Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 269

In another villa outside the city, Qingzhi looked anxiously at the leftovers that were packed away by some little girls who were pleasing to the eye and dared not raise their heads. , or cautiously waited for the little girls to exit the room, then moved over and said worriedly: "Girl, you eat too little, you will really get sick."

"It's okay, I know it well." Li Tian's voice was low and weak, and Yin Hua brought a cup of tea and handed it over: "Didn't the girl say that the crab leg cakes delivered yesterday are delicious? Why don't you tell Huang Ming and let him Every day I go to the capital to buy food and bring it here." When Yinhua said this, her eyes flashed brightly, she clapped her hands softly and said in a low voice: "Didn't Miss say that it is good for that scoundrel to come every night, maybe our lord can follow behind and look for him?" Miss, if you send food here every day, maybe you can also attract our lord to come here!"

"That's a good idea! Kill two birds with one stone!" Qingzhi's eyes lit up as well, Li Tian held the cup in both hands, thought carefully for a while, then shook his head and said: "Don't rush back, it's November, we'll talk about it then .”

"What's wrong in November?" Yin Hua looked at a loss, Qing Zhi also looked at Li Tian in confusion, Li Tian looked at the two of them with extraordinarily large eyes because of his thinness, and smiled without answering.

"Girl, it's better to go back early. That person runs here every night and turns around...how can I explain this clearly?" Qingzhi persuaded full of worry, from being captured here, from knowing who captured him, this It was the biggest worry in her heart, Yin Hua sighed: "It would be great if... the girl hasn't consummated the marriage, at least I can explain it clearly." Li Tian almost choked on the tea, handed the cup to Yin Hua, took it The handkerchief wiped his hands, and the expression on his face was very indifferent: "There is nothing to say, he believes it naturally, if he doesn't believe it, it's useless to say anything, okay, don't worry about these useless things, today's charcoal ash Are you ready?"

"I'll go right away!" Yin Hua hurriedly jumped up and said, that bottle of face powder was used up in one night, the amount of two bottles of face powder in one night is too suspicious, and besides Li Tian was ill again, Yin Hua and Qing Zhi came up with the idea It is better to sprinkle charcoal powder on the ground than incense powder.

The early morning in the suburbs was bitterly cold, the fourth prince stepped out of the courtyard very lightly, stood at the gate of the courtyard, looked back at the low lanterns in the courtyard, lost his mind for a long time, and then quickly went out and got on his horse to go back. In any case, he had to get away from this cozy little courtyard that haunted his dreams before dawn.

In the darkness, Li Tian opened her eyes and looked at the pitch-black window. It was cloudy again. There was no moonlight or starlight outside the window. Li Tian shivered and rolled herself into a ball. The kang in the room was fully heated and warm as spring, but she still felt Cold, Li Tian wrapped up the quilt, moved his head on the pillow, pulled out a bundle of black hair that was under his face and put it behind him, moved again, listened carefully to Qingzhi's long breathing, before falling asleep She smelled a very faint fragrance, and Li Tian showed a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, slightly raised his head to look at the still dark window, and was lost in a daze.

She was actually captured as a bird in a cage. Li Tian felt unspeakable emotions in her heart. She couldn't understand the mentality of someone who treats people as pets, but she knew that no matter how noble the cage was, it was still a cage. For pets, A cage is a cage, whether it is made of cast iron or inlaid with gold beads and jade is for the owner to see. For pets, all cages are the same. Li Tian suddenly remembered the Pekingese she had raised, and she gave it to use Passing the red and sapphire dog leash, a sneering smile leaked from the corner of Li Tian's mouth.

People can't be kept as pets because they have ideas, scheming, and calculations. People who don't want to be pets will devour the self-righteous owner. Li Tian narrowed his eyes, and stretched out his fingers again to calculate Zhu Mingyan's due date.

In the main courtyard of the Prince's Mansion in Jinning County, the capital city, the fifth prince put on a cloak and pushed the door to stand on the porch, looking up at the dark sky, thinking about the nightmare just now, his heart was as empty and black as the sky .

What happened to her?The fifth prince lowered his head and stepped forward step by step around the corridor. She had a tough temper and Yue Niang was not by her side. The fifth prince felt a pain in his heart. If anything happened, she should not be stupid, the most important thing was her life thing.The Fifth Prince stopped in his tracks, clenched and loosened his hands, took a deep breath of cool air, suppressed the resentment and hatred in his heart, raised his hand and thumped heavily on the pillar next to him, it wasn't her fault, it was I have implicated her, if not for me, she would not have been involved in the world's biggest and dirtiest struggle for power.

what is she doing nowAsleep or awake?She sleeps very lightly, and her mind is heavy. She still doesn't know how to suffer these days. The fifth prince stood in the yellow halo at the door of the main room, turned his head to watch the little girl open the curtain, waved his hands to signal them not to follow, and continued with his hands behind his back. Walk down the corridor.

"My lord, it's cold outside, let's go in." Mammy Xiong came out out of nowhere, and found an opportunity to persuade her softly. The fifth prince stopped and looked at Mammy Xiong fixedly. Heading into the room with her head down, she talked to Madam Xiong: "I can't sleep, Mama Xiong can talk to me." Mama Xiong agreed, and followed the Fifth Prince into the upper room. She also wanted to talk to him say something.

"Sit down, ma'am." The fifth prince removed the cloak and sat on the kang, motioning for mama Xiong to sit down too. Mama Xiong and Yingluo waited for the prince to wash his hands and face, then took the tea and served it to him. Only then did he sit down on the little twig next to him.

"Did you go to the temple to offer incense again yesterday?" The fifth prince sipped his tea and said in a warm voice. Mammy Xiong sighed softly: "Using incense sticks to pray for the princess's safety is also to seek peace of mind for myself. Since the princess went to Puji that day, I haven't slept well since the temple didn't come back." Mammy Xiong sighed again, the fifth prince looked downcastly, looked down at the clear tea in the cup, and then looked up at Mammy Xiong after a while, and said in an extremely firm tone: " Tian Tian will come back safely."

"I think so too!" Mammy Xiong raised her hand and wiped her tears: "The concubine has a tough temper, she has grown up so much, she has never been willing to make people gossip, but in the past two years..." Mammy Xiong's eyes were too much to wipe away. Cleanliness: "My concubine has committed Tai Sui! Tell me, who is our girl provoking?" The fifth prince's body was slightly stiff, and before he could speak, Mammy Xiong wiped away her tears and said, "My lord! I'm not an outsider, and I'm not afraid of the prince's jokes. I don't care about other things. I just want the girl to come back safely. As long as the girl is safe and sound, besides... nothing matters, prince, don't you think? So what if I am decent? At worst, I will accompany the girl to find a nunnery to live in. Before leaving, the old lady took my hand and confessed that she must protect the girl no matter what, but I am useless... "The more Mother Xiong said, the more sad she became.

The Fifth Prince's eyes became darker and darker, he looked at Mammy Xiong silently, and after watching her cry for a while, he said slowly and clearly: "Mommy is right, nothing matters, don't worry, I will tell you Same, I just hope that Tian Tian will come back safely, as long as she comes back safely!" The fifth prince emphasized the last sentence heavily, Mammy Xiong's sobs suddenly subsided, and the veil pressed the corners of her eyes to watch the expression of the fifth prince carefully.The fifth prince showed a trace of exhaustion: "Mommy!" The fifth prince's slender fingers rubbed his brows vigorously, as if he didn't know what to say, he put down his fingers after a while, looked directly at Mammy Xiong and said: " Mammy is Tian Tian's nanny, I have brought her up since she was a child, I know that Mammy treats her more than my own daughter, I am a husband and wife enemy with her, without her..." The fifth prince said no in a daze After going down, he never thought about what would happen without her?Yes, without her, can I still be the same as before?Can he go back to the way he lived before he married her, before he knew her?Without her... the fifth prince shivered heavily, without her, wouldn't he be alone in this world?Standing alone, looking around at a loss... The fifth prince didn't dare to think about it anymore, as if to embolden himself, he clenched his fists and bit each word: "Tiantian must be fine, nothing will happen to her! She must be mediocre Ann is back!"

Mammy Xiong stared at the Fifth Prince without losing her expression, seeing him say this, she felt a little relieved.

In the post house of Ninggan Mansion, Xu Sihai crossed his legs and sat on the first chair on the left row with a relaxed expression, holding a tea bowl and sipping tea, squinting his eyes to enjoy it.

Zhao Mingqian came in a few steps from the back hall in an indigo Taoist robe, cupped his hands at Xu Sihai and smiled, "Xu Bangyan came to look for me, why don't someone come over and tell me first? It also saves Xu Bangyan from waiting for a long time."

"I haven't finished a bowl of tea yet, how can I say I've waited for a long time?" Xu Sihai said with a smile on his face, "Zhao Yushi is a senior, so I have to wait for you, but there is no reason for you to wait for me!" Zhao Mingqian smiled. Narrowing his eyes, he bowed his hands politely, while staring at Xu Sihai solemnly and cautiously. I am afraid that if he has nothing to do, he will go to the Three Treasure Hall, which is definitely not a good thing!In the case of Ding's mansion, his scheming and acting were all admirable!

Zhao Mingqian couldn't stop chatting with Xu Sihai but didn't ask him why he came. Xu Sihai seemed to be in a good mood. He and Zhao Mingqian really talked about the popularity of Taoist robes, which new words were the most interesting, and then came to this Ning The Gan Mansion is not bad in winter. I don’t know what’s going on in the capital now. After a long journey, Xu Sihai accepted it with an unsatisfied expression and turned to the main topic: "Compared with the capital, this Ning Gan Mansion is really It's very boring, the trial of Dingzhifu and Lengzhi County is almost over, and we have to discuss with Zhao Yushi how to handle this case." Zhao Mingqian's heart jumped when he heard this, his whole body was on guard, and even his hairs stood on end. Looking at Xu Sihai, he said with a dry smile: "This matter is up to Xu Bang, you should tell me first, what is going on with this case?"

"It's not a big deal!" Xu Sihai replied lightly: "Ding Jin came from a mixed background, and he took the post of magistrate of Ninggan Prefecture in one leap. Discord is not the fault of one person, but because of this, prefect Ding is too daring to slander and arrest a county magistrate."
