Chapter 104 A Strange Woman in the Military Camp
Jiang Qingqing believed his words somewhat.
But I don’t understand:
"Why is this happening? Doesn't your father allow you to cooperate with the Jiang family army?"
Jiang Qingqing only thought of this possibility.
Hearing this, Xiao Congyan stopped playing with the doll, turned his eyes and looked into Jiang Qingqing's without blinking, and said arrogantly: "Is there a possibility that I deliberately got rid of those burdens?"
Jiang Qingqing looked at him with a slightly stern expression, as if she had figured something out.
Slowly said:
"Are you using me?"
Xiao Congyan's gaze paused for two seconds, then he returned to his original cynical look and said with a smile:
"How could that be? Please don't say such harsh words~"
Jiang Qingqing withdrew their gaze and nodded.
If you ask her how she feels right now, she might answer: I don't feel anything at all.
It's just mutual benefit.
Xiao Congyan took her to the Su family military camp and caused such a scene, and then made Liu Mei look bad in public in front of the tavern, just to make the matter bigger, preferably to the ears of Emperor Tianqi.
So that he can be put in solitary confinement or punished.
Then he could legitimately get rid of the responsibility of the title of the Third Prince of Tianqi Kingdom.
He went to Xuzhou alone with his supplies to avoid the natural disaster. Although Jiang Qingqing didn't know why he had the idea of escaping the apocalypse.
"Do you really believe what I say?"
Jiang Qingqing was referring to the high temperature.
Xiao Congyan didn't look up, just looked at the doll in his hand and said casually: "I trust my own intuition."
For a moment, no one in the carriage continued to speak.
The conversation between the two ended so abruptly. Xiao Congyan felt uneasy. Everything he did to Jiang Qingqing was not entirely calculated.
It's just a matter of getting closer to Jiang Qingqing and getting rid of Tianqi.
There is a perfect opportunity for integration.
He seized the opportunity.
Kill two birds with one stone.
"Jiang Qingqing, I actually..."
Xiao Congyan thought of Jiang Qingqing's excitement last night in the Su family's military camp. For the first time, he wondered if he had done something wrong and wanted to ask Jiang Qingqing what she thought.
But she looked normal as she sat on the opposite side, not deliberately looking stern.
She didn't throw a tantrum like the girls he had met before, wanting to interrupt him or refuse to listen to his explanations.
It was that nonchalant attitude that made Xiao Congyan feel dejected. He couldn't help but ask, "What were you thinking when you didn't object to the title of 'Madam' today?"
Xiao Congyan's words were direct.
Jiang Qingqing frowned slightly after hearing his words.
He also said frankly:
"I don't recall that happening."
The eyes are clear, without any falsehood.
He also smiled at Xiao Congyan: "Thank you for last night, I had a lot of fun."
Let’s keep things separate.
It was true that he helped her vent her anger last night, and Jiang Qingqing was never stingy in expressing gratitude to others.
But it's just gratitude.
It’s different from the one given to Fu Zhengnan.
That kind of gratitude was filled with an indelible heartbeat, and an inexplicable desire to explore and a sense of dependence. Just recalling it, like candied fruit, was enough to make her stunned for a long time.
Xiao Congyan had never seen such a contradictory girl.
Aren’t you angry when someone takes advantage of you?
Still so pleasant? He was indeed a natural punching bag, that's why he was bullied by Liu Yi and his people.
Xiao Congyan suddenly made a promise to Jiang Qingqing for no apparent reason: "From now on, I will protect you and no one will be able to bully you anymore."
Jiang Qingqing curled her lips: "Okay."
——
When Liu Mei was sent to the outside of the Su family military camp, she clamored that Jiang Qingqing must be punished.
But when she ran into the camp.
Now the entrance to the military camp is unguarded, and the howling autumn wind stirs up flames all over the sky.
White papers were scattered in the sky, floating in front of Liu Mei.
Liu Mei reached out and grabbed a few.
"This is... the memorial paper for a funeral."
Liu Mei murmured.
Looking around, she couldn't find a single person in the huge military camp. Liu Mei suddenly felt inexplicably anxious.
When she ran to the main camp, she saw Mo Yunyue standing with her head down beside a woman, listening to her lecture. Liu Mei forgot the pain in her scalp and ran over.
"Mo Yunyue! Where's my dad?"
His tone was still as arrogant and domineering as usual.
Mo Yunyue and the woman beside her both turned their heads.
The woman beside her frowned at Liu Mei's funny look, whispered to Mo Yunyue the details of taking care of Liu Xubai, then turned and left.
Liu Mei ran over panting, and she naturally saw the disgust in the woman's eyes.
Pointing at the woman's back as she left, he cursed:
"Are you blind? If you're so blind, I wouldn't mind having my dad send someone to gouge out your eyes!"
Mo Yunyue waited until Liu Mei finished scolding before pretending to cover her mouth.
Whispered persuasion:
"That person was sent by the Queen Mother. He came with Eunuch Xue who was beside the Queen Mother."
"She saved your elder brother."
As he spoke, he glanced in the direction the woman left, making sure that what he said would most likely be heard by that person.
It can also be considered as an indirect way of currying favor.
When Liu Mei heard that Liu Xubai was saved, she was delighted.
The moment she saw the blank paper, she actually thought of Liu Xubai. He was her biological elder brother, the future heir to the family business, even though she had angered him in the past.
But the blood relationship is there.
Liu Mei breathed a sigh of relief, took Mo Yunyue's hand and asked:
"Where's my dad? Where is my dad? Why is there no one in the army today?"
Mo Yunyue's eyes were somewhat evasive.
Liu Yi...
What happened in the army today was too frightening.
Liu Mei noticed her uneasy mood and asked in a commanding tone, "Where is my father?"
He kept pestering Mo Yunyue.
Unexpectedly, the answer she received was Eunuch Xue's gentle laughter: "Miss Liu, if you want to know where Prime Minister Liu is, why don't you ask me?"
Her old face, covered with white powder, was full of wrinkles, and her lips were painted with bright red rouge.
When he smiles, he sees a mouthful of yellow teeth.
Liu Mei glared at him with disgust.
"I'm talking to my sister-in-law, when is it your turn as a father-in-law to interrupt?"
If he were in the palace, he would have respected Eunuch Xue for the sake of the Empress Dowager.
But now that the Emperor is far away, she is not afraid of this disgusting eunuch!
Mo Yunyue looked at her fearless appearance, moved away a few steps calmly, and felt a little gloating in his heart.
If Liu Mei saw how Liu Yi died just now.
Do you still dare to stir up trouble like this?
Eunuch Xue narrowed his eyes sinisterly, sizing Liu Mei up and down for a long time. She was once a beauty, but someone had burned her hair. His head was blackened and peeling.
but...
The more I watch... the more I feel.
If you get tired of the usual ones, you can try something a little bit weird.
Eunuch Xue flew to Liu Mei with great swiftness and stretched out his hand to tightly grip Liu Mei's neck.
"vomit--"
Liu Mei was pinched so hard that she gagged.
She slapped his old arm and said, "How dare you touch me, old man! My father is the prime minister and the future emperor of Daliang!"
