The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

Chapter 1152 A fawning smile despite being filled with hatred

Minglang also looked up at the sky; what the young man said was indeed true.

The sky suddenly changed color; it looked like it was about to rain.

Minglang lowered his eyes in deep thought, and subtly gave Xiang Ke a wink.

He took Ke Lima's hand and started to act coquettishly.

"Sister, hurry up! My horse's eyes are all filled with sand. What if it gets sick from the rain if we wait any longer?"

Along the way, Xiang Ke's arrogance was mostly used for this moment, except when punishing evildoers.

"Yes, this young lady is absolutely right. You ladies are all noble people, and you've gotten soaked in the rain. The mountain path is also difficult to walk on."

Minglang glanced at Xiang Ke with displeasure, and Xiang Ke snorted and shook off her sleeve.

“We need to stay in one courtyard, and even the horses need to stay in the same courtyard as us. If you can meet this requirement, I will add another string of cash.”

When Minglang first mentioned it, the young man looked hesitant, but when he heard that he could get an extra string of cash, he immediately agreed.

"Of course, ladies, this way please."

Minglang whistled at the horses grazing nearby, and they all obediently came over.

Minglang naturally didn't miss the greedy look on the two young men's faces when they saw such a well-behaved horse.

"Let's go, you lead the way."

The young man responded, and Minglang mounted his horse. He saw from afar that the kitten had already gone ahead of them to scout out the situation.

The kitten seems to have never grown taller since it left the palace.

It's always been small, so small that you can easily tuck it into your pocket.

At first, Minglang was worried and spent a lot of time looking for delicious food for the kitten along the way.

It wasn't until the kitten noticed her worries that it grew to the size it should have in front of her.

Minglang finally put aside his unnecessary worries.

I remember the kitten saying: "I chose to be this big because it's getting colder and colder, and if I'm too big, it won't be as easy to snuggle into my owner's lap to sleep."

That makes perfect sense; she couldn't refute it at all.

The kitten ran very fast and soon disappeared from the bright view.

The others were used to the fact that something was missing from His Highness's arms.

Whenever His Highness arrives in a new place, his magical little cat disappears for a period of time.

Then it appears at the most crucial moment.

The last one they had seen who was this powerful was the little dog beside His Majesty.

Two young men walked ahead, while Minglang and his companion followed on horseback.

Minglang suddenly asked:

"What are your names?"

The young man who had initially struck up a conversation with them turned around and replied with a smile:

"My name is Chang Da, and this is my younger brother. He is a mute and his name is Chang Gou'er."

As Chang Da spoke, he patted the arm of the person next to him.

As if in response to a shock, Chang Gou'er hopped forward two steps.

His comical appearance made Xiang Ke laugh.

"What are you being cowardly for? Didn't you hear the lady ask your name?"

"At your rate, when will you ever get a wife to carry on the Chang family line?"

As if talking wasn't enough to vent his anger, Chang Da kicked Chang Gou'er twice more.

"Hurry back and tell the headman that some important people need to stay overnight."

Minglang watched Chang Dazhi pointing at Chang Gou'er as he stumbled and ran away, and he was furious. He kicked the air a few more times.

“I think your younger brother is deaf and mute, he’s a pitiful person too.”

Xiang Ke looked at that lonely and miserable figure and showed no hesitation in revealing his sympathy.

Chang Da, who is usually very talkative, finally fell silent for two seconds this time.

Then he smiled again and spoke:

“My younger brother had a bad life. When he was a child, he fell into the fire used for ancestral worship and his face was covered in so much skin. At that time, the family was poor and could not afford to treat him. We could only crush the herbs from the mountains and apply them to his face. His voice became hoarse from crying when he was a child.”

I can say a few words now, but I can't hear clearly. I don't know when it started, but even my hearing isn't working well anymore.

When Chang Da said these words, his tone was full of guilt towards his younger brother.

"It's also because I'm useless. If I were richer, I might have been able to take Gou'er to the capital to get some treatment. Maybe the doctors there are knowledgeable and can cure Gou'er's illness."

Upon hearing Chang Da mention the capital, everyone on horseback tensed up.

It was no secret in the capital that the Crown Princess was traveling outside the capital.

Because Her Highness the Crown Princess had been punishing evil and promoting good along the way, in order to avoid people guessing Her Highness the Crown Princess's next destination.

Their footprints on the map are all winding and circuitous.

Minglang thought of Marquis Jinxiang again.

She remembered that her mother had mentioned this Marquis of Jinxiang to her several times.

My ancestors were high-ranking officials, but they have gradually fallen into obscurity over the years.

If it weren't for the fact that the Empress Dowager abolished the hereditary system after ascending the throne.

The title of Marquis of Jinxiang can be inherited without being demoted.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have ended up as an obscure marquis, so obscure that he couldn't have become.

"Where are you ladies from? Is it the capital? I wonder if the doctors in the capital are really as skilled as the rumors say."

Chang Da's tone was filled with anticipation for getting his younger brother medical treatment.

This didn't stop Qin Xiaosi from lightly tapping his legs on the horse's back, causing the horse to speed up and place the knife against Chang Da's neck.

"How dare you inquire about Miss's affairs so casually?"

Feeling the coldness on his neck, Chang Dalian didn't dare to walk anymore.

They stood there, stunned.

"Please spare my life, please spare my life! I will never dare to do it again, really, I will never dare to do it again."

Despite Chang Da's repeated pleas for mercy, Qin Xiaosi never removed the knife from his neck.

Qin Xiaosi is the Crown Princess's personal bodyguard. Here, apart from the Crown Princess, no one can order him around.

Minglang rode his horse and led the others around Qin Xiaosi and Chang Da.

After walking a distance, he called out lightly, "Little Four."

Qin Xiaosi then sheathed his sword and rode his horse to follow the Crown Princess.

Chang Da stretched his stiff neck, but it still felt a little sore.

He touched it and saw the blood on his hand.

His eyes were filled with anger and hatred.

At this moment, Qin Xiaosi suddenly turned around, and Chang Da's expression didn't have time to change.

What Qin Xiaosi saw was a comical appearance: his eyes blazing with rage, yet his face wore a fawning smile.

Now Qin Xiaosi was absolutely certain that there was something wrong with this estate.

Qin Xiaosi snorted coldly, rode his horse to catch up with His Highness, and told him about the matter.

Their voices drifted away in the wind, and by the time Chang Da Tuo ran up to them, the conversation was already over.

He strained his ears but still heard nothing.

"Our estate is just ahead. Please come this way, Miss. There's a low slope over there that might hurt the horse."

Chang Da looked as if he had been frightened by Qin Xiao Si's earlier action.

They became more careful in their words and actions.

Approaching the village, without even going inside, Minglang immediately understood what Qin Xiaosi meant by "there's a problem."
