The Dragon Wife and the Manor [System]

Before coming to the imperial capital, Yu Xiasheng privately asked about the situation on the night when the three-headed dog was attacked.

Thurb confirmed that the dress of those assassins was exactly the same as that of the soldiers stationed in the city of Oss.Coupled with the unique carving on the wooden handle of the arrow in Yu Xiasheng's hand, it proves that the assassin came from the Duke's Mansion.

All evidence points to Thakild.

However, Yu Xiasheng didn't believe it. If Sakild wanted to kill Portland, he could do it in the Duke's Mansion, so why should he entrust him to send Portland out of the city?

Moreover, Sakild wanted to use his own hands to assassinate Portland, and it was impossible to use the soldiers of the Duke's Mansion.

Thinking about it this way, someone should create a scene where the Duke assassinates Portland.

In this way, the reason why Sakild needs to protect Portland becomes clear.

Just as Yu Xiasheng stroked the arrow, thoughtfully.

Light snow was floating outside the window, slowly falling from the sky, and there were a few trees growing in the small yard outside the window, all their leaves had fallen.I don't know who built a crooked snowman under the tree, which looks very funny.

This made Yu Xiasheng miss Portland.

Returning to the fireplace, kissing Nigeya on the cheek, Yu Xiasheng put on a blue scarf and went out.

The maids I met along the way avoided Yu Xiasheng, completely ignored the etiquette in a hurry, and whispered in a blink of an eye, "Hey, look at that man."

"Why are there such poor people in the palace?"

Yu Xiasheng's farmer's attire would be looked down upon wherever he went.After calming down, he didn't care too much anymore. As he walked forward, he thought about how to euphemistically inquire about the location of the prince's bedroom.

While thinking about it, a maid ran over in a panic and bumped into Yu Xiasheng, and the plate she was holding in front of her almost fell to the ground.

"I'm so sorry..." Before the words of atonement came out, the maid looked Yu Xiasheng up and down, then gave Yu Xiasheng a complaining look, closed her mouth and ran away.

Yu Xiasheng froze in place, never expecting that he would be so disgusted by others.

He was a Baron after all.

Yu Xiasheng comforted himself in vain, and followed the direction the maid ran to.Soon, I saw a round of downward escalators, and there was a lively sound from the escalator mouth.

Yu Xiasheng roughly guessed that it was the kitchen.

"Be quick! The cake over there, when it's ready, send it to His Highness the Prince!" The bloated middle-aged woman commanded, turning the maids in the room into blind flies.

Yu Xiasheng hid outside the door, just happened to catch a glimpse of several jars of honey on the high shelf in the kitchen.

Nigeya hasn't had a chance to drink honey water since he went out. Maybe he should ask Portland for some honey and milk, and boil a cup of honey milk for Nigeya to adjust his mood.

Yu Xiasheng was thinking, only to hear a shout: "The cake is ready!" The door was pushed open.Yu Xiasheng quickly hid behind the door to avoid being discovered.

The cake was for Portland, so Yu Xiasheng followed without thinking too much.

From the side hall all the way to the palace of the royal family, Yu Xiasheng took out the baron's medal and fooled around a few times before getting the pass from the guards.

The maid who delivered the cake had disappeared when he entered, and Yu Xiasheng walked around a few times without seeing anyone.

"You idiot, why are you here!"

Suddenly there was an angry reprimand from behind, Yu Xiasheng turned around quickly, and saw Qiu Jiya serving beside the queen, and shouted at him: "Do you know where this is?!"

Yu Xiasheng ignored Qiu Jiya, and bowed respectfully to the Queen, "Good afternoon, Your Lady Queen."

"Your Ann, Asaros." The Queen stepped forward with a smile and said, "I heard that you brought Portland back?"

"Yes, Queen."

"That's great." The Queen covered her face with a smile, her eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and she said, "Why didn't you see Little Nigga? I'm going to have afternoon tea next time, and I have prepared a lot of delicious cakes. Will Nigg like it?"

"He's a little tired, and he's still resting in his room..." Yu Xiasheng hesitated whether to refuse, but the queen continued: "That's a pity, you can go with me instead."

Yu Xiasheng was slightly stunned, before he could refuse, the queen had already walked around him and walked to the front, Qiu Jiaya behind him glanced at him, and said coldly, "Still not following?"

Yu Xiasheng had no choice but to stand up and follow.

Pushing open the door of the bedroom in Portland, a brightly dressed little boy waited respectfully in the room. When he saw the Queen, he greeted the Queen and saluted, "Your Majesty the Queen."

"Portland!" The queen stepped forward with a smile on her face and picked up the boy, completely looking like a grandma who had been away from her grandson for a long time, "I finally see you!"

"Grandma!" Portland hugged the queen, his little face was flushed, very cute.

"Have a cup of afternoon tea with me after a long time, Portland." After finishing speaking, the queen waved, and Churchia hurriedly arranged for the maids to put desserts and tea on the table.

The Queen whispered something while holding Portland in her arms, causing Portland to burst out laughing.

Yu Xiasheng was sitting on pins and needles beside him, but Qiu Jiya looked skillful, brewing black tea calmly.

"Really, did you meet any bad guys on the road?" The queen stared at Yu Xiasheng thoughtfully, which made Yu Xiasheng's heart feel cold, only to hear Qiu Jiaya beside him say: "Prince, don't worry, those who attacked you The culprit has been caught."

"Caught it!?"

Yu Xiasheng stood up excitedly, and when he met Qiu Jiya's slightly angry gaze, he realized that he had overstepped, and hurriedly sat back on the chair.

"Of course." The Queen put down the Portland and took a sip of black tea.

"Queen forgive me, may I ask who the criminal is..." That arrow cast a big shadow on Yu Xiasheng's heart. If he couldn't meet the mastermind with his own eyes, Yu Xiasheng might not feel at ease.

The wrinkles at the corners of the queen's eyes became more and more obvious as her smile deepened. She slowly put down the cup and said, "Of course it is Mr. Sakild who intends to rebel."

Thatkild? !

As if struck by lightning, Yu Xiasheng froze in place without speaking.Portland was also quite surprised. He looked at the queen with an uncertain expression, grabbed the sleeve of the queen with his small hand, and whispered: "But, it was Sakild who saved..."

"It's useless to say more." The Queen pushed Portland's hand away, her eyes turned cold, "Azalos, do you have any questions?"

"No...but isn't Sakield not in the capital?" Recalling Rand's words in the morning, Sakield should arrive in the capital two days later.

"If you don't believe me," Qiu Jiya brought the brewed black tea in front of Yu Xiasheng, glanced at Yu Xiasheng with her slender eyes, and said unhurriedly, "You can see it with your own eyes."

The moment the voice fell, the system's notification sounded in Yu Xiasheng's mind.

[Remaining lifespan of the host: 25 years in August; task content: safely rescue Sakild; task time is not limited, please arrange the time reasonably for the host, task difficulty: ☆☆☆☆☆]

……

At night, there is light snow outside.

Yu Xiasheng brought a jar of honey from Portland, made a cup of honey milk for Nigeya before going to bed, and put Nigeya to sleep.

The queen's words in the morning are still echoing in her mind.Yu Xiasheng still couldn't believe that Sakild would do such a thing.

Stupid and reckless.

He remembered the permission he had received from Churchia, allowing him to enter the dungeon just once to check on Thakild's situation.

"Are you going out again?"

Nigeya didn't know when he woke up. He sat on the bed and said to Yu Xiasheng, "I'll accompany you."

"Sleep more." Yu Xiasheng walked up to Nigeya and pushed him back on the bed.Nigeya pursed his lips in dissatisfaction, and poked Yu Xiasheng's waist with his tail, "Don't sleep."

"Neil needs to sleep." Yu Xiasheng pinched Nigeya's face and ordered.

Nigeya was upset, and rolled Yu Xiasheng onto the bed with his tail, holding him down to keep him from moving.Neil, who had rolled to the side, flinched, and pulled up his scarf in a daze to wrap himself in a blue ball.

"Nigeya." Yu Xiasheng looked at Nigeya helplessly, wondering what he was going to do.

"Show me the wound." Nigeya began to peel off Yu Xiasheng's clothes, and Yu Xiasheng let him run amok until the inner lining was disgusted, revealing his bandaged chest.

Nigeya touched the wound, and the raised tail fell down weakly.

"I'm fine." Yu Xiasheng touched Nigeya's face.

The repair of the system completely took effect, leaving only a hideous wound on Yu Xiasheng's chest, and his heart was not affected at all.

"There is a scar." Nigeya reluctantly untied the bandage, and got out of bed to take medicine for Yu Xiasheng.

Yu Xiasheng sat up, waiting for Nigeya to give him medicine, bandage, and finally put on his clothes.After Nigeya finished everything, he quietly hugged Nigeya and looked out the window.

"What." Nigeya was very curious about what was outside the window, but when he looked around, there was only snow rising and falling with the wind, so he couldn't see anything.

"Come with me, Nigga."

Yu Xiasheng still couldn't let go of his worries, so he had to agree with Nigeya to accompany him.

Nigeya nodded, got up and picked up the overcoat to protect against the cold.

The two walked a long way with lanterns before they found the entrance to the palace dungeon.This is a secluded corner at the corner of the palace, next to the barracks.When the soldier saw the stranger, he wanted to step forward to stop him, but the general behind him yelled and stepped back to salute, "I'm sorry, my lord baron."

Yu Xiasheng took off his hood and entered the dungeon under the guidance of the soldiers.

The damp air in the dungeon was bone-chillingly cold, and the candle lights were weak, but they dazzled sorely in the eyes.Yu Xiasheng held Nigeya's hand tightly and went to the dungeon. The soldiers welcomed Yu Xiasheng into one of the secret doors. At the end of the dark corridor, there was only one candle light.

"Please hurry up." The soldier stood guard in front of the secret door and ordered.

Yu Xiasheng took a deep breath and walked to the end of the corridor.Hearing the noise, the man in the prison didn't move his head. He lowered his voice and said with a contemptuous smile, "Don't think that I will plead guilty, Qiu Jia."

"It's me, Thatkild."

Yu Xiasheng stopped in front of the prison door and raised the candle lamp in his hand, reflecting each other's faces.
