Qiao Yan's heart trembled deeply when she saw this. He wanted to reach out and hug her, and whispered in her ear in a low voice: "Little Empress..."
Who would have thought that Ming Lanruo suddenly stepped away and said calmly: "Okay, let's have a meal. Eat early. We will start discussing the next step tonight. The army is about to attack the city. Time is running out."
Qiao Yan's hands were empty, and he suddenly felt a little lost. He looked at Ming Lanruo silently, but could not see her emotions.
Did she guess something? Or was he overly concerned?
He was guessing and calculating in his mind.
However, caring leads to chaos, and he has never been able to exert even three-thirds of his usual ability on this little empress.
Ming Lanruo, however, ate with him with a normal expression, as if she didn't notice anything.
Whether Qiao Yan or Cang Qiao, this meal was the most restless meal he had ever had in his life.
But Ming Lanruo spoke freely, without any abnormality.
After the meal, when she saw Qiao Yan carrying the basin for washing his hands, she stared at his uneasy back with slightly cold eyes.
In her previous life, she followed the path of a ruthless enchantress. Of course she knew what she looked like, what she could do to make a man reject her, and how to arouse a man's emotions.
But in his previous life, his heart was not right, and Lard took the wrong path. In this life, he hates this kind of method, but he never thought of using it on him.
Dare to pretend to be a hidden scholar who coaxed and lied to her? He also asked her to spend a lot of time worrying about that "honest" and "nerdy" guy. I wonder if he was very happy to see her being stupid?
Now is not the time. Let's wait until the matter here is settled and then settle the accounts later in the year.
Well, we serve you according to the family law!
Moreover, she has to think about what the family law will be in the future!
Qiao Yan suddenly turned around and saw Ming Lanruo drinking tea as usual.
He sighed silently, that's all, it doesn't matter whether she knows or not.
From now on, it's up to her to do whatever she wants with him, as long as the little girl doesn't neglect him.
...
After dinner, Wei Ye led people to bring a cart full of things with great fanfare and rewarded Qiao Ming, the confidant of the Tang Prefect who "saved" Master Gu Er.
It actually made the guards of the Tang Prefect who lived in this building very jealous.
Ming Lanruo asked Chen Ning to entertain everyone in the building to drink and gamble. When the banquet was halfway through, Chen Ning winked at Wei Ye.
Wei Ye led another middle-aged driver to leave the banquet separately, and then led Chen Ning into a room quietly.
"This is Uncle Xu Kai, my man." Wei Ye introduced the middle-aged man.
Ming Lanruo didn't ask too many questions, so if Wei Ye could bring it, he must be trustworthy.
Everyone began to divide up and carefully look at the terrain map to arrange tasks and discuss response strategies. Occasionally, everyone would argue in a very low voice.
The conversation lasted about an hour and a half before it was over.
Before Wei Ye left, he gave Ming Lanruo a burden: "You asked me to arrange for people to fetch the hair and personal belongings of all the village leaders and main talkers as soon as possible. They are all here."
Ming Lanruo took it and nodded.
Wei Ye was still a little confused: "Xiao Qiao, what do you want these things for?"
Ming Lanruo smiled: "I want to practice witchcraft and curse them to death. Please wait for me for an hour."
Wei Ye sighed: "Okay, if you don't want to tell me, I won't ask any more questions."
Maybe it's not convenient for him to know what Xiao Qiao wants to do.
Ming Lanruo shrugged, smiled and told the truth, no one believed her.
Wei Ye looked a little relaxed as he had been carrying a heavy load for a long time, but also had a serious look on his face. He handed her over and said, "No matter what, the success or failure of this time depends on this. Xiao Qiao, thank you!"
