Chapter 315: Please leave now
After turning into a black bird, Zuo Weizhong secretly carried Princess Purple Kite from the carriage, and flew straight back to his mansion in Wanye Kingdom.
In order to avoid being spotted by the servant, he flew directly into his bedroom. The bedroom window had already opened a gap before he left. Needless to say, this gap was of course to facilitate his own entry and exit.
Ever since Zuo Weizhong was able to use spells to transform himself into a bird, he always left a gap in his bedroom window before going out for a tryst with the princess so he could go back by himself. He also reminded the servant again and again that this gap in the window must not be closed. Although the servant found this command strange, he still followed it, because after all, the master's words were imperial decree.
At this time, heavy snow flew outside the window, the cold wind howled, and the windows were frozen. The people of Wanye Kingdom were unable to go out for a living. They all hid at home around the fireplace to drink and chat to keep warm and pass the time.
Two little birds, one black, one light purple, and the black one carrying the light purple. Although they look strange, no one sees them, because there is no one on the street, and occasionally people who go out shopping also treat themselves Covered tightly, the goose feathers and snow flakes flying in the sky seriously obstructed people's vision, causing no one to see them.
As soon as Zuo Weizhong entered the bedroom, he immediately closed the window tightly. Then he filled the fireplace with firewood, poured oil, and cleared the ground. The fire in the fireplace was blazing, and the temperature in the house immediately rose a lot. He gave Ziyuan The princess relieved the spell, then held her in her arms to help her warm her frozen body.
Outside it was icy and snowy, and the wind was bitter, and Zuo Weizhong carried her so far, that the delicate princess had long been frozen.
In the foyer of Zuo Weizhong’s mansion, the servant sits by the warm fireplace and drinks a bottle of low-quality wine. Every time his master Zuo Weizhong goes out, he secretly pours some yellow soup to relieve his greed. Wine is a good thing. After that, I felt dizzy and didn't think about anything.
"What woman? Silver? Future? Dreams? Go to **** all the time." The servant drank in a daze, raised the bottle and raised his neck, then took a big sip, and the wine went into melancholy. At first it was cold and whistling, very It quickly became hot, churn in his stomach, he liked the warm feeling in his stomach.
In order to prevent the master from coming back suddenly, the servant didn’t know. He had already figured out a countermeasure. He tore off one of his long hair and wrapped it around the door bolt so that when the master came back, he wouldn’t open the door suddenly. , Give him a time to hide the wine bottle and stand up to greet the owner. Of course, this hair will be pulled off at once, but it doesn’t matter, because of the existence of this hair, the time for the owner to open the door will be delayed a little A few seconds, a few seconds is enough for him to stand up. However, he only dared to wrap his hair around the door bolt. If the owner came back and couldn't open the door with a strong rope, he would definitely get angry. You can imagine the degree of irritation that any master cannot open his door when he returns home.
When Zuo Weizhong got up to get the blanket for the princess, he accidentally touched a pot of flowers on the table to the ground. With a crash, the flowerpot fell to pieces.
The servant who was dizzy and drunk heard the sound of things being broken in the master bedroom, and the wine immediately woke up halfway. He jumped up suddenly, hid the wine bottle, walked to the door of the master bedroom, knocked on the door and asked. , "Master, are you back?"
Zuo Weizhong replied, "Yes, it's me."
"Master, is there something broken? Can I go in and clean it up?"
Zuo Weizhong said, "No, you go to my study and wait for me, I have something to tell you."
The servant said, "Okay."
The servant is an old bachelor in his fifties. He belongs to the Three No Persons, a tramp. Zuo Weizhong found him on the street and brought him home. From then on, the servant can live in a warm and comfortable house and eat. He was full, but what he did was simple. He helped Zuo Weizhong clean the house and cook three meals a day, but Zuo Weizhong was often not at home, so he was at home alone every day. For a lonely homeless man, this is undoubtedly a pretty good job.
Recently, the servant feels that his master Zuo Weizhong is becoming more and more mysterious. For many times, when the servant entered his bedroom to clean up the room, the bedroom was still empty, but at some point, the master had already returned, such as this Second, when he went in to fill the firewood just now, there was no one in the bedroom. Why did he hear movement in his room in the blink of an eye, and then asked, the man has returned, and today, the servant has been nap by the fireplace in the hall. , If the master comes back, he must go through the gate, but no one came in through the gate just now.
The servant walked back to the hall unconsciously. The door was still bolted firmly. The bolt was on by him. He marked it and wrapped a piece of hair around the bolt, and the hair was still there.
The servant pulled the hair from the doorbolt and threw it into the fireplace. The hair screamed and caught fire.
The servant sighed, walked obediently into the study, and stood there waiting for Zuo Weizhong.
Zuo Weizhong wrapped the princess in a blanket and asked her to lie down by the fireplace to keep warm. Then he locked the bedroom door and headed for the study.
The servant who had been waiting in the study met Zuo Weizhong a long time ago and immediately saluted, "Master, you were not there just now. I was worried that the fireplace in the bedroom went out and I went in to add firewood. I saw that the window was not closed tightly. I wanted to close it. Thinking of your instructions, I still left the window open."
Zuo Weizhong nodded and said, "Very well, you did a good job."
Zuo Weizhong frowned and sniffed vigorously, "Why, are you drinking again?"
The servant smiled awkwardly, "Master, it's too cold today. So I drank some to warm up."
Zuo Weizhong snorted coldly, "That's it, you have worked with me for a long time. This is your wages." After that, Zuo Weizhong threw a bag of money to the servant.
The servant took the money and looked at Zuo Weizhong in surprise, with an unknown premonition welling up in his heart, "Master, I will quit drinking in the future and never drink again."
Zuo Weizhong shook his head, "No, you don't have to give up drinking for me. I have paid you the wages. Please leave my house now."
The servant knelt at Zuo Weizhong's feet with a thump, and yelled in despair, "Huh? But Master, it's snowing outside, it's freezing, you know I have nowhere to go."
There was no expression on Zuo Weizhong's face, "Okay, please leave now. The money will be enough for you to live happily for a while." After that, he made a gesture of seeing off the guests.
The servant sighed and had to go back to his room, packed his things, wrapped his coat tightly, and walked out of the gate of the mansion of the national teacher.
