Chapter 98 Return to the prime minister
When Xiao Ranjun heard Xiao Lingxiao mention Feng Ming, he was a little surprised, and then couldn't help sighing, "Xing Ming... Everything is fine, but now he has become the son of the third uncle, and he has become a brother and sister and brother with you. If you two are together, wouldn't it be against the ordinary? Besides, the origin of Feng Ming... I don't think it's that simple. Ling Xiao, there are many good men in the world. Isn't it better for you and Fengming to be sibling all the time?
Hearing Xiao Ranjun's words, Xiao Lingxiao couldn't help nodding with a smile and said, "What my brother said makes sense, but Feng Ming is sincere to me, and I also have a good impression on Feng Ming now. But the world is ermanent, who knows what will happen in the future. If my sister encounters difficulties in the future, I will ask my brother to help me.
Hearing this, Xiao Ranjun straightened his back and said, "Do you need to say that? No matter who his sister likes, if he treats his sister badly, his brother will definitely take care of him for you!"
After saying this, Xiao Lingxiao talked to Xiao Ranjun about the three princes she just mentioned. Although Xiao Ranjun has not been in the imperial city for many years, he obviously knows everything about the affairs in the imperial city. According to him, he and the fifth prince have met several times outside by chance.
"In fact, the young talents in this imperial city are more than those princes." Xiao Ranjun said, "It's just men who are about your age and have the talent to learn. Most of them are important descendants in the family. They will either be released to study or study in a college. It's like the brothers of our Xiao family..."
Since Xiao Lingxiao's death, only a few sisters have been seen in the Prime Minister's house. The young men in the Prime Minister's house are now in the college.
The doctor had a legitimate son, Xiao Ranjie, and the sixth aunt gave birth to two concubines, one named Xiao Ransong and the other named Xiao Ranqing.
"Our Xiao family has been a big civil official for generations, so the three of them are the best in the college." Xiao Ranjun couldn't help sighing when he said this.
The time I spent in the college before was really not interesting. Xiao Ranjun and Xiao Shumou have been walking outside since he was a child. He can be regarded as both literary and martial arts, and his personality also tends to be the cheerful and heroic feelings of Jianghu chivalry. In the college, his eyes are full of family competition and literary and ink battles between scholars, which are not in line with Xiao Ranjun's temperament. In addition, Xiao Ranjie has great hostility to Xiao Ranjun's identity, and Xiao Ransong and Xiao Ranqing, as concubines, if it hadn't been for Xiao Shuyong's sparse number of children, they would not be qualified to go to the college. Therefore, even if the two were outstanding in knowledge, they could not raise their heads there at all, not to mention who they were enemies and whom they would be friends with.
"Brother?" Seeing that Xiao Ranjun seemed to think of something unpleasant, Xiao Lingxiao called out.
Xiao Ranjun came to his senses and said with a smile, "But I still met a few interesting people in the college. I think there will be a chance to meet them in the future. At that time, I will introduce them to my sister. In addition to those weak scholars, there are also handsome generals who practice martial arts. Like the general's family and the eldest lady's mother's family, the two families have been generals for generations. Now that the two countries are fighting together, the two families must come forward. The descendants who have been hidden by them will also take this opportunity to show their faces.
Xiao Lingxiao knows more or less about the Qi family, and in the Yu family, she only heard Feng Ming say that the sudden rise of this war was due to the sudden death of General Yu Man Kang of Zhenbei University. The cities in the north lacked this guard to be taken advantage of it. She knew nothing else.
However, whether it is war or those family affairs, Xiao Lingxiao is not very interested. She cares more about what she wants to take revenge. This time, Xiao Lingxiao was involved in trouble. Although Mu Dewang was involved, the eldest lady would find trouble later. Xiao Lingxiao has been thinking about it for the past few days. Maybe it's time to get rid of this cancer. However, Xiao Lingxiao has never eliminated the first lady, all because of one thing.
"As the end of the year is approaching, the college will also have a holiday. Coupled with the war approaching, I think there will be a lot of noise outside the house during the Spring Festival. Xiao Ranjun sighed and looked at Xiao Lingxiao and said, "The eldest lady is pregnant and has to be busy preparing for the Spring Festival. Even if she wants to trouble you, I'm afraid she will be separated. Sister, I think you still need to go back to the Prime Minister's mansion as soon as possible. It's always reassuring for the woman who hasn't left the cabinet to live outside like this.
Xiao Lingxiao nodded with a smile, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Counting by, should the eldest lady be pregnant for six or seven months?
Xiao Lingxiao has not done anything because of the child in her womb, but the eldest lady herself has no intention of truce at all. She can't plant it this time, and I don't know if she will use other methods to deal with herself. Xiao Lingxiao thought to himself, will that woman make some tricks during the Spring Festival?
Thinking about it, the footsteps outside sounded, and Xiao Shumou and Xiao Fengming came back.
The two of them talked and laughed when they went out, but they were silent when they came back. Xiao Lingxiao looked at their faces and didn't know what had happened.
"Is that woman dead?" Xiao Lingxiao asked.
Xiao Fengming shook his head and looked at Xiao Shumou with very strange eyes.
Xiao Shumou couldn't see what he was thinking on a smiling face, so he heard him say as if nothing had happened, "Ling Xiao, I think this woman seems to be saved. How about you handing her over to the third uncle? I know a strange old guy who likes to treat this kind of patient that others can't treat. If you send him there, maybe he can save her.
When Xiao Lingxiao saw that Xiao Fengming listened to Xiao Shumou's words, his expression became more strange, but he did not stop him. Xiao Lingxiao had to nod. Anyway, the woman stayed here and was just waiting to die. It was better to find a way to save her.
Xiao Shumou was very happy to see Xiao Lingxiao agree. He hurriedly gave Xiao Ranjun a wink and asked him to take the woman for treatment.
Xiao Ranjun was still a little confused at first, but then he seemed to think of something. His face showed surprise, but his movements were not slow at all. After saying goodbye to Xiao Lingxiao and Xiao Fengming, the two went to take the woman.
After they left, Xiao Lingxiao asked Xiao Fengming why he looked so strange. Xiao Fengming stammered and told Xiao Lingxiao what he had seen, and Xiao Lingxiao was also a little surprised.
"The third uncle has never married a wife. Is there any special preference in that regard..."
Xiao Lingxiao's low muttering words were all heard by Xiao Fengming. His cheeks suddenly turned red. He turned his head and looked at Xiao Lingxiao, thinking to himself, is there too much that this woman knows...
Xiao Lingxiao looked up and saw Xiao Fengming's eyes. He immediately understood his idea and hurriedly explained, "The world I used to live in is different from here. For men and women... it is much more open than here." That's the truth, but it's still a little awkward to say so. Xiao Lingxiao looked at Xiao Fengming's mouth in surprise, and he really regretted telling him this.
"Ling Xiao, what was the world you used to be in?" Xiao Fengming is really curious.
Xiao Lingxiao thought for a moment, and the inspiration flashed. He asked the wolf in a dark voice, "Can you show him what that world looks like?"
The voice of the divine wolf came to my mind, "Yes."
I didn't expect that the awkward wolf in the past was unexpectedly refreshing today. It seems that this guy is in a good mood today.
So Xiao Lingxiao called out the divine wolf and gave it the heavy responsibility of another world for Xiao Fengming to popularize science.
The next morning, the Prime Minister's Office sent someone to spread Xiao Shuyong's words, saying that Xiao Lingxiao should return to the Prime Minister's Mansion as soon as possible. Although the emperor's eldest grandson is dead, there is no doubt that Xiao Lingxiao invited the magic doctor. The emperor did not summon Xiao Lingxiao again, which means that her notoriety has been washed away. As a woman who has not left the cabinet, it is also natural for Xiao Lingxiao to return to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Xiao Lingxiao did not intend to live in Lu Mansion all the time, so he immediately got into the carriage and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Returning to the Qinghe Courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Bao Ronger has been waiting for Xiao Lingxiao for a long time. It's cold outside, but a charcoal basin has risen in the room, which is warm. Bao Ronger helped Xiao Lingxiao change her clothes and asked strangely, "Why didn't Feng Ming come back with his master?" I thought he must be sticking to his master.
"He, who has been missing for many days, wants to appear openly, and he has to be questioned in detail. There are three uncles and big brothers here. There should be no problem. Xiao Lingxiao told Bao Ronger in detail what happened in the past two days. Bao Ronger's eyes suddenly widened and said in surprise, "It turns out that there are still powerful people like Lu Zhongyang hidden around us. It seems that we should be more careful in the future!" Mortal, you really can't underestimate..."
As soon as she said this, the voice of Narcissus came from outside, "Miss, the old lady sent someone to invite you, saying that you should go there quickly."
Xiao Lingxiao also expected that as soon as she came back, the old lady would ask her to explain the whole story immediately. After all, it was not a trivial matter to be suddenly summoned to the palace, and it was not a trivial matter to be framed as an ominous daughter. Xiao Lingxiao asked Narcissus to go back to the person sent by the old lady, and then dressed warmly and took Bao Ronger and Narcissus to Xianglinyuan.
Walking on the road, Xiao Lingxiao found that the people in the Prime Minister's mansion seemed to be much busier than usual. Listening to Narcissus's explanation, not only because the end of the year was approaching, but also because the number of people who came to the Prime Minister's mansion to visit Xiao Shuyong in the past two days has also increased a lot.
Even the little maid who serves people like Narcissus knows that the two countries are going to fight, so the number of visitors to visit the master in the house has increased, and the number of times the master goes to the back house is also less.
"How's the eldest lady?" Xiao Lingxiao casually asked Narcissus.
Narcissus followed Xiao Lingxiao, and there was a burst of nervousness in her heart, but she answered without stopping. "Although the eldest lady is pregnant, she still wants her to host things up and down in the house. In the past few days, the third aunt and the eighth aunt are also helping the eldest lady prepare for the New Year. Only the sixth aunt said that she is not feeling well. I have been hiding in the yard and haven't come out. It is said that several young masters will come back in two days. The sixth aunt is probably preparing New Year's clothes for the third young master and the fourth young master..."
Hearing that Narcissus said this, Xiao Lingxiao remembered one thing. She turned her head and asked Narcissus, "Have the people in our yard prepared all the New Year's clothes?"
As soon as Narcissus heard Xiao Lingxiao's question, she was happy, but her eyes dimmed. She lowered her head and said, "Madam must have forgotten it. Our monthly payment this month has not been issued yet..."
Xiao Lingxiao frowned when he heard the words, snorted, and without saying anything, he strode into the Xianglin courtyard.
