Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp

Hearing this, Dongfang Jiong's face turned dark immediately, "Did Nangong Lixing find that jade pendant?"

No one would believe this. Xie Mengyao, as Concubine Jing, is still alive and well under the circumstances of falling out of favor. It is because this jade pendant has not been found. How could she put such an important thing away? , to the son of his deadly enemy?

"If that's the case, then don't worry about it." Suddenly, the aggrieved heart caused by helping Dongfang Yu disappeared.

He was still looking forward to the moment when that bitch Nangong Lixing was kicked out of the gate of Prince Xun's mansion.

Hmph, is it easy to be fooled by being his father? How prudent it is for two princes to get married, how could it be possible that they don't even have the heart to guard against others.

"Yes, servant girl understands." Hearing the sound of the zither, he turned around and went out.

...

In Dongfang Yunhao's study, Ming Hao entered from the door and brought Dongfang Yunhao a cup of tea and a plate of snacks.

"My lord, let's take a rest first, those things are too busy."

"Hiss, ho." Hearing this, Dongfang Yunhao tried his best to stare at the notebook in his hand, finally sighed helplessly, and threw the notebook on the table.

"Is the prince gone?" he asked.

Although the matter of the ten households in the border town is not a big one, it is not a trivial matter. It is right for Yu'er to deal with it, but why does he always feel something is wrong in his heart.

"Go." Minghao replied, "My lord, are you worried about your son?"

"I have to worry." Dongfang Yunhao shook his head and took a deep breath.

None of his sons made him feel at ease. Did he think that it was so easy to secure the position of King Xun? Not to mention how difficult it is for Yu Liuxun to deal with various things, just dealing with those people with ulterior motives is enough to cause headaches.

But they didn't know that they thought that if they won the throne of King Xun, they would be able to sit there for a long time.

"Yu'er is not good at playing power tricks. He still has them now. In the past, he was even less reassuring. Jiong'er's words... hey, playing power tricks is too powerful. If you don't care, you will have to play yourself into it sooner or later. This king often thinks how great it would be if the temperaments of the two children, Yu'er and Jiong'er, could be merged together."

The others, needless to say, were not suitable at all.

"My lord, you are worrying too much. How can people be perfect? ​​According to my subordinates, the son is good enough. Although he is a bit too upright, but fortunately he does things vigorously and resolutely. In my heart, the reputation is quite high." Ming Hao said in a good voice.

"Besides, my subordinates can tell that Miss Xia is more tenacious, decisive, and tough than Shizi."

"Pfft——" Hearing his subordinates' judgment on Xia Beibei, Dongfang Yunhao laughed unceremoniously, "You man, how can such a word as tough be used on a little girl. "

He gave Minghao a white look.

But to be honest, if Yu'er was half as tough as Xia Beibei, he would be relieved, but unfortunately, Yu'er's kind heart can never be changed.

"It's really a blessing for Yu'er to meet Xia Jiuniang. What's going on with Nangong Lixing and their side?" He suddenly sternly smiled and asked instead.

Nangong Liqi and Qi Weizui have already left, so why don't Nangong Lixing and Nangong Xian'er leave? Is he planning to celebrate the new year in Prince Xun's mansion? Still want to put down roots here?

"The Second Prince Nangong wanted to meet you twice, but was blocked by his subordinates. He probably will come again today. Do you want to meet?" Ming Hao asked.

This Nangong Lixing is really a person who doesn't hit the south wall and doesn't look back. He has to cling to the prince and won't let him go. Didn't you see that the prince doesn't even want to see him?

"If he comes, let him in. This king also wants to see what else he can do." Dongfang Yunhao said.

It's not a solution to drag Nangong all the time like this, he has to face it, so he can find a suitable opportunity to drive them back to Tianyuan.

"My lord, there is something. I don't know if I should report it to you." Ming Hao nodded first, then glanced at Dongfang Yunhao, and spoke in a somewhat embarrassed manner.

"Ming Hao, you have been with me as master and servant for many years, is there anything you should not talk about? Tell me." Dongfang Yunhao glanced at him.

"Actually, this matter is also related to the crown prince. There have been rumors in the palace recently that Nangong Lixing is holding the mandarin duck jade pendant in his hand. Nangong Xian'er is here to marry the crown prince." Ming Hao said.

"What?" Hearing this, Dongfang Yunhao jumped up from his chair in shock, his face was full of anger, "Who is so bold to spread such rumors?"

What kind of thing is Nangong Xian'er, if she has no brains and no looks, she is worthy of being Yu'er's woman?

"This trend has just started, and I don't know who spread the rumors for the time being, but I guess that it should be related to the masters in the palace." Ming Hao said with certainty.

It is impossible for an outsider to spread such rumors in Prince Xun's mansion just because of Nangong's strict enforcement, and no one can help him do such a thing at the risk of losing his head.

Therefore, he dared to assert that behind this incident, a certain prince must be behind the scenes.

"Damn it, it's really hateful!" Dongfang Yunhao slapped the table angrily, if he knew who was behind it, he would never forgive him!

"You immediately send someone to thoroughly investigate this matter, and you must find out the person behind it!"

"The subordinates have ordered people to investigate." Ming Hao replied.

Although this matter is not a big deal, it is also related to the reputation of the son, so it must not be sloppy, so when he first heard the news, he had already ordered people to investigate.

"However, lord, should you meet the third prince of Nangong and Princess Xian?" He looked at Dongfang Yunhao.

"See what they are doing, don't see me." Dongfang Yunhao has no intention of seeing them at this moment, isn't this rumor all created by them?

"My lord, Nangong Xian'er is still living in the palace. If this rumor spreads further, the servants in the palace will know that the prince and Princess Xian don't live in the same courtyard, but the people outside are I don't know, look..."

People's words are terrible, Nangong Li's actions can make the prince and the prince submit, so what if the younger sister's reputation is ruined, he can still do it.

"You..." Dongfang Yunhao tilted his head, and immediately realized that he pointed at Minghao and nodded, "Yes, yes, you are right, the more it is at this time, the more we can't let Nangong Lixing take advantage of it .”

I really underestimate them, but they can still come up with such a way.

"Well, Ming Hao, you first send someone to clean the inn, and invite Nangong Lixing to come over to me. I will personally send him to live in the inn!"

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now." Ming Hao responded, turned around and went to work.

...

"Sister Jiuniang, those people outside are really annoying." Xia Xiaoju ran over in a hurry, walked to the stone table, and sat down muttering.

"What's so annoying?" Xia Beibei, who was instructing a few guards to make the farm tools she had designed in her mind, looked up for no reason when she heard her words.

"Xiaoju, did someone bully you? Tell Sister Shiqing, I'll avenge you!" Wu Shiqing rolled up his sleeves and said domineeringly.

Everyone: "..."

Xia Xiaoju is now a bully following Xia Beibei, Shiqing, are you sure who will bully her? Who dared to bully Xia Beibei's sister after eating the bear's heart and leopard's guts?

"No, it's Sister Jiuniang." Xia Xiaoju shook her head quickly.

"Ninth Girl?" Wu Shiqing glanced at Xia Beibei suspiciously. Since when has Nine Girls bullied Xia Xiaoju? Isn't this time?

"Did Xiaoju hear the rumors outside?" Wu Shiqiu came over from a distance.

"What rumor?" Wu Shiqing patted the dust on his hands, stood up, and looked at Wu Shiqiu curiously, "Shiqiu, what rumors did you hear again?"

Why is it that Shi Qiu is the first to know every time something happens? Does she really not have that day?

Wu Shiqiu rolled his eyes speechlessly, don't say it as if she is the gossip woman, okay, she just overheard it by chance.

"It is rumored that Nangong Xian'er came to Prince Xun's mansion to marry him, and the prince also agreed to this matter, so that Nangong Lixing and Nangong Xian'er were allowed to live in the mansion first. I brought back a girl I liked, so I left Nangong Xianer there." Wu Shiqiu raised her eyebrows, and truthfully shared the version she had heard with everyone.

"And then?" Wu Shiqing knew that there must be more to come.

"Then I don't know anymore, that's all I heard." These are just false rumors, forget it after hearing it, why would she care about what's going on?

Moreover, if you think about it, you know who will be able to spread these words, there is no other choice except Nangong Lixing them.

Knowing that it is a trick, why does she have to be so curious, to drill into the trick? She's not sick anymore.

"Sister Shiqiu, that's not what I heard." Xia Xiaoju's mouth pouted even more when she heard Wu Shiqiu's words.

"Those people actually said that Sister Jiuniang is a bad woman, a vixen, destroying the good marriage between Dongfang Shizi and Princess Xian, deliberately trying to make Tian Yuan and Yu Liuxun have conflicts, and will be struck by lightning from the sky. Sister has no backing, the prince will drive Sister Jiuniang out of the palace sooner or later."
