Quick Wear: Pampering Your Lover

Chapter 27: Early Death Background Board Becomes Group Favorite (4)

Zhu Xi's original name was Mi Yin, and he was the only son of Mi Yushi.

That day, Mi Yushi's close friend Zhu Shangshu noticed something unusual hidden under the calm, and hurriedly sent someone to report the news, but he only had time to hide Mi Yin.

They also found another corpse that was somewhat similar to Mi Yin and threw it into the yard. When the officers and soldiers saw the corpse, they thought that it was an enemy of Mi Yushi who had killed his only son in advance, so they reported it to the emperor without thinking too much.

Fortunately, Mi Yin was in poor health at that time and few people had seen him, so he was able to hide the truth.

From then on, Mi Yin became Zhu Xi, the third son of the Zhu family who was in poor health and had been recuperating from illness.

Zhu Xi calmed down at this moment, and looked towards the desk with a dark and deep gaze. Among the piles of documents and files, there was a crucial piece of evidence hidden - evidence that Master Meng was selling private salt and raising private soldiers.

No rush, it's not time yet...

......

After Qi Shanyu left the court, he readily entered Mingzhen's courtyard.

He waved his hand, signaling the maids to leave and not wake her up. As soon as Qi Shanyu walked into Mingzhen's room, a faint fragrance lingered at the tip of her nose, the same as the one on her body.

His heart trembled slightly, and he sat on the edge of the bed, looking at her rosy sleeping face with satisfaction.

Mingzhen has always been restless when she sleeps. Half of her legs are stretched out of the quilt, her arms are still hugging the quilt, her cheeks are flushed, and her red lips are slightly raised. It is obvious that she is sleeping soundly.

Qi Shanyu raised her hand to cover her with the quilt, but Mingzhen, finding the source of heat, immediately hugged her arm. He didn't move, and even climbed onto the couch beside her, pulling her into his arms with his other hand.

As if the emptiness in his heart was finally filled, Qi Shanyu gently stroked the black hair of the person in his arms and slowly closed his eyes.

Perhaps it was the alluring fragrance, or perhaps it was something else, but Qi Shanyu fell into a peaceful sleep.

An hour later, Mingzhen kicked him under the bed.

The days passed one by one. Mingzhen ate and drank in the mansion every day, enjoying the care of everyone. Occasionally, Shao Yi would secretly climb over the wall to find her, bringing her many expensive gifts and delicious cakes. After coming and going, he finally coaxed Mingzhen into submission.

However, Shao Yi rarely came recently, and seemed to be busy with something, so Mingzhen didn't ask much.

In late winter, the weather is still cold, but the snow falls less and less every day until it stops.

The ground is covered with a thick layer of snow, like a huge white velvet blanket

Mingzhen guessed that this should be the last snow of the year. It turned out that she had been staying in Qi Mansion for more than a month without realizing it.

It was a rare early morning for Mingzhen. She sat by the window, bored and looking at the snowy scene. A voice came from the door asking, "Miss, may I come in?"

"come in."

Ah Yue blushed when she heard the soft voice, and hurried in with the basin of water.

As soon as she stepped into the house, she saw a stunning beauty leaning lazily against the window. She had not yet done her makeup, her black hair was hanging down, she was wearing a moon-white nightgown and a red rabbit fur cloak. Her skin was as white as the snow outside the window, but the color of her lips was like the red plum blossoms she placed on the wooden table to admire, which complemented the color of the cloak and immediately impacted her vision.

The fairy-like lady smiled at her and said, "Ayue? Why are you stunned?"

"Miss, you are so beautiful. I have never seen anyone prettier than you..." Ah Yue's face flushed as she helped Mingzhen with her makeup. "Miss, are you going to the banquet at the Meng Mansion today?"

"Go ahead."

She remembered the invitation to the Xixue Banquet sent by the Meng Mansion a few days ago. Today was the day of the banquet. Mingzhen would naturally go to such a good opportunity.

After finishing her makeup, Mingzhen looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction and was about to leave the house.

Ah Yue quickly advised: "Miss, the master of the family hasn't returned yet, aren't you going to wait for him?"

The master of the house was worried about the young lady going out alone, so he specifically instructed her to stay and wait for him to come back so that they could go to the Meng Mansion for the banquet together.

"No, Ah Yue, good Ah Yue, the banquet isn't even over yet, let's take this opportunity to go to the market outside. My brother keeps me under control all the time, and I'm getting moldy!"

But seeing his young lady looking so cute, he couldn't bear to refuse.

After all, the young lady usually stayed in her room, as if she was very timid about the outside world. But as they got along day by day and the master took care of her gently every day, the young lady finally became a little braver.

While she was still hesitating, Mingzhen pulled her out of the house, so A Yue swallowed the words on her lips, followed her lady's wishes and stopped persuading her.

There were people coming and going on the street. Mingzhen, wearing a hat to cover his face, looked around curiously with A Yue. He accidentally bumped into someone and almost knocked him down.

When Mingzhen looked back, he saw a very handsome young man staggering from the impact, so he quickly supported him and asked, "I'm sorry, are you okay?"

"Ahem..." The young man was wearing a robe embroidered with elegant bamboo leaf patterns, wrapped in thick fox fur, and with only a mutton-fat jade hairpin pinned on his hair. His eyes were clear and innocent, and his face seemed to have a faint blush on it because he was supported by a strange woman, but his lips had slightly lost their color, as if he was a little unwell.

"It's my poor health, don't blame the girl..." The young man had a lonely look in his eyes and started coughing again and again.

Mingzhen was a little worried when he saw him like this. "Sir, why don't you come with me to see a doctor?"

"No need." He pursed his lips a little embarrassedly, his expression fragile. "I've been in very poor health since I was a child, and my father never let me leave the house, fearing that my condition would worsen. I ran away secretly today..."

Mingzhen looked behind him and found that he did not bring any servants with him.

Look, what a lovable, simple, and sickly beauty. It would be terrible if she was abducted.

Mingzhen ignored Ah Yue's attempts to stop him and invited him, "My name is Qi Zhenyu. Why don't you come with me for a stroll?"

The young man's eyes lit up, but then he hesitated a little, "Forget it, I'm afraid of being a burden to the girl. Although I don't have any friends, I can walk around alone..."

How sensible! Mingzhen had some feelings for this well-behaved and sickly young man, so he deliberately said, "It's okay. Don't you want to treat me as a friend?"

"That's not the case! I do!" The tip of the young master's nose turned red from the cold, making him look even more fragile. At this moment, he looked at Mingzhen with bright eyes.

Mingzhen's heart softened a little when she was looked at. She felt that she had tasted a little of what it meant to be an older sister. It was a bit novel for her. It was true that people would feel compassion for fragile and beautiful things.

She put the hot water bottle in her hand into his and pulled him into a treasure house.

A Yue hurriedly followed, but she felt something was wrong in her heart. She glared at the back of the head of the young man who pretended to be weak in front of the young lady, feeling very displeased.

This man kidnapped the young lady with just a few words. We must be vigilant!

Kong Ji, who was hiding in the dark, watched his young master deliberately bump into her first, and then successfully kidnapped Miss Azhen after a series of operations. He felt a little impressed.

Kong Ji was a little panicked when he saw the young master like this for the first time (fearing that he would be silenced).

Kong Ji had always kept a proper distance from the three people. His hearing had always been very good, and at this moment he could still hear the conversation between the young master and Miss Azhen.

"But what's your name? You haven't told me yet!"

"My name is Zhu Xi..."

"Could it be the young master of Minister Zhu's family..."

The sunlight shone on them, outlining their beautiful silhouettes. Kong Ji looked at the two people walking side by side, and felt that they were so well-matched that a hint of loss flashed in his eyes.

He slowly lowered his eyes, trying to remain calm and bury the throbbing deep in his heart.
