After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Chapter 44: Bai Zhi Reunites with Her Old Horse

Si Jiu doesn't remember much about his last impression of that night.

I only remember that he seemed to shed a lot of tears, and I heard someone sighing softly.

Then he was held by the shoulders and lay down on the pillow with her.

The man carefully wiped away the tears that had slid into his ears, and then gently held him in his arms.

Not until that man's breath completely surrounded him, he felt that he could finally breathe a little in this dark world.

"Go to sleep. You're very tired today." The man whispered in his ear.

She even patted his back and stroked his hair as if she was coaxing a child.

He slept that night in such incomparable peace of mind.

I don't even know when to blow out the lights.

He slept soundly until dawn in the darkness that had been unbearable before.

The next day, when Si Jiu woke up, he felt more relaxed than ever before.

Only then did he realize that his face was still buried in Wen Baizhi's arms.

Even his hands were on her waist.

He slowly rose from her arms.

Today is the first day of the official start of the autumn hunt, and he has to rush to serve in front of the emperor.

Wen Baizhi was still sleeping.

But perhaps she was used to the feeling of Si Jiu in her arms, and she woke up as soon as he moved slightly.

When I woke up, I saw Si Jiu standing in front of the screen.

He had taken off his undershirt from yesterday and was now wrapping a new strip of cloth around his abdomen.

After all, he was too weak due to his illness to wrap it as tightly as yesterday, and he couldn't even tie a knot.

But he didn't want Ping An to come in and see Wen Baizhi sleeping.

Just when he was in a dilemma, Wen Baizhi stood quietly behind him without him noticing.

"Do I have to wrap this strip of cloth around my waist today? I saw your abdomen was all red yesterday."

As soon as Wen Baizhi spoke, all the strips of cloth in Si Jiujing's hands fell to the ground.

After a long while, he whispered, "I have something important to do today, so I must get involved."

He stood stiffly without moving, his upper body naked, with his back to Wen Baizhi.

Wen Baizhi bent down to pick up the piece of cloth, dusted it off, and stood up again.

I saw Si Jiu’s abdomen yesterday, and this morning I saw his back.

It felt the same as she had felt before through her clothes.

The butterfly bones on both sides of Si Jiu's shoulder blades were protruding, as if they were about to break through the skin and fly away.

The rest of his body is also skinny, with a bulging back, making him a good subject for skeleton teaching.

Wen Baizhi couldn't help but smile. Seeing that he was still frozen in place, she said, "Let me help you." She paused, "Is it too abrupt for me to do this? But I saw that you didn't wrap the strips of cloth, so I was so presumptuous."

Si Jiu shook his head which felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

After getting his permission, Wen Baizhi stepped forward and said, "Then I'll start."

Wen Baizhi wrapped the strip of cloth around his abdomen again and again, making it the same width as yesterday.

During this process, she inevitably put her arms around his waist several times.

It looked like an intimate hug between the two of them.

Both of them blushed.

After completing the last circle, Wen Baizhi walked in front of Si Jiu.

"I'm going to tie you up now."

Si Jiu nodded.

Wen Baizhi then tied the two strips of cloth together with force.

Maybe it was because of her little girl mentality, she even came out with a bow tied in her hair.

But she is a girl after all, and her strength is not as great as Ping An before, so she didn't wrap it as tightly as before, and there was a slight tendency for it to slip down.

But Si Jiu really enjoyed that moment.

I also cherish the strips of cloth made by Wen Baizhi very much.

He put on the clothes at the back one by one.

This was not the first time Wen Baizhi had seen Si Jiu in official uniform.

But for some reason, when Wen Baizhi saw him in his official uniform today, he felt that he was very eye-catching and handsome.

After Si Jiu had changed everything, he said to Wen Baizhi, "It's still early, you can still sleep a little longer."

Wen Baizhi shook her head: "No, I went to bed early with you yesterday, and I'm already full."

Speaking of yesterday, Si Jiu's ears turned red again.

"Then you should ask Cuizhi to prepare breakfast for you later. You can go out for a walk after breakfast. There will be many people participating in hunting competitions today. You can't go to places that are too far away because it could be dangerous. But you can go to the racecourse not far from here to have fun, or you can find a horse to ride for fun."

Wen Baizhi agreed one by one: "I am not a child anymore, I know how to protect myself, and I still have the dagger you gave me."

Si Jiu was still worried and said, "If you must go out, you can take the dagger and find any of the people from the East Factory. They will protect you. I will probably be back very late today, so you must protect yourself."

Wen Baizhi smiled as she watched him nagging like this: "I didn't expect the dagger you gave me would be so useful. I see, Lord Governor, why didn't I know you were so worried before."

Si Jiu knew that she had always been a sensible person, so he felt a little relieved and walked out of the tent.

Before leaving, he turned back and gave one last reminder: "I will be back very late, so you must not run around."

Wen Baizhi pushed him out: "Got it, I promise I'll be in the tent when you come back."

Only then did Si Jiu leave with peace of mind.

After he left, Wen Baizhi immediately withdrew the smile from her face.

After she had a simple breakfast, she took Cuizhi out.

Even if Si Jiu hadn't mentioned going to the racecourse just now, she would have gone there anyway.

The reason was simple, but she found out that Major General Shen Junce, who had fought with her three years ago, was punished to come here to take care of the horses after returning to Beijing.

No one knows better than Wen Baizhi how powerful Shen Junce is in combat.

But he was punished to this point, there must be something fishy behind it.

She was going to try to find out the truth.

Before she died, she kept a long note written in blood with the names of all the fallen soldiers in her arms.

She also wanted to ask Shen Junce where Wen Bai's body was transported and how it was handled after he died in battle three years ago, and where the blood letter went.

Today is the first day of autumn hunting, so there are a lot of people outside.

Wen Baizhi carefully avoided the crowd and went to the racecourse.

I saw that there were already quite a few people riding their horses on the field.

Thinking back to the day, she was in the same situation, she even owned the best horse in the world.

Wen Baizhi suppressed her bitterness and asked Cuizhi to wait for her outside to keep her out for some fresh air.

She walked to the back by herself.

In the open space at the back, there was a long row of horse stables.

Naturally, there are many horses in the stable.

Wen Baizhi glanced at the horses one by one.

Suddenly the horse in the corner caught her attention.

She walked towards the corner in disbelief.

It was not until she walked up to the horse that she realized that this horse was her own war horse.

Chasing the wind.

Wen Baizhi subconsciously covered her mouth and looked at Zhuifeng with wide eyes.

Zhuifeng is still as strong and beautiful as he was back then.

Wen Baizhi couldn't believe that she would see the horse here that she thought she would never see again.

She reached out and touched Zhuifeng's head.

Zhuifeng originally just looked at her quietly, but when she touched his head, he rubbed her palm naturally as before.

He even licked her cheek with his tongue.

"What a chase, what a chase, I thought I would never see you again."

Just as she was still immersed in the joy of reuniting with Zhuifeng, a cold male voice interrupted her.

"Who are you and why are you here?"
