After taking the gold and jade, she followed the palace servants to the door. Jinyu and Yingbi, who were waiting outside, stepped forward to greet her while they were busy.
Yingbi looked at her face carefully and saw that although it was heavy, it did not look dead, so she dared to ask cautiously.
"Third Grandma, how's it going?"
Xu Xiuyi gave her a comforting smile: "The fifth prince has already begged the emperor for us."
"Is this true?" Jin Yu's face was full of surprise.
Xu Xiuyi saw that this was not a place to talk about things, so she said to Jin Yuyingbi: "Let's talk about it when we go home."
Presumably, the old lady of the Su family is also on pins and needles now, waiting impatiently.
A group of cars set off and headed towards the Su Mansion Courtyard.
*
Fifth Prince's Mansion, second floor of Shuiyue Building.
An Chengshao looked at the purple clay kettle infatuatedly. It was clear that the woman had been gone for a long time, but she suddenly seemed to be in front of him. Her every frown, every smile, and every move made him lose his mind.
Wu Mo, the fifth prince, saw him looking at a kettle in a daze, intending to tease him, so he stepped forward to grab the kettle. Unexpectedly, the man from this family seemed to be foolish and foolish, but his hands and feet were very nimble. He rushed to grab the kettle.
Before it was taken away, he snatched it and put it in front of him.
"Hmph, others don't know, they think there is some big treasure hidden in this kettle. Isn't it the one she has touched before? Isn't it so rare?"
An Chengshao ignored him and looked at the kettle.
Wu Mo was a little bored, so he walked to him and sat down, holding his chin with his hands, and asked: "Is it so good? She is beautiful in life, but she is a widow after all."
Opposite him, a pair of sharp eyes glanced over, but Wu Mo refused to show any kindness and continued to dismiss Xu Xiuyi.
"You don't know what she is really like. She is very rigid and boring. The Lord Protector dotes on her like a treasure. He is afraid that she will be wronged by her husband's family in the future, so he has taught her how to be a wife since she was a child.
.Before becoming a monk, she was an honest and boring boudoir girl. After she got married, I wondered if she didn’t know anything about romance. Sure enough, her husband rolled into the bed of Ji Hong, the oiran of Chunxiang House, on the second night of their wedding.
She played and sang at home every night, so I guess she must have done something to displease her husband during the wedding night."
"Wu Mo, if you want to live peacefully this night, just shut your mouth."
He finally spoke, and Wu Mo felt quite accomplished. He sent Xu Xiuyi away just to tease An Chengshao. Now that An Chengshao was obviously angry, he was very happy in his heart, and naturally he refused to stop there.
He has only heard of volcanic eruptions, but has never seen iceberg eruptions. He has been working hard these years, but has never achieved results. It seems that except for people from the Su family, there is no one in the world who can make An Chengshao frown.
Now that he finally got one, he had to make good use of it.
If you think about it carefully, even if Xu Xiuyi has not been slept with by Su Jinyuan, he can still be regarded as a member of the Su family. An Chengshao must have been at odds with members of the Su family in his life.
But when Wu Mo looked at Master An Cheng, he knew that he and Xu Xiuyi would rush forward, and Master An Cheng would be happy to do so.
"It's not that I'm being disrespectful for you. You are also a young man, and Xu Xiuyi is a widow and second-hand goods."
A pair of black eyes fell on Wu Mo's face like ice knives. Even if Wu Mo had the intention to tease An Chengshao, he was still frightened by him. He finally stopped and muttered boringly: "It's just a talk, and you're still staring.
Me."
An Chengshao snorted coldly: "If I said that to Xu Lanqing, how would you feel?"
This sentence poked Wu Mo's weak point, and his face suddenly turned ugly: "Why are you bringing him up so well? Do you think I'm not aggrieved enough?"
An Chengshao raised his head and looked at Wu Mo with an indifferent expression: "If you want it, you have to lower your attitude. For a person with integrity like Xu Lanqing, if you use sincerity, he may not obey you, let alone you."
You took things by force and sent troops to protect you. I heard about your feats outside the customs. I was so frightened that Xu Lanqing went to the countryside to hide. What's the difference between you and a local ruffian?"
"Lower your attitude, joke, I'd rather not get it than do something that jeopardizes my worth."
An Chengshao snorted again: "It's up to you, it's none of my business anyway. If you still listen to my advice, just drive away these hypocritical male favorites. You are just doing it to piss off Xu Lanqing."
, but it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t hurt him or not, I even wish you had a new love so don’t provoke him.”
This sentence really touched Wu Mo's sore spot.
He lowered his face and said, "If you bring up this topic again, you and I will have nothing to talk about."
"Easy." An Chengshao's attitude was casual.
Wu Mo was furious: "Do you really think I haven't humbled myself before? I just had to take off my clothes and tell him that I was a woman, but what could I do? If I revealed my identity, my whole body would be affected, and I would be the first to suffer.
They are my mother-in-law and my uncle’s family.”
An Cheng saw that she was really angry, so he finally stopped provoking her and just warned: "I don't want you to mention this matter, and you don't want to do anything about it in the future."
Wu Mo's expression finally softened, and he smiled a bit, rather mischievously.
"What does it mean to have something but not have something?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch An Chengshao's sleeves ambiguously.
An Chengshao pulled back and said coldly: "If you really have nothing to do, go to the palace more often and beg the emperor to see if you can give the Su family a lighter sentence."
Wu Mo rolled his eyes at him, leaned back, and sat back on the chair lazily: "Are you insisting that I risk my life for your woman? Don't you see that when I begged the emperor this morning, the emperor
Brother, he looked like he was going to kill me, but after I showed my crippled hand, Brother Huang changed his face, forgave me, and promised me that the Su family would be exempted from the death penalty."
The words "your woman" are very useful in An Chengshao's ears.
He knew that Wu Mo also tried his best, and he was grateful in his heart.
"I owe you a favor, and I will pay it back in the future."
"That's all, speaking of favors, I owe you the most. This is evened out once and for all. Anyway, in the end, it just exposed my arms, received a few scoldings, and knelt down for a few hours.
"
Wu Mo looked indifferent, but An Chengshao knew that the scar was a great pain in her heart, and it was a painful memory every time she looked at it.
He stood up and saluted Wu Mo: "I sincerely thank you."
Wu Mo was frightened by him and hurriedly stood up: "You can just say thank you to me. You are so innocent that you will shorten my life and still worship me. You have the time to thank me, why not think about how to make Xu Xiuyi
To clear up the misunderstanding about you, she may think that you are my male favorite and you also have the habit of Longyang."
Wu Mo didn't want the topic to go in a serious direction, so he deliberately brought it back.
I thought Young Master An Cheng would definitely have a headache over this, just like her, she had such a headache that she couldn't let Xu Lanqing know that she was born as a girl.
Although An Chengshao seemed to be very calm.
"I have my own way."
Wu Mo came over with great interest: "Don't tell me that you are going to break into her boudoir in the middle of the night and force the Duke of Zhou to perform the ceremony to prove her innocence."
Master An Cheng glanced at him: "How could I do such a beastly thing?"
Wu Mo joked: "You are simply worse than an animal. You are like a flower and a beautiful wife. You are inseparable in the same room for seven days and seven nights. You can still control it. How can you not be worse than an animal?"
An Chengshao was speechless when he was told that this fifth prince said he was born as a girl. How could he be so reserved as a girl?
