It is also late autumn, and the trees are slightly bare, and the old trees are gloomy.

Bypassing the white jade entrance of the Tiger Roaring Mountain River that glows pale blue at night, there are magnificent and solemn buildings in front of you.

Although there have been changes, with the situation of entering the mansion for the first time, Ji Yuluo knew that this was the office area of the Taiwei Mansion through the faint halo of lanterns.

Just as he was about to run deeper into the depths, he suddenly saw a faint torch moving on a hidden path on the side, thinking that it was a guard patrolling the night, and quickly dodged behind the entrance.

After the night patrol guards, they were trying to come out, but they heard a few dogs barking in an ensemble not far from the other direction.

The barking of dogs grew closer, followed by the sound of footsteps and the voice of Ngawang.

"Lin Da! New dancing girls are constantly entering this house, although this is not the center of the house, but you can't relax! ”

"Brother Wang, don't worry! There are dozens of pastoral dogs in the outer nights, and there are many more in the open and in the dark, and they will not travel to the pool! ”

Cut! This Xiahou night is really afraid of death! There are even guards and dogs patrolling! Ji Yuluo snorted disdainfully, that is, this sound, the dog barked suddenly, and came straight towards her.

She was so frightened that she couldn't think about it, and disappeared into the night in a flash.

Thinking that the Taiwei Mansion was heavily guarded, he changed his route and walked around the palace wall, intending to go deeper slowly.

Unconsciously came to the kitchen area, and through the lanterns hanging between the corridors of the pavilion, I saw a woman in a dress who was not wearing a dress suddenly walked out of the kitchen door.

The woman's hair was curled all over the back of her head, and a golden tassel with pearls was obliquely embellished, and she wore a brocade white jacquard nectar dress. In his right hand he held a small bamboo basket between his arms, the basket contained a little paper and incense candles, and in his hand he carried an iron rod more than one meter long that was twice as thick as a yam.

The woman closed the kitchen door and strode down the deeper path.

Katsura! Ji Yuluo really didn't expect Xiao Gui to be alive, she was surprised and delighted.

Stunned for a moment, chasing Xiao Gui away.

On the way, they met two teams of night guards and a team of courtyard guards, and when they saw that it was Xiao Gui, they didn't ask anything. Hold the torch and continue to follow the winding route.

In the secluded and quiet locust forest, the dead leaves are thick, and the cold wind swirls from time to time.

Xiao Gui lit the incense candles inserted into the ground and placed a few steamed buns. Then burn the paper one by one.

Ji Yuluo, who stepped on the snow without a trace and landed silently, stood quietly behind Xiao Gui, secretly guessing who Xiao Gui was burning paper money for?

The cold wind suddenly rose, the lotus blue dress fluttered, and the sparks flew in all directions. The forest became eerie and unsettled.

Xiao Gui suddenly felt bad, and reflexively turned his head.

Against the faint black background, a woman with green hair dancing motionless stood two meters away, and was instantly startled.

But he didn't panic, the iron rod was horizontal in front of his chest, and he didn't speak, he jumped up and smashed it into Ji Yuluo's head.

The momentum is even more ferocious than that of the execution ground, which shows that Xiao Gui's strength has increased a lot during this time.

The stick was on the head, and Ji Yuluo flashed to the side, avoiding the edge of the stick. Almost in one go, he leaned forward and reached out to grab the rod and tugged forward as he could.

This pull, Xiao Gui is facing forward, and he is even closer to Ji Yuluo.

Looking at each other closely, Ji Yuluo's eyes shone with a dreamy light, Xiao Gui gasped, and jumped back with a loose iron rod in his hand.

Xiao Gui pinched the tip of a stick in his hand, and asked coldly, "Who are you?" ”

Ji Yuluo didn't answer, and with a flick of her fingers, a golden silkworm blood needle flew towards Xiao Gui with a wisp of red light.

The needle is pointed to the neck of the small cinnamon. Her clothes fluttered, and the needles rebounded.

There was a sudden silence in the forest, and after a while, Xiao Gui abandoned the iron rod and knelt on the ground. "Master! You...... Still alive? ”

"Not dead yet! It's about the same as death! Ji Yuluo felt that Xiao Gui still remembered her, pulled the handkerchief on her face, stepped forward quickly, and helped Xiao Gui up.

Touching Xiao Gui's face with his bare hand, Xiao Gui grew strong and his face was perfect. But the skin is rough, and it can be seen that life is not good.

Recalling the scene of Xiao Gui in Heyuan desperately trying to save her regardless of her safety, her heart fluctuated, and she tearfully took Xiao Gui into her arms, and choked up: "Xiao Gui! I'm sorry! I didn't take good care of you and made you suffer! ”

"Master! Childe said that you will definitely die, I know you are fine......" Xiao Gui intermittently talked about the situation of being separated from Ji Yuluo.

Only then did Ji Yuluo know that she was rescued by Tianlou that day, and Xiahou finally remembered that she was a blood relative to Xiao Gui and spared Xiao Gui's life. took Katsura back to the house and locked him in the dungeon.

After being promoted to the rank of lieutenant, Xiahou was in a good mood at night, and his family affairs with the princess all depended on Xiahou Liu, thinking of this relationship, he went to the dungeon to ask Xiao Gui if he was willing to return to Zongzheng Mansion.

There is no father-daughter relationship with Xiahou Liu, there is only hatred, and Xiao Gui did not return to Zongzheng Mansion. Xiahou arranged for her to live in a deserted house behind the kitchen. The identity is between the master and the subordinate, and it is counted as a person with a special identity in the house.

Hearing this, Ji Yuluo smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that he is good to you!" ”

"He's good to me! But one after another, the dead were brought in, either by dismembering me and sending the meat to the kitchen, or by chopping up the meat and feeding it to the fish in the pond in the house. Xiao Gui wiped away her tears, "Does the master know?" One of the old men who was sent, I recognize, is Prime Minister Jiang Cheng's old butler...... The old man had entered the palace with the prime minister's wife. ”

Ji Yuluo suddenly understood why Xiao Gui came to this forest in the dead of night to burn paper money.

It turned out that his hands were full of blood, and he was restless at night and couldn't sleep.

"Old butler! What a kind person that is......" Ji Yuluo muttered to herself for a moment, supported Xiao Gui's arms, and said reproachfully: "Why didn't you run away with such a bloody thing?" ”

Xiao Gui lowered his eyelids, his face full of melancholy, "Even if I don't do it, someone will do it, except for a few people in this mansion who are authentic people, most of them are demons who kill people without blinking." And Qiulan and Qiuye can't speak, they need me to take care of them! They said they didn't want to go home, they wanted to do business. You have to have money to do business, so I'm short of money! ”

Xiao Gui brought a lot of gold with her when she left the palace, and she was not short of money! Ji Yuluo took Xiao Gui into her arms, "Xiao Gui! I know, you're waiting for me! ”

"People have to have a miss when they live, and my thoughts at that time were my aunt. She's dead, and it's just you! Xiao Gui laughed at himself, "Does the master know?" The prince has returned to the palace, and Xiahou Ye and Princess Tianxiang have also married! ”

The prince's return to the palace and Xiahou Ye's marriage to Princess Tianxiang were two things, and Ji Yuluo had already heard them on the way to the imperial city. But when she heard Xiao Gui say that Xiahou Ye and Princess Tianxiang became married, Ji Yuluo still felt so distressed.

"Xiao Zhao married into the Taiwei Mansion with the princess......"

At the mention of Xiao Zhao, Ji Yuluo immediately said nervously: "How is she?" Hibiscus and Bauhinia, aren't they with Xiao Zhao? ”

Xiao Gui bit his cheek, and then wept and said: "Listen to Xiao Zhao, Xiao Hibiscus and Bauhinia were killed by the princess as early as when they were in the palace!" (To be continued.) )
