Chapter 112 Su Xuening

The days after Li Sangzhu and Ji Yangan got married were very sweet.

Ji Yang'an was distressed that Li Sangzhu was too thin, so he made all kinds of delicious food made by the kitchen and brought it to her in different ways every day, and whenever he had time, he dragged her to restaurants in the city.

Li Sangzhu said that he wanted to go out to see the mountains and rivers, so Ji Yangan took her away from all the guards and entourage, and slipped to the south of the city to see the Sophora japonica flowers falling all over the ground, to the highest mountain in the north of the city to watch the sunrise over the sea of ​​clouds, Fishing by the clearest creek in the east.

The love between the two is like honey mixed with oil, as long as they appear together, there will be no moment when their fingers are intertwined.

Even in order to accompany Li Sangzhu, Ji Yangan almost postponed all the banquets, and whenever someone asked, he would say: "I won't go, my wife is still waiting for me to go back for dinner."

Gradually, the voices in the city that were not optimistic about the two of them died down, replaced by envy and praise.

Even those old subordinates who had been secretly poking at the yin and yang were shut up.

Everything seemed to be moving towards happiness and happiness, if Su Xuening hadn't appeared.

One afternoon when the rainstorm had just stopped, the eaves were still dripping with rain, everywhere was wet, and the air was full of damp smell.

The dark clouds in the distance have not dissipated, and there is a faint trend of getting darker and darker. A bigger rainstorm is accumulating power.

It was rare for Ji Yangan not to go to the mansion hall to discuss matters today, but to enjoy the rain and eat by the window with Li Sangzhu.

"After this autumn rain, the green peonies in Qishan should bloom. Do you want to see it?" Ji Yangan put a piece of boneless and skinless chicken into the mulberry and bamboo bowl, and asked with his eyes slightly raised.

"Think about it!" Li Sangzhu's eyes lit up: "Xiaoman told me a few days ago that the green peony in Qishan is the most famous in the whole Chunhui city. I have never seen this kind of chrysanthemum called green peony in my life. Ah Yang, when shall we go?"

"I'm afraid we have to wait for a while." Ji Yangan put down his chopsticks, his face suddenly became serious: "Last night in the city, there was a serious banditry in Yong'an Town, and the people were miserable. In two days, I will take people to Yong'an Town to suppress the bandits. "

"Suppression of bandits? So suddenly?" Li Sangzhu's face was full of worry: "Isn't that very dangerous?"

"It's nothing, your husband and I are very good at martial arts, those bandits will not be my opponent. It's just that this trip will take at least half a month or even two months. When I come back, the green peonies in Qishan will probably all be thanked."

"It doesn't matter," Li Sangzhu didn't care at all, just worried about Ji Yang's safety when he went to suppress the bandits: "It's the same if you don't see it this year and next year. If the green peony is there, you won't be able to escape. The most important thing is to eliminate the bandits. You go now." Be careful not to get hurt."

"Okay," Ji Yang'an nodded gratifiedly: "My wife is waiting at home, so my husband will come back safe and sound."

Li Sangzhu is always like this, putting Ji Yang'an's affairs and the affairs of the people in the city first, always understanding and supporting any decision he makes, and never embarrassing him.

This is also the reason why Ji Yangan's subordinates' perception of Li Sangzhu changed from bad to good in just a few months.

Three days later, the rain that lasted for several days finally stopped completely. Ji Yangan bid farewell to Li Sangzhu in front of the city gate, and took a group of soldiers to Yongan Town to suppress the bandits.

This walk is three months.

The banditry in Yong'an Town was more serious than they imagined. Ji Yang'an was not only injured, but also lost several confidantes.

In the first two months, Li Sangzhu could still receive Ji Yang'an's autographed family letter to report his safety, but in the last month, there was not even a single word. Li Sangzhu was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night.

Just when she was about to pack her luggage and take someone to Yong'an Town to find someone, news of Ji Yang'an's triumphant return suddenly came back to the city.

At that time, Li Sangzhu was still struggling with how many people he wanted to bring to support Ji Yangan, but a group of Ji Yangan's confidantes had already returned to the city first, and when the news was brought to her, Ji Yangan was almost there. I have entered the city, and I will be home before dark today.

Responding from the surprise, Li Sangzhu hurriedly went to wash and dress up, washing off her haggard and tiredness from the past few days, and wanted to meet her longing husband in the best condition.

Li Sangzhu originally wanted to go to the city gate to pick up Ji Yang An, but those confidantes who returned to the city first said that Ji Yang An personally ordered her to wait at home instead of going to the city gate.

Although he felt a little weird, Li Sangzhu didn't think much about it, and just stayed in the mansion obediently, waiting for Ji Yangan to come home.

Waiting for nothing to do on the way, she went to Ji Yangan's study to clean up with a few maids.

Li Sangzhu, the side wife, has always been gentle and easy-going, and the servants in the mansion get along well with her, so no one refuses her help.

While she was chatting and laughing with a few maids and wiping the bookshelf behind the desk, a rolled picture scroll suddenly fell out from the middle of the bookshelf and hit her foot.

She leaned over to pick up the picture scroll and opened it. When she saw the person in the picture, she first smiled, and then the smile stopped suddenly.

At first glance, she thought that the woman in the painting was herself, but after a closer look, she found that it was not, because there was an obvious tear mole in the corner of the woman's eye in the painting, but she did not.

Look at the three characters in the lower left corner of the portrait, Su Xuening.

The woman who looks very similar to her in this portrait is called Su Xuening.

But she had never heard this name from Ji Yangan.

Xiaoman, the maid next to her, saw that she was staring at the painting in her hand for a long time, so she turned her head and followed it curiously: "Ma'am, why are you so fascinated by looking at it..." Then the words suddenly stopped, and her face changed, and she was in a hurry. He took the painting from Li Sangzhu's hands and rolled it up: "Ma'am, this..."

"What are you doing?" Li Sangzhu looked puzzled.

"I... Ma'am," Xiaoman said with a flustered face, and hid the painting tightly behind her back.

"What's wrong?" Li Sangzhu gradually became suspicious: "Who is the person in this painting? Can you show it to me?"

"Not... ma'am,"

"No, then why are you hiding the painting?"

"I……"

Xiaoman stammered for a long time before I could say a complete sentence, Li Sangzhu suddenly felt something was wrong, and asked with a dark face, "Who is this woman named Su Xuening? Why did the city lord hide her portrait? And why are you?" Won't you show me the portrait?"

Xiaoman gritted his teeth and refused to answer.

At this time, another maid came forward and explained as she walked out with Li Sangzhu: "Madam, don't be angry, and don't blame Xiaoman, this is really the order of the city lord, telling us not to mention this person in front of Madam...

"Why aren't you allowed to mention it in front of me?"

"Hey," the maid sighed, remembering what Ji Yangan had told them, and said with a bitter face: "Miss Su Xuening is the daughter of a savior of the city lord, and the savior promised to take good care of her. But a few years ago, she suddenly disappeared inexplicably and could not be found anywhere, so the city lord drew the portrait to find her, but after he couldn't find it, the portrait was hidden, because he felt ashamed of the savior's entrustment, This matter has also become the city lord's heart disease. The city lord is afraid that Madam will misunderstand, so he told us not to mention this person in front of Madam."
