The temperature in the room soared, hot like a stove, Meng Mu woke up in a panic, and followed behind Meng Xinran in a panic, her face full of horror.In just a few minutes, the fire had spread from the roof to the porch, and the window paper was stained with sparks, and it immediately caught fire, and with the help of the strong wind, it burst out of the flames and pounced on Meng Xinran's family."
AhhThe foot that had just stepped over the threshold was frightened and retracted."
What should I do, Xinran."
Meng Mu grabbed Meng Xinran's arm, her whole body trembled, and she was already crying, "I can't get out." ”The whole eaves were on fire, and the windows on the side were burned to ashes, hanging loosely on the wall, and when the wind blew it, it fell to the ground with a click, splashing a series of sparks.Meng Xinran and Meng's mother retreated again and again.However, even retreating into the house was of no avail, and it was even more difficult, the heat was billowing in, and the smoke was thick, enclosing the person inside, as if the whole person was going to burn, and it was even more difficult to breathe.Even if Meng Xinran was afraid that her whole body was cold, she was hot and naked by the high temperature.Lu's skin was painful and hot, and it was a brutal torture.Xiao Rui was protected in Meng Xinran's arms, surrounded Meng Xinran with tears, and coughed a few times from time to time.Meng Xinran looked down at her younger brother, her belief in survival has never been so strong, she gritted her teeth and said to Meng's mother: "Mother, while the house has not collapsed, let's rush out." ”"But, but ......"
Meng Mu looked at the flames flying around the door cowardly and fearfully, and the thought of stepping through the fire made her heart scared and hesitated."
Boom!
Another place collapsed under the corridor, and at the same time, Meng Xinran heard the sound of loosening from the beams.The heart was suddenly clenched, and if you don't leave, it's too late, and the house is about to collapse!
Meng Xinran hugged Xiaorui hard and shouted to Meng's mother: "Mother, run, the house is almost untenable." ”After that, he pulled Meng Mu and ran out.The flames stirred around with the wind, and the gates were stained with flames and burned overhead.There was fire in front and back, but Meng Xinran didn't care about it anymore, gritted her teeth and closed her eyes and rushed out, the flames burned her arms, she was also unconscious, and there was only one belief in her mind, that is, to escape and live.The small courtyard was empty, there were no flammable items, and it was not completely burned, and when he breathed in the fresh air, Meng Xinran held on to the water tank and took a few breaths.Xiao Rui coughed a few times, looked into the house in a daze, and shouted softly: "Sister, my mother is in the house." ”Without waiting for his mind to relax a little, Meng Xinran heard Xiao Rui's words, and was startled and looked back in horror.I saw Meng Mu sitting on the threshold, raising her hand to cover her forehead and coughing painfully, and the flames had already burned into the house, accompanied by billowing smoke flying from the inside out, as if Meng Mu could be swallowed in the next second.At the moment when Meng Xinran was frightened by Meng's mother, the fire finally penetrated the roof, burned the beams, and with a bang, half of the house collapsed, shaking the earth and trembling.In the next second, the boundless heat wave rolled madly with flames, and rushed straight towards the gate."
Mother——!
An Jing stayed up all night this night.The fire in Dongchengmin Alley burned more and more vigorously with the strong wind at night, and quickly spread from the small courtyard of the Meng family to the entire alley.The choking smoke woke up the residents in the alley, and when they saw the fire rushing towards their houses, the people in the alleys did not have time to get dressed, so they crawled out of the house and ran out of the alley for their lives.The flames filled the sky, the smoke billowed out, and the noisy screams and cries twisted and echoed in the alleys, filled with endless fear and tension, which made others tremble.However, the fire did not decrease in the slightest, and seeing that it was spreading to the whole of Ankyo, everyone was terrified, and if the fire could not be extinguished, I was afraid that the whole of Ankyo would be killed in the flames.Regardless of their own safety, the people of Minxiang urgently sought something to hold water and tried to extinguish the fire."
Fight the fire!"
Someone hissed and called for everyone to put out the fire."
Is there anyone else in there?
Anyone else?
”"I don't know!""
It's gone!
They're all running out!
”"Then hurry up and put out the fire!""
Wait!
Xu Xiaohua and the new family didn't see it and ran out!
”In the chaos, I don't know who shouted loudly, and it was particularly abrupt in the sound of firefighting.The crowd was silent for a second, and the next moment, someone shouted, "Then hurry up and find a way to save people!"
There's also a little doll inside!
”"It's too late."
Someone sighed heavily, "The whole road is full of fire, and the two of them are in the most remote location, and they can't get in." ”…… In Dongcheng Minxiang, the raging fire accompanied by thick smoke illuminates half of the sky in Anjing, and the night is mixed with thick smoke like a mountain, like the shadow of death has been hanging in the sky, which makes people uneasy.The air was filled with the smell of fire and smoke, and the pungent and choking people could not breathe properly.Chu Jingqi stood in a corner outside the alley with his hands in his hands, and the shadow hit his face, making it difficult to see his expression.Chu Jingqi originally wanted to sneak into Anjing to explore the situation in the city, but he didn't expect to encounter this fire as soon as he came.And the alley in front of him has become a sea of fire, and no one can get close.Chu Dao walked quickly from behind, and his body was stained with a strong smell of smoke and gunpowder.Chu Jingqi looked ahead and said in a deep voice: "Have you rescued the people inside?"
”Chu Dao paused and said, "Only a few people were rescued, and the fire was too big to be close to the secret guards." ”Chu Jingqi said: "What about Chu Jian?
”Chu Dao: "It's still fighting fires." ”Chu Jingqi snorted, and after a while, asked, "What about Zhong Yuren?"
”Chu Dao: "Governor Zhong just heard the news and is coming. ”Chu Jingqi didn't make a sound, but his eyes darkened when he looked at Minxiang.Such a huge fire not only alarmed the people of Anjing, but also the surrounding victims, who reached out to help and extinguished the fire as much as they could.The wind gradually subsided, and the fire was gradually contained.Chu Jingqi said: "Let Chu see back." ”Chu Dao obeyed the order, and then ordered his subordinates to sneak into the crowd to fight the fire, and quietly gestured next to Chu Jian.Chu saw it and secretly ordered the guards of Prince Rong's Mansion to quietly withdraw.The sky changed from dark to bright, Chu Jingqi glanced at the Dongcheng Alley that had become a ruin, snorted when he turned around, and mocked: "I'm coming, hum, hurry up to collect the corpse." ”After that, he threw up his sleeves and left, leaving behind an angry sentence: "The king of Ming Japan will go to meet this prefect Zhong." ”Chapter 11 011 Dongcheng Alley was burned down by fire overnight, leaving a place of ruins and broken walls.The sky was faint, and Zhong Yu, the prefect of Anjing, was in a hurry, sighing at the devastation, full of sympathy and sorrow.Governor Zhong sympathized with this group of homeless people, and he was really worried, so he almost scratched his ears and thought about his head.Looking at the people sitting in the corner of the half-section of the wall, Zhong Zhifu's brows furrowed tightly, and he sighed that he didn't know how to arrange the place for these people.Ankyung was already overcrowded due to the floods, and the good halls everywhere were also crowded, not to mention the crowds sleeping on the streets.If they were to stay in the inn, the people who were burned by the fire and their hands might not be able to afford the room rate, and in the long run, it would be difficult to ensure that the guests in the inn would not complain.If you don't make arrangements, you can't say anything, you must know that Anjing is like a silent ** bucket, I don't know when it will be ignited, setting off an uproar......
Zhong Zhifu thought that there was another adult in the post station in Liucheng Town who was about to come to Anjing to inspect, and his headache was about to explode.Zhong Zhifu's head was sweating anxiously, but Master Bai beside him reminded him and told him that a resettlement area had been set up near the Anjing City Gate in recent days, specifically to take in the victims who had nowhere to go, and if these people wanted, they could go there first.When Governor Zhong heard this, he thought about it and felt that this method was feasible, so he directly made a decision and said yes.Meng Xinran woke up in a room in a compound, and her eyes were covered with a light tent, and her nose seemed to be surrounded by sandalwood.Sandalwood is faint and fragrant, long and long, and the familiar seems to have returned to the previous life.The afternoon sun in late spring is just right, shining on the body with a layer of warmth.The sun was warm, and the young woman sitting in the small garden was holding her cheeks, looking sleepy.Xu was too sleepy, and the woman didn't want to find a comfortable position easily, so she had to head little by little, and look at the next second she could knock on the stone table.Someone in the distance couldn't help but smile at this situation, just took a step, and thought of the rare to see the other party's not so conformist side, and suddenly saved a little bit of caution to see the excitement, so the step back was retracted, leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, and looking at her quietly with a smile in his eyes.As the drowsiness grew, the woman finally couldn't hold it anymore, her palms brushed her cheeks, and her forehead fell straight to the table.If it falls solid this time, I'm afraid my forehead will have to pick up the bag.Seeing that she was about to fall, the man was shocked, his face changed, and he hurriedly ran, his palm against her forehead, and his palm against the hard and cold stone table."
Hmm."
The woman seemed to wake up, but she didn't want to open her eyes, and muttered in a low voice, "Sleepy." ”The man sat down, wrapped one hand around her waist and covered her eyes with the other so that the sun would not shine so brightly, and changed into a comfortable position, he lowered his head and whispered softly in her ear: "If you are sleepy, sleep in my arms." ”The faint scent of sandalwood on the man's body hit the tip of her nose, and she rubbed it into his arms, listening to the sound of his heartbeat and slowly falling asleep."
Sleep well."
Seeing her defenseless and tranquil sleeping face, he finally couldn't help it, and dropped a kiss on her forehead, and his gaze at her became more and more gentle.Good dreams at noon, but she always remembered the smell of his body, the sandalwood, not strong but profound, had been with her at night to sleep peacefully, even after so long, she could clearly feel his presence, as if it was by her side.Meng Xinran blinked, and was a little dazed for a while.She didn't know if the smell was her hallucination or if it was real.But if it was a hallucination, the pain in her arm was too real."
Girl, are you awake?"
Qing Shui picked up the light tent, and was not surprised to see Meng Xinran wake up, hooked it with the golden hook next to the bed, raised his hand and beckoned the maid standing behind, picked up a white porcelain bottle in his hand, and said to Meng Xinran: "Girl, I'll change the medicine for you." ”Qing Shui's face was calm, but Meng Xinran's expression changed when she saw her at first glance, and her eyes seemed to be incredulous: "You ......"
Meng Xinran is extremely familiar with Qing Shui.In the previous life, she was still too rich and daughter, and Qing Shui was her personal maid and served her all the time.Qing Shui is the same age as her, and the two can be said to have grown up together since childhood, and their relationship is very deep.So much so that three months before Shen Ru's wedding, Qing Shui left for no reason, which made Shen Ru sad and sad for a long time.Now seeing Qing Shui here, Meng Xinran was emotionally surging, she really wanted to ask Qing Shui, why didn't she say goodbye at the beginning, she also wanted to ask Qing Shui where she had been in the past few years, whether she had ever been back to Taifu's mansion, whether she had seen her father, his old man was in good health......
Even though there are thousands of words, when she thinks of her current identity, she swallows all the words that come to her mouth, and only looks at Qing Shui forbearantly, silent.Qing Shui was a little defensive when she was in a strange place, so she smiled comfortingly at Meng Xinran and explained: "Don't be afraid, this is the courtyard of my master, you were unconscious last night, and it was my master who saved you."
Your hand is burned by fire, and you need to rub the medicine every two hours, rest assured, the injury is not serious and will not leave a scar. ”As soon as Qing Shui said, Meng Xinran felt the pain in his hands.The arm of his right hand was wrapped in a loose layer of gauze, and the pain of the burn was like a needle prick, Meng Xinran immediately frowned, thinking about other things in his heart, he didn't feel how much pain his arm was, but now that his attention has shifted, he feels that he can't bear it.Qing Shui sat on the edge of the bed, his fingers gently lifted the gauze, and carefully applied the ointment in the porcelain bottle to the burned wound.Meng Xinran's injury was not serious as Qing Shui said, but when the ointment just touched the red and swollen skin, Meng Xinran still hissed in pain, Qing Shui glanced at her, and the action of rubbing the medicine was lighter.Meng Xinran gritted her teeth, and then refused to make a sound, even if it was Qing Shui, she didn't want her to see her weakness for a while.The effect of the ointment for burns is excellent, although the pain in the hand at the beginning is unbearable, but in less than a stick of incense, a rich cooling sensation comes from the arm, dissolving the pain of the burn.Meng Xinran secretly breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Qing Shui: "Thank you." ”Qing Shui handed the porcelain vase to the little maid standing behind her, and smiled lightly: "The girl doesn't have to thank you, I was also instructed by my master, so I don't dare to thank you for it." ”Having said that, Meng Xinran still smiled gratefully at her.Seeing this, Qing Shui turned sideways, which was a thank you gift to avoid her.She could see that although this girl was soft and weak and looked easy to speak, her temperament was a little stubborn, and what she believed would not be easily changed.It's like her young lady.Qing Shui remembered that his young lady felt a little sad in his heart, if the young lady was still alive, I am afraid that she would like this Meng girl, after all, they are so similar.When the ointment has completely dissolved, the water is used to wrap the wound in clean and breathable gauze.The arm was no longer painful and couldn't even move, Meng Xinran raised his arm and looked around, looking like he was looking for someone.Qing Shui knew what Meng Xinran was worried about, and said in time: "Your mother and younger brother are in the guest room next door, but they haven't woken up yet. ”Meng Xinran remembered that Meng's mother was almost killed in the fire, and couldn't help but worry anxiously: "Is there a big problem with my mother?"
”Qing Shui shook his head: "Ling Tang's body is fine, but he inhaled too much smoke and dust, and the doctor said that it would take two days to wake up." ”"What about my brother?"
Meng asked happily.Qing Shui: "Brother Ling was afraid that he was a little frightened, and he woke up and fell asleep again just now." ”Meng Xinran breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it's okay.Seeing that she had no other instructions, Qing Shui led her subordinates out of the room.Meng Xinran couldn't see Qing Shui's figure, so he exhaled heavily.There was no one in the room, Meng Xinran couldn't help but smile bitterly, now that she was identified, she didn't dare to say anything more in front of Qing Shui.Chapter 12 012 Meng Xinran missed Meng Mu and Xiaorui in her heart, and went to the guest room next door after getting out of bed.Meng Mu's breathing was flat, and a red mark on her face wiped her forehead, but other than that, her body was intact.Meng Xinran's heart that had been hanging finally fell.Xiao Rui slept in the crook of Meng's mother's arm, holding her mother's arm and not letting go, and there were still traces of undried water on her white and tender face.Meng Xinran wiped away his tears for him in distress, tucked the quilt again, sat in the room and watched for a while, and quietly went out of the room.The wound on his hand was still aching, and Meng Xinran couldn't stay any longer, so he walked to the courtyard outside.Begonia flowers are planted in the courtyard, and the lush branches are full of flowers, clustered together, gorgeous and dazzling, like ten thousand clouds, beautiful things.Meng Xinran looked for the begonia flowers, and unconsciously came to the courtyard in front of him.Different from the begonia flowers in the backyard, as far as the eye can see in the front yard, the craggy rockeries are densely covered, leaving only a pebbled sheep intestine path that quietly winds to the front, touching the mountain rocks on the side, turning abruptly, and the road comes to an abrupt end.Meng Xinran frowned, the layout of the courtyard was too strange and too strict, and it looked like he was guarding against someone.However, the more strange it was, the more she couldn't hold back the curiosity in her heart, and subconsciously lightened her steps.A faint voice came from the front, and although the movement was small, the familiar voice suddenly made Meng Xinran stop his steps, and his heart beat violently.Qingyuan!
Meng Xinran's hanging fingertips trembled, she thought that the person who saved her family last night was a well-intentioned person who she didn't know, which Cheng thought that it was Chu Jingqi in the end.Also, she should have thought that Qing Shui appeared here, then the owner behind her wanted to be someone familiar with Qing Shui, and everything between Chu Jingqi and Shen Ru, Qing Shui, as the most direct bystander, was the most clear, and she couldn't think of anyone else who could gain Qing Shui's trust besides Chu Jingqi.Meng Xinran was in a dilemma for a while.She wanted to see him, but she didn't dare to see him.After struggling, she tugged at her fingertips, and finally made up her mind to take a step forward.Look at him, just look at this one, and from now on this thought will be broken.The voice in front of her became clearer and clearer, and Meng Xinran's heart became more and more nervous, but before she could see the person she expected, a loud shout suddenly sounded in her ears: "Who?"
”The anticipation cooled down at this moment, and Meng Xinran looked at Chu Dao who came out of nowhere, and suddenly felt a little more flustered.Chu Dao's eyes were cold, and he looked at Meng Xinran vigilantly, holding the hilt of the knife tightly in his hand, as if as long as Meng Xinran said something that threatened anyone, he could kill her immediately.Even if Meng Xinran was calm, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.This is Chu Jingqi's secret guard, a group of people who only haunt in the dark, and in their eyes, human life is no different from ants.In front of Chu Dao, Meng Xinran didn't dare to hide the truth: "I saw that the begonia flowers in the courtyard were blooming well, and I walked here unconsciously."
I ......"
Chu Dao looked at her darkly, and Meng Xinran's words were stuck in his throat.Chu Dao had seen Shen Ru, but he didn't know Meng Xinran, so he grabbed Meng Xinran's shoulder and pushed forward mercilessly.Meng Xinran was pushed and staggered, and her body hidden behind the rockery was exposed, she covered her shoulders and looked up, and at a glance she saw Chu Jingqi sitting at the stone table and drinking tea leisurely.Chu Jingqi was not surprised to see her, not even a trace of afterglow, raised his hand to hold the purple clay pot, and his sleeve slid down along the action of pouring tea, revealing a good-looking wrist.Chu Jingqi took a sip of tea and put down the teacup, as if he had just seen Meng Xinran, and his eyes fell on her coldly.Meng Xinran's face was hot, she was held in front of Chu Jingqi by Chu Dao, and for the first time she felt an incomprehensible embarrassment, and when she met Chu Jingqi's gaze, she flinched, hung her head slightly, and kept picking at the tip of her index finger with her thumb.Chu Jingqi looked at her strangely, without any warmth in his eyes: "Miss Meng, is it fun to eavesdrop?"
”When he saw Chu Jingqi again three years later, Meng Xinran saw the change in him at a glance, and the former hearty and gentle disappeared from him, replaced by a gloomy atmosphere full of cold air.Hearing his words at this time, Meng Xinran was sour and at the same time, his heart sank, and he subconsciously retorted: "I'm not eavesdropping, I just watched the begonia flowers fall into my mind, and I couldn't help but come over." ”"Can't help it?"
Chu Jingqi seemed to have heard something terrible, and looked at her, "Oh, that Miss Meng's love can't help but be more special, and she actually passed through the backyard and came to this pile of rocks to enjoy the flowers." ”The surrounding mountains and rocks are a piece of rocks, where can you enjoy the flowers.Chu Jingqi's words were indifferent, but Meng Xinran heard the ridicule, sarcastically making excuses for being seen through.Meng Xinran sneered, and her voice lowered: "I want to come and thank the people who saved my mother and my brother." ”Chu Jingqi's face was expressionless: "The way Miss Meng thanked her is really different and impressive." ”Meng Xinran: "......"

Chu Jingqi's words were full of thorns, Meng Xinran was ashamed and had a few traces of indignation and grievances, didn't she just want to look at him, and sarcastically mock her like a prisoner.Thinking of this, Meng Xinran was also angry in her heart, her face turned slightly cold, and she broke the jar and said, "Then what does the prince want?"
I'm eavesdropping on you, am I going to lock me up?
”Chu Jingqi frowned slightly and did not speak.Meng Xinran straightened her back, tilted her chin slightly and looked at Chu Jingqi sitting on the stone bench, her momentum was not weaker than Chu Jingqi at all.Being hit like this, Chu Jingqi didn't get angry, and casually flicked the tea leaves floating on the water with a tea cup, and his tone was still light: "Miss Meng, is this your attitude when talking to your life-saving benefactor?"
If so, it would be a real eye-opener for the king. ”Chu Jingqi's fight back without softness or hard made Meng Xinran know that he was at a loss, after all, it was Chu Jingqi who sent someone to save them, and she actually didn't know whether to live or die with such an attitude towards Chu Jingqi, but when she thought that Chu Jingqi was neither yin nor yang, and embarrassed her everywhere, Meng Xinran still felt angry.She didn't know that this person was so angry now.Meng Xinran tugged at his fingertips, and complained with some anger: "Then what do you want?"
”After speaking, not only Meng Xinran was stunned, but even Chu Jingqi was stunned, and his gaze at Meng Xinran was a little more disgusted.Meng Xinran's face turned pale, how could she have forgotten that she was not Shen Ru now, and it was the first time she had met Chu Jingqi, how could she use such a familiar and intimate tone with him.But the words could not be taken back, and Meng Xinran was worried about whether he would offend Chu Jingqi more, and whether his original identity would be seen through by him.Just when Meng Xinran was uneasy, Chu Jingqi spoke: "What does this king want...... paused, Chu Jingqi glanced at Meng Xinran, Meng Xinran met his eyes, and sighed in his heart.Chu Jingqi looked behind Meng Xinran and said slowly: "Take care of her, don't let people come to the front yard to enjoy the flowers." ”After the words fell, Chu Jingqi got up and left without looking back.Meng Xinran was stunned, was he going to imprison her?
But why?
Because of the previous collision?
Meng Xinran couldn't figure it out, the Chu knife behind her had already buckled her shoulders and led people to the backyard.Chu Jingqi returned to the study, Chu saw that he hurriedly came from outside, and Chu Dao dodged and hid in the dark.When Chu saw Chu Jingqi, he saluted and said respectfully: "Lord Wang, Miss Meng's identity has been clarified. ”Chu Jingqi looked at him.Chu Jian immediately said: "This girl is from Suihe County, Anjing who came to Anjing as early as ten days ago, it is also a coincidence, on the day the prince came to Anjing and met the bandits, the person who saved her was this Meng girl." ”Chu Jingqi interrupted him impatiently: "You saved it." ”Chu saw that he was speechless, and his face was a little embarrassed.It's just that the prince doesn't like women, why is it that he is even less close to women now.Chu Jingqi glanced at him and said, "Go on." ”Chu Jian retracted his thoughts and said, "Miss Meng's family has been looking for her father when they came to Anjing.His father's name was Meng Sen, who came to Anjing two months earlier to work as a carpenter, and was later recruited by the Xu Mansion, and after that, he was never heard from and no one saw him.Miss Meng began to inquire about Meng Sen after being targeted, last night's fire, Fang Street was rumored to be a disaster victim accidentally walked the water, but the subordinates took people to see, other people's homes were too windy to be affected, only the Meng family was poured oil. ”Chu Jingqi tapped his fingertips on the desktop and said, "Did the person who set the fire find out?"
”Chu Jian shook his head: "Last night was too chaotic, those people couldn't be found in the crowd, and it was difficult to find out." ”Chu Jingqi nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Let your people be removed from the Xu Mansion." ”Chu was puzzled: "Lord Wang, who are you?"
”Chu Jingqi rubbed the jade pendant on his waist and said thoughtfully: "Zhong Yu is an old fox, it is not easy to catch him, Han Busheng is a fool, it is estimated that he was sold by Zhong Yu and did not know."
Xu Fu is a breakthrough, but now the woman you rescued is a trouble. ”"It's inevitable to startle the snake, Chu Jian."
Chu Jingqi said to Chu Jian, "Find a way to let that woman infiltrate the Xu Mansion, since she wants to find her father, this king will help her."
All your people have to do is keep an eye on her, and don't let her go wrong. ”"Yes."
Chu saw the order."
And."
Chu Jingqi continued, "Don't stare too closely at Zhong Yu's side, he is estimated to be anxious now, and he is afraid that something will happen if he is in a hurry."
You must know that the dog jumps over the wall when he is in a hurry, not to mention that this is a jackal in sheep's clothing.As for Han Busheng, he just let him do without any movement, don't let people die. ”Chu saw that it should be one by one, and then retreated.Chu Jingqi rubbed his eyebrows, thinking of Meng Xinran, who was under house arrest in the backyard, and the folds between his eyebrows were twisted again.His Xiaoru has been dead for three years, and it is impossible for that woman to ......
After thinking about it, Chu Jingqi removed Meng Xinran's shadow from his mind, and his face returned to calm.The author has something to say: Huh~ The front is finally finished, and the male and female protagonists "ding" are online together~ ======== Meng Xinran: What about the good pity and cherishing the jade?
Am I not your favorite?
Chu Jingqi: Didn't you hear Chu Jian, this king is not close to women, unless- Meng Xinran: Unless what?
Chu Jingqi: Take off the vest Meng Xinran trembled, you must cover the vest and can't let people flower threads!
Chapter 13 013 Meng Xinran sat under the eaves and looked up at the blue sky.Although Chu Jingqi saved them, he also put them under house arrest, there were two guards standing at the door between the front yard and the back yard, guarding there for twelve hours a day, except for the backyard, Meng Xinran couldn't go anywhere else.Although the scope of activities was restricted, Chu Jingqi did not embarrass them anymore, and there were special maids to deliver three meals a day.Meng Xinran tried to use them to understand the situation in the courtyard, but these maids were indifferent, as if they were dumb, and repeatedly delivered and received food, without any other reaction.After only three things, Meng Xinran didn't ask, she knew that these people were ordered by Chu Jingqi, and she didn't dare to confide in half a word.A sense of loss arose, she knew that people would change, but she didn't expect it to become so complete."
Gladly."
Meng Mu led Xiaorui over, "How long are we going to live here?"
The master of this house didn't come forward, so let's thank you. ”Meng's mother was frightened by the fire, and after waking up, she dreamed again and again, and Meng Xinran comforted her for a long time before she gradually let go.Living in Chu Jingqi's mansion these days, Meng Xinran told her that it was a kind person who saved them, and other things about Chu Jingqi were kept secret.Meng's mother was timid and afraid of causing trouble, so she stayed in her own one-third of an acre of land without crossing the backyard, because she always thought that the other party was a good-hearted family.Meng Xinran didn't dare to reveal the truth, and said vaguely: "I'm afraid there is something." ”Meng Mu didn't think much about it, but said: "We've stayed long enough, it's not good to stay and not leave, Xinran, you don't want to say a word to the steward here." ”The steward that Meng Mu said in her mouth was Qing Shui.Xu was ordered by Chu Jingqi, and Qing Shui has been responsible for helping Meng Xinran change his wound medicine.Compared with the maid who delivered three meals, Qing Shui was obviously closer to Chu Jingqi and knew the most about the things in this courtyard, but Meng Xinran didn't dare to open up to her.Qing Shui knew everything about Shen Ru, and Meng Xinran was afraid that her inadvertent action would arouse suspicion, so she always responded silently to Qing Shui if it was unnecessary.Just when Meng Xinran racked his brains to avoid Meng's mother's words, a familiar figure walked from the begonia bushes not far away, it was Chu Jian.Xiao Rui saw that his eyes suddenly lit up, and shouted loudly: "Uncle!
”Chu Jian walked over with a smile, kindly rubbed Xiao Rui, who was looking up at him, bowed his head to the surprised Meng Mu, turned his head to Meng Xinran and said, "Miss Meng, please come with me, my master wants to see you." ”can let Chu see it, Meng Xinran understands that Chu Jingqi has something to look for him, eight times out of ten.Nine is not a good thing, she is already prepared in her heart, and said calmly: "Okay." ”Meng Mu was not calm when she saw Chu Jian.She remembered that when she was in Liucheng Town, it was the handsome adult in front of her who sent Xiaorui back.What's going on now?
Meng Mu looked at Meng Xinran, but the other party turned his face away, avoiding her gaze, and had no meaning to explain.Chu saw that he didn't say much, he took out a handful of pine nuts and handed them to Xiao Rui, peeled one of them, and brought it to his mouth, Xiao Rui opened his mouth and held it, the thick sweetness melted in his mouth, and he laughed happily."
Please, Miss Meng."
Chu Jian made a gesture of please.Meng happily bowed his head and raised his foot to take a step."
Wait."
Meng Mu hurriedly grabbed Chu Jian's sleeve, and her finger bones turned white.Mother Meng didn't care about whether she would offend Chu Jian at this time, her mind was full of worries about Meng Xinran: "This adult, what's wrong with my family Xinran?"
Why did your master see her?
She's still young, you, don't hurt her, something comes at me. ”Meng Xinran's heart was sour, and she hurriedly said: "Mother, don't worry, they saved us, and his master may have come back, so he asked me to go over, don't worry." ”Although Meng Mu was skeptical, she also slowly loosened Chu Jian's sleeve.Chu saw that he had a good temper, and waited for Meng Xinran to explain to Meng's mother on the side.Meng Xinran picked some words to tell Meng Xinran, Meng Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and Meng Xinran walked away with Chu Jian, she hugged Xiao Rui with bulging cheeks, still looking at Meng Xinran's back worriedly.Chu Jian took Meng Xinran in front of him, and it didn't take long for him to come to Chu Jingqi's study.Chu Jingqi stood in front of the desk, bowing his head and quietly drawing a wood carved deer on the table.The fawn is very rough carved, the body of the deer is pitted, the body is very dull, the antlers on the head stand straight and straight, carved not like horns but like a few weeds.Despite this, the fawn looks smooth and smooth on the surface, as if the edges and corners of the body have been smoothed out by life.Meng Xinran's eyes flashed, and he fell on the deer, a little more nostalgic and abrupt.Chu Jian stood aside: "Lord Wang, someone brought it." ”Chu Jingqi hummed, finished the last stroke, put down the pen, and faced Meng Xinran.He stood there and said straight to the point: "Miss Meng, do you know how the fire in Minxiang came about?"
”Meng Xinran couldn't help but recall the night of the fire, the wind was strong at night, the smell of oil lamps wafting through the room, and the sound of raindrops could be heard in his ears......
Meng Xinran's expression widened.Someone deliberately set the fire?
Chu Jingqi saw her reaction and knew that she understood, and said, "It seems that there is no need for this king to say more, Miss Meng also knows it in her heart." ”Reason overcame emotion, facing Chu Jingqi today, Meng Xinran didn't dare to be the slightest sloppy, and said vigilantly: "I don't know why the prince called the people's daughter to come?"
”Chu Jingqi didn't answer, but said on his own, regardless of whether Meng Xinran wanted to hear it or not: "This king's people found several unclaimed corpses in the rubble, since the girl has lived in Minxiang, I wonder if I can help this king recognize it, so that the relatives of these deceased people can come to claim it and go back to the earth for peace?"
”Meng Xinran didn't understand what it meant to recognize it, and Chu Jian on the side had already taken out a golden hairpin and a wooden hairpin.Meng Xinran's pupils shrank suddenly, and he curled up his fingers.She recognized the two pieces of jewelry.When Zheng Cuihe came to Minxiang to find trouble with his family, he wore a golden hairpin in Chu Jian's hand on his head, and another wooden hairpin was bought by Meng Xinran and given to Aunt Xu.It turned out that Zheng Cuihe had died a long time ago.Aunt Ke Xu......
Xufu!
Meng Xinran closed her eyes, opened them, and her eyes had regained calm, and she said, "What does the prince want the people to do?"
”Chu Jingqi glanced at her appreciatively, shook his head and said, "This king is just kind, I heard that Miss Meng's father disappeared in Xu Mansion, I wonder if Miss Meng has thought of going to Xu Mansion to ask for understanding?"
”Having said that, how could Meng Xinran not hear the hidden meaning behind Chu Jingqi, she glanced at Chu Jingqi deeply, and couldn't help but feel strange emotions, she mocked: "If the prince has something to say, you might as well say it directly, I can't run out of your mansion left and right, not to mention my mother and younger brother."
All you have to say is, can I say no?
