The more you wear your sister

Chapter 68 Why Fire Again?

Not long after I reconciled with Chu Feng, Liu Jinqing came to visit me.

"Jinqing, you are too polite, just come, what gift do you bring?" I looked at the big and small bags in his hand, and felt embarrassed.

Liu Jinqing smiled softly at me: "Ever since you bid farewell that day, brother Yu has been thinking about it all the time, and has always wanted to find an opportunity to come and apologize for grandma's reckless behavior. I heard that General Chu is in poor health recently, and I'm very sorry. I brought some nourishing and nourishing medicines, hoping to be useful to General Chu."

It turned out that they came here to seek reconciliation on behalf of the Liu family. No wonder they even prepared a gift for Chu Feng, a rival in love.

"Thank you Brother Liu for your kindness." Chu Feng not only accepted Liu Jinqing's gift with a hearty smile, but also handed it to the servant next to him and said, "Take it to stew, remember to carefully test for poison."

Liu Jinqing's originally gentle face immediately turned ugly, and Chu Feng deliberately explained to him: "Brother Liu, don't be offended, after all, this is not the first time we have been poisoned by someone, and we must be careful in everything."

Well, Chu Feng is simply the best candidate for mt, just a few short sentences pulled the hatred to ten feet, not only expressing "I am afraid that you are a bad-hearted villain who will poison me", but also implying that "Don't forget that your father has already poisoned us." By the way, he blocked Liu Jinqing there confidently and couldn't get angry.

"Chu Feng!" I tugged on Chu Feng's sleeve, implying that he should not be so mean to Liu Jinqing.

Although I quickly asked people to serve tea and snacks, and tried to make a few jokes to ease the atmosphere, Liu Jinqing couldn't help it. He looked at Chu Feng provocatively, and said indifferently: "It must be unnecessary, see General Chu's complexion seems to have almost recovered. To be able to recover so quickly, General Chu is truly auspicious."

Wait, this tone is familiar with the smell of gunpowder... Liu Jinqing, are you implying that Chu Feng has ulterior motives and is not pretending to be sick?

Facing this malice that even I can feel, Chu Feng just smiled lightly, turned his head to look at me, his eyes were so greasy that dripping honey, his tone was so gentle that it made me feel goosebumps all over my body Geda: "Little Tiger is so concerned about my safety, when he heard that I was sick, he ran back to take care of me and take good care of me. I am very happy, and my body will recover soon."

Hey, hey, isn't the name "Little Tiger" used in private when it's just the two of us?What are you trying to do by suddenly calling out your private nickname? !Xiu Enai doesn't wear such a thing!Haven't you heard that Xiu Enai dies quickly?

Sure enough, Liu Jinqing also felt strange: "Why do you call Ziqing a little tiger?"

Chu Feng smiled lightly: "Brother Liu doesn't know something. He likes to bite people when he is excited. He often bites my shoulders and arms until there are tooth marks on my shoulders and arms, just like a little tiger with teeth and claws."

Chu Feng's show of affection was too ruthless, Liu Jinqing really showed embarrassment and anger on his face, and my face was already swollen into a pig's liver, and I slapped the table in shame and indignation: "Chu Feng!"

"Okay, okay...don't be angry." Chu Feng seemed to be afraid that my hand would hurt, he grabbed my palm and held it in his palm and said, "It's a big deal, I'll bite as you like tonight."

I was about to be numb to death by his abnormal behavior, and Liu Jinqing couldn't help it, and said something insincerely: "Since the two of you have reconciled as before, Brother Yu is relieved, so I will leave, Ziqing changed his mind." Come to Brother Yu’s Mansion when you have time someday.”

I blushed and wanted to stay, but the deeply shocked Liu Jinqing had already fled away.

"Brother Liu, walk slowly." Chu Feng said to his back with a victorious smile.

I strode angrily down the corridor, Chu Feng chased up from behind and coaxed me: "Are you really angry?"

Actually, I'm not very angry, I just feel that Chu Feng's behavior is very naive. Although I know that he doesn't want me to have more contact with Liu Jinqing in public or private, but today's behavior is just like a middle school student who is jealous.

"Tell me the truth, do you really hate him? There are quite a few people who are hostile to us, but I don't think you hate him like this." I stopped and turned to ask Chu Feng.

"Yes." Chu Feng answered me without hesitation, "I just can't understand him like that. He has such unique conditions, but he doesn't do anything serious. He always knows that romantic poems are wrong. Even you Such a piece of fat was delivered to the door in person, and he didn't know how to take advantage of this opportunity. If I were him, if... Forget it, it's meaningless to talk about it. What do you want to eat at noon? In the morning, the guards caught some birds and we grilled them Come and eat, okay?"

"Whatever." I said perfunctorily.

Although Chu Feng only spoke half of what he said, I vaguely understand his psychology.Chu Feng probably saw his shadow in Liu Jinqing. He is also the son of the prime minister, and he is also blessed. One has to rely on himself for everything after encountering a catastrophe. Now he only hates his low status, but the other has great resources. Knowing how to use it, living a decadent life.So when Chu Feng saw him, it was like seeing another self who hadn't suffered. Of course, he was very envious and jealous, wishing to seize every opportunity to attack this dead love rival.

However, this facial paralysis occasionally makes me feel so cute...

Anyway, we have reconciled, and we should continue to work on the business that has been delayed.

It was rare for me to have such a little enthusiasm for work, so I took the initiative to ask Chu Feng: "Where should we start investigating the reactionary nursery rhymes?"

"You just remembered." Chu Feng said, "You don't need to worry about this matter."

"...What do you mean?" Why do I feel that it sounds like "you have been fired"?

Chu Feng shook his head and smiled helplessly: "Did you think that Jiao Dian and Lai Fu are both foodies? They have already cooperated with the secret imperial envoys to find out about the nursery rhymes, and the memorials have already been sent to the capital. I have already taken care of all other troubles, big and small, for you. Now we have to build an altar in an open area of ​​the city before the fifth day of May. At that time, you just need to listen to Lai Fu’s arrangement and open the altar. That's it."

...I didn't expect this errand to be so easy. I really have to thank the emperor and Yang Jue who are far away in the capital. It feels great to have such a group of officials under my command.

So I ate, slept and played, and waited for the fifth day of May with nothing to do.

Ancient people attached great importance to sacrifices, so this time the altar was set up much more gorgeously than the temporary stage last time.Moreover, Jiao Dian had started building momentum half a month ago, and now not only people in Hangzhou, but people from all over the world are probably rushing to join in this rare excitement.

The crowd of onlookers was bustling, three circles inside and three circles around the altar. I sat in a sedan chair wearing a Taoist robe and a mask and waited for the sacrifice to begin. We chatted together.

Seeing that the time was almost up, I found a plume of smoke rising from the roof of a nearby house a few hundred meters away.

Just wondering, I heard someone beating a gong and shouting loudly: "It's on fire! Come and put out the fire!"

...Why fire again?

...why do I say "again"?

The originally crowded crowd suddenly became chaotic. Although the guards tried to maintain order on the scene, they were quickly overwhelmed by the flow of people.

Fortunately, the population in ancient times was small. Even if people nearby came to watch the excitement, the crowd did not appear particularly crowded. Under such chaos, at least no large-scale stampede accidents occurred.

Some people fled, and others who were physically strong and more Lei Feng spirit went to help put out the fire, but the fire burned very quickly, maybe because most houses in ancient times were made of wood, or maybe it was simply tampered with.

From what I can also see, there are already flames soaring into the sky and black smoke billowing in the distance. It seems that today's sacrifice is definitely over.It's a good time to not catch fire, but it happens at this time. It seems that there are ten times that someone is deliberately trying to make things difficult for me.

But no matter what, the safety of the lives and property of the people is still the first. I said to Chu Feng: "Let the guards also go to fight the fire."

Chu Feng had no objection, but said: "It is likely that someone did this on purpose. Now that it is in such a mess, you should be careful not to be taken advantage of by the bad guys. Why don't you hide yourself?"

I happened to be thinking the same way: "Then I'll look around, maybe I can find something."

After saying that, I disappeared from the sedan chair in front of my entourage and some onlookers.

Lai Fu already packed my clothes with a face full of surprises. Anyway, my master is already safe, and Chu Feng didn't delay, and personally brought the guards to the fire scene.

I floated in the air and looked down at the entire fire scene. The organized and disciplined hundreds of guards were indeed a new force in fighting the fire, and immediately replaced the chaotic civilians.Chu Feng commanded the soldiers and civilians at the scene in an orderly manner, and quickly brought the fire under control.

Because of the angle of view, I quickly discovered some clues. In a remote alleyway near the fire scene, several figures sneaked away.

I took a closer look and saw that they were all carrying the same cloth bag on their backs, which should be light crossbows.

Then I understood, presumably Chu Feng's defense was too strict, these people came up with such an evil plot to set fire to divert attention, and then sneak up to the altar in the chaos, and shoot me to death with arrows, who knew that I neither Silly waited in place and didn't go back home, but disappeared from the scene directly.

Now that these killers have lost their target, and the fire has been brought under control, if their actions fail, they will definitely go back to their employers or leaders to report back. Wait for me to follow up and see who is so persistent in killing them I'm done.

After this trip, it wasn't until it was dark that I was so hungry that my hands and feet went weak, and I fluttered back to the Xingyuan where I lived.

Chu Feng and others have already closed the team and announced that the sacrifice will be held on another day. At this moment, he is already waiting around in my room.

"Why did you come back so late?" As soon as I appeared, Chu Feng came forward, took a coat and put it on me, and then opened the food box next to me.

"They are so good at grinding, it's not easy to find out the news." I said vaguely while wolfing down my food.

"What did you find out?" Chu Feng asked eagerly after I ate a bowl of noodles in one go.
