Mentioning his mother's consort, tears welled up in the eyes of the Western Tomb Beitang. However, he did his best to not let them fall.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked." After hearing this, Xia Sizhu's eyes narrowed slightly as she lowered her eyes.
"The master's medicine is ready!" At that moment, the sound of Eastwood's knocking came from the door.
"It's fine. Big Brother Beitang will get the medicine for you." Covering the sadness in his eyes, the Western Tomb North Hall put on a nonchalant expression and opened the door to receive the medicine.
"Drink it!" The Western Tomb Beitang carefully placed the medicine in Xia Sizhu's hands.
Xia Sizhu picked up the medicine and slowly drank it down. After drinking it, she closed her eyes and opened them again a moment later. A light flashed in her eyes, no longer as empty as before.
"Beitang gege, you're not as bad as I thought you were!" Xia Sizhu looked at the man in front of her. He had thick eyebrows and long eyelashes. His eyes appeared emotionless, but there was a hidden emotion in them.
"Is that so? Beitang gege looks pretty good, right? Alright, since it's already dark, big brother Beitang will not disturb you anymore. Go to sleep early, I'll send you to your husband's side tomorrow morning. "
Seeing that Xia Sizhu's eyes had finally regained their focus, Xi Ling Yan smiled even though Qing'er was trying very hard to pretend that she was alright.
But he could see the weariness in her eyes, and now that she had seen it, he should go out and let her rest.
"Yes." Xia Sizhu obediently nodded her head as she sent the Western Tomb North Hall off with her eyes.
After sending off the Xi Ling Northern Hall, because that rotten person had touched her, even though it was through her clothes, Xia Sizhu still felt uncomfortable. Xia Sizhu really wanted to take a bath, but should she tell Beitang gege about it?
"Miss, I have come under the orders of the Second Prince to serve you. Is there anything I can do for you?" At this moment, a maid pushed open the door and entered the room.
"I want to take a bath. After that, you go and see if there are any clothes that I used to wear. Find them for me."
Xia Sizhu described the color of the clothing to the maid.
"Young lady, your servant will go first. Young lady, please rest first." The maid first prepared the water for Xia Sizhu to bathe in. After helping her bathe, she arranged for Xia Sizhu to sleep.
"Yes." She had been forcing herself to go and stand up to write, and now that she had drunk the medicine, she fell asleep as soon as she relaxed and leaned her head back against the pillow.
On this night, she actually dreamed of Dongfang Ye, and the Dongfang Ye in her dream was very gentle.
The Xi Ling Northern Hall looked at the sleeping Xia Sizhu, her lips slightly raised. She was smiling so sweetly, perhaps she was dreaming about her husband!
He was actually very curious about Qing'er's husband. What kind of person was the Night King in the southern mausoleum? He also wanted to see if Night King had the ability to protect Qing'er. If he didn't have the ability, then he wouldn't mind taking her away!
Right now, the West Tomb North Court was right. If Dongfang Ye wasn't satisfied and doubted her, could a person who placed Qing'er in such a predicament really have the ability to protect her?
"Did you send the letter?" Sensing the aura beside him, the Western Tomb North Hall restrained its emotions. There was not a trace of warmth in its eyes.
"Your subordinate has already sent someone to send you off!" Eastwoods showed that he was born and spoke.
"Yes." The Western Tomb Beitang responded in agreement before turning around to leave Xia Sizhu's room.
Dongfang Ye was sitting in his study room with a hostile expression. His expression was so cold that it could have formed a layer of ice. Gu Xin and Ling Feng stood to the side, not daring to speak.
"There's a man in the prince's office who says he knows about the princess." The butler spoke in surprise.
When the news of the bestowal of marriage was announced, everyone from the Night King's Residence changed their address to Princess Xia Sizhu.
In their hearts, only Xia Sizhu was the wangfei. Although she hadn't married the prince, it was a promise from the bottom of their hearts.
"Let him in." At this moment, Dongfang Ye was extremely nervous, because he didn't know if the person who came was delivering good news or bad news.
"Presumably, this is Night King!" "My master wants me to send a message to the Night King that the prince is looking for Miss Xia Sizhu, who is with our master. If the prince wants to see Miss Xia, then he should pick her up at the South City Gate tomorrow."
The person looked around and quickly locked his gaze onto the seated Dongfang Ye.
"How is Zhu?" Dongfang Ye looked at the person with the letter and asked.
"I can't tell you this, but Night King can check for himself tomorrow." The person who brought the letter did not say anything.
"Who is your master?" When these words came out, the pressure on Dongfang Ye's body was instantly released, making the person carrying the letter retreat a few steps.
"You can't say that either." The person carrying the letter lowered his head and said.
"If you don't tell me, do you believe This King will kill you?" The murderous intent from Dongfang Ye's body rose.
"I believe you. Since I dared to come here, I will. I am prepared to die. I will kill as many people as I want." The bearer of the letter had long harbored a death wish.
"This King won't kill you. Leave!" Dongfang Ye waved his hand and waved towards the man with the letter. The man spat out a mouthful of blood and left.
"Why didn't you kill him?" Ling Feng asked doubtfully.
"No need, this person has a death wish, we can't get any news from him." Dongfang Ye coldly said.
"Then should Your Highness chase them?" Ling Feng asked.
"No need, he will expose his master's location once he returns. He definitely won't leave the city gate, it's useless even if you follow him."
Dongfang Ye was very anxious, but he didn't lose his cool. Ever since Ah Zhu left, he tried his best to remain calm. He was afraid that he might make a mistake and harm Ah Zhu.
"Then what should we do now?" Ling Feng asked.
"Go and guard the city gate." Dongfang Ye stood up and disappeared from the study, closely followed by Gu Xin and Ling Feng.
Dongfang Ye suddenly appeared at the city gate with a cold face. Because he didn't know his purpose, the soldiers guarding the city gate were all worried for the whole night.
Dongfang Ye had guessed correctly, that person who brought the letter didn't leave the city at all. He immediately found an inn to stay at, and prepared to meet up with his master tomorrow.
"Miss, please wake up. You're about to leave." When it was ugly, the maid pushed the door open and entered.
"So early?" Xia Sizhu woke from her dream with a puzzled look on her face.
"Because we need to hurry on ahead and bring the young lady to meet our husband, the prince wants us to wake the young lady up as soon as possible!"
"Miss brought some clothes for Miss yesterday. I don't know if Miss wants to wear these clothes, but all the servants brought another set of clothes for Miss to choose from." The maid placed the two pieces of clothing in front of Xia Sizhu.
Xia Sizhu took the clothes that she had worn earlier. The maid thought that she was going to wear them, but she discovered that she had pulled out a bunch of porcelain vases from her clothes.
The maid felt her scalp go numb when she saw the shiny silver needle. She had held onto that piece of clothing just now, but it hadn't hit her.
"Put on that dress for me!" After taking out the items one by one, Xia Sizhu nodded. Not a single one was missing. She threw away the clothes in her hand and pointed to another item as she spoke.
The clothes she had been wearing were mainly to take out the contents.
Because Xia Sizhu's right hand was inconvenient, everything was accomplished by the maid.
Xia Sizhu placed the silver needles and the like on this piece of clothing before leaving with the maid.
As soon as Xia Sizhu walked out of the courtyard, she discovered that everyone was already prepared and had not moved. Most likely, they were waiting for her.
"Qing'er, get on the carriage!" The maidservant led Xia Sizhu to the side of the carriage, while the Western Tomb North Hall stretched out a hand to pull Xia Sizhu along.
Xia Sizhu placed her hand over the hands of the Western Tomb Beitang. The hands of the Western Tomb Beitang were different from the cocoons left behind by Dongfang Ye's practice. The hands of the Western Tomb Beitang were very soft, like a woman's hands.
"Let's go!" When Xia Sizhu was seated, the Western Tomb North Hall sent someone to drive a carriage.
"Yesterday, I sent a letter asking your husband to wait at the city gate. I'm afraid he has arrived! The carriage moved quickly. Just as it was about to reach the city gates, the Western Tomb North Hall spoke.
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Xia Sizhu lifted the curtain in front of the carriage and watched as the carriage slowly entered through the city gate. At the same time, her heart continued to beat wildly.
She didn't know if Dongfang Ye would be angry when he found out that she had disappeared, or if he would be angry if he found her again, but she had a bad feeling about this.
As soon as he entered the city, Xia Sizhu saw three horses at the city gate. The one in the middle was Dongfang Ye.
