Xiao Mubai's expression softened involuntarily when he looked at her cute and money-obsessed look.
"I can satisfy you with all these things, but don't even think about proxy marriage." When Xiao Mubai mentioned this, anger still rose in his heart.
"Ouch." Xia Chu squeaked at first, then said with a solemn expression: "I just said that I wanted to get close to Yuefengwan because he was the regent of the Western Regions, and the Emperor was poisoned by the Western Regions, and my mother died. Eighty percent of this kind of poison, including the cold poison on your body, comes from the Western Region."
"I only know a few things about my father. I haven't even investigated this matter clearly, and I can't let you take risks." Xiao Mubai still looked determined.
"But this is the best way at the moment. Most people can't enter the Western Region at all, and few people from the Western Region come out. This time Yue Feng brings Liang Guo to marry, which is a perfect opportunity. Besides, we are only temporarily engaged. Maybe I won't have to wait until the wedding comes to the Western Regions to get the news out." Xia Chu was not willing to let go of this opportunity.
The emperor and his mother's poison were in a state of being helpless and completely clueless.
At this time, there was a rare opportunity to intervene, how could she give up.
"If you can't find out, are you really planning to get married?" Xiao Mubai asked sharply.
"Then it's just a formality. Once I enter the Western Regions, I'll find another chance to come out. Then it will be his regent who is in the wrong, and the Liang Kingdom cannot be blamed." Xia Chu didn't care.
"What if you can't escape?" Xiao Mubai didn't dare to think about the consequences, so he didn't want Xia Chu to try.
Xia Chu said with a smile: "I have been in the mountains for these years, but I have learned two things well. One is medical skills, and the other is Qinggong. If I want to leave, the barrier of the Western Region will be useless to me. Naturally, it is even more important. No one can keep me."
After Xia Chu finished speaking, he saw that Xiao Mubai still had a cold face and refused to agree, so he continued to coax him softly: "Besides, we may not reach that step. We must first solve the urgent need for marriage between the two countries and delay the discussion for a while. How are you?"
Xiao Mubai knew in his heart that this was the best way at the moment. If anyone could come back from the Western Region unharmed, Xia Chu would be the only one.
However, even if he spent more time planning, he wouldn't agree to let Xia Chu take risks!
"Xiao Mubai! If it doesn't work, I'll just slap my ass and leave. When I return to Xiao Kingdom, Yue Feng won't be able to hold me back. You go clean up the mess. Anyway, now I have to go find out about the Western Region." Xia Chu reached out and tugged at the corner of Xiao Mubai's clothes, yelling and getting angry, and finally started acting coquettishly.
The tone was soft and waxy, washing Xiao Mubai's heartstrings.
"I only allow you to pretend to be engaged. After that, whether you get the news you want or not, we will set off back to Chongqing. As for marrying into the Western Region, don't even think about it." Xiao Mubai sighed, finally unable to refuse that offer. A pair of cut pupils with ripples of autumn water.
"Okay." I agreed first, but who knows what will happen in the future, Xia Chu replied with a sly smile.
"Am I the first person to know your identity as a woman?" Xiao Mubai blurted out as he looked at the flowery smile in front of him.
Xia Chu frowned and thought for a while and said, "No."
"Who else did you tell?" Xiao Mubai narrowed his eyes and glanced at her from the corner of his eye.
Xia Chu shook his head and said: "Li Xinlan from Yixiang Tower is my mother's personal maid since she was a child. She naturally knows about it, but no one else does."
Xiao Mubai's face suddenly warmed up and he nodded with satisfaction. He thought of Qingmei again and asked uncertainly: "The Qingmei who has been with you in the mountains since childhood is a woman who loves the color blue?"
Xia Chu rolled her eyes at him. Didn't she say that Meng An was the best woman in her heart? Seeing him staring at her with unyielding eyes, she had no choice but to say to him again: "Yes, that woman's name is Call me Lan Yuying. When I return to Beijing this time, I will take her down the mountain and introduce you to her. She is the most beautiful woman in the world. However, you must not harbor evil thoughts."
"I only have evil thoughts for you." Xiao Mubai suddenly leaned forward and whispered in her ear.
Xia Chu's neck felt numb, her ears turned red, and even her beautiful and refined face was stained with a layer of crimson.
"Ahem, I'm going to change clothes, let's go out to eat." Xia Chu made a fist with his right hand, put it to his lips and coughed lightly.
He gave in and changed the subject.
"I haven't seen enough of you wearing women's clothes." Xiao Mubai looked at the shy girl in front of him.
At this time, her face was pink, like a flower and the moon, and she was wearing a pink gauze white skirt, which made her look even more elegant and elegant.
However, there are some overlapping folds on the shoulders.
Xiao Mubai took a closer look and realized that they were twisted together with silver needles.
He couldn't help but curl up one of his lips, raised his hand and stepped forward, looking into her eyes seductively and saying: "It seems that you are not very good at wearing Liang Guo's clothes. This place is supposed to be bare-shouldered."
After Xiao Mubai finished speaking, he gently pulled out the silver needles on both shoulders, and when his sleeves dropped, his smooth and round shoulders were exposed.
Ice muscles and jade bones can be broken by blows.
Xia Chu's willow eyebrows were lightly frowned, and her delicate face was filled with a layer of suspicion, which made her originally pure and beautiful appearance add a feeling of pity to me.
"Really or not, are you trying to trick me?" Xia Chu said in surprise.
She had chosen this dress for Su Qianle yesterday afternoon, and the size was a little too big for her. She spent a long time alone in the room fixing it in the morning, but in the end she couldn't do anything about the gap on her shoulder. , can only be twisted up with silver needles.
"I never thought Ah Chu would like such an unrestrained style. I'll order someone to make more for you later, so that your visit will be worthwhile." Xiao Mubai's eyes moved to her front.
The neckline is slightly open, and because the dress is slightly larger, it is not very snug.
But it perfectly showed her flat shoulder line and straight collarbone.
Xiao Mubai fixed his gaze on the impeccably beautiful collarbone, and the half-dark bone socket couldn't help but arouse endless reverie.
Only then did he understand what Xu Wenlan often said in the past.
There is a kind of charm that is not in the skin or body, but in the bones.
This must be the beautiful bone that he often misses...
Xia Chu followed his gaze and covered her front, turned around and walked out of the house.
Xiao Mubai watched her bend down and take a slight step, showing her bright wrists on the gauze.
Before leaving, she glanced at him coquettishly, her eyes full of spring water.
The hair is combed into parted temples, with a fox-headed silver hairpin inserted sideways.
The hanging black hair floated in front of him, and a few strands swayed, then gently brushed against his cheek.
Xiao Mubai looked at Xiangjiao Yunnen's delicate dimples and embossed flowers as they flashed by, and naturally stretched out his hand to give her a tug.
Xia Chu was eager to move forward, but he suddenly pulled her forward.
The force that was originally driven forward by inertia bounced back.
Falling in the crook of an arm...
