Seeing him like this, Jade's heart softened and she softened her tone and said: "I'm not saying that, but your current appearance really worries me. And Xiao Ningzi, you also heard that the master said to him
I appreciate it so much that I even rewarded you with an eighth-grade crown. If you don’t use snacks anymore, the master will become more and more dissatisfied with you, and sooner or later, your position will be taken away by him."
Hearing this, Sanfu sighed and said: "I don't know what you said, but in the past few days, I have been thinking about what would have happened now if Wen Guiren or Xiao Ningzi had not saved their master at that time;
Could it be that the master is already dead, and the two of us don’t have to be so cautious and smiling?”
Jade was shocked by his rebellious words and quickly covered his mouth and said, "You are crazy. If these words are heard and spread to the master's ears, you will lose your head."
Sanfu pulled her hand down and said, "I don't know how to speak just because I know. Jade, do you know why I didn't completely block her when I was saving my master, and gave Nian an opportunity to take advantage of her?"
Jade's eyes flickered and hesitantly said: "You won't tell me that you did it on purpose, right? Because..." The following words made her tongue-tied and she didn't dare to continue.
"Yes." Sanfu forcefully pulled off the leaf that fell in front of him. In late summer and early autumn, the edge of this leaf has turned yellow. Even if it continues to hang on the branch, it will soon wither and fall. "Jade, don't you
You know, at that moment, I really hoped that the master would die like this, so that you and I wouldn't have to worry all day long. Also, even if we still can't become a novice, at least we don't have to keep a distance so deliberately."
Jade was so shocked by his rebellious words that she couldn't speak for a long time. She just stared at Sanfu blankly. After an unknown amount of time, a sigh escaped from her mouth, and then she gently touched Sanfu's cheek with her fingers.
, "Forget these things, don't think about them again, let alone mention them. Master, she is alive and well, and what we have to do is to serve her well; only by doing this can we both live and be able to
good."
Sanfu looked at her seriously and said with a little unbearability: "I'll forget it, just because I'm afraid you will be wronged."
Jade smiled softly and said: "I have served my master for so many years, and I know her temperament well, but it's almost the same, and nothing will happen. Besides, even if I am really wronged, won't you still be there to comfort me?
Unless the kindness you treat me is all fake."
"How is this possible?" Sanfu chuckled at what she said, and then said: "By the way, do you have the two North Sea black pearls I gave you last time with you?"
"What's wrong, do you want to go back?" Saying this, Jade put his hand into his collar and pulled out a red rope. Under the rope were tied two beads exuding malachite green, "I'm afraid
If you put it in the room, people will see it, so I tied it with a rope and hung it around my neck, covering it with a collar.
It's up, so people can't see it. If you want it, I'll give it back to you." She was about to take off the rope, but Sanfu hurriedly stopped him and said, "I said it was given to you, so there's no reason to take it back. I just want to take it back."
I just thought of it, so I asked casually, it looks good when you hang it like this, don't take it off again."
"It's up to you." Jade said and stuffed the beads back casually, "Okay, you go back first, don't let anyone see the two of us together."
Just as Sanfu was about to agree, he heard a noise coming from behind a tree not far away. Then he seemed to see a figure flashing for a moment, and a look of vigilance appeared in his eyes. After signaling Jade to stay away, he tiptoed over.
, I wanted to see who was hiding behind the tree, but when I got there, I found that there was no one behind the tree, except for a branch that had been trampled into two pieces. I thought that the noise just now was caused by trampling on the branch.
.
Jade waited for a while, feeling uneasy, and walked over quickly and said, "How are you, have you seen anyone?"
"No, he must have left just now." Sanfu said solemnly, unable to stop worrying in his heart. Whether it was his relationship with Jade or the words he just said, once word got out, the consequences would be disastrous, and in the end
What I'm afraid of is that someone will take this matter to the master and make trouble.
This kind of worry also appeared in Jade's heart, and she was so anxious that she almost cried, "Oh no, if word gets out, you and I won't have to be human anymore. Sanfu, what should we do?"
Sanfu gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay. It's empty talk. As long as we refuse to admit it, we won't be able to pull off any tricks."
Jade was still worried, "Is everything really okay? And I'm afraid the person coming is... Xiao Ningzi. He came out with us just now. When I brought you here, he didn't go far."
Sanfu was in a state of confusion, but when he saw Jade's anxious look, he comforted him: "The figure I saw just now was probably not Xiao Ningzi. Don't scare yourself. Let's go back first. Remember to calm down.
Don't show your true self, especially in front of the master."
Jade said helplessly: "That's the only way it can be. I'll leave first. You be careful."
The dusk of that day passed in a state of anxiety and tension, but what comforted Sanfu and Jade a little was that not a single word was said about them. Xiao Ningzi also behaved as usual, with nothing unusual.
At night, Nala was about to take a rest after washing, when he suddenly saw a figure standing outside the shark gauze curtain under the dim candlelight. It was strange that everyone had been asked to retreat, so how could there be anyone still there?
Could it be jade?
"Who is outside?" She tried to persuade her, and the figure moved. Then the gauze curtain was lifted, and the figure walked in and kowtowed: "Slave Xiao Ningzi, please meet your master."
"Is that you?" Nala glanced at Xiao Ningzi who was kneeling on the ground strangely, "Why don't you go to sleep and come here to this palace? Why are you still standing outside quietly? Could it be that you are pretending to be a child?"
Do ghosts scare me?"
Xiao Ningzi quickly said in fear: "I don't dare!" After a pause, he said in a low voice: "I just don't trust my master, so I stay outside to prevent anyone with ill intentions from harming my master."
Nala looked at him in surprise, and then she laughed a little and said: "What are you talking about? Nian has been imprisoned in the cold palace. Even if she wants to assassinate me, it is impossible. Besides, now
The palace doors of Kunning Palace have been closed, and outsiders cannot enter at all."
Xiao Ningzi was silent for a moment and then said in a low voice: "I'm just afraid that the person who wants to harm the master is not an outsider."
Nala heard that something was wrong. She held up her arms and tried to sit up. At the same time, she asked solemnly: "What do you mean by this? Is there anyone in Kunning Palace who wants to do harm to me?" As she said this, she herself felt
