Chapter 91: You Won't Understand This Unspeakable Pain
Han Xiaoxi grabbed the cloth on his head and wiped his hair and body casually, fortunately, the bathing pool was warm enough, and the air was warm.
The pain of the shattered seal just now was relieved a lot, and she finally had a chance to breathe slowly, because the soaking time was not enough, her vision was only half restored, and her vision was still a little blurry.
With the only sight she had left, she turned her head to look at Xuan Mo......
His face was slightly hideous, and there was indescribable emotion in his cold face, which looked very much like "pain......
"Are you in pain?"
Han Xiaoxi was like a wet kitten, wiping her body and whispering in the softest voice.
"You won't understand. β
Xuan Mo avoided Han Xiaoxi's eyes, took the fabric from Han Xiaoxi's hand, and gently rubbed her hair dry.
Although Han Xiaoxi didn't understand what Xuan Mo said about "pain", he always felt that he was not in a good mood.
At times like these, a well-behaved silence is a necessary survival skill.
She didn't speak again, and let Xuanmo take care of her long ink-colored hair, smooth and gentle across her fingertips, smoothly spreading down, with a delicate feeling like combing to the end.
Taking advantage of Han Xiaoxi's lack of attention, Xuan Mo put his finger in front of Han Xiaoxi's eyes and asked her.
"How much is this?"
Han Xiaoxi didn't want to be thrown into the pool again, but he really couldn't see clearly, so he could only bite the bullet and cover it casually.
"Three. β
Before she could finish speaking, she had returned to the pool, the only difference being that a new hairpin had been inserted in her hair.
I didn't notice just now that he actually gave himself a silver hairpin, which coiled his hair firmly, and now he soaked it in the bath, and he wouldn't wet it again.
"You can go back on your own in a moment, I still have to do something. β
Xuan Mo left without looking back, Han Xiaoxi could only see clearly that it was a black shadow, and finally breathed a long sigh of relief when he left.
Finally, I don't have to be oppressed by his aura anymore, and I can enjoy myself in a bath~
She lay happily in the pool, completely unaware that the jade ring in her coat had rolled out.
Xuan Mo held the ring tightly in his hand and carefully observed it several times in front of the light boy, but he still had no clue.
I can only see that it is very valuable, but I can't see who it is, it seems that I still have to go to Lu Qiao.
Lu Qiao has always been known as a collector of the prefecture, although he is mainly a civil official, but there are countless treasures at home, and he is also very rich.
Lu Qiao lay on the table, looking left and right at the jade texture, and almost put his eyes on it.
I even felt that it was not clear enough, so I specially turned on the light of the candle flame to observe it up close, and found that the natural water head inside is also very good, and it is indeed a good texture.
"It's a ring. β
Lu Qiao said seriously.
Xuan Mo rolled up the official document on the side casually, and made a move to drink it, which made Lu Qiao shout in pain.
"I don't even know it's a ring, what are you and what I am, and ask if you have any other clues. β
"Is this evidence in some case?"
Lu Qiao observed carefully, and asked Xuan Mo, if you want to know more information about this ring, you have to start from the source.
"This ......" Xuan Mo didn't want to say it directly, but he really needed Lu Qiao's help, so he could only reply stiffly, "Han Xiaoxi fell out when he was changing clothes." β
Change of clothes......
When Lu Qiao heard this word, he imagined a lot of pictures that could not be reviewed.
It seems that the Night King and his fiancΓ©e have progressed to this point, and it must be a great joy that good things are coming.
Seeing that Lu Qiao didn't answer for a long time, Xuan Mo was another blow.
"The ring is made by the royal family, and you can see that there are fine carved lines here, which is indeed a royal fine workmanship, plus there is a recorded number and the date of the engraving. β
Royal......
When Xuan Mo heard this, he didn't have to think about it, this must have been sent by the Hou Ye who had his brain in the water.
Han Xiaoxi didn't refuse, and took it with him.
This little woman is afraid that she is challenging his bottom line.
This is the innocence of kissing him, touching his body, and dyeing the innocence of Xuanmo, but you still want to tease other men?
Besides, this man is completely inferior to himself!
"You say, do you think I'm worse than that Hou Ye?"
Xuan Mo was so angry that he almost breathed fire in his nose, like a Tyrannosaurus rex, occupying Lu Qiao's entire table.
Lu Qiaoben was carefully observing the ring, but was forced by Xuan Mo to almost collapse on the chair.
Lord Night King's aura was really terrifying, and Lu Qiao's legs were weak.
"No, no, no, the Night King is both talented and beautiful, and Han Si judged that it was a natural pair. β
Lu Qiao said meaningfully, as if hinting at something.
"What do you say I should do to make Han Xiaoxi only think about me?"
Xuanmo Bingshan's face finally had an expression, and his frowning brows seemed to be tied in a dead knot, he couldn't figure out how the Hou Ye actually sent a love token one step ahead of him.
"Send things too!" Speaking of falling in love, Lu Qiao found confidence and immediately started to guide the work, "Look, Master Hou will give him a ring, and you will give it something else! Or, you can also send a ring, and give it a hundred times better than him!"
Lu Qiao's words suddenly made Xuan Mo find his way, he immediately nodded and walked out of the door quickly.
Lu Qiao shouted behind Xuan Mo:
"Lord Night, don't you want this ring?"
This ring is worth a lot of silver.
"I've got you. β
Xuan Mo had a big head when he thought of the Hou Ye, and he didn't want this ring to "return to its original owner" at all, so he generously gave it to Lu Qiao.
When Han Xiaoxi returned to the Hou Mansion, he wanted to call the Hou Ye to go to the palace together.
As soon as I touched my pocket, I found that the ring I had just brought back to Hou Ye was missing.
He said it was a family heirloom! She didn't plan to marry at all, and she lost the ring!
Is this still possible?
She was anxious to go back and look for it, but she couldn't die......
As soon as he turned around, he almost hit Hou Ye's chest directly, Han Xiaoxi's surprised expression was slightly embarrassed, but he still maintained superb survival skills, which was all this damn desire to survive.
"Master Hou, let's go to the palace and investigate the case together. β
felt that Han Xiaoxi was too enthusiastic, and Hou Ye thought that it was his own ring that worked, and Han Xiaoxi's good impression of him doubled, so he went to the palace with Han Xiaoxi.
At this time, it was already evening, and it stands to reason that the gate in the palace was closed, but with the Hou Ye here, it was also a green light.
Every time the Hou Ye enters the palace, he must first visit his mother, that is, Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother.
This time, Han Xiaoxi was wearing a plain white shirt, not dyed with bright colors, and only with a few dark embroidery, which looked very elegant and generous.
The Hou Ye was wearing a formal official uniform, pulled Han Xiaoxi's sleeves and walked up to the main hall, and respectfully saluted the Queen Mother.
Han Xiaoxi is familiar with the kneeling ceremony, and he is even more meticulous.
Seeing that there was no Xue Yiyi on Han Xiaoxi's side, the Queen Mother was puzzled and asked.
"Why is there no one waiting on Miss Han's side?"
"Back to the Queen Mother, Xue Yi's family has something to do, and he can't do anything during this time. β
Han Xiaoxi's excuse was extremely perfunctory, but she and the Queen Mother understood each other that this was a tentative question.
The Queen Mother was asking Han Xiaoxi about the investigation of the matter, and Han Xiaoxi told the Queen Mother that she already knew the fact that Xue Yiyi was a traitor.
"Okay, it's really a heroine, Miss Han is worthy of being the person I picked. β
The Queen Mother appreciated Han Xiaoxi very much, and she also gave Han Xiaoxi and the Hou Ye a seat.
This is a supreme honor for the people of the court, because Han Xiaoxi is bodyless and worthless, and it is indeed very rare to be able to sit in the Queen Mother's Palace.
"Where are you going to start investigating?"
The Queen Mother picked up the tea cup from the tray, blew the tea cool with charm, and then took a small sip.
Han Xiaoxi cautiously replied: "It is still necessary to check the crime scene, there is such a big incident in the harem, and it must be carefully investigated to the end." β
"Okay, although you don't have an official status, you have such courage to dare to confront these nobles, and the mourning family knew that you were different on the first day I saw you. You don't have to be afraid, the mourning family has given you privileges, which is equivalent to the chauffeur of the harem, and you can do things with confidence. Moreover, the mourning family believes that the Hou Ye will also support you. β
The Queen Mother smiled kindly, but her words contained a mystery, and she glanced at Hou Ye again.
Han Xiaoxi is the smartest, and naturally understands the voice of the Queen Mother.
The queen mother doesn't love herself at all, but hopes that she will become an external force to clean up all the corrupt and rotten leaves in the palace, and also frustrate the arrogance of these arrogant concubines, saving them from competing for favor every day.
However, this also coincides with Han Xiaoxi's purpose, and it is just a win-win situation for each other.
Hou Ye is the one who can't understand the voiceover, he still nodded lovingly, and pulled Han Xiaoxi's little hand tightly in his hand, the admiration in his eyes became more and more obvious, just one stone was missing, and it would directly overflow the water.
"The Queen Mother doesn't have to worry, I have given Xi'er the heirloom jade ring given by the Queen Mother, and she will be the mother of the Hou Mansion in the future. Xi'er, I remember that ring you brought with you, take it out quickly and show it to the Queen Mother......"
Hou Ye's concerned eyes stared at Han Xiaoxi tightly, and his eyebrows were full of love and doting.
However, what if Hou Ye knew that she had lost the ring?
"Master Hou, that jade ring is a precious thing, and I have treasured it. β
Han Xiaoxi prevaricated quietly, but it was obvious that she was very weak-hearted, and the Queen Mother thought she was too shy, and persuaded her with oil and vinegar on the side.
"Speaking of which, the jade ring is a good jadeite production, and you can also raise jadeite if you wear it for a long time, and the color will be more and more watery. β
The Queen Mother also shouted to see it, but Han Xiaoxi wanted to cry without tears now.
Thousands of calculations, how could you think that you were stumped by a small jade ring!
Han Xiaoxi suddenly sweated like rain, that little expression was simply embarrassing, and she was about to cry in the next second, now she is an ant on a hot pot, and she can be fried crispy with a little sesame sauce.
What should she do, and what can she do?
