Chapter 81: A Murder Case Caused by a Roasted Pigeon
"Are you worried?" A soft and charming voice came from under the peach blossom tree.
It was late at night, and the twenty-seven-eight-year-old moon was as thin and curved as the willow buds that had just sprouted in early spring. A few scattered stars lay quietly on the boundless black night.
The tall and straight figure slowly turned around, staring at the charming and beautiful man under the peach blossom tree with cold eyes. The slender figure looked a little melancholy under the faint moonlight. The night wind blew by, and the red robe caught the wind.
As she dances, her black hair flies gently.
"Are you scared?" Zhi raised his eyebrows and asked calmly.
The moonlight cast a faint shadow on his handsome face. Mei was silent and the air was a little dull.
"Are you afraid that King Jie will find her? Are you afraid that when she sees King Jie, she will think of everything?"
"I……"
"So you took advantage of Xiao Nuo not paying attention and used darts to knock down the homing pigeons released by Tianfu Tower?"
"You know everything?"
"What do you know that I don't know? It's useless for you to capture the carrier pigeon. The carrier pigeon in Tianfulou is not to report to King Jie. As far as I know, Tianfulou is under the command of Li Yunjie, the third son of General Shenwu Li Wei. That carrier pigeon is
Reporting to Li Yunjie."
"I don't care, anyway..."
"King Jie's carrier pigeon is this one." Chi threw the white carrier pigeon in his hand on the ground. "The one who released the carrier pigeon was the general of the palace guard. What is written on it?"
Mei took the bamboo tube, opened it, took out the note and unfolded it. It clearly read: Princess Fangying, now in Nancheng.
"It's indeed the Royal Guards!" Mei An used her inner strength to crush the note into powder.
"It seems like something big has happened in the capital. The cavalry that was searching for Xiao Nuo's whereabouts a few days ago has not been seen anywhere, so Xiao Nuo can walk around in the market with such arrogance..."
"She doesn't remember who she is!"
"It is said that King Jie's elite cavalry have been transferred back to the capital, and most of the country's troops have also moved to the border with Shuilan Kingdom. According to the news I have received, Shuilan Kingdom is no longer content with small fights. Now
We are mobilizing the country's military forces on a large scale and planning to invade Fengyun."
"Tongzhou, more than two hundred miles north of Nancheng, is a military fortress bordering Shuilan. If there is a war, King Jie will definitely go to Tongzhou to garrison. Nancheng is an important base that supplies Tongzhou with materials and military pay. When the time comes, there is no guarantee that King Jie's men will not
Seeing Xiao Nuo, should we leave Nancheng?"
"Xiao Nuo is afraid of the cold. Nancheng is the warmest place. I promised Xiao Nuo that I would take her to a place where it is warm as spring all year round and peach blossoms are in full bloom. I can't break my promise."
"Aren't you afraid that King Jie will find Xiao Nuo and take her away? Aren't you afraid that Xiao Nuo will remember everything?"
"I..." Mei Mian looked confused and hesitated for a long time before answering slowly, "In the past, I would have done anything to make Xiao Nuo happy. As long as I could watch her and protect her from a distance, I would be satisfied, but now...
…I can’t bear to let go anymore…I don’t want to let her go…I just want to be able to hold her in my arms forever…”
Zhen glanced at Mei, his beautiful peach blossom eyes showing no emotion.
"I don't know what to do? I'm very scared, but I don't want to imprison Xiao Nuo. She is a free-flying bird. I don't want to lock her up and cruelly break her wings."
Chi sighed, the moonlight cast soft colors on his beautiful face.
"Don't worry, even if they meet, I won't let King Jie recognize Xiao Nuo, nor will I let Xiao Nuo remember all the past."
"What are you going to do?"
"Don't worry about it, I have my own solution!"
"Don't hurt her!"
"Since she doesn't want to remember those memories, I will help her forget them."
"Don't hurt her!"
"Those memories locked deep in her mind are what hurt her the most. If she thinks of those unbearable pasts and those ruthless injuries, she will be even more hurt!"
"I……"
"She is very happy now, very happy. If you really love her, let her live in the present forever and forever. She will never know who she is. She only knows that she is your Xiao Nuo and you are his charm. Those unbearable
Looking back at the memories, let them remain dusty forever.”
"Can……"
"No more, do you really want her to return to King Jie, are you willing to let her go?"
"I..." How could I let go? Mei Mei looked at the boundless night sky in confusion, struggling in her heart, and let out a sigh.
"Go back and rest. It would be bad if she wakes up and sees that you are not here and becomes suspicious." Zhi glanced at the man in front of him who was obsessed with him. "Don't worry, I will help you solve all the problems. As long as I am with you,
Here, I will try my best to protect you. Even if they find them, my garden is not something they can just enter if they want."
"If it doesn't work, I will take you back to the Medicine Valley! The terrain of the Medicine Valley is steep, and there is only one trail into the valley. The valley is full of deadly miasma, and there are formations. Without my antidote, he will have thousands of troops at his disposal.
There’s nothing the horse can do!”
"Thank you!" Mei walked to the door, turned back to the beautiful man standing in the wind under the peach blossom tree, and said softly.
You're welcome, Chi said calmly in her heart, now, she is also my friend!
Back in the house, the silver moonlight slipped in through the window and danced on the floor. The woman on the bed was still asleep, with her hands and feet spread out in a very unsightly manner, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of her mouth.
The thin drool seemed to have had a good dream, and a sweet smile appeared on her lips in the dream.
"Xiao Nuo——" He gently wiped away the water stains on her lips, gently held her petite and soft body in his arms, gently pressed his chin against her fragrant hair, and murmured, "If
If you feel happy, I will protect you and continue this happiness, and I will not let you get hurt at all."
The woman in his arms murmured in sleep, her soft and sweet body twisting slightly, finding a comfortable position in his broad and warm arms, clinging to him like a cat, her little hands unconsciously walking back and forth on his body, from time to time.
When he touched a quietly erect object, he didn't even notice that the man next to him had his face flushed red and his whole body hot. He was struggling to hold back his burning desire.
When I woke up in the morning, I found that the woman beside me was gone.
"Xiao Nuo——" Mei flew out of bed and searched anxiously. He was afraid that she would leave his side, and he was afraid that something unexpected would happen to her.
"I'm here!" The woman under the apricot tree waved to him, with a sweet smile on her beautiful face, like the first blooming flowers in the morning sun, still carrying sweet and pure dewdrops.
"Why don't you sleep more?" Mei touched her head lovingly, and when she walked closer, she found that she had lit a fire with a bird on it.
"Four hours of sleep is long enough. People who sleep too long will become stupid."
"How can this be true?"
"Why not? This is based on science! It is best for adults to control their sleep time to four hours a day. Too much is not good, and too little is not good either!"
"Okay! Everything Xiao Nuo said makes sense!"
"Of course what I said makes sense, it has been scientifically verified!"
"Okay!" Mei pointed at the bird on the shelf, "What is this roasted?"
"It's a pigeon! Nu, under that peach blossom tree, I woke up early and found this pigeon lying there dead. In the great spirit of frugality and shameful waste, I roasted it and ate it.
Let me tell you, I will add some spices and sauce later. It will be fragrant. I will make you drool when you smell it. Now I am almost drooling. Hehe, taste it first before talking..."
That peach blossom tree was exactly where the carrier pigeon was dropped by the carrier last night. The carrier pigeon was knocked down by the carrier!
"Xiao Nuo, don't eat it!" Mei shouted, which made me tremble as I was about to put the meat in my mouth.
"Want to grab it? There's no way!" I bit off a piece of pigeon meat and swallowed hard.
"Xiao Nuo, no!" Mei rushed over, grabbed my roasted pigeon and threw it on the ground. She slapped my back hard with her big hand, "Quick! Spit it out! Spit it out!"
"Mei! Cough cough..." I was slapped by Mei's powerful Vajra Palm and coughed repeatedly. Looking at the squab covered in mud on the ground, I wanted to cry without tears. Oh wu wu... my beloved pigeon!
"Spit it out!"
I won’t vomit! I won’t vomit! He slapped my roast pigeon on the ground and tried to snatch the piece of meat from my mouth. No door! No window! I swallowed hard, but I couldn’t even chew a large piece of pigeon meat.
I swallowed it and choked so much that I almost couldn't breathe.
"Xiao Nuo, you...you swallowed it!" Mei looked at me anxiously.
"That's right! What's that look in your eyes? Do you want to cut open my stomach and find the piece of meat? How can you be like this? After all, you have been a couple for one night and a hundred days of kindness. How can you be so stingy and not even have a piece of pigeon meat?
Give it to me. You have already knocked the roasted pigeon to the ground. This is great. Neither of you has to eat it. Are you happy?..."
"Where is the devil? Where has he gone?" Mei grabbed me and asked in a panic.
"What? Oh, he seems to have gone out."
"Where? Where did he go?"
"How do I know? I'm not the roundworm in his belly. Why are you so anxious to find him? Have you changed your master and want to take him as your concubine?..."
Just as he was talking, Xiao walked over charmingly, holding a lot of boxes with a smile on his face.
Mei rushed up and knocked the box out of Qi's arms. Suddenly, colorful cardboard boxes of similar sizes fell to the floor.
Mei grabbed Zhi's hand and said, "Where's the antidote? Take out the antidote quickly! Otherwise, it'll be too late!"
"Antidote? What antidote? Could it be that..." Chi looked at me anxiously, "Xiao Nuo, didn't I tell you not to secretly drink my daughter's fragrance? Why didn't you listen!"
"I didn't!" I stood up and defended aggrievedly. I mourned for the dead pigeon in my heart and crossed myself on my chest. I hope you will be reincarnated as a pigeon in your next life, and it is best to end up in my oven. Amen!
"Shi, give Xiao Nuo the antidote quickly, otherwise it will be too late! Please save Xiao Nuo!"
"We have said that there is no antidote for daughter's fragrance. If you insist on saying that there is, wouldn't it be you? Didn't you give her the antidote last time? Why are you asking me this time? You hurry up and hold her... cough cough
...You know what to do, go quickly, it will be too late..."
"It's not a daughter's scent!"
"Isn't it Nuerxiang? Is it Hehuansan?" Chi turned his head and looked at me fiercely, "Xiao Nuo, can you please stop touching those bottles in my room? If I weren't here, you wouldn't even know how you died!"
"I didn't!" I defended pitifully. I was really more unjust than Dou E. I just roasted an unknown pigeon here. Was my life in danger? It would also trigger a bloody battle.
?If there were newspapers in this era, tomorrow's front page headline would definitely be: A murder caused by a squab!
"It's not those messy things, it's the poison you administered last night! Get the antidote quickly!"
"Poison? I am your friend anyway, how could you poison me? Did you poison me last night? Did you poison it in the tea I drank or..."
"No..." He started but was interrupted by me.
"It wasn't in the tea. Could it be that it was in the Jade Beauty Cream? My God, Chi, you should know that no matter how much I take care of myself, I can't reach your level. Why are you still poisoning me? You can't bear to do it when I'm already
Another knife inserted into the scarred young heart? Oh no, is my face ulcerated? Am I disfigured?..."
"Stop! What are you two talking about about poisoning? I haven't touched poison for several days!" Chi was so annoyed that he yelled in an imageless voice, which shocked me who was still howling like a ghost.
I wiped my dry cheeks and looked at him pitifully.
"It's the poison you used last night! Zhi, give me the antidote! Xiao Nuo is poisoned!"
Am I poisoned? I touched my face and looked at my hands. Fortunately, there was no black gas. Could it be that the poison hasn't taken effect yet?
"I told you I haven't touched poison in a few days! When did I take poison yesterday?"
"That's the squab, the homing pigeon! The one you brought back yesterday, Xiao Nuo ate the pigeon meat and is now poisoned!"
"Ah?" I rushed to the tree and retched desperately, no matter what, I had to vomit out the piece of pigeon meat. It seems that tomorrow's front page headline can be changed to: A beautiful girl was poisoned at home because of her greed for squab!
"That squab, no, homing pigeon, is fine at all, okay? I just picked up a stone and shot it in its acupuncture point, knocking it out."
That’s it! Everyone breathed a sigh of relief! Suddenly an idea flashed in my mind, “But when I saw it this morning, it was already dead. Could it be that someone else poisoned it? Oh my god, now I don’t even think about it.
saved!"
"Mei——" I cried and threw myself into Mei's arms, "I never thought that I would leave you after just a few days with you. Mei, why, why is the happy time always so short? Why, why
Is God so cruel that he wants us to separate?"
"Xiao Nuo, I won't let anything happen to you!" Mei looked at Xiao and said urgently, "Zhao, please save Xiao Nuo!"
"Xiao Nuo, are you still awake? There's nothing wrong with that pigeon. It's okay for you to eat ten more!"
"Xi, I know you are good to me, but you can't comfort me without conscience!"
"I'm too lazy to comfort you. That pigeon is really fine. It wasn't poisoned!"
"But you said you just knocked it unconscious. It was already dead when I saw it this morning. Someone must have sneaked into Baiyuan Garden and poisoned it to death..."
Drops of cold sweat broke out on Zhi's forehead.
"Xiao Nuo,——
Where are the tickets? Where are my tickets? I burst into tears~~~~
