Xiao Heng still left, stumbling away as if he had lost a battle.

And Qiao Nian sat alone in the room, looking at the dancing candlelight, unable to sleep until dawn.

I thought that after last night's quarrel, Xiao Heng could at least understand that she really didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, but who knew that when Qiao'er and Hui'er came to serve her, they still said " Madame' cried.

Even on the fifth day, Xiao Heng actually moved directly into this house.

Qiao Nian's eyebrows knitted tightly as he watched the boys move stacks of books into the yard.

She followed the boys into the study room, and saw several boys sorting books in front of the bookshelf, while another boy was placing some books on the table.

Qiao Nian took a look and saw that they were all military matters.

My heart sank, did he not even want to join the army?

When the boys saw her, they all saluted, "I've met Madam."

Such a title really made Qiao Nian feel extremely uncomfortable, but she also knew that getting angry with them was useless, so she just frowned and asked, "Where is Xiao Heng?"

"Nian Nian is looking for me?" A familiar voice came from outside the door, with a deliberately soft tone, which made Qiao Nian's eyebrows tighten even more.

They saw Xiao Heng coming from outside wearing regular clothes and looking very relaxed.

It's just that the corners of his mouth were cut and bruised, probably from a punch.

Qiao Nian took a deep breath and asked, "Xiao Heng, what exactly do you want to do?"

Xiao Heng did not respond immediately. He raised his eyes and glanced at the boy beside him, "You guys get out."

After receiving the order, the servants bowed and exited the study.

Xiao Heng then spoke and said, "I know you won't forgive me for a while, but I can wait. I will stay with you until you are willing to let me stay with you."

Qiao Nian knew that Xiao Heng had a stubborn temper.

I just didn't expect that his persistence on this matter has reached such an unreasonable level!

If she never forgives him, will he imprison her for the rest of her life?

She looked at the smile on Xiao Heng's face, but she didn't miss the darkness hidden in his eyes.

She knew that maybe, he would really lock her up for the rest of her life.

I don’t want to argue anymore.

What should be said and what should be argued about was all said that night.

Continuing to argue is just playing the piano to a cow.

It's better to do something practical and useful.

Qiao Nian took a deep breath and then said, "I want to write a letter to Xiaocui."

"good."

The brief response made Qiao Nian a little stunned.

So easy?

She even thought of a bunch of excuses to convince him!

Maybe the surprise in her eyes was too obvious, so Xiao Heng smiled lightly and said, "I keep you by my side because I want to coax you so that I won't do anything annoying to you again."

Qiao Nian lowered his eyes.

But forcing her to stay is the most disgusting thing for her!

It's just that she didn't say this. After all, if she did, Xiao Heng wouldn't take it seriously.

Just listen to him say, "You can come and borrow the books I have here at any time. Don't worry, I just want to live closer to you and I won't force you to do anything."

He saw that she liked to look for some military books to read during Xiao He's time, so he moved so many books here.

It's so close to her that she can come in and read it at any time.

And his bedroom is located in the side room.

Hearing these words, Qiao Nian's heart sank even more, but in the end she didn't say anything and turned around and went back to her house.

Not long after, Qiaoer and Huier brought paper and pen.

Qiao Nian took it and started writing in front of the two of them.

The frost is like meeting:

I wanted to leave Beijing with you, but now it has become a fantasy. Don't worry, everything is fine with me. Remember to water the red plum in the small house for me. Other than that, I don't have much concern and hope for peace.

It was a very short letter without any fancy words. In the eyes of Qiaoer and Huier, it was just an ordinary letter.

However, the two of them still presented the letter to Xiao Heng.

Xiao Heng took it and glanced at it. His deep eyes were not tainted with any emotion, and he just said lightly, "Send it away!"

"yes."

Qiao'er and Hui'er left in response.

But Xiao Heng's eyes darkened.

He knew that Qiao Nian didn't want to stay.

But, do you want to find someone to save her based on just one letter?

Why doesn't she understand that now, no one can take her away from him anymore.

When Ningshuang received this letter, she was completely stunned.

"This is indeed Miss's handwriting!" Ningshuang's eyes were red with excitement. Over the past few days, she had almost dried up her tears.

Wang Er looked at the contents of the letter and nodded, "I can't recognize the lady's handwriting, but since the lady said she is fine, there is no need to worry."

Ningshuang began to sob, "She wrote this just to reassure me. She was taken away by General Xiao. Even if her body was not harmed, she must feel very uncomfortable in her heart!"

Wang Er nodded, but as he read the contents of the letter, he felt more and more strange, "It's just that this plum tree doesn't need watering from time to time! Why did the lady mention this for no reason?"

Hearing this, Ningshuang was also stunned.

Yes, the lady used to live in Luomei Courtyard, so she doesn’t know that plum blossoms don’t need to be watered often!

Then, why did the lady mention it specifically?

Ningshuang took this thin piece of letter paper and looked at it again and again, but still found nothing.

After thinking for a while, she said, "That's all, I'll go to the Xiao Mansion!"

She couldn't figure out what was going on, but Young Master Xiao would definitely figure it out!

Soon, Ningshuang arrived at the Xiao Mansion.

The guards outside the mansion had already received Xiao He's instructions. If Ningshuang came, they must not be stopped. Therefore, Ningshuang soon met Xiao He.

"Young Master! My lady sent someone to deliver a letter to me!" Ningshuang shouted as she rushed into Xiao He's yard.

Xiao He also came out of the house immediately and eagerly took the letter from Ningshuang. He took a glance and wrote down all the contents.

Then he heard Ningshuang say, "My lady specifically mentioned that the plum blossoms should be watered, but plum blossoms don't need to be watered frequently! But I can't figure out any other tricks. Young Master, take a look. What else is there in this letter?"

Xiao He's eyebrows sank, and he immediately said, "Ji Yue, send someone to check the houses outside the capital, especially those near the water!"

Ji Yue responded immediately and withdrew immediately.

In the past few days, Xiao He did not take any action.

It's just that Xiao Heng hid the person too deeply, and his people had no target at all, which was like looking for a needle in a haystack.

It's not that he didn't confront Xiao Heng face to face, but Xiao Heng would never admit it, even if he was punched twice by him, he would never let go!

These days, he hardly slept well. As soon as he closed his eyes, he saw Qiao Nian being imprisoned by Xiao Heng.

He just thought that if he couldn't find any news about Qiao Nian, he would probably go to the palace to beg the emperor!

Fortunately, she finally found an opportunity to pass the news out!

Thinking of this, Xiao He's face did not improve at all.

He saw the clues of this letter at a glance.

Then Xiao Heng must have seen it too.

Then why did he let this letter pass smoothly?
