After saying that, she stood up and saluted Jun Sumo.
"I think it's inappropriate."
Upon seeing this, Jun Muxi immediately vetoed the proposal, "Qingqing should have been exiled. It is best not to expose your whereabouts until you are cleared by the Holy Spirit."
Having said this, he said in a persuasive manner, "My dear, the safest way is to hide in my palace and wait for the opportunity."
Qiao Qingqing was originally moved by his confession, but when she heard Jun Muxi say this, she immediately grew resentful.
She sat up slowly, then raised a smile and stared at Jun Muxi for a moment without saying a word.
Just look at him quietly and smile.
Jun Sumo wanted to respond, but Qiao Lianyi shook his hand and naturally shut up.
Jun Muxi's originally solemn and handsome face slowly became confused.
"Qingqing...what do you think?"
The suddenly lowered voice made me lose my confidence.
"Your Majesty."
Qiao Qingqing smiled deliberately, and her distant address made Jun Muxi look panicked:
"Well, you..."
"If the girl remembers it correctly, not long ago, the prince was eager to drive the girl to Northern Xinjiang, as if out of sight and out of mind. Why did he suddenly tell the girl that she could hide in the prince's mansion?"
Jun Muxi choked on his words for a moment.
"Oh~ I understand. At first, the prince must have been afraid of ruining the honor of women, but now there is a mistress in the house. The prince wants me to serve your precious princess, oh?"
"Qiao Qingqing, do you have to be so sinister?"
"Your Majesty, please calm down, the daughters of the people don't dare!"
Qiao Qingqing feigned fear and lowered her head slightly, "A common girl has stolen the title of 'Third Miss of the Prime Minister's Palace' from the future princess. If she goes to your backyard again, a common girl will be afraid of being poisoned to death!"
She deliberately emphasized the last two words.
Jun Sumo heard that the atmosphere was not right, and secretly lowered his head to cover the smile on his lips and said:
"Miss Qiao can think about it, but once she enters the imperial uncle's residence, it will be inconvenient for Su Mo to interfere with the girl's safety."
His meaning couldn't be clearer:
The partisanship between the prince and Jun Muxi is open. If she, Qiao Qingqing, chooses Jun Muxi and Jun Sumo interferes with her safety, she will be openly opposing the prince.
But if she draws a clear line with Jun Muxi, even if Jun Sumo protects her with all his life, he is just repaying her for rescuing Qiao Lianyi, and it does not involve party disputes.
Thinking of this, Qiao Qingqing firmly agreed:
"No need to think about it, brother, please accept my little sister's bow!"
Jun Sumo nodded slightly, "Get up, little sister."
Jun Muxi's entire face was extremely dark!
Qiao Qingqing felt an inexplicable secret joy from the bottom of her heart.
Looking at Jun Sumo's leaving figure, she also stood up and whispered to Jun Muxi:
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I am protecting myself wisely. Think about it, what did I get in exchange for being unreserved to you?"
"What do you want me to do to satisfy you?" Jun Muxi gritted his teeth.
"You want me?" Qiao Qingqing reached out and rubbed the man's cheek.
Jun Muxi snorted coldly and turned his head to the side awkwardly.
"Jun Muxi, I, Qiao Qingqing, will not be a concubine. Not only that, I will not allow my husband to take a concubine. In addition, he must keep his integrity as pure as jade and cannot be contaminated by other women, because I have mysophobia.
"
Jun Muxi had a cold handsome face and said vaguely, "I told you, I didn't touch her."
"That's great, it means you have a chance to chase me!"
Qiao Qingqing's face was filled with joy, and it was clear from her heart.
She nodded solemnly, "Well, let's do this. You go back and drive away the butterfly next to you. After you finish this, we can talk about other things."
As she said this, she hummed a tune happily and jumped into the bedroom.
Have a good night's sleep.
At dawn the next day, the soldiers returned home with a full load, carrying several red-footed boobies that they had plundered from the Japanese pirate ships.
Led by the red-footed boobies, everyone avoided the whirlpool, passed three small islands, and finally reached the shore.
After dealing with the superstition of the "Ghost Island" and rescuing other girls that the patriarch later abducted from the market, the group returned to Beijing in triumph.
The people of Kyoto welcomed him out of the suburbs enthusiastically.
Qiao Qingqing and Qiao Lianyi were sitting in the carriage, lifting the curtains from time to time, each looking at the man sitting on his horse with a look of admiration on his face.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are worthy of being the 'Yi Nanping' I rescued, it just brings its own traffic!"
Qiao Qingqing was drooling at Jun Muxi's back. In a daze, she caught a glimpse of a pair of familiar figures out of the corner of her eye.
Hmm? Qiao Xiaoxiao and Qiao Qianqian?
She immediately held Qiao Lianyi's arm and said, "Sister, the snake and scorpion sisters are here."
Qiao Lianyi is a person who cannot hide his emotions on his face.
She glared at Qiao Xiaoxiao with resentment and fiercely pulled down the curtain, immediately blocking their sight.
On the other side, Qiao Xiaoxiao's entire little face had already turned the color of pig liver with anger:
"She actually returned safely!"
Qiao Qian frowned and hissed, "Second sister, have you seen the girl next to eldest sister? Why do I look so like that bitch Qiao Qingqing?"
"How is that possible? Qiao Qingqing has been burned beyond recognition a long time ago," Qiao Xiaoxiao sneered, "Even if she escapes by chance, how can she, a refugee, dare to return to Kyoto openly? I think you are stupid, right?"
Qiao Qianqian still looked suspicious.
Qiao Xiaoxiao waved his hand impatiently:
"Okay, even if she comes back secretly, the first person she wants to find is the aunt who has no reputation. That woman is cleaning the toilet bowl at the Prime Minister's Mansion now. Let's go back and wait to see if she will come.
"
As soon as she mentioned her aunt, Qiao Qianqian began to worry about another thing:
"Second sister, my father took advantage of the prince to transfer the elite and took over the bride price given to the woman by the prince. Now that the prince returns, will he come to ask for an explanation?"
Qiao Xiaoxiao raised her lips mockingly:
"Your Majesty secretly mobilized troops to rescue people in southern Xinjiang, but the Holy Emperor has long since caught him. It's only a matter of time before his military power is withdrawn. How can he still have the ability to protect his dowry gift after his military power has been withdrawn?"
Hearing this, Qiao Qianqian felt relieved:
"That's right. He was originally going to marry the new third sister. It's natural for his father to take over the betrothal gift. Hmm, when his military power is taken away, will he still regret it?"
However, the two of them drove slowly to the side, and when they arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, they actually saw Qiao Qingqing!
"Second sister...she...she..."
Qiao Qianqian pointed towards the door of the house with trembling arms. In the sunshine, Qiao Qingqing's smart and refined face smiled particularly brightly!
In that look, is there any trace of escaping from the fire?
Qiao Xiaoxiao didn't catch it in one breath and almost broke the brocade handkerchief in his hand!
But she was the future crown princess after all, and Mrs. Green Tea had taught her how to be patient since she was a child, so she didn't say much.
On the contrary, Qiao Qianqian took advantage of Jun Muxi and Jun Sumo to leave, hurriedly jumped out of the carriage and roared:
"Qiao Qingqing, you fugitive, how do you get the nerve to come back to my Prime Minister's house?"
