Chapter 400 Stealing the Golden Silk Hedgehog Armor
"Princess, I'm right outside. If you need any orders, just call me anytime." After Ziqing finished speaking, she closed the door and left.
Recently, the princess rarely needs her help when taking a bath.
"Yes." Xie Yao slowly sank her body and did not stop until she was completely underwater.
Seeing the heat around me, I suddenly felt a lot lighter.
"Zi Qing, go make me a pot of tea." She ordered. She had forgotten to prepare water before she came in.
"Yes." Ziqing responded.
Outside.
Shangguan Yue soon appeared at the entrance of the courtyard. She glanced towards the courtyard, but did not see Zi Qing, and the door and window of the room were closed. She knew that Xie Yao had already started washing, so she ducked into the courtyard.
Then, she lowered her footsteps and tiptoed under the side window, wetted her fingers, broke the window paper and looked inside.
Although she had only entered Xie Yao's room a few times, she knew exactly where to take a bath inside. So when she looked inside, she saw a bright yellow color, and it was placed at the top!
It's far away and right before her eyes. As long as she opens the window, she can pick out the soft hedgehog armor with a pole.
She didn't expect how easy it would be. She looked happy and immediately quietly opened the window. She found a wooden stick and reached into the window to steal the soft hedgehog armor.
"Who is there?" Ziqing happened to come out with tea and saw what seemed to be a figure at the corner of the house, so she immediately shouted.
Shangguan Yue was startled when she heard the sound and quickly hid a little inside.
Seeing the figure disappear, Zi Qing was even more sure that there was someone there, and walked over directly with tea in hand, "Who is it? Come out! Don't you know this is Fuyunxuan? How dare you break in?"
Xie Yao also heard Zi Qing's words in the room, and her eyes darkened.
Someone broke into Fuyunxuan?
Seeing that Xie Yao and Zi Qing had been alarmed, Shangguan Yue looked fierce and decided to steal the soft hedgehog armor first!
What Chu Rui said made sense. Even if she took the soft hedgehog armor away by force, Xie Yao was naked and there was no time to catch her.
Ziqing clasped the plate with the teapot in her hands and quickly approached the corner, while Shangguan Yue focused all her attention on the soft hedgehog armor.
The stick she grabbed was a bit short. She stretched out her arms and the stick could reach the soft hedgehog's armor, but she failed after several attempts.
Seeing that Zi Qing had half of her body exposed from the corner of the house, Shangguan Yue felt anxious. It was too late to change the stick now. She only had this chance, she had to get the soft hedgehog armor!
Pick it hard!
Done!
Seeing that the soft hedgehog armor was finally picked up by herself, Shangguan Yue looked happy and was about to take back the stick and take the soft hedgehog armor into her hand, but found that the soft hedgehog armor seemed to have hooked something and she couldn't get it back!
"Who is sneaking around? What are you doing...Concubine? It's you!" Ziqing came over, saw Shangguan Yue's movements, shouted, and threw all the teapots and tea trays at Shangguan Yue.
past.
Shangguan Yue looked at the steaming tea rising into the sky, her facial features were distorted with fear, and she no longer cared about the soft hedgehog armor, and quickly stepped back, "Zi Qing, how dare you! Ah!"
While Ziqing finished pouring the tea, she felt a little panicked.
She thought some servant was doing something bad here. She never thought it was the concubine, so she dared to pour the tea as a warning.
Shangguan Yue's movements were very large, and after Ziqing recognized Shangguan Yue, she restrained her strength, so Shangguan Yue was not splashed with hot tea on a large area, but some of it was still stained on her ankles.
"Zi Qing, stop her!" Xie Yao's voice came from the room, cold and calm.
When Shangguan Yue heard Xie Yao's voice, she ignored the painful sting on her feet and reached back with a longer stick to pick out the soft hedgehog's armor!
She has been discovered, there is no next chance, she must take this opportunity to take away the soft hedgehog armor!
However, as soon as she held the stick firmly and was ready to take action, she saw that the soft hedgehog armor inside the window had disappeared.
Broken! Still a step too late!
She clearly didn't see Xie Yao reach for the clothes, so why did the soft hedgehog armor disappear?
Her face suddenly darkened, she stared at Zi Qing and hit him hard with a stick!
If it weren't for Ziqing, she would have succeeded!
Seeing this, Ziqing raised her hand to block it, and was hit on the arm with a stick.
She frowned and said nothing. The next second, her other hand had already grabbed it.
Shangguan Yue was shocked, remembering that Xie Yao had just ordered Zi Qing to stop her, her face suddenly darkened, and she wanted to escape.
But she was in a panic and couldn't decide which way to go. She was no match for Zi Qing, and she was blocked by Zi Qing in a corner after just a few steps.
Shangguan Yue glanced at the direction of the room, a fierce light flashed in her eyes, and she rushed towards Zi Qing, "Zi Qing, you are so brave, I am pregnant, you dare to touch me?"
Zi Qing was about to reach out to stop her, but upon hearing these words, she immediately retracted her hand subconsciously.
Shangguan Yue saw the opening and rushed out at high speed. She immediately felt severe pain in her feet and the corner of her mouth twitched in pain.
She endured it and limped out.
Xie Yao had just put on her clothes at this time, holding the soft hedgehog armor in her hand. She opened the door and saw Shangguan Yue limping away.
"Princess, I didn't stop her concubine, please punish me." Zi Qing heard the sound and came over, feeling a little depressed.
If she hadn't been worried about Shangguan Yue's belly, she would have caught Shangguan Yue very easily. Not only did she not catch him, she didn't even stop him. It's so embarrassing!
"No need. She uses the child in her belly as a threat. It is not easy to stop her." Xie Yao's eyes were a little deep.
Was it Chu Rui’s idea that Shangguan Yue came to steal the soft hedgehog armor?
Chu Rui probably wanted to force her to take a bath when she came to pour pig blood on her.
It seems that they are anxious.
"Thank you, Princess." Zi Qing stood up straight, recalled Shangguan Yue's actions, and said quickly: "Princess, the concubine seems to have come to steal something. Check quickly, is there anything missing?"
"It's not lost. I know what she wants to steal." Xie Yao picked up the soft hedgehog armor in her hand and looked at it.
"She wants to steal this? She doesn't want her life!" Zi Qing knew that the soft hedgehog armor was a gift from the late emperor, how dare Shangguan Yue steal it?
Xie Yao said nothing, her eyes fell on a thin thread on the edge of the soft hedgehog's armor.
The thread extended from the soft hedgehog armor and was tied to Xie Yao's wrist.
This is an anti-theft mechanism of gold soft hedgehog armor!
The late emperor also had such fantastic ideas that he even thought of preventing theft.
Xie Yao's lips curled up slightly.
Even if Ziqing didn't find Shangguan Yue, she still couldn't lose the soft hedgehog armor.
She had never used this mechanism before. After leaving the queen's place, she knew that someone would be thinking about the soft hedgehog armor, so she turned on this anti-theft mechanism in the last few baths.
"Princess, this Shangguan's concubine is so abominable. She must be punished, otherwise she will come back to steal!" Zi Qing said angrily.
"Why was she limping when she ran away?" Xie Yao asked, remembering Shangguan Yue's back when she ran away.
Zi Qing was a little nervous, "At first I thought it was the servant who came in secretly, so I threw the tea in my hand out. I didn't expect it was Shangguan's concubine."
"So, you poured tea on her feet?" Xie Yao thought of Shangguan Yue's embarrassing appearance after having tea poured all over her, and she wanted to laugh.
"Yes." Zi Qing gritted her teeth, "I did this thing alone and it has nothing to do with the princess! If you want to punish me, you must punish me alone!"
