Chapter Twenty-Five: I'm Coming to Ask for Someone
The two guards were quickly dragged down, and no, their groans of pain could be heard in the house.
"His Royal Highness King Li, can I leave now?" Momoori said weakly, it's been a day, and he Yuwen Che should have found out what he should have checked.
Momoori is hungry and sleepy now, not only that, there are more mosquitoes in the firewood room in Yuwen Che's house, and they have been flying near her head before, and Momoori still feels that her head is buzzing.
Yu Wenche didn't speak, just lowered his head and stared at Momoori, the light of the hall reflected on his handsome face, and the expression on his face was no longer the arrogant and conceited Four Princes, but an indescribable softness.
Momoori was slightly stunned, thinking that she had seen it wrong, is this still the cynical Fourth Prince Yu Wenche?
"His Royal Highness King Li, Baili Xiao asks to see you. "The housekeeper of Liwang's Mansion came to report.
Baili Xiao? Why did he come? Momoori asked secretly, isn't it Xiaohua who followed to Liwang's Mansion with clues, and then found Baili Xiao?
"Oh——— what is he doing here?" asked Yu Wenche with an eyebrow.
"I said I was looking for someone. ”
Yu Wenche sneered and said, "I have nothing to do with him on weekdays, why did you come to my house to find someone, did he say who he was looking for?"
"Back to King Li, it was said that she was looking for a maid who secretly escaped from her house. After the housekeeper finished speaking, Yuwen Che glanced at Momoori and vaguely guessed something.
This Baili Xiao really came to look for her, but what does it mean to run away secretly? Where did she sneak away, but she was only imprisoned for a short time.
"Let him in. Yu Wenche said.
Baili Xiao walked in unhurriedly, and today he was still wearing a cyan robe.
He carried a cat in his arms, and this cat was the white Persian cat he had seen on the boat that night.
But seeing Baili Xiao's slender fingers gently stroking it, the cat's eyes were also very enjoyable.
Momoori saw that the cyan figure was getting closer and closer, and she felt a little guilty of being a thief, and instantly looked away, just looking at Shangyu Wenche as if she was looking into it, and she suddenly choked up.
Yu Wenche strode towards Baili Xiao, "I don't know why Baili Gongzi came to my mansion?"
"I'm here to ask for someone!" Baili Xiao pointed at Momoori, a wicked smile rose at the corner of his lips, and said slowly.
"I don't know who this yellow-haired girl is. Baili Xiao was more than half a head taller than Yu Wenche, and Yu Wenche looked up at his handsome face like a demon.
"She is my maid, and she owes me the money and hasn't paid it off. ”
"How much silver?"
"Ten taels!"
Momoori was stunned for a moment, and asked anxiously: "Xiao Gongzi, isn't it five taels, how did it become ten taels?"
"At first, it was five taels, but you escaped from the house last night, and today you are a miner for another day, so ...... These five taels are fine. ”
"I ......" Momoori couldn't answer for a while.
"Okay, don't you all talk about it, isn't it just five taels, I'll give it to you, this girl hasn't gotten rid of her suspicion yet, and I can't hand it over to you for the time being." In fact, today, he has sent someone to investigate Li Gui's house in the suburbs, and he has also gone to the cliff wall cave to check, this girl is indeed not lying.
As for why he didn't let him go, he didn't know, but he felt that this girl looked ordinary, but her eyes were unusually attractive, attracting him to keep her by his side.
"Does His Royal Highness King Liwang think that I, Baili Xiao, am the one who lacks these ten taels of silver?" asked Baili Xiao playfully, his narrow eyes with an unbeatable arrogance.
