I live in Beihai Jun Nanhai [Rebirth]

Chapter 111 The Silent Confrontation with the Sky Pavilion

He paused, then continued: "I just wanted to take the little bird down to play for a while and then send it back. I didn't leave too far. It was in the small bamboo forest downstairs. When I heard the movement, I hurried back to have a look. Then I saw Brother Huang rolling down the stairs, covered in blood... I was so frightened at the time, I stood there for a long time without recovering, and when I realized that Brother Huang had passed out, I When I heard someone coming, I... ran away."

Shui Jing said: "Then why do you think he saw you?"

Yun Rong was dejected, and recalled earnestly while saying: "Brother Huang seems to be struggling to remember after landing, but he couldn't get up, and then he probably wanted to ask someone for help, so he looked up and looked around. If he doesn't have dazzle... he should be able to see..."

"You're really good," Shui Jing said, "Just stand there and watch?"

"No!" Yun Rong hurriedly defended, "I wanted to help him at that time, but he suddenly...suddenly lay down and didn't move..."

Shui Jing smiled and said, "You thought he was dead?"

Yun Rong rubbed his forehead, felt a little ashamed, nodded and murmured: "I was so frightened at the time, I thought, if he really... died, I would be next to him, even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to clean himself up..."

Shui Jing nodded, it was true, if the prince really died there, there was another prince standing beside him, no matter how you look at it, it would be irrelevant.

Yunrong pursed his lips, lowered his head and continued: "Actually... I hesitated for a while at that time, and decided to go over and have a look. I can't leave him there alone, but when I walked over, I heard something like Someone came, and I panicked again, so... ran away."

Shui Jing raised his hand and patted his head. Although his words sounded contradictory, Shui Jing could almost understand his entanglement in the battle between heaven and man.

It is normal for a seven or eight-year-old child to be frightened when he sees his brother fall from upstairs covered in blood.

If it was a child from an ordinary family, they might not think about anything after being frightened, and would rush over to check on their brother's situation, because they didn't have the worry of "I might be regarded as a murderer".But since I was born in the royal family, everything has become more complicated than it seems. When encountering anything, I have to think, hesitate, and weigh it.

Shui Jing pointed to the chick and asked, "What about it? Where was it then? In your hand?"

Yunrong nodded: "It's always in my hands."

Shui Jing said: "Then if your brother really saw you, he should have seen it too?"

Yunrong nodded again.

Shui Jing thought for a while, and said, "Are you worried that your imperial brother will tell you about seeing you and the chick?"

Yun Rong looked at him: "What do you think?"

Shui Jing raised her eyebrows: "Then your brother is awake now?"

"Yeah," Yun Rong nodded, "I'm already awake, I woke up the next day."

Shui Jing said: "Then has anyone come to interrogate you these few days?"

Yunrong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "No."

Shui Jing smiled and said: "That's all right? If he saw you, suspected you, and wanted to deal with you, he didn't take advantage of the bruises all over his body to get you involved and sell you badly. Would he still wait for the wounds to heal and be alive and kicking?" Is it time to dig up old scores again? Can you still give you such a long time to destroy the 'criminal evidence'?"

"Hmm..." Yun Rong frowned, thinking.

Shui Jing glanced at him, patted his forehead and said, "Maybe you were the one scaring yourself from the beginning to the end, and he didn't see you at all."

Yunrong sighed: "Maybe."

Shui Jing was silent for a while, and then laughed: "It's really interesting, I was just curious why a child like you who is afraid of ghosts came to such a spooky place, I didn't think about anything else, you have to go all out Spit out, why, have you been suffocated these days?"

Yunrong curled her lips: "Anyway, I've already said it, so it's better to have a good time."

Shui Jing raised her eyebrows and said, "Isn't a dead pig afraid of being scalded by boiling water?"

Yun Rong was startled, probably because no one had said that on weekdays, and after a while, he burst into a "puchi" laugh, shaking his body and nodded.

Shui Jing shook his head helplessly, and joked with a smile: "Aren't you afraid that I will go out and talk nonsense now?"

Yun Rong stopped laughing, stared at him for a long time, looked away, took a deep breath and said, "Don't be afraid, I figured it out."

Shui Jing was curious: "What do you want to understand?"

Yunrong looked at him, and said with a sly smile: "Thank you for helping me analyze it just now. If Brother Huang wakes up and says that he saw me in the Sky Pavilion, then you send me and the chick in front of him. That's simply stealing and stealing. But he hasn't said so far, and he may not have seen me at all. If you take me and the chick to claim credit now..."

Yun Rong leaned closer, and said meaningfully: "How do you prove that you didn't steal this chick, but me?"

Shui Jing looked at him quietly for a moment, then hugged his chest and smiled lightly, "Hey, are you trying to take me back?"

Yun Rong raised his eyebrows somewhat complacently, and there was still a little provocation on his childish face.

Shui Jing smiled for a moment, then suddenly narrowed his eyes and whispered: "Guess if I knock you out now, put the chick back in the wooden box next to you, and make some noise to attract people, you will be What's the end?"

Yun Rong's expression froze for a moment, but soon stretched his neck again and said: "I, I can be said to be framed."

"Oh--"

Shui Jing dragged his head in a strange voice and nodded, and said with a smile and blinked: "Then who framed you? Me? Do you know my name? How do you prove that there is such a person as me? How do you prove that I have appeared before?" Ever? Most importantly..."

He imitated Cai Yunrong's meaningful appearance and approached: "At that time, do you still have a chance to prove it?"

Yun Rong was stunned for a moment, then stared and said: "Yes, but what benefits can you get from this?"

Shui Jing shrugged and spread his hands: "I said, I don't need benefits."

Yun Rong said urgently: "Then you are harming others and benefiting yourself!"

"Hush," Shui Jing raised his fingers, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smirk, "Originally, I'm in a good mood, and I'm too lazy to do things that hurt others and benefit myself, but someone threatened me. Not too happy."

Yunrong confronted him for a while, then sighed and confessed, "I was wrong."

After sighing, he lowered his eyes and said, "Actually, I just made sure that you wouldn't say anything, so I had a good fight with you."

"Oh?" Shui Jing was very interested, "How can you be sure?"

Yun Rong pursed her lips, raised her eyes and said, "You know just now when I said that Brother Huang was seriously injured, and me... when you were crying, what was your expression?"

Shui Jing was stunned: "What expression?"

Yun Rong said earnestly, "It's all over the face, 'It doesn't matter, I'll just watch it for fun'."

Shui Jing blinked: "...Really?"

"Well," Yunrong nodded very positively, "I feel like you're watching a joke, you don't care what's right and who's wrong, who's right and who's wrong."

Shui Jing was speechless for a moment, turned his head to think for a while, and murmured: "Is it so obvious?"

Yunrong stared at him: "No, often, obviously, obviously."

Shui Jing glanced at him, brushed off the hem of his clothes, and stood up with the chick: "Okay, it's getting late, go back before it's dark, your clothes look like a I am telling the world that I have evil intentions."

Yun Rong hurriedly got up, patted his butt, pointed at the chick and said, "Then... what about it?"

Shui Jing stretched out his hand and jokingly said, "Why, can't bear it? Why don't you take it back?"

Yun Rong quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no need, I just ask..."

Shui Jing said: "Don't worry about its fate, just worry about yourself."

"Oh."

Yunrong responded dully, and after standing there for a while, he pointed to the cave door behind him: "Then... I just... leave?"

Shui Jing laughed and said: "Otherwise? Say goodbye to Yiyi for a while? Or do you want me to send you back?"

Yun Rong curled her lips, turned around and walked towards the cave door. After walking a few steps, she seemed to think of something again, turned around and stared at the water mirror, and only after a long time could she say: "Thank you."

Shui Jing waved his hand, Yun Rong turned around, paused, then turned back: "Later..."

Shui Jing raised his index finger and interrupted: "Don't meet later, there will be no future."

Yun Rong glared at him with her mouth puffed up, and finally turned around and left quickly.

Shui Jing glanced down at the chick in his hand, then turned around and walked to the well to pick up the small wooden box on the ground.

The wooden box was covered with several layers of thick withered grass by Yunrong, and there were still a few tufts of fine fluff that fell from the chicks on the grass.

Shui Jing gently opened the edge of the grass nest with his fingers, and found that there were several air holes chiseled under the withered grass.

He put the chick into the box, closed the box and listened.The walls of the box are very thick, and once closed, the chirping of the chicks becomes almost inaudible.

Satisfied, he put the box under his arm, looked up at the dark sky, jumped back to the top of the wall, and walked towards the imperial garden.

……

The imperial garden in the evening was extremely deserted, Shui Jing easily avoided a few sporadic palace people, walked around the imperial garden casually, and soon found the newly built Cangqiong Pavilion.

This pavilion is located in the dense bamboo forest in the northwest corner of the imperial garden. A stone winding path passes through the bamboo forest and extends to its feet.

I have to say that the style of this pavilion is really different, so different that Shuijing almost didn't realize that it was a "Pavilion".

Hidden in the bamboo grove and looked from afar, if it wasn't for the fact that there is a ladder leading straight up in the middle of the four pillars, which proves that it has a second floor, Shui Jing even thought it was just a gazebo.

It wasn't until the sight was no longer blocked by the bamboo branches above that when he got closer, Shui Jing could see the whole picture of the "Pavilion".

Well, in fact, it is not much different from the gazebo.

Its entire first floor has only four columns and the wooden ladder in the middle. The shape of the second floor is similar to the roof of the gazebo, with a conical shape and a pointed top, like a huge rice dumpling suspended in the air supported by four chopsticks. , more like the dome house where the herdsmen lived on the Lanzhao Grassland.

It's just that this "Qionglu" is made of wood, and except for the bottom, the rest of the sides are hollowed out with carvings. The size and density of those hollows are controlled very skillfully, which does not affect the appearance, and also ensures that Costin can't get out of it. escape through the gap.

Tsk, such a big and delicate birdcage is really painstaking and ingenious.

Shui Jing secretly sighed in his heart.

His eyes moved back from the second floor to the first floor. At this time, the sky was getting dark. A palace official was using a long pole to hook down the lanterns hanging on the four wooden pillars one by one to light them and then hang them back. Holding the oil lamp, he went up the wooden ladder to the second floor. After a while, the second floor was also glowing with a faint fire.

When the palace man went upstairs, Shui Jing clearly heard a sharp bird call, which was obviously not something that ordinary birds could make, at least it could show that the pair of Hai Dongqing had not been "brought to justice".

After waiting for a while, the palace talent returned from the second floor to the first floor, but he didn't seem to intend to leave. He just sat down by the pillar facing the direction where Shui Jing was standing, and put the oil lamp aside. It is to guard here.

Shui Jing raised her eyebrows, well, then I can only be sorry.

He walked around from the bamboo forest to the opposite side, jumped up lightly, and landed behind the palace man, before the palace man noticed, he raised his hand and slashed, the palace man instantly tilted his body and fainted on the pillar under.

……

After half an hour.

Shui Jing sat cross-legged on the floor of the second floor, put his hands on his knees, and stared at the two Hai Dongqing who were less than a foot in front of him, whose ankles were tied by chains.

In the open space between them, the 130th chick, which was thrown out of the nest by its parents for the sixth time, was still jumping and chirping, fanning the flames of this war without gunpowder.

It was probably because the chick had been taken away for too long, and the body was already stained with a lot of other smells. The pair of Haidongqing only sniffed it when Shui Jing put the chick into the nest for the first time. After that, it was ruthlessly overturned from the nest again and again.

Still not relieved after being overturned, he used his wings to sweep the chicks to Shui Jing. If the chains were not long enough, Shui Jing felt that they might still want to slap their wings on his face and fight him close to hand.

Shui Jing looked back at the stairway not far behind him, and then at the chick not far in front of him, feeling that he now has two choices.

First, go down and wake up the palace guard who is in charge of raising it, and ask him to find a way to stuff this fledgling who cannot recognize its ancestors back into its nest and force its parents to recognize it.

Second, stand up, walk over, pull off the chain, and carry the pair of Haidongqing downstairs to the bamboo forest to light a fire.

Finally, after all kinds of entanglements and choices, Shui Jing chose to stand up, walked over, bent down and picked up the chick on the ground, stuffed it back into the wooden box, and took it back downstairs to leave the hometown and fly away.

Passing through the bamboo forest and out of the imperial garden, the water mirror jumps up and down aimlessly, without stopping or direction.

The chicks don't seem to know that they have been brutally abandoned by their biological parents, and they are still cheering persistently in the wooden box.

When flying up to a roof again, Shui Jing stopped, opened the lid and smiled at the chick and said in a low voice: "Child, do you know? You are an orphan who has just been abandoned, please at least show A little bit of the loss of being an orphan, okay?"

The cry of the chick paused the moment he opened the box, and the little bird tilted its head curiously to see him finish his words, and immediately flapped its wings happily again and started chirping.

Shui Jing sighed helplessly, raised his head and looked around.

This seems to be... the East Palace?
