Ye Chong coughed twice, and drank a bowl of water from Jingjing's hand.

He lay down again, panting for a moment.

"I'm fine. It's just some superficial wounds. I didn't injure any muscles or bones." Ye Chong's voice also changed.

It sounded like the friction of a rusty blunt instrument.

Jing Jing pursed her lips, holding back the lump in her throat, she looked at Ye Chong and said, "You rest here first, we'll talk about this later. I'll call the royal physician over first."

Saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.

Before he could walk out, his hand was grabbed.

Jingjing turned around and looked at Ye Chong.

Ye Chong held Jing Jing's hand tightly and shook her head, "There's no need to go."

Jingjing knitted her brows, feeling that something was wrong with Ye Chong. "Why don't we go? "If you don't go, how will your injuries heal?"

A rare bitter smile appeared on Ye Chong's lips as she said reluctantly, "It's alright. These past two days …" I will leave. "

"Leave?" Jing Jing looked at Ye Chong in surprise. "Where are you going?"

Ye Chong smiled again. It was a bitter smile.

When others looked at him, they couldn't help but feel heartache. They just couldn't bear to see him in such a state.

Ye Chong was a cold and taciturn person to Jingjing.

However, he seemed more like someone who would not fall down or suffer.

Now that Jingjing looked at him, she knew how wrong she was.

It wasn't that he wasn't sad. Rather, it should be said that there was a huge secret buried deep in his heart.

Ye Chong looked at Jing Jing who was in a daze and said, "Return to where I belong. I always belonged there. I've been gone for too long. Now …" It's time to go back. "

Seeing him in such a state, Jingjing couldn't help but ask, "Where?"

Ye Chong didn't say anything, she only smiled at Jingjing and said, "My injuries are fine, I'll be able to recuperate for two days and move freely."

Jingjing nodded with a smile and didn't say anything more.

Ye Chong turned her head slightly to look out the window and said, "There's something I want to tell you. Remember."

Jing Jing's eyebrows twitched, she could feel that the next thing Ye Chong wanted to say was very important.

She nodded, got up and closed the door. She looked around to make sure that there was no one around before she heaved a sigh of relief.

When she reached Ye Chong's bedside, she had already struggled to her feet, her forehead beaded with sweat.

His face was pale and his lips were bloodless.

Jing Jing saw this and could not bear to see it anymore. She gently said, "What is it …." Just say it. "

Ye Chong furrowed her brows, as if her injury had been affected.

After resting for a while, he looked at Jingjing and said, "I saw Nangong Xiu."

"You saw Nangong Xiu?" Surprised, Ye Chong grabbed her arm.

He was too excited to see the pain in Ye Chong's eyes.

Ye Chong continued to nod, and said to Jingjing, "He'll sneak into the mansion, and you'll recognize him."

Jing thought for a moment, she suppressed the shock and excitement in her heart, looked at Ye Chong and said, "Are you sure he will come?"

Ye Chong nodded.

Jing Jing thought about it again.

Logically speaking, the majority of the people selected by Manager Zheng were people Jingjing had seen before.

Even if he hadn't taken a closer look, it was something that he had met before and was observed by Jingjing.

None of those people looked like him.

The only one who looked alike seemed to have not been chased away by Manager Zheng yet.

Then...

"Has he already snuck in?" Jingjing looked at Ye Chong with a serious face.

Ye Chong nodded, "Yes."

Jing Jing frowned, looked at Ye Chong and said, "He sneaked in … Which one? What is your appearance like? "

Ye Chong smiled slowly and said, "I've already told him about this. At that time … If you were to meet him now, it would instead be easy for you to expose a flaw and cause others to suspect you. "

Jing Jing thought for a moment, then decided to suppress the confusion and restlessness in her heart.

Ye Chong's words made sense.

Li Yue had repeatedly warned him not to let anyone from Nangong Xiu or Nangong Xiu inside.

Since Jingjing was so keen on observing Nangong Xiu that she couldn't tell who Nangong Xiu was pretending to be, then Manager Zheng must not be able to tell.

If Jingjing were to reveal a bit of a flaw at that time, it might even arouse suspicion.

I might as well wait until the election is over.

No matter what, the person who had elected Nangong Xiu should be able to keep his.

The fact that he was able to sneak in without anyone knowing proved that he was completely confident. Then … The next election would probably not be selected.

Thinking to this point, Jingjing's heart relaxed a little.

After thinking for a while, Jing Jing remembered that Ye Chong was still injured.

Scratching his earlobe in embarrassment, he asked Ye Chong, "Is your injury caused by looking for my brother-in-law to treat you like this?"

"Don't blame yourself, it has nothing to do with you. Me and him... There have always been grudges. "

"You guys have a grudge?" Jingjing furrowed her brows. How come she had never heard Ye Chong mention it before?

These were words that couldn't be spoken to others.

She couldn't help but ask, "What kind of grudge is this?"

She paused and said nothing.

Jingjing thought that he was unwilling to answer her question.

However, he heard him say, "National hatred, family hatred!"

Jing Jing looked at the sunlight shining in from outside, she felt that this topic was too heavy.

Besides, Ye Chong would not tell her the answer to his question.

and he said: "So, did you fight with him? Or perhaps … Is it settled? "

Ye Chong turned her head slightly and looked at the sword leaning against the bed with dull eyes, "Temporarily..." "I've taken care of it a bit, but there's too much entanglement. I'm not sure anymore for now."

Jing Jing sighed, then muttered a sentence, "When has the injustice been avenged … …"

Suddenly, she thought of something. She grabbed Ye Chong's shoulder and asked excitedly, "So, is he injured as well?"

Ye Chong's frown loosened. She looked at Jingjing and said, "Although he didn't take any advantage of me, but compared to my injuries …" He's much stronger. "

Jing Jing let out a sigh of relief, patted Ye Chong's shoulder and said, "Since you don't want the imperial physician, I'll go get you some Golden Sore Medicine. Take a good rest."

Ye Chong looked at her, and looked deeply into Jing Jing's eyes, with a trace of indescribable emotion in her eyes.

Jing Jing was a bit uncomfortable from his gaze, she touched her face and said, "Is there something on my face?"

"It's nothing," said Ye Chong, "I just feel that …" You look a lot like a person. "

"Who is it?"

After a moment of silence, Ye Chong said, "Beitang Bingying!"

"Senior Sister?" Jingjing frowned, with her senior sister's character, she was far from being able to do it.

Ye Chong nodded her head and said, "You guys have a very different personality. There's a big difference in how you do things."

"Then why are you saying that we're similar?" Jingjing couldn't help but to ask with a frown on her face.

Ye Chong sighed and said, "But … You guys have a very similar set of perverted logic, and are all different from people I know. "

Jingjing wrinkled her brows, "Can you praise us?"

Ye Chong continued, "You all have your principles when you do things. The biggest feature is... "Kind heart."

He thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that his description was not accurate enough, "If you put it this way, it doesn't seem to be accurate either. Your kindness. It's not that kind of blind soft-heartedness, but that... who has a principle that I've never seen or thought of before. "

The more Ye Chong spoke, the more Jing Jing was confused. "So?"

After a moment of silence, Ye Chong replied, "I don't know how to describe it."

"For example."

"Ugh …"

Ye Chong knitted her brows and looked at Jingjing, seemingly deep in thought.

Just like how Jingjing was just now, she looked at the shattered shadows on the ground. After a moment of silence, she said, "You guys have never taken the initiative to harm someone who could threaten you. You only know how to guard yourselves. But when that person invaded you... You will retaliate without any mercy, but you will only retaliate just in time. You will not cause others to have no other choice but to die. "

It was just like how Bing Ying treated the two sisters who were always bullying her, or how Jingjing treated Ling'er.

He would not yield, and would not take the initiative to attack, but he would be prepared, just in time.

This kind of description was indeed much more appropriate.

After a moment of thought, Jing Jing looked at Ye Chong and asked, "Is there anything else?"

After a moment of thought, Ye Chong replied, "And my attitude towards the servants, it really puzzled me."

"What kind of attitude?" Jing Jing couldn't resist asking curiously.

On one hand, he wanted to know what Ye Chong thought of him, and on the other hand, he wanted to know more about his senior sister.

Ye Chong said, "You will not show your compassion and magnanimity, but you will never force them to be your servants. You will treat them like real people and care about what they think. You will truly respect them and treat them as … Think of yourself as someone like you, not a servant. "

Jingjing smiled. She was afraid that everyone from the 21st century would be like this.

Then he laughed and said, "The servants are also people. They serve us, and they are even nobler than us."

"So, when you said she was your senior sister, I didn't believe you. Even now, I still feel that you don't have any convincing evidence, but …" "It's strange that I believe you."

Jingjing's heart warmed, and without a care in the world, she smiled, and said, "It's probably because of my extraordinary charisma that you are deeply impressed, right?"

Ye Chong did not continue her sentence. After a moment of silence, she said to Jing Jing, "But you guys are different, and very different."

"Such as?" Jing Jing couldn't help but to ask.

Ye Chong's dim eyes lightly met Jingjing's eyes and she faintly said, "For example, she is a very powerful woman. It is admirable, but …" But I do not dare to approach them. "

Hearing what he said, Jing Jing couldn't help but ask in confusion: "You don't dare to come close? "Why?"

Ye Chong thought for a moment and slowly said, "Because of such a powerful woman, I will admit …" People like me are temporarily not qualified to get close to them. "

These words that came out with a calm tone, in the ears of Jingjing, for some reason, seemed pale and powerless, making one's heart ache and ache.
