Chapter 448: Burned (Ask for Pink)

In the early morning, the fog was like a thin veil shrouded in the sky above Linmoxuan.

As soon as the rooster crowed, An Rong woke up.

When I have things in my heart and worries, I can't sleep well.

Before An Rong, he had never seen Xiao Zhan get up, and at this hour, Xiao Zhan was still asleep.

Through the dim light outside the window, An Rong opened his eyes from Xiao Zhan's arms, quietly, and wanted to struggle.

She didn't dare to disturb Xiao Zhan, her strength was very gentle, how could she break free from Xiao Zhan's shackles with such strength?

An Rong tried twice, but couldn't open it, so he simply didn't move, just admiring Xiao Zhan's sleeping face.

When he was asleep, he naturally didn't wear a mask, his handsome face was as beautiful as a demon, and he was delicate without a trace of flaws, An Rong reached out and touched it, not as soft as her skin, but it was not lost to her at all.

An Rong pouted, a big man, what to do with such a good skin, it is a waste, especially when he shows people with a mask all day long, it is even more wasteful and wasteful.

What's even more infuriating is that if she hadn't soaked in the pure spring twice, her skin would not be as good as his, and she would have been able to depress people to death.

However, it is not surprising that he has to soak in the pure good spring every month, although it is not much, but it is better to persevere.

At this moment, his eyes are closed and his eyelashes are very slender, but such slender eyelashes are matched with a pair of deep and cold eyes, which is a waste.

(

There is also Xiao Zhan's smooth and full forehead, which is covered by a mask, and can only be admired occasionally, which is wasteful.

It's really blind to such a handsome face like a god.

An Rong pouted, and suddenly realized. Xiao Zhan grew a beard on his chin.

It's shallow, but it's true.

An Rong was surprised and reached out to touch it.

Xiao Zhan was the only man she had ever seen who didn't have a beard except for the eunuchs in the palace.

Though...... In her previous life, she hadn't seen Xiao Zhan a few times.

However, we often say, "If you have no hair on your mouth, you can't do things well." ”

Even if Xiao Zhan is very mature and steady, he always feels unreliable.

An Rong touched and touched it in a new way, until there was a mellow sound like a spring in his head. "Haven't touched enough?"

An Rong was taken aback. His face turned red unexpectedly, although he touched his beard, he always felt that it was too Meng Lang.

An Rong blushed, but did not withdraw his hand. Snorted. "Touch what's wrong. You didn't grow a beard in your previous life, I thought you weren't. ”

Xiao Zhan's face was black.

Men will grow beards well, how can he be an exception. It's just that he shaves off the beard that grows out every day, and it's clean, as if it didn't grow at all.

Besides, his face had been injured before, and no one dared to stare at his face at all.

"You're not afraid that I'm afraid that I'll take a detour when I see it, how do you find out that I don't have a beard?" Xiao Zhan pinched An Rong's face and said.

The other hand is very dishonestly moving.

An Rong twisted his body and pulled his hand out, Xiao Zhan returned what An Rong said as it was, "What's wrong with touching?" ”

An Rong was momentarily speechless.

I only heard Xiao Zhan whispering softly, and there was a hoarseness in the murmur, "I will ...... once every three or five days." ”

An Rong's face was dry, and he was about to shrink his neck, but as soon as Xiao Zhan turned over, he suppressed An Rong.

The brocade was flown over, and the mandarin duck tent was warm.

The morning fog cleared, and a ray of morning light passed through the horizon.

Gradually, the window lit up.

The birds, which had slept all night, stood on the branches and stretched out their wings, shook their heads, chirped and chirped happily.

Mother Yu was used to getting up early and walking around the yard, and when she heard the movement in the house, her old face was hot, and she looked at the closed door several times.

There was a sense of worry in his eyes.

The young grandmother is a pregnant person, how can she withstand this posture?

It's understandable to be young and greedy, but early in the morning, the maid hasn't gotten up yet, so she ...... Don't mess around and be willful all night.

Hearing the footsteps of the maid, Yu's mother blushed and ordered, "Go to the kitchen and boil more hot water, and the young master and grandmother will take a bath in a while." ”

Dong'er came over and asked Haitang, "Sister Haitang, Sister Peony didn't seem to come back yesterday?" ”

Haitang nodded and said, "It should be that Old Madam Li left her overnight." ”

"Is Sister Peony coming back today?" Dong'er asked.

Haitang shook her head, "I don't know, I should come back, right?" ”

As he was talking, he heard someone shouting at the gate of the courtyard, "Dong'er, open the courtyard door for me." ”

Dong'er was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly ran over to open the courtyard door.

After seeing the peony, Dong'er was stunned.

A meter away from her, stood a woman covered in jet black, with messy hair and tattered clothes.

Dong'er looked at it carefully several times before she was sure that she was a peony, her little brows furrowed, and she asked, "Didn't you go to General Li's mansion, how could this be, you wouldn't have offended General Li and been thrown into a beggar's nest, right?" ”

No, the street beggar is three points cleaner than her.

Peony raised her hand and wanted to pat Dong'er's head, Dong'er quickly flashed her body and dodged, she didn't want to take a shower early in the morning, and the clothes she changed last night hadn't been washed.

Peony bared her teeth and said, "I haven't slept all night, and I just came back from the Hou Mansion." ”

Haitang walked over and was stunned, "Why did you come back from the Hou Mansion, didn't you go to General Li's Mansion?" ”

Peony looked dirty and said disgustedly, "The young grandmother hasn't woken up yet, I'll go take a shower and change my clothes first, and I'll have something big to announce in a while." ”

With that, Peony hurried back to the room.

Dong'er and a few maids went to help her carry water.

Inside the house, Xiao Zhan hugged An Rong contentedly, touched her face, and looked gentle as if ice melted.

An Rong closed his eyes tiredly and fell asleep, curled up in Xiao Zhan's arms like a cat.

Xiao Zhan looked at the sky outside, it was already past the hour of his morning exercise.

He withdrew his hand, got up carefully, helped An Rong cover the quilt, took the clothes on the hanger, put them on, and went out of the house.

Before going to the study, I didn't forget to tell the maid not to make noise.

Then, An Rong slept until the third pole of the sun.

When I woke up, all the maids in the room had solemn faces.

An Rong looked at them with a twisted brow. I had a bad premonition in my heart, and I hurriedly asked, "But what's wrong?" ”

Peony pouted and said, "Only half of the Hou Mansion has been burned." ”

An Rong's face turned pale, and he shouted eagerly, "You say it again, what's wrong with the Hou Mansion?!" ”

Peony bit her lip and said, "Last night, more than a dozen assassins set fire to the Hou Mansion with arrows on fire. The Hou Mansion was on fire everywhere. Burned in a mess ....... ”

An Rong clenched his fists, his face was as cold as ice, "What about the old lady?" ”

Peony hurriedly said, "Old lady, they are just frightened. Nothing else. But...... The new lady was cut in the arm with a knife. She was wounded by the enemy in order to save the third wife. ”

In short, last night, the Hou Mansion experienced two fierce battles.

That's right. It's two.

The burning of the Hou Mansion was the second fierce battle.

Peony knew about this, and it was also accidental.

The matter also started with Mrs. Li's physical discomfort.

In fact, she is not feeling unwell, but she is uncomfortable.

Mrs. Li, she gave birth to a pair of children in her life, and Miss Li has reached the age of marriage again.

In the future, the Li family will be left with her and Li Liang, and a little grandson, which is not lively.

Mrs. Li called Peony to live, just for this matter, she wanted Peony to move to the Li Mansion to live.

At that time, Peony refused.

So how can she do it, she is the personal maid of the young grandmother, and she has a heavy responsibility, how can she move to the Li Mansion to live?

Besides, if she wants to see Li Liang's face every day that she owes him tens of thousands of taels of silver and can't pay it back, will she be hard to swallow?

She came to live in Li's Mansion, maybe she was sick.

But the Li family, except for Li Liang, everyone else is fine.

Especially Young Master Li, he is simply a follower of Peony, he follows him wherever he goes, and even has Peony to sleep with him at night.

Mrs. Li didn't object, and Peony couldn't bear to refuse, so she agreed.

But no one sued her, Young Master Li's bedroom was next door to General Li!

Peony was depressed and didn't close her eyes in the middle of the night.

No, when some officers and soldiers hurriedly told Li Liang, she got up and eavesdropped.

Hearing that the Hou Mansion of Wu'an was on fire, Peony couldn't sit still and wanted to follow Li Liang to the Hou Mansion.

Li Liang is a general patrolling the city, and the matter of fire is also under his control.

Peony wants to follow, he naturally doesn't allow it, but Peony has a bad temper, and no one can stop it.

Don't let her go with her, she can do it herself, right?

But she was a girl's house, walking in the middle of the night, even if Li Liang was ruthless, he was afraid that Mrs. Li's whip was not, and the officers and soldiers said good things, so Li Liang reluctantly took the peony with him.

When Peony rushed to the Hou Mansion, the Hou Mansion was on fire, and the thick flames shone the night like day.

As for the dirty body, it was made by the maid who saved the Hou Mansion.

An Rong heard her say this, she was a little anxious, even if she knew that the old lady was fine, but she couldn't figure it out, she had already asked the dark guards to go back and tell the Hou Ye, be careful of the revenge of the Zhuang Wangfu, how could they be burned like that, where did those secret guards go?

This is related to the first assassination.

An Rong asked the secret guard to go back and remind them, and the Hou Ye and the old lady were mentally prepared, and decided that if Zhuang Wangfu really dared to assassinate, they wanted her to look good.

The first wave of assassins, about twenty people came, and they were all strangled by the secret guards of the Hou Mansion.

After the old lady and the Hou Ye were furious, they asked the secret guard to return the bodies of the assassins to Princess Zhuang.

But what people didn't expect was that after the dark guard left, another group of assassins came and set fire to the Hou Mansion.

If it weren't for the timely arrival of the secret guards and the forced assassins to leave, I was afraid that the Hou Mansion would suffer heavy losses.

Hearing this, An Rong's brows furrowed, "Aren't those two groups of assassins in the same group?" ”

Peony shook her head, "The slave doesn't know, the new lady and the Hou Ye said no." ”

She couldn't figure it out, in addition to offending Princess Zhuang, the Hou Mansion didn't offend anyone else, could it be the Hou Mansion of the Protector?

Peony felt that the Protector Mansion didn't have that much courage, let alone the means, otherwise would it be wrong to kill someone?

An Rong couldn't sit still, she got up, felt the sweat all over, and An Rong cursed Xiao Zhan in a low voice.

It just so happened that the maid had prepared the bathing water, so An Rong washed it haphazardly and got up.

After getting dressed up, An Rong was in a hurry to go back to the Hou Mansion and didn't even eat breakfast.

Xiao Zhan came in, saw that she was in a hurry, and said, "It was not only the Wu'an Hou Mansion that had an accident last night, compared to the Xinggong and Zhuang Wang's Mansion, the Wu'an Hou Mansion was just burned, which is already a great luck." ”

ps: After staying up all night to this point, I finally made up for yesterday's end.

I have something to do this morning, and I guess I will be back in the afternoon.

Well, it is estimated that the update will be relatively late.

I try to o (∩_∩)o ha! (To be continued......) R1292
