As she spoke, she turned around and took out a piece of mutton-fat jade from the dressing box, with her last name engraved on it.

He took Xu Huan's hand and put the jade into her palm.

"The tentacles are warm, it is really an excellent jade."

Putting the jade into the bag they carried with them, they all knew in their hearts that if they waited until that day, Xu Huan and Aunt Mei left and disappeared from the capital, they would probably not be able to see each other again for the rest of their lives.

"As for the old lady, are you willing to let her go?"

Xu Huan shook his head, "Let her go? How is it possible? My mother was killed by her. If she didn't kill her one by one, she would have done her best. You don't need to worry. It only took two days for her to die. Besides, Meilan and I are not in a hurry, we can only feel relieved when we watch her being buried with our own eyes."

When Xu Huan mentioned the old lady, he wished he could strangle her to death with his own hands.

"When that old guy dies and Meilan and I leave, you will be alone again in the Marquis' Mansion."

As he said that, the atmosphere was a little sad, and the two of them just sat in silence, not knowing what to say.

"It's getting late, so I'll go back first, and you can rest early."

Xu Huan stood up and smoothed his sleeves. A trace of struggle flashed in his eyes, trying to hold back what he wanted to say.

Lin Qingwu also noticed it. After knowing her for so long, he still somewhat understood her temperament.

"Auntie, you can just say whatever you want to say."

"Since you said so, I won't hide it from you.

Meilan and I discussed that we wanted to escape by setting fire to Xingyu Pavilion. Then we would just need to find two dead women of similar stature and throw them in. But... you would also need to be present to be a personal witness. "

Lin Qingwu really didn't expect that she would have such a bold idea, but now this is indeed an excellent escape strategy.

Seeing Lin Qingwu not speaking, Xu Huan thought she was unwilling.

"If you don't want to, I won't force you."

"Auntie, what are you talking about? I was just thinking about how to find the two female corpses. I didn't mean to be unwilling."

Xu Huan breathed a sigh of relief, "You don't have to worry about this. People die every day in Kyoto. It's not difficult to find someone of similar stature. In short, I won't kill others because of myself."

Seeing that he had almost said what needed to be said, and it was already getting late, Lin Qingwu opened the door and took Xu Huan to the entrance of the courtyard.

After walking not far, I saw someone standing at the door of my courtyard. Looking at the figure, I guessed who it was.

Qi Zhixuan had been waiting for a while, and he guessed that she was back when he heard the familiar footsteps behind him.

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you that you don't have to come to me if you have nothing to do?"

Xu Huan said angrily.

"Can I...can I go in and talk?"

Looking at his thin clothes, Xu Huan didn't have the heart to let him stand outside like this.

"You come in first. If you have anything to say, go back early."

Qi Zhixuan was not annoyed, so he followed obediently, entered the room and sat down, drinking the hot tea she poured.

"The rouge shop in the east of the city has several new styles. I bought them all for you. If you have some free time, you can try them and see if you like them."

As he spoke, he took out six small porcelain jars from his arms and arranged them neatly in a row.

"It's so late and it's so cold, why do you come here to tell me this?"

Xu Huan's face looked very ugly, and he even looked at the rouge jars on the table.

Qi Zhixuan also felt that she was angry and a little at a loss. After all these years, he still couldn't figure out why she was unhappy.

"Huan'er, if you don't like what I do for you, you can tell me what you like and I'll just go and buy it." After saying this, he lowered his head and said nothing. He knew that Huan'er I don't like him.

But... the book says that as long as you are truly kind to someone, she will feel it.

After so many years, he felt that he had never treated her harshly. She was the only first wife in the family, and she had never even had a common roommate. He could do this, so he didn't know why she was unhappy.

On the contrary, she has always been cold to him, and he has never seen her smile in all these years.

Xu Huan also realized that his tone might be a little harsh, but the words he spoke were like water thrown out, and he could never take them back.

"You go back, soak your feet and rest early."

After saying that, he turned around and sat down at the dressing table to remove the hairpin from his head.

Qi Zhixuan also knew that she was preparing to rest by doing this. If he were at Qi's house, he could still lay on the floor and at least be in the same room with her. But now that he was in Wudinghou Mansion, he could only go back to his own room. sleep.

"You should rest early..."

After saying this, he opened the door and left.

For some reason, Xu Huan vaguely felt that he must know something.

But so what, I have been waiting for so many years, and I have already had enough of that kind of life.

No one can stop her next plan.

The next day, two corpses were brought to the door of Wudinghou Mansion in a cart pulled by officials, which frightened the boy who opened the door.

"Someone is coming quickly! Go and call the Crown Prince!"

Xu Songchi walked out of the room with a dark face, unable to sleep peacefully so early in the morning.

"What's the fuss about? There are no rules!"

"Your Majesty! Go to the door and have a look!"

The boy was so frightened that his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground. The frightened expression on his face made Xu Songchi's heart sink.

Before he had gone far, the government officials directly pulled the car into the yard and pulled the body into the yard.

Lin Qingwu also heard the sound and happened to bump into Xu Songchi.

The two of them looked at each other with disgust and felt bad luck.

An officer and soldier came forward and bowed his hands.

"Your Majesty, Madam, I am also following orders to send back my deceased relatives. If there is nothing else to do now, I will go back first."

"Nonsense! Why didn't my prince know that someone had passed away in the Hou Mansion? Could it be that he was sent to the wrong place?"

Xu Songchi scolded sternly, looking very angry.

Lingying calmly stuffed some broken silver into the hands of the officers and soldiers who came.

"Thank you, everyone, since it is really hard to come here anyway, it is freezing cold, it would be good to go back and drink some hot tea."

Those officers and soldiers received the money, and their attitude was very good, "Thank you, madam, for the reward. The work of the subordinate has been completed. What to do with the rest depends on the madam's wishes."

After saying that, they turned around and waved their hands, and they left the Hou Mansion.

"Someone, take these two inexplicable corpses out and throw them away."

After saying that, Xu Songchi wanted to turn around and leave, just thinking that he could sleep a little longer when he went back.
