The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

After leaving the ear room, Xue He went back to his room, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and then went to the young master's room in the dim night.

Xue He jumped in from the side window and approached with familiarity.

I had intended to just take a look and leave, but unexpectedly it was so late and the young master hadn't gone to bed yet.

Hearing the noise, he took a look through the gap in the bed curtains. After recognizing the person, the silly young master pounced on the farmhand.

"Master!"

He was a little surprised, but he acted before he thought and caught the young master and lifted him up.

The silly young master hooked his arm around the farmhand's neck, leaned in close and looked into his eyes for a long while before he said:

"Just came back without me"

There was obvious unhappiness in his words, and he complained that the farmhand came back too late.

He guessed with his not-so-bright mind that the farmhand must have gone to some fun place and came back late because he forgot everything else, and what's more, he didn't even take him with him!

Xue He dragged the man towards his body with his arms, hugged him, and laughed in a low voice, "Master, that's not a good place to go."

"Hmph" The silly young master didn't understand what was good or bad. He just felt that he was too bored recently and the farmhands didn't even want to play with him.

It was obvious that she had something more fun and didn't want to take him along.

"Master, don't be upset. Will you take me to the mountain to play tomorrow?" Xue He held the person, sat on the edge of the bed, put the person on his lap, and rubbed the profile of the master's face with his nose.

The house under repair is almost finished. This is not his job and there won't be many places where he can be used later. When he has free time, he can have some fun with the young master.

If he wanted to tell everything and at the same time take into account the young master's reputation, he naturally couldn't do it when there were many people around.

Just wait until these bricklayers finish their work and there are fewer people in the yard. Even if Mrs. You and Mr. You want to punish him, they can do it behind closed doors and no gossip will spread.

Xue He was not sure what the master and mistress of the You family were thinking. Although he swore solemnly in front of his mother, he still did not have much confidence.

Although it sounds despicable to say this, Mr. You and Mrs. You care about the young master the most. All he can count on is the young master's love and dependence on him.

But Xue He was not sure whether this bit of joy was deliberately guided by himself or the young master's original wish.

Perhaps, after another person appears, the young master will completely forget about him, and happily, just like now, throw himself into the arms of another person.

Could that person be a bad person? Could he just be coveting the young master's family's treasure? Could he have evil intentions like Yue Niang?

Xue He was unwilling to do so. How could he be willing to hand over the young master to someone he didn't know and didn't know any details about?

In fact, he did not tell his mother clearly that his plan was that if the master and the mistress would not agree no matter what, unless he died, he would do everything he could to eliminate the people around the young master.

Having him by the young master's side is enough.

If he cannot get what he wants, then these few days will be the last thing he can think of.

Thoughts were turning around in his mind again and again, and the light touch on the lips pulled Xue He out of his gloomy thoughts.

Reaching out to cover the fingers that were touching the corner of his lips, Xue He looked into the young master's eyes in the dark room, having already prepared for the worst.

The view zoomed in and their noses touched. As if seeing the farmhand's low mood, the young master blinked and took the initiative to kiss him.

He wanted to eat candy during the day, but the farmhand was too busy and refused to eat it.

Now that he was free and in a daze, the silly young master decided to come over on his own initiative.

They were entangled with each other. The farmhand held the young master's waist tightly and kissed him hard, taking the opportunity to vent his mood which was getting worse because of those bad assumptions.

But he knew that he shouldn't go too far, so he restrained himself and suppressed himself, and eventually he kept his distance.

The silly young master licked his lower lip, and said unsatisfactorily in the increasingly dark eyes of the farmhand:

“Not sweet”

These words brought the farmhand back to his senses. After realizing that even the active kiss was deliberately induced by him, he became even more depressed.

He knew it. From the first time he deliberately deceived the young master, he knew that fake is fake and the day would come when it would be exposed.

The stolen fruit will always be discovered one day.

With difficulty stabilizing his voice, Xue He coaxed people as usual, "Sorry, Master, I changed my clothes and forgot to bring candy."

Having said that, he was about to put the young master down and carry him back to bed to sleep.

Unexpectedly, the silly young master did not loosen his arm that was clinging to his neck. Instead, he exerted force and took advantage of the angle of position to raise his head and move closer again.

Xue He's pupils shrank slightly, and his thoughts froze for a moment.

If the first time was for sugar, what about this time?

The light sound of lips and teeth parting was particularly clear in Xue He's ears in the quiet environment. Then, he heard the young master's words with a hint of compromise.

“Not sweet, that’s OK”

The two men fell into the bedding, and the gauze curtains were shaken by the noise.

Xue He propped up his arms, held the young master's face with one hand, lowered his head and moved closer.

His moods were always up and down, but he finally noticed something different and wanted more urgently.

"Master, say you like me, Master, say you like me too..." He pecked the Master's earlobe and urged in a low voice.

The silly young master was very generous. He raised his head and kissed her again, hooking his arm around the farmhand's neck and saying, "I like it, Xue He."

In the dim light, Xue He's heart was shaken. Looking at the young master's clear eyes, he vaguely felt that he was being looked at and was really loved. He also felt that there were suddenly many more things in those pupils, but they all flashed away.

"Master..." The words died on his lips. Xue He was an unsatisfied person. He got one thing but still wanted more...

The young master hugged the farmhand's back and stroked it. He felt that the scabs were particularly difficult to touch. But just when he was about to let go, the farmhand grabbed him and stuck to his back again.

"It hurts..."

During the interval, the silly young master finally had some room to speak.

"It's okay, it's just a superficial wound, it won't hurt, don't worry, young master." Xue He had a good physique and a good recovery ability. The wounds caused by his mother beating him with thorns during the day had already grown scabs, and these scars would fall off in two days.

But the silly young master was not asking this at all, but instead emphasized that the scab had pricked his hand.

Obviously the farmhand understood, but he deliberately misinterpreted the meaning, pulled the young master's arm, and asked the person in his arms to hold him tightly.

……

The sky was turning gray-blue, and just as a new sun was about to rise high in the sky, Mrs. Yao walked out of the prison with her clothes stained with blood.

Just as she was about to return home, people around County Magistrate Yao stopped her.

"Young Madam, my Lord sent me to ask you how the interrogation went." The man in steward's clothes lowered his head and bowed respectfully to Madam Yao, then brought the oral order from Magistrate Yao.

Madam Yao was silent for a moment, then she took out the interrogation record from her sleeve, turned around and said to the man, "It's too early, I can't disturb you in the courtyard, Manager Yang, please take this note and say hello to my uncle for me."

"Yes, I've made note of it." After taking the note, the steward did not stay any longer and left quickly.

Mrs. Yao watched the steward leave with a smile on her face, and then slowly removed her fake smile.

Yao Zhongyuan was a fence-sitter, trying to curry favor with both sides, but ended up getting into trouble. However, the struggle among the bigwigs in Kyoto was already fierce, so how could he have the time to take care of the county magistrate in a remote county? He was so anxious, but it was just because he was guilty!

If it weren't for the information given by that unknown person, she really wouldn't have guessed why Yao Zhongyuan had been staying indoors and secretly running around to smooth relations recently.

The matter of clearing up chaos in the court can be big or small. If the one who comes has given advance notice, you can just throw in a discarded pawn and cut off the tail to survive, and you can still keep your position.

But if he encounters an official from a hostile faction, then Lord Yao, Magistrate Yao, will be in trouble.

She was not clear about the situation in Kyoto, nor did she know whether Yao Zhongyuan had any trump cards, but she couldn't let the other party have an easy time.

At this point, whether Xue Haicheng admits that he is a spy or not, she can make him one.

However, the transcript still needs to look authentic enough to be credible.

She wanted to make Yao Zhongyuan extremely anxious so that she could do something secretly.
