I don't know when this person climbed onto my bed. Xia Tong was no longer sleepy. She could only push the person off her body with all her might. She snorted heavily, "Didn't the Crown Prince give the prince a few beauties? Go find them!"
In the darkness, his eyes were bright, just like a lone wolf in the depths of the forest that had set its sights on its prey and was ready to attack at any time.
"I don't know how someone like you, who doesn't know what's good for you, has survived to this day." He said in a light voice.
It was pitch dark around her, and she could only see the man's face. Upon hearing that, Xia Tong frowned in anger. It was obviously the man who was having a fit, but he actually scolded her for being ungrateful!
"I don't know what's good for me, so isn't that a broken promise, Your Majesty? You just scare people every time, but I didn't see you really throw me into the snake cave. Don't you feel sorry for me?" She raised her eyebrows and said with a whimper.
After he finished speaking, the atmosphere around him seemed to freeze. Xia Tong suddenly felt guilty, as if she had gotten carried away. She actually dared to slap the other person in the face so blatantly. Was he really going to throw her into the snake cave?
Just as he was about to save the situation, his hand on her waist suddenly tightened, and a deep voice suddenly came to his ear, "So this king regrets it."
Xia Tong: “…”
Her whole body froze, and she blinked and stared blankly at the slightly fluttering bed curtains.
The hot kisses fell densely on her neck, and the man said in a hoarse voice, "You must have come here to torture me on purpose."
You can't hit him, and if you say a few harsh words to him, he will be humiliated. How can there be such a person?
"You... you're talking nonsense..." Xia Tong blushed as she struggled uncomfortably, muttering in dissatisfaction, "It's obviously you who's torturing me."
Not only did he threaten her verbally, making her live in dire straits every day, but he also always liked to be mean to her for no reason. Didn't he know how terrible he was when he was angry?
The slippery feeling of the tentacles made the man's heart flutter. He blocked the chattering little mouth with burning eyes, and his big hand slipped into the loose bellyband.
“Hmm…”
Xia Tong felt dizzy, until the hot kiss moved down her collarbone, she blushed and pushed him away weakly, "I...we haven't reconciled yet."
It is absolutely impossible to get into her bed without even saying sorry!
The faint fragrance in the darkness filled his breath. The man grasped the boneless little hand and pulled it up to the top of his head. He bit the smooth skin and said in a hoarse voice, "The king forgives you."
Xia Tong: “…”
Shouldn't I forgive him?
"But I still... um... don't..."
It was pitch black outside and cold, but inside the house it was warm as spring, and from time to time the sound of a woman sobbing for mercy could be heard...
——
As the year draws to a close, the wind and snow become more and more violent everywhere. The snow has fallen to the depth of calves in the early morning. The servants in the mansion have been clearing the thick snow early to avoid inconvenience for the masters to walk. However, at the time of 9 o'clock, there is still no movement in the house.
Only when the quilt was no longer warm did Xia Tong curl up and open her eyes drowsily. She saw that it was already bright outside. She didn't know what time it was, but the person next to her was nowhere to be seen.
Men are like those who don't recognize people once they have pulled up their pants. It's so cold, but he didn't even help her warm the bed. It's too much.
"Is the master awake?"
Fang Yu's voice came from outside the door. Xia Tong rubbed her eyes and responded sleepily. It was not until now that she realized how gentle Gu Qin was last time. Even if the original owner had practiced dancing, she felt like her waist was broken now. The other party must be taking revenge on her!
Pushing the door open, Fang Yu came in with toiletries. She looked at the shadow behind the bed curtain and suddenly said, "Madam came over just now, but she saw that you were still resting so she didn't let me disturb you. She is waiting in the front hall now."
Hearing this, Xia Tong immediately held her waist and sat up from the bed with difficulty. Her mother came to her on her own initiative, so it must be something important.
After asking someone to fetch water for bathing, she got dressed and asked Fangyu to bring her mother over.
There was food on the table in the room, which showed that she had just started her breakfast. However, Liu did not say anything. Instead, she had a smile on her face. She heard that the prince was staying at Tong'er's place last night, so it was normal for him to get up a little late.
"Mom, have you had your meal yet?" Although it was unnecessary, Xia Tong still asked.
After taking off the fox fur and handing it to Qing'er, Liu shook her head and sat opposite her with a smile, looking at her daughter's rosy little face with a satisfied look between her brows. It seemed that the prince was really good to Tong'er.
"I'm here today to deliver a letter on behalf of your father. There are some things that I, as a mother, don't understand, but according to what you said, other people in this mansion have indeed gone too far." Liu frowned and took out a letter from her arms.
After drinking a mouthful of porridge, Xia Tong put down the spoon and took the envelope. In fact, she knew that it would be difficult to make her father break up with the Xia family completely. Even though her mother was captured, blood is thicker than water. Her father, who valued friendship so much, how could he ignore the old lady.
She opened the letter and found two full pages inside. However, when she read the contents, she felt complicated.
"Your father is really disappointed this time and doesn't want to take care of anything in the mansion anymore. Yesterday he talked to your grandmother about dividing the family, but the two argued for a long time. Your grandmother and the others naturally disagreed, but your father was determined to divide the family and is now preparing a new mansion, and they will move there when it's almost ready." Liu sighed.
The letter contained a lot of content, including matters of state, but her father's words were indeed filled with anger towards the old lady and others. After all, this time they actually teamed up with the Grand Tutor's Mansion to capture her mother and threaten him. This was not something a family would do.
Putting away the letter, Xia Tong frowned and said softly, "Grandmother and the others will definitely not allow Dad to split up the family. Even if we split up, how can Dad just sit back and watch if the Xia family is in trouble?"
Now her father is the highest-ranking official in the Xia family. How could the old lady and the others let him go? However, since the other party has gone so far, she can only be ruthless. If she doesn't make a decision, she will suffer the consequences.
"Well, we are a family after all. But your father is very determined this time. He won't be confused again in the future." Liu shook her head with some worry on her face.
While biting a steamed bun, Xia Tong had already made up her mind to bring down the lunatic in that mansion. What family? They were almost like vampires.
Thinking of something, Liu suddenly glanced at her with a serious face, "It's been a while since you and the prince consummated your marriage, how come there is no movement yet? Have you seen a doctor?"
“Ahem—”
Suddenly, her throat was choked. Looking at her mother who had a solemn face, Xia Tong could only drink a mouthful of warm water quickly. However, her ears were red. "This...some things depend on fate. What is meant to come will come. What's the point of being anxious?"
"nonsense!"
Liu glared at her in dissatisfaction and said in a rather reproachful manner, "This new person is better than the old one. No one can predict what will happen in the future. Only children are the most reliable things. When your second aunt first got married, your second uncle treated her very well, but she had no children for half a year. Your second uncle took in several concubines. If she had not given birth to your cousin not long after, she would not have had any status in the mansion!"
Xia Tong pursed her lips while drinking porridge, and said nothing. She knew her mother would say these things to her. She was not interested in house fights or anything like that.
"When I first came into the mansion, I was also childless. It was not until your grandmother gave me a prescription that I gave birth to you. Fortunately, I brought the prescription with me when I came. You must take it on time, okay?"
Looking at the prescription her mother took out from her sleeve, Xia Tong had a look of deep bitterness and resentment. It was obvious that she came prepared and had talked so much to her!
"I... I don't want to drink..." She frowned, her voice weak. All medicines are poisonous. She was fine at first, but something happened while she was taking it.
"No, you must drink it!" Liu suddenly became tough, and suddenly handed the prescription to Qing'er behind her, and instructed: "From now on, you must make medicine for the princess every day, not a day less!"
Children are young and ignorant, and it may be too late to regret it later.
After taking the prescription, Qing'er looked at her master somewhat at a loss. The latter turned her head away and stopped talking. Anyway, she didn't want to drink it.
"Princess, good luck. Princess, good luck—"
Suddenly, a strange sound was heard outside the house. Xia Tong looked over and saw Gu Qin suddenly appeared at the door. Seeing him, Xia Tong hurried over as if she had found a savior. However, when she saw the parrot in Xifeng's hand, she became very curious.
"Princess, good luck. Princess, good luck—"
This was clearly what the West Wind Cult said. Xia Tong picked up the cage with a surprised look on her face and poked the parrot's head with her hand, "So cute."
"This is a rare species. Even if it is released, it will fly back on its own. Princess, you don't have to worry about being bored in the future." Xifeng explained.
At this time, Liu from inside also hurried over and bowed slightly, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Seeing that the woman was still playing with the parrot, Gu Qin's eyes flashed with tenderness, and suddenly he looked at Liu opposite him, "Mother-in-law, you are welcome."
Xia Tong's body froze. It was the first time she heard Gu Qin call her mother like that. Is this... is this really the cruel villain?
Seeing the imposing man in front of her, Liu was a little flattered, but this must be because of Tong'er.
Thinking that her mother would talk about having children again, Xia Tong no longer had the heart to play with the parrot. She quickly handed the cage to Qing'er and said, "Put it away quickly and send mother back home. The prince must have something to ask me. I have to leave first."
After saying that, she pulled the man's arm again and blinked hard. If she didn't leave now, when would she leave?
Just as Liu was about to say something, Gu Qin suddenly touched Xia Tong's head, curled his lips, and walked out.
Xia Tong hurriedly followed, and Fang Yu behind him quickly caught up with a fox fur coat, "Master, wait a minute!"
After finally escaping from her mother's clutches, Xia Tong remembered the poisoning of her mother. The man did not give her a chance to speak last night, so she told him the whole story immediately.
The edge of the corridor was covered with snow, and the rockery of Qijun was covered with silver frost. The cold wind was like a knife blowing on people's faces. Xia Tong hid behind the man and asked him to block the wind for her, but the other party didn't seem to react much when he heard it.
"The old man will take the initiative to send the antidote over." He said in a light voice.
After hearing what the other party said, Xia Tong felt inexplicably relieved. Although the villains were sometimes very cruel, in her eyes, there was nothing he couldn't do.
"But my uncle and his family have gone too far. My father is already preparing to split the family business. But they certainly won't let my father go so easily. What do you think I should do?" She pulled the other person's sleeve and leaned forward with her little head.
There were no servants passing by in the corridor. Snow was falling on both sides and it was silent. The man turned around and glanced at the expectant little face. This woman has now learned to be scheming.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xia Tong took another step forward and took his hot big hand, shaking it gently, "I hope to teach them a lesson, what do you think?"
If it weren't for me, the villain would not have let the Xia family go. I was just going with the flow by doing this.
"What was your mother talking to you about earlier?" He glanced at her, his expression unchanged.
When their eyes met, Xia Tong immediately lowered her head, blushing and hesitating, "It's just... just some family matters."
They spoke in a very low voice, so people outside should not be able to hear them, but... this man has always had very sharp ears, he walks without making any sound, and he likes to eavesdrop on what is happening behind the walls.
Holding the cool little hand, Gu Qin stared at her hair and said softly, "Your mother is right. Only by giving birth to a child can your position be secure."
Xia Tong: “…”
Sure enough, he was eavesdropping again and trying to brainwash her? !
She raised her head, frowned and glared at him with dissatisfaction, her voice full of resentment, "I'm talking to you about the Xia Mansion, why are you telling me this?"
