Chapter 198: Defeat
I don't know how long it took, Bai Tang woke up slowly.
Looking at the roof and furniture in front of me, I was still in the same room. He sat up with his hands in a daze, not wanting to touch something soft. The familiar touch made him look sideways in shock, and he rolled from the bed to the ground with a thud!
On his bed, there is a ** delicate girl asleep! It's not Cheng Xuefeng's sister-in-law Cheng Xuehan, who is it?
Bai Tang couldn't believe his eyes, and in just a moment, he guessed the cause and effect. couldn't help but scolded angrily: "Zhang Bozhong, you are simply inferior to an animal!" β
He ran to the window, and sure enough, it was all locked. They shouted loudly, but no one responded.
As for Cheng Xuefeng, he is next door - Bai Tang suddenly thought of the decanting soup he drank, and Xuefeng must have been tricked!
Unless Xu San and them come back early - impossible! Bai Tang was extremely frightened, Zhang Bozhong worked hard to set this trap, and it was impossible for people to destroy it!
What to do?! It was probably because of excessive tension, Bai Tang's stomach was aching faintly, and cold sweat seeped out of his forehead one by one.
At this time, a certain room in the Rose Courtyard was already in chaos.
"Where's Miss? What about our young ladyβ" Xue Han's maids Yi Cui and Lu Qiao were terrified. They were also drowsy somehow, and when they woke up, the young lady who had been sobering up in bed was gone.
This is not a small surprise!
"Don't alarm others, go find Childe first!" Yi Cui was about to go out, but at the door she saw the British princess, Miss's fiancΓ© Zhang Bozhong. He was followed by two maids and a few retinues. At first glance, there were as many as seven or eight people. In an instant, her face turned pale, and her heart was horrified!
"Miss Yicui." Bo Zhong said, "There are people in the forest who have encountered snakes, and the soldiers of the Guogong Mansion are struggling to chase and kill. After all, this place is dangerous, and my mother was about to go home, and when she saw that Miss's carriage and horses were still waiting outside, she sent me over to ask Miss to accompany her. β
The British duchess is also well-intentioned and wants to escort the Cheng family with her own people.
Yi Cui froze, smiled bitterly and saluted: "Thank you for reminding the prince." My girl just drank too much. The slave is about to go to find her son and prepare to set off. I'm afraid it will be delayed for a while, and I won't bother my wife and son. β
Bo Zhong shook his head and smiled: "Why should the girl be polite? He raised his eyelids, "I'll go with you to find Xue Feng." β
Yi Cui hurriedly said: "The prince is polite. I-"
"Let's go." Bo Zhong turned around undoubtedly and strode towards the Mulan Courtyard across the wall.
Yi Cui almost fainted. She bit her red lip and bled blood, her legs trembled, and she followed Zhang Bozhong and his party to the quiet Mulan Courtyard.
Bo Zhong shouted loudly: "Brother Cheng is here? β
There was silence in the courtyard.
Yi Cui saw that no one responded, and his heart, which had been dead once, came back to life. Excited. It's great that the eldest prince is not here!
"Probably the son and the third master are out together, the slaves and maids should wait-"
Bo Zhong shook his head and said, "No." I saw him come back with Lian Baitang with my own eyes. He walked straight to the east wing.
There are four rooms in Mulan Courtyard, and the first two are empty. To the third room, the door was locked.
Bo Zhong knocked on the door vigorously and called, "Brother Cheng! Brother Cheng! β
Suddenly, there was a soft sound of toms in the room. Everyone's faces changed slightly: Is there someone in the house?
Bo Zhong took a few steps back, kicked the door hard with his legs, and when he touched it, the door broke, and he ran into the house quickly, exclaiming, "Brother Cheng, what's wrong?" β
Xue Feng had a splitting headache and looked at them blankly: "I-where am I?" β
Bo Zhong breathed a sigh of relief and quipped: "It seems that my deer antler wine today is full of energy." β
Xue Feng shook his head: "I obviously don't drink much." "A young man with a lot of blood and energy, who would dare to drink that thing too much?
Seeing this, Yi Cui hurriedly poured a cup of herbal tea with him: "Son, let's drink a glass of water first." β
Xue Feng glanced at her, frowned and asked, "Why are you here?" What about Miss? β
Yi Cui pursed her lips and said with an idea: "Miss drank too much today. The slave maid came to ask the son, why don't you rest for one night and then leave? β
Xue Feng also felt that he didn't have much strength on his body, and was about to nod, but he heard Bo Zhong say: "I won't let you go on weekdays." But today there was a snake plague. I dare not keep you. β
When Xue Feng heard this, his heart was excited, and he nodded and said, "The prince is thoughtful. β
Yi Cui was so anxious that she almost fainted, and said in a trembling voice: "Childe-"
At that moment, there was some movement in the next room. It seemed to be the sound of a woman moaning and struggling. Everyone was slightly stunned for a while: this is a courtyard for entertaining male dependents, how can there be female guests?
Yi Cui has been serving Xue Han since she was a child, and she is most familiar with her voice and figure. At this time, I heard the faint voice, and my legs were so weak that I could barely hold it for a while: no, it can't be. How could Miss be here?
Who is it, who is the lady who wants to kill her!
Bozhong's face changed slightly: "Brother Cheng, who lives next door?" β
Xue Feng was also stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Are the third master and Dingguo Gong back?" β
Bo Zhong shook his head.
Therefore, the one staying in the next room can only be - Lian Baitang!
Xue Feng's still somewhat dazed head suddenly sobered up.
In Lian Baitang's house, there is a girl? It's-
Bo Zhong's face slowly sank: "Maybe the young lady of which family went to the wrong door." He called the two maids who followed him and said, "You are the people by your mother's side, and the affairs of your family will be left to you." β
The two maids glanced at each other: obviously they came to pick up Miss Cheng. I don't want to encounter this kind of ugly thing. Then he bowed down and received the order.
Yi Cui dragged two legs that were as heavy as lead and vinegar and involuntarily followed behind them. There was only one thought in my mind: if Miss had an accident, she would be killed!
Zhang Bozhong sat beside Xue Feng, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After a while, he didn't hear the expected exclamations and cries, but instead heard the surprise call of Yi Cui's girl: "Miss, why are you here here!" β
Is Yi Cui crazy? Cheng Xuehan and Lian Baitang were in the same room, and they were caught by their mother's people, can she still laugh?
Xue Feng stood up suddenly, and his face changed greatly: "Is it Xue Han?" "This is no small surprise. If Lian Baitang and Xue Han live in the same house - it will be a shocking disaster! He didn't dare to imagine the terrible consequences, and immediately stumbled into the next room with a blue face.
Zhang Bozhong followed behind him unhurriedly.
Hey, that's weird. The two maids of the mother only looked surprised, but there was no disgust. Bo Zhong was uneasy in his heart, he shouldn't have been.
His gaze quickly swept over the people in the room, and his body suddenly froze: What's the matter? What about practicing Baitang?!
His pride, which was full of pride, immediately turned into fear, and ice water was poured from his head to the bottom!
Impossible, impossible! He personally picked up the sleeping Bai Tang and sent it to Xue Han's side, and locked the doors and windows with his own hands! Unless he can penetrate the walls and the ground, there is no way he can escape this room!
Cheng Xuehan was half-lying on the bed. She was draped in a thin blanket and covered tightly from her head and neck down. It's impossible to hide another person in a fairly flat bed.
But the room was so big, and the only place to hide people was under the bed and the wardrobe - he took a breath and secretly untied the jade pendant on his belt and landed on the ground. When he bent down to pick it up, he glanced at the bottom of the bed, but there was no one.
"It's cold at night in the mountains, I'll get a thin quilt for Miss." As he spoke, he walked to the closet and opened the door with trembling hands.
Zhang Bozhong looked at the empty wardrobe, and his heart and pupils shrank at the same time. Hell yes!
He took out a blanket at random and handed it to Yi Cui, and for a moment, he realized that there was a strange girl in the house?
Just beside Xue Han, there was a young woman sitting at the end of the bed. Dressed in a light purple gauze skirt, her black hair is pulled into the simplest single screw bun, her eyebrows are curved like the moon, and her cherry lips are full. Under the dim light, her eyes could not be seen clearly with a half-hanging face, and she could only see her slender and graceful eyeliner at the corners of her eyes to form a charming shallow arc that seemed to be absent, and a small piece of red eyeshadow blurred at the corners of her eyes.
