After rebirth, I kidnapped the sickly Dugong

Wen Baizhi saw Si Jiu crying in the mirror.

She squatted beside Si Jiu and looked up at his tearful eyes: "Oh, oh, our little Zijin is crying again. He must be hungry. It's okay. Sister will take you to have breakfast later."

Listening to her joking words, Si Jiu seemed to have returned to three years ago, when Wen Bai always joked with him.

He burst into laughter and said, "I am indeed hungry. Please, Sister Wen, take me to eat something delicious."

Wen Baizhi pulled him up and said, "You were too injured yesterday. You need to eat something soft this morning. I asked Cuizhi to make some very soft fish soup noodles. You can try it later."

Si Jiu didn't doubt it and sat down at the table expectantly.

Wen Baizhi carefully checked that there was no fish bone inside, then pushed the noodles to him.

"Try it, Cuizhi's cooking skills are amazing now."

Si Jiu picked up a piece of noodles with chopsticks: "You can eat, she can cook."

Wen Baizhi also had a bowl of fish soup noodles in front of her, but hers was filled with a lot of fresh fish balls.

"That's right. I often have something I want to eat, and as long as I tell Cuizhi, she can make it for me."

She slurped a mouthful of noodles and took a bite of fish balls.

"It's delicious. Really delicious. Fresh and tender. The noodles are just the right amount. Eat as much as you want."

Si Jiu had actually just taken a bite: "It's really delicious. At least my stomach didn't reject it. I even felt warm."

Wen Baizhi was busy eating noodles and had no time to reply him.

Si Jiu felt that her eating habits were very appetizing, so he actually watched her eat the noodles and ate half a bowl himself.

After dinner, Si Jiu asked Wen Baizhi what plans she had for the day.

Wen Baizhi was rubbing Si Jiu's stomach. Hearing this, she replied, "I think he will go find my friend."

Si Jiu's back stiffened: "It's good. You seemed very happy when you mentioned this friend."

Wen Baizhi smiled and said, "Because I really didn't expect to meet my old friend again, and I have something to ask him."

Si Jiu forced himself to remain calm and said, "If you want to drink with friends, bring Ping An with you. Ping An has some martial arts skills."

Wen Baizhi asked: "But hasn't Ping An been following you? Last night too, you actually left Ping An to me."

Si Jiu said: "I don't need him to serve me now. This place is not like Kyoto. It's better for him to stay with you."

Wen Baizhi had no choice but to accept: "Okay, I know that as long as I'm safe, you can rest assured. If you're alone, you have to take good care of yourself, okay?"

Si Jiu laughed: "I am always serving in front of the emperor, how can there be any danger?"

Wen Baizhi said: "Anyway, it's always right to be careful about everything. Who can guarantee that they will never have an accident?"

Si Jiu: "You are right, I will pay attention."

The two parted ways after lunch.

Si Jiu returned to serve the emperor, while Wen Baizhi went to find Shen Junce.

Cuizhi remained outside to keep watch, while Shen Junce took Wen Baizhi to his own residence.

Shen Junce was a little embarrassed: "It's a bit shabby here."

Wen Baizhi didn't think so at all: "Have you forgotten the time when we were chasing the enemy? When things were going well, we slept against a big tree, and when things were not going well, we slept directly in the rain."

Shen Junce led her to the table and sat down: "That's true. At that time, I only thought about killing more enemies and making contributions to Dacheng. I never thought about myself."

It even caused Wen Bai to lose his life. Of course, Shen Junce only thought about this in his heart.

"Yes, our goals were simple back then, and every day was fulfilling," she couldn't help but sigh, "but it was only later that I realized how the country we fought so hard for was actually harming us behind the scenes."

Shen Junce's pupils trembled: "What does this mean?"

Wen Baizhi didn't have much evidence at the moment, and she was even worried that it would affect Shen Junce, so she had to speak.

"I don't have enough evidence to prove it, but I'm still collecting it."

She got down to business: "Jun Ce, I came to you to ask you something."

Shen Junce said sternly: "I will tell you everything I know."

Wen Baizhi said thoughtfully: "You know, I have no family left, so I want to know who took my body back after I died in the battle."

Shen Junce didn't expect her to ask this question.

But he knew that she must have her reasons for asking this.

"It was Si Jiu who took your body away."

"What! You said it was Si Jiu? How is that possible? He was just an unpopular bastard at that time. He couldn't even protect himself. My body is thousands of miles away. How could he do that?"

Wen Baizhi was full of disbelief.

Shen Junce didn't believe it either, but it was true.

"At that time, the news of your death was immediately sent back to Kyoto. Four days later, Si Jiu led a small group of people to the border. He actually came on horseback. He ran for three days without sleep for a seven-day journey.

He almost rolled off the horse, and I thought he was going to die when I saw him like that. But he persisted, and even without our support, he crawled to your body by himself.

For some reason, he didn't shed a tear at that time, but I saw infinite sadness on his face.

After that, for some reason, he even stayed in the coffin with you for three days. During those three days, he didn't eat or drink. I thought he would not come out alive.

But he persisted and was pulled out of the coffin by the people sent by His Majesty to follow him.

After that, I heard that he even wanted to have a ghost marriage with you. Although he was an unfavored child in the Marquis' Mansion, he was still a member of the Marquis' Mansion. How could the Marquis agree to such a thing?

I heard that he was severely punished for this, and was later expelled from the Marquis' Mansion and removed from the Si family tree, only in exchange for his ghost marriage with you.

I don't know much about what happened later, but I only know that he became a governor, a favorite of His Majesty, and a thorn in the eyes of others."

Wen Baizhi had been listening to his narration quietly, but she felt herself getting colder and colder.

Many things can be connected at this moment.

Therefore, the reason why Si Jiu’s property was not confiscated together was because he had been kicked out of the family tree long ago.

Maybe he was hiding a lot from her.

But all she saw at this moment was that fool who traveled thousands of miles just to see a dead person for the last time.

Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Shen Junce asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

Wen Baizhi gritted her teeth: "I'm fine," she asked again, "Do you have any wine?"

Shen Junce said: "Yes, there are some, but they are not good wines. They are not good to drink and can easily make you drunk."

Wen Baizhi said: "It's okay, any wine will do, as long as it's wine."

She felt a chill creeping up from deep within her soul, and she couldn't wait to suppress it with wine.

Shen Junce quickly found the wine.

The two of them drank together as they did before.

Wen Baizhi didn't say anything and just drank cup after cup.

My face was getting redder and my head was getting more dizzy.

By the end, she was drunk and dizzy, her body swaying from side to side.

When Shen Junce saw her like this, he wanted to help her several times, but he didn't dare.

Just when she mustered up the courage to support her.

A cold male voice appeared: "What do you want to do to my wife?"

He turned around and saw that the person standing at the door was Si Jiu.
