The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

After playing nice with the old marquis's wife for nearly an hour, he finally found a chance to get rid of her and return to his own yard.

She almost missed her nap. When she changed out of her going-out clothes and lay down on the couch, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The backyards in ancient times were full of twists and turns. There were only a few people in total, and they were all very smart. You had to be very careful with your words, for fear of falling into the other party's trap.

At this moment, she was hoping that Prince Ping would act faster. Of course, it would be best if Chu Hongyi and Lu Jiaojiao came back early. She couldn't leave the Marquis of Pingxi's Mansion without even seeing them.

You always have to show your face in front of them, otherwise when you take revenge on them later, they probably won't know why you did it and will feel confused.

If she left early, it would be a bit strange to come to see the other party deliberately. She mainly wanted to see the other person's face.

After all, she had practiced cultivation in her first life. She might not be very talented in making elixirs and drawing talismans, and she needed an spiritual environment and the assistance of spiritual herbs and medicines, but she was quite proficient in physiognomy.

And this does not require spiritual energy. Facial features are innate to people. Except for some unexpected changes, it is most likely accurate.

In fact, she had also looked at the old marquis's wife and the other two. The facial features of the old marquis's wife and the marquis's wife were consistent with their life trajectories, with no difference. This showed that her physiognomy skills were still useful here, and there was no omission just because it was a derived small world.

As for Pingxi Hou and Chu Hongwen, she had only been there for two days and had not yet met them formally. The two men must have been busy, leaving early and returning late, so she had never met them.

Of course, it is also possible that he was busy with Chu Hongyi's return. The original body didn't know it at that time because she didn't care about it. Xiao Yun knew that it was impossible for Chu Hongyi, a missing person, to suddenly return and just come back with his wife.

Even if Lu Jiaojiao's father Jian is in the emperor's heart, it doesn't mean that he can help Chu Hongyi clear the crime of desertion. Deserting from the battlefield is a taboo. Even if he has lost his memory, it is excusable. The royal family will not care about this. Even if they don't ask for punishment, they will at least hold him accountable.

Besides, who knows if you were captured and surrendered to the enemy? It is very likely that you came back to be a spy. So it is very likely that Pingxi Hou and Chu Hongwen were busy these two days just to build relationships. That’s why Chu Hongyi’s return in his previous life was so smooth.

I'm afraid the entire Marquis's Mansion is secretly helping to arrange this, and only the original body, who is kept in the back house and is deliberately kept from the news, would not be unaware of this.

And there was Lu Jiaojiao. There were many things that didn't seem right about her, so she wanted to stay until they came back to see each other, and she also wanted to observe each other carefully.

The original body's first wish was to find out the cause of her death. Although she thought she had guessed that it was Lu Jiaojiao who did it, the question of how she did it was still a question.

The epidemic is not so easy for the original body, who never goes out of the house. Although the epidemic is highly contagious, it also requires contact with the source of infection, so she suspected that someone brought the source of infection to the original body.

Putting aside other things, she was afraid that there were people around her who had been bribed. It would be best to find them here and deal with them, so as to avoid the difficulty of finding them after she left.

It would be even more disgusting if this bomb explodes again in the future.

As she was thinking, she slowly fell asleep. After all, she had been out, chatted with her grandmother and aunt for the whole morning, and dealt with the old marquis's wife for an hour. She was quite tired.

Although her grandmother's side is her relative, they are her original self and are actually strangers to her. She was afraid of being exposed, so she was very nervous throughout the whole process. She was fine physically, but she was very tired mentally, so she still needed to rest.

When she woke up, it was already dinner time. She still went to Tai'an Courtyard to have dinner by herself. No one came to call her, so she didn't have to go there to have dinner with them.

It was also in the original body's memory that unless there were special circumstances, each college would use it for its own purposes.

I guess everyone has the same idea. No one wants to put on a show while eating for fear of not being able to digest the food. It’s better to just stay at home and eat whatever they want.

Xiao Yun thought that she would just wait like this until Chu Hongyi brought Lu Jiaojiao back, but she didn't expect that in the middle of the next night when she was half asleep, she heard someone knocking gently on her window.

After Xiao Yun came, he no longer asked Hong Ling and the others to keep watch at night. He let them go back to the side room to sleep, so she was the only one who heard the sound of knocking on the window.

Xiao Yun got up from the bed, put on his coat, and walked towards the window.

This window faces east, and outside there is a corridor leading to the central courtyard and the back garden, as well as a small flower bed. When it is opened, it can let in light and enjoy the scenery.

There is a table under the window, where I usually write and paint, which can be regarded as a way to cultivate my sentiments.

Xiao Yun walked to the table and asked softly, "Who is it?"

Since the other party was knocking on the window instead of breaking it in, he should be a friend rather than an enemy.

"Miss Xiao, it's the king."

Xiao Yun was stunned. This was King Ping's voice. Why would he come here in the middle of the night?

While thinking about it, he quickly opened the window, and then he was stunned again.

She saw a man in black standing outside the window, his face covered tightly with only his eyes exposed. Before she could react, the man jumped in from the window and gently closed the window.

There was an oil lamp lit in the room at night. It was not as bright as a candle, but it allowed her to see nothing when she got up at night.

When King Ping came in, he did not say anything at the first moment. Instead, he walked to the table, picked up the teapot and started drinking from the spout.

Xiao Yun raised his hand to stop him, but the other party had already taken several sips, so he put his hand down, thinking that it was herbal tea. Even though it was the middle of the night and it was brewed last night, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't get a stomachache after drinking it.

But the other person has already drunk it, and you can’t ask him to spit it out, so I won’t say anything more.

After the other party put down the teapot, Xiao Yun said: "Why did the prince come to me in the middle of the night? I haven't divorced yet. It will be bad for the prince's reputation if it gets out."

Prince Ping raised his eyebrows, "You mean, after you divorce me, I can visit your boudoir at night? Miss Xiao, is this only true for me, or for other men outside?"
