[Shizome: I don't know if you'll like this gift, but I guess you'll like it.] 】

Shizoran lowered her head, her hands swaying on the mask she had just picked up, the past really made her feel that there was no meaning in her life, and now she also knew what she wanted.

"Uh, sorry, reminding you of the past. It's okay, I'll make you a make-up one on your birthday in the future! ”

Xue Liyue knew that she had made her sad again, so she hurriedly coaxed, completely losing her previous cold appearance.

"Well, okay, thank you, it's good to have you."

Since this day, Xiran has really stayed in the ancient mansion obediently, and has never gone out again, and Xue Rongqing has not made any more trouble, so he has passed peacefully for a week.

"Hey, why is it so quiet today, Emperor Xuanlie and Yu Chu?"

Shizome's injuries have been completely healed, his body is recovering well, and his spirit is great. I got up early in the morning and stretched, looking at the quiet yard in front of me, and couldn't help but mutter to myself.

Today's weather is exceptionally refreshing, Shizome is slowly wandering around the yard, since she promised not to leave the ancient mansion, the days have become more and more boring, but she also has a lot of time to practice, and she will practice in the backyard for an afternoon every day.

She thought that she had broken through to the level of an intermediate two-star, so she needed to consolidate it again, after all, it was the effect of medicinal power, and she was not as stable as her own solid cultivation.

"Hey, Captain Mo, why didn't you see Emperor Xuanlie and Yu Chu today?"

Xi Ran suddenly saw Mo Hexin, who was walking strangely, still carrying a basket for delivering food in his hand, and hurriedly walked out of the backyard, and hurriedly stepped forward to look and ask.

"Oh, Xiao Ran, they should go to the final assessment." Mo Hexin was obviously a little surprised that Xi Ran had come to the backyard so early today, and the hand holding the rice basket unconsciously hid behind him.

"Assessment? Hey, too. ”

When Xi Ran heard this, her mood was a little sluggish, originally, she could have go, but she didn't expect that the providence would make her stop at the intermediate assessment, and she missed Tianhai Academy, and she felt very uncomfortable.

"Well, don't be too upset, I remember that His Highness said that it should be yours and it will be yours, so don't be discouraged, you still have a chance."

Mo Hexin also suddenly realized that he seemed to have said the wrong thing, and hurriedly comforted him, in fact, if it wasn't for His Highness's order, he really wanted to tell Xiran everything.

Sometimes, concealment is a good thing, but sometimes, it is not a good thing for the person who is being concealed, and often when he finds out the truth, he faces a collapse. Therefore, it is very cruel for anyone.

"Well, it's okay, I'm naturally not going to give up. By the way, what is Captain Mo doing in the backyard early in the morning? ”

"Ah, I... I'm here to deliver food to the guards, and recently His Highness has asked them to guard the back door and can't leave, so he asked me to deliver food. ”

Mo Hexin hurriedly lied, saying that he also directly showed Xiran the rice basket in his hand, smiling on the surface, but in fact, his palms were so nervous that he was sweating.

"Oh, the big ice cube is really, just like this to his subordinates, I'll talk to him another day."

Xi Ran held back her eyes at the rice basket in Mo Hexin's hand, judging from the size and weight, it didn't look like she was giving so many strong men the amount of food to the guards, and then looked at Mo Hexin who looked weird, she still had a skeptical attitude in her heart, but she didn't pierce it.

"Mm-hmm, that's fine, then I'm still busy beforehand." Mo Hexin touched his sweat, and hurriedly found a reason to slip away, but before Xiran nodded his head, he couldn't see anyone.

"It's really strange, is there anyone else in this backyard?" Shizome heightened his suspicions and decided to investigate on his own.

The backyard of the ancient house is really not big, but it is not small. The path opened by the bluestone slab, winding and twisting, bypassing the rockery and the small jungle, appeared a small wooden house in front of Shizome.

"When, there's still a cabin here?"

Shizoan frowned, this wooden house obviously didn't match the entire ancient house, and it was hidden in such a hidden place, even if she came to the backyard to practice every day, she didn't find out about the existence of this wooden house.

There are still layers of moss on the roof, and spider silk is still hanging, the doors and windows of the wooden house are tightly sealed, and there is no trace of the inside from the outside, and the wooden doors are still locked, and the surroundings look like they have been abandoned for a long time.

When Xi Ran walked in and carefully inspected the lock, he found that the lock was exceptionally clean, and there were still very new traces of unlocking, which means that the object of Mo Hexin's food just now should be the person who gave it to this wooden house.

So who is locked up here by the big ice? She didn't even know anything.

Shizome calmly analyzed, thinking of any way to sneak in to find out, first listening carefully to the movement inside, but couldn't hear anything.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a guard patrolling next to her, although she was the owner of the ancient mansion, but it was not good to be found sneaking here, so Shizome decided to leave first, and then secretly come to inspect it when she practiced in the afternoon, maybe she could get the key.

Prince's Palace

"Xue Man, what was handed over to you to check, how did you check?"

Since the last time he knew that Xue Man was murdering Xiran behind his back, Xue Rongqing had never given Xue Man a good look, and his tone was cold, after all, he hated betrayal the person most in his life, even if it was his own son.

"It's all checked, that Gongzi is really cunning, their rudder disappeared completely, leaving no clues, and it was the place where we found Xue Liyue and them last time!"

Xue Man reported truthfully on the side, it has been a week, and it has taken them a lot of effort to find some clues, after all, this time is different from the past, and the entire Fulan Town is no longer what Xue Rongqing said.

"Hmph, sure enough, he wants to count so many lives on the head of this king!" Xue Rongqing slapped the table hard, he knew too late, that Li Gongzi was really not an idle person!

Then what Shizoran was holding in his hand that day may be some important evidence! Xue Rongqing was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat by this idea.

He didn't know if Li Gongzi was in collusion with Xue Liyue and them, or if he wanted to use Xue Liyue's hand to get rid of himself and leave any important evidence!

Gradually, Xue Rongqing clenched his fists, his expression was hideous, hum, want to join forces to bring me down? There are no doors!

The afternoon sun warmed people's hearts, and Shizome also came to his room and took out the tips he had embroidered for a few days.

After that day, Xiran has been thinking about what gifts to give to Xue Liyue would be better. If she spends money to buy those expensive things, it seems to be a bit like having an axe in front of him as a prince, plus she has no money herself.

So what kind of things will fit the big ice cube and the big ice cube will like it?

Shizome suddenly thought of embroidering a small bag and letting him take it with him, and he could also use the power of the stars to transform it, turn the space into it, and use it as a storage device, which is also the easiest way to make a simple storage device.

Shizome looked at the small bag that had been formed in his hand, the size of a palm, embroidered with a dragon pattern, and the red ears of wheat were sewn on it, which was very delicate and dexterous.

She looked at it over and over, always feeling that there was something missing, and Xi Ran suddenly saw the bracelet on her right wrist again, and the dye word on it was extremely obvious.

"That's right! I'll also embroider a word. ”

Before she knew it, the afternoon had passed, and she had forgotten what she was going to do in the afternoon, and she was completely focused on that little bag.

"Gollum~"

The protest from the stomach made Xiran come back to his senses, moved his neck, put down the work in his hand, rubbed his stomach, and looked at the dark sky outside, but he didn't expect it to be so late all of a sudden, so he got up and prepared to find something to eat.

"Hey, Xiaochu, you're back, what's the result of the exam?"

"Well, I'll be back in the afternoon, and if nothing happens, the two of us should be able to make it to the top three. I thought you were resting, Xiao Ran, how are you feeling? ”

Hatsuya had just come out of the room, and was surprised to be able to meet Shizome here.

"The top three, it's good, then I'll celebrate in advance that you have successfully obtained the ticket to study at Tianhai Academy. I've been fine for a long time, but I'm suddenly hungry and come out to find something to eat. ”

Shizoan suddenly felt a little sad, and his tone was a little sour, but he still sincerely blessed him, and then covered his little belly and replied with a smile.

"Hey, it just so happens that there is still some food in the kitchen, so you can go eat, I still have some things, so I won't accompany you for now." Yu Chu nodded hurriedly, waved his hand apologetically, and turned to leave with hurried steps.

"Oh, good." Shizome looked at the direction that Yu Chu left, that was the direction leading to Xue Liyue's room, what was Yu Chu doing in the big night to find a big ice cube? I can't help but arouse Shiozen's curiosity.

Shizome looked down at his stomach again, and it was better to eat his stomach first, so he couldn't treat himself badly.

Xue Liyue's room

"Why are you late today?" Emperor Xuan Lie looked at Yu Chu who had just pushed the door in, and was a little puzzled, usually Yu Chu was very punctual.

"Ah, I ran into a little dye on the way, so I delayed a little." Yu Chu hurriedly came in, closed the door, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Xiao Ran? Did she find anything? Xue Liyue's right eyelid kept jumping, coupled with Yu Chu's words, it suddenly made him a little flustered, and sure enough, he still had a little uneasy conscience despite hiding from Xi Ran.

"Probably not, she went to the kitchen to find something to eat, let's start quickly and save ourselves from being discovered." Yu Chu came to the round table and urged, in fact, she had just met Xiran, and her heart was about to jump out, and she was nervous.

"Okay, there's still two weeks to go, so let's arrange it as soon as possible. Xiao Chu, how are you preparing for the related matters of marriage? ”

Xue Liyue directly started to get to the point, this plan does not allow any mistakes, it must be successful!

"It's no problem at all, and Grandpa Hagu has agreed, he will attend."

"Okay, Captain Mo, hurry up and arrange the procurement of relevant materials, and make a good connection with Uncle Huang's side, what kind of venue layout or something, you have to personally inquire and check."

Xue Liyue arranged this way because she was afraid that Xue Rongqing would secretly make some small moves behind his back, which would hurt him, how to pull Yu Chu to accompany him to the funeral, then he was really sorry for the Yu clan.

"Yes."

"Hey, wait, Xue Liyue, do you really want to hide Xiao Ran?" Emperor Xuan Lie was still a little entangled, looking at Xue Liyue seriously, he really felt that sooner or later they would not be able to hide it.

"I know what you're worried about, what's going on, I'll carry it, this marriage must be done."

Xue Liyue's eyes also paused for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind, but as soon as he finished speaking, there was a crisp sound of "pop" outside the door.

"Who?!"

Xue Liyue's heart felt a beat skipping at this time, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the door, "Xiao Ran?!" ”
