Chapter 140: Little Lady Raises Snakes Secretly

He saw the young lady take this box. On the day when she was packing up her things at the East Third Office, she personally put the box into the package she was carrying.

He moved very carefully, as if there were priceless valuables inside.

During the days in the Old Summer Palace, he often saw the young concubine playing with the box in her hands. When she saw him come in, she would put it away and put it back on the dressing table.

He lowered his eyes to look at the place where he had just found the wooden box, which was located in the gap behind the window frame. It was obvious that someone had placed it there deliberately and it was not dropped accidentally.

Could it be that the young lady left it here?

Or is it for other reasons?

What exactly is inside?

Countless questions and answers flashed through Yinzhen's mind in an instant.

He leaned his hand on the window sill and looked towards the yard. His sharp eyes swept around, but there was no one.

Then place your finger on the lid and apply gentle pressure.

It’s over, it’s over, it’s over… Qi Xi covered his eyes with the tip of the snake’s tail as if trying to cover his ears and steal a bell.

"click"

The brocade box was completely opened, revealing a small light green snake coiled in an oval shape, not even as thick as a chopstick.

Yinzhen's eyes fell on it, with a look of surprise.

The concubine was raising snakes behind his back? Was it this little thing that was secretly watching him just now?

With such a bright color, this snake must be poisonous. Concubine Xiao is so bold that she dares to keep a poisonous snake in the palace.

Ever since the box was opened, the room has been plunged into silence as if under a spell.

Qi Xi lay in the box for a long time, but did not hear any unusual sounds or movements from the other party.

Was he scared out of his wits? Or did the Fourth Master have poor eyesight and not see him?

The little snake spirit tentatively moved the tip of its tail, revealing a small gap and opened its eyes.

By chance, she bumped into Yinzhen's deep eyes, which were filled with scrutiny and full of vigilance.

Oops! I've been discovered!

Haha~ He opened his snake mouth and spit out the tongue, then moved his body naturally and crawled around in the box.

Since he has been discovered, it is better for him to pretend to be an ordinary snake. If he is discovered and has gained intelligence, he will be burned to death as a demon.

The man and the snake were in a stalemate.

"Master~What are you doing standing at the window?"

While she was sleeping, the person next to her disappeared. Xiyu sat up and rubbed her eyes, and saw a tall figure standing at the window with his back to her, holding something in his hand...

Box!

She woke up almost instantly, swallowed nervously, and said in a trembling voice, "Master..."

"Ah."

Yinzhen responded in a low voice, then slightly turned sideways, closed the box in his hand and put it back in its place, returned to the bed, and naturally held Xiaofujin in his arms, "I just heard a noise from the window, so I got up to take a look."

"Is there anything in the window?"

Xiyu followed his movements, found a comfortable position to lie down in front of him, and asked slowly.

"I didn't find anything. It must be the wind." Yinzhen kissed the top of her head. "It's still early. Let's sleep for a while."

Qi Xi huddled his body tightly in the corner of the box, [Wow, wow, wow~ He lied to you, he just found out about me...]

Xiyu was startled and opened her eyes again, her sight just falling on the man's collar.

He was discovered, yet he acted as if nothing had happened... What is he thinking about now?

Qixi is a poisonous snake. Will Yinzhen doubt her intention of raising snakes?

She pinched the hair hanging in front of her body and twisted it around with her fingers, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.

[Oh, by the way, the first wife has given birth successfully, our mission has been completed, and the Monster Management Bureau has distributed the spiritual power for this mission. ]

"You have spiritual power, why didn't you change your form just now? A hairpin or a bracelet will do."

[You forgot, the spiritual power that just entered your body will take twelve hours to be used.]

Qi Xi's voice sounded a little aggrieved. [I didn't expect that he had such sharp senses and noticed it right away.]

"As long as it has spiritual power, it's fine. The day after tomorrow I will tell him: I picked you up by accident, I kept you for a few days because you were cute, and I have asked someone to take you out and release you."

After saying this, the little snake spirit's voice no longer reached his ears.

'Why don't you speak?'

Qixi twisted her body in the brocade box, her light green snake face was hot, and her voice was timid: [You praise me for being cute, I feel a little shy...]

Xiyu: "......"

She didn't respond and turned her attention to the system panel.

It records the updated physical data. The physical health value has increased by 2% and now reaches 90%.

The remaining survival days doubled to 1120, which is more than three years, a very safe number.

Very positive feedback, her previous efforts were not in vain.

With more than three years to live, even if her health value drops, she can still live out the remaining three years in bed, and she still has a chance to take on tasks again and recuperate.

Low battery, longer lasting, she fell asleep contentedly.

Listening to the increasingly even breathing, Yinzhen opened his eyes, lowered his eyes to look at the little wife in his arms, and gently rubbed her face with his fingers.

You can take care of flowers and plants, write storybooks, and even raise poisonous snakes... Is there anything else you don't know? I'm really curious...

The morning light slowly rose, dyeing everything with golden light, and taking away the crystal dewdrops that had stained the branches in the darkness.

The delivery room had not been cleaned up yesterday, and Yinzhi was stopped outside the door and not allowed to enter. Today, he was waiting at the door as soon as the sun came out.

Gui Rong came out of the room and was stopped by Yin Zhi who was guarding the door. "How is it? Is Fu Jin awake?"

"Wake up, wake up. Fu Jin is asking the prince to come in."

Seeing that the prince cared so much about his wife, Gui Rong was happy from the bottom of her heart, and felt that his wife's devotion was not in vain.

When Yinzhi walked into the bedroom, he saw his wife leaning against the head of the bed, her face rosy and her eyes flickering with light.

But when the palace maid fed the medicine into her mouth, she frowned because of the bitterness.

Yinzhi smiled as he walked to the table and took a light brown object from the tray. When Dafujin finished drinking the medicine, he put it into her mouth at the right time. "How is it? Is it sweeter?"

The eldest wife's eyes curved, she bit the candied fruit in her mouth and nodded gently, and she didn't speak until she swallowed the candied fruit in her mouth, "Did Master see our son yesterday?"

"I saw it. After washing, it became white and plump, and looked very strong."

Speaking of his son, the rough man with a thick beard smiled a little silly, drew a circle in front of him with his hands, and then suddenly remembered that Fu Jin fell asleep yesterday after giving birth to the child, "You haven't seen it yet..."

"Gui Rong went to hug her."

As he was speaking, Guirong came in with the wet nurse and the little prince.

The eldest wife's eyes softened a little. She propped herself up to take the child, holding him in her arms and teasing him.

The little prince in her arms seemed to know that the person in front of him was his mother. He stared at her with his eyes open, smacking his lips and grinning from time to time.

He has curved eyebrows and eyes, and his smile is very similar to that of the First Lady.

The couple was watching happily, but they didn't expect an uninvited guest to come.

The maid guarding the door came in to report, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhang Jia is here to visit, and along with her are the people who were arranged to stay at the Old Summer Palace."

The first wife asked in confusion: "Why are they here together?"

Yinzhi lowered his eyes and looked towards the door, his eyes slightly cold, "Maybe he met him by chance."

"Tell them to come in."
