This man has a clear face. Even though there is a ferocious whip mark on his face, he still does not look ugly. Coupled with the fierceness and stubbornness in his eyes at this moment, he is like a little beast trapped in a cage.
Be prepared to attack those who approach him.
"I can give you a chance for revenge." Mingruo took out the bottle containing the poisonous insects.
Mingruo wanted to put the bottle in front of Hesheng, but Si Haochen's hand on her waist didn't move at all, and Mingruo could only stay still.
Mingruo wanted to take the domineering role this time, but her boyfriend didn't cooperate at all. In order to cover up her embarrassment, she had to give the bottle to the third grader.
"As long as you swallow this Gu, you can control Luo Ling." Mingruo Youyou said.
Through the moonlight that fell from the window into the room, He Sheng could clearly see the bright red Gu worm in the bottle - he had seen Princess Luo Ling's natal Gu, which was a jade-colored golden silkworm, not as big as this one.
Hesheng is not afraid of people who suddenly appear in front of him and lie to him, because he really has nothing worth worrying about.
He held the bottle containing the worm tightly: "What do you want?"
"I want..." Mingruo thought for a moment and said in a very light tone, "She is not having a good time..."
A smile spread across Hesheng's lips, he uncorked the bottle and swallowed the poison inside - if that was all, he could definitely do it.
Mingruo winked at Si Haochen, and Si Haochen immediately took her away. Even though he was fast enough, Mingruo still heard the crane's groan of pain.
He did not refine this Gu worm himself. If he wanted to become the master of the Gu worm, he would have to feed it with a drop of his blood every month.
Ming Ruo came here and was a little curious about how many faces Princess Luo Ling had raised, so she asked the third grade of junior high school.
The third grade student scratched his head: "There are probably... dozens of faces..."
The third grade student pointed to the layout of the princess's mansion: "Princess Luo Ling's bedroom is in the middle. In the surrounding courtyards, the favored ones live. The rejected ones live in the miscellaneous courtyard, where they do things like wash barrels, chop firewood, etc.
Menial work."
Mingruo found that the guards at the princess mansion were not tight, so she poked her boyfriend's waist: "Let's go see what Princess Luo Ling is doing."
"It's already midnight, of course she's sleeping." Si Haochen had no interest in prying on unimportant people.
"Have you never heard of Shengge?" Princess Luo Ling raised so many faces, is it just for decoration?
Si Haochen took Mingruo away from the princess mansion, leaving the third grader of junior high school far away. He gritted his teeth and said, "Watching 'Shengge' is so boring, why not experience it for yourself, my beloved concubine?"
"No, no, no... haha..." Mingruo's back stiffened. The ancients did not deceive me - curiosity can indeed kill a cat.
The next day, Si Haochen left Huadu Wucheng with his envoys and headed all the way to the border town.
Everyone in the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple thought that Prince Yun and Princess were rushing to celebrate the New Year with the family members of the Duke's Mansion, so they did not dare to say anything more.
The boat docked at the border town wharf, and fourth cousin Su You had been waiting for a long time. He first asked his attendants to send several officials from the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple to the inn, and then took Mingruo and Si Haochen back to the general's mansion.
"How did my fourth cousin know we were arriving today?" Ming Ruo was surprised to see her cousin as soon as she docked.
"When I learned that you were leaving Huadu Wu City, I estimated that you would arrive in a day or two, so my mother asked me to come to the pier for a walk." Su You said with a smile, "I didn't expect that you only arrived this morning and you would arrive at noon.
.”
"Third aunt has also come to the border town?" Mingruo thinks that the Su family's tradition of accompanying her husband to guard the border is very good, as it saves the two places from being separated and worrying about each other.
"Mother said that if there is no woman to take care of the house, everything will fall into chaos within two months." Su You saw that the carriages and horses they brought could be used, so he made no other arrangements, "Let's go home first so that you can have some rest."
"
"Okay, let's ask my cousin to lead the way." Mingruo said with a smile.
Arriving at the General's Mansion located in the center of the border town, Mingruo felt very shocked.
Since Duke Jingguo's family has been guarding the border town for more than 20 years, the residence here is even more grand than the Duke's residence in the imperial capital.
There is a row of carved horse posts in front of the door. At the door are two stone lions as tall as one person. There are rows of bright nails on the vermilion door. There are also two guards with swords guarding the door.
Seeing Su You coming back, the guards quickly stepped forward and saluted: "Young General."
"Open the front door." Su You said.
"Yes." The main entrance of the General's Mansion is usually closed. If it were to be opened this time, it must be a distinguished guest.
In the past two days, everyone in the General's Mansion has been busy welcoming Prince Yun and Princess...
As soon as Mingruo and Si Haochen got out of the car, the guards immediately greeted him: "I will bow to Prince Yun and Princess Yun."
"No courtesy." Si Haochen raised his hand and led Mingruo into the door.
Knowing that Prince Yun and his granddaughter were on a mission to Xikang, Mrs. Su had already ordered people to clean up the yard, just waiting for Mingruo and the others to come and stay.
If Mingruo hadn't said that they had other things to do and wouldn't celebrate the New Year at home, Mrs. Su would have wanted to bring her whole family to the border town to celebrate the New Year.
Soldiers had already sent news to the house from the dock, and the third uncle and the third aunt came out to greet him.
After the ceremony, the third aunt took Mingruo to the yard prepared for her: "The old lady said early in the morning that we should tidy up the yard."
"I told my grandma that if I only stay in the house for a day or two, there is no need to clean up the yard for me." Mingruo said with a smile.
"Even if we only stay for a short time, we cannot wrong Ruo'er or neglect His Royal Highness Prince Yun." The third aunt led them to the prepared yard.
This courtyard is very much in the style of the Su family, simple and elegant.
"You guys freshen up first, I'll send someone to bring lunch." The third aunt looked at A Yuan and Shi Shi only carrying a few small luggage, "If there is anything missing, you must tell your aunt, just tell your family
Same."
"Okay, I will definitely not be polite to my aunt." Mingruo added, "I also brought some specialties from Xikang, and I will ask Shi Shi to deliver them to my aunt later."
"You kid, you still give me gifts when you come home."
"As the saying goes, it's not strange to give gifts to many people." Mingruo blinked.
"Are you talking about this 'ritual'?" The third aunt was amused by Mingruo.
"It's all the same word." Mingruo covered her mouth and snickered.
The two were chatting and joking when the housekeeper ran in hurriedly and saw the third master and third wife chatting with Prince Yun and the princess, and running around anxiously outside.
When the third aunt saw the housekeeper walking around, she couldn't help but frowned: "Su De, if you don't go to pass the food, what are you doing here?"
"Third Madam..." Butler Su looked like he was hesitating to speak.
Mingruo estimated that this housekeeper had something to report that could not be disclosed to outsiders: "Third uncle, third aunt, you go and do your work, we don't need anyone to accompany you."
The third uncle, however, had a straightforward character and frowned: "If you have anything to say, just say it, Ruo'er is not an outsider!"
"Hey." Butler Su responded, "There is a young lady outside the door, looking for General Su and saying that she is... she is... pregnant with the general's child..."
