"Madam, let me help you change your clothes and wash up." Xiaowan said and helped Shang Yuxuan get off the bed. The courtyard where Shang Yuxuan lived could be said to be the shabbiest in the entire Prince Han Mansion. There was not even an outside room.
.
Although she used to be Shang Yuxuan's personal maid, now she takes care of Shang Yuxuan privately.
And such a big thing happened yesterday. The prince just stayed in Tianxiang Tower for a while and then left. Even when the wife was taken to the Yamen, the prince didn't care. She really didn't know what the prince was thinking.
After washing up, I realized that the breakfast was already cold and I definitely couldn't eat it anymore. I asked Shang Yuxuan to wait for the small bowl, then picked up the food on the table and left.
Shang Yuxuan sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at her veiled face. Ever since she was caught by Qi Yeyang, she had not used any medicine to treat her face for quite some time, and she had to take medicine to treat her throat right away.
, stopping for this period of time, I don’t know if it will affect the effect.
Zhu Youchen, where have you been?
Shang Yuxuan sighed helplessly, it was okay to be rude at ordinary times, but now she couldn't find him even if she tried to look for him.
Xiaowan quickly came over with the food, "Madam, this is specially prepared for you by the kitchen. Aunt Fang is good for you and the young prince."
Shang Yuxuan thanked him and sat down to eat something.
When Xiaowan saw that Yuxuan was in a low mood, he couldn't help but worry, "Madam, are you thinking about the prince?"
Shang Yuxuan was stunned for a moment and almost choked. She took a sip of soup before she recovered. She gestured angrily with her beautiful eyes, "Little girl, what are you talking about? Why do I miss him?"
"Madam, actually the prince..."
"Xiao Wan, can you go out and buy some medicine for me?" Before Xiao Wan finished speaking, Shang Yuxuan stopped her and said with gestures.
"Medicine?" Xiao Wan looked at Shang Yuxuan doubtfully, and saw Shang Yuxuan walking to the table, picking up a pen and paper and writing a list, and handed it to her, "You follow this prescription and get it."
That’s it.”
"Madam, what's the recipe for this?"
"It's for throat treatment." Shang Yuxuan smiled, "Some medicines are difficult to buy. I might bother you to inquire more."
"Madam!" Xiaowan exclaimed in surprise when he heard this, "Are you saying your throat can be cured? That's great, that's great. I'll go right away, slave."
Xiao Wan said and ran out. Shang Yuxuan hurriedly pulled her and handed her a banknote. You always need money to buy medicine.
At first she didn't want the small bowl, but when she saw it, Yuxuan gestured and said, "Some medicines may cost hundreds of taels of silver, so take it."
Xiaowan really didn't have that much money on him, so he accepted it. After accepting it, he immediately ran out of the house.
Seeing her like this, Shang Yuxuan felt warm in her heart. She didn't know if she could buy it. She should have gone by herself, but for the sake of the baby in her belly, she still didn't go out.
Throughout the afternoon, Shang Yuxuan stayed in her room, waiting for the small bowl and the news from Qi Yeyang.
Today was the fourth day, and she wanted to know how Qi Yeyang would contact her.
The reason why she and Qi Yeyang put forward this condition in the first place was that in this way, Wei Juncan would at least be in the Beimu Kingdom. If she found Zhu Youchen and thought of a way out of trouble, Wei Juncan could be killed immediately.
Jun Can was rescued.
However, a whole afternoon passed, and except for the occasional sound of wind, there was no sound in the small courtyard where she was.
Is it possible that Qi Yeyang really didn't keep his word? Isn't he afraid that she would fight to the death?
Just as she was thinking this, there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard, and Shang Yuxuan's vigilance immediately rose. She stood up and looked outside the courtyard, but what she saw was a small bowl, which made her feel a little disappointed.
Xiaowan ran around all afternoon and finally found all the medicines Shang Yuxuan wanted. When he got the medicines back, he didn't know how to boil them, so he had to carry them all to Shang Yuxuan's room, and also took the stove for boiling the medicines.
Brought to you.
"Madam, how should I prepare this medicine? Tell me, and I will prepare it now." Xiaowan put all the medicine on the table and looked at Shang Yuxuan and asked.
Shang Yuxuan stepped forward, checked it over, and found that there was indeed a lot of it. She praised the small bowl with a few words of appreciation, and then told the small bowl how to cook it.
After Xiaowan listened, he went down to prepare water and boil the medicine.
Shang Yuxuan looked at the darkening sky and frowned slightly. At this moment, she saw a unique herb among the pile of herbs.
She picked it up and took a look at it doubtfully, but she didn't expect it to be hollow. She looked at the small bowl warily and saw that the small bowl did not pay attention to herself, so she immediately broke open the herb.
Sure enough... there was a note inside.
The time and place of the meeting were written in it. The intention was obviously that Yuxuan should go out to meet Wei Juncan. But at this time, not to mention that she was pregnant, even if she went out of the house, there was no guarantee that she would be admired.
Yu Han discovered.
Qi Yeyang is so upright and uses this method to convey news to her. Is it because he is too courageous, is he arrogant, or is he doing it on purpose?
Seeing that the small bowl was coming in, Shang Yuxuan immediately hid the note in the space bracelet and sat aside as if nothing had happened.
Go out? Or not go out?
Qi Yeyang, a cunning fox, actually threw this problem back.
Xiaowan cooked all the herbs according to Shang Yuxuan's instructions, and then went to the kitchen to get dinner for Shang Yuxuan. Shang Yuxuan ate, drank the medicine, and was still thinking about whether to go out.
After the small bowls were all put away, Shang Yuxuan stayed alone in the room, watching the time passing by, and finally couldn't help but stand up, but as soon as he opened the door, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a flash of light.
The figure passing by.
She was stunned for a moment, then started to chase him, but the man's Qinggong was so much faster than her Feng Chi that he lost him alive.
Originally I was still hesitating whether to go, but now I'm standing on the street in Mujing, and I don't know who the person just now is, but I'm out of the capital, so I'll go and see him.
Shang Yuxuan thought about it and walked towards the place written by Qi Yeyang. The place mentioned by Qi Yeyang was none other than "Shengye Gambling House".
Although it was strange, Shang Yuxuan still walked over, but before going, she tied her hair into a married young woman's style to prevent others from looking at her strangely.
The "Shengye Gambling House" was bustling with people, buying big, buying small, buying big and leaving, and all kinds of shouts came and went.
Shang Yuxuan stood outside the casino protecting her belly. When she came here, looking at the mixed place, she suddenly didn't want to go in.
Baby, what should mommy do?
Do you want to go in or not?
You (you) see the chaos here, which is absolutely detrimental to your (our) prenatal education.
"This girl..." When Shang Yuxuan was hesitating to go back, a clear young voice suddenly came from behind.
Shang Yuxuan turned around and saw an old acquaintance. In fact, he was not familiar with him, but at least he had dealt with him before.
When the young man saw that it was Shang Yuxuan, he seemed to remember her, and a strange look flashed in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared, "The master asked me to take the girl to see him."
Hearing this, no matter how stupid Shang Yuxuan was, he understood that Qi Yeyang opened the gambling house of Qingqing. If he really opened it, then his current net worth...
Thinking of the possibility of war in the future, Shang Yuxuan couldn't help but shudder. No wonder Qi Yeyang was so well-informed. It turned out that he was running a gambling house part-time.
"Then I'll trouble the second master." Shang Yuxuan remembered that this young man seemed to be named Ruotong, but she didn't expect that such a money-making expert was actually under Qi Yeyang.
Ruotong replied faintly, and led Shang Yuxuan towards a side room outside the gambling house. Shang Yuxuan didn't know that there was another door here.
She glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention to her, and then followed Ruotong in.
The two walked in along a torch-lit corridor. After walking for a while, they saw a room. Ruotong gestured to Yuxuan and said, "Girl, the master is waiting for you inside."
After saying that, he withdrew.
Shang Yuxuan turned back and glanced at Ruotong. To be honest, she still liked how confident and cunning this beautiful young man was when he was making money. Such a submissive look made her uncomfortable.
He took a deep breath, looked away, and walked towards the room where Qi Yeyang was. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Qi Yeyang lying on the soft couch, pouring a drink.
When Qi Yeyang saw Shang Yuxuan coming, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curved, and his eyebrows were raised slightly, with a hint of evil, "Yu'er, this prince has been waiting for you for a long time."
Shang Yuxuan frowned and glanced at Qi Yeyang, then looked around and gestured, "Where is Wei Juncan?"
"Come here." Qi Yeyang did not answer, but waved to Shang Yuxuan.
Shang Yuxuan stood there, motionless, just staring at him.
Seeing this, Qi Yeyang was not embarrassed at all. He put down his hand, picked up the wine glass and started drinking again. He didn't mind letting Mu Yuhan discover that Shang Yuxuan was missing.
Shang Yuxuan knew that she couldn't stay outside for too long, so she gritted her teeth. She was a woman who was too lazy to argue with this villain. She walked towards Qi Yeyang and slapped the table, causing the wine on the table to spill out.
.
Qi Yeyang looked up at her, still with that evil smile on his lips, "Yu'er, it seems you are a little impatient today."
Shang Yuxuan closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and sat next to Qi Yeyang. She wanted to know what this man wanted to do.
As soon as he sat down, he still gestured with the same sentence, "Where is Wei Juncan?"
"Come, have a drink with me." The angrier Shang Yuxuan became, the better Qi Yeyang's mood seemed to be. He picked up the wine glass and handed it to Shang Yuxuan.
Shang Yuxuan really couldn't stand it anymore. She gritted her teeth, took the wine glass he handed over, and splashed it on his face with a loud bang.
"..." The crystal wine flowed into his cheeks along his long silver hair, looking very coquettish. Qi Yeyang looked at Shang Yuxuan, and the smile in his eyes gradually dissipated.
Shang Yuxuan was startled by the coldness in his eyes, but she did not retreat at all.
He just looked at Shang Yuxuan indifferently, picked up the wine glass again, poured another glass of wine, and started drinking from it without even cleaning the wine stains on his body.
After the surprise in his heart dissipated, Shang Yuxuan felt that Qi Yeyang's behavior was a bit strange.
For some reason, she felt that he was in a bad mood, and she should have been gloating about his misfortune, but when she saw him like this, she foolishly wanted to comfort him.
Shang Yuxuan suddenly hit herself in her mind. What was she thinking? Even if she was overflowing with sympathy, there was no need to give it to such a man.
Qi Yeyang drank one glass after another. The bottles of wine on the table were all empty. Shang Yuxuan was watching from the side. For some reason, this scene made her feel familiar, as if it had really happened before.
.
Shaking her head, she didn't have time to watch him drink here now. If she didn't go back and was discovered by Mu Yuhan, there might be some gap between them.
Shang Yuxuan knew that there was no chance of meeting Wei Juncan today, so she stood up and wanted to leave, but she never thought that as soon as she turned around, someone grabbed her wrist.
"Don't go."
"..." Qi Yeyang's voice had a hint of pleading, and Shang Yuxuan couldn't help but froze on the spot. She turned around and looked at him, and saw that he lowered his eyes and let his silver hair fall on his chest.
The wine stains had dried up, leaving a trace on the silver brocade robe.
Shang Yuxuan withdrew her gaze. This man was bad to the core. He arrested Wei Juncan and threatened her. He also poisoned her and asked her to poison Mu Yuhan. What's so pitiful about him.
Shang Yuxuan wanted to leave, but Qi Yeyang's grip on her wrist was unusually strong. As she struggled, a bone-chilling pain shot through her.
Shang Yuxuan stretched out her hand and pried off his fingers that were holding her wrist one by one. But as soon as he pried it off, he tightened his grip again.
He seemed to be drunk, with his eyes and head lowered all the time, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.
Shang Yuxuan closed her eyes and started to break off his fingers again. If possible, she would have wanted to chop him directly with a knife.
"Xuan'er, don't leave..."
"..." This sentence was like being suddenly struck by lightning. Shang Yuxuan froze in place for an instant. He... what was he saying just now?
"Xuan'er..." Qi Yeyang slowly raised his head, looking at Shang Yuxuan's silver eyes that were a little wet, hazy and fragile.
Shang Yuxuan stood there and forgot to open his hand, and even forgot to react when he pulled her into his arms.
Did Qi Yeyang call her just now?
No, it's impossible.
They didn't know each other before.
As soon as Shang Yuxuan came to her senses, she immediately pushed away Qi Yeyang who was holding her, as if something disgusting had been touched on her body.
With a "bang", a sudden sound rang out in the silent room. Qi Yeyang was pushed to the ground so easily. In Shang Yuxuan's surprise, he actually chuckled.
