into the bosom

Chapter 366 What is there to fear?
Speaking of which, she was inspired by Mr. Jiuyi's paintings.

"Lady?" Seeing that Xu Jiao didn't seem to have heard her at all, and was just checking the message on the handkerchief, she couldn't help frowning, and called out again.

"It's useless to worry, this veil is already in my hands, it doesn't matter what Ashina Zuomu thinks anymore." When martial law was underway, a maidservant of a palace slave came to the door to ask for advice on how to embroider. If he was not a fool, he would have seen something wrong, but he didn't take them down on the spot, and returned all the veils, Ashina No matter what idea Zuo Mu had, it would definitely not be simple.

"That servant girl is also, why did she send the news at this time, isn't this hurting you, my lady?" Lingxue was anxious in her heart, and her tone could not help but bring out two points of complaint.

"That's my secret order!" Xu Jiao didn't raise his head, his tone was calm and unwavering.

"Miss?" Lingxue didn't know, surprised and puzzled.

"I can't wait for the current situation. We have been suspected since we entered the royal court. It is the same whether we do it or not. If this is the case, it is better to do what we can, so as not to be in vain. Be suspicious." Xu Jiao's thought was very simple and rude, he paused slightly, his eyes were full of shadows, "I have searched all other places, but I couldn't find them, and now, there is only one place left. "

While speaking, Xu Jiao had already "read" the message conveyed on the veil, and when he finished that sentence, the expression in his eyes had already settled down.

But Negative Xue couldn't settle down, she glanced at Wen Tao hastily and said, "Is it still Yuhua Terrace?"

Before entering the king's court, Mr. Lang guessed that what they were looking for was most likely in Yuhua Terrace, but Yuhua Terrace was heavily guarded, and it was not easy to get close, let alone looking for something inside?That's why the lady set up the previous situation and searched all the other places in the royal court first.Unexpectedly, the worst prediction still happened.

The room fell silent for a while, Xu Jiao turned his gaze to the desk beside him, and said in a calm tone, "There are already several drawings for Ke Dun and the Princess, Wen Tao, tidy up the drawings, and then I will send it together to the princess to have a look and choose."

"Yes." The complex expression on Wen Tao's face disappeared for a moment, and she obediently responded, then she really went to the book case to sort out the drawings that Xu Jiao had made in the past few days.

However, Negative Xue's face changed in surprise, "What do you want my lady to do? My lady forgot how he explained to you before entering the royal court? If you are sure that the things are in Yuhua Terrace, then you don't need to take any action." , You just need to pass on the news, and then think of a way to get out of the palace as soon as possible to protect yourself."

"My lady...you can't take such risks. In the heart of the gentleman, nothing is more important than the safety of the lady, and it is the same in the heart of the maidservant!" While talking, Lingxue stretched her arms and stood in front of Xu Jiao. , a pair of eyes quietly fell on Xu Jiao's face, but his complexion was as firm as a rock.

"But in my heart, Ashu is the most important thing!" Xu Jiao suddenly looked back at Lingxue, and said in a flat tone, because of the plainness, he was more serious, "Lengxue, I have lost him once, I don't want to experience that feeling again The second time! Why did I travel thousands of miles to Beijie? Don’t you know? Now, Yuhua Taichung has his father whose life and death are uncertain. He is tied in one place, fighting for his life, what is there to fear?"

"Lengxue, we have come all the way, we have gone through life and death difficulties more than once, we have all survived, and now, I don't believe that the next road will not be able to go on. Difficulties and obstacles, bumps and thorns, step down It's a smooth road!" When Xu Jiao said these words, a dazzling light flashed in his eyes, that light seemed to have the power to smash everything, and even those words were full of contention, sonorous and powerful.

Negative Xue's outstretched arms slowly fell down, and a somewhat bitter smile played on her lips. In fact, she knew very well that she could never stop what the princess wanted to do, but she always did not believe in evil.

Xu Jiao's eyes twinkled, and she smiled slightly, "Let's go!"

The three masters and servants came to the main hall with the drawings in their hands, begging to see Gong Ya.Unexpectedly, Tiaoya never even saw them, she just asked to keep those sketches, and after she read them, she chose them and sent them back.

Xu Jiao didn't feel strange at all, she put down her things and went back to her residence with Lingxue and Wentao.

In the dead of night, a figure sneaked into Xu Jiao's room without making a sound.There was no light in Xu Jiao's room, but she was not asleep either, she was sitting at the table waiting for someone.

Hearing the movement, he raised his eyes to look at the person who rushed in, the person was dressed in a black robe that blended into the night, walked to the table without knowing anything when he entered the door, and sat down opposite Xu Jiao.

"Looking for me so urgently, are you looking for something?" A cold female voice came out, and it was none other than Su Nong Ya.

She and Xu Jiao had agreed early on that if there was no urgent matter, they should not have too many interactions on the surface.

"I haven't found it, but I've searched all other places, and now there's only one place left." Xu Jiao didn't hide it from her.

"Yuhua Terrace?" There was no surprise in his elegant tone.

Xu Jiao hummed, "I have to find a way to enter Yuhua Terrace." And since she entered, she didn't want to miss it when she was looking for things or people.

Genya frowned and thought for a moment, "The day after tomorrow! The day after tomorrow will be Ke Dun's birthday. Even if there is no big banquet, there will be a small banquet. There are secrets in Yuhua Terrace, so it will not be at Yuhua Terrace, no matter where the banquet is held. There, Yuhua Terrace will be vacant at that time, which is the best time." However, the security of Yuhua Terrace will inevitably be stricter at that time, and it can't cause a big commotion, so too many people can't enter.

Xu Jiao nodded, "I need someone to help delay the time!"

"You want to go in person?" There was a touch of astonishment in the elegant tone, which must be very dangerous.

"Some things can only be done by me, and I can't leave it to others." It's a matter of fate, and Xu Jiao doesn't trust to hand it over to anyone. What's more, there is a Chuluo Khan involved in it, who is Ashu's biological father after all.

Goya looked at her pair of steady and shining eyes in the dark night, and after a while, she nodded and said, "Got it, I will find a way."

Xu Jiao nodded lightly, "Thank you."

Thinking of something, Xu Jiao suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, looked at Tiaoya, and said with burning eyes, "The seeds from earlier have been planted, it's time to fertilize and water the seedlings to help the seedlings thrive. There may be accidents reward!"

In the dark night, Tiaoya's complexion could not be seen clearly. After a while, she hummed and nodded her head gently.

The next day would be Gu Li Ketun's birthday, as expected by Gu Ya, a small banquet was held in the royal court to celebrate.It was said to be a small banquet, but there were quite a few people who came. In the grassland, all the tribes who surrendered to the Mochu tribe sent congratulatory gifts to the tribes who paid tribute to Beijia, and many nobles came to the royal court and the banquet.

The banquet was held in a garden in Wang Tingzhong, and there was also a landscape in that garden, which was nothing to someone like Xu Jiao who was used to seeing the world, but in Beijie, it was already rare.

It's been a while since Xu Jiao came to Beijie. There are very few cities like Beidu City in the grasslands. Most of the tribes still live a life of chasing water and grass. Wherever the cattle and sheep are placed, they will set up camp there. , Set up felt tents and live together.At the end of summer, they will start to migrate to the valley to avoid the cold. There is almost no autumn on the grassland, the water and grass are luxuriant, and the climate is pleasant. Once the beautiful summer is over, the cold wind will make the grass wither. some.Hu Tian and Feixue in August didn't come to lie.

Due to the harsh climate and limited resources, in order to compete for the land with abundant water and grass, wars often broke out among various tribes in the grassland, fighting and killing. This seems to be the fate of grassland people.It’s just that coming to this northern capital city, I am dazzled by the prosperity and superficial stability in front of me. I often forget in a trance. The killing and scrambling in the grassland people's blood will never stop, tranquility is just an appearance.

Just like these people who came to give gifts to celebrate Gu Li Ke Dun's birthday, how many are sincere?
Even Mo Chuohan, Ashina Zuomu, and Su Nong Ya, who were standing beside Gu Li Ke Dun, didn't have other ideas?
Xu Jiao was impatient to see such hypocrisy. It just happened that in today's Beijie, she was just an insignificant person, far less conspicuous than in Wei Dynasty, and she would not attract attention if she walked away quietly.

Unexpectedly, someone soon discovered that she was missing, and asked Genya, "Princess, where did Miss Xu go?"

Goya's eyelids twitched slightly, and she raised her eyes in an instant, her eyes were back to normal, only with a faint and distant smile, "I don't know when the general got acquainted with Miss Xu?"

"Miss Xu is very good at drawing. General Ben also saw the birthday gift presented to Ke Dun by the Princess Cai just now. It is indeed a wonderful workmanship, which is amazing. This general is still thinking of asking Miss Xu for advice. Maybe I can ask her to do it for me. I tailor one or two items." Ashina Zuomu had a rare smile on his face, but the sharpness in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

Genya pretended not to notice it, and said with a faint smile, "I never thought that the general would be interested in such a thing. However, I am afraid that the general will be disappointed. Although I brought Miss Xu into the royal court, but I I just liked her painting skills, and I didn't know her very well. If the general wants to order something, he can tell Miss Xu himself, but since she is not here right now, the general may have to find another opportunity. As for her Where did she go, the legs grew on her body, I really don't know, sorry!"

Ashina Zuomu nodded, and didn't comment on her remarks, but asked something else, "Where did Princess Pongya find such an expert as Xu Niangzi, or Say, in the Central Plains, there are many women with excellent painting skills? This general has heard that there is a Princess Yingyue in Wei Dynasty. Speaking of which, the princess should have seen it? This Princess Yingyue heard His painting skills are extraordinary, how does he compare with Xu Niangzi?"

At this time, Tengya's eyebrows and eyes were more than twitching, and her heart was "bang bang" twice. She suddenly raised her eyes to look at Ashina Zuomu's smiling face in front of her, and pinched her palms, so she didn't change her face immediately, "What's the matter, general?" Let's be blunt! You don't look like the type to be interested in these things."

"Who says I'm not interested anymore? I'm very interested. It's said that Princess Yingyue's painting skills are extraordinary, and she is favored by her husband..." Speaking of this, Ashina Zuomu approached Yaer He lowered his voice and said meaningfully, "You and I both know who her husband is, so I can't help but be curious about what kind of woman Mo Chuohe can look up to and fall in love with."

Goya looked at him, no matter how calm she was, she changed her face slightly under the gaze of his smiling, but sharp eyes, and her pupils couldn't help shivering a bit.

At this moment, a person suddenly inserted between the two of them, "What is the general going to do? Bo Ya is going to marry me." The person who came was none other than Mo Chuhan, when he said this , a pair of eyes stared at Ashina Zuomu with thick warning.

Because of his appearance, Ashina Zuomu straightened his forward leaning body, but there was no change on his face. He looked at Mo Chuhan and Tengya with half-smiles, his eyes and expressions were very meaningful.

Mo Chuohan frowned, turned around and took Tiao Ya's hand, pulling her away.

Ashina Zuomu looked at the backs of the two of them, his eyes were full of shadows, and the blue color loomed.

"General." Harmon walked to his side, and lowered his voice to report a few words. Ashina Zuomu stared at the direction where Mo Chuhan and Tiaoya left, then turned around suddenly and took a step.

However, at the Yuhuatai side, Xu Jiao didn't dare to bring too many people with him if it made a big noise, but she wasn't unprepared at all.Among the servants who went in and out of Yuhua Terrace, they found two slender and thin ones, and observed them carefully for a few days. Wen Tao's skillful hands transformed the faces of Xu Jiao and Neg Xue into the faces of those two people. Very similar, the master and servant walked directly into Yuhua Terrace swaggering like this.

When Xu Jiao came to Yuhua Terrace earlier, he had a general observation of the layout of Yuhua Terrace. However, Yuhua Terrace was not small, and they had to hurry up. The two of them, as they had discussed before, looked at each other after entering. Nodding his head, he went looking separately.

Yuhua Taichung was really heavily guarded. On the surface, there were guards at every five steps and one sentry at every ten steps. I'm afraid there were still manpower in the dark.

Because of this attire, Xu Jiao walked straight and gracefully, walked around several rooms, and walked through a long corridor, but she didn't find what she was looking for. Xu Jiao reckoned that she should go to the most heavily guarded place. Go, then retreated from the wing room, not wanting to run into a maidservant head-on.

The servant girl looked at her with a ghost-like expression, looked behind her, then turned her head to look at her, widened her eyes, and after a while, she asked in surprise, "Baolaer, why are you here? Wasn't it here just now?" She pointed to a certain direction behind her, then turned her head to look at Xu Jiao, her eyes full of surprise.

Xu Jiao didn't feel flustered at all, and replied calmly, "Suddenly remembered that some things are coming this way, and I walked in a hurry, but I was faster than you. I still want to deliver something to De Dema, so I will go first." Let's go, talk about it later."
