The more he delved into it, the more terrifying Xu Qingmo felt about Xie Suxian. What kind of person was he capable of pulling everyone into the trap he had set up step by step.
Xu Qingmo felt chilled all over and felt a little insomnia. He felt that the room was a little breathless, so he got up and left the yard.
Xu Qingmo liked peace and quiet, so she specifically asked people not to keep vigil here at night, so when she left the house, she didn't put on a special coat, just wore a nightgown and went out.
Compared to the stuffy heat in the house, there is often a breeze outside, which feels comfortable and cool on the body.
Xu Qingmo sat down in the yard and stared at the moon in the sky.
Suddenly, there was an extra breath in the yard, and Xu Qingmo's eyes became colder: "Why are you here again?"
"Come here to steal incense and jade!" Meng Hetong jumped down from the eaves, stood behind Xu Qingmo, and said with a smile, "Thanks to the heavy rain two days ago, the sesame oil on the roof was washed away. That’s why I couldn’t fall off.”
"You're not afraid of me yelling. When the time comes, you can come in standing and go out lying down." Xu Qingmo turned back to look at Meng Hetong, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
"You can yell, but after that, you will have to marry me!" Meng Hetong raised his eyebrows with a rogue expression on his face.
Xu Qingmo was too lazy to argue with him: "What are you doing here today?"
"I'm here to punish you." Meng Hetong walked to Xu Qingmo, "I'm kindly acting with you today. It's better for you. That move must have used your real strength. As long as your feet are in the wrong position, I But it’s over.”
"Queen Duan? A person who dares to go to war without telling his family is still afraid of Queen Duan?" Xu Qingmo snorted coldly, "Don't tell me that you have these things or not. What are you doing here?"
"Your Majesty has decided to marry Princess Zhengyang to your eldest brother!" Meng Hetong looked at Xu Qingmo and said coldly.
"oh!"
Meng Hetong didn't expect the surprise: "Just?"
"Otherwise? I roared and asked you why, why did she marry my eldest brother?" Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows.
Meng Hetong looked at Xu Qingmo for a long time, and then said, "Did you already know this?"
Xu Qingmo said nothing, just looked at Meng Hetong quietly.
Meng Hetong understood immediately: "How do you know this?"
"Guess!" Xu Qingmo looked at Meng Hetong and said softly.
Meng Hetong didn't believe it: "No one would think that Princess Zhengyang would marry your eldest brother. When I heard the news, I was a little shocked. How could you be so calm? Unless you knew it a long time ago, how did you know?"
"When the emperor asked you in the afternoon if you have a girl you like, I roughly guessed it." Xu Qingmo said lightly, "When your majesty came down, he was very busy. He had obviously just come here after finishing his government affairs. The internal official next to him He’s holding a tiny machete in his hand!”
"Scimitar?" Meng Hetong frowned.
"That's a very small scimitar. Most people in northern Xinjiang use it as an accessory to hang on their weapons. It's a small trinket, but more often than not, it's also someone's belongings!" Xu Qingmo said lightly.
Meng Hetong was silent for a long time, and then said: "Is it possible that Northern Xinjiang wants to come to worship?"
"A few days ago, I heard my elder brother say that this is the time to renew the dynasty in Northern Xinjiang, and the sons of the King of Northern Xinjiang are making trouble because of the throne." Xu Qingmo said softly, "At this time, the most powerful eldest son The prince will definitely come for help!"
"When you ask for help, you ask for soldiers, but now Beixiang has not started fighting among itself, and our government cannot send troops there, so they are here to ask for a marriage!" Meng Hetong suddenly realized, "The prince of Northern Xinjiang wants to marry Princess Zhengyang! "
Xu Qingmo raised his eyebrows slightly: "You are quite smart!"
"Then how did you guess that Princess Zhengyang would marry your eldest brother because His Majesty asked about my marriage?" Meng Hetong was a little confused.
Xu Qingmo let out a long sigh: "You have a pig brain!"
"Xu Qingmo, you are a girl, so you can't curse!" Meng Hetong looked serious.
"I'm calling you a pig!" Xu Qingmo rolled his eyes, "Among the men of the right age who were present at that time, the only ones who could marry the princess were you and me!"
Meng Hetong's eyes lit up: "I understand, because I am a dandy, Your Majesty was still not willing to marry Princess Zhengyang to me. After much consideration, I decided to marry Princess Zhengyang to your eldest brother."
Xu Qingmo was too lazy to talk to him anymore.
Meng Hetong walked up to Xu Qingmo: "Xu Qingmo, your brain is so good that you can even compete with a fortune teller!"
"You are too brainless!" Xu Qingmo was too lazy to talk to him.
Meng Hetong, who was scolded, did not show any anger at all. Instead, he asked, "Aren't you worried then?"
"worry about what?"
"Princess Zhengyang is the legitimate princess and the sister of the seventh prince. In order to control the power of the seventh prince, Your Majesty will definitely make your eldest brother give up his power..."
"Sometimes not having power is a good thing!" Xu Qingmo interrupted Meng Hetong, "leaving that place is much more comfortable than being there. There are too many calculations and conspiracies at the center of power. Being a free prince is not necessarily a bad thing! "
Meng Hetong looked at Xu Qingmo for a long time, and suddenly couldn't understand: "Why are you, a little girl, so thoughtful?"
Xu Qingmo paused, and then said: "Maybe, you read a lot of books!"
Meng Hetong sighed softly: "You read all kinds of messy books. When other people's little girls are your age, their minds are full of love and love. It's better for you. At your age, their minds are full of calculations and conspiracies."
Xu Qingmo glanced at Meng Hetong: "You came here to climb over my courtyard wall just to tell me this?"
"Originally, I just didn't expect you to know it a long time ago." Meng Hetong shrugged, "I originally wanted to see your surprised look, but I didn't expect you to know it a long time ago. It's really meaningless and it's really a waste of time. "
Xu Qingmo looked at Meng Hetong coldly: "Next time, if you climb in through our courtyard wall again, I really don't mind treating you as a thief and stabbing you to the ground!"
Meng Hetong paused: "I am the only one in my family. You stabbed me to death. My mother can cry to death here with you!"
"Then I will stab your mother to death too!" Xu Qingmo was very annoyed, "leave quickly!"
Meng Hetong was driven away and snorted: "Who said your courtyard wall is too short? Since you don't want me to come in, you can build it higher."
"It's so annoying!" Xu Qingmo didn't bother to talk to him and turned around and entered the house.
When the door was closed, the sound became louder, alerting Hua Ying in the next room: "Girl?"
Meng Hetong ran away in an instant. After Xu Qingmo heard the sound, he said: "I just went out to enjoy the breeze, you can sleep in your bed!"
