As he spoke, Cang Qiao put on his gloves and stretched his arms out of the window.
The flying eagle fluttered and grabbed his hand.
Cang Qiao took off the secret mailbox from the eagle's leg and flicked the eagle casually. The eagle flew up to Xiao Qi Zi's gauntleted arm and let Xiao Qi Zi feed him some meat.
He opened the letter and looked at the contents with a strange expression.
Ming Lanruo tried her best to push his long legs away, sat up, and while arranging her hair, she said angrily: "Why are you pressing me to read the news? Are you going to take a few bites after reading it?"
This person is so annoying, do you think of her as a cookie to relieve your fatigue?
She was riding horses with Jing Ming outside, but this man suddenly opened the car curtain and asked her to come in with an uncomfortable look on his face.
She thought something was wrong and planned to go up to check his pulse, but when she got in the car, he held her down and bit her.
The reason is that he is tired of reading the book and wants to take a rest and eat something!
Listen, is this human talk?
Cang Qiao raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand to pull her back into his arms with a half-smile, and lazily rested his chin on her shoulder: "What, Ruoruo, do you think you think I didn't do anything to you?"
Ming Lanruo squinted slightly, tried hard to control her blush, and said angrily: "Master Governor, can you be more serious? You are talking about business!"
Xiaobai is the name of the flying eagle just now. The messenger eagle is not as easy to train as the flying pigeon, but the eagle flies fast, so Dongchang can let the eagle fly to send the message. It must be something important.
Cang Qiao said calmly: "It's nothing, it's just that the Xu family has made an engagement to Miss Xu."
Ming Lanruo was stunned for a moment: "What, Xiuyi is engaged?! How so soon? And what does this matter have to do with Dongchang?"
She was not surprised that Feiyan was engaged, but Xu Xiuyi had never wanted to get married.
The Xu family also wanted to keep her for two more years, so why did they suddenly get engaged so quickly?
Ming Lanruo suddenly narrowed her eyes: "Did someone use some means on Xiu Yi to force her to get married?"
Cang Qiao paused, clucked lightly, and handed the letter to her: "You are quite smart. His Highness the Crown Prince fell in love with her and planned to make her his next Crown Princess, but it seems that he failed."
Ming Lanruo quickly read the news in the letter, a little unbelievable: "So, now she plans to get engaged to Yinhu?"
She remembered that silver fox, it seemed...it seemed like an exotic man who had been following Cang Qiao in the black market?
Cang Qiao lazily put his hands on his bent long legs and leaned on the soft pillow: "Well, this guy is quite good at taking advantage of Dongchang's influence. It makes the Xu family owe him such a favor, and he got three requests in vain.
.”
He gave the Dongchang manpower to Yinhu because there were "worms" in the Dongchang and Jinyiwei, so he asked Yinhu, a non-staff person, to help keep an eye on the Prince's Mansion and Prince Qin's Mansion.
But this man actually used people to seduce little girls.
Ming Lanruo frowned tightly: "I saw in the letter that it was just a stopgap measure. Xiuyi would not really get engaged to him. Even if it was a stopgap measure, Yinhu's status as a businessman is also low. I'm afraid that the prince will not give up.
.”
In addition, that night in public, so many people saw how Silver Fox "rescued" Xu Xiuyi, I was afraid that Xu Xiuyi would become a laughing stock in the circle of ladies in the capital.
"If you can't get someone like the prince, you would rather destroy him. Xiuyi and the Xu family may think too simplistically."
Minglan said thoughtfully, she had been with the prince for so many years in her previous life, and had done many things in this life, so she knew how vicious the prince was.
"Destroy? If the prince kills Xu Xiuyi, what good will he gain? He is completely an enemy of the Xu family. He is not that stupid." Cang Qiao took the wet handkerchief and began to wipe his fingers slowly.
Minglan shook her head: "The destruction I'm talking about is not that he wants to kill Xiuyi, but that since he can't let Xu Xiuyi be the main concubine, then he can make her a side concubine or even a concubine."
For the legitimate daughter of a high-ranking family, being a concubine is the real abuse, and it is better to recruit a wife.
The prince is not a fool. His purpose is just to tie the Xu family onto the ship, so he just needs to hold onto Xu Xiuyi.
With Xu Xiuyi's temperament, if she was forced to be a concubine, she would be willing to hang herself in order to save the Xu family.
Cang Qiao casually pinched the grapes on the side and began to peel them: "So, do you think that even if Xu Xiuyi is engaged to Yinhu, there will be no way to stop the prince from taking action against her."
Ming Lanruo sighed: "Yes."
She hadn't returned to the capital for a long time, and she really missed her Xiao Xi'er.
Even if Chunhe often sends her news about Xiao Xier, what mother doesn't want to hold her child in her arms?
It's just that once I return to the capital, I have to deal with a lot of things, which makes me upset.
Cang Qiao fed the peeled grapes to her lips and said leisurely: "I will let Silver Fox protect Xu Xiuyi well. If he is unable to protect Xu Xiuyi and something happens to Xu Xiuyi and the prince, he will be sent away.
If he marries the Xu family, it should be regarded as the price for being disadvantaged in protecting his family."
Ming Lanruo opened her mouth and ate the grapes. It was so sweet that she couldn't help but curl her eyes: "How can I be a master like you and sell my subordinates so neatly?"
When the Lord Governor is not acting as a monster, he always takes care of her in all aspects. He can tell when she is cold, hot, or hungry by watching her handle things...
All kinds of careful and considerate, knowing both cold and hot, make you feel like a princess held in the palm of his hand.
No, it should be said - the emperor.
Cang Qiao pressed the corner of her lips with the handkerchief and said calmly: "He is not completely my subordinate, he is half a brother."
Ming Lanruo: "..."
So, good guy, are brothers just for selling?
Cang Qiao peeled the grapes and put them in a glass cup. She sneered faintly: "If Xu Xiuyi really doesn't want to get married, she can team up with Yinhu and get married, completely cutting off the crown prince's thoughts. She will find another reason in a few years."
It’s the union and separation.”
What is an engagement?
His eyes were a little dark, and he pinched two more grapes and stuffed them into Ming Lanruo's mouth.
Look, he tried every means to get this girl into Prince Mou's Mansion, but in the end, she was forcibly taken away by a wild dog.
Ming Lanruo's mouth was full and she quickly held his wrist: "Slow down, slow down."
Why is this person here again? He keeps stuffing food into her when he gets angry.
Cang Qiao narrowed her eyes and hummed: "That's not what you said that night seven or eight days ago. You told me to hurry up."
Ming Lanruo reached out and covered his mouth: "...Do you have to talk about such dirty talk when you have to talk about serious business?"
Why is this guy still acting like a brat?
Cang Qiao pulled down her slender hand and clasped it in his palm, with cold eyes and a sneer on his face: "I don't want to talk to you about these dirty things. You have been sleeping in the same room with Jing Ming every day for the past seven or eight days, and you are not willing to sleep with me."
I'm riding in the carriage together, why are you afraid that your husband, Prince Qin, will find out that you are mine?"
He didn't look uncomfortable today, but she refused to get into his carriage, hahaha...
Ming Lanruo snorted: "What did you do that you don't know about?"
Seven or eight days ago, they stayed at an inn on the road.
Cang Qiao came to look for her at night. He promised her to cultivate her moral character along the way, strive to strengthen her roots and cultivate her strength, and raise the young seedlings in a stable manner.
In addition, Shangguan Hongye and the others are still following you, so don't always think about messing around.
Therefore, that night, he originally just hugged her, kissed her, covered her with a thin quilt, and just chatted, which was quite sweet and warm.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Hongye knocked on the door and said he had brought her a midnight snack.
Originally this was nothing, but she refused to say she wasn't hungry, didn't open the door, and sent him away, that was the end of it.
But that guy Shangguan Hongye said some stupid things outside the door, about consummating the marriage after returning to Beijing, maybe they can get along with each other... and you will know his benefits if you try.
He also told her to tell Cang Qiao about everything else, that eunuch who didn't understand the relationship between men and women.
To put it bluntly, that guy Shangguan Hongye wanted to spend the night in her room...
This stirred up a hornet's nest. She was so angry that Cang Qiao held her against the door on the spot. She committed evil and did a lot of nasty things.
She bit her lip and did not dare to make a sound. Shangguan Hongye still sensed that something was wrong and kept knocking on the door.
She had to forcefully make up the excuse that she was really uncomfortable and that she didn't want to see anyone, so she got through it!
Cang Qiao was angry and went to fight with Shangguan Hongye, but why did he want to "fight" with her?
Afterwards, she unhappily ignored him for seven or eight days.
It had been seven or eight days since he tricked her into the car today, and she had almost calmed down. He pressed her down and kissed her while apologizing, and she accepted it.
"Be calm!" Ming Lanruo poked his chest.
"Calm down? How can you tell me to calm down? You were originally my wife, you followed the three etiquette rules, you fell into love with a jade plate, but you became his woman, and I became an adulterer?"
Cang Qiao sneered, a cold light flashing in her eyes.
"I didn't ask you to give him a bowl of medicine and drink it down. It would be nice to go to the west like Wu Dalang."
Ming Lanruo pinched a grape herself, peeled it like Cang Qiao, and said leisurely: "If you didn't scold yourself like this, you are not Ximen Qing."
This man was so angry that he thought he was being scolded by the high-ranking official Ximen in the script.
She looked at the pitted grapes that she had peeled with a little disgust. How come he peeled them like green pearls, but she peeled them so shabby?
Then, without changing her expression, she brought the meager grape to his thin lips to comfort the dog who was feeling irritated in her heart during the summer...
The grape juice dripped down her hand and onto the forehead of Rhubarb, which she stuffed into the space under the cushion with the cage. It rubbed its head with its paws dissatisfied——
Huh, the ungrateful dead witch, she got a new dog and forgot about her old one. Why don't you see her feeding it grapes!
Wait for it to find an opportunity to get out and scare her new stinky dog to death!
Hum hum hum——╭(╯^╰)╮
Cang Qiao seemed to be in a better mood, and she ate the ugly grapes she sent without disdain, and said coldly: "We will arrive in the capital in two days, stay away from that bastard Shangguan Hongye."
There was still grape juice in his hand, and he squeezed her hand, which was wet and sticky. He touched her palm with his fingertips in an arrogant manner, with unknown meaning...
Ming Lanruo withdrew her hand and wanted to wipe her hands with a handkerchief with some disgust: "I have recently developed a kind of Gu butterfly. Although it cannot directly kill people, it can turn people into parasite attractants."
Because Gu Butterfly does not directly kill people, or even directly hurt people, the backlash is much smaller, and it showed its talents in Gujiazhai.
Ming Lanruo's smile was a bit cold: "Do you think I should just plant attractants on Emperor Ming and his son, and let the insects eat them?"
Just let the bugs eat them and there wouldn't be so much trouble.
