Xiao Yan remained silent.
Back in the capital, no one ever said he was a nuisance or a troublemaker, but here, whether in the eyes of the soldiers or in the eyes of civil officials like Yuan Qing, he seemed to be a burden.
"Who gave you permission to sit back and reap the benefits?" Xiao Changqi suddenly said coldly, "The military rations haven't been collected yet, go and help."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan immediately nodded solemnly: "Okay."
Sun Jianchou and Yuan Qing exchanged a glance and had no objection to Xiao Changqi's decision.
The prince entrusted Xiao Yan with such an important task as collecting military provisions, which must mean he trusts him.
Yuan Qing had also tested it and found that the token on the assassin that day was not one of Xiao Yan's men.
It seems that someone did indeed frame someone, but wasn't the method a bit too low?
...
Several days after Xiao Changqi left, on a certain day...
On New Year's Day, I was doing my usual aerobics in the garden when suddenly a sparrow flew over, chirping away: "Chirp chirp chirp..."
Master, master, it's broken, it's broken.
On New Year's Day, I was startled by the other person and lost my balance, falling flat on my backside.
"What's broken?" Yuan Dan rolled over and stood up, looking helplessly at the noisy sparrow.
"Egg! Your egg is broken!" The sparrow's voice was filled with barely concealed excitement.
New Year:"……"
On New Year's Day, with a serious expression, he corrected the sparrow: "It's Sun Jianchou's egg, not mine."
"oh."
On New Year's Day, I returned to the room with the sparrow and sure enough, I saw that the eggshell had cracked open and a beak was sticking out from the crack.
"Do you need help?" Yuandan squatted down beside the sparrow, looking at the egg that had been cracked for a long time but suddenly stopped moving, and asked it very seriously.
Sparrow: "Master, we little birds hatch by ourselves. Birds that are hatched by others will be looked down upon by other birds."
"Alright." Yuan Dan then retracted her outstretched wings. Seeing that the little bird wouldn't be able to come out anytime soon, she simply asked the head steward to bring her some bamboo seeds.
The servants in the Prince's mansion all knew that Little Yuanyuan rarely went out; when she did, it was definitely to find food.
So almost every servant in the mansion carried a few bamboo seeds with them, in preparation to feed the birds when Xiao Yuanyuan was hungry.
Some even hoped that the little bird would put in a good word for them with the prince after he returned.
I've forgotten that the little bird is a bird that can't speak human language.
So the two little birds perched next to the white egg, eating snacks and chirping to each other.
"Master, won't it suffocate?" the sparrow couldn't help but ask.
Yuan Dan raised his chin and gestured, "Poke its beak."
A sparrow picked up a wild fruit and tentatively touched the little bird's beak. The next second, the fruit was in the little bird's mouth.
"Master, it's not dead yet." The startled sparrow stared blankly for a while before looking at Yuandan with delight.
Yuan Dan squinted slightly: "It's not dead yet, it's still nestled in its egg and won't come out. Sparrow, take it to the kitchen and have them make it into a fried egg."
The obedient sparrow nodded obediently: "Yes, Master."
"Chu mi~"
Just as the sparrow was about to make a move, a soft, milky chirping sound suddenly came from inside the egg.
Then, the eggshell slowly cracked open, and a bald bird poked its little head out.
On New Year's Day, she immediately exclaimed in disgust, "So ugly."
The sparrow nodded in agreement: "It's really ugly."
Little Bird Jinjin: "..."
"Chu mi~"
It's just a newborn little bird right now, so of course it doesn't have any feathers yet.
"Little bald guy, can you speak bird language?" Yuan Dan saw that the little bird had been struggling to climb out of its egg for a long time, so he stretched out his wings to help it.
She flipped the little bird over.
Jin Jin: "..."
