Jiang Zhinan slept until noon.

    She is used to running around outside these two days, and the tension in her heart has not been completely relaxed. When she woke up, she thought she was still sleeping outside, and quickly opened her eyes to want to See if you have been caught by officers and soldiers.

    Fortunately, the moment she opened her eyes, the first thing she saw was Aning's smiling face.

      With Aning here, you don't have to be afraid, Miss, I will definitely protect you."

    As soon as this sentence came out, it really made Jiang Zhinan feel at ease.

     

    "Yeah." After a while, she nodded and agreed softly.

     

    "You don't need to call me miss anymore." Jiang Zhinan stared at her back and muttered, "I'm no longer a lady now, just an ordinary person."

    Although she has been suppressing her emotions when she said this, An Ning still heard a hint of helplessness and sadness.

     

    Aning sighed, poured the hot water that Xiao Er had just sent into the copper basin, and then took it back to Jiang Zhinan and sat down, staring at her face.

    Jiang Zhinan didn't know what she was going to do, so she just kept staring at her, the two of them stared at each other for a while.

    "You're safe." After a while, Aning opened his lips and gently spit out these two words, "Then I'll call you like this, okay?"

    Jiang Zhinan saw a ray of light from the bottom of her eyes.

    It's just two simple words, but from Aning's mouth, it sounds extraordinarily lingering and warm.

    Jiang Zhinan felt that his heartbeat suddenly slowed for half a beat, and his breathing stopped unconsciously.

    For some reason, she was a little moved.

    This child really likes her, even if it is an expression, an action, or a simple sentence.

    If she misses her, Jiang Zhinan feels that she may never find someone as good to her in her life.

    To live in this world, you must know how to cherish it. This is what Jiang Zhinan understood long ago.

    Thinking like this, she lowered her head and was silent for a while, and finally raised her hand slightly, holding Aning's wrist nervously.

    "Okay." Then she said, a slight smile gradually formed on her lips.

    Aning was dazzled by her smile, and even the pot in her hand was almost unsteady.

    When she came back this time, she thought that the young lady would blame her, hate her, and even reluctant to recognize her.

    Actually, Aning has already tried several endings in her heart. She is so humble, so humble that she never thought that the young lady might really accept her.

    "It's great." As she said this, her nose suddenly became sour, and tears also fell unconsciously at this moment, dripping on Jiang Zhinan's cheeks. on hand.

    Jiang Zhinan couldn't help but feel a little moved when she saw her appearance, but she was not very good at expressing herself, so she just patted her wrist lightly.

    As she did to Aning who had just come to her many years ago, every move was very gentle.

    …

    After washing, Aning re-combed Jiang Zhinan's hair.

    I haven't seen each other for three years, Jiang Zhinan's hair is much longer than before, because she has been pampered on weekdays, so the maintenance is natural, the hair feels good to the touch and extremely soft .

     

    Jiang Zhinan was tickled by her kiss, and somehow suddenly remembered what happened last night, and hurriedly coughed and wanted to say something else to attract her attention.

    "Aning." She said this, wanting to ask how Aning has been in the past three years, "Tell me about what happened after you and I parted."

    "Yeah." An Ning nodded, brushing her hair and telling her the whole story.

    From faking her death, to changing her identity to take the exam, to how she gained the emperor's trust over the years and how she climbed up.

    Jiang Zhinan sat in the chair and listened without saying a word. Although he was very happy that Aning had made a lot of achievements, his brows were still wrinkled involuntarily.

    Because from her narration, Jiang Zhinan heard a person who should not have appeared.

      He never cared.

    But for some reason, now his presence has suddenly become stronger.

    If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, Jiang Zhinan thought for a moment, and finally asked the system in his heart, wanting to know what the current situation is.

    The system just said: "Do you know the butterfly effect?"

    "The power of a butterfly flapping its wings may change the course of a world," she said, "not to mention your presence."

    "You mean that because of my appearance, the world has changed a lot, and then there have been many accidents that should not have occurred." Jiang Zhinan analyzed her words bit by bit, " And Jiang Chengxuan was the accident?"

    "I can't tell you that." The system shook its head, "You have to work hard to explore it yourself."

    "Understood." Jiang Zhinan agreed, and was silent for a while without speaking.

    Seeing that she was silent, An Ning naturally guessed what she was thinking, and her eyes darkened immediately.

    "Yu An doesn't need to care about these things." After a while, she said, turned her head and kissed Jiang Zhinan's lips a few times, trying to reassure her, "I'll just check it out. ."

    "I'm sure I'll get to the bottom of this."

    "Well." Jiang Zhinan nodded in response, knowing that he was still unable to protect himself, and had no energy to do other things, so he could only leave this matter to Aning.

    Aning smiled, raised her hand and gently helped her organize her clothes.

    At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and it was the second shopkeeper who came to deliver lunch.

    "Put it at the door first." Aning said in a serious voice, not as gentle as when he was with Jiang Zhinan, "I'll pick it up later."

     

    After he left, An Ning stepped forward to open the door and bent over the food placed at the door.

    The food made by this inn is very fragrant. Jiang Zhinan didn't feel hungry at first, but when he smelled the fragrance, his stomach suddenly growled.

   

    Jiang Zhinan's wandering for the past few days has even been a problem to fill his stomach, let alone what to eat. Now that he saw these dishes, he immediately swallowed his saliva.

    Aning handed her the chopsticks and softly told her to try it quickly.

    "Aren't you together?" Jiang Zhinan was eager to try with his chopsticks.

    "No." Aning smiled, reached out and poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her, "I ate late in the morning, and I'm not hungry yet, Yu'an, eat it first, I'll eat it later It's fine."

    "Then I'll be welcome." Jiang Zhinan nodded in response, without saying anything else, he directly took a piece of braised pork and put it in his mouth, chewing it a few times with a very happy expression.

    The meat is delicious, full of color and flavor, as if it melts in your mouth.

    Jiang Zhinan was busy eating meat, so he forgot to ask Aning what he wanted to eat for a while.

    In just a few moments, these side dishes are all gone.

    Jiang Zhinan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that his body and mind were greatly satisfied, and his mood improved a lot.

    Aning looked at her with a smile, picked up the handkerchief on the table and gently wiped her mouth.

    "Are you full?" she asked.

    "I'm full." Jiang Zhinan nodded, raised his lips and smiled at her, looking very tight.

     

    "What's the matter?" Jiang Zhinan didn't react at first, thinking that Aning had found something new to give her.

    When Aning stood up and stepped forward to hug her, Jiang Zhinan suddenly felt a dangerous aura.

    "Is it difficult for you to..." Jiang Zhinan was dumbfounded.

    "I haven't seen Miss for so long." Aning whispered in her ear with a coquettish tone, "How can it be done once."

    Jiang Zhinan said that you only came here once yesterday, but you are still shy and continue to ask for it today.

    But she didn't say those words, she just spit out a few words and died halfway, because Aning suddenly lowered her head and bit her neck.

    "It hurts..." Jiang Zhinan was bitten by her, and she immediately held her breath, not daring to move.

    How come it bites.

    "Will you let me go?" Jiang Zhinan let out a few drops of physiological tears in pain, and whispered, wanting to discuss with Aning.

    "Not good." Aning shook his head and said that the person who has never rejected Jiang Zhinan's request was very firm in this matter.

    When Jiang Zhinan heard her answer, she felt a little helpless.

    "Need medicine..." The system asked.

    "Yes." Jiang Zhinan hurriedly answered before she could finish speaking.

     

    Originally, Jiang Zhinan felt that it was a little bad, but An Ning dragged her back and forth again now, she was really afraid that she would have to lie down for ten days and a half months.

    "Thanks for your hard work." The system sighed, with a little sympathy in his tone.

    If Jiang Zhinan didn't pick her up, he couldn't care about anything else.

    …

    This time, An Ning directly tossed Jiang Zhinan into the evening.

      She is fooling around.

    "Yu An." An Ning whispered her name in her ear, her tone full of nostalgia and fascination, "I'll take you back to my house tonight, okay?"

    "En." Jiang Zhinan responded in a daze, two slender hands tightly wrapping around Aning's neck.

    Aning leaned over and kissed her on the lips, and asked again after a while, "Let's get married when we go back, I've been looking forward to this day for a long time."

    "En." Jiang Zhinan nodded, his brain was dizzy at the moment, and he couldn't think too much for a while, "As long as you don't always toss me..."

     

    Jiang Zhinan also knew that what she said was just coping, so she just kept her mouth shut, thinking that it would save some effort.

    But it's still the same as last night, just didn't stick to the end.

     

    An Ning tucked the quilt for Jiang Zhinan, watched her fall asleep, then stood up again, packed her clothes, opened the door, and walked out.

    "Master." The men standing at the door saluted her, "The sedan chair is ready, when do you think you will take the lady away?"

    "Wait a little later." Aning said, raising his head to look at the bright moon outside through the window, and asked again after a while, "Have you finished the investigation? ?"

    "I have already inquired." The subordinate said, "One of the beggars on the street seems to know Jiang Chengxuan's whereabouts, saying that seven days ago, before the Jiang residence was raided, he had already Leave first."

     

     But there was a hint of other meaning in that smile.

    If it is said that the matter of the Jiang family has nothing to do with him, it is truly unconvincing.

    From a long time ago, when Aning learned to play chess with him, he could feel that this person is not simple at all, his chess path is unpredictable, and every move is designing traps , waiting for someone to fall.

    Anyone who can play this kind of chess, An Ning does not believe that he is willing to keep quiet like this.

    But he was just waiting for an opportunity. As for the reason for doing this, I am afraid that only he knows.

    "It's really sick." Aning clicked his tongue and cursed in a low voice.

    "By the way, have you paid the beggar's hush money?" After a long silence, she asked again.

    "Yes." The subordinate replied, "I also told him not to tell others about this."

    "Yeah." Aning nodded, then turned around, opened the door again, and walked into the room, "Leave the two of you here."

    "I think Sun Shangshu will find out here soon." She said, undercurrents surging in her eyes, "Help me keep an eye on him."

    "Understood."

    "Also." Aning said, "Take care of those beggars too, if they leak out the fact that they have seen me, they can only keep their mouths shut forever. ."

    After all, only the dead can keep a secret, right?

    A Ning is actually reluctant to kill people. The experience and what she has seen and heard over the past few years have made her grow a lot, and she has gradually believed in what it means to be dependent on misfortune and good fortune.

     

    Aning is not afraid, but she is afraid that Jiang Zhinan will suffer misfortune with her.

    She didn't want her to suffer any harm, not even a little.

    So this matter must be resolved as soon as possible.

    Aning frowned as he thought so.

    …

    After Sun Jin called someone to investigate Aning, he really found some incredible clues.

    He specifically asked the person who prepared the candidates before, and got Ying Wanyan's information from him.

    The information shows that she was born in an ordinary civilian family and lived in a very remote small village. She had been farming with her parents to make a living.

    The information is quite complete, even the parents' names are written.

    Sun Jin immediately asked people to prepare a carriage and rushed to the village non-stop, holding the villagers and asking them if they knew of a person named Ying Wanyan.

    "I don't know." "I don't know." "I haven't heard of it."

    No matter how many people he asked, he still got the same result.

    "Then have you heard of these two people?" Seeing that the search was fruitless, Sun Jin immediately changed direction and began to ask her parents' names.

    This time I finally got the answer. Some villagers told him that there were really two people in the village.

    But they both fell ill and died a long time ago. The two died suddenly, and they didn't have a child or a daughter. Thanks to the help of the villagers, they were buried in the back up the mountain.

    "Are you their old friend?" the villager asked, "Do you want me to take you to say hello?"

    "No..." Sun Jin originally wanted to refuse. After all, the situation was urgent, and there were still too many questions to be solved, waiting for him to deal with it one by one.

     

    Thinking like this, Sun Jin finally followed the villagers up the mountain to worship the two people.

    He was very upset at the moment. He had already exhausted his mind to thoroughly investigate Jiang Chengxuan and Jiang Yu'an, but at this time, he suddenly brought up a story about his friend Ying Wanyan matter.

    No, maybe she can't be called Ying Wanyan, after all, this identity is fake, everything about her is fake.

    Should...call her Aning?

    Sun Jin frowned slightly.

     

      Chance.

    But…

    Sun Jin sighed, and sure enough, he still couldn't help himself.

     

    There was a cool breeze blowing on the mountain, and it was so strong that it even blew off the hat that Sun Jin was wearing on his head.

    Sun Jin ran quickly to pick up the hat, but still couldn't keep up with the speed of its rolling, and watched it fall down the mountain.

    "It's just a hat." Seeing this scene, the fellow villagers couldn't help but laugh, "What do you care about?"

    "What did you say?" Sun Jin couldn't help being stunned when he heard what he said, then turned his head and asked him sharply.

    The villager was taken aback by him, but he honestly repeated the words just now to him.

     

    That's right, isn't it just a black gauze hat on the head, and it's nothing compared to my friends.

    Everything has a reason, Aning must have her troubles in doing this.

    He should choose to trust his friend.

    Thinking of this, Sun Jin stepped forward and bowed to the two stone monuments on the mountain, and then quickly walked down the mountain, the pace was obviously much easier than when he came.

    "You seem to be in a good mood." The accompanying subordinates asked him.

    "Well." Sun Jin nodded, with a smile in his eyes, "It's just that I suddenly figured out something that I haven't been able to figure out lately."

    "Congratulations, sir." His subordinates cupped his hands to him, happy for him, "Then why don't you go back to Fuzhong to celebrate..."

    "No need." Before he could finish speaking, Sun Jin shook his head and rejected his proposal, "Continue to investigate, and now go back to the place where Prefect Jiang lived."

    Naturally, it is necessary to check, but this time it is not to complete the task.

    Just to find out whether Aning has anything to hide, and whether she has anything to do with the Jiang family.

    …

     

    Jiang Zhinan was still asleep at this time, Aning didn't have the heart to wake her up, she just wrapped her tightly in a blanket and hugged her downstairs, and then moved gently on the on the carriage.

    However, Jiang Zhinan's sleep quality has always been poor, and now he still wakes up leisurely.

    "Where are we going?" She asked softly, because she just woke up, her voice sounded milky and very cute.

    "Go home." Aning smiled in response to her words, lowered her head and kissed her cheek gently.

    Jiang Zhinan leaned closer to her, rested his head on Aning's shoulder, and leaned his body in her arms.

    "Be careful." Then she said, "Don't get caught."

    "Got it." An Ning nodded in agreement, reached out and patted her shoulder, full of pampering in her movements, "Will you sleep again?"

    "Okay." Jiang Zhinan gently closed his eyes and continued to see Duke Zhou.

    The temperature at night was too cold. Although Jiang Zhinan was wrapped in a blanket, Aning was still afraid of her cold, so he tightened his arms in an attempt to hold her tighter.

      live her.

    So the way to bring Jiang Zhinan out was relatively smooth. The carriage started to drive towards Aning's house.

    In order to prevent more people from noticing him, Aning still told his subordinates to take the small road, so naturally he and Sun Jin who came from the main road just missed it.

    Two carriages, one south and one north, run in opposite directions.

    …

    I had no dreams all night, and when Jiang Zhinan woke up the next day, he found himself lying on the bed again.

    Aning was also beside her. It was estimated that she had been tired all night before falling asleep. Her eyes were obviously blue, and she looked haggard.

    Jiang Zhinan was afraid that he would wake her up, so he held his breath and carefully looked at the person in front of him with his eyes open.

    To say that Aning has really grown up a lot, although there is still a shadow in his eyebrows, but the outline is more profound, and the trembling demeanor before has long since disappeared. There is only tenacity and determination.

    And the tenderness that will only be revealed when facing Jiang Zhinan.

    Jiang Zhinan looked at her, and unconsciously raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and sighed in his heart that time flies really fast.

    But before she could think about anything, An Ning who was still sleeping suddenly came over and kissed her on the forehead.

    "Are you awake?" Jiang Zhinan was startled.

    "Well." Aning nodded, and the corners of his lips raised slightly, "Miss looked at me with too hot eyes, how could I be embarrassed to continue to sleep again."

    Jiang Zhinan: "…is there?"

    "There are some." Aning deliberately teased her, not to mention that his sleep quality is not good. He is a master who can wake up with a little noise.

    "Do you want to sleep a little longer?" Jiang Zhinan also knew she was talking nonsense, so she didn't answer her at all, "It's still early."

    "No." Aning shook his head, then sat up, "There is still something to do, I have to go to work for a while."

    "Do you want me to be with you?" Jiang Zhinan asked, wanting to join her.

    "Yu'an just stay." An Ning reached out to stop her, not planning to ask her to follow, "Lie in bed and rest, I'll be back soon."

    "That's good." Seeing that she didn't want to bring her, Jiang Zhinan didn't force it, just nodded and softly agreed.

    Aning smiled, then helped her tuck the quilt, and after washing, she walked out the door quickly.

    Jiang Zhinan stared at her back for a long time, until she could no longer see her, then she finally took her eyes back, and her heart gradually filled with weakness.

    I can't do anything, I can only watch An Ning take the risk, it's really really sad.

    The system comforted her in her mind, saying that it is now a last resort, and it will be fine after this period of time, don't think too much.

    "Yes." Jiang Zhinan nodded in response.

    You need to cheer up.

    …

      Finally got a bit of a smile.

    "Didn't you say you'll be back soon?" She said, afraid that Aning might encounter some danger outside, "Why did you go for so long?"

    "I went to pick up something." With an annoyed look on his face, Aning quickly came to Jiang Zhinan and sat down, "But I made a mistake in my estimation, I thought it was that thing. It only takes half a day to do it, but I didn't expect her to do it for a whole day."

    "What is it?" Jiang Zhinan was a little curious.

    "It's for you." Aning said this, slowly took out a purse from his pocket and opened it gently in front of Jiang Zhinan.

    Jiang Zhinan looked down and saw that there were a bunch of fake scorpions and fake birthmarks inside.

    "Hi." This scene was very shocking, Jiang Zhinan felt a little nauseated when he saw them, and quickly moved back.

     

    If you look at this look, it will really make Big Teeth laugh.

    Jiang Zhinan's stamina is not as good as Aning's after all, and she has been suffering from back pain due to Aning in the past two days. Say no to trouble.

    "Hey." Aning nodded, then sat next to her, and began to talk to Jiang Zhinan seriously.

    Now Jiang Zhinan is a fugitive suspect, and the streets are full of her notices, so if you want to go out, it is really not easy.

    Since that's the case, it's better to make a disguise, so that others will not recognize her even if she is coming.

    Jiang Zhinan played the role of a beggar at that time, and could pick up a few handfuls of mud and paste it on the spot, but now An Ning is reluctant to let her do it again, so she can only think of other ways .

    "Yu'an, please post it and try it." Aning gently persuaded her, "Be good, I can take you out to play after you post it."

    "Do you really want to post it?" Jiang Zhinan refused in his heart.

    "Yes." Aning nodded, noncommittal.

    "Okay..." Seeing her righteous words, Jiang Zhinan had no choice but to raise his hand to take the purse, frowning and took out a soy-sized bun from it son.

    Soft, soft and sticky, that feeling is indescribable.

    Jiang Zhinanguang felt goosebumps all over his body when he held it, not to mention sticking them all on his face.

    "It's alright." Aning encouraged her, with a sullen smile in her voice.

    Jiang Zhinan blushed at her smile, so she stopped dragging it, and directly stuck the scorpion on her face.

    "Does it look good?" she asked afterwards.

    "It's beautiful." Aning nodded, and finally couldn't help but burst into laughter, "Post a little more, so that people really can't see you."

    "Yeah." After the first time, the second time I did this work, I was obviously much happier. Jiang Zhinan very quickly put the remaining scorpions and birthmarks on his face Then, he approached Aning to ask her, "What about now?"

    A Ning can't tell.

    "That's good." Jiang Zhinan responded, got up and walked to the bronze mirror to take a picture, and found that her current appearance was really unspeakable.

    "It's all right." Aning comforted her from behind, still smiling, "Yu An is still as good-looking."

    I believe it is your fault.

    Jiang Zhinan sighed, and suddenly remembered that she was disgusting herself with this thing just now, then she turned around and sat down in front of Aning again, staring straight at him without saying a word her eyes.

    "What's the matter?" An Ning looked a little dazed by her.

    "I look like this, do you still dare to kiss me?" Jiang Zhinan's eyes flashed a hint of slyness.

    I wanted to use this thing to threaten her.

    Aning raised his eyebrows, then leaned forward and kissed Jiang Zhinan's face.

     

    What a ruthless man.

    Jiang Zhinan nodded and was defeated.

    It was getting late, Aning asked people to prepare hot water and insisted on taking Jiang Zhinan to take a bath.

    Jiang Zhinan, who has suffered losses twice, doesn't listen to her at all. This time, no matter how she says or coaxes her, she won't go in. wash.

    Jiang Zhinan sat at the table while reading a book while waiting for her to finish washing. Then she asked her men to prepare hot water again, and she took the time to wash herself.

    After doing this, the two of them laid on the bed together.

    "Do you think I can escape this disaster?" After lying down like this for a while, An Ning suddenly heard Jiang Zhinan on the pillow ask herself this.

    "Of course you can." Aning turned to look at her, "Yu An, just trust me, we still have a long time ahead."

    "I want to marry you, I want to accompany you all my life, and I want to do many, many things with you." She said this, her eyes were full of tenderness, "So no matter what No matter what obstacles stand in front of me, I will definitely not back down, no one can stop me."

    "Yeah." Jiang Zhinan nodded, subconsciously clenching Aning's hand.

    Aning stared at her for a while, and after a while, she couldn't help but kiss her.

    In fact, there was something she didn't tell Jiang Zhinan.

    She went out this time, not only brought back these gadgets for disguise.

    She also went to pick up her custom-made wedding clothes.

     

    But because she never saw Jiang Zhinan, she didn't bring back the wedding dress, for fear that she might break it, so she had asked the store owner to keep it for her for so long.

    But this time it is finally possible to get it back.

    She will dress the lady herself.

    Just thinking about it, Aning felt an indescribable sense of happiness in his heart.

    …

    Aning woke up early the next day.

    Jiang Zhinan was still asleep, looking good, breathing steady and sweet.

    An Ning couldn't bear to disturb her, so she got out of bed softly, and after quickly grooming, she quietly pushed the door open and walked out.

    My subordinates have been waiting at the door for a long time, and when they saw her coming out, they hurriedly wanted to call her.

    Aning shook his head, put his index finger to his lips, and said softly, "She is still sleeping."

    The subordinate nodded and immediately understood what was going on.

    "Send a few people to guard the door." Aning said this, and looked back with some worry, "If she loses a hair, you will naturally know what to do. "

    "Little know." The subordinates quickly agreed.

    "Yeah." Aning raised his lips, smiled, and left quickly.

    She has something to do today.

    There is a pharmacy in the capital, which sells a wide variety of medicinal materials, and the price is cheap. On weekdays, if people want to take medicine, they will all go there to buy it.

    The pharmacy has been open for so many years, and it appears in everyone's sight every day. It seems to be no different from an ordinary pharmacy.

    But only a few people know about it, and some banned drugs are sold there.

    For example... an invisible, colorless and tasteless drug that can kill people.

    Ordinary people don't know about this matter at all, even a powerful and powerful high-ranking official may not be able to get it, but because of Aning's high power, he can know about it from certain channels. Not surprisingly.

    The medicine will not be put in the pharmacy on weekdays. The store will only take it out when someone orders it. Today is the day for Aning to pick up the medicine.

    She came out early today, and there was no one on the street. In addition, Aning was not dressed in a flamboyant way, with a hat on her head, so no one would notice her at all .

    In this way, she walked quickly to the store. As soon as Aning stepped in the door, the store owner just came to the table and sat down.

    "Have you brought what I want?" She pressed down on the brim of her hat and asked the shopkeeper softly.

    "What?" The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows.

    Aning didn't speak, reached out and took out a blood-red stone from his pocket and placed it gently on the table.

    "Wait a moment for me." The shopkeeper nodded, then turned around to get the medicine.

    In this empty space, a subordinate suddenly ran in, as if there was something urgent to report to her.

    Aning nodded and put his ear to listen to him.

    It's about Sun Jin.

    As she expected, Sun Jin really went to the place where Jiang Zhinan lived before, and it seems that he still checked the bottom of the sky there.

    But she was a little surprised
