Chapter 66: In the same room
"Rest early, we'll talk about it tomorrow." Qi Shu hid in the quilt and prepared to sleep.
But apparently, Zhao Huanting didn't let her go so easily.
"Wait a minute, my hair hasn't dried yet, so I'll have a headache tomorrow if I just rest." Zhao Huanting got up and picked up the handkerchief that Qi Shu had just brought over, ready to wipe Qi Shu's hair.
Qi Shu shook his head and signaled that he didn't want to wipe it, but he was picked up by Zhao Huanting.
I don't know how long my hair has been fiddled, Qi Shu lay on the bed and let Zhao Huanting knead and flatten, she also accepted her fate, at this time she didn't even have the strength to move, I really admired that she could still move.
Zhao Huanting's fingers grabbed the handkerchief and rubbed it very gently on Qi Shu's head, like a caress between lovers, Zhao Huanting was a little reluctant to feel Qi Shu's hair was very silky.
I don't know how long it took before Zhao Huanting let go of Qi Shu and put her on the bed, looked down at her and said gently, "It's done." ”
Qi Shu, who was lying down, naturally turned over, and then replied in a daze: "Okay?" Then sleep, sleep. ”
"Hmm." Zhao Huanting answered in a low voice, then put the handkerchief next to her and lay down.
About half an hour later, he turned around, turned his back to Qi Shu, and pillowed his arms to sleep.
How many quarters of an hour has passed? He turned around again, lay flat and stared at the beams, the dim candlelight occasionally blowing up the core and shaking it twice.
About an hour? He turned around again, Zhao Huanting felt that she shouldn't have slept well tonight, why didn't she feel sleepy at all?
It's really strange, why is it still so energetic after a day of running.
Also, why did the woman in front of him look defenseless, wasn't he worried that he was a bad person? I don't know if my fingers hurt now, how does Mozhu take care of her? I'm going to have to talk about her when I go back.
Facing the direction of Qi Shu, shallow breathing sprayed over, with the fragrance of bamboo, as if it was bamboo incense, by the way, there are a lot of bamboos planted in her yard, but I haven't seen a lot of flowers, it seems that she should be very fond of bamboo.
After meeting so many times, Zhao Huanting didn't seem to have seen Qi Shu's appearance carefully, but now that her face was close in front of her, she couldn't help but look at it carefully.
He remembered that her eyes were very bright, it was a small round face with apricot eyes, a beautiful face and handsome eyebrows, and the tear mole under the corner of her eye was a little concerning, Zhao Huanting couldn't help but stretch out her finger to touch Qi Shu's mole, and just when she was about to touch it, she gave up and took it back, he was afraid of waking up Qi Shu.
The woman was a little unexpected.
When she got acquainted, Zhao Huanting felt that she was a woman who was raised in the boudoir and didn't listen to anything outside the window, and when she was forced to come to the tavern during the Yuan Festival, she felt simple and easy to deceive when she got along.
But now I think she also has a bit of talent and temperament, and she is not bad.
Just stared at her, and finally couldn't help but reach out and brush her hair between her sideburns, and then closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Her breath smelled very good, which made Zhao Huanting feel very stable and reliable, and the original trace of charming thoughts that had risen was also gone, leaving only the slow warmth and comfort.
If you could leave everything behind and sleep with the woman in front of you at night and work hard during the day, would you be happy?
Before falling into a dark sleep, such a question floated through Zhao Huanting's head.
Naturally, the green orange and Mozhu had already turned off the lights early and fell asleep, but that is, the green orange fell asleep, and Mozhu was not sleepy.
Thinking carefully about what happened today, I felt that it was a bit too coincidental.
Especially when he came back at night, Mo Zhu's first reaction was the bureau designed by his own master, so as to gain Qi Shu's trust, but after thinking about it, the master has always acted bloodlessly, so there is no need to sacrifice the lives of several people to do this game, unless someone else wants to harm Qi Shu.
Presumably Qi Shu himself is also very confused by now, and he will definitely not offend anyone if he acts carefully?
But if she analyzes it, the probability of Mo Zhujue will be attributed to that Princess Ji Xue.
On the day of the tea party, they met in the restaurant, although that Ji Xue was lively and cute on the surface, no one knew what she looked like behind the scenes, especially Mo Zhu had already checked Ji Xue's details, and knew that she was a person who would be revenged, and it was not easy to mess with. In particular, she fell in love with Ning Ze, and Mo Zhu was even more sure that if she wanted to make a move against Qi Shu, Ji Xue would be the first one.
Everything else is a little bit of a fight, and it's nothing.
It's a little difficult for a county to fight with the princess, and if that King of Guanghan is to die to protect Qi Shu, then it's really uncertain. The master also said that Ning Ze, the king of Guanghan, was definitely hidden.
Green orange fell asleep and put her legs on Mo Zhu's body, which made Mo Zhu very uncomfortable and hurriedly pushed her away, this girl, usually unreliable, sleeps poorly, I really don't know how Miss usually endures her, it's really unreliable.
Mo Zhu, who had finished slandering in her heart, was suddenly startled, what was she thinking? Obviously, her master is a princess, how can she treat Qi Shu as her own master? Wake up! Wake up! Mo Zhu slapped his face violently, and then got back into the bed to get ready to sleep.
Tonight some people sleep well, and some people stay awake all night.
There was an accident on the road leading to Qi Mansion, and there were still five cold corpses lying on the road, and there were a few people who looked like attendants standing around, how could they think that the attendants had killed these people in the middle of the night.
Although they reported to the police that these people were trying to murder his master.
As soon as the officials arrived, they immediately controlled the guards, just in case they escaped or fought them, but it was clear that they were all regular people.
"Say, what's going on?" A leading man walked up to them with a lantern and carefully looked at their faces one by one, trying to make a note of what they looked like.
"My lord, it's like this, a few of us are minions of the Twilight Tavern, my master kindly escorted the eldest lady of Qi Shangshu Mansion, that is, the lord of Qingming County back to the house, the road is not safe at night, and our master is also kind, but he encountered robbers, they are all knife-wielding, and a few of us are also old rivers and lakes, there is no way, they swallowed poison by themselves." The leading attendant also made his words clear in a few words.
The few catchers with knives were stunned for a while, but when they heard that a certain big man was involved, they instantly became calm, and in a panic, they said that they would find a few people to watch the scene, and the others would take these minions back for questioning, and then wait for their boss's orders early tomorrow morning, and see what to do.
The matter has come to this point, and it can only be like this, the guards resigned themselves to follow these catchers back to the yamen, it seems that if you want to sleep peacefully tonight, you have to wait for your own master to pick you up tomorrow.
In the prosperous Shaoliang City, there is a murder case in a remote place, according to common sense, knowing that the tone is tight, it will definitely not be spread, but when it involves the level of the county lord, the interest in the matter is serious, in broad daylight, not to mention Kyoto Shaoliang, these thieves are so bold!
It's just that they don't know that the people who let these Deadpools do things have a higher status than Qi Shu, what can you do?
In any case, the incident spread quickly the next morning.
People from all walks of life are vying for word of mouth, lest they miss any fierce information, but the children are covering their mouths tightly and are not allowed to talk nonsense. If there is an ignorant child talking nonsense, the adults will warn him: "Talking nonsense, it will be caught and eaten by the sloppy man at night!" ”
However, the robbery and killing of Qi Shu was still not hidden, almost everyone knew that someone specially sent someone to take Qi Shu's life, if it wasn't for someone who happened to send the county lord back to the house to save his life, otherwise they don't know why no one was.
Look, listen, how scary!
The entire Shaoliang City once again became a sensation for this, and its liveliness was no less than Qi Shu being abandoned by her ex-fiancé's childhood sweetheart and marrying her as a bride.
Attitudes towards this vary from one country to another.
The Prince Mansion Guanghan King, including the Liuguo Mansion, sent people over to inquire about Qi Shu's situation and asked if he was okay. And the ministers headed by the Gao people are at odds with the Qi family, and there is a rumor in the family, lest the officers and soldiers suddenly come to their mansion and say that they want to be summoned for questioning.
When the old lady of Fangfu heard this, she happily ate two more bowls of rice, and cursed the person who went to rob and kill without being angry, and did not solve this demon witch scourge at one time. Fang Jie didn't care when he heard it, the school was very busy, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Qi Shu's affairs, not to mention that more things were better than less.
And the real behind-the-scenes of this operation, Princess Ji Xue, is itching teeth with hatred, the hidden guard left by the mother queen has never missed, how could it be defeated in the hands of a few miscellaneous fish? The result of this incident was absolutely unexpected.
The Hidden Guard has never been defeated, never! What kind of goods is this Qi Shu, and someone is willing to help her so far? It's unbelievable. This matter is as she expected, Qi Shu should have died without a trace, instead of living a good life now, and is ready to find someone from the government to investigate this matter thoroughly.
Although she couldn't find her head, and she had 10,000 ways to dodge it, she still had to be angry for Qi Shu's good luck, so angry that she gave Lin Chaowen a lot of slaps and directly invited the imperial doctor over.
If this matter is investigated, she will personally intervene, and she will see who has ruined her good deeds!
To sum up, the representative attitudes of each family can be seen that they are very shocked by Qi Shu's robbery, and this incident still happened in Shaoliang City, which has been calm and unwavering, and everyone is in danger all of a sudden.
And at this time, almost many people knew about it, Lord Liu Guogong's condolence gift had already been sent, and Qi Qin Qi Shangshu had just woken up, and he was sleepy without a trace.
After being dressed and freshened up by the servants, Qi Shangshu walked slowly from the inner room to the dining room.
This morning, there was an extra pair of chopsticks on the table in Qi's mansion, but Qi Qin didn't find it.
When he found out, Zhao Huanting had already sat in a position at the dinner table, Qi Shu said that he would introduce him to her family, I don't know why, when she really sat in this position, Zhao Huanting felt that there was an illusion of an ugly daughter-in-law seeing her in-laws.
"Who is this?" Qi Shangshu finally asked.
Qi Shu silently scolded in his heart, if such a big living person couldn't see it, it would really be old and dizzy.
"Father, this is a friend I made outside, named Wan Ting." Qi Shu respectfully introduced Qi Qin.
"Qi Shangshu."
"Hey, where?" It is expected that it should be Shaoliang's person, and Qi Shu doesn't know any outsiders.
"Jiangnan people."
"Oh, what do you do at home?" Qi Qin then asked.
"Doing business at home."
"Oh, business, business?" Qi Shangshu squinted and looked at Qi Shu suspiciously, it was very strange, he remembered that he wanted Qi Shu to make more friends with some powerful people, why did he bring back a businessman, did he dislike that his family did not do business enough?!
