Quick Travel: After dressing up as a villain, he is bound to the childbirth system

Chapter 143 The two-faced female craftsman × The powerful regent 2

Maybe he didn't reply for a long time, which made the girl think wrong. The red glow on her face faded, and her face became paler. Her voice trembled slightly but she still maintained her dignity and said: "If Brother Yan has someone else he likes, then let's call it quits on our engagement." …”

The sound is just like the sound of swallows and warblers.

On the back of her folded hands on her legs, there were two veins protruding from under the snowy skin.

Wen Yan took everything in his eyes, with a dark look in his eyes, and stared at her for a long time, until Zhu Baishao felt uncomfortable all over, and her feet under the white skirt came together backwards.

He closed his eyes, and it was only then that he realized that, as the master said, his heart was in the world of mortals, and his ties to this world were not severed, so he could not leave home.

That's all, no matter what the purpose of her coming, he just looked at her...

Where is the safest place to be?

Wen Yan covered his mouth with a handkerchief, coughed twice, and said with a smile, "In that case, how about we get married in a month?"

Zhu Baishao's face was filled with clouds, her brows relaxed, and she hummed softly in response.

There was some inexplicable feeling in her heart, so she asked the system: "Did Wen Yan find out that I am a fake?"

The system was also looking at the young man in white across from him, and after a while he replied: [Host, I can't see it! You humans are so good at acting! ! 】

Ever since Zhu Baishao was bound, the system no longer trusts humans.

……

In the evening, they had a meal together, which was all specially prepared vegetarian food.

Wen Yan looked at Zhu Baishao from time to time and found nothing wrong with her, so he said nothing.

After dinner, he returned to the room. Zhu Baishao sat beside the bed and whispered: "Go out tomorrow and buy me some filial piety clothes..."

Bi Tao nodded and said clearly: "I understand this, I can do the whole show."

Zhu Baishao lowered his eyes and retorted silently in his heart. What's more important is that there is a saying that "men need to be pretty, and they should be covered in soap; women should be pretty, and they should be filial."

Just what I have on my body is not enough.

……

The night is getting darker, in the soup pool deep in the palace.

The hot air is thick, and the handsome young emperor Xiao Jingchuan is leaning on the edge of the soup pool with his eyes closed to relax, and the surroundings are silent.

He has already passed this year, but in the court, he can only act based on the regent's face, and he is no different from the puppet emperor.

It is the age of a high-spirited young man. This feeling of being controlled by others is nothing more than trampling on his dignity over and over again. How can a scholar tolerate it?

He will never be willing to be a puppet on strings!

The veins on Xiao Jingchuan's forehead were pulsing, showing the violence surging in his heart.

If he is really the emperor, God should help him and let him turn the situation around and become a true king!

puff-

Accompanied by a loud sound of falling water, there were several sounds of falling tiles.

A little girl with a ponytail and strange clothes stood up from the water. She had fair cheeks and smooth skin, but her expression was solemn and indifferent. She shook her wet hair and looked around warily.

"you……"

Xiao Jingchuan frowned and looked at the little girl who suddenly appeared, and then looked at the big hole in the roof, feeling shocked and confused.

Is it possible that the thoughts in my heart are known to God? Is this a helper sent to me?

"Don't move!"

Jiang Tang pointed the pistol in his hand at Xiao Jingchuan and said coldly: "I'll kill you if I move!"

Xiao Jingchuan looked at the strange weapon in her hand and was about to speak when the noise of the eunuch and maid came from outside, "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, are you not injured?!"

Xiao Jingchuan glanced at Jiang Tang, quickly pulled the robe aside and put it on, and said to the palace maid and eunuch who was about to barge in here: "I have nothing to do, please step aside."

After watching everyone outside leave, Jiang Tang put away his pistol, frowned and asked, "Are you the emperor? Where are you?"

"I am the emperor, so naturally this is the palace."

"The palace?"

……

The next day, after breakfast, Bitao said she was going out to do some shopping. Wen Yan nodded gently and called a guard to accompany her.

He was sitting with Zhu Baishao in the yard talking, and what he was talking about was the current situation of his hometown.

Fortunately, Zhu Bai Shao was well prepared and responded well, without revealing his flaws for a moment.

On the other side, because there were guards following her, Bitao behaved honestly. She visited several ready-made clothing stores and said the prices were too expensive. She refused the guards' offer to help pay, and then she returned to the first store.

There is a secret code on the front door of this house that only the craftsmen trained by the Prime Minister's Office know.

"Shopkeeper, please help me wrap up the two clothes from before."

Bitao smiled, then took out a purse from her waist and started to take out money.

"Shopkeeper, this copper coin of yours is broken. Can you still use it in the future..." Bi Tao frowned tightly as she took the copper coin that the shopkeeper found.

"Girl, these copper coins can definitely be used."

Then Bitao seemed to remember that the guard was still at the door, so she calmed down and changed her words: "Okay, okay, I'll come find you next time if you don't have to go out!"

After that, he picked up his clothes and walked out.

The shopkeeper shouted from behind: "Girl, you can use it for now, you can come back and change it at any time!"

After leaving the clothing store, Bi Tao muttered, "Below the Imperial City is not as good as my hometown. The copper coins are all in tatters."

The guard looked back at the clothing store, but said nothing.

But in the tailor shop, the shopkeeper asked the waiter to look at the shop while he went to the backyard.

It's done...

Late at night, everything is still and there is no sound.

A ghost-like figure flashed from behind the rockery to the corner of the corridor house, its body pressed against the wall and huddled in the shadow where the lanterns and candles above could not illuminate it.

After a while, four patrolling guards with hand-held lanterns walked over. Except for the flickering candlelight, they made almost no sound.

Zhu Baishao breathed a sigh of relief. If it hadn't been for the system reminder, she would have been discovered.

[Host, it would be too risky for you to sneak in the next day. 】

"It doesn't matter. I won't go directly to Xiao Huanzhi. I'll explore the terrain, find his study, and check on the Zhu family."

After returning to the system in his mind, Zhu Baishao gently avoided the bold red arrow that had not moved in his field of vision.

Presumably Xiao Huanzhi should have fallen asleep by now.

She was not familiar with the terrain of the palace, so under the guidance of the system, she found a study next to the garden.

She used the firebrand in her arms to illuminate and rummaged around on the desk.

I flipped through the memorials one after another, but found no useful clues. I only saw a book recording chess scores at the bottom. In the margins of the inner pages, there were some essays recorded in small regular script.

"Every appearance is false, and losing three sons today is also false."

"It's a good thing to break the game together with Brother Wen. It's a joy."

"The game is over, the sky is about to dawn, the remaining stars are counting, and we are talking all night long."

"..."

Zhu Baishao frowned, Xiao Huanzhi likes to play Go? Is it because it allows him to experience the fun of attacking and defending on the chessboard?

Just like the back-and-forth civil and military struggles with the Manchu Dynasty when he first became regent? When he can really suppress the court without any effort and say the truth, will he get tired of it again?
