Bright Spring

Chapter 571

The next day was New Year's Eve, and the camp of the Chinese Army in Hengzhou was decorated with lanterns and streamers.The battle is not over yet, and the festive atmosphere is not as strong as usual, but it has gradually taken on a festive look.

After nightfall, those red lanterns hanging under the eaves of the quaint mountaintops are even more colorful.

After Xu Niangzi and Duan Xuehen returned to their wing, the maid came in with a bucket of hot water, and they all prepared to wash up before going to bed.

Unexpectedly, at this time, the King of Han suddenly appeared at the door.The door was still open at the moment, he was wearing a red five-claw dragon suit, and walked in with his head lowered so as not to touch his head.

Madam Xu was nervous for a while, and her face became a little unnatural, she hurriedly stood up and bowed her knees and made a blessing: "I have met His Highness the King of Han." On the contrary, Duan Xuehen had no etiquette at all, she just stood up silently.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Miss Xu, you don't need to be too polite."

He went on to say: "It's really helpless to bother you at night. You don't have to worry too much. Because I went back to Hengzhou City after dark, and then went to Wangfei's place first, it was getting late; and tomorrow morning I will go out. So coming here to see you now is a way of saying goodbye."

Hanwang's "you" made Miss Xu raise her head and glanced at him.But Miss Xu soon understood that it was just a polite word; the King of Han didn't remember himself, he was just here to see Duan Xuehen.

Duan Xuehen finally opened his mouth and said: "Is the prince leaving again tomorrow?"

Zhu Gaoxu nodded and said, "It should be the last time this king's 'Battle of Sin' has gone out."

Xu Niangzi immediately said with interest: "There is a side room next door, which has everything, and I am about to clean it up. I will leave."

Zhu Gaoxu nodded his head.

After she said that, she walked out of the door and came to the side room next to her.There are a large number of eunuchs and maids accompanying the royal family. Of course, Lady Xu doesn't have to work, she's just looking for an excuse; it doesn't matter if it makes sense.

Miss Xu carried a lantern and walked into the inner bedroom boredly, wanting to see if there was a quilt.Unexpectedly, the bed was empty and there was nothing.Miss Xu looked back at the bedroom and found a large cabinet against the wall, so she walked over to open the wooden door and looked at the things inside.

Unexpectedly, as soon as it was opened, a light came out of the cabinet!It was the light from the next wing.

Miss Xu was stunned for a moment.She soon understood what was going on... This big mansion, before it was confiscated by the Han Dynasty army, was of course not a Chinese army camp, it was just a mansion of a wealthy family.In the original owner's house, some secret stories seemed to have happened between these two wing rooms.

There was something sneaky in the past, and Ms. Xu could no longer know the inside story.But right now, she suddenly became very curious about what Han Wang and Duan Xuehen were doing next door.

Duan Xuehen has new wounds on his body from time to time, and Miss Xu has long guessed that it was the King of Han!Because no one except the King of Han would dare to abuse Duan Xuehen like this?I don't know if that kind of thing will happen today, Ms. Xu wants to make sure.

Ms. Xu glanced at the hole in the wall first, and saw that there were two beds inside, which were exactly the bedroom they had slept in.But there is no one in the bedroom right now.

After thinking about it, she walked out of the cabinet and closed the wooden door first.She went out and bolted the door of the wing, and on returning to the bedroom she blew out the lantern, then went into the cupboard again and looked into the little hole.

After waiting for a while, I saw King Han and Duan Xuehan coming to the bedroom!Lady Xu knew that Zhu Gaoxu was coming, and she wouldn't just say a few words or say goodbye.

Duan Xuehen's face turned red with shame, showing no expression of fear at all.Lady Xu became even more curious and puzzled, she thought to herself: Could it be that Duan Xuehen is not afraid of being tortured|torted so many times and being abused by the King of Han?

Xuehen's voice said: "Why does the prince treat me so well?"

When Xu Niangzi heard this, she was confused.

Zhu Gaoxu's voice said: "Every time you ask like that, my heart hurts. But I know that you have a knot in your heart; it's just that I didn't know what was going on before.

When Mrs. Duan Yang said it that day, I understood it.It is true that you cannot be blamed for that incident, you are also a victim; but if these words are spoken by Duan Yang, it may be more effective.Are you feeling better? "

Lady Xu thought to herself: Who is Mrs. Duan Yang?What is the "that thing" you said?

Xue Hen suddenly grabbed Zhu Gaoxu's arm, and said in a trembling voice: "When the lord says this, I will... the more your heart hurts, the more I can't help myself."

Xu Niangzi's face suddenly became | hot: "..."

Duan Xuehen, who is usually taciturn and seems to have no desires, did not expect to be like this behind his back, and dare to say anything embarrassing.Duan Xuehen's voice said again: "You must not let me go."

Xu Niangzi continued to look at the two figures inside, and after a while, she wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in; she felt a little relieved when she realized that no one had found her...

After an unknown amount of time, the bedroom next door became quiet.Then, Ms. Xu heard Zhu Gaoxu's comforting words were very gentle, and he also said strange things like "crazy car repair".Xu Niangzi was confused, as if she understood what was going on, but she didn't seem to understand why.

The King of Han and Duan Xuehen talked for a while next door, and then the King of Han left.After waiting for a while, Miss Xu vaguely heard the "creak" sound of the door next door opening.

Ms. Xu timidly walked out of the cabinet and closed the door.Only then did she take out the torch and blow it on, and relighted the lantern.

She glanced at the unmade bed, restless, and didn't want to do anything at all.Now she also feels that she has no strength in her body, her legs are weak and she doesn't want to stand up, so she just sits there in a daze.

Seeing is believing, Ms. Xu finally understood why she saw Duan Xuehen with injuries from time to time.

Xu Niangzi never dreamed that those injuries came from this way!She suddenly understood that she had been wronging Zhu Gaoxu all along.Her mind has been in chaos for a long time, as if there are two round white clouds in her mind, turbulent in the wind; and like the blurred weather, raindrops are swaying in the air.

Lady Xu stayed there for a long time, and she really didn't want to tidy up the dilapidated house, let alone make the bed. She became completely impatient, and felt as if she had lost her soul.

She finally stood up, went back to the door next door, knocked on the door and went in.

When Duan Xuehen opened the door, she had already put on her obscene clothes, her black hair was messily draped over her shoulders, and there were still tears in her eyes.Lady Xu glanced at her, said nothing, and walked into the room silently.

"The bed next door is not made, so I still sleep in my own bed." Miss Xu said.

Duan Xuehen nodded expressionlessly, it seemed that she was still the same as usual, as if she was a relatively boring person.Ms. Xu was already used to her appearance, but now seeing that expression again, Ms. Xu always felt weird in her heart.

Ms. Xu went into the house to tidy up, then turned on the lamp and went to bed.But she couldn't fall asleep anyway, thinking about that mysterious person Zhu Gaoxu over and over again.

"Crack!" Miss Xu turned over again.

Duan Xuehen is a very vigilant person, her voice said in the dark: "Don't worry, you are not in any danger. You will be able to go home soon."

Ms. Xu finally said, "Actually, I don't really want to go back."

Duan Xuehen made a surprised voice: "Oh?"

Miss Xu couldn't help but said: "I'm used to staying in Hanwang Mansion, and I seem to have a place here even during festivals. But at home, I'm a superfluous person; what's worse than this is that they It made me feel that I would be better off without me..."

Duan Xuehen didn't respond, and remained silent for a long time in the dark.

But Ms. Xu knew that of course Xue Hen would not fall asleep suddenly, she should be thinking about what she just said.

Sure enough, after a while, Duan Xuehen's voice said: "I can't take care of you, and when that happens, I won't take care of you anymore."

Ms. Xu responded with a "hmm", and she really wanted to ask: What exactly is "that matter".But once asked, didn't he just confess that he was peeking just now?Miss Xu hesitated for a while, then held back her silence.

The conversation between the two fell silent for no reason.From time to time, Miss Xu thought about Zhu Gaoxu's appearance when he was wearing a tuanlong suit, and also thought about his sweaty arms, and the different expressions on that face also appeared in the dark in a mess.

She suddenly discovered that the feeling at this time was the same as that of being next door just now.He clearly knew it was wrong, but fortunately no one would find out, so he was relieved a lot.

With such relief, Miss Xu began to think more boldly. She imagined that Zhu Gaoxu's words of comfort to Duan Xuehen just now were said by looking into her eyes; his hands were also on her body.

Xu Niangzi let out a sound from her nose and turned over again.

Duan Xuehen suddenly asked coldly: "Did you see something next door just now?"

Xu Niangzi trembled all over, feeling that a basin of cold water had been poured on her head, she immediately said, "What did you see? Why did Xue Hen say that?"

Duan Xue hated to answer.The topic came to an end again.
