Still in the large mansion on the outskirts of Beijing, a handsome young man dressed in mysterious clothes was teasing the bird cage hanging on the corridor.
Suddenly, a gray dove suddenly flew to the young master's side. Upon seeing this, the young master just put down some wheat grains in his hand, and then he opened his palm directly, and then the gray dove landed steadily. into his palm.
After the pigeon finished pecking the grains of wheat in his hand, he just smoothed the pigeon's feathers again. Only when he was sure that the pigeon had stabilized did he reach out and take off the thin bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg, and then he lifted the pigeon directly. Let go.
As soon as the pigeon was free, it flapped its wings and left the place.
The young master lowered his head and poured out the letter from the bamboo tube.
What was written on the small piece of paper rolled into a cylinder was Princess Liang's letter for help.
Seeing Princess Liang saying that not only her entire army was wiped out, but they were also captured and tortured to extract confessions, he couldn't help but cursed idiots in a low voice.
Later, after seeing his letter, he said that she had found out the current location of the assassins and the contents when he needed to take action.
Mr. Xuanyi even lit the letter and burned it directly on the corridor.
At the same time, an invisible guard suddenly appeared in front of him and knelt on one knee.
Looking at the other party, Master Xuanyi said coldly, "Go and tell that idiot Xu Zhilan that I can't trust her information, and let her try to find out the whereabouts of those people until she is sure that the information is true. I Only then can we send someone there.”
Hearing Mr. Xuanyi's words, the black-clothed secret guard only said yes.
Then he quickly disappeared outside the house.
In Prince Liang's Mansion, after meeting Prince Jin and his wife, Prince Liang was also ready to leave.
Princess Liang, who had never heard of him leaving or coming unless he brought foreign guests, rarely appeared in front of Prince Liang today.
Zhao Nianze turned around and saw Xu Zhilan. He was a little surprised, "Didn't you say you weren't feeling well? Why did you come here?"
When Xu Zhilan heard this, she just whispered, "I'm feeling much better. I heard that His Highness was leaving, so I came here to see him off."
Looking at Xu Zhilan like this, Zhao Nianze felt very strange. After all, Xu Zhilan had never taken the initiative to say goodbye to him before.
So he just whispered, "Do you have something to say?"
Xu Zhilan was about to speak, but after catching a glimpse of someone from the corner of her eye, she fell silent.
She only whispered, "It's nothing, I just want to say goodbye to His Highness."
Zhao Nianze's heart and eyes were all focused on Su Zhirou. After all, Su Zhirou's delivery date was approaching, and he was worried.
So he didn't think much about it. He just said, "There are no other people here. You don't have to come to see me off. Besides, haven't we already agreed that you will do yours and I will do mine and we won't interfere with each other?"
Hearing Zhao Nianze's words, Xu Zhilan only chuckled in a low voice, "What your Highness said is that it's easy for Your Highness to leave."
After saying this, Xu Zhilan only glanced at the person hiding in the corner, then turned around and walked back into the garden. When she saw her leaving, the person naturally followed her quickly.
The man was wearing a Tsing Yi that would only be worn by a housekeeper. His complexion was as fair as porcelain, and his brows and eyes were filled with a sentimental and carefree temperament.
After that, he walked slowly behind Xu Zhilan, and Xu Zhilan waited until she returned to the garden before turning around to look at him.
The man only smiled warmly and said, "Madam, I don't want to die, so please cherish my life."
Xu Zhilan just snorted softly when she heard this. She tossed her sleeves and left the man. The man didn't care. After all, beside Xu Zhilan, he was just a thing for her pleasure and for her to vent her anger.
As long as he makes her happy, it won't matter if his self-esteem is crushed to the ground. After all, she and he are different from each other. Isn't it as easy for big men like them to crush themselves to death as to crush an ant?
After following him into the inner room, he even wanted to use his body to please Xu Zhilan, but just as he hugged Xu Zhilan's waist, Xu Zhilan pushed him away.
He didn't dare to hug him too tightly, he just looked up at Xu Zhilan and said, "Master, can you?"
Are you disgusted with me? "
Hearing this, Xu Zhilan didn't even answer. She looked disgusted and said, "Get out of here!"
At the same time, a secret guard appeared in the room quietly.
Looking at the guard, the young housekeeper let go of Xu Zhilan very wisely, and then even closed the door considerately.
It's just different from before. In the past, he would probably leave the place directly after closing the door, but today he chose to stay outside the door. After all, he has been serving Xu Zhilan for so long, and Xu Zhilan's character is almost all He was in control.
A woman like her has never been so irritated for so long. If it bothers her for so long, it must be that things are getting more and more difficult.
Ever since that person discovered his affair with Xu Zhilan, he and Xu Zhilan had been dancing on the tip of a knife every day.
He knew that any words from those people could grind him into powder, and the only thing he could rely on was Xu Zhilan's pity.
Although he knew that Xu Zhilan's pity for him was not very good, but he was so humble, what else could he do.
When Xu Zhilan saw that only that person came over, her eyebrows turned cold. She just said softly, "Didn't your master reply? Why are you the only one here? Didn't I tell you that time is running out? If he doesn't come over, those secret guards will be very worried." He may be forced to confess directly. When he reveals the person behind it, wouldn’t you and I be all doomed?”
Hearing Xu Zhilan's words, the secret guard only whispered: "Of course the master asked me to bring you a message. He means that he can't trust you. You must go and inquire about the situation in the inner room yourself until you are sure that you are really there." Those secret guards, otherwise our master will not take action."
Hearing the secret guard's words, Xu Zhilan almost laughed angrily, "If I went to that room in person, would you still need to take action? Why don't I just poison them to death with a bag of poison!"
Hearing Xu Zhilan's words, the secret guard just said, "That's your business. Anyway, I have brought our master's words. It's up to you whether you want to do it or not."
"But I have to remind the princess that if something happens, the person behind the scenes will be you and no one else!"
"You!" Xu Zhilan was instantly angry, but the secret guard ignored Xu Zhilan's anger and left directly.
They didn't have the slightest fear. The only one who was really worried was Xu Zhilan.
When she thought that she had no relatives to rely on and ended up like this, Xu Zhilan was so angry that she smashed, threw, and tore all the utensils in the house until they were completely destroyed.
When the housekeeper knelt in from the door again, the room was in a mess, with many broken pieces of porcelain scattered on the ground, and Xu Zhilan sat slumped on the ground among the ruins.
In her whole life, she didn't know what she wanted.
In the past, she only wanted to grow old with one person, but that person died because of his collusion with the rebels, and she was married to the King of Liang, whom she disliked.
If she had known this earlier, she might as well have followed Ye Lang.
The housekeeper didn't dare to get up. Seeing Xu Zhilan sitting slumped on the ground, he only dared to kneel and move a little closer to Xu Zhilan. As he moved forward, the broken porcelain pieces were deeply embedded in the palm of his hand, and he was immediately The pain was excruciating, but I didn't dare to say anything.
"Master, don't be angry. Everything will turn around and things will turn bright and clear one day." He comforted Xu Zhilan with a humble and flattering smile. @
However, Xu Zhilan just looked at the other party indifferently.
I don't know what she thought of, but Xu Zhilan suddenly chuckled, "The summit has turned around? Will there be a bright future? Is there still a day for me? Haha... You are so stupid!"
"How could they let me go? For offending that person, even the nine Yi tribes of my family are not a problem. I can survive now only because I still have some use value."
Hearing this, the housekeeper lowered his head and said, "Madam, are there nothing we can do? I don't want to die."
"If you don't want to die, why did you go to my bed that day?" Xu Zhilan just asked coldly.
When the young housekeeper heard Xu Zhilan's question, he just whispered, "Didn't the lady hint at the slave?"
"I hinted at you, but you can also
Refuse? "Xu Zhilan said with a smile.
Hearing Xu Zhilan's words, the housekeeper suddenly felt cold all over. He suddenly understood what Xu Zhilan was planning.
Although he wanted to escape, but where could a slave like him, whose contract was in the hands of his master, escape to?
The butler's eyebrows dimmed, and he lowered his head as if accepting his fate and said, "I know, I coveted Madam's beauty and voluntarily stayed with Madam."
Then he tremblingly raised his weak, sentimental, and pitiful face, and there seemed to be a little bit of tears in his eyes from time to time.
Even though Xu Zhilan didn't have much feelings for him, she had to admit that it would be a pity for such a beautiful woman to just leave him alone.
Her hand gently touched the man's cheek, whose skin was as smooth as porcelain.
The man was obviously much taller than her, but at this moment he was just crawling under her like a humble and well-behaved bobcat.
He looked up at the other person's face, and only said softly, "Please Madam, have mercy on me."
At the same time, he only reached out and grabbed Xu Zhilan's hand, and put it into his lapel.
If nothing else happens, there will probably be another love affair between them. However, the desire that made her indulge in it in the past is suddenly boring now.
No matter how close we are physically, our hearts feel far away. What's the point of being so close?
What's more, she had no feelings for the other person. She took her hand out of the man's hand, then gently slapped the butler in the face and said, "I have pity on you, are you worthy?"
