Chapter 121 Who Am I (3)
After a cup of tea, Yanzhi and Yanling came back with bruised noses and swollen faces. They both returned to their respective seats after saluting to Si Yujiang. Before Yanzhi could sit still, Si Yujiang said in a deep tone: " Yanzhi, take this jade pendant back to Qingbi County, and work with Yingluo to find out what's going on before returning to Beijing."

As Si Yujiang said, he handed the white jade pendant to Yanzhi. Yanzhi was startled, and wanted to say something, but seeing Si Yujiang's eyes and expression, he didn't dare to say anything, only respectful He took the Bai Yupei calmly and said "yes".

Yanling outside the carriage could hear that Si Yujiang's tone was wrong, he wanted to make fun of Yanzhi for going back to Qingbi County but he didn't dare to laugh.

For a long time, Si Yujiang's heart was so restless that he couldn't calm down.

The carriage was still driving in the direction of Gyeonggi, without turning around, and had no intention of turning around.

Qingbi County, Prince Yi's Mansion, Ji Yao.

When it was not too late, there was a frost at night, and the grass and trees in the yard were covered with a layer of wet frost, and the air was damp and cold.

Dong Nuan squatted in front of the kitchen stove to burn wood, the fire was very warm and bright, illuminating her thoughtful eyes.

The entire courtyard was silent, and there was no sign of Si Jixia.

The earthenware pot stewed on the stove was filled with white mist, and a thick white liquid overflowed from the edge of the pot. It seemed that the white porridge in the pot had been boiled. The porridge in the kitchen has been cooked, and he is still squatting in front of the stove to stir up the firewood in the stove.

When she realized that it was time to check whether the porridge in the pot was cooked, and was about to stand up, a tall figure stopped by her side, stretched out her left hand to open the pot cover, and then used the long handle placed aside The wooden spoon stirred the boiled porridge in the pot, then squatted down, and took out the firewood that was still burning in the stove.

Dong Nuan looked sideways at Si Jixia doing these things skillfully, looked at his side face, looked at his obviously gray lower eyelids, and asked in a soft voice: "Just came back?"

Si Jixia's hand holding the firewood trembled slightly, and nodded, "Yeah."

Dong Nuan didn't ask any further questions, but stood up, "I'll take a bowl to serve the porridge."

She saw the black hawk that delivered the letter last night, and Si Jixia didn't intend to deliberately hide anything from her. He just let her go slowly, went to the courtyard and squatted down to remove the tiny copper hawk tied to the black hawk's leg. Guan, and stroked the back of the black feather lightly, the black eagle flapped its wings and left after completing the task.

After that, he let her go to bed earlier, and he went back to his room.

He didn't explain anything to her, or that he didn't plan to tell her about it, and she didn't ask, she knew that as long as he wanted to say, he would tell her everything without her asking. It's like she told him the reason and purpose of marrying him.

Even though she was lying in bed all night without sleep.

In the middle of the night, she put on her clothes and shoes and got up, walked to his house like last night, knocked on the door lightly, and called him a few times, but only answered her that there was no sound in the house, she was sure , he was not in the house, and neither was last night.

And the reason why she is so sure that he is not in the house is because if he is in the house, even if he is inconvenient to open the door, he will not respond to her as silently as he is now. These days, whenever she calls him, he never responds of.

And where he went, she didn't know or guess, she only knew that he didn't leave through this door, because she was lying on the bed just now and didn't hear any movement in the courtyard outside the door, and—

She also tried to push the door, which was locked from the inside, which proved that he had not walked out of this door after returning to the house just now.

She even saw the two mech birds on the osmanthus tree in front of the small building, one facing the direction of the moon gate and the other facing the direction of the small building, as if... guarding the small building in the yard for him She is average.

She also stood under the osmanthus tree and observed the two mech birds for a long time, and found that they were simply exquisite workmanship. Except for the difference in color and size from the real birds, their appearance was lifelike, and both eyes were made It's very realistic, but it doesn't move its eyes.

Just as she was observing the two mechabirds carefully, her little red-spotted snake crawled out of the house hissing. Only when it climbed over the threshold and the rear half of its body was still inside the threshold, a white streak appeared. The light flashed before her eyes, and flew towards the direction of the little red-spotted snake, only to hear a "ding", a small crossbow bolt that was half the thickness of a finger as long as a chopstick pierced through the body of the little red-spotted snake, holding it steady Nailed firmly to the threshold!
I saw the mecha bird on the osmanthus tree facing the direction of the small building with its beak slightly open, and the sharp white light hidden in the beak could be clearly seen in the dim light of the swinging lantern in the corridor!It was the white light dotted on the tip of the sharp arrow cluster!

At that moment, she was shocked, she never thought that there was a mechanism hidden in the mecha bird's body.

The person who can make such a mecha bird——

She had no sleep at all, and it was even more difficult to sleep like this, so she simply stopped sleeping. After dealing with the little red-spotted snake nailed to death by crossbow arrows, she packed up the clothes she needed to go to Xishan.

At that time, there was no sign that the door of Si Jixia's house was about to be opened.

He seems to... have been out for a while, is there something to do, or does he always go out at night?

Well, the more I thought about it, the more irritable I felt, so I went to the kitchen to cook breakfast, but the things I didn't plan to think about always came to my mind for no reason, which made her almost boil the porridge, if he didn't show up if.

Dongnuan didn't have the heart to cook side dishes. Although her cooking skills were horrible, Si Jixia had already sat down, but stood up again, walked to the low cabinet beside him, opened the cabinet door and said, "How about frying an egg for Ah Nuan? Remember there are still eggs in the cabinet."

The hug last night seemed to have never existed, because they still got along quietly like every day before, no one asked anyone any questions or words, but the "A Nuan" that Si Jixia uttered without any hesitation showed that they met last night Hugging has really existed, and it no longer feels close and far away like before. Everything looks the same as before, but in fact it is completely different.

"Don't bother, I'm not so delicate yet, plain porridge is fine, and I don't eat like this every day." Dong Nuan so reached out and grabbed Si Jixia, and pulled him back to sit on the stool. This move seemed so natural, even though Si Jixia still tensed up at that moment, only to hear Dongnuangu's warm voice, "Sit down, if the porridge is cold, I don't know how to swallow it."

Si Jixia was silent, didn't insist anymore, sat down, picked up the chopsticks, and shared a table with Dong Nuangu and drank a bowl of bland and overcooked porridge, but he ate a little absent-mindedly, always watching Seeing Dong Nuan Gu lost his mind, so that when Dong Nuan Gu finished her bowl of porridge, the porridge in his bowl hadn't touched a few mouthfuls, so Dong Nuan Gu stared at him to finish his bowl of porridge before counting, Although he drank in a hurry.
