Chapter 181 Intimate
"Sikong!"
When Su Fuying and Si Yu returned to the Princess's residence, Biluo and Ying Er were having snacks in the courtyard.
Hearing the voice, Ying Er stood up excitedly, "Si Yu, what brings you here?"
"The county lord."
Only then did the two see Su Fuying walking out from behind, and Ying Er and Bi Luo quickly bowed.
"Alright, there aren't that many rules at home."
Su Fuying helped the two up, her gaze falling on the two bowls of noodles on the table. "Why haven't you eaten yet, it's so late?"
Shadow Two said somewhat embarrassedly, "I was hungry, so Biluoqi made me a bowl of noodles."
"My Biluo is so thoughtful, isn't she? Look how radiant Ying Er looks these past few days, isn't she, little Biluo?"
Su Fuying grinned mischievously and reached out to pinch the little girl's delicate cheek.
Biluo's face visibly flushed red. "Miss!"
Seeing her shy expression, Su Fuying couldn't help but tease her a few more times, "Oh dear, our little cutie is shy~"
Shadow Two stood to the side, smiling awkwardly, unsure of what to say.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore." Su Fuying patted Biluo's head with a smile, then turned to look at Ying Er, a hint of concern flashing in her eyes, and asked softly, "How have you been feeling these past few days? Is there anything bothering you?"
Ying Er raised his head and looked at the woman in front of him. A warm feeling welled up in his heart. He shook his head and said, "Princess, rest assured, I am fine now. Thank you for saving my life." As he spoke, he clasped his hands again and prepared to kneel down to pay his respects.
Su Fuying quickly reached out to support him, saying, "Stop, stop, stop. Don't kneel. You were seriously injured while saving Biluo, and I haven't properly thanked you yet."
Upon hearing this, Ying Er blushed slightly. He scratched his head and said in a low voice, "Your Highness is too kind. Protecting Your Highness and Miss is simply my duty. I dare not take credit for it."
Upon hearing this, Ying Er's face flushed slightly, and his eyes flickered uncertainly, as if he were somewhat nervous.
Su Fuying looked at Ying Er's reaction, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
She coughed lightly to break the awkward silence, then said, "Alright, let's not stand here anymore, let's go inside and talk."
With that, she turned and walked into the room, followed by Ying Er and Bi Luo.
At this moment, Biluo quietly approached Ying Er and whispered, "Your name is Sikong?"
"Sikong is my name, and Shadow Two was just a name I picked up randomly when carrying out a mission. Shadow One is called Sinan, and Shadow Three is called Sifeng."
Ying Er carefully explained to Bi Luo, then looked at the woman in black beside him and couldn't help but mutter, "Why are you still carrying this dark thing? We're all acquaintances, take it off quickly."
Si Yu seemed to be used to Ying Er's attitude. Considering that he was still a patient today, she didn't argue with him and gently pulled off her mask.
The moment the mask was removed, a clean face was revealed. Biluo's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaim, "So beautiful!"
She carefully examined Si Yu's attire and noticed that she was wearing a black outfit with two long swords hanging at her waist, making her look heroic and dashing.
Si Yu smiled at Bi Luo, a hint of tenderness flashing in her eyes, and said, "Thank you, you're very cute too."
Then, her gaze fell on Shadow Two, she paused for a moment, and continued, "Be careful not to get taken advantage of by a pig."
Upon hearing this, Shadow Two immediately became agitated, his eyes widening as he demanded, "Who are you calling a pig?"
He looked indignant, clearly very dissatisfied with the title.
"Did I say anything to you? You're rushing to acknowledge me."
A slight smile crept onto Si Yu's lips; it seemed like she hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time.
"You!" Ying Er was about to say something, but suddenly noticed the questioning look in Bi Luo's eyes, and swallowed the words back down.
He then feigned grievance and complained to Biluo, "She called me a pig, what should I do, Biluo?"
"I think it looks quite similar, right, Sister Siyu?"
Biluo playfully made a face at Ying Er, then skipped and hopped after Su Fuying as she ran away.
"Hey, this little girl has a sweet tongue." After the two walked away, Si Yu couldn't help but nudge Ying Er with her elbow and tease him.
"Even sweeter than Si Nan's sweetness?" Ying Er glanced at her disdainfully, snorted, and proudly raised her chin, deliberately refusing to look at her anymore.
Upon hearing this, Si Yu was stunned. The image of that person involuntarily surfaced in her mind, and a faint blush quickly spread across her ears. She lowered her eyes and remained silent.
The group arrived at the hall. Su Fuying's gaze darted back and forth between Ying Er and Si Yu, and she asked in a serious tone, "Now can you tell me where Xiao Yuheng is? I have important matters to discuss with him."
Si Yu was unsure whether to tell Su Fuying the truth. She turned to Ying Er, seemingly seeking help. Ying Er remained silent, offering no hints.
Si Yu thought to herself that she hadn't been back to the capital for over a year. Had something happened during this time that changed them? She decided to observe the situation first.
It's utterly unbelievable that a woman would dare to address her master by his name!
Even more surprisingly, the woman casually inquired about her master's whereabouts.
Such a scene was simply unbelievable; in the past, these subordinates would never have dared to imagine that such a thing would happen.
Ying Er understood Si Yu's concerns and nodded slightly to her, indicating that everything was under control, which reassured Si Yu.
"Master has already headed to the border. According to the itinerary, he is expected to arrive before sunset tomorrow."
Hearing this answer, Su Fuying was not surprised, but she still had some doubts because she knew that he had claimed to be dead. So how could he appear in the border area under his real identity?
"I don't know the answer to this question either. As subordinates, we have no right to interfere with our master's decisions," Si Yu said earnestly, bowing her head.
Su Fuying gently stroked the rim of the teacup with her fair fingers, lost in deep thought.
"Does it really only take two days to travel from the capital to the border?"
The secret report that person showed her last night indicated that even if he set off immediately, the earliest he could leave would be this morning, and he could arrive before sunset tomorrow. By that calculation, the distance between the capital and the border seemed to be very short.
“Of course not,” Si Yu explained. “Normally, it takes at least six days to travel from the capital to the border by horse, and almost half a month by carriage. But we have Xuan Ying, so the speed will be much faster.”
"Is it because of Xuan Ying?" Su Fuying suddenly thought of that jet-black horse. She remembered that when she first saw it, she felt that the horse was extraordinary.
