The Zhong family brothers and sisters are all people, and Xiao Yao hurriedly sent the news out.

Xiao Yao sat for a while, still not at ease, and got up to go to Ye Shisan. It is still necessary to ask about the specific situation, so that it is easy to make a judgment.

As soon as she got out of the yard, Mama Wei greeted her, and she saluted from afar: "The slave has seen Master Hou." ”

"Mama Wei? Mama doesn't have to be polite, is there something that grandmother commands? Let people come and spread the word, why bother to run in person? ”

Xiao Yao was a little surprised, it's not a big deal, Mama Wei won't come to her yard, is there something wrong with grandmother? But you can see Mama Wei smiling, not like it?

Mama Wei smiled and said, "It's not that the old lady has something, it's that the old lady misses you, please ask the Hou Ye to come over and talk." ”

Xiao Yao was slightly surprised in his heart, he said hello every morning and evening, and he never interrupted for a day, why did his grandmother think about himself? I'm afraid that if there is something, Mama Wei is not easy to say.

"Okay, I'll go over here."

Xiao Yao turned around and went to Kangning Hall, thinking about Princess Mu Xuanxuan of Dali on the way.

When he came to Kangning Hall, Xiao Yao had just entered the courtyard gate and heard laughter.

Xiao Yao turned his head to look at Mama Wei, seeing that she was hanging her head, a faint displeasure rose from her heart. But with a polite smile on his face, he walked in.

"The grandson has seen the grandmother, the old lady."

The county lord of Fuling was in good spirits today, his face was full of smiles, and he hurriedly introduced: "Xiao Yao, this is your third aunt, your third aunt's family used to be in northern Shaanxi and just returned to the capital. Also, this is your cousin Miao Miao. ”

In the room, a girl with a round face and round eyes and a sweet smile Ying Ying Yifu: "Miao Miao has seen her cousin." I heard that my cousin is the first genius of Da Zhou, and Miao Miao admires him! ”

Xiao Yao was ashamed. Xiao Yao didn't know that the third aunt and cousin came to the door, and they missed the welcome, please forgive me. ”

No matter how unhappy Xiao Yao is in his heart, he will not embarrass the guests in public.

Seeing Xiao Yao's displeasure, the county lord of Fuling didn't say much, but said: "It's all my own family, it's okay, it's okay." asked you to come over, just thinking that you are familiar with Princess Mingzhu and Miss Zhong of the Qinguo Mansion. Your cousin has just returned to Beijing and there are not many people to know, and I want you to introduce him. ”

Xiao Yao looked embarrassed, thought about it again and again, and arched his hand.

"Grandmother, I will go to the court the day after tomorrow, where will I have time to ask to see Princess Mingzhu. Why don't we hold a spring banquet in our house and invite the ladies from each province to play, won't my cousin know more people? ”

Xiao Yao's words were tricky, which not only showed that it was inconvenient to disturb Princess Mingzhu, but also made this Miao Miao's cousin retreat.

Sure enough, the third aunt spoke, and said with a smile: "Look at it, I'll just say that these little Langjun, how can they be thoughtful." Although our Fang family is not as powerful as your Hou Mansion, it is also a member of the three grades of the imperial court. If Miao Miao appeared in the capital for the first time, it was at your house, what would others say? In case of misunderstanding, it will not be good to affect Yingyihou. ”

Xiao Yao smiled and said nothing, while Fang Miaomiao stared at Xiao Yao openly. It was the lord of Fuling County who diverted the topic, and after a while, the third aunt and the others took their leave.

"Xiao Yao, send your third aunt and them back. Remember, to send home, step on the door, next time to visit. ”

Xiao Yao responded with a smile and sent the ancestors and grandchildren of the Fang family out.

I thought that this Fang Miaomiao would ride in the carriage with her grandmother, but I didn't expect her to ride very well, pedaling a jujube red horse, and smiled defiantly.

"Cousin, do you dare to race with me?"

Xiao Yao didn't speak, glanced at Lu Fei, and Lu Fei immediately smiled and said, "Miss Fang, this is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, it's the capital, and horse racing is not allowed." ”

"It's boring! Cousin, when you take me to the suburbs for horse racing, I want to compete with you in riding! I heard that you are both civil and military! ”

Fang Miaomiao's face was still a little baby fat, and her red face was like a red apple. Speaking without any consideration, he seemed innocent and scheming, but Xiao Yao still didn't want to get close.

"Cousin Fang, those are just a cloud of people. My riding skills are average, and I can't compare to my cousin Fang. Please! ”

Xiao Yao took the lead in setting off, Fang Miaomiao followed behind a horse body, and when they sent their mother-in-law and grandson back to the house, Xiao Yao still went to Ye Thirteen.

"Ye Thirteen, do you have any news about Mu Xuanxuan?"

Ye 13 was consulting the file, and when he saw Xiao Yao coming in the dust, he sighed: "I thought you would arrive an hour ago, but I didn't expect it to be late." ”

Xiao Yao frowned: "Ye Thirteen, what do you mean?" ”

"It's not interesting, you just want to see how much the princess weighs in your heart? You will love the house and Wu, think about what she thinks, and be anxious about what she is anxious about. ”

Ye Shisan looked at Xiao Yao with blazing eyes, Xiao Yao actually flinched a little, and said instead: "That news is fake?" You're just teasing me to tempt? ”

"No, the message is true. This Dali princess is not the royal princess of the Dali Mu family. Her mother was a princess of the country of Piao, and she was a good sister to Queen Dali. After her mother died, she defected to the Empress of Dali, and then was accepted as a righteous daughter, not only very favored, but also strong in martial arts, and was a female general in Dali. ”

After Ye Shisan finished speaking, Xiao Yao was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted.

"Are you saying that the country of Bi that was destroyed by the order of Duke Qin Guo back then is Mu Xuanxuan's homeland, and she is here to take revenge?"

Ye Shisan didn't answer this question, but said, "I'm not sure about this, but I don't rule out this possibility." Now that she is in Dali, there are not many people who know that she is not a real princess, so the news has only arrived today. ”

Xiao Yao couldn't help but smack his tongue, although Empress Dowager Zhong doesn't care about the government, but this intelligence network all over the world is really powerful.

"Then you have already sent the news to the palace, why did you tell me again?"

Xiao Yao didn't understand what kind of mentality Ye Shisan had in order to tell himself about this tactfully.

Ye Shisan closed the file and said with a smile: "Fang Shilang of the Ministry of War is about to take office, his mother and Mrs. Xiao are sisters, I just want to try, will relatives come to the door, beauty is like a cloud, so that Marquis Xiao can't walk?" ”

Xiao Yao's face sank, and he said in a low voice: "Mingzhu also knows?" ”

"This is what I know, the Queen Mother knows. But if Princess Mingzhu knows it or not, I don't know. ”

Ye Shisan had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of ridicule, and Xiao Yao brushed his sleeves away.

After Xiao Yao left, Ye Shisan picked up the ink strip casually and began to grind the ink, thinking in his heart: If Xiao Yao dares to live up to Princess Mingzhu, then he is his undying enemy!

A person like him who can pick the bright moon in the sky will never understand his heart that he can only look up to the moonlight.

That night, Xiao Yao came to Kangning Hall to say goodbye as usual.

Lord Fuling leaned on the couch and said lightly: "You sent Miao Miao and them back to the house?" How is it? ”

"Grandmother, there is a difference between men and women, and it is okay for our relatives to come and go, but Cousin Fang, I dare not get close."

Xiao Yao's meaning was obvious, and the Lord of Fuling County sighed: "What? Before you marry the princess and enter the door, do you already have to obey the rules of the horse? ”
