Normally, Xi Xizhi loves meat the most, but today she didn't eat a single piece of meat. After the meal, Xi Xizhi suddenly realized... she was no longer a meat-eating weasel, but a grass-nibbling rabbit!
Moreover, she is the kind of rabbit that is particularly docile. Otherwise, why would she eat everything that An Honghan feeds her?
Even the celery, which I hate the most, I ate two pieces of.
Xi Xizhi didn't have a big appetite. After eating for a while, her stomach was bloated. She lay half-reclined on the chair, her two little chubby legs sticking straight out on the ground. She rubbed her little belly with both hands, looking completely satisfied after eating and drinking her fill.
This scene reminded An Honghan of the past, when the chubby little ferret, after eating its fill, also liked to lie on his lap in this position to enjoy itself.
After serving Xi Xizhi her meal, An Honghan began to serve himself food.
Afterwards, the two lay down on the dragon bed and took a short nap.
Given that the strike had lasted for three days and memorials had piled up, An Honghan finally began to deal with government affairs. However, almost all the memorials he submitted concerned the absurd things that happened between Duan Yufei and Xi Xizhi that night.
An Honghan already deeply resented this matter, and he made no attempt to conceal it when handling government affairs. Whenever he saw a memorial concerning that matter, he would only glance at it before throwing it directly into the wooden bucket beside his desk.
Lynn's eyelids kept twitching, and he thought to himself, "When the eunuchs come to clean up the trash, they'll be busy for a while."
Night gradually fell, and the sky outside had turned dark.
An Honghan looked up, a fleeting, unfathomable glint in his eyes. The show tonight was about to begin.
After reviewing the memorials for an entire afternoon, An Honghan finally managed to get through most of them. Thinking that he hadn't attended the morning court for three days, he absolutely couldn't miss it again tomorrow.
Setting the memorial aside, An Honghan stood up and asked, "Has anything happened in the dungeon?"
Lynn blinked in confusion, wondering what could possibly happen in the dungeon! Besides, weren't all the dungeon guards elites among elites?
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured. The dungeon is heavily guarded. Even if Wu Jianfeng wanted to escape, it wouldn't be so easy."
"I will go and see for myself." Realizing he had asked the wrong person, An Honghan strode away, not holding Lin En accountable for guessing his thoughts this time.
After waking up from her afternoon nap, Xi Xizhi stayed in Panlong Palace. As soon as she saw An Honghan was about to go out, she immediately ran over and followed him out like a little shadow.
"Didn't we just go to the dungeon this afternoon? Why are we going again now?" An Honghan took long strides, and Xi Xizhi had to run to keep up with him.
An Honghan remained expressionless, but a glint of ruthlessness appeared in his eyes. "There's going to be a good show."
How could he let someone who dared to bully him off easily?
Upon hearing that there was a show to watch, Xi Xizhi's eyes lit up with curiosity, and she followed An Honghan with even greater excitement.
But once outside the dungeon, Xi Xizhi looked around for a long time in disappointment, but there was no movement!
Quietly.
Apart from the howling wind, everything was perfectly normal.
"What's the show?" Xi Xizhi asked curiously, trying to pry something out of An Honghan.
"It hasn't even started yet, what's the rush?" An Honghan pulled Xi Xizhi to a nearby grove of trees and hid there.
Under the cover of night, Xi Xizhi and An Honghan quickly blended into the darkness. If you didn't look closely, you wouldn't be able to tell that there were people hiding behind the big tree.
Xi Xizhi was completely baffled and had no idea what An Honghan was planning. However, Xi Xizhi still had a little bit of patience, so she decided to wait and see.
The night grew darker and darker. About an hour had passed when Xi Xizhi felt that the entire area around her was swallowed up by darkness, and she couldn't see her hand in front of her face.
After standing behind the tree for more than an hour, Xi Xizhi's legs were getting sore, and she started fidgeting restlessly.
In contrast, An Honghan maintained the same posture without changing it at all.
Worried that Xi Xizhi's actions would attract attention, An Honghan reached out and picked her up, letting her lie in his arms.
He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Hold me tight, or I'll send you back to Panlong Palace."
Should we send them back to Panlong Palace?
Doesn't that mean we can't watch the excitement?
So, Xi Xizhi obediently let An Honghan take her hand and put it around his neck.
Lying in An Honghan's arms, she felt much more comfortable.
With her little head pressed against An Honghan's warm chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, she felt incredibly safe.
A rustling sound came from afar. Xi Xizhi opened her eyes and looked into the depths of the woods opposite with An Honghan.
Xi Xizhi was a phoenix-cloud sable, with hearing beyond the range of ordinary people, and could hear things very carefully.
They carefully discerned the direction the other side was heading and the number of people in their group...
Xi Xizhi was about to speak when An Honghan spoke first.
"It seems that An Yunyi is determined to take Wu Jianfeng's life, and has even sent thirty or forty people to break into the dungeon."
Xi Xizhi blinked!
An Yunyi!
It turns out the real show tonight is watching someone break out of prison!
Although thirty or forty people is not a large number, it is quite remarkable given An Yunyi's influence.
Because An Yunyi's mother was a maid who died young, she didn't leave An Yunyi any power. Moreover, she was not favored when she was young. Although her status is higher than before, it has only been a short time and her power is not stable enough. Being able to send thirty or forty subordinates to break into the dungeon in the palace at one time is already the limit of her ability.
"I didn't expect An Yunyi to be such a loyal person." Xi Xizhi muttered to herself, thinking that An Yunyi wasn't completely bad after all; at least she tried her best to rescue her ally after he was imprisoned in the dungeon.
An Honghan felt as if he had heard a big joke. He looked at the little one in his arms, unsure whether to laugh or be angry.
"Do you really think she's sentimental? There's no such thing in the palace. If you don't abandon people when disaster strikes, that's considered doing right by others."
"Then why would An Yunyi send someone to break into the dungeon?" Xi Xizhi retorted emphatically.
An Honghan glanced helplessly at Xi Xizhi. This child's heart was still too pure, and she thought of everything in the world as perfect.
“Besides loyalty, there is also something called ‘betrayal and betrayal.’” An Yunyi and Wu Jianfeng’s cooperative relationship was not solid. Once the plan failed, they would face a crumbling alliance.
The first thing these people usually think about is... whether the other party will betray them.
