After a day, she entered this cherry blossom courtyard again, Cao Ran took the jade Qinglu handed to her by Yu Wenhua and listened to him: "Although there are many elixirs of the Phantom Doctor, but the jade Qinglu is a royal secret, he may not have it, apply it twice more before going to bed, and tomorrow you don't have to learn to walk with crabs." ”

Cao Ran was overjoyed in her heart, but she thanked her face: "Today, I have let His Highness spend two hundred taels of silver to make a big mistake, how can I use such a precious medicine from His Highness." ”

Yu Wenhua smiled in his eyes, and said indifferently on his face: "It's not the first time that someone has taken me as the wronged leader, and a small pawnshop in the west of the city also said in vain that I had used a small bag of golden melon seeds from his family, and in the name of this, he improved his own façade and attracted a lot of noble businesses in the city." But I didn't see that small bag of golden melon seeds, and I didn't get a small profit, so I let that small shop use my reputation in vain. ”

Cao Ran was originally just a polite thank-you, but after hearing this, she really didn't dare to use it.

That little pawnshop in the west of the city! Isn't that exactly what he took away with that jade pendant in the name of King Xuan? Did he even know that she had done it?

That day, he went to King Qi's mansion to find Yu Wenqiao, but he caused a lot of trouble because of the jade pendant on his body, so he took the jade pendant on a whim and used the name of King Xuan. I just wanted to find a shop to try, but I didn't expect the fat-headed and big-eared boss to give so many golden melon seeds as soon as he saw King Xuan's jade pendant, and he thought about taking one and taking it all, anyway, it was all in the name of King Xuan. Although he has always comforted himself with returning the money when he has it, he knows in his heart that this is just his own excuse, and I am afraid that Yu Wenhua will know about it, and he will only see himself as a little liar who is greedy for money.

Cao Ran asked weakly, "That...... Did the fat boss of the pawnshop come to ask you for money? How else would you know this? ”

Yu Wenhua said: "That's not true, I don't care about the silver, as long as they dare to ask for it, I will give it." Then he asked, "Then how do you know that the pawnshop owner is a fat man?" ”

Cao Ran said: "I...... Did I just say he's a fat man? Your Highness misheard it just now. ”

Seeing Yu Wenhua staring at himself silently, he thought to himself that he already knew, after all, he was an awe-inspiring prince here, and it was not easy to know what to do. Bringing this topic to her alone today must be to give Qing Ming face, but I also want her to know that this matter has been exposed. At this point, she only dared to act, and it was a big deal to find a way to return the money to the fat man and clarify the reputation of King Xuan.

She touched the jade pendant in her arms, lowered her head and said, "That golden melon seed ......"

"The pawnshop of the Golden Melon Seed family is richer and more powerful than Lanfeng Lou, so Mother He will not dare to come to me to ask for silver, and I don't have to do this wronged man, you can accept this jade dew with confidence." Yu Wenhua put Yu Qinglu into her hand and grabbed her words and said.

Cao Ran looked at the back of him who turned away, pondered for a long time, and didn't understand the bend he made a circle, clearly and secretly implying that he was using his name to deceive people with golden melon seeds, but why did he turn the conversation back in the end.

Maybe it's because she drank too much tea in Lanfeng Mansion during the day, and Cao Ran, who has never had the habit of getting up late, couldn't help it tonight. When she went to the bedroom comfortably after going to the toilet, she suddenly heard the voice of someone talking outside the moon door behind her.

Who wouldn't sleep in the dead of night be here, she light-footed close to the moon door.

One of them said, "Princess, even if we escape again, we won't be able to get out of the city gate before martial law is lifted?" ”

Another person said, "I have a waist sign to guard the city gate, and when we get to the city gate, we will knock out the two guards first, change their clothes, and then go out." ”

One of them said, "Waist card? Wasn't Fang just taken away by the Third Highness along with the two clothes? ”

The other person was obviously impatient and said: "I stole it back again, why are you so stupid!" If you continue to be so verbose, I'll leave you here, and I won't take you with me. ”

One seemed to cover his mouth, and his voice was muffled: "Princess, I won't speak." ”

The two seemed to stop, and one of them whispered, "Princess, I haven't spoken anymore, why are you standing here and not leaving?" ”

Another person hesitated and said: "I haven't been to the Third Brother's Mansion for many years, I just remember that there should be a low wall in this direction, why is it missing!" ”

Cao Ran was pondering that the voices of the two were a little familiar, so he listened to a big "Grunt!" I touched my stomach, and I felt that I was listening too unprofessionally in this corner, and I heard this "grunting" sound in the dead of night.

"Who's there?" The two figures outside the moon gate gradually approached, and Cao Ran came out in a hurry at night without a night light. The two of them also do things that do not see people, let alone carry open flames.

The three of them approached, and by the moonlight, they called out together: "It's you!" ”

Then there was a common second voice: "You're a woman!" ”

Cao Ran pointed to the two women in front of him and said in surprise: "Ninth Prince, you are ......"

Brother Qiao replied first: "This is the ninth princess of the dynasty, don't make a noise." ”

The Ninth Princess stepped forward and walked closer, looked at her and said, "Why did the third brother bring you back?" As if thinking of something, he said, "Oh! I understand, it's still the third brother who thinks about it thoroughly. ”

Cao Ran fanned her long eyelashes ignorantly and asked, "What do you mean by the Ninth Princess?" ”

The ninth princess said proudly: "King Da Liang Yue had a private meeting with a woman in a green building on the day of his wedding, how can such a big insult to my father be tolerated." Of course, you have to be handed over to your father to dispose of, so as to persuade your father to refuse the marriage with Daliang. ”

Cao Ran said nervously when she heard this: "I have an innocent relationship with Zhu Xuan, why do you want to deal with me?" Then he noticed another word, adding: "I'm not a Qinglou woman either!" ”

The Ninth Princess glanced at her and said, "Have you ever seen a thief admit that he is a thief?" Then he pulled Cao Ran's face to take a closer look, snorted and said: "I thought he was a young and ignorant little white face who had a private meeting, and I also escaped from the palace before I got into the sedan chair, since the two of them were just forced to marry helplessly, I don't blame him." But I didn't expect him to go to a private meeting with a girl in a green building! Wouldn't the people of the world say that I am not as good as a princess of a country, what is my face as a princess! ”

Cao Ran looked at the flash of "swish" in front of her, a cold sword was placed on her neck, she moved to the other side, keeping her neck an inch away from the sword blade, and then said with a little peace of mind: "How can the ninth princess think so!" How can the princess's golden phoenix body be compared with a little woman like me, if you don't believe what I said, you can find King Yue to confront me, if I deceive you, it's not too late for you to challenge me. ”

The Ninth Princess smiled proudly: "When you were in the small teahouse, weren't you quite capable of being a hero!" Now the knife holder is scared on the neck? ”

Cao Ran smiled and said: "This hero is also going to die, it's clear that it's not, things are not as the princess thinks, the princess is so beautiful and intelligent, how can she not know that if a man wants to have a private meeting with a woman, he must choose a dark and windy night to climb the corner, or find a place where no one is there to continue his personal relationship, how can he be so stupid as to be seen on the street in broad daylight!" Besides, the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, and I am a cloth cloth in the rivers and lakes, do you still need to choose? No one would choose me! ”

The ninth princess was happy to hear this, and the corners of her mouth opened and closed: "You know each other." He took the sword and said with a smile: "I didn't really want to kill you, if I kill you, what will I do to complain to my father and withdraw from the marriage!" Although what you said has some truth, I can't think of a better way to get out of this marriage now, so you can be wronged. ”

Cao Ran said angrily: "Since the princess already believes that I have an innocent relationship with King Yue, why do you want to put me to death? ”

The Ninth Princess said, "Who said I believe in your innocence? I'm just saying that there's some truth to what you're saying. But it's true that he went to you on the wedding day, how do you explain it? ”

How would she explain it? Cao Ran was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "He is looking for me to drink the wedding wine." ”

The Ninth Princess glanced at her and said, "Are you so good at deceiving me?" How busy was the day of marrying the princess, he didn't go to the palace gate early to prepare for the princess's sedan chair, and ran to find the girl to drink his wedding wine? Is he stupid or are you stupid? ”

Cao Ran was dumbfounded, and the sentence that Zhu Xuan said in the morning suddenly flashed in her mind: "Are you deliberately angry with me?" Or do you think that the bridegroom ran out to find other women on the big day just to drink the wedding wine? ”

He wasn't looking for himself to celebrate his wedding feast, what was that? She really didn't think about it so much, Zhu Xuan had always been mean to her, he was so arrogant, being able to treat himself as a friend was already the closest distance between the two she could think of. If he likes her, how can it be! On the way from Qi Wangfu to Beiyan with Zhu Xuan, in addition to feeling that he was dragging his feet, he treated her as a rough girl meanly, and even when he met that stinky Taoist priest who held her hostage, Luo Ying stepped forward to save her first, otherwise I am afraid that he would have become a wisp of green smoke.

"No matter who is stupid, it has nothing to do with you, the princess." Five steps away, Yu Wenhua was carrying a lantern, and a tall shadow was reflected at the Moon Gate, and he said to the Ninth Princess in a flat tone.

The Ninth Princess trembled when she heard this, instantly lost her arrogance, frowned again, and pouted, "Why has it nothing to do with me?" That King Yue has a personal affair with this Qinglou woman, so he can't marry me again, and the so-called marriage for the peace of the two countries for thousands of years will be regarded as it! ”

Yu Wenhua said lightly: "Don't play tricks anymore, even if King Yue really has an affair with another woman, my father will wipe everything clean for the marriage between the two countries, and then continue your harmony." He glanced at Cao Ran out of the corner of his eye, "It's just that more people will be sacrificed, but it won't change the result." ”

The ninth princess cried and said, "But is the third brother willing to watch my father marry me to Daliang like this?" You promised me that I would help me figure it out, have you forgotten? ”
