intrigue

Chapter 5

When Xu Ziyi woke up, it was already high in the sun, and he felt sharp and full of energy. When he stood up, he saw that the surrounding furniture was unfamiliar, but the bedding under him was soft and clean. Looking at the corner, there were piles of dry firewood, large and small, on top of his head. There is also a web-spinning spider hanging... After a moment of recovery, I have already guessed that this is the woodshed of the Xin Mansion.

Xu Ziyi suddenly became angry, thinking that Xin Yi Zhuan is really petty, so big that Xin's mansion doesn't even have a guest room?No matter how bad it is, the place where servants live can always be crowded, right?Didn't you just eat two mouthfuls of your food and drink a few mouthfuls of your wine last night, yet you sent me to the firewood room to spend the night while I was drunk.

When Xu Ziyi was angry, he heard a sound coming from outside the door, and could vaguely hear the voices of two people talking.He blinked, and tiptoed to the door to eavesdrop.

The young voice said, "Uncle Li, how can you lock him up in the woodshed?"

The old voice said: "My lord, please calm down. Last night, my lord was unconscious. Seeing the scene, this old slave thought that the lord was going to harm you, so..." It turned out that it was yesterday, not long after Xu Ziyi passed out drunk, Xin Yizhuan He passed out due to his weakness, and the housekeeper just happened to see this horrifying scene—in this way, Xu Ziyi felt that it was kind of the housekeeper not to throw him into the pond to feed the fish.

The young voice snorted coldly, as if very angry, and then there was a sound of footsteps, Xu Ziyi quickly ran back to the bed and pretended to be asleep.

As expected, soon, the door was pushed open with a creak, and a dazzling light came in. Accompanied by a smell of medicine, Xu Ziyi subconsciously frowned.

Soon, the door was gently closed, light footsteps sounded beside him, and the smell of medicine in his breath became stronger and stronger, but it was not unpleasant.Xu Ziyi's mind was spinning wildly, feeling that his head must have been struck by lightning just now—he didn't do anything wrong, why did he pretend to be asleep?And why did Xin Yizhuan come so close, to admire his beauty?Forget it, you can look at yourself in the mirror, Mr. Xin.

Xu Ziyi made up his mind, in short, if the enemy does not move, I will not move. As long as Xin Yizhuan does not call him, he will continue to stand up. It is too shameful and embarrassing to be found pretending to be sleeping, let alone the other party is a man.

"If you don't wake up, the food will be cold." There was a smile in his tone.

So Xu Ziyi dimly opened his eyes, rubbed them, yawned, and suddenly said in surprise: "Hey, Xin Yi... Young Master, why are you here? Eh? Why am I here? Where is this place?"

Xin Yizhuan said: "This is the woodshed of the Xin family. The housekeeper had a little misunderstanding last night. Don't take it to heart." Xu Ziyi suddenly realized: "So that's it, it's okay, just solve the misunderstanding."

At this time, the voice of the housekeeper on the road sounded outside the door again: "My lord, there is a vacant room in your yard that has been idle for a long time, do you need to sort it out?"

Xin Yizhuan said, "That's trouble for Uncle Li."

Xu Ziyi only felt that Xin Yizhuan was weird - he couldn't tell what was wrong for a while.She thought in her heart that she should stay in the Xin Mansion for the time being, and wait for that boy Su Shang to come back to settle the score with him, and settle the debt of love quickly by the way.

He already had calculations in his mind: as early as three years ago, Su Shang's younger sister Su Susu seemed to have a secret love for him, and even wrote him a sour tooth poem about not marrying a king.

Now that I think about it, it must be her.

What a willful silly girl, don't you know that people cannot be resurrected after death?Xu Ziyi thought helplessly.

For an otaku with delicate skin and tender flesh like Xin Yizhuan, Xu Ziyi thought it was easy to deal with.A few words of flickering will definitely be able to deceive you, and then you can just pat your ass and leave.Although little is known about this person in the past eight years, according to the family rules of the Xin family, Xin Yizhuan's temperament is just like that.

The family style of the Xin family is rigorous, and with Xin Yizhuan's appearance, I'm afraid he is still a child who doesn't eat meat.Thinking of this, Xu Ziyi, who was working as a master ink researcher for Mr. Xin, suddenly laughed.

Oh, I forgot to mention that Xu Ziyi's current identity is Xin Yizhuan's personal attendant, because the only bit of conscience left in his heart thinks it's unreasonable to eat and drink for free in the Xin Mansion these days, but he can't do it if he is really asked to chop firewood and sweep the floor , So Mao Sui recommended himself and took the initiative to ask for a job.The kind-hearted and easy-to-deceive Mr. Xin thought about it for a moment, and then he fell into the trap with a few words, and reluctantly agreed.

Hearing the laughter, Xin Yizhuan suddenly stopped his brush and asked curiously, "What is so funny?"

Xu Ziyi couldn't keep his mouth shut. Seeing Xin Xiaobai's eagerness for knowledge, he immediately felt a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. He hooked his hands at Xin Yizhuan and said, "My lord, do you know about Shenyanlou?"
