Chapter 248 Returning to the Palace
It snowed all night, and it gradually became smaller during the day.

Qin Wan's appetite improved a little this morning. After eating some porridge, Xiao Shunzi waited outside, waiting for Qin Wan to summon him in.

Xiao Shunzi had never met Qin Wan, nor had she been alone with Qin Wan. After all, she was the master, so Xiao Shunzi was still quite afraid of her.

Although she seemed to be very approachable according to the rumors, Xiao Shunzi was still a little worried.

Qin Wan asked his servants to put away all the things, and then called Xiao Shunzi in.He was extremely reserved, and he didn't dare to breathe when he saw Qin Wan, as if Qin Wan was going to eat him.

Qin Wan smiled: "What are you afraid of?"

Xiao Shunzi shook his head: "The servant is not afraid."

Qin Wan smiled and said, "Look at your legs shaking like chaff."

Xiao Shunzi lowered his head: "Princess...do you need a slave here for something?"

Qin Wan said: "It's nothing, I just heard that your original surname is Zhong?"

Xiao Shunzi was puzzled by Qin Wan's question, so Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, and said straightly: "Yes, before entering the palace, the slave's surname was Zhong, but now it is not Zhong."

Qin Wan said: "Where are you from?"

Xiao Shunzi said: "The slave originally lived in Fengzhen, but later the master and his family moved to the capital, and later the master's family fell, so the slave entered the palace as a slave."

Qin Wan nodded. She remembered that when she was born, her grandfather's family had already moved to the capital, so she had never seen her grandfather until now. Her mother told her these things later.

As for Xiao Shunzi's mother, Qin Wan has never seen her again, and only heard her parents mention her occasionally. Qin Wan only remembers that in the year Xiao Shunzi's parents got married, her mother took her to the capital together. Well, it's just that Qin Wan was still in her mother's womb at that time.

Qin Wanyin asked, "What are your parents' names?"

Xiao Shunzi said truthfully: "My mother's surname is Qin, and her name is Qin Zhen, and my father's surname is Zhong, and his name is Zhong Xin."

Sure enough, they were exactly the same, Xiao Shunzi did not lie to Qin Wan.Although there is nothing to lie about this kind of thing, it is not ruled out that some people will even lie about this kind of thing.

Qin Wan frowned.

"How long have you been in the palace?"

Xiao Shunzi said: "Entered the palace at the age of seven, now it has been nine years."

That said, he was younger than his own age.

Qin Wan said: "Who told you to enter the palace?"

Xiao Shunzi said: "The slave entered the palace voluntarily. There are two younger brothers in the slave's family, but the family can't afford food, so the slave has to sell himself to the palace as a slave."

Qin Wan said: "You are a filial child."

Xiao Shunzi lowered his head and said, "My parents gave birth to me and raised me, how could I just let them starve to death and leave me alone?"

Qin Wan said: "Then where are your parents now?"

Xiao Shunzi said: "Still in the capital, the servants will visit them whenever they have a chance."

"Then your two younger brothers?"

Xiao Shunzi said: "Everyone is doing well."

Qin Wan was very happy when he mentioned his family members. It can be seen that he is a very family-loving person, and he is a person with a strong sense of responsibility and affection. For such a person, as long as you treat him well, he will be fine. I'll do something I'm sorry for you.

So Qin Wan was very relieved of him.

Such a person would have no problem following Xiao Wu.

Someone walked in, but it wasn't Sui Feng, but Yang Wei.

"Princess, the prince said that everything has been packed and we will leave tomorrow."

Qin Wan was almost taken aback: "Tomorrow? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Yang Wei glanced at Xiao Shunzi, Qin Wan understood, and said to Xiao Shunzi, "Go down, it's none of your business here."

Seeing Xiao Shunzi leave, Yang Wei lowered his voice and said to Qin Wan: "My lord has just received the news that the imperial court has sent people here, so I have to go back early."

Qin Wan nodded.

The imperial court originally wanted to keep this group of soldiers, but Xian Yumo wanted to keep them wholeheartedly.If they were to survive, they would have to confront the court. It's not that Xian Yumo didn't dare, but he was afraid that the city gate would catch fire, which would harm the fish in the pond.

Qin Wan touched her lower abdomen and sighed softly.

"If it wasn't for having this child, when would the prince have been so angry?"

Yang Wei also lowered his head, not knowing how to reply.

Qin Wan said: "You don't have to guard here anymore, go back to the prince."

Yang Wei had no choice but to leave first.

At night, the snow spots fell all over the ground again, and it was already four o'clock when Xian Yumo came back.

He quietly pushed open the door and tiptoed into the room, not daring to make any noise for fear of disturbing Qin Wan's rest.

But Qin Wan didn't sleep at all, she was waiting for Xian Yumo to come back.

"Momo, are you back?"

Xian Yumo heard Qin Wan's voice, so he lit two more lamps.

"You haven't slept yet?"

Qin Wan patted the empty seat beside him: "Sit down, I have something to tell you."

Xian Yumo sat down obediently. He always listened to Qin Wan's words, not fearing his wife, but loving his wife.

"Momo, is everything done?"

Xian Yumo nodded: "The people have already been sent away, and the entrance has been blown up. Thinking about it, even if they really came, they won't be able to find anything, not to mention there are people from the Lin family covering us."

Qin Wan breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, as long as no innocents are hurt."

Seeing her acting like this, Xian Yumo felt uncomfortable in every possible way, because he said: "I know what you are thinking in your heart, are you thinking that you and the child are dragging me down?"

Although Qin Wan shook her head, she still knew that she couldn't hide it from Xian Yumo.

Yin said: "You know and ask me."

Xian Yumo gently grabbed her hand, and said, "I just asked you if I knew it, so that you don't overthink it."

Qin Wan said: "According to your temperament, if you change from the past, you will definitely not give in to the court. Isn't it because you are afraid of hurting me?"

Xian Yumo scratched her nose with a smile, and said, "What do you know, when have you seen me suffer from shame, when have you seen me suffer from others."

The truth is, Qin Wan really didn't see who Xian Yumo suffered from.

Yin said: "Then why are you this time..." Before she could finish her sentence, she had already closed her mouth. She should have known why Xian Yumo gave in this time. It was not just for her and the child, but also for the pen treasure.

Qin Wan said: "Your calculation is good. If you take a step back, you won't be suspicious. I'll pay you back..." Qin Wan snorted softly, "You're really annoying!"

Xian Yumo hurriedly said, "Why do I hate it? I'm also doing it for our future, right?"

Qin Wan spat at him and said, "Then you should have made it clear to me earlier, lest I have to blame myself for so long."

Xian Yumo smiled and said, "I just like seeing you like this."
