This master is fake and cold

Chapter 23 Interrogation

When I woke up, the world was still dark.

It was the same time again, and the same dream again, as if it was a nightmare that was destined to be inescapable in this life.Day and night, he was haunted by nightmares, and what appeared in front of his eyes was still the overwhelming blood.

After so many years, I can't forget the scarlet.

Xi Shi slowly exhaled the depressed breath accumulated in his heart, and the hot breath he exhaled immediately turned into a cloud of white mist as soon as it came into contact with the cold air.In the weather of the twelfth lunar month, although the night did not reach the level of dripping water, but it was not good to just curl up on the cold wooden bed for a night.

Princess Changle won't be back tonight, Xishi stared blankly at the criss-crossing wooden beams above.After returning from the palace, she went directly back to the princess mansion, and entered the mansion directly from the gate of the princess mansion.She could see the strange eyes of the guards guarding the gate. There was obviously something wrong with her coming back so late.But there are some things that she never wanted to hide from Chang Le.Both she and His Majesty knew that the Daqing Dynasty was the domain of the Su Clan's royal family, and they, a group of outsiders, had to restrain their edge for the time being.

Presumably at this time, the people in Changle are already preparing to report the news of her late return to Changle, right?Xishi was thinking in his heart, Chang Le didn't trust her in the first place, and had let her go for so long, now, I'm afraid he should be a little anxious, I don't know what method she will use to force her to speak?

And what to say, what not to say, hints or subtle hints, these must all have a degree.There are too many secrets, and it becomes more and more taboo over time. This scale is actually very difficult to grasp.

Xishi sighed with some headache, absently playing with the white jade wrench on his finger.At some point, the original warm color of the white jade finger gradually became transparent, and a small, imperceptible protrusion on the periphery of the finger suddenly burst into a circle of dazzling light, and then stretched wildly.

That turned out to be a horn.There are spiral patterns on the body of the horn, one circle and one circle, from the inside to the outside.It is not as slender and curved as ordinary ox horn antlers, this horn is pure and straight like bamboo.The tip of the horn is sharp, and the whole body has a special metallic luster, and its hardness can be seen with the naked eye.

Xishi patted the wrench finger lightly, the movement was extremely gentle, it seemed to be comforting, but at the same time it seemed to be stopping.The light on the unicorn trembled unwillingly, but it seemed that she was angry when she was afraid, and finally restrained herself obediently.

"Is it a matter of course for the son to pay off the father's debt?" she asked.This is what His Holiness told her today.

The unicorn's light flickered, as if it was an answer.Xi Shi frowned slightly, and couldn't help retorting: "But what's wrong with the child? Why should the grievances of the previous generation be poured on the next generation!"

The light on the unicorn flickered more intensely this time, Xi Shi's eyes gradually dimmed, and he murmured: "I'm not soft-hearted, I just feel that I seem to have done something wrong..."

The wrench finger turned into a cloud of emptiness, and quietly fell off Xi Shi's hand, and then the mist gradually condensed into its original shape.At first glance, that white body looks like a slender white horse, but a closer look reveals that it is different.With a purple head and blue eyes, there is an indescribable strangeness in the endless holiness.If people in this world saw it, they would shout that they saw a "monster".

This is a noble unicorn.

It gently leaned against Xi Shi's side, rubbing its face against Xi Shi to comfort her.The clear and transparent blue eyes were full of worry and self-blame, and it actually said: "Master, what's wrong with you? You can't help yourself!"

Xishi was silent for a long time before he said in a low voice: "I just dreamed about my eldest brother. My eldest brother still looks like a modest gentleman. He smiled at me, just like when I was a child. But his body was covered with blood, his arms and The legs are gone too."

The unicorn couldn't help but look up at its master, and looked up at Xishi, with tears in her eyes: "He told me, let me forget about hatred and them. But blood and deep hatred are already carved into the bones , how can we forget the instinct of revenge?"

After a pause, she said: "For some reason, I suddenly remembered a lot of things from the past. I remembered that a long time ago, my father and my second brother used to play chess under the tree, my sister-in-law took Gong'er to read and write, and my eldest brother was busy all day long. I can't see anyone. At that time, I always felt that such a life was dull, and I always provoke the Nine Realms and Eighteen Squares, and then let my father and brother worry about me and deal with the aftermath."

She stopped and said nothing more.Xishi always thinks of the fire that day, which spread throughout the world.The redness of the teeth and claws soaked the flowers and trees in the whole world into a dazzling color.

A long silence followed.The unicorn saw that the owner closed her eyes, her breathing was slow, and she seemed to be asleep.But there was a drop of crystal clear liquid from the corner of her eye that passed across her cheek silently.

The unicorn gently took the drop of tears into its mouth with its tongue. The salty, bitter and sour tears were the worst liquid it had ever drunk.It slowly pressed its warm cheeks to its owner's face.

----Dividing line

Changle returned to the princess mansion at noon.She greeted her father, queen and queen in the morning, and then left the palace in a hurry after having lunch with her relatives.When they arrived at the princess mansion, Changle immediately sent someone to call Xishi.If it was said that what she cared about the most at this time was without a doubt Xi Shi.

Early in the morning, the servants reported to her what Li Xishi was doing last night, and she never expected that Xishi would be so bold, and just exposed her identity difference so openly and nonchalantly.What on earth is she thinking?Did he know that he knew her betrayal, so he simply broke the can?Don't even bother to hide it?

Chang Le has always been thoughtful, but this is the first time he has seen such an opponent who does not play cards according to common sense.She was puzzled by Xi Shi's actions.Since I can't figure it out, I might as well ask her directly.Simple and crude methods are not necessarily completely useless, but she wants to use this to test Xi's thoughts by the way.

And the dream from last night.

Thinking of this, Chang Le was a little stunned.The dream stopped there yesterday, she woke up, and in the end she didn't know what Xi Shi's answer was.Besides that dream, she seemed to have dreamed something last night, but after waking up, she basically forgot all the content of the dream.It's just that the look in Wei Xishi's eyes can't be forgotten in his mind.Such a complicated expression of emotion seems to contain endless struggle and pain.Xishi has always given her the feeling of being respectful and submissive, which is an emotion she has never seen in Xishi in reality.

"What does the master want to do with her?"

It was Su Er who couldn't help asking. Goya knew his master's temper best, and he wouldn't disturb his master's thoughts at such a time.But Su Er is a man after all, so his thoughts are not so delicate.

From the beginning to the present, Changle's subordinates had the most contact with Xishi, without a doubt he and Goya.Goya is better, she is Changle's personal maid, she only needs to obey the master's orders.But Su Er, as one of the leaders of Changle's hidden guards, has been in charge of intelligence collection.This time, however, he suffered repeated setbacks from Xishi and Sihai Commercial Company, and his resentment had already reached its peak.

In addition, there is a deeper layer of hidden thoughts...

Su Er gritted his teeth fiercely, forcefully suppressing the strange emotion in his heart.

"Gu hasn't figured it out yet," Chang Le said: "But since she has a different identity, she must be kept under the watchful eye."

This decision not only surprised Su Er, but Goya also cried out: "Master!"

She knelt down without hesitation, and said earnestly: "Master, this person's identity is unknown, he is an enemy, not a friend, you must not put yourself in danger!"

Goya may be simple-minded and not intelligent, but as Changle's personal maid, her biggest characteristic is loyalty.She was an orphan, and it was Changle who rescued her from the fists of beggars on the street.Since then, it is more appropriate to describe her experience as one step up to the sky.A filthy little beggar has suddenly become the most favored princess's maidservant. Anyone in the palace who sees her must respectfully call her "Miss Goya".

Goya will never forget that all this was bestowed on her by Changle.There is no lack of honor and decency that should be given.Changle has never complained to her because of her background.Even after bringing her back, she taught her etiquette in poetry and books herself.After so many years of getting along, Changle has already become her god and her belief.A master for whom she is willing to give her life.

But now, in order to obtain information about the Four Seas Trading Company, her master wants to risk his life.Regardless of whether this was just another test of Xishi, or for some other reason, her heart was filled with panic, and she even felt a bit of resentment towards Xishi who had caused all these results.

"The result hasn't been decided yet, what are you guys doing?" Chang Le helplessly tapped Goya's head, comforting him softly: "Get up quickly."

Goya hesitated to speak, but at this time there was an announcement from the servants outside that it was time, Changle glanced at her, Geya got up reluctantly, and stood behind Changle.

Only then did Chang Le raise his voice: "Let her in."

Xi Shi had already untied her weapon before entering the hall, and she saluted meticulously towards Chang Le who was seated in the main seat.Chang Le looked at her expression, Xi Shi's expression was calm and calm, as if he had expected the scene in front of him long ago.

"The guard at the gate told me that you came back very late last night, so I just wanted to ask, since you didn't go back to the Princess Mansion last night, where did you go?"

This question is so straightforward that it cannot be more straightforward.

Xi Shi was a little helpless, she didn't think Chang Le had a straight temper, Chang Le was like this, but he wanted to disrupt her arrangement and forced her to admit that there was a problem with her identity.

She thought about it and replied: "This subordinate went to meet some old friends last night. He was overwhelmed with alcohol and fell asleep. After waking up, this subordinate immediately bid farewell to old friends, so he came back late."

"Old man? What kind of old man?" Chang Le asked with a half-smile.
