The two looked at each other, no longer caring about their daily conflicts, and started to verify it together. As soon as Gouzi heard the name Xu Can, he rushed forward regardless of anything as if a mechanism had been triggered.
Xiaoyao Hou, who arrived a step later, witnessed the whole process and was so angry that he almost drowned him. He took a quick step forward, grabbed the puppy by the scruff of the neck, and threw him out.
"Butler Zhou, go to each mansion and ask how their dogs react when they hear the name of the prince. I want to see what's going on."
"Yes!" Butler Zhou nodded and immediately started to make arrangements.
No one present was a fool. The Second Prince had a gloomy face and said nothing.
Xu Can's thoughts suddenly diverged, and he asked Xiaoyao Hou: Dad, is my name on the Gouzi's menu? Shouldn't my son feel extremely honored? How could he deserve others to spend so much effort targeting him? "
"What a shame, you are just the first target. If they can use this method against you today, they may use it against others tomorrow if they succeed. This is targeting the men of our Dajing, and they want to uproot Dajing."
Xiaoyao Hou also followed Qiao Xin's example and turned everything into national affairs, which suddenly elevated the purpose of the event a lot. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, this method at least allows him to stand on the moral high ground.
Once family affairs become national affairs, it is not so easy to handle.
Marquis Xiaoyao lost control and dropped his dog to death. He walked forward as if he had just seen the Second Prince, bowed deeply, and said apologetically: "Your Highness the Second Prince is well. Please forgive my impoliteness." ”
The Second Prince calmed down his anger, walked over, and helped Xiaoyao Hou up with one hand: "Xiaoyao Hou is eager to protect his son, I can understand, to be honest, I am also wrong in this matter. I hope you don't take it to heart."
"Why is the prince here?"
"I am about to go to the palace to pay my respects to my mother!"
The second prince lied with his eyes open and made up a most familiar excuse. He couldn't say that he came all the way here to see Xu Can make a fool of himself.
Behind Xiaoyao Hou is his father, and he must never let his father think that he is deliberately targeting Xu Can.
Especially at this critical juncture. That's the birthday man hanging himself because he thinks his life is too long.
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Xiaoyao Hou and his son raised their heads to look at the setting sun and stared at the Second Prince inquiringly.
Do he and his son look mentally retarded?
The palace gates are about to be locked, what kind of greetings are you asking for?
Xiaoyao Hou was also a good actor. He smiled and clapped his hands, then said to the other party: "Then we father and son will not bother you anymore!" After that, he took Xu Can away.
The main hall.
Emperor Wu read the memorial sent by the scout and angrily slammed the table: "How dare you, you bastard!"
When he heard Eunuch Cao report that Xu Can was bitten by a dog as soon as he left the palace, he laughed angrily: "Good, very good! Now, I am preparing for the four barbarians outside and the internal policy is not in line with the law. The whole court is in a state of panic and everyone is in danger. He is really my good minister.
These bastards are stirring up such trouble, are they planning to rebel? Order the Jinwu Guards to quickly check the dog farms in the capital and Yunxi Town. I want to see how many evil spirits are hiding in this capital city? ”
Emperor Wu's eyes were grim, and every word he said echoed in the hall.
"Whoever it is will be severely punished. Since they like dogs so much, then chop them up and feed them to the dogs!"
Eunuch Cao fell to his knees with a thud.
It's been a long time since I saw Emperor Wu showing such joy.
This old lady Qiao is really amazing. Every time she comes to Beijing, she stirs up a lot of trouble. He just walked away.
He accidentally glanced at the messy memorial, and the big words "Beggar feeding the dog" pierced his eyes, making him shudder in broad daylight.
This group of unscrupulous people are so bold and arrogant, they deserve to be punished!
This truly touched Emperor Wu's bottom line. Dajing originally had a smaller population than other countries. In the past twenty years, natural disasters and man-made tragedies have continued, rebels and riots by refugees have increased, and foreign spies have frequently caused chaos.
Emperor Wu was already exhausted after taking over this hellish beginning, and he had to be cautious at every step. He had no idea that this bunch of people who had nothing better to do would do such an appalling thing. If the news were to spread, Dajing would surely lose the support of the people.
Qiao Xin didn't ask about the excitement on Xu Can's side, and directly took Qiao Yun to his mansion in the capital. Qiao Yunqing moved into the mansion bestowed by His Majesty on the day he received the letter. There were too many people this time, and the small courtyard at the entrance could no longer accommodate them.
On weekdays, there were people cleaning and guarding the big house, but the owner of the house was Qiao Xin, and she was not in the capital. It would be eye-catching if someone suddenly lived in such a large mansion, so Qiao Yunqing had been living in that small courtyard.
When the carriage stopped in front of the mansion gate, a large group of people had been waiting outside for a long time.
Qiao Xin looked at the scene with emotion. Unconsciously, the Qiao family had to support such a large group of people.
"Second Master, please come in, the old lady. The second lady and the young masters have been waiting for a long time." The doorman and the attendants waited until Qiao Xin got out of the carriage before bowing their heads and speaking respectfully.
"Mother, this is the jade steward of the outer courtyard of the mansion. He will take care of everything in the mansion for the time being."
Qiao Xin nodded and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work! Ask the kitchen staff to prepare a few more meat dishes for everyone tonight. Just don't drink alcohol, so as not to delay the work."
Butler Yu came to his senses only when Qiao Xin and others were about to enter the mansion, and quickly trotted a few steps to catch up.
This...is this the ancestor of the Qiao family? Why are you so young?
If she stands together with the Second Madam, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they are sisters!
This guy is too young. How can he look like an old and frail old man?
When he entered the mansion, he also asked Butler Mo about the head of the Qiao family. What I heard the most was how majestic and powerful the old lady was. I originally thought I would meet a rigid and dignified old man.
But who knew that the other party was a clean and neat woman. It has nothing to do with majesty and domineering, okay?
It is true that seeing is believing. It was really beyond his expectations.
"Grandma!"
"father!!"
"Second Uncle!"
........
The younger generation of the Qiao family, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, immediately surrounded Qiao Xin and Qiao Yunqing as soon as they saw them.
Zhang went forward to support Qiao Xin, but was rejected by her. Zhang was not angry, because she knew her mother-in-law never cared about these rules, so she stood aside with a smile.
Qiao Xin turned to her and said, "Thank you for your hard work during this period!"
"Mother-in-law, this is what a daughter-in-law should do, it's not hard!" ”
Qiao Xin hummed, turned around and picked up Sanniang who was clinging to her arm, and waved her hand, saying, "Let's go home!"
