Cang Qiao looked at her and suddenly stretched out his hand to straighten her cloak: "You know, tonight's main auction item belongs to the Xiao family."
He used affirmative sentences.
Ming Lanruo paused, knowing that she couldn't hide it from him after all. She nodded: "Well, you know it, right?"
He has a good identity, and Beatrice has probably given him the full scoop just now.
Cang Qiao's eyes were dark: "No matter what it is, don't act rashly. The further away from everything in the Xiao family, the better."
Ming Lanruo looked at him and almost couldn't help but say - she was afraid she couldn't do it.
Not only is she not getting further and further away from the Xiao family, but she is already the only heir recognized by the Xiao family's power.
"Why, the Xiao family has been extinct for nearly twenty years, what is the threat? If I can take back my grandfather's relics, it will be a comfort to my mother's spirit in heaven." She finally asked calmly.
A complicated light flashed in Cang Qiao's eyes, and she said calmly: "The Xiao family is His Majesty's opponent. When His Majesty came to the throne, many people were dissatisfied. The main force of the Xiao family was at the border. Many people hoped that the Xiao family would raise the flag of rebellion. Even the former East
The feudal princes who were exterminated by the factory were also under the banner of clearing the name of the late emperor and clearing the grievances of the Xiao family."
"Although Marshal Xiao later led several major generals to all die in battle, and the Xiao family's women, children, and children also had accidents on Fuling Road, there were still rebels in the name of the Xiao family and the late emperor, so even now,
The Xiao family is still the most taboo in His Majesty's heart."
Ming Lanruo lowered her long eyelashes: "And I have a special status. Although I am a daughter of the Ming family, if I get involved with things from the Xiao family, your majesty will think that I have second thoughts."
In fact, she had long known Emperor Ming's taboos, but she did not expect that the Xiao family had such great appeal.
"It's good that you know, so no matter what the auction is later, promise me you won't take action."
Cang Qiao looked at her deeply, his dark and deep eyes seemed to be able to see through her heart.
Ming Lanruo raised her head and sighed softly: "Well, I understand."
He was doing it for her own good, how could she not understand.
Cang Qiao suddenly gave her a piece of news: "The real owner of the black market is Your Majesty."
Ming Lanruo's pupils shrank and she looked at him in disbelief: "What?!"
Cang Qiao whispered: "Otherwise, why do you think I am here? I am naturally responsible for monitoring the stability of the black market."
The black market is a deformed existence. Emperor Ming relied on the black market to raise funds for his rebellion. Later, after he won the throne, he handed over the black market to the prince.
The prince controls the black market. In recent years, Emperor Ming has become more and more indifferent, but in general, Emperor Ming's intelligence in the black market should not be underestimated.
Ming Lanruo suddenly raised her eyes, looked at him and asked, "Do you know about the hunting grounds outside?"
Cang Qiao said calmly: "That was the prince's idea. The clan and nobles who supported your majesty back then needed entertainment. The prince and your majesty needed money. They hit it off right away, so what do the people mean to them."
Ming Lanruo couldn't help but whispered: "Can't you stop it? You can obviously do it with your current ability, and the weak should not be trampled on!"
She could not forget the fear in the eyes of those in the hunting grounds, the desire and pain for survival. She had also been trampled and tortured as a 'weak', so she naturally understood the injustice and unwillingness.
Cang Qiao looked at her for a while and smiled lightly: "Why should I stop it? I am a sycophant. Have you forgotten? The weak will not be trampled on, how can the strong be trampled on?"
Ming Lanruo looked at him with complicated emotions and said nothing.
"Why, do you think people like me are vicious, disgusting and despicable?" He smiled and slowly touched her face with his hand.
He suddenly expected to see the fear and even hatred for him in her eyes, just like what he often saw in other people's eyes.
They hated him and feared him, but they had to bow before him.
Wasn't it the same with his little girl many years ago?
Ming Lanruo did not avoid his fingers this time, she only raised her head and looked at him deeply, and suddenly said: "Do you really want me to hate you?"
Otherwise, why did you say those words?
Cang Qiao was startled, but he didn't expect her to kick the ball back to him.
"What I like is the Cang Qiao who is partial to me now. No matter what the world is like, Cang Qiao will always be partial to me and only stand behind me. When one day you no longer favor me and stand behind me, tell me,
I will hate you, but not now."
Ming Lanruo said slowly, imitating his example, reaching out to pull back the hem of his clothes that she had torn.
Her man's body should not be shown to others, and she must abide by her husband's ethics.
Even though he is still a eunuch.
Cang Qiao looked at her, feeling deep in his heart. He couldn't help but burst into laughter. He suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely, taking away all the breath from her.
After a while, he let go of her lips, his high nose pressed against the mask on her forehead, and he chuckled hoarsely: "My dear lady, you really make my family fall in love with you."
His little girl, when she really grows up, will make him happy.
How could he not be partial to her? This was the small firework and hope he had seen since childhood.
Ming Lanruo's face turned red when he kissed her. She rubbed the fluid from the corners of her lips with the back of her hand and hummed softly: "Can you talk properly now?"
As soon as he asked about the hunting ground outside, he suddenly became the cold and stinging governor of the East Factory.
Cang Qiao took out a pair of exquisite thin black leather gloves and put them back on his slender pale hands: "When I first entered the Department of Ceremonies, I was the final winner of the hunting ground every year, which made His Majesty very happy.
.”
Ming Lanruo frowned slightly, was he the winner? Does it mean that he often played games of hunting and killing civilians to please the emperor?
Cang Qiao added lightly: "I forgot to mention that I am the prey inside."
Ming Lanruo was startled and looked at him in disbelief: "You..."
Is he the one being hunted?!
Cang Qiao said casually, as if telling a story: "Your Majesty and he are accompanied by two concubines who are from military generals' families. They are skilled with bows and horses and have fast arrows. But I am faster than them and can capture them every time."
Arrows shot."
A magnetic and playful voice suddenly sounded outside the cage.
"In the name of showing off his skills, our lord has blocked countless arrows that were shot at the slaves and civilians who were thrown in as prey, and also made His Majesty the Emperor and his beloved concubine happy. He is a capable man.
"
At the same time, a whip reached out from outside the cage and was about to open the silk curtain——
"In the end, the emperor felt bored after playing for a long time and was afraid that others would find out. So he ordered people to withdraw from the hunting ground. It was the prince who took the initiative to start it this year. Girls, please don't misunderstand our lord."
Cang Qiao raised her eyebrows lightly: "Yinhu, you don't want your claws anymore."
The whip stiffened and retracted again. The silver fox outside the curtain regretted not seeing the beautiful slave girl inside. Hey, I don't know what beauty made that man's heart flutter.
He said with a playful smile: "Tsk, it's rare for an adult to fall in love with a girl, so how can people misunderstand you? Isn't this a kind explanation? After all, you saved me in the hunting ground back then, and you didn't even want to give me your life.
.”
The girl who was sold as a slave must definitely hate the rich and powerful who don't treat people as human beings. This man looked so arrogant and didn't bother to explain, how could he win over the girl's heart?
Cang Qiao narrowed her eyes dangerously: "Get out!"
Silver Fox muttered: "You don't know a good heart! You deserve to be a eunuch!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a strong gust of wind came towards him. He immediately ducked to avoid it, but he was still hit hard in the face!
He wailed in pain and burst into tears. He covered his swollen mouth and ran away in embarrassment.
Tsk, why do you keep getting slapped in the face today? Damn!
Cang Qiao snorted coldly and was about to turn around when suddenly a pair of slender arms wrapped around his slim waist.
"If you work hard, God will not let you down. If you work hard and endure hardships, three thousand Yuejia can swallow Wu. I believe that one day, you will no longer have to work hard, and everyone you want to protect in this world will be at peace."
Her soft and cold voice sounded slowly behind him.
The world has never treated him kindly. He was born noble but lives in a lowly position.
But in the darkness, he held a sword as a lamp to illuminate the path forward for the lowly people in the darkness.
