Chapter 167 Ask Lord Chu for protection

Xie Shuangge took two steps back in shock, and only then did he see the person in front of him clearly, "Xin Zhi? ”

Xin Zhi got up from the ground, patted the ash on his buttocks, and saluted Xie Shuangge without tears, "My subordinates almost offended the princess, and I asked the princess to forgive me." ”

Saying that, he glanced Xie Shuangge up and down, and asked worriedly, "Is the princess okay?" ”

"I'm fine." Xie Shuangge said embarrassedly: "It's me who left in too much hurry and didn't look at the road, are you in a hurry?" ”

As soon as she asked, Xin Zhi's face immediately changed, he looked left and right, saw that there was no one around, approached Xie Shuangge and whispered, "Someone in the palace sent a letter." ”

Seeing this, Xie Shuangge couldn't help but get nervous: "Who?" ”

"Witch Beauty." Xin Zhi had no intention of concealing it.

Xie Shuangge was surprised: "Why is it?" Is she looking for Chu Wuxian? ”

Xin Zhi bowed: "My subordinates don't know why she suddenly sent a letter to her master, but her subordinates were afraid of something urgent, so they didn't dare to delay, so they rushed over as soon as possible." ”

Xie Shuangge's heart turned back and forth, and his eyebrows frowned.

Wu Ningxiang and Chu Wuxian didn't have much friendship in the past, so they saved her that time, did she come to repay her kindness? Or is there something else in mind?

Xie Shuangge pursed her lips and said to Xin Zhi: "Let's go, I'll go with you." ”

Xin Zhi saw that Xie Shuangge's expression was not good, and he muttered, the princess wouldn't be jealous, right? Then he won't block the way for his master to chase his wife, right?

I knew it was coming late!

Xin Zhi was a little annoyed.

When he entered the West Wing, his skin was tight, for fear that the master would be unhappy and pick him up today.

However, as soon as he raised his head, he was facing Chu Wuxian's face like a spring breeze.

Xin Zhi: "? ”

What good things happened to the master today? How happy as a flower?

Chu Wuxian ignored him, and was quite surprised to see Xie Shuangge come back, "Why did the princess come back again?"

Many speculations flashed in his heart for a while, and he suddenly pressed the purse in his hand, and said solemnly: "You can't ask for the things you sent out." ”

Xie Shuangge: "......"

She glared at Chu Wuxian and didn't speak.

Chu Wuxian seemed to notice Xin Zhi at this time, and his face pale, "Why are you here?" ”

Xin Zhi: "......"

Didn't you see him just now? Okay, he's redundant.

"Master, a letter from the palace." Xin Zhi "endured the humiliation and burden", took out the letter from his arms and handed it to Chu Wuxian.

Chu Wuxian asked, "Who's?" ”

Xie Shuangge said lightly: "What about the witch beauty." ”

Chu Wuxian's hand shook.

He looked at Xie Shuangge, Xie Shuangge raised his eyebrows: "See what I do?" Read the letter. ”

Chu Wuxian pursed his lips slightly, opened the letter in his hand, and then his eyes changed.

Xie Shuangge sensed that something was wrong and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Chu Wuxian put down the letter and said thoughtfully: "Wu Meiren wants to ask the minister to protect her. ”

Xie Shuangge was puzzled: "Huh? ”

Chu Wuxian handed her the letter, "Something happened in the palace. ”

Xie Shuangge took it and browsed it, was speechless for a while, and only after a long time did he put the letter on the table and said in a low voice: "Concubine Mei, after all, I can't hold my breath." ”

……

Wu Meiren likes tea, and is always very particular when drinking tea, so she is more sensitive to the difference of tea flavor than ordinary people.

After eating today, she remembered that she had a new set of tea sets yesterday, so she thought about cooking tea and drinking it herself, but when the tea was cooked, she took a sip and suddenly felt that the taste was a little wrong.

She frowned immediately.

Seeing this, the palace maid Changxiu asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with the beauty, is this tea bad?" ”

Wu Meiren stared at the tea soup in the porcelain cup for a while, and raised her hand to stop Changxiu.

Seeing this, Changxiu looked at her nervously and didn't dare to say anything.

Wu Meiren took another shallow sip, carefully distinguished the taste, suddenly turned her head, and spit the tea into the empty teacup on the side.

"Beauty?!" Changxiu exclaimed in surprise, and Wu Meiren wiped her lips with a handkerchief and warned: "Shhh ”

Changxiu looked outside, saw that there was no one, approached Wu Meiren and asked cautiously, "But there is a problem with this tea?" ”

Wu Meiren nodded hesitantly, "I don't know, I just think today's tea is more astringent, I don't know if it's my delusion, but I just think it's weird." ”

"Beauty, how are you feeling now? Do you feel unwell? ”

Changxiu looked at her nervously, and Wu Meiren shook her head.

"This matter should not be underestimated, the slave maid went to ask the imperial doctor to take a look, right?"

Wu Meiren stopped her: "Don't do it first, I don't feel any discomfort, now I go to the imperial doctor to startle the snake." ”

"What then? What if someone wants to harm the beauty? You are now in the favor of God, and you don't know how many people's eyes are red. ”

Wu Meiren was silent for a moment, got up and packed the box of tea, went inside and took a pen and paper to write a letter, and instructed Changxiu: "You quietly go to Jinyiwei and ask them to hand over this letter to Commander Chu." ”

Changxiu was taken aback: "Beauty, it is taboo to privately contact foreign ministers!" ”

Wu Meiren pursed her lips, her face was slightly pale, "We don't have a choice right now, Lord Chu saved my life, I said that I would repay him, it's time to fulfill my promise." ”

"Lord Chu's temperament, will he really help us?" Changxiu couldn't believe it.

"A dead horse should be a live horse doctor, take a gamble." Wu Mei slapped the table and made up her mind, "Go ahead." ”

Changxiu didn't persuade again, and hurriedly went with the letter.

Wu Meiren sat in the hall, her heart was beating fast, she couldn't calm down, there was no way, she stood up and walked around the hall, her thoughts were chaotic.

I didn't eat a few bites of food at noon, and I was anxious.

When the sun set, she saw a palace maid with a raw face come in and set the dishes and chopsticks, and she couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

"You're new here? Why haven't I seen you before? ”

The palace maid was neither humble nor arrogant: "Back to the beauty, the slave maid is called Yingshui, Sister Poria is uncomfortable, and the slave maid will take care of her." ”

Wu Meiren didn't speak, and the others set up the dishes and chopsticks and retreated, but Yingshui didn't move for a long time.

Changxiu was puzzled: "Why don't you leave?" ”

Yingshui suddenly raised her eyes and glanced at Wu Meiren.

Wu Meiren blessed her soul and raised her voice: "You slave and maid are clumsy, you can't make a single dish, you kneel here for the master, Changxiu, close the door!" ”

"Yes!" Although Changxiu didn't know what she meant, she obediently went to close the door.

As soon as the door closed, blocking the sight of prying eyes, Yingshui knelt down, took out a letter from his arms and held it with both hands, "The slave maid is ordered by Lord Chu to deliver a letter to the beauty." ”

Wu Meiren breathed a sigh of relief, raised her eyes and glanced at Changxiu, a dead horse as a live horse doctor, it was really effective!

Chu Wuxian actually replied to them!

Wu Meiren restrained the excitement in her heart, took the letter, she looked at it first, and saw that the letter had no traces of being opened, so she tore it and took out the letter paper and looked at it.

Originally, her face was quite good, but the more she looked at it, the whiter it became, and the more she looked at it, the more ugly it became.

Changxiu's heart chuckled.

After a while, the witch beauty's hand loosened, and the letter paper fell to the ground.

Changxiu was startled, and saw that Wu Meiren's eyes were red, and she was clutching the skirt on her legs tightly.

"Okay, okay, these people are really calculating!"
