"Who is it?"
The commotion at the door woke the shopkeeper up.
"It's me!"
Cao Zheng took out a lighter and lit the lamp.
Seeing Cao Zheng, the shopkeeper heaved a sigh of relief.
The Cloud Piercing Arrow at night was too dazzling.
He also knew that something big had happened, and it was time to be afraid.
He was puzzled when he saw the beautiful woman beside Cao Zheng.
However, regarding Cao Zheng's matter.
If the other party said so, he would listen.
If the other party didn't say anything, he wouldn't ask.
"This is my wife!"
Cao Zheng's voice was very calm, but he emphasized the word "Madam".
The shopkeeper had followed Cao Zheng for a long time and knew what he meant.
"Greetings, Old Master and Madam."
The shopkeeper bowed formally and said,""In the future, no matter who asks, she's Madam!”
Cao Zheng nodded and brought Ning Xueqing upstairs.
Ning Xueqing's face turned red when she was suddenly called Madam.
After returning to his room, Cao Zheng considerately changed the blanket on the bed.
Then he nodded at Ning Xueqing." Madam, go and rest!"”
No one knew if there were spies around them.
Ning Xueqing was very clear about this.
Moreover, this was something that the two of them had discussed in the carriage.
"Then... Then... Husband... Where's Jun?"
Ning Xueqing was not as thick-skinned as Cao Zheng, and it was very difficult for her to call him husband.
"Since we're husband and wife, how can we sleep in separate rooms? What if they suddenly come to investigate?”
"Madam, you sleep on the bed. I'll just lie on the table for the night. I'll go back to the yamen tomorrow to catch up on sleep.”
As Cao Zheng spoke, he moved the chair to the table.
Then, she sat down, covered herself with the blanket, and lay on the table.
"This…"
Ning Xueqing was touched.
"Isn't this a little inappropriate?"
"You're doing this to save me. How can I let you sleep on the table?”
"Why don't you sleep on the bed and I'll sleep on the table?”
Hearing Ning Xueqing's nagging, Cao Zheng said impatiently,"
"Alright, alright. Go to sleep."
"I'm a man, how can I let a woman sleep on the table!”
"Oh!"
When she heard Cao Zheng's impatience, Ning Xueqing replied in a low voice and obediently crawled into bed.
After a while.
Cao Zheng's breathing became even. He had already fallen asleep.
But Ning Xueqing was tossing and turning in bed, unable to fall asleep.
A man and a woman were alone in a room.
Even though it was a table for one and a bed for one, she was still a little nervous and shy.
Lying on her side, she looked at Cao Zheng's face and thought of his style of doing things."This is really a good person! Ergou was really lucky to have met Lord Cao.”
Suddenly, Cao Zheng's shoulder moved, and the blanket slipped and fell to the ground.
"The weather is cold now. It's easy to catch a cold without a blanket.”
Although martial artists were physically strong, they were not immune to all illnesses. There were many martial artists who died of illness.
Ning Xueqing got off the bed, picked up the blanket, and covered Cao Zheng with it.
He lay back on the bed, still not sleepy.
However, after a while, Cao Zheng's blanket fell off again.
Cover, fall…
Cover, fall off
A few times in a row, this made Ning Xueqing frown slightly.
"This can't go on!"
At this moment, her eyelids were also fighting. If they fell again, no one would cover them for him.
He thought about it.
Ning Xueqing came to Cao Zheng's side, picked him up, and placed him on the bed.
Although her cultivation was not at the Upper Sky Realm, she was at the First Rate Realm, so it was not difficult for her to carry Cao Zheng.
Her movements were very light and gentle, afraid of waking Cao Zheng up.
Immediately after.
She crawled into the bed, leaving a space of one person's width between them. She slowly lay down and pulled the blanket over herself and Cao Zheng.
After a while, the lamp oil burned out and the room fell into darkness.
Ning Xueqing could not hold on any longer and fell into a deep sleep.
......
When Cao Zheng was asleep.
The girls of the Education Department were still sweating.
Perhaps it was because of the Piercing Arrow that everyone was panicking and needed to vent, but business was good tonight.
The Eight Great Flower Pavilions.
There were a few more guests on each floor, including the ladies and guest rooms.
However, no one noticed that these guests, intentionally or unintentionally, kept glancing around.
......
In a desolate courtyard.
In a dark secret chamber.
A few men in black stood at the side, watching the two people playing chess not far away.
These two people were the young man in embroidered clothes and Wang Fu.
The young man in embroidered clothes placed a piece down and said indifferently,""Lord Wang, I've done what I promised you. What about you?”
Wang Fu picked up a piece and slammed it on the chessboard as he smiled and said,"We said we were going to take me out of the city, but it's not enough to get me out of prison.”
The young man frowned and was about to say something when Wang Fu said,"
"But... I can give you some information about the officials first.”
The young man in embroidered clothes pondered for a moment.
He was a spy from another country and had been caught stealing an extremely important piece of information. After that, he had met Wang Fu in prison.
What he had stolen was the military deployment information of the Great Jing Kingdom.
Wang Fu had been in the Inspectorate for a long time and had information on countless officials in the Great Jing Kingdom.
Among them were civil officials and military officers.
The combination of these two pieces of information would definitely unleash unimaginable power.
It was a pity that even if he agreed to let Wang Fu come out, the other party would only be willing to give him half of the information.
Half was not enough. He wanted more.
However, if the criminal law of the Inspection Division could be persisted, force would not be able to solve it.
In that case, he could only use emotion and reason to persuade her.
"Sure!" He nodded with a smile.”
Then, he turned to look at the man in black beside him."Bring me paper, brush, and ink!"
"Yes, sir!"
......
Bright sunlight shone into the room through the door and windows.
Cao Zheng opened his eyes and found himself trapped by an octopus.
Retracting his left hand's fingers, Cao Zheng understood something.
How can one hand lift the sky?
The doorbell rang, and Ning Xueqing opened her eyes.
When she realized that she was in the arms of a stranger, her eyes widened in horror.
When he took a closer look and realized that it was Cao Zheng, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
When she felt her position, a beautiful red flush immediately covered her face.
She retracted her limbs and retreated at an extremely fast speed.
In the end, he realized that the other party was sleeping obediently in his seat.
that is
I leaned over myself last night?
Thinking of this, Ning Xueqing was so shocked that her small mouth opened into a circle.
Her beautiful eyes blinked in a daze. She was playful and cute.
"Good morning, Madam!" Cao Zheng smiled when he saw this.”
"Ah ~~~"
Ning Xueqing was stunned. After she reacted, she said shyly,"
"Morning... Morning... Good morning, husband!"
Cao Zheng knew that she was not calm, so he stopped teasing her. He said seriously,
"Stay here for the next few days."
"I will ask the shopkeeper to prepare the food for you.”
"If you need anything, you can tell the shopkeeper.”
"I still have things to do at the yamen, so I won't be staying here for long!”
Ning Xueqing knew that Cao Zheng could not be here forever.
So he nodded and said,"Husband, you can go and do your work!" The yamen is important."
Cao Zheng went downstairs to inform the shopkeeper before returning to the Education Bureau.
