In the dead of night, only the sound of horses' hooves and wheels could be heard outside the car.

Ji Xiaoduo leaned against the wall of the car, looking tired.

At the end of the day, she was really tired. It's just that right now, Zhao Mingxuan is sitting in the same car as her, and she can only cheer up and hold on.

Fortunately, although Zhao Mingxuan's face was not very good, he didn't say anything later, and the carriage also drove all the way to the small courtyard rented by Ji Xiaoduo.

Nothing to say all the way.

It wasn't until the carriage stopped outside the small courtyard that Zhao Mingxuan asked, "Marrying me, does it really make you feel so wronged?"

There was a small glass lamp lit in the carriage, but it was not bright.

But the yellowish light reflected on Zhao Mingxuan's face, especially his face with hard lines and clear outlines, like a beautiful sculpture under a famous craftsman.

And at this time, in addition to the suppressed anger in his eyes, there was even a little grievance.

He Zhao Mingxuan, after a famous family, inherited his son, and is now the governor of a state, and he will have a bright future in the future, young and handsome, and strong.

What else is she not satisfied with?

Before she becomes a "jade version", what else can she be a princess?

Ji Xiaoduo saw it, but he didn't open it.

This is roughly a chasm across two eras.

Women in this era are dependent on men to live, obeying their fathers at home, marrying their husbands, and following their husbands and sons. It is already good to let them have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.

Zhao Mingxuan ransomed her body, let her "try" to live freely, and solved it for her when something happened - although Ji Xiaoduo still thought that the jade version of this matter was Zhao Mingxuan's responsibility, but it was indeed considered to have helped her - from the perspective of Zhao Mingxuan, a native native, he was afraid that he had already felt that he had done his best to Ji Xiaoduo.

In fact, this can't be regarded as Zhao Mingxuan's fault, and he may not understand it.

She just lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "I didn't mean to target you, just for a while...... The mood cannot be calm. The jade version of her, I mean the original jade version, has become like that, and it is like this...... I could have been a ghost myself......"

She was dealing with Zhao Mingxuan, but when it came to this, she was still really in a complicated mood, and sighed lightly, "It always makes me feel ...... The world is too unfair to women...... Whether it's the jade version or me, it's like no matter how hard you try, you can't do what you want......

Zhao Mingxuan was originally angry, but when he heard her sincerely, he calmed down a little, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but sneer, "Innocent! People live in the world, who can really do what they want......?"

He paused.

Even if it is the Ninety-Five Supreme, how can you be free to do whatever you want?

The old man of the folk can also make his own decisions, divide the family property as he wants, and give it to which son he likes.

However, the emperor moved his mind to make a new prince, and his preferred son was "infected with a vicious disease and died".

However, the courtiers only played Tai Chi and thin mud in this regard, so that the emperor knew whose hands and feet it was, and he could only acquiesce to this conclusion.

- He's not dead yet, but the people below can't wait.

But this kind of thing is not something that Zhao Mingxuan, a courtier, can say casually.

Zhao Mingxuan changed his course: "Look at Qiu Yangzi, a cultivator, who has a strange art, but wants to take refuge in me as a guest, he must also have his embarrassment and unwillingness. ”

That's right.

Being born as a human being always has its own difficulties.

Ji Xiaoduo sighed again and turned back to Zhao Mingxuan's original question: "The one who marries, the family is also." Someone has to make me feel at home, and that's how I get married. For a maid and a concubine, it's an object, you can throw it away if you want to, you can sell it if you want to, what is it?"

In the end, it's still a big heart. Zhao Mingxuan couldn't help but sneer.

Look at Wei Zi, she is already grateful to Dade for being able to enter the door of the Liu family, and she still dares to think about his wife.

Sometimes I think this woman sees things clearly, but sometimes she is really naïve and stubborn.

No matter who she used to be, she has been a prostitute now, and even if she redeems herself, the stain will always be there.

Don't talk about him, ordinary people will not be able to marry such a woman as a wife.

Still want to be innocent and be a proper couple? It's a pipe dream.

Ji Xiaoduo smiled at him at this time, "What's more, you may not really like me." ”

Zhao Mingxuan subconsciously wanted to refute, but before the words came out, he was stunned.

What is he trying to refute?

Does he really like her?

Obviously, it was just for my brother at first, but then I was a little greedy for her body, and then I felt that it was easy to be with her, and then ......

As soon as he came down like this, he suddenly found that he had unconsciously put so much thought into this woman.

Even the elite secret guards who had trained by herself, with a total of less than twenty people, sent three of them to her side.

For the always shrewd Zhao Dagongzi, this business is simply a big loss.

Ji Xiaoduo said: "In the final analysis, it's just that you can't accept rejection, or you just feel fresh for a while." But over time, day and night, these emotions will soon disappear. ”

Zhao Mingxuan had just finished settling an account, his face turned dark, and he stared at the woman in front of him fiercely, thinking about how many pieces of meat he had to bite off to get back to his roots?

Ji Xiaoduo shuddered at his wolf-like gaze, but he still spread his hands and said calmly: "It's still the same sentence, if Lord Zhao wants to force me, I probably can't do it, but you have to ask me if I'm willing? That is a hundred unwilling, a thousand unwilling." ”

Zhao Mingxuan pointed to the car door, grinding his teeth, and his voice squeezed out from between his teeth, "Get out." ”

He was afraid that if he looked at this woman one more time, he would want to strangle her to death!

But seeing that Ji Xiaoduo didn't hesitate at all and didn't say a word of nonsense, he got out of the car quickly, and he just wanted to arrest her back and correct the law on the spot.

Zhao Mingxuan took two deep breaths before suppressing his anger back, kicked on the wall of the car, and called Hong Hu, who was driving the car outside, "Go home." ”

Although it was already late, Zhao Mingxuan couldn't sleep at all, so he simply went directly to the study.

dealt with some official business delayed today in order to catch ghosts, and the secret guard who followed Ji Xiaoduo also sent today's report to his desk.

Zhao Mingxuan was even more angry after reading it.

That gardener even went to see her in prison?

How did he get in?

What's going on in Changkang County? Can people enter the prison at will? It really should be put in order!

She even asked a gardener to take care of the house?

It's that shabby, small old yard that needs to be taken care of by a fart!

Didn't she know that he had sent someone to follow her?

This damn woman, he really should have strangled her just now!

In the end, he just fell in love with someone else, right?

A gardener, where can he compare to him? How can he ...... Was she blind before she returned to Yang?

He was getting angry when Hong Hu came in and reported with an embarrassed face that Aunt Wang had come to bring him supper.

Zhao Mingxuan's face was calm, he wanted him to rush back, but after a change of heart, he said, "Call her in." ”

Aunt Wang is a beauty given to Zhao Mingxuan by He Dadu, born as a maiko, with bright looks and a graceful figure, at this time, she can walk like a willow in the wind with a food box, graceful and graceful.

She saluted, put it in the food box, and brought out a bowl of lotus seed soup from it, "My lord is busy with business, and the concubine specially made a supper." ”

She held the celadon bowl and leaned over gently, obviously wanting to feed it to Zhao Mingxuan with her own hands.

Zhao Mingxuan waved her hand to put her down, "I have something to ask you." ”

Aunt Wang has been following Zhao Mingxuan for almost two years, and she knows his temper clearly, she can be coquettish and stupid when she can, and behave when she can't.

At this time, he obediently put the bowl aside and stood aside, "What do you want to ask?"

"When you first came to me, were you willing?" asked Zhao Mingxuan.

Aunt Wang lowered her head and smiled, with a little shyness and shyness, "Naturally, I am willing, but the concubine can't ask for it." ”

Zhao Mingxuan asked again: "Why? After all, he is just a concubine." ”

Aunt Wang said softly: "The adult is young and handsome, wise and martial, if the concubine can get a husband like this, what else can she ask for?"

Zhao Mingxuan knocked on the table, "To be honest." ”

Aunt Wang lowered her eyes, "This is the truth, the concubine is a maiko raised by the He family since childhood, and the ending is either to entertain guests or to give away." This life is already this fate. Compared with the old man like He Dadu, or the rude military man like General Li, being able to follow the adult is already a blessing from heaven for the concubine. ”

Look, that's what a normal woman thinks, right?

Zhao Mingxuan snorted coldly.

Aunt Wang only thought that she had said the wrong thing, so she was so frightened that she quickly knelt down, "My lord, the concubine shouldn't be ......."

Zhao Mingxuan stretched out his hand to pull her up, "No, it's none of your business." He exhaled, his voice softening a little, "It's dark at night, you go back and rest first." I'll have to see you later. ”

Aunt Wang was very happy and went back with a thousand thanks.

Zhao Mingxuan sat back at the desk, and while reading the documents, he touched the bowl of lotus seed soup and took a sip.

Sweet and greasy is not to the liking.

Speaking of which, what about his braised beef?
