I became the apex of my nemesis by acting

Chapter 16

The matter of the new house was arranged that afternoon.

The house is small and located in a remote place. Apart from the hall, there is a main courtyard and a side courtyard with a kitchen and toilet. There is also a clear small lotus pond next to the main courtyard. The pavilion stands next to it, which is suitable for resting and enjoying the shade on weekdays.

Because the price was negotiated in a hurry, the seller slaughtered more than 40 taels of silver when he took over.

When Xiao Muzi took money out of the purse, he complained about Xue Beiwang's prodigal son, and covered his chest with his hands, as if he had been severely cut...

Xue Beiwang spent three days recuperating with Bai Chengjue in the inn, and he was extremely patient.

Usually, he was afraid that Bai Chengjue would not be able to sleep because of the kidnapping, so he almost stayed by Bai Chengjue's bedside.

For this reason, he specially pretended to be awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night, so that Xue Beiwang's vigil was worth the money.

Throwing his emaciated body into Xue Beiwang's arms, he was still in shock and shivering.

All the characters in the troupe have to give a thumbs up and call out the show for its good acting skills!

On the fourth day, seeing that he was able to get out of bed, Xue Beiwang called a carriage to take him to the new house in the afternoon.

The carriage that picked him up was specially padded with several layers of soft cushions, and there was a copper hand stove in his arms, and the rabbit fur wrapped outside was soft and comfortable to hold in his arms.

He said: "Do you want to go back to the son's hometown?"

Xue Beiwang took out a cloth strip from his arms and handed it to him: "You cover it up, and I'll take you to a place."

Looking at the silk and satin in front of him, he was slightly stunned, but finally nodded in response, took the white cloth strip that Xue Beiwang handed over to cover his eyes, and said sideways: "Young master, help me tie it up."

"it is good."

Xue Beiwang took the two ends of the cloth strip, touched Bai Chengjue's black hair with his fingers, and tied the slipknot gently, his hand touched back restlessly, and the cool fingertips supported the back of Xue Beiwang's hand.

Xue Beiwang's hand holding the slipknot froze, and said, "Did it hurt you?"

"No, I can't see anything in front of me, so I want to touch you." Bai Chengjue slowly withdrew his hand, "Can't you tell me where to go?"

Xue Beiwang didn't speak, but withdrew his hand: "I want to surprise you."

After Bai Chengjue responded, he could only feel the carriage moving, and it was impossible to confirm where it was heading in the dark environment.

Thinking in his mind whether he had revealed his flaws these days made Xue Beiwang suspicious.

At the end of the day, his acting skills became even harder. Accompanied by the sound of the carriage driving forward, Bai Chengjue feigned uneasiness and searched forward until he took Xue Beiwang's hand into his palm and called out to you young master in a low voice.

"I'm here."

Bai Chengjue said timidly, "Are you going to sell me?"

"How is that possible! I want to take you to a new house..." Before he finished speaking, Xue Beiwang was taken aback, and pursed his lips.

The eyes blinded by the silk belt could not observe Xue Beiwang's expression at this time, Bai Chengjue could only hold Xue Beiwang's hands tightly to pretend to be uneasy.

His hands were trembling uncontrollably, his thin lips were tightly pursed into a line, his expression and body reaction could reveal Bai Chengjue's panic.

Xue Beiwang pulled out his hands, and Bai Chengjue fumbled forward in a panic, muttering, "My lord, I only felt that there was movement behind the hair, and Xue Beiwang pulled the slipknot at the back.

Regaining the light, those beautiful eyes were red with tears rolling in their sockets.

After being held by Xue Beiwang, two lines of tears flowed down his face. His face, which was already pale because of his unhealed injuries, looked even more pitiful under such a scene.

Xue Beiwang wiped away Bai Chengjue's tears in a panic and said, "I'm sorry... how could I want to sell you, stop crying..."

Bai Chengjue lowered his eyes, and replied softly, "En."

Thinking that Xue Beiwang's current situation does not seem like his identity has been exposed, he was relieved.

Xue Bei looked at Bai Chengjue's face eagerly, and blamed himself: "I wanted to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect it to be like this..."

"I'm sorry, because of my fault, I ruined the son's first plan." Bai Chengjue approached Xue Beiwang, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, and he picked up the white silk that was put aside, "Do you want to go to the new house?"

"Well, Xinzhai, where will be your home in the future."

"I haven't seen the new house yet, you blindfolded me and took me in..."

Xue Beiwang said anxiously, "Are you still afraid?"

"I'm not afraid now."

"Well."

Xue Beiwang carefully covered Bai Chengjue's eyes with silk again.

The carriage stopped outside the gate of the new house. He carefully helped Bai Chengjue out of the carriage. He saw that Bai Chengjue was blindfolded with a white cloth, bent down, and walked forward step by step to find his way. After walking out of the curtain, he pulled Bai Chengjue in. in the arms.

Originally, she seemed to have no body, but now she feels light and light in her arms.

Bai Chengjue wrapped his arms around his neck.

He carried Bai Chengjue to the small pavilion and sat down, and untied the white cloth covering his eyes for him.

When Bai Chengjue opened his eyes, he saw a not so clear lotus pond.

Compared with Prince Min's Mansion, this place is a small place that is not on the table, but the noise of people is getting quieter and quieter as the carriage walks along the way, but you can feel the surroundings are clean.

Xue Beiwang asked, "Do you like it?"

"kindness."

"This will be your residence in the future. I will go on a long trip tomorrow, and Xiao Muzi will take care of you in the residence."

Bai Chengjue couldn't help frowning slightly.

Not sure if Xue Beiwang is going to assassinate Prince Min again.

Bai Chengjue tentatively asked, "Young Master, is he going to do something dangerous again?"

"No, just a long trip."

"Can't Jueyu be with the young master?"

Xue Beiwang sighed softly: "Some things are inconvenient after all, but you just need to live here well, and when the matter is over, I will come to accompany you as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Bai Chengjue responded.

If you understand and ask more carefully, even if Xue Bei can't look suspicious, he will gradually feel irritated.

But I still feel that Xue Beiwang's departure this time is inextricably linked with Prince Min's Mansion.

What needs to be considered now is how to send Xiao Muzi away after Xue Beiwang leaves. If he stays in the courtyard and stares at him all the time, he will definitely be at a loss.

At night, Xue Beiwang specially asked Xiao Muzi to go to the restaurant to bring dinner, and when the big fish and meat were served, Xiao Muzi weighed the purse in his hand, sighing again, "The color makes the mind faint." '

Xue Beiwang ignored him at all, and accompanied Bai Chengjue to dinner, and then sent Bai Chengjue back to the main courtyard to rest.

Before dawn, he left the new house.

After Bai Chengjue waited for Xue Beiwang to leave half a cup of tea, he got up and walked outside the house. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Xiao Muzi buttoning his clothes while walking into the courtyard.

Xiao Muzi said: "Master Jueyu woke up so early?"

"Where is Mr. Xue?"

Xiao Muzi spoke poorly: "It's impossible for our master to always be by Young Master's side, so we are satisfied with this house, right? The master only takes you in because he sees you as pitiful. Don't think that you can get more benefits just because of this."

Bai Chengjue leaned against the door lazily, looking at Xiao Muzi with a half-smile.

Xiao Muzi only felt a chill on his back, and twisted his body unhappily: "I warn you not to look at me like this! Our master doesn't have much money anymore."

Bai Chengjue said, "I have."

"I eat my son every day, live with my son, what do you have?"

Bai Chengjue smiled slightly, walked into the house and took out the small wooden box wrapped in the luggage, and opened the wooden box in front of the small wooden box. The pearls were big and round, and they were fully spread on the upper floor, and the golden color could be vaguely seen from the gap.

A palm-height small box, no matter how bad it is, can hold a lot of things.

Xiao Muzi swallowed, and was too embarrassed to say that the other party was trying to make money, but he thought about it carefully, why was he not taken away by the bandits who kidnapped him with such a box of treasures.

Bai Chengjue closed the box and said, "My luggage was snatched back at the time, and everything should be returned to its original owner."

Xiao Muzi's face changed, he lowered his head and frowned.

"I have been pretending to be a woman for so many years in the Hualou, so I must be good at observing people's words and feelings. Don't you think that just because of this face, I can be in the high position of Huakui?"

"Why are you approaching our grandfather?"

Holding the box in his arms, Bai Chengjue said softly, "Even if I leave with all this money, how long can I live? I just want to seek protection and stability."

"Is it not good in the flower building?"

"Aunt Lan wants me to pick up the guests. If I do pick up the guests, my identity as a man will be exposed. Is there still life?"

Xiao Muzi said: "You have been in the flower building for so many years, how could you hide the identity of your man? Mr. Jueyu lies one after another, you come here as soon as you open your mouth, this loophole is very big."

"I was picked up by the luthier. When I was two years old, I went back to the Baihua Pavilion with the luthier. In order to survive, I had to pretend to be a girl. The luthier protected me for 17 years and passed away due to illness. Aunt Lan wanted me to be listed as a pick-up for self-protection. I shied away for more than two years, and now there is no way to avoid it, so I have to redeem myself and leave." Bai Chengjue sighed long, the smile on his face gradually faded, "Actually, I don't know where I will be in the future, I wanted to live day by day..."

Seeing that Xiao Muzi no longer raised any questions, Bai Chengjue said again: "If you are worried, I can pack up and leave now. When Mr. Xue asks, you can say that I think Mr. Xue has not much left, so I will go to another place."

After finishing speaking, Bai Chengjue walked up to Xiao Muzi and handed the box containing the gold and silver treasures to Xiao Muzi.

"I know, Mr. Xue doesn't have much money left because of me these days, so you keep the silver in this box!"

"No." Xiao Muzi took two steps back, "You take good care of your wounds, compared to these, our master definitely hopes to see you well when you come back."

Bai Chengjue frowned slightly, stroking the front of the wooden box with his fingertips and said: "I will be a drag after all by Mr. Xue's side."

"Our grandfather didn't think so."

"No, because Mr. Xue has already spent a lot of money. I will give him the money. With his character and temper, he will never spend a penny."

Xiao Muzi took out the purse and weighed it twice before Bai Chengjue's eyes: "It's too much, it's more than enough to support you, and our master has no hobbies, so he likes to raise you." After finishing speaking, Xiao Muzi went into the room and took a cloak and put it on Bai Chengjue's shoulder, "It's windy outside, go in and have a good rest, I'll prepare breakfast for you later."

Bai Chengjue nodded and said softly that he was bothered, hugged the wooden box, turned and walked into the house.

The soft and weak expression on his face disappeared the moment he turned his back, and his eyes became colder.

After stabilizing Xue Beiwang's guards, the most troublesome question right now is 'Where did he go? '
