This time we are not walking on the ground, but on the roof!
Carefully avoiding the guards and shadow guards around him, he landed lightly in a hidden corner behind the eaves of the roof.
He chose a similar position and pushed the tile end silently with two fingers, creating a gap.
Looking inside, there was a faint candlelight and Ling Sheng was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, looking lifeless!
Baili Feiyue frowned slightly, took out a thin paper tube-like object, and blew into it.
He waited for a while and then took advantage of the guards' laxity and flew in through the half-open window.
He walked to Ling Sheng's bed, grabbed Ling Sheng's wrist, and began to take his pulse.
After a moment, he checked the others.
Finally, he took out a pill and fed it to his father.
After putting his hand back into the quilt, Baili Feiyue left.
After leaving the General's Mansion, Chai Jin appeared quietly from the dark beside him, "Young Master."
"Let's go."
"Yes, young master." Chai Jin glanced at the general's mansion out of the corner of his eye and did not turn back.
However, Baili Feiyue did not return to the Regent's Palace immediately, but strolled on the street.
At night in Kyoto, because the foreign envoys from various countries will leave the capital in one or two days, and there is no curfew during this period. Although there is a smallpox epidemic, these people are completely unaware of it.
So it is much more lively now than usual.
Various vendors did not close their shops at all, as they all wanted to make a profit from the money.
Baili Feiyue gave Chai Jin a pill and asked him to take it. Although it was not 100% effective, it could reduce the chance of infection.
Chai Jin swallowed it immediately without asking any questions.
Then Baili Feiyue and Chai Jin chose to avoid crowded places as much as possible, but still walk on roads where they could vaguely see the streets.
At the same time, observe the people walking outside.
After walking for more than an hour, it was already very late at night, but the endless stream of people still did not stop.
They still gather in groups of three or five and it is very lively.
Baili Feiyue frowned slightly. This was not good.
These people are too excited...
When she passed by Zuixianju, the people there had put up a sign to close the door to visitors after receiving her notice. Now the door was still closed, and the guards, the shopkeepers, and the waiters were all in Zuixianju and did not come out to join in the excitement outside.
Baili Feiyue knocked on the door, and a voice came from inside, "Who?"
A waiter looked outside and saw Baili Feiyue, so he immediately opened the door and said respectfully, "Miss Ling San."
Baili Feiyue nodded and went in. There were many people in the hall.
Baili Feiyue directly took out a bottle of pills and said, "One pill for each person. It can slightly reduce the chance of infection."
Those people immediately distributed the items, and the shopkeeper stepped forward and only glanced at Chai Jin, who was silent behind Baili Feiyue, before looking away. He did not avoid him when speaking.
After all, the people brought here by our master must be absolutely trustworthy.
"Master, is it really that serious?"
Baili Feiyue nodded, "It's much more serious than you think. Zuixianju will not be open for business for the time being. Restaurants are places where people come and go, and if there is an infection, they are often the first to be infected."
"yes."
After checking the health of everyone here and finding no signs of smallpox for the time being, Baili Feiyue left with the snacks prepared for her by the owner of Zuixianju.
When they were about to reach the Regent's Palace, the cakes in Baili Feiyue's hand were suddenly empty. Turning around, she saw a masked and black-robed man holding the cakes that he had taken from her.
But the place where he appeared was obviously returning to the Regent's Palace from outside.
"You're going out too?"
"What do you think?" the man said meaningfully.
Baili Feiyue glanced at Chai Jin standing over there, then shifted her gaze back to the man, "Hey, beautiful lady, you came to find me."
The man's eyes fell on her face and he smiled meaningfully.
Chai Jin's instinctive sense of danger made his scalp tingle.
If he didn't know who this person was, he wouldn't hurt the young master. He almost couldn't control himself and rushed forward.
Baili Feiyue took out another piece of cake from the cake box and said, "Here you go."
However, Changsun Wuji did not take the cake she handed over, but directly took her cake box and went into the mansion.
Baili Feiyue shrugged and followed in.
Chai Jin naturally followed.
At this moment, in the shadow of a big tree beside the wall of the palace, Xiangyang's baby face was wrinkled.
The young master is still the young master!
He is different!
The young master brought one of his subordinates here to secretly observe what was going on between the master and Miss Ling San!
This child is only five years old!
Isn’t it too early to worry about these things?
Where did he learn all this!
There is no teacher or anyone else in this mansion who dares to say or teach these things in front of a five-year-old boy!
Although Baili Feiyue followed him to the Regent's Palace, she was not sick or injured, so of course she lived alone. She chose the courtyard closest to her baby.
Because it was late at night, I didn't disturb my baby's sleep.
When she returned to her residence, she first asked someone to arrange for Chai Jin, and the maidservant who served her helped her wash and dress with great respect.
Everything was done, Baili Feiyue lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
Although I have moved my nest before, this time it was somewhat different.
She thought something might happen to her, but when she woke up that morning, nothing happened.
The next day.
The official of the palace came to see him in person, "Miss Ling San, Miss Ling Ba is outside the palace and wants to see you. She said she has sent your maidservant, Huanhua, to you."
Baili Feiyue was drinking porridge with her son.
Hearing this, he laughed and said, "Let her wait for me in the living room."
"yes."
After the housekeeper left, Baili Feiyue looked at Chai Jin, who was standing aside and almost treated him as a background. She scanned him up and down and said, "Why do I dislike your beard so much? Go down and shave it."
Chai Jin started growing a beard when he was in his teens. Over the past ten years, he has been growing a beard that only exposes his eyes and covers almost half of his face.
When I heard this, I didn't react for a long time.
But originally the reason for growing a beard was just... the young master said it didn't look good, so naturally he had to shave it off.
Chai Jin went out to shave, and when he came back, Baili Feiyue and Changsun Qing had just finished their meal.
Baili Feiyue raised his head and sighed in his heart.
She is tall, but has a beautiful face!
A man in his thirties showing a face like this, looking mature and good-looking, is absolutely the most popular among young girls.
Seeing her staring at his face, Chai Jin felt so uncomfortable that his neck turned red.
Baili Feiyue stood up, holding Changsun Qing's hand, "Baby, you go to class first. I'll go take care of something."
"Okay!" The little kid was very well-behaved and went to the teacher for class.
Baili Feiyue's heart melted when she saw it.
Then he said to Chai Jin, "Come with me."
Chai Jin was stunned again.
The young master is obviously going to meet the eighth young lady...
For some reason, without the beard covering his face, he looked awkward, as if he was not wearing any clothes.
When Baili Feiyue went to the living room, Ling Xueer didn't even look at Chai Jin behind her.
After all, Yinghua was an experienced person. Although what happened yesterday, she remained calm. She believed that the young lady would make arrangements for her and let her serve her.
"Miss."
"It's just right that Eighth Sister sent you here. If she didn't send you here, I would have sent someone to the General's Mansion to pick you up." His eyes turned, "Eighth Sister, send Yinghuan to me. I will send someone to you too."
He looked at Chai Jin and said, "Chai Jin, from now on, you will follow Eighth Sister and protect her like you protected me."
Ling Xueer and Chai Jin were both stunned by this sudden statement.
Ling Xueer then looked at Chai Jin, and as she did so, her hands under her sleeves clenched unconsciously.
Chai Jin inexplicably avoided her sight and said to Baili Feiyue, "Young Master, your subordinate..."
"This is an order."
"yes."
"Okay, Eighth Sister, I won't keep you here anymore."
Ling Xueer stood up and looked at Baili Feiyue with complicated eyes.
He nodded and left, and Chai Jin followed with gritted teeth.
After the servant led them away, Yinghua said, "Miss, the general went to the Ministry of War early this morning to handle official business. He brought at least three months' worth of clothes."
