Do the old send off the young?
Yang Wenxiao’s eyes darkened at those words, which struck a painful chord in his heart, as he was anxiously wondering why the hellflower had not yet taken effect.
“Gag him and throw him into the dungeon. Ren Zhong, you lead the troops and follow the crown prince to raid the Shen family’s residence!”
Raiding a residence, especially the ho of the most prominent aristocratic family in Daqi, was the second most pleasing thing to Yang Wenxiao next to killing soone.
Ren Zhong received the order and imdiately acknowledged compliance.
Yang Hao, however, rose to his feet slowly, his face dark and overcast, and quietly assented as well.
Shen Bai was his good friend, and this Shen Chenghao was truly going to get his friend killed.
“Lock up every man, woman, and child in the dungeon, select a date for trial. Let us depart, back to the Palace,” Yang Wenxiao commanded with a stern face.
The crowd hastened to comply; those who were to clean the battlefield set about their task, those who were to treat the wounded did so, those who were to ride in the imperial carriage took their places, and those who were to raid the household set out, and everyone quickly got to work.
Qiao Xiaomai’s body had been cold throughout, and as soon as she returned to Da’an Palace, she imdiately ordered a palace maid to heat so water.
Tong Sanlang had gotten quite a bit of blood on him, and she had seen plenty of blood herself, she needed to bathe!
As much as she wanted to, Tong Sanlang was currently Yang Wenxiao’s right-hand man, and upon their return to Da’an Palace, Yang Wenxiao imdiately sent him to the Shen residence.
To prevent any remnants of the Shen family from causing trouble, he was tasked with ensuring Yang Hao’s safety.
It wouldn’t be until three days later that he returned.
His dark eyes were bloodshot, his face haggard; Qiao Xiaomai was startled to see him like this, “What happened to you?!”
“It’s nothing,” he waved it off. “I’m going to sleep for a bit. We’ll talk after I wake up.”
Having said this, he didn’t bother removing his clothes and just collapsed onto the bed to sleep.
Watching him like this, Qiao Xiaomai frowned with concern, went over to help him take off his shoes and clothes, and tucked him into the covers.
What on earth had he been doing…
Tong Sanlang slept for a full ten hours, twenty hours, almost a full day and night.
Waking up in the middle of the night, his stomach was groaning with hunger, and there was a fragrant, soft, warm body in his arms; he instinctively licked his lips and bit down.
Qiao Xiaomai was startled awake when her earlobe was bitten, realizing Tong Sanlang was awake she was imdiately overjoyed, “You’re awake?!”
By now, Tong Sanlang had also fully woken from his daze, realizing he had actually nibbled Qiao Xiaomai, he felt both amused and exasperated; but his stomach growled fiercely, and he reached out a hand to her, “Quick, get sothing to eat.”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai quickly took out a small table from her space; the table was laden with food, “What do you want to eat? You haven’t had a proper al these past few days, right? How about starting with so porridge?”
Tong Sanlang was so hungry he wouldn’t have minded devouring an entire cow at that mont, and he didn’t care about brushing his teeth or anything else. Utilizing the dim light from a lantern in the corridor outside, he grabbed a bowl and started slurping the porridge.
After finishing a bowl of porridge, he took up a bowl of noodles and wolfed them down rapidly.
After the noodles, he went on to eat pork knuckles, downing three along with three stead buns, several stead buns and a pile of fruit, and only then did he cease eating.
Watching him finish, Qiao Xiaomai handed him a cup of Spiritual Spring water, then asked, “How did you end up so hungry?”
“I went after soone,” Tong Sanlang gulped down the water in the cup, wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and then began to explain.
