"Where are my two old men?"
Inside the Jingshan City official office, fines were issued to the mine owners for illegal construction operations, and all mine owners were ordered to suspend operations for three days to attend the official office to learn about production safety. Princess Wuxi looked at the county magistrate with a flattering look on her face.
"Reporting to the princess, the third master is cultivating himself in the Dingshang Manor. The prince seems to have gone out to look for some exotic flowers and herbs."
The county magistrate responded to the princess's words with a flattering face and did not pay attention to the fine issued by the princess. Jingshan District is located to the northwest of Xia Yu. It is a fertile land rich in gold, silver and jade that Emperor Wu Sheng personally conquered.
The land is owned by the royal family. The mine owners in Jingshan are just guys who have obtained the mining rights, not the real land owners. Nothing will happen if Princess Wuxi punishes them until they go bankrupt.
Just some guys who have some wealth and like to take risks to earn spiritual stones can't cause any trouble.
However, Princess Wuxi is the real master in front of her. The land of Jingshan belongs to the princess. If she fails to serve this princess, it will be more terrifying than the sky falling.
"OK!"
After learning that her grandfather was in Jingshan City and not in the mines of Jingshan, the princess felt a little relieved: "Arrange the van to go to Zhuangzi."
Although the third prince ignores the court affairs, the Xia Yu Dynasty is more than just the court affairs. If the third prince is not in Jingshan Manor, but goes to the mines or other places, Princess Wuxi will basically run away in vain. I have no idea when my old man will return to Jingshan Manor.
Therefore, Princess Wuxi was obviously relieved when she learned that the Third Prince was at home.
Although the journey to the top of Jingshan Mountain is not far, it still takes a little time due to the rugged journey. The van travels along the mountain road and passes through the wooden plant lift to the front of the manor.
Except for the princess's manor, there are no other buildings on the top of Jingshan Mountain. White mist curls up inside the botanical garden and forest, creating a dreamlike feeling that is hazy and unreal.
The night view on the top of Jingshan Mountain is not beautiful. If the sun shines directly at noon, the hazy mist and water vapor will reflect colorful light and shadow, making Princess Wuxi's manor as luxurious and beautiful as a fairyland on earth.
Princess Wuxi showed no interest after just one glance. She got out of the van and walked straight to the manor. She had no intention of stopping to appreciate the vegetation and greenery that had been painstakingly built along the way. She said to the servants on the side:
"Go and inform the third master that I am here. Now go and wait for him in the tea room."
"yes!"
The servants didn't say much. After bowing to the princess and taking leave, they went to the hot spring pool to find the third prince and informed him about Princess Wuxi's arrival.
"Yeah, I understand."
Before the servants set foot in the hot spring pool, the third prince, who was bathing inside, had already dressed and came to the door of the bathhouse and waved to the servants, indicating that he knew that his granddaughter came to Jingshan to visit the lonely old man.
The third prince's face was as delicate as white jade, with a bright smile. He straightened his sleeves unhurriedly and walked towards the teahouse that Princess Wuxi had mentioned.
He was quite interested in Princess Wuxi's visit.
The granddaughter has an extremely awkward personality and is very strong-willed. She has nothing to do on weekdays. She behaves as if she had lost her father and mother in her early years and never mentioned a word about her parents. She recalled that the last time Princess Wuxi came to Jingshan to look for her, it seemed that she was already ten years old. Things happened many years ago.
That time seemed to be the day when she was born, which was the coming-of-age ceremony. The princess's parents were absent and came to complain. After that, Princess Wuxi never came to Jingshan, and she only stayed with Xia Yu to give some opinions on the management of Jingshan every year.
"Little Fox"
In the thick mist outside the tea room door, a slightly thin figure gradually emerged. The light clothes on his body were somewhat visible due to the water vapor in the hot spring pool. Under the shadow of the lamp, the third prince slowly walked into the tea room, with his long hair hanging down and his face exposed. He said to Princess Wuxi with a smile:
"Did you encounter something troublesome and come all the way to Grandpa to file a complaint?"
Although the third prince spoke in an old-fashioned manner, his face could not be more than twenty-four years old, and his complexion was fair and rosy, and was very delicate and well-maintained. There was no resemblance to a rough man at all.
If you simply look at the back from a distance, you can even have the illusion of seeing a beauty.
"Your life is still so exquisite."
When Princess Wuxi saw the third prince coming in, her eyes and brows twitched slightly and she complimented.
"Why--"
The third prince raised his hand to stop Princess Wuxi, sat down at the main seat of the tea table, and said, "I just inherited the skin type from my mother. You also know how busy grandpa is in his daily life, that is, when the pets go out for walks. Only then did I have some rest time.”
Princess Wuxi's seemingly compliment was actually a mockery of the Third Prince who spent his free time scratching lice every day. He dressed up so exquisitely when he had time, but was unwilling to return to Xia Yu City to visit his granddaughter.
The third prince knew that Princess Wuxi was resentful, but he was really busy with business.
Now he has time to go back to Xia Yu to see Wu Xi, but Wu Xi doesn't necessarily want to see him now, right?
"Tell me about it? If you have anything to do with grandpa, you wouldn't come to me for anything." The third prince shook his head gently and said:
"As long as I don't say anything against Xia Yu, I can still say a word or two about other things."
"I'm ready to get married." Princess Wuxi said with a serious look on her face.
"."
The Third Prince froze while carrying the teapot, raised his head and looked at Princess Wuxi and slowly said:
"Let's talk about why your grandfather's skin is so white and tender, and how he maintains it on daily basis, right?"
"Grandpa, don't make trouble, I'm serious! I went to the Moon Rabbit Clan some time ago. After getting drunk at night, I saw the fox who was traveling with me at night. He was so handsome. I couldn't hold it back and ravaged him all night long."
Princess Wuxi seemed to be telling the truth, telling her grandfather that she was going to get married.
"Isn't this what you were making trouble first?" The third prince threw the teapot back on the table, leaned on the wide chair, put his hands on the armrests and looked at Princess Wuxi, and said:
"You are young and talk to me about being a wife. Even if something happens, just give me money. If you have any clues and fall into the hands of that thief, I will order someone to beat him until his soul is gone and he will never be reincarnated."
"To be serious, if you don't say anything, I will order someone to capture the fox who is traveling with me and ask for it myself."
The Third Prince has never seen any trouble, even though he has not seen his granddaughter for a long time.
But you can still identify some things. Please behave normally when you lie. When talking about those things to your elders, the shyness of your daughter's family does not appear on your face. Instead, it smells of treachery. How do you feel about your grandfather? Am I dim-sighted now?
Tell me these nonsense as soon as you open your mouth.
"You or he may be trying to gain something, but your deception skills are not up to par."
The third prince spoke, and his eyes stayed on Princess Wuxi's cheek, observing her expression, blood flow rate, and heart beating frequency to see whether his granddaughter was trying to deceive or was being filmed by a fellow fox. The image then threatened Princess Wuxi.
There are many things that can happen when traveling together. The fox may secretly use a photo crystal to record the princess bathing, or he may secretly record some unspeakable things about her.
This was something that the Third Prince could imagine, and there were many other worse things, but he had no intention of continuing to think deeply at this moment, and instead asked the princess to speak.
".Okay! I admit to lying."
With the third prince staring at her and exposing her lies, Princess Wuxi's toes in her embroidered shoes curled up slightly, and there was a hint of embarrassment on her cheeks that could not be concealed.
