After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Wen Baizhi had countless questions in her mind about Si Jiu's abnormal behavior.

But she couldn't just be framed like this.

She had many other important things to do.

She first found Minglang and told him that Si Jiu had woken up.

"He looks very bad, and he bit his tongue. I didn't see the wound, but he was bleeding a lot. I'll have to trouble you to help take care of him later."

Minglang asked her, "You are explaining all these things to me so clearly here now, are you not going to visit him later?"

Wen Baizhi nodded helplessly: "He is quite emotional now. To be honest, he bit his tongue because of me, so it is better for me not to see him now. Besides, I have to tell Ping An something now."

Minglang nodded: "Okay, then go and do your thing, I'll go see him right away."

Seeing Wen Baizhi was about to leave, Minglang called him again: "Have you told him about his current situation?"

Wen Baizhi shook her head: "I haven't had time to tell him yet, you can tell him after I come back."

After that she left.

She did have something to do to find Ping An.

Ping An was always at the entrance where they had just entered the cave.

Minglang gave the throat that was previously unable to speak medicine, and after an injection, it was able to speak again.

Seeing Wen Baizhi coming over, Ping An, who had been in a daze, quickly stood up and saluted her.

"lady."

He was able to speak, but his voice was still noticeably hoarse.

Wen Baizhi motioned for him to continue sitting down: "Sit down, we are all on the run together, so what's the point of being a lady or not."

Ping'an saw that she sat down first, so he sat down too.

Wen Baizhi originally didn't know Ping'an's feelings for Cuizhi, but now she suddenly knows it, but Cuizhi is no longer around.

This was a huge blow to Ping An, so she wanted to take the opportunity to assign Ping An a task, check on his situation, and find him something to do to distract his attention.

Although Ping An sat down, he still said, "Madam is our Madam no matter where we are. When we were in Chidu before, we didn't want others to guess our identities, but now we can call her that normally."

Wen Baizhi was silent for a while after hearing this.

Before, when he was in Chidu, even though he didn’t know what the future held, he still took such a big risk to go back and save Shang Yao.

But at least they were happy at that time.

Cuizhi was still with them.

Even though she saw Cuizhi being buried in the soil with her own eyes, Wen Baizhi still felt that Cuizhi was still alive and well somewhere she couldn't see.

But when she was in the bedroom, Cuizhi was busy in the kitchen preparing delicious food for her.

When she went to the kitchen, Cuizhi might have gone out to the street to buy things.

I don't see her all the time, but I just feel like she's still there.

After the sadness between the two eased a little, Wen Baizhi wanted to tell Ping An the purpose of her visit.

"Ping An, I came here today to trouble you with something."

Ping An was sitting quietly at first, but after hearing what she said, he immediately stood up, knelt on one leg and clasped his hands together.

"Ma'am, is there anything I can do for you?"

Wen Baizhi said, "I need you to bring a team of secret guards back to the Governor's Mansion in Kyoto, take something from the secret room in Si Jiu's bedroom and send it here."

Ping An accepted the task without hesitation: "I wonder what the Madam wants?"

Wen Baizhi was well prepared.

While waiting for Si Jiu to wake up, she took some time to get a pen and paper and drew the appearance of the Resurrection Lamp.

Although the drawing doesn't look like the original and his drawing skills are not as good as Si Jiu's, you can still tell what the drawing is about.

"Ping An, actually I can let any secret guard do this, but you also know that it is Si Jiu's secret room. He has hidden countless secrets in it. You know his secret room, but I don't want anyone else to know it except you, so I can only trouble you to go there."

Even if Wen Baizhi didn't explain these reasons to Ping An, as long as she gave the order, Ping An would do it even if it meant going through fire and water.

But she felt that was unfair.

Even though Ping'an is a servant in the Governor's Mansion, he has the right to know what he does and why he is required to do it.

This is also the respect that Wen Baizhi has always insisted on.

Of course there is another reason that she doesn't want to tell Ping An now.

Even she knew that getting over the death of a loved one took time.

Maybe she could find something for Ping An to do, at least to distract him a little bit.

Ping An agreed: "Madam, I understand. I will call for some people to come back to Kyoto with me to get the things."

He took the portrait and carefully put it in his arms.

Wen Baizhi helped him up: "Actually, it would be fastest for me to take Si Jiu back to Kyoto to get the lamp, but you also know that Si Jiu is not in good health now and can't stand such a long journey. If I go back by myself, Si Jiu will definitely not be able to bear wasting so much time on the way back and forth."

They both knew very well how much Si Jiu needed her and how much he depended on her.

Ping An expressed his attitude: "Please rest assured, Madam, I will definitely fulfill my mission and bring this item back here as soon as possible."

Before she finished, Wen Baizhi remembered one thing: "If you come back from Kyoto and see that we are not in this cave anymore, look for marks around us. If we want to retreat, we will also leave marks for you."

Ping An lowered his head: "I've got it."

In fact, there was another thing that Wen Baizhi had gone over in her mind.

But she didn't say anything in the end.

That is to let Ping'an find Cuizhi's family and inform them of the news of their daughter's death.

But Cuizhi had no attachment to her original family during her lifetime, so let her not be contaminated by bad luck after her death.

Wen Baizhi would help Cuizhi get rid of anything she didn't want.

Finally, she patted Ping An on the shoulder.

"Let's go once you've packed up. Thank you for your hard work."

After explaining everything to Ping'an here, it's time to teach that disobedient person inside a lesson.

In order to make her compromise, Si Jiu even did things that hurt himself.

He really has become too powerful.

It must have been a long time since he had experienced the feeling of crying and begging for mercy.

If it weren't for the fact that he was not feeling well, Wen Baizhi would have killed him just like before.

When I returned, Minglang was still treating Si Jiu.

Si Jiu was awake, but just leaned there without saying a word.

If it weren't for the rise and fall of his chest, one would have thought he was gone.

Wen Baizhi walked up to him and was about to touch his face, but Si Jiu turned his face away.

Wen Baizhi was not angry when she found nothing.

"Si Jiu, what do you mean? Do you really think I won't be angry?"

She seldom spoke to him in such a harsh tone.

As soon as the words came out, Si Jiu couldn't help but tear up.
