"Qiao Chu, I'm apologizing to you because I'm giving you face..." As soon as the eldest prince's words came out of his mouth, Zhao Xiang knew that something was going to happen.
Although I really hope that the eldest prince commits suicide, in front of so many people, I still have to help him smooth things over... otherwise if the news goes back to the emperor, I will despise myself again.
Zhao Xiang quickly interrupted: "Mrs. Chen, my eldest brother also wanted to hunt for a good tiger skin and give it to Mr. Dongfang as a gift to celebrate his adoption of his adopted son... You see, it's because he doesn't know you...
…”
Zhao Jing was interrupted. Although he was unhappy, he could still tell the difference between good and bad. He knew that Zhao Xiang was speaking for him, so he snorted and said nothing.
Qiao Chu looked at Zhao Xiang: "Since your eldest brother is the eldest prince, you should be the fifth prince, right? And this, Zhao Jiu, are you the ninth prince? Really?"
The two princes present were immediately scratching their heads in embarrassment: It felt uncomfortable to be exposed like this.
But Qiao Chu looked at Zhao Jiu and continued: "The current Ninth Prince is not called Zhao Jiu, but he is the ninth. You are His Royal Highness, right?"
His Highness the Crown Prince was very embarrassed, especially when he thought of the various reactions that Qiao Xiaofu might have after learning his identity, he felt uneasy and didn't know how to deal with it.
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still nodded and said in a sincere and apologetic tone: "Please Mrs. Chen Haihan, I am out of town and it is really inconvenient to reveal my identity."
The eldest prince, Zhao Jing, sneered coldly: "What's the matter? Lao Jiugui is the current prince, and you still have to apologize to a peasant woman? What have you done wrong? Don't degrade the majesty of my heavenly family!"
Prince: "..." Brother, please stop talking, okay?
"I understand..." Qiao Chu nodded and waved his hand, "I won't interrupt you brothers while you talk. I'm going back to the house."
He actually turned around and left!
When Chen Qingshan saw his wife's attitude, he turned around and left.
The Xu brothers were in a dilemma.
I wanted to leave, but I was too embarrassed to leave.
If you don't leave, why stay here?
Xu Jingye looked at Xu Jiye, and Xu Jiye looked at Xu Jingye.
In the end, Xu Jiye slapped his head: "I made an appointment with Qiao Xiaofu to reconcile the accounts today, so I went over there to reconcile the accounts with her."
Xu Jingye cursed in his heart: You little bastard! You didn’t know how to take your eldest brother with you even if you made excuses. You left your eldest brother alone. This younger brother of yours is so righteous!
Xu Jingye said, "I don't know where Chun Niang has gone. I'm going to serve tea to the three of you."
Zhao Xiang curled his lips: As soon as the eldest brother was about to come in, his guards cleared out all the irrelevant people in the house. Naturally, Chun Niang, Ah Qiu, Man Xiong and others were also invited to the yard next door.
Xu Jingye entered the kitchen and took a long breath while boiling water to make tea.
He finally felt the feeling of his brother breathing a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but sympathize with Xu Jiye for a moment.
In the empty courtyard, the guards placed Zhao Jing's bamboo lounge chair on the ground and quietly exited the courtyard.
The three royal brothers looked at each other.
Or Zhao Xiang suddenly smiled: "Brother, why did you suddenly come to this small town of Xing'an County? Could it be that your father sent you here?"
You came here secretly! Father must not know!
Zhao Jing snorted coldly: "I heard that Mr. Dongfang has adopted an adopted son, and I happened to be nearby, so I thought I would stop by and have a look, but I didn't expect that His Highness the Crown Prince and his fifth brother are both here."
You and Lao Jiu can come, why can’t I come?!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sighed: "Of course eldest brother can come. Our most important thing now is to treat eldest brother's injuries as soon as possible, right?"
These words successfully diverted Zhao Jing's attention, and Zhao Jing's complexion turned even paler.
I heard from my secret guard's investigation that this Qiao Chu is quite miraculous and can quickly heal people's injuries. Others would have to lie down for several months after being injured. After treating Qiao Chu, they can get out of bed and jump around the next day!
But now that I have offended Qiao Chu, and Qiao Chu refuses to treat his injuries, if I find an outside doctor to see a doctor, I will have to stay in hospital for at least several months!
Now is the hot time when several brothers are competing for each other. If I delay for a few months, I might end up getting nothing...
"Prince, you have a good relationship with that Qiao Chu. Why don't you help your elder brother and talk to Qiao Chu and ask her to treat me?" Zhao Jing said to Zhao Jiu without any respect.
Zhao Jiu sighed again: "I offended that Qiao Chu just two days ago, and now I have no face to sell in front of her..."
Somehow, when he heard that Zhao Jiu had offended Qiao Chu, Zhao Jing felt secretly happy in his heart: Great! Lao Jiu came early and didn't get any favors!
Zhao Jing said, "This Qiao Chu doesn't take the Tian family seriously!"
Then Zhao Jing looked at Zhao Xiang: "The fifth brother came early, so he should have a good relationship with Qiao Chu and his wife, right? Can you help me make peace?"
Zhao Xiang looked indifferently: "I was seriously injured by being kicked by their horse, so I moved in by accident. Now they really want me to move out, but they are embarrassed to say it."
Zhao Jing: "..." So the secret guard said that you all live in Qiao Chu's house, but in fact you are all here shamelessly?!
This world belongs to the Zhao family, and all the subjects in the world are subjects of the Zhao family.
You go to live in the homes of your own subjects. Not only do your subjects treat you with great courtesy and respect, but they actually dislike you in every way?
Even so, are you still refusing to leave?!
Are you crazy? Or am I crazy?!
Zhao Jing felt that his head hurt even more... He always felt that something was wrong, and for a moment he didn't know what to believe!
"So you would rather see me suffer alone than help me talk to Qiao Chu?" Zhao Jing said angrily with a cold face.
Zhao Jiu sighed: "Brother, this Qiao Chu has a weird temper. Aren't you afraid that after she reluctantly agrees, she will poison you during the treatment process?"
Zhao Jing: "She dares!"
"..." Zhao Jiu and Zhao Xiang didn't say anything, they just looked at Zhao Jing with pity.
Zhao Jing was inexplicably afraid again: Qiao Chu could just leave the three princes and princes in the courtyard without asking anything, so what else could he dare not do?
If he said that, he really couldn't ask Qiao Chu to cure his illness...if he couldn't be cured, he would have no future...
Forget it, just slow down, go find a doctor somewhere else... at least save your life!
So Zhao Jing pretended to sigh: "Forget it, since there is nothing you can do, I can only accept my fate and go outside to find a doctor."
Zhao Jing left, and Zhao Xiang and Zhao Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Jingye brought the tea out and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Zhao Jing leaving. Then he realized later that his actions were inappropriate. Was he infected by that little bastard Xu Jiye?!
Fortunately, Zhao Xiang and Zhao Jiu just made such a small move. They didn't blame Xu Jingye. Instead, they patted Xu Jingye on the shoulder: "I won't drink this tea. The tea you made is not as delicious as Chun Niang's. You
Let’s go and rest.”
Xu Jingye watched the two Tianhuang nobles return to the house: Comparing my craftsmanship with that of the cook, how about your royal education?
