When Xu Baomo heard this, his face became more and more embarrassed. He was speechless for a while and then said: "It seems that this is a misunderstanding... When I got off the boat, because I was worried about Shimei, I accidentally bumped into Miss Gongsun and consciously offended her, so I felt so sorry when I saw her!”

Sheng Weiqiao was about to say that since it was careless, Gongsun Yingjiang should not have been injured, so why should he be so worried

But then he thought that to him, Xu Baomo was his elder brother from a family of family friends. Although he had not known him for a long time, he was very trustworthy; but to Gongsun Yingjiang, he was a complete stranger. Maybe Gongsun Yingjiang cared about it very much. What about this collision

After all, Young Master Han, who was decapitated by Sheng Weiqiao's sword, did not have time to truly insult her. However, to Sheng Weiqiao, that man would definitely die ten thousand times! ! !

Although she thought that Xu Baomo was a handsome man and definitely not comparable to Young Master Han, the relationship between Sheng Weiqiao and Gongsun Yingjiang was not close enough to intercede for Xu Baomo, so she couldn't say anything. , only vaguely said: "It's all my fault, brother Shi has been wronged!"

After hearing this, Xu Baomo's expression became even more strange. He coughed dryly and changed the subject, saying: "You know, Shimei, the Gongsun family is currently fighting fiercely among themselves. This time, Brother Hengshu insisted on returning despite Sheng Shibo's obstruction. , is it also calculated?"

"Miss Gongsun just told me something." Sheng Weiqiao nodded, "I really don't know what this family is thinking? How long have they been fighting?"

Xu Baomo thought for a while and suddenly made a silent gesture to her. He tiptoed to the door and window and checked carefully to make sure no one was eavesdropping. Then he said: "Shimei, I'm looking at Gongsun and Shibo." The relationship is not bad, or in other words, they are very afraid of Shibo! Now that Han Pan is besieging Tortoise Island and is in a stalemate with the Gongsun family, has Shimei ever thought that this is a great opportunity to calm the waters of Bishui and Nanfeng counties in one fell swoop? "

Sheng Weiqiao was stunned for a moment before he realized what he meant. He was taking advantage of the fact that three groups of pirates were confronting each other on Hawksbill Island and would not easily escape into the vast sea. He tried to persuade the imperial navy to take action and make a fisherman's profit - as a man The true apple of his eye, Sheng Weiqiao, of course, had never thought about such a military and national event.

However, after thinking about it for a while, he wondered: "What should Miss Gongsun's uncle do?"

Although she is still skeptical about whether Sheng Suihe is her half-brother, it is always true that this man saved herself and Xu Baomo from Young Master Han regardless of his injuries. Even though this time she was in danger at sea, it was all caused by Sheng Suihe's men, but she still couldn't do it even if she was out of danger now, even if she was plotting against Sheng Suihe.

Xu Baomo thought to himself: "Why does Da Qiao still call Brother Hengshu 'Miss Gongsun's little uncle'? Is she still angry about Brother Hengshu's insistence on coming to Tortoiseshell Island?"

But think about it: the reason why Sheng Suihe came back was because he heard that Gongsun Su was plotted and his life was in danger. In fact, nothing happened to Gongsun Su, but Sheng Suihe fell into the trap and was dragged into the trap. Sheng Weiqiao and his eldest son, both walked a long way outside the gate of hell!

Sheng Weiqiao did have reason to be angry at his brother for putting himself in danger.

After putting this thought aside, Xu Baomo secretly breathed a sigh of relief: His Da Qiao had not forgotten to care about Sheng Suihe until now. It can be seen that even though Aunt Feng was a treacherous person, Da Qiao was still unaffected. , is a good girl with a kind heart!

He was very satisfied with the results of his test, but he was also afraid that Sheng Weiqiao would misunderstand that he was repaying kindness with revenge, so he was rescued by Sheng Suihe. He wanted to use Sheng Suihe's life to pave the way for his own future, so he hurriedly said: "How could I harm Hengshu?" Brother? In fact, I suggested this for the benefit of Brother Hengshu - Brother Hengshu didn't recognize his ancestor before and return to the clan. Now that he has changed his surname back to Sheng, but he still cares about Tortoiseshell Island, he can just pay it back once or twice. There are many times. Well, there is no airtight wall in this world, how can you not let people know about it? By then, not only will Heng Shu's bright future be ruined, but the Sheng family will also be affected!"

Sheng Weiqiao heard this and said solemnly: "What Brother Shi said is absolutely true!"

He frowned again, "But based on his feelings for the Gongsun family, I'm afraid it's impossible for him to accept the Gongsun family being annihilated!"

"Actually, the imperial court has not taken care of the sea in recent years, and there is not much thought on the shore to kill the pirates." Xu Baomo reminded, "The credit for calming the sea area is not only to eliminate them, but also to recruit them!"

Sheng Weiqiao thought about it carefully and thought it was feasible: "But it's the first time for us and Gongsun to meet each other, so we can talk about such things rashly...?"

"Didn't Shimei say that Shibo will come to the island in two days?" Xu Baomo said with a smile, "How can we, as juniors, really do anything about such a big thing? After all, we still need Shibo and Old Master Sheng. Only when the elders come forward can we hope to achieve success!”

Although Sheng Weiqiao didn't have much experience in the city, he had been exposed to it since he was a child, and he knew many tacit understandings. He immediately understood the meaning of Xu Baomo's words. If the recruitment was successful, most of the credit would go to the Sheng family, and he would get some light at most.

Although based on the friendship between Mr. Sheng and Mr. Xu, as well as the people of the Sheng family, it would be impossible for him to just drink some soup if this matter came to pass, but what he said was really comforting, and Sheng Weiqiao's affection for him could not help but rise again. .

After the two had a heart-to-heart talk, it turned out that Sheng Weiqiao had not long since woken up. It still took time for him to completely return to normal, and he gradually showed signs of fatigue.

Seeing this, Xu Baomo hurriedly and considerately said goodbye.

When he went out, the little maid who was guarding the courtyard saw her. She hurriedly threw away the willow branch she had used to tease the koi, and came up to salute: "Your Majesty!"

"Shimei is about to be placed, please go in and wait." Xu Baomo looked around and found no figure of Gongsun Yingjiang. He couldn't tell whether he was relieved or disappointed. He nodded absently to the little maid and gave instructions. , flicked his robe sleeves and walked out - this was Gongsun Yingjiang's boudoir after all, and even if it hadn't been for what Sheng Sleeping Crane had said before, he would definitely not have stayed for a long time.

Unexpectedly, after only two turns along the corridor, I saw Gongsun Yingjiang with his arms folded across his chest, leaning against a red pillar not far away, looking at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "The prince was just looking around in the courtyard... Are you looking for me?"

Her expression and makeup at this moment were no longer weak and shy in front of Sheng Weiqiao: the pony bun on one side further highlighted the slender and white neck and fragrant cheeks; the carefully painted eyebrows covered up the original childishness between the eyebrows; The curved red lips are like flowers that have absorbed enough night dew, they are delicate, plump and attractive; the gem-like eyes are shining with the brilliance and fighting spirit of a hunter.

The attire is particularly incredible: the soft lilac-colored gauze clothes are layered one after another, but you can still clearly see the red myrobalan inside. The tight light pink brocade outlines a slender waist that is not even tight. There is a white and green skirt.

The color of the skirt is refreshing, but the green part is also made of overlapping tulle. Looking slightly lower, the slender and straight legs are looming in the skirt. Even if the trend is open now, such bold clothes are not easy for a good family on the shore. Dare to wear it!

"Miss Gongsun, please respect yourself!" Xu Baomo's mouth twitched slightly: If he had met such a hot and bold girl in Cangwu County before his grandfather and he had listed Sheng Weiqiao as a candidate for the wife of the Xu family, he would have been happy. No way!

But now, not to mention that his wife-to-be was still resting in Gongsun Yingjiang's boudoir, considering the identity of Gongsun Yingjiang in front of him, it was hard for him to attack her!

This is Tortoiseshell Island!

If he gets his hands on the Sea Lord's biological daughter on the Sea Lord's territory, even if he is a Hou Shizi, it is unlikely that he will be directly dragged out to sink into the sea, and he will definitely be in endless trouble!

However, reason belongs to reason, and Xu Baomo was actually quite conflicted in his heart. He was proud of his own charm - he had been entangled by Gongsun Yingjiang just after he got off the boat yesterday. If Sheng Suihe had not been awake at that time, he had told Gongsun Ying to Jiang personally went to take care of Sheng Weiqiao, and he probably wouldn't be able to escape. Secondly, he had never met a girl like Gongsun Yingjiang before, and he felt a little itchy in his heart.

At this moment, he silently recited several times, "If my wife is not Da Qiao, her legs will be broken by my grandfather. Da Qiao is so favored, even if she is generous, even if Sheng Shibo knows that I have an affair with this Miss Gongsun, she will definitely refuse the marriage." Only then did he calm down a little , said, "I have no other intentions for the lady, and I ask the lady not to do such things again! If it spreads, it will cause misunderstanding!"

"What's the misunderstanding?" Gongsun Yingjiang stroked his hair, suddenly picked up the corner of his skirt, and spun it around in a circle in front of him. The skirt was flying, the sleeves were fluttering, and the ring was jingling like a colorful butterfly. Xu Baomo couldn't help but think again. After taking another look, she winked with a smile and said nonchalantly, "This is my territory, and I can wear whatever I want on my territory. I just stripped naked and stood here, so what?! "

Even Xu Baomo, who boasts of "walking among thousands of flowers without a single leaf touching his body", is a little dazed at the moment - after all, the girls he flirted with in the past were both good and bad, but with his status, he must have gone to a brothel. Those who are high-end are often the top ones who come out to receive guests.

It's not easy to be a top player these days. Being able to play piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and be good at singing and dancing are all necessary skills.

And Xu Baomo is used to the airs of a handsome nobleman, and the girls in other brothels are professional and cater to him. It can be imagined that when they receive Xu Baomo, they must be very elegant, elegant, and meaningful. There is so much connotation. To put it bluntly: she looks more like a lady than a real lady.

How could he say such unreserved words as Gongsun Yingjiang in front of the handsome and charming Prince Xu

Seeing Xu Baomo's dumbfounded look, Gongsun Yingjiang blinked at him and said with a smile: "What do you think if I sew some more bells on this dress? Will it sound better when I walk with each step?" ?”

"Miss Gongsun, please respect yourself!" Xu Baomo first imagined the scene of Gongsun Yingjiang dancing gracefully in front of him wearing a gauze dress decorated with silver bells, then he straightened his face and said righteously, "To be honest with you, Miss, I already have something in my heart. Belong! So, I can’t answer your question!”

"What if?" Gongsun Yingjiang held up the shawl on his arm, moved to him lightly, stretched out his fingers and tapped his chest, and said sweetly, "If you don't have a purpose... you will like me to sew Ring the bell and come up to you?"

Xu Baomo thought to himself: If you want to sew, you should hurry up! Anyway, Sheng Shibo still has a few days to arrive, and I won’t leave right away!

However, he thought that "if his wife is not Da Qiao, her legs will be broken by his grandfather. Da Qiao is so favored, even if she is generous, Sheng Shibo will definitely refuse the marriage if he knows that I have an affair with Miss Gongsun." He still used great willpower He stopped his urge to nod and said expressionlessly: "Maybe, but there is only one person in my heart now, and it is not you, Miss Gongsun!"

He was a little nervous when he said this, mainly because he was worried that his words would hurt Gongsun Yingjiang - and what if Gongsun Yingjiang showed him his clothes without wearing them? !

Unexpectedly, when Gongsun Yingjiang heard this, he showed a look of surprise, clapped his hands and said: "It seems that this method can be used!"

Before Xu Baomo could react, she turned around and left, happily murmuring to herself as she walked, "Even the eldest son of the Marquis family said that if he didn't already have his heart set on something, he would definitely like me dressing up like this, and he would probably be moved as well. Yes! Without further ado, I’m going to sew a bell and dance for him, I don’t believe I can’t seduce him this time!!!”

"...!!!!!!" Xu Baomo, who was left on the spot: What about the promise that he would fall in love with me at first sight and hang around for a long time? !

Co-author The reason why Gongsun Yingjiang pestered her last night was not because this prince was her sweetheart, but because she wanted to practice with him so that she could seduce her real sweetheart? !
