The night is like water, the moon is bright and the stars are few.
At a house in the north of Linxi County, there was a sudden knock on the door.
The knocking on the door was not loud, and in the quiet night, it was only vaguely audible.
Soon, the wooden door opened with a creak.
Outside the door, a group of people in brocade clothes stood under the moonlight and filed into the house.
The house is not big, there is a small courtyard at the entrance and a row of side rooms at the back.
The leader walked a few steps casually, then stood under the eaves of the courtyard corridor, staring at it.
"Suzaku, why are you here?"
Xuanwu heard the commotion, opened the door of the wing, and walked out, his face was startled.
Suzaku is a woman.
A beautiful woman.
She put her hands behind her back and looked at Xuanwu who was walking towards him, with a pale expression on her face.
The hazy moonlight fell on her body, making her feel extremely cold and distant.
"As ordered, kill someone."
After a moment of silence, Suzaku spoke.
Her voice was indifferent, and her tone of voice had no inflection when she spoke. Just like her appearance, she was unapproachable.
But Xuanwu didn't take it seriously.
He knew that Suzaku's temperament was like this.
The four chief supervisors of embroidered clothes have always been hereditary positions.
From father to son, from master to disciple, it is passed down from generation to generation.
Suzakus of every generation are all strange women.
The previous generation of Suzaku was as passionate as fire, enchanting and charming.
Back then, there were countless people in the Xiuyi Guard who had a secret crush on her.
When Xuanwu was a child, he met his predecessor Suzaku. Although she had aged, she could still see the shadow of her youthful splendor.
But this generation of Suzaku is completely opposite to that.
Indifferent, ruthless, and decisive in killing, he is like a thousand-year-old iceberg, never knowing what joy, anger, sorrow, and joy are.
Xuanwu and Suzaku grew up together.
He vaguely had a different kind of feeling for this little sister he had been with since childhood.
"The Governor's order?"
Xuanwu stared at Suzaku and asked, his eyebrows wrinkled without knowing when.
Suzaku was still so concise and concise.
"yes."
The simple word "yes" made Xuanwu's heart suddenly sting.
He still remembered that when he first saw Suzaku, she was still a little girl the size of a pea.
At that time, no matter what she saw, her eyes were always full of curiosity and she always had endless questions to ask.
Xuanwu didn't know since when, this little kid who liked to pester him and ask why, gradually turned into a cold killing machine.
He saw it in his eyes and felt pain in his heart.
But unable to change.
"Captain, how come he..."
Xuanwu frowned, his tone slightly dissatisfied.
The governor is the third prince Xiang Yan.
Ever since Xiang Yan took charge of Xiuyiwei, Xiuyiwei has been busy with endless tasks and killed endless people.
Xuanwu always felt that today's Xiuyiwei seemed to have changed.
This didn't please him.
The Xiuyi Guard should be a weapon of the imperial court, and should not become a personal butcher's knife in the hands of anyone.
While he was busy inquiring about grassland information in the north, Xuanwu never forgot to pay attention to Suzaku.
The bits and pieces of information that came back made him feel even more uncomfortable.
The little Douding who loves to ask why has completely become a killing machine.
Either he is killing someone, or he is on the way to kill someone.
Now, the third prince actually sent her to kill people again?
Xuanwu was very angry.
"The gangsters should be punished."
As if feeling Xuanwu's dissatisfaction, Suzaku was silent for a moment and made an exception to say one more sentence.
If it were anyone else, she might not even bother to explain.
No matter how indifferent she was, she would still remember his goodness.
Soon, the embroidered clothes fanzi arranged accommodation for Zhuque and the embroidered clothes guards she brought.
Suzaku then walked toward the vacated wing.
After taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped.
Turning around, he stared at Xuanwu.
"You help me."
Although she didn't expect to meet Xuanwu in Linxi County, she didn't know why Xuanwu, who was supposed to be in the north, suddenly went south.
But now that she has met him, she doesn't want to let him go.
At least... don't break up so quickly.
It's been a long time since they fought together.
"good!"
Xuanwu's face, which had been roughened by tempering, was covered with a smile and he nodded heavily.
The reason why he went south was to cooperate with the God of War in the north to investigate a military smuggling case.
Now, the man from the Northern God of War has not yet joined him, and he has a lot of private time before their arrival.
Helping Suzaku was very much what he wanted.
Suzaku said no more and went straight into the side room.
Looking at the door that was slammed shut in front of him.
The eyes of Xuanwu, a rugged man, became extraordinarily gentle.
…
"Get up, the sun is shining on your butt."
A clear and sweet voice sounded in the backyard of Sanwei Bookstore.
Mu Qingwan opened her eyes drowsily.
The sunshine today was quite strong, piercing the window paper and shining warmly on her face.
The girl rubbed her eyes, rolled over and got out of bed.
He was calling her, she had to get up quickly.
Push the door open and walk out of the wing.
When she met her, she saw a young man sitting by the railing of the corridor, looking at her with a smile.
The young man held cloth and needlework in his hands.
Although his eyes were no longer on the cloth and needlework, the movements of his hands were not affected at all.
The needles and threads dance gracefully like butterflies, flying up and down.
Very nice.
The girl knew that he was sewing clothes.
She now knows a lot of common sense and won't make jokes anymore.
This is all his credit.
The girl thought sweetly.
"Wanwan, come and wash up."
Ye Wan'er's voice came from beside the well.
The girl responded and Baba walked over.
Ye Wan'er handed over the toothbrush that had been prepared.
Dachu has long had toothbrushes, called toothbrushes.
Although the names are different, the effect is the same.
There are roughly two types of toothbrushes, one is made of pig bristles, and the other is made of bird feathers.
The former is mostly used by ordinary people.
The latter is exclusive to dignitaries.
After the girl brushed her teeth skillfully, she rinsed her mouth.
Then he took the veil again and began to cleanse his face.
Naturally, she didn't understand anything when she was a "wolf", but now that she has "become" a human, she has become very clean.
The girl always remembered what he said.
Being cleaner will make you feel more comfortable, right?
She thought this made sense.
Now, she is very comfortable.
After washing up.
The girl looked at Luo Heng, with an expectant look on her delicate face.
"Eat, hungry."
Girls always look forward to eating.
Regardless of whether there is meat or not.
She is used to living a life without a meal, but now she cherishes food very much.
"good."
Luo Heng stopped what he was doing, stood up, and replied with a smile.
The girl's words were still intermittent.
But that's a habit, and you can change it sooner or later.
Luo Heng felt that she was actually very expressive.
Breakfast is steamed buns and rice porridge.
It’s not rich, but it’s better than most families in this world.
Ye Wan'er ate very gracefully, chewing the bun in her hand.
The girl had a different look, biting and eating.
Such a bold way of eating, paired with her exquisite facial features and curved eyebrows, seemed to have a strange harmony.
The girl ate happily. Although the buns in her hands were vegetarian, they were as delicious as eating meat.
She feels that it doesn’t matter what you eat, it’s who you eat with that matters.
As long as he's here.
Even if it is light rice porridge, she can taste the sweetest taste.
