Mrs. Lu read these words over and over in her heart until she fell into a dream.
But the dream was not peaceful either.
A person who looks like a female ghost is chasing her...
He also told her that he would be reincarnated in her belly and become her child to avenge his past life!
"No...it's none of my business, it's none of my business!"
Ms. Lu screamed in surprise, suddenly opened her eyes, and gasped.
The lights in the room have been turned off, and only a faint light from the corridor still shines through the window, making it barely visible.
Lu looked at the top of the bed with wide eyes in shock. After a moment, she subconsciously turned her head to look to her side.
Caught off guard, her eyes met a pair of eyes immersed in darkness, which seemed to have been watching her quietly!
"ah!"
Frightened, Mrs. Lu screamed, sat up with her hands on her hands, and shrank to the corner of the bed.
"Don't... don't kill me!"
Xia Han stood up slowly and looked at her with amusement.
"Yao'er, what's wrong with you-"
Hearing his voice, Lu was brought back to reality, but the fear in her heart remained unabated.
Her husband has been watching her?!
I don’t know how long I watched it!
What exactly did he find?
How will he treat himself?
And that look... scared her beyond description. Just thinking about it made her want to scream.
The physical discomfort and mental breakdown made Ms. Lu unable to even bother to hide anything. She held her head tightly with trembling hands, not daring to look at her husband in the darkness.
A hint of disgust flashed in Xia Han's eyes.
Those raised by wealthy people are really useless.
Sure enough, except for her eyes, which are somewhat similar to hers, the rest of them are nothing compared to hers.
This vulnerable character alone makes people not want to take another look at him.
But who made her still have his child in her belly...
Xia Han suppressed the impatience in his heart and raised his hand to touch Lu's forehead.
"Yao'er, you're having a nightmare. You've been talking some strange things in your sleep. I couldn't feel relieved, so I stayed by your side. You seem to have a fever, so I'll ask a doctor to come and take a look at you."
Mrs. Lu listened blankly, not even daring to react at all.
The maid who was guarding the outer room came in and held the lamp.
Seeing the maid and the doctor coming in and out, Xiao Qi, who was hiding behind the roof in the dark, frowned in confusion.
The second young lady of the Xia family was talking in her sleep and yelling. Could it be that she was frightened and went crazy?
He would have to have someone tell Young Master and Miss Xu about this later.
Thinking about this in his mind, Xiao Qi looked around inch by inch.
The lights were on again all around the courtyard, which made his errand a little more convenient.
The night passed quickly.
Because the weather was gloomy and there was no sunrise, the sky finally lit up half an hour later than usual.
Behind Yong'an Lane in the south of the city, in an inconspicuous inn that looked a bit older, a middle-aged man was still sound asleep in the guest room.
A gust of wind blew open the windows that had been in disrepair for a long time. With the sound of "creeping", the cold wind of early autumn poured into the room, waking up the man from his sleep.
"What a shabby inn. Damn it, you still have the nerve to urge me to pay for the room every day. It's better to sleep in a shabby temple..."
The man stood up cursing, wrapped his white washed monk's robe tightly around his body, took off his shoes and went to close the window.
However, as soon as his hands touched the window lattice, he suddenly saw a hand from nowhere touching the edge of the window.
"Oh!"
The man was so frightened that his hands trembled and he backed away.
A black figure supported his body with his hands and rolled neatly into the room.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" The man looked at the visitor in surprise.
He wants money but no money, he wants sex but no sex, what does the other party want?!
"He Daochang, our young master wants to see you."
The man's expression condensed.
Does the other party know his last name?
But when he first came to the capital, he couldn't get through any connections. How could anyone recognize who he was?
"Your young master is——"
Before he could ask a word, the other party grabbed one of his arms and jumped out of the window.
He barely landed on the ground and was still in shock. This time he only had time to say the word "you" before he was quickly stuffed into a carriage again.
The carriage moved quickly, taking him in an unknown direction without giving him a chance to react.
...What exactly is going on this early in the morning!
Amid various confusions and shocks, he traveled from the south to the west of the city, and finally saw a person in a pavilion in a bamboo forest.
A young man wearing a pale brocade robe stood in the pavilion with his hands behind his hands, and his handsome features showed a sense of innate desolation.
"Wu...Wu Shisun?!"
After the man surnamed He was surprised for a moment, he ran into the pavilion with eyes full of surprise and bowed respectfully to the young man.
He couldn't guarantee it for others, but if it was this person, then he would be safe.
The Wu family couldn't afford to argue with him as a little gangster. They really disliked him and crushed him to death with just a few fingers when they were in Ningyang. How could he still have the life to come to the capital!
but……
Is there anything that would allow this dignified King of Dingnan to meet him in person?
"I came to you today to show you a clear path to see if you want to leave." Wu Chao said, with no fluctuations in his tone.
He Jin's eyes lit up and he quickly raised his hand and said: "Wu Shisun, please speak!"
He came to the capital because he heard that His Majesty had built the Xuanqing Palace and was looking for scholars from all over the world, so he came to take a chance. But who knew that it was not just about ability, but also required recommendation from a noble person - he was penniless.
, there was no way out, so I had to sleep in the inn day after day.
Although I was unwilling to give up, I had no other choice. I had been delaying paying for the hotel for several days, and I was planning to sneak away in the past two days while the waiter in the inn was not prepared.
But yesterday, when the hexagram was revealed, I could faintly see signs that I was about to change my fortune in the past few days——
As soon as I opened my eyes today, a noble person really came to my door!
Wu Chao looked at him and said: "When Taoist Master He wanted to join me in Prince Dingnan's palace, I saw that Taoist Master He did have some abilities."
It's just that this ability is really not that eye-catching. It's not even close to Mr. Fang who Miss Xu gave him as a gift.
More importantly, this person has bad character and evil intentions.
Therefore, the Wu family did not agree to keep him.
"Wu Shisun was so complimentary..." He Jin said modestly, guessing the young man's purpose.
Fortunately, the other party's words were clear and did not keep him guessing for a long time.
"I know that you came to Beijing this time to enter the Xuanqing Palace and serve in front of His Majesty. I can help you achieve this wish."
As for the other party’s evil intentions——
He was sent to the palace anyway, so what does it have to do with him whether his intentions were correct or not?
"Wu Shisun is willing to come forward to introduce Pindao?!" He Jin was overjoyed.
Wu Chao gave him a cool look.
What are you daydreaming about?
If he really wanted to introduce someone, why would he choose someone who couldn't do anything? After all, he was a face-saving person.
Seeing that he was overthinking, He Jin smiled coquettishly, rubbing his hands nervously and expectantly, waiting for the young man to continue.
