"Who ruined my good name? It's such a waste of talent not to be a screenwriter. "

"Writer?" Zhang Qinxue stared at her in astonishment.

"Nothing." Yun Qixi waved her hands and cursed in her heart. She never thought that the ancient people could gossip like this.

Tonight's moon was only a tiny crescent, and the light was not very clear. Under the dim moonlight, Yun Qixi saw two white shadows on the grass at the foot of the mountain.

That's right, there were two of them. In other words, besides the Little Xue, there was another one.

"Who is it?" Yun Qixi stood at the top of the mountain and stared at the white silhouette of the moon, asking herself softly.

"It's the Fourth Prince." Zhang Qinxue said.

Yun Qixi turned her head in astonishment, only to see that Zhang Qinxue was looking at the white patch of grass, and the emotions in her eyes became complicated.

Yun Qixi thought that her eyesight had already surpassed the norm, but she was still able to recognize that it was Shan Jingyan. Or did she already know he was at the back of the mountain?

The day that they had just arrived in Yue Yue Manor had suddenly cooled down. It was probably to remind everyone that autumn was coming. Today, the temperature seemed to have risen, but the coolness of the autumn night was becoming more and more obvious.

Under the moonlight, Shan Jingyan sat cross legged on the grass, with Little Xue lying in front of him.

Although the Little Xue had attacked Yun Qixi during the day, looking at how quiet the Little Xue was at the moment, she felt a little pitiful.

Hearing footsteps, Shan Jingyan turned around.

Yun Qixi stopped not far away, not taking another step as she cautiously stared at the Little Xue.

However, Zhang Qinxue slowly walked towards the Little Xue, her exquisite embroidered shoes gently stepping on the grass, her light footsteps revealed her nervousness, but she still walked closer.

With regards to her approach, the Little Xue did not reject her. Thus, she squatted down and summoned up her courage to stretch out her hand to touch the fur on the back of the Little Xue. The Little Xue gently twisted and turned, scaring her so much that she hurriedly retracted her hand. However, the Little Xue had only moved once, and then it seemed as if it had lost all its strength, and was motionless.

"Little Xue, be good." Zhang Qinxue smiled with gratitude, her voice extremely gentle.

Yun Qixi thought, this Little Xue was prejudiced against her right? Is her looks really not pleasing?

Shan Jingyan looked at her and laughed, "Don't be afraid, the Little Xue will never hurt you again."

Yun Qixi stared at the Little Xue and said seriously: "I think it doesn't like me."

Shan Jingyan laughed even more, "That won't happen, I promise you, the Little Xue is injured and very weak right now." It was hard to conceal the pain in his voice.

"Qixi, help the Little Xue take a look, I think it's so pitiful." Zhang Qinxue raised her head and said.

Yun Qixi remembered, during the day, Shan Liancheng had stabbed deeper, and if he had not stopped the sword at the back, the Little Xue would have lost its life.

Yun Qixi thought for a while and laughed helplessly.

"I don't seem to be able to get along with non-humans. Fine, but I have to go get something. You guys wait here." With that, Yun Qixi turned and walked back.

"I'll accompany you." Zhang Qinxue stood up immediately.

Yun Qixi turned around and smiled, "You don't need it?"

"Tian is so dark, aren't you afraid?" Zhang Qinxue nervously held on to her skirt with both hands.

What a joke, would Yun Qixi be afraid of getting dark?

"Don't worry, just wait here. I'll be back in a while." With that, she left with large strides.

She took her bag and returned to the back mountain. Seeing that Shan Jingyan and Zhang Qinxue seemed to be talking, she seemed to be having a good time.

Seeing her return, they got up and made way.

"Jing Yan, hold the Little Xue. Let me take a look." Yun Qixi said.

Hearing that, Zhang Qinxue was startled, and couldn't help but look at her.

"Qin Xue, open the bag for me." Yun Qixi crouched down and gently lifted up the fur on the Little Xue's wound and shouted.

"Oh." Zhang Qinxue came back to reality and opened the bag for her.

Yun Qixi took out some medicine and carefully sprayed it on the Little Xue's wound.

It was probably painful, but when the medicine was applied, the Little Xue snorted twice, and its huge body shrank back.

During the day it had been a fierce beast, but now it was like a pitiful pet.

"Don't worry, this injury isn't too serious. Even if I don't treat it, it will slowly recover." Yun Qixi said as she applied the medicine.

"Is Third Brother's hand alright?" Shan Jingyan asked.

After he asked, the image of him holding her hand suddenly flashed through Yun Qixi's mind, as his magnetic voice said the three words "I'll listen to you".

Realizing that she had gone crazy, Yun Qixi stuck out her tongue and said casually, "I won't die."

Shan Jingyan was startled for a moment, and then he laughed.

After applying the medicine on the Little Xue, it was still quiet seeing that. Thus, Yun Qixi's vigilance towards it was completely gone, and she sat her butt on the grass.

"Hey, Qin Xue, didn't you say you were looking for someone? "Who is it?" Yun Qixi seemed to have just thought of this question.

Zhang Qinxue, who had been standing silently at the side, did not think that the topic would suddenly fall onto him. She glanced at Shan Jingyan in panic, "I, I'm the Empress, the Empress said that she had never seen Fourth Prince before and was very worried. I guessed that the Fourth Prince would be at the back of the mountain, so she came to take a look."

"How did you guess? Why couldn't I?" Yun Qixi laughed meaningfully.

Regarding Zhang Qinxue's thoughts, she had already sensed it during Shan Liancheng's celebratory palace banquet. Although this little girl had never said anything, and had tried his best to conceal it, she wasn't an idiot. How could he not see through it?

"What are you standing there for? Take a seat."

Zhang Qinxue was caught off guard by Yun Qixi's pull, and she fell onto the grass. Therefore, Zhang Qinxue had no choice but to sit down. At this moment, the three of them were in a circle, and the Little Xue was lying right between Shan Jingyan and Yun Qixi.

"Jing Yan, I see that you have a deep relationship with this Little Xue. What is going on?" Yun Qixi finally asked the question inside her heart.

Shan Jingyan's clean eyes contained a smile. Looking up at the night sky, one hand gently caressed the Snow Wolf's fur.

"At that time, I was eight years old and the Royal Father personally led Abulu. I secretly followed the Royal Father's team and threatened them, threatening to discover that my soldiers were not allowed to tell the Royal Father about me. In the end, I followed him all the way to Abulu, but Royal Father didn't notice anything at all. "

Yun Qixi was overjoyed, "Aiyah, I really didn't expect that someone like you, who seems so proper, would actually do such a rebellious and stimulating thing."

After all, Zhang Qinxue was a genuine lady from a noble family. In comparison, Yun Qixi crossed her legs and did not have a single trace of image.

Shan Jingyan looked at her and laughed, "Honestly? Perhaps it is because of my duty, the Royal Father would never dream that I would actually follow him for such a long distance. "

"How did the Emperor discover it?" Yun Qixi could not help but ask.

"When the troops from Great Swallow arrived in Abulu, it was like a bloody storm. Even the grassland within five miles of Fang Yuan was dyed red."

With just a few short sentences, the three of them seemed to have witnessed the great battle back then. Shan Jingyan's expression dimmed.

He thought he would hear an interesting story, but the moment the topic started, it turned out to be quite heavy.

Shan Jingyan continued, "Since I was young, my health has never been good. Royal Father's mother never allowed me to travel far, and the furthest I could go was to visit the Yue Yue Manor. It's precisely because of this that I especially wanted to go to a faraway place and see Abulu's grassland was so beautiful, and because I coincidentally happened to know that Royal Father was bringing troops to Abulu.

The world is so big, I want to see it. This was the most simple dream of that eight year old child.

Yun Qixi did not pursue the matter further. She knew that what he had experienced was not as beautiful as she had imagined.

"As soon as we arrived in Abulu, before we had time to enjoy the beauty, the war began. As I was running around on my horse's hooves, I met a group of Abulu's soldiers who were trying to escape. They looked at me and guessed that I was from Great Swallow. At this time, the Little Xue appeared. Sometimes, fate makes a lot of sense, as if it had known me in its previous life. It carried me on its back and ran away from them. The Little Xue brought me to meet up with her comrades. Strangely enough, even though I was so young at that time, I wasn't scared at all when I saw so many snow wolves. When Royal Father saw that I was with a group of snow wolves, he was extremely shocked and got shot dead immediately. The snow wolves then fell down right in front of me and cried miserably for a long time. I blocked in front of the Little Xue with all my might, preventing the Royal Father from hurting it. Afterwards, Royal Father was unable to refuse my request, so he let me bring the Little Xue back to the Great Swallow. Maybe it's because Little Xue saw its many comrades lying in pools of blood, from that moment onwards, it was extremely sensitive to the smell of blood.

"I have heard a little about what happened back then." After Zhang Qinxue finished speaking, she looked at the Little Xue lying on the ground, and a pained look appeared in her eyes, "Actually, the Little Xue are quite pitiful too."

Yun Qixi rubbed the Little Xue's head, the Little Xue seemed to understand her words of consolation, and snorted twice.

"I guess Abulu is a beautiful prairie."

"Very beautiful!" Shan Jingyan answered with certainty.

"The Little Xue grew there, and that is its homeland. If you take it away from there, will it really be happy?" Yun Qixi said.

Shan Jingyan stared at her, as if he was lost in thought, "It won't be happy? I just wanted to protect it, did I do something wrong? "

Suddenly, Yun Qixi smiled like a ghost, "Let's see what the Little Xue thinks. I see how attached the Little Xue is to you, perhaps it has fallen in love with you.

Shan Jingyan looked at her, his gaze filled with a layer of gentleness under the faint moonlight.

"Qixi, you always have some different thoughts than others."

Yun Qixi laughed and said, "Maybe it's because I prefer to be unrestrained."

After returning from the rear mountain, Yun Qixi seemed to be a little tired. She threw her bag on the table and lied down on the bed.

Zhang Qinxue walked to the side of the table and took out the magnolia jade hairpin from her half-opened bag. With a complicated expression, she asked faintly.

"Qixi, your jade hairpin is very beautiful. Where did it come from?"
