Cute Beauty’s Romantic Affairs - C122
In the capital city, a thousand miles away.
“Right Minister, did you really not inform the Emperor about the drought and chaos in Ming City?” The book stood there with a frown on its face. At this moment, the paper in his sleeve was like a hot potato, he didn’t want to take it, but he didn’t want to.
The old man sitting in the hall still stared at the flickering candle flame with his turbid eyes. In the end, he asked with a hoarse voice, “Is the King of the Southwest still in the palace?”
Qian Zhongshu didn’t know why he suddenly asked this question, but he obediently replied, “Today, I saw the emperor and the King of the Southwest chatting happily in the imperial garden …”
“The King of the Southwest only has one son.”
When the Right Prime Minister said this, money made his hair stand on end and he was covered in cold sweat.
The King of the Southwest only had one son, who was sent to the capital for the empress dowager to raise after he was six years old. On the surface, he was the son of the emperor. However, everyone knew that this was just a reason. A reason to leave the protons behind in broad daylight.
After the previous Emperor passed away, there was an invasion from the north where a prince had ascended to the throne. After the second prince had ascended to the throne, countless of his brothers had died, leaving only the younger brother of one mother and one brother alive.
The emperor had even left his younger brother’s only son in the capital.
The Right Prime Minister’s sigh was due to the fact that the Prince of the Southwest had died two months ago.
The King of the Southwest rejected the Emperor’s offer to mourn the Crown Prince in person, and took Princess Gu Lun to the capital. When he came this time, the emperor was like a hedgehog as he summoned all the troops from the outskirts of the capital back. However, the King of the Southwest only brought a few relatives.
On that day, when the King of the Southwest was holding such a position, the empress dowager barged in and held both mother and son in her arms, crying bitterly. No one dared to look up at the emperor’s face.
When he was the Second Prince, everyone said that he was temperamental and suspicious, and when he ascended the throne, he became even more suspicious.
The court officials all kneeled down, no one dared to look at the three of them, but then the King of the Southwest expressed his sorrow at their son’s early death, crying and saying that he only had a pair of sons and daughters, now that the son had passed away early, he could only place all his hopes on his daughter, this time bringing Princess Duolun to the capital to find a son-in-law.
“That’s the King of the Southwest …”
The Right Prime Minister got up and walked to the window. Even though it was already late at night, the heat outside was still very strong. It didn’t seem like it was going to rain at all.
Hearing this, the Monarch of the Southwest was the only prince who could compete with the emperor in the imperial court. If it wasn’t for the empress dowager, it was uncertain who would sit on the throne now. The first thing the Emperor did after he ascended the throne was to massacre all the ministers who had supported the King of the Southwest.
As an old man who had walked over at that time, Qian Zhong didn’t say anything and already understood what the Right Premier meant.
The King of the Southwest definitely didn’t come as simple as it seemed. Even if it was, the Emperor probably wanted him to come back without a return.
The city of Mincheng just so happened to be at the place of the King of the Southwest.
When night fell, Jiaoniang lay on his bed, tossing and turning. It was unknown if he sensed Jiaoniang’s restlessness or what, but a knocking sound came from the other side of the bed. This was the signal that Jiaoniang and Ye Xuan had agreed on from the bed.
Jiaoniang bent his lower lip, and knocked back. The two of them played extremely happily.
When she finally regained her senses, the sounds of the chickens and dogs outside were extremely chaotic. Jiaoniang put on some clothes and went out to stand in the courtyard to listen intently, as if he had heard it in the village.
“What’s going on?” Ye Xuan also came out of his room. He was tall, standing by the wall with his head stretched out as he asked.
“I don’t know. There seems to be a fire. Could it be that the weather is so hot? ” Thinking about it this way, Jiaoniang also started to worry, they were all going to get burned in case they really went astray.
Ye Xuan went into the house and put on his clothes, “I’ll go out to take a look, if anything is wrong, I’ll come back to get you, you stay at home for now.”
Jiaoniang replied as he got up and put on his clothes. Wang Meihua was also woken up and asked Jiaoniang in a low voice what was going on.
Ye Xuan walked out the door towards the flames. The flames did not seem to be out of the water, but it was filled with a large number of people.
He did not walk too close, Ye Xuan found a tree and climbed up, and with a glance, he saw Bai Ling lying on the ground, the softness in his arms were scattered all over the place, and two women were surrounding him, preventing him from leaving.
“I just woke up at night and went to the toilet. From afar, I saw this woman tiptoeing with a backpack on her back. At that time, I was wondering who it was! I didn’t expect it to be you! I’m sure she wants to run away as soon as the truth is revealed! ”
When Ye Xuan went back to tell them about this, his spirits were lifted. He did not expect that Wu Sinan’s cover would actually blow up the fish.
By the time Jiaoniang arrived at the scene, there were already women on top of her body, beating her up and cursing at her, “Who are you trying to seduce, you little b * stard! “If it wasn’t for you, your mother, being so tired every day?”
Bai Ling had never seen such a show of force before, he screamed as he pushed the woman on top of him and bent his legs to kick her off, but who knew that he would attract even more people to beat her up, ripping off her clothes.
Jiaoniang looked on coldly and quickly ordered Ye Xuan to call the patriarch over. If this group of people were not taught well, who knows what kind of ugly things they would do.
But before Ye Xuan could leave, a furious roar came from the distance. The Patriarch did not even put on his clothes and rushed over with a torch in hand. When Bai Ling saw the person following behind him, a glimmer of hope flashed past his eyes.
Clan leader, save me! I was wronged! ”
“You’ve already stolen the goods, yet you still dare to cry out your grievances. Where do you think you’re going with all these things?”
“You can’t say it? You’re still saying that you don’t want to run away? ” Spring Fragrance slapped Bai Ling hard on the face, causing him to fall to the ground. The woman who did farm work everyday did not know how to take action. Bai Ling’s beautiful face immediately turned red and swollen.
Jiaoniang noticed that the face of the Patriarch’s youngest son, Lin Kang, was a little strange. She would only glance at him a few times when she had nothing to do. When he heard Spring Flower Nun say that Bai Ling wanted to escape with all his belongings, Lin Kang’s expression turned angry and resentful. However, when he saw that Bai Ling’s face was swollen, he felt his heart ache.
Jiaoniang retreated a few steps without making a sound. She did not have a deep impression of Lin Kang, but she had heard that he was studying at a school in the county. How could he be related to Bai Ling?
But if it was said that he had a crush on Bai Ling, he couldn’t possibly hate her just because he heard that she wanted to escape, right?
The Patriarch was pulled off the bed by Lin Kang, and he was not even dressed properly. When he saw the mess, his head started to hurt, “Chun Xiang Niang, hurry and get up, what do you think you are doing?!”
Spring Fragrance was only concerned with fighting with Bai Ling, she would never have thought that her clothes would be ripped as well. When she looked down, her face was flushed red, and she shyly got up from Bai Ling’s body.
“Then Patriarch, what do you think we should do with this little hoof?”
The patriarch was in a difficult position as he looked at Bai Ling who was lying on the ground and shivering.
