Cang Qiao glanced at the people around him with cold eyes, and the palace people around him were trembling in fear, pretending that they had not heard anything.
Concubine Xian was originally in charge of the affairs of the Sixth Palace in place of the Empress. She originally wanted to take over the Emperor's duties, but when she saw Jiu Qiansui standing there with a sinister look on her face, she did not dare to come over.
Cang Qiao was too lazy to pay attention to her, and finally his eyes fell on Liu Zhaoyi, and said expressionlessly: "Liu Zhaoyi, I remember that His Majesty said he was going to your place tonight, but you haven't come to help His Majesty back. What are you doing standing there in a daze?"
If he remembered correctly, this woman should have been someone put in by the young empress, and she was very popular with Emperor Ming.
Liu Zhaoyi immediately stood up in a panic, brought her maid and palace maid over to salute cautiously: "Yes..."
She didn’t dare to say no!
A group of people immediately served the emperor and left.
Cang Qiao turned around, took the handkerchief, and wiped the fingers that she had just supported the emperor bit by bit.
He watched the beauties dancing at the banquet, the guests changing glasses, hugging the beauty from time to time and laughing, and suddenly he felt bored and disgusted.
He threw the handkerchief on the table casually and coldly told Eunuch He: "Lao He, you stay here with the Concubine Xian. I'm leaving now."
After that, he led the people away and everyone stood up, saluted and sent him off respectfully.
Chu Yuanbai, the king of Xiaojingnan who was sitting in the clan banquet not far away, suddenly asked the people around him: "Is that the legendary Governor of Dongchang who is inferior to one person but superior to ten thousand people?"
"Exactly." The man whispered.
Chu Yuanbai touched his chin and laughed while drinking: "He is more beautiful than a woman, and his aura is quite scary. Those ministers are more respectful to him than to the emperor."
"Young prince, please don't talk nonsense. Dongchang's eyes and ears are everywhere. This is the capital city, not the Jingnan Palace and the Miao Territory!"
The man broke out in a cold sweat and quickly held down his arm.
Chu Yuanbai held his chin, and the delicate indigo vine tattoo on his cheek made his handsome and deep eyebrows look a little wandering: "Okay, I understand."
The prince asked him to put some poison on Jiu Qiansui, so that he would lose his skin even if he died, but he saw that that person was not easy to deal with... although he was very upset.
But if this goes wrong, who will take the blame?
…
Mid-Autumn Festival full moon
Sister Hong, Wei Ye and others also arrived from Northeastern Xinjiang. Concubine Ming's mansion was bustling with banquets in the courtyard.
For some of the hosts and servants, the dishes are all the same.
Ming Lanruo was wearing a simple, homely moon-white dress, with her long hair tied casually on top of her head, only tied into a ponytail. She toasted a round of fruit wine next to the table, and was in high spirits. She also learned to punch and mingled with everyone.
Xiao Xi followed her. Because he was cute and had a sweet mouth, everyone came to tease him and he got a lot of Mid-Autumn Festival gifts.
Jing Ming even held the flask and competed with others for drinks all the way. Chen Ning didn't look good and followed her behind to block the drink.
Wei Ye started to make noises from behind, and the two almost came to blows.
Looking at this scene, Sister Hong couldn't help but sigh: "I suddenly felt as if... I went back more than 20 years ago, when we were celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival in the military camp. Several major generals and others had a drinking party, and Miss Yueniang pulled
While Miss Guanyin was secretly drinking fruit wine... Xiao Shuai saw it and scolded her."
Grandma Wang looked complicated and sighing, and she only looked at Ming Lanruo from a distance: "Miss... Although her surname is Ming, she is completely like the Xiao family."
It was a seed that the Xiao family and Ming Guogong worked hard to save. Now it is growing toward the sun and has grown into the most beautiful thing, beyond their imagination.
Sister Hong toasted Grandma Wang with a glass of wine: "Mrs. Wang, you have worked hard these years."
Grandma Wang bent her eyes, but her old face was shining brightly. She also took a glass of wine: "No one has called me that for many years."
Sister Hong smiled: "Who can forget you as the number one quartermaster? Back then, you were no match for Red Blood's grain and grass logistics. Even Xiao Shuai wanted to call you Madam Wang."
Military rations and logistics are one of the most important things to ensure the victory of the army. Grandma Wang could do the rations and weapons that others could not raise back then!
The two old sisters looked at each other and smiled, with tears in their eyes, and raised their glasses together: "This is a toast to the past, more than twenty years ago, and to you I am still alive!"
The banquet didn't break up until late at night.
Ming Lanruo staggered to Chunhe's help and went to the room, holding in her hand a fat baby who was a little dazed from secretly drinking fruit wine.
After entering the room, Chun He and the maids helped Ming Lanruo sit down, then carried Xiao Xi to the bed and ordered: "Go and prepare some warm water and sobering soup."
The maids immediately responded and soon brought in hot water and sobering soup.
Chunhe was planning to serve Ming Lanruo some sobering soup.
Suddenly, a tall, dark figure appeared in front of his eyes.
She was terrified, and was about to take action when she heard the other party say lightly: "It's me."
Chunhe was stunned and immediately saluted: "Supervisor."
She didn't know why, but she felt that the governor was not in a good mood and his aura was a bit cold.
Cang Qiao was still wearing an official uniform. When he saw the big one and the small one lying on the table, he raised his eyebrows slightly: "Drink too much?"
Chunhe nodded: "During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Miss had a few more drinks."
"Ha, you're such a bad drinker, you still want to drink." He sneered and motioned to Chunhe: "Take the little thing away, I have something to say to the eldest lady of your family."
Chunhe hesitated for a moment, then picked up Xiaoxi and left.
The eldest lady seemed to have said that she would invite the governor over today.
Cang Qiao sat next to her, looking at Ming Lanruo like a drunk cat, reaching out to hug her into his arms, lowering his head to smell the faint fragrance of wine on her cheeks, and hummed softly: "It stinks."
As he said that, he lowered his head and bit her soft lips politely: "Wash it clean."
Ming Lanruo was bitten, and she opened her eyes to look at him in confusion, and suddenly smiled: "Ah Qiao, you are finally here?"
Cang Qiao's originally cold expression improved a lot, and he raised his eyebrows: "What, you are waiting for me, do you miss me?"
This realization made him feel calmer.
Ming Lanruo lay lazily on his chest. She was a little dizzy after drinking too much wine: "Well, I'll wait for you. I miss you."
Cang Qiao gently stroked her cheek with a half-smile: "What are you thinking about, but...in your heart?"
As he spoke, his fingertips slid down and poked her heart.
Ming Lanruo snorted softly, held his hand, and said softly: "If you poke me again, I will spit all over you. I have... uh... something serious to say."
Cang Qiao looked at the bewildered little woman in his arms and raised his eyebrows: "Are you talking about business like this?"
The moonlight fell in from the window and shone on Cang Qiao, making his face more cold and jade-like and his eyes deep and dark.
"Yes...hey..." Ming Lanruo bent her clear eyes and smiled, suddenly reaching out to hold his face: "Ah Qiao, you are so beautiful."
Cang Qiao narrowed her phoenix eyes. For some reason, the nausea that Emperor Ming used to pull her to say she was good-looking suddenly disappeared.
He looked at her and suddenly smiled: "Well, will the little lady dote on me?"
