since your farewell

As Zhou Nan expected, another thief came into the study that night.

What a rampant thief, going in and out of the Princess Mansion is like no man's land, this man's martial arts are above hers, should he be called the Forbidden Army?Just when she was surprised at her hesitation, the thief had already come to her side, and the faint fragrance was indeed from the thief, her heart jumped, and she made a bold guess.

It's not that she has a rich imagination, but that the person who rescued her eight years ago also disguised herself as a man. Because of her impression at that time, "a woman disguised as a man" seemed to be nothing unusual in her mind, even... Most of the companions she asked Mingyue to choose were men with feminine looks, probably because it would make them look more pleasing to the eye.

What's more, can a person really change his temperament in just a few days?

Situ Che buried his head in the pile of memorials, but he couldn't find her fake memorial after searching over and over again. When he looked up by accident, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. The princess was sleeping soundly on top of her memorial, her slender arms It happened to block the row of seals, as if he was about to review the memorial.

Her heart was in her throat, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and steal it. She knew that Her Royal Highness was unusual, and the tricks in the memorial would most likely be exposed.

Regardless of so many etiquettes of monarchs and ministers, she gently raised her arm and pulled out the folds bit by bit. Seeing that she was about to succeed, Zhou Nan seemed to be made uncomfortable by her, frowning and changed his position, and pulled out the fold again. The memorial was pressed back, and it was still lightly placed on her right wrist. The major general was already in a cold sweat, and he knelt on the spot and did not dare to move.

The two were deadlocked like this. To be precise, it was the major general who was deadlocked unilaterally. She waited until the sound of even breathing sounded, and then she slowly pulled out her hand. After stealing the memorial, he fled in a hurry.

This night was particularly long for Situ Che who was tossing and turning, but Zhou Nan, who pretended to be asleep, had no dreams all night.

The next day, Situ Che came to the study tremblingly, saw her memorial put aside in a normal way, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Zhou Nan had a panoramic view of her little movements. He had tried it last night. This person said that she was bold, but now she knew she was afraid; said that she was timid, and the companion in front of her was changed by her, not to mention the gender change, and she dared to impersonate General Situ's handwriting, and the crime was aggravated.

It was probably because the purpose of her approach was not malicious that she let herself be so defenseless. Zhou Nan found a reasonable explanation for her unusual connivance.On this trip to the south, Master was unable to visit him in person because he was far away, and the future was dangerous and unpredictable. If this powerful and harmless big cat could accompany him, the odds of winning would be increased by two points. hands.

"Princess, my servants have gone to check, and no one in the capital has gone to the shop to carve seals in the past two days."

Mingyue leaned over and whispered in her ear, then raised her head and glanced at "Jia Yunqing" who was wandering in a guilty mood,

"However, according to the cook in the dining room, five big radishes were inexplicably missing from the warehouse of the back kitchen yesterday."

An imperceptible smile appeared on Zhou Nan's face, the big cat really has a lot of skills.

The major general was immersed in the joy of becoming the one-tenth that was undiscovered, suddenly he seemed to hear some "radish", and immediately came back to his senses. At this time, Mingyue was about to get up and leave the main hall. She comforted herself that she was guilty of a thief. In addition, people who practice martial arts have excellent hearing, so they may not be able to distinguish reality from auditory hallucinations.

Until a large bowl of radish soup was delivered to her.

"Hey, the princess rewards you",

Mingyue stuffed the bowl into her hands condescendingly, gloating,

"As a return to the rock sugar pear, the princess felt much better after eating it."

Situ Che immediately raised his head to look at Zhou Nan, Zhou Nan looked at her for the first time, and nodded, his cold and indifferent expression made her dispel her worries about being discovered, so she gave up the last chance to escape, completely reduced to A big cat dominated by a small fish.

When she heard Zhou Nan instructing Mingyue to ask for the roster of village officials from the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, she was immediately refreshed, and the plain bowl of radish soup became a delicacy in the world. Although she "visited" the Ministry of Officials once, it seemed Someone erased the name, but there may not be a backup record in the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. All the village officials were dispatched by him, so it is impossible for him to know everything.

The news in the mansion that the princess was going to take two companions to the south quickly spread. I heard that Qiu Ye had been appointed as the companion who stayed with the princess the longest. Situ Che wondered whether this person had anything to do with the princess. What kind of unusual relationship, while trying to reduce my sense of existence, and there are five other people, how could it not be her turn to be such a "bad" companion.

"Brother Jia, the princess likes you very much these days."

Qiu Ye chatted with her, observing her reaction as if nothing. The person in front of him was not as manipulative as he expected, and even became a threat.It's fine if Mingyue didn't drive him away, but the princess called him by name every day to accompany him to read, which is really abnormal.

"It's all thanks to the Rock Candy Sydney",

Situ Che was full of grievances and bewilderment. Since that day, the princess gave her a bowl of carrot soup for three meals a day, and watched her drink it before retracting her eyes. fear.

"It's so good, Brother Jia will be able to walk with the princess with me."

Hearing the temptation in his tone, Situ Che was a little disgusted, just in a bad mood, so he said angrily,

"Sister Mingyue said, don't take me."

"That's a pity",

After getting the news he wanted, Qiu Ye didn't pay too much attention to her emotions, and left after a few words of hypocrisy.

However, within a day, the major general slapped himself in the face.

After Mingyue came back from the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Situ Che was very energetic and followed her conversation with Zhou Nan closely. Who knows——

Mingyue took out a note and presented it to Zhou Nan,

"Master Shangshu wrote the list here."

Zhou Nan was very cautious. She guessed that with Situ Che's skills, she might have gone to the official department for a visit. If not, why would she take the risk to come to her side?To spend so much effort to investigate a small place, there must be something hidden behind it. In order not to startle the snake, she deliberately reported the names of several counties so that people would not notice Jiangping County among them at a glance.

Situ Che wished he had clairvoyant eyes and could see through the blurred handwriting on the paper. After Zhou Nan read them one by one, he threw the note into the brazier with no expression on his face. Don't stop it yourself.

"This trip to the south, I want to stop by to visit this adult who "absconded with money"",

"Yes".

Mingyue glanced at the person who was eavesdropping seriously, and tried her best to suppress a smile.

The hope that Situ Che had just ignited was only a spark. Just now she told Mingyue the recipe of rock sugar pear with "everything regrettable", saying that she could not be with the princess and asked her to take care of the princess. Mingyue readily agreed , Now she is desperate, and she has no reason to want to go.

Seeing the big cat drooping its head, Zhou Nan felt pity for some reason.

Fortunately, Situ Che was only depressed for a moment, and then he pulled himself together and devoted himself to the back kitchen. Thinking about her majestic Major General Zhou, is it possible that she can still lose to a few friends who are not doing business?Since you can't win by force, you can change the way. If you want to win the princess' heart, you have to grab her stomach first.

"Princess, what do you think this Jia... this guy is from?"

Mingyue used silver needles to test the poison of those delicacies, and the warm fragrance tempted her appetite. She followed Zhou Nan and tasted all the delicacies on jade plates in the palace. Although Situ Che's cooking was not as exquisite as the imperial chef's, it was inexplicably fascinating. Salivating, as if the hot air has hooks designed to hook people's stomachs.

"I am also very curious, who has such courage and knows so many "skills"",

Zhou Nan looked at the dishes with great interest, and suddenly wanted to know the real appearance behind the mask. If this person appeared in the world as a woman, she must be a strange woman, and she could hardly be compared with that person. Of course, apart from cooking skills, the The food cooked by people is terrible.

Another point, her mood sank again——

That person doesn't like Beijing.

"The servant still doesn't understand one thing. It's good that the princess needs this person to escort her, but why did Qiu Ye follow her? He's not as simple-minded as Jia Yunqing."

"Ok".

Zhou Nan picked up a pen and dipped some ink. On the day Qiu Ye first came to the mansion, she noticed the existence of this person. And retreat, pick yourself clean.

"Some people stay by their side because of need, while some people have to watch in front of their eyes, so as not to give him a chance to sneak attack from behind."

"Then what if he puts his mind on Jia Yunqing? The servant was stunned when he saw that guy, he doesn't seem like someone who likes to engage in these intrigues."

"You will think about her."

"Princess!"

Mingyue was a little embarrassed, and forcibly argued,

"Cannibalism is short-sighted, this servant is also because of her sincerity towards the princess..."

"Okay, I know that you are the most "fair and just", but if she can't even protect herself, how can she protect me? "

At night, Mingyue took the guards to the side room and informed Jia Yunqing and Qiu Ye to pack their luggage in advance and prepare to go south with the princess.

As soon as she left, the atmosphere in the side room suddenly became weird. Qiu Ye looked at her strangely, and the others were not convinced. Situ Che's face was burning with pain, and he shrank his neck and explained,

"Snow pears with rock sugar... Sydney pears with rock sugar..."

Anticipating that these people wouldn't make her feel better, and that he couldn't reveal his martial arts skills, Situ Che slipped away with the pillow under the pretext of going to the bathroom.

I searched around the princess mansion, thinking about sleeping in the open, and went to the main hall of the study with a chance of luck - she is very familiar with this route, but fortunately the princess finally figured it out and went back to the dormitory She fell asleep, and no one snatched her.

She found a corner where it was not easy to be seen as soon as she entered the door, and she could hear the sounds outside in time. She patted the pillow and placed it on the carpet, lit a stove to keep warm, and lay down comfortably with her arms folded .

She hadn't had a good night's sleep in that side room for the past few days, what her father said was right, once entering the imperial palace, the dangers on these people are much more terrifying than the swords and guns that can be seen on the battlefield.

Closing her eyes, a small figure appeared in her mind. Xiao Xuehua once promised her that if she came to the capital in the future, she would definitely take her on a horse to see the prosperity of the sky. Situ Che had always believed in Xiao Xuehua's words. Undoubtedly, even though she was covered in bruises and shabby clothes at that time, she didn't look like a person who could see all the bustle at all.

"I'm coming to Beijing",

Situ Che curled up and muttered to himself, a drop of sparkling water slipped from the corner of his eyes,

"I can cook",

Xiao Xuehua once said that she is good at everything except cooking, but she doesn't like "except", she wants Xiao Xuehua to praise her for being good at everything.

Now that she has come to the capital, she can cook, but Xiao Xuehua is dead——

It was the tomb she set up with her own hands, and there were no bones left.
