The rare leisure time made Xie Wanyu feel a little uncomfortable. With nothing to do, she could only sit in the room and read a book.
Fortunately, Tai Shuyi was afraid that she would be bored, so he specially found some story books, which allowed her to have some fun amidst boredom.
Three days later, the disaster situation eased, but Tai Shuqi was still too busy to see anyone.
The strong wind rustled the leaves outside the house, like a reminder. Xie Wanyu stood under the eaves, her thoughts drifting away, and a strand of hair on her temples was blown up.
I don't know how Tai Shuqi handled it. Since those people dared to embezzle disaster relief money, they must not be so easy to deal with, otherwise there would be no need for him to take action.
"Madam, it's windy today and you're weak. Don't catch the cold again. You'd better go back!"
Zhufang persuaded Xie Wanyu to enter the house.
Xie Wanyu nodded, indeed a little cold.
As soon as she entered the room, she felt her feet slip and she threw herself directly towards the ground. Fortunately, she grabbed the edge of the table in time and did not fall violently.
"lady..."
Zhufang shouted in shock, while Xie Wanyu turned pale and bit her lip.
"Ma'am, how are you?"
Seeing Xie Wanyu's face pale, Zhufang hurriedly helped her sit down.
Xie Wanyu shook her head: "I'm fine. Close the door tightly and don't let the wind from outside come in."
"Hey, slave, let's go right away."
I don't know whether it was because of the strong wind just now or because of my health, but I always felt a slight pain in my heart.
After Zhufang closed the door, she hurried back and poured a cup of hot tea and handed it over, "Madam, have a cup of tea to warm yourself up."
Xie Wanyu reached out to take it and took a sip. After drinking the water, her chest felt better.
"Dong dong dong."
There was a fierce knock on the door, and Xie Wanyu frowned as she was about to take a rest.
"Slave, go take a look."
Zhufang turned around and opened the door. After a scream, there was no more sound.
Xie Wanyu got up to check, saw Zhufang being held hostage, and looked at the person holding her hostage.
This man was dressed in black, with only one pair of eyes exposed from his whole body, and those clear eyes did not seem like someone who would kill without blinking an eye.
"I am also desperate. I hope you two girls can forgive me. As long as you don't say anything, I won't hurt you."
The man's voice was very low, revealing a hint of weakness, as if he was hurt.
Xie Wanyu nodded: "As long as you let Zhu Fang go, I can promise you."
Zhufang has experienced many things, and this was the first time she was held hostage. She was a little panicked, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Search for me. This person must still be here. There is no way he can escape."
"yes."
"You want to see people alive, you want to see corpses when you're dead!"
The voices of officers and soldiers came from outside, and the footsteps of the search were getting closer and closer. The man in black hesitated again and again, and slowly put down the dagger in his hand.
Xie Wanyu patted her shoulder comfortingly: "Zhufang, you stay outside. If someone knocks on the door, just open the door and don't let anyone see anything."
Zhu Fang hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to listen to Xie Wanyu's words, but kept looking at the man in black warily.
"follow me."
Xie Wanyu glanced at the man in black, turned around and entered the room.
The man in black hurriedly followed. Now he had no other choice but to trust the woman in front of him.
As soon as the two entered the room, there was another knock on the door.
"Princess, are you in there?"
Zhufang gathered her emotions and opened the door.
Wu Kang stood outside the door with a smile on his face, but his eyes kept looking inside.
"My wife is resting and it is not convenient to see guests."
Wu Kang said with an apologetic smile, "There is a thief in the house. I am worried that he will escape into the princess's yard. I wonder if you can let me go in and search."
Seeing that he was about to come in with his guards, Zhu Fang immediately stretched out his arms to block her, "How can I allow you people to search my wife's place?"
"What do you mean by this, miss? I am also acting under orders. If the princess really encounters a gangster, it will be an even greater crime."
Wu Kang said calmly, Zhu Fang frowned, obviously unsure of his decision.
Seeing this, Wu Kang took the opportunity to push the door open and rushed in with his guards.
"Girl, don't blame me. Please forgive me for being rude."
With just one word, he completely wiped himself out.
Zhu Fang snorted coldly and said with an angry tone, "You are so brave, aren't you afraid that the prince will blame you when he comes back?"
Wu Kang's eyes flashed with a hint of sinisterness, "We are also thinking about the safety of the princess."
"My lord, there is none here."
"My lord, there is none here either."
Wu Kang frowned, looked at Zhu Fang standing in front of the door, and shouted to the room, "Princess, your subordinate Wu Kang has something to see you."
Just as Zhufang was about to stop him, Xie Wanyu's voice came from inside.
"Let him in."
Zhufang hesitated for a moment before stepping aside.
Wu Kang stepped into the room, looked around, and found that there was a screen across the room, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused.
But he was not in the mood to think so much now. He had to catch that person quickly, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
He walked around the screen into the inner room and saw Xie Wanyu leaning on the bed, wearing a plain white dress and holding a book in her hand.
"Princess, I wonder if someone has broken in?"
Xie Wanyu put down the script in her hand and said coldly, "Hasn't Sir already seen it? If you don't believe it, you can search it."
Wu Kang squinted his eyes slightly and scanned the room, but found nothing unusual. He turned around and cupped his hands towards Xie Wanyu: "Princess, please forgive me. I will take my leave."
After that, he took the people and left quickly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the door, he flew up and fell heavily to the ground.
"puff……"
Wu Kang clutched his chest, blood spurting out of his mouth.
"My lord, my lord."
"Damn it, who dares to be so bold? Let me arrest him!" Wu Kang yelled in anger.
When had he ever been in such a state of embarrassment? He was so shameless.
Several guards helped the seriously injured man to his feet.
The other guards drew their swords and stared at the door.
Tai Shuqi appeared in the courtyard wearing a dark black robe, and his cold eyes swept over everyone one by one.
When the guard saw the visitor, he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "I have met the prince."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wu, I didn't know it was you, so I thought some thief broke in."
Tai Shuqi's light words revealed the story of Wu Kang being kicked.
Wu Kang looked very ugly when he heard this, but facing Tai Shuqi, he could only choose to be patient, and he also explained in a pleasant manner, "A thief broke into the house, and the subordinate was afraid that the princess would be hurt, so he brought people over to investigate. .”
When the other guards saw this scene, they all stood aside in trepidation and remained silent.
What kind of person is Tai Shuqi? He is a moody person, and he kills people without blinking an eye. In his eyes, they are like ants.
"So, I still want to reward you?"
"I don't dare." Wu Kang was already sweating profusely. At this point, he could only bite the bullet.
"Why don't you leave then? Why don't you wait for me to send you out?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Kang ran out with his guards rolling and crawling.
After Tai Shuqi entered the room, he first made sure that Xie Wanyu was fine, then looked at the beam and sat down.
"Aren't you coming down yet?"
"I've met the prince."
The man in black jumped down from the top of the beam, took off the black cloth on his face, knelt on one knee and said.
