Why hasn’t that guy come yet?

Shen Yuexi looked at the new maid across the table with a smile.

This maid has an oval face, a tall figure, and a pair of lively eyes. It seems that not only is she a good practitioner, but she is probably also quite smart.

"What's your name?"

"Lady Lao Pei asked," the maid also burst into laughter, put her hands on her waist and gave a salute, "My name is Xia Lan."

Completely different from Leng Shuang, Leng Shuang is ice and she is fire.

"Are you sent by His Royal Highness?"

Shen Yuexi felt that this matter was the most important and must be asked first.

Xia Lan quickly shook her head and said with a smile: "Oh, Madam Pei, as a slave, I am not worthy of taking care of His Highness the Crown Prince. I am Doctor Lin's maid, and I came here temporarily to take care of Madam Pei."

"That's good, that's good." Shen Yuexi felt relieved.

Since she was the maid sent by Lin Kui, Lin Kui would not be like Xiao Beiheng, who also likes to chop off the maid's hands. Now he is finally relieved of the worries of escaping.

Shen Yuexi happily picked up the water glass and took a sip of water. Before she could swallow it, Xia Lan suddenly laughed and said:

"Ms. Pei, my servants all know about your escape last night. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince told Leng Shuang to take good care of you. But Doctor Lin did not tell my slaves to please you."

Shen Yuexi puffed out her cheeks and looked at Xia Lan with her eyes open.

What's going on? There's something evil in this maid's words.

As Xia Lan spoke, she took out a rope from her waist and paused with her hands: "I'm afraid that Mrs. Pei will think of running away again, so I'll tie up your hands and feet with the rope first."

"puff!"

Shen Yuexi couldn't help it anymore and spit out all the saliva. She coughed and patted her chest.

Xia Lan took the rope around the table and said with a smile: "If Mrs. Pei runs away, I will also bear the responsibility. When I think that even the wall can't stop you, I will be very scared."

"No, how can I eat if you tie me up?"

"Slave, feed you."

"Where's the toilet?"

"My slave will carry you."

Shen Yuexi almost fainted and sent Leng Shuang away. In exchange for a god of plague, this is it. If she really needs to be tied up, whether she can escape is another matter. The main reason is that it is uncomfortable.

Shen Yuexi made a quick decision and shouted:

"I want to see His Highness the Crown Prince!"

Although Xia Lan wants to tie her up, if she is tied up to see Xiao Beiheng, Xiao Beiheng will definitely get angry.

Xia Lan raised her eyebrows, then returned her smile and said, "Oh, Madam Pei is quite smart. She knows how to move the Crown Prince to save her. There is really nothing I can do about that slave, so I'll tie her up again when I get back."

After saying that, Xia Lan gathered the rope and took it back, opened the door for Shen Yuexi, and said with a smile: "Please."

Shen Yuexi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked out the door and walked along the corridor to the room where Xiao Beiheng was, with Xia Lan following closely behind.

Although she was forced by Xia Lan to make this sudden move, she could still take this opportunity to try. If Xiao Beiheng became kind-hearted, she could just go to Daliang Village to have a look.

Nothing else, I just wanted to see if Xiao Zhuo was still there.

If not, she would have given up.

When they arrived outside Xiao Beiheng's study, they met Lin Kui coming out of the house.

Lin Kui was stunned for a moment when he saw her coming here. He looked over her shoulder and looked at Xia Lan behind him, and asked, "Mrs. Pei, do you have something to see His Highness?"

Shen Yuexi thought to herself: Of course she has something to do, she doesn't have anything to do.

"Yes, I want to see His Highness the Crown Prince, and I hope Mr. Lin can inform you on my behalf."

Lin Kui hesitated for a moment, then readily agreed: "Okay, I will go and report to the Crown Prince.

Shen Yuexi was waiting where she was. It was her last chance before noon. If she was really taken away by Xiao Beiheng, she would probably be sentenced to life imprisonment in the future.

"Ms. Pei, the prince has invited you." Lin Kui came out to greet her.

Shen Yuexi opened the curtain and entered the house. She looked back and saw that Xia Lan was already guarding the door and did not follow her.

Xiao Beiheng was wearing a sapphire blue robe, leaning over the desk without raising his head, writing furiously, writing something unknown, like a letter.

To be honest, Xiao Beiheng is really handsome. No matter what clothes he wears, he looks outstanding. But he is different from Xiao Zhuo. If Xiao Zhuo is a beautiful jade, he is a piece of beautiful jade inlaid with sharp blades. It seems that he is a piece of beautiful jade. Beauty, once you hold it in your hand, it will be cut with blood by a sharp knife.

Standing next to him was Leng Shuang.

Seeing her come in, the corners of Leng Shuang's mouth twitched slightly, then returned to her cold expression.

Shen Yuexi did not dare to express anything to Leng Shuang. She just saluted Xiao Beiheng: "My little lady has met His Royal Highness."

It seems that Lin Kui has already told Xiao Beiheng about Leng Shuang. Now Leng Shuang is standing here fine and her right hand is safe, which means Xiao Beiheng will not torture her again.

This is enough, she only needs to deal with the one outside next.

"What does Mrs. Pei have to do with this prince?"

Xiao Beiheng wrote a full page, placed the Langhao pen on the Jade Dragon pen holder, picked up the paper with his left hand and handed it to Leng Shuang. Leng Shuang took the paper and gently dried the ink on it.

"Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince say he would leave at noon today?" Shen Yuexi burst into laughter, "I want to go meet Doctor Hua and ask him to bring a message to my family."

"Oh?" Xiao Beiheng raised his eyes and glanced at the door, then stared at her, "Bring a message to your husband?"

Shen Yuexi quickly lowered her head, not letting Xiao Beiheng look into her eyes. Xiao Beiheng was a shrewd and cruel person. After what happened last night, her view of this person had been refreshed.

No matter what tricks he plays, he probably can't escape his shrewd eyes.

She mentioned this matter to Xiao Beiheng, firstly, to gain a chance to escape, and secondly, there was also an element of gambling in it.

I always feel that the probability of Xiao Beiheng rejecting is far greater than the probability of him agreeing.

However……

"Okay, I agree."

Xiao Beiheng didn't even hesitate and readily agreed.

This time it was Shen Yuexi's turn to be surprised.

It was obviously him who asked Leng Shuang to keep an eye on him. Now that he asked to see Dr. Hua in the county, he actually agreed quickly. Is there something fishy in it?

But when such a good opportunity was presented to her, she wouldn't talk too much.

Accompanied by Xia Lan, the two of them left the courtyard. They walked along the street to Yisheng Hall, and entered the inner hall to meet Dr. Hua.

Doctor Hua was surprised when he saw her: "Ms. Pei?"

Shen Yuexi nodded and winked behind her.

Doctor Hua looked at Xia Lan standing behind her, his face changed slightly, and he immediately smiled and said, "Ms. Pei is here for diagnosis and treatment?"

Shen Yuexi originally wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back when it reached her lips. It had been a whole night and she hadn't seen Xiao Zhuo. Even if someone sent someone a message, nothing would change.

"I came here to see how the medicine is selling. I'm leaving today."

"I'll give you the medicine money first."

Doctor Hua stood up and went to the cabinet behind him to take out a one hundred tael silver note and handed it to Shen Yuexi.

Shen Yuexi took the banknote, but for some reason, she didn't feel happy about it at all. Her heart was so filled with panic that it became difficult to breathe.

After leaving the medicine shop, Xia Lan smiled and said: "Ms. Pei, the things are done, it's time to go back."

"I know, I know."

Shen Yuexi responded impatiently and walked back slowly. She glanced left and right to see if there were any opportunities that she could take advantage of.

Xia Lan tilted her head from the side and said, "Ms. Pei, don't try to be cunning."

Shen Yuexi remained silent and looked forward.

Not far ahead is the Tongliao County Government Office. There are two stone lions standing at the door. There are signs of "Quiet" and "Avoid". There is a breakfast shop ahead, with drawers of steamed buns stacked at the door.

Her heart moved and she told Xia Lan, "Xia Lan, go buy me two buns. I'll take them with me to eat on the way."

Xia Lan smiled and replied: "Ms. Pei, I have been ordered to watch you. Don't try to send me away."

"You are unqualified as a slave, but His Highness the Crown Prince has given you orders."

While talking with a smile, Shen Yuexi took a step to the side, widening the distance between the two.

"This slave is Doctor Lin's maid. She only takes orders from Lin..."

At this time, the two of them had reached the gate of the county government office. Before Xia Lan finished speaking, Shen Yuexi suddenly turned around and rushed towards the county government office, shouting at the same time:

"Kill, kill!"
