During the meal, Xiao Mubai asked about Su Qianle's situation in the past two days in early Xia.
When this topic came up, Xia Chu's mood obviously dropped: "She doesn't eat or drink, and she doesn't want to see me. She can only ask someone to make nutritious porridge and let Han Hong forcefully drink it."
Xiao Mubai curled his lips: "I wanted Han Sa to bring her back because I wanted to pry open her mouth. Do you still plan to give birth to her?"
Xia Chu sighed: "She is in a very bad state of mind right now. She has no desire to survive and can't ask any questions."
Xiao Mubai sneered: "Then let Xian Li pry her away. She has plenty of ways to kill her."
Xia Chu looked startled: "Forget it, I heard from Bian Ding that Cong Ting felt bad after watching Xian Li's interrogation. He walked around when he saw Xian Li, even a big man like him I can't bear just looking at it, let alone Su Qianle, whose body is already weak, to be tortured."
Xiao Mubai frowned slightly: "You still hope that Su Qian'an can persuade her when she comes back?"
Xia Chu lowered his head. Although he was disappointed and dissatisfied with Su Qianle, her becoming like this had something to do with him.
Of course he wouldn't keep her by his side, but he didn't want to kill her either.
When Su Qian'an comes back, it doesn't matter whether she can persuade her or not. It's up to her brother to decide how to deal with it.
Xia Chu looked up and saw Xiao Mubai pushing away the bowls and chopsticks. She didn't want to continue this topic anymore, so she said to him, "Let's go. I'll show you the gifts after we finish eating."
Xiao Mubai let him pull him all the way back to the room. Xia Chu took out a crescent-white robe from the cabinet, shook it off and walked towards him, compared it with him, and said with excitement : "I specially prepared it for you to wear to Xiao Yanjun's wedding. Who would have thought that it would be postponed and delayed until now to give it to you to try?"
Xiao Mubai took it in his hand, and as soon as he touched the fabric, he knew it was the priceless Huohuan cloth.
"It's not impossible, but..." Xiao Mubai raised his eyebrows and called to Han Hong outside the door: "Bring over the things you bought on the way back home."
"Ah?" Han Hong was obviously very surprised: "But..."
Xiao Mubai showed displeasure: "Go if you are told."
"Yes." Han Hong responded and quickly stepped back to get it.
"What made him turn pale?" Xia Chu looked suspicious.
Xiao Mubai smiled and said nothing. After a while, Han Hong fetched a package and ran back in a hurry. Xiao Mubai picked up the package and handed it to Xia Chu: "Let's change it together."
Han Hong froze next to him, and Xia Chu saw him trembling. He opened it more curiously and saw that it was actually a pink dress...
"What are you doing?" Xia Chu finally understood why Han Hong's face turned pale.
"Don't you want to see Lan Yuying?" Xiao Mubai's eyes showed a hint of cunning.
"I think so, but..." Xia Chu nodded, then paused again.
"I'm going to Kunning Palace to meet my mother. I can't bring an attendant with me, let alone multiple eunuchs all of a sudden. It's safest for you to pretend to be a maid." Xiao Mubai said with a serious face.
…
Han Hong glanced at Xia Chu secretly, saw that he was still thinking seriously, stepped back, and silently retreated.
After exiting the door, Han Hong hurriedly went to find Han Sa and told him the news: "The prince is fooling the young master into dressing up as a maid!"
After hearing this, Han Sa's head started buzzing, and he rushed out of the door and ran towards their courtyard.
When the two of them arrived, Xia Chu's door was already closed. Han Sa saw Xiao Mubai still sitting in his room, gritted his teeth and walked in.
Xia Chu had taken good care of him in the past, so he couldn't let the prince cause trouble like this.
He didn't say anything after he entered, but Xiao Mubai was the first to say: "I will go to the palace to thank you. You go and prepare a carriage."
"Yes." Han Sa responded instinctively, then thought that he had other purposes for coming, and then said: "No..."
"Huh?" Xiao Mubai glanced at him coolly.
Han Sa swallowed the words in her mouth, her face froze, her heart trembled, and she continued to say to him: "Your Majesty, if the Marquis knows that you have abused the young master so badly, then..."
Before he finished speaking, a slightly complaining female voice sounded outside the room: "Hey, this skirt is really tight."
Han Sa blinked twice at Xiao Mubai's face. After slowly turning around, her mouth opened in shock. She turned to look at Xiao Mubai, who was smiling, and then at Xia Chu, who had changed into women's clothes. He leaned towards Xiao Mubai and asked in a low voice: "My lord, when did you take Princess Su Ran into your residence?"
Xiao Mubai looked stunned, but Xia Chu burst out laughing after hearing his words.
Seeing that she had heard it, Han Sa hurried over and bowed: "I have met Princess Su Ran."
Xia Chu smiled even more happily, holding her waist and almost couldn't stand up straight.
Han Hong recovered from the shock, pulled Han Sa away who was still saluting, and cursed at him: "Are you out of your mind? This is the young master."
Han Sa's eyes widened and his pupils suddenly narrowed.
Han Hong didn't follow him to the Liang Kingdom, so he naturally didn't know the appearance of Princess Su Ran, but he had clearly seen it, and it was exactly the same as what he saw in front of him. Could it be...
Han Sa suddenly realized it and walked around Xia Chu twice. After looking up and down carefully, he stuttered and said: "It turns out that you are pretending to be Princess Su Ran. I asked you why she disappeared after entering the palace." .”
Xia Chu nodded with a smile, and Han Safan suddenly realized: "No wonder you competed with Princess Hu in horse riding and archery that time. After you came back, you became very skilled in handling me. At that time, I thought, why does this face look so familiar..."
Xia Chu looked startled: "I was negligent."
Han Sa clicked her tongue: "Master, did you stab your throat with a silver needle and change your vocal cords again? Don't tell me, it's really like that."
The night when Xia Chu came back from the palace, she once imitated Xiao Mubai's voice. Even he was fooled at that time. He touched her breast with emotion: "Master, are you stuffing this with steamed buns?"
Hearing a 'click', Han Sa held his dislocated arm and turned to look at Xiao Mubai with a surprised look on his face. His face was full of confusion, and he asked with a cry: "My lord, what are you doing?"
Han Hong was also shocked. He had witnessed Xiao Mubai's lightning-fast attack with his own eyes.
That attack was as cruel as the hatred of seizing his wife...
Xiao Mubai's already cold face became even darker now. He twitched the corner of his mouth and snorted coldly at Han Sa: "I just broke your arm, which is considered light."
Han Sa's face was full of grievance, and he didn't understand why he suddenly became so angry.
Xia Chu coughed slightly with an embarrassed look on his face, and patted Han Sa's other intact shoulder: "What, I'm a woman..."
