Chapter 76 Who Eats Pig's Trotters Early in the Morning



Bai Xi crossed his arms, smiled, and said:

"Today is a good day, don't talk about death, it's bad luck!

Go and wake up the princess!"

Si Jinxing was awakened by Lu Zhu's knocking on the door. In a daze, he reached out and touched to the right.

Empty, no one?

She woke up instantly and didn't know when the man left.

Yan Fei was still lying in the treatment room. Qing Chan went to Hengzhou and had not returned yet.

Luzhu was busy running around, anxiously helping Si Jinxing to dress up, and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Si Jinxing found it funny and was about to ask her something when she heard Bai Xi's voice coming from outside the courtyard: "The master is here and is waiting for the princess outside the mansion."

Only then did Si Jinxing understand why Lu Zhu was so anxious just now.

When she and her servant walked outside the mansion, they saw a four-wheel drive carriage waiting there.

The carriage truly matched the character of its owner.

I saw four dark horses snorting, pulling a carriage made of red sandalwood and heavily carved behind them.

The four corners of the carriage were inlaid with four huge blue gems, and the windows on both sides were also inlaid with gold and gems. Inside, there were exquisite light blue gauze curtains. On the front of the carriage hung an ink-colored sign with a single word written on it: Ink.

Who in Jianzhou City doesn't know that this four-wheel drive chariot with the ink-lettered sign is the vehicle of the current King Mo Ying?

Qi Moli was sitting in the carriage. Seeing that the young woman had clearly walked to the side of the carriage but had not yet come in, he said anxiously:

"What are you still standing there for? Come up quickly and I'll take you to breakfast."

Si Jinxing then withdrew his gaze and got on the carriage. Well, this gentleman, I'm afraid he is just hungry?

She got on the carriage and glared at the man, but he pulled her to his side.

Seeing this, Luzhu hurriedly closed the carriage door and sat on the outer board.

"What are you going to do with that girl of yours?" Qi Moli held the little girl in his arms with one hand, poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to her with the other hand, and asked.

Si Jinxing took the hot tea and held it in her hand, saying:

"I still want to give her another chance. After all, she's been with me for so long, and she was badly injured yesterday to save me..."

Qi Moli looked at his little girl. To outsiders, she seemed to be hard-hearted and unkind. She was not close to her sisters and was not filial to her parents.

But, in fact, he is the one who knows how to be grateful the most.

He patted her thin shoulders and couldn't help but admonish her:

"Give her a chance, but you can't be careless. Maybe yesterday was just a torture for you."

Si Jinxing nodded. She had thought of everything he said and was just waiting for Yan Fei to wake up before making a judgment.

She didn't want to continue discussing this matter, so she turned to look at the man beside her and asked:

"Have you finished your business in the camp? Are you going back today?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Mo Yun in front of her say:

"Master, we're here."

She got off the carriage and the man held her hand.

Si Jinxing had a smile on her lips. The way they held hands looked very much like a couple in love in later generations.

She looked up and saw an octagonal pavilion in front of her. There was a black plaque with yellow characters that read: Elegant Residence by the Waterside!

Walk around the screen wall and go inside, and you will see a clear pond with gurgling water.

Around the pool, which is lined with strange rocks, exotic flowers and plants bloom around the water, and butterflies dance gracefully.

On the clear pond, there is a winding black stone path. The clear lotus in the pond is in full bloom at this time. From time to time, a few happy fish jump out from between the leaves, splashing out a few clusters of water.

On the north side of Qingchi is a two-story building with various private rooms on the east and west sides, and corridors outside the private rooms.

The quiet melody came from an unknown room, adding a touch of elegance to this elegant waterside residence.

Si Jinxing stood on the stone road, with scenery everywhere she looked. She had no idea that there was such a quiet place in Jianzhou.

She secretly thought that the food in this place must be expensive!

A man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who looked to be in his forties, came with a few waiters and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Master."

Only then did Si Jinxing realize that this elegant waterside residence was actually the private property of the guy next to her?

A few people came to a private room on the second floor, and the waiter served more than a dozen dishes in succession.

Si Jinxing touched her forehead. Who would eat so many dishes so early in the morning? Could it be that they were their own property? Wouldn't they feel bad eating them?

As she was thinking about it, she saw Qi Moli push a plate of braised pig's trotters in sauce over to her.

"I heard you like pig's trotters very much. Try it."

Si Jinxing originally wanted to say something to that guy for eating such greasy food so early in the morning.

But when he saw that the pig's trotters were stewed till soft and tender, wrapped in rich and fragrant juice and emitting bursts of aroma, he swallowed back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

I have to say that the food cooked by the chef of Shuixie Yaju is really good. Si Jinxing couldn't stop eating.

Qi Moli smiled silently at the young woman, occasionally picking up some food for her with his chopsticks.

Si Jinxing sensed something strange, put down his chopsticks, and asked, "What happened to you? I can see something is hidden in your eyes."

Qi Moli had never expected that the little girl in front of him would observe so carefully. He shook his head and laughed:

"It's all military affairs. The archers' defense is too poor. They are no match for the Hanlan cavalry archers. But I'm already thinking of a way. It's okay."

Si Jinxing wiped the corner of her mouth and walked to the window. Only then did she see that there was actually a lake behind this elegant waterside residence!

The breeze blew by, making her feel refreshed instantly.

The surface of the lake was rippling, creating layers of ripples.

She turned around and smiled, then said to the person opposite:

"Qi Moli, I will help you solve this problem."

Qi Moli turned his head and saw a beam of light passing across the young girl's smooth face. Her bright smile was like the morning sun, full of vitality.

He smiled, walked to the window, took her hand, and said, "What do you think, Princess?"

"Come to me after noon and I'll show you something." Si Jinxing shook his hand and smiled.

Qi Moli didn't know what she was talking about, but still agreed and said:

"Very well, I will come to you this afternoon. Now, Princess, please return home to receive your reward after having eaten and drunk your fill."

"Come and receive the reward?" Si Jinxing turned her head to look at the man, but was always attracted by the red love mole at the corner of his eye.

Beauty mole, that’s probably what it means, right?

The carriage drove all the way to the gate of General Zhenyuan's mansion. Si Jinxing still couldn't find out what the reward was, so she had to give up. She was so angry that she didn't even say goodbye to Qi Moli before entering the mansion.

But before she reached Suihua Garden, she heard a little maid calling the Second Young Lady from behind.

Si Jinxing paused and looked back, only to see the little girl running towards him breathlessly, anxiously saying:

"Second Miss, please go to Pear Blossom Garden quickly. Madam has just hanged herself with a white silk scarf! The old lady wants you to go."
