Chapter 210 She was the woman back then
He had a deep memory of the free and beautiful woman dancing gracefully under the pear tree. It was a rare bright memory in his dark life.
Shen Ruzhou didn't notice the changes in Beixiu Banquet. He yawned widely and frowned: "I'm so sleepy."
"Well, let's have a rest." Bei Xiuyan picked up Shen Ruzhou and put him on the bed.
Shen Ruzhou lay on the bed obediently and began to take off his clothes.
Bei Xiuyan immediately held her hand down and said, "Just sleep like this."
Shen Ruzhou's eyes were serious and confused, "Why? You have to take off your clothes to sleep."
He lowered his eyelashes, straightened Shen Ruzhou's clothes, and explained patiently.
"You can't take it off unless you're in your room."
Shen Ruzhou didn't know if he heard it or not. He stared at Bei Xiuyan for a long time without saying anything. Then he suddenly grinned, reached out and touched Bei Xiuyan's face, and pulled his collar and talked nonsense.
"Young Master, don't be shy, serve me well, I will reward you heavily!"
After saying that, Shen Ruzhou put his hand into Bei Xiuyan's collar, pressed Bei Xiuyan's collarbone, and rubbed it gently.
The fingertips were on fire as they rubbed against Bei Xiuyan's skin, which was full of teasing meaning.
He was allergic to women, but he didn't know why. Only Shen Ruzhou and the woman he met in the cave would not make him allergic.
Bei Xiuyan's dark eyes looked at Shen Ruzhou quietly, "Have you really never been to that cave?"
"What kind of cave? I never go to such a dark place."
His thin lips pursed and he remained silent.
Shen Ruzhou muttered and poked Bei Xiuyan's chest with his fingertips, "Hurry up and laugh. After you finish laughing, I'm going to bed. Otherwise, you can sleep with me..."
Bei Xiuyan covered her lips with his big hand, "You really need to change your drunken nonsense."
Shen Ruzhou looked at him with confused eyes and shut up obediently.
Suddenly, Bei Xiuyan's palm was licked by something soft. When he realized what it was, his Adam's apple rolled. When he looked at Shen Ruzhou, he met a pair of smiling eyes.
He took a deep breath, pulled the quilt over, covered Shen Ruzhou's body, moved his palms to cover his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Go to sleep."
Shen Ruzhou's eyes were filled with darkness, but he actually became quiet.
After a while, Bei Xiuyan heard even breathing.
He let go of his hand, sat on the edge of the bed and unconsciously looked at Shen Ruzhou's sleeping face. The cold face seemed to be dyed with warm sunshine, making it a little softer, but he didn't realize it.
At this time, Qin Ming's voice came from outside the camp.
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report, concerning the woman you are looking for."
Bei Xiuyan looked slightly condensed, stood up and walked out.
As soon as the tent was opened, a little head popped over.
Bei Xiuyan's sharp-jointed hand touched Lu Huaining's forehead, pushed him away, and closed the tent curtain.
Qin Ming couldn't help but took the opportunity to look inside and felt relieved when he saw Shen Ruzhou neatly dressed on the bed.
He coughed in embarrassment, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I found a villager in Lishan Mountain. He has some knowledge of the situation back then, and he has been brought here now."
Bei Xiuyan's eyes moved slightly, he nodded and said, "Let's go."
Qin Ming immediately led the way.
Lu Huaining just saw that Shen Ruzhou seemed to be sleeping peacefully, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He didn't give up and wanted to hold up the tent curtain to take a closer look, but Bei Xiuyan dragged him away by his collar.
The three of them arrived at a tent, where a middle-aged man with a simple face and dressed as a farmer was already waiting inside.
When the villager saw that the Beixiu banquet was coming, he knelt down and said, "The common people are here to see the regent."
"Get up." Bei Xiuyan said calmly and sat down on the chair in front of him.
Qin Ming and Lu Huaining stood on either side behind Bei Xiuyan.
Qin Ming said to the villager: "Tell the prince everything you know."
"Yes." The villager responded with great respect and told him everything he knew.
"At the beginning of spring last year, a group of people came to the foot of our Lishan Mountain looking for someone. They seemed to be looking for a girl. Many people came, looking all over the mountains and fields. The battle was particularly big."
"However, I don't know which family it is from. After all, it is related to a woman's reputation. The information is kept tightly hidden. The common people only know that the person looking for someone is from the capital."
There was no expression on Bei Xiuyan's handsome face, but his voice was filled with uncontrollable urgency.
"Found someone?"
"Found it." The villager nodded, "But the grassroots have never seen the girl. They just heard from people that when they found her, the girl was covered with injuries, bruises and bruises."
Lu Huaining didn't understand, so he touched his chin and asked doubtfully.
"Master is looking for a woman who has physical contact with Master but will not make Master allergic. Why are there so many scars on that woman's body? She is still bruised and bruised. Master, did you hit her?"
It's wrong to think about it. The master also gave her a token. If she was beaten, she should come to the master. Why did she hide from the master and let the master look for a needle in a haystack for a whole year.
Qin Ming understood immediately, coughed heavily, and said to Lu Huaining: "Master, how could you hit someone? Maybe he fell."
Lu Huaining said, "I understand."
Bei Xiuyan lowered his long eyes with dark eyes. He glanced at the villagers and said coldly: "If you find out any other information, please come and tell me. I will reward you greatly."
The villagers responded with trepidation.
Bei Xiuyan raised his hand indifferently and made a gesture.
Qin Ming understood and led the villagers out, taking the ignorant Lu Huaining with him.
After a while, Qin Ming came back and saw Bei Xiuyan sitting silently, his handsome face was indifferent, and there was no trace of the turmoil in his heart.
He walked to Bei Xiuyan and said: "Your Majesty, according to the villager's description, since so many people went to Lishan to look for her, it means that the woman's family is probably a prominent family in Beijing."
Bei Xiuyan put his slender fingers on the armrests of the chair, tapping them one after another. After a moment of silence, he said steadily: "Go and check all the officials and women in the capital who have been to Lishan Mountain that day."
Qin Ming hesitated and said, "But Your Majesty, there must have been a lot of people going out for an outing at that time, and the area was too big."
Bei Xiuyan narrowed his eyes and said leisurely: "She has my jade finger in her hand."
Qin Ming looked embarrassed and muttered in his heart: That's not easy to find either.
Bei Xiuyan stood up, his whole body filled with undeniable coldness and determination.
"No matter how difficult it is, I will definitely find her."
He wanted to know why she didn't come to find him...
Upon seeing this, Qin Ming responded respectfully, "Yes, Master!"
The master is still thinking about the woman from last year, so he really needs to find her back as soon as possible. Only in this way can the master's thoughts about Princess Wu Cheng be cut off, so as not to sink deeper and ruin the plan...
