After running with the ball, he criticized the villain and his hair grew old overnight.

"I saw that both Xiaoqi's parents were dead and had never left the island in their lives. I thought there was nothing wrong with him, so I told him. Is the lady okay?"

Xu Ning's voice was calm, "There's nothing you can't say, just say it. Have you told Yuyou and the others?"

Xiao Cui shook her head, "No, you told me not to talk about Miss Yu with outsiders, but to bury her in my heart."

Xu Ning nodded, "Just remember it in the future."

"Xiao Cui, have you smelled the fragrance of Xiao Qi?"

Xiaocui shook his head, "I didn't notice any fragrance."

Xu Ning didn't say anything more. Xiaocui didn't know their previous identities. She had given instructions, and when anyone asked, she said they were from Crescent City. At night, looking at the faint light outside the window, she felt inexplicably uneasy. , this Xiao Qi always gave her a strange feeling.

Perhaps she had taken too many medicines as a child and was extremely sensitive to the smell and taste of medicines. She comforted herself and thought more before falling asleep.

The next day, Xiaocui sprained her ankle and it was severely swollen. Xu Ning looked at the swollen ankle and frowned, "Why is it so serious and swollen like this?"

Xiaocui burst into tears, "Miss, it hurts so much when I move. Is my foot broken?"

"Don't talk nonsense. It seems that we have to go to the doctor in purple again. We don't have any medicine for sprained feet. You just wait in the room and don't move. I'll call the doctor."

Just as Xu Ning opened the courtyard door and walked out a short distance away, a figure appeared in front of him, "Xiao Ning, where are you going?"

Seeing that the person coming was Xiao Qi, she smiled and said, "Xiao Cui's foot is very swollen. Go buy some medicine to rub it."

Xiao Qi nodded, "She rolled down the hillside yesterday. She must have been seriously injured. I was just about to go see her. This medicine is very useful for sprained feet. You can rub it for her." As he said this, he took a look from his arms. He took out a small porcelain bottle and handed it to her.

Xu Ning took it and her eyes slid over his hand. The other person's fingers were white and clean. They didn't look like people on the island who were used to doing rough work, but more like...

She smiled at him, "Thank you, Xiaoqi."

"Can I go see Xiaocui?" the other party asked.

Xu Ning nodded, and the two of them walked back together, only to hear Xiao Qi casually say, "Xiao Ning, I heard that you guys came here two months ago. You must know what happened outside, right?"

"What happened outside?"

"I have lived on the island since I was a child, and I am quite curious about the outside world. There are also storytellers on the island. I heard that the outside world has changed, but I don't know whether it is true or not."

Xu Ning stopped for a moment, "Why has the situation changed?"

Xiao Qi secretly paid attention to her expression, "I heard that the palace has changed and the regent Wei Zhan has rebelled."

"What!" Xu Ning almost blurted out.

Xiao Qi continued, "Wei Zhan rebelled and forced the palace, killing many people. The late emperor escaped and is now missing. The current emperor of the Jin Dynasty is Wei Zhan, and Prime Minister Xu who has been loyal for many years..."

Xu Ning's face instantly became as white as paper, and she held his hand excitedly, "How is he?"

Xiao Qi spoke slowly, "I heard that he resigned and returned to his hometown, but who knows whether it is true or not. I heard that Wei Zhan and Prime Minister Xu have always been at odds, I'm afraid..."

Xu Ning's heart tightened and she was almost unsteady. It was Xiao Qi who pulled her up. She should have thought that if the regent returned to Kyoto alive, he would definitely not let Wei Jing go. Now that the regent is in power, her father and He has been fighting for so many years. If he ascends the throne, his father may not be able to survive. He is heartbroken, wondering if his father is gone.

Xu Ning was afraid that she would cry next moment, so she held back her words and said, "How do you, a person who has never been out of the island, know so many things?"

Xiao Qi's face remained as usual, "Of course I don't know, it's all what the storyteller said. If you are interested, you can listen to it and pass the time."

Xu Ning nodded, her eyes lowered, and her feet felt a little weak. Xiao Qi helped her again, "Why do you look so ugly? Are you okay?"

Xu Ning shook his head and handed him the medicine in his hand, "Give the medicine to Xiaocui. I want to go for a walk."

After saying that, Xu Ning turned her back and walked forward. The moment she almost turned around, her tears instantly burst into tears. She covered her mouth and couldn't help but choked up. Wei Jing escaped. Yuyou and she faked death and left Kyoto. The regent will definitely be in trouble. Anger, Dad may be in bad luck.

She slowly squatted down and cried bitterly. She bent her knees and knelt on the beach. She faked her death to escape. If her father knew how sad he would be, now his situation is even more difficult. "Dad, my daughter is unfilial."

Xu Ning lowered his head, there was a shadow in front of him, and a low voice came, "What's wrong?"

Song Mo also knelt down in front of her and raised her chin. He saw that her eyes were red and tears were falling down. She looked so pitiful, "Why are you crying?"

Seeing her crying shoulders trembling and feeling heartbroken, Song Mo did not hesitate and pulled her into his arms. Xu Ning leaned on his shoulder and cried loudly. Her cries were painful and repressed, which was heartbreaking to hear. pain.

Song Mo patted her back softly. He just saw her and Xiao Qi together. The two of them behaved intimately. He almost died of anger. He was so angry. Now that he saw her like this, he had no energy at all. She cried weakly and sadly. , Song Mo hugged her as tightly as he could.

Song Mo comforted her and kept talking, "That kid bullied you, didn't he? I'll help you vent your anger, okay? I'll hang him up and let you whip him."

"It's okay, it's okay. Stop crying. If there's anything you can't handle, don't forget that you still have a child. Crying too much is not good for the child."

"Besides, you still have me. I will always be with you. As long as you are willing, my arms will always be open only to you, okay?"

He just stayed with her quietly. I don't know how long it took before she stopped crying. Song Mo looked down at her. The tip of the woman's nose was red and her eyelashes were trembling. She felt so small that it was unstoppable. pity.

He put his hand on her face. She was probably immersed in sadness and didn't answer his words. She just leaned in his arms quietly, a pitiful little girl.

For a long time Xu Ning raised his head and looked at him, "This Xiao Qi doesn't look like someone from the island. He always gives me a strange feeling. Can you keep an eye on him secretly?"

Song Mo frowned when he heard this and nodded, "Okay."

"Why are you crying?"

Xu Ning shook her head, "I just miss home."

Saying that his eyes were red again, Song Mo was a little flustered and hugged her into his arms again, "Okay, okay, stop crying. I won't ask. I order you not to cry, otherwise I will be angry."

What was wrong with his coaxing tone? Xu Ning pushed him away and said, "I'm going home."

Song Mo sent the person back and bumped into Xiao Qi who came out. The other person saw that it was him and said, "Island Master."

Song Mo nodded, "I haven't seen you for a long time, what are you busy with?"

"My parents are gone. Apart from hunting and listening to the storyteller, my life is very boring."
