The hustle and bustle of the world has nothing to do with Xiao Qi lying flat.

It's November now, and due to the heavy snow a few days ago, there are already a few decent snowmen outside the yard, these are not Xiao Qi's masterpieces, but from Ai Yaya's hand.

A few days ago, Ai Yaya suddenly began to love work, busy before and after, and then personally piled the snow outside into a snowman.

It's just that for a courtyard with only two people, there are so many snowmen suddenly erected outside, and it's really scary to look at the shadows outside at night.

Today's founder, Ai Yaya, has not much energy now, and now he doesn't want to come down on the kang, and he looks like he won't come down by roasting the stove around the quilt.

Xiao Qi didn't have her habit of lying in bed, and began to prepare to read after getting out of bed.

Recently, Xiao Qi's obsession with books has really reached a state of forgetfulness.

"Miss, give me that book, it should be good, not those big truths."

Xiao Qi smiled helplessly, took a book from the bookshelf and threw it to Ai Yaya, this is a book of words, which was found by the guards at the door, as for the reason, Miss Zhang's degree of obsession with reading has already shown signs of being passed from person to person.

The guard at the door had also begun to read by the brazier, reading books that were not nutritious, and these books were all things that did not need to be thought about without thinking, just reading one by one.

Ai Yaya, who was sitting warmly on the kang, didn't need much time, and now began to yawn constantly, and it didn't take long for Ai Yaya to lie on the kang and start to nap again.

Xiao Qi shook his head helplessly, put the books aside, covered the quilt for Ai Yaya, stretched his waist, and walked outside.

In addition to the scattered snowmen in the courtyard, there is a tree growing in the empty yard, Xiao Qi walked to the side of the tree, groped for the trunk, and smiled helplessly.

The two rattan chairs under the tree had already been moved into the house, and only the stone table and stone chair on one side remained.

Of course, Xiao Qi would not run to experience a stone chair in the snow in such a cold situation.

It's just that I always feel that something is going to happen recently, leaning against the tree, Xiao Qi sighed: "It's been a long time since I've been in contact with Aunt Liu, and after so long, I don't know if Aunt Liu is doing well now." ”

It has been almost half a year since Liu Yunhua left the Zhang family, but there has been no news for so long, and Xiao Qi can only blame these on the current tension between Chengguo and Yueguo.

After resting outside for a while, Xiao Qi returned to the house again, if there was no guard outside the door, Xiao Qi still wanted to stretch his muscles, after all, Liu Yunhua had been here for so many years, and Xiao Qi had not wasted this opportunity in vain.

It's just that now there is a guard outside the door, and Xiao Qi still feels that he can't expose the news of his martial arts.

Looking into the distance, so that his eyes are not sour, Xiao Qi plunged into the world of the sea of books again.

is still like a salted fish, living a peaceful life every day, but the world outside the small courtyard is not so peaceful.

In December, the war in the north finally began, and the cause and effect have long been forgotten, and it is not known who shot an arrow at whose barracks, or whether the scouts of the two sides met and quarreled, anyway, it was a small matter, so that the war in the north finally reached the extreme.

The conflict between the two countries began again with a skirmish, which turned into a battle between large armies, and in just over half a month, tens of thousands of people died on the battlefield.

You come and go, repeating the repetitive posture of attacking the city and defending the city, and then attacking the city and defending the city.

Good news and bad news were constantly sent to the capitals of the two countries, and in order to calm down the war, soldiers and materials from the two countries were constantly sent to the front line from all parts of the two countries.

Of course, there are also many soldiers who were trapped in the blizzard and cut off contact with the troops, frozen to death, and the mutual slaughter of the two sides and the unilateral slaughter of nature made the northern sky from time to time unsightly.

"Knock, knock."

There was a hurried knock on Xiao Qi's door, Xiao Qi broke away from the state of reading, sighed, looked at Ai Ya Ya who was hiding in the quilt, sighed and said, "Listen to the sound outside?" ”

"Listen to what? There's a knock on the door outside? ”

Xiao Qi really convinced him of his ability to open his eyes and say nonsense, "You can't hear such a loud knock on the door?" ”

"Miss, if you don't open the door again, people will be waiting outside impatiently."

Xiao Qi smiled bitterly and walked outside, it was not Zhang Li or the people in her yard who were outside the door, so Xiao Qi was so leisurely, he slowly walked to the door of the courtyard, and asked out loud before the door opened, "Who is it?" ”

"Miss Seven, it's me."

"Brother Li?"

Xiao Qi hurriedly opened the door, saw the guard who had been guarding outside her yard, and asked with some confusion: "Brother Li, is there something wrong?" ”

Xiao Qi saw a few people dressed like this guard not far away, and he knew that they were from the palace.

Xiao Qi nodded at those people and asked softly, "Brother Li, is something happening?" ”

The guard surnamed Li smiled and said, "Hey, in fact, it's not a big deal, it's just that I'm leaving here." ”

"Getting out of here? Are you going to change people to guard here in the future? ”

"No, no, no, I mean that there will be no one in the palace to guard it, and Miss Seven will be free in the future."

"Huh?" Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment and asked, "Did something happen?" ”

The guard smiled bitterly: "Actually, I won't tell you, a big event happened today, and all of us are going to be sent to the front line, as for what it is, I won't explain, I just want to say goodbye to Miss Seven this time." ”

"Oh, Xiao Qi nodded, then Brother Li, you go slowly,"

"See you back, oh, and the book I borrowed from you before, and now I..."

"It's just a book, Brother Li should be my parting gift, you and I have known each other for so long, I can only give you a book."

"Thank you, Miss Seven."

Although these books were given to him by Zhang Biao, these books, Xiao Qi has already finished reading, and they have no value, besides, Xiao Qi will have to leave here sooner or later, so it is better to give them away.

Just as the guards were about to leave, Xiao Qi said, "Brother Li, I still have some books here, if you want to read them, I will give you a few more of these books." ”

Guard Li's eyes lit up for a moment, and then dimmed again, although the book was good, but he also had to have the life to read it.

"No, thank you for your kindness, my colleagues are still waiting for me, so I won't bother Miss anymore."

After Li Shiwei left, Xiao Qi shook his head helplessly, looking at the cabin outside his yard, "Now I seem to be free?" ”

Xiao Qi walked into the house, and Ai Yaya asked, "Miss, what happened?" ”

"Guard Li is gone."

"What? Guard Li is gone? It's finally time to change people, this is? ”

"Not really."

Xiao Qi looked a little lost, so he didn't say much, of course, he also had a bad intention, that is, he wanted to make Ai Yaya guess anxiously for a while.

Today, there is no reading Yaxing, and teasing Ai Yaya is a good option.

As for the Li guards, they were sent by Yin Gaoce to carry out a secret mission, that is, to arrest some people and return to the capital to ask for guilt.

Surprisingly, Ai Yaya didn't think much about it, which made Xiao Qi a little curious, so Xiao Qi asked, "How do I feel that you are not strange at all?" ”

Ai Ya Ya said: "Strange? Why is it strange, at most, they leave to see us in exchange for someone else. ”

Xiao Qi smiled: "I'm afraid you guessed wrong, we are free now." ”

Ai Yaya didn't reply, she looked at Xiao Qi very strangely, Xiao Qi was also in a state of confusion when Ai Yaya said, and then repeated: "Ya Ya, we are free now, what do you mean by this performance?" ”

"Miss, you underestimate the world too much."

Xiao Qi frowned and looked at Ai Yaya too lazy to worry about her, and after waiting for a while to rest, Xiao Qi thought about going to see his eldest sister and his aunt later, and tell them the good news.

When Xiao Qi woke up in the afternoon, the sun outside was no longer bright, and there was no brightness like in the morning, and a layer of gray things shrouded the sky.

Xiao Qi who woke up didn't see Ai Yaya, and he didn't know where Ai Yaya had gone, Xiao Qi snickered: "It must be this Nizi who secretly went out alone while she was resting." ”

"Ah, are you there?"

Xiao Qi shouted and no one paid attention, and then Xiao Qi said again, "Ah, are you there?" ”

Xiao Qi, who still didn't hear anyone answer, got off the kang directly, added some charcoal to the stove, walked slowly to the courtyard, and called Ai Yaya's name again, but still didn't get a response.

"This Nizi, who ran out secretly alone, didn't wake me up."

After Xiao Qi finished slandering Ai Ya Ya in his heart, when he wanted to go out, he heard movement outside the house, and he didn't rush out to look, but looked outside through the crack in the door.

Just in front of the small room outside, there were a few people standing at this time, seeing their clothes, Xiao Qi knew that they were the Zhang family's nursing home, since they were their own people, Xiao Qi was also relieved.

opened the door and walked outside, but as soon as he went out, those guards directly pointed at Xiao Qi with sticks.

Xiao Qi frowned and said, "What are you doing?" ”

These nurses said: "Seventh Miss, the prince ordered you not to leave the courtyard, and asked you not to leave the hospital, let us be embarrassed." ”

Xiao Qi frowned and said, "Why? ”

"Miss Seven, don't ask about this, we don't know, our order is to guard here and not let you leave the courtyard for half a step."

Xiao Qi still wanted to argue, but seeing that several nursing homes were approaching, he could only retreat back to the courtyard.

Xiao Qi, who retreated to the courtyard, asked these people, "Do you know where Ai Yaya in my courtyard went?" ”

The nurses glanced at each other and shook their heads directly.

Xiao Qi returned to the courtyard and disliked his uncle.
