No matter how Qiu Yilan tried to stop or persuade her, Zhou’s mother was determined to protect the Lord to the end.
She even wanted to walk into the brocade curtain, lift up the curtain, sit by the bed and confess her loyal servant heart to Qiu Yilan... She was so frightened that Qiu Yilan did it without any hint from the boy next to her!
So, Zhou's mother blocked them, and Su He brought the bedding over. The grandfather and grandson made a floor bunk each at the south window and at the door.
What made the two people on the bed even more desperate was that Zhou's mother was not worried about sleeping in, and whispered to Su He: "We have been serving the princess during the day, don't accidentally sleep too much, and you won't know if someone comes in!"
Then, in the face of Qiu Yilan's various objections to no avail, the clever mother Zhou used her clothes belt to tie the doors and windows to herself, ensuring that any movement of these two places would wake them up! Even if this belt is cut off, they can wake up...
Such a loyal servant!
Qiu Yilan sighed deeply!
She held her breath and stared at the tent ceiling for a long time. She felt that Zhou's mother and Su He must have fallen asleep again, so she cautiously turned her head to look at the boy next to her. She couldn't help but be slightly startled at this sight: This boy is so handsome!
He looked to be only fifteen or sixteen years old, with sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples, eyes as cold as red phoenixes, and eyes as cold as stars. His fair face shone like a piece of flawless jade in the dim light cast from outside the tent! The slightly pursed thin lips are as bright as fresh flowers, which can be said to be extremely handsome!
Originally, this appearance was far better than that of ordinary people, and people couldn't help but feel ashamed after seeing it. But the helpless smile on his lips at this moment made him feel friendly.
Seeing Qiu Yilan turn her head, the bitter smile mixed with embarrassment deepened...
"They are sleeping, please leave quickly." Qiu Yilan had already developed an aesthetic value of putting strength first in the apocalypse, but at this moment, she was shocked by the young man's flawless appearance, and then whispered, "From now on, The window is open... The rear window is behind the screen and is locked from the inside. Just open it carefully. "
Unexpectedly, when the young man heard this, his wry smile deepened, and he told her in a low voice: "I'm afraid that my cousin will escape through the back window, so... before calling her just now, I went around to the back and blocked all the back windows from the outside... "
If you don't do this, you won't die...
Qiu Yilan suddenly remembered: "Then how did your sister leave just now? I saw her heading towards the back window!"
"... She failed to leave through the back window, but hid behind the screen. When the two servants came to the court to check, she took the opportunity to slip out. And down below..." The helplessness in the young man's eyes deepened - he watched helplessly at that time. He sneaked out with his cousin, but because he was in bed, Qiu Yilan was separated from him before he could get out of bed. He rashly climbed onto the girl's bed without saying anything, and was covered by the girl. He couldn't leave without explaining.
But after just a short delay, his cousin almost walked out of the door, and Zhou's mother came back to report the marks on the courtyard wall!
Qiu Yilan sighed silently: "Then what will you do now?"
"..." The young man asked tentatively, "Can the princess try to get rid of the servants?"
"I do, but as you saw just now, they are all afraid that I will be murdered. No matter how they try to get rid of me, it won't work!" The corner of Qiu Yilan's mouth twitched, "You have no other option?"
The young man pondered for a moment: "I can knock them out instantly, but..."
Before he could finish speaking, there was suddenly a loud sound of gongs coming from outside!
This sudden appearance in the silent night almost scared Qiu Yilan to the point of losing her breath!
But Zhou’s mother and Su Tong, who had just fallen asleep, jumped up at the same time!
"Princess?!" The grandfather and grandson looked at the tent first!
"I'm fine. What seems to have happened outside?" Qiu Yilan didn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or to be upset. Before she could finish her words, someone screamed outside: "It's broken! Hurry! Hurry!" Come on!"
When Zhou's mother heard this, she was surprised and said: "It seems to be right next door to our yard?!"
Unexpectedly, a woman's shrill voice pierced the night sky again: "That broomstick who defeated your father, mother and brother! During the day, my aunt was so kind that she didn't kill her, but now the family is in trouble... I'll kill you You deserve to have a rotten heart, a rotten lung, a rotten stomach, and a bad death!"
Su He's face turned pale with anger: "This old lady Li! Why is she so vicious?! The princess is fine in the house, but she still has to blame the princess for the water?!"
"I'm afraid some people don't believe that I don't have the two dowry lists." Qiu Yilan's eyes turned cold and she said calmly, "They want to use fire to force me to run out with the lists!"
Zhou's mother was lying in bed with her clothes on. She had already put on her outer robe and said in a deep voice: "Princess, please stay here for a while, I will go out and have a look!" Before Qiu Yilan asked Su He to accompany her, she had already He sternly warned Su He, "You have to keep an eye on the princess here! If I can't stop him in a while, you will risk your life to protect the princess, do you understand?!"
Su He nodded solemnly: "Grandma, please don't worry!"
Mother Zhou walked out of the door, and Qiu Yilan quickly called Su He: "You also go outside and watch over Mother Zhou! Mother is old, and that old lady Li outside doesn't sound like a good thing. Don't ask Mother Zhou to eat." What a loss!”
Su He shook his head: "Grandma asked the servant to look at you!"
Before she finished speaking, there was already a fierce noise outside. Even the clanging gongs and the noisy fire fighting could not be suppressed—
"Mother Sun! You speak with your conscience! My princess is in the house well and you accidentally got into the water. Why are you scolding my princess?!"
"I'm calling you a broom star, you mean the one you serve is the one?!"
"you!"
"Mother Zhou, you are serious. Mother Sun has been scolding here for a long time, and no servants in other rooms have come out to argue with the master. You are the only one here. Do you have a guilty conscience or a guilty conscience?!"
"you… "
"What's wrong with us? What's wrong with what Mother Sun said? There's no water in the palace! It's still snowing... The person in the house was in the water as soon as he came back. If it wasn't her, who else could it be?! You said ! Say it! Say it!”
"You go out and persuade Mother Zhou to come back." Qiu Yilan's face was ashen and she called Su He softly, "Mother Zhou is alone, and those people outside are working together to step on us. The more noisy she is, the more she will suffer... As long as the fire is not directed towards us. Come here and leave it alone."
Su He hesitated for a moment and then said: "Then...servant, please go to the corridor and shout?"
Qiu Yilan breathed a sigh of relief, and taking advantage of the noise outside the window, she said to the young man next to her: "Be prepared, and be sure to seize this opportunity!"
The young man whispered: "Thank you for your kindness... I will definitely pay you back in the future!"
but!
The next moment, Qiu Yilan shouted in shock: "What are you doing out of the window?!"
The little maid who climbed up the window with an embroidery stool explained with a flushed face: "My maid is afraid of the dark. There are no lights outside... My maid... doesn't dare to go out from there..."
"...Climb." Qiu Yilan fell back on the pillow weakly.
She thought that if the maid climbed out, the young man next to her would have a chance to leave, right
However, when Su He reached the window, he didn't even leave! She just stood outside the window and called Mama Zhou!
The point of her thoughtfulness is... the door to the outside of this room is on the corridor she is guarding...
Qiu Yilan and the young man next to her felt that they were going to die - suddenly there was a sound outside the back window, and the girl who had tricked her cousin before and walked away lowered her voice and said: "Cousin! Before the fire I set is extinguished, Let’s go! If you don’t go, you will become a flower picker!”
"...!" Qiu Yilan.
"...!!!" That boy.
