Nongmen beautiful wife

Chapter 232
"I see, you lie down, I'll take them there first, and I'll get a quilt later, the snow is so heavy today, I don't know when it will stop, it will definitely be cold at night." said the uncle.

"Ahem, bring them an extra quilt, ahem."

The uncle’s surname is Wen, and when Uncle Wen came out of the house, he took a candle lamp, and then took Liu Xiaodong to the room opposite the stable, “This is my son’s room, you can stay here tonight.” Uncle Wen left the candle in the room, "I'll get you quilts."

Liu Xiaodong said, "Thank you."

When Uncle Wen was about to go out, Xiang Qin also led the carriage to the stable and was about to come in. Uncle Wen lifted the curtain hanging in front of the door and saw Xiang Qin, "Go in and warm up, young man. Look at your clothes. It's snow, if you catch the wind and cold, you will suffer."

Xiang Qin nodded slightly to Uncle Wen, "Thank you."

Uncle Wen went to fetch quilts for them. Uncle Wen’s house also burns earth kangs in winter, which is the same as when they were at home. The stove in the kitchen is used to connect the kangs in the house, so although Uncle Wen’s son’s room is empty, But it's still warm inside.

As soon as Xiang Qin entered the room, the snowflakes on his clothes were melted by the temperature in the room, Xiang Qin's body was soaked in a large area, Liu Xiaodong took out a set of clean clothes for Xiang Qin from the bag, "Hurry up!" Change your clothes, I'll ask if there is hot water."

Although Liu Xiaodong was a general in his previous life, he didn't know how to ride a horse, let alone drive a carriage. Therefore, Xiang Qin was driving the car along the way, and he had to be careful not to be discovered by Shangguan He's people. Xiang Qin must have been consumed these days A lot of energy, Liu Xiaodong now wants Xiang Qin to have a good sleep after freshening up with hot water.

Liu Xiaodong went to knock on the door of Uncle Wen's room. Uncle Wen had just taken a quilt to cover Aunt Wen with an extra layer, and was looking for quilts for them. When he heard the knock on the door, he went out. Liu Xiaodong looked at Uncle Wen with some embarrassment. After all, staying here in this kind of weather is already very disturbing. "Master, may I trouble you again, do you have hot water at home? We want to use some hot water."

Uncle Wen said kindly, "I just thought that you must use hot water to drive in the cold weather and in the snow. I have already boiled it for you just now. The kitchen is over there. After it is cooked, you can pour it yourself. It's gone." Uncle Wen also pointed out the location of the kitchen for Liu Xiaodong.

"Thank you, sir." Uncle Wen even thought of this for them, and Liu Xiaodong felt that he was really troublesome, so he was very sincere when he thanked him.

Uncle Wen waved his hand, "It's nothing, by the way, have you eaten yet? If you're hungry, there's still food in the kitchen, and I'll warm it up for you."

"No need, sir, we are already very grateful for your willingness to take us in for the night. How can we keep working hard on you? And we have already had dinner, so thank you very much."

Uncle Wen nodded, "It's nothing, by the way, what are you going to do? Why are you still in such a hurry when it's snowing?"

Liu Xiaodong explained, "We were planning to go back to our hometown to visit our parents. We thought it would not take too long to walk on the road, but we didn't expect that now everywhere is under martial law, so we delayed a lot of time. Today we walked on the road. It's starting to snow, thanks to you for taking us in."

When Uncle Wen heard Liu Xiaodong say that they were going back to their hometown to visit their parents, he lost his mind for a moment. Hey, his son has been away for five years, and he doesn't know when he will come back. "Yes, I heard that the yamen is arresting the court. The prisoner has been under martial law for a while."

Liu Xiaodong's heart ached, for fear that Uncle Wen would recognize her and Xiang Qin's faces, and then report their whereabouts to the government. Liu Xiaodong pretended to have suddenly realized, "It turns out that they are trying to catch the imperial court's infringement. Yan, what kind of prisoner can make the court spend so much trouble?"

"We don't know about this, but it's right that they are not good people. I heard that not only the martial law here, but also many places have been ordered by the princes to investigate to the end."

Liu Xiaodong continued to talk to Uncle Wen, "Is there any clue? It's impossible to arrest people without any clues."

"I heard that there are portraits of the three prisoners in every yamen, two men and one woman, all escaped from the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the capital."

Liu Xiaodong almost started to admire Shangguan He's imagination. It's fine to tell the yamen at all levels that they were invaded by the imperial court. Since they also said that they escaped from the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it's a pity that Shangguan He didn't tell the story, "Then those imperial courts What does aggression look like?"

Uncle Wen shook his head and said, "I really don't know about this. It seems that only the people in the yamen know. I heard that the prisoners' portraits were posted at first. Well, but later the yamen wanted to startle the snake, so they tore up the portrait."

Liu Xiaodong thought to himself, I'm afraid it's not because Shangguan He was afraid of startling the snake, but because he was worried that if the incident became too big, the emperor's impression of him would be greatly reduced if he found out. The position of prince has always been the common goal of several princes, and the emperor is also secretly observing the princes. If the emperor knows about this, he will definitely feel that he is incompetent, and the position of prince will not be destined for him.

But Liu Xiaodong was a little relieved when he heard the news. Shangguan He's order mentioned three people, and now that Situ Jie had left, her and Xiang Qin's goals were not so obvious.

Xiang Qin changed his clothes in the room and didn't see Liu Xiaodong coming back, so he was going to go out to have a look. After talking with Uncle Wen, Liu Xiaodong went into the room to help him get the quilt.

Xiang Qin saw Liu Xiaodong carrying two quilts out, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the quilt from her hand, "Why haven't you gone back for so long?"

"I was chatting with Uncle just now." Liu Xiaodong glanced in the direction of Uncle Wen's room, but Uncle Wen hadn't come out yet, "I'll tell you in detail later."

After Xiang Qin and Liu Xiaodong entered the room, Uncle Wen came over with two more quilts, "It's snowing so heavily, it will definitely be cold at night, I brought you an extra quilt, remember to cover it up."

Liu Xiaodong said, "Thank you, sir." Xiang Qin followed suit.

It was getting late, Uncle Wen put down the quilt and went back to the room. After Uncle Wen left, Liu Xiaodong told Xiang Qin what he had just said to Uncle Wen, "I think we don't have to worry so much about Shangguan He's people coming to arrest us. Yes, the yamen is looking for three people, two men and one woman, but Situ Jie has already left and now there are only two of us, we just need to disguise ourselves when we are outside, and he won't find us."
