XXIII. Close encounters

The night is so quiet that it seems to engulf people.

Rong Jiujuan shrunk and hid in the corner of the bed, looking around vigilantly, she was the only one in the room at this time, because she hadn't eaten all night, Amu was afraid that she would be hungry, so she went to the kitchen to get her some food.

Suddenly, a cold wind struck, the west window creaked, and the candles in the room were blown bright and dark by the wind.

Rong Jiu was so frightened that his hairs stood up, and he hurriedly picked up the quilt to block the front.

With so many guards outside, the Assassins shouldn't be able to get in, right? Maybe it's just a gust of wind, but I'm thinking too much.

Rong Jiu comforted himself.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed, startling Rong Jiu to scream, but before the voice could come out, she was caught in her mouth by a broad hand.

"Shhhh Don't call, it's me. ”

Rong Jiu cautiously opened his eyes, and in front of him was Song Moting's enlarged face.

"What the hell? You're scaring me to death! Rong Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hehe, I'm sorry, the main thing is that you are too heavily guarded here, so I can only sneak in like this." Song Moci blinked his innocent big eyes.

"No, big brother, why did you come to me in the middle of the night? I'm not afraid of being killed as an assassin. Rong Jiu glared at him angrily.

"It's not that I heard that you haven't eaten all night, and I'm in a hurry, so I brought you something good." Song Moci said mysteriously.

"What's good?" Rong Jiu was immediately aroused.

"Bell, bell."

Song Moci took out the hand behind his back, and in his hand was a large portion of dark brown pastry.

"What is this?"

Rong Jiu was a little disappointed, because she still had so much hope, it turned out to be just a small snack.

"This is a sour plum cake, but it's delicious, can you try it?"

With Song Moci's face full of anticipation, Rong Jiu carefully picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. The sweet and sour taste melted in the mouth, soft and glutinous and smooth, Rong Jiu suddenly felt an appetite, and after eating a whole piece, it was still unsatisfying.

"Hmm...... It's so delicious! ”

Rong Jiu's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but pick up another piece and put it in his mouth.

"If it's delicious, you can eat more, ehβ€”don't worry, eat slowly, don't choke."

Song Moci looked at Rong Jiu's gobbling up, he only felt extremely cute, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hang a gentle smile.

After a while, a large portion of the dim sum was wiped out by Rong Jiu.

Rong Jiu touched his round belly, and his mood was particularly beautiful.

"By the way, I remember that you slapped the masked man in order to save me, how is it, is it serious?"

Rong Jiu suddenly remembered that Song Moci had been slapped and asked anxiously.

Song Moci saw that Rong Jiu was caring about himself, he was in a particularly comfortable mood, and he patted his chest and said, "I, Song Moci, am not something that anyone can hurt casually!" Hissβ€”"

Maybe it was because of the sore spot, Song Moci couldn't help but gasp.

"Hahaha, pretending to be too much, you!"

Rong Jiu looked at Song Moci's embarrassment, and couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.

"Actually, it's nothing, this kind of small injury, it'll be fine in a day or two."

Song Moci touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment, and said pretending to be calm.

In fact, only he knows how much it hurts. This night, he didn't even bother to give himself medicine, and while leading people to search for assassins all over the city, he was still worried about Rong Jiu's condition. So much so that before she had time to rest, she came to see her again with snacks.

"It's still pretending, show me quickly."

Rong Jiu said, reaching out to pick up Song Moci's clothes.

Song Moci was startled, his eyes widened, and his face was incredulous. But Rong Jiu paid attention to this, she is a modern person, how can she have so many feudal thoughts of the ancients.

"Ahem, I'm me, I'll do it myself." Song Moci took Rong Jiu's restless little hand away, and then opened the clothes on his chest, which were already red and a little purple.

"So serious! It must have hurt. ”

Rong Jiu opened his mouth in surprise, and cautiously reached out to touch it, because the distance was too close, the two looked a little ambiguous at this moment, Song Moci's whole body stiffened, and as soon as Rong Jiu's little hand touched him, he hit a spirit, causing Rong Jiu to think that he had hurt him, and hurriedly apologized to him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, have you been drugged?"

"No, not in time."

Song Moci turned his face away embarrassedly, and at this time his ears were already red and hot.

"I'm so badly injured, why don't I deal with it."

Rong Jiu said, turned over and got out of bed, ran to the dresser and began to rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find things.

"What are you looking for?"

Song Moci touched the root of his hot ear and asked with some doubts.

"I'm looking for a baby," Rong Jiu said with his head buried in his head, "Haha, I found it, here." ”

Rong Jiu picked up a small bottle in the corner of the drawer and sat happily next to Song Moci.

"Don't move, I'll help you with the medicine, this medicine works well!"

As Rong Jiu spoke, he opened the mouth of the bottle, poured a little ointment on his fingers, and then carefully applied it to Song Moci's wound.

"Don't be nervous, this medicine doesn't hurt at all."

Seeing Song Moci's tense body, Rong Jiu mistakenly thought that he was afraid of pain, so he hurriedly comforted, and the movements in his hands also lightened.

Rong Jiutu was extremely serious, and his steady breathing was evenly sprinkled on Song Moci's chest, Song Moci obviously did not get so close to a woman, and the deer in his heart was pounding, although he was nervous, he was also a little happy.

Rong Jiu's serious appearance at this moment, in his opinion, was particularly attractive.

All right! Rong Jiu plugged the mouth of the bottle, stuffed the medicine bottle into Song Moci's hand, and continued, "This bottle of medicine will be given to you, you should repay you for saving your life, you have to put it away, this is precious, if you are injured again in the future, you can use it to apply, but you can't apply it too often, just once in a while, otherwise you will be lazy in the future." ”

Song Moci carefully looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, the tip of his nose was still lingering with a faint fragrance, and his chest was cool and cool, and it didn't hurt much anymore.

"What kind of medicine is this? How does it work so well! ”

"It's easy to use! This was given to me by my sister, but it is precious, and it specializes in treating bruises. Rong Jiu said proudly.

"Did you get hurt a lot?" Song Moci asked with concern, carrying this medicine with him, he should have brought it when he was often injured.

Rong Jiu lowered his head, and remembered that when he was still in Xining, he followed his brothers everywhere during the day, and at night he nested in Sister A's arms and shouted that it hurts, and when he learned martial arts with Mo Ningshu, he often had large and small bruises on his body, and at that time, although he was often injured, he was also very happy.

Song Moci looked at her and looked down in thought, knowing that she was homesick, his generous palm rubbed her somewhat messy hair, and asked, "Can you tell me about your time in Xining?"

Rong Jiu raised her head, met Song Moci's gentle eyes, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly found that it seemed that she didn't hate Song Moci so much at this time.

After sorting out her emotions, she began to speak with her eyebrows fluttering.

Amu sat on the steps of the doorway, the moon was bright tonight, and she had dismissed the patrolling guards, because she knew that it must be safe tonight.

The laughter of the two of them could be heard in the room from time to time, and whenever this happened, Amu would laugh along.

In this way, the princess will soon be able to come out of the shadows.

Amu couldn't help but hold his head and think.

I don't know how long I said, Rong Jiu was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, he fell asleep on Song Moci's shoulder, his little head swayed, and he slipped off his shoulder all of a sudden, Song Moci was shocked, and hurriedly reached out to catch it, put it on his thigh, Rong Jiu shrunk, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep peacefully.

Song Moci's blood all over his body coagulated, and he didn't dare to move, for fear of waking Rong Jiu up, it was the first time he looked at Rong Jiu so closely, her face was round, and there was a little bit of baby fat that had not completely faded, her long black hair was scattered at will, and the whole person looked like a delicate porcelain doll, which made people can't help but want to take care of it carefully.

Song Moci was a little fascinated, he gently stroked her soft hair, and his starry eyes were full of tenderness.

If Mencius saw this scene, his mouth must have been so surprised that he could swallow an egg.

On the second day, Rong Jiu slept directly until the third pole of the sun, and when he woke up, there was no one around him, everything last night seemed like a dream, but it was so real.

"Amu?"

Rong Jiu rubbed his somewhat messy hair and shouted tentatively.

"Princess, are you awake?"

Amu pushed the door in, carefully wrung out the towel and handed it to Rong Jiu to wash his face.

Rong Jiu took the towel and asked while wiping his face, "Amu, did anyone come last night?"

"No, Amu went to the kitchen to get snacks, and when he came back, he found that the princess had fallen asleep, so he stayed aside." Ah Mu said, before leaving, Song Moci specially instructed her not to say it, so as not to spread it to Rong Jiu's reputation.

Now Rong Jiu was a little confused, was everything last night really a dream?

While Ah Mu took out the face wash, Rong Jiu sat down in front of the dresser and began to flip through the drawers, and the place where the medicine bottle should have been placed in the corner was empty at the moment.

It doesn't seem to be a dream, doesn't Amu know?

Rong Jiu scratched his head and decided to bury this matter in his heart.

In the hall, Rong Le, Rong Xian, and Song Moting were deliberating.

"Did the prince say that those people committed suicide by taking poison?" Rong Le's brow furrowed.

"Well, when the officers and soldiers arrived, the leader had already run away, and the rest of the minions were dead and wounded, and those injured people committed suicide by poisoning when they were caught in prison, and it is obvious that they came prepared." Song Moting raised his head, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, "And those people don't look like people from Youzhou, but more like people from Mingyue Kingdom." ”

"I'm! The people of the Bright Moon Country are simply wolf-hearted! Rong Xian was so angry that he slapped the table and got up, eager to tear them apart immediately.

"This matter is now known to everyone, I searched all night last night and didn't find it, most of them fled out of the city, and we don't know how many of them there are, where they are hiding, they didn't succeed last night, they will definitely shoot again, this matter is even more tricky than we expected." Jung Le said.

"Don't worry, this king has sent someone to quietly go outside the city to investigate, since this matter is handed over to this king, this king will definitely live up to expectations." Song Moting promised, and the sharpness and firmness in his eyes made Rong Le Rongxian nod with satisfaction.

Rong Le wanted to say something more, but when he raised his head, he saw Rong Jiuzheng sneakily hiding aside and peeking at Song Moting, he only felt a little helpless and funny, cleared his throat, and hurriedly called her over.

"Ahem, little sister, woke up? Come and sit down. ”

Rong Jiu saw that he had been discovered, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile: "Hehe, are you all here?" I'll just pass by, pass by, and you go on. ”

After speaking, he took Amu and ran away.
