Chapter 56: Incredible, Incredible
Ning Cuo was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed at the moment. Without even opening his sharp eyes, he said, "The guards who messed with Hua Wan last night have been dealt with."
Xiao Lezi hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Lord Governor, they are all under control with the magic of bewitching."
Ning Cuo curled her beautiful lips and said, "Very good."
Seeing the man smile, Xiao Lezi couldn't hide his joy.
He was almost scared to death yesterday. He hadn't seen his grandfather angry for a long time.
I remember the last time was six years ago. It was the incident at the Jing'an Marquis Mansion. At that time, Zhuque Street, where officials from the capital loved to settle down, was stained red with blood!
He didn't expect it to be so unexpected this time. Last night he thought that Madam Xiao would definitely not survive, but he didn't expect that Madam Xiao was fine and his master had recovered as usual!
He now feels that this Madam Xiao is more and more extraordinary!
Thinking of him, with a smile on his face, he told the man a great piece of news, "Master, last night I received news from my subordinates that the salt-making method described by Madam has been successfully implemented!"
The man opened his sharp eyes upon hearing this, and then a smile spread across his gorgeous red lips, "Very good."
Xiao Lezi grinned from ear to ear, "Madam is truly amazing. You can come up with such a method. I've calculated that compared to the current Dazhao salt-making method, this method can save 90% of manpower and material resources. This is simply unbelievable."
Ning Cuo's smile deepened, and he glanced at her with the corner of his eyes, "Then tell them to do it."
Xiao Lezi was so excited that he lowered his head with a smile, "Master, don't worry. I will personally supervise the handling of this matter."
Ning Cuo played with the gem ring on his long finger and said slowly, "That little rabbit gave me such a valuable gift. Do you think I should give her something precious in return?"
Xiao Lezi smiled and nodded, "I think it's good, but I don't know what Madam likes."
"What do you like?" Ning Cuo raised his beautiful eyebrows, then thought of something and chuckled, "If you ask me what I like, I think I like seeing jokes the most!"
Xiao Lezi was stunned. "Watching a joke, what kind of hobby is this?"
"According to her words, she likes to eat melons."
"Eat melon?" Xiao Lezi didn't understand.
Ning Cuo turned the ring with a dim gaze.
"Let me think about this matter carefully."
Xiao Lezi said attentively, "Why don't you have my subordinates send someone to find something delicious and fun to send over, and consider it as my filial piety to my wife."
Ning Cuo glanced at him with a charming smile, "You are quite clever, but you should stay away from her from now on."
Xiao Lezi was stunned. What does this mean?
Their master is now jealous of even a real eunuch like him?
How could this be possible? He had just thought about it. If he had any problems in the future, he would have to ask Madam Xiao for help!
He was thinking about whether he should show his loyalty to his master and stop him from having any undue thoughts, when he was hit hard on the forehead.
Ning Cuo withdrew his hand, and smiled evilly, "How dare you criticize me in front of me?"
Xiao Lezi covered his forehead and smiled apologetically, "Master Du, you are so discerning. I won't dare to do that again!"
Ning Cuo lazily said, "I told you to stay away from her because the little rabbit's abilities have increased significantly recently. Not only can it see through dying people, it seems it can also see through living people. Next time you see her, control your thoughts and don't let her see through you and ruin my plans."
Xiao Lezi suddenly understood, "So that's how it is. I understand now."
This is not difficult for this group of people.
Ning Cuo gave another order, "Send over a few more people who are proficient in the art of bewitching souls, just in case of any emergency."
Xiao Lezi nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, Master. I'll have someone take care of it in a moment."
After that, he added, "There is a small matter that I want to report to the Governor."
"What is it?"
"It's the Jade Prince's old lover from the Golden Palace, the one who tried to harm Madam last time and came to me. Her name is Yu Feng'er."
Ning Cuo curled his lips when he heard that. He remembered this girl. After all, she was the matchmaker between him and the little rabbit.
Xiao Lezi continued with a smile, "The person we recently sent to monitor us reported back that this woman seemed to be trying to find out Madam's whereabouts. It seems she wants to do something."
Ning Cuo's fingers stroked the gorgeous gemstone, a smile on his thin red lips, "Oh~, what do you want to do?"
Xiao Lezi lowered his head nervously, "It's nothing more than thinking he has something on Madam and wants to use it to blackmail her."
"Two people died around me, but I'm not afraid at all."
Xiao Lezi couldn't help but sneer, "It's probably just that he's blinded by profit and lost his mind, so I came to ask the master, do you want to keep the person this time?"
The reason why they didn't kill her last time was because this woman's identity could just serve as a cover for their master. Now she even dares to have evil thoughts. She is simply seeking death.
Ning Cuo did not answer immediately, because it happened that the imperial carriage passed by the Jinque Tower, and by coincidence he saw the handsome Jade King in front of the building, and Xiao Lezi asked if they wanted to stay.
Ning Cuo leaned against the golden and red soft couch, the corners of his wicked lips raised deeply, and he said with a smile, "This is fate!"
Xiao Lezi looked over when he heard that, and was also surprised for a moment. It was indeed, what a fate!
He turned to look at the man, but the latter raised his gorgeous hand and said, "Stop!"
The imperial carriage fell silent upon hearing the sound, and then landed directly in front of the gate of Jinque Tower.
The people on the street fell silent for a moment, and then countless people knelt on the ground in fear.
The Jade Prince was still unaware of anything. He was holding the sobbing woman in his arms with heartache, comforting her gently.
"Feng'er, don't be sad. Although Mother didn't directly agree to your initiation this time, it's different from the previous times. She has promised me that she will consider it. We still have a chance."
Yu Feng'er was crying, tears streaming down her face. Upon hearing this, she timidly asked, "Really?"
Prince Jade nodded, "Yes, and I have a feeling that Mother will agree this time."
Yu Feng'er smiled with tears in her eyes, "If that's the case, it would be great. We can finally be together openly." Then she cried with joy and threw herself into the man's arms.
Prince Yu also hugged the woman tightly and said affectionately, "When you enter the palace, you will be my concubine."
Yu Feng'er became even more excited, but she still whispered, "Is this okay?"
The Jade King was very firm, "Don't worry, you deserve it."
Yu Feng'er shed even more tears. After years of waiting, her dream was finally coming true.
Now we just have to wait for her to enter the palace and compete with Xiao Tu.
Anyway, she has the leverage over her, and she can't escape from her grasp. Then she will be the real mistress of the Jade Prince's Mansion.
In this way, if Princess Rongchang marries in again, she will have the capital to fight her.
The more Yu Feng'er thought about it, the more excited she became. Her long-cherished wish had come true, and her body was trembling slightly.
Upon seeing this, the Jade King smiled even more deeply and was about to speak to comfort her.
A eunuch's sharp scolding voice suddenly rang out!
"How bold, Jade Prince! When he saw the Thousand Year Lord's procession, why didn't he kowtow and pay his respects?"
