Lingniang stood outside the house, saw a black shadow approaching, and did not immediately defend herself, but respectfully greeted her.

"General Fan." Ling Niang saluted the black shadow.

Fan Li was dressed in black, like Lingniang with a silent gesture, and then gently pushed the window, and saw that Xi Shi was sleeping peacefully, so he quietly closed the window, took Lingniang to a corner, and asked, "How is it?" ”

Lingniang frowned and whispered back: "Miss Xi Shi was very alert, and soon found out that it was the slave family who deliberately lured her to find Yin Thirteen, and also warned the slave family, and the slave family replied according to what the general told me, and persuaded Miss Xi Shi to poison Yin Thirteen, but when Yin Thirteen was about to eat poisonous osmanthus cake, Miss Xi Shi stopped her. Also said...... He also said......"

"What else to say." Fan Li asked in a deep voice.

Ling Niang looked at Fan Li's solemn expression and said weakly: "Miss Xi Shi said that Yin Shisan has been doubled and has forgiven him...... He also said that life and death are in the sky, and they are also in the hearts of the people. If the human heart is not dead, then it is not our turn to dominate the lives of others. ”

Fan Li gritted his teeth quietly and said, "People's hearts are immortal? He doesn't seem to have any remorse. ”

Ling Niang said again: "Yes, it seems that Yin Shisan really doesn't want to die." In the evening, Miss Xi Shi went to him again and fed him some food, and the communication between the two was to write on each other's hands, and the slave family did not know what they had said. ”

Fan Li took a deep breath and slowly spit it out.

After a long time, Fan Li said softly: "It seems that he can't stay." ”

Ling Niang replied decisively: "Ling Niang understands. ”

Fan Li nodded, and said to Lingniang with relief: "Thank you Lingniang for your help." Not long ago, I learned that the girl was killed by an adulterer before she fell into the dust. Now that the traitor has been dealt with by Zai, I don't know if Lingniang will blame Zai for making assertions. ”

When Ling Niang heard this, she instantly raised her head and looked at Fan Li, and said to Fan Li with shock, comfort and gratitude in her eyes: "How can you blame?" The slave family, the slave family wants to take revenge for more than a day or two, but their ability is limited, and now the general helps the slave family to avenge this great revenge, and the slave family is very grateful. ”

Fan Li smiled and returned: "Originally, I should have reported the girl's kindness to save Shi'er, but this is just a gesture." As long as the girl helps protect Xi Shi at home, she will definitely help the girl fulfill your long-cherished wish. ”

Ling Niang hurriedly returned: "The slave family swears to protect Miss Xi Shi to the death, please rest assured general." ”

Fan Li turned around, leaving Ling Niang with an unfathomable back, and said indifferently: "Then Yin Thirteen's affairs will be handed over to the girl." ”

Lingniang replied respectfully: "Yes." ”

Fan Li nodded, jumped directly over the wall with a light tiptoe, and disappeared into the night.

Before dawn on the second day, Xi Shi got up early in the morning, and even the guards and maids had not gotten up, so she ran to the kitchen to take out the egg cake she had hidden yesterday, poured a pot of sake and ran to Fenglin to find Yin Thirteen.

After finding the maple tree with ease, Xi Shi picked up the fallen leaves of the tree's roots, and only took out the cloak he left for Yin 13 yesterday from below, but did not find Yin 13 himself.

Did he change places? No, he'll tell himself if he changes places......

Xi Shi thought to himself that Yin Thirteen was probably hiding, so he looked for a few more places, but still didn't find where he was.

Frustrated, he returned to the old tree, and sat at the base of the tree watching the sky get brighter, thinking that he couldn't stay here any longer. So he wrapped the egg cake in his own handkerchief, hid it with a wine gourd in the pile of maple leaves under the big tree, and then hurried back.

After going back, Lingniang and the others hadn't gotten up yet, so she quietly took off her clothes and lay down for a while, pretending that she hadn't gotten up yet.

When the maid Ah Duo came to call her, she pretended to be sleepy-eyed, washed and ate obediently, and then went to practice with the other two sisters.

In the study class, Xi Shi was distracted, thinking about how to save Yin Thirteen.

Go and beg Fan Lang to let him go? That Fan Lang will probably be by himself......

Go and ask the king to forgive him? Then it's better to go to Fan Lang......

Ask Lingniang to take Yin Thirteen out? But Lingniang seems to be too assertive and doesn't dare to use it herself......

Let Sister Zheng Dan help me? No, you can't pull my sister into this troubled water......

Let Xi Cheng help himself? But what reason does he have to help himself, not to mention that he is still good with Fan Lang, and he will definitely not help......

Xi Shi suddenly felt that he was so isolated in the palace, and he didn't even have anyone who could help him, it was really miserable......

After thinking about it all morning, Xi Shi finally decided to ask Fan Li, tell him his thoughts, and if he didn't agree, he would think of other ways.

At the end of the practice, Lingniang came to pick up Xi Shi, and Xi Shi asked Zheng Dan and them to go back first, and took Lingniang to Fenglin by himself.

When I walked to the familiar tree, I saw that the fallen leaves at the root of the tree were scattered all over the ground, as if there were traces of a fight.

And his cloak was also thrown to the ground, and the acacia pattern on the cloak was torn and one piece was missing.

Xi Shi's heart was not good, and an ominous premonition came to her heart, she pounced on the ground and looked for the square handkerchief and wine jug she had buried early in the morning, but found that they were all gone.

"It seems that someone has come to bully Yin Gongzi again." Ling Niang said worriedly.

Xi Shi frowned, his eyes full of worry and stood up and walked around one tree after another to find Yin Thirteen.

"Don't look for it, girl, why don't you go back first, I'll go and ask the next people." Lingniang said.

Xi Shi hurriedly said: "Okay, you go quickly, I'll wait for you here, and then look for him by the way." ”

Ling Niang shook her head and turned to leave.

Xi Shi still went around one tree after another to find Yin Shisan, and pulled the piles of fallen leaves until he returned to the big tree, picked up his cloak and saw that it was full of blood......

Xi Shi broke out in a cold sweat, and then squatted in place, holding the cloak tightly in his arms.

"Girl!"

The call of Lingniang in the distance finally made Xi Shi come to his senses and stand up.

I saw Lingniang trotting all the way over, panting and saying: "The slave family has inquired, Yin Gongzi and he were thrown into a mass grave outside the palace......

Xi Shi stayed in place, unable to react for a while, and only woke up after Ling Niang called her "girl" twice.

"Chaos, mass graves? He, he's dead...... Is it? Shih Tzu asked with hesitation and disbelief.

Ling Niang's brows condensed slightly, and she replied worriedly: "Hmm...... I heard that he died last night. ”

Xi Shi was shocked, but the cloak in the morning was clearly hidden under the tree, and there were not so many blood stains, and if there was an accident, it would only be after she went to the study class......

Although Xi Shi was suspicious, he still maintained an expression of disbelief and asked, "Last night?" What was it last night? ”

Ling Niang said: "It was said that in the middle of the night, when they got up to go to the toilet at night, they saw Yin Gongzi lying on the heel of the tree covered in blood. There were also many blood marks on the cloak, as if it had been scratched by a wild beast. ”

"Beasts? How could there be wild beasts on the hill behind the palace? Shih Tzu frowned and asked.

Ling Niang replied: "The mountain behind is so big, in fact, there should be a lot of animals here, rabbits and squirrels are common, and foxes and wolves should be a lot." ”

As she spoke, Ling Niang brought the cloak, unfolded it, and said to Xi Shi: "Girl, there are three scratches on this cloak, which must have been cut open by sharp and powerful claws. Yin Gongzi has no martial arts, if he is targeted by a wild wolf or something......"

Xi Shi knew that it must not be so simple, when he came to find Brother Yin this morning, the cloak was still well hidden under the roots of the tree, someone must have come to bully Brother Yin when he went to practice, or ...... Someone just wants him dead!

So who is this person who wants him to die?

Guessing this, Xi Shi's heart was already half cold, but he still pretended to be regretful and sad, squatting on the ground with his cloak in his arms, and muttered in his mouth: "How can this be ......"

Seeing that she seemed to have believed this statement, Ling Niang bent down and gently stroked Xi Shi's back, and said, "The slave family will look for it again, maybe Yin Gongzi just changed places and hid." ”

Xi Shi raised his eyes with tears in his eyes and asked, "Really, Lingniang, did I kill him?" ”

Xi Shi caught the fleeting surprise on Ling Niang's face, and saw her smile and said to herself, "The girl has done her best." ”

Xi Shi wiped his tears, closed the cloak, and silently followed Ling Niang back.

Ling Niang walked in front and smiled slightly, but she also didn't see Xi Shi Mo Rushen's eyes looking at her back.

The two of them each had their own ghosts, and they finally returned to Huanyue Pavilion one after the other.

Xi Shi exchanged for Lingniang before his lunch break, and asked Lingniang to inform Fan Li that she was going to see him tonight.

After Lingniang received the order, she went to find Fan Li, and informed Fan Li of Xi Shi's reaction today.

Fan Li heard Lingniang say that Xi Shi had already believed that Yin Shisan had been bitten to death by the beast, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Well done, does the girl have any wishes that you want to fulfill, tell Zaixia, and try her best to help the girl complete it." ”

Ling Niang pondered for a moment and said humbly: "It is the honor of the slave family to serve the general, and the slave family does not need anything in return. ”

Fan Li nodded with a smile and said, "That girl can ask me for an exchange at any time if she needs it." Let's go back first, and I'll go to the appointment in the evening. ”

Ling Niang retreated.

At night, the moon hangs on the branches.

Shih Tzu's window was knocked three times, and she went to open it.

Sure enough, it was Fan Li.

Fan Li, as usual, was dressed in white, and looked very dazzling in the dark night.

Xi Shi hurriedly let him in, and was about to open the door, but saw Fan Li holding the window with one hand, jumped directly and rolled in from the window.
