Women dressed as men: powerful officials

Chapter 336 Let me solve it

After the meal, Xuyuan went ahead to pay the bill.

After Wu Shiming came out, he learned that Xu Yuan had already paid the bill, so he had to remind the shopkeeper again that every time Xu Yuan came to eat in the future, the bill would be charged to him.

The afternoon sun is just right.

When Xu Yuan walked out of Wu Ji Restaurant, he saw a carriage parked in front of him.

The moment she came out, the curtain of the carriage was lifted a little, but after a glance, the curtain dropped down.

The next moment, Bei Yao got off the carriage and said, "I'm late. I heard that you guys have been gone for a long time. I didn't want to disturb you, so I didn't go up."

After Bei Yao finished explaining the reason, he glanced at the people walking on the street and asked, "I'll take you home. Do you want to take a carriage or walk?"

"Miss." Huamei carefully tugged at Xuyuan's sleeve.

Xu Yuan lowered his eyes and said, "Let's take the carriage."

thrush:"……"

Since she had already made her wish, she couldn't say anything more and could only resign herself to her fate and walk beside the carriage.

When Huamei saw Beiyao reaching out to help Xuyuan onto the carriage, she stomped her feet in anger.

But the other party was the prince, so she dared not speak out despite her anger.

In the carriage, there was a faint scent of incense. Beiyao handed the cake to Xuyuan and said, "Try it. I just asked Chengxi to buy it."

"I don't like eating cakes." Xu Yuan put the cakes back, looked at Bei Yao and asked, "How is the palace? Where is the prince? Is he okay?"

"Aren't you going to ask me if I've been doing well in the palace these days?"

Beiyao also didn't understand why other people were flirting with each other, but when he and Xu Yuan sat together, they had endless business to talk about.

Beiyao really didn't want to mention anything else.

He just wanted to stay with Xuyuan quietly for a while, even if he didn't do anything or say anything.

Seeing Beiyao's unhappiness written all over his face, Xu Yuan immediately comforted him, "Okay, I won't ask anymore, and I won't ask anymore in the future."

Although Bei Yao didn't say anything, Xu Yuan guessed that since Bei Yao was able to leave the palace and accompany her for a stroll, it probably meant that everything had been handled.

It doesn’t really matter whether she asks or not.

Thinking of this, Xu Yuan felt relieved and chatted: "Speaking of which, I really have something I want to ask you recently."

Bei Yao raised his eyebrows and asked, "You say."

"Qi Shengxin was ordered to escort Song Xiujing back to Geshu tribe. No matter how long the journey was, he should have returned to the capital by now, right? Why is there no movement?"

"I haven't asked. If you want to know, I'll ask Chen Shan to check it out tomorrow."

Wishing nodded.

Bei Yao said: "Why do you suddenly think of Qi Shengxin?"

"I don't want to hide it from you. I suspect that the person who sent the letter to my brother was Qi Shengzhu, but I have no evidence. I am also not sure whether Qi Shengxin was involved. So, I need to know when Qi Shengxin will return to Beijing before I can decide where to start investigating this matter."

Although Wu Shiming told her today that some people from the Song family had left the capital, Xu Yuan did not believe it.

It is easy to tell whether this matter is true or not. If her guess is correct, the murderer will soon reveal himself.

She just had to be patient and wait.

Bei Yao didn't say anything, but just gently held Xuyuan's hand.

"What are you doing, in broad daylight."

She felt a little embarrassed to make a wish. Thinking of what Huamei had whispered in her ear every day, a blush slowly crept up her cheeks.

She quickly withdrew her hand and said, "Beiyao, we have to agree that we can't do this outside. For the sake of my reputation, we have to keep a proper distance."

While making a wish, he was still thinking that it was all thanks to the thrush.

If it weren't for Huamei, she would definitely not be able to think of these things.

For so many years, she lived as a man, spoke and acted in a man's style, and never thought about what impact this would have on her.

But things are different now.

She is a woman, she needs to value her reputation and keep an appropriate distance from men.

Regardless of whether that person is Beiyao.

Bei Yao said faintly: "We will get married."

Moreover, before this, they had slept in the same bed.

However, Beiyao knew that he couldn't say these words.

"That has to wait until after we get married." Xu Yuan strictly forbade it.

"alright."

Bei Yao patted his sleeves and sat a little further away. "Miss Xu, from today on, I will strictly abide by the rules and will never step out of line."

"Very good, we both need to pay attention." Xu Yuan nodded.

The carriage swayed past and stopped in front of Xu's house.

Bei Yao jumped off the carriage first and ordered Cheng Xi to prepare a stool, and then he looked up at the Xu residence in front of him.

When Xuyuan got off the carriage, Beiyao was still watching.

Xu Yuan couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Aren't you going back?"

"No hurry, I'm thinking." Bei Yao shook his head.

"Thinking about what?"

"Think about how to propose marriage to your father."

"Huh?" Xu Yuan was suddenly stunned, "What did you say?"

On the side, Cheng Xi said with a smile: "Miss Xu, the prince has already obtained the imperial decree to grant the marriage, but this matter needs your father's consent as well."

The moment Cheng Xi finished speaking, Xu Yuan felt as if everything around him was in a trance.

She looked at Beiyao and asked in disbelief, "Really?"

"Of course it's true. If you can't even handle such a small matter, why should I take you back to the capital?" Bei Yao looked at Xu Yuan, and the smile on his face deepened little by little.

He murmured, "I said, as long as you are willing, I will take care of other things and other troubles."
