Bai Chi was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by Xiao Hei's voice.

"Master, please don't sleep any more. Your husband is here and has been waiting outside for almost ten minutes!"

Bai Chi opened his eyes slightly and saw someone guarding the door, looking at him from time to time.

Xiao Hei continued to explain.

"Your husband finished his meal and cleaned up before sending Hai Dong Qing over. The emperor's rewards hadn't even been counted yet, but when he arrived, he found you taking a nap. The housekeeper came to call you, but your husband stopped him, saying he wasn't in a hurry and would wait until you woke up."

As he said this, he projected the screen to his master.

In the main hall, Xie Yunxiao, who looked refreshed, was teasing two white baby birds. It was unclear whether he really liked them or was just getting familiar with the two little guys.

There was a brazier, hot tea and snacks next to him, and a butler serving him. After all, he was the general who protected the country, and he came specially to deliver things to his master, so how could he be neglected?

Not only that, Xie Yunxiao also intentionally or unintentionally asked the housekeeper about Prince Xian's preferences. When he heard the housekeeper say that Prince Xian liked to go to Yunyan Tower to listen to music the most, he felt a chill on his body.

But it was snowing today and it was cold, but the butler didn't notice it anyway. He kept talking about his prince and how much he was loved by the girls.

Whenever someone held a flower-viewing party, an outing banquet, or any other gathering, as long as the Prince of Xian went, the young ladies from official families who had originally not planned to go would be there.

Especially in recent years, Prince Xian has reached the marriageable age. Not only has the emperor been overwhelmed by the choices in choosing a princess for him, but even the crown prince is helping to find one.

It’s a pity that Prince Xian is used to being free and easy. The Crown Princess is pregnant, but no one knows where Prince Xian’s wife is.

When the butler talked about these things, he was so excited and kept talking. Even the general didn't ask about them, but he was still talking.

Bai Chi silently complained in his heart, "The housekeeper is too worried about his marriage. Also, can you pay attention to Xie Yunxiao's reaction? Can't you see that he is almost stressed out?"

Finally unable to bear it any longer, Bai Chi woke up yawning and prepared to rescue the poor butler who had no idea that he was in danger.

As expected, as soon as he woke up, the maid came forward to inform him that the newly appointed General Guarding the Nation, General Xie, who returned to the capital today, had brought the Saker Falcon and had been waiting in the front hall for a while.

Bai Chi responded pretending not to know, dressed neatly, and walked slowly towards the front hall with his exquisitely carved jade cane.

He didn't actually have a severe limp, but walking without a cane would have been awkward and uncomfortable on his injured foot.

Before anyone arrived, the general raised his hand to signal the butler to stop talking, then turned to look outside the door. The butler was puzzled, and then, in just a few breaths, he heard the familiar sound of a cane falling to the ground.

Then came the lazy yet noble voice of his own prince.

"The general is here. I'm so sorry. I didn't expect the general to come so early. I was sleepy for a moment and kept the general waiting for so long."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Chi appeared outside the hall door, looked at the general with a smile, and then turned his gaze to the big birdcage on the table.

"Are these the two Saker Falcons? They are indeed young birds. Their feathers haven't even fully grown yet. They are so ugly."

Having said that, they didn't really dislike it. They walked closer slowly. There were prepared meat strips and bamboo tongs next to them. They picked up a small piece of fresh meat, and the two little guys rushed to eat it.

Xie Yunxiao stood up when he saw Bai Chi. Before he could say anything, Bai Chi came to him.

Faster than his movement was a breeze that brought with it a fragrance, which immediately made Xie Yunxiao's heart flutter and he even forgot to salute.

Immediately afterwards, Bai Chi bent down slightly, picked up the strip of meat and fed it to him. Because of this action, he seemed to be closer to him.

The pair of white jade-like hands, holding the green bamboo clips, had a faint redness on the joints due to the slight force on the white fingertips, which unexpectedly gave off a bit of eroticism.

Xie Yunxiao didn't dare to look any longer and quickly looked away. However, when he raised his eyes, he saw a slender neck, a perfect profile, and fair skin with a jade-like luster.

With a smile on his lips, he seemed unaware of the strange looks from the people around him. He was looking at the two birds fighting for food in front of him with curiosity and satisfaction.

It is quite big, as big as a pheasant, but it is still covered with fur. However, it has started to molt, so some parts are bare.

Xie Yunxiao was watching intently when he suddenly saw Bai Chi turn his head. He was so scared that he quickly looked away and then heard Bai Chi ask him.

"How did you pick up these birds, General? They look only two or three months old. It's winter already. Could there be chicks hatching?"

Somehow, when Xie Yunxiao heard the word "bird", he always felt something strange, as if it had a hidden meaning.

He was busy cursing himself for having a dirty mind. It must be because he had heard too many dirty words from everyone in the military camp in the past few years.

How could a prince who is pure, elegant, and of extraordinary appearance have such dirty thoughts?

He quickly collected his thoughts and answered seriously.

"Your Highness, the mother of this pair of Saker Falcons was also raised by an enemy general. It is said that she returned three months ago and laid eggs. When they hatched, it was already autumn. The enemy general was beheaded on the spot, and the Saker Falcon was also shot, leaving behind this pair of chicks."

Bai Chi chuckled and continued feeding: "So it's the general's trophy. I must have stolen it. I guess the enemy general was also defeated by the general."
