284 escape
The housekeeper immediately laughed and lost his eyes. With this sentence, it is better than a million rewards. Your highness Qi, hearing this, doesn't know what joy looks like?
These things are fresh to eat. The fresh lotus root has the thickness of adult legs and is sweet and fragrant. Jinxiu cuts the lotus root into small pieces, stews half with Siam pork into spareribs and lotus root soup, and steams the other half with honey with pickled osmanthus to make osmanthus sugar lotus root.
Sturgeon is very fresh and has no spines. Jinxiu cuts the fish into small pieces, adds some soy sauce and directly steams it in the pot. The other part takes out the big thorns, hammers them into fish paste with a wooden hammer, makes them into fish balls, and cooks them into fish ball soup.
Watermelon is sweet and delicious. Jinxiu cuts the watermelon into small pieces and puts it in the well water for ice. If Shen Qingru doesn't like ice, Jinxiu makes her a watermelon milk dessert. The warm milk can neutralize the cold of watermelon.
Everything is ready, waiting for Xiao Qiyu's arrival. Shen Qingru looked at the busy figure of Jinxiu and sighed deeply.
Xiao Qiyu drank a lot of wine. All his big and dirty subordinates are drunk. It's inevitable to have a party on this occasion. At the end of the drink, even Xiao Qiyu was confused, but he was very sober. He still remembered what Shen Qingru asked the housekeeper to pass on.
She invited him to have dinner with her in the evening. Thinking of this, Xiao Qiyu showed a faint smile on his face and threw away the attendant who wanted to help him: "don't help, the king will go by himself." as he staggered forward, his memory suddenly returned to several years ago, when she was still his seven princes and concubines. At that time, he often went back to the house after socializing outside, No matter how late it is, there is always a small lamp in the room, and the flickering candle is particularly warm in the dark night. The lamp let him know that no matter how late he came back, there would always be someone waiting for him at home.
They seem to have returned to the old days, the days when they were carefree and dependent on each other.
Xiao Qiyu stood still outside the room, looking at the dim yellow candle and closing his eyes as if intoxicated. How long have you not enjoyed the warmth of this family? In his last life, he only saw the throne and power, but ignored the most insipid warmth around him. For this reason, he deeply regretted it. Fortunately, God had mercy and finally gave it back to him.
Xiao Qiyu didn't forget to untie his robe and blew in the night wind for a long time until there was no wine on his body. He was sure he wouldn't smoke Shen Qingru. Then he pushed open the door of the house. In the room, Shen Qingru is sitting in an armchair against the pillow. She seems to have just washed her hair. There is a faint smell of jasmine in the room. She always likes to use all kinds of flowers and plants to make her own powder shampoo. Her black hair was as smooth and soft as silk. Jinxiu was carefully combing her with a peach comb. Shen Qingru closed her eyes slightly. Her white face was as delicate as white porcelain under the dim candle light, with a feeling of Yingrun and transparency. Xiao Qiyu carefully stood by the door and stared at the white jade beauty. If it wasn't for the half open door, the wind blowing in made Shen Qingru slightly uncomfortable, maybe they hadn't found Xiao Qiyu standing at the door.
"Why don't you come in?" I don't know if it's because I'm drunk. I always feel that Shen Qingru's voice is very gentle at this time, as if there is no disagreement.
Xiao Qiyu slowly walks in. Shen Qingru doesn't care about calling Jinxiu to bring Xiao Qiyu Jiejiu soup. Jiejiu soup is light bitter and tastes different from what he usually drank. Xiao Qiyu still drinks it all at once.
Under the candlestick, Xiao Qiyu slowly drank lotus root spare ribs soup and tasted the fresh and sweet taste of the soup. No matter how good a cook is, he can't make such a delicious taste. His wife cooked it herself, and then put it in front of him with jade like little hands.
"Why don't you eat?" Shen Qingru got up and wanted to go after filling him with a bowl of soup, but Xiao Qiyu suddenly grabbed his sleeve. Shen Qingru was slightly stunned, and then said with a somewhat embarrassed smile: "you came back too late... I can't wait. I've just eaten..."
Xiao Qiyu lowered her head and moved her shoulders. Shen Qingru looked at her in horror, but she was facing a pair of smiling eyes.
"Well done." he praised, and his warm palm gently covered her white jade like hand: "I came back too late. If there is another time, you don't have to wait for me. You can't be hungry."
Shen Qingru replied stiffly, but the big palms covered her little hands as if they had a root, and refused to move their position. Shen Qingru had to sit down and bored to watch Xiao Qiyu eat.
Xiao Qiyu was satisfied with his food and looked at Shen Qingru more and more strangely. Shen Qingru's heart was cold, but her face was silent until Xiao Qiyu leaned lazily on the chair and looked at her with a smile: "Shen Qingru, where's my clothes?"
Shen Qingru stared at him with an ugly face. He thought the other party had forgotten this. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qiyu still remembered it.
"Why? It's been nearly half a month. Haven't you even made a sleeve?" Xiao Qiyu approached slowly. The warm breath rushed on Shen Qingru's face. Her face turned stiffly.
Xiao Qiyu smiled happily. His thumb was picked on Shen Qingru's chin and moved her face to himself: "is xiaoqingru shy?"
"Oh, I forgot. It's been so long. You can't remember your husband's size. Why don't you measure it now." Xiao Qiyu smiled provocatively, got up, widened his robe and left his robe on the ground.
The middle coat was also torn open by him, revealing most of his strong chest. The belt of the inner garment seemed to be tied tightly. Xiao Qiyu didn't pull it off for a long time. He was so loose that he was half draped on his body. He couldn't tell the amorous feelings. Xiao Qiyu smiled and approached Shen Qingru step by step. His finger hooked her: "Qingru, come and measure it for your husband."
"There is no soft ruler here..." Rao was at this time, and Shen Qingru didn't lose his composure, and said to Xiao Qiyu calmly.
"Soft ruler?" Xiao Qiyu seemed to hear something interesting and said with a laugh: "that thing? It's unnecessary. Qingru, measure it with your hand and you'll know my size."
Xiao Qiyu gently raised his hand and grabbed the soft and greasy hand. He felt as if there was a fire burning in his heart. He couldn't wait to put the little hand on his exposed chest. Shen Qing pushed it with the following consciousness. This push not only failed to push Xiao Qiyu away, but also staggered and fell to the ground.
Xiao Qiyu was quick-sighted and took the soft body back and held it in his arms. He laughed and said, "what are you afraid of, I can't..."
Before he finished, Xiao Qiyu stared wide and looked at Shen Qingru in her arms. Her face was slightly frightened, as if she was very afraid of him, but the silver needle hidden in her palm was stabbed on the acupoint between Xiao Qiyu's neck.
The bottom of Xiao Qiyu's eyes were red with blood. His two big palms were stuck on her neck. As long as he exerted a little force, Shen Qingru would die under his palm. I don't know whether he lost his strength completely or moved his compassion for her. Before Shen Qingru was about to suffocate, Xiao Qiyu paralyzed her on the ground, and his two eyes were still unwilling to stare at her.
Shen Qingru held the table and gasped. Fresh air poured into her lungs, which made her feel much more comfortable. The feeling of suffocation was really too uncomfortable. The silver needle hidden in her hand was only used temporarily. She had already added two drugs, Acacia skin and keel, to Xiao Qiyu's antidote soup, which had the effect of calming and hypnosis. She was going to steal it after Xiao Qiyu fell asleep He stole away. Unexpectedly, Xiao Qiyu used the strength of wine to do something to her. Shen Qingru could only stun him with the silver needle hidden in his hand in advance.
Shen Qingru took two deep breaths and tried to keep herself calm. There was not much time left for her. She must dare to escape before Xiao Qiyu woke up.
With a bang, Shen Qingru, who was changing into clothes, looked up. Jinxiu stood there blankly. The sound just now was the sound of her overturning the watermelon fruit plate in her hand.
"Madam, are you..." rich brocade stammered and asked. On the ground lay his seven Highnesses who were unconscious, but the madam secretly changed into the servant girl's clothes. Is the madam going to run away?
"Rich brocade, please." Shen Qingru looked at her with a hint of plea in her eyes.
"I can't wait. I don't care about being alone, but the child in my belly must not become a chip used by Xiao Qiyu to threaten others." Shen Qingru's voice revealed vulnerability for the first time: "I must go."
"Madam, please take rich brocade with you." rich brocade suddenly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Shen Qingru: "rich brocade doesn't want to stay here alone. Rich brocade can take care of you when she stays with her. Please don't leave me alone..."
Shen Qingru hesitated a little. She didn't think about taking rich brocade together before. It's just that it's too risky for two people to go together. It's not necessarily what they have to face after escaping. It's better to let rich brocade stay here. With Xiao Qiyu's consistent temperament, it should not be possible to anger an innocent slave.
"But it may be more dangerous after escaping..." Shen Qingru hesitated.
Rich brocade shook her head: "rich brocade is not afraid. Rich brocade has no relatives in the world. Only madam you... Take rich brocade as your sister. Whether it is dangerous or not, rich brocade is willing to follow you. Please take rich brocade with you."
"OK." since rich brocade insisted on going together, Shen Qingru replied: "it's not too late. Change your clothes quickly and we'll go now."
If they are lucky, they can get out of the city smoothly before Xiao Qiyu wakes up, and there is a great possibility that they can escape Xiao Qiyu's pursuit. Now the most important thing is time. Shen Qingru no longer hesitates after changing his clothes. After giving instructions to Jinxiu, he left the house without looking back and didn't look at Xiao Qiyu on the ground.
