Chapter 495: Man is inferior to Tiger (2)
Huangfu Hao glanced at Princess Ming'an coldly, and his face suddenly darkened when he recalled what happened at the tribute banquet. Although what Princess Ming'an said was not entirely true, after all, it was Princess Ming'an who took the initiative to propose the archery competition with Shen Miao. But Shen Miao made Princess Ming'an bite an apple to compete, which seemed a bit aggressive. Even the last few light-hearted words had a hint of sarcasm. He was not sure whether Shen Miao did it on purpose, but if this matter was reported back to Qin, the Emperor of Qin would definitely blame him. For some reason, Huangfu Hao always felt that Shen Miao was very special. Princess Ming'an's bow would take others several days to master, but she was so skilled as if she had pulled it thousands of times. Occasionally, when she glanced at him, there seemed to be a hint of hostility in her eyes.
Ming Qi and Qin were not yet at war, so why was Shen Miao hostile to him and Princess Ming An? They hadn't met before, and was it simply because of Princess Ming An's embarrassment? Shen Miao's desire for revenge was too strong.
Seeing that Huangfu Hao didn't say anything but was thinking about something, Princess Ming'an suddenly widened her eyes in surprise: "Brother Crown Prince, are you bewitched by her? What's so good about a little bitch like that? Don't forget that before this, it was known to the world that she was obsessed with Prince Ding of Mingqi, and she was also an absolute fool. She acted so frankly and calmly, but it was just because someone was behind it. Don't let her fool you!"
Huangfu Hao waved his hand impatiently, "What are you talking about? As for you, don't forget what your father told you when you came to Qin this time. I don't care what you do to Shen Miao, but you can't do it in this mansion. You can do it elsewhere, but don't give her any handle. Shen Miao alone doesn't matter, but the Emperor of Mingqi relies on Chen Xin now. If you touch Shen Miao, Chen Xin will definitely turn against you, and the alliance with Mingqi will be ruined. You'd better put the overall situation first."
Princess Ming'an's expression softened after being barraged with such a barrage of warnings, but the rage in her eyes only intensified when she looked more closely. She smiled, "Don't worry, Crown Prince. I won't cause any trouble for us. I invited her here just to see what kind of person Shen Miao is. If we really want to take action, we won't do it in the name of our Qin State. Have you forgotten what we loved to do when we were little? Watching dogs eat dogs. Mingqi has so many dogs, it won't be difficult to find any one to do things for us."
Huangfu Hao also smiled: "As long as you know your limits."
…
The sky gradually darkened. In the former west courtyard of the Shen Mansion in Dingjing City, a small lamp was on, and Chen Ruoqiu and Chang Zaiqing were talking.
Chen Ruoqiu smiled and said, "This handkerchief is embroidered with poetry, it's really beautiful. Miss Qing's poetry is even better than that of the ladies in the scholar's mansion. I didn't know what the term 'clever and skillful' meant before, but now looking at Miss Qing, I completely understand."
Chang Zaiqing pursed her lips and smiled. "Madam, you are too kind. It's just that I can't help much here, and I feel bad about eating and living for free all day. I can only embroider some handkerchiefs. They are not worth much money. I hope Madam will not despise them."
"I don't mind," Chen Ruoqiu said, looking at the handkerchief, folding it carefully and putting it into her sleeve. She smiled and said, "I have to hide such a good thing. Otherwise, Yue'er will see it and take it away from me. If she sees something she likes from me, she will always pester me to give it to her. This handkerchief is exquisite, I can't bear to give it to her."
Chang Zaiqing smiled and said, "I hope Madam doesn't mind. If the Second Miss likes it, I will embroider another one for her."
"That's great," Chen Ruoqiu also smiled. "This way, I won't be afraid of Yue'er taking my heart away." She smiled and looked at Chang Zaiqing, asking, "Speaking of which, what do you think of what I said to Miss Qing before?"
