Jin Tingjiao

Chapter 110 Why are you looking for me?

As soon as Shen Xi entered the porch, he smelled the smell of boiled mutton.

It's neither early nor late at the moment, it's a bit strange to be stuttering.

Following the purple-clothed guards who came to answer the door, they entered the second gate, only to find that it turned out to be a wide courtyard that occupies a large area, with overlapping inside and outside, and I don't know how deep it is.

And if you only look at it from the outside, you can only feel that this is just an inconspicuous courtyard.

The guard stepped over the moon gate in the east, and she pushed aside the flower branches protruding into the corridor, and followed.

Walking through the corridor between the rockery, the eyes suddenly open up again, and there is a small garden in front of it, and the corridor of the small garden leads to the Baosha connecting the main courtyard.

Go up the stone steps and enter the veranda, and when you reach the entrance of Baoxia, you can see the long open window, where the curtain dances lightly, and a person wearing a purple gold dragon crown and silver scale bright armor sits on the floor.

On the long table in front of him is a charcoal-burning cauldron stove, the red oil soup in the cauldron is bubbling, and a pile of complicated official documents is placed on the other end.

Even though the hot soup in front of him was full of aromas, His Royal Highness seemed unable to taste the delicious food. Instead, he was simmering the meat slowly, while frowned, and buried his head in the official document.

Wearing a battle armor and eating shabu-shabu, while looking at the document with a murderous look.

Shen Xi couldn't help but wonder to himself, this son of King Yan, who has falsely accused General Chen Xiu and regards seven lives as worthless, is he trying to kill people right now?
It's no wonder that she hurt him behind his back, it's really a villain's behavior to use his status as Prince Yan's son to manipulate such a young man like her.

She didn't expect this to be the case. The guard who brought her in sent her under the curtain and then left. Right now, there are only him and her in the room.

And when he was concentrating on the official documents, the atmosphere was very solemn. She couldn't disturb her at this moment, so she just stood under the curtain and waited attentively.

Even though there was a scent wafting into his nostrils, as long as he imagined that he was eating human flesh or rat flesh, he would not be disrespectful at all.

This is also what Xiao Shi taught her.

Sometimes she also felt that Xiao Shi was not actually the famous lady advertised by the world, because in addition to being dignified and graceful on the surface, she also had deviant ideas in private, and even made people laugh and cry in some things.

At that moment, Zhang Xie would always say half annoyed and half annoyed that she was spoiled by her mother.

But right now, although she was restrained in her heart, she did not dare to relax in the slightest.

Xiao Huai looked through the resumes of several generals in the Datong camp, including general Su Peifang, and his brows were deeply frowned.

He read it twice from beginning to end, slammed it aside, and then opened another military newspaper.

What was listed in the military newspaper was Su Peifang's and others' all kinds of wild words in the camp recently. Apart from saying that Xiao Huai had avenged his personal revenge in the camp, they also blatantly publicized that they and Chen Xiu were loyal to the Yan Palace, but in the end they ended up avenging their kindness and revenge.

He sneered, lowered his head and ate a mouthful of meat, and after moving his eyes away, he caught sight of a statue-like figure standing under the curtain.

Yes, he forgot.

He raised his head and looked over while chewing his food.

At the moment, he is calm, and there is no trace of arrogance.

Didn't he say his stained fingers were dirty and smelly?
He didn't close his eyes all night, didn't change his clothes, and the smelly mutton was still being cooked here, why didn't he cover his nose and say he stinks?
He glanced at her, rinsed his mouth with a cup of tea, and looked down again.

While he was sneering, Shen Xi had already recalled all kinds of memorable past events in his previous life.It has to be like this, so that she can resist being distracted and not disturb the one who ate a big meal after the first case.

Growing up in a well-regulated noble family, she has her own set of rules for survival.

Not every young lady from an aristocratic family must be a model of female training. No matter how dignified she is on the surface, she will be as flamboyant in private.

But right now, she can't show it off.

The setting sun outside the window was gradually sinking, and she couldn't wait any longer.

She turned her head and glanced at her superior, only to see that he seemed to have finished eating, and was concentrating on reading the military newspaper in his hand.

From her point of view, his eye sockets were slightly blue, and the small light blue patch on his chin protruded again. Against the silver scale armor, he looked like a mighty general standing proudly in the yellow sand. However, it looks a bit tired this way.

She didn't understand, since he is busy with official duties, why is he here when he is not in the palace or Yamen?
When Xiao Huai was changing the booklet, he had already noticed that someone was looking at him, so he raised his head and looked at the booklet, and then looked down at the booklet.

When Shen Xi saw this, he still made up his mind, walked steadily to the front of the long case, nodded and said, "Your Majesty."

Xiao Huai didn't look up: "What are you looking for me for?"

The voice was hoarse and cold, it was him who killed that day in the yamen of the governor's mansion of the five armies.

Although Shen Xi didn't know where he offended him again, but he knew that he was deliberately making things difficult, so he had no choice but to put down his figure and pretend to be his grandson: "Minnv got the information from shopkeeper Liu of Qionghuatai, saying that the person Minnv was looking for found Now I am here with Shizi, so I have the courage to come here, and I hope Shizi will do it for me."

Xiao Huai didn't move at all, and didn't express anything.

Shen Xi didn't want to continue talking, so he took a look at his book and saw several seals on it, which looked like an urgent military newspaper.

Moreover, the inscription has the emblem of the military governor's mansion, which is obviously from Datong.

She remembered that Chen Xiu, who was killed by him not long ago, also belonged to Datong. Why is Datong so uneven?
There was a light slap in front of him, he closed the booklet and put it on the case again.

When he reached out to take another book, a large spotted finger with sapphire dragon pattern clasped on his thumb suddenly appeared in front of him!
Shen Xi's eyes suddenly stopped...

Isn't this thumb finger the one that Liu Ling temporarily took in that day? !

She suddenly looked at his face, but he still lowered his eyebrows, indifferent to her presence.

She suddenly understood that the spotted finger was his, and when she was at Qionghua Terrace that day, he was there!
——No, what did she say after seeing the thumb finger that day?How could she remember that she seemed to have said something she shouldn't have said...

Her face suddenly froze.

How did she know that the spot finger was actually his?

Thinking about Liu Ling's expression earlier, then, could it be that he is the owner behind the Qionghua Terrace? !
She suddenly felt that it was difficult to say whether she could walk out of the yard today.

Obviously, after he let her go in the Wujun Yamen last time, he didn't intend to pursue the previous matter, and she also thought that the two had nothing to do with each other since then, but who knew that they would encounter this again!

What should she do?
She looked at him calmly, her face was as tight as iron, and she couldn't find any chance to take advantage of it.

Or she came by mistake.

She adjusted her breath, and saluted him deeply in as gentle a tone as possible: "Minister interrupted rashly, how offended you are, so I will leave."
