Quick wear: the host is really floating

Chapter 288 The Assassin She Was Beautiful 11
the most important is--

He remembered her birthday.

Chu Zhao got up, and he took out an ugly piece of wood from nowhere.

Xue Zhi looked at the ugly piece of wood with red eyes, and barely recognized that it was a cat.

"This is..." she began.

"I made this for you alone." Chu Zhao looked at the wooden pendant and said with some regret, "It's a pity that it's the first time I made this for someone else, and it's not good..."

There is a legend in the state of Chu that when a man and a woman get married, if a man gives a woman a wood carving, they will live forever.

All in the state of Chu, woodcarvings are generally given by men to their wives.

Chu Zhao, king of Chu, has no queen.

Xue Zhi's face turned slightly pale.

Chu Zhao looked down at her red eyes, with a trace of anxiety in his brows, "A Zhi, what's the matter, don't you like it... I can do better next time."

Xue Zhi shook his head, raised his hand to cover the ugly wooden pendant, his voice was slightly choked, "I like it, I like it very much, it is the best birthday present I have ever received..."

Chu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, smiled lightly, and took her into his arms.

All of a sudden, everyone in the Chu Palace knew that Zhao Jieyu was not to be messed with in the Chu Palace.

……

For the rest of the time, Xue Zhi and Chu Zhao spent a very happy time together.

During this time, she didn't have to kill people, take risks, and live in fear.

She scratched a small blood hole with her finger, and even the blood didn't flow out, just a little blood dripped out, Chu Zhao would be very nervous.

During these days, she has always been the one who is spoiled.

However, the happy days don't always last forever.

People from Qi State are here.

At this time, it is already winter.

The pure white snowflakes were falling outside, and the whole yard was covered in white, looking quiet and serene.

Xue Zhi was wrapped in a thick cloak and stood under the eaves to watch the snow. The little maid rubbed her hands against the heavy snow and walked in from the outside. She saw Xue Zhi standing under the eaves at a glance.

"Jieyu, what are you doing here in such a cold day, be careful not to freeze your body." She patted the snow on her body and said to Xue Zhi.

Xue Zhi raised her face slightly, she raised her hand and stretched it out, a few snowflakes fell on her palm, it was cool.

"I heard that the envoy of Qi State is here."

Her tone was icy and cold, just like the white snow falling outside, without a trace of emotion.

"Yes, you already know?" The little palace maid was overjoyed, her cheeks were reddish from the cold, she smiled and said to Xue Zhi, "I heard that they took a lot of things and food from the Qi Kingdom, and the ones from the Changchun Palace just now They also said they would send it to you in the afternoon."

"It's just this?" Xue Zhi withdrew his hand, turned to look at her and said.

"That's right, they didn't say anything else." The little palace lady was startled and replied.

Xue Zhi looked at her steadily, then nodded lightly, with a hint of tiredness in his voice, "Understood, let's go back."

The little maid was a little confused, but she still came over and helped her into the room, "Yes."

……

Throughout the afternoon, Xue Zhi felt restless.

The charcoal fire in the stove path in the room was burning, occasionally making crackling noises. She leaned on the couch and half-closed her eyes, as if she was about to fall asleep soon.

Suddenly, the little maid ran in from outside with a pale face, "Jieyu...Jieyu, the new beauty conferred by the king has come to see you."

Xue Zhi's drowsiness disappeared all of a sudden, and he woke up completely.
