Chapter 55: Fishing with a line

When Jian Xiao returned to her room again, Tuo Jinglie had already left. Jiaojiao and Yueyue had already wiped away the spring beauty in the room. A thick scroll appeared on the desk out of thin air. Jian Xiao walked over and picked it up to take a look.

, "Wu Meng Zhuan" is written in italics, it seems to be a wild history, and there is a note next to it, "The Book of the Boudoir of Biga Kingdom, if you like it, give it to me again!"

Tuo Jinglie must have known that he loved books, so Jian Xiao took it back and started reading it. Late at night, he turned off the lights and took a rest.

Winter nights are always so long, and it seems that the night is still hazy. The door of Jian Xiao's room gently opened a crack. She was asleep and unaware, still covered with quilts and immersed in dreams. Tuo Jinglie walked softly.

Come in, he walked to Jian Xiao's bed, squatted down, looked at her, and felt her breathing. She stretched her arms out of the quilt, and Tuo Jinglie gently covered her with the quilt, "I'm leaving now.

Take care!" After saying that, he kissed her on the forehead and left.

Jian Xiao was unaware of this, she just turned over and fell asleep, a sweet smile appeared on her face

The snow that had fallen all night finally stopped, and the warm winter sun shone on the snow, giving off a white light. Jian Xiao stretched out, ready to open the door and shouted passionately at the sun. Unexpectedly, the moment her hand touched the door,

I was stunned for a moment, I clearly locked the door tightly, why did I open it again?

Jiaojiao Yueyue walked in, and Jian Xiao asked, "Who was here last night?"

"General, he is very kind to his wife. He went to the palace this morning and came to see his wife before leaving."

Jian Xiao frowned. Why couldn't he lock Tuo Jinglie no matter what kind of lock he specially equipped? He didn't do anything strange to him? Jian Xiao looked at herself, but she had nothing to lose.

Jing Lie, I will give you some color to see

Jian Xiao just walked out of the room and saw Boken running towards her, "Madam!" After running so far, he didn't even take a breath. His skill was so impressive.

"Boken, what's wrong?"

"Miss Shi Cuiyu is here again! This time she brought several carriages with her."

Jian Xiao smiled, "It's okay, I'll go take a look!"

Jian Xiao just walked to the door and saw Shi Cuiyu standing instructing the workers to move things down. Boken walked up to Shi Cuiyu and said, "Miss Shi, what are you doing?"

"These are some calligraphy, paintings and porcelain from my house. They can't be placed here, so why not put them here?" Shi Cuiyu said, "Please be more careful. If there are some scratches, you can't afford to pay for them!"

"Who asked you to move here?"

"Jian Xiao! She said yesterday that this General's Mansion is my home. I think the home is too plain, and it has to match General Ariel's status!" Shi Cuiyu commanded, "These two boxes are placed in the living room.

Yes, you carry it in."

Boken stepped forward and stopped, "Our lady is just talking politely, why do you take it seriously?"

"Hey, Boken, you are wrong!" Jian Xiao walked up to Shi Cuiyu demurely with a smile and held her hand, "I really want my sister to come. Anyway, my sister will come often in the future, so naturally I want to

It’s so comfortable to stay here that I can’t wait to let my sister move in.”

"Oh, Jian Xiao, you are really good at talking. I want to live in you. My dad is at home this month. It's good that I can run out."

"Mr. Shi has no business recently?" Jian Xiao asked

Shi Cuiyu sighed: "Can you tell me, there has been no good business news in the past two days. It's too small and it's boring to run around, and it's too big and there's no such thing! Now I'm at home every day, just wandering around."

Jian Xiao smiled slightly, and then helped Shi Cuiyu pack things. The two of them had been busy all day. The general's mansion was completely changed. Shi Cuiyu took off all the original decorations such as horns and cow heads, and replaced them with ink paintings of one color.

There are pictures of beautiful ladies in the landscape. Although Shi Cuiyu has a slightly bad character and attitude, her taste is quite acceptable. She wears gold and silver jewelry, but these paintings are well chosen.

Taking a closer look, there was actually Gu Kaizhi's painting of playing a harp. Jian Xiao was dumbfounded at the time. She had only seen a copy of this painting from the Song Dynasty. She stretched out her hand to touch the original, but she was afraid of damaging it. "Is this an original?"

Jian Xiao asked

Shi Cuiyu nodded, "When my father was doing business, he met a refugee who said he was a descendant of the royal family. My father saved him and he gave him this painting as a gift."

Jian Xiao was stunned. If I could take it back, wouldn't such a painting be regarded as a priceless treasure?

Shi Cuiyu looked at the furnishings around her, "This is why I want to have a home! Hey, it would be great if I could live here every day. When will my father leave?" She complained a little, but Jian Xiao listened to her heart.

At night, Jian Xiao lit a candle, held a brush and wrote something on a piece of paper. Boken stood outside the house and whispered, "Madam, are you looking for me?"

Jian Xiao welcomed Boken in, "Boken, I have been here for a while. I want to send a letter to my family, but I don't know where to send it."

Boken nodded, "It's time to report that your family is safe!" When Jian Xiao first came, she was brought back by Tuo Jinglie on horseback. Her identity is still unknown. Although she is generous these days, some of her behaviors are too weird. "This

Leave the matter to Yun'er"

"Tuoba Yun?" Jian Xiao was stunned for a moment. He had been at the General's Mansion?

"Yun'er is a slut. He's used to being outside, but things like delivering letters have always been his, just let him deliver them to the inn," Boken said.

Jian Xiao hesitated for a moment, then handed the letter to Boken, "Then thank Boken, and thank Tuoba Yun for me."

Jian Xiao closed the door, and Tuoba Yun walked out from the side of the corridor, "Uncle, what kind of work have you done for me again?"

"Send a message to her home! And take a look at her family's background!"

"You want me to investigate?" Tuoba Yun said, "Brother trusts her very much."

"I just want to know if she is worthy of our Tuoba family. Don't let the general lose his fighting spirit!" Boken's usually gentle face suddenly became more calm and careful.

Tuoba Yun took the letter from Boken and curled his lips, "Fortunately, I have a big brother, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bear it."

He unfolded it and saw Jian Xiaojuan's beautiful small regular script. It simply said: "It's fine here. Please rest assured, parents. Turks are rich in products. There are also many valuable fur jewelry in the Western Regions. If you have the opportunity, give them to your family."

Tuoba Yun closed the letter, "I guess I can make a small profit this time!"

"What?" Boken asked.

Tuoba Yun smiled, with a dimple faintly revealed on his face, "Uncle, just leave it alone." He looked at the address on the letterhead, "I didn't even know she had a family!"

Jian Xiao leaned against the window. She only had a 30% chance of winning in this plan. If there was no response tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, she would have to make another plan.
