Chapter 388: Extra-Fifty
The folding fan in Mo Yutang's hand was gently pressed on his back, and he approached his ear, and said in a low voice: "For the sake of you and my colleagues for many years, this official will give you a little guidance." The official can only tell you that she is not something you can afford to offend, nor is it something that the lower officials can afford to offend, if you want the black gauze hat on your head, and you have a stable head on the neck, it is best not to provoke her, otherwise, if something goes wrong, no one can protect you. β
Cold sweat began to break out on the prefect's forehead, and he stiffened his body and said, "What the prefect means is that this girl's identity isβ"
Sent out by the Treasure Cabinet?
Could it be the princess herself?!
The prefect was a little incredulous, but Mo Yutang's next words shocked him on the spot.
"Some time ago, Suzhou should have also received the secret search notice of the five princes, presumably the portrait in the notice, if the adults are not old enough to identify clearly, they should understand the identity of that person."
The prefect's eyes widened, and the portrait flashed in his mind, and suddenly merged with Rong Qiao, who was competing in front of him.
His legs suddenly began to weaken, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
"My lord, please save the family of Xia Guan."
By this time, he had understood the true identity of the girl and what a stupid thing he had done.
Seeing him like this, Mo Yutang smiled faintly and said, "Adults don't need to be so alarmed. The official has heard of her style of acting, she likes to collect money very much, and she only likes to collect money, but she rarely dabbles in officialdom. As long as people don't offend her, she will never make an extra effort to deal with you. Therefore, after today, it is best for adults not to provoke her again. At this point, I hope that adults will do it themselves, think twice before acting, and don't hit the stone with an egg, and take their leave. β
Mo Yutang turned his back away, his crimson robe, like a bewitching flower, gradually faded in color, and floated away.
"Thank you, thank you, for your advice, the lower officials will definitely keep it in mind, and they don't dare to take half a step more."
The prefect's cold sweat had soaked his clothes, he stood up, lifted his sleeves, and wiped the cold sweat on his face.
It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, I thought that the most dangerous thing was to worry about the poisoning of Lord Mo, but I didn't expect that the most dangerous thing was that he almost captured the emperor's righteous daughter, Princess Jingyao-Rong Qiao.
If it weren't for Lord Mo Yutang Mo to mention it, if it weren't for his dangerous moves at that time, I'm afraid he would have made a big mistake, and then the one hundred and sixty people in his Liu family would have suffered a catastrophe.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat again. But fortunately, Master Mo reminded her that as long as she was in Suzhou for a day, he would try his best to make it convenient for her and not hinder her in business, so she would be safe and sound.
"Someone's coming." He thought it right, and he called for his subordinates.
"My lord, summon the little one, what do you command?" The man bowed and stood.
"Go, hurry up and inquire about the two distinguished guests sent by the Treasure Pavilion to participate in the competition this time, and see what kind of business they want to do when they come to Suzhou, so that the director of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce can give convenience. There is also an order to go down, as long as they are in Suzhou City for a day, none of you are allowed to provoke them, and those who violate them will be beheaded! Do you understand? The prefect said with an unusually fierce expression.
"My lord, did you hear me right?" Those two intercepted the wealth of the house and offended the little uncle's Diao people.
The prefect raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "If you still can't understand the words of the lower officials, then from tomorrow, you don't have to report to the yamen, go home." β
The subordinate nodded again and again: "The little one understands, the little one understands, the little one will inquire, and the little one will go." β
He looked panicked and hurriedly ran towards the door, but ran into Huang Asan who was depressed because he didn't teach Rong Qiao a lesson.
But seeing him follow a graceful and graceful woman, he walked over with an indignant face.
"Little dog, why are you in such a hurry?" Huang Asan looked at the puppy angrily.
"Back to the little uncle, the old man instructed, let the little one inquire about the needs of the distinguished guests from the Treasure Pavilion, and let the director of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce take care of it, the little one went, and when it was late, the master let the little one go home and eat himself."
The little dog still knew who the real owner of this house was, so he no longer paid attention to Huang Asan's angry face and left quickly.
Huang Asan didn't expect his brother-in-law to favor the two of them, he said angrily: "Sister, look at brother-in-law, if he does this, it's okay if he doesn't give face to his younger brother, but this is clearly slapping your face." β
The woman was told this by her brother, her face couldn't hold back, she said: "Sister, go to that old thing, see that the broken mouth dares not to give face to my sister." β
She rolled up her sleeves and strode to Governor Liu's mansion.
Huang Asan stood in place and smiled, this time my sister is out of the horse, aren't you afraid that your brother-in-law will be obedient? He was secretly refreshed, but he didn't expect that Aunt Jiu, who had always been favored this time, would not work in front of Governor Liu.
Because compared to a beautiful woman, for Liu Zhifu, his future and his power are much more important, he will not be stupid enough to offend Rong Qiao in order to favor a woman, and end up with the whole family ruined.
"Master, don't you care about your son? Master, the younger brother of the slave family is bullied like this, does the master not care? Slave, slave, I, I-woo-"
Huang Xi'er picked up the handkerchief and tried fake tears there, while secretly watching the expression of Governor Liu's mansion.
However, this time Governor Liu did not come to coax her, but annoyed her.
"It's okay not to mention your baby brother, but when you mention your baby brother, the official is still angry. If it weren't for him provoking offends everywhere, wouldn't the official use it to clean up the mess for him every time? This time, fortunately, this official met the noble man of Lord Mo, otherwise, my Liu Mansion would have been destroyed in the hands of your precious brother. You let him listen well, and in the future, he will not cause trouble in Suzhou City, especially those two masters, let him avoid leaving, otherwise, your Huang family will be cut off, don't blame the official for not reminding you, hum-"
Governor Liu swept his official sleeves and left angrily.
That Huang Xi'er was stunned for a while.
The old man has never been angry with her, this is the first time, it seems that the situation is very serious, even if she is stupid, she can hear that her family's unsuccessful brother has provoked something terrible this time.
At that moment, she looked panicked and went to find Huang Asan, hoping to remind him and tell him to avoid Rong Qiao and the two of them.
At this time, Rong Qiao was depressed, after she left Qingxue Villa, she did not go back to Suzhou Villa directly, but went to Piaoxianglou with Gong Huangjue to order a large table of dishes, she turned her anger into appetite, and unloaded eight pieces of roast duck on the plate.
Gong Huangjue called a pot of bamboo leaf green, drinking one by one, he didn't speak, but his eyes drifted to Rong Qiao who was desperately using food from time to time.
"Hey, cold-faced man, what do you see, if you want to eat, take it yourself, don't say let me invite you, I won't."
She didn't teach that damn Huang Asan a lesson, she was depressed enough, and now she has to look at Gong Huangjue's gloomy and uncertain face, she doesn't have such good patience and temper to coax him.
The bamboo leaf in Gong Huang Jue's cup drank it all and put it down gently, and suddenly his eyes were like electricity, staring at Rong Qiaojiao's good face tightly.
"That person, do you know?"
He first met Mo Yutang from the gate of Qingxue Mountain Villa, and observed Rong Qiao's hidden sadness, he didn't need to guess much, he should also understand what that person meant to Rong Qiao.
And he didn't like the dreamy light that occasionally flashed in Rong Qiao's eyes for that person, that kind of light, with the sweetness of memories, mixed with grief and indignation, and sour resentment.
If a person is completely removed from her heart, she should not have that expression when she sees that person again.
If she had talked and laughed at him, if she had ignored him, then his heart would not have become as uneasy and anxious as it is now.
He really wanted her to give him a reassurance, a definite answer.
Facing that man again, the determination in his heart that he had been wanting to wait patiently turned into ashes in an instant.
"He's Mo Yutang, right, Seventeen?"
Every word he pronounced was very light and light, but it made Rong Qiao, who was originally pulling the duck leg, stop moving.
Her expression changed slightly, and her sleeves were swept by her inadvertently, and the whole plate of roast duck fell to her feet, and the juice splashed on her crescent-white embroidered shoes, printing and dyeing a little stain, like white rice paper stained with muddy yellow soil, piercing her eyes, and looking very uncomfortable.
However, she didn't mind this, she minded the cold man in front of her, he actually mentioned that person in front of her again and again.
Couldn't he not mention that man? Why did he have to bring up the man in front of her, to tear open her wound and sprinkle a layer of salt on it?
Her bright eyes were gradually covered with a layer of white mist, and just like that, she looked at Gong Huangjue with grief and indignation. Then she glared at him angrily, ready to leave, and no longer paid attention to Gong Huangjue.
But he clasped her wrist with his backhand and didn't let her go.
She turned her head, her voice cold. "Let go."
Gong Huangjue looked at her stubbornly and did not let go of his hand.
Rong Qiao repeated, and the timbre became colder. "Let go." She lengthened the end note, the light in her eyes began to become sharp, and the cold arrow, through her clear eyes, was projected into Gong Huangjue's deep and unfathomable dark pupils.
Rao is like this, Gong Huangjue still didn't let go of his hand, a light that couldn't be seen clearly flew out of the corner of his eyes, and the cold and hard lip line was cruelly hooked.
When Rong Qiao saw him like this, she had lost her patience, and her cold eyes, two clusters of soaring flames, flew up, imprinting her eyes red.
"Gong Huangjue, this girl orders you to let go, let go, let go of me!"
Her voice was raised, her eyes narrowed slightly, and a dangerous dark light shimmered.
Gong Huangjue was still like this, he didn't move at all, and the force on Rong Qiao's wrist increased by three points.
His move completely angered Rong Qiao.
The palm of his hand inherited Gong Huangjue's inexplicable anger, which made Rong Qiao annoyed. Originally, he was very wrong to mention that person's name in front of her, and now he still wants to lose his temper with her, so she can't bear it.
