Lord, your grass jelly has slipped away again [Transmigration Book]

Gu Xun said: "He flew away from my bedroom yesterday, and he has not been seen until now. I have sent people to search the palace all night, but they have not found it, so I wonder if he will return to Prince Rui's mansion."

Ye Zi shook his head: "I haven't seen him before."

He paused, then asked again: "Qe'er has never left without saying goodbye like this before, what happened?"

Gu Xing hesitated for a moment.

Yesterday when he returned to the dormitory, the little gray bird suddenly uttered something, before he had time to ask more questions, the little guy seemed to be frightened, and flew out of the dormitory without looking back.

He did think that the little gray bird was quite spiritual before, but he never thought that he could speak human language.So when I was shocked at first, I forgot to chase them out.It wasn't until the little gray bird didn't come back that he finally started to worry.

Will a talking bird be caught as a monster if it runs around outside?

Similarly, he didn't know how Ye Zi would react when he knew about it.

Gu Xun had doubts in his heart and dared not tell the truth.He thought about it, and said lightly: "This time Yuan Hui came here just to confirm whether Que'er has returned to the palace. Since he is not here, I will search elsewhere and not bother the emperor's wife."

Ye Zi laughed.

The man was dressed a little disheveled, his expression could not hide his exhaustion, obviously he hadn't slept all night.It's rare to see His Royal Highness the third prince looking lost, but he still pretends to be indifferent in front of him. This person is too dishonest.

But Ye Zi didn't expose it, but just responded softly.

Ye Zi said goodbye to Gu Xing, but did not leave in a hurry.

That little bird ran away from home well, so something must have happened to her.Gu Xun refused to confess frankly, he was worried after all.

Ye Zi looked around for a while.The streets were sparsely populated in the early morning, and a few chirping magpies were parked on a branch by the side of the street.Ye Zi walked under the tree, raised his head and smiled slightly at the magpies: "Sisters, can you do me a favor?"

A while later, Ye Zicheng found the little bird that had run away from home in an abandoned courtyard.

He opened the door and stepped into the barren courtyard, and saw the little gray bird squatting in the corner at a glance.The little bullfinch buried its head in its neck, rolled itself into a fluffy and soft fluffy ball, with a few fallen leaves on its body as if shivering from the cold, and was fast asleep.

Ye Zi squatted down, and lightly poked the little gray bird's head: "Queer, little birdie, wake up."

The little gray sparrow woke up in a daze, its eyes lit up when it saw Ye Zi, and it was about to speak, but it suddenly seemed to remember something, and quickly spread its two wings to cover its beak tightly.

Ye Zi tilted his head in doubt, and reached out to pull his wings: "What's wrong? Are you injured? Let me take a look."

The little gray sparrow shook its head vigorously, staring at Ye Zi with its round eyes, neither speaking nor screaming, the eyes gradually filled with mist.

Ye Zi said: "Don't cry, what's wrong with you, is it because Gu Xun bullied you?"

Hearing this name, the little bullfinch finally couldn't hold back anymore, and tears fell down, soaking a small piece of feathers on its chest.Ye Zi held him in his palm, and said in a warm voice: "What's wrong, tell me quickly. If Gu Xun bullies you, I'll teach you a lesson, don't cry..."

The little gray bird whimpered, and said in a crying voice: "He didn't bully me."

"What's the matter?"

The little gray bird hiccupped from crying, and said intermittently: "I... I spoke, little leaf, I don't know why, I spoke in front of him, I..."

"You talking in front of him? What do you mean, you are not..." Ye Zi's voice stopped abruptly, and it was only later that she realized what the "talking" in Little Gray Bird's mouth was referring to.

What the little gray bird uttered just now was not the usual bird song, but the clear and clean voice of a young man.

He...was really talking.

"You..." Ye Zi paused for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "When did you find out that you can talk?"

The little gray bird twitched and said: "I don't know, it suddenly happened yesterday. What should I do, Xiao Yezi, will I become a monster. The monsters in the story book will be taken away by the mage, and there will be no good end. I don't want to be a monster..."

Ye Zi stroked his feathers soothingly, and said, "So you ran out because of this? Are you afraid of being caught as a monster?"

"Hmm..." Little Gray Sparrow said aggrievedly, "Besides, and I seem to have scared Ah Jun... Will he not want me anymore?"

Ye Zi wiped his tears for him, and said with a smile: "Of course you scared him, he just came to look for me, it looks like he hasn't slept all night."

"If you don't go back, he will be worried to death."

The little gray sparrow sat in Ye Zi's palm and lowered his head: "I won't go back. If Ah Jun knows that I'm a monster, he will hate me to death. I don't want to see him."

Ye Zi held his face in his hands: "Look at me, Que'er, I'm not also a monster, the prince doesn't hate me just because of this."

The little gray bird turned his head and thought about it seriously, but as long as he thought of Gu Xing's shocked expression when he heard him speak, he felt very uncomfortable.He stubbornly said: "It's different, I don't want to go back."

Ye Zi said helplessly, "Then what are you going to do, just stay here?"

He paused, then threatened: "...It's cold and cloudy here, there may be wild cats and dogs coming to bite you at night, and there may be other birds robbing you for food. Do you really want to live here?"

The little gray bird shrank its eyes, and said with a straight neck: "I used to live in this kind of place too."

Ye Zi sighed, and put him in the palm of his hand: "I really can't help it, you can go back to the palace with me. When you think it through later, I'll send you back. Is that okay?"

The little gray bird was a little happier, and nodded happily: "Okay."

Ye Zi walked out of the courtyard holding the little gray sparrow.When he came out, he subconsciously glanced at the dark place behind him, saw nothing unusual, turned his head and continued walking forward.

Ye Zi's figure quickly disappeared into the distance, and then the two men in black appeared from the original darkness.

A man in black confirmed: "I didn't hear wrong, did he just say... he is a monster?"

"Didn't you see the bird in his hand that can only speak human? They must be monsters." Another man in black said, "It's true that the master asked us to keep an eye on Princess Rui. Let's go back and report."

Ye Zi didn't forget her original intention of coming out, first she took Little Gray Bird with him to Gu Yan's villa outside the city.That Zhuangzi was occasionally used by Prince Rui's mansion to escape the summer heat in summer, and Ye Zi found out where Zhuangzi was without much effort.

This village is small in scale, hidden in a bamboo forest outside the city, clean and pleasant.

Gu Yan only left two guards outside the gate of Zhuangzi, Ye Zi led the little gray sparrow around the gate, turned over from the wall and jumped into the village.

"Little Ye Zi, what are you doing here?" There was no one else in the village, so Little Gray Bird dared to speak.

Before Ye Zi could reply, the little gray sparrow said in astonishment: "Could it be that the prince is here to steal people?"

Ye Zi: "..."

The little gray sparrow said seriously: "I have seen in the story books that some rich and noble masters fall in love with others, worrying that the mistress of the family will be angry, and dare not marry him in, so they will find a mansion outside to raise them." That's it. The prince won't do the same."

Ye Zi originally wanted to refute, but remembering the name Gu Yan called last night, she suddenly became a little uncertain.

Could that person named Huaiyuan be the one that Gu Yan has been thinking about all the time?

After last night, Ye Zi felt that Gu Yan should have him in his heart.

If it wasn't like this, why would he be so kind to him, why would he not say anything to him, and even in order to save him, he would not hesitate to issue a military order in front of Emperor Jinghe.

Ye Zi's eyes drooped.

Frankly speaking, seeing Gu Yan go to the prison to rescue him last night and falling ill because he was worried about his safety, although his heart ached, his heart was still sweet.

But before he had time to be happy for a long time, he was poured a basin of cold water head-on.

On the way here, Ye Zi forced herself not to think wildly before finding out the truth, and not to doubt Gu Yan easily.But when he really entered this Zhuangzi, he suddenly felt some fear in his heart.

If Gu Yan really likes that person named Huaiyuan, then what is he?

During the few months he spent with Gu Yan, they slept in each other's arms every day, and they were intimate, so what?

Ye Zi even thought wildly, could that person be the princess from the beginning?

Could it be that Gu Yan originally had a princess, but something happened to that person, and Ye Zi happened to appear, so he became Princess Rui by accident.

The villa is not big, Ye Zi walked forward with a heavy heart, and soon came to a quiet courtyard.This should be Gu Yan's residence in Biezhuang.

Ye Zi stood in front of the door for a long time, until the little gray sparrow urged in a low voice: "Little Ye Zi, come in quickly. Don't worry, if Gu Yan is really sorry for you, I will teach him a lesson for you."

Ye Zi smiled at him, took a deep breath, and pushed open the door.

The Biezhuang has been unoccupied for a long time, and the maids have cleaned the house very cleanly. It is spotless and tidy, and there is no sign of it.Ye Zi searched around the house, but found nothing.

Ye Zi breathed a sigh of relief after not finding anything.

Ye Zi called out as if relieved, "Que'er, let's go."

"Little Yezi, wait a minute!" The little gray bird's voice was a little dull, as if it came from a certain confined space.

Ye Zi walked in the direction where the little gray sparrow's voice came from, a small bulge bulged behind an ink painting behind the table.

Ye Zi opened the picture scroll, and really saw the little gray bird squatting there: "What are you doing?"

The little gray finch pecked at the wall with its beak, and said, "There's something inside."

It was only then that Ye Zi discovered that there was a secret door hidden on the wall behind this ink painting.

His heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly regretted coming here, and even wanted to stop the little gray bird immediately and take him away from here.

But he didn't.

Miraculously, Ye Zi stretched out his hand and pushed hard.

There was a "click" sound from inside the wall, and the secret door slowly opened in front of them.

No one dared to set foot in Prince Rui's bedroom easily, so Gu Yan did not set up complicated traps on the secret door.Inside the hidden door is a small dark room.

Ye Zi lit the only oil lamp on the wall of the small room, and the light flickered slightly to illuminate the things inside.

There is nothing special about this small room, only a small table and a chair are placed inside.

A lot of rice paper was scattered on the ground above and beside the case, some had been torn, and some had been crumpled up.Ye Zi bent down to pick it up, and unfolded it on the table.

The same name was written all over the rice paper.

Huaiyuan.

The handwriting on the rice paper is messy and disorderly, as if it was written when unconscious, but upon closer inspection, it is not difficult to see the unique vigorous strokes of the writer.

It was Gu Yan's handwriting.

Through these handwritings, Ye Zi could even imagine how that man locked himself in this small room, and frantically wrote down those names in the pain and torture that made people almost maddened.

Ye Zi's eyes suddenly turned red, and he was fascinated by the sight, until the little gray bird called him softly: "Little Ye Zi, where..."

Ye Zi raised his head, and the little gray bird was staring blankly at the wall in front of the small room.

There are several portraits hanging on the wall.

The contents of the portraits are different, some are standing with a sword, some are galloping on a horse, some are taking a nap under a tree...

In all the portraits, the same person is drawn.

The author is no longer mad and out of control, he solemnly portrays the face in memory with one stroke.

Every frown and smile, meticulous.

That face looked exactly like Ye Zi's.
