Qing'er and the two bowed and waited for a long time, but they didn't wait for the nobleman to respond. They couldn't help but secretly glanced at each other, and then heard the person above say: "It's okay, you can go and play."

The two boys, who had been holding their breath and not daring to breathe, got so excited that Ling Xiaobu moved back, and after a few steps, three steps turned into two steps and started running.

Xuezhao leaned on the pillar, her eyes turned away from their figures happily running away, and fell on the plantain in front of her.

A moment later, there was a sound of "Ouch" from the corner of the veranda, and Xuezhao looked over again, only to see that Qing'er ran too fast just now, and bumped into Shi Zikai. Zikai slapped his shoulder.

Shi Zikai didn't mind at all, and let him play with a smile, and he didn't know what he was talking about when the fan was lit.

Two people, one is elegant and graceful in brocade clothes, the other is a handsome young man with flying eyebrows, standing in the wind, you come and negotiate with each other before letting each other pass.

Xue Zhao looked at it and smiled unconsciously.

Shi Zikai talked with Qing'er for a while, and then let them go. He walked around the corridor through the leaves, Shi Shiran came to Xuezhao, waved his wide sleeves to salute, and said with a smile: "The emperor Uncle is very interested, the scenery in Liucheng is the most charming at this time of year, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, if you want to visit Emperor Uncle, you will definitely be happy."

Xuezhao smiled slightly: "I just entered the door with my front foot, and you know everything with your back foot. Zikai's eyes are sharp enough."

Shi Zikai's black eyeballs moved slightly, and he began to act coquettishly and pretend to be naive: "My heart is concerned about the emperor's uncle, so my eyes will naturally be sharp."

He bent down, looked at Xuezhao, his eyes were crystal clear, and said, "I only hope that Uncle Huang is in good health and everything goes well—this is the truth."

Xuezhao just smiled, noncommittal.

Shi Zikai changed the subject and talked about the business, "It's been a long time since the remnant of the evil spirit army threw himself into the river, but we still haven't been able to find the corpses of Shi Zizhang's beast and the dog he raised."

Xuezhao lowered her eyelashes and said, "Jilin has sent more people to look for it."

Shi Zikai didn't pay attention to his strangeness, and asked, "Is little general Ji really looking for it?"

Xue Zhao raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean by that?"

Shi Zikai waited for him to enter the port, and said: "I heard...Little General Ji has indeed been focusing on this matter for the past few days, but he didn't even have the time to walk around the river—he has been in the big prison in Liucheng. Interrogating the prisoners of the evil spirit army!"

Xue Zhao said, "Interrogate the captives?"

Shi Zikai said: "That's right, I heard that they always ask some inexplicable questions."

Xuezhao asked kindly, "For example?"

Shi Zikai said: "For example, four or five years ago, did their general Zhong Tianqing ever go to Tianlu Camp?"

Xuezhao was taken aback for a moment, puzzled. He was not interested in how Ji Lin did his business, but...it's okay to go and have a look.

Just as Xuezhao felt better, she took Shi Zikai and Master Guo who was listening in a daze, and went all the way to Liucheng Prison without saying hello.

The prison in Liucheng is very close to the left side of where Xuezhao is staying.There is a large courtyard outside the prison cell, but there are only a few steps from the courtyard to the prison gate.When Xuezhao entered the courtyard, the guards at the gate didn't even have time to notify him. Ji Lin's stepfather ran out of the cell in a panic, and happened to meet Xuezhao on a narrow road.

Xuezhao bumped into this pale, down-and-out but handsome middle-aged man head-on, and didn't recognize who it was.

Shi Zikai immediately introduced: "Uncle Huang, this is General Ji's stepfather. He is very interested in coming to the southern border this time, so he came with his nephew."

Xuezhao looked at the strange unguarded gate in front of him, nodded slightly to him, and Zhong Yusheng hurriedly bowed to the side of the road.

Xuezhao went straight past him and entered the prison door. There was no one on duty in the hall and corridor, and doubts abounded in his heart.

After a while, he heard crying and talking from the first cell in the corridor. Hearing the sound, it was quite lively.

He approached, and Ji Lin's voice came from inside: "These are the only things that are close to him?"

"Back to the general, our Qingtouer has always been simple, this is really all he has." A voice tremblingly said.

Ji Lin seemed to be looking through those things, "What kind of junk is this!"

The previous voice said: "I heard that Qingtouer was born in a poor family, and he never cared about the expenses of food and clothing."

Shi Zikai looked at Xuezhao's face, and at this moment pushed the door open and entered.

There was a bang on the cell door, and dust was flying. Ji Lin was holding a girdle with the tip of his sword, and immediately turned his head, "Who is it?"

After seeing clearly that it was Xuezhao, he was startled, showing an embarrassing and complicated expression, and he was holding on to the point of the sword with his girdle in his hand.

Everyone in the cell saluted him, and Ji Lin mumbled, "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Xuezhao glanced past the tip of his sword, and smiled slightly: "Can't I come?"

He strolled in, Ji Lin hurriedly stepped aside, revealing an empty armchair in the middle of the room, and Xue Zhao sat down.

Shi Zikai followed leisurely, and said with a smile, "Little General Ji is not going to cross the river to supervise the search, what is this interrogation in prison?"

Ji Lin was already prepared, and cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency, I don't know, Zhong Tianqing from the evil spirit army came quickly and cunningly. This subordinate thinks that by interrogating the people around him, maybe we can find some clues."

Shi Zikai pointed at the tip of his sword and said with a smile, "Oh, what did Little General Ji find?"

Ji Lin threw the girdle on the tip of the sword to the ground, and said: "This subordinate wants to start with his family and find his family to hang on the tower. If Zhong Tianqing is alive, maybe he will be lured out."

Shi Zikai said: "Yes, it makes sense."

"Zhong Tianqing claimed that he was from Beihe Town, and that his family members were all there, but his subordinates sent people to investigate. His family members were gone many years ago. People said that he only had a mother and younger sister. His parents were at odds in the early years, and his father left He and his sister ran away, and his mother and sister have not been settled by him in recent years."

Shi Zikai smiled and looked at Xuezhao, but Xuezhao was running away. Suddenly, a picture flashed in his mind: the two were sitting side by side under the black boulder, Zhong Tianqing told him about his life experience, and he said that even his father looked down on him. His mother, how could he think highly of what his mother left behind.

Then under the night, he puffed his cheeks, and the golden-red fire foam flew from the torch he was blowing.

Ji Lin called anxiously in a low voice, "Your Highness?"

Xuezhao came back to her senses and paused, "The army has already found out what you said, is there anything else?"

Ji Lin bit his lower lip, endured and endured, and said coyly, "It's gone."

Xuezhao nodded, and was about to speak, when someone suddenly asked, "Why is it gone? Didn't you find a girdle, a sword, and a lot of needles and brains from Qingtouer's foothold in Liucheng, and you just need to find someone Obscene clothes and trousers."

Ji Lin blushed, and stared at the man fiercely, Xue Zhao also looked there, and saw a man in the back row of the kneeling captives, with his back straight, squinting at them. Tie Touer, who was also interrogated by Xuezhao before.

Before Ji Lin could open his mouth, Shi Zikai immediately looked at Tie Touer with a smile, and defended Ji Lin, "Interrogating the captives is naturally meticulous. It seems that the evil spirit army doesn't know how to be careful to win battles."

Tie Touer sneered, "Your Excellency has a sharp mouth, but..." His gaze swept away from Xuezhao, "We don't ask those weird questions during interrogation."

Shi Zikai shut his mouth and looked at Xuezhao.

Ji Lin forgot to be angry, and hurriedly said to Xuezhao: "Your Highness, this place is too dirty, please move back to the residence first, and I will report the matter of interrogation at night."

Xue took a look at him, then swept across the room full of subordinates and prisoners, and said softly, "Okay."

After he finished speaking, he got up, glanced at a few things thrown on the ground out of the corner of his eye, paused, and went straight out of the cell.

He walked through the corridor of the prison cell, and as soon as he reached the gate of the bright place, Shi Zikai, who was a little behind, chased up from behind and presented a girdle.

The ivory-white girdle, the plain leather buckle, has no traces of tattoos, and is slightly damaged around the area that has already been washed.

Xuezhao looked at Shi Zikai suspiciously.

Shi Zikai said with a smile: "I see that the emperor wants this, so I brought it."

Xuezhao smiled strangely, "I want this?"

Shi Zikai was taken aback, with a trace of embarrassment, "Yes..."

Xuezhao wanted to say no, but in the end she didn't say anything, just turned around and left.

Shi Zikai held the old girdle and didn't know what to do. He exchanged a glance with Master Guo who had been silent all this time. He was still holding the girdle.

When Xuezhao returned to the room, it was getting late, Shi Zikai obediently put the girdle on the round table in the middle of the bedroom, exchanged a few words of greeting and then left.

Master Guo also went down and closed the door for him.There was no light in the room, Xuezhao sat leaning against the round table, looked at the tiles on the ground for a while, then took advantage of the dark sky, picked up the old girdle on the table, and slowly looked back and forth.

After looking at it for a while, he entered the warm pavilion, found a small black lacquered box, opened the box, and there were many close-fitting clothes stacked in it, and a small red oiled paper parcel was placed on the top plain shirt.

He put the girdle and the small package of red oiled paper together, and closed the lid of the box.

When it was completely dark, Master Guo ordered people to light up the lights, and served all kinds of exquisite dishes like flowing water, covering the whole round table with a dazzling array of beautiful things. The snow-lit dining table rarely had vulgar big fish and meat, and there were more rare delicacies from mountains and seas. All kinds of cooking, frying and stewing are exquisite, beautiful and delicious.

This time, Xuezhao raised her chopsticks and found that there was a dish of spicy garlic and crispy pork trotters inside.

His chopsticks stopped.

Seeing this, Master Guo immediately said: "This is a famous snack in Liucheng. The people below said that it will be served. Please try it. Although it is rough, it is also their intention, and the subordinates are not embarrassed to stop them... Don't you like it? "

Xue Zhao said: "It's okay."

Even though he said so, he didn't touch the chopsticks.I don’t know if it was the greasy and meaty pig’s trotters that turned off his appetite as soon as he was on the table, or he had no appetite in the first place, his internal organs were heavy, as if blocked, and he couldn’t eat after just a few mouthfuls of food, dozens of untouched dishes The table was removed.

In the dim halo, he sat on a chair and randomly looked for a book to read. At this time, Ji Lin was wearing a brand new red military uniform, his eyes and face were moist and shiny, as if he had just bathed, and he entered the door. Come and slowly walk up to him.

Xuezhao knew that he was going to talk about the day's affairs, but without raising her eyes, she said, "Let's talk about it."

Ji Lin bit his red lips, there was a hint of charm under the halo of lights, he said in a muffled voice: "I just interrogated Zhong Tianqing's daily communication, but I didn't find anything out of it."

Xue Zhao said: "Really?"

Ji Lin pursed his lips, and changed the subject: "I heard that Your Highness... hasn't hired anyone to sleep with her recently."

Xuezhao stopped flipping the book, "So what?"

Ji Lin said in a low voice: "The soldiers in the army are clumsy, and my subordinates are afraid that they will not serve His Highness well."

He gritted his teeth, really throwing his shame to Java, and took off the bright red military uniform outer shirt, revealing his breasts inside, only a loose red inner shirt.

Xuezhao frowned, and then her eyes fell on him.

He said lightly: "Get up, what does this look like!"

Ji Lin's eyes turned red, "This subordinate wants to serve His Highness! This subordinate has been by His Highness's side for many years, but His Highness never let this subordinate get close, this subordinate... this subordinate..."

Xuezhao interrupted him: "I don't need it."

Ji Lin became anxious, and knelt down on his lap, "Your Highness doesn't want me! But do you need Zhong Tianqing?!"

Xuezhao suddenly turned her face to the side, looking at him.

Ji Lin had tears in his eyes, "I asked all the questions today! Then Zhong Tianqing went to Tianlu Camp in his early years! He was in the same class as you!"

Xuezhao said plainly: "I have already told the soldiers about this."

Ji Lin said aggrievedly: "But you didn't say that you two have a close relationship! Did Zhong Tianqing seduce you back then?"

Xuezhao was very helpless, he opened his mouth, but Ji Lin rushed to say, "Look at him, he looks like a dog, but what he does is very dissolute! Oh, yes! What face does a kid from a poor family want?! I have no father to discipline since I was a child, and my mother doesn't love me, so I finally met someone who is so bright and beautiful, so I just tried my best to cling to him!"

Xuezhao was really displeased this time. He dropped the book and brushed Ji Lin away. He stood up, "Don't talk nonsense."

After being brushed away, Ji Lin turned around and hugged Xuezhao's leg, "I'm not talking nonsense, he's just seducing you! He looks at you differently! He just likes you!"

Xuezhao's heart shook, he lowered his head: "What did you say?"

Ji Lin snotted and burst into tears, "He likes you! I've seen it for a long time! The way he looks at you can burn people! If it wasn't for hindering Shi Zizhang's kindness to him, he would have smashed himself Here you go!"
