Chapter 141 (4,000 words) Xiao Yizhen is only...
The clear ringing of the bell echoed melodiously throughout the campus. Many children walked in groups, and the corridors were bustling with noise, like the chirping of cicadas in summer.
In the bright light, Xuan Yizheng looked at Xiao Yinxing approaching with sparkling eyes, came back to his senses, and entered the cafeteria with her.
"Sister, do you want to eat?" Little Yin Xing held the big rice spoon and was eager to share.
"No, just eat it." Xuan Yizheng found that he did not feel hunger, cold or heat, as if he was just a lonely soul, relying entirely on Xiao Yinxing, the only one who could sense him.
Seeing this, little Yin Xing had to give up the idea and ate the rice, but his bright black eyes were always looking at the beautiful sister in costume. The food in the cafeteria became delicious!
Although I don’t know why this beautiful sister is willing to go to school and go home with me, it’s really nice to have someone to accompany me!
Xuan Yizhen didn't shy away from Xiao Yinxing's gaze. He met her distinct black and white eyes directly. They were like a fresh, flowing spring, making one's heart soften. With a slight movement of his fingertips, he raised his hand to smooth a few strands of soft black hair off her cheek. To distract himself, he asked, "Do you always go to school alone?"
Little Yin Xing's bright eyes darkened, and as he chewed his food with puffy cheeks, he replied sullenly, "Well, I don't know how to jump rope, and I'm not good at studying, so people don't often play with me."
"That's good too."
"ah?"
Xuan Yizhen looked at little Yin Xing's puzzled look, like a harmless little lamb, and explained with a slightly unnatural expression: "This way you won't be disturbed when talking to me, and others won't notice anything unusual."
After all, others can't see Xuan Yizheng, but they can see Xiao Yinxing's words and actions.
Anyone who sees someone talking to the air would probably find it strange.
Of course, Xuan Yizheng also had his own selfish motives. After all, little Yin Xing was not Yin Xing. She had no memory of him at all, so it was not an exaggeration to say that she was a stranger.
So if Xiao Yinxing doesn't want to stay with him, Xuan Yi really has no way to deal with it.
This world was too unfamiliar to Xuan Yizheng. The lights did not need to be lit by flames, the sounds came from machines, and there were even screens showing pictures in the classroom. He was really not used to it.
If Xuan Yizheng hadn't seen Xiao Yinxing, he would have lost his patience long ago and even become anxious and irritable.
Hearing this, little Yin Xing nodded, curved her eyebrows and replied in a childish voice: "Yes, the fact that my sister knows magic must be kept secret!"
Xuan Yizheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Yinxing had no doubt about what he said.
Fortunately, little Yin Xing was also very easy to deceive, otherwise an ordinary child would have been scared to tears if he was harassed by a stranger who could not be seen or touched by others.
However, when Xuan Yizheng saw Xiao Yinxing's academic ranking, he was speechless.
There were only thirty students in this classroom, and she was the last one.
As night fell and neon lights flickered, little Yin Xing went home dejectedly with his schoolbag on his back, not wanting to look at his dismal test paper at all.
Xuan Yizheng also felt Xiao Yinxing's loss, but her parents were busy with work and would not come home so early.
In the past, little Yin Xing would eat bread, do his homework by himself, and wash up and go to bed early.
The light was bright. Little Yin Xing was sitting at the desk, holding a pen with a sad face. He couldn't write a single word. His thick eyelashes fluttered and his eyes drooped, looking pitiful, as if he was about to cry.
Xuan Yizhen pursed his lips, glanced at the math test on the table, and said softly, "These are actually not difficult. Why don't I teach you?"
"But I'm stupid, and Mom used to get so mad at me that she lost her temper."
"It's okay, I'll never be mad at you."
The lights were dim, and the windows reflected colorful light. Xuan Yizheng answered softly, looking at little Yin Xing who was trying hard to understand, he raised his hand and couldn't help but touch her little head gently, as if touching a precious treasure.
Xuan Yizheng suddenly understood why Yin Xing treated the little girl differently. It was probably because he was soft-hearted.
Now that I think about it, Xuan Yizheng doesn’t really dislike children. If it’s about teaching little Yin Xing, he would be happy to spend the time.
At night, Xuan Yizheng explained the test questions to Xiao Yinxing over and over again, very patiently.
If Yin Xing saw such a quiet scene, he would probably doubt his eyes.
After all, Xuan Yizheng would never be so gentle and patient with any child. She would just ignore them, not to mention teaching them personally, she wouldn't even say a few words.
However, at this moment, Yin Xing in another time and space obviously had no time to think about Xuan Yizheng.
Because the situation he and Xiao Yizheng were facing was obviously more dangerous.
In the long night, inside the palace, in the silence, the sound of fighting suddenly rang out, like a violent storm, catching everyone off guard.
For a moment, Yin Xing thought he was dreaming.
But when he saw the Wanqi Palace Guards, armed with sharp blades, being accurately shot in the head by arrows, and the palace maids dying miserably, with blood splattering everywhere, even though Yin Xing was a ghost, he still didn't dare to move!
Jiang Yun once heard that there was a plague in the palace, causing countless deaths and injuries, and it was very secretive.
Unexpectedly, there would be such a bloody scene. In the middle of the night, Yin Xing discovered that the Dog Emperor was really cruel!
However, Xiao Yizheng didn't pay much attention to it, or perhaps she didn't care about it at all.
So it was Yin Xing who saw the falling divine bird, the arrow piercing her eye, blood dripping down her feathers, and hurriedly said, "Let's save it."
This divine bird must be Queen Wanqi's cry for help to the Wanqi family. If it dies, perhaps even little Yizheng will not be able to survive the crisis.
The Dog Emperor was able to carry out a sneak attack and poisoning, so it was obvious that he would not care about the relationship between father and daughter, and it was very likely that he would go all out.
After all, without the power of the Wanqi family to rely on, both Xuan Yizheng and Queen Wanqi would most likely be silenced. The dog emperor wants to wipe out the entire family!
Xiao Yizheng didn't respond, but stepped closer to the divine bird, raised his hand to hold it, and his eyes fell on the wound on its eye. It was obvious that it would not live long.
However, Xiao Yizheng finally took it back to his residence, after all, the phantom was very noisy.
Yin Xing was not as calm as Xiao Yizhen. He looked around, afraid that he would be discovered.
I just came out to enjoy the breeze and the moon, but who knew I would have such bad luck!
He had a dreamless night. When dawn broke, Yin Xing watched the palace maids who were replaced in the palace come in to serve the meal. He felt anxious but helpless.
After all, this is a past history that was destined long ago. I can only watch it happen and it is obviously impossible to change it.
In this time and space, only Xiao Yizheng can communicate with himself. Others cannot see him. The incident happened too suddenly, and there was no way to remind him to be on guard against the Dog Emperor.
The only thing to be thankful for was that the divine bird was not dead. It lay dying in the box, barely able to drink rice porridge to recuperate.
Xiao Yizheng didn't feel any more uneasy, perhaps it was because she couldn't perceive everything.
At this time, Yin Xing was actually glad that Xiao Yi was really sick, which allowed her to have some peace and quiet.
At least it can prevent her from suffering further mental harm. Otherwise, a normal child would probably become mentally abnormal if he knew his parents were killing each other.
However, the chaos in the palace did not last long. The name of plague was used to cover up all casualties, and the corpses were burned. The dog emperor was very good at covering up his crimes.
However, Yin Xing discovered that the female official who came to check the drug poison in Xiao Yizheng's body every day had not appeared since the chaos that night.
It seems that all of Queen Wanqi's close associates have been killed, so they can only rely on the divine bird to inform the elders of the Wanqi family.
All the palace maids in the palace became unfamiliar faces, which shows that the emperor acted meticulously and even took strict precautions against a sick little princess.
But Yin Xing knew that the divine bird must be released as soon as possible, so he counted the time when the palace maids changed shifts every day, looking for an opportunity.
Only if the Wanqi family realizes that something is wrong, Xiao Yizheng and Queen Wanqi will have a chance to survive, otherwise the dog emperor may really succeed in his conspiracy.
Finally, on a dark and windy night, Yin Xing asked Xiao Yizheng to take the divine bird to the palace attic.
In the darkness, the sound of flapping wings was not very obvious. The divine bird took off slowly, and then arrows were shot across. It was obvious that someone was waiting for it at any time.
In less than three minutes, Yin Xing watched the divine bird dangerously leave in shock, cold sweat oozing from his back, and it took a long time for his heart to calm down.
The defense of the palace was more strict than Yin Xing had imagined. These archers had never been seen before, and they were hiding so deeply!
Little Yizhen looked at the torchlight wandering around the palace with an indifferent expression and said, "Something happened to the Queen Mother."
Yin Xing looked at Xiao Yizhen in surprise, almost thinking she had returned to normal. He asked tentatively, "How did you know?"
"Because there used to be Wanqi secret guards there."
"Oh, don't worry, your mother will be fine."
Empress Wanqi should be mentally ill and under house arrest now, but she has not yet reached the end of her rope.
Of course, Yin Xing did not think that the dog emperor was merciful, and it was very likely that he had other intentions.
Xiao Yizhen tilted his head to look at the distorted black shadow in front of him and said calmly: "You seem a little stupid."
All the members of the Wanqi family died. There was only one possibility, that is, the queen mother was in danger of her life and was no longer able to give orders.
Hearing this, Yin Xing fell silent. He didn't expect that she would make him so confused with just one sentence.
Well, how should I put it, he is indeed the childhood version of Xuan Yizhen.
Even though he looks like a small child, his IQ is not low at all.
It's not the kind of baby that would cry loudly because it's worried that something happened to its mother. It's careless.
The night wind blew outside the window, and dark clouds blocked the bright moon. Yin Xing awkwardly turned away and looked at the distant sky, hoping that someone from the Wanqi family would come to the rescue quickly.
However, there was no news for three whole months. If Yin Xing had not known the outcome in advance, he would have suspected that the divine bird had died along the way.
However, Xiao Yizhen didn't seem nervous at all. She took medicine, had acupuncture, and tended to the flowers and plants as usual every day.
The Dog Emperor seemed to have withdrawn the palace guards outside, and Xiao Yizheng could even go outside to bask in the sun without any restraint, as if the fight that night was just an illusion.
In the afternoon, Yin Xing accompanied Xiao Yizhen out, looking around as if he had turned into 007, always worried about hidden arrows.
When passing through a long corridor, he did not encounter any sneak attacks, but instead saw the eldest princess arrogantly punishing the palace maids.
After not seeing her for three months, Yin Xing felt a little unfamiliar with the eldest princess. Although she looked young, her behavior had changed.
"If you don't lick up these spilled cakes, I will cut off your tongue today and make you eat it."
“Yes, yes!”
Yin Xing looked at the pastries on the ground that were crushed into powder by the eldest princess's shoes. She was simply treating the palace maids like dogs and bullying them.
Xiao Yizheng didn't react much, and continued walking through the palace corridor as if he didn't see it.
But the eldest princess had already stepped forward, her expression showing no sign of shyness as usual, and she said arrogantly and sarcastically, "Queen Wanqi is seriously ill and cannot see anyone. You will be pitiful from now on."
Xiao Yizheng didn't say anything, and didn't even look at the eldest princess, but planned to continue leaving the palace corridor.
But at this time, Xiao Yizhen's arm was grabbed tightly by the eldest princess. Yin Xing became nervous and thought to himself that a fight might break out.
"You always act indifferent and condescending. Are you a mute?" The eldest princess said sarcastically with disgust, and waved the knife in her hand closer, full of coercion.
Now Empress Wanqi is seriously ill and in a coma, and her life or death is uncertain. The frail Princess Zhanghua has no one to rely on, and she will undoubtedly die in the palace in the future.
This is a good opportunity for her to experience the pain of being tortured by her mother for many years.
Seeing this, Yin Xing raised his hand to push the princess away, but he couldn't touch her at all. He said angrily, "Is there something wrong with her?"
The palace maids who were accompanying her did not make any move, and some even took the initiative to retreat and avoid the situation, including the maid who was being bullied.
The current palace situation has changed dramatically. With Empress Wanqi's illness, things in the deep palace of the previous dynasty are undergoing drastic changes, and no one can fail to see the situation.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Yin Xing advised Xiao Yizheng: "Why don't you say something?"
Each of these princesses is cruel and ruthless, and the eldest princess even raises a man-eating alligator. If you're not careful, she might really take action.
But Xiao Yizhen didn't react much. He looked at the eldest princess calmly with his eyes, and said slowly, "Eunuch Cao is here."
After the words fell, the eldest princess panicked and put away her knife. She tilted her head and really saw the eunuch beside her father. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, you wait and see what happens next!"
Now that he is finally free from the suppression of Queen Wanqi, there will be plenty of opportunities to take revenge on Xuan Yizheng in the future.
But if my father knew about this, it would probably be very troublesome.
It seems that I still need to find a good way to torture Xuan Yizheng as quietly as possible.
Yin Xing noticed the eldest princess' panic and breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his hand and held Xiao Yizhen's hand, thinking that she was a little too bold.
That's a knife that can hurt people. If it accidentally disfigures him, Yin Xing will be heartbroken.
Thinking of this, Yin Xing looked at the departing princess unhappily. He was surprised to find that her hands were not wearing armor and muttered, "She's so mean. Let's take a detour next time."
He is so vicious and cruel at such a young age, no wonder he can do so many evil things in the future.
Since you can't win, of course you have to run away first. Who would be stupid enough to wait to be beaten?
"No, I have to wait for her next time." Xiao Yizhen took back her hand awkwardly, feeling that the illusion was too warm and very strange.
This phantom always likes to make some movements. Although Xiao Yizheng has often seen illusions of black waves like tides or black snakes with sharp fangs before, those would bring pain.
But this phantom is different, she brings warmth.
The words were spoken casually, as if he had no idea that they were common threats.
Yin Xing was dumbfounded when he heard this. Looking at Xiao Yizhen, who had a calm and cold expression, he suddenly felt that she had no human emotions at all. This was not a good thing!
The eldest princess even threatened him with a knife in front of him, but little Yizheng thought she was just saying hello and wasn't afraid at all.
It seems that I need to find an opportunity to give Xiao Yizheng urgent training in human expression analysis.
Joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, these common expressions, even if you don’t understand them, you have to recognize and identify them, otherwise Xiao Yizheng will definitely be hurt.
But Yin Xing didn't know that little Xuan Yizhen, although he didn't understand the changes in emotions, was not stupid enough to not be able to distinguish threats.
As for who will be hurt in the end, it is still uncertain.
