emperor cold concubine

Chapter 23
Su Mo and Cang Hao walked in side by side, glanced lazily around, Su Mo said lightly: "It's really messy."

I saw several men in the room, except for Nan Yun and Chu Han, all with their upper body naked.Fourteen and Shu He each occupied the only two couches in the house, and they lay faceless on the couches. When they saw Su Mo coming in, they got up in a panic, but they were so painful that they pulled the pain on their backs too hard. Grinning his teeth, his face was distorted.A few small bowls were placed on the round table in the center of the room, and inside were crystal-like transparent ointments that were exuding a faint cool smell. Mo Li, Yue Xiao, and Shu Tong, who were sitting on the surrounding seats with straight backs, also got up instantly , quickly picked up the clothes closest to him and put them on his body to cover his naked body, making him look even more disheveled in a hurry.

"The figure is pretty good, very eye-catching." Su Mo's indifferent tone seemed to be teasing.

Everyone seemed to have never heard of it, and knelt down on one knee in unison: "I have seen the master, I have seen the last master."

Without saying a word, Cang Hao sat down on the seat near the window with an interesting smile on his lips.

"Well, get up now."

Seeing the different looks of the people, Su Mo smiled lazily: "They are all big men, so what are you avoiding, and you are afraid that someone will look at your body."

Everyone was silent, but their expressions were colorful and wonderful. Fourteen raised his head to look at her, and his expression became even more strange.

Su Mo raised her eyebrows: "Speak up if you have something to say."

Fourteen hesitated: "Sister-in-law, you...you are a woman." Shouldn't women be more reserved?
"So what?" Su Mo squinted at him, "I never said I was a man."

Fourteen choked, and was suddenly speechless.

"Shu Tong, your acting skills are pretty good." Suddenly, such a lazy remark made everyone's expressions change.

Shu Tong's face turned pale, and he knelt down without saying a word: "This subordinate is guilty."

"Nan Yun, you're not bad." Su Mo squinted at Nan Yun who had retreated to the corner, "Under my nose, you're playing tricks, huh?"

Poor Nanyun is so innocent, he is completely obeying orders, but he secretly glanced at his master, smiling, and seemed to be in a good mood, but he had no intention of speaking for himself at all, he sighed inwardly, and obediently stepped forward and knelt down: "The subordinate is guilty."

Thinking of how long she had been listening outside, everyone's expressions became tense, and they wanted to plead guilty, Su Mo said lightly: "It's okay, let's forgive it, don't say that I am a master who likes to abuse people, this time the matter ends here That's it." He waved his hand, "You two get up too."

"Master Xie Mo."

When everyone stood up, they said coldly: "Su Mo has never been a soft-hearted person, and next time, don't beg for mercy. I don't have that much patience to show kindness and generosity. It would be a happy thing to end it.”

No one dared to speak.

"Okay, what are you supposed to do, Nagumo, go out with me for a walk."

"Yes."

Watching the two figures disappear at the door, Cang Hao turned his eyes, casually glanced at everyone one by one, and said calmly: "Any complaints?"

Complaints? Who dares to have them?
Everyone bowed their heads and did not answer, only Yue Xiao stepped forward and bowed, and said in a warm voice: "The subordinates are convinced of the last master, and dare not complain any more."

Cang Hao snorted lightly: "Don't dare, is there any more?"

Yue Xiao whispered: "No, and I dare not have it."

"Chu Han."

"exist."

"How are they hurt?"

Chu Han respectfully said: "Fortunately, they are all martial arts practitioners. Although the injuries are not serious, they are not serious, no bones are injured, but the medicine needs to be changed every day to take good care of them. It is best not to use martial arts within three days. "

Thirty spine rods, if placed on ordinary people, are enough to take away half of life.

"Mo Li."

Mo Li took a step forward, respectfully said: "Yes."

Cang Hao handed him a thin booklet: "Here are the detailed information and topographic maps of Langzhou and its surrounding areas. Keep it all in your mind within three days. , you have enough time to get there and arrange everything."

Mo Li stretched out his hand to take it, without any unnecessary nonsense, he respectfully accepted the order: "Yes."

"Then I have to stay for three more days." In front of Cang Hao, only Shu He, who dared to be so presumptuous, said, "Master, I haven't seen you for a long time. Before I came, I made arrangements for things in Mianzhou." Well, within a month, I promise nothing will happen."

"Um?"

"Really, I originally thought that I finally saw the master once, and planned to stay here for a while, who knows that the master will leave for Langzhou again..." At this point, there is only a murmur in the throat "... ...Let the ink ice cubes accompany you..."

Cang Hao finally looked up at him, and smiled casually: "Do you have an opinion?"

Shu He shrank his neck and slumped his shoulders: "No."

The phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "What's happened to He Ling, the third prince of Nanyue recently?"

"The old emperor's health is failing. He Ling is investigating the prince's whereabouts. He will be busy dealing with the prince for a period of time. He has no time to think about other things."

"The emperor's health is failing?" Fourteen was surprised. "It doesn't make sense. He is not yet 50 years old this year, and he takes a lot of precious supplements every year. Each pair is enough to cover the living expenses of ordinary people for two or three years."

Chu Han interjected: "Tonics are poisonous if taken improperly. Not to mention, if someone with a heart does it, it is impossible to guard against." Speaking of this, he remembered something, bowed and said: "Master, I have nothing to do here, I will go down first Give them medicine."

Cang Hao nodded.

"If the news is true, how dare the prince leave the palace at such a sensitive time?" Shu Tong frowned slightly, "Isn't he afraid that the third prince will suddenly launch a palace change?" By then, it will be too late.

"He Ling doesn't have the guts yet." Yue Xiao, who controls the business transactions of Cang Hao's various countries, naturally has the same control over the royal families of each country, "First of all, most of the military power in Nanyue Kingdom is controlled by Xue Qian, and Xue Qian is The prince's uncle, as long as the prince survives, even if he becomes the emperor, that position will not be secure; secondly, the prince himself is not a stupid person, since he dared to leave when the emperor was critically ill and took away most of the Xue family's army, he must stay. If the third prince dares to take the risk, he will give the prince a chance to destroy him."

"That's right." Shu He nodded, "The news came out from our spies stationed in the Nanyue royal family that there was a very mysterious death guard by the emperor's side. The current leader of the current leader is He Qing, the second prince of Nanyue Shenlong who sees his head but never tail, so this death guard is also called Qingyan. Without the slightest weakness, as long as he is there, anyone who wants to take the throne will have to worry about their own weight."

"So the top priority is that the third prince must first find a way to cut off the power of the prince."

"But with his strength alone, it's not easy? The Xue family army is not a vegetarian."

Yue Xiao smiled gently: "Don't forget who his wife is."

Fourteen came to a sudden: "The court's military strength is insufficient, so we will unite with the forces of the rivers and lakes. These three princes are indeed not a fuel-efficient lamp."

Mo Li frowned coldly: "No matter how powerful the world is, it is still not enough to compete with the imperial army."

"That's right." Yue Xiao nodded and smiled, "So he must rely on other forces."

Shu He suddenly thought of the master Cang Hao sent to him a few days ago, and after thinking about it, he understood: "So, the princes of the two countries colluded with each other through the Dragon and Phoenix Gang, and reached some kind of agreement." Jianmei slightly Yang immediately sneered: "Isn't the general guarding the border at present the cousin of His Royal Highness King An? In this way, it would be very convenient to work together."

Cang Hao tapped the back of the chair lightly with his finger, listening to everyone talking, his expression was lazy and comfortable, without any impatience.

With a slight signal, Yue Xiao respectfully handed over a cup of fragrant tea, Cang Hao took it, lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip, the faint tea fragrance overflowed in his mouth in an instant, Cang Hao slightly raised his lips and smiled: "Is it all finished?"

"Uh...not yet." Shu He looked at him secretly, "Master, there is another piece of news."

The smile on Cang Hao's lips deepened, and the bottom of the phoenix eyes turned with a gloomy light, like a monster coming to the world, the charm suddenly appeared, but it also made people feel nervous and frightened instantly, and felt cold all over.

The lazy and magnetic voice was soft to the extreme: "Mo Li, pull him out and hit him with another thirty army sticks."

Mo Li respectfully accepted the order: "Yes."

"Ah! Don't—" Shu He screamed, "Master, I was wrong, Mo Bingkuo, let me go! Master, I am seriously injured! Another thirty army sticks will kill me, master, you are so serious! I'm willing to die..."

Fourteen gloated and smiled, Shu Tong rubbed his forehead and sighed, Yue Xiao pursed his lips and smiled lightly, Mo Li frowned, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, but he still let him go under Cang Hao's signal.

"It's really promising." He sneered coldly.

Shu He glared at him fiercely, but really didn't dare to speak back in front of Cang Hao, so he had to swallow his breath temporarily.

"Master, Languo intends to send the eldest princess to Qianguo to get married."

Everyone was taken aback.

Although Guizhou is small, it is a treasure land for raising war horses. It has business relations with all four countries. Over the years, several neighboring countries have been eyeing it, wanting to eat this piece of fat, but they are also hindered by other powerful countries. Do it rashly, now, this marriage?
The purpose is too obvious.

Yue Xiao smiled softly: "If you really want to get married, why not just marry the master, what's the use of getting married to Qian Guo?"

As early as seven years ago, Qian State had existed in name only, but the world didn't know it.

"Ninth brother has Su Mo, so he doesn't care about the eldest princess and the third princess."

Shu He said: "The master didn't know Su Mo before... Uh, master Mo, no, it's not rare either."

Fourteen nodded: "Now it's even less rare."

These two living treasures couldn't stop talking nonsense in front of their masters.

Shu Tong was really speechless with anger.

"Shuhe, hurry back to Mianzhou in three days, and the soldiers will practice day and night without slacking off. It will definitely come in handy for at most two months."

Three days later.The corner of Shu He's mouth raised, and he happily accepted the order: "Yes."

"Yue Xiao, arrange the affairs of Jiyue Villa in the next few days, and go to Langzhou with the king in three days."

"Yes."

"Fourteen, select a group of experts from Xueyue Pavilion, arrive at Yunlian Mountain in South Vietnam leading to Langzhou before the end of March, and help them if necessary."

Who they are referring to, although it is not strictly clear, Fourteen knows it well, and accepts orders solemnly.

After ordering what should be ordered, and the discussion should be over here, Cang Hao put down his cup and stood up, "If you have nothing to do, let's go back to rest."

"Master." Shu He yelled, seeing Cang Hao raised his eyebrows and looked over, but he pursed his lips, and suddenly knelt down, his black pupils drooped, and instead of wanton flamboyance, he showed a bit of restrained respect and Feeling a bit of guilt, "Shuhe overestimated himself today, not only embarrassing the master, but also making the master worry."

Hearing this, Cang Hao looked down at his drooping head, and said calmly, "Are you asking for punishment?"

Shu He trembled slightly, his body trembled involuntarily, his head lowered even lower, "Yes."

When Shuhe knelt down, the people who had taken half a step back and stood bowed were also silent when they heard the words. If they dared to ask for a few words of love from Su Mo, they dared not say a word to Cang Hao at this time. Say nothing, let alone "save the life of Shuhe with one arm", just quietly looking down at the ground.

Cang Hao bent his fingers and tapped him on the top of the head: "It's not necessarily a bad thing for you to lose face once in a while, besides, it's all your own. Since Mo'er has already been punished and will not pursue it anymore, this king will also There is no reason to punish you again, get up."

Although the force was not light, and the top of the head was aching, Shuhe felt relieved because of his habitual action that seemed to be a little bit painful. This obviously shows that Cang Hao didn't take what happened today to his heart. , It was only at this time that everyone was really relieved.

There is no need for Cang Hao to mention it specifically, and several people know that no matter whether the reason for this kind of thing is frivolity or ignorance, it is enough to learn a lesson once it happens. If there is a next time, I am afraid it will be as Su Mo said Yes, it is indeed a happy thing to be able to make up for yourself.
