Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child: Chapter 223 wait me back
Chapter 223 Wait for me to come back
Lu Yao didn't give up and tried to strike up a conversation again.
"My name is Lu Yao, what do you call a girl?"
Angelica thinks this person is annoying and disturbs her to enjoy the food.
She simply picked up the bowl and chopsticks, stood up, and left a sentence—
"My name is Angelica."
Then she ran out of the kitchen holding the tableware and chopsticks.
She wants to find a quiet place to continue enjoying the food.
Lu Yao called her twice, but unfortunately they didn't even turn their heads back. Seeing her posture, she seemed to avoid him like a snake.
This made Lu Yao suspicious of himself.
Is he really that annoying?
The little book boy ran in and couldn't help asking when he saw his son sitting in the kitchen in a daze.
"Young Master, aren't you here to find something to eat? Did you find it?"
Lu Yao sighed: "I found it originally, but unfortunately it's gone."
Xiaoshutong was at a loss and did not understand what the son meant.
…
The door of the guest room on the second floor.
Yu Weiwei held a tray in both hands and couldn't knock on the door. She wanted to call His Royal Highness, but remembered that they were still playing the roles of Prince Min and his son, so she turned around when she said something, and finally it became—
"My lord, are you inside?"
After a while, the door was pulled open from the exit.
Xiao Jian saw her and let her enter the house.
Yu Shang put the tray on the table: "Quickly try the Dezhou Braised Chicken I just made and see if it tastes good?"
She lifted the lid of the casserole, and the fragrance filled the whole room at once.
Xiao Juan sat down at the table and took the bowls and chopsticks from her hands.
He first tasted a piece of chicken, then drank a sip of chicken soup, and finally gave a fair evaluation.
"It was delicious."
Yu CuiCui immediately smiled and frowned: "As long as you like it."
She served a bowl of rice, soaked it in chicken broth, and covered it with torn chicken and mushrooms.
Just use chopsticks to pull chicken mushrooms and rice into your mouth, not to mention more satisfying!
This is Yu Cui Cui’s favorite way to eat.
Wait until you have enough to eat and drink, Yu curled up and asked.
"How's that Qian Jiujiu doing? Has he explained the mastermind behind the scenes?"
Xiao Juan walked to the small stove, picked up the teapot, poured two cups of tea, and said in his mouth.
"Qian Jiu is the person responsible for abducting and selling women in Wangsong City.
He manages more than a dozen people, according to his account.
The gang of them also has strongholds elsewhere.
They divided the abducted women into three, six and nine classes.
The last ones were sent to the military camp as military prostitutes.
Better to put it in the brothel to pick up customers and make money.
The best ones are left to be carefully trained by them, ready to be given as gifts to nobles. "
He handed one of the cups of tea to Yu Cui Cui.
Yu Weiwei waved his hand: "I don't drink tea at night, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep."
Xiao Jian: "This is soothing tea, which helps with sleep."
Hearing the words, Yu Lingwei no longer refused, she said sweetly thank you Baoer, then took a sip from the teacup.
Seeing her drinking tea, Xiao Juan just continued.
"The military camp that Qian Jiu said was the Eastern Expedition Army, that is, the garrisoned army in Liaodong County.
According to the records of the imperial court, the Eastern Expedition Army had a total of 100,000 soldiers and horses.
Their main duty is to guard the Liaodong border and prevent Chen Guo from attacking.
At the same time, we must maintain the security of the entire Liaodong County. "
Yu Weiwei blinked: "You mean, the Eastern Expedition Army secretly colluded with the human trafficking gang?"
Xiao Juan: "If what Qian Jiu said is true, then there must be serious problems within the Eastern Expedition Army."
Yu Weiwei remembered the words Duan Nian'er had said before his death, a move in his heart and a guess.
"Could Qian Jiu and Duan Nian'er be the same envoy? The reason why Duan Nian'er was so eager to take action against Prince Min and his son was because there was a problem within the Eastern Expedition Army, and some people were afraid that something would happen. I want to attack King Min and his son."
Xiao Juan replied in a low voice: "What you said is not impossible. The Eastern Expedition Army forced Liang to be prostitutes and raised military prostitutes. If this matter is investigated, the commander of the Eastern Expedition Army will not be able to escape the blame."
Yu Weiwei asked curiously, "Who is the coach of the Eastern Expedition Army?"
"The expedition general Tang Pei."
When Yu Cuiwei heard the name, it sounded familiar, and immediately thought of it.
"Isn't this the general Tang who proposed to abolish military prostitutes?"
It was precisely because of Tang Pei's advice that the emperor issued a decree to prohibit prostitutes in the army. Unexpectedly, someone in Tang Pei's military camp was raising military prostitutes.
This is too ironic.
Yu Weiwei said worriedly: "If there is really a problem with the Eastern Expedition Army, then our trip to Liaodong County this time will definitely be very dangerous."
The Eastern Expedition Army had 100,000 soldiers and horses, and they only brought more than 50 eagle guards when they went out this time.
Even if the Eagle Guards can defeat ten with one, they will not be able to defeat one hundred thousand troops!
Xiao Yan put down the teacup and slowly stated his plan.
"This trip is indeed very dangerous, so I want you to stay in Wangsong City. After I send Prince Min and his son to Liaodong County, I will come back to join you."
Yu Weiyi refused without thinking.
"No! I can't let you take risks alone, I want to go with you! We are husband and wife, we should share weal and woe, you can never leave me behind!"
After she finished speaking, she put down the teacup and held Xiao Yan's hand tightly, her expression extremely firm.
Xiao Jian didn't say anything, just stared at her fixedly.
Gradually, Yu Weiwei felt a little dizzy in her head, and a strong sleepiness came in waves.
Her eyelids drooped uncontrollably, her body swayed twice, and then she fell softly into Xiao Lian's arms.
Xiao Lian picked her up and gently placed her on the bed, then covered her with a quilt.
He stroked Yu Curly's hair and said in an unprecedented gentle tone.
"Be obedient and have a good night's sleep."
Yu Weiwei had already realized that there was something wrong with that cup of tea.
She barely held on to the last shred of reason and asked with difficulty.
"why?"
Xiao Lian said slowly.
"I took you out this time because I was afraid that you would be plotted against you in Yujing.
I have to look at you under my nose to feel at ease.
But people's calculations are not as good as heaven's. I underestimated the danger of Liaodong County.
I don’t know if I can come back alive after going to Liaodong County this time.
I can only put you here first, and I will let Xiao Luo stay to protect your safety.
You just wait for me for half a month.
If I haven't come back in half a month, you will follow Xiao Luo back to Yujing. "
Yu curled tightly onto his sleeve: "I don't..."
Reason told her not to sleep.
But the sleepiness is getting stronger and stronger.
Her body finally failed to hold up and fell asleep.
Xiao Yan pulled her fingers apart one by one, and carefully put hers into the quilt.
He sat on the edge of the bed and quietly looked at her sleeping face.
That's it for half the night.
He didn't stand up until it was almost dawn outside.
I don't know if we can see each other again, Xiao Wan is very reluctant to part, he leaned down, his thin lips fell on Yu curl's forehead, and he dropped a kiss as light as a feather.
"wait me back."
Ask for a ticket~~~
