Baoqin shook her head: "No, after the imperial concubine sent the servants away last night, she stayed in the bedroom with you and never came out again. The imperial concubine also told the servants to keep everyone around the bedroom away and not let anyone Someone disturbed her."

It is precisely because everyone was dismissed in advance that everyone guessed that they would arrive at the scene so late.

Luo Qinghan: "Based on what you're saying, did the noble concubine deliberately want Yu Jiu to take her away?"

Baoqin couldn't answer, so she could only speak dryly.

"Please forgive me for being dull, for not being able to guess the intention of the imperial concubine."

Luo Qinghan didn't expect her to give a correct answer.

He kicked everyone out with a blank face.

As for the punishment for those guards, it has also changed from hitting the board to a one-month salary.

Compared with a hundred boards, this penalty is nothing at all.

Zhao Xian felt relieved and retreated obediently.

After everyone left, Luo Qinghan was the only one left in the imperial study.

Ignoring the mess in front of him, he strode around the screen and walked to the side of Ruantao.

Xixi usually likes to lie on this soft couch the most.

Because she came here too many times, there were two more soft pillows on the soft couch, which she specially asked Zhezhi to help make, and cute kitten patterns were embroidered with colorful silk threads on them.

Take away one of the pillows, and you can see a storybook.

There is a bookmark in the story book, which means that she has already read half of the book.

She took the bookmark from Luo Qinghan's bookshelf.

Luo Qinghan originally wanted to wait for Xixi's next birthday to make a set of bookmarks for her.

But now she's gone.

He can only stand in this empty room, guarding a pile of things she left behind, not knowing where to find her?

...

The carriage was still moving forward.

Seeing that the sky was gradually darkening, the surrounding area was still surrounded by wilderness, and there was nothing else to be seen except trees and wilderness.

Xiao Xixi was so hungry that her chest stuck to her back.

She leaned against the wall of the car and asked weakly.

"Are you going to take me to meet the master of Tianmen?"

Yu Jiu replied without looking back: "Yes, my father is very interested in your celestial eyes, and has always wanted to meet you. I failed to kill the emperor this time, and the mission has failed, but if I can bring you back If so, it should be able to atone for the crime."

Xiao Xixi: "Is your father trying to gouge out my eyes and stuff them into his own eye sockets?"

Yu Jiu: "I don't know about that."

Xiao Xixi stopped talking.

When the night was completely dark, Yu Jiu finally found a ruined temple beside the mountain road.

He parked the carriage at the entrance of the ruined temple, then threw Xiao Xixi onto his shoulders and threw him into the ruined temple.

His movements were quite rough, and Xiao Xixi's back hurt from the fall.

Yu Jiu picked up some firewood in the temple.

He lit the firewood, took out two breads from the bundle, and put them on the fire to bake.

The bread is baked until golden on both sides, exuding the unique aroma of wheat.

Xiao Xixi was already very hungry, but now that she smelled the aroma of food, she was almost going crazy with hunger.

Her mouth was spitting wildly, and a loud hunger march played in her stomach.

Yu Jiu glanced at her, and asked with a half-smile.

"do you want to eat?"

Xiao Xixi shut her mouth tightly and remained silent.

Yu Jiu shook one of the pancakes in front of her, and deliberately said in a coaxing tone.

"As long as you sincerely apologize to me and promise not to play tricks on me again, I'll feed you this bread."

Xiao Xixi turned her head away directly, so that she can't see it!

Yu Jiu sneered: "The bones are quite hard."

He picked up the deliciously toasted bread, bit it down, and the crispy layer on the surface of the bread made a cracking sound.

Even if Xiao Xixi didn't look at it on purpose, just by hearing the voice, one could know how delicious the bread was!

Her stomach growled even louder.

While eating, Yu Jiu said, "Isn't it good to be hungry?"

Xiao Xixi pursed her lips and remained silent.

Because she had been in an orphanage for a long time, she knew better than anyone how uncomfortable it was to be hungry.

Yu Jiu intentionally bit the bread very hard: "This cake is really delicious!"

Xiao Xixi lowered her head, trying to imitate the posture of an ostrich, and put her head into her knees, so as to prevent all outside sounds.

While eating, Yu Jiu was mad at the same time.

But no matter how he acted like a monster, Xiao Xixi ignored him.

After a long time, he himself felt bored.

He ate the remaining noodles in two or three bites, drank two more sips of water, and turned his head to see that Xiao Xixi was still maintaining the ostrich posture with his head in his knees.

Yu Jiu asked, "Why are you ignoring people?"

Xiao Xixi raised her head slightly and glanced at him.

"Do you know why I don't want to talk to you? It's not because I can't swear, but because I can only swear."

Yu Jiu thought about it for a while before recalling: "Are you cursing me for not being human?"

Xiao Xixi curled her lips, turned her face away, and continued to ignore him.

Her face was facing the direction of the door, and she caught a glimpse of an orange figure flashing past.

Looking carefully, there was nothing but darkness outside the door.

Yu Jiu got up and went out, and turned back after a while.

I have an extra quilt in my hand.

He wrapped the quilt around him, sat down by the fire, leaned against the post, and began to sleep with his eyes closed.

The winter night was already extremely cold, and the wind leaking from all sides of the dilapidated temple made it even colder.

Seeing that the firewood was gradually burned out, the flames became smaller and smaller.

Xiao Xixi felt that the surrounding temperature had also dropped a lot.

She tugged at the cloak she was wearing, wrapping herself tighter.

Fortunately, her internal injuries have healed, she has internal strength, and with this thick cloak on her body, she should not be frozen to death.

For her at this time, hunger was far more difficult than cold.

She is so hungry!

She raised her head and looked around, wondering if there was anything to eat nearby?

At this moment, Yu Jiu opened his eyes.

Xiao Xixi's gaze met him abruptly, and she couldn't help being taken aback.

Yu Jiu asked with a half-smile.

"What are you looking for?"

Xiao Xixi: "I want to find something to kill you."

Yu Jiu reached out and added two sticks of firewood to the fire, making the fire burn again.

Like a magic trick, he took out a pancake from his pocket.

"Want to eat?"

The moment Xiao Xixi saw the noodles, her eyes lit up immediately.

But soon she forced herself to look away again: "I won't bow to you, you just die of this heart."

Yu Jiu smiled lightly: "Don't worry, I didn't mean to force you to bow your head, this bread can be given to you."

Xiao Xixi turned back again, staring straight at the bread in his hand.

Yu Jiu handed the bread to her.

At this distance, she only needs to lean forward a little, and she can bite the dough.

Facing such a huge temptation, she gritted her teeth and resisted the urge to bite down.

She said: "I don't want you to feed me, you help me untie the rope, I can eat by myself."
