When they heard Xue Dafu’s voice, the villagers quickly got up and came to the entrance of Xue Dafu’s courtyard with their weapons to help catch the thief.
However, since the door of Xue Dafu’s house was closed from the inside, they could only shout and ask first.
When Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia heard this, they felt bad for waking up the villagers. They hurriedly went to the front, opened the courtyard door, and explained to the villagers. Only then did the villagers go back to sleep.
With so many people from the village coming with weapons, Shao Zhongxi and Qi Yin naturally knew about the commotion. They came over to take a look and stood among the crowd.
After listening to Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia’s explanation, they went back to the old house.
Xue Dafu and Liu Guixia saw that everyone had left, so they closed the courtyard door and came to the back.
Because Xue Yifu and Xue Erfu were in a hurry to leave the room, they didn’t wear their outerwear and only wore their undergarments. It was still a little cold at night this month, so they quickly went back and put on another outerwear. Then, they came to the back.
Everyone asked Emperor Hao if he wanted to apply some medicine on his back from the earlier attacks. Emperor Hao smiled and shook his head, saying that he was fine and did not need to apply medicine.
They sat in the small room in the middle of the back for a while and talked for a while. Seeing that it was late at night, they left. Xue Dafu and the others went to sleep again.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were still sitting in the same room.
Emperor Hao was naturally there.
Shao Youyue sat by the window beside the lamp on the brick bed and did not speak.
Shao Youyue didn’t say anything. Zi Cui, Xia Han, Miao Han, and Xue Liu didn’t dare to say anything. They all stood below and waited on her quietly.
Seeing that Shao Youyue wanted to drink tea again, Emperor Hao quickly stopped her. He changed the warm water for her and smiled gently. “It’s better not to drink so much tea. If you drink too much tea at night, you won’t be able to sleep.”
Hearing this, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other, wanting to leave.
However, Shao Youyue asked them to sit inside while she sat outside. It was obvious that she did not want them to leave…
They didn’t need to make any decisions now. In the following days, the identity of the Emperor being here would be seen as Shao Youyue’s husband who didn’t die of illness.
They didn’t even need to think of another cover story. The Emperor himself had already helped solve that issue for them.
Shao Youyue took a sip of warm water and asked indifferently, “When are you going back?”
The Empress was finally willing to talk to him. Even though her tone was indifferent, Emperor Hao smiled. He immediately said, “Mother is handling the matters in the capital. I don’t have to rush back. I was told that I could stay for at least half a month before I go back.”
At least half a month?
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other again. They could go to the military camp first.
After that, Xue Yan spoke up and said to Emperor Hao, “Father, my brothers are all at the Southern Camp. Sanfu is a commander now and would often bring people out to patrol the army camp. He might hear about my matter very soon, but I want to tell him personally and not let him hear it from others. I want to go to the army camp with Jiang Yue. It’s not too far away and we will be back in at most a day or two.”
Emperor Hao nodded slowly and agreed. “It’s better for him to hear from you than someone else. You should go to the military camp. When do you plan to go?”
“l want to tell my family tomorrow and go the day after tomorrow.” Xue Yan said.
Emperor Hao nodded again, “Alright, then you can go the day after tomorrow morning. ”
“Also, please apply some medicine on your back..”
