Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 143 Xu Lin enters Madam Hu's bedroom

the other side.

Xinzheng, South Korea, Zuo Sima Mansion.

Mrs. Hu was pacing back and forth in her bedroom.

She has a gentle temperament, giving people a sense of elegance and tranquility. Her neck and shoulders are slightly exposed, showing off her beautiful figure. Perhaps because she is nearly thirty, she is not flamboyant at first glance. Her beauty is understated and needs to be appreciated carefully.

She wore an elegant blue-green long dress with gold trim, which accentuated her grace and nobility.

She wore a 'Fire Rain Agate' given to her by Li Kai, the former Right Sima of the Korean Kingdom, around her waist.

Why hasn't Liu Yi returned yet?

Madam Hu frowned, thinking to herself.

The reason she sent the steward to find Liu Yi was not because she missed him, but because she had encountered a lowly servant when she went to the theater to watch a play during the day.

That lowly servant looks a lot like Li Kai.

What should she do if Li Kai is still alive?
If Liu Yi knew about this, would he let Li Kai go?

Is Li Kairuo still alive? Is her daughter Nongyu still alive?

Madam Hu wanted to know if Nongyu was still alive and where she was, but she dared not rashly go to see that lowly servant.

Because the lowly servant's eyes were exactly the same as Li Kai's back then.

Could it be Li Kai?

Madam Hu sat upright at the table, drawing the lowly servant from memory while muttering to herself.

More than ten years have passed, and she is no longer that naive and ignorant girl.

After finishing the painting, Madam Hu frowned and fell into deep thought.

If he really is Li Kai, what can be done?
Just as Madam Hu was racking her brains trying to figure it out, the butler Zhang Yang returned.

"lady."

"The master said he won't be able to come back for the next few days."

Zhang Yang reported with his head bowed.

He dared not look up at Madam Hu.

Because Liu Yi had killed several guards for this reason.

How dare you servants look at Liu Yi's women?
"Why?"

Madam Hu looked puzzled.

"The master said he has military affairs to attend to recently."

Zhang Yang explained.

Madam Hu nodded thoughtfully, then dismissed Zhang Yang.

"Could he already know about that lowly servant?"

After Zhang Yang walked away, Madam Hu thought to herself.

After saying this, she immediately burned the portrait of the lowly servant she had just painted.

"This is a serious matter; let's discuss it with my sister in a few days."

After a moment's hesitation, Madam Hu pursed her lips.

Then he closed the doors and windows and lay down on the soft couch.

……

Three days later.

Xinzheng, military camp.

Liu Yi received a letter from Madam Hu.

In her letter, Madam Hu said that she missed Liu Yi and hoped that Liu Yi could come home when he had time.

After reading it, Liu Yi couldn't stop laughing!

This was the first time since he married Madam Hu that Madam Hu had said she missed him. Although she didn't say it herself, Liu Yi was still very satisfied!

"grown ups."

"Madam seems very worried lately, as if something is on her mind. Perhaps you..."

Zhang Yang respectfully offered his advice.

He was interrupted sharply by Liu Yi before he could finish speaking.

How do you know my wife has something on her mind?

"You were peeping at her?"

Liu Yi questioned angrily.

"My subordinates dare not!"

"I have heard Madam sighing a lot these past few days, and I suspect that she has something on her mind."

Zhang Yang immediately knelt down on one knee.

"You don't need to teach me how to do things!"

"Go back and tell Madam that I will return after I finish my military duties!"

Liu Yi said with a displeased expression.

"Yes!"

Zhang Yang immediately accepted the order.

Then he bowed and left.

After Zhang Yang walked away, Liu Yi read Madam Hu's letter again.

After reading it, he put it under his pillow and looked towards Zilan Pavilion.

Xu Lin's plan worked!
Last time, Madam Hu sent Zhang Yang to urge him to go home. This time, she wrote a letter saying she missed him. Next time, Madam Hu will definitely come to the military camp to find him in person!
Upon realizing this, Liu Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter. If Xu Lin had given him some guidance earlier, would Madam Hu have slept in a separate room from him?
After Madam Hu came to him, he wanted to thank Xu Lin handsomely!

It's a pity that Xu Lin is the son of the ruler of Qin, otherwise he could have let Xu Lin join the army.

Liu Yi was not good at planning, but with Xu Lin's guidance, he felt like he had wings!
……

at the same time.

Xu Mansion, on the outskirts of Xinzheng City.

Yan Lingji walked slowly to Xu Lin and handed him two sheets of paper.

One is a map of Xinzheng, and the other is a map of the interior of the Zuo Sima Mansion.

"So fast?"

"It seems I didn't save the wrong person after all!"

Xu Lin teased with a smile.

Then I looked closely at the map.

Yan Lingji's drawing is excellent; she specifically marked out the Left Sima Mansion and Madam Hu's bedroom.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji put her hands on her waist, hesitating to speak.

She knew that Xu Lin had ulterior motives in sending people to rescue her!
"What does my benefactor need a map of the Left Sima's residence for?"

"Madam Liu is voluptuous and a beauty that comes out of the millions. Has our benefactor taken a liking to her?"

Yan Lingji sat diagonally on the bamboo chair, crossing her long, fair right leg over her left, and asked while swaying back and forth.

Like Xu Lin, she also dislikes kneeling.

She liked to sit casually on a bamboo chair or soft couch, then cross her legs.

"No."

"I can't bear to see beautiful women suffer, so I wanted to lend a helping hand, that's all."

Xu Lin immediately denied it.

When one achieves success, one should help others in the world; this is what he calls "doing one good deed every day"!
Yan Lingji's face darkened upon hearing this.

If she weren't afraid of making Xu Lin angry, she really wanted to give him a good scolding!
"Isn't my benefactor someone who regrets not meeting Liu Sima sooner?"

"If we were to attack Lady Liu at this time, wouldn't our benefactor be afraid that word would get out and damage his reputation?"

After a moment of contemplation, Yan Lingji asked.

"What does what Xu Zhengchun did have to do with me, Xu Lin?"

Xu Lin disagrees.

Moreover, he doesn't care about his reputation.

Why would a time traveler need such a good reputation?
……

That night.

The night is getting darker.

After dinner, Xu Lin walked to the residence of the Left Sima.

Riding a horse would be too noisy, so walking is the only option.

Madam Hu had just finished bathing and was sitting in front of her dressing table drying her hair.

Mrs. Hu's nightgown was of excellent quality, which accentuated her gentle and elegant demeanor.

Although Mrs. Hu rarely went out, she had virtually no excess fat and very fair skin with a rosy glow.

"Again, two, and three."

"If I see him again, I must get to the bottom of this!"

Madam Hu bit her thin lips lightly, thinking to herself.

She saw that lowly servant again today, this time outside the Left Sima's residence.

The sun had not yet set when the lowly servant lingered outside the gate of the Left Sima's residence for nearly half an incense stick's time.

Although she hadn't said a word to that lowly servant yet, she was already pretty sure that the man was Li Kai!
Therefore, that man has been staring at the Fire Rain Agate on her waist all day.

"If he really is Li Kai."

Why is he alone?

Where is Yu'er?

Madam Hu frowned slightly and murmured.

She liked Li Kai a lot more than ten years ago, but that was more than ten years ago.

Now she is Liu Yi's wife. It's been more than ten years since we last met. Who knows if Li Kai has married a new wife? And what kind of person she has become?

Not to mention that she felt it was better to stay still than to move, even if she wanted to move, Liu Yi would definitely not agree!
After pondering for a long time, Madam Hu laid a clean towel on her pillow and then lay down on the soft couch.

Her hair was very long and wouldn't dry quickly, so she needed to put a clean towel on her pillow.

……

After a stick of incense.

Mrs. Hu drifted off to sleep.

Xu Lin channeled his inner energy and entered Madam Hu's room with the wind.

His black robe blended seamlessly with the night. The guards of the Left Sima Mansion only felt a gust of wind before Xu Lin entered Madam Hu's bedroom.

Madam Hu placed her hands on her waist, her full and shapely breasts rising and falling, causing the brocade quilt covering her to sway and rise as well.

There was a faint, pleasant fragrance in the bedroom, not the scent of rouge or face powder, but Madam Hu's unique body fragrance.

After taking a few deep sniffs, Xu Lin slowly walked towards the still charming Madam Hu.
