Ming Lanruo stared at him with a strange expression and asked, "Where is Jinghe?"
This man...why does it suddenly make people think that he is disguised and has an incredible ability to manipulate people's hearts?
After a while, people feel that he is full of flaws? He is so casual, so he is not afraid of showing his flaws in front of him?
Ming Lanruo didn't know that Cang Qiao's ability to disguise himself as a detective would not work properly in front of her, and he would always reveal his true nature in front of her unconsciously.
Of course, Cang Qiao himself didn't know that he was full of flaws in front of his little empress.
Ming Lanruo's expression made Xiaoyanzi squint her eyes, as if she had misunderstood her thoughts: "Jinghe went to prepare supper for my sister. Does my sister think that I am not as good at serving Jinghe? I have also served her in the palace."
For girls.”
In the carriage, Jinghe was always waiting for her to wipe her body.
Ming Lanruo raised her eyebrows slightly: "You can call me sister pretty smoothly."
He kept calling "sister" without any psychological burden...
Who would have thought that behind this fair face and the thin body of a young man is the powerful and powerful Admiral of Dongchang Palm Seal?
Xiao Yanzi looked innocent and calm: "We are about to enter the territory of Heilia City, so we have to be cautious. Once you get used to the new name, you can avoid showing off your mistakes, right?"
Ming Lanruo was silent for a while and then said: "Thank you, you can go out and I can wash it myself."
She couldn't even take off her clothes and take a shower in front of Cang Qiao, not to mention that he had a completely different face, and even his voice had changed, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.
Homura rolled her eyes slightly and said seriously: "How about I wait for my sister outside the screen? I just went to interrogate the fat man and there is some interesting news."
Upon hearing this, Ming Lanruo only hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay."
There shouldn't be anything behind the screen. They have already done very intimate things... although they haven't reached the final step yet.
She moved behind the screen, began to take off her clothes, and hung her robes one by one on the screen.
Looking at the bucket full of hot water, she tapped the water with her white toes, tested the water temperature, and stepped into the tub.
The warm hot water flooded her soft skin, and she sighed contentedly. She sat on the edge of the basin and closed her eyes to enjoy the long-lost comfort.
"I haven't taken a bath for a long time...it's really refreshing."
"As long as it's comfortable." Homurako's smiling and gentle voice came from outside the screen.
Ming Lanruo asked lazily: "The fat man, what did you find out during the trial? Who did he send into the mountains?"
Xiao Yanzi said: "He is the second son of the magistrate of Heilia City, but he was born as a concubine. This time he is sending a group of people into the mountains to mine."
"Going into the mountains to mine, what kind of mine?" Ming Lanruo suddenly opened his eyes. Changbai Mountain is rich in mineral resources, but mining requires royal authorization.
"Iron mine, but it has not been reported to the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs." Xiao Yanzi's voice came through the screen, faint and faint.
Hearing this, Ming Lanruo suddenly couldn't help but chuckle: "Ah, that's really interesting."
Privately opening iron mines? Is it training weapons for rebellion or smuggling?
Throughout the dynasties, the imperial court had a monopoly on salt, iron, and copper to prevent rebellion, and opening private mines would punish the three tribes!
There was a sudden movement in her heart, and with a "crash" sound, she almost sat up from the bucket: "Is my father..."
A pair of slightly cool and slender hands suddenly pressed on her snow-white bare shoulders, preventing her from getting out of the hot water: "It's cold, don't come out, be careful not to catch a cold."
Ming Lanruo's delicate body stiffened slightly, and she didn't even notice that he appeared behind her.
"Why did you come in..." She felt a little uncomfortable and frowned.
However, Xiao Yanzi took the handkerchief, dipped it in jasmine oil, and slowly rubbed her shoulders and neck: "I suspect that Duke Ming might have discovered the private mining operation of Heiliao Prefecture during disaster relief, and that's why he disappeared."
Ming Lanruo's attention was suddenly drawn to the business, and she couldn't help biting her lip in worry: "Looking at the way that Prefect Hei Liao is covering the sky with his hands and full of gangsterism, father...can father still be alive?
?”
She originally thought that her father would fall into the hands of the prince's faction, imprisoned by the prince, and have his legs amputated, as he did in his previous life, but at least he still had life.
But if my father had found out about Heiliao Prefecture's "opening private mines and making weapons", I'm afraid he would not have died!
She was too careless. She only wanted to ask Shangguan Hongye to send people to protect her father. She should have come to Northeast Xinjiang herself at that time!!
Ming Lanruo felt extremely uncomfortable for a moment, her eyes turned red and her body began to feel stiff.
Seeing this, Xiao Yanzi suddenly raised her hand and touched jasmine oil with her fingertips, slowly massaged her temples, and said leisurely——
"Relax! Although the prefect of Hei Liao acted arbitrarily and blocked the sky with one hand, Duke Ming was a high official in the imperial court. Once he died, it would definitely attract the attention of the entire imperial court.
Dongchang will also investigate to the end. They imprisoned Duke Ming, but they may not dare to take action against him, otherwise the news of his death would have come out now." This chapter has been completed!
