Time Travel: Brothel Maid

Chapter 212 Losing his wife and losing his troops

Xiao Guo'er wasn't really hungry, but now that she was carefree and in a good mood, her foodie nature slowly awakened.

I haven’t had a good meal in the past few days, so now that I encounter some unique local food, I naturally want to try it. Besides, my boyfriend has lost a lot of weight, so I have to nourish him!

"You are well-informed and I trust your taste. Just order what you like."

After hearing this, Tang Jingchen's mouth corners slightly raised, and a gentle smile flashed in his eyes. He didn't say anything more, holding the little hand in his palm, and walked into the restaurant.

After the two of them had eaten and drunk their fill, they leisurely returned to the inn.

Originally they wanted to stay in an inn outside. After all, there were too many soldiers and guards to fit in at the official inn.

However, the Eighth Prince has issued an order that in order to avoid the inns outside being unsafe and encountering dangers such as assassins, all counselors who do not know martial arts and are not good in skills must live in the official inn.

So, Xiao Guoer and Tang Jingchen were arranged to stay in the official inn.

However, Xiao Guoer discovered that the two rooms assigned to her and Tang Jingchen were far apart, almost at two extremes, one at the south end and the other at the north end. If they wanted to visit each other, they had to go through a long corridor.

However, several lanterns on the corridor went out one after another.

Xiao Guoer was most afraid of the dark. Seeing that dark road, she felt scared and immediately gave up the idea of ​​going out for a walk to find Tang Jingchen.

He cursed inwardly, "I wonder if the official who manages this posthouse is so bold that the Eighth Prince is staying here. He is so blind that he hangs a few extinguished lanterns. Aren't they afraid that he will lose his position? He is so blind!"

At this time, Mr. Ma, an official of the post station who was busy in the backyard, sneezed several times in succession. He touched his nose and muttered to himself: I don't know why this Eighth Prince always gives strange orders that make people confused.

First, he was inexplicably asked to extinguish several lanterns on the corridor, and then he was asked to sprinkle more water on the road in the corridor, saying that the weather was too hot and sprinkling water could cool down the soldiers and relieve the heat. But if so much water was sprinkled, wouldn't people's shoes get wet when they walked past?

It's really puzzling! Lord Ma shook his head. Although he kept complaining in his heart, he had to do what the Eighth Prince had asked him to do quickly, and he couldn't help but urge his two men to pour water on the corridor.

In this way, for several days in a row, when traveling, Xiao Guoer was called to the Eighth Prince's carriage to read to him. When they arrived at the official inn where they stayed, she would always have to chat with Tang Jingchen at night because of various trivial matters, and the time they spent together was pitifully short.

On this day, Xiao Guoer was really tired of reading like a reading machine!

But if she pretends to be sick, the eagle-eyed Eighth Prince will see through it, and then he will accuse her of breaking her promise and take the opportunity to punish her!

So she thought of a way to make her voice really hoarse.

She first drank half a bowl of ice water and then ate half a bowl of chili peppers. Then she became so hoarse that she could hardly speak and could only make whispers to communicate with others.

Although the process made her feel cold and hot, the result made her overjoyed.

When she stood on the Eighth Prince's carriage, opened her mouth, and tried hard to tell him in a whisper that her throat was damaged and she couldn't study, she felt very proud.

Finally, she doesn't have to hold a book and read all day long, hahahaha, she can finally take a break wakaka.

Zhao Yunrong looked at the joy that could not be concealed between her eyebrows and snorted in his heart. She didn't want to stay in his carriage and read to him, so she wanted to go and hang out with Tang Jingchen?

How could he let her have her wish?

"Since your throat is damaged, go down and have a rest."

Xiao Guoer couldn't help but smile when she heard that, and she was secretly delighted. However, the next second, when she heard the next words of this annoying Eighth Prince, the smile on her face froze instantly, and her face fell again.

"Go and call Tang Jingchen over. Is his voice okay? Let him read to me."

"...Yes, Your Highness." Xiao Guoer opened her mouth silently, then got out of the carriage and went to find Tang Jingchen unhappily.

Woo woo woo, Jingchen, we both have such a hard life.

Zhao Yunrong looked at Xiao Guoer's dejected back and sighed deeply.

He felt a little depressed. This was not a solution. When he returned to Shangjing City, could he still keep an eye on these two people?

We have to find a way to prevent these two from meeting so often.

Why not just let her...

Although she would definitely not want to do it, he could offer her some conditions in exchange. If she still didn't want to do it, he would use the grace of saving her life before as a threat, and she would not dare to disobey!

Xiao Guo'er drooped her eyebrows and told Tang Jingchen about the Eighth Prince's order with guilt. Finally, she regretted in an indignant voice, "I wouldn't have tortured myself like this if I had known earlier. What's the difference between you studying and me studying? It's simply a loss of both the wife and the army! The annoying Eighth Prince, he doesn't know what the use of his two eyes is, and he has to torture others to study for him! Damn the privileged class!"

Tang Jingchen didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he tried to stop her from complaining incessantly. Her voice was so hoarse, yet she was still talking non-stop!

"Okay, stop talking and have a good rest. I told you not to use such a stupid method, but you insisted on using it. Now your throat is hurting, right? Lie down and have a rest. I don't have anything to do anyway, so I'll just study. It's no big deal. Why do you have to be so angry?"

Tang Jingchen comforted her gently, then lightly kissed her forehead, and then stroked the top of her head lovingly. Then he got off the carriage and walked towards the Eighth Prince's carriage.

Xiao Guo'er fell on the soft couch in the carriage with a dejected look on her face, feeling resentful.

But it didn't take long for her to realize that something was wrong!

A strong feeling of discomfort in her abdomen told her that she had a stomachache!

"Gurgle... Gurgle..." The ice water and the chili peppers made the stomach and intestines unable to bear the stimulation and kept making protesting sounds.

The pain in his abdomen had caused sweat to slowly appear on Xiaoguo'er's forehead.

What to do? They were on their way, there was no village or shop nearby, was she going to run away in the wilderness?

It’s not that it’s impossible, the key is that the current situation is that it has to be possible!

She could hardly bear it any longer!
