Chapter 64: Fugitive Slaves

Du Baozhu was busy with work in his last life, and he didn't even talk about love seriously, and he never thought about getting married.

When she got here, although Cui Shi also vaguely mentioned her marriage a few times, because she was still young, she was busy fleeing and didn't think about it at all.

At this time, the wind was clear and the moon was clear, and the young man in front of him raised the corners of his lips, and his slightly round eyes looked at her deeply. A vague thought crossed her mind: if she had to get married, it seemed like a good choice to spend her life with the person in front of her.

Du Baozhu has always been a decisive character, and since he felt that the plan was feasible, he immediately nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you to repay the favor!" ”

I didn't expect the little girl to be so frank, the originally calm teenager was stunned for a moment, and soon his eyes were drowned out with smiles.

His fingertips moved, but he didn't exceed the rules, but he just took off the jade hanging around his neck and put it in Du Baozhu's palm: "Wait for me." ”

The jade was round, the size of the thumb, and only a hole in the top was drilled through the lanyard, and the rest of the stone was not carved. It has been with the owner for many years, and the round jade surface is smooth and smooth, and it also carries the residual warmth of the owner.

Du Baozhu solemnly put the jade into his purse, and then waved his hand at Song Wen with a smile and said, "It's almost dawn, you should be careful on the road." ”

Song Wen looked up at the crescent moon that had sunk to the top of the mountain, and finally put the burden on his back and turned around and plunged into the depths of the woods.

When his figure completely disappeared into the darkness, Du Baozhu tiptoed back to the room and lay down beside Cui's.

Cui Shi slept deeply, heard the movement and asked vaguely: "Jiaojiaoer?" ”

"It's me." Du Baozhu affectionately held Cui's hand: "Auntie, it's okay, I went to Gongfang just now, continue to sleep." ”

Cui Shi said angrily: "Such a big kang, you have to be next to me, and you will die of heat." ”

said this, but he didn't let go of Du Baozhu's hand, and fell asleep again.

In the dark, Du Baozhu pinched his purse, as if he had completed a big thing, and smiled at the corner of his lips.

Early the next morning, in the noisy rooster crow, Yule rubbed his eyes and got up, and patted Wen Xi on the left: "Sister Wenxi, it's dawn." ”

As she spoke, she patted the new mute sleeping on her right again, but this one was empty. When I opened my eyes, I saw that the bed was empty, and the bedding was neatly folded, as if no one had slept before.

This newcomer is really scheming! I actually got up early in the morning and went to the little lady to earn performance!

Dissatisfied with the pleasure, he got up and got out of the wing room without even bothering to wash. However, she searched the kitchen, the thatched house, the courtyard and the courtyard, but there was no trace of the mute.

At this time, she was completely panicked, and hurriedly went back to the house to wake up Wenxi: "Sister Wenxi!" ”

Wenxi fell asleep in a daze, and suddenly heard the panicked voice of Yule, and immediately opened his eyes: "What's wrong?" ”

"The dumb is gone...... "Taste Le cried and said with a sad face, "Did she run away secretly?" ”

"Her deed of sale is in the hands of the little lady, and she can't run away at all." Wen Xi is a few years older, and his temperament is much calmer: "Xu is going to Gongfang?" ”

"Nope!" Taste Le's face collapsed even more: "I've looked for everything, and the other sisters who woke up also said that they didn't see her...... You say, she ran away in anger because I scolded her last night? ”

I have not been very happy that there is an extra first-class maid in the courtyard of the little lady. She has a straightforward temperament, although she will not deliberately do some dirty hands and feet to suppress newcomers, but in order to make the old man prestigious, she will also play some clever tricks to deliberately bully people.

For example, when she divided the bed last night, she relied on her seniority to drive the mute to the most impermeable position.

The dumb man held the quilt and refused to sleep at that time, and she was secretly proud of it for a long time, thinking that a newcomer is a newcomer, so what about kung fu? Still have to be angry!

Later, she fell asleep in a daze, and she could not remember whether the mute had come to sleep or not.

When I thought about it at this time, I regretted it: "It's over, the dumb man ran away, the little lady must be angry with me...... Will you send me to the laundry? ”

Wen Xi's brain was clearer, and he immediately got out of bed and rummaged through the clothes box shared by others, and saw that the burden that the dumb man was carrying at that time was still pressed at the bottom, so he spoke: "It's not necessarily that he ran away...... Let's go and tell the little lady first, and ask the little lady to decide. ”

After hearing this, he shook his head desperately: "I can't go!" You help me hide the little lady first, and I'll go and get the dumb back! ”

As he spoke, he ran to the door, but Wen Xi grabbed his sleeve: "Fool, this thing is a little weird, maybe it's the little lady's arrangement." What should you do if you run around and leak the news and ruin the little lady's affairs? ”

"Huh? Isn't a fugitive slave just a fugitive, and what else can be weird? Isn't there still a list of the Zhang family's maids at the intersection of Jinggongfang? ”

Wen Xi saw that she was still bored, so she knew that she couldn't tell her clearly, sighed, and took her hand to find Du Baozhu together.

Sure enough, the little lady who had just gotten up to wash heard this, and there was no trace of surprise on her white and pure little face, but looked at her with provocative eyes: "Is there such a thing as a public statement?" ”

Wen Xi hurriedly said: "The slave thought it was the little lady's arrangement, so he didn't dare to go out." ”

"Oh?" Du Baozhu opened his mouth lightly, with a slight smile on his face: "I escaped a slave, how could it be my arrangement?" ”

As soon as he saw her like this, he knelt on the ground and confessed: "Little lady, it's all the slave's fault, and the slave will go and get the person back." ”

Wen Xi was calm as usual: "Earlier, the little lady said that she had bought a new slave, but she didn't bring it back to the house for a long time. When she went out of the city this time, the slave and maid appeared again, and also recruited the military master of the Shence Army to search, and the slave felt that the identity of the slave and maid was unusual, so he guessed that her loss was also in the little lady's plan. ”

Du Baozhu hooked the corners of his lips at this time, and nodded at Wen Xi's eyebrows: "You are clever." ”

"You know about this, if anyone asks, they will say that the slave is lost, and when they go back, they will look for it."

As soon as Wen Xi saw Du Baozhu's smile, he knew that he had guessed correctly, and his heart that had been hanging high finally landed peacefully, and he hurriedly saluted Du Baozhu: "Slave obeys." ”

Tasting Le, who was kneeling on the ground, was still at a loss, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle was played between the little lady and Wen Xi.

Seeing her dazed appearance, Du Baozhu was faintly amused in his heart, raised his eyes and glanced at Wen Xi: "This matter will be left to you to deal with." ”

Wen Xi took the order and left with the taste, leaving Du Baozhu to sit alone in front of the makeup mirror.

She couldn't help but take out the purse containing the jade and look at it, before stuffing it back into the bottom layer of the makeup box and hiding it.

It's not the time when she first came, and if she wants to find someone to replace Song Wen's identity, it won't be impossible. After all, the two crowheads are the people she has been serving, and it is not a good thing to keep it hidden, and this 'fugitive slave' incident has become a touchstone for her to test the skills of the two maidservants.

Now it seems that Wen Xi's performance is remarkable, and she actually guessed Song Wen's possible identity with her words, not only kept her secret, but also suppressed the taste of her intestines. Du Baozhu's eyes flashed with satisfaction, and she decided to hand over some tasks that were inconvenient for her to come forward.

"Knock knock", Du Baozhu just put away the makeup box, and the voice of the deer sounded outside the door: "Little lady, the things have been packed up, but are you about to leave?" ”

"Deer chirp." Du Baozhu shouted.

The voice outside the door paused: "The servant is here." ”

Du Baozhu touched the mechanism tied to his arm, and said softly: "Come in, I have something to say to you." ”

Wen Xi vaguely guessed the whole picture just by just a few words, how much did Shouwang Eyeliner, who had been following her, know about this matter?

Now that she is far away from Chang'an City, she has already made up her mind to deal with all the hidden dangers that should be disposed of, anyway, now that the army is in chaos, it is not uncommon to lose one or two minions.

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Du Baozhu's clear and pure eyes, the last time she missed the opportunity to kill Tian Lingzi, it caused a lot of trouble, and this kind of thing will never happen again.

Lu Ming didn't know what the owner of the house was thinking, so when he heard the call, he pushed the door and walked in.

Du Baozhu's white fingertips tapped on the makeup box: "Just now, Wen Xi and Taste Le came to report that my newly bought slave was lost, do you know where she went?" ”

Lu Ming's face changed, and he knelt down on one knee: "I don't know." ”

Du Baozhu's fingertips are as smooth as shells, and they look good when they knock on the dark red wooden box. She struck very slowly, each time it seemed to hit Luming's heartbeat: "Do you not know, or do you dare not know?" ”

The little girl's voice had not yet grown, with a soft childishness, but no one could ignore the power of her words.

Lu Ming's face became more and more pale, and he lowered his head and said tamely: "Little lady, the servant has not mentioned your new slave to Your Highness. ”

This is to admit that he guessed that Song Wen's identity was different. Du Baozhu slowly withdrew his fingers, and instead used the handle of the fan to support Lu Ming's chin: "How do I know if you are telling the truth or a lie?" ”

At this moment, Lu Ming actually had the illusion of facing King Shou, and swallowed his saliva with difficulty: "The servant is already your minion, and you are the master." ”

Du Baozhu's eyes blinked, not knowing whether to buy it or not.

Just when Lu Ming's ears were almost filled with the sound of heartbeat, she spoke softly and lightly: "It doesn't matter who you are, what matters is who can save your life." ”

"Li Jie sent you here to get news from me, if something happens to me, you will be useless. A spy who has been exposed to the truth, even if he returns to his master, will be killed because he knows too many secrets. Do you know what to choose? ”

When Li Jie gave Lu Ming to Du Baozhu, Du Baozhu strongly expressed his dissatisfaction. However, in the end, he was forced by Li Jie's power to accept Lu Ming's surveillance.

Lu Ming originally thought that the little lady had accepted her fate, but she didn't expect that the little lady would suddenly break the matter at this time and force him to make a choice. I couldn't help but feel cold behind him, and I actually read a trace of killing intent from this delicate and tender little lady, as if once he chose the wrong one, what was waiting for him was death.

His eyes flashed with Hefeng's bare ears and the gaze of His Royal Highness King Shou, Yin Owl, and finally lowered his head and surrendered to this fragrant and soft little lady: "The servants all act according to the orders of the little lady." ”

"That's for the best." Du Baozhu smiled and said, "If this matter is not reported, Li Jie will inevitably suspect you." Tell him that I did save a girl, and that I had taken her out of the city under the guise of a maidservant. But because I've been guarding against you, you don't have a chance to find out the girl's identity, only that she is from Pingkangfang. ”
