Li Jingxuan left with doubts, and the four princes were called away by the imperial concubine as soon as they got together, and they never appeared at the banquet again.

At the end of the palace banquet, the eldest lady came to Xiao Lingxiao, her face was full of motherly smiles, and she said softly, "Lingxiao, the emperor has pointed out a good family business for you, and this time my mother will personally prepare for you, so that you can marry from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the Mudd Palace." ”

Xiao Lingxiao sneered when she heard this, turned her head to look at the old lady behind her, and asked, "Old lady, do you also think this is a good family business?" ”

The old lady had a cold face as if she didn't want to deal with Xiao Lingxiao, but there were other people around, and she was not good at attacking, so she had to say patiently, "Princess Mude is our Xiao family, and the emperor is her biological son who is pointing out for you, this is a good family affair that no one else can ask for, are you still dissatisfied?" ”

"Not satisfied? Hahaha. Xiao Lingxiao shook her head with a smile.

At this time, Su Donghan came over, and Princess Mude seemed to be a little uneasy, so she also followed.

The four of them saluted each other, but Xiao Lingxiao was like an outsider. Su Donghan glanced at Xiao Lingxiao and said, "Lingxiao, don't worry, when you get married, I will let you ...... Enjoy. Hahaha......"

When the eldest lady heard this, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth also provoked a smile.

Princess Mude didn't notice the weirdness of the atmosphere between them, took a step forward, took Xiao Lingxiao's hand, and looked up and down happily for a long time, before saying, "This girl looks good and has a good figure, and when she enters the palace in the future, she will definitely be able to spread the branches and leaves of the Su family!" ”

Xiao Lingxiao silently withdrew her hand, sighed lightly, and said, "Aunt Princess, what you say, Ling Xiao can't afford it, there must be someone else who opens up the branches and leaves for the Su family, but I'm afraid that I, Xiao Lingxiao, don't have this blessing." ”

Several people present were stunned when they heard Xiao Lingxiao's words. Su Donghan immediately frowned and asked, "Xiao Lingxiao, what do you mean by this?" Do you still want to resist the decree? ”

Xiao Lingxiao looked at him coldly and snorted, "Resist? When did I, Xiao Lingxiao, receive that holy decree? You are all smart and clear-eyed, I didn't answer the emperor's instructions for this family business, and it was the old lady and the eldest lady who thanked the emperor! Since I, Xiao Lingxiao, didn't accept the decree, how can I resist the decree? If you want to resist the decree, I will resist in front of the emperor! Didn't he blame anything? ”

"You're using strong words!" Su Donghan shouted angrily, but the wound on his back was faintly painful.

Xiao Lingxiao sneered, "You're right, I'm really just a strong argument." Anyway, what I said here is clear, I, Xiao Lingxiao, did not agree to this family business, let alone marry you Su Donghan! If you have any objections, while you are still in the palace, you can immediately go to the emperor for comment! If you don't dare to go, hmph, I don't have anything else to say, everyone go home. ”

Princess Mulder didn't figure out what was going on for a while, and stood there stunned, but the other three immediately reacted, Xiao Lingxiao was deliberately so, so she didn't continue to say anything in front of the emperor just now!

"Xiao Lingxiao! This matter is the emperor's holy decree, you have to marry if you marry, and you have to marry if you don't marry! Su Donghan gritted his teeth and said angrily.

Xiao Lingxiao glanced at him, "What?" The dignified little prince of the Mudd Palace, and he also learned the tricks of bandits and bandits? This is the palace inside, are you going to rob people, or do you want to pick flowers? ”

The word "picking flowers" was bitten very hard by Xiao Lingxiao, and when Princess Mulder heard these two words, the expression on her face became ugly. She also heard the rumors outside, saying that Xiao Lingxiao, who was targeted by the flower thief, identified Su Donghan as the flower thief on the Wanjin Hao gamble. Princess Mude immediately thought that Xiao Lingxiao was still misunderstanding that Su Donghan was a flower thief, so she would rather resist the decree than marry him.

Princess Mude let out a long sigh, came to the old lady of the Xiao family, and said, "Old lady, it seems that Ling Xiao's misunderstanding of Donghan is very deep, what do you think should be done about this matter?" ”

The old lady naturally knew what Princess Mulder meant, she lowered her head and thought about it, then raised her head and said to Xiao Lingxiao, "No matter what you say, the emperor has already issued a holy decree." The holy decree cannot be disobeyed, you go home with us first, and discuss other matters slowly. ”

Xiao Lingxiao's resistance to the decree alone will definitely affect the entire Xiao family, not to mention that the old lady and the eldest lady knelt down to thank the emperor, and if the marriage fails, their responsibilities are inevitable. The old lady's first thought was to let Xiao Lingxiao go home, and when she went back, she would clean her up. It's a big deal to pour her another bowl of poison to see if she can cause more trouble for the Xiao family! As long as she doesn't die, after sending the sedan chair, the Xiao family will not care.

The old lady made up her mind, and walked out.

At this time, I heard Xiao Lingxiao sneer again, and said quietly, "Old lady, I think you are old and easy to forget what happened before, right?" If you don't remember, I remind you that before you and my father kicked me out of the house, I said that if you two did not kneel before me and beg me, I would never have set foot in the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

When the old lady heard this, her whole person seemed to have been struck by lightning, and she could hardly believe her ears! What did Xiao Lingxiao, the rebel, say?

Even the eldest lady and the others paused in surprise, and looked at Xiao Lingxiao with wide eyes like a monster.

I saw Xiao Lingxiao stepping lightly on the lotus step, walking forward slowly, and said loudly in his mouth, "I, Xiao Lingxiao, am a person who does what I say, and every word I say counts." As you all know, I made a windfall, so I bought a mansion for some money, and now I live there. You should all be able to find the Lu Mansion on Shili Street. ”

After that, Xiao Lingxiao had already left them behind, and she didn't look back.

Princess Mude's brows furrowed into pimples, and when she came back to her senses, she turned to the old lady and the eldest lady and said, "I can't say much about the affairs of the Xiao family now, this matter concerns our two families, and please handle it properly!" I'll go back and prepare for the family affair, and I'll come to the door another day, and we'll agree on the wedding date! ”

With that, Princess Mulder pulled Su Donghan and left quickly.

The eldest lady's heart was pounding, she turned her head to look at the old lady, and saw that her face was pale, obviously angry. At this time, Xiao Huanyu and Xiao Huanxue, who had been standing not far away, also hurriedly stepped forward, and they also heard Xiao Lingxiao's words just now.

Xiao Huanyu stepped forward and said to the old lady, "Old lady, don't be angry, it's not a day or two that the eldest sister is so unreasonable, and when she goes back and tells her father, her father will definitely have a way to punish her." ”

Xiao Huanxue pursed her lips and tugged at Xiao Huanyu's sleeve, signaling her not to say more. Xiao Huanyu frowned a little dissatisfied, and said again, "If you continue to indulge like this, eldest sister, she will harm our Xiao family sooner or later!" ”

"Shut up!" The old lady roared angrily, glared at Xiao Huanyu and said sharply, "The Xiao family has the blessing of the ancestors and the grace of our emperor, no one can harm the Xiao family!" ”

Xiao Huanyu had never seen the old lady so angry, so she hurriedly shrunk her neck and silently followed her out of the palace.

After the Xiao family returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the old lady immediately called Xiao Shuyong to Xianglin Courtyard. The eldest lady was also an insider, but the old lady kicked her out. The eldest lady returned to her yard and threw a lot of things in anger. When the anger was almost over, the lady went into the inner room, took out a champa from his bosom, brushed it with a pen, and wrote something on it, and then went to the backyard alone.

Like a thief, the eldest lady looked around carefully to make sure that no one was following her, and then she took a birdcage from a dead branch, took out the bird inside, tied the champa around the bird's neck, and then let go of her hand and watched the bird fly away. After that, the eldest lady sighed softly, and then turned back.

Not far away, on the top of the ridge, two heads were exposed.

Xiao Lingxiao silently pointed to the sky, the wolf understood, and a white figure floated back and forth like lightning, and it captured the bird that let the eldest lady go away in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Lingxiao smiled and took off the champa around the bird's neck, and unfolded it to see that there were still a few vague words on it.

"The peasants wield hoes, lie down and dig rats, and the harm is eradicated, and the fertile soil of the valley is abundant."

Others couldn't understand what these four sentences meant, but Xiao Lingxiao and the divine wolf understood it at once. The eldest lady was giving Su Donghan instructions to go to the Lu Mansion as soon as possible to cut the grass and eradicate the roots and kill Xiao Lingxiao.

"The eldest lady can't hold her breath?" The divine wolf snorted coldly.

Xiao Lingxiao re-tied the champa around the bird's neck as it was, released the bird into the air, and then said to the wolf, "Let's go back." ”

The divine wolf was stunned for a moment, "Master, let's not go and see what the old lady and Xiao Shuyong are plotting for?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao shook her head and said, "Those two people are scheming, and I can probably guess their actions." But now we have an important matter to do, we have to go back to Bao Rong'er for help. ”

The divine wolf didn't ask much, pulled Xiao Lingxiao over, and the two of them flashed, and then returned to the inner house of the Lu Mansion.

In the room, Xiao Fengming and Bao Rong'er were sitting around the table waiting for Xiao Lingxiao. Seeing that they were back, Xiao Fengming hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Sister, are you okay?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao smiled at him, "It's just a trip to the Prime Minister's Mansion, what can it do?" After that, she called Bao Rong'er and said, "The eldest lady used a bird to pass the book to Su Donghan again, Bao Rong'er, you have worked hard in the past two days, to find out the connection between the two of them, don't let go of the slightest detail." Remember, don't let them find out. ”

Bao Rong'er nodded, got up and went out.

The divine wolf also returned to Xiao Lingxiao's body, and only Xiao Fengming and Xiao Lingxiao were left in the room.

Xiao Fengming obviously had no intention of leaving, he forcefully pulled Xiao Lingxiao to sit at the table, pushed a few plates of small snacks that had been prepared in front of her, poured her a cup of hot tea, and said with a smile, "After telling me about the palace banquet, you can go and rest, otherwise I won't be able to sleep all night." ”

Xiao Lingxiao supported her chin with one hand, looked at Xiao Fengming helplessly, and saw that he pinched a small piece of pastry and chewed it in his mouth, and was full of interest, so he had to nod and open his mouth to tell him.

As soon as her mouth opened, Xiao Fengming quickly pinched a small piece of pastry and stuffed it into her mouth.

The soft sweetness spread out in her mouth all of a sudden, Xiao Lingxiao couldn't help but be stunned, at this moment, Xiao Fengming's fingers gently slid over her soft lower lip, the slightly rough touch was a little tender, reflecting the flickering candlelight, it seemed so ulterior.
