Chapter 188: Who Can Withstand This?
"Chirp."
In the room, Xie Zi'an, who was sleeping peacefully, slowly opened his eyes, he glanced at Qi Lele, who was sleeping sweetly in his arms, put her down lightly, and tucked the quilt for her, and then got up and walked out of the door.
Su Zhengtao was waiting in the courtyard, and there were Du Qiuliang, Su Yi and others standing beside him.
"Found?"
"Found it."
Su Zhengtao replied: "There are three people, one of whom has been lurking in the craftsman for two years, just to find out the news. The other two came in in the crowd of people delivering materials for the past two days, and they came for the young lady."
Xie Zi'an bowed: "They are also the ones who are peeping today?"
"Yes." Su Zhengtao paused and said, "Their purpose this time is to wait for an opportunity to get rid of the young lady."
Xie Zi'an's eyes became more and more cold: "Whose person?"
"The people belong to the Chen family, but the one who sent them was Tan Wenyu's wife, Chen Shujing."
Xie Zi'an said coldly: "Tan Wenyu is Concubine De's brother, even if he doesn't know who I am, he should know that I can't be provoked, so he won't be so stupid to send someone to kill him, this kind of subordinate method is more like the wife of the back house."
Su Zhengtao nodded and said, "Chen Shujing has always been merciful and ruthless, and she doesn't know how many lives have been buried in the backyard of the Tan family, and it is her consistent method to let people die unknowingly."
"What about people?"
Du Qiuliang took a step forward and said, "At Granny Du's place, I still have a breath, waiting for the eldest prince to fall."
Those who can be sent by Chen Shujing to do this kind of thing are naturally carefully cultivated by the Chen family, and they can't pry their mouths open.
"Keep it."
"Yes." Du Qiuliang asked again: "The other person, before I made a move, he took the initiative to confess his identity, and asked me to tell the eldest prince that he had nothing else to ask for, but only to continue to learn art from the craftsman. What should I do?"
"Let him go."
Du Qiuliang did not doubt him, and bowed down and responded, "Yes."
Xie Zi'an tilted his head: "Is there any news from the old lady?"
Su Yi shook his head: "No."
Su Zhengtao suddenly knelt down on one knee and said, "Today's incident is my negligence, and I ask the eldest prince to punish me!"
Su Yi also knelt on the ground: "Today I am paralyzed and careless, putting the young lady in danger without knowing it, please punish the eldest prince!"
After a long time, Xie Zi'an said, "The young lady is safe and sound, and there is no need to mention the punishment. But you and I should take caution from today's events."
"Master Xie!"
"Bring in some more men."
Su Zhengtao said yes, and said, "Why don't you pick two more agile maids to protect the young lady?"
"No, she's not used to having maids around her."
"If the young lady asks, how shall we answer?"
"She doesn't ask, if she does, she says so."
Everyone suppressed the surprise in their hearts and bowed their heads and said yes.
Xie Zi'an returned to the room, lit the oil lamp, repaired a book, and handed it to Su Yi: "Send it to the master as soon as possible."
Su Yi responded: "Yes!"
After explaining this, the sky was already dark, Xie Zi'an took off his coat, lay back on the bed gently, and carefully hugged Qi Lele into his arms.
Today, if she hadn't been vigilant, maybe the dead man would have already succeeded, after all, there are too many ways to make people die unexpectedly.
But when he thought of this, Xie Zi'an felt a dull pain in his heart.
Su Zhengtao and Su Yi are certainly responsible for dereliction of duty, but the most dereliction of duty is that he is the husband of a man.
It was he who thought that he had no worries about his life now, but he forgot that his lady was just a country girl in the eyes of others, an existence that could be erased without care.
I don't know how long it took, the person in his arms suddenly moved, Xie Zi'an came back to his senses, lowered his eyes, and just looked at her.
"Didn't you sleep well last night?"
Xie Zi'an smiled: "I slept for most of the night, and I didn't wake up for long."
Qi Lele stared at him carefully for a while, but he didn't see any blood, and his complexion was not bad, so let's assume that he really slept for most of the night.
"I caught a pheasant yesterday, I'll make you a pheasant to try later, right?"
Xie Zi'an smiled, "Okay."
"Promised so quickly? It's called a flower chicken, but it's going to be roasted in moist mud, you ...... Hmm......"
Xie Zi'an lowered his head and kissed the person carefully.
"Madame, can't you let me eat a mess? Huh?"
Qi Lele covered his mouth and glared at him, when did this person become so unsophisticated! I kissed it without rinsing my mouth!
"Of course not! If you don't make it clear in advance, you will know it later, what should I do if I am blamed?"
"How dare you! The lady made it with her own hands, even arsenic and frost I am willing to ......."
Qi Lele covered Xie Zi'an's mouth: "Bah! What nonsense early in the morning!"
Xie Zi'an smiled and looked into the depths of her eyes, and gently kissed her palm.
Who can withstand this!
Qi Lele only felt an itchy feeling from her palm all the way to her heart, she hurriedly retracted her hand, propped up the bed and wanted to get up.
Xie Zi'an grabbed her waist and pressed the person under him, almost desperately peeling off the already messy underwear, and the hot and wet kiss went all the way down the tips of her ears, swimming on the creamy skin.
