Non-stick clothing

Chapter 10 Martial Law

The next day, when Duan Changge woke up, the sky was getting brighter.

Yue Zi looked very good-looking when he was sleeping, well-behaved, and even the loose hair was not messed up after a night.

Duan Changge wondered if she hadn't moved all night.

Dongfang Weibai, Duan Changge didn't intend to go back to sleep, she pinched the edge of the quilt and got up cautiously.

There was a rustling sound of the cloth rubbing against the quilt, and Duan Changge felt a chill on his neck, and was pressed on the bed.

It was Yue Zilin's hand, icy cold, like cold jade.

She looked down at Duan Changge from a high position, her coat couldn't cover most of her collarbone, and her shoulders were too round to catch the cloth.

If it wasn't for being tied around the neck, Duan Changge would be happy to watch it.

There was a faint fragrance on Yue Zilin's body.

The smell of blood mixed with it.

Logically, the scent should dissipate after bathing, but the scent of the smoke seemed to soak into her bones, and it couldn't be wiped off no matter how much she wiped it off.

"Yue Zi Lin." Duan Changge pressed Yue Zilin's hand to prevent the other party from strangling her to death, "It's me."

"It's you." Yue Zi said, she took her hand away.

Duan Changge rubbed his neck.

"Why did you get up so early?" Yue Zilin frowned.

"I don't want to sleep anymore." Duan Changge said.

"Lie." Yue Zilin said, "Are you going to do something shameful behind my back?"

Duan Changge thought for a while and said, "Does eating count?"

Yue Zilin seemed to wake up completely at this time, and asked, "What do you eat?"

Duan Changge didn't know whether to laugh or cry, seeing the water in Yue Zilin's eyes, his expression was dazed, and he said: "Fish slices with milk sauce, wild duck with eight treasures, golden bergamot rolls, dragon beard noodles - naturally it is impossible, eat whatever you have."

Yue Zilin looked at her without blinking, then kicked her.

Duan Changge grabbed her ankle all at once.

Every skin on Yue Zilin's body was cold, which probably had something to do with the inner strength she had practiced. It was cold and pale, and Duan Changge could see the blue veins on her legs, with fresh blood gushing beneath them.

Duan Changge let go of his hand.

Yue Zilin lay back on the bed again, and lazily said: "Remember to bring a serving."

Duan Changge saw that she seemed to have no bones, and said, "Do you want to serve Mr. Zuoshi to dress, eat, and wash up?"

Yue Zilin said: "I don't need you. You can just call that little girl." She was referring to Hu San'er, "I don't dare to work for Mr. Duan, and I like young girls."

There was no ambiguity in what she said, it was like a spirit who devoured people and sucked bones.

Duan Changge looked at her strangely, and said, "The envoy of Yue Zuo wouldn't want to collect yin to replenish yin, would he?"

Yue Zilin grinned, showing two sharp canine teeth, and said, "Of course, I still need to peel the skin and cramps, remove the bone and peel the skin."

"Why a girl of the age of Ji?"

Yue Zilin said, "The meat is fresh and tender." She looked Duan Changge up and down, and said, "You are too old."

Duan Changge's smile stiffened, and he said, "A certain twenty has two."

Yue Zilin closed his eyes and said, "That's too old, Mr. Duan, let's go out."

Her attitude was casual and casual, as if she was treating an old friend she had known for a long time, as if the two had known each other for more than ten years.

After dressing and washing, Duan Changge said, "What taboos does the Zuo envoy have?"

Yue Zilin said seriously: "Scallion, ginger, garlic, Chinese prickly ash, fennel."

Duan Changge said, "Do you eat salt?"

Yue Zilin said: "The lighter the better."

After hearing this, Duan Changge said, "Understood."

"Wait," Yue Zilin called to stop her, and said, "Don't call me Zuoshi outside from now on."

Duan Changge said: "A certain never has."

"Then what did you call me?" She looked at Duan Changge's face and said, "Isn't it my younger sister?"

"No."

"What's that?" She didn't really want to know, but the two of them always went in and out together, so as not to make any mistakes.

"Friends."

Yue Zilin nodded.

Duan Changge went downstairs to order food. Due to years of wars in the border towns, no one has cultivated the land. Most of the food is beef and mutton, and because of the strong smell, it must be supplemented with strong spices. I am afraid that Yue Zilin can't eat any of these things.

It was already dawn at this time, but there was no one in the shop, Hu San'er was lazily standing next to the diners, waiting for orders.

Seeing Duan Changge reading the menu, she was speechless for a long time, and said, "But is there something wrong?"

Not only people from Beijiao came to Qincheng, but also businessmen from Daqi, fugitives, and recipes were written in Beijiao, which has the same origin as the official characters of Daqi, but after hundreds of years of evolution, the fonts on both sides are similar. There are also many differences. Hu San'er thought that Duan Changge couldn't understand the recipes, so Gu You asked.

Duan Changge said: "Is there porridge in the store?"

Hu San'er shook his head and said: "The price of rice in Qincheng is very high, how much is a bowl of porridge? It's not worth it. If the price of porridge is high, people who don't understand will think that we are a black shop."

A clear female voice came from the kitchen, "What black shop? What are you talking about, San'er?"

Hu San'er contradicted: "Cook your meal." After speaking, he remembered sitting a long song, and his face turned red.

Duan Changge laughed and said, "You have a really good relationship with the proprietress of this store, but sisters?"

Hu San'er said: "I don't have such a domineering sister—there is no porridge in the store, but there is broth. I bought two live pigeons yesterday to make the soup. It tastes good with white flour pancakes."

Duan Changge said: "Do you add onion, ginger, garlic and salt to the pigeon soup?"

Hu San'er was puzzled and said, "Naturally, it must be added."

Duan Changge thought for a while, told Hu San'er the dishes she wanted, and then ordered the other party to deliver the dishes.

At three poles in the sun, Yue Zi was about to wake up, and saw a vegetable plate on the table, which contained two white flour cakes, and the hot water in the celadon bowl next to it was still steaming.

Yue Zilin picked up the bowl, took a sip, and then put it down.

The water in the bowl has turned to ice.

……

When Duan Changge came in, Yue Zilin was writing a letter. She sat upright and didn't turn her head when she heard the footsteps.

Of course Duan Changge didn't lean over to see what she was writing, so he sat down and poured himself a cup of tea.

"When are we leaving?" Yue Zi asked.

Duan Changge frowned and said: "Now that Qin City is under martial law, a certain person just went to the city gate. The gate is closed and no one is allowed to enter or leave. There are black armored soldiers guarding and patrolling all around."

"Black Armored Sergeant?" A few words rolled on the tip of Yue Zilin's tongue, and she closed her eyes to hide the brilliance in them.

"But the private army of the royal family?" Duan Changge said.At first, she thought it was going to war again, but the black armor of the sergeants was really different, and the sword she saw was unmatched by ordinary soldiers.

Yue Zilin was slightly surprised, and said: "Master Duan actually doesn't hide any secrets."

"It's speculation," Duan Changge said, "I heard from my father that there is a black-armored army in Beiji called Shuoyue Army. It is a private army of the royal family. Soldiers cannot be summoned by talismans, and they only obey the orders of one person."

Yue Zilin said: "Indeed."

She had planned not to tell, but Duan Changge seemed to trust her wholeheartedly, which was really embarrassing.

She glanced at Duan Changge, is this really the daughter of the world-renowned marshal in white, Duan Sizhi?

The commander-in-chief has made great achievements in military affairs all his life, and no one can compare his conspiracy and military affairs. The daughter of such a legendary figure is actually a fool.

she thought.

Duan Changge didn't seem to know how to be suspicious, which made it difficult for Yue Zilin not to tell her anything.

"The Great Monarch Beiji is now Jiaye...what is he doing here?"

The Shuoyue army only protects one person's safety, and there is absolutely no reason to come out to patrol and handle affairs. Now the only possibility is that the majesty comes here in person, and it is neither low-key nor high-profile. If it is low-key, there is no need for martial law in the whole city. It's not just as simple as martial law in the whole city.

Duan Changge has seen Xiaoqiong, the current emperor of Daqi, go on a tour. Wherever he goes, banners and banners illuminate each other, blocking out the sun.

And Jia Ye didn't tell others that he was coming, even though everyone knew it was him, but there was no such grand scene.

What's more, Jiaye had absolutely no reason to come to Qincheng.

If it is said that it was a personal conquest by the royal family, although the relationship between Daqi and Beijiao has been tense in recent years, it has not yet reached the point where swords are on the verge of breaking out.

"Perhaps," Yue Zilin put down his pen, blew on the wet ink on the paper, and said, "The person who came is not Jia Ye."

"But the opponent can use the Shuoyue Army."

"Shuo Yue's army only surrendered to one person, but they never said that they obeyed the orders of the Great Monarch Beiji." Yue Zi said, she stopped and said no more.

Duan Changge looked at her with a smile in his eyes.

Yuezi folded the paper, put it in the bamboo tube at hand, and said, "What do you want me to do?"

"I am flattered."

"Flattered?" Yue Zilin said lazily, "Aren't we friends?" She glanced at Duan Changge, "Could it be my wishful thinking all this time?"

She opened the window, and there happened to be a pigeon outside, with a round head and a shiny coat, it looked like it had been fed by someone.

She tied the bamboo tube to the pigeon's leg and let it out.

Duan Changge said: "I always thought it was a certain wishful thinking."

If Yue Zilin didn't say anything, she didn't ask, and the two maintained a delicate balance.

"Master Duan's unrequited love has touched me." Yue Zilin smiled and said, "It's been so long, I must give some response."

She smiled, dazzled Duan Changge's eyes.

Duan Changge was about to speak, but heard a commotion downstairs.
