Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 111 So You Came to Collect Debt Today
Standing outside the library, Jiang Wei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Jinyan coming from a distance with Xue Yan.

He stepped forward quickly and said: "Miss, Zhen Guohou is waiting in the flower hall of the library."

Jiang Jinyan already expected it to be him.

She sighed slightly, but seemed relieved.

It's funny to think about it, when I encounter a hurdle that I can't get past, Xu Junyan can always appear in my sight.

Also, who else could it be but him?

She turned her face and glanced at the flower hall.

And from the place where she stood, she could only see an orchid on the shelf next to the door of the flower hall.

The few slender leaves of the pot of orchids are bright green on the brown shelf, which is extremely rare and pleasing to the eye in winter.

She retracted her gaze and asked, "Marquis Zhen Guo...has he ever told you what happened? Why do you come to the Marquis' mansion at this time?"

Jiang Wei shook his head and said: "Zhen Guohou also came in a hurry, he just said he wanted to see you, I saw that there seemed to be something important, so I asked the woman in the library to report."

Jiang Jinyan pursed his lips slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Forget it, Uncle Jiang, let's go to the front yard to do some work. Here... I'll go and have a look."

Jiang Wei was also relieved of Xu Junyan's behavior, so he nodded and turned to leave.

After Jiang Jinyan took a step forward towards the flower hall, his heart skipped a beat.

After suppressing the inexplicable feeling in her heart, she steadied her pace and went to the flower hall.

She didn't stop until she saw a hem embroidered with bamboo patterns next to the orchid.

He was actually standing on the edge of this orchid!
The dark blue clothes are indifferent and clear, seeming to be more elegant than the orchids, the bamboo pattern on it is exquisite and extremely embroidered, it is as ethereal as the bamboo forest.

Probably only Xu Junyan can combine the indifference of bamboo and Ling Li so skillfully.

But this is really a long-lost feeling...

Facing his deep and intense eyes like ink, she said in a daze: "You..."

Although I was rescued by him in Baohua Mountain, but I fell down the hillside in a daze, and I only vaguely remember that I fell into a warm breath...

It's him?

She was so dazed that she even forgot to salute.

Xu Junyan saw that she was flustered as a girl in a boudoir at this time, so he gave a low chuckle.

A clear voice sounded, "You don't need to be too polite."

Jiang Jinyan's face turned red at this moment, he didn't expect to be stunned, and even forgot the etiquette.

Just as she was about to bend her knees, she felt dizzy just like the moment she was in Wutong Garden.

When he got up in a hurry, he couldn't stand still!

Just as he was about to hit the shelf with orchids, his body suddenly lightened.

Before he could exclaim in surprise, he suddenly fell into the arms of a mint fragrance.

The mint fragrance woke her up in an instant.

She blushed and stabilized her body, took a step back and said: "I made you laugh, Jin Yan was rude."

There was a hint of panic in her voice.

Seeing that she was going to salute again, Xu Junyan's eyes darkened, "There's no need to salute, the injury from last time hasn't healed yet? Why is your body so weak?"

I had roughly seen the injury last time, and the blood-stained skirt still scares me!
Thinking of the pain of her rolling down the hill, I couldn't calm down...

"It's okay, the injury has been in the house for a long time."

After Jiang Jinyan finished speaking, he saluted slightly.

Xu Junyan frowned slightly, thinking that when he helped her up just now, it was obvious that she was much lighter than when he rescued her in Baohua Mountain that day.

Jiang Jinyan lowered his head and saw the scars on the back of his hand that were gradually becoming shallower, and then he thought of the fat cream sent by Imperial Physician Feng that day.

It is indeed not ordinary, the scars are gradually shallow.

She hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and asked, "The ointment sent by Ritai Hospital that day, is that what you mean?"

Xu Junyan was surprised for a moment, and then he was relieved in an instant.

This girl has always been meticulous... How many things can she keep from her?
With a gentle look in his eyes, he said with a smile, "This ointment is just a matter of effort."

In previous years, there were quite a few rare medicinal materials given to Imperial Physician Feng. Although this fat cream was used in the palace, it was not worth a single bit of those rare medicinal materials.

With such a smile, the originally cold and even tense atmosphere eased a lot.

Only then did Jiang Jinyan feel a little more relaxed, she turned her head and asked, "What's the purpose of your visit this time?"

Seeing that she was still cautious, Xu Junyan sighed secretly.

He glanced at Jiang Jinyan who was standing on the side, and then slowly sat down on the first mahogany chair with twig pattern on the left.

He raised his eyes and said, "This matter is not urgent... Miss Jiang should sit down first."

Jiang Jinyan's slight frown as he forced himself to support his body naturally did not escape his eyes.

This girl has always been stubborn, I'm afraid if I don't notice her strangeness, she will stand here until she can't hold on anymore!

Seeing that his expression was resolute, even showing a hint of indisputability, Jiang Jinyan could only nod, and sat down on the chair diagonally across from him.

"Can you speak now?"

She vaguely felt that Xu Junyan came here for the food.

Seeing that her complexion had improved, Xu Junyan was relieved.

"Miss Jiang must know about Zhang Jian, right?"

Sure enough, it was for this matter!Does he already know Zhang Jian?

It seems...he knows no less than himself.

Jiang Jinyan's heart moved, but he still hesitated, "You mean..."

Seeing her like this, Xu Junyan said with a slightly stern expression: "Master Jiang has indeed made a lot of trouble this time. I have already searched Zhang Jian's house. I am afraid that the batch of food and grass will not be recovered."

Sure enough, it was for this matter that he searched Zhang Jian's mansion!

Seeing what he said, Jiang Jinyan could only bite his lip and said in a daze: "If there is no other way... After all, you are also involved in this matter, so it's better not to get involved. Jinyan will just pretend that you haven't been here today. Jing'an Marquis Mansion."

Xu Junyan's eyes were suddenly stained with anger, "Is that how you are guarding against me?"

Jiang Jinyan had never seen his tone like this before, and hurriedly stood up and said, "I've never..."

"Never? Jiang Jinyan..."

As he said that, he turned his face away, "That's all..."

In an instant he got up and stood in front of her.

"The best way to solve this... I don't believe you can't think of it."

Jiang Jinyan's heart was tightly gripped.

right!I know it too!The best solution to this matter is to get his blessing, Xu Junyan!
But... what is this?

Why should I?

Why should he?

So what he said now...is he forcing himself?

She calmed down, raised her head, her eyes were clear, "Marquis Zhen Guo, you have a high position and authority, so it's better to be cautious in your words and actions. In the final analysis, this matter is also related to your Suzaku camp. If you trade Hastily helping our Jing'an Hou Mansion may affect your official career, Jin Yan can't afford it."

He became a little more angry, and his voice became colder, "Do you think I care?!"

Just when Jiang Jinyan was so startled by this sentence that he almost took a step back and was about to hit the corner of the table, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to protect her.

Seeing her acting like a frightened deer, he couldn't bear it, and said in a deep voice, "Jin Yan... If you don't want to...you can owe this favor."

Jiang Jinyan didn't seem to hear his deep and complicated Jinyan.

Only the sentence that you can owe this favor can't stop lingering in her mind.

Seeing that she had stopped listening, Xu Junyan smiled lightly and said, "You don't have to feel uneasy, if you want to pay it back, you have to pay it back."

He continued in a low voice: "Just take it as an explanation for you. You are always smart, so you naturally understand. How could I treat you well for no reason?"

Jiang Jinyan felt that these words seemed to remove a heavy stone from her heart, making her seem able to breathe.

But for some reason, these words were like a heavier stone hanging in front of his eyes.

She whispered: "But what's the matter...do you need the help of me, a woman from the back house?"

How can I pay it off myself?
Two generations owe each other...

He helped out again and again.

The Pinxiangxuan incident, the Yu Qingxian incident, Baohuashan, and even Fang Lijin was entrusted to solve his siege...

Xu Junyan gently picked up a black hair that had slipped from her shoulder on the mahogany tabletop behind her, and slowly wrapped it around his fingertips.

"Jin Yan, you still deserve it."

Only you can afford it.

He called himself...Jin Yan?

Jiang Jinyan turned his face away in panic, but missed the soft smile in Xu Junyan's eyes.

She curled her lips slightly, "So...you came to collect debts from Jin Yan today."

After saying this, Jiang Jinyan felt that he must be dazed.

He was as rude as Xu Junyan!

And rudely making himself feel comfortable like this!
Xu Junyan's light smile made Jiang Jinyan even more embarrassed.

Ever since I was reborn in this life, I have never been so at a loss!

Xu Junyan saw that she was really going to be annoyed, so he coughed lightly, "Since you said it was a debt, so what if you owe more? In my opinion, it has to be paid anyway..."

Xu Junyan, who has always been cold and indifferent, also has such a side? !

Jiang Jinyan bit his lips slightly, "You have to be careful with your words, Jinyan may not be worthy of this favor!"

How could he be so sure that he still deserves this favor?

Seeing her biting her lip and pretending to be stubborn, Xu Junyan's extremely elegant eyebrows became more delicate.

He smiled lightly, "Forget it, is your father in the mansion?"

Jiang Jinyan pulled back his thoughts, hesitated for a moment and said, "You want to..."

He couldn't help laughing, "Tomorrow is the deadline for grain adjustment, but Jin Yan forgot?"

Only then did Jiang Jinyan understand what he meant.

That's right, this matter is for Xu Junyan to discuss with his father.

After leaving the flower hall, the cool wind in winter blows in.

Jiang Jinyan paused slightly, his body trembled for a moment.

I came in such a hurry that I even forgot my cloak.

Seeing the movements of the little person in front, Xu Junyan realized that she was a little thinner.

"Just let someone lead the way, there is no need to send it."

Jiang Jinyan froze for a moment, "What did you say?"

Isn't he going to the study to meet his father?

Seeing Xu Junyan nodding seriously, she realized that he was looking at her thin clothes.

With a slightly red face, she said to Xue Yan beside the corridor: "Xue Yan, send someone to send Zhen Guohou to the master's study."

Xue Yan opened her mouth wide in shock, and understood in an instant.

Just say it!After all, it was the life-threatening friendship with the young lady!How could Zhen Guohou stand by and watch? !
