Looking at Ah Jiu who was sleeping soundly in his arms, Lin Pingzhi did not wake her up. Maybe it was because she had been frightened too much tonight, or maybe it was because of the knot in her heart. When Ah Jiu leaned in Lin Pingzhi's arms, she could feel a sense of comfort that she had not seen for a long time. She was a little nervous at first, but she didn't After a while, I couldn't resist the fatigue of my body and slowly closed my eyes. In order not to wake her up, Lin Pingzhi deliberately controlled the frequency of his feet to make his body as gentle as possible.
"Ajiu, wake up?" Lin Pingzhi called softly. Ah Jiu opened his eyes in a daze and saw Lin Pingzhi's face very close to hers, calling him. He found that he was still lying in his arms and was about to get down. She looked at the traces of her own saliva that seemed to remain on the other person's chest and skirt, and felt extremely embarrassed: "I'm sorry, Brother Lin, I couldn't hold it back just now and fell asleep."
"It doesn't matter." Lin Pingzhi smiled and shook his head. His mind was in a trance. Who was the last girl who drooled in his arms? He rubbed his forehead, trying to clear the confusing thoughts from his mind.
This episode caused the two of them to fall into silence. Lin Pingzhi continued to lead Ah Jiu forward with slow but firm steps.
After a while, Lin Pingzhi's expression became solemn and he said, "We have arrived near Wei Xiaobao's residence, but it seems we can't go back."
Ah Jiu raised her head and saw a familiar scene before her eyes. This was obviously Wei Xiaobao's house. It was already surrounded by officers and soldiers. A large number of officers and soldiers were surrounding the door of the house. Lin Pingzhi frowned. She saw that the leader was Duolong, and Su Quan was confronting him at the door. He quickly took Ah Jiu's hand and said, "I'll find a place to settle you first. Don't come out these days."
Ah Jiu's heart was surging, and she subconsciously held Lin Pingzhi's hand tightly to feel his warmth and perseverance. They nervously walked around the officers and soldiers in front of the Wei Mansion, and finally found a quiet place.
Lin Pingzhi gently pushed aside a patch of grass, revealing a small hut, which was simple but clean and tidy. He comforted Ah Jiu and said, "This is a place I often come to. Although it's a little simpler, it should be able to avoid pursuit for the time being."
Ah Jiu nodded silently and stared into Lin Pingzhi's affectionate eyes. She could feel his care and protection for her. An inexplicable emotion surged in her heart, making her feel warmer.
Seeing her like this, Lin Pingzhi smiled and said softly to Ah Jiu: "Ah Jiu, don't think too much."
Ah Jiu was deeply moved and stared at Lin Pingzhi, understanding his importance in her heart. She gently held Lin Pingzhi's hand back, expressing her gratitude and dependence.
However, at this time, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the distance. After Lin Pingzhi settled Ah Jiu, he disappeared into the night in a flash.
...
When Lin Pingzhi entered the Imperial Study Room and looked at Kangxi on the dragon chair, his heart moved and he couldn't help but think of Brother Miao's operation last night...
Seeing Lin Pingzhi come in, Kangxi was dissatisfied and said: "Xiao Guizi, your grandfather's, why did it take so long to come back to report to me? Is there something interesting that makes you obsessed with it and you can't bear to come back?"
Lin Pingzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He never expected that Kangxi would just say this when he came up. He could only explain in Wei Xiaobao's tone: "Hey, Xiao Xuanzi, it's a long story. This time Xiao Guizi's life is almost over." He raised his hand as if wiping sweat.
Kangxi asked curiously: "Oh? What is going on?"
Lin Pingzhi elaborately described his thrilling experience of being assassinated, being besieged twice in Huashan, and finally escaping.
Lin Pingzhi narrated in detail, his eyes revealing deep worry and uneasiness. His voice was trembling, as if he was reliving those thrilling moments. His fingers trembled slightly, unconsciously expressing the fear in his heart.
Kangxi, on the other hand, listened quietly, nodding his head to express understanding with a solemn expression. His brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes flashed with thought. Concern and worry for Lin Pingzhi can be seen on his face. Sure enough, Kangxi's emotions were completely aroused by him. He was trapped in the palace on weekdays, how could he have the opportunity to be exposed to so many exciting things, and he listened with joy.
After listening to Lin Pingzhi's narration, Kangxi took a deep breath, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He spoke slowly: "Xiaobao, your experience this time is indeed not easy, but your ability to escape and come back safely proves that you are my lucky general. I am very satisfied with your growth."
Kangxi's voice revealed his appreciation and encouragement for Lin Pingzhi. At the same time, his expression gradually became relieved and relaxed, as if he believed that Lin Pingzhi could cope with what was coming next.
When Lin Pingzhi heard Kangxi's words, he quickly imitated Wei Xiaobao and pretended that a warm current surged in his heart, feeling Kangxi's recognition and trust in him. His eyes were even slightly moist, and he bowed deeply to Kangxi and said: "Thank you for the emperor's compliment. I am really ashamed of it. I am willing to do my best to serve the emperor."
Kangxi smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, patted Lin Pingzhi's shoulder gently, and said, "Okay, Xiaobao, you did a good job this time."
Lin Pingzhi couldn't help but sigh that Kangxi was really at ease with Wei Xiaobao. He had just experienced such a dangerous assassination last night, and now he didn't mention it at all. He had already prepared to break up with him, but now it seems that he has no intention at all. necessary.
Kangxi asked arrogantly: "Xiao Guizi, how are you doing with your martial arts? Let me find you a teacher to guide you." Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi sighed helplessly in his heart, and Kangxi was indeed fighting. This idea. Although Kangxi pretended to be a teenager, how could Lin Pingzhi not know his true thoughts? It's just that he wants to find someone to test his strength.
Lin Pingzhi continued to fight for the final struggle in his unique tone. He replied: "Forget it, Xiao Xuanzi, you are surrounded by masters. They will definitely beat Xiao Guizi to pieces."
Seeing Lin Pingzhi's response, Kangxi couldn't help but brighten his face, but he still said resolutely: "No, it's too risky for you to go out this time. I must find someone to teach you martial arts seriously. You can't take it lightly. "
"Okay." Lin Pingzhi continued to pretend to be in pain and helplessness, "But Xiao Xuanzi, you have to ask them to be merciful..."
"That's definitely not what you are thinking, Xiao Guizi," Kangxi saw through Lin Pingzhi's expression and sneered, "Huh, if you lose today, just wait for heavy bleeding."
As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, he clapped his hands. When Lin Pingzhi came to his senses, a figure had already walked out of the shadow of the beam in the imperial study. Taking a closer look, Lin Pingzhi cursed in his heart, this person was none other than the old eunuch who fought with him last night.
"A shady guy, a quickie."
