Jing Zhao stayed up all this time, just staring at his eyes, waiting for Yu Lie to come back.

When he finally saw a familiar figure, he immediately closed his eyes.

It was so late that Yu Lie found that he was still awake, Jing Zhao felt a little embarrassed, and simply pretended to be asleep.

Not long after, Yu Lie lay down and covered himself with the quilt, but there was no movement after that.

After waiting for a while, Jing Zhao quietly moved over, wanting to touch Yu Lie's cheek, but just when his fingertips were about to touch it, Yu Lie opened his eyes.

Jing Zhao was taken aback, held his breath hastily, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.When he came back to his senses, he kept on doing nothing, and put his hand on Yu Lie's face.

Yu Lie grabbed his paw and shook it off, "Still asleep."

Jing Zhao was about to explode unconvinced when he suddenly felt that Yu Lie's hands were cold, "Why are your hands so cold?"

Maybe it was the darkness that gave him shelter and courage, he grabbed Yu Lie's hands and rubbed them, then pulled him into his bed to warm his hands.

Yu Lie froze immediately, letting him move without moving.He came back from the outside covered in autumn night frost and dew, his own bed was also cold, but Jing Zhao's place was very warm, warming his heart all of a sudden.

"Hiss..." Yulie yelled subconsciously when the slit in Yulie's hand was accidentally pressed.

"Ah? Are you injured?" Jing Zhao stopped and half sat up to look at the wound.

Yu Lie pushed him back and said, "Small injury, I don't know what scratched that person."

"On the body?" Jing Zhao asked suspiciously, "What did you do?"

"I hit him."

Beating up Chikun was no small matter, but Yulie said it was as indifferent as giving his own dog a lesson.

Jing Zhao thought about it secretly, but he didn't say anything. If the tenth elder was here, he would have to drag Yu Lie on for a long time.

Jing Zhao asked, "Then... have you dealt with it?"

Yu Lie put his hand on Jing Zhao's and hummed.

"It's better to apply some medicine." Jing Zhao frowned, regardless of Yulie's reluctance, he fumbled for a while to find the ointment, and rubbed it on him carefully.

While scribbling and scribbling, Jing Zhao suddenly laughed, Yu Lie has always only bullied others, no matter what important ministers, if he offends Pofeng, he will clean it up as soon as he says.

Jing Zhao always believes that Yu Lie is the sky that will never fall.

During dinner the next day, Yu Lie and the others were attracted by the discussions at the next table.

Sitting at the next table were three unknown guards from other teams. Alcohol is not allowed in the army and they drank it arrogantly, taking advantage of the alcohol and yelling loudly: "You don't know! Master Chi was beaten last night Already!"

"Brother Hai, have you drunk too much? Hahahaha..." The other two felt that he was talking nonsense.

"What the hell do you know! Last night, many servants in Lord Chi's mansion saw him. Lord Chi was tied up in his room, covered in blood, and whining with his mouth blocked... Besides, Sir Chao Chi didn’t go this morning either.”

With Haige's table as the center, many people around listened to this appalling thing and calmed down to listen to him.Most of the people were shocked, digesting what Brother Hai said without saying a word.

But Yu Lie and Jing Zhao, who were the only ones in the know, had no choice but to drink tea in silence in accordance with the atmosphere of the area.

After a long while, there were rustling discussions in the dining hall.

Liao Zibin lowered his body and approached everyone, "I said, is what this buddy said true?"

Fan Shiyi pushed his teacup to his lips and said in a deep voice, "Just treat this kind of thing as after-dinner gossip, don't talk about it."

Yuan Qi replied: "You are right, misfortune comes from your mouth."

Jing Zhao has a straight temper, and blurted out: "What are you afraid of, it's a good beating!"

After finishing speaking, he was warned by Yu Lie's eyes, and then Yuan Qi asked him: "Hey? Jing Zhao, do you hate Master Chi so much? Do you have some deep hatred with him? Um... For example, if your relative was arrested by the superior Bullying and cutting officials? This kind of thing is everywhere, tell me about it?"

"No, Brother Daqi, you think too much!" Jing Zhao twitched the corner of his mouth, and took a sip of tea guiltily.

Yu Lie didn't help him with his words, but just watched from the sidelines.Let him keep his mouth shut.

Yuan Qi still didn't give up, even Liao Zibin and Fan Shiyi cast doubtful eyes on him.It is not normal for a soldier who looks like he has nothing to do with Chikun on weekdays to act as if he has enmity with Lord Chikun.

Jing Zhao lowered his head and looked around, seeing that they still didn't give up, he thought that he was full and had nothing to do, so he secretly touched Yu Lie under the table, beckoning him to help.

Unexpectedly, Yu Lie tilted his head and gave him a faint smile, not intending to speak.

Jing Zhao wanted to blow up his hair for a moment, so he simply smashed the jar, "I just hate high-ranking officials and nobles! How about it!"

The other four people at the table sighed softly, they understood, and tried to persuade them one after another: "Jing Zhao, the mentality of hating the rich is not good, people should have a normal heart."

"Jing Zhao, you are still young, don't let this kind of psychology distort your nature, change it."

"Hey, they are all right." Fan Shiyi couldn't find new words, so he could only agree with both hands.

In the end, Yu Lie was supposed to speak, Yu Lie wanted to take advantage of the situation to scold him, but he held back under the threat of Jing Zhao's eyes, and just raised his hand to stroke his head to smooth his hair.

He turned his head and said to everyone: "Children are ignorant, just talking nonsense."

Even so, Jing Zhao was still furious, secretly scolding Yu Lie for being an afterthought, causing himself to be inexplicably blamed for hating the rich.

Jing Zhao's problem of holding grudges came out again, and he was determined not to sleep next to Yu Lie at night.

But he couldn't sleep between Liao Zibin and Fan Shiyi, and he didn't want to sleep too far away, so he changed beds with Yuan Qi who was opposite.

Yu Lie raised his upper body to look at him, but he only left a pair of bright white feet for viewing.

Yu Lie smiled, Jing Zhao's feet were just as naughty as himself, they were all exposed.

"I'm not afraid of freezing." He muttered in a low voice. The seasons were changing, and winter was about to begin. It was still very cold at night, so he finally couldn't help getting up and getting out of bed.

Yu Lie reached out and pulled his quilt, Jing Zhao yelled, but didn't wake up.He saw that he had pulled the wrong side, and the quilt was thrown across Jing Zhao's body, exposing his upper body, and he was so cold.

Unable to wake up like this, Yu Lie sighed softly, bent over and climbed onto the bed, turned his quilt in the other direction and tucked it in.Jing Zhao automatically retracted his head into the bed, only showing half of his head.

Yu Lie's movements stopped suddenly, and he doubted for a moment whether he was awake or asleep.Leave him alone and go back to bed and sleep as usual.

There was no overnight feud between them, Jing Zhao obediently hugged the quilt and exchanged with Yuan Qi the next day.

A few days passed without incident, and because of the absence of Chikun's entanglement on the other side of Pofeng, the business is back on track.

And Chikun, who was severely beaten, recuperated at home behind closed doors. He knew that at present, force alone could not seek justice from Pofeng.

But he was not willing to just swallow his anger and let others laugh at him.

It happened that a team was working at the gate of the palace that day, and saw a luxurious carriage approaching from a distance, they politely stopped it, and carriages were not allowed in the palace.

One of the carriage owner's subordinates stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty has granted you permission to pass Lord Chi's carriage."

The guards then let them in.

Without waiting for Yu Lie to find him, Jing Zhao walked to him consciously and said, "Why did he enter the palace? It's only been a few days. Has he recovered from his injuries?"

"Seeing you with injuries..." Yu Lie looked at the direction the carriage was driving away, his eyes gradually darkened, "It's not easy, Chi Kun."

"What do you mean?" Looking at Yu Lie's expression, Jing Zhao knew it was not a good thing.

Chikun met Nan Jiyang, and Jiang Baili was waiting for him.Chi Kun still had clearly visible bruises on his face. This was the first time he saw outsiders after the accident.

Nan Jiyang and Jiang Baili felt terrible looking at it. They first expressed their condolences, and Chi Kun said angrily: "Your Majesty, this was all done by... the people who broke the wind! They were going to assassinate me that night, but they were killed I narrowly escaped."

Jiang Baili once insisted in front of Nan Jiyang that Chi Kun and Pofeng were in collusion, but he didn't expect this to happen. He watched Chi Kun cry miserably with a gloomy face.

Nan Jiyang: "You said you were the one who broke the wind? How did you know?"

"Uh, he declared himself a family."

Nan Jiyang nodded, feeling embarrassed again.Once the biggest suspect was in trouble, which made the arson case no clue.

"May I ask how Master Chi escaped? Was the assassin captured?" Jiang Baili asked.

"The servants of Weichen's mansion happened to break into it. Seeing that there were many people, the assassin climbed over the wall and escaped. Of course he was not caught." Chi Kun looked at Jiang Baili with some annoyance, as if he had a great grievance.

Nan Jiyang said: "Okay, Aiqing must have a good fortune in escaping death, so let's go back to recuperate in the next few days."

"Yes, I will leave." Chi Kun staggered out.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Chi is inconvenient in his legs and feet. I went to see you off, and I also took my leave." Jiang Baili left in a hurry, and caught up with Chi Kun outside the hall. "Master Chi, your trick of calling a thief to catch a thief is really good."

Chikun walked down the steps humming with injuries all over his body. It was late autumn suddenly, and sweat was dripping from his temples. He squinted at Jiang Baili, "You don't have to say what I said, commander, you can see everything I have suffered." When we arrive, His Majesty has nothing to say, so don't hold on to anyone."

"How dare I," Jiang Baili watched his difficult movements with cold eyes, "When His Majesty finishes that den of thieves, you won't be able to escape even if you want to."

Chi Kun stopped in his tracks and looked at him with some amusement on his face: "Your Majesty is such a child, he doesn't understand any rules. This assassin organization has a lot of ties to it. If he wants to take it, there are tens of thousands of people who want to stand up." Come out and make trouble with him. Brother Jiang, for the sake of working together for so many years, I advise you not to interfere in this matter."

Jiang Baili stopped, Chi Kun smiled, and continued walking down alone.
