At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the entire Imperial Capital City, and the roof of the Hou Ye's Mansion was covered with a thin layer of gold. The bamboo grove in the courtyard was gently blown by the breeze, and a few green bamboo leaves fell, and the faint fragrance of bamboo leaves fluttered gently. The breeze whipped up the fallen petals on the ground, and the petals swept through the floor of the promenade.

And in the corner of the Hou Mansion, Mu Zijiang stood there again, because he was sure that the assassin must still be hiding in the mansion last night, but it was not clear where he was currently hiding? What has always puzzled Mu Zijiang is why he didn't find any trace of the assassin when he searched the Dongyuan dormitory last night?

"You are guarding the outside of the fence tonight, and report any movement immediately." Mu Zijiang ordered the last pair of men and horses to be armed, and he didn't believe that he couldn't catch the assassin.

After dinner, Linglong returned to the dormitory, Lord Hou rested early tonight, and it is estimated that he did not sleep last night.

Linglong brought food into the dormitory, of course, she didn't do it blatantly, but after returning from the Hou Ye, others looked at it, and they only saw a medicine box. I have to say that Linglong is also a cautious and careful person.

Linglong entered the inner room of the dormitory and saw that Zimo was sleeping deeply, so she didn't wake him up. It is estimated that after the injury, some anesthetic was used.

Linglong looked at Zimo quietly like this, watching him sleep, quiet everything. He breathed evenly, and although he was seriously injured, he should not feel the pain of the wound when he fell asleep at the moment.

A quarter of an hour later, Zimo woke up and opened his eyes, only to see Linglong sitting on the edge of the bed looking at him. Zimo immediately withdrew his eyes.

"You're awake, are you hungry?" Linglong walked to the table and brought out the bowl of tonic soup, which was originally made for Hou Ye, but tonight the adults were tired, so he ordered him to withdraw. happened to be there, so he didn't let his subordinates in, but just let Linglong take it out, so Linglong put the bowl of tonic soup in the medicine box and brought it into his bedroom.

Linglong brought the soup into the inner room, sat next to Zimo, picked up the soup spoon, and prepared to feed Zimo the soup.

As a result, Zimo was a little embarrassed.

……

"My hands can move, I'll do it myself!" Zimo said and took the bowl of soup and drank it quickly. After drinking it, he knew that this was ginseng soup, and he was too anxious when he drank it just now, or he was afraid that Linglong would feed him personally, so he ......

"It seems that you are too hungry, blame me, it has been a whole day before I bring you food." Linglong's face blamed herself.

"It's not easy for you, but thank you so much!" Zimo said.

Linglong took the bowl and took it out. Then he opened the cabinet and took out the jade pendant that fell from Zimo's body last night. When Linglong saw this jade pendant, she really had an impulse to ask him, about the origin of this jade pendant? The mystery of the life story hidden behind the jade pendant? But Linglong held back, and told her soberly that she couldn't make such a mistake.

Linglong paused for a while before handing the jade pendant to Zimo: "Last night, this jade pendant fell out of your body, and now it is returned to its original owner." ”

Zimo saw the jade pendant that Linglong was holding in his hand, it was the jade pendant that his senior brother lent him, such an important thing, he accidentally dropped it.

So Zimo hurriedly took the jade pendant and said, "This is my senior brother's belongings, fortunately, it was not lost." ”

What the???

When Linglong heard him say this, her heart felt as if she had been hit by something, it turned out that the real owner of this jade pendant was not Zimo, but Zimo's senior brother.

This......

It's just incredible......

Anyway, Linglong finally knew the owner of this jade pendant, but she didn't know this person, so when her task was over, she could go to find this person.

"It's not too early, I have to leave as soon as possible, otherwise the longer I stay here, the longer I stay, the more it will only affect you." Zimo said to Linglong, but Linglong didn't answer his words.

Linglong's thoughts at the moment are all on that jade pendant.

"Delicate girl......" Zimo called her again.

"Oh, that...... You just said you were leaving. Linglong only then came to her senses.

"Hmm!" Zimo said and got up from the bed. Although the wound had been bandaged, the arrow was quite deep, and the pain in the wound followed.

After Linglong saw it, she held Zimo with her hand, and her actions were a little kind. After all, in that era of more conservative thinking, Zimo should have been quite unaccustomed to such actions, after all, under the influence of the traditional idea that men and women in ancient times did not kiss each other, but it was strange that he didn't hate such contact.

I have to say that this has something to do with Linglong's appearance, to be precise, when a person is in adversity, the person who has helped him, this person will never be forgotten by him, and it is also the most impressive.

This is also after Linglong left, it became an indelible pain in Zimo's heart for the rest of his life!
