Chapter 318: Adding a pair of children, what else could one ask for?
It was clear that Mo Jinchuan had other intentions than what he said.
What he wanted to ask was not about the craft, but whether Song Yanxi wanted to know when he started to have feelings for her.
It is also a temptation.
He didn't believe that she had no feelings for him at all.
With her intelligence, she would not fail to see through the little tricks played by An Yi and An San, but she still chose to follow them at the risk of her life.
This only proves one thing.
She has him in her heart.
At least, he was different to her than to others.
Don't tell him about that doctor's benevolence, she treats everyone equally, even Lin Tingfeng who let her down. That's bullshit.
She was going for the life-saving medicine for the people, and saving people was just a side job.
Who the hell is Lin Tingfeng? Is he worthy of her risking her life to save him?
Feeling the burning gaze coming from above her head, Song Yanxi felt that the taste of the meat in her mouth seemed to have changed, with a hint of sourness.
She couldn't answer his question just now.
Just when she was getting anxious and thinking about how to get away with it, that burning gaze disappeared as if nothing had happened.
And Mo Jinchuan didn't ask anything.
The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became extremely subtle.
Song Yanxi soon became unable to sit still. She hurriedly ate the food in her hand and left the cave under the pretext of going out for some fresh air.
The cold wind blew in her face, calming the restlessness in her heart and making her slowly calm down.
She was really out of her mind. She had just felt an impulse for a moment and wanted to confess to His Royal Highness Prince Jin everything she had concealed.
Even she, who had witnessed all that, still found it unbelievable when she recalled it now.
If she really told him, even if he didn't think she was a monster, he would think she was crazy and wouldn't believe her.
If she were in his place, she would not believe such a ridiculous statement.
Listening to the unrhythmic but exceptionally beautiful ensemble of insects, Song Yanxi felt an unprecedented peace in her heart.
When everything has settled, find a remote mountain forest to settle down, enjoy the scenery in the forest at noon, and listen to the chirping of insects in the middle of the night, which is also the greatest happiness in the world.
If I could have the love of my life by my side and a pair of children, what more could I ask for?
But now it seems that even the simplest and most ordinary days are a luxury for her.
Song Yanxi sighed lightly and was about to return the same way, but suddenly heard a sharp eagle cry from above her head, soaring into the sky.
This sound...
Her expression changed immediately. She lifted up her skirt and ran towards the cave without any delay.
Fortunately, she didn't go far. She ran into the cave entrance in a few steps and said hurriedly to Mo Jinchuan who was drinking water, "There are eagles patrolling nearby from the Liang people. I'm afraid this place is not safe.
Wait another half hour, and once it gets dark we'll find a way to get down the mountain."
Rather than being trapped in the mountains and waiting to die, it is better to give it a try. Who knows, there may be a way out ahead.
Seeing that Mo Jinchuan didn't say anything but looked at her with a complicated expression, Song Yanxi frowned and explained, "It takes half an hour to get to the water source from here, and we have to pass through an open area. It's very easy to be discovered when going back and forth to get water. It's too risky to stay here.
Even if the prince's Qinggong is unmatched, we are running low on food, and the noise we make from hunting will surely be heard by the animals."
It is impossible that His Royal Highness Prince Jin, who has experienced many battles, does not know these simple truths.
unless……
Song Yanxi suddenly thought of something and looked down, only to find that she had not let go of the hand that was holding the hem of her skirt in her haste.
So, she just said this to His Royal Highness Prince Jin while lifting her skirt with both hands?
Even in order to avoid aggravating the injuries on her legs caused by riding, she put on a pair of thick winter pants over her shorts when leaving the city, wrapping herself tightly so that nothing could be seen.
But for her to act like this, this is... too presumptuous!
Song Yanxi felt her face burning. She quickly dropped her skirt and turned around. She was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
How could she be so scared by an eagle?
It's really embarrassing for us as children of the Yan family.
There was a rustling sound behind him, and then Mo Jinchuan's gentle voice rang out, "Even if you don't have much appetite, eat more. The mountain is very cold, especially at night. It will be difficult to leave alive without enough food."
Song Yanxi turned around and found that the stone she had just sat on was covered with a piece of oil paper, with sliced chicken neatly placed on it.
His knife skills are unparalleled.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like it was made by a restaurant chef.
Although it was not the first time that Song Yanxi had seen Mo Jinchuan's craftsmanship, she was inevitably shocked.
Although the north is bitterly cold and the conditions are far inferior to those in the capital, there are chefs in various parts of the army who are responsible for three meals a day.
At worst, there are An Yi and the others to serve him. There is no need for him, a prince and general, to cook every meal himself.
Besides, he is busy training soldiers and handling military affairs during the day, so where does he get so much free time?
Such exquisite knife skills are not achieved in a day.
For some reason, Song Yanxi suddenly recalled what the small group had said about Wen Qi's cruelty and inhumanity when they passed by.
How did he deal with that beauty at that time?
It was like skinning a person alive and then chopping him into pieces to make barbecue.
Thinking of the details, Song Yanxi's face turned pale and she instantly lost her appetite.
But when she thought of the howling cold wind outside the cave and her body that was numb from the cold when she rushed here last night, she couldn't help but suppress the nausea in her heart and walked forward with difficulty.
At the same time, I couldn't help but comfort myself in my heart.
She still has something to eat now, but many people living in the north who have suffered from war have no food to eat.
That embarrassed look seemed to indicate that he was going to die bravely.
Seeing the clues from Song Yanxi's expression, Mo Jinchuan chuckled and said helplessly: "I have killed many people, but they were all killed when the two armies fought on the battlefield. They were not innocent.
Besides, I don't have a penchant for torturing others for fun."
Having her thoughts exposed, Song Yanxi smiled awkwardly and praised, "Your Highness's knife skills are very good."
Mo Jinchuan lowered his head to wipe the dagger in his hand, and said in a light tone: "I have been trapped in the mansion for the past two years and have nothing to do. In my spare time, I would carve some small things out of wood to kill time."
He spoke lightly, but Song Yanxi could hear endless sadness.
From being a victorious general praised by everyone, he suddenly becomes a disabled person who has to rely on a wheelchair to get around. The huge gap is enough to completely break a person from the inside out.
Not to mention that he was born into a royal family and was surrounded by wolves, waiting for him to make a mistake so that they could rush over and eat up all his flesh and blood.
Even though he handed over his military power early on and stayed indoors, he was still regarded as a thorn in the side by the likes of Prince An and Prince Ning, who were eager to get rid of him as soon as possible.
Even the eldest princess, who was rumored to love him like her own son, had ulterior motives.
If he were a little dumber and couldn't guess the dirty thoughts beneath the surface of affection, he wouldn't be hurt by it.
But if he was really so stupid, Mo Jinchuan would have disappeared from this world long ago.
As if noticing Song Yanxi's distressed look, Mo Jinchuan suddenly looked up, a smile in his dark eyes, "My craftsmanship is not very good. When you return to the palace one day and see those wood carvings, please don't think my carvings are ugly."
