Su Ning said: "It shouldn't be that the animals in Tushan are very docile, and the beasts won't be ...... in this area."

Qingtong said: "Sister Su Ning, if we don't look for it separately, it shouldn't fly too far."

"Okay, I'm sorry for you"

The two of them went their separate ways They each shouted Xiao Zi's name while looking for it Su Ning searched for a long time without success She was about to ask the nearby animals Qingtong's voice came from a distance:

"Sister Su Ning has found it"

Su Ning immediately heard the sound and she found Qingtong under a few bamboos He was looking up at the top with a suspicious face Su Ning also followed his line of sight

But between the thick green and deep green, a small gray hair ball was picking up the bamboo branch, and its little mouth pecked at the bamboo rice hanging on the branch one by one, and ate it happily

Qingtong said the doubts in Su Ning's heart: "What is it eating?"

Su Ning grew so big and had never seen Takeshi, she sneered, "I don't know ...... either."

"You ask your Yulang" Qingtong reminded Su Ning hurriedly picked up the Qianling Bagua Mirror and looked at Xiao Zi

Su Ning asked Yulang: "Yulang, do you know what seeds these are?"

Yulang then solved the mystery for them: "This is bamboo rice, bamboo rice is also called bamboo seed, that is, the seed of bamboo, and bamboo rarely blooms, because after the bamboo flower, the bamboo forest will die in pieces."

Su Ning saw that Xiao Zi was very happy to eat bamboo rice, and she couldn't help but sigh: "It turns out that Xiao Zi loves to eat such a rare food, and I don't know where to find it to eat in the future."

At this time, Yulang couldn't help but say more: "There is an ancient saying that the phoenix is not a sycamore, it is not a sycamore, it is not a bamboo, it is said that bamboo is the food of the phoenix."

Su Ning and Qingtong were shocked when they heard this: "Phoenix"

Qingtong asked bluntly: "Is this little guy a phoenix?"

Yulang replied cautiously: "Xiaoxian doesn't know either, Xiaoxian is just a legend......

Su Ning pondered Xiao Zi is indeed different from other birds Let's not say that I can't communicate with it Just because it doesn't eat or drink for a month but can still grow up This is amazing enough

Moreover, if it was just an ordinary bird, who would have gone to great lengths to hide it in the cave, and also set up a magic barrier to protect it, if it wasn't for his mistake, it would really be impossible to find Xiao Zi

In addition, it has now eaten the bamboo that is said to be eaten only by phoenixes, and there are various indications

Su Ning muttered: "Could it be that Xiao Zi is really a phoenix?"

At this time, Xiao Zi was finally full of food and drink It saw that Su Ning and Qingtong were below, and then pounced happily Su Ning reached out to catch it Xiao Zi continued to nest in her hand and rub nonsense

Qingtong couldn't help but lean close to Su Ning's ear at this time and reminded: "Sister Su Ning, it has just eaten enough, you be careful that it will be relieved in your hands later......"

Su Ning smiled awkwardly Xiao Zi screamed angrily at Qingtong when she heard it, and she was ready to rush over and peck him Qingtong hurriedly apologized:

"I'm sorry, I'm kidding......"

Xiao Zi actually made a sound similar to a cold snort It seems that it is really a small-minded bird that will repay It is estimated that it is not Qingtong who says this, but Bai Xian, who has been pecked by it a few times

Su Ning felt that it was time to teach it a lesson, it used to be born and ignorant, but now it is more than a month old, and it is so psychic that it should also understand some human truths

Su Ning lightly tapped the top of its head with her fingers, and then said in a serious tone:

"Xiao Zi Qingtong is just joking with you, don't be so fierce to him."

Xiao Zi didn't seem to expect that Su Ning would teach it a lesson, and was actually stunned, Su Ning then said:

"Also, in the future, you can't fly up and peck at others casually, if you accidentally peck at other people's eyes, it will cause them to lose their sight, whoever makes you angry, you just ignore him, but you can't hurt others first."

Xiao Zi squeaked aggrievedly It should be understood, Qingtong also excused it:

"Sister Su Ning, forget it, it's so small, I don't know anything."

"These principles should be taught from an early age" Su Ning has a very strong position

Xiao Zi seemed to be afraid that Su Ning would hate it, so she quickly squatted in her hand, and gently scraped it a few times with her small pointed mouth in her soft palm

Qingtong saw it and couldn't help but be amazed: "It seems that it understands it, it really comes down to one thing, Xiaozi really listens to Sister Su Ning's words......"

Su Ning remembered Yulang's words, and she immediately asked Xiao Zi: "By the way, Xiao Zi, are you really a phoenix?"

Xiao Zi listened to Su Ning's question, its little eyes blinked, and then continued to nest in her hands

Qingtong said: "Sister Su Ning, it's useless for you to ask it, I guess it won't know its life experience."

Su Ning thinks about it, and she herself is also an abandoned baby, although she has had special abilities since she was a child, but she also knows nothing about her own background

Su Ning sighed lightly and said to Qingtong: "I hope that when it grows up in the future, it can find its companions again."

Qingtong nodded and proposed: "Sister Su Ning, since Xiaozi loves to eat bamboo, why don't we pick some back."

"It's okay" Su Ning let Xiao Zi squat on her shoulder, she immediately flew up to pick the bamboo, and Qingtong also followed to help, and the two picked a bag of bamboo fruit, which was enough for Xiao Zi to eat for many days, and then returned to the palace

As soon as Su Ning returned to the room, the little palace maid who was in charge of taking care of her presented her with an invitation, which turned out to be Bai Xian's invitation to her

With Su Ning and Bai Xian's familiarity now, there is no need to avoid anything She took Xiao Zi to the appointment as scheduled

Bai Xian asked Su Ning to meet a water pavilion called "Ying Champs" When Su Ning came, Bai Xian, dressed in gorgeous clothes, was sitting at the round table, fiddling with the celadon wine cup on the table

"Third Highness" Su Ning blessed him Bai Xian beckoned her to sit down

The attendants all retreated, leaving only Bai Xian's personal servant Huan'er to wait outside the Ying Champs

Bai Xian exchanged a few words with Su Ning, mainly asking her what she was doing in the past two days Su Ning only briefly said that she and Qingtong went for a walk outside the palace, and did not mention Xiao Zi and Zhu Shi Because Xiao Zi's identity is just their conjecture And it is not possible to confirm that it is a phoenix So Su Ning does not plan to make a noise for the time being

Bai Xian chatted with her for a few words and cut to the point

"Su Ning, I asked you to come this time to tell you something," he looked solemn, and Su Ning immediately became engrossed

Bai Xian paused and told Su Ning word for word about Bai Guanhui sending him to investigate Bai Ye, and he said solemnly:

"I'm leaving this time, the return date is undecided, and before I come back, the imperial sister has to bother you to take care of it."

Bai Xian's implication was that he hoped that Su Ning could stay in Tu Mountain and wait for him, but he couldn't say bluntly, "You must not run away, you have to wait for me to come back" After all, he and Su Ning had not yet developed to that level of intimacy, and he pondered for most of the night last night before he thought of Fang Cai's words

Because Su Ning is kind-hearted and soft-hearted, please ask her to take care of Tu Shan's affairs, she will definitely not push

As expected, Su Ning was so entrusted by him, and immediately replied without hesitation:

"His Royal Highness is serious, it is also my honor to be able to serve Tu Shan and share the worries of the princess."

Although Bai Xian was happy to hear her answer, he always felt that after he and Su Ning returned to Tu Shan, the relationship became estranged again, but this was also helpless Su Ning's current identity in Tu Shan was General Yun Lu, and he was a courtier of Bai Guan, plus she was a human being, and there was always an insurmountable gap between him and her

Bai Xianxian put these stunned feelings aside, and he told Su Ning again: "Now my Tu Shan form is quite grim I heard the imperial sister say that the demon wolf has sent a lot of fine works Lurking inside and outside Tu Mountain, and even some courtiers in the clan have been bribed by them, so I need to keep the matter of going down the mountain to find the imperial brother secret this time, so as not to leak the news."

Su Ning understood this very much, and she also analyzed: "This matter should indeed be kept secret, and the demon wolf must not want the fox king to come back in order to rule Tu Mountain."

Bai Xian bowed his head and said: "So after I left, in order to hide people's eyes, the imperial sister will lie to the outside world, saying that I was infected with a strange disease when I went down the mountain last time, and I will recuperate in the palace behind closed doors, leaving only Huan'er and a few personal attendants to take care of them, and they will be tight-lipped about this matter."

Su Ning listened to Bai Xian's tone sinking slightly:

"But after all, paper can't hold the fire, if it's only ten or twenty days, it's okay to say, I'm worried that after a long time, it will still show its feet."

This is indeed a question, Su Ning thought about it and thought about it:

"Your Royal Highness, why don't I take a puppet to impersonate you?"

Bai Xian also had this intention, he said: "I think so too, can't your dolls be transformed into anyone's appearance?"

When he went down the mountain before, Su Ning used the puppet man to become his appearance in order to help Dingyuan Marquis, and deceived the mandrill sent by Qingtong to murder Dingyuan Marquis

Su Ning said: "It's a pity that the puppet can't speak, and the spiritual power can't be faked."

Bai Xian said: "It's okay, just pretending to be sick in bed, I shouldn't be able to wear it."

Su Ning immediately agreed with Bai Xian that after Bai Xian came down the mountain, he would let the puppet sleep in Bai Xian's bedroom and pretend to be him, of course, this matter should also be known to Bai Xian

Then Bai Xian reluctantly pulled her to say goodbye, and didn't let Su Ning go back until the sky had been collected and the gold wuxi fell

Two days later, Bai Xian led six guards and left Tu Shan unknowingly At the same time, the matter of the illness of the Third Highness spread far and wide The people in Tu Mountain were in turmoil Especially some girls in the boudoir After learning the news, they all cried so much that Bai Xian was the dream lover of most of the Tu Shan girls

And some ministers are also deeply worried about this The whereabouts of the fox king Bai Ye are still unknown Bai Xian is now the only male in the royal family and has a high level of spiritual power If he has any three long and two short The Tu Shan clan is equivalent to being abolished on one side
