Song Yin stood on a high stool, waving a flag and directing the soldiers to change formation.
“Young master.”
Xiao Si tilted his head and shouted.
Song Yin glanced at him, saw that he looked anxious, gestured for a junior captain to come forward, got off the high stool himself, and handed over the flag.
Walking to one side, he asked Xiao Si, “What’s wrong?”
Practising was a big deal, and Xiao Si knew the importance of the matter; if it was nothing serious, he would not have disturbed him at this time.
Xiao Si glanced around and whispered, “Someone is coming from the capital.”
“Go.”
Xiao Si went to take the horses, and Song Yin headed for the exit of the barracks.
The soldiers all recognised him and greeted him with courtesy. When the soldiers guarding the entrance to the barracks saw Xiao Si leading the horse over, they even opened the barracks gate straight away.
The two of them went out, rolled onto their horses, and went back to the city at a fast pace.
A man in his thirties, with dark skin and stubble on his face, was waiting inside the meeting room when he heard footsteps and hurriedly got up, “Young master.”
“What has happened?”
“Miss Song already knows about the chief.”
Song Yin’s tone sank slightly as he stepped back, “How did she know?”
“It’s, it’s because I ran into Second Miss Gu when I went to Jiangnan.”
Song Yin looked towards him.
The man could barely stand up to his harsh gaze.
No one had expected such a coincidence. Jinling City was so big, and Gu Wen and Kong Qing had gone to do some shopping and met up with Miss Song.
He swallowed his saliva, “Miss Song asked to bring you a message, saying, saying that you should wait! She …… she said she couldn’t spare you.”
Bang!
Xiao Si happened to come in, and when he heard these words, he stumbled and hit the door frame, his eyes tearing up in pain.
Song Yin looked at him with disdain, out of breath!
Xiao Si was about to cry, Miss Song couldn’t even spare the young master, let alone him, wouldn’t he still be drawn and quartered?
Song Yin withdrew his gaze and walked towards the chair, somehow his left foot tripped over his right foot and he lunged forward.
“Young master!”
“Master!”
The man and Xiao Si pounced on them, Song Yin had instantly stood firm on his body, “It’s alright, the ground is a little uneven.”
Man, ……
Xiao Si, ……
The two men looked at him suspiciously.
Song Yin sat down with an uncharacteristic face, “What else did she say?”
The man shook his head, “Other than that, Miss Song didn’t say anything, but the chief guessed that she probably knew you were at the border.”
She had already known, otherwise she wouldn’t have donated the one million taels she had blackmailed from the Third Prince to the Ministry of Military Affairs to give to the generals at the border.
“Understood, you’ve worked hard all the way here, go down and rest well. Little Four, you lead the way.”
“Yes.”
When the two of them exited the parlour, Song Yin looked down at his trembling hands. He could imagine the gnashing of teeth as that maid spoke; he could also imagine that if he really met her, that maid would never forgive him lightly.
He shivered violently at the thought of that scene.
The sound of footsteps came, and Song Yin instantly sat up straight again.
Xiao Si ran in and ignored the rules and ran straight to him, “Young Master, I’ve thought about it, the best way to get Miss Song not to be angry is for you to make a trip back now, coax her properly and tell her of your compulsion, Miss Song might forgive you and then we both won’t be cleaned up so badly.”
Song Yin looked at him, “A trip back?”
Xiao Si nodded his head repeatedly.
“Maybe you’ll forgive me?”
Junior’s head nodded even faster.
“Won’t be cleaned up badly?”
Little Four’s head was nodding to the floor, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought it was a good idea.
Song Yin kicked it over, “You pig head, I’ll only get killed if I go back at this time.”
Xiao Si took the kick solidly, not jumping and saying it hurt like he did before, and asked in a daze, “Why, why?”
“She has known for a long time that we have cheated death, she should have been expecting me to contact her, it has been so long and we have not moved at all, she does not know what kind of anger she has become, if I go back at this time, it is strange that I will not be killed.”
“No, it can’t be!”
“No what?”
Xiao Si swallowed hard, “Miss Song likes you so much, she went to the capital to sue the imperial government for you despite your safety, she, she won’t kill you, at most, she’ll peel a layer of your skin.”
“Get lost!”
Xiao Si rolled and crawled out of the parlour, leaning against the wall outside and panting heavily for a while before dragging his legs and hanging his head to find Doctor Yao.
When he heard the movement, he looked up and saw him like this, and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Miss Song has sent word from our people, saying that we should wait, she won’t spare us.”
“Sizzle ……”
Yao Daifu cut his hand and hurriedly threw away the herbs, covered it tightly with his other hand, got up and found medicine to stop the bleeding and poured it on the wound.
Xiao Si didn’t care about him, wilting and sitting on the stool, “I can think of how I will be cleaned up by Miss Song, she will definitely hang me to the tree for three days and nights.”
The doctor’s hand shook and a large part of the bleeding medicine fell to the ground, his heart throbbed with pain.
Because of the pain, he was naturally not very angry, “Why are you panicking? Miss Song won’t be able to come for a while.”
“That’s not certain, she can have someone send a message to the young master, so ……”
The first thing you need to do is to get a message from the young master, so that you can follow the messenger.”
Hearing his words, Doctor Yao’s face also changed and he looked towards the door, his body even took a step back. Xiao Si also got up and scurried behind him with a single arrow step, only showing his head to look out.
For a long time, there was no movement at the door.
Yao Daifu’s heart dropped and he elbowed Xiaosi, “Don’t scare ……”.
The words did not finish, the sound of footsteps came from outside, Xiao Si was so scared that he buried his head behind him, Yao Dafu’s body also involuntarily shivered, two eyes wide, looking straight at the door.
The subordinate came in and met the gaze of Doctor Yao, his face turned white with fear, “Yao, Doctor Yao, out, out ……”
The usually good-tempered Doctor Yao copied an object and smashed it over, the injured one covering his heartbeat that was beating too fast and almost collapsing on the stool.
Xiao Si also glared fiercely at his subordinate, “Who told you to come over at this time? You’re scaring us to death.”
The subordinate was full of grievances, it was the young master who told him to come over, besides he was walking very loudly, even if Doctor Yao couldn’t hear him, Xiao Si should have heard him, so how did he scare them?
But the subordinate didn’t dare to argue, “Young master called you guys over.”
“Got it.”
The subordinate hurriedly withdrew, and Xiao Si also covered his chest and sat on the stool for a while to slow down, before he got up and assisted Doctor Yao to the parlour.
Song Yin leisurely sipped his tea, seeing the two men’s appearance, he laughed at them, “Look at your outbursts, isn’t it just being cleaned up, what’s there to be afraid of?”
