Even more revealing, Mrs. Qiao was always waiting outside the house.
When scolding came from the room, the maid was very uneasy: "Madam..."
Mrs. Qiao smiled slightly: "Ask someone to prepare hot water. The prince needs to take a bath before going to bed."
Her calmness calmed the maids' emotions, and they went about their chores as usual.
After a long time, there was finally a sound at the door. Mrs. Qiao raised her eyes and looked over. It was Mr. Chu Jiu who came out.
He looked calm and said softly: "Father is tired, mother, go and serve!"
Mrs. Qiao took the hint and straightened his clothes: "It's getting late, so you should go back and rest quickly. If you have anything to do, it's not too late to do it tomorrow."
"Yes." Master Chu Jiu saluted and left with his people.
Mrs. Qiao looked at his back with a smile on her face.
After returning from the garden, the prince chose to come here, and she knew that their mother and son had won. For so many years, she had been maids and concubines, inviting favors and competing for favors. Even if she was ranked first in the prince's house, her heart was still uncertain. To this day, to this day,
Her restless heart could finally be put into her stomach.
"Madam, the water is ready." The maid came to report.
Mrs. Qiao put away her smile and went in still respectfully.
…
"Uh-huh! Uh-huh!" The fishing net was unloaded from the horse, and the person wrapped in it kept twisting.
Xu Yin saw it funny and ordered his subordinates: "Let him out!"
"Yes." Wei Jun took out his dagger, cut him cleanly, and released the man.
As soon as Qingxuan was free, he yelled: "You powerful people know how to bully the weak. If you have the ability to fight with real swords and guns, what kind of ability is it to plot against people behind their backs?"
He took a breath after scolding, but saw that everyone in the Xu family was indifferent. The maids moved chairs and served tea, serving Miss Xu San diligently, and the subordinates were doing their own things.
This made Qingxuan not know what to say: "You..."
Is there something wrong with this family's brain? It doesn't matter if Miss Xu San is not angry, but her subordinates don't care when their master is scolded?
Wei Jun seemed to know what he was thinking, and while asking someone to bring him some ginger soup, he said, "It's okay. You can vent your anger by scolding her a few more times. Our third lady is used to being scolded."
Qingxuan's jaw almost dropped: "You..."
"Besides, what you said is also true!" Wei Jun patted him considerately, "Miss Third just likes to bully the weak and is always scheming. We all know that."
"..."
The ginger soup was served over there. Wei Jun ignored him and turned around and shouted: "Come on, come on, come and drink the ginger soup. Don't get cold after soaking in the water for so long in the middle of the night."
So a group of people gathered in front of the big pot to drink soup, and someone even handed a bowl to Qingxuan: "You also have a bowl to drive away the cold."
Qingxuan was confused as he held the bowl of ginger soup.
Who am I, where am I, what am I going to do?
After drinking the ginger soup, Xu Yin started to work.
"Where's Mrs. Xiang?"
"Seeing that she couldn't escape, she committed suicide."
Xu Yin was not surprised at all: "Give the body to the palace, and we will take care of the rest."
"yes."
"Are those bandit leaders still there?"
"Locked up in the palace prison."
"Wei Jun, go back and take a look and bring back the ones you can use."
"knew."
After saying the important things, Xu Yin clapped his hands: "Okay, hurry back and take a shower and change clothes, don't catch a cold. It's time to watch the night tonight, and it's time to rest. Pack your luggage tomorrow morning and prepare to return."
"yes."
Seeing her get up and go back to the house, and her subordinates dispersed, Qingxuan quickly said: "Hey! Where's me?"
Xu Yin glanced at him: "You have hands and feet, do you still need someone to serve you?"
"Of course not... No! If you arrest me, you can't just ignore me, right?"
Xu Yin touched his chin: "That's right, then you should follow Wei Jun. You two are about the same height, so his clothes should be able to fit in."
Wei Jun nodded: "I brought some extra clothes, so I'll put them on first. Sleep with us in the same bunk bed tonight. It's a bit crowded, so we'll just spend one night!"
Xu Yin nodded happily and took Xiao Sang back.
She was very sleepy after being busy until midnight. She quickly took a bath and went to bed. She had to rush on her way next!
Qingxuan was pulled back by Wei Jun in such a daze.
Knowing that they had something to do tonight, hot water had been prepared in the kitchen. There was no need to shy away from the men in the room, everyone stripped naked and splashed and scrubbed themselves.
When Qingxuan came to his senses, he had already changed into Wei Jun's clothes and was lying dry on the bunk.
I have to say, it is so comfortable to take a hot shower after working in the middle of the night!
Qingxuan rolled around on the bed twice, then suddenly realized something was wrong and sat up suddenly.
"Don't move around, there's air leakage!" Wei Jun, who was about to fall asleep next to him, complained incoherently and stuffed himself with a quilt.
He still has his mind on making sure the leaks are not leaked! When Qingxuan regained his consciousness, he shook his head and said, "Get up!"
"What are you doing? Is there something that we can't talk about tomorrow? I'm so sleepy." Since the call to Hexing, Wei Jun has been pretending to be a thief and a spy, and he hasn't rested for a day.
resentment.
Qingxuan felt sorry intuitively, but then he realized something was wrong, stiffened his back, and said in a rough voice: "What day tomorrow? You understand, you captured me!"
Wei Jun had to stand up: "So?"
"So, aren't you afraid of me running away in the middle of the night?"
Wei Jun blinked: "If you want to run, just run!"
Qingxuan also blinked and stared at him with wide eyes.
The glare between the two ended with Wei Jun yawning: "Go to sleep first! You have to eat and sleep enough even if you are fighting and killing!"
His indifferent look left Qingxuan speechless and kept him from sleeping: "Let's make it clear first!"
Wei Jun had no idea: "Okay, okay, okay, what do you want to say?"
Qingxuan was speechless again. Seeing that Wei Jun was impatient, he hurriedly said: "What do you mean by running away? Also, if we just sleep together like this, aren't you afraid that I will kill you all in the middle of the night?"
"Then can you?" Wei Jun asked back.
"..."
Wei Jun said: "It's you who owe our third lady, not our third lady who owes you. Who can you kill if you don't have anything to do? You have nothing to do!"
That makes sense! But shouldn't he be the one to say this? Shouldn't you powerful people be careful and vigilant for fear of something going wrong? Isn't it too rude to just let an outsider sleep in the house like this?
Ten thousand words rolled through Qingxuan's throat, and finally he only said one sentence: "Then what if I really leave?"
"Then you can go! My feet will grow on your legs. Whether or not the debt is repaid is ultimately up to you."
After finishing speaking, Wei Jun yawned and lay back: "Okay, you can do whatever you want, don't bother me!"
Qingxuan was stunned for a long time and asked: "Then I want to stay, will you take care of the food?"
"Yeah." Wei Jun said vaguely with his eyes closed, "Isn't it just a matter of extra pairs of chopsticks..."
When he said the last word, he fell asleep and snored slightly.
Qingxuan thought for a while and lay back silently.
Anyway, I have to take care of food and drink, so it seems okay to stay for now? Anyway, I can leave anytime I want...
