The girl behind him conjured up a strip of cloth from nowhere, tied it in front of her eyes, and quickly covered her beautiful eyes.
"what you do?"
Jun Muxi frowned in confusion.
"Said I hurt my eye."
She responded in a low voice, gropingly grabbing Jun Muxi's warm palm and wrapping it tightly into her own catkin.
"Why eyes?"
"Tsk, are you a Teletubbies? Why are there so many problems..."
The two were whispering when they heard Qiao Xiaoxiao speak again:
"It's really the third sister. Your Highness, it's the third sister. The third sister didn't come back home last night. The eldest sister and I were about to go out to look for her. The prince's people came and said that the third sister had an old illness. Third sister, do you have anything?
What's the problem? Why have I never heard of it?"
"Aha, second sister, I hurt my eyes."
Qiao Qingqing poked her head out from behind Jun Muxi. The red cloth tied behind her head made her skin look like cream.
"No, no, my girl choked on almonds and almost went to see the King of Hell. I was taking care of her all night last night, and the King never entered the bedroom!"
A honest voice sounded at the right time, and Qiao Qingqing suddenly felt that her mind went blank!
But her eyes were blocked at this time and she couldn't stop her aunt. She could only listen to her voice slowly getting choked up, and finally she sobbed softly:
"My poor girl, why can't she eat almonds..."
Qiao Qingqing felt like five thunders were hitting her head.
She knew she shouldn't have any hope for this aunt...
"I'd really like to thank you! You have no choice but to ask her?" Qiao Qingqing pinched Jun Muxi's arm, her words filled with resentment.
"It's you who keeps calling me 'aunt'. I didn't know that she wouldn't be able to take over the throne..."
"Find an opportunity to send her away, otherwise you and I will fall in love sooner or later...well..."
As Qiao Qingqing spoke, Jun Muxi covered her lips, and her unobstructed words were blocked in her throat.
At the same time, a soft voice sounded in her ears:
"Third sister, how can you choke on almonds? I heard that the disease of not being able to eat almonds was brought from the mother's womb, but the eldest sister remembers that your favorite in the past was almond cake..."
The speaker is none other than Qiao Lianyi.
She glanced at Jun Muxi defensively, then pulled Qiao Qingqing into her arms with a strong tug, "Has someone poisoned Third Sister? Your Majesty needs to find out!"
"Poison?" Jun Muxi's voice was stern, "Don't worry, young lady, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."
"Humph, it's best for the prince to give an explanation to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although the third sister is a concubine, if anything goes wrong, I, Qiao Lianyi, will be the first to let him go!"
Qiao Lianyi's voice was soft and soft, filled with inherent majesty and oppression, which suddenly made the surrounding atmosphere extremely cold.
Even my aunt stopped sobbing.
Qiao Qingqing was complaining in her heart, who knows? What could have been resolved with a break, suddenly caused her aunt to cause such a big disturbance...
Now, Qiao Lianyi must have thought that Jun Muxi was dissatisfied with the emperor's marriage and was holding a grudge, so he wanted to get rid of her as a concubine to relieve his hatred...
"Aha, eldest sister, it's not my brother Xi's fault for this. It's my own greed. If it hadn't been for the prince's rescue, I would have farted a long time ago... I wouldn't have survived long ago..."
"Brother Xi?"
The prince's voice sounded, with a hint of doubt.
He raised his chin arrogantly, his eyes rested on the clasped hands of Qiao Qingqing and Jun Muxi, and his face darkened!
"Uncle Emperor, my father has given me full responsibility for the Double Ninth Festival expedition. It's rare for us to gather together like this today. How about we find an Accord, have a drink and discuss related matters by the way?"
Qiao Qingqing panicked and held Jun Muxi's hand tightly tightly.
She prayed devoutly in her heart, "Don't agree, don't agree..."
I thought that Jun Muxi had an arrogant personality and would flatly refuse. Who would have thought that this guy actually replied with two words in a provocative tone, "Okay!"
"Then please, uncle."
A gust of cool wind blew by, blowing Qiao Qingqing's broken hair on her temples. She carefully analyzed the footsteps to make sure that the prince was gone, and then she stretched out her small fist and hammered Jun Muxi's arm:
"Oh, what are you doing~"
Jun Muxi's voice slowly became gloomy, "Why, you have been given a marriage to this king, and you have no words to face your prince brother?"
"...That's not the case!"
"Then why are you covering your eyes?"
As he spoke, he roughly pulled off the red cloth from Qiao Qingqing's face.
Qiao Qingqing said "Ah", and after adapting to the light, Jun Muxi turned around, leaving her with an indifferent back.
"Hey, brother, don't leave. Just listen to my excuses..."
When the group of people arrived at Yage, Qiao Qingqing felt that the prince had opened a big hole all over her body.
She hid behind Jun Muxi uncomfortably, and heard the prince speak leisurely:
"Sister Qiao, I was very moved by your remarks a few days ago. I thought it would take some time for you to get out of a relationship, but today it seems that I am overthinking it."
That tone was enough to make Jun Muxi listen to all the things Qiao Qingqing did in admiring him in the past.
Qiao Qingqing didn't dare to look at him, so she could only hold Jun Muxi's arm and said angrily:
"Are you unhappy that I have come out? Or are you unwilling to accept that the spare fish in the Neptune's fish pond has escaped?"
Her words came out of her mouth, and no one understood what she meant, so there was a moment of silence.
At this moment, the door of the Accord was pushed open, and Qiao Qianqian stood at the door covered in dust, glanced around, and blessed her body respectfully:
"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince, I have met His Highness the Second Prince, and I have met the Prince."
Good guy, Jun Muxi is an elder, but this woman is the last to pay homage?
Qiao Qingqing immediately pulled her face, raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiao Qianqian, "Hey, what brought you here?"
Qiao Qianqian looked back and said, unwilling to be outdone, "I'm here to give the second sister a cloak."
As she spoke, she unfolded the cloak in her hand and put it on Qiao Xiaoxiao's body.
After doing this, Qiao Qianqian raised her voice again, "Second sister, my grandfather said that when you get married in the next year, she will give you one-third of the family property as a dowry!"
"One-third of the family fortune?"
Qiao Lianyi and Jun Sumo looked at each other and covered their mouths involuntarily!
"Don't worry, eldest sister. My grandfather said that when eldest sister gets married, he will also contribute one-third of the family property."
Having said this, Qiao Qianqian proudly raised her chin to Qiao Qingqing.
Are you waiting for her here?
Qiao Qingqing immediately understood!
According to the book, Qiao Qianqian's maternal grandfather was the richest man in Kyoto. When Qiao Lianyi married Qiao Xiaoxiao, he spent two-thirds of his family property.
However, all this is the prince's plan.
He had already bribed Qiao Qianqian's maternal grandfather's family, with the purpose of using a high dowry to arouse Qiao Qingqing's vanity.
And Qiao Qingqing really fell into the trap and showed her face to Jun Muxi. This forced Jun Muxi to use the money from the gold mine and hired her to the Prime Minister's Mansion, forcing the Prime Minister's Mansion to prepare a valuable gift for her.
dowry.
It was also the eve of the Double Ninth Festival, so the use of gold mines was a temporary move.
Since Jun Muxi's number of soldiers had more than doubled, the imperial salary could not sustain such a huge expenditure on raising troops, so the prince followed the clues and discovered Junmuxi's gold mine far away in northern Xinjiang.
