Chapter 139 A Noble Broken Sleeve
They set off in the afternoon at the beginning of Xia, and only reached Shuanglong Town when it was dark, and it was still three or four hours away from Xijing.Shuanglong Town is located on the official road from Gyeonggi to Xijing, and there are many merchants and pawns who come and go on weekdays, so the town is not small, and there are many inns.The coachman found an inn with ease and stopped the car.

Jiang Xiyuan stood at the door of the inn and looked up, and the waiter ran out to say hello.After Jiang Xiyuan helped Xia Chu out of the carriage, he went into the store to look around, and frowned slightly.Before he could open his mouth, Xia Chu came in and asked, "How much is it for one night?"

"Five taels of silver per night for an upper room, two taels of silver for an ordinary single room, and five taels of silver for a four-person room. We don't have a shop here, so turn left in the alley ahead..."

Xia Chu pointed to Jiang Xiyuan, and said to Xiaoer, "Does our master seem to be living in Tongpu?"

"Of course not." Xiao Er rubbed his hands together, "Your eyes are clumsy, so he just slipped out, don't be surprised."

"Not good." Jiang Xiyuan looked around and shook his head, "Where is the best inn in Shuanglong Town?"

"This is what we are!" Xiao Er raised his voice, "We also have Tianzihao rooms here! In the backyard, there are three rooms in total, all with flower halls. The courtyard is independent, and the dining hall is separated from the front building. Let’s go, 15 for two rooms.”

"Is there anyone living in the Tianzihao house?" Jiang Xiyuan asked.Xiao Er shook his head, "It's all empty."

"I want all three. Lead the way."

"Hey, ouch, that's fine! This way, please!" Xiao Er's eyes lit up, and he bowed to lead them back.Xia Chu hopped after Jiang Xiyuan, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, why are you renting three rooms?"

"There are outsiders watching. Besides, the inns here are full of merchants who are on the road. I have to get up and hurry before dawn tomorrow. I can't sleep well."

"I don't have a budget of 15 taels for a night when I go out on errands, and I won't report it when I go back to the accountant." Xia Chu tugged at his sleeve, "I only report one tael a day, you are so rich, why is the government so stingy? "

"I didn't open the government office, so it has nothing to do with me. I don't decide how much to pay, the imperial court has regulations. If you have me, why worry about the house money?" Jiang Xiyuan turned to her and said, "If this If you don't meet me the next time you come out, are you planning to live in Tongpu?"

"That's not the case. I saved a day of money by staying in the government office yesterday. I guess I will live in a single room. Oh, no, I may find a cheap inn to live in a single room."

"Are you really going to get stuck with a tael of silver?" Jiang Xiyuan snorted, "The people in the yamen come out to do errands to show their identities. Staying for a night and eating a meal are trivial matters. If you don't make money, it will be considered kind. You It's pretty solid."

Xia Chu glanced at him after listening, "Your Excellency knows about this kind of thing, don't you care about it? Wouldn't that be inaction."

"You don't have to be so jealous, they have their own way of balancing. You see a branch that is in the way and want to cut it off, but if you cut it down, it may collapse somewhere, and it may be even more difficult to deal with. Thousands of years. It’s been like this for a generation, unless it’s all collapsed and rebuilt, it’s better not to move.” He looked back at Xia Chu, “You don’t agree?”

"I don't know, I'm not at the height of an adult, and I can't think as much as an adult. But I think that what is wrong is wrong. If you find 1 reasons, it will still be wrong."

Jiang Xiyuan smiled tolerantly, "You have to allow wrong things to exist in this world, and they must exist. It's just that two evils are in power, sometimes the lesser is the lesser, and sometimes the last is the last."

Xia Chu didn't understand very well, so he couldn't refute anything for the time being, so he bowed his head and didn't speak.

Xiao Er stopped in front of a courtyard door and pushed the door open, "You two, this is it. This is a little distance from the front building and the back kitchen, so it is very quiet." He took the two of them into the courtyard and put a few rooms The doors of the houses were opened to show them, and the lamps were lit.

I haven't stayed in an inn at the beginning of Xia, and I think it's pretty good.The three guest rooms form a courtyard with a garden, benches and a large fish tank.There is no strange smell in the room, the bed and furniture are all carved hardwood, and the bedding looks clean, which is reassuring.Jiang Xiyuan's gaze was very picky, and after a cursory scan, he felt that it was still livable.

"Bring over two buckets of bath water, and then prepare the dishes on the table. Don't be too greasy, and the tea should be better." Jiang Xiyuan instructed Xiaoer.

Xiao Er nodded, and told them that there was a tether by the courtyard door, and they could hear it when they pulled it on the floor, and that someone would come to wait on them, and then went down, and after a while, hot water was delivered to the two people's room.

"How are your feet?" Jiang Xiyuan pointed to Xia Chu's feet, "Can you take a bath? Do you want me to help you?"

Xia Chu was taken aback, and while stepping back, he waved his hands desperately, "My lord, are you kidding me!"

Jiang Xiyuan was puzzled, "Why is there such a big reaction?"

Xia Chu laughed a few times, she forgot that she was a man, cleared her throat quickly and said, "You are also a third-rank member of the imperial court, so why not help me take a bath."

Jiang Xiyuan thought about it for a while, and felt awkward, so he curled his lips and said, "Who is going to help you take a bath, I'm afraid you won't be able to climb into the bathtub." After speaking, he turned his head and left, "Be careful yourself .”

After entering the room, Jiang Xiyuan took off his clothes, let his hair loose, soaked himself in the bucket, put his arm on the edge of the bucket, and listened carefully to the movement in Chu Xia, but there was nothing.

He exhaled, thinking about what Chu Xia said about taking a bath just now, he felt weird in his heart.This blame is not because of Xia Chu, but because of himself.

It seemed...he didn't seem interested in looking at Chu Xia's body either.On the contrary, imagine two men facing each other naked, and he still feels quite uncomfortable.But didn't he break his sleeve?
What are the men with broken sleeves and masculinity doing?Of course Jiang Xiyuan didn't think that it was two men sitting together, chatting from poetry to philosophies of life.If so, why is he not interested?Why is he so noble in cutting off his sleeves?
He looked down at himself in the water, still feeling awkward.Is the sleeve broken or not?Did you misunderstand yourself?But if it was a misunderstanding, what about those dizzy heartbeats?

Is it a sign of chest pain?
Jiang Xiyuan couldn't figure it out. The accumulation of various problems made his mood extremely complicated. He felt that it might be necessary to go to the Zhiyi Building after returning to the capital to make a confirmation.Otherwise, you can only go to the hospital to ask for a pulse, don't die suddenly at a young age.

At the beginning of Xia, he repeatedly confirmed that the door was fastened before he dared to take off his clothes, untied the cloth wrapped around his chest, and took a deep breath.She moved a chair and found a stool to make a step for herself, and climbed into the bucket carefully.

After running the horse for a day yesterday, she was sweating all over from nervousness, and went to sleep at night. Today, she was on her way again, and she felt that she was going to stink, so she felt a lot more relaxed after soaking in the water.

When I climbed out after washing, my whole body was soft, and my stomach was screaming with hunger.She took out a clean chest cloth, looked at herself again, wondering if she wouldn't be able to tell if it wasn't wrapped, hesitated again and again, and tied it for herself.

Why is the chest no longer flat?Xia Chu was thinking while wrapping the cloth, thinking about it felt so sad.Unexpectedly, she is too big to be like this, she can be regarded as a hero among women.

When I went out of the room, it was dark again, the cool wind at night was about to blow, the heat of the day hadn't dissipated, the half-cold and half-hot air seemed to be distinct, and the body felt very strange.At this time, the courtyard lights have been lit, whether it is bright or dark, it feels like an open-air bar that is ready to open at night.

Jiang Xiyuan was already sitting in the yard, and changed into a wine-red wide-sleeved gown of light material, without a belt, with his hands resting on the table and his cheeks showing half of his arms, with his eyes half-closed, he didn't know what he was thinking, and he was in a daze look.Her hair was loose and fell on her shoulders in strands without mess. The whole person looked lazy and casual, very comfortable.

Xia Chu looked at it, smiled, and felt that Jiang Xiyuan like this was really deceptive. If it was a woman who didn't know his childish nature, at this moment, if he raised his eyelids and smiled lightly, his soul would fly away.

I have to admit that when Jiang Xiyuan is quiet, his temperament is really good.

Xia Chu didn't like rich people very much before, she didn't hate rich people, mainly because those rich people wanted others to know that they were rich too much.But she didn't hate that Jiang Xiyuan was rich, not because she was short of money by borrowing from him, but mainly because he spent his money so naturally, as if he didn't have any flair for doing something rich.

It turns out that the so-called aristocrats and rich people are completely two concepts.The temperament of the children of the aristocratic family cannot be pretended, it is the heartless and heartless life of a good life and a lot of gold and silver poured over many years.

And what about Su Zhen?Xia Chu couldn't help but think of him, she felt that Su Zhen and Jiang Xiyuan seemed different, but she couldn't tell exactly what was different.

Jiang Xiyuan raised his eyes and looked at Xia Chu, "Why are you still wearing dirty clothes, don't you think it stinks?"

In a word, the hazy beauty disappeared in an instant, just like a bossa nova tune suddenly switched to the most dazzling ethnic style.Xia Chu glanced at him and walked over, "I've changed my middle coat, and this is the coat I took with me. It's only been worn for the second day, so it won't stink."

The food on the table was already set, Xia Chu sat down in front of the table, picked up the chopsticks and ate without saying a word.Only then did Jiang Xiyuan pick up the bowl, furtively looked at Xia Chu's figure, and frowned.

Chatting during the meal, Jiang Xiyuan asked why Xia Chu bought a grape pendant as a gift, and whether it had any special meaning.

"Grapes are prospering and prospering. They have more children and more blessings. There is no special meaning." Xia Chu said without raising his head while eating, "When you get married, my lord, I will also give..."

"Send grapes too?" Jiang Xiyuan smiled and said, "You won't send me a bunch of real grapes to send me away, will you?"

Xia Chu glanced at him, pursed his lips and smiled and shook his head, "No grapes. If you want to get married, my lord, remember to tell me early so that I can save money and prepare presents."

"I didn't say I wanted to get married."

"That's it, I will save this gift, thank you sir for understanding me."

"It's my birthday on the second day of next month." Jiang Xiyuan leaned forward and stared at her, "What do you want to give me?"

"Really? The second day of next month?" Xia Chu thought for a while, grinning with white teeth, "Don't say it, it's quite similar."

"What do you mean? What does it look like?" Jiang Xiyuan asked a little warily, feeling that there was nothing good to say about Xia Chu's smile like this.

"It's nothing." If the birthday in early May is changed to the Western Yuan calendar, it is likely to be a Gemini. Not to mention, Jiang Xiyuan's personality seems to be a bit of a Gemini.Xia Chu chuckled secretly, "There is a saying in my hometown that a man born in early May is a flirtatious man."

"Where did you say that?!" The corners of Jiang Xiyuan's mouth twitched, thinking that it really wasn't a good thing! "The man born in early May is fickle, but what about the tenth day of April? What do you say in your hometown?"

"Stingy."

Well, that seems to be true.Jiang Xiyuan nodded in agreement.
