Chapter 190
Ping'an Town, Night Watch.
The sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently.
Qian Yi stood in the courtyard of the Night Watch, his deep and sharp eyes staring into the distance.
He gently raised his arm, holding a well-trained eagle in his hand.
With his order, the eagle spread its wings and flew high, galloping towards the distant imperial capital.
Since returning from Linjiang Village, Qian Yi did not dare to slack off, and immediately reported the important news he got from Lin Qingzhi to Her Royal Highness the Princess.
At this moment, a warm scene was playing out in the palace far away in the imperial capital.
The beautiful and dignified Si Jinxuan was sitting in the imperial garden with the lively and lovely Xiao Yao'er.
The warm sunlight fell on them, as if they were covered with a layer of golden gauze.
On the stone table in front of them, there were a wide variety of snacks. These exquisite and delicious delicacies were all made by the chef of the imperial kitchen, and were specially prepared for them by the queen.
You know, the queen only has one precious daughter, Si Jinxuan.
Unfortunately, Si Jinxuan has not yet married. Not to mention having children.
Therefore, when she saw the innocent, well-behaved and clever Xiao Yaoer and Lin Ruo, the maternal love in her heart was instantly aroused.
Especially after learning that the two little girls had a special liking for food, the queen ordered the imperial chef to cook a variety of delicious snacks for Xiao Yaoer every day.
It was also because of this that Xiao Yaoer loved this amiable, kind and kind queen very much.
"Ah! Hmm..."
It turned out that Xiao Yaoer couldn't wait to open her cherry mouth and stuffed the fragrant and mouth-watering snacks in her hand into her mouth.
Her cheeks were puffed up like two cute little squirrels, and she chewed with relish.
Seeing this, Si Jinxuan on the side couldn't help but smile, her eyes full of pampering and tenderness.
She gently raised her jade hand, gracefully took out a snow-white handkerchief from her arms, carefully approached Xiao Yao'er's little face covered with food residues, and gently wiped it, as if she was treating a rare treasure with great care.
After wiping, Si Jinxuan smiled and whispered:
"Eat slowly, my little baby, don't choke. There are still many delicious foods here. If it's not enough, you can always ask the imperial chef to prepare more for us."
Hearing this, Xiao Yao'er still had a mouth full of food, and responded vaguely:
"Yeah! I know..."
Although she agreed well, her little hands always held the food in her hands tightly, and she was reluctant to let go for a moment.
"Chiu..."
Accompanied by a clear and long bird song that broke through the sky, everyone looked up and saw a black shadow swooping down like lightning.
In the blink of an eye, a majestic and majestic eagle landed steadily where Si Jinxuan was.
Si Jinxuan was quick-witted and turned her body slightly, raising her right arm smoothly and gracefully.
The eagle seemed to have a telepathic connection with her, landing directly on her white and jade-like arm.
After standing firm, Si Jinxuan hurriedly reached out and gently stroked the eagle's feathers to comfort it.
Then, she carefully took out a neatly folded note from the bamboo tube tied to the eagle's leg.
After unfolding the note, Si Jinxuan's beautiful eyes condensed slightly, and she read it attentively.
As her eyes wandered over the note, her originally slightly solemn face gradually blossomed into a smile as gorgeous as a spring flower.
It turned out that the note contained the message Qian Yi sent her.
Just last night, Si Jinxuan received a message from the barbarians.
After learning about this, she was worried and stayed up all night, thinking hard about how to deal with it.
However, at this moment, when she saw the message conveyed on the note, all her worries disappeared in an instant.
Because of Brother Lin's help, all the problems seemed to be solved.
Si Jinxuan happily folded the note again and put it in her arms, then gently touched the head of the eagle and said softly:
"You've worked hard, go and rest."
After that, she raised her jade arm lightly, and the eagle flapped its wings and flew high, disappearing in the blue sky and white clouds in a blink of an eye.
After watching the eagle leave, Si Jinxuan turned around and sat back on the stool, continuing to take good care of the lovely little Yao'er.
"Aunt Xuan, what happened?"
Xiao Yaoer finally swallowed the food that was stuffed in her mouth, then blinked her big eyes and tilted her cute little head to ask curiously.
There were still some food residues around her pink little mouth, and she looked very playful.
Si Jinxuan looked at the innocent Xiao Yao'er and couldn't help but smile gently, and replied softly:
"It's okay, baby. With your powerful and omnipotent father here, all problems are solved, and everything is fine now."
Hearing this, Xiao Yao'er's big watery eyes lit up instantly, and she clapped her hands excitedly and cheered:
"Oh! It turned out that it was Daddy who helped solve the problem! That's not surprising at all, I knew that Daddy is the most powerful person, he is an omnipotent hero..."
When talking about her beloved father, Xiao Yao'er's face immediately overflowed with an expression of incomparable pride and pride, and she couldn't help but raise her small and exquisite head high.
"Little guy..."
Si Jinxuan smiled softly, slowly raised her hand, and carefully wiped away the food residue on Xiaoyao'er's pink cheek, with extremely gentle movements.
After doing all this, she nodded with satisfaction, then stretched out her slender fingers and gently tapped Xiaoyao'er's head.
"Hehehe..."
Xiaoyao'er, who was tapped on the head, laughed as clear and pleasant as a silver bell, as cute as a flower blooming in spring.
Then, as if she suddenly remembered something, she turned her head abruptly, blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Lin Ruo who was concentrating on fighting the food in front of her, and asked expectantly:
"Sister Lin Ruo, where are we going to play later!"
Hearing Xiaoyao'er's question, Lin Ruo first responded vaguely with a bulging mouth, then swallowed the food in her mouth with difficulty, frowned and thought seriously.
After a long while, she shook her head and answered helplessly:
"Oh! I don't know! It seems that we have visited all the interesting attractions in the imperial capital!"
"So that's the case! Then should we go somewhere else to play?"
After hearing what Lin Ruo said, Xiao Yao'er tilted her head, her eyes sparkling, as if she was full of curiosity and longing for the new journey.
And Si Jinxuan, who had been watching the interaction between the two of them quietly, was slightly stunned at this time.
When she came back to her senses, her eyes revealed a trace of barely perceptible reluctance, and she asked softly:
"Xiao Yao'er, are you really leaving the imperial capital?"
Although the voice was not loud, the emotion contained in it was so sincere and deep.
Si Jinxuan had been in Linjiang Village for so long, and her feelings for Xiao Yao'er had long been unfathomable.
Time passed quickly, as if in just a blink of an eye, the two had just reunited, but were facing the moment of separation again.
This sudden separation filled Si Jinxuan's heart with a feeling of reluctance.
When Xiaoyaoer, who was standing by, heard the news, the excitement she had felt about leaving the bustling imperial capital disappeared without a trace.
When she thought of saying goodbye to the gentle and kind Aunt Xuan and the kind and amiable Queen, her eyes turned red and she felt a strong sense of reluctance.
Especially when she thought of the Queen's meticulous care and love for her, and the Emperor who was always smiling and kind, Xiaoyaoer felt even more depressed.
However, at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Xiaoyaoer's mind: "Ah! But I came out this time just to find my mother, I can't stay here forever..."
Thinking of this, Xiaoyaoer's heart suddenly became extremely entangled and confused, and for a moment she didn't know how to make a decision.
Seeing Xiaoyaoer like this, Si Jinxuan hurriedly comforted her softly: "Your father once told you that your mother will come back to you sooner or later. So don't be too anxious now, we can wait for a while, maybe she will show up one day."
Si Jinxuan said while gently stroking Xiaoyaoer's hair, with deep concern in her eyes.
In fact, Si Jinxuan was not only reluctant to let the lovely Xiaoyaoer leave, but also worried about her safety along the way.
Although Lin Qingzhi took good care of her, after all, the journey was long and it was inevitable to encounter various unexpected situations.
If Xiaoyaoer accidentally got hurt, Si Jinxuan would definitely feel distressed.
