
He hated his helplessness, and now that he was seriously injured, even if he had to obey the son's orders to protect her, he couldn't do it.
"You take good care of your injury, the Chu family needs you." Jiang Lan patted his shoulder and turned away.
After receiving the imperial edict, Xia Henqiu took over the envoy team, ready to go.
It was a huge team, with hundreds of people. The flags were flying, and the dragon totem representing the imperial family of the Celestial Dynasty was engraved. The dragon was dancing on the golden flag. Officials in black and red official uniforms rode on horses, soldiers in thick armor, lined up, and there were many carriages in the middle of the team, with accompanying supplies and gifts for the envoy.
Xia Henqiu was saying goodbye to the local officials, and Jiang Lan had been secretly hiding in the carriage because it was difficult to show his face. She looked out from the curtain and saw Shen Qun and Zhou County Magistrate after sweeping through the large army. Jiang Lan put down the curtain and felt a little uneasy. She felt that she was actually sorry for Shen Qun. She somehow sneaked into Shen's house and finally killed his only sister. In the end, she really had bad intentions. A thief, but now the mantis is catching the cicada, and the oriole is behind.
After Xia Henqiu got into the carriage, the team set off.
Jiang Lan looked at Xia Henqiu, who was wearing an official uniform and hat, and was a little stunned, "This is your carriage?" She always thought that she was with the servants, and just now wondered why she was the only one. It seems that this is not a luxurious carriage, and it is not even as wide as his carriage with a blue-gray drapery. Compared with Chu Qingcheng's, it is like a sky and an underground.
"Of course. You are my personal maid, who else will you follow if you don't follow me?" Xia Henqiu flicked his sleeves and sat down.
Only then did Jiang Lan look at him carefully, it was different from normal days. Today, he is dressed in a purple robe, which makes him look like a crown of jade, handsome and handsome. The purple robe looks very precious. There are silver silk flowers on the neckline and cuffs, and the waist is dark purple wrapped with gold brocade. Wearing a black square-topped long-winged hat on her head, her slightly pale face had the fierceness of a superior person, and her long and narrow eyes swept over, making her feel a chill in an instant.
But in the blink of an eye, he regained that slight smile, making Jiang Lan feel that it was just an illusion. He took off his official hat and put it aside, revealing the bun on his head. All the hair was braided and tied tightly without a trace of mess. He looked at Jiang Lan, "I heard that Mrs. Chu was born as a personal maid, she should know how to serve people, right?"
Jiang Lan sat in the corner, she heard that she raised her head to look at him, she thought they were just pretending, who knew that she really wanted her to be a maid now. But listening to his tone, it definitely contained a kind of malice, which was to say that she deliberately seduced Chu Qingcheng.
Jiang Lan said sternly: "I know you don't like me. If that's the case, why don't you arrange for me to take another carriage? Why don't you look at each other." Even if she had to rely on him to restore her martial arts, she couldn't stand this kind of birdy. , not to mention she also disliked him.
Xia Henqiu chuckled, "Since you have taken up the position of the personal maid, you must do your own duty." Why did he share the carriage with her, of course, because of his unabated suspicion of her. won't let her go free. Therefore, even if he is sent to another country, he should take her with him, lest he will be exhausted when he comes back with a big mistake.
Jiang Lan nodded, "This is what it should be. As long as you tell me, I will do my job well. However, we have to talk about why you always doubt me. If you have this mentality, we can't cooperate to save Chu Qingcheng."
Xia Henqiu glanced at her in surprise, and said sternly: "Since you said it straight, let's talk about it, you have to make me doubt, there are many reasons. First, your origin is unknown, I checked the Jiang family. Daya, her personality is timid and cowardly, which is not in line with your situation. Second, you have martial arts, but you have hidden inner strength and potential in the Shen family's house. Why is this, and what is the purpose? Third, I repeatedly asked where your teacher came from, You refused to answer, if you are really open-minded, why cover it up? Fourth," he stopped, looked at the shocked Jiang Lan, stretched out his fingers and slowly slipped across her face, "is this face really yours? Mrs. Chu?" He leaned against the wall of the car and looked at Jiang Lan quietly.
Jiang Lan lowered her head, and there were indeed many reasons. In this way, she was indeed the most suspect. He could really see her disguise, and there were actually people in this world who could see through God's tricks. Xiaoxi, Xiaoxi, you are also a fairy, really bah.
Xia Henqiu sat up straight and continued to push, "A person who hides his head and hides his face, a person whose disguise is so unparalleled in the world, why should I believe you. When we first met in Liuxianju that day, you implied hostility to me. , isn't it precisely because of a guilty conscience?" Since the showdown is going to take place, she will kill every step of the way, this time she will definitely have nowhere to hide.
Jiang Lan was really powerless, and what he said really hit the spot. However, her reason is difficult to explain clearly. Does she want to say that she was sent by an immortal, that she is an alien from outer space, do you want to complete the mission before going home? It's more unbelievable than she is the murderer.
But Xia Henqiu was waiting for her answer. Obviously, if she couldn't get a satisfactory answer this time, she would have to be confirmed as the real murderer. Don't forget, he is still an official, and it seems that he is still quite an official at present.
Jiang Lan raised his head with a sincere expression on his face, "I'm really not the eldest daughter of the Jiang family. I have martial arts skills, but my business has nothing to do with my master, he doesn't know anything about it. I came to the Shen family for a purpose. Looking for my family heritage, I heard that I was living in the Shen residence, so I sneaked in. If I can't find this thing, I will go home and face my parents." She covered her eyes with her hands, and if she found it She can't go home until Golden Leaf, so it's not a lie.
She stopped for a while and put down her hands, and continued: "As for why you have to disguise yourself, this is a personal reason, and it has nothing to do with this matter. I have been disfigured before, and I can only live by this face. This is my face." To be honest, this must not be dismantled, and we must persevere to the end.
"Who made your disguise mask, your master?" Xia Henqiu didn't hold on to it, she had to lift the mask. What he was interested in was this highly skilled mask.
"No," Jiang Lan shook his head, "it's a reclusive expert who made it for me because I was pitiful. If this is broken, there will be no more."
Xia Henqiu nodded, such a superb technique is beyond the grasp of ordinary people, and even he is ashamed. He said, "I can believe your words for the time being, but if what you say is true, and you are lurking in search of family treasures, why would you be involved with Chu Qingcheng? I don't think he knows that you It's okay."
Jiang Lan could only nod, okay, she deceived Chu Qingcheng a little bit.
Xia Henqiu said: "I don't care how you seduce him, but now you are the ultimate vested interest, and you are the only beneficiary of this disaster. What can I say?"
Bah, why did she seduce Chu Qingcheng? When did she do such a thing. Jiang Lan took a deep breath, then spit it out, repeated many times, barely resisting the urge to pounce on his head. I have never seen anyone in this world who hates him as much. I hate it the first time I see it, I hate it the second time I see it, I hate it every time I see it, and I don't hate it once.
She worked hard for a long time before she said, "I don't know how I got into trouble with him, but I really didn't mean it." She raised her hand, "I can swear, I have absolutely nothing wrong with the Chu family. I want to. Now I just want to rescue Chu Qingcheng and return the Chu family to him. As long as he comes out, I will leave him and never come back. "
