Chapter 133: He Was Outside My Courtyard?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Not only that, but the little peregrine falcon was also very considerate. It was relatively large, and Bai Xianyu’s hand could barely accommodate one of its claws. It stepped on its other claw and obediently leaned over again.

Bai Xianyu stroked its head and wings and smiled. “Be good. I’ll make you something delicious later.”

“Wuu!”

Xie Xingyun stared at her smile with a gentle gaze.

Xiao Zheng clicked his tongue in wonder. It seemed that this Miss Bai was quite fated with their residence. Not only Young Master, but even the little beast raised by Young Master liked her so much.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the bead curtain. “Young Master, the carriage is ready.”

Bai Xianyu glanced at Xie Xingyun and happened to meet his gaze. “Then I’m leaving.”

“Yeah.”

Xiao Zheng sent Bai Xianyu out and specially used an unmarked carriage. At this moment, Bai Li was already sitting on the horse in front of him and looking at Xiao Zheng with an unfriendly gaze.

Xiao Zheng was very familiar with him. He smiled as he went up and patted his shoulder. “Brother Bai, I’ll leave Fifth Miss Bai to you.”

Bai Li glanced at him coldly. “Do 1 need you to say that?”

Bai Xianyu had brought Bai Li along when she came. When she entered, she asked him to stand guard outside the door. Because of her identity, Bai Xianyu often brought Green Pearl with her. Many people were familiar with her. She had to keep a low profile when she came to the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor.

Xiao Zheng did not care. He was still smiling, but when he looked at Number Two, his expression was as if he was marrying off his daughter.

He had raised it from such a tiny size. It could be said that he had painstakingly raised it. Young Master just gave it away just like that. Sigh…

After the two of them and the bird left, Xiao Zheng went back to report.

In the water pavilion, Xie Xingyun stood behind the table and smoothed the rice paper with his palm. On the rice paper, the beauty who was supported by her arm on the couch was lifelike. Xiao Zheng subconsciously wanted to take a look, but the man’s cold gaze swept over, and Xiao Zheng immediately lowered his head.

However, he could not help but feel curious. Usually, he would help to dry the paintings drawn by Young Master. What was drawn on it today? No matter how he tried to look at it, he would not let anyone see it.

“Sent them away?”

“Yes.”

“Have you eaten the thousand-year-old Lingzhi I brought you last time?”

Before Bai Xianyu could say a word, Ji Shuang said a few words in a row. Her heart warmed slightly as she said, “Not yet. I was taking medicine a few days ago, so it’s not convenient. I’ll eat some to nourish myself when I get back today.”

A few days ago, when Ji Shuang heard that there had been an assassination attempt on her,she immediately came to Pear Fragrance Court with a lot of tonics in her hands. However, she was unconscious at that time and did not see her. A few days later, she was brought to the Northern Garrison Marquis Manor by the Eldest Princess. The two of them kept missing each other.

“Are you alright?”

“I’m fine. I’m in good spirits.”

Ji Shuang raised her eyebrows excitedly. “Then shall we go hunting today? Let’s go to the hunting ground at Mingde Gate. I wanted to go alone today. Since you’re here, shall we go together?”

Seeing that she was so expectant, Bai Xianyu could not say no. She just looked at her in confusion. “Didn’t Eldest Princess Jing An tell your grandfather about you slashing Xie Xingyun that day? He actually didn’t punish you?”

A trace of slyness flashed across Ji Shuang’s eyes, and her expression was indifferent. “My grandfather is not in the capital yet. She dispatched someone to spread the news. The letter in that person’s hand…”

“has been replaced by me.”

Bai Xianyu,”…”

Ji Shuang did not take it seriously and laughed, “Alright, let’s go now. I still want to compete with you in archery. 1 remember that I was always inferior to you when 1 was young. Don’t go easy on me this time. Let me see how well I’ve been practising.”

Bai Xianyu laughed helplessly and turned to Green Pearl. “Go back and tell my Third Brother that it’s fine for Bai Li to follow me today, you don’t have to follow me.”

Green Pearl nodded in agreement.

Ji Shuang brought Bai Xianyu to get two bows and arrows and prepared two horses and a team of servants.

“By the way, did Xie Xingyun save you when you were attacked the last time?” Ji Shuang asked.

Bai Xianyu’s long eyelashes fluttered. “Yes.”

“All… It’s really him.”

Bai Xianyu answered her and felt that something was wrong. Emperor Wu Xuan had given the order to save her that day, and all the ministers had kept quiet. How did Ji Shuang know?

“How do you know it’s him?”

Ji Shuang said casually, “On the day you fell into the water, 1 went to look for you and saw him walking out of your courtyard drenched. The scholar’s red robe had turned dark red, so I guessed.”

Bai Xianyu was stunned. “He was outside my courtyard?”

“Yes, don’t you know?” Ji Shuang looked at her strangely. “Your Third Brother was there too. The two of them seemed to have said something. Xie Xingyun seemed to have given your Third Brother something..”
