Chapter 222: The Hidden Guy
Cheng Xi kept saying thank you to the guard, and slowly carried a bucket of hot water into the house and went to the door.
As soon as Cheng Xi closed the door, Xu Sanlang got up from the soft collapse and came over to help Cheng Xi lift the water to the side of the washstand, Cheng Xi took a deep breath, raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
Xu Sanlang stretched out his hand to comb the broken hair on Cheng Xi's forehead that was stuck with sweat, and said very distressedly, "Thank you for your hard work." ”
Cheng Xi said while holding the water, "It's all because you raised me squeamish during this time, and I didn't do any less of these things at home before, and I didn't feel so tired." ”
Xu Sanlang took the wooden water scoop in Cheng Xi's hand and responded, "You go over there and rest for a while, I'll come." ”
Cheng Xi let go of his hand and responded with a smile, "Look at it, it's here again, don't let me do anything." ”
Xu Sanlang made a silent gesture for Cheng Xi, and Cheng Xi remembered that there were guards outside, but they couldn't hear it.
Cheng Xi's face was made by Ah Yi with a potion, and a specific potion was needed to remove it and change it back to his original face, so Cheng Xi didn't have to worry about the makeup on his face, he should wash his face and wash his face, and it wouldn't fall off, but it saved trouble.
After the two of them washed up a little, Cheng Xi went over and nested on the edge of the soft collapse, and asked, "Do ordinary little guys sleep here?" ”
Xu Sanlang hugged Cheng Xi directly in the past, and Cheng Xi almost shouted, but fortunately covered his mouth in time, and whispered in Xu Sanlang's arms, "What are you doing, scared me to death." ”
Xu Sanlang left the couch while holding Cheng Xi and went to the bed, and said, "You are not a little girl, what kind of couch do you sleep on." ”
After speaking, he had already carried Cheng Xi to the bedside, let Cheng Xi put him on the bed, and he also turned over to the bed, lay outside, and hugged Cheng Xi tightly in his arms.
On such a hot day, Cheng Xi was hugged by Xu Sanlang like this, and he was still wearing the coarse cloth clothes of the little girl, which was slightly hot, so he struggled out of Xu Sanlang's arms and complained, "It's hot." ”
But Xu Saburo stretched out his hand again, pulled Cheng Xi into his arms, and then whispered in Cheng Xi's ear, "Xi'er, I miss you." ”
Cheng Xi heard Xu Sanlang's sudden love words, he was slightly stunned, and he didn't struggle anymore for a while, Xu Saburo still hugged him, and after a while, he struggled again and said, "But I'm so hot, and this dress is uncomfortable to wear, you let me take off my clothes first." ”
Xu Sanlang reacted at this time, Cheng Xi was still wearing a little girl's coarse linen clothes, reached out to help, helped Cheng Xi take off the coarse linen clothes together, and wore a white undershirt, before he hugged Cheng Xi again and lay down, kissed Cheng Xi on the forehead, and said softly, "Sleep, I'll call you tomorrow morning." ”
Cheng Xi obediently nestled in Xu Sanlang's arms, smelling the reassuring familiar smell, and whispered, "With such a face, you can really go down at any time." ”
After speaking, he closed his eyes, found a comfortable position in Xu Sanlang's arms, and quickly entered the dreamland.
These days, I am worried about Xu Sanlang, even if I am tired, I can't sleep well, and now lying in Xu Saburo's arms, even if I am still in danger, I can finally sleep peacefully.
The next day, Cheng Xi was woken up by Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi slept hazy and didn't know the east, west, north and south, raised his head and looked at Xu Sanlang with wide eyes and doubts.
Xu Sanlang looked at the little confusion in front of him, couldn't help but lowered his head and kissed Cheng Xi's eyes, and whispered, "It's time for you to get up, and then clean up for me, after breakfast, it's time for us to go." ”
Cheng Xi finally reacted to where this was, and woke up from Xu Sanlang's arms, she thought it was in the small courtyard of Cloud City.
In and out, Cheng Xi will greet the guards at the door with a smile and politely, and the two brothers are also very smooth, it may be that Cheng Xi's smile is very infectious, plus Cheng Xi has a well-behaved mouth at a young age, and the two guards treat him well, and they will talk to him a few words from time to time.
And Cheng Xi had a good relationship with the guards at the door, so that the guards would lower their guard against him, so as not to leak any flaws with Xu Saburo.
After finishing his work in the morning, he 'served' Xu Sanlang and had breakfast, so he was helped by the guards at the door and was still 'poisoned'
Xu Saburo, who was sore and weak, got into the carriage that was already waiting outside.
Cheng Xi stood in front of the carriage, originally the little guy was going to follow the carriage, Xu Sanlang got into the carriage, and said before, "Xiao Xizi, the carriage comes up to serve." ”
Cheng Xi, who is alias Xiao Xizi, glanced at the guard beside him, and saw that the guard nodded in response, so he climbed into the carriage and lifted the curtain and entered the carriage.
After entering the carriage, Cheng Xi no longer pretended to be submissive, and leaned on the back of the carriage, and secretly looked out from the small window in the back, and saw that the prisoner cars behind were full of people, and they were very embarrassed to sit in the prisoner car, as if they were all the guards brought by Xu Sanlang.
There are also a lot of officers and soldiers escorting them, and some of them are very familiar, Cheng Xi tilted his head and thought about it, and suddenly remembered where he had seen these people, there were many guards and soldiers here, and they were all masters who went to Lihua Village to arrest them before.
After a general observation, Cheng Xi came to Xu Sanlang's side and whispered to Xu Sanlang, "Looking at this, the Xue family has put a lot of effort into escorting you to the capital to get married." ”
Xu Sanlang reluctantly corrected, "What escorted me to the capital to get married, they kidnapped." ”
Cheng Xi hurriedly responded, "Yes, yes, it's kidnapping, don't pull me, be quiet, be careful of being discovered outside." ”
After speaking, Cheng Xi also sat in the carriage in a proper manner, no longer hiding in the gap of the carriage and peeking outside.
Because you have to pay attention at all times to ensure that your identity is not exposed, Xu Sanlang must also pay attention not to show abnormality, this way is very cautious, and it is very boring, sometimes Cheng Xi boredly pulls Xu Sanlang's hair to count how many hairs, so stop and go, walk for almost half a month, and finally walk almost half the way, Cheng Xi can't help but sigh, this capital is really not ordinary.
There is another reason for being so slow, there are several prisoner cars escorted, so they go slowly, Cheng Xi listened to Xu Sanlang's introduction, they used to ride horses, and it was almost ten days away.
Along the way, Xu Sanlang's treatment was very good, food and accommodation were the best, and sure enough, it was the treatment of the future son-in-law of the Xue family, and Cheng Xi was not wronged much.
On the way to the kitchen that night, Cheng Xi met the original little guy, and he was transferred to serve next to Aunt Ying, and he met from time to time before, because Cheng Xi was enthusiastic and sensible, but he would greet him, but at this time, the little guy called Cheng Xi, and his face was not too good and said, "Little Xizi, Aunt Ying asked you to go over." ”
Cheng Xi paused, of course she knew who Aunt Ying was in the mouth of the little girl, and she only suddenly asked her to go over and do something, Cheng Xi felt that if it wasn't for the last resort, that person shouldn't have wanted to see her very much, although she helped her before, it was also a little unexpected for her.
The little guy saw that Cheng Xi was still standing in place, so he snorted slightly impatiently, "When my words came, you deserve to be blamed by the master, obviously stupid and not a little clever, and I don't know how to recruit the master to like it, hum." ”
Cheng Xi finally came back to his senses, saw that the little guy in front of him had gone away, and hurriedly followed.
When he arrived at the door of a guest room on the other side of the inn, the little maid knocked on the door quietly and said inside, "Master, Xiao Xizi has brought it." ”
An indifferent female voice came from inside, "Let him in." ”
Cheng Xi stood at the door in a daze, still a little unsure of how to get along with the person inside, the little guy saw that Cheng Xi didn't move for a long time, frowned and pushed Cheng Xi, and urged in a low voice, "Why are you stunned, didn't you hear the master let you in?" ”
In the end, Cheng Xi pushed the door in, and as soon as Cheng Xi stepped into the door, before he could see the people inside, he heard an indifferent female voice say, "Close the door." ”
Cheng Xi was even more worried in her heart, what did she want to tell herself? What attitude should I use to face her?
When Cheng Xi closed the door and turned around, he looked at the young woman sitting at the table, and just when he didn't know what to say, a familiar figure appeared behind the screen, it was actually Zhao Yu.
Cheng Xi opened his mouth slightly in surprise, but because there were still people at the door, he still stopped his mouth first, went to Zhao Yu's side, and took Zhao Yu's hand before asking in a low voice, "Why are you here?" ”
Zhao Yu looked at Cheng Xi, and then at the young woman who was sitting silently drinking tea, her expression was a little complicated, and she wanted to ask, but she didn't know how to speak, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Cheng Xi was also worried that Zhao Yuzhen would ask, if he did, he wouldn't know how to answer her, so he touched his nose in embarrassment, and simply asked again, "Yu'er, why are you here?" ”
Zhao Yu saw the embarrassment in Cheng Xi's eyes, and didn't ask, and answered, "Ge Shu asked me to come, are you okay?" She asked me to tell you, who ...... that."
Zhao Yu glanced at the young woman who was still drinking tea at the table, and felt that it was really difficult to say this in front of people, but it was also rude to bite her ears in front of people, and she really couldn't talk about it.
The young woman also seemed to see the embarrassment of the two, and said softly, "You don't have to worry about me. The tone was still so indifferent, as if nothing could startle the slightest wave on her face, Cheng Xi sometimes felt that the panicked person she saw on the boat was not her own delusion.
Zhao Yu finally came to Cheng Xi's ear, bit his ear with Cheng Xi, and muttered to Cheng Xi for a while, Cheng Xi probably understood, nodded his head, and asked, "How did you get in?" ”
Zhao Yu whispered, "In the name of visiting Aunt Ying, Ge Shu said that I would come to see her and tell her to find you, but I didn't expect it to be really possible." ”
As soon as Aunt Ying was mentioned, Cheng Xi didn't know how to answer, and the two of them fell silent for a while, and the young woman spoke indifferently again, and said a little loudly, "Xiao Xizi, you go down first, and serve the nobles well." ”
Cheng Xi glanced at Zhao Yu, then bowed his head and responded, "Yes, the little one will retire." ”
