Chapter 124 - Sorry Xiaoxiao. I Can’T Allow You To Stay Here. (3)
Cheng Shizhao knocked on the table and said, Xingzhi, why are you distracted? Look at your foolish smile. Did you hear me talk or not?
Yu Xingzhi snapped out of his trance and said, Cousin, sorry for being distracted.
Cheng Shiqi said with a sullen face, Fifth brother Yu, could you have gotten sister-in-laws illness? You have been laughing by yourself recently and you seem to look even scarier than before.
Cheng Shizhao slapped his head and said, Whats this nonsense? Take care of yourself first. How many times have I told you guys to not interact with the merchants? Especially the merchants who travel between Liao country and our country. Who knows if there is a spy in Qidan.
Cheng Shiqi covered his head and said, But those merchants have traveled everywhere and they have knowledge in a lot of things. We can gain more knowledge just by listening to them chatting about all sorts of scenery and people around the world. Has anything happened in Qidan? Didnt Da Jin just resume trading with the cities?
Those barbarians are shameless and sneaky. After losing once, they appeared to act peaceful with Da Jin, but in reality, they have evil tricks in the sleeves of their hands. Lately, there are traces of Qidan spies in the capital and we dont know what the barbarians are planning. We have to be on the alert.
Yu Xingzhi said, The Emperor ordered me to strengthen the security in the capital because of this as well.
As they were talking, they heard knocking.
Yu Tong walked in and said, Report to fifth lord, sister Juanzi said that everything is well with Lady and shes asleep. She said for you to not worry for her.
Yu Xingzhi replied, Tell Juanzi to take care of Lady and I will be over right now.
Yu Tong walked away.
Cheng Shizhao suddenly thought of something and knitted his eyebrows, saying, Xingzhi, you were just talking a walk on the street in the capital, but Lin Bingren ended up kidnapping you to Sichuan out of nowhere. I feel like things arent that simple and someone mustve leaked your whereabouts. Did you inspect everyone in the residence?
Yu Xingzhi said in a gloomy voice, Ever since that happened to me, father and elder brother were furious and already looked through the entire State Duke Residence. There were a few servants who leaked my whereabouts, but we didnt find the rest.
Late at night, Yu Xingzhi laid on bed and Zhou Xiaoxiao hugged him, remaining quiet.
Yu Xingzhi detected Zhou Xiaoxiaos unusual emotions and asked, Xiaoxiao? Whats the matter today?
Zhou Xiaoxiao touched his face and didnt say anything.
Yu Xingzhi acutely felt something was wrong and he said, Xiaoxiao, whats the matter? Why arent you telling me?
Zhou Xiaoxiao drew on his chest and slowly wrote: Im fine.
Yu Xingzhi sighed, talking in a gentle but serious tone, Xiaoxiao, you told me that we were going to walk shoulder to shoulder in the past and help one another. Although Im not as determined as you, Im not a weak man either. If something is bothering you, tell me.
She drew circles on his chest and slowly wrote: Xingzi, where is the elder princess?
The elder princess went on vacation and she hasnt come back to the capital yet. Do you want to ask her how to come back?
I, I cant find a way back here.
Yu Xingzhi sucked in a breath and gradually said, Xiaoxiao, dont be so impatient. The fact that we are able to be one another right now is very good. Lets work together and search for a solution. I believe that one day, we can find a solution and reunite. I have been sending people to search for elder princess and once I get any information, I will let you know.
She wrote: elder princess is from the same world from me. If you end up seeing her, tell her that I visited her family. Her family has been doing well and her brother misses her a lot.
Yu Xingzhi was suddenly afraid. He could detect Xiaoxiaos feelings for her friends and family. But, he had no other ways to keep her here.
He rolled over and tightly hugged his beloved, frantically kissing her.
Sorry Xiaoxiao, I cant allow you to stay at home. I really cant live without you.
