When I got home, I sat on the soft and comfortable bed. My tense nerves finally relaxed. Cheng Wu helped me lay out the blanket and smiled."Second Young Lady is really impressive today. That General Cao is such a powerful person, but he doesn't even put the Middle Minister in his eyes. He actually made Young Lady speechless with just a few words.”
"A constant attendant?" What was that?
" The Assistant Minister is... is..." Cheng Wu blushed and stuttered for a long time before saying,""It's those who have been serving the emperor in the palace…Daren.”She saw that I was about to speak and quickly added,"That's it. I don't know what it means to be chaste. There's no need to ask.”
Who asked you this? You don't know, but I do. I stuck out my tongue,"Did General Cao ever offend the Minister?"”
"Yes, I am." Cheng Wu nodded and said," I heard from the old master that when General Cao was twenty years old, he was a captain in the northern part of Luoyang. There was once when the uncle of the constant attendant, Lord Qian Shuo, violated the night ban. He went out at night with a knife and was caught by General Cao. He didn't give Lord Qian any face and gave him twenty slaps on the spot.”
"Is that so? " He's so powerful…" I vaguely recalled his cold gaze and felt a little uneasy. One look and one could tell that this guy was very bold. He was not afraid of gods and ghosts, so it was better to not provoke him. 'However, there's something wrong with the way he looks at Mrs. Qiao. I swear on my honor as a gossip fan that there's definitely something wrong. Nothing will happen, right?'
"My father…what kind of high official is he?" I see that Cao Cao immediately became polite after hearing father's name. Could it be that father is more powerful than the constant attendant?”
Cheng Wu blinked her eyes in confusion." I only know that you're a Guanglu doctor. You used to be a marshal, but you can't compare to the constant attendants."”
It seemed that I couldn't get anything out of him. I replied with an " oh " and didn't say anything.
Qiao Xuan…Who was Qiao Xuan? I thought about it for a long time, but I still didn't have any clues. Seriously, I'm starting to regret not listening to Old Man Wu's lecture properly. If I had known that I would transmigrate one day, I would have memorized the entire Romance of the Three Kingdoms back then. At least I could be a prophet here and swindle people. Why would I be so clueless now?
To be honest, I only know about the Jiangdong beauties, Big and Little Qiao. It's not that they're famous, but their husbands are too famous. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are both first-class handsome men. They're also top-notch by modern standards. They don't have three wives or four concubines, but they died too early...
I was bored and let my imagination run wild. Suddenly, I felt that something was wrong. Wait a minute, Jiang Dong's Second Bridge is a sister, and so is Chaorong and I…Although I don't know anything about Xiao and Xiao Qiao's background, they were probably seventeen or eighteen when they got married, so that should be the age of Chaorong and me. Could it be that…my heart skipped a beat? I actually casually transmigrated and became a famous beauty in history.
However, all the signs indicated that this was highly possible.
I leaned against the bed and felt my heart beat rapidly. Doesn't this mean that I will marry Zhou Yu in the future? 'F * ck, although he's my idol, he died at the age of 36. I don't like being a widow…'
" Second Miss, Second Miss." Cheng Wu suddenly called out in my ear.
I suddenly woke up and raised my head.”
Cheng Wu pointed to the door and said,"Second Miss, just now, Young Master Guo's servant came over and said that Young Master Guo had something to say to you. He asked you to go to the study."?”
I was stunned. What was this? Why would he ask me to go over? After all, I'm a loli too. I'm not so bored that I think he'll like a seven or eight-year-old loli and ask me out for a date. Or did what happened during the day spread to his ears and made him suspicious?
Actually, I think it's better not to go, but…
I suddenly thought of his gentle and somewhat distant gaze. For some reason, I actually felt a little dazed. This person, from head to toe, from his appearance to his temperament, was filled with an inexplicable temptation, but it was as if he was coldly watching the world from a far away place, and everything had nothing to do with him.
Actually, I…really want to see him alone again…
I stood up immediately." Let's go. I'll go and see him."”
I ran out of the room in a flash. Cheng Wu and Jiang Ge carried lanterns and hurriedly followed me. It was already night time. It was dark outside and very quiet. If it was any other time, I would have already rested. In the entire Qiao Manor, only Lord Qiao's study and Mister Guo's house in the backyard had lights on.
I skillfully turned a corner and ran to the door of Mr. Guo's room. Just as I was about to push the door open, Mr. Guo's voice came from inside.
"Second Miss, can you come in alone?”
Cheng Wu and Jiang Ge looked at each other and hesitated. Although I am only seven or eight years old, I am still a girl. It is inappropriate for me to go to a man's room alone in the middle of the night.
I waved my hand." Wait at the door."”Without waiting for them to speak, he flashed in and closed the door behind me.
The room was very quiet. There was only one light on, so it was a little dark. The window facing the east was wide open, and some moonlight shone through.
Young Master Guo leaned against the window, his beautiful lips curled into an indifferent smile. Under the pale moonlight, he looked even more elegant.
"Second Miss, please take a seat."
I hesitated for a moment before finding a wooden chair by the door and sitting down.
Young Master Guo saw that I was sitting so far away and shook his head with a light smile. He walked over and gently picked up the fine porcelain teapot on the table with his slender jade-like hands. He poured a cup of tea and handed it to me.
I took the cup and took a sip of water. The warm liquid flowed into my body and I suddenly felt calm.
"Young Master Guo, why did you call me here?”
He looked at me." I heard that the Second Young Lady went to the Taoist temple with the Madam to fulfill her wish today. On the way, she met Lord Cao.”
I nodded. That's right, it was indeed for this matter. But what did this have to do with him?
He didn't seem to care about my answer and continued,"Second Miss, do you know that once you returned, this matter reached Lord Qiao's ears? Sir Qiao had returned early today and called Madam over to reprimand her. Madam has been crying all night."
What was that? There was such a thing? I immediately frowned. It's not that I want to say this, but my father is really not much. I've been here for a few months, but I've never heard of him coming back before midnight. Mrs. Qiao looked like a widow. It was rare for him to come back so early, and he was here to denounce Mrs. Qiao. It was no wonder that she was upset.
I looked at Mister Guo, but I couldn't complain to him. After all, Mister Qiao was my father, so it wasn't appropriate to speak ill of him. I stood up and said,"I…I'm going to see Mother…"
"Wait." Guo Gongzi caught up and grabbed my wrist." I haven't finished speaking.”
I subconsciously struggled and easily broke free. Young Master Guo did not exert much strength in his hands. When I turned around, he had already retracted his right hand. He said indifferently,"Second Miss, Furen is already asleep. Don't wake her up. I didn't invite Second Miss here for Furen's matter.”
"Then why?"
He sighed slightly." It's about Master Qiao. I think I have to explain it to Second Miss first."”
