Pei Luoxuan looked at the brat who dared to hit him in disbelief, the evil aura in his eyes became stronger, gritting his teeth, he raised his hand wanting to slap him back. The Luoluo shouted in fear. Taking the opportunity when he raised his hand, he pushed him away and ran to the side.
"Damn it!" "You …"
Just as Pei Luoxuan turned around, just as Luoluo was about to reach the door, the door was suddenly pushed open by someone once again, scaring Luoluo out of her wits.
Pei Luoxuan's face did not look good as he looked at the group of guards who suddenly pushed open the door. Raising their eyebrows, he wanted to curse in rage, but then he saw that the brat who was trying to escape a moment ago suddenly turned and ran back, and even ran behind him.
"Please …." Luoluo ran to Pei Luoxuan's back and tightly grabbed onto the clothes on his back, almost begging, "Don't let them take me away!"
Hearing that, the coldness in Pei Luoxuan's eyes gradually disappeared, and turned to look at the petite body behind him with suspicion.
"Oh, it's the Young Master Pei!" The guard in the lead saw that it was Pei Luoxuan, he immediately cupped his fists, and respectfully said: "I was ordered by Duke Huang to search the entire city for a person, so no matter if it was a restaurant or an inn, none of my rooms can be left behind. Sir, please forgive my impetuous actions!"
"It doesn't matter!" Pei Luoxuan smiled faintly and took a step back, indicating that they could freely search him. However, the person who tightly grabbed onto him was always behind him, and he could almost feel the sweat that appeared in his hands when he was grabbing onto his back.
It seems... He couldn't help but wonder just what kind of background this kid had.
Pei Luoxuan sneered and squinted his eyes, he did not look at the guards who were wandering around the room, he turned and looked carefully at the Luoluo hiding behind him, when he saw the ears on her white ears, Pei Luoxuan suddenly laughed lightly, he turned around, and his heart formed a plan.
After they finished searching the room, the leader of the guards looked at the person hiding behind Pei Luoxuan.
"Young Master Pei, is that …?"
"It was a boy who was by my side. He had been sick for the past few days, and his face was covered with red lumps. He hid himself in the background because he did not dare to meet anyone!" Pei Luoxuan explained calmly.
The head guard creased his eyebrows and looked behind him at the corner of the clothes worn by the Luoluo s. Seeing that it was indeed just a young servant's attire, he did not think anymore about it. After all, it was Pei Luoxuan after all, and not anyone else.
"Excuse me!" The guard leader cupped his fists, and when he saw Pei Luoxuan nod his head indifferently, he turned and quickly left.
"Quick, go to the other rooms to look for it. If this restaurant still doesn't have one, then we'll have to go to the edge to look for it!" "The prince has told me that I must find it before sunset!"
Only after seeing the guard slowly disappearing into the distance, did Pei Luoxuan take a step forward, throw off the small hand that Luoluo was still holding on his back, and step forward to close the door.
Originally … So he really was here to look for her …
Luoluo bit her lips and lowered her head. Ming Liehan actually wanted to find her before sunset …
Then how could she escape?
"Who the hell are you?" Seeing that the people outside had left, Pei Luoxuan turned around and looked at Luoluo sternly. The person that the Hidden King's Palace was looking for was not a glorious matter in the end. However, he could not help but feel somewhat curious about her.
"I …." Luoluo suddenly raised her head, only then did she remember that Pei Luoxuan had spoken up for her, and thus did not let anyone from the Duke Palace find her.
"A criminal from the manor?" "Or …?" Thinking back to when he saw her ear holes, Pei Luoxuan suddenly smiled.
"I …." Luoluo pursed her lips, as she looked at Pei Luoxuan with grief: "Anyway, thank you for just now, Young Master Pei!"
"You're calling me Young Master Pei again?" "He was acting as a waiter just a moment ago, but now he can actually sit on equal footing with me?" Pei Luoxuan asked with a probing cold smile.
"I … I …" The Luoluo lowered her head, her two hands moving behind each other, her delicate fingers also unable to escape Pei Luoxuan's eyes.
Pei Luoxuan smirked, walked forward and smiled sinisterly, "Could it be that some important person sneaked out of the Duke's Mansion?"
"No, no!" Luoluo hurriedly lifted her head, only to discover that Pei Luoxuan had actually walked in front of him, and was actually very close to him.
"Is that …?" Pei Luoxuan continued to smile as he looked towards Luoluo's ears. Her ears had holes that only women could hear, and her face looked like a refined lady's. Could it be that he had drank too much just now, and did not manage to see it?
"I am …" I ran out of the palace after stealing some small things! " Luoluo sniffed, and raised his eyes to look into Pei Luoxuan's probing eyes with as little panic as possible: "Who would have thought that the Duke Palaces would not even be willing to let me take a little thing, they are actually searching for me so wantonly! I … "I just didn't want to ruin my life by stealing those broken things, so I kept running …"
"Is that so?" It was obvious that he did not believe her words.
"Believe it or not!" Luoluo bit her lips as she stared at Pei Luoxuan.
"Good." Pei Luoxuan laughed and suddenly stopped interacting with her. He turned around and sat behind the table, and started drinking his wine again.
"You …." Luoluo looked at him in shock. He actually let her go so quickly.
"What's Ming Zi?" After drinking a mouthful of wine, Pei Luoxuan once again raised his head and swept his eyes across Luoluo's small face.
"Luoluo." The Luoluo didn't dare to bring her surname out as well, as she was afraid that Pei Luoxuan would know that she was the Grand Princess of today, and also a wangfei who had once bickered with him.
Pei Luoxuan only raised his eyebrows, raised his wine cup and drank the whole cup. "Sing."
"Ugh …" Luoluo looked at him in shock.
"What is it?" Pei Luoxuan looked at him.
"No, it's nothing!" Luoluo swallowed her saliva, steadied herself, and then pulled at her clothes. Recalling that he did not like to listen to those songs that did not have too many melodies, she could only sing the song she sang in front of the restaurant not long ago.
It was only until the end of the singing that Luoluo realized that Pei Luoxuan had actually not drunk a single sip of alcohol while she was singing for such a long time, and only sat there firmly, looking at her carefully.
"Young Master Pei …." Luoluo looked at him carefully.
Pei Luoxuan suddenly laughed blandly, stood up, and waved the fan in his hand in front of his chest twice. As if he was thinking about something, he suddenly closed his fan, and smiled at the stunned Luoluo.
"You don't have to come to the restaurant to sing again tomorrow!" Pei Luoxuan suddenly said with a bland smile.
"Why?" Luoluo looked at him in shock.
"I just happened to be short of an attendant, and it turns out that the servant's face is indeed covered with red lumps. He has already left to go home and recuperate, and you are just right for that!"
"I don't want it!" Luoluo glared at him in fear. "I don't want to be a servant …"
"Alright, then I'll send you back to the palace!" Pei Luoxuan suddenly laughed sinisterly.
The Luoluo was stunned. It's happening again, it's happening again … Who did he say looked like a delinquent? In her eyes, he was the one who looked like a delinquent, laughing so badly.
"Well, you can be a page!" "As long as you are not afraid, I will also steal from your house!" In any case, she had nowhere to go, so she might be able to live a comfortable life in the Pei Jia Stronghold. Moreover, it could prevent her from wandering around and being bumped into by the people from the Prince's Mansion.
"But …." The Luoluo suddenly spoke again, "You should have a reward for being a servant, right?"
"Naturally!" "How much do you want?" Pei Luoxuan continued to smile faintly. He knew that she definitely had not stolen anything from the Duke Palaces.
"Every month, every month!" "Three hundred taels of silver!" Luoluo arrogantly raised her head and glared at Pei Luoxuan.
Pei Luoxuan's hand suddenly froze, and he suddenly looked into Luoluo's eyes that looked extremely natural. Three hundred silver taels? Did she have no idea about the Ming Ri Dynasty's silver? Three hundred liang, that was the yearly tribute of a third rank official, and she was paid three hundred liang for being a servant for a month …
Actually, the annual income of a servant was only 5 silver coins.
"Good!" Although Pei Luoxuan knew that agreeing to it was not like him, who had fought in the market for so many years, he suddenly felt that there was no problem with Luoluo.
"Deal!" Luoluo suddenly imitated him and laughed sinisterly.
On the second day, under the guidance of the owner of the restaurant, Luoluo walked along the long street for an entire two hours before finally arriving at a house with two stone lions in front of it.
"Hey, are there really that many rich people these days?" The Luoluo looked at the words' Pei Jia Stronghold 'in large golden letters, and suddenly remembered that the front door of the Prince Chilling Cold Mansion was not much different from this place, it was just because of the throne, it was even more majestic than this place.
Just as they arrived at the door, they were stopped by two guards. Luoluo was startled, and just as she wanted to say something, she saw someone who looked like a butler walk out, and after asking her about Ming Zi, he led her in.
The Luoluo did not have the interest to look at the pavilions and thank you. She was sure that the Duke Palaces would be luxurious and she would not feel anything from them. Unfamiliar!
After the butler brought Luoluo into the Luoyuan, he stopped and said a few words, "From today onwards, you will be in charge of the daily life of the Young Castle Lord. If there is anything you need, you are not allowed to leave the Pei Jia Stronghold.
"Serving and living?" Luoluo suddenly widened her eyes as she turned her head to look at Pei Luoxuan who just happened to walk out from the pavilion and was wearing a pear blossom white robe.
Seeing Luoluo, Pei Luoxuan only raised his eyebrows and smiled. From the looks of it, his future days would be much less boring.
"No, no …" Wasn't the manservant the kind of person who could just stand behind him and pretend to look good? To serve his place? "I …" The Luoluo opened her eyes wide. It couldn't be, that after being released from the palace, she had changed from a princess to a maid, then to a princess and princess. Now that she had left the palace, she wanted to break off all ties with the palace, but she had become a lousy servant that served her.
"How is this even considered a servant? She's clearly close to me …." Luoluo's mouth gaped as he remembered that he was a man. "He was clearly a servant by the skin!"
"No matter what, you have to listen to the Young Castle Lord!" The butler glared at Luoluo impatiently.
