Chapter 189: Windfall from the Sky
When Xia Chumo woke up in a daze, it was already the next day, and she couldn't remember when she fell asleep last night.
When she got up, Xia Chutao found that she had a thick layer of bedding on her body, and she didn't know who hugged all the bedding on her bed.
Xia Chutao's heart was a little uneasy, she really shouldn't sleep in this kind of thing, and she didn't know if the carbon fire in the house was too much, Xia Chutao stood and felt a slight headache.
"Little lady, are you awake?"
Qiaoyun, who was guarding outside the tent, heard Xia Chutao's movements, and opened the layers of curtains and came in.
"How did I fall asleep yesterday?"
Qiao Yun smiled and put a basin of hot water for washing on the shelf on the side.
"I heard Bizhu say yes, during this time, Xiaoniang has been worrying about those who have the epidemic, and she has been taking care of her day and night, and she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow yesterday."
Xia Chutao was a little in a trance, and even a little bit couldn't come back to her senses after hearing such words.
"I also want to say that I will wait until Cuijuan's news before I sleep...... Why did you fall asleep. β
Looking at Xia Chutao's worried appearance, Qiaoyun really didn't want her to worry so much about these things.
"Little lady, you've had enough things lately, you should have a good rest...... Besides, you are pregnant, and your body and bones can't stand it like this. β
At the beginning of the summer, Tao lifted the quilt and got out of bed, a little helpless.
"I don't want to rest, but there have been so many things lately that I haven't even been given a chance to catch my breath. This thing, that thing, piled up on me one by one, and it was a luxury to want to take a break. β
Qiaoyun has been staying by Xia Chutao's side, and she has naturally seen the hard work during this time.
"That's why the maid said that she was afraid that the little lady would burn her body, so the maid came to wash the little lady."
Xia Chutao was just sitting in front of the dresser, looking at herself with a somewhat haggard face in the bronze mirror, and she also felt that she was really tired for this period of time.
Just as Xia Chutao was thinking this, Bizhu was panting into the account, her face was as pale as paper, and her forehead was covered with dense fine sweat.
"Little lady...... Cuijuan found it. β
Bizhu's voice was quite panicked when she said this, Xia Chutao knew about it just by listening to her tone, and she was afraid that it was not a good thing.
"Where?"
Qiaoyun saw that Xia Chutao didn't speak, so he asked first.
"In ...... ...... in a well in the old yard before"
Xia Chutao's heart chuckled, she had expected it in her heart before, but she didn't expect that what she was most afraid of still happened.
"It's really ...... in the well"
Xia Chutao muttered a little distractedly, and now she still broke out in a cold sweat when she thought about it.
Yin Niang, this woman, is really terrifying......
Xia Chutao turned around and asked.
"Did someone catch it in the well, and did you have any obvious wounds on your body?"
Bizhu was originally frightened by this matter, and when she heard the news, she almost didn't throw out the guy in her hand, and after thinking about it, she hurried back to tell Xia Chutao that it was important.
But even so, Bizhu's head was still a mess, she had to think about it carefully, this is what she said to Xia Chutao,
"The person has not been fished out yet, and it is said that the well water has frozen and has not been fished out...... But people look blackened......"
At the beginning of summer, Momo couldn't imagine what the scene was like under the well, and if it was all blackened like this in such a winter, I am afraid that it would have been abandoned for a while.
'M afraid...... In the period when Xia Chutao just left the General's Mansion, Yin Niang had already attacked Cuijuan.
Thinking of this, Xia Chutao couldn't bear the nausea in her heart at all, and her face was bloodless for a while, so she directly held on to the table of the dresser and retched.
"Little lady!"
Qiaoyun on the side was shocked, Xia Chutao's reaction was really scary, and he hurriedly picked up the basin on the side and handed it to Xia Chutao.
She anxiously looked at Xia Chutao, who kept retching, and raised her hand to give Xia Chutao a good breath, but she still couldn't help glaring at Bizhu, who was at a loss.
"What are you doing when you talk to your little lady about this early in the morning, just saying it is disgusting. Xiao Niang has been annoyed enough in her heart recently, don't you think you haven't added enough blockage to Xiao Niang? β
Bizhu was speechless for a while, and she didn't know what to say for a while when she was blamed by Qiaoyun like this. But in his heart, he was extremely aggrieved, and this matter was originally what Xia Chutao told him to stare at.
It was Xia Chutao who said this, and she brought Xia Chutao back as soon as she received the news.
"Forget it, there's no need to blame Bizhu, she just listened to me."
Xia Chutao felt that such a person was really disgusting, just thinking of Yin Niang's face Xia Chutao felt disgusting, it was really unbearable.
"Let people find a way to fish out Cuijuan, every maid in this house also has someone's family, no matter how you do, you have to give someone an explanation."
"I died in the General's Mansion like this, and what others don't know thinks that the General's Mansion eats people, and I always don't see some people."
She stretched out her hand, and Qiaoyun on the side immediately brought Xia Chutao a cup of hot tea, and Xia Chutao took it and rinsed her mouth.
She finally recovered, but her face was still pale.
She just raised her head, and saw Shoutian who came in in a hurry, Xia Chutao was stunned, what happened to her face so ugly early in the morning.
Xia Chutao covered her chest, she really felt that she couldn't take a breath, and she didn't know what was going on at this time.
"Little lady...... Someone from the palace has come in, and they have already come in from the main entrance. β
Looking at Shoutian's panting appearance, obviously rushing back from outside in a hurry, Xia Chutao was very puzzled, and didn't know what he meant by saying that someone was coming from the palace.
"What, you calm down your breath first, and then you speak, what kind of palace is there, say something that the little lady can understand."
Shoutian was angry for a while, and then he opened his mouth and continued,
"When I was in the front yard just now, I saw people from the palace, and the battle was huge, as if they came with a holy decree."
"Divine decree?"
Xia Chutao didn't know what kind of holy decree would come at this time, and he didn't think that this holy decree had anything to do with him.
"As soon as the holy decree arrives, everyone needs to go out and kneel to listen, little lady, you better pack up and go out and prepare to receive the holy decree."
At the beginning of the summer, Tao was mentioned by Shoutian, but he also remembered that he really should do this, although he had just woken up, but there was no way, and there was no reason for the saint to be unwelcome.
Xia Chutao nodded,
"Got it, you go down, I'll clean up and go out to receive the holy decree immediately."
Xia Chutao hurriedly cleaned up and then came to the front hall, only to see that he had already fallen to his knees. And the person standing in the courtyard holding the holy decree is really from the palace, and it is estimated that he is still a big eunuch looking at the clothes.
Xia Chutao cautiously entered the ranks with Bizhu and Qiaoyun, and then knelt down beside Man Chun.
She had just knelt down when the eunuch with the decree spoke.
"Oh, this lord is finally here, so let's read the holy decree."
Xia Chu Tao was stunned, this holy decree was given to himself?
Just when she felt confused and in the clouds, she heard Man Chun beside her chuckle,
"Listen carefully, it seems that the emperor wants to praise you?"
Xia Chutao was even more puzzled when she heard Man Chun say this, what was there about her worthy of such fanfare from the emperor? He also sent eunuchs to read the decree.
"Xia's orderβ"
Xia Chutao heard the eunuch shouting like this, and hurriedly concentrated his attention from the new, and immediately lowered his head.
Listen respectfully to the Divine Decree.
She only heard the eunuch's shrill voice coming slowly,
"The common people of Xia, Shuwan are gentle, diligent and supple, Yonghe pure, gentle temperament, helping the world for the people, in order to save thousands of people in the capital, not afraid of hardship, and saving all the people in dire straits. I am pleased that he is obedient and virtuous, and cares about the world, and specially gives a pair of coral Dongzhu Jin Chuan, a phoenix jade agate step shake, three Xuanyue brocade fox skins, and a bounty of 200,000 gold.
Originally, Xia Chutao didn't have anything to listen to, but when she heard the eunuch say 200,000 gold, Xia Chutao's eyes lit up.
At the beginning of summer, Tao felt a burst of joy in his heart: Lie in the groove...... 200,000 gold!
It's been posted!
"A windfall from the sky, little Peach's eyes are about to turn into money."
"Hahaha, little peach, the standard eyes are open to money."
"This emperor is too generous, isn't he?"
Xia Chutao originally did this to pray for the child in her belly, how did she know that she would be able to get such a benefit from the emperor?
At the beginning of the summer, Tao really felt that she was unintentionally planting willows and willows, and such a sum of money was enough to buy her a lot of things.
Before this thing was received, Xia Chutao was already thinking about how to spend the money in his heart. It's been busy all this time, and there are a lot of things that I haven't bought at the beginning of summer.
It's good now, with such a large amount of money, Xia Chutao feels that she can buy a lot of clothes and jewelry.
"Xia Xiaoniang, Xia Xiaoniang."
Just when Xia Chutao was thinking like this in his heart, he was woken up by the full spring beside him. Man Chun couldn't help but hit Xia Chutao hard with his elbow, and Xia Chutao came back to his senses.
She looked up and saw that the eunuch had been standing there holding the holy decree for a long time, so she hurriedly knelt forward and respectfully took the holy decree from the eunuch's hand.
"Concubine, thank you, Lord Longen."
Facing Xia Chutao's knowledge, the eunuch nodded with obvious satisfaction.
"Xia, this kind of honor is not something that ordinary people have, so cherish it."
