After Reincarnating, the Ice-Cold Prince Won’t Leave Me Alone

  Chapter 40 Ferry

  She thought in her heart that it would be several years before the child was found.

  Thinking that the child might be suffering somewhere, she felt a little uncomfortable,

  Xiao Xuetuan in his arms smelled the smell of meat wafting from the kitchen, broke away from Shen Mingjiao's embrace a few times, and ran away in a flash, leaving only a snow-white afterimage.

  The little boy suddenly pointed at the running figure of Xiaoxuetuan, and jumped up in surprise: "That's it, that's it...a white shadow..."

  Shen Mingjiao's heart skipped a beat, she covered her beating heart, squatted down, and said softly: "Hey, tell sister, where did the white shadow you saw go?"

  Seeing the beautiful sister talking to him so gently, the little boy scratched his head foolishly:

   "Shirokage...Shirokage flew into the big house...and the dog barking..."

  …

  Shen Mingjiao found Xiaorui, the maid who was slapped in the face by Mrs. Lian before.

  After using Shengji Yufu Ointment, the scars on Xiaorui's face healed much faster. Therefore, she was very grateful to Shen Mingjiao.

  Seeing Shen Mingjiao coming, she hurriedly stepped forward to salute respectfully.

  Shen Mingjiao raised her hand to support her, and said in a deep voice, "I want to ask you a few words."

   "How was the relationship between Mr. Zhao and Mrs. Zhao before meeting Cailian?"

  Xiaorui didn’t know why, but she answered truthfully:

"Before the two got engaged, the young lady hadn't seen the adult very much. At first, the young lady was indifferent to this marriage. Later, after the young lady came back from a trip, she suddenly became interested in the adult, and sent him to the Zhao residence in a different way all day long. thing…"

  Shen Mingjiao took a deep breath, and continued to ask: "After those two got married, how has Mr. Zhao's attitude towards Mrs. Zhao changed?"

  Xiao Rui thought for a while: "When I first got married, the adults hated the young lady very much, and would bring Cailian into the young lady's yard from time to time to humiliate her, but the young lady always looked calm at that time, as if she didn't care at all.

  Later, the adult was demoted to Luodu, and his attitude towards the young lady suddenly faded away. He never stepped into the young lady's yard on weekdays, as if there was no such person in the mansion, but he didn't deduct food and benefits from the young lady's yard.

  Miss became interested in adults instead. I once saw the lady staring at the back of adults in a daze. "

  Shen Mingjiao stepped out of the courtyard quickly, with a heavy heart, she ordered the guards who stayed in the courtyard: "Send me to the Zhao residence."

  At this time, a guard came over and reported: "Princess, the person you sent to Jiangnan to check on Miss Yunshu has returned."

  …

  The Zhao Mansion was surrounded by officers and soldiers, and the maids and women in the backyard were in a mess.

  In Mrs. Zhao's yard, Xiaodie looked at the chaotic scene outside the yard, and said in a panic: "Madam, I heard that your lord committed a serious crime. We...will we be beheaded..."

  Ms. Zhao seems unaware of all this, and she seems to be in excellent spirits today. In front of the vanity mirror, I began to paint my eyebrows and lips with great interest. Paired with a bright red skirt, it added a little freshness to her originally pale face.

  She looked at herself in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction.

   "Xiaodie, do you know? It was also the season when peonies bloomed that year. The man suddenly appeared in a green suit and beat back the dandies who stood in front of him.

   Then he pulled me and kept running... kept running...through the sea of ​​flowers...the road seemed to have no end..."

   she murmured. A bright smile slowly appeared on his pale face, as if he could vaguely smell the refreshing fragrance of flowers when he was running.

  Looking at such a wife, Xiaodie couldn't help crying sadly, feeling deeply worthless for her wife.

  Madam Zhao touched the little girl's head, and said with a soft smile, "Why are you crying?"

  Paused: "You and Concubine Su are predestined. For the book's sake, she will settle you down after I leave. In this way, I can rest assured!"

   Xiaodie suddenly realized something, grabbed Mrs. Zhao's wrist, and cried, "No, I'm not going anywhere...Madam, please don't do stupid things..."

   Before she finished speaking, Mrs. Zhao looked straight at her. Her voice stopped abruptly, and her eyes gradually became hollow and dull.

   Mrs. Zhao walked out of the yard, and the servants who were in a mess saw her as if they had found a backbone, and surrounded her one after another.

   Mrs. Zhao raised her eyes and glanced lightly, the originally noisy crying stopped suddenly, and everyone stood there with dull expressions.

  She passed in front of the crowd, went straight through the front yard, and came to the gate.

  Tie Zhu, who was in charge of guarding the Zhao residence, led the guards over: "Madam, you can't go out."

  Madam Zhao bit the tip of her tongue. The pain made her chaotic mind a little clearer. She raised her eyes, and a pair of beautiful obsidian eyes swept over her.

  Tie Zhu and the others were stunned for a moment. Their intuition from battlefield experience made them instinctively want to avoid it, but this force was so powerful that they finally stiffened slowly, and their originally sharp eyes became dull.

  Madam Zhao suppressed the itch that was rushing up her throat, stared at the eyes of several people and said word by word:

   "Mrs. Zhao has been staying in the backyard. You have never seen Mrs. Zhao leave the house."

  Then, she turned around and left the Zhao Mansion as if no one else was there.

   When he reached the corner, he coughed violently. Bending down, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

  She straightened up, looked in the direction of the capital, and murmured:

   "Don't worry, as long as it's something you want to do, I will help you, even if it's... risking my life!"

  As soon as Mrs. Zhao left, Tie Zhu and the others came to their senses and rubbed their foreheads, as if they had just dozed off.

  At this time Shen Mingjiao came over, jumped off the carriage hastily, and asked Tie Zhu, "Where is Mrs. Zhao?"

  Tie Zhu was taken aback, and subconsciously replied: "Mrs. Zhao has been staying in the backyard."

  Shen Mingjiao breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt uneasy in her heart, so she directly walked to the backyard.

   Along the way. Seeing that all the maids and women she met looked stunned, she became more and more uneasy.

  Pushing open the door, she saw that the room was empty, Xiaodie squatted on the ground and silently wiped her tears,

  Seeing Shen Mingjiao approaching, she wiped her face and cried, "Sister Gillian, madam is gone, and will never come back..."

  Shen Mingjiao suppressed her confused thoughts, and asked, "What's going on, why is Madam gone?"

   "Ma'am... She said she was in too much pain, she wanted to die with the adults..."

  Shen Mingjiao patted her on the shoulder: "Don't worry? Madame is probably going out to relax, she won't do anything stupid."

  She intuited that Mrs. Zhao should have done something to Xiaodie, making Xiaodie think that she committed suicide in grief.

  She asked Tie Zhu who was following, "Where is Your Highness?"

   "His Royal Highness went down the official road leading to the capital."

  Shen Mingjiao pondered, that is to say, Feng Lisheng has already confirmed that Zhao Ke will follow the official path.

  She asked Tie Zhu: "If you want to go to the capital, which way is the fastest, the official road or the ferry?"

  Tie Zhu thought for a while and then said: "Naturally, it's a ferry. The horses have to stop halfway to make up for themselves."

  Shen Mingjiao got into the carriage immediately, "Take me to the ferry, and—"

  She quickly wrote a letter, "No matter what method is used, this letter must be delivered to His Highness as soon as possible."

  At this time, Feng Lisheng was ambushed by a large number of men in black.
