Chapter 24
"Gulu—gulu—" her stomach growled.

Looking at the dark sky outside, it must be midnight now, I didn't expect to sleep for so long.

She has to go find something to eat.

After getting out of bed, she walked towards the door step by step. Just as she opened the door, she heard two greetings from her ears: "Hello, miss! Are you awake, miss?"

Roar--

Xue Bushang was taken aback, oh my god!Why are these two maids standing at her door?Among them was the shrimp she knew.

And not far away, a team of imperial guards kept patrolling around, and when they saw her, they also knelt down and saluted: "Hello, miss!"

This ostentation doesn't seem like imprisoning her, does it?

Xue Bushang was full of doubts, but the most important thing now was to solve her food and clothing.

I don't know what to eat in this huge City Lord's Mansion.

"Shrimp, do you have anything to eat now?"

"Miss must be very hungry! Please wait a moment, Xia'er will order the kitchen to prepare meals for Miss."

"Wait—wait—" Xue Bushang quickly called her to stop: "Don't bother, just bring my package." She remembered that when she left the inn in the afternoon, the shopkeeper returned the package An extra large piece of beef with steamed buns inside.

Candles had already been lit by another maid in the room, illuminating the entire bedroom.

Xia'er asked Xue Bushang to sit at the table, and said with a smile: "Miss, all the things in your package have been taken away by the city lord! The city lord told us to wait here for the lady to wake up, and the chefs in the kitchen have been waiting Waiting for Miss, it only takes a stick of incense, and Miss will be able to eat hot meals!"

"So nice?" Xue Bushang's eyes widened: "Are all the city lords of your family so... hospitable?"

Strictly speaking, she is not even a guest.

"Forgive me for talking too much, but the city lord is always busy with important matters. It takes a lot of time to deal with official documents every day. Everything in the mansion is arranged by the housekeeper and Commander Ling."

Then why is he so nice to her?

Could it be that he wanted to find out the endless whereabouts from her?

Knowing that you are too hard to eat, so come sugar-coated cannonballs first?
Then he was wrong!
She Xue Bu Shang is notorious for being soft and hard.

But now she is really starving to death!

So when the maids brought the food, she immediately gobbled it up, and the way she ate was not elegant at all.

Almost choked on several occasions, and the shrimp carried water a few times, and it turned out that she seemed to be stuck in the fishbone while eating the fish!
"Shrimp, water—" She stretched out her hand, not paying any attention to the difference between that hand and the shrimp, took the water without looking back and began to pour herself: "Thank you!"

"Eat a meal, what are you in such a rush for? People who don't know, think you're a starving ghost reincarnated!"

A pleasant male voice suddenly appeared behind her, and now she was really choking!
Feng Chuxiao quickly poured a few more glasses of water, and Xue Bushang felt a little better, staring at Feng Chu with a smile: "If you want to choke me to death, then your method is really right! Do you know how scary people can be?" Scary? What are you sneaking behind me for?"

Feng Chuxiao found a place and Shi Shiran sat down: "I just came to see if my distinguished guest is doing well. According to the facts, this distinguished guest seems to be in danger."

Was he laughing at her for nearly choking to death while eating?

Xue Bushang was sure he was laughing.

If someone who is familiar with Feng Chuxiao knows that the city lord, who is usually indifferent and only interested in state affairs, can chat so happily with a little girl.

"It's so late that you ran into a girl's room to talk about her safety? Don't you think that having you here in the middle of the night is the biggest safety hazard?"

"Oh?" Feng Chu laughed loudly: "I really don't think so."

Xue Buzhang stared at him for a long time, and found that he was also looking at her with interest, and the gaze towards her did not show any sign of retreat, she sighed: "Okay! Even if you use delicious food and handsome men to buy you I, I don't know where the little city lord you are talking about is either."

"Really?" Feng Chuxiao didn't seem to care very much: "Let's talk about you today! You've slept for so long and just had a full meal, how about going for a walk in the garden with Feng?"

……

The night breeze is gentle, and in this night without fans, it is really cool only outside.

Facing the wind, feeling the faint fragrance of flowers in the air, Xue Bushang took a deep breath. She never told anyone that she likes looking at flowers.

Seeing the flowers blooming all over the branches can give her a dreamlike sense of happiness.

In the 21st century, people like them cannot stand in the sun.

They are the gods of the night, of darkness.

Now that she has given up her identity, she wants to choose her own life again, and to see flowers bloom, see the sea, and travel to all places, she will realize them one by one.

The coolness of the night wind is almost intoxicating!

"She used to like going out for a walk at night." Feng Chuxiao sighed, but it's a pity that he will never see her carefree appearance again in this life.

He came up with such a sentence out of nowhere, and it took Xue Bushang a long time to understand: "You mean...your wife?" She asked tentatively.

Hearing endless tones, her mother died suddenly, and the person involved was right in front of her eyes. If she could find out the reason from him, she might be able to untie the endless knot in her heart.

Because based on her intuition, Feng Chuxiao really doesn't look like a ruthless monster who killed his wife and children.

That room, the room she slept in, she knew was a room where a woman lived.

"Has it ever been mentioned to you?"

"No, no. Didn't you just mention it?"

Xue Bushang didn't expect him to be so cunning, listening to her words without any trace, she immediately shook her head subconsciously, and immediately took precautions in her heart, so as not to be fooled by this guy again.

"I know he must have mentioned it." Feng Chuxiao pretended to smile indifferently, with a somewhat lonely expression on her face: "She left him to wait for me, but after so many years, I still haven't seen her come back."

He looked towards the end of the flower branch, with a gentle smile on his lips, as if Yi Ren was standing among the flowers, smiling at him like a flower.

Xue Bushang no longer interrupted him, but just pricked up his ears to collect useful information.

And maybe it's because the wind tonight is too gentle, or maybe it's because he hasn't talked about his thoughts with others for a long time, so he tactfully told about his past affairs with his wife.

"Where she came from, I don't know, and where she went, I don't know. She only left a pair of dragon and phoenix twins, and then died, but when I received the letter and rushed to the top of the Northern Wilderness, I just I have seen it endlessly."

It was a snowy night, and the moonlight reflected on the snow, almost illuminating the sky.

He stepped towards that point step by step, but there was no trace of his lover, only the phoenix dancing in the snow lying on the ground.

And there is a lying mark next to it, which should be the daughter he didn't find in time.

For so many years, he has used countless methods, but he still can't find her whereabouts.

Xue Bushang was fascinated, she never thought that Feng Bujue's mother was such a mysterious person.

"That son is Bujue, so what about another child?"

"That child...Ke Yan said that she is very cute, but her strength is too strong, so Ke Yan exhausted her natural cultivation, even sacrificed her life, and sealed all her power." The phoenix eye pointed straight Gou looked at Xue Bushang: "But on her face, she left a red mark like Shura."

He stretched out his hand to trace the direction of the red seal, Xue Bushang almost screamed out, how is it possible?

That birthmark... that one-of-a-kind birthmark...

It was the self before rebirth!
Isn't she Feng Qianqiao's daughter?Why did Feng Chu laugh and say that she is Ke Yan's twin daughter?
She was so shocked that she could barely hear what Feng Chuxiao was saying.

"The mother that Bu Bu Bu saw was not his real mother at all, but the nanny I invited. It's a pity that in order to stay in the City Lord's Mansion, she even gave Bu Bu Bu the medicine that would not grow up. I thought that as long as I still need her, she can stay here forever
...It was too late when I found out, and I had never stopped looking like when I was two or three years old. I killed that nanny. "

Later, he searched for the antidote everywhere, and in order not to be discovered by others, he forbade the servants of the mansion to step into the garden again.

Unexpectedly, there is still a maid who is not afraid of death who intends to seduce him, breaks in and discovers endless strange diseases.

It was only later that he found out that it was because Bu Bu was too lonely, so he drew a beautiful kite to attract them in.

"So...you killed those girls who wanted to accompany him in front of him in order to put an end to his thoughts?"

"Those people will eventually discover his strange disease. In order not to let them spread the word, I can only do this."

He never regretted it, nor would he ever regret it.

Insistence is the last hope Ke Yan left for him, how could he allow others to hurt him?

After hearing all this, Xue Bushang felt like she had fallen into an endless maze, the mystery of her life experience, her relationship with Bujue, and Feng Chuxiao...

"So... so..." She almost didn't dare to continue: "So Wujue, in fact, he is already 14 years old!"

Seeing Feng Chuxiao nodded slowly, she almost had the urge to go crazy.

Where does she come from, she is not Aunt Feng's child, what kind of power does she have, to make her mother sacrifice herself when she was just born, in order to imprison her power.

Xue Bushang didn't know when she returned to her room, and when she closed her eyes in a daze and woke up again, it was already dawn.

Xia'er was still waiting at the door.

Seeing him wake up, Xia'er hastily called for face wash and helped her to change and wash.

Xue Bushang is still recalling every word of Feng Chuxiao.

"I want to see your city lord!"

She said suddenly, regardless of the maids combing their hair: "Immediately! Immediately!"

She has too many things to ask him.

……

The green grass is endless, and the morning sun is still very gentle, but Xue Bushang's heart can't calm down at all.
