It was snowing outside again at night. It was Chen Qiu's first time to spend the winter in Kyoto, and the heating in Qiuchenyuan was very hot.
It was freezing outside, but Ye Chen and Shen Qiu did not change into thick quilts.
When Ye Chen came out of the side room, Chen Qiu was leaning against the window looking at the snow outside. Ye Chen walked up and said, "What are you looking at? There's a chill on the window, be careful not to catch a cold."
Chen Qiu smiled and said, "At that time, I didn't think this glazed window was any good, but now I realize it's really good."
"I don't want to be cold in the middle of winter, I want to go out and see the snow. With windows like this, I can watch it even from inside the house."
Ye Chen ruffled Chen Qiu's hair, then touched Chen Qiu's lower abdomen and said, "Did he move a lot today?"
Shen Qiu shook his head and said, "Not bad. The most active time of the day is in the morning. Maybe I slept too much that day, so I became noisy at night."
Ye Chen lay at Shen Qiu's feet and put his head on Shen Qiu's belly, wanting to listen to the movements of the little guy inside, but as soon as he put it there, he was kicked. Ye Chen was stunned for a moment. Was he kicked by this little guy?
Shen Qiu felt the fetus moving, touched Ye Chen's face and said, "Did you get kicked? Does it hurt?"
Ye Chen said: "How strong can he be? It doesn't hurt. But I saw him kick your stomach so hard, did it hurt?"
Chen Qiu touched his stomach and said, "It doesn't hurt, but if I move too much, I'll feel a little nauseous. The last time I felt anxious was the first time, and it hasn't happened again since."
Ye Chen looked at the little foot that kept coming out from here and there, stretching Chen Qiu's belly this way and that way. He really wanted to pull it out and beat it up, but what could he do?
Ye Chen looked anxious, and then said fiercely: "Little guy, don't move. If you bully my wife again, I will beat you."
Shen Qiu was startled by him, then hit Ye Chen and said, "You scared him, and besides, you can't reach him even if you hit him now."
I don’t know if Ye Chen’s words really scared the little guy, or if the little guy understood what Ye Chen said, and was afraid that Chen Qiu would feel uncomfortable, so he really didn’t move much, and the occasional movement was very small.
Chen Qiu looked at Ye Chen with both anger and amusement.
After they fell asleep, Chen Qiu suddenly asked, "Don't you have something important to do before the New Year? Why haven't you been out lately?"
Ye Chen hugged Chen Qiu and said, "I'm waiting. There is a very important step that needs to be done by Master Chen, but he doesn't seem to have thought it through yet."
"But it will be soon. If I can't wait for him, I will do it myself."
Shen Qiu looked at Ye Chen and said, "Will it be dangerous?"
Ye Chen kissed Chen Qiu's forehead and said, "Don't worry, I will be very careful." That would be very dangerous.
Chen Qiu didn't ask any more questions. She snuggled in Ye Chen's arms, thinking about how to help him. But after thinking about it, it seemed that the only option was to stay at home.
I can't use force now, and going out will only cause trouble for him. At this critical moment, not causing trouble is the greatest help I can offer.
In the middle of the night, the wind outside was getting louder and louder, and suddenly someone knocked on the door.
Chen Qiu and Ye Chen woke up at once. Ye Chen asked in a deep voice, "Who?"
"Master, it's me, Black Hawk"
Ye Chen got out of bed, put on his clothes and went out. Jin'er had already opened the door for Black Hawk.
Ye Chen hurriedly said: "Close the door quickly and don't let the cold air in."
Black Hawk, dressed in black but without a cloak, shook off the snow and said, "Sir, Master Chen has moved!"
Ye Chen stood with his hands behind his back, curled his lips and said, "It's earlier than I expected. It's good that it's moving."
"Arrange it and have those people in the court help out. Make sure Yan Qinglian is forced into a dead end."
Black Hawk: "Yes, that subordinate has withdrawn."
Ye Chen nodded, and after Black Hawk came out, he closed the door. As soon as he left Qiuchen Courtyard, someone caught up with him.
Black Hawk stopped and looked. It turned out to be Xing'er. Xing'er was a reserved person, never showing her emotions. Black Hawk asked, "Miss Xing'er, what else can I do for you?"
Xing'er handed a black cloak to Black Hawk and said, "The snow is getting heavier. Take this. It's black and won't affect your nighttime hiding."
Black Hawk looked at the girl in front of him. He didn't know if it was because the night was too dark or what, but he couldn't see anything unusual on the girl's face.
Ever since Black Hawk followed Ye Chen, he has partnered with Xing'er on every mission. However, he really admires this little girl, who is calm, decisive and smart.
But why would you give yourself clothes as a gift? Is it out of concern for your friends or something else?
I can't blame myself for thinking too much. I have never experienced anything between men and women, so I really don't know how to deal with it. If I am too active, I am afraid of scaring the girl. If I am too cold, I am afraid that she will really ignore me.
Xing'er didn't know that Black Hawk had thought so much in this brief moment. She just held the cloak in her hand, and her hands were a little tired. This man was just staring at her. Did she want him to say something?
Xing'er called out tentatively, "Black Hawk?"
Black Hawk suddenly woke up, took the cloak from Xing'er's hand, and said, "Thank you, young lady."
Seeing Hei Xing pick it up, Xing Er smiled and said, "Nothing, I'll go back now. Take care."
Black Hawk is about twelve or thirteen years older than Xing'er, so he can tolerate Xing'er using you towards him.
Everything in Kyoto was within Ye Chen's plan, so it went smoothly.
It is midnight in a casino in Yangzhou, Jiangnan. There is no curfew in the Great Yin Kingdom, and this is the time when gamblers are most busy placing bets.
But this casino was deserted. I heard that a big shot had booked it out.
In the backyard of the casino, a group of people stood in the yard, and at the top stood a masked woman in black, holding a long sword.
He looked at the people below with cold eyes, and after a while he said, "The Great Yin Emperor has gone too far and left us with no way to survive. Two or three hundred people in Kyoto have been slaughtered. We want to avenge our brothers."
"Let's start from this Yangzhou City and make sure that the Great Yin Kingdom never has a peaceful day again."
When the people below heard this, they immediately became excited and raised their swords and shouted: "Return to Xia!"
"Summer"
"Summer"
This is not just the name of Fu Xia, but their belief. What they want is to restore the Great Xia Dynasty.
Fu Xia said to a little girl beside him, "Send a pigeon to the branch. If we take the lead, they will also move. Even if we can't defeat the Great Yin Kingdom, at least we can make them suffer from internal and external troubles."
The little girl tore open the cloth on a cage behind her, revealing dozens of carrier pigeons inside. She took a deep breath and slashed with a knife, and the cage broke apart. The pigeons flapped their wings and flew out.
But unexpectedly, the pigeons flapped a few times in the air and then fell down, each of them had a feather arrow stuck in it.
Before the people in the yard could react, a team of archers appeared on the roof.
