Quick Wear: The Beautiful Tool Man Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder

After Yun Miao moved to this remote courtyard in the southeast corner, her life gradually became stable. As time went by, the originally shabby courtyard began to change gradually. Although it looked the same from the outside, there were earth-shaking changes inside.

There is a lush peach tree on the left side of the entrance, and there are colorful flowers planted next to the peach tree, full of vitality. There is also a swing under the peach tree, and there is a snow-white cat sleeping on it. The whole courtyard is full of vitality.

The peach tree was originally in the courtyard, but before Yun Miao moved in, the tree had lost all its leaves and was about to die. But after Yun Miao and his servants moved in, the tree regained its vitality, including the flowers planted in the back of the courtyard, which were also full of vitality.

The sound of knocking on the door interrupted the tranquility of the courtyard. The sleeping white cat now arched its body and roared towards the source of the sound.

"Who is it?" Meixiang walked quickly from the house to the door and asked vigilantly.

"Sister Meixiang, it's me." A young man's voice sounded outside the door.

Hearing the familiar voice, Meixiang breathed a sigh of relief, opened the door and said, "Xiaowu, it's you! What's going on?"

Xiao Wu was just one of the servants who had initially helped Yun Miao move things. When he was about to answer, he heard a burst of brisk footsteps approaching from afar.

Xiao Wu quickly raised his head and looked past Mei Xiang, looking into the house from a distance. His originally calm heart began to beat wildly. Finally, the figure he had been thinking about appeared in his sight. As Yun Miao gradually approached, it seemed as if even the air was shrouded in a special fragrance.

"Xiaoxue, where are you? Xiaowu, you're here. Meixiang, have you seen Xiaoxue?" Yun Miao woke up and couldn't find Xiaoxue anywhere, so she ran out of the room to look for her.

Before Meixiang could answer, Xiaoxue jumped into Yunmiao's arms like a ball of white snow, and started to act like a spoiled child. Even her meowing, which was usually smooth, revealed a sense of boredom.

Seeing that Xiaoxue did not run far, Yunmiao hugged it, smiled at Xiaowu at the door, then turned around and went back into the house.

"Still looking! The young lady has gone back to the room. What are you doing here?" Meixiang couldn't help rolling her eyes as she looked at Xiaowu who was still staring at the direction of the house.

"Oh, these are the seeds you asked me to bring before. There are seeds for various vegetables in them." Xiaowu came back to his senses, scratched his head embarrassedly, then took out a paper bag from his arms and handed it to Meixiang.

"Also, the capital has been uneasy recently. It seems that some serious criminal has escaped. You should be careful. I'll be leaving first." Xiao Wu said and left.

Meixiang didn't take Xiaowu's words to heart. She would go out occasionally and come back after a few hours. The young lady basically never left the courtyard, so even if something happened, it had nothing to do with them.

At night, Yun Miao, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up. Just as she was about to continue sleeping, she suddenly found that Xiaoxue, who had been lying beside her bed before she fell asleep, was nowhere to be seen again.

Yun Miao got up, put on his clothes, opened the door and went outside to look for Xiaoxue.

The creaking sound of the door opening was particularly obvious in the silent night. After searching for a while, she could not find Xiaoxue. Suddenly, a slight sound attracted Yun Miao's attention. She thought it was Xiaoxue, so she walked towards the place where the sound came from. Suddenly, a pair of big hands covered Yun Miao's mouth from behind, and then something cold was pressed against her neck.

"Don't move. I have no ill intentions. I just want to hide here for a while. I will let you go. Don't make any noise. I will leave soon and will not hurt you." A deep voice appeared in Yun Miao's ear.

Fortunately, Meixiang did not come out with him. This was the thought that flashed through Yun Miao's mind the moment he was controlled. After hearing the man's words, Yun Miao nodded. He was now under his control. There was no need for the man behind him to lie to him. Besides, Yun Miao could feel that he had no intention of hurting him.

Yun Miao nodded, indicating that she would not scream.

Seeing Yun Miao nod, he tentatively took his hand away from Yun Miao's face, but the knife was still across her neck to prevent her from making any other moves. At the same time, he listened carefully to the movements outside. He was careless today. He didn't expect that the seemingly loyal Shangshu would collude with the vassal king in private, and there were so many secret guards in the mansion. He was careful, but he still alerted the enemy.

Fortunately, they were under the emperor's feet, so they didn't dare to be too ostentatious, so as not to arouse the emperor's vigilance, which allowed me to find the right opportunity to escape. Fortunately, after being discovered, I deliberately left a hint that I was from the Prime Minister's Mansion. Haoran and the others were suspicious of each other, so it was best to fight each other to buy more time for the emperor.

After a long while, after confirming that there was really no movement outside, the man took back the dagger placed on Yun Miao's neck and said softly: "Thank you, miss, I'll take my leave." As soon as he finished speaking, before Yun Miao could react, the man disappeared.

Yun Miao turned around and looked around, confirming that the person had really disappeared. At this time, he felt a soft touch beside his leg. It turned out to be Xiaoxue who had run back at some point.

"Where have you been? Do you know how worried I was? Don't run around next time." Yun Miao picked up Xiaoxue and lectured her in a soft voice.

"Second Miss, why are you outside? Is something wrong?" Meixiang's voice came.

It turned out that Meixiang, who had gotten up at night, saw that Yunmiao's room door was open and became worried, so she came out to look for Yunmiao.

"It's okay, it's Xiaoxue that ran out. I'm looking for it! It's okay, let's go in quickly!" Afraid that Meixiang would worry, Yun Miao did not tell her what had just happened.

Standing on the tree, Gu Yanting watched the girl, who looked like an elf under the moon, return to the room with the maid until the girl could no longer be seen.

"The second young lady of Nanchang Marquis's Mansion." Gu Yanting murmured softly, and then gently twisted the fingers that had just touched the girl, and the fingertips seemed to still have the fragrance of the girl. After a long time, he turned around and left, disappearing into the endless darkness.

The next day, after reporting to Emperor Zhou Yuan about some unusual behavior of the officials, Gu Yanting returned to the general's mansion.

Gu Yanting, who was sitting on the chair, saw his hand and his mind uncontrollably recalled the actions of the girl he met last night. The alluring fragrance seemed to reappear in his nose. After a long time, he put down his hand and shouted to the empty room, "An San."

"Master." A baby-faced girl in black tights suddenly appeared in the room.

"Go and help me find out about the second young lady of Nanchang Marquis's Mansion. Remember not to alert the enemy."

"The second lady of the Marquis' Mansion? I understand." An San replied and prepared to leave.

"Wait, when you are gathering information, if she is in danger, remember to help her, but don't expose yourself and don't scare her." Seeing An San about to turn around and leave, Gu Yanting coughed lightly and said.

The discomfort in his words made An San even more curious. Could it be that the master finally fell in love and wanted to find a mistress? So the master wanted to find out about the future mistress, so he must find out clearly to see if there is anyone who is blind enough to threaten the future mistress.
