Chapter 8 The Story of the Crab 3

As the saying goes, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, and everyone in Xiao's old house is happy.Only our senior scholar Xiao can't be happy alone, because there are always people at the dinner table to raise a glass to congratulate him on his upcoming wedding.One glass after another, even if it is not strong alcohol, it is still unbearable for Xiao Dashi, who does not drink alcohol on weekdays.

It wasn't until a servant came to report that the Seventeenth Prince was here, and then everyone let go of the person who was almost drunk to death.

"It's been so many years that I haven't noticed that Master Xiao is also a drinker." Zhu Luoyu's icy words froze in an instant so that all the people present shuddered, shivered several times, and backed away.

And our Grand Scholar Xiao was already suffering from being forced to drink a few glasses of wine. At this time, after hearing Zhu Luoyu's sarcasm, he directly counterattacked without thinking: "That's not half as good as the prince."

Zhu Luoyu raised his eyebrows, and a smile appeared on his handsome face: "Why don't you pretend to have amnesia?"

The muscles on Master Xiao's face twitched, and he passed out immediately.Fortunately, Lord Wang made a timely move so that he didn't fall to the ground.

"Master is too fake." The butler, who had witnessed everything, put on a loveless expression and went forward to pull the crab in the hands of Grand Maester La Xiao, who was still holding on to it even after he passed out, feeling deeply sorry.

His lord glanced at the bitten crab and said calmly, "How long will your lord Xiao want to stay in this king's arms?"

Master Xiao closed his eyes tightly, secretly let go of the crab he was holding and let it fall into the hands of the steward, then stroked Zhu Luoyu's back with both hands, and finally put his arms around his neck to complain He said: "Don't make noise, you have a headache..."

The corner of the butler's mouth couldn't help but twitched again, and he complained from the bottom of his heart: You're so naive, you even secretly wiped the crab oil from your fingers on the prince's clothes to take revenge, naive... naive...

However, His Excellency just glanced at the weak-looking Senior Scholar Xiao with his eyes, and then he hugged him horizontally and took a step forward without saying a word.

The butler saw the straight back of the prince, and observed that his master was still pretending to be dead and did not wake up, so he turned around and left with Miss Pang Xie in the stunned mode of a large table of people.

The sun sets and the moon rises, and the stars dot the night sky.

Xiao Dashi, who was carried back to the palace by the lord himself, finally couldn't stand it after holding his body for half an hour.

He opened his eyes pretendingly, and then sat up after making sure that no one was watching him around the edge of the bed.

"Why did Lord Xiao recover?"

Just when Master Xiao was about to get out of bed and slip back, suddenly Zhu Luoyu's familiar voice came over. Master Xiao was stunned and immediately followed the sound, and saw that His Excellency had changed his clothes and was sitting at a table not far away. Enjoy tea and pastries very much.

"Minister..." Senior Madam Xiao was thinking of excuses, but he softened rather spinelessly after meeting the chilling gaze of His Excellency: "I'm hungry."

"If my king remembers correctly, Mr. Xiao had dinner in the old house." Zhu Luoyu put down his teacup and looked into the eyes of Master Xiao.

Master Xiao slowly came to sit next to the prince, "I'm not full after drinking." After speaking, he was about to reach for the pastry on the plate, but of course he withdrew his hand again under the angry stare of a certain prince Going back: "I'm hungry..." The soft voice was full of grievances.

Zhu Luoyu stared at the people around him for a while, maybe it was because of drinking wine, at this time, the flushed cheeks of Senior Master Xiao were quite different from his previous appearance, in the end Zhu Luoyu still called for someone to deliver the meal that had been prepared Come in.

"I knew that Xiaoyu was the best for me." Looking at the table full of food, Senior Madam Xiao narrowed his eyes happily, and praised His Excellency without hesitation.

Satisfied with wine and food, after the meal, when Master Xiao was holding his swollen belly to savor the taste of the food with great satisfaction, the butler came. Not only that, but behind him was Miss Pang Xie and a strange man.

"The woman and the husband thank you, my lord, for your life-saving grace." Before Master Xiao had time to see the man's appearance clearly, Pang Xie pulled him to his knees and kowtowed.

Master Xiao took a look at the prince who was drinking tea again, and saw that he was not interested in the two people on the ground at all, so he said to himself: "Get up quickly, and live a good life in the future!"

After hearing the words, the two kowtowed again before walking out with the housekeeper.

"Satisfied?" After the two left, His Excellency turned the teacup and looked at Master Xiao and asked.

"Hey..." Xiao Dashi smiled apologetically.

It turned out that a few days ago, Master Xiao went out to the Wang Pozi tofu shop on the street to drink tofu nao. When he came back, he saw Pang Xie arguing with the yamen servants at the gate of the yamen. After asking, he found out that her husband was locked in prison by the officials early in the morning. Inside, the reason was killing in the middle of the night and there were witnesses to testify.

Pang Xie naturally didn't believe it, because his husband usually wouldn't even dare to kill a chicken or a duck, so how could he be so bold as to kill someone? However, on the night when the crime happened, he was ordered by his mother to visit his grandmother. I just got home the next morning, so I really can't explain it now.

Master Xiao, who knew the cause and effect, secretly observed Pang Xie's speech and behavior, saw that his advances and retreats did not seem to be lying, and thought that he hadn't troubled someone for a long time recently, and this time he was doing a good deed again. , so the brain worked quickly...

On the head of the willows in the moon, a certain academician poured tea for a certain prince himself with a flattering expression, and saluted with both hands: "The prince solves the case like a god, I admire, admire!"

The little emperor who had just finished approving the memorial in the palace raised his head to the moon and muttered: "After dusk, after dusk."
