Chapter 679: 679 jumped out of the window was one of us

And every time after using, he would just leave, his heartlessness was infuriating.

Unfortunately, on this late night, he really couldn’t feel at ease letting a young girl walk such a long distance alone.

"This prince will escort you," said Prince Jing as he caught up to Ye Jiu.

"There’s no need, it’s not convenient for you to escort me. I’ll go by myself," Ye Jiu declined.

Prince Jing laughed, "This prince on horseback will certainly be faster than you walking. Moreover, it’s pitch-dark on this late night," as he spoke, Prince Jing grew more uneasy, "It’s unsafe for a girl like you to walk on the mountain paths. Didn’t I give you people for this? What are they for?"

It was only when the two of them arrived at the outpost’s entrance that Prince Jing understood why Ye Jiu had come alone.

No, to be precise, it wasn’t alone, for there was also Ye Bai.

Prince Jing could only helplessly hold his forehead, how could he have forgotten that this girl had a mount that could fly, taking the aerial route directly, which was much more useful than his treasured steed.

Watching Ye Jiu lean on Ye Bai’s back and then soar up into the sky, Prince Jing could only dejectedly return home in low spirits.

Prince Jing’s party left on the third day after the snow had melted, and the ground had dried up a bit. Ye Jiu went to send him off alone, but from start to finish, she never had the chance to see the Princess Consort.

Of course, Ye Jiu wasn’t hoping to see her anyway.

Some of the sweet potatoes at the farm were taken away by Prince Jing, but more were left behind. The following year, the sweet potatoes would be personally tested for planting by the Imperial Court, and then they would be promoted.

Prince Jing’s departure not only relieved Ye Jiu, but it also relieved the Ye family couple.

With Prince Jing gone, there was no one left to compete for their daughter, and their life would return to its former tranquility. Accordingly, the smiles on the faces of Mrs. He and Old Man Ye also grew more frequent these days.

The night after Prince Jing left, while Ye Jiu was soundly asleep, her window was suddenly pried open.

A black-clothed figure in tight-fitting attire was trying to enter from outside the window, but did not see a shadow suddenly plunging from the big tree in the yard, ramming into his back and thrusting him from outside the half-open window to inside.

Bang!

The black-clothed man fell into Ye Jiu’s room, landing right on the dressing table and smashing it to pieces.

Meanwhile, the black-clothed man also spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

At the same time, Ye Jiu bolted upright in bed, followed by Ye Bai’s voice outside, "Master, there’s a thief prying the window!"

Even under the blanket, a large knife appeared instantly in Ye Jiu’s hand. She jumped out of bed and charged towards the black-clothed figure with the knife.

The black-clothed man rolled away fiercely, narrowly escaping disaster, fear flashing in his eyes as he saw Ye Jiu’s next strike about to land on him when Guard Si Rong hurriedly shouted, "It’s me, Guard Si Rong, Miss Ye, please hold back!"

At this point, the large knife in Ye Jiu’s hand was not too close to Si Rong, so she managed to stop just in time.

"Guard Si Rong, it’s you?" Ye Jiu retracted her knife in surprise, "What are you doing prying my window in the middle of the night?"

Si Rong, who had been winded by the blow, finally managed to get his breath back enough to explain, "Miss Ye, I came to ask about the grain."

"Master..." At this moment, Ye Bai had already transformed back into human form, leaping through the window and landing inside the room, standing protectively in front of Ye Jiu with a defensive posture, watching Si Rong warily.

"He’s one of our own, don’t attack," Ye Jiu quickly explained.

Ye Bai felt somewhat aggrieved, fearing that Ye Jiu might blame him for accidentally injuring Si Rong due to his actions, which made him feel even less kindly towards Si Rong.
