The prince is very fierce

Under the same night, Huainan County, thousands of miles away.

Huainan has been known as the "throat of Zhongzhou and the barrier of Jiangnan" since ancient times. Jiangnan is richest in the world, and there are many wealthy families among them. The most prominent among them is the Xiao family of Huainan, which has been passed down for thousands of years.

At the transition between autumn and winter, the Huaihe River is still spring-like all year round with a bit of warmth.

The entire Huainan County is the territory of the Xiao family, and the ancestral home of the Xiao family is built in the countryside, close to the river, surrounded by thousands of hectares of fertile farmland, with well-structured buildings located in it. The family education is very strict, and there are no bright lights or music at night. In Dadan's scene, one could only occasionally see the young master reading at night from the window of the pavilion. Fastest update PC version::/

There is a large house deep in the Xiao Family Village, where the direct descendants of the Xiao family live. It occupies a large area, but because the incense has faded, there are not many people inside, and most of them are servants.

Between the two stone lions at the gate, the eldest son Xiao Tingxiao, who had just been called back from the capital, was wearing a scholar's robe and looking at the west like a watchman's stone. He had been staring at the west for several days.

The little maid ran out rubbing her eyes and tried to dissuade Xiao Ting from behind:

"Sir, please go back. It's already so late. When the lights out time comes, if you are not in bed, you will be punished to copy books again."

Xiao Ting held the folding fan tightly, his eyes filled with sadness:

"Why is uncle walking so slowly? I'm already here, uncle, why hasn't he come over yet? I'm really anxious..."

The little maid sighed: "Master, don't talk nonsense. If the master of the house hears it, you will be in trouble."

"Am I not miserable enough?"

Xiao Ting raised his hand and wanted to curse a few words, but he didn't dare to speak.

Originally, as soon as Xu Buling left, Xiao Ting became the number one dandy in the capital. Apart from the emperor, he was the biggest. He could do whatever he wanted without fear of being beaten. The result was good. Just a few days after he was free and unrestrained, a letter suddenly came and called him back to his hometown in Huainan.

Xiao Ting experienced the "Xiao family tradition" and "filial sons under the stick" for the first time since he was a child. In the past, his father was too lazy to beat him, but his eldest aunt Xiao Qi really dared to do it. Yue has written more words than he has written in more than ten years combined.

Xiao Ting's only thought now is that Xu Buling should come over quickly and marry Xiao Qi. He can call her ancestor instead of uncle.

It's a pity that Xu Buling came here as fast as a tortoise. Xiao Ting watched him three times a day in the morning, noon and evening, and he was almost a thousand miles away from Chu Di to drag him away.

On the other side, in the meeting hall in the middle of Xiao Mansion, Xiao Qi was wearing a long black dress, her hair was still tied up in a style that had not left the cabinet, and her brows had as always a hint of lightness and clarity of worldly affairs.

Hua Jingting, the chief steward, was sitting on the Taishi chair on the side, talking about the news that had come recently:

"...If the spies' news is correct, Zhu Liu has already entered Daying Tower and is currently walking around Chu. The purpose is probably for the string of sword spikes in the Cao family's hands..."

Sitting in the meeting hall were the Xiao family's staff and uncles. It was considered a small meeting held every day in the family.

Xiao Qi sat on the main seat and said in a calm voice:

"...The Book of Tongtian is a rumor in the world. It is impossible for people like Zhu Liu to believe in the saying of 'invulnerability, flight and ascension'. Dayinglou will not go to war for a book left by the previous dynasty. Collect four pieces The jade may have another purpose..."

"...The origin of Daying Tower is very clear. The purpose must be to light a spark in the world. However, it is difficult for one Li Hansheng to grow to the current scale in a short time. I am afraid there is support from a chaebol or a big family... "

"...It seems that the only ones who are likely to rebel at the moment are those of King Su's lineage. Prince Su's Crown Prince has also arrived in Chu. Is it possible that..."

Xiao Qi's face changed slightly, and her cold brows showed a bit of displeasure:

"If the vassal king wants to rebel, why rely on a few Jianghu forces."

Everyone thought about it. Xiao Mo, the head of the second room, was Xiao Qi's uncle. At this time, he said softly:

"Xiao Qi, King Su suddenly proposed a marriage with the Xiao family and asked his son to propose marriage directly without any prior consultation. When King Su opened his mouth, the Holy Emperor would naturally not say anything, but the marriage between the Xiao and Xu families was not a small matter. , logically it should be a little taboo, but if you refuse, Prince Su will be offended to death. Xu Buling is not yet married, and he is also an outstanding person of his generation. It is very suitable to marry you. We discussed it with each other, and it would be a pity to refuse. It depends on what you mean..."

Xiao Qi's expression was calm, but her hands under the table were clenched tightly. She remained silent for a while and said softly:

"I'm thinking about the pros and cons of this matter. It's getting late. Everyone, please go back and rest."

Seeing that Xiao Qi still refused to give her the right answer, everyone couldn't say anything at the moment. After getting up and saying goodbye, they walked out one after another.

In the quiet night of the meeting hall, Xiao Qi sat alone behind the desk. After everyone disappeared, her brows showed a bit of shame, anger and aggrievedness.

The last time Xu Buling broke the overall situation laid out by the emperor, Xiao Qi was originally shocked, but she looked at Xu Buling with admiration and felt sorry for him.

When I was trying to pack away my sister's 'relics', I found a small note in the box containing the dirty things.

Xiao Qi took out a small piece of paper from her arms that she had crumpled countless times. Looking at the words "Goodbye, Miss" on it and the weird smiling face behind it, she couldn't help but crumpled the paper into a ball again. Son, dropped on the ground.

Xiao Qi's mind is different from ordinary people's intelligence. When she saw this sentence specially reserved for her, she naturally understood a lot of things.

Xu Buling had recognized her that night and knew that she was not Xiang'er! They were all acting stupid afterwards, pretending not to notice.

Xiao Qi became so angry that she felt dizzy when she thought about how she was acting so hard to cover up.

Now that you've discovered it, why do you still touch her? Fastest update Mobile version::

He was licked from head to toe, the look was simply...

Xiao Qi hugged her arms tightly. If she hadn't been unable to die, she would have hit her head against a pillar and died. She didn't dare to think about it, but this matter must be sorted out.

Could it be that you realized something was wrong after you went in?

But he didn't stop at that time. She almost fainted...

Xiao Qi thought about it for a long time, but she actually knew that situation. Xu Buling would definitely not dare to admit it. He could only confess to her on the eve of leaving Chang'an.

Frankly, frankly, she pretended it had never happened, so why did she come to propose marriage again out of nowhere? Do you want to be responsible for her?

Let’s not talk about the issue of sitting in the Xiao family. She is a few years older than Xu Buling, and her sister is also in Xu Buling’s family. How can she marry...

Moreover, before Xu Buling made up his mind, he didn't even have the intention to discuss it. He just wrote a letter saying, "I'm coming to marry you." Then the boat came over, and no one could refuse him politely. How could he propose marriage like this?

Are you sure that I will marry you?

Xiao Qitai's temper, which had never changed before, was a little unsteady at this time. She stood up, walked to the small piece of paper, stepped on it, and started pacing back and forth.

It was obviously impossible to refuse Xu Buling directly. It was obviously impossible for Dayue to go back. Dayue was not named Xiao. How could she stop a vassal prince from coming over...

It is even more impossible to agree. She is not Xiang'er. How can she follow her husband just because they are married...

If she really got married, wouldn't the Xiao family really want to hand it over to that idiot Xiao Ting...

What to do...

…

Tap tap tap

Footsteps came and went late into the night.

Miss Xiao, who has always been a good judge, may have never been so sad in her life. She just hopes that Xu Buling will walk slower, and it is best to regret and not come here...
