Chapter 449: The Partition Wall Has Ears
Hearing the sound of slamming the door, Chu Lixue hooked her lips and smiled, it seems that the other party really has no patience at all, so he came to the door again so quickly.
"Master, it's so late, why don't you send her away?"
"No need, I'm not sleepy anyway, let her in, I want to see which play they sing next." Chu Lixue said lightly.
Hearing this, although Ning Xiang was surprised, he still didn't say anything, since she couldn't understand the trick here, then she had to cooperate with her master to complete the matter smoothly.
Immediately, Ning Xiang walked quickly to the door of the room, and as soon as she opened the door, the woman knelt in front of Chu Lixue, "Madam, thank you for saving me just now, in order to repay you, I can only serve you as a slave and a maid for the rest of my life." β
"Slave or slave? There's no need for that, but I have a lot of slaves and maids. Chu Lixue said lightly.
"Madam, I will make all kinds of snacks, and I will also make all kinds of seasonal snacks, Madam, you are pregnant, I used to serve the young lady in other big families, in this regard, I am very experienced, I know what to eat is best for pregnant women, Madam, you let me stay by your side to serve."
After listening to the woman's story, Chu Lixue smiled lightly, she really didn't expect that there would be such a person in the world, isn't the painstaking design just to let herself be tricked?
"I said, there are a lot of slaves and maids in my family, and I really don't need another servant girl, if you really want to repay me, then you stay away from me, even if it is a repayment to me." After speaking, Chu Lixue waved her hand and motioned for Ning Xiang to send people out.
Seeing that she didn't get any benefits from Chu Lixue's side, the woman immediately left reluctantly. After the woman left, Ning Xiang helped Chu Lixue sit on the edge of the bed, and Wanyue also walked back with a bucket of hot water.
"Master, you are pregnant, and you have been running around for another day today, so it will be more comfortable to soak your feet." Wanyue said with a smile.
"Well, thank you, Wanyue. It's really hard for you and Rean Xue to follow someone like me, if you are in the Cold Moon Palace, you will definitely be much easier. Chu Lixue said lightly.
"Master, what are you talking about, you are the most unassuming person we have ever seen, and you are also the most distressed person for your subordinates." Wanyue said with a smile.
"So, when you were in the Cold Moon Palace, the deity was not good to you?" Ye Wushuang didn't know when he was standing at the door.
As soon as these words came out, Wanyue was suddenly startled, the conscience of heaven and earth, she didn't say that the lord was not good to them, but now that the lord has misunderstood, how can she say it so that the lord doesn't mind?
"No, no, Lord, you are very good to the three subordinate brothers and sisters, and the subordinate didn't mean that just now, the subordinate meant ......"
"Okay, okay, the deity knows what you mean, the days in the Cold Moon Palace must be much more bitter than staying by Lixue's side, no one trains you to practice every day, and no one punishes you, look, you and Remnant Xue are both fat."
"Lord, my subordinates have never given up training, and every morning, my subordinates and Rean Xue have to practice martial arts together, so that we can better protect the safety of our masters, and we will not live up to the heavy responsibilities entrusted to my subordinates." Wanyue said with a smile.
"Well, I know that you are sensible, and it is not in vain that the deity loves you two so much." Ye Wushuang smiled lightly.
"Thank you, but Lord, are you really going to that Wanhualou tomorrow?" Wanyue looked at Ye Wushuang with a suspicious gaze.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get a tiger, what? Do you doubt my skills? Ye Wushuang raised his voice.
"No, no, where does this subordinate dare to doubt it, the subordinate just thinks that it is a bit of a loss of identity to let the lord go to Wanhualou." Wanyue hurriedly smiled.
"It's too noticeable to let Hanjiang go alone, and he doesn't look like a flower wine drinker." After finishing speaking, Ye Wushuang walked out of the room.
Chu Lixue couldn't help but smile secretly when she looked at the master and servant, she still remembered that when Wanyue and Canxue first came to serve her, they were a little nervous about Ye Wushuang, but they didn't expect to follow her for a few years, and as a result, they dared to joke with Ye Wushuang.
When everyone left, Ning Xiang sat on the edge of the bed and rubbed Chu Lixue's legs, thinking about it, she just couldn't understand why she saw that poor woman, why did the master say that she was sent by someone else?
Chu Lixue looked at Ning Xiang and frowned for a while, then pouted again, and then said with a smile: "Ning Xiang, if you hold back like this and don't say it, you will be suffocated, just say whatever you want to ask." β
"Master, the slave looks at that woman very pitiful, it is not easy for her to escape from the Qinglou, if it weren't for you and Lord Ye Zun, I'm afraid that woman would really be taken away by them, just now that woman came to thank you, didn't she also come to thank you? Why doesn't your master want her to serve you? She's been a pregnant woman! Ning Xiang said innocently.
Hearing Ning Xiang say this, Chu Lixue was really speechless, was this Ning Xiang protected too well by that guy who had been by her side for so long, and she was still so naΓ―ve. It seems that in the future, some things can't just be done by Wanyue and Canxue, and it's time to exercise Ningxiang.
Ning Xiang saw that Chu Lixue just shook her head, and she was even more puzzled about her thoughts, "Master, the slave is stupid, please analyze and analyze it with me." β
"Those strong men said just now, they are all from Wanhualou, and the woman also escaped from Wanhualou. Since she escaped, it means that she doesn't want others to find her, so why does she still live in this inn? And he still lives in a room with a sky-shaped number, and he lives next door to us so coincidentally? Could there be such a coincidence in the world? β
Hearing Chu Lixue say this, Ning Xiang nodded vigorously, it is indeed so. However, the woman did not know their itinerary, so how did she know which room they were staying in?
Seeing that Ning Xiang seemed to still have doubts, Chu Lixue continued: "If those strong men really went to catch that woman, they wouldn't have found other troubles, Wushuang and Hanjiang are well dressed, since they are all in the Qinglou, they must have a little bit of eyesight to see people, but they seem to have come to trouble Ye Wushuang and Hanjiang, and they simply ignored the woman, even if Ye Wushuang had interfered, but it was because they had bothered me, so why did they arrest that woman when I didn't stop it?" β
Hearing this, Ning Xiang finally opened up. The master's analysis is not wrong, the purpose of those people is to lead them to Wanchun Tower, since they already know that it is a trap, but why should they go? Doesn't that make people catch turtles in the urn?
"Master, since they deliberately want to lead us there, then why do you want to let Xiao Gongzi and Ye Gongzi go to Wanhualou? Isn't that too dangerous? β
"Ning Xiang, do you remember what Wushuang said just now? If you don't go into the tiger's den, you can get the tiger, and since they want us to go, then fulfill each other's ideas. Chu Lixue said lightly.
"Master, what did that woman mean by coming just now? Maybe I want to be by your side, right? Ning Xiang frowned.
"That's right, don't they just want to put a little work around me? I won't give them this chance, if she's not afraid of death, then I'll give her a taste of the newly developed poison one by one. Chu Lixue said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, I heard a snap, and there was a sound of something being broken in the corridor, Ning Xiang heard the sound, and hurriedly ran to open the door, and when she opened the door, she saw a broken teapot at the door, and there was no one in the corridor.
Immediately, Ning Xiang hurriedly closed the door and quickly returned to Chu Lixue's side, "Master, someone was eavesdropping outside just now, otherwise, we should not live here, it is really too dangerous." β
"It's okay, it's already the third watch, or it won't be dawn in a long time, and after dawn, we'll go out to find a house."
"Master, do you really want to rent a house? Wouldn't that be more dangerous? Ning Xiang worried.
Living in an inn, they dare to do this when people come and go, if they really rent a house outside, what if something really happens?
What's more, there is no Black Feather Army secretly protecting them now, their safety is really worrying, among this group of people, the two old ladies don't know martial arts, and the eldest lady doesn't know martial arts, plus she and her master, a pregnant woman, it's really difficult to get out of the whole body.
"Ningxiang, don't worry, have you forgotten? Didn't we rent a house to live in before? Isn't there nothing to do too? Chu Lixue smiled lightly.
"Okay, master, the slave and maid will go pack up now, and we will go find a house to live in early tomorrow morning." Ning Xiang said excitedly.
Seeing Ning Xiang packing up in such a hurry, Chu Lixue shook her head with a smile, this Ning Xiang is really in a hurry, even if she wants to rent a house, she can't say that she will rent it, at least she has to find it first. But seeing that she was busy in full swing, Chu Lixue was really embarrassed to interrupt, so she could only let her be busy by herself.
In the early morning of the next day, Han Jiang went out to look for a house, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to rent a house in this town, and he actually needed a note from Leshantang to rent a house.
Han Jiang came to the door of Leshantang and saw that many people were sitting inside, and in Leshantang, there was an old man with a melon skin hat, and there was a table in front of him, where something was written.
Han Jiang stepped in, sat next to a common person and asked softly, "This eldest sister, are you all here to rent a house?" β
The woman glanced at Han Jiang and said lightly: "No, I have grievances to sue." β
Hearing this, Han Jiang frowned slightly, shouldn't this person with grievances go to court? How did you come to this Paradise Hall? And it's not a government agency, is it? It seems that this Leshantang is not so simple.
