Chapter 167: What a big bag
After thinking about it, Cao Taibao decided to find someone to report to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince secretly, as for talking to the emperor...... Then let's take a break for a while, I have to listen to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince first, and then make a decision.
Prince Zhou Minchang has been really miserable these days, he has to be busy with the affairs of the court, and he has to secretly interrogate about the assassination of the Zhenguo general Zhang Hongjin, and he is also busy taking care of the prince's mansion that he is about to establish.
After coming out of the palace of his mother-in-law, Concubine Xian, the prince didn't want to stay in the palace anymore, he had to go out to dissipate his breath, alas...... It's been a long time since there's been any news of Hanxiang......
Thinking of Hanxiang, the fire in the crown prince Zhou Minchang's stomach rose.
The blue sky covers the sunset that is about to fall, only a trace of warm light on the horizon is laid straight on the ground, the early withered lilac petals are thinly piled up in the streets and alleys, the air is slightly warm and refreshing, people walk slowly in it, and soon feel that the body seems to be filled with this clear air and a faint fragrance of flowers, and the anger is good or angry, it will gradually dissipate, and only feel comfortable.
The prince's escort team, it must be quite spectacular and large-scale, Zhou Minchang didn't want so many people to follow him, he had to evacuate well, so he went out of the palace this time, and only let two groups of secret guards follow him, of course, his attendant still followed him, because there were many things, and he had to rely on this attendant to deal with it.
Riding on the horse, Zhou Minchang swayed all the way, the anger in his heart was really scattered a lot with the fragrance of the breeze and flowers, and after thinking about it, he turned his head to look at Lao Chen, the chief eunuch of the interior who was riding on the horse and one step behind him, and asked, "There is no itinerary today, right?" ”
Manager Chen has been with Zhou Minchang for nearly 20 years, and seeing his itchy look licking his lips, he naturally knows the meaning of his words, so he obediently replied: "If you go back to His Royal Highness the Prince, all the trips for today have been completed, and there is another one, but there is no need to worry about it for a while." ”
Zhou Minchang was very satisfied with his words, twisted the reins, turned the horse's head, and said happily: "Go, go to Shilibao!" After saying that, he took the lead in raising the horsewhip and whipped it, and beat the horse and ran.
Chief Manager Chen and his two disciples also turned the horse's head and kept up with the pace of the crown prince Zhou Minchang. Hidden in the shadows, the guards shuttled between the shadows of the trees without a trace.
The people sent by Cao Taibao to find the prince Zhou Minchang naturally pounced on the air and returned empty-handed, and Cao Taibao couldn't sit still in a hurry, so he only walked back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back.
Xue Lan saw that he was anxious again, and hurriedly stepped forward, and comforted him in a soft voice: "My lord, don't panic first, haven't you already sent Yun Ang to find the eldest lady?" Maybe, it won't be long before you can find the eldest lady, if you panic, then the whole house will be in a mess? ”
Xue Lan is worthy of being the most favored girl by Cao Taibao's side, not only is she outstanding, her body is delicate, and her brain is even better, at least, she is much stronger than Cao Xianxian's mother Cao Taibao's wife Lin.
Cao Taibao sighed, and said annoyedly: "I've been looking for this all afternoon, and there is no news at all, you say, according to what Xian Rou said, that man is just a servant walking the streets and alleys in the market, such a person, where can he have the ability to hide Xian Xian so deeply, so that we can't even find the slightest clue?" ”
Xue Lan was actually puzzled in her heart, but she didn't dare to make trouble for Cao Taibao anymore, so she had to smile softly and comforted: "If you say that you can hide people, when the slave maid was still at home before, I heard the people in the village say that these people who walk the streets and alleys know the most places in the private realm, and the slave and maid were still young at that time, so naturally they don't know what it means, now that I think about it, there is a little bit of truth, my lord, after all, you are the first person in this dynasty, and Yun Ang is your subordinate, you think, let's find a place, How can they know as thoroughly as their deviant ones? ”
Cao Taibao is a sensitive person, otherwise, he would not have such a powerful position as he is now, Xuelan originally intended to comfort him, but in the end, it was self-defeating.
Cao Taibao's triangular eyes widened, and his voice was full of murderous sharpness, "What did you say?" A private place? You say, this servant dares to take the crown princess who was personally ordered to marry by the emperor to a private place? ”
Xue Lan secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly made up for it: "My lord, the slave is not likely to think about it, after all, ...... Do you think, the eldest lady's dress, even if they want to rob and kidnap, they have to weigh their own status, right? I also have to wonder if this person is the object that they can offend and offend? Besides, these people who walk the streets and alleys and mingle in the market have the most brains, so it can be seen that if they are stupid, they will not be able to get into the eyes of the eldest lady, my lord, don't worry too much. ”
Cao Taibao sighed and nodded, what Xue Lan said was actually unreasonable, the people at the bottom of the market are most afraid of the powerful, afraid of causing trouble on their bodies, and what they said to themselves delicately would not be lies, thinking of this, he was also relieved of himself, reached out and touched Xue Lan's delicate face, and said with a smile: "You are still the most intimate baby." ”
Xue Lan was shy and timid, and lowered her eyes in embarrassment, but she was secretly relieved in her heart.
Cao Taibao touched the tender and smooth muscles in his hand, and couldn't help but feel uneasy, he was under too much pressure, he had to make himself relaxed.
A big horizontal picked up Xue Lan, accompanied by Xue Lan's low voice, put her on the resting couch, Xue Lan's heart was almost frightened by him to the throat of the eyes, raised his eyes to see the triangular eyes of Cao Taibao's eyes full of desire, with a wave of nausea in her heart, but on her face, she was still red on her cheeks, and said shyly: "My lord, you haven't had dinner yet, you ...... You ......"
"Hehe, little goblin, my lord I think you are uncomfortable, quick, help me ......"
The inner study was bubbling with a beautiful color.
When Liu Yunyun was sent back to Liufu by Zhou Minhao, Liu Dalang had been waiting in the mansion for a long time, Liu Yunyun asked him to come into the house to talk, Liu Dalang lowered his head and followed Liu Yunyun into the hall of Yunyuan.
"Second Miss, Hanxiang has already gone out of the city, and the people from the Fuyuan Wai and Zhao Wu faction will personally escort her, so you don't have to worry about safety, it's just that Miss Hanxiang asked me to bring you a word."
Liu Yunyun looked at the awkward Liu Dalang with a smile, and said teasingly: "Did you tell me that if you want to find a man, remember to polish your eyes a little, observe more and investigate more, and choose a good variety that is one in a million?" ”
After listening to what Liu Yunyun said, Liu Dalang opened his mouth and stammered, and after a while, he was choked by his own saliva and coughed.
Huanhuan smiled and poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, patting him on the shoulder like a passerby, "Look at you, didn't I teach you to remember that when you encounter anything, you must be as immobile as a mountain?" Just a few words that scare you? ”
Liu Yunyun happily looked at Huanhuan with a big face, and interjected without giving face, "Yes, our Huanhuan is the most immobile like a mountain, and if you want to come to peace, you can also find a few more women to let yourself be trained a little more, and in the future, the children and wives and concubines in his own backyard will not move like a mountain, and he will suffer." ”
Huan Huan's eyes widened, looking at Liu Yunyun who was smiling evilly, and suddenly choked on himself with a mouthful of saliva, and coughed violently, "Second Miss...... You...... Ahem...... Your elbow...... Ahem, ahem, turn out! ”
Liu Yunyun laughed, pointed at Huanhuan and said, "Look, look, who made you laugh at Liu Dalang, the present world is reported, right?" ”
Huan Huan stomped his feet and said indignantly: "Hmph! I won't tell you, I'll go get new clothes for Uncle Liu. ”
Seeing Huan Huan turn around and leave the house, Liu Yunyun straightened her face, looked at Liu Dalang and said: "Today, His Royal Highness asked people to tie up Cao Taibao's eldest daughter Cao Qianxian, the eldest lady of the Cao family, I remember that you have also seen it, you want to find a way to let this Cao Xianxian appear in the Qinglou, remember, you have to let Cao Xianxian know that it was Cao Qianrou, the fifth lady from the Cao family, who did it, looking for Ying Yi, you should know how to contact Ying Yi." ”
Liu Dalang nodded and said, "Second Miss, when I came just now, Zhao Wu told me that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince seems to have gone to Baihualou outside Fuyuan again. You say, do you want to ......"
Liu Yunyun waved her hand, "Don't!" I don't have to cause trouble for Baihualou! Let Cao Xianxian be rescued by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince at the gate of the city, um......" Liu Yunyun lowered her eyes, thought about it, raised her head, and said: "Just let her be disheveled, it's not suspicious that she is broken." ”
Liu Dalang took the order and went out of Liufu to find Keichi.
The night is deep, and a bright moon is proudly staring at the world, hanging lonely and high in the air, and it also shines coldly on the earth.
Zhou Minchang walked out of Baihualou lightly, his mouth hung up to the root of his ears, it can be seen how happy he is, he smacked his lips, and thought unsatisfactorily, this Mei'er is really a stunner, not to mention the exquisite figure, that small mouth...... Tsk, it's really ecstatic.
Cao Xian, who was disheveled in clothes and a cloak that was scattered from the sky, fell at the city gate with a "bang", and also fell in front of the horse of the crown prince Zhou Minchang.
Zhou Minchang was still immersed in the realm of the coquettish ecstasy just now, and a muffled sound of "bang" blew him back to reality, he quickly grabbed the reins, and the horse seemed to be startled, and was strangled by Zhou Minchang, "Bang" screamed, raised two front hooves, and almost didn't throw Zhou Minchang off.
"What's going on!" Zhou Minchang controlled the horse and asked angrily, obviously the situation in front of him ruined his good mood.
When Manager Chen heard Zhou Minchang's roar, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to squeak, and hurriedly drove forward to check the situation.
After Cao Xianxian woke up, she was blindfolded and stuffed in a burlap bag, and I don't know how long it took, so long that she wanted to bite her tongue and kill herself, only to be carried up, and also carried all the way to run, her head was already hit hard, plus she was stopped and carried on her shoulders, her head was hanging and upside down, and she was even more dizzy, and suddenly stopped, and was taken out of the burlap bag as if she was carrying a rag, and quickly tore off the cloth strips stuffed with hemp kernels and eyes in her mouth. Before she could get her eyes adjusted to the light around her, let alone see everything around her, she was picked up and thrown away......
"Bang"! She was slammed to the ground!
Cao Xianxian's mouth was stuffed for too long, causing her to be hoarse and unable to make a sound now, she squinted her eyes in panic, let her eyes adapt to the light around her, rubbed her buttocks, which was in great pain, and had a big bag on her forehead after being fallen, how embarrassed and embarrassed.
The soldiers guarding the city around were startled by the scene of this embarrassed girl falling from the sky, and Manager Chen came on horseback, turned over and dismounted and carried his robe and went straight to Cao Xianxian.
"Squeak......" suddenly stopped his steps, and Manager Chen's eyes widened instantly, and he was stunned to see the prospective princess sitting on the ground in a panicked manner with her hair disheveled and her clothes scattered, ...... this?
Mr. Chen grew up in the palace where the cannibalistic man was a child, and he was naturally a person who had seen the sun and wind and rain, that is, in a moment, he relieved himself and quickly let his apprentices protect Cao Xianxian, and he quickly turned over and got on the horse, and ran to the prince Zhou Minchang and said: "Your Highness, it's the eldest lady of the Cao family......" Seeing that Zhou Minchang turned from surprise to anger, he immediately reminded: "Your Highness, don't be impatient, this matter is strange to the slave, or it is not appropriate to make a noise, first send Miss Cao back to Cao's mansion, You can ask for it yourself. ”
Cao Xianxian recognized the two apprentices of Mr. Chen, and when he saw that they had brought their clothes over, he hurriedly put them on randomly, raised his eyes, and saw the prince Zhou Minchang sitting on the horse, only thinking that this man was his savior, and at this moment, he cried regardless of his image, and ran towards Zhou Minchang.
While running, he shouted: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince, save me, save the slender ......"
Ying Yi, who was hidden in the shadows of the trees in the shadows, and Liu Dalang, who was protected by him, saw this scene, looked at each other and smiled, grinning! Cao Xianxian's performance really makes this drama even better!
Ying Yi vigilantly avoided the secret guards of the crown prince Zhou Minchang, and pulled Liu Dalang back, they had to go back as soon as possible to report to the second highness Zhou Minhao about the progress of today's situation.
Cao Xianxian naturally couldn't get close to the side of the crown prince Zhou Minchang, because she was kicked out again by Zhou Minchang's secret guard, and this time, she was really injured!
Zhou Minchang's good mood was completely destroyed, and all that was transformed was anger, his crown princess and his wife were treated like this, what a Cao Taibao, it was really bold!
You must know that ancient men, especially those who were high-ranking and powerful and unparalleled in the world like Zhou Minchang, although they didn't treat women as people, but they treated women as their own property, what do you think, since it is property, others are under your nose, stealing your wallet and spending your money, who is not angry?
Therefore, Zhou Minchang ordered Lao Chen, the chief manager, to find a carriage temporarily, regardless of whether the carriage was dilapidated or not, pulled the seriously injured Cao Xianxian, and went to Cao Taibao's mansion angrily.
Cao Taibao and Xue Lan fought for two rounds, hearty and comfortable, soaked in a comfortable bath, and was enjoying the belated dinner at this time, the porter had a tense face, trotted all the way to the enjoyment room, and said tremblingly: "My lord, the prince ......."
"What's wrong with the prince?" Cao Taibao stood up suddenly, stopped eating, put down the chopsticks and rice bowl with a "snap", and asked eagerly at the porter.
"The prince is here in the house, and there is a carriage, and he is about to enter the second gate."
"Let's go!" Cao Taibao pulled Xue Lan and ran to the second gate together.
Zhou Minchang angrily glared at Cao Taibao, who was kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to himself tremblingly, pointed at him, and roared angrily: "Look at the good things you have done in the house!" After speaking, he snorted, flicked his sleeves and strode into the second door, heading to the front hall.
Cao Taibao hurriedly raised his eyes and looked at Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen approached him, and explained in a low and simple way, Cao Taibao was shocked, and hurriedly ordered someone to call the doctor, the imperial doctor He did not dare to announce it, in case some official eunuchs knew about his daughter's good marriage, and after the order, he asked people to carry Cao Xianxian back to her yard, and he trotted all the way to Zhou Minchang to chase him.
Cao Xianxian returned to her yard, angrily ordered someone to call Cao Qianrou over, and the big girl butterfly asked people to boil hot water and prepare everything for bathing, only then did she look at Cao Xianxian and persuaded in a low voice: "Miss, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is in the house at this time, you still have to see the doctor in a while, and now Miss Xuanwu is here, it is not appropriate." ”
Cao Xianxian was really carried away by anger, she didn't want to care about anyone, what the overall situation, what face, she didn't want to think about it much, she was frightened and insulted today, she must take revenge, and she must let Cao Qianrou die a good death.
"Do you call it? You dead girl, you dare to disobey my words? I think you're doing the opposite! Cao Xian's voice hadn't recovered much, and he roared hoarsely, but his strength was completely gone, and it sounded like a snake spitting out its core.
"Miss, you have to bathe first, or ...... That's all you want to show the doctor? "Butterfly has been serving Cao Xianxian since she was a child, and she naturally knows that the eldest lady in her family loves beauty the most and wants to save face the most, so she hit the nail on the head.
Cao Xianxian had to temporarily stop wanting to find Cao Qianrou for revenge, and waited for the butterfly to bathe and change clothes, waiting for the doctor to come for treatment.
Cao Qianrou was in her own yard, listening to the little girl's report, fidgeting in fear, but the only advantage was that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was now in Cao's Mansion, and with the protection of His Royal Highness the Prince, Cao Qianxian couldn't do anything with herself if she wanted to, as for Cao Taibao...... That would not have done anything to sin against himself, and he did not allow himself to be punished during the day, and he will not do it now!
