Chapter 254 Two Disasters
Ning Cuo saw her eyes shining and couldn't help but smile, "What are you looking at?"
Xiao Tu fanned herself seductively and smiled, "Look at me, I've made an enemy before we even met!"
Ning Cuo put his arm around her slender waist, smiled wickedly, "Oh, how many are there?"
Xiao Tu glanced at him with a beautiful smile on her red lips, "They're all over the floor. You're really annoying!"
Ning Cuo's wicked smile deepened, and his narrow, beautiful eyes were filled with contempt as he said, "Don't be afraid. No matter how much you hate me, you have to hold it in for me!"
Xiao Tu's beautiful eyes smiled at him, "Bad guy," she said, shaking the maid's fan, and stood up with a lazy smile, "Okay, you go and do your own thing, I'll go find these people and have some fun, so that everyone won't be 'suffocated' by you!"
Ning Cuo watched her leave with a charming smile, and then his narrow eyes casually glanced behind him.
The officials of his department were now lowering their heads, waiting as quietly as chickens.
Ning Cuo put one hand elegantly behind his back, turned around and said calmly, "Let's go!"
Upon hearing this, everyone hurriedly followed.
Xiao Tu was followed by a large group of palace maids, and she walked into the imperial garden leisurely.
When the ladies around saw this, they all avoided and hid away.
Everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding and wanted to isolate themselves, so no one approached her.
Not far away, the wife of the Left Prime Minister and a group of women were watching this scene with sneers, secretly proud of what they had done.
So what if she was the wife of a governor, so what if she was a first-rank official in the court? She was a newly promoted lady of noble birth, and as long as they used some tricks, it would be a pipe dream for her to integrate into their circle.
After all, who among these noble ladies would not be jealous of an impure girl from a small family who had married twice and was so powerful that she could dominate them?
What's more, she is so beautiful and seductive. No matter how you look at her, she looks like a seductress who will bring disaster to the country and the people!
The man she married, Governor Ning, who was a man who brought chaos to the court and covered the sky with one hand, was simply a pair of disasters!
A group of women were hiding aside and watching the show coldly.
Xiao Tu, who was standing among the flowers, suddenly looked past the women in the garden and smiled at them with her red lips and curved eyes.
When the group of people who were watching the joke saw this, their faces froze for a moment, and then they hurriedly looked away as if nothing had happened.
Unexpectedly, the woman smiled at them, then waved her beauty fan and walked straight over with her men.
The women couldn't help but look tense and become a little nervous when they saw this.
Someone frowned and asked anxiously, "Why is she here?"
"That's right. Could it be that she knows that we are instigating everyone to isolate her?"
"From her expression, it seems like she is here with bad intentions. What should we do?"
Everyone spoke nervously, looking towards the wife of the Left Prime Minister.
The latter frowned and said to everyone, "Why are you panicking? Even if she knows, what can she do? She has evidence, so what can she do to us? You are just too timid. You are so panicked over such a small matter!"
When everyone heard this, they all agreed. The ladies ignored her, that was everyone's intention, and it was not their fault.
Besides, their husband's family is the sworn enemy of Duke Ning in the court, so they are naturally enemies too, and there is no need to pretend.
Could it be that the Governor, who is in charge of everything in the world, could care about these trivial matters among women?
Furthermore, even if Xiao's status is higher than theirs, there are so many of them and they all share the same hatred for the enemy. Are they still afraid of her?
The more the women thought about it, the more this made sense, and they immediately felt relieved.
But they were obviously wrong. Xiao Tu came to them not to cause trouble, but to laugh at them.
She just glanced at the people in the yard and found that among these women there were a few with big melons on their bodies. Her eyes lit up instantly. Aren't they coming?
She was about to step forward, when at this moment, a joyful figure ran over with a smile, "Fairy!"
Xiao Tu stopped and looked over with her beautiful eyes, "Princess Duan Yang?"
Princess Duanyang came up and grabbed her arm. Her face flushed with joy as she said, "Fairy, you are finally here. Duanyang has been waiting for you for a long time!"
Xiao Tu smiled and waved her fan, "Your Highness the Princess, do you want to talk to me about something?"
Princess Duanyang pulled her sleeve, her quiet face blushing as she said, "It's nothing, I just missed you after not seeing you for a few days."
Hearing this, Xiao Tu curled her red lips and said, "If you want to see me in the future, just go to the Governor's Mansion to find me."
Princess Duanyang looked very happy, "Really? Can I go?"
Xiao Tu didn't care, "What's wrong with that? Come if you want me!"
Princess Duanyang smiled and said, "It's a deal. I'm afraid I'll have to visit you more often from now on."
She has heard everything I and Xie Er said, that the fairy loves to do good deeds in the capital, and she also wants to follow the fairy to see it!
Seeing the starry eyes she believed in, Xiao Tu smiled and was about to speak, but her keen senses suddenly heard a quarrel not far behind her, and her name was mixed in!
Xiao Tu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, then looked over slowly.
In the flower pavilion not far away.
The wife of Marquis Yongchang looked particularly bad. She looked at the old wife of Marquis Yongchang in front of her and her own sister who was protecting her behind her with both anger and helplessness.
The old marquis's wife stared at the wife of the Yongchang Marquis, and said in a tone full of blame, "Your sister just wants to get to know the wife of the governor, but you are here to obstruct her. What do you want to do?"
Madam Yongchang looked at her mother-in-law and explained, "Mother, I am doing this for Zi Han's own good. She is still young and has a habit of speaking without restraint. She just had an argument with a few ladies of the imperial court. If we don't discipline her, she will only bring herself into trouble."
The old marquis' wife was extremely angry and said, "What do you mean it will only bring trouble to yourself? Don't think I don't know. Zi Han just told me that she was the one who spoke up for the Dugong's wife. That was all to impress the princess. Why did she work so hard? Wasn't it for your useless sister and for more connections for our Yongchang Marquis's Mansion? It would be fine if you didn't appreciate it, but instead you blamed her. What on earth are you thinking?"
Madam Yongchang frowned and said, "What does mother mean by that? As Zi Han's biological sister, how could I harm her? She wants to make plans for the Marquis's Mansion, but she has to have the ability to do so. Princess Duanyang and Madam Du are just two people. She thinks that she can play tricks in front of the two of them with her little cleverness. She is not doing good for the Marquis's Mansion. She is bringing trouble to the Marquis's Mansion."
Seeing that her daughter-in-law dared to teach her a lesson, the old marquis' wife became even more furious and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Your sister is sincere, but you say it is a trouble. You, the wife of the Marquis of Rongchang, have never made plans for the Marquis's mansion. You have watched your husband, who has talent but is frustrated, but you don't think about him at all. You always act like a talented lady of the Ji family, but you haven't laid an egg in many years of marriage!"
