0307: Men Are Always Hot.
On a quiet night, Qiao Ji finished her dinner and was arranging her next work in the study.
He heard a burst of slow and rhythmic footsteps, which the young man was too familiar with.
Qiao Ji put down the pen, got up, left the study and went to the living room. As soon as she arrived in the living room, she saw the charming Lian Xin.
The fox-eared lady is wearing a simple yellow dress, which is in stark contrast to her bright face like the sun.
But it won't look disharmonious, thanks to this simple and elegant skirt, otherwise Lian Xin would be like a charming flower without the foil of green leaves, it would be tasteless.
"My lord." Lian Xin blinked her fox-like eyes slowly, and walked into the living room.
She sat down slowly, pointed to her stomach intentionally, and muttered, "I'm hungry after coming here so late."
"Hahaha... guessed it." Qiao Ji smiled heartily.
He just likes the bright and charming character of Hu Erniang, who doesn't look artificial.
"Sister Xin, the Lord has asked me to prepare a bowl of chicken noodle soup for you in advance." Xue Nai blinked playfully, got up and walked into the kitchen.
Lian Xin looked at the young man in surprise, narrowed her orange eyes slightly, and asked, "How did the Lord know that I would come?"
"The investigation of the Misty Court usually results in two days. I guess you will definitely come back tonight."
Qiao Ji reached out and pinched the delicate nose of the fox-eared lady.
Lian Xin showed Fang Fei's charming smile, shook her fluffy fox ears, and said happily, "That's great, you can eat as soon as you come."
"Tap Tat Tat..."
Xue Nai came out with a bowl of noodles on a tray, and said softly, "Sister Xin, eat quickly, it's still hot."
"Thank you, Xiaoxue." Lian Xin made a cute expression at the white cat girl.
Qiao Ji didn't speak, she rested her chin on her big hand and quietly watched Fox Er Niang eating.
Lian Xin felt uncomfortable after taking a few mouthfuls, her pretty face turned hot, and even the base of her ears turned red.
She raised her head weakly, stroked her loose hair with one hand, and asked, "Master, what's on my face?"
"It's okay, you can eat." Qiao Ji smiled and shook her head, and stopped teasing Fox Erniang.
Ten minutes later, Lian Xin finished the chicken noodle soup, because Hu'er Niang didn't have a big appetite, so there was some left over.
Mother Fox wiped her pink lips with a tissue, raised her head and said with a serious expression, "My lord, the Inspectorate has already begun to thoroughly investigate what happened last night.
"The red warbler has already told me."
Qiao Ji waved his hands indifferently, and asked, "What's the reaction from the second prince?"
"He's going to be mad."
Lian Xin covered her mouth and laughed, and said, "Six inspection knights were missing all of a sudden, and they were all of high rank, which made him lose a lot of chess pieces in the inspection department.
"The people under him are very strict in their work. Many of them have escaped the inspection of the inspection department. It is probably related to the squadron leader." Qiao Ji said, blinking his strange eyes.
According to the information given by Chiying, among the current four squadron leaders, apart from the rabbit-eared lady, Dai Xiu is a neutral knight on the surface.
The other squadron leader is under the second prince Kayo, and the last one works for whom I don't know.
Lian Xin worried, "My lord, if it goes on for a long time, Chiying will be discovered by the second prince sooner or later."
After all, only squadron leaders and above who can check the patrolling knights' night shifts are qualified to see them, as long as a little investigation can find clues.
"Indeed, but the next round of martial arts exams should be coming soon. As long as the people we arrange can be admitted to the inspection department, Wei Lei will have help." Ji said calmly.
"Who does the Lord plan to let go?" Lian Xin asked curiously.
"Choose a batch from those unselected training knights." The corners of Qiao Ji's mouth rose slightly.
The unselected training knights have gone through three months of training, no matter how bad they are, they are better than the wild knights, and it will not be too difficult to enter the inspection department.
Lian Xin nodded, and reported seriously, "My lord, the investigation results from the eldest prince have come out."
"What's the situation?" Qiao Ji took a sip of hot water and looked at Hu Er Niang.
"Besides the one who was killed by us, there are three remaining under the eldest prince's subordinates, one of whom is very mysterious, and the Mixun Court couldn't investigate any information about him.
Lian Xin also took a sip of the hot water, and said, "One of the remaining two treasures is a blood face we know, and he is the prince's personal bodyguard. If he stays by his side for a long time, he won't have any chance to do anything.
She put down the teacup, rubbed her cold hands, and continued, "The only breakthrough is the split face, which is also the prince's close bodyguard."
"Huh?" Qiao Ji raised her bushy eyebrows curiously.
He saw the fox-eared lady rubbing her hands, so he stretched out his broad palm to hold her small white hand like jade to keep her warm.
"Cracked Face will take one day out of a month to go to his mistress, and spend one night in love."
Lian Xin felt the warmth from the boy's palm.
She couldn't help but think of a sentence someone said before, that is, men are always hot, and now it seems that it is true.
"What is his treasure?" Qiao Ji asked, tightly holding the hand of Hu Er Niang.
"It's a large anti-shock shield, a treasure with absolute frontal defense, and that's why he has been following the eldest prince." Lian Xin told the known information.
"Anti-shock shield?"
Qiao Ji became interested and asked, "Is it a treasure that can defend against frontal external attacks?"
This is the first time he heard that there are (does) treasures that are related to defense. The ones he encountered and heard before are basically offensive, and there should be auxiliary ones, such as healing and saving lives, and increasing the speed of action.
"According to the investigation information, this treasure can deflect frontal attacks, break arrows, and deflect swords... Frontal attacks are very difficult to harm the owner at all. " Lian Xin paused word by word.
"Da da da"
Qiao Ji tapped the table lightly with her index finger, and said, "When is the next time you show up to see your mistress?"
"According to the information, he will go to see his mistress in five days." Lian Xin shook the fox's ears.
"Thank you for your hard work." Qiao Ji pinched Hu Erniang's cheek.
Lian Xin smiled charmingly, and said nonchalantly, "It's not hard at all to do things for the lord.
