Ming Lanruo frowned slightly: "Why are they here together? I'll go and see first."
Cang Qiao didn't look nervous at all, she just smiled and said, "Go ahead."
Watching Ming Lanruo lead Chunming away, Cang Qiao suddenly called out lightly: "Xinsu."
A nimble figure immediately jumped out of the window and clasped his fists at Cang Qiao: "Master."
Cang Qiao said calmly: "Go and call Lao He over. Don't make a big show of it. Come here secretly."
"Yes, Lord Governor." Xinsu clasped his fists, pointed his toes, instantly jumped onto the roof, and left quietly.
Cang Qiao then sat at the table, looked at his appearance in the dressing mirror slowly, and ordered the little eunuch who was following him——
"Let the hidden scholar in the East Campus find his own way back to the East Campus. Don't disturb Xiao Xi, and then call Chun He over."
"Yes, Lord Governor." The young eunuch saluted respectfully.
A quarter of an hour later, a young scholar wearing a plain white muslin robe, with slender eyebrows and elegant eyes, and a very elegant appearance stepped out of the concierge.
When Chun He heard that Cang Qiao was calling her, she hurried back and bumped into him. She couldn't help but be startled: "Scholar Yin, why are you here?"
The young scholar raised his eyebrows slightly: "Chunhe."
The voice was Cang Qiao's cool and unpredictable voice.
Chunhe was stunned, his expression changed unpredictably, and many thoughts ran through his mind. After a while, he said dryly: "Master Qiantose..."
Although the eldest lady had already told her when she came back that the hidden scholar was Chitose Master in the beginning.
But she was still shocked to see the hidden scholar speaking in the voice of Lord Chitose with her own eyes.
Scholar Yin smiled, and when he spoke again, his voice became clear and soft, familiar to everyone in Concubine Ming's house: "Where can I see His Highness King Qin and the others?"
Chunhe's expression was a little strange and uneasy: "Are you...going to go too?"
What does this man want to do?
Scholar Yin held the fan, tapped the palm of his hand, and smiled gently: "His Royal Highness King Qin and His Highness King Jingnan are with the little empress. I'm worried. Why, the little empress won't let me go?"
Chunhe: "Of course not...you...come with me."
Chunhe turned around and silently led the way.
The hidden scholar suddenly said calmly: "Miss Chunhe, I am just a teacher in the house. Maybe I will be the master and counselor next to the young empress in the future. You don't have to be so cautious."
Chunhe stiffened and smiled dryly: "Yes."
Does this mean that Chitose wants to stay in the mansion for a long time?
It was over, she had to quickly tell others to keep their skin tight and not reveal their secrets in front of this terrible man.
…
The place used to receive Shangguan Hongye and others was a small waterside pavilion beside a water lily pond, with bamboo curtains on all sides to block the sun.
There is an occasional cool breeze, which is quite refreshing.
"This capital city is different. These fish in the pond are really fat. I wonder how they taste when roasted." Chu Yuanbai, the king of Xiaojingnan, was currently lying on the carved railing, throwing fish food into the pond with great interest.
Ming Lanruo paused while holding the tea and glanced at Shangguan Hongye: "Does Your Highness also want to eat the koi in it?"
Shangguan Hongye seemed to feel that the guest he had brought was a bit embarrassing. He coughed lightly and walked to Chu Yuanbai: "Little prince, this thing is not for eating."
Chu Yuanbai turned around and jumped down. He smiled at Ming Lanruo and said, "Don't be offended, Concubine Ming. Xiao Wang's place is in a remote countryside, and there is no pond for fat fish in the palace. The fish in our place are so fat.
It’s roasted and eaten.”
As soon as he moved around, the silver ornaments stacked on his waist jingled, and he looked very exotic when paired with an indigo robe with a Miao style.
Ming Lanruo looked at Chu Yuanbai, waved the lady's fan in her hand, and smiled slightly: "The young prince is joking. The three provinces in the southwest are full of outstanding people and natural simplicity, so they can breed such interesting characters as the young prince."
She had been here for two-quarters of an hour, but this young prince Chu seemed to be interesting to her.
Chu Yuanbai has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a handsome face, a silver crescent moon ornament between his eyebrows, and turquoise earrings on his ears. He does not look girly, but looks unruly and youthful.
There are actually princes with this style - unlike the princes who enfeoffed the territory or the officials who enfeoffed the territory.
Rather, he looks like a young and dissolute young village leader from a large village in Miao territory.
When Chu Yuanbai heard this, he suddenly walked over with a smile and sat down next to Ming Lanruo: "Does Concubine Ming also think I am interesting?"
He was not close to her, but the distance between their bodies was only half a finger.
Her clothes were thin in summer, and she could even feel the slight roughness of his braided hair rubbing against her skin.
But this obviously frivolous behavior only gave off a pleasant feeling when Chu Yuanbai did it.
But Ming Lanruo knew that the moment his braids brushed against her skin, something gently climbed onto her clothes.
Ming Lanruo paused and his eyes flashed slightly. It seemed that this young prince was also a master of poison.
Ming Lanruo just raised her fan and gently blocked it between the two of them. She leaned back with a smile and said, "My young prince, in the capital, fun also requires propriety and rules. You have to sit farther away from me."
However, she adjusted her inner breath slightly, controlled the Gu King's instinct to fight back, and instead allowed the thing to get into her clothes.
Ming Lanruo's unkind words only made Chu Yuanbai pause.
He was not angry at all, he simply stood up and moved a little before sitting down: "It's Xiao Wang who took the liberty. He just saw that Concubine Ming was beautiful and kind, and she looked very much like my elder sister who died young, so I wanted to get closer!
"
Shangguan Hongye looked at Chu Yuanbai and sat down closely next to Ming Lanruo. He was already a bit unhappy and was about to pull away from him, but saw Minglan reprimanding the person a bit brusquely.
He was in a better mood: "King Xiao Jingnan is only nineteen years old this year. I heard he doesn't even have a concubine yet. He is younger and has just come to the capital from the border, so he is inevitably a bit lively."
Chu Yuanbai is only nineteen years old?
Ming Lanruo looked at Chu Yuanbai, shook her fan and smiled faintly: "You are really young. He is not yet in his prime, but he is still a young man."
He was two years younger than her, inherited the palace, and even set a trap in the Miao border to capture Agu. He was indeed no simple person.
Chu Yuanbai looked Ming Lanruo up and down, and suddenly asked with a smile: "In Xiao Wang's family, there is only one sister among the brothers, but there is no elder sister. Today, seeing Concubine Ming being so kind and frank, can I call you elder sister?"
Ming Lanruo paused while waving the fan and smiled, but she looked at Shangguan Hongye——
"Your Majesty brought Young Prince Chu here today for no other reason than to recognize my relatives. Didn't I remember that my father gave birth to a younger brother?"
This is a clear rejection.
Shangguan Hongye was a little embarrassed. It was his father who asked him to entertain the young prince Chu these two days.
Chu Yuanbai, the king of Xiaojingnan, has a familiar temperament, lively and cheerful, and not annoying.
I just treat foreign vassals as normal.
Chu Yuanbai said that he wanted to meet Wang's wife, but he couldn't bring a concubine to entertain King Xiao Jingnan in the mansion, so he had to bring him to Ming Lanruo, his equal wife.
By the way, I also want to meet Ming Lanruo.
But, what does this Chu Yuanbai want to do?
Ming Lanruo also wanted to know what Chu Yuanbai wanted to do.
While this man was poisoning her, he called her sister with a smile on his face without changing his expression.
