This scene stunned the four of them.
“Let me see! Let me see!” the Little Princess said anxiously to Xie Jinnian.
Xie Jinnian lowered his hand.
The Little Princess took out her finger and poked Wuhu.
Wuhu did not move. It was like a rod that could roll with a flick of a finger, like how a priest would control a zombie.
The Little Princess was extremely sad. “Ruyi is really dead! Ji Xiang would have no companion!”
The black crow raised by Xie Jinnian was called Ji Xiang.
The Little Princess looked at the Saintess and complained, “You killed Ruyi!”
The Saintess had a respected status, but the Little Princess was not afraid of her. “You’ll compensate! Compensate Xie Jinnian for his Ruyi!”
The Saintess frowned. “I was clearly saving it just now.”
Cheng Qingxue hurriedly said, “That’s right. My sister’s medical skills can even save a holy bird. This is just an ordinary parrot…”
“It’s called Ruyi!” the Little Princess said angrily.
The Saintess looked at the dead bird suspiciously. “Let me see again.” “There’s no need,” Xie Jinnian refused calmly.
“You’re not allowed to touch Ruyi again!” The Little Princess’s heart ached.
Some things could only be cherished after losing them.
Thinking of Ruyi’s quiet and obedient appearance in her arms, the Little Princess even regretted not playing with Ruyi more just now.
“Saintess, please go ahead. The princess and I will leave first.”
After saying that coldly, Xie Jinnian held the Little Princess’s hand and left.
Cheng Qingxue felt that there was something wrong with that evil bird.
“Sister…”
The Holy Maiden said coldly, “Stop talking. Haven’t you caused enough trouble?”
Cheng Qingxue said aggrievedly, “That bird is really despicable. It’s fine if it dies.”
The Saintress expected better from her and said, “I’ve really spoiled you.”
There were some things that were useless to explain. Cheng Lian had spoiled Cheng Qingxue too much and had already raised her to be arrogant.
She wouldn’t think about how she cured the bird to death for now.
She was more concerned about why Cheng Su’s bird was sold to Xie Jinnian.
Did they interact in private?
This was not good news.
Xie Jinnian’s bird died, and the Little Princess was no longer in the mood to stroll around. In addition, she was indeed tired, so Xie Jinnian sent her back to the palace.
“I told Father that she killed your bird!”
The Little Princess wanted to stand up for Xie Jinnian.
The Little Princess was not someone who would show sympathy to servants. Xie Jinnian was an exception.
He could always make every master in the palace like him.
Xie Jinnian smiled. “Thank you for your kindness, Princess. His Majesty is already very tired from working on the state affairs. Don’t let him be sad about a bird. Princess, you can tell His Majesty something interesting. His Majesty will like it.”
Even though the little master was so young, she already knew how to fight for favor in the palace.
She thought for a moment and nodded. “Alright, I’ll send the gift I bought for Father.”
After leaving the palace, Xie Jinnian got into the carriage back to the courtyard.
He looked at the dead parrot on the table and said calmly, “Stop pretending. How can anyone die the way you did?” Wuhu did not move.
He took out a packet of bird food.
This bird food couldn’t compare to what Su Xiaoxiao gave, but it was still a good delicacy for birds.
Wuhu immediately gave up on its disguise and flapped its wings.
Xie Jinnian said in amusement, “I was just trying my luck. Are you really not dead?”
Wuhu was speechless.
This was a very bad head eunuch!
Xie Jinnian was sure that the parrot was tricking Cheng Qingyao and her sister.
Cheng Qingyao had caught it before. It held a grudge and had tricked the sisters. It made sense.
However, wasn’t this bird too unlike a bird? He touched its feathers and smiled. “Interesting.”
He was not afraid of offending the Saintess.
He used his lowest status to play with the noblest person.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
In the courtyard, Su Xiaoxiao hung the traitor Wuhu up in her heart and whipped him three times.
Unless it tricked the Saintess, she would deduct two pieces of bird food from its salary.
Su Xuan said, “It’s getting late. Aren’t you going back?”
Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and said, “Are you concerned about me, or do you want to chase me away quickly so that you can continue what you didn’t
finish just now?”
Su Xuan quietly took a sip of tea. “I already said it’s not what you think.”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh.”
Su Xuan said, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll go in first.”
Su Xiaoxiao crossed her arms. “Yes, it’s not what I think. You can’t wait much longer!”
“Does Wei Ting know that you come over often?” Su Xuan asked.
Su Xiaoxiao instantly stopped.
“Alright, alright. Back to business. I still have two last questions. Was the person in the mine imprisoned by the one in the palace?”
Su Xuan did not hesitate. “Yes.”
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin. “In that case, Xue Ping, Feng Aozhu, and Mu Tan have already contacted the King of the Southern Wilderness in the palace. Does the Saintess know?”
Su Xuan said, “I don’t know if she knows.”
There was no hurry. She could start with Cheng Lian.
Su Xiaoxiao continued to ask, “I saw Mu Tan take his blood inside. What was he doing?”
Su Xuan paused for a moment before saying, “The person in the palace has a strange illness and needs his blood as a medicinal catalyst once a month.”
The corners of Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth twitched. “Once a month. Does he have periods?”
Su Xuan was speechless.
Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat and said seriously, “So this is the reason why the King of the Southern Wilderness in the palace didn’t kill him to prevent future trouble. ”
She was still puzzled. If he wanted to sit firmly in the palace, how could he leave a time bomb for himself?
In that case, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t have to worry about the safety of the person in the mine for the time being.
If the King of the Southern Wilderness in the palace needed him, he could live safely.
However, he could not be happy too early. If the strange illness was cured, he would lose his value.
Su Xiaoxiao bade farewell to Su Xuan and got into the carriage.
Halfway through, she bumped into Wei Ting, who was riding his horse over.
She lifted the curtain and asked, “Where are you going so late?” Wei Ting’s expression was solemn. “Su Li went to look for Su Xuan.”
“Oh, so be it. Can Su Li get out of bed? Why do you look like a disaster is coming? Su Xuan won’t beat Su Li up.”
Wei Ting said, “Dad was worried about Su Li and secretly followed him.”
“Just follow…”
Halfway through, Su Xiaoxiao realized that something was wrong. “Dad went
The two of them exchanged glances and knew that the other party had guessed Su Xuan’s identity.
Su Xuan wanted to kill Wei Xu.
The moment the two of them met, one of them would die.
With Su Li’s lousy skills, there was no way he could stop Wei Cu.
With Princess Hui An asleep, no one could stop Su Xuan.
“Fourth Brother! I’m here to see you! This is your sword!”
Su Li returned the Rakshasa Sword to Su Xuan as if he was playing tricks.
Su Xuan had just taken the sword when he sensed a powerful and familiar aura.
He sent Su Li into the room with a palm, flicked his sleeve, and closed the door with his internal energy.
Then, he rose into the air and stabbed at Wei Xu!
