Mrs. Xiao looked uneasy when she heard the words "Xiao Wang's Mansion". In the past, others thought that the Xiao family was the official Xiao Wang's maternal family, grandpa, uncle, etc.
But everyone in the Xiao family knew what was going on, so they were too embarrassed to come directly. Now after being exposed, I wonder if King Xiao will look down on them
There was also Princess Xiao, whom everyone said was a heroine. She had gone through the battlefield with Prince Xiao. She was such a brave and powerful woman, and Mrs. Xiao was a little uneasy.
Caixiu looked at the anxious looks of the Xiao family, and she really liked the simplicity of the Xiao family, so she smiled and said, "Old madam, don't worry."
"Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao are very nice. I'm sure they will welcome you. Besides, I asked my slave to take you out of the palace, which means I asked your slave to come and take care of you."
After hearing what Caixiu said, Mrs. Xiao nodded: "Then I'll trouble Miss Caixiu."
Caixiu smiled and stopped talking, because at this time the carriage also came, and the Xiao family members got on the carriage and headed towards Xiaowang's Mansion.
In Prince Xiao's Mansion, Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu were finishing their meal with their two children. They had just finished eating and were about to take a walk in the yard, but they heard the housekeeper coming to report.
"The prince, the princess, and the girl with colorful sleeves beside the noble concubine are here, and she also brought people from the Xiao family, saying that they would be arranged in the palace."
The butler's replies were all very straightforward. He made the purpose of the group clear to the visitor directly. Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao and said, "My lord, after all, I am your mother-in-law. Do you want to go and see her?"
"Besides, if Caixiu comes, it's probably the concubine's intention. Housekeeper, how many people are there in the Xiao family? Let's clean up a yard first and see if it can be accommodated."
The butler replied: "As for the princess, one courtyard is enough. This time the Xiao family will be the old man and the old lady of the Xiao family, and the eldest son and second master of the Xiao family will be taken along."
Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows. Wouldn't this mean that the whole family was mobilized? The butler looked at Qian Jiujiu with a puzzled look on his face, and then he gave the order: "That's it."
"When the people from the Qian Kingdom went to the Xiao family to arrest people, they originally wanted to arrest the old man and the old lady of the Xiao family, but the two men were worried and came with them."
"I'm afraid we suffered a lot on the road. The young masters of the Xiao family didn't come with us, but I guess they were left behind in their hometown."
Qian Jiujiu nodded: "It seems like the people of the Xiao family are pure and kind. Prince, let's go and have a look."
Mu Yexiao hummed, but he was not annoyed by Qian Jiujiu's decision. Besides, he was going to see the two elderly people, and the housekeeper was walking in front.
He didn't forget to order people to clean up the yard, and soon came to the hall. When the people of the Xiao family saw Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu coming, they all knelt down.
"I have met King Xiao and Princess Xiao..."
Mu Yexiao hummed: "Everyone, please stand up and sit down. Caixiu, have they had dinner?"
Mu Yexiao had a cold temperament, and the Xiao family never took the initiative to come. Speaking of which, Mu Yexiao didn't seem to know the Xiao family members very well and rarely met each other.
It's okay to ask him to be polite, but as for being intimate, he really can't do it. After listening to Mu Yexiao's words, Hongxiu also stood up from the ground.
"Go back to the prince, the princess, and the empress asked the slave to bring the person over. She said that the recognition ceremony will be held in three days, and asked the prince and the princess to help take care of it. After all, the Xiao family has no foundation in Kyoto."
"My queen doesn't want to embarrass the Xiao family. I don't know if the prince..."
Before she finished her next words, Mu Yexiao already understood what Concubine Qing meant. She turned around and glanced at Qian Jiujiu. Qian Jiujiu must have understood it if she was so smart.
Qian Jiujiu raised his eyebrows. Three days later, when Mu Yexiao was poisoned by Qian Guo, there would be another banquet, which would be very lively.
He nodded and said: "Your Majesty, it is rare for my mother and concubine to ask you to do something. This thing must be done beautifully, so that my mother and concubine can look good."
When Caixiu heard this, she understood. Qian Jiujiu agreed, so she bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Princess. I will go back to the palace to report to the Queen."
Qian Jiujiu hummed and saw Caixiu leaving. Qian Jiujiu then turned around and smiled at the Xiao family: "Grandpa, has grandma had dinner?"
"It's getting late today. After dinner, go to bed early. The housekeeper has prepared the room."
The people of the Xiao family naturally thanked them again. After knowing that Mu Yexiao and Qian Jiujiu left, Mrs. Xiao sighed: "My lord and princess are both good people."
"We must not cause any trouble for them."
The eldest son and the second son of the Xiao family looked at each other and nodded at the same time: "My son understands."
In fact, they did not bring the young people with them this time because they were worried that if they encountered danger here, they would be old and it would not matter if they died.
I wanted to leave some incense for the Xiao family, but I was also worried that after the young man came to Kyoto, his eyes were dazzled and it was difficult to deal with, so he simply didn't bring it with him.
Soon the housekeeper prepared dinner, and after having people serve the Xiao family, he took the Xiao family to the guest house to rest. After Qian Jiujiu and Mu Yexiao left.
Mu Yexiao asked Qian Jiujiu, "Has Jiu'er come up with any good ideas?"
Qian Jiujiu chuckled and said, "Aren't you going to hold a banquet? What do you think of my hot spring village? Although there was a war before and some buildings were damaged."
"But now after such a long time, it's almost done. Chen Da came here a few days ago and said that Zhuangzi has sorted it out. All we have to do is move in."
"I thought you were coming back soon, so I planned to wait for you to come with me. It's just outside the city anyway, not far away. If you have something to do in Kyoto, you can come in at any time."
"This banquet will be held in the hot spring village. What do you think?"
Mu Yexiao thought for a while: "That's good. This is possible. In that case, that's great. My wife is very capable."
"You turned the corner so quickly and got everything done?"
Qian Jiujiu rolled his eyes: "Where is it done? I just have an idea. Now you have someone send a message to Chen Da."
"Let Chen Da clean up the hot spring village. Three days may not be enough, so we need to send more people."
Mu Yexiao listened to Qian Jiujiu's words while looking at Qian Jiujiu intently. As Qian Jiujiu spoke, he finally noticed Mu Yexiao's eyes and couldn't help but look at Mu Yexiao.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Mu Yexiao raised the corner of his mouth: "My wife is so beautiful."
Qian Jiujiu originally wanted to restrain himself, but couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth and looked at Gu Jinchen: "Did you eat honey today?"
Mu Yexiao shook his head: "No."
Qian Jiujiu glanced at Mu Yexiao in confusion: "Then why are you so sweet today?"
Seeing Qian Jiujiu staring at his own lips as he spoke, Mu Yexiao's eyes flashed: "Do you really want to know why I have such a sweet mouth today?"
Qian Jiujiu subconsciously felt that Mu Yexiao had a purpose, but he couldn't tell what Mu Yexiao wanted to do? Qian Jiujiu's attention was all on Mu Yexiao.
He didn't know when the maids and servants around him all retreated. They looked at Mu Yexiao intently: "I want to know."
Mu Yexiao smiled and lowered his head, looking at Qian Jiujiu, and Qian Jiujiu looked at each other. Qian Jiujiu only saw Mu Yexiao getting closer and closer, and the lips of the two people who were closer were touching.
Qian Jiujiu was a little dazed, but Mu Yexiao tasted it politely. Qian Jiujiu's lips turned bright red, and when they kissed her seriously, Qian Jiujiu suddenly thought of it.
The two of them were still in the yard. It would be bad to be seen by the maid, so he pushed Mu Yexiao: "Mu Yexiao, please be more honest. How bad would it be to be seen by others if you act like this?"
Mu Yexiao sneered: "Look up and see, is there anyone else around here? Besides, it's natural for me to be intimate with my princess. She is the princess after all."
"Why are you suddenly not so enthusiastic?"
Qian Jiujiu rolled her eyes: "You said it as if I was very passionate during that intimacy. What do you want to express? Am I very perverted?"
Mu Yexiao touched his forehead: "I think this king's face looks good, what do Jiu'er think?"
Qian Jiujiu stretched out his hands to hold Mu Yexiao's face: "Let me see how pretty your face is."
"I thought Jiu'er had already remembered it in my heart. I didn't expect to see it with my eyes. But when it comes to Jiu'er, I can taste it. Did I eat honey today?"
Hearing Mu Yexiao's shameless words, Qian Jiujiu was speechless: "Okay, you've eaten the honey. Let's go back to the room."
Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows, and a smile flashed in his eyes: "My wife is so enthusiastic, but more impatient than me? Are you going back to your room now? But in that case, I will grant you my wish."
As he spoke, he hugged Princess Qianjiujia, then entered the house and closed the door. Soon, faint moans came from inside the door, which made people's ears red and their hearts beating.
I was so ashamed that the moon outside didn't dare to come out. The result of this night of indulgence was that when Qian Jiujiu woke up the next day, he was still unwilling to open his eyes.
I felt something tickling the tip of my nose, but I still didn't want to move. I could only say: "Don't make trouble, I don't want to move at all."
Mu Yexiao rubbed Qian Jiujiu's cheek in a funny way: "But it's already dawn. If Jiu'er doesn't get up, he will be laughed at."
"Aren't we going to take the Xiao family to the Hot Spring Village today? It just so happens that we are also taking our children to play in the Zhuangzi. I miss the hot springs in the Zhuangzi."
"Breaking in hot spring water can relieve fatigue and is good for you."
When Qian Jiujiu heard this, he opened his eyes: "You reminded me."
After saying that, Qian Jiujiu suddenly disappeared. Mu Yexiao knew that Qian Jiujiu had entered the space where the rabbit was again.
