Chapter 139: Confession and leniency
"General Shao?" Seeing Shao Mingyuan standing still at the door, the rain sliding down his cheeks, and his face seemed to be whiter, Qiao Zhao was a little puzzled. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Her gaze moved downward, fell on Shao Mingyuan's hand, carefully identified it, and was a little surprised: "Wild ginger?"
Wild ginger can be used as medicine, which has a relieving effect on cold pain in the waist and abdomen, uh, it can also invigorate blood and regulate menstruation.
Invigorate blood and regulate menstruation!
Qiao Zhao was stunned.
So what effect did Shao Mingyuan go out and pick a handful of wild ginger and come back?
Miss Qiao, who has always been indifferent, was in a complicated mood in an instant, staring at the person standing at the door with apricot-like eyes, and secretly thought: He shouldn't know about girls, right?
"Miss Li knows this?" After a short silence, Shao Mingyuan walked in with long legs, glanced at the boiling rice porridge in the pot, walked to the corner of the wall, bent down to scoop the wild ginger clean, and threw it into the pot.
Qiao Zhao subconsciously frowned: "It will taste very strange like this." β
"Well, but there are benefits to eating, Miss Li should bear with it. Shao Mingyuan stood beside the stove, and the water droplets fell on the firewood, making a loud sound.
Qiao Zhao moved to the side: "General Shao, bake your clothes." β
"Oh, thanks. Thinking that it was a good thing done by his subordinates, Shao Mingyuan lost his previous freedom, sat down silently, and pondered how to confess to others.
The sound of water droplets falling into the fire and being roasted dry was still silent, but the two people in front of the stove were silent.
Binglu felt that the atmosphere was a little strange, looked into the pot, and hesitated, "The rice porridge should be cooked, right?"
Shao Mingyuan came back to his senses and nodded: "Okay." β
He turned around and wanted to get the bowl, but Binglu hurriedly said, "General Shao, you can bake the fire, just come here." β
Binglu quickly filled two bowls of rice porridge, one bowl to Qiao Zhao, one bowl to Shao Mingyuan, and then a bowl for herself, holding the porridge bowl and saying: "Girl, General Shao, you bake the fire, the servant went to watch the two villains, lest they run away." β
Seeing that the little maid ran away, Qiao Zhao blinked.
Didn't those two unlucky hunters be knocked out by the ice green, what else to see?
Shao Mingyuan held the porridge bowl and opened his mouth: "Are those two hunters stunned by ice green?"
Qiao Zhao was slightly stunned, and then nodded: "Yes." After thinking about it, it didn't seem good for her personal maid to be so cruel, so she explained for Binglu: "She is worried that I will be in danger if those two people break free of the rope." β
"No, it won't. β
Qiao Zhao raised his head when he heard the sound and crashed into the other party's black and bright eyes.
"I'm a person who is tied up in a special way, and I won't break free. β
Qiao Zhao raised his lips and smiled: "I know." β
The dignified general of the Northern Expedition, the invincible champion Hou, if even two hunters could run under his hands, he would not be alive now.
Shao Mingyuan smiled.
He always thought that it would be difficult to deal with girls, but he didn't seem to have this problem when he communicated with Miss Li.
Staring at the jumping firelight for a while, Shao Mingyuan glanced at Qiao Zhao.
The girl's head was wrapped with strips of cloth, which seemed to have been torn off her clothes, and it had nothing to do with elegance, but her expression was calm and comfortable, and her side face was quiet and beautiful.
Shao Mingyuan secretly encouraged himself, and asked tentatively: "Miss Li, at that time I said that there were traces of vandalism in your carriage-"
Qiao Zhao's eyelashes trembled, and he waited quietly for him to continue.
Shao Mingyuan was a little embarrassed by her staring, and the words that he was about to confess turned into his mouth: "Do you know who did it?"
"Me?" Qiao Zhao shook his head as he gently stirred the fire with a burning stick, "I don't know." β
"If you knew...... What are you going to do?"
When Qiao Zhao heard this, he shook the burning stick in his hand, and smiled: "Then naturally he wants to look good, otherwise he will repay his grievances with virtue, how can he repay virtue?"
After speaking, Shao Mingyuan didn't respond, Qiao Zhao looked at him: "General Shao, did you say?"
People who have led the troops to fight for many years will not be soft-hearted, such questions still need to be asked.
"Huh. The young general chuckled dryly.
So if he confesses now, will Miss Li greet him with this burning stick?
Qiao Zhao's mind was sharp, and he quickly noticed that Shao Mingyuan, who had gone out once, seemed to be a little different from before, and he groaned for a moment and asked, "General Shao, do you know any clues?"
Otherwise, what did he mean by bringing it up again? It couldn't be to help her find that person and teach her a lesson about the murderer behind the scenes? Then he would be too zealous.
Is it?
Qiao Zhao suddenly thought of a possibility, and his face immediately sank.
This bastard, could it be that she is not cold in the bones, so she is attracted to other girls?
Glancing at Shao Mingyuan's white robe, which could no longer be seen in its original color, Qiao Zhao's heart was congested.
Although she is now Li Zhao and has nothing to do with it from now on, seeing that her ex-husband can't wait for even a year and wants to beat the little girl, she still has the urge to give him a burning stick.
The cold air emanating from the girl's body made Shao Mingyuan quickly move away, and said with a serious face: "Miss Li, I may have seen it wrong." β
He would rather go back and repair that stinky boy and try to take care of Miss Li in the future than confess to such a scary Miss Li!
"Hehe, General Shao don't comfort me. Qiao Zhao felt more and more that there was a problem, and said with a cold face, "General Shao don't treat me as a timid little girl, I want to know who is calculating me behind my back than I don't know anything, so that I won't be on the road again in the future." β
Shao Mingyuan: "...... this girl is so difficult to coax!" He began to hesitate again between confessing or carrying it to death.
Qiao Zhao glanced at him and said lightly: "Actually, I have some vague guesses about the person who broke my carriage. β
"Huh?" Shao Mingyuan's eyes flashed.
"It's unlikely that the carriage had a problem when it went to Daifukuji Temple, otherwise it might have broken down long ago and would have been easily discovered by the coachman. I guess the most likely possibility was that while the coachman was waiting for me outside the temple, someone broke the wheel while he was not looking. Well, nine times out of ten, the people who did this were pilgrims who went to Daifukuji Temple today. Qiao Zhao analyzed slowly, "The princess's car encountered an accident halfway and took my car, which proves that they don't know that there is a problem with the carriage, which also excludes their possibility." Today is not a special day, and the weather is not good, so there shouldn't be too many pilgrims going to Daifukuji Temple, so I went back and asked, maybe I could know some clues. β
Someone made a decision in an instant: he had better confess!
"Miss Liβ" Shao Mingyuan shouted.
Qiao Zhao put down the burning stick and gently squeezed his wrist: "Huh?"
"Actually...... Your carriage was broken by my subordinates......"
Qiao Zhao subconsciously picked up the burning stick again.
What's the situation, Shao Mingyuan first told her that the carriage was vandalized, and now he told her that his subordinates broke it, so can she understand that this bastard has nothing to say to tease the little girl?
