Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 1169 One hundred and sixty-eight · Conversation

She could actually guess who wanted to see her, but it was the elders. She had already listened to Jin Yiwei, who escorted her up the mountain, and Song Xiangyu, who had reminded them that these Miao village elders seemed to be very hopeful to bring Xiao Heng and this saintess together. 's relatives. After the accident, they personally sent an elder down the mountain to discuss conditions with Xiao Heng.

   Reluctantly, even at this point, Xiao Heng did not let go.

   They left in a rage because of this, and later delivered the medicine. I heard that it was also because of Mr. Cui's good words.

  Thinking of this, Su Yao narrowed her eyes.

   Walking to the top of the mountain was not a short journey for Su Yao. She was a little out of strength and rested on the mountain wall for a long time before she calmed down and got up and continued to walk forward.

   At this moment, if she looked up, she just hit a pair of eyes.

   The owner of those eyes was also looking at her, sitting on a huge stone in the open space, just looking at her with leisure.

  Su invites her to look at it calmly.

Yancao's scalp was numb. After all, she has heard too many bizarre events in these villages these days. For her, these people are no different from the jackals, tigers and leopards now. No, maybe they are better than those jackals and tigers. Leopards are even more terrifying.

  Fortunately, I don't know how long I watched, the woman took her eyes back, got down from the stone lightly, stood on the top of the mountain and said to Su Yao, "Come up, my mother-in-law has been waiting for you for a long time."

   didn't ask Su Yao's identity.

Su Yao nodded. Since she didn't ask more questions, she didn't have much to do. She followed her up the stilted building, and went straight from the corridor to the last room. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the waterfall and lake behind the house. , could not help but marveled at such a beauty in my heart.

   Then she noticed that someone was already in the house.

   An old woman in her 60s or 70s was sitting at the tea table, looking at herself coldly.

   That mother-in-law's eyes are really not very comfortable, Su Yao did not avoid looking at her.

   After a while, the mother-in-law didn't seem to think that Su Yao could be so calm, so she could only open her mouth and cough: "Are you the younger sister of Uncle Yong Ding who was caught?"

  Su responded with a yes, and sat down opposite her according to Granny Black's wishes.

   Black mother-in-law suddenly reached out and grabbed Su Yao's hand.

   This time, Yancao was almost frightened, she hurriedly shouted, "Don't touch our girl!"

   Granny Hei's dark and turbid eyes stayed on her for a moment. Seeing Yancao took a step back in fright, she looked at Su Yao meaningfully: "Your maids know that we are scary, but are you not afraid of us?"

It's obvious whether a person is afraid or not. At first, she thought that Su Yao was pretending to be calm, but now she has grasped Su Yao's hand, and she can feel Su Yao's pulse all of a sudden. She didn't have much emotional change, so she naturally knew that Su Yao was really not afraid.

   It is really strange, these Han people are very taboo towards their Miao people, and they are also afraid of being vigilant.

   But Su Yao is not afraid at all?

Su Yao raised her eyebrows, looked at Granny Hei and smiled: "What should I be afraid of? Your stockades are afraid now, right? If the matter is not very urgent, you shouldn't have to propose to marry the eldest grandson and relatives. It's not us who should be worried now, is it?"

Granny Hei didn't expect her to be so determined and so calm, she gave Su Yao a deep look for a while: "You have sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and you can speak very well. I heard that your brother is the person that His Highness values ​​very much. , but now it seems that it may not be the case. What he values ​​is not your brother, but you, right?"

   Yancao's heart was raised in her throat, she was afraid that after the black mother-in-law knew about the relationship between Su Yao and Xiao Heng, she would also betray Su Yao.

   But Granny Black doesn't care what others are thinking, she just stares at Su Yao's expression, so that she can see some clues on her face.

  Unfortunately, Su Yao always had a smile on her face, as if she was not in a hurry: "You don't have to guess, mother-in-law, you asked me to come up, didn't you already confirm this?"

   Black mother-in-law was silent for a moment, she found that arguing with this little girl was really meaningless, because no matter what, the girl was not leaking and had no emotions at all.

She became impatient and pinched Su Yao's chin abruptly: "Little girl, I know you are different from ordinary girls, but since you are smart, you'd better be wise. Now there are two paths in front of you. , One is to persuade that His Royal Highness to agree to our request and marry our saint, and the other is to bring your brother's body down the mountain."

  Su invited a sideways glance at Bai Xue, who had been silent before, this is the saint of Heihua Miao Village, although her face was covered, but just by looking at her figure and eyes, she knew that she was a very beautiful girl.

   So beautiful and with such an identity, I must not worry about no one asking for marriage in the stockade.

   But the people of Miao Village insisted that she marry Xiao Heng.

Why?

  I have never heard of the precedent of the Miao girl marrying the imperial clan before. For them, what can Xiao Heng give them? So that they are so tireless in making this request?

Thinking like this, Su Yao also simply asked: "Since both parties have the sincerity of cooperation, why must it be involved in marriage? I don't quite understand, and I asked my mother-in-law to explain my doubts, and I really want to understand the reason. ."

Her tone and reaction were very flat, and this flatness also relaxed the tense nerves of black mother-in-law a little, and her tone eased a little, watching Su Yao was silent for a moment before saying: "We have to do this. The reason for doing it, if she doesn't do it, she will die."

who?

  Su invite looked at Bai Xue and couldn't help asking: "Why?"

   This is really an unbelievable request. After all, Xiao Heng has never come here before, and he has never seen this saint, and he doesn’t know him. Why would he die if he doesn’t marry?

   What if Xiao Heng didn't come to Yunnan to pacify the chaos? Or failed to pacify?

  Is this saint going to die?

The wrinkles on Granny Hei's face were a little deeper. Seeing Su Yao's questioning, she couldn't help but sigh deeply: "There is no reason, it is only because she is only able to marry this emperor's eldest grandson and leave here far away. There is a silver lining. Otherwise, if she stays here, sooner or later, she will be pulled out by the people from Jiangzhai, and she will die here."

  Su Yao couldn't understand these things about the Miao people at all, she just heard the key point, that is to leave here far away.
