Chapter 243 Top Face Control
At this moment, a woman's voice rang out.
"Why can't you let me in? This was clearly where I lived before!"
"I want to see which vixen has bewitched the three bosses so much! She actually kicked me out and gave this room to another woman!"
The voice was angry and jealous, and seemed to be unable to contain its desire to break in.
But he was stopped by someone and only a quarrel could be heard.
But soon the sound became farther and farther away.
He must have been taken away.
Lin Zhaoyue also turned around and glanced, "This woman?"
Mingxi likes to watch the fun, so she ran over when they were making noise.
Liu Ci was a little embarrassed. "This girl's surname is Su, and her name is Su Xiaodie. She was rescued by the head lord from outside a while ago, and she has been staying in our Duanyun Village ever since. Before your arrival, my lord, she was temporarily staying in this wing. My lord, don't worry, I will have someone watch over her later and will never let her disturb you."
Lin Zhaoyue understood the whole story and nodded.
"I see."
She did not comment on the matter.
Just walked in.
Mingxi also came back after watching the excitement and followed him in with a smile.
Liu Ci bowed and said goodbye, then left.
Liu Ci bowed and quietly retreated.
As soon as he entered, Mingxi's bright eyes began to scan the surroundings. He unceremoniously picked up a piece of cake and put it into his mouth, but the moment he tasted it, he frowned and spat it on his handkerchief in disgust.
"The craftsmanship is too rough." He complained softly and pushed the remaining pastries away.
How can Your Highness, a royal family, eat such cheap snacks?
Unexpectedly, Lin Zhaoyue also picked up a piece with a faint smile on her lips: "When you are hungry, you don't have time to be picky."
After saying that, he took a small bite and tasted it.
Ming Xi's face immediately fell: "I just can't bear to see Your Highness being wronged."
Lin Zhaoyue raised an eyebrow. "What's there to be wronged about? It's just that the food is a little worse."
"What does it matter if you have fine clothes and delicious food, or if you have simple meals? The way to live is to be content with whatever happens. You will adapt to the life that suits you."
Mingxi pursed her lips, picked up the pastry and took a bite.
This time he ate the whole thing.
Although Lin Zhaoyue was a picky eater, she had been fed with delicacies from land and sea since she was a child in the capital.
But she doesn't just have to live a life of luxury.
When she left Beijing to travel, she also ate hard-to-swallow food, hardened dry food, and turbid spring water...
Even though I don't like it, I can't stand it.
Although she is delicate, she is not squeamish.
[“The way to live in the world is to be content with what you have”—this sentence is so well said]
[Wow, I've fallen in love with the princess. I feel bad whenever she suffers.]
【Question Lao Xiao, Understand Lao Xiao, Become Lao Xiao】
[The princess has always been pampered, otherwise how could she find delicious food that suits her taste when she goes out?]
Ming Xi swallowed a cake whole before speaking, "Your Highness, I just went to take a look. That woman was really crazy, insisting on breaking in. But she was taken away by the people in the village. She didn't look very old, maybe sixteen or seventeen."
Lin Zhaoyue asked, "What does she look like?"
Mingxi: "Ugly."
Lin Zhaoyue looked at Mingxi suspiciously.
When Mingxi saw Lin Zhaoyue looking at her, her eyes immediately lit up. She sat down, supporting her chin with one hand and staring at her with sparkling eyes.
His face was full of words saying: Your Highness, look at me, look at me more, I am so beautiful.
Lin Zhaoyue sighed softly, "I was stupid."
How could she ask Mingxi?
In Mingxi's eyes, there are not many good-looking ones.
[Mingxi's top-notch beauty control]
[Princess: I'm just asking you unnecessary questions]
[How can the princess be so cute when she admits she’s stupid? Kiss kiss kiss]
[You kid, aren't you afraid that Lao Xiao will assassinate you through the Internet?]
After spending some time together, Lin Zhaoyue naturally knew Mingxi's classification of people's appearance.
In his eyes, anyone who is not beautiful is considered ugly.
One of the reasons why he didn't like Chu Yinyin was that he thought Chu Yinyin was ugly.
But he also has extremely high requirements for beauty.
At least, so far, I haven't heard him praise anyone's beauty except myself.
Ming Xi frowned and retorted, "No way, Your Highness is so smart that it's a bit scary."
Sometimes he even felt that His Highness was no longer a human being.
Lin Zhaoyue laughed: "Why are you going to watch all this fun? This girl has nothing to do with us."
Ming Xi raised an eyebrow: "There must be a connection."
"Hmm?" Lin Zhaoyue raised her eyes.
Mingxi looked at Lin Zhaoyue with a smile, looking up at her, but said mysteriously: "Intuition."
Although Lin Zhaoyue was puzzled, she did not ask any further questions.
She really wasn't interested in someone who didn't matter.
But Mingxi looked especially like a pet animal trying to please its owner.
It's so well-behaved that people really want to get started.
Lin Zhaoyue controlled her outstretched hand and raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Why is it that even though your eyes have concealed their original blue color, I can still see..."
Ming Xi curled her lips and said as a matter of course, "Because the princess is my master."
Lin Zhaoyue also curled her lips.
After leaving the capital, Ming Xi concealed the color of her eyes.
Otherwise, a pair of blue eyes would be too conspicuous, and one could tell at a glance that he was different from ordinary people.
With her blue eyes hidden, Ming Xi lost some of her enchanting allure and gained some of the purity of a young man.
But Lin Zhaoyue and Mingxi had been together for a long time, and even though he hid his blue pupils, she could still sense the faint blue light.
Especially when he's excited.
After tidying up, Mingxi asked curiously.
"Your Highness, why are the three leaders of Jiuzhaigou Shibagou all your men?"
Lin Zhaoyue also sat down to rest.
After walking all the way without a carriage, I felt a little tired.
As Mingxi spoke, he walked over to her and added some charcoal to the stove next to her.
Now that winter has arrived, the temperature on the mountain is colder than at the foot of the mountain.
The room was also chilly.
Only the steam was coming out of the stove.
In this warmth, Lin Zhaoyue also spoke lazily about the relationship between herself and these three people.
"Five years ago, I went to the southwest to investigate a military pay corruption case. Three people were implicated in that case: Gu Zhao, Xie Chi, and Liu Ci. They were used as scapegoats and became crucial figures in the case."
As she spoke, she curled up lazily on the bed.
Mingxi took the blanket and covered it.
Lin Zhaoyue continued softly, "Of these three, only Gu Zhao was born a bandit. He was originally the leader of the mountain bandits in the southwest. However, Xiao Tingye's men, who arrived in the southwest before me, captured their stronghold and took their leader into custody. He was supposed to be executed in the streets on a chosen day, but the officials there used this as a pretext."
Xie Chi, on the other hand, came from a military background and was originally a soldier. As for Liu Ci, he was a low-ranking official."
"Local officials fabricated the three men as the culprits and accomplices in the embezzlement of military funds. Even their identities matched up. Officials, bandits, and soldiers colluded with each other to steal military funds, so these three were pushed out as scapegoats."
Ming Xi was puzzled, "Your Highness has found out the truth of the matter?"
Lin Zhaoyue nodded slightly. "Those guys weren't very smart. Their fabrications were so watertight that they were full of loopholes. I just used some random tricks to get to the bottom of things."
Ming Xi curled her lips and whispered, "Your Highness must be too smart..."
Lin Zhaoyue said calmly, "Those officials who embezzled military funds kidnapped their families as evidence. That's why the three of them confessed their crimes. There's no such thing as a wall that's impenetrable, and besides, there's nothing I can't find out."
"I've long been aware of the Southwest Military Pay corruption case and have had my men closely monitor their every move. So from the moment they brought out these three scapegoats, I knew they were being wrongly accused."
Mingxi raised her eyes.
Five years ago.
Your Highness is only about fifteen or sixteen years old, right?
He suddenly became very curious about what the prince looked like when he was fifteen or sixteen years old.
