It was evening and there was not enough light in the room, so Tang Ji had to tiptoe towards the bed, fearing that he would bump into something or make any noise.
Jiang Ran's room is very tidy, with a faint fragrance in the air. The furniture is placed in a fixed position, the bed is folded neatly, and even the rouge and gouache on the dressing table are placed in an orderly manner.
Tang Ji first rummaged in the display window next to the closet. After finding no baggage, he gently opened the closet door. The next second, his face turned red. He looked at the various colored bellybands in front of him and almost spit out nosebleeds. He whispered
He murmured: "Jiang Ran has such a gentle personality, so white and pink are suitable for her."
He shook his head and continued to search, but still found nothing.
Finally, his eyes were fixed on the pale pink bed to avoid soiling the bed. He put one hand on the bed cabinet and was about to touch under the pillow with the other hand, but the sound of pushing the door behind him came directly.
He was so frightened that he fell on the bed.
"I caught you little thief!" Jiu'er put his hands on his hips and held his head high proudly.
Jiang Ran looked indifferent, looked forward, and said: "Jiu'er, go out first."
Seeing that she was very serious, Jiu'er thought that the young lady was angry and wanted to comfort her, but she swallowed her words as soon as they reached her lips. She glanced at Tang Ji and walked out of the house with her head turned three times.
After the door closed, Jiang Ran went straight to the dressing table, opened the lower cabinet, and took out the blue-gray bundle: "What exactly did you find? Why did you hide it from me?"
Tang Ji got up from the bed and patted his forehead. It seemed that he couldn't hide it from her after all. He coughed lightly and moved to the candlestick to light the candle. The whole room suddenly lit up. He took the yellowed paper from his sleeve.
And he took out an excerpt and handed it over.
Jiang Ran reached out and took it, opened the paper and started browsing.
After a moment, her eyes were a little dazed, and she asked softly: "Is the incident recorded on this related to my life experience?"
"Yeah." Tang Ji nodded slightly and explained: "That day in the building, I saw you reacting so badly when you heard from Yang's mother that he had picked it up. I was afraid that you would think wildly after knowing it, so I wanted to investigate clearly.
I’ll tell you again, but you are so smart that you still saw the clues.”
Jiang Ran glanced at him and handed over the bundle in his hand: "You are so glib, so you asked me to borrow these gadgets to see if there are any other secret messages?"
Tang Ji took the bundle, poured out all the other toys, and dismantled them one by one with her consent.
Sure enough, some of the toys also had letter papers hidden inside them.
The two finally set their sights on the red and white rattle. This rattle was made of leather. The only way to open it was to directly cut open its outer skin, which also meant that it would lose its function.
Sensing Tang Ji's hesitant look, Jiang Ran took a breath and said softly: "I'm ashamed to say that I can't remember anything before the age of six in my mind. It's as if I've been in Yuexian Tower all my life."
At first, so, rather than this rattle, I want to know who I am more. Besides, since the person who left me these things hid the secret message in it, he hopes that one day I will find it."
Even so, Tang Ji could still see her reluctance and raised his hand to touch her head: "I will buy it for you from now on!"
Hearing this, Jiang Ran chuckled and took his hand away: "I'm not a child anymore, please open it quickly."
Soon, Tang Ji used a knife to cut open the outer skin of the rattle, and three pieces of letter paper fell out directly from the inside. Together with the previous ones, there were six pieces in total.
The two of them arranged the six pieces of stationery in order according to their content, and then started browsing.
[Jiang Zhan, courtesy name Hanyuan, a native of Shuozhou, was born in the fourth year of Yong'an in Ningli. He joined the army in the nineteenth year of Yong'an, pacified the northwest and suppressed the feudal rebellion. In the fifth year of Dingwu, he was granted the title of "General of the Protector of the Country". In the ninth year of Dingwu, he moved to the right to control the country.
General, in the same year he was awarded the title of Champion;
In the thirteenth year of Dingwu, King Beicheng rebelled. The late emperor ordered Jiang Zhan to go to the northwest with 50,000 forbidden troops.
In July, Jiang Zhan temporarily defected and led his troops to join King Beicheng. A great chaos broke out in the northwest. The late emperor was furious and sent 300,000 troops to suppress it. King Beicheng, Jiang Zhan and other masterminds were executed on the spot.
However, Jiang Zhan was dedicated to serving his country and would never rebel.
According to investigations, Lieutenant General Liang Jian left the camp for three hours on the pretext of patrolling on the day before the rebellion. Commander Jiang Zhan did not show up on the day of the rebellion. All his trusted generals were beheaded and there was no way to collect evidence. However, Liang Jian allowed collusion with the rebels.
The army was suspicious of him, and after the incident, all the soldiers who surrendered their weapons were framed and killed, and no one survived.
Secondly, Jiang Zhan had no contact with the King of Liao on weekdays, and the correspondence was even more secretive. However, the original letters were destroyed and there was no way to obtain evidence.
In the third case, the late emperor's imperial edict stated that only King Beicheng should be beheaded. Jiang Zhan was escorted back to the capital, but the supervisor disobeyed the imperial edict and rushed to execute him.
All the above are clues to this matter. I know that I am not going to die soon, so I left a secret message and hid it among my little girl's playthings. I hope that one day, my husband's injustice will be vindicated.
The last work of his wife Qin Su.]
little girl...
Tang Ji stared at Jiang Ran with wide eyes. Now things were even more troublesome. He originally thought that Jiang Ran was some distant relative of Jiang Zhan, but he didn't expect that they were father and daughter.
Jiang Ran looked at the contents revealed on the blurry letter in despair. She covered her chest with her jade hands and felt difficulty breathing. Two lines of clear tears fell from her beautiful crystal eyes: "Dad, mother..."
In an instant, a certain memory in her mind began to revive, and the pain quickly came over her. She raised her hands to cover her head.
Seeing this, Tang Ji hugged her into his arms, put his chin on her head, and patted her back: "Of course, you still have me, you still have me!"
Jiang Ran struggled to remember, but still couldn't remember anything. Tears gathered into a river and soon stained Tang Ji's clothes. She raised her hand and gently tapped his chest, sobbing: "Why? Why do I think about everything?
Can’t get up? Why is Daddy suffering an unfair injustice? What should I do?”
Tang Ji didn't answer, he held her tightly in his arms and let her vent her emotions.
After an unknown amount of time, the girl in her arms calmed down, her eyes became red, and there was a trace of tears on her cheeks.
Tang Ji put his hands around her slender waist, lowered his head and looked at her, and said softly: "Leave it to me and I'll check it, okay?"
Jiang Ran's body trembled a little and he shook his head: "No, I can't implicate you. I am the daughter of a traitor. If someone finds out, you will also be implicated. There is also wine, and I will leave it to you.
Yeah, I...uh uh uh!"
Before she could finish her words, her lips were blocked by Tang Ji's, and she hit his shoulders hard, trying to retreat, but her body was locked tightly by him and she couldn't move at all.
Tang Ji's kisses were very aggressive and he soon captured Jiang Ran.
After a long time, their lips parted, and he held her in his arms again: "Have you forgotten? I promised to help you redeem your life before, and I did it. Now the letter clearly states that my father-in-law was framed, and something fishy happened in the rebellion.
How can you, a weak woman, check it out? Can you fight the mastermind? So, leave it to me, but it may take a long time."
Jiang Ran didn't reply. She just felt that it was very safe to lie on his chest. After a long time, she nodded and hugged him tightly: "But you must also protect yourself."
"Don't worry!" Tang Ji replied softly.
Just kidding, he is the protagonist. If he dies, the bad author will also be in trouble.
It was completely dark outside. The two of them put away a few secret messages, adjusted their emotions, and then walked out the door.
Jiu'er, who was leaning on the pillar outside the door, dozed off like a chicken pecking at rice. Looking at Jiang Ran's red and swollen lips, he suddenly lost all sleep, and stretched out his fingers: "You, you..."
Tang Ji and Jiang Ran looked at each other. What they said in the room just now was destined to become a secret between them. Without thinking about it, he held her hand and knocked the little girl on the head again: "Let's go, let's have dinner."
, why do you two take a bath before eating!"
"Hmph, taking a bath before eating can help you lose weight. Mr. Tang doesn't know anything!" Jiu'er rubbed his head and looked at Tang Ji angrily, secretly kissing the lady and not letting her see it. Mr. Tang is indeed a big hooligan!
