Chapter 33 The lady's cooking is so delicious
After He Yunxiao called He Yuanhao, he immediately rushed to tell Sister Jiang the good news.
"Madam! Madam! We succeeded!"
Pushing open the door of Jiang Wuyou's room, the first thing He Yunxiao saw was a table full of dishes. The gentle and virtuous Sister Jiang sat quietly at the table, chasing away non-existent mosquitoes.
When she saw He Yunxiao, she smiled and said, "Xiao'er, have you eaten yet?"
He Yunxiao entered the room, closed the door, and strode towards Jiang Wuyou.
He opened his arms and took the beauty into his arms.
"How do you know I haven't eaten?"
Jiang Wuyou smiled and said, "You have been busy outside all day. No matter whether you have eaten or not, I have to prepare it for you."
He Yunxiao held Jiang Wuyou's shoulders, stared into her big and gentle eyes and said, "Madam, although I am busy outside, I am thinking about the 'food' at home every day."
Jiang Wuyou listened to Qing's words and said, "You must be hungry, then hurry up... um... um..."
…
Over the Hou Mansion, the cold and warm air surged, one cloud pressed on top of the other, the water and milk blended together, forming rain clouds. It was going to rain, but it didn't. There was more water vapor between the sky and the earth. In the continuous rain, everyone was
Get moist.
Frost condenses on the cold leaves, and the frost gathers into dew. The dew cuts across the green leaves and drips onto the ground, making a large area wet.
…
He Yunxiao had dinner at Nanzhu's wife's place in Linxuan Palace, but now he was devouring it crazily in front of Sister Jiang.
Jiang Wuyou pursed her moist lips and looked at He Yunxiao distressedly.
"Slow down, eat slowly. Come on, have a drink of water."
"Yeah." He Yunxiao took the teacup handed over by Jiang Wuyou, drank it all in one gulp, and continued to devour it.
He Yunxiao had little faith in his life, and his morals and bottom line were very flexible, but "not letting others down" was one of the few things he insisted on.
So he eats soft things but not hard things, so he is most afraid of women crying, so he must want them all.
"My wife's cooking is so delicious."
He Yunxiao's mouth was stuffed with something, and he couldn't speak clearly. Being able to eat two meals in a short time was all due to the Soul-Eating Pill. With the blessing of this thing, not only is his vitality strong, but he can eat and digest faster than ordinary people.
Much faster. Without the Soul-Eating Pill, He Yunxiao really didn't know how to face the expectant Sister Jiang.
He Yunxiao might as well have died if he directly said to Sister Jiang, "Have I eaten at another woman's place?"
After scanning the food on the table, He Yunxiao rubbed his belly and said with a smile: "Madam, Meng Qingqian successfully faked his death. From now on, you will be free."
Jiang Wuyou smiled and nodded, then looked to the north, "Xiao'er, is there any news about my parents?"
He Yunxiao was stunned and said hurriedly: "Madam, don't panic, I will urge Li Qingmeng later. By the way, Li Qingmeng came to the Hou Mansion today to discuss when the He family's army will send troops."
Jiang Wuyou asked doubtfully: "Shouldn't the eldest princess personally handle such a big matter?"
He Yunxiao didn't know how to explain it, so he directly told Sister Jiang that Li Qingmeng was Meng Qingqian?
Don't...
No matter how many times Mengbao’s identity is discovered...
In short, I can't be the one who discovered her...
To let her know that I've been teasing her... she's not allowed to cut me in half with a knife?
"Well, the eldest princess should have asked this in person, but Li Qingmeng's visit is about the same as Meng Qingqian's visit."
Jiang Wuyou nodded, and then said slightly strangely: "Xiao'er, why don't you go with her to find your father?"
He Yunxiao: It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s that I can’t. Mengbao and I met my father together, and Mengbao showed his true colors on the spot.
"Um, why should I accompany her to find my father?"
Jiang Wuyou said: "It is not an easy thing to ask dad to send troops for the eldest princess."
…
In the study room of the Hou Mansion.
Meng Qingqian sat in the upper seat, He Yuanhao sat in the lower seat, and Zhang Jingxian stood behind He Yuanhao.
Among the three, Meng Qingqian had an embarrassed smile on his face, while He Yuanhao and Zhang Jingxian had serious faces.
Meng Qingqian originally wanted to show her kindness to He Yunxiao's parents, but no matter how "kind" she was, both of them had expressionless faces. In fact, the more she smiled, the more serious the other person became.
This time, Meng Qingqian didn't know what to do.
Meng Qingqian thought of a topic, starting with today's assassination.
"Does the General know about the assassination of the palace today?"
He Yuanhao said: "Wuyou mentioned it when she came home today. She said that although there was an accident in the palace, it was in good order. No one present was injured. The eldest princess must be fine as well."
Meng Qing smiled slightly and said: "Actually, I died in that assassination."
He Yuanhao:???
Zhang Jingxian:???
He Yuanhao laughed and said: "Hahaha, Your Highness is telling a joke. If Your Highness dies in the afternoon, then who will be in front of me?"
Meng Qingqian smiled and took a sip of tea, "Maybe he is an innocent soul."
He Yuanhao's eyes narrowed, "There are not only 10,000 but also 3,000 innocent souls of the Yan Kingdom who died at my hands. Your Highness, please don't make fun of me."
Meng Qingqian said: "I am indeed not dead yet, but in the eyes of most people, I have been poisoned and died without treatment."
"Including Han Wenxin?"
"Including. Also includes wealthy families from all over the Qi Kingdom, and - Emperor Yan."
He Yuanhao said seriously: "Why did Your Highness come to visit late at night, and why did you tell this old minister?"
Meng Qingqian did not say it directly, but said meaningfully: "Because we are a family. In the face of a powerful enemy, we should share joys and sorrows, advance and retreat together."
He Yuanhao is not a fool. When Meng Qingqian proposed to marry on behalf of Nanzhu, he guessed what His Highness meant. The Wu Qinghou Mansion was established only a short time ago and has not been passed down to the second generation, so it has a weak foundation and weak connections.
.The only strength is that the current Marquis Wu Qing has 120,000 elite soldiers, who can advance and attack, retreat and defend, and can kill the enemy and rebel.
Who is the "big enemy"? He Yuanhaoqing. Prime Minister Han Wenxin and Meng Qingqian have been fighting for several years. They lost more and won less, and they were retreating steadily. They are far from being called "big enemies".
"I can't understand what His Highness said." He Yuanhao rejected Meng Qingqian's temptation.
He Yuanhao is a good martial artist, but he is not a reckless man. A true reckless man is like Zheng Laoer of Luoyueguan. His official rank is getting lower and lower year by year. He Yuanhao can get to the second rank of general, which shows that he is quite capable.
The current situation is unclear, and it is obviously not a wise choice to fall in love with the eldest princess. Even if she "promises" to marry him.
Everyone must understand the leader's promises, and don't take them too seriously. It's best if you can deliver on them, and if you can't, it's as if they don't exist.
Meng Qingqian frowned and said: "General, Xiaoyue will be a member of the He family in the future. You can't bend your elbows outward and help outsiders instead of helping the family."
He Yuanhao said with a smile: "If His Highness has such a heart, I am willing to do everything for His Highness. I will submit the betrothal gift list to the Ministry of Etiquette tomorrow to see if the Ministry of Rites agrees? Then find a good and auspicious day to invite His Highness to the door with great fanfare."
Meng Qingqian cursed secretly: This old fox seems to have made up his mind. If I don't enter the He family's house, he will not use his troops, horses or food.
Meng Qingqian was thinking about Nanzhu, so naturally it was impossible to enter the gate of He Mansion. Let alone entering the gate of He Mansion, even the gift list for the betrothal gift could not be passed by the Ministry of Rites. The passing of the gift list meant that the engagement process had started. In this way,
Come on, it’s actually to compete with Nan Zhu for a man.
Moreover, after the gift list is approved by the Ministry of Etiquette, the matter of her marriage cannot be hidden, and it will be known to the whole world. The eldest princess will not be able to touch the jade seal when she gets married. If she cannot touch the jade seal, she is clearly telling her younger brothers, "There is no future with me.
I will be overthrown immediately." By that time, the power that the Meng family had finally built up was falling apart again.
Faced with Meng Qingqian's coercion and inducement, He Yuanhao's response strategy was very simple - don't let go of the eagle when you see the rabbit.
