Prince doesn't want to marry

In the early morning, Qi Yumo opened his hazy eyes, yawned, and it was time to get up and face.

He stretched out his uninjured left hand to use his strength to sit up, staring blankly at his trousers, and after a while, he moved slowly and put on the official uniform.Although the eyes are open, but the vision is broken.

After putting on the official uniform, he sat on the edge of the bed again and was in a daze.For a long while, no one was waiting for him to wash up.

Qi and Mo moved their eyes, only to realize that the maid who usually waits for him to wash has not arrived yet.He was a little puzzled, what happened to this little girl today, why did she wake up later than him!

Shaking his head helplessly, he was about to call for someone to prepare water, when he looked up and saw the screen in front of the window and suddenly remembered that he and Jiang Xiyao slept in the same room last night.

The rest of the drowsiness immediately disappeared, and he walked out of the screen carefully to look at Jiang Xiyao's couch.

The quilts were neat and the sheets were flat, leaving only a little coolness hovering over the bed.

Fortunately, there was no one on the bed, so Qi and Mo quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"The prince is awake?" Before Qi Yumo could relax, a cold and familiar voice came from behind him.

Qi and Mo's bodies froze, and when they turned their heads, they saw Jiang Xiyao reading a book by the window facing the sun.

Jiang Xiyao is wearing a light blue long dress today, and her waist-length hair is simply tied up. At first glance, she looks like a holy fairy who does not eat fireworks, but it still fits her usual personality and style.

"Well, I'm awake. Miss Jiang usually wakes up so early?" Qi Yumo looked away, and immediately worried that she would have discovered her identity when she woke up early.

"No, it's just that I got up early today, but it's only a little earlier than the prince."

Get up early?Qi and Mo slowly relaxed their hearts.

"Miss Jiang didn't sleep well last night?" Qi and Mo scratched their heads in doubt.

Jiang Xiyao put down the book, turned her head to look at Qi and Mo with a half-smile and said nothing.

Qi and Mo were taken aback, and looked at themselves for what, could it be that they woke her up?After thinking about it carefully, I should not have the bad habit of snoring while sleeping, right?Then what does she look at herself for?

During Qi and Mo's self-doubt, Jiang Xiyao curled the corners of her lips, lowered her eyes, and walked slowly towards Qi and Mo.

Qi and Mo were thinking about what Jiang Xiyao meant by looking at him just now, when suddenly a faint fragrance wafted into their nostrils.The familiar smell made him stop thinking, and looked up at the person in front of him.

Jiang Xiyao smiled at him not far away and said, "Your lord will go to court later? If you don't wash up..."

Qi and Mo reacted, but before they had time to move, Jiang Xiyao frowned slightly and took two steps forward.

Close at hand, the fragrance is more refreshing.Qi and Mo stared blankly at Jiang Xiyao who lowered his head to help him straighten his clothes. His white and soft fingers gently touched his skin through the clothes. Qi and Mo felt at home for the first time.

Jiang Xiyao withdrew her hand and raised her head to look at the slightly stunned Qi Yumo, pursing her lips and said, "If the prince doesn't leave, it will be too late."

Qi and Mo didn't dare to look at Jiang Xiyao, he turned his face away and nodded in panic, and took two steps back, trying to hide the uneasy beating heart in his chest.

Inside the Golden Palace.

"My Majesty, a sudden flood occurred in the Su County of our country, causing a large number of people to be displaced, and the people were in dire straits. I also heard that those refugees found a stone tablet with inscriptions in the flood. .. Great Qi will be destroyed! The common people say this is God's will." Liu Xiao, the magistrate in charge of Su County, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said tremblingly.

The hall was eerily quiet for two seconds.

Two seconds later, the ministers started talking about who the demon king was referring to. Everyone was like a bright mirror in their hearts, pointing and pointing at Qi and Mo Mingli secretly, and there were many discussions.

"Shut up!" Qi Yibai snapped angrily.

All the ministers were so frightened that they knelt down and kowtowed: "The emperor calm down."

It is said that when the emperor was angry, he lay down millions of corpses and bleed for thousands of miles.Therefore, when Qi Yibai was angry, all the officials trembled and silenced, and needles could be heard everywhere.

Except for Qi and Mo who stood motionless like a mountain, the rest of the people knelt down one after another, not daring to show their breath, for fear of offending the emperor at this time.

"The terrain in Su County is relatively low. If it is used by someone with a heart, it is not impossible to cause a flood."

Qi Yibo paused for a moment, turned his probing eyes to the ministers and said coldly: "Besides, the source of this stele, is it the will of the heavens, or is someone intending to replace the sky with oneself?" Emphasized the tone.

The people below still knelt and did not dare to speak, Qi Yibai glanced at Qi Yumo's indifferent face, and continued:

"Has Liu Aiqing ever checked the source of this stele? And whether the flood was a natural or...man-made disaster!" Qi Yibai asked with narrowed eyes.

If it is a natural disaster, then naturally there is nothing to say.If it was man-made, then this stele must have been premeditated. Then, the significance behind this stele is great!

What's more, Qi Yibai naturally knew who might have done this.Thinking of that person, Qi Yibai's eyes flickered slightly.

Liu Xiao trembled all over, and then crawled out from the crowd and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the old minister... the old minister has not had time to investigate in the future, but felt that this matter was strange, so he reported it directly."

"You also know that there is something wrong! Then I will appoint you to investigate this matter for a period of one month. Do you have any objections?"

Of course Liu Xiao had objections in his heart, but at this time the emperor was obviously angry, so he could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.Sorry for not mentioning this.

"Your Majesty, wait a moment! I think it is more appropriate for me to investigate this matter myself!"

All the ministers were taken aback when they heard the voice, they were very familiar with the owner of this voice.

Qi Yibai was also taken aback for a moment, then looked at Qi Yumo with a complicated expression, and said word by word: "You have to think clearly!"

The implication is already obvious, this incident was originally aimed at Qi and Mo, if he went, it would definitely be a disaster.

Qi and Mo looked at Qi Yibai firmly: "Your brother is sure, please give the emperor an order!" Escaping can only temporarily solve the problem, but it is not a long-term solution. It is the best policy to face him directly.

Qi Yibai closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then let it out heavily, slowly opened his eyes and said, "Okay! Jingjing Wang Qi and Mo, the magistrate Liu Xiao obeys orders."

Qi and Mo shook their sleeves and knelt down on one knee, while Liu Xiaoben was kneeling, and they both said together: "Your order!"

"From now on, Jingjing Wang Qi and Mo will be appointed as the inspectors, and Liu Xiao will be the governor. They will go to Su County to check the flood and the stele. The time limit is one month, and we will leave immediately tomorrow!"

"Yes!"

After going to court, Liu Xiao took the initiative to chat with Qi and Mo, and after saying goodbye, the two separated naturally.

Qi and Mo went back to the mansion to change their official uniforms and went straight to the restaurant. They set off tomorrow, time was running out, and he still had some things to explain to Yun Ruo.

In Yunruo's room.

"What? You're leaving tomorrow?!" Yun Ruo was both shocked and reluctant.

"Yes, I have some things to hand over before I leave..."

"No, I want to go with you!" Yun Ruo interrupted Qi Yumo before he could finish speaking.

Qi and Mo frowned, and refused: "No! This time the journey is far away and the road is full of dangers. I can't even protect myself. How can I ensure your safety!"

"I don't need your protection. I can protect myself. I want to be with you!" Yun Ruo looked at Qi Yumo with firm eyes.

Qi and Mo took a deep breath, and their voices were full of helplessness: "Yun Ruo! This is not the time for you to be arrogant! Not letting you go is not only for your safety, the capital needs you more than going to Su County with me! "

Yun Ruo wanted to say something else, but Qi and Mo said without giving her a chance: "Besides, I can't get news from the capital there, and you need to keep an eye on the forces in the capital at all times, so that I can understand the movements of the capital."

Yun Ruo's eyes flickered, but she still wanted to follow Qi and Mo.

Qi and Mo had no choice but to grit their teeth and release a strong dose of medicine: "The most important thing is, I need you to protect Jiang Xiyao in the capital."

Hearing this, Yun Ruo was startled, her shiny black pupils suddenly dimmed a lot, and finally she bit her lower lip and nodded.

Qi and Mo Song breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the tea cup and took a sip, looking at Yun Ruo's expression from the corner of their eyes.

"Then you promise me that you must return safely." Yun Ruo suddenly raised his head, stared at Qi Yumo closely, and subconsciously carried some imploring tone in his tone: "Even if it's not for me, you must... for her."

Qi Yumo put down the teacup, his eyes were full of tenderness and determination: "Don't worry, I will definitely return safely!"

After leaving the restaurant, Qi and Mo went to various news bases and told them that they were about to leave, and asked them to do their own things well, and if something important happened, they should send a letter to him in time.

After a busy afternoon, when Qi and Mo returned home, it was almost dark. After rubbing their growling stomachs, Qi and Mo remembered that they hadn't had dinner yet.

I was planning to go to the kitchen to find something to eat to pad my stomach, but when I entered the door, I found the candlelight in the main hall was shining.

It's so late, does it mean that Jiang Xiyao hasn't eaten yet?Qi and Mo walked into the main hall with doubts.

Under the illumination of the candlelight, Qi and Mo finally saw the scene in front of them clearly.Jiang Xiyao was sitting at the dining table at this time, holding a cup of tea in her hand and taking a sip from time to time, her eyes were lowered, she didn't know what she was thinking.There are four dishes and a soup and a bowl of rice on the table.

Qi and Mo approached Jiang Xiyao and sat down, slightly surprised: "Is this... waiting for me?"

Jiang Xiyao looked up at him and nodded slightly.Qi and Mo felt embarrassed for a while, Jiang Xiyao should have eaten it long ago on weekdays, but now they have waited until now for him.

"Have you had dinner?" Qi and Mo wanted to confirm that Jiang Xiyao hadn't eaten yet.

"used."

Qi and Mo were taken aback by Jiang Xiyao's answer, so what is she waiting here to tell him?

"Then do you have anything to say?" Qi Yumo asked.

"Well, we'll talk about it after you've finished eating." After Jiang Xiyao only said this, she stopped paying attention to Qi and Mo.

Seeing that Jiang Xiyao didn't pay attention to her anymore, and that she was really hungry, she hesitated for a moment, then picked up the porcelain bowl and started to gobble it up.

The more I eat, the more I feel that the taste of today's food is very different from usual, it seems that it is more delicious, and the food is obviously just heated.Someone who is hungry will naturally not appreciate the difference.

After sweeping the food on the table, Qi and Mo took out a silk handkerchief from their sleeves and gently wiped the corners of their mouths. Their movements were noble and elegant, and they were completely different from the previous appearance of wolfing down food.

After lightly picking up the teacup and taking a big sip, they looked at Jiang Xiyao, who was smiling but not smiling. Qi and Mo paused while holding the teacup, and they just forgot that there was such a person beside them.At the moment, his face couldn't help but a little red.

The corner of Jiang Xiyao's mouth twitched and asked, "Is it delicious?"

Qi and Mo subconsciously wanted to shake their heads to save face, but when they thought that they might have been stared at by the other party just now, they simply nodded generously in recognition.

"It's delicious, it seems that the chef's cooking skills have improved recently!" Qi Yumo, who was full of food and drink, frowned.

"Pfft." Chunzhu next to Jiang Xiyao smiled and said, "Since when did our young lady become a cook?"

Qi and Mo first smiled, and then realized what did Chunzhu just say?

Miss?Cook?

After reacting, he looked at Chunzhu in disbelief and said, "You said this was done by your lady?"

Seeing Qi Yumo's stunned expression, Chunzhu couldn't help but straighten his back and proudly said: "Yes! This is what our young lady specially..."

"Chunzhu." Jiang Xiyao said lightly, interrupting Chunzhu's next words.

Qi and Mo could also spy on her next words from her broken sentence, isn't it?Did Jiang Xiyao specially do it for him?

Qi and Mo's first reaction was not to be moved, but to be afraid, and to be courteous for nothing is either adultery or robbery.

Seeing Qi Yumo's frightened look, Jiang Xiyao raised his eyebrows and looked at Qi Yumo and asked, "What is the prince afraid of?"

Qi and Mo rubbed their noses and shook their heads silently. If he dared to say these words, Jiang Xiyao would probably turn around and leave immediately.

"Yeah." Jiang Xiyao didn't pay attention to his abnormality, and continued: "Remember to take the medicines on the table with you when you leave."

Qi Yumo had noticed a few exquisite small porcelain vases on the table as early as he entered the room, but at that time he hadn't even done the most basic thing to fill his stomach, so naturally he didn't pay attention to those things.

Now it seems that these small porcelain bottles are probably the real intention of Jiang Xiyao to wait for his return.

"This is?" Qi Yumo casually picked up an exquisite small porcelain bottle, looked around and asked Jiang Xiyao.

"Didn't you have studied medicine? Open it and smell it." Jiang Xiyao didn't speak, and Chunzhu next to him reminded Qi Yumo.

Qi and Mo raised their eyebrows, and they suddenly understood that this should be the same medicine as the medicine Jiang Xiyao gave him last time.

"Then I would like to thank Xiyao for the gift." Qi Yumo felt guilty for a moment, because he suspected Jiang Xiyao had plots against him just now.

What's more, even though his marriage to Jiang Xiyao was fake, Jiang Xiyao was considerate to her in every way.Right now, he decided to treat Jiang Xiyao better in the future, and not let her kindness down.

"Well, I'll see you off tomorrow." After Jiang Xiyao said this, she got up and left with Chunzhu.

Leaving Qi and Mo sitting alone in the hall, they opened the porcelain bottles one by one to confirm the medicines. In fact, there were labels on the outside of the porcelain bottles, but the lights were dim, and Qi and Mo didn't see them for a while.

The author has something to say:

Jiang Xiyao cornered Qi and Mo, raised her brows lightly: "Do you suspect that I have plots against you?"

Qi and Mo shrank their necks and laughed, "No, no..."

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Xiyao interrupted him: "I do have plans for you."

Qi and Mo were shocked.

Jiang Xiyao smiled slightly: "Plot your body, plot your heart."
