"Doesn't Your Highness think this little bird resembles us?"

Out of the corner of his eye, Chi Xinsu glanced at the bird on the cushion, a very small one, it seemed to be underage, its wings were wilting and spreading, as if it couldn't stand up, and there was still a little blood stain next to the small beak, which was hanging weakly on the cushion.

After a few glances, he withdrew his gaze indifferently, closed his eyes and didn't bother to talk to Bai Muxing.

Isolated from vision, the sense of hearing became extremely acute, and Chi Xinsu heard a squirming movement next to him, as if Bai Muxing had taken a piece of pastry from the table, pinched out some crumbs and sprinkled it in front of the bird.

After a while, she heard the sound of pouring water again, and it was she who wanted to feed the birds.

It's a pity that the little bird doesn't seem to buy it, and always quietly, without any reaction.

"It's so small, and it falls out of internal injuries, and nine times out of ten, it can't be saved." Chi Xinsu thought to himself.

He heard Bai Muxing sigh very lightly, and said in a coaxing tone: "Silly bird, if you drink water and eat obediently, I will let you catch up with the birds immediately and return to your mother." ”

If only the bird could understand her, it would not be a sperm.

While thinking about it, Chi Xinsu couldn't help but open his eyelids a little and squint, thinking that Bai Muxing was just talking to himself, in vain, but he didn't expect that the bird would hesitate and really start pecking at the crumbs of the pastry.

Seeing this, Bai Muxing raised a satisfied smile on his face, and said softly: "Really good, drink some more water." ”

The bird tilted its head again, dipped its beak into the cup in Bai Muxing's hand, and drank it in small sips.

Seeing this, Chi Xinsu frowned, and asked in a cold voice, "Spirits?" ”

Bai Muxing chuckled: "Your Highness is too worried, this is just an ordinary pulsatilla, it should fly to the south this season, this one is estimated to be too small, and it can't fly and fall down." ”

She explained that Chi Xinsu didn't believe it all, and he took out a demon suppression talisman from his sleeve and threw it at the cushion.

The bird was so small that a talisman was enough to cover most of its body, and the talisman paper fell on its slightly fluffy gray-brown feathers, which seemed to startle it, and the bird turned its head and pecked at the yellow paper with its small beak.

"Oops!"

Bai Muxing hurriedly grabbed the talisman from his mouth, but unfortunately it was too late, and the little bird that had recovered some strength clicked a few times to peck a small hole in the talisman paper.

She pinched the damaged talisman seal and handed it back to Chi Xinsu apologetically: "The bird is ignorant, I hope Your Highness will not blame." ”

The demon charm will spontaneously combust when it encounters a spirit, and this bird is indeed just an ordinary bird.

Chi Xinsu withdrew his vigilant gaze and took the talisman with a hum.

Bai Muxing, who breathed a sigh of relief, flicked the bird's head with his fingers, and said angrily: "Unconscious little guy, are you also so reckless in the flock of birds?" ”

Naturally, the bird would not answer, but it attracted Chi Xinsu's attention, and he asked lightly, "Why did you just say that it resembles us?" ”

Hooked.

The corners of Bai Muxing's lips pursed a peaceful smile, sat down next to the cushion and gently stroked the bird with warm fingers, and then said in a soft and light voice: "In the cold winter, I am helpless, I have something to ask for, and I can't toss and turn." ”

In just sixteen words, it contains the secrets of the royal family, the court pattern and the most secret extravagance in his heart.

Chi Xinsu's brows furrowed suddenly, and the murderous intent in his heart suddenly grew.

What is she?

can know these things that ordinary people can't know, she is by no means the son of Yun Yahou raised by her side.

Bai Muxing seemed to be unaware of Chi Xinsu's murderous gaze, and continued to stroke the bird and said slowly: "Your Highness returned to Jingzhou late, I'm afraid I don't know the entanglement between Yuezhi and our Great Shun Kingdom over the years. ”

"Yuezhi has always been a subordinate of our Dashun country, and the whole country has taken Dashun as an example for food, clothing and housing, including the belief in Taoism."

"A few years ago, Yue sent a Taoist priest with outstanding talents, who is said to have the ability to look up to heaven and earth and communicate with ghosts and gods, and the Great Shun Kingdom has been plagued by natural disasters in the past few years, and there are rumors among the people that the Taoist priest of the Yue Branch secretly did it, which caused the Great Shun National Fortune to be damaged."

"The rumors are very loud, reaching the ears of the Son of Heaven, Your Majesty believed this statement, and decided to send several women to Yuezhi, in the name of harmony, to assassinate the Yuezhi Taoist."

She raised her moist eyes, and there seemed to be endless sadness in her eyes: "I am one of those women. ”

Ji Xinsu looked at her indifferently and did not make any comments.

Although the things Bai Muxing said were different from what he knew, there have always been countless red faces turning into white bones under the emperor's power throughout the ages, and she Bai Muxing is just one of the rolling torrents, and there is nothing special about it.

"I was assigned to marry the Yuezhi Huante clan, and after I got married, I poisoned the Qitian Taoist priest who was supported by the White clan. Originally, the woman who completed the mission should have committed suicide, or stayed in Yuezhi to spend the rest of her life, but I was unwilling. ”

The tears in Bai Muxing's eyes rolled silently and dripped into the cup where the birds were given water.

"Why am I...... Just because my mother is a famous Taoist, and because I am a child who is contrary to human morality, I will be abandoned by my family and sent to a bitter cold foreign country to become a sword for others......"

As she sobbed and cried, a sharp blade was inserted into the hidden corner of Chi Xinsu's heart.

The walls he had built in his mind over the years seemed to be impregnable, but in fact every point of connection was fragile, and a slight push at these junctions could bring his walls down, let alone a sharp blade.

Chi Xinsu's dry throat swallowed his saliva hard, and he said in a low voice, "Your mother, yes, Kun Dao?" ”

"Hmm." Bai Muxing sniffed, as if he suddenly realized his gaffe, and explained in a panic.

"Your Highness, I didn't mean to compare myself to you, I, I...... It was when I thought of the situation of this little bird, and thought of my own situation in Yuezhi, and heard that His Royal Highness was in the middle of the court...... Oh no, what do I say! I'm really ......."

The more she talked, the more chaotic she became, and finally she simply bit her lower lip and stopped squeaking, only timidly peeking her eyes to see Chi Shinjuku's reaction, with a pear blossom with rain and a pitiful look.

Chi Xinsu's hand under his wide sleeve let go, and he gently held the dust again and said calmly, "It's okay." ”

Bai Muxing seemed to be frightened by his gaffe, still keeping his head down and not making a sound, his shrunken shoulders trembling slightly.

Chi Xinsu glanced at her, and his voice was a little softer: "What do you mean by letting it catch up with the birds and return to its mother immediately?" ”

"Huh?" Bai Muxing woke up like a dream, blinked her eyes, and realized that Chi Xinsu would not pursue her faux pastime, so she breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "It's not really that it can catch up with the birds......

As she spoke, she took out a piece of jade pendant from her arms: "This is a mirage of Yuezhi, which can summon mist to create dreams, I just want to use this to create a good dream for the birds to go home." ”

Chi Xinsu asked curiously, "How can jade create dreams?" Have you tried? ”

Bai Muxing nodded: "The dream of the mirage is woven by the person who masters the jade, in the mirage you are the leader of the dream world, and you can get everything you want in the dream." ”

She pursed her lips and smiled embarrassedly: "I often use mirage in Yuezhi to dream, and in my dreams I can go back to Dashun, do morning classes with my mother, chant and read. Now that my dream has come true, this mirage is less useful, but I didn't expect it to come in handy today. ”

As she spoke, she held the mirage in one hand and gently held the bird in the other, and in just a few breaths, a faint mist rose out of thin air, and the bird on the cushion closed its eyes and lay down meekly on the cushion.

Chi Xinsu was stunned: "It's in a dream?" ”

Bai Muxing didn't answer, but the state of the bird answered Chi Shinjuku's question.

Its little brain rubbed against the cushion, and its little black paws kicked and kicked, and from time to time it opened its tender yellow beak and made a pleasant chirp.

It was back to the flock, back to the mother, in a mirage-made dream.

The next day is the first watch, Kavin, wait for me to sort it out, when it is straightened out, it may be restored to the second watch.
