Chapter 79

After leaving the inn behind his childe, dark Wei whispered, "no, if childe will go to another inn later."

He knew that the childe wanted to avoid suspicion, but one after another, he pretended not to know Miss Xu. Should there be no rumors in this small town?

"No need."

The young man's tone is not heavy, but he has nothing to say.

He didn't want to bring any trouble that could have been avoided because of a chance. He has always acted like this.

"Then I'll go to the nearby town again?" the dark guard hesitated.

There are four of them. Xiao Qi is looking at the corpse in the forest. The other two are secretly sent by the childe to guard Miss Xu. At present, he is the only one around the childe. If it is not necessary, he can't and dare not leave the childe easily.

"Don't be so troublesome. The gate will open in two hours."

Wu Tsui strode to the pavilion in front for pedestrians to rest, leaned against the pavilion fence, hugged his arms and closed his eyes.

The dark guard sighed in his heart that the childe was really good to serve, so he silently stood aside and rested against the pavilion column.

About half an hour later, Wu TSUO, who was sleepless, opened his eyes.

Yu Guang caught a glimpse of the food box put on the stone table by the dark guard. The boy suddenly felt some hunger in his stomach.

He subconsciously glanced at the dark guard.

Would it be dignified to be seen?

Fortunately, the other party leaned there and seemed to be asleep.

Wu Tsui hesitated for a moment, got up, went to the stone table and opened the food box.

It wasn't very bright around, and I couldn't see clearly what snacks were in the food box. The boy picked up chopsticks and sent them to the entrance at will, and then one by one.

Maybe it's because I'm hungry. It tastes surprisingly good.

Try to make your breathing sound even enough and quietly narrow your eyes into a slit. The dark guard secretly looks at the picture of his childe sitting there eating snacks. He can't help feeling complicated - childe eats and nods contentedly at the snacks alone. What's the matter?

Is it that delicious?

Wu Tsung chewed and looked back with some observation.

Somehow I always felt that someone was peeping at him——

Dark Wei quickly closed his eyes and dared not move even if there was a mosquito bite on his face.

Is it easy for him to eat in peace of mind?

Compared with Xiao Qi who stayed in the forest, I don't know who is more difficult.

After finishing all the things in the food box, Wu Tsui returned to his original position and sat down.

However, mosquitoes are disturbing people everywhere. Even with the help of dark guards pretending to be awakened, Wu Tsui still can't sleep for a while.

By dawn the next day, a handsome young man had been bitten with red spots on his face and hands.

"Young master, Miss Xu has got up and left."

A dark guard outside Xu Mingyi's Inn came to report last night.

"Miss Xu asked her subordinates to send a message to the childe. She said it was still early, so she wouldn't disturb the childe to have a rest. She would officially thank the childe in the future."

But why does his son look like sleeping on the street?

Wu Tsui glanced at the clean face of the messenger dark Wei.

Isn't it possible that Xu Mingyi gave each of them a small porcelain bottle to repel mosquitoes and insects?

Suddenly I felt that some unbalanced teenagers turned over and got on the horse.

"Go back to town."

"Yes."

The horse's hooves raised dust and smoke, and the tall and straight figure of the boy soon disappeared in the thin morning light.

……

Xu Mingyi returned to the town government. After washing and dressing, Cui found him as soon as he stopped eating early.

"Zhaozhao... Did you really rest in Princess Chang's house last night?" Cui asked with a smile on his surface and uneasiness in his heart.

Princess Chang's residence is not an ordinary place. In the end, it is the first person in the capital to raise a face. It depends on Princess Jing Rongchang, the mother of Princess Yufeng.

Princess Jing Rongchang was the only daughter of the first emperor, so much loved by the first emperor that Princess Yufeng was granted the princess by the first emperor as an exception just after she was born.

But less than a month after the edict came down, the former emperor died of illness before he could have a good look at his only granddaughter.

Princess Jing Rongchang was very sad about this. At that time, her son-in-law empathized with a folk woman and was caught and raped in bed. Therefore, her son-in-law was condemned and demoted to common people. Princess Jing Rongchang lived in depression from then on until the news that she was raising her face in the house came out soon.

Princess Yufeng has been influenced by this since she was a child, so she inherits her mother's business.

Your majesty is very helpless about this. He has failed to persuade many times, but he can't bear too much criticism.

Day after day, year after year, Princess Jing Rongchang and her daughter closed the door to concentrate on keeping their faces, and ignored all the rest. Even the imperial historians were too lazy to do more impeachment.

Cui didn't sleep all night last night when he thought of the singing of Princess Chang's house.

Although Zhaozhao promised her that she would not keep her face, but she is not deep in the world and lack of concentration. What if she can't stand the temptation of those flirtatious men?

"Mother, actually I didn't stay in Princess Chang's house last night." Xu Mingyi said.

Cui Shi was stunned.

Before he could relax, he became more and more worried because of a guess in his mind - if he didn't stay in Princess Chang's house, it would be a night outside!

Is it difficult to rest in the waiter's house with Princess Yufeng?!

Seeing the tension in his mother's eyes, Xu Mingyi quickly explained: "I took ah Zhu out of the city last night and found Qi Lin's body outside the city."

“……”

Cui's mood swam back and forth between relaxation and horror.

"Qi Lin's body?!"

Xu Mingyi nodded lightly.

"Mother can now send a letter to Yongan Bo's house and ask Bo's house to send someone to recognize the body outside the city."

She informed Cui of the location of the forest.

Cui pressed down and nodded in surprise.

In the middle of the night, Zhaozhao didn't know where to get the clue, but ran out of the city and found a body?

Then he stayed outside the city all night and went home early in the morning for breakfast. At this time, he sat here and talked about it with her as if he were idle?

God, how could she have such an unusual daughter!

A quarter of an hour later, Cui left Xiyuan, and Xu Mingyi turned to enter the inner room.

Ah Kui came out of the room with some books that Xu Mingyi had read.

"Wait."

"Do you have anything to tell your maid?" ah Kui stopped puzzled.

Xu Mingyi walked up to her and pulled out an invitation card between the books.

A Kui glanced and said, "girl, this is the birthday invitation sent by the second girl of the Zhan family. The birthday gift will be sent later."

But the girl was always reluctant to pay attention to the second girl, and it was impossible for the other girl to go to the birthday party.

At most, they were asked to prepare a birthday gift, which should be a face for each other, as in previous years.

Xu Mingyi gently closed the invitation.

"You don't have to send it. I'll take it with me when I go to the dinner in the evening."

She is also going to Zhan's house to confirm one thing.

Sooner rather than later, let's go tonight.
