The Regent's Sweetheart

Chapter 284

After leaving the Daxiangguo Temple, it was pitch black outside, and we could only see the road by the faint moonlight.

"Come with me." Little Niqian said to Xuemei, and walked down the stone ladder at the door in a few steps.

Xuemei couldn't see the road clearly, she took every step carefully, for fear of stepping on something.

It was so windy outside that it made people's ears hurt. Xuemei didn't wear much thick clothes when she came out this time, just a thin jacket, and her gums were chattering with the cold.

"Here, you put it on first, then you take it off for me when you arrive."

Facing Little Niach's kindness, Xuemei quickly shook her head, subconsciously looked around, the shadow guard was following her.

Even if she couldn't see it, it didn't mean she didn't have it. If the shadow guard spoke out, would she still have to live?

"I'm not cold." After saying that, he strode forward.

"Hey!" Little Loach was startled, and shouted in a low voice, "Isn't the Prince Regent's Mansion over there?"

He remembered that it was in the mansion area, and it was not close to the city gate.

Xuemei knew she had made a mistake, so she hurried back.

There was a little loach leading the way, but there were no guards on patrol along the way.

Xuemei walked through the back door of the palace, glanced at Little Niqian at the door, and said, "Wait here for a while, I have something for you."

"Ah?" Little Niqiu looked at Xuemei in confusion.

After taking two steps, Xuemei turned her head and said, "Don't leave, wait for me."

"Hmm." Little Loach nodded earnestly.

When Xuemei returned to Shuanghuaju, Qingtao opened the door, and Qingtao asked coldly, "Why did you come back so soon?"

"Guan..." Xuemei suddenly fell silent, and then said perfunctorily, "I went out to do some errands."

After saying that, he went back to the house without looking back. After entering the house, he wanted to take out the new padded jacket, but he didn't want Qingtao to see him, so he took a look at the door of the house and found that Qingtao had entered the hall.

It seems that Qingtao is keeping vigil for the empress today.

So he hurried out of Shuanghuaju with his padded jacket.

Along the way, he met guards who were watching the night in the mansion, but these people didn't care if it was Xuemei.

When he arrived at the back door of the palace, Little Niach was still waiting outside, but squatted in a corner, shrunk into a ball.

She stood in front of Little Niach holding her new padded jacket, and said, "Take off your dirty one and wear mine."

She put a lot of cotton in this new padded jacket, and it was still heavy to hold.

Seeing Little Loach in a daze, she urged: "Can you hurry up?"

"Oh." Little Niqiu hurriedly took off his old padded jacket, and then put on the padded jacket Xuemei gave him.

This new padded jacket is different, the fabric is very soft, and it is the first time in his life that he has worn such comfortable clothes.

Xuemei frowned and looked at it. It was a little bigger, but it was okay, so she said, "Go back quickly."

"Okay." Little Loach responded, then picked up the old cotton-padded jacket on the ground, and put the old cotton-padded jacket on the outside.

The whole person looks bigger.

Xuemei was amused by Little Niach's appearance, and the red bean hairpin on her bun was more conspicuous when she lowered her head and covered her mouth and chuckled.

When I returned to Shuanghua Residence again, I found that the gate of Shuanghua Residence was closed again!
She remembered that she left the door open when she left.

After being frozen outside for a while, she still knocked on the door with a cheeky face, and it was still Qingtao who would open the door.

This time Qingtao didn't ask anything, and the cold and arrogant look on her face made people angry.

But Xuemei couldn't say anything, she thought for a while and asked, "Is your mother asleep yet?"

"I don't know." Qingtao said indifferently.

Xuemei puffed her cheeks, and said angrily, "You're on vigil! Don't you know?"

Qingtao didn't have any emotions, but said lightly: "You should keep watch today."
