Su Mei picked up a steamed bun and placed it on the plate in front of Tang Ning. She blinked and said, "Crab roe soup dumplings are very famous in Runzhou. How do you like them?"
Even though Tang Ning had just gone to a jewelry store to buy a veil for her to cover her charming face, the two of them sitting at a street stall still attracted frequent glances from passers-by.
Even the stall owner was complained a lot because he looked at her frequently and served the wrong dishes to the guests at other tables.
Runzhou's steamed buns were different from those Tang Ning had eaten before. The skin was as thin as paper and could be broken with a blow. It tasted fresh but not greasy. Tang Ning ate two in a row, then looked at her and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Don’t want to eat?”
Su Mei held her chin with one hand, turned her head and looked at him, and said, "I'll watch you eat."
Tangning didn't ask again. The more beautiful a woman is, the more she cares about her appearance and figure. Even Xiaoxiao knows that eating after the Wu period can easily lead to weight loss. People like her who are harmful to the country and the people are probably more cruel to themselves.
Tangning ate another bun, then looked at her and asked, "You are... a little different from before."
For other women, there is a cruel fact that some people look better without makeup than they do with carefully dressed up. If they dress up carefully, they will immediately become seductive witches.
Su Mei is such a witch. She is pretty enough without makeup. But when she puts makeup on, it will create the same effect as on the street.
Su Mei glanced at him and asked, "What's the difference?"
Tangning said truthfully, "She's even more beautiful than before."
Su Mei raised her eyebrows and said, "Does that mean she wasn't beautiful before?"
Tang Ning shook her head and said: "The beauty of the past was 'hibiscus growing out of clear water, naturally carved', it was 'natural beauty wearing neon clothes, peach blossom face without makeup'; today's beauty is 'the hills overlap, the gold shines, and the clouds on the temples are lustrous.
"The cheeks are as fragrant as the snow", which means "I am as beautiful as a rouge in the mirror, and as beautiful as a fairy overpowering all the flowers"..."
…
Su Mei gave him a roll of her eyes and said, "Are you teasing your sister?"
"I'm just telling the truth." Tangning said, "To be honest, I feel a lot of pressure walking with you. Next time, just dress up casually. Don't you know how beautiful you are?"
Su Mei is pretty enough to begin with, but after dressing up, she will immediately become a troublemaker. When walking with her, she will naturally be involved.
It's a lot of pressure for a man to be with her, and even more pressure for a woman to be with her. This is why Su Mei doesn't have many female friends in the capital. Just like Tang Ning herself doesn't want to be with someone who is better-looking than him.
Be friends - although there are not many such people.
Su Mei's expression could not be seen clearly under the veil, but her distant eyebrows were curved. She looked at Tang Ning with interest and said, "That's not what you said when we first met.
.”
Tangning smiled and said, "I was young at that time and didn't know how to appreciate..."
In fact, he didn't think Su Mei was not beautiful at that time, but they had no relationship at that time. Even if he complimented her on her beauty, she would not sleep in the same bed with him at night.
He is flattering Su Mei now not because she is the most beautiful woman in the capital, but because she is his god-sister, who shares a quilt with him at night and uses a pillow.
"Why didn't I notice before that you are so good at making girls happy? No wonder you tricked them all into your home..." Su Mei glanced at him and said, "Okay, let's get down to business. What are you going to do these days?
Be careful, the prince already knows that the three strongholds of the Xiao family were destroyed by you, and may take action against you secretly..."
With Old Zheng and Gongsun Ying here, Tang Ning hoped that the Prince of Guizhou would take action quickly. His Highness might never have imagined that there was an undercover agent who was as beautiful as a fairy...
Xiao Mansion.
The people from the Western Region and the grassland have left, and only the Crown Prince of Guizhou and a few confidants remain in the hall.
One person looked around, looked at Prince Qian, and said, "Your Highness, Bai Chongfeng is not here. Do you want someone to call her over?"
"No need." Prince Qian waved his hand and said: "She has been in the capital for too long, and her courage has become weaker and weaker. It will only drag us down. If she is gone, this prince will be clean..."
He looked at everyone and asked: "Do you think the words of the people from the Western Regions and the grasslands are somewhat credible? If they pretend to cooperate, once we start an uprising in the south of the Yangtze River, and they do not contain the Chen State's military strength, we have been fighting for more than ten years.
Wouldn’t the layout be destroyed in one day?”
The south of the Yangtze River is different from the north. If the Western Regions and the grasslands do not contain the Chen State and allow them to allocate their forces to suppress the rebellion, the imperial army will march straight in. Even if they win the south of the Yangtze River, they will not be able to hold it.
One person thought for a while and said: "The grassland has coveted Chen Guo for a long time. The third prince wants to inherit the position of Khan and needs such a great achievement. Xiaowan is very ambitious and is also unwilling to be a minister. This is not only our
Opportunities are also opportunities for them, and they should see this clearly..."
Prince Qian looked at him and said, "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens..."
The man said: "Taking a step back, even if the situation changes, we can abandon Jiangnan and flee to central Guizhou. According to the current situation, in less than five years, the grassland and Chen State, and the Western Regions and Chen State will definitely be separated.
There will be a battle, and by that time, Chen Guo will definitely have no time to take care of itself. If we wait for the opportunity to take action, it is not too late to reap the benefits..."
The Crown Prince of Guizhou pondered for a moment, then clenched his fist and said: "The only way to gain wealth and wealth is to start all over again. In five years, I can still afford to wait..."
The man continued: "This uprising is a test for us from the grassland and the Western Regions. If we can get the help of the four major families, it will be easy to capture Jiangnan..."
"The four major families will naturally try their best to win over each other." Prince Qian nodded and said, "However, before that, there is one more thing to do."
A hint of murderous intent appeared on his face, and he said: "Not just anyone can touch the Xiao family's things..."
The Crown Prince of Guizhou looked at a gloomy old man beside him and said: "Yan Congfeng, please take a trip to Runzhou Station tonight..."
…
It's hard to fight alone. It's impossible to go against others on their territory without recruiting a few reliable allies.
Tang Ning only had a few people under his command, and he was heartbroken to lose even one of them, but he didn't want to leave them all behind in Jiangnan.
The three major families in Runzhou have been in Runzhou for hundreds of years and are deeply rooted in the south of the Yangtze River. They are good targets for wooing. The reason why they are the three major families is because Tang Ning left the Su family to the Prince of Guizhou to win over. After all, the "four"
The number sounds unlucky. Remove one of the Su family members to get a lucky draw...
Besides, it's not a good habit to eat alone. If you eat meat yourself, you have to leave some soup for others.
"Bai family, Shen family, Song family..." Tangning stood in the yard, muttered a few words, looked up at the sky, and sighed: "The moon is dark and the wind is high, this is a good time..."
It's night, the ugly time has passed, and everything in Runzhou City is silent.
At Runzhou Inn, a figure suddenly appeared on the wall of a certain side courtyard.
The figure was shrouded in a black robe, looked around, and quietly fell down the courtyard wall.
In the courtyard, a strong figure dozing in the corner rubbed his sleepy eyes and raised his hand to say hello: "Here we come..."
