Chapter 37 Self-indulgent

Jian Chijin hugged her soft and slender waist with one hand, held the reins with the other, and walked slowly on the path in the fields.

Golden rapeseed flowers dye the mountains and fields, and everything as far as the eye can see is golden. The breeze blows by, like a golden ocean with surging waves.

"I heard that you are going to Qingcheng to suppress bandits?"

"Um."

A deep voice came from his solid chest, and Tang Xi, who was close to him, could clearly feel the powerful beating of his heart.

"Why?"

Now that the emperor is seriously ill, it is a critical moment for the heir apparent. He has been away from Beijing for two months and still goes to Qingcheng, which is thousands of miles away. In her opinion, it is an unwise decision.

Jian Chijin chuckled, with an elegant and low-pitched voice, half truthful and half false, "I care about the people of Qingcheng."

Tang Xi would have believed this if someone else said it, but when it came out from Jian Chijin's mouth, Tang Xi sneered. She didn't believe that a person who dug a secret passage in the enemy's mansion and took a sneak peek every year would immediately show up at the enemy's house.

When he wants to dominate the world, he still cares about the people who are thousands of miles away and are suffering from bandits.

"Does the general have other plans for going to Qingcheng?" Tang Xi looked at the boundless golden scenery in front of her, and suddenly thought of something that she had always ignored, "I seem to remember that Qingcheng is very close to Donglin."

When he went to Qingcheng, he must have gone to Donglin under the banner of suppressing bandits to investigate the Yu family's private weapons-making.

"So smart." Jian Chijin praised without hesitation, and added: "It's not all because of this. If I stay in Shangjing City, I will always be involved in these disputes. No matter who wins or loses, they will try to control my military power.

It is better to leave as soon as possible and come back when everything has settled. I will still serve the country and the people as General Ning Yuan."

"Cunning fox." Tang Xi commented.

Jian Chijin lowered his eyes and looked at her long hair tied with a crown on the top of her head, "Where are you going in this outfit?"

"Go back to headquarters."

"Yongye Pavilion Headquarters? I've been investigating for a long time but haven't found the location of Yongye Pavilion Headquarters. You guys have hidden it pretty well," Jian Chijin guessed casually, "This road passes through not many states and counties. Is it in Liangzhou?"

Tang Xi was silent.

"Yangzhou?"

Tang Xi remained speechless.

"Is it possible that you are in Xuzhou?"

Tang Xi finally couldn't bear it anymore and turned to glare at him, "General, please save your energy. Even if you guess it, is it possible that you can still cook it all at once?"

Jian Chijin raised her eyebrows, "You and I should be in harmony with each other, but I'm not sure it's really possible."

Tang Xi sneered, "As long as you can find the antidote, Yongye Pavilion will be self-defeating without you and me cooperating inside and outside."

Since Jian Chijin has begun to investigate the location of Yongye Pavilion's headquarters, he also knows a lot about Yongye Pavilion itself. He knows that Yongye Pavilion uses a kind of medicine to control the killers in the pavilion, forcing them to work hard and giving them the antidote once a month.

Sensing Tang Xi's gloomy atmosphere, Jian Chijin changed the question, "What are you going to do at the headquarters? As far as I know, there are people from Yanmen who specially pass on the tasks, so there is no need to go back to the headquarters."

"You know quite a lot." Tang Xi praised, instead of answering directly, he asked, "Which prince does the general hope to become the new emperor?"

"To me, it doesn't matter either way."

The prince is cruel but ignorant, and will only become a puppet of the Yu family after he ascends the throne. The third prince is a wealthy man, but is headstrong, and is unlikely to achieve great things. He will not be able to accomplish anything after he ascends the throne, and will fall into the hands of the Yu family sooner or later.

Nowadays, no matter which prince ascends the throne, the Yu family will win.

"I hope the prince will ascend the throne." Tang Xi said lightly.

"Because Xian Changbo supports the prince?"

"No," Tang Xi shook his head, "The prince is tyrannical and has a strong desire for control. If he becomes the emperor and has to be controlled by the Yu family, he will not tolerate it like the current emperor. He will turn the entire Shangjing city upside down.

, no one from a high-ranking noble family can live well, don’t you think it’s fun?”

Jian Chijin's eyes were deep, "Do you hate Dayu?"

"I don't hate, I'm just moving towards this goal," Tang Xi looked back, looking up into his eyes, with a playful smile at the corners of her eyes, "Didn't you ask me why I returned to the headquarters? Because I

I need to apply to the headquarters to assassinate the emperor. I heard that he will wake up soon, so hurry up before he wakes up." Tang Xi made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Jian Chijin's arm holding her waist stiffened, then relaxed, and sighed, "How dare you say such treacherous words, have you forgotten my identity?"

"How could you forget? I, Dayu, the God of War general who serves the country and the people, don't you have the same thoughts as me?"

"My goal is only the Yu family." Jian Chijin said seriously.

Tang Xi curled her lips, "Without the Yu family, do you think there would still be the current royal family, the Feng family?"

Jian Chijin narrowed her eyes dangerously, "Why are you telling me this?"

"Because I think we would be the best allies."

ally?

Jian Chijin suddenly realized that she was being sentimental, and immediately turned coldly on her face, pinched her cheek domineeringly, and said in a dark voice, "So you are trying to form an alliance with me?"

Just let him hug you all the way?

Tang Xi seemed to see through his thoughts at a glance, her red lips curled slightly, "The most important thing is that I like the general's face."

Jian Chijin's hand held her cheek tightly, her handsome face tightened, he stared at her sly smile, grinded his teeth, and said bitterly, "What a coincidence, so do I." Then he pressed her hand on her cheek.

On the back of his head, he lowered his head and pressed it on her lips.

Tang Xi's eyes widened and he didn't react for a moment. He let him toss and bite him. The horse didn't know what happened and walked forward leisurely. Tang Xi's consciousness finally came back, pressed against his chest and pushed him. Jian Chijin was very surprised.

The wise man did not continue and stepped away, licking his lips with unfinished thoughts.

"Jian Chijin!" Tang Xi was so angry that he punched him and was about to knock him off his horse. Jian Chijin raised his hand and held her wrist, scoundrelly saying: "If you dare to take action, I will not ally with you."

Tang Xi was speechless and choked, "You are a general after all! Are you childish?"

Jian Chijin raised her eyebrows and looked ahead. "Not childish," she said, and immediately tightened the reins with both hands, pinched the horse's belly, and the horse galloped out.

He didn't hold her waist as thoughtfully as he did just now. Tang Xi had no support, and she was swaying like she was riding a horse with him for the first time. Without support, she could only lean against Jian Chijin's chest.

"Childish!" she shouted.

The wind blew her voice into pieces, and only a faint sound reached Jian Chijin's ears. He curled his lips and speeded up the horse again.

Tang Xi vowed that if she rode a horse with Jian Chijin again, her surname would not be Tang!

Fortunately, we didn't go far in the first place, so the return trip didn't take long.

Gao Feiwei was squatting under a tree chatting with Baozhen.

"I heard your name is Baozhen?"

Baozhen nodded obediently.

Gao Feiwei: "What do you like?"

Baozhen: "I like Miss."

"Except Miss?"

"Only my lady."

Gao Feiwei refused to give up, "What about the others? For example, flowers, rouge, gouache, or food and drink?"

Baozhen frowned, "How can these things be compared with Miss? I just like Miss, I like Miss the most! I only like Miss!"

Gao Feiwei: "..."

He changed the question, "Why do you like Miss?"

"Because the lady is nice to me! I am the only lady in the world who is nice to me!"

Gao Feiwei wondered if Tang Xi had drugged the little girl and made her fascinated.

He asked, "What's a good way?"

"Miss, you saved my life! She gave me delicious food! She also taught me how to control——Miss! You're back!" Before she could finish her words, Baozhen stood up and ran away.

control?

Control what?

Gao Feiwei was confused.

Over there, Jian Chijin had already turned over and jumped off the horse, with a cold face, ignoring Tang Xi's eyes that wanted to cut him into pieces, and passed Baozhen.

"Miss, you're back!" Baozhen rushed forward happily.

Tang Xi glared at Jian Chijin's back fiercely, "Baozhen, mount the horse, let's go!"

"Yes." Baozhen jumped on the horse happily.

The two of them galloped towards the road ahead, and within a moment, they were gone.

Gao Feiwei smacked his lips before he finished his thoughts. He still had a lot of things to say, so why did he come back so quickly?

Looking at his general's unhappy expression, he thought of the murderous expression on Tang Xi's face just now, and... the bite marks on his red lips.

Could it be that General...

"General," Gao Feiwei cautiously probed, "You and..."

"Let's go!!" Jian Chijin said coldly, interrupting his question.

The team of five hundred people immediately obeyed the order, stood up, packed their luggage, and got on their horses.

Gao Feiwei was speechless: "..."

He shrugged helplessly. It was obvious that his general did not seize such a good opportunity and even pissed off the girl!
