He looked at the girl in front of him with lively and angry features, her neck and arms still had marks left by herself, and the tip of her tongue touched her back molar.
Even now, he still likes that she has his mark all over her body, and he also likes the mark she gave him.
Ming Lanruo didn't know that his mind was full of rubbish, so she turned around and stared at him coldly.
But the anger in my heart dissipated a lot.
His temperament was cold and aloof, but he was willing to explain to her. After all, he lowered his attitude.
What's more, after all, she... was reluctant to let him go, and she felt sorry for him.
"I'm so thin, I don't know how to eat more, my hands ache even when I touch him!" Ming Lanruo patted his chest gloomily.
He has always had a strong physique, but this time the muscles in his chest were a little thinner, making him look like a young boy who had just sprouted, and his hip bones were obvious.
Shangguan Yanqiao held her wrist, lowered his head and rested his chin lazily on her shoulder: "Did your legs hurt last night?"
The little woman in her arms is slim but not a skinny girl. She is soft and pliable, and she does not lack any plumpness.
As he said that, he patted her butt: "So last night, for your sake, I chose to do it from behind..."
Ming Lanruo covered his mouth in embarrassment: "Can you shut up?! Why do you always think about that kind of thing?"
Shangguan Yanqiao looked down at her with a pair of eerie and narrow eyes, and couldn't help but laugh: "Tsk..."
He just liked her energetic look.
He held her hand and slowly pushed some of her long, thin braids behind her ears.
"If a man has desire for a woman, he may not necessarily love her. He may be interested in her body. But if he has no desire for a woman, he must not love her."
Ming Lanruo was stunned and looked at the man in front of her.
She didn't know why, but she always felt that he was much less depressed and distorted now.
According to the past, he would have sex whenever he wanted, so he would not talk to her so much, let alone talk about whether he loved her or not.
Even though he had done so much for her and changed so much in his past life and this life, he had already shown with his actions that he was indispensable to her.
This was the first time she heard him say the word love.
Although it is related to desire, women will always automatically choose the words they like to hear.
Ming Lanruo was a little at a loss. She turned away from her red face and poked his chest with a groan: "You understand quite well. Which storybook did you read it from?"
If she didn't know, before her, he was a real kid who didn't even know what self-blasphemy was.
Otherwise, looking at how smoothly he speaks, he looks like a veteran in the field of love.
Shangguan Yanqiao's eyes were deep, and he kissed her palm with a smile: "Everything I learned is to serve the saint, isn't it?"
Ming Lanruo pursed her lips, then suddenly withdrew her hand and opened her arms to hug him: "Then shut up and let the saint hold her. Don't ruin the atmosphere."
She buried her face into his chest: "..."
Her heart finally returned to the stability and peace of mind in her chest. She was fond of this feeling.
He gently stroked Ming Lanruo's back, and the two hugged quietly for a long time.
Until Ming Lanruo’s belly——“Gulu”
Make a hungry sound.
She froze for a moment, and amidst his muffled laughter, she rolled her eyes at him and sat at the table: "The saint wants to eat, but you still won't serve her!"
Shangguan Yanqiao sat down with a smile and took the food box he brought: "Eat."
Ming Lanruo looked at it and was stunned for a moment: "Are you making pothos golden cakes again?"
In the food box is a plate of exquisite green radish golden cakes, with a fragrant aroma.
"That's right, do you like it? My uncle made this to apologize to my Ruoruo for making her worry." He smiled warmly and took out the rose plum soup and cake.
Her expression was a little complicated. She sat down and said softly: "I like it."
In the past, it was an affair between lovers, but this time it was an apology and tacit understanding between relatives.
"Eat some if you like?" Shangguan Yanqiao touched her head.
Ming Lanruo took the cake and took a bite of the rose plum soup. The familiar taste made her heart feel sweet.
She smiled at him: "Yeah."
"This time you suddenly traveled thousands of miles to come to the Miao border. It should not only be for me, but also for Shangguan Hongye. He is constantly adding troops to the borders of the three provinces this time. Aren't you worried about the war in the northwest?"
She finished eating two delicate pothos golden cakes and asked while eating.
Shangguan Yanqiao smiled faintly: "Because the war in the northwest is now at a stalemate, his men can't advance, and my men have withstood his attack, so he wants to-"
"In order to deal with the outside world, we must first make peace with the inside." Ming Lanruo took the words.
Shangguan Hongye originally planned to join forces with Long Tiao to get her, and then suppressed Chu Yuanbai.
"Long Tiao actually doesn't love Xiaobai, his only grandson, much at all. If I guess correctly, he just wants Xiaobai to be his puppet to control the three southwestern provinces."
Ming Lanruo sighed, Xiaobai was also a poor child.
Under Long Wei's guidance, at least she didn't grow crooked at all. The reason why she was so mean to her in the first place was for Miao Jiang.
This is probably thanks to the old King Jingnan.
"Why, feel bad?" Shangguan Yanqiao raised his eyebrows.
Ming Lanruo: "No, just stating a fact."
He snorted softly: "Listen to my uncle, don't play with children who don't have enough hair to cover their eyes."
Ming Lanruo: "Oh..."
Using his status as an elder to put pressure on her and not allowing her to play with anyone, he is the three-year-old child, right?
But she didn't say this, she just coughed lightly: "Let's get back to the topic, now that Long Tiao is dead, what is the purpose of Shangguan Hongye continuing to increase his troops?"
"What else could it be? Since the internal and external collusion route doesn't work, he is now directly planning to cut down the vassal and force Chu Yuanbai to hand you over." Shangguan Yanqiao sneered.
Ming Lanruo frowned slightly: "I don't think I can be this important to him."
Shangguan Hongye is not a master who wants beauty rather than power.
"Excuse, he needs an excuse to cut down his feudal vassal." He picked up a cup of rose plum soup and took a sip.
"Secondly, if I catch you, I can force Duke Ming to submit. I can then take the opportunity to eliminate the remnants of Jiu Qian Sui's gang in the capital, and then we can see whether Jiu Qian Sui is dead or alive."
Ming Lanruo took the words and said thoughtfully: "If Nine Thousand Years Old is still alive, I will still be a good hostage."
"In addition, you asked Envoy Ji to let Zhou Tongchen cause the murder of the Xiao family in the court. He also needs you, a descendant of the Xiao family, to return to him."
"He tried his best to prove that he is different from Emperor Ming. He treats the descendants of the Xiao family well, and even makes you the queen. What's more - compensation, in order to stop the people in the world from talking."
Shangguan Yanqiao said calmly.
Such a good thing could be achieved with one stone, so his cousin would naturally spare no effort to bring Ruoruo back to him.
