Chapter 150 Who Is My Brother
The next day, after the morning court, Su Zhen left Jiang Xiyuan behind.Jiang Xiyuan didn't know what was going on, because Su Zhen didn't speak, and the two sat facing each other, drinking tea one cup after another.

"What's going on recently?" Su Zhen put down the tea cup and asked.

"It's nothing." Jiang Xiyuan also put down the teacup. "A few days ago, it was reported in Gyeonggi that it rained several times in a row, so there will be no drought and poor harvest. The autumn harvest should be able to make up for the empty warehouse in Zhiying Xingzhou."

Su Zhen nodded, glanced at him, and pretended to be unintentional and asked, "There's no big case, right?"

"No, it's very peaceful." Jiang Xiyuan smiled.

In this way, Su Zhen couldn't ask any more questions, so he silently picked up the teacup.Jiang Xiyuan said some other things, but Su Zhen just listened and inserted a few words casually, seeming to lose interest.

After sitting for a while, Su Zhen asked Jiang Xiyuan to go back, making Jiang Xiyuan baffled, wondering whether it was related to the wedding, or simply related to Yongwei, and felt anxious.

After leaving the palace gate of the imperial study, I met An Liang head-on. Jiang Xiyuan greeted him. Seeing the sweat on his brow, he smiled and said, "Why is Mr. An running away on a hot day? Appoint someone below to go." It's over if you're busy."

"Master Jiang, don't tease me." An Liang is very familiar with Jiang Xiyuan, and he speaks very casually, "I dare to assign some things, but not others. If I mess up, who will pay me?"

"Whose head did the emperor chop off?"

"Hey, that's what it means. Isn't it that the emperor wants to listen to the show? How dare I tell others about this, and I will still be the one who scolds me if I don't wholeheartedly." An Liang said.

"Listening to an opera?" Jiang Xiyuan smiled, "The emperor is very interested, there have been no operas in the palace for a while."

"I'm so interested. Actually, I don't know for sure, but the emperor has to do it if he wants to hear it." He cupped his hands, "Master Jiang, I won't knock my teeth with you anymore. There is still something to do."

"Okay, you can go on with your work." Jiang Xiyuan watched An Liang walk in, and shook his head inexplicably.He didn't remember that Su Zhen loved to listen to operas, so what did he think of?
After leaving the palace, Jiang Xiyuan walked in the direction of the mansion, and after walking for a while, he turned back to the general's mansion. First, he flung his sleeves and left yesterday. He still hasn't figured out how to talk to Xia Chu again. Second, he wants to go and have a look Yong Wei.

When Jiang Xiyuan arrived, Yongwei was familiarizing herself with the etiquette in the room. After walking a few steps, she bowed down, knelt down and kowtowed after walking a few steps, and said Long live my emperor in a crisp voice to the air.When he raised his head, his eyes were bright, obviously full of anticipation for the upcoming life in the middle palace.

In other words, he was full of expectations for Su Zhen.

Jiang Xiyuan leaned against the door and watched quietly until Yongwei saw him, stood up and ran briskly in front of him, "Brother, why are you here without making a sound?"

"The emperor didn't tell you to flatten your body, so I dare not speak." Jiang Xiyuan laughed, and Yongwei punched her with a fist.Her fair face was slightly reddish by the summer heat, like a pink peach blossom that is about to bloom, very pretty.

"Are you familiar with the wedding etiquette?"

"Yeah." Yong Wei nodded, then pursed her lips lightly and shook Jiang Xiyuan's arm, "But I'm so nervous. Brother, what if I get so nervous and forget?"

"Forget it, forget it, the emperor will not send you back." Jiang Xiyuan patted her on the forehead, "Why are you nervous?"

"The emperor said so?"

"How could the emperor say that, I said it." Jiang Xiyuan laughed, walked around Yongwei and walked in, picked up a wide-mouthed crystal cup, sat at the table and poured himself a cup of refreshing fruit tea.

The tea is also pink, with honey-soaked sweet-scented osmanthus flowers as thin as rice.This is what Yongwei likes to drink.Yongwei is from the Jiang family, and the Jiang family is very particular, this is a strange thing.

Because his grandfather Jiang Zhutang and his father Jiang Min were both military generals, and both of them were strong men. To put it bluntly, they didn't care whether they washed their feet or face first when they brought a basin of water.Jiang Xiyuan thought, maybe the two elders are too rough, so things will be turned against each other, and they are the brothers and sisters who are particularly particular.

"Don't tease me at this time." Yong Wei said unwillingly, and then sighed softly, "Why doesn't the emperor come to see me? Before the wedding, doesn't the groom secretly visit the bride? It's like that everywhere."

"That's drama, this is reality. You're talking about the bridegroom, but he's the emperor."

"Maybe he came here secretly, I don't know?" Yong Wei rolled her eyes, "Brother, has the emperor been out of the palace recently? You are not allowed to lie to me, just tell me, so that I can feel at ease."

"You are at ease."

"What?" Yong Wei's eyes lit up, looking at him expectantly.

"The emperor hasn't been out of the palace recently." Jiang Xiyuan said with a smile, "Stop thinking about it, it's true to do your part well."

"It's really not like what you said..."

Jiang Xiyuan was silent for a while, and asked her: "After the big wedding, there will be a harem draft in a few days. Yongwei, although you haven't personally experienced the things in the harem during the previous dynasty, you have heard about it. It is not a comfortable place."

"I know." Yong Wei's expression darkened a bit, "I won't harm anyone."

"It's even more important to prevent others from hurting you. I know you are a smart girl, but sometimes you don't need to be smart. It's good to know in your heart that you are confused."

Yong Wei nodded, but seemed to understand.In fact, it's useless even if she understands it. Jiang Xiyuan deeply feels that this kind of thing depends on character and talent, and it's often not planning but instinct.

But he was really worried, seriously, he was a little scared.He was afraid that this beautiful little girl like a flower would one day be crushed into mud by the cold palace, but he couldn't do anything.

"Brother, will you help me if something happens? Are you sure?" Yong Wei asked him.

"of course."

Yong Wei laughed, and forgot the heaviness just now.Opening the dowry box with great interest, she showed Jiang Xiyuan her newly-wrapped dowry jewelry. Jiang Xiyuan was not interested, but he was able to say something, which made Yongwei very happy.

Jiang Xiyuan's mouth was dry, and he took a sip of the fruit tea. The sweetness made him feel tired, so he put it down again, "The girl who is about to get married is so happy, my mother will probably be sad when she sees it."

"Then get married quickly, and mother will forget about this sadness."

"Smelly girl, it's your turn to talk about this matter."

"Bengong orders you to marry me a sister-in-law as soon as possible." Yong Wei put up her posture, and instantly matured a lot from her demeanor to her temperament.Jiang Xiyuan looked at her and smiled, but didn't speak.

"How is it?" Yong Wei lowered her body and asked him how her posture was.

"Yongwei..." Jiang Xiyuan put away his teasing expression, "I won't say what I told you before, you choose the path yourself, and you have to figure out how to go. You will be the queen soon, and I will serve you as my vassal. But whoever you are you are my sister. Remember?"

Yong Wei was saddened by what he said, her eyes filled with water, she nodded gently and leaned on Jiang Xiyuan's shoulder, "I know, brother, you will always be my brother."

"Just remember it. So leave me alone." Jiang Xiyuan said lightly.

Yong Wei was furious.She thought Jiang Xiyuan was saying goodbye to her, but she didn't expect that he was waiting for her here.She reached out to grab Jiang Xiyuan, but Jiang Xiyuan ran away before her.

On the way back to Fuya, Jiang Xiyuan bought a set of tea sets from a porcelain shop when he passed by. The blue and white ones were very delicate.He carried it in his hand, and was going to use this as a breakthrough point to talk to Xia Chu.

He can take the initiative to reconcile, but he still has deep doubts about the thoughts of that Mr. Huang.He wasn't jealous either.Well, he is still a little jealous, but he has no right to be jealous.

The truth is, even if Mr. Huang likes Xia Chu as much as he does, there's no need to hide his name and family history.Chu Xia is not a young lady.What is he afraid of?What are you afraid of?

Jiang Xiyuan recalled that unsightly painting, and always felt that there was a strange sense of familiarity in that painting.As he was walking, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, feeling that something was wrong.

where is wrong?

Jiang Xiyuan slightly narrowed his eyes and looked up at the sky.He remembered very clearly that on the night Yu Wenping had an accident, Xia Chu told him about her life experience. She said that she had an older brother.He believed that he remembered correctly, because Xia Chu also said that he was like his brother.

There are four people in the painting, two adults, the other two, one is Xia Chu, and there is a little girl next to him.So, who is the brother here?
Standing in the middle of the road, Jiang Xiyuan felt his face was burning hot. He didn't know whether it was from the scorching sun or from the surge of Qi and blood.Even though I kept telling myself to calm down, and then calm down, my heart still couldn't stop beating wildly.

After a while, Jiang Xiyuan seemed to wake up suddenly, put the tea set in his hand on the nearby stall selling Xuehualuo, turned around and ran towards Xia Chu's house.

He couldn't wait a moment, he had to go and see!

Running all the way to the door of Xia Chu's house, Jiang Xiyuan was already drenched in sweat and his forehead was shining brightly. He had never been so disrespectful, but now he didn't care about it at all.

There is a lock on the courtyard door, proving that Chu Xia is not there.Jiang Xiyuan looked to both sides, lifted himself up and stepped on the wall to borrow strength, put his hand on the top of the wall and gently supported it, turned over and entered the yard.

Standing at the base of the wall, he calmed down and walked in lightly.The yard was as quiet as when he left last night.The fish in the fish tank flipped over the water surface and made a popping sound, which startled Jiang Xiyuan.

This is really a guilty conscience.

He walked to the door of the room, pressed his hand on the doorknob for a moment, and then carefully opened the door.The painting was pasted on the wall. Jiang Xiyuan walked slowly to the painting. For a moment, the air in the room seemed to freeze. He could only hear the sound of his own breathing and the pounding heartbeat.

Four people, Xia Chu's parents, and... two Xia Chu.

A smile gradually appeared on the corner of Jiang Xiyuan's mouth, the smile deepened, and finally he sneered.He put his fist to his lips and watched intently.

At this moment, he really wanted to shout out, laughing, but also a little bit like crying.
