Chapter 128 She hit me, so you are done
Jingwang Mansion
Mo Xiao was grinding ink on the side. "Your Highness, you have lost a lot of weight recently while handling the Xuzhou Salt Administration case. Today happens to be the Flower Festival, why don't you go out for a walk and take a rest?"
He Yanli flipped the scroll in his hand without responding.
Seeing that he ignored him, Mo Xiao was silent for a moment, then a smile flashed across his lips, as if he was impressed by his own cleverness, and he spoke.
"I heard that the flowers on the hill behind the Flower God Temple bloomed particularly early this year, and many people went to the Flower God Temple to celebrate the Flower Festival. When I went to the Ministry of Revenue this morning, I heard that the two young ladies of the Qiao family would also go to the Flower God Temple today."
He Yanli raised his eyes and glanced at him, "What are you talking about? Grind the ink!"
Mo Xiao curled his lips, "Yes, I know I was wrong. But I also feel sorry for the prince. The prince went to the Flower God Temple today, and I just want the prince to have a rest."
He Yanli paused, threw the scroll in his hand at him, and said, "Go and get Wu Shunchang's confession."
Mo Xiao picked up the scroll that fell on the ground, turned around and curled his lips again, taking his anger out on him every day.
It’s better to be in Beiming City, where the prince never talks about him!
"Wait!" He Yanli suddenly called him.
"What else do you want, my lord?"
He Yanli said in a deep voice: "I am worried about Mo Xun, so you go to Xuzhou in person and get the account book back to me."
When Mo Xiao met He Yanli's trusting gaze, a sense of pride arose in his heart.
He is the person the prince trusts the most, and he will definitely do everything the prince asks him to do perfectly!
"Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely bring the account book back!"
Mo Xiao simply packed up his things and rode away from the palace. He Yanli let out a long sigh and pinched his brows.
"Someone come."
The servant outside the door came in, "What do you want, my lord?"
He Yanli closed his eyes and leaned back on the armchair, "Prepare the horses. I am going to the Flower God Temple to pray for good weather and good harvests in Dayu."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
He Yanli slowly opened his eyes. As a member of the royal family, praying for the country was his duty.
There were too many people in the back mountain, so Qiao Wanyan and He Baozhu went to a quiet riverside. Yun Yao heard that there was a game in the back mountain, and that finding a prayer ribbon could be exchanged for very precious prizes, so she immediately went into the back mountain.
Qiao Wanyan was still worried, so she asked Ziyuan to go with her.
"Princess, have you heard about the famous soap in the capital recently?" Qiao Wanyan started the topic casually.
"Soap?" He Baozhu asked back, with a hint of surprise on her face.
Qiao Wanyan nodded, "That's right. I heard what Xia Siwen said yesterday, so I asked Ziyuan to buy a few pieces. This soap is indeed much better than bath beans. Since there are not many and there is only one store selling it in the capital, I bought it at a high price. If the princess doesn't mind, I'll have someone send you a few pieces someday."
He Baozhu's expression changed slightly. Soap? There was no such word in ancient times.
That day, because she could only use bath beans for bathing, she remembered a TV series she had watched before, which showed how to make soap with lard and wood ash.
She thought that if she could make it, it would be convenient to wash her face and hair in the future, and it would definitely be better than bath beans. At that time, Qiao Yihuan came to the princess's mansion every day, and she made it with Qiao Yihuan. Unexpectedly, she succeeded in one try.
Qiao Yihuan asked herself what this was called, and she said it was called soap.
But now, there are shops selling soap in the capital?
She felt that there couldn't be such a coincidence.
"Princess?"
He Baozhu came back to her senses and said, "No, no, I just happen to be free, I will go and take a look after I go back. If it sells well, I will definitely continue to sell it in the future."
"Okay." Qiao Wanyan was just asking casually and was about to say something else when she suddenly heard a familiar voice not far away.
"Girl? So the girl is here. It's easy for me to find her."
It was Li Xiucheng, he had changed his clothes.
He Baozhu looked the visitor up and down and said that he was good-looking, but her taste had become spoiled.
Not to mention her two royal brothers and Jiang Qiyun in this body, even the guard beside Wan Yan at this moment is not as good as him.
This guy has a kind of mediocre handsomeness.
Unlike others, each one is good-looking in its own way, with an aggressive visual impact.
Out of ten, I'd give this guy a six.
Pairing her with Wanyan is like a toad wanting to eat swan flesh.
No one knew where this toad came from, but it came to disturb her and Wan Yan's private time.
bother!
He Baozhu showed undisguised disgust and irritation. Li Xiucheng paused slightly. He didn't know if he was overthinking it, but he felt that his charm had decreased after coming to the Temple of the Goddess of Flowers.
When I was in Tongzhou, facing those young women, not only would they not take the initiative to talk to me shyly, but they would never show this kind of expression to me.
He bowed and saluted, "I am Li Xiucheng, the son of the prefect of Tongzhou, and I wish to greet the two young ladies."
After Li Xiucheng finished speaking, he turned his attention to Qiao Wanyan again, "I have already driven away that troublesome man for you, please rest assured."
Qiao Wanyan said calmly, "Well, thank you for your help. You can go now."
Not only did he not give her face, he also came over to get in her way.
What do you mean by chasing away the troublemakers? It was obvious that he was beaten up by Jiang Qiyun, and then he went back to change his clothes before running here eagerly to claim credit.
Li Xiucheng was stunned for a moment, thinking that he might have heard it wrongly.
When we were at the entrance of the Temple of the Goddess of Flowers, although the girl didn't say much, it was obvious that she was a kind-hearted woman.
Why do people curse as soon as they open their mouths nowadays?
He Baozhu was also stunned for a moment and sighed in his heart.
Oh my god!
The little smell of this arrogant young lady came up in an instant!
"Miss, you are really good at joking. I haven't asked for your name yet, could you tell me?"
Qiao Wanyan frowned slightly, her impatience clearly visible, "Who do you think you are? You are the son of a prefect, and you are qualified to ask my name?"
Li Xiucheng was completely stunned. In the past twenty years, he had never seen anyone who would not give him face in public.
He was the son of a prefect, but this ignorant woman was so disrespectful to him? Was she playing hard to get with him?
"Smelly......."
Before he could finish his words, he was kicked from behind into the river.
Li Xiucheng was caught off guard and drank a big gulp of water, then struggled to crawl to the shore.
Lu Jinye stepped on his head and pushed him under the water again.
Qiao Wanyan didn't even look at him, "Don't play with me."
After saying this, he turned around and took He Baozhu away.
After the people left, Lu Jinye moved his feet away.
Li Xiucheng cursed: "You bastard, do you know who I am?! My father is the prefect of Tongzhou, and my aunt is the mistress of the Earl's Mansion in Pingyang, Beijing, the Countess!"
Lu Jinye didn't follow his words, but just spoke to himself, "She slapped me today."
Li Xiucheng was confused. "Who hit you? What does it have to do with me if someone hits you?"
There was a hint of evil in Lu Jinye's eyes, "So you're done."
