"Qi Yan" only felt a clang, and the spoon on the table, along with the plate, and the sweet soup on the plate all fell under the table. Perhaps the body instinctively avoided the falling sweet soup, and the body unconsciously leaned back, the center of gravity of the stool was unstable, and it was about to be planted towards the floor in a blink of an eye.

"Qi Yan" was ready to meet the collision of the floor, but he fell into a familiar embrace.

"Oops. I saw only one pair of hands, lifting the plate from the bottom up, holding the falling tray with precision, saving the sweet soup on the tray and the spoon that almost fell.

"Qi Yan" didn't feel the pain he expected, and when he opened his eyes, he found Xu Jia appearing in front of him.

After Xu Jia carefully helped "Qi Yan" up, the tray in his hand also rested on the table, and he didn't say anything. Turning around, he looked at the figure that suddenly appeared and said, "The head of the house." “

"Qi Yan" poked his head out curiously, looking at the head of the family in front of Xu Jia, what did he look like.

"Qi Yan" has never seen it, but he knows that he was plundered, and now he appears in the palace and pretends to be Concubine Yan, all of which are the meaning of this head of the family. What she wanted to do, who she was, she didn't know.

In front of Xu Jia, there was a person standing, judging from his figure, that person was almost the same as himself, but his appearance was a completely unfamiliar appearance. This person is Xu Jia's head of the family?

"Xu Jia, tonight, get ready, the plan is about to start. Tonight, be sure to catch Ghost Xu. The man in the eunuch costume spoke coldly. The cold sound was like the weather outside that had just begun to fall into winter.

"Qi Yan" was stunned, and carefully looked at the head of Xu Jia's family from behind Xu Jia, sighing in his heart, why is there such a cold voice in this world.

"In the evening, remember to take her with you. Protect her. The head of the family looked at "Qi Yan" and said lightly.

"Yes. Xu Jia lowered his head, and when he raised his head again, the head of the family was gone.

"Qi Yan" let go of Xu Jia's back shirt, looked at Xu Jia, who was motionless, and said, "What are your plans tonight?"

"Qi Yan" didn't think that Xu Jia would tell him, but he didn't expect that Xu Jia was silent for a while, and then turned his head and said to himself seriously.

"Qi Yan" was a little surprised, but he also listened carefully.

"Tonight, we're going to arrest someone who's just like us. But now, he is lurking in the Taiping Palace, but he is doing murderous deeds. “

"Qi Yan" thought for a while and said, "Your Xu family, aren't you from Xixuan, it's not good for Taiping, isn't it just following your wishes?"

Xu Jia sighed and said, "Originally, I thought the same way, but the head of the family has her own plans, so I just need to obey." “

"Qi Yan" tilted his head, shook his calves, and said, "If your family master is not for Xixuan, then you will follow her without hesitation?"

Xu Jia looked out the window in confusion and said softly, "Actually, I also asked myself like this." My brother and I survived, but if it weren't for the head of the family, who rescued us and raised us, maybe we would have died five years ago. At that time, my brother and I vowed to follow the head of the family. If what the head of the family wants to do is different from the Xu family, then I want to 。。。。。 Xu Jia was silent, but "Qi Yan" opened his mouth and continued: "If it were me, I would also follow the head of the family." Because, she saved your life and saved your heart. Qi Yan's hand was placed on Xu Jia's hand.

Maybe it was these words, maybe it was this warmth, so Xu Jia's eyes couldn't help but put on the smiling girl in front of him.

She is not good-looking, and she is just an orphan girl of ordinary people, but she can understand her own heart.

Xu Jia smiled slightly and said, "You're right. His big calloused hand slowly closed on Qi Yan's hand.

"Bang bang bang. I only heard the sound of my heart beating suddenly in my heart, "Qi Yan" only felt red and red, at this time, isn't it about to kiss?

"Qi Yan" was suddenly excited, for Xu Jia, he secretly promised, if he could go further, it would be excellent, thinking of this, his lips couldn't help but pout, this appearance made Xu Jia stunned for a moment. The whole atmosphere was also shattered, but it made Xu Jia smile.

The burden in my heart was suddenly lightened a lot.

"Big brother, has the head of the family come to look for you?" is such a voice, very uninterestingly interrupted such a perfect, romantic atmosphere, and this person is Xu Yi.

After Xu Yi appeared, the scene he saw also made Xu Yi stunned, pouting "Qi Yan" and the big brother with a panicked face.

This scene, as long as anyone with a little IQ can understand it, Xu Yi is no exception.

"I don't see anything, I can wait until you kiss before I speak. In order to avoid suspicion, Xu Yi deliberately covered his eyes and turned his head, very cooperative, and said wittily.

"Qi Yan" rolled his eyes, looked at Xu Yi's back with great resentment, and retracted his pursed lips. Xu Jia cleared his throat, stood up, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Xu Yi turned his head leisurely, looked at "Qi Yan" with a not very good face, and then looked at Xu Jia, who looked embarrassed, before he spoke: "The head of the family has come to look for you?"

"Well, just left. Xu Jia said.

"That's good, the eldest brother also knows the plan for tonight, the head of the family asked me to pursue Ghost Xu, and I have found it. “

"Found it?" Xu Jia nodded: "No wonder the head of the family asked us to prepare, it seems that tonight is not destined to be a peaceful night." “

"yes. “

"Qi Yan" suddenly raised his little hand and said blankly: "Can I ask, what are you talking about?"

Xu Jia and Xu Yi glanced at each other, and they understood each other, but unfortunately, there were only the two of them.

"What is she going to do?"

"The head of the house said he wanted to take her, and she was in the plan. “

"Why her?"

"Well, I don't know. “

"Well, it's good that we didn't let her hear it, but it's not a good idea for her to keep pestering you. “

"Is there any good way for you, then? Let her pester you? Our brother looks so alike, if you pretend to be me, she won't recognize her. “

"This, I'll leave it to you, I'm going to continue to monitor Ghost Xu. Haha" As soon as the words in his heart fell, Xu Yisu quickly disappeared.

"Qi Yan" looked at the place where Xu Yi disappeared, and then looked back at Xu Jia, her mouth had just opened, and Xu Jia interrupted her: "The sweet soup is cold, and it won't taste good if it's cold." “

"By the way, where did your brother go just now?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because, there is a smell on his body, like the smell of Guiyi's ashes. “

"Guiyi?" Xu Jia looked at her in surprise: "You, can you smell it?"

"Hmm. "Qi Yan" drank the sweet soup and said, "I am sensitive to these tastes, especially this one. I didn't tell you? My father and mother were a merchant in Zhongyou in the early years, and once brought back this thing, when I was still young, when I smelled this, I couldn't stop crying, helplessly, my father took this thing outside the house, and later agreed to sell this rare treasure. However, it was a long time ago, and later, my father's boat was capsized, and I was also exiled in Qilu and became a Le Ji. I smelled this smell when I was a child, so I naturally knew it. However, why is there such a thing in this palace, when I was a child, I remember my father said that all the things on this Gui Qi can be used in medicine, but the ashes of Gui Qi are a vicious thing, and they are often used as witchcraft. It is said that the most commonly used is to be able to kill the fetus still in the womb and turn it into blood. At that time, I was still wondering, why, this Gui Qi is a race that loves living beings, but their ashes are dedicated to killing fetuses? Speaking of which, there is such a thing in this palace, and in this palace, only the Jade Concubine Niangniang is pregnant, could it be that there is someone?" Before Qi Yan finished speaking, his mouth was covered by Xu Jia. Xu Jia whispered: "In the palace, there are some things, even if you understand it, don't say it." “

"Qi Yan" swept away Xu Jia's hand with his hand, and said: "Why don't you say it, it's obviously a bad thing, why can't you say it, is it possible to watch the fetus of the Jade Concubine die?"

Xu Jia solemnly looked at the face of "Qi Yan" with anger, and said, "You, do you really want to tell that Jade Concubine Niangniang?"

"Of course, my mother often said that saving someone's life is better than creating a seventh-level Buddha, of course I have to say it. Although I don't understand any big truths, I still know how to be kind to others. "Qi Yan" puffed up his chest, raised his little face with a few freckles, and said.

"Okay, then I'll take you. If I take you, will you be able to find the ashes of that Gui Qi?"

"Of course. "Qi Yan" patted his chest and said.
