Pei Qianhao walked over, clasped her waist with his right hand, laid her flat on the bed, and then pulled up the quilt to cover her. But who knows, as soon as she put it on, she opened it, her cheeks full of playfulness, and her cheeks flushed even more.
Sleeping is so uncomfortable, it's no wonder that the wind chill has not been completely healed today.
Pei Qianhao squeezed the quilt and covered her again, but she raised her hand and pulled him with a smile on her face. If it weren't for her eyes closed and her behavior abnormal, he would think she was awake.
I saw Su Xi'er giggling a few times, holding Pei Qianhao's hand tighter and tighter, as if he cared, as if he was an indispensable part of her life.
However, when she yelled out two words sweetly, Pei Qianhao's face sank again.
"Mother..." In the past, she used to call her mother and step mother in private, and she was called mother and queen in front of outsiders.
These two words indicate that she must have dreamed of her own mother in her dream at this moment.
However, what she was holding was Pei Qianhao's hand, a man's hand, even though she knew she was dreaming, she still called to him.
Pei Qianhao's dark eyes were dark, bent down, attached to her ear, and said in a low voice, "This king is your mother? Do you have a mother like this king?"
The voice was full of danger, and the pressure came straight towards Su Xi'er. Even when she fell asleep, she felt it. She immediately let go of him, and lay down on the side of her body.
Pei Qianhao looked at her quietly. After a while, he covered her with a quilt, then sat on a wooden chair and rubbed his forehead lightly.
Until the voice of the guard sounded from outside the house, Pei Qianhao got up and immediately walked out of the house.
After leaving the house, Pei Qianhao swept over with a cold eye and motioned to the guard to speak quietly.
The guard immediately got up trembling, with a low voice, "King Hao, the matter has been settled. The case of Miss Wei Jia will be closed tomorrow."
Pei Qianhao nodded, "Tomorrow, be optimistic about Su Xier, she is not allowed to leave the post."
The guard nodded repeatedly, "Yes."
Su Xi'er at this time was sleeping soundly. The quiet night is peaceful, but the suburbs of Beijing are not so peaceful.
The next day, Su Xi'er opened her sleepy eyes, her first aches and pains, and she drank too much last night. Looking around, this is... King Hao's house.
Last night, did he bring himself in? Su Xi'er frowned and then lifted the quilt. When she saw the gray bellyband falling on the inside of the bed, she was stunned.
The coat was missing, the belly pocket fell off, what happened last night? Su Xi'er's head hurt again, the more he thought about it, the more it hurt.
She raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, and when the pain eased, she picked up her apron and put it on. Then I found the coat at the foot of the bed, beside it was a long strip of cloth.
Su Xi'er looked at the cloth strips while putting on her coat, as if she had been torn off forcibly. Could it be that she was drunk yesterday, and she was talking nonsense
"Su Xi'er, the medicine is here." The chef's voice sounded from outside.
Su Xi'er nodded, and then realized that the coarse cloth clothes she was wearing belonged to the cook.
"I spent three hours deliberately last night, then you would fall asleep. I followed King Hao's order and cooked it specifically for you, but didn't sleep all night." The cook gave the medicine bowl over with a smile, and then found out. His own clothes were wearing Su Xi'er.
"So you like to wear coarse cloth clothes. I still have them. I pulled the cloth a few days ago and just made them. If you like them, I will show them to you."
Su Xi'er took the medicine bowl and drank the medicine early in the morning. But the cook didn't sleep all night, she couldn't live up to their kindness.
"I will wash this clothes and return it to you. Yesterday, I took the clothes without telling you, sorry." Su Xier said politely, then picked up the medicine bowl and drank mouthfuls.
Carefully boiled medicine is suffering. After a while, Su Xi'er frowned.
The cook smiled, "For those who are afraid of hardships like you, you must take some candied dates. My family just planted a jujube tree, and now is the time to bear fruit. After some time, I will pick some and make candied dates. Bring it to you."
"Thank you madam." Su Xi'er smiled, then gritted her teeth and drank the bitter medicine quickly.
"Go to the dining room for breakfast. King Hao left the post house early this morning. He specially ordered people to look after you and not let you sneak out again. Be careful. If you commit another crime, you will be punished." The cook took the empty medicine bowl and ordered.
Su Xi'er nodded, "Thank you Madam for reminding me that I will not go out again."
After drinking the medicine, Su Xier and the auntie went out together, she walked into her house, and the auntie walked to the backyard.
After entering the house, Su Xier changed her coarse cloth clothes and put on a verdant dress. Then, he took a wooden basin and prepared to wash clothes by the well and return it to the aunt early.
However, when she just walked out of the house, she happened to see a few mature men delivering firewood, discussing carefully.
Su Xi'er walked a few steps forward quietly and heard their conversation.
"Unexpectedly, it was the treasurer of Fuxinglou and a fellow who killed Miss Wei Jia. They absconded in fear of crime, and died accidentally during a fight with the Yamen."
"Yes, Fuxinglou is the largest teahouse in Nanzhao, and the shopkeeper actually did such a thing. No matter how bad Miss Wei Jia is, it is a life!"
"The shopkeeper and the buddy, greedy for money, grabbed Miss Wei Jia's handle and begged for money. Hey, it's not a good thing to have money. My life is gone, poor Master Wei Jia."
Su Xi'er wondered, it was the shopkeeper and the buddies who would kill Miss Wei Jia. Those two were cowardly. What's more, the shopkeeper of the first teahouse has a lot of money every year, so he won't be greedy for money anymore.
Everything is a trap, someone set a trap specially, and the shopkeeper and the buddy are scapegoats.
"Let’s stop talking. This is the post house. It’s not good to be found by the guards of the Royal Palace with some broken mouths. Hurry up and unload the goods and leave."
The other mature men immediately began to unload the cargo, and it didn't take long before they pushed a few wooden carts and walked back.
As soon as they turned around, they saw Su Xi'er at the corner of the wall. Although she was dressed in coarse cloth, she couldn't hide her grace.
For decades, I have never seen such a beautiful woman. They couldn't help but think of the peerless beauty they had heard of a few days ago.
Does this peerless beauty have the beauty of a woman in front of her
Su Xier glanced at them, and then walked to the well. Several middle-aged men still stared at her back, and it was not until the guards of the Hao Palace reprimanded them that they came back to their senses.
"Forgive me, the little ones don't dare to watch it again."
The guard was displeased, "Get out of the post."
"Yes, the younger ones are leaving now." After speaking, the mature man speeded up, and soon disappeared.
The guard couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, no wonder King Hao ordered them to take good care of Su Xi'er. This woman is so attractive. Don't mention the post house, even in the post house, it is all eye-catching.
If Su Xi'er goes out, it is estimated that he can only follow King Hao. Otherwise, go out with ugly makeup.
