Chapter 274
"Brother, it's not certain. You see, the father is now adoring that woman to the sky. It's hard to guarantee that he won't take away your son's position and give it to Xiao Ze just to please her." Xiao Xi confuses Xiao again. With a dose of strong medicine, he didn't believe that Xiao Nio sent someone to intercept and kill Xiao Ze and his party.

Xiao Yu was silent for a long time, but still shook his head and said resolutely: "No, time is too tight to make arrangements. This matter must be arranged in detail without leaving any flaws, otherwise I would rather not do it."

Seeing that his elder brother had made up his mind, Xiao Xi could only secretly regret the loss of such a good opportunity to kill two birds with one stone, and he sighed sadly: "Oh, what a pity, if we had known earlier that he had plans to leave the city, we would have been able to make preparations earlier. Save yourself from worrying about life every day.”

Xiao Yu didn't say anything, just sighed.Seeing this, Xiao Xi didn't say anything, and left Xiao Nuo's study silently.

After Xiao Xi left, Xiao Yu murmured to himself, "Should I send someone to intercept him? Ah Xi is right, this opportunity is really rare." Apparently Xiao Yu was also conflicted, he thought To attack Xiao Ze and Du Heng, but I was afraid that the time would be too tight and the arrangements would not be thorough enough.What's more important is that he hasn't handed over the murderer who killed Nanny Li's family to his father. This is currently the most troublesome thing for Xiao Nuo.

Xiao Nuo's assets are not much, so he can't afford to support too many killers and assassins. He only raises [-] dead soldiers in secret. It can be said that in Xiao Nuo's heart, these [-] people are more precious than the Cheng family. They are all Xiao Nuo's top picks, and even Xiao Nuo is reluctant to let anyone go.But he couldn't give up, he had to give his father an account of the past, otherwise... Xiao Nuo didn't dare to think about the consequences.

In Baopuyuan's study room, Prince Ning was talking to the head of the palace guard, "He Wu, what's the matter with your son recently?" Prince Ning asked suddenly.

Chief Guard He shook his head and said: "Back to the prince, there is no movement at the Shizi's place, everything is as usual."

"Why didn't the son go out of the city to investigate?" Prince Ning asked with a frown.

He Wu shook his head and said: "My son, I often go to Liulifang recently, and I have never left the city."

Prince Ning knew that his son went to Liulifang to find a birthday gift for himself, so he couldn't help showing a smile on his face. Although his eldest son is only ordinary, he is very filial, which is quite commendable.It's just that the birthday gift was not given until after the new year, but the murderer had to be arrested before the year, so why didn't Xiao Yu even prioritize?

"Understood, you go down first. If the son wants you to arrest someone, do as he tells you, and you don't have to go back and forth." Prince Ning ordered He Wu to let him go down once.He Wu secretly wondered, he didn't understand the purpose of the prince's order, could it be that he wanted to gradually hand over the power to the prince?

Xiao Ze, who didn't know that he was on the verge of danger, used the cold weather as an excuse to nest in a car with Du Heng. Although the car in the palace was spacious enough, the official road after leaving the capital was very unsatisfactory. It was too bumpy, Du Heng was staggered in the car, and would crash into Xiao Ze's arms from time to time, which made Du Heng extremely annoyed, but he couldn't get angry at Xiao Ze, after all, Xiao Ze still treated her He offered a helping hand, if Xiao Ze hadn't been a human cushion, Du Heng believed that his body would definitely be bruised and purple, and he would be in pain.

It's a rare opportunity to hold a beautiful woman in his arms. Xiao Zemei didn't even know who he was. After two or three bumps, Xiao Ze hugged Du Heng and didn't let go. If you want to hit me, just hit me, I have rough skin and thick flesh, but I have already been hit."

Du Heng earned a few bucks, but she couldn't break Xiao Ze's hands, and she couldn't yell loudly, after all, there were many palace guards and servants outside the carriage who were not Jiang Taiyuan's servants.Du Heng is a person who walks the talk, since she promised to have enough drama outside with Xiao Ze, she will not give anyone any chance to find out that they are not real couples.So Du Heng could only twist Xiao Ze's arm fiercely, and let him hug him dully.

Fortunately, Xiao Ze was also considered sensible, he only wanted to hold his wife in such a quiet way, and did not make any further moves, which also made Du Heng feel more at ease.

That bumpy road seemed really long to Du Heng, but it was too short to Xiao Ze. He wished that this road could never be completed in his lifetime, so that he could hold Du Heng for the rest of his life.

However, all roads in the world will have an end. Half an hour later, the carriage stopped, and Mrs. Gao's excited voice came in: "Go back to Mrs. Third Master, we have arrived at our village."

Du Heng immediately lowered his voice and shouted to Xiao Ze who was holding his arms tightly: "Don't let me go!"

Xiao Ze let out a muffled "Oh", and reluctantly let go of his arms.Du Heng immediately bounced to the side, with his back facing Xiao Ze and straightened his hair and clothes. Xiao Ze waited for Du Heng to finish tidying up before he opened the car door and jumped down first.

"Madam, please get out of the car." Xiao Ze stood beside the carriage, stretched out his hand to Du Heng, and said with a gentle smile.

"This guy is too thick-skinned!" Du Heng muttered to himself, but he still put his hand on Xiao Ze's hand in a face-saving manner, and he helped him get off the carriage.

Du Zhong led the head of the village and the tenants to come out to greet them, and they knelt down on the ground, and the voices of asking for peace kept coming and going, which shocked Du Heng. She never thought that Du Zhong would be greeted. so big.

The weather in the twelfth lunar month was really cold. Even though Du Heng was wearing extremely warm woolen clothes and holding a hot hand stove in his arms, he still felt the cold wind blowing towards him. , the vast majority of the tenant farmers wore thin cotton-padded clothes, everyone's face was blue from the cold, and some children's noses were red from the cold, and the two tubes of snot were almost frozen into ice lumps.

"Why do they still freeze outside in such a cold day? Manager Du, let them all go home quickly." Du Heng couldn't bear it, so he frowned and said to Du Zhong.

Du Zhongying stepped forward and said with a smile: "My Madam doesn't know something. It's not that the old slaves asked them to come. In fact, when everyone heard that the third master and his wife were coming, they all spontaneously came out to welcome them. Everyone wanted to kowtow to the third master and his wife. .”

Xiao Ze stood side by side with Du Heng, he said with a smile: "Even if you want to kowtow, you can't kowtow in this icy and snowy place, let everyone go back first. Ma'am, I'm already here anyway, so I'm not in a hurry to go back, why don't I let you go back?" They kill a few sheep and cook a few big pots of hot sheep soup, and then let the peasant women in the village rush to make some pancakes and vegetables, and we can be regarded as celebrating the New Year with everyone in advance. How do you think?"
