Awang was holding a lantern in front, and Xuan Bao was followed by his second brother and his third brother. Dong Xue and Xia Yu followed closely behind them, and the other boys fell behind.
"Xuanbao, is there anything else we don't know?" Xiao Keren couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Kexiao's expression suddenly became serious: "If you have anything, just tell us and tell us whatever you need us to do. Don't take risks, let alone put yourself in danger."
He raised his left and right hands to hold the arms of his second and third brothers. Xuan Bao naughtily lifted his feet off the ground and hung on the two brothers' hands like a monkey. The little baby giggled.
Xiao Keren chuckled and said, "What we talked about was in vain. Look at her, she was just joking and didn't listen at all."
"I hope she can always be so happy." Xiao Kexiao looked at Xuan Bao's smile and smiled.
"Yes, I hope she will always be so happy."
Xuan Bao burst into laughter and lowered his head, but tears flashed in his eyes. The two brothers really loved her from the bottom of their hearts. Well, it's good to be home.
Thinking of this, the little doll's eyes became more determined. She must go all out to protect this home, including every member of her family.
After seeing off his second and third brothers, Xuan Bao returned to Lingyun Garden and after washing, he lay down on the couch with his short legs crossed and swaying thoughtfully.
"County Master, are you busy tonight?" Xia Yu squeezed to Xuan Bao's side and asked in a low voice.
Although Dongxue and the others did not come forward, they all listened with open ears.
"Sleep peacefully tonight." Xuan Bao said calmly.
"You're not planning to abandon us and sneak out, are you?" Xia Yu finished her words, and Dong Xue nodded in agreement beside her.
Xuan Bao chuckled: "Do I mean nothing if I just say this? I have a good rest tonight, and you can sleep peacefully. When I think about Fang Rongru's life being worse than death, I am in a good mood and can have sweet dreams."
"County Lord." Qiuyue started to speak but stopped.
"What's the matter? Tell me." Xuan Bao sat up, and unknowingly pressure burst out from the little baby.
Qiuyue stepped forward and reported: "Miss Sixth quietly went to Xikuoyuan just now."
"How did you know?" Xuan Bao asked casually.
"She can set up an spy in Lingyun Garden, and we can also set up an spy in Yicai Garden." Qiuyue lowered her head, "This slave has made his own decision, and asked the county chief to punish him."
"What crime are you punishing? Well done." Xuan Bao was overjoyed, "You have made great progress, very good, very good."
Seeing that Xuan Bao really didn't mean to blame herself, Qiu Yue breathed a sigh of relief: "County Master, Ju'er is my spy."
"Oh, what a skill, you instigated Xiao Mingzhu's personal maid to rebel." Xuan Bao was really surprised.
Qiuyue said angrily: "It's not that my servant is good, it's that she treats the people around her too harshly. Ju'er said that she doesn't ask for anything else but that the county master can save her, Lan'er and Mei'er's lives."
"It's not that difficult." Xuan Bao took out the Dao Communication Note from his pocket and handed it to Qiu Yue, "Take it to Ju'er. When life and death are at stake, hold it with both hands and call 'Xuan Bao'."
"Thank you, County Master. With this, Ju'er and the others will feel at ease." Qiuyue knelt down and took it with both hands.
Xuan Bao continued to ask: "What did Ju'er say?"
"Xiao Mingzhu went there in the name of visiting the Second Madam, but she only went in for a moment and came out. Instead, she chatted with the Second Master alone for a long time in the west courtyard hall."
After listening to Qiu Yue's words, Xuan Bao knew very well that Xiao Mingzhu was forced to panic because she was afraid that her elder brother would no longer be reliable in her heart.
I wonder what role the second wife played in the life before Xiao Mingzhu? She secretly held Fang Rongru's thigh at first, and now she is directly conspiring with Xiao Liao.
No matter how you look at the current situation, Dafang has the advantage, and Xuanbao is full of confidence. Xiao Mingzhu predicted it, but she didn't understand that everything in the world is not static, and one move can affect the whole body.
In Xiao Mingzhu's words, she was a pitiful person in her last life. A smile appeared on Xuanbao's lips. She was obviously very happy in this life. Perhaps it was God's compensation for her.
"Yes, I know." Xuan Bao told Qiu Yue, "Let Ju'er continue to stare."
After pondering for a long time, Xuan Bao waved to Qiu Yue, motioning for her to come closer.
Qiu Yue walked over with a puzzled expression, Xuan Bao put her ear next to her ear and said, "I want to find a way to insert ear wires around the young masters."
What did the county chief want to do? Qiuyue was so frightened that she fell to the ground.
"Look at your potential." Xuan Bao smiled and reached out to Qiu Yue to pull her up, then whispered, "I am here to protect them."
Qiuyue showed a look of sudden realization, and she nodded repeatedly. The county chief protected her, even the few of them, let alone her own relatives.
After sending Xiao Mingzhu away, Xiao Liao sat alone in the hall for a long time. What she said was so shocking that he couldn't convince himself even after spending a long time.
It was late at night, and Xiao Liao got up and went straight to his study.
Xuan Bao had a good night's sleep. When she woke up, she rubbed her eyes and looked at the top of the bed. After a while, the little doll started to giggle alone.
Hearing the laughter, Qiuyue, who had been waiting outside for a long time, opened the bed curtain and turned around and shouted: "The county master is awake."
"I just woke up." Xuan Bao sat up with Qiu Yue's help, "It seems there is something going on outside, that's why you can't wait for me to wake up."
"At dawn, the second wife sent people out of the city, and those who went there haven't come back yet." Qiuyue reported while waiting for Xuanbao to change clothes, "There was news from the West Cross Courtyard that the second lady was tossing all night, and she didn't know how many things she dropped.
He also let out painful screams from time to time, which made people panic."
Xuan Bao understood as soon as he heard that those who left the city must go to Tianlong Temple, but they would be disappointed in the end. Master Yuan Wu didn't exist in the first place.
Thinking about it, if Xiao Liao and Fang Rongru knew the truth, Xuan Bao would feel better.
"County Lord, County Lord, are you awake?" Chunhua's voice came from outside.
Huh? Chunhua has always been steady. Something big happened to make her so impatient.
Xuan Bao was just changing clothes, washing up, and combing his hair. The little doll stood up and walked to the bedroom door: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"County Lord, the second prince will personally come to take you into the palace."
"Brother Shun is here." Xuan Bao suddenly smiled and said, "Why don't you invite him in quickly?"
"Here we come." Chunhua pointed behind her.
Xuan Bao looked from a distance and saw his mother, Princess Rouping, taking Dongfang Shun into the gate of Lingyun Garden.
"Brother Shun!" Xuanbao trotted forward to greet him.
"Xuan Bao!" Dongfang Shun happily left Princess Rouping behind and ran towards the little baby.
"Haha——!" The two children hugged each other, and their loud laughter made people feel happy.
Xuan Bao finally stopped laughing and asked, "Brother Shun, why didn't you say anything if you were coming?"
Dongfang Shun stood up straight and cleared his throat: "This prince is here to summon the Lord of Baoning County to the palace according to the order."
"Baoning County Lord? I don't know you." Xuan Bao blurted out.
"Xuanbao." Princess Rouping held back her smile and asked, "Don't you know Princess Baoning?"
