Chapter 117 The Saker Falcon is Discovered
After an hour of busy work, Lin Baoer looked at the chicken, duck, fish and many cooked foods on the ground and couldn't help but feel a headache.
Why doesn't Xiaoqing eat anything ?
Finally, Lin Baoer decided to take out her trump card.
She dangled a bunch of grapes in front of the green snake and tempted, "Xiaoqing, do you want to eat this?"
Xiaoqing tilted her head to look at the grapes, and under Lin Baoer's expectant eyes, she finally opened her mouth.
Great!
Lin Baoer happily peeled several of them for it.
But when she ate the fifth one, she encountered a bottleneck.
Xiaoqing was unwilling to open her mouth again.
This made Lin Baoer frustrated.
"You don't even eat grapes, what do you want to eat!" She was a little annoyed, and a little irritated in her heart.
Perhaps sensing her emotions, the green snake paused, then followed Lin Baoer's wrist and wrapped around her arm. The snake head rubbed against her body aggrievedly, looking listless.
Seeing this, Lin Baoer couldn't help but let out the breath of anger she had been holding in her heart.
"I really can't do anything about you."
If the perspective was changed, if someone kept feeding her things she didn't like to eat, she would probably feel aggrieved as well.
In the end, Lin Baoer decided to take Xiaoqing out of the house.
Since there was nothing it liked to eat in the house, there must be something outside, right?
But before leaving the house, Lin Baoer went to find Qin Huyuan first.
The profound lessons from the previous few times made her aware of the crisis. If she went to some remote places, she would always have to bring a few more people with her, otherwise if she was assassinated again and her life was in danger, who would she cry to?
After Guard Qin knew her purpose, he naturally agreed. Although his duty was to guard the house, he would not refuse if his master needed his protection occasionally.
This was originally one of his duties, and the person who came was Lin Baoer.
Ever since Lin Baoer gave him the sword, Guard Qin had always had complicated feelings towards her.
He couldn't figure out why this little person had so many bad ideas, and could play a man around and capture his heart at the same time.
But since he couldn't figure it out, he refused to think about it anymore.
Anyway, this little person is more important to him than anyone else in the mansion, and all he has to do is protect her.
"Guardian Qin, do you know where in the city Xiaoqing can go?"
Lin Baoer looked up and asked him outside the mansion, and emphasized: "It would be best if it can eat."
Guardian Qin pondered for a while, and then took Lin Baoer to a place.
Half an hour later, the two people and the snake arrived at a manor.
"This manor belongs to the Lin family. It's been abandoned because of its remote location and frequent lack of care."
Guardian Qin took Lin Baoer to a dense forest inside the manor. "We were going to cut down the forest and plant bamboo, but the plan changed and it was shelved. It was never completed. After a long time, it became overgrown with weeds. Since this land is close to the mountains, many living creatures have fled here to live."
"But they are all small, common things. There are no large birds of prey or beasts."
Looking around, the dense forest was endless, yet not eerie. Except for being too desolate, everything about it was to Lin Baoer's liking.
There is a lotus pond beside the dense forest. Although the water is turbid, she has seen many fish swimming in it, and there are also several lotus flowers standing brightly, untainted by the mud.
"Okay, this is it!" Lin Baoer clapped her hands with satisfaction, and then released Xiaoqing.
"Then can you go find food by yourself?" she asked.
The green snake nodded, spitting out its tongue and went into the dense forest.
Lin Baoer looked at this scene thoughtfully.
It seems that Xiaoqing also likes to eat game?
During the time when Xiaoqing was looking for food, Lin Baoer naturally would not be idle. After asking Qin Huyuan to find a fishing rod for her, she sat by the lotus pond and fished.
"Guardian Qin, I'm thirsty."
"Guardian Qin, here's the bait! The bait is gone!"
"Guardian Qin, hurry up! There's a fish!"
"Guardian Qin..."
After an entire afternoon, Lin Baoer caught seven or eight fish and was so excited that she almost didn't want to go back.
If Guardian Qin hadn't sternly refused, she would have hesitated for a long time.
During this period, Xiaoqing also hunted and ate her fill. Only then did Lin Baoer realize that what Xiaoqing wanted to eat was frogs.
There were many wild frogs by the lotus pond, and they were all caught and eaten by the green snake, which ate until it turned its belly upside down.
When they returned to the Lin Mansion, it was already getting dark. After
listening to the report from the servants, Lin Ruqian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and put frogs on Xiaoqing's food list that night.
That night.
A mansion on the west side of Yanjing City.
The night was dark and endless. A figure sneakily threw the black bag in his hand across the courtyard wall and then left quickly.
"Did you deal with it?"
"Don't worry, I threw it over."
"The master has ordered that it must be dealt with cleanly. If it is discovered, you will be in danger!"
"Don't worry..."
In a remote alley, two people were talking quietly. After a while, another person threw a bag of money over, then turned around and left.
The next morning, when the sky was slightly bright, a team of soldiers hurried past on the street. The weapons in their hands scared the nearby early vendors and they dared not move. After they left, they whispered to each other about what happened.
The door of the Sun Mansion was suddenly pushed open, and the sound of chaos came from inside.
"The evidence is conclusive! Come! Take him away!"
"Sir! Sir! Did you misunderstanding something? We didn't do anything!"
"Hurry up, don't waste time, the emperor has ordered, take him away!"
This group of people came and went quickly, and soon they took the person away, leaving behind many people in Sun's mansion crying and gasping for breath.
…
Lin Baoer got up from the bed, yawned, and rubbed her sleepy eyes.
[Why did I dream about the eagle? ]
In the dream, the eagle became as big as a building, and it grabbed a lot of people in its mouth in a moment. She was so scared that she ran away, but she ran into the eagle's stomach, which woke her up.
There was no one around her, so Lin Baoer had to put on her clothes by herself.
But she didn't see Shen Xuelan until she finished her breakfast, and she couldn't help but wonder.
Could it be that someone came to visit her mother today?
"Qinglian, where is my mother?" She found Qinglian who had just entered Shangchunyuan and asked.
Qinglian's face was a little solemn, "Fourth Miss, something big has happened!"
Lin Baoer paused and raised her eyes suddenly, "What?!"
The tribute was stolen, and it was found that it was done by the Sun family. At this moment, the Minister of Revenue Sun Wei was detained in the palace. Ying Rushi led a team to thoroughly investigate the entire Sun family. Suspects were arrested and interrogated in the Dali Temple.
Lin Baoer recalled what Qinglian had just said, her face became more solemn, and her footsteps did not stop.
So the person who auctioned the Saker Falcon was from the Sun family?
