Rebirth of marriage

When the guards of the Cao family saw Xie Jiu coming on horseback, they quickly drew their swords from their waists, preparing to kill the horse and injure the person when it approached.

Mo Li and Mo Qi, who were following closely, shouted hurriedly, "Get out of the way, get out of the way, Prince Xiao's Mansion is frightening."

Hearing that it was Prince Xiao's Mansion, and the guards from Cao Mansion recognized Gu Xiao, the guards drew their swords and hesitated for a moment. After a moment of hesitation, Xie Jiu and Gu Xiao's horses had already arrived at the carriage.

Gu Xiao jumped onto Xie Jiu's horse, then jumped up from the horse with him in his arms, and went directly to the carriage of Cao Zhiru, the fourth son of the Cao family.

The movement outside alarmed the people in the carriage. Cao Zhiru held the woman beside him in his arms and lifted the curtain to see the movement outside. The carriage suddenly split into four and spread out, leaving only a base.

Gu Xiao held Xie Jiu in his arms and slowly landed on the carriage shaft. Cao Zhiru, who did not know martial arts, protected his wife in his arms. The petite woman was almost completely wrapped in his arms.

Xie Jiu looked at the two of them with dark eyes.

Gu Xiao smiled slightly, "I'm offended. The horse suddenly frightened. I am eager to save people, so I put a little more force on my feet."

How can we see the people inside without kicking the carriage apart?

He turned to Mo Qi and ordered, "Remember to send some banknotes to Cao Mansion later as compensation for the carriage."

Cao Zhiru no longer wanted to see Gu Xiao, but he still needed superficial courtesy in front of others, not to mention that he had no official position.

He helped his wife up and blocked her behind him. After standing, the two of them bowed to Gu Xiao and saluted, "I have met King Xiao."

Without waiting for Gu Xiao to say goodbye, he stood up straight, without giving Gu Xiao and Xie Jiu a chance to see the woman behind him, and said with a smile, "There is no need for compensation, but if His Highness didn't say that he was frightened, Cao would have thought that His Highness He came here specifically to cause trouble for my uncle."

He is the fourth master of the Cao family and the most beloved son of Mrs. Cao. How could he not know the attitude of the Cao family and Gu Xiao, but still regard himself as his uncle.

Gu Xiao had never dealt with him head-on, so he couldn't help but look at him after hearing this, "Oh? If Fourth Master Cao thinks this way, could it be that he has done something wrong to me?"

"My sister is His Highness's legitimate mother, and she has a close relationship with her nephew and uncle. It's too late for Cao to protect His Highness, so how could he do something detrimental to His Highness?

It's just that my carriage is made of fine wood and made by famous craftsmen. His Highness kicked it away, which always makes people think more. "He always had a smile on his face, but he accused Gu Xiao of causing trouble on purpose.

Gu Xiao also smiled, "Then think less about it. As for my uncle, I'm afraid Fourth Master Cao won't dare to take it seriously. Being my uncle will not end well."

Cao Zhiru suppressed his smile slightly. No wonder his eldest brother sent a letter urging him to return to Beijing. This wolf cub hadn't seen him for several years, but he was more eloquent than before.

He originally wanted to suppress Gu Xiao as his uncle, but Gu Xiao didn't buy it at all and compared him to those cowards in the uncle's house.

Everyone in the capital didn't know that Qi Bo's mansion, Prince Xiao's maternal home, was completely destroyed, and the only surviving ones returned to their hometowns to make a living by farming. Outsiders didn't know that the Cao Mansion knew very well that Qi Bo's mansion was controlled by Gu Xiao. destroy.

The purpose is to avenge his crazy mother who died early.

If so, if he knew what happened back then, I'm afraid...

Cao Zhiru looked at Gu Xiao, if what happened to him back then was done by the Cao family, he would probably bite the Cao family like a mad dog.

It was indeed a trouble, and it would be better to get rid of it as soon as possible. With this thought in mind, he glanced behind the carriage without trace.

At this moment, a young man rushed onto the carriage and stood in front of the couple. He raised his chin and looked at Gu Xiao, "His Royal Highness Xiao is so overbearing. He damaged my carriage and shocked my parents, and he spoke so rudely.

Aren't you afraid that I will tell my uncle about this matter? Will my uncle go to the court tomorrow to ask Prince Xiao for an explanation? "

The young man is the son of Cao Zhiru and Wang Shuyan. Cao Chengle is sixteen years old and is the younger brother born from the same mother as Xie Jiu.

However, it is Yanyan’s character that appreciates the wine.

Gu Xiao's eyes fell on his face, and upon closer inspection, he found that his features were somewhat similar to Xie Jiu's, but unlike Xie Jiu's kind face, his face had a sinister expression.

His brain is incomparable to Jiu'er's. If he was afraid, he wouldn't be here. Besides, the little incident of frightening the horse will be reported to the court. How little does the Cao family care about the royal family.

It can be seen that this person is not only stupid, but also arrogant.

The contemptuous smile on Gu Xiao's lips was not concealed at all. She stopped looking at him and turned to look at Cao Zhiru and Wang Shuyan, who was tightly covered by their father and son. He sneered, "The fourth master and fourth wife of the Cao family are really good at raising their children." .”

Cao Chengle suddenly felt humiliated and said angrily, "King Xiao, please don't bully others too much."

Mo Qi shouted, "How shameless. Mr. Cao should bow to my prince when he sees him. As for damaging your carriage, my prince has already offended Mr. Cao, and the compensation will be sent to him later."

Mr. Cao, on the other hand, always accuses but keeps silent about complaints. I don’t know if it’s arrogance or ignorance. He even asks your uncle to bring up trivial matters in the court, and he doesn’t take the prince of the court seriously at all. Could it be that in the eyes of Mr. Cao? Here, this world already belongs to your Cao family. "

He had no good impression of the Cao family and his tone was cold and stern.

Cao Chengle suddenly clenched his fists, with murderous intent gathering in his eyes.

"Le'er, even if you are worried about your parents, you must not be rude to His Highness." Cao Zhiru reminded him.

They can assassinate King Xiao in private, but not in public!

Cao Chengle took his father's hint and loosened his fist, then reluctantly raised his hand to Gu Xiao.

The two of them always stood in front of Wang Shuyan. Xie Jiu's eyes fell on the exposed part of her luxurious skirt. From the behavior of their father and son, it could be seen that they were accustomed to protecting Wang Shuyan, so skillfully that it seemed like instinct.

It can be seen that he is used to it.

She spent a lot of money to marry into the Cao Mansion, but behaved in such a shameful manner. What on earth did she want?

Xie Jiu touched his waist with his fingers, took out a few silver needles, and held them between his fingers.

At this time, another girl of thirteen or fourteen years old came over with a skirt. She looked similar to Cao Zhiru. She was their daughter, Cao Xier.

She came up from the carriage from behind, saluted Gu Xiaofu, and then got into the carriage with the help of the maid. She walked to Wang Shuyan and asked worriedly, "Mom, are you okay?"

"Mom is okay." The woman spoke softly and reached out to hold her daughter's hand. "Are you okay?"

"My daughter is fine."

It was a harmonious scene of a loving mother and a filial daughter, loving each other. Gu Xiao held Xie Jiu's hand tightly and took the silver needle from her hand.

But at this moment, Cao Xi'er suddenly got angry and thanked her for the wine, "This matter arose because of this sister's poor riding skills, which shocked my mother. Should I apologize to my mother?"

Although Xie Jiu was wearing men's clothing, it did not hide her feminine features. She nodded and said, "That's true. I heard that people easily lose their souls when frightened."

She let go of Gu Xiao's hand and walked towards Wang Shuyan step by step, "Just in time, I know a traveling monk who is good at requieming souls. How about we go to the city together now, and I ask him to show it to the fourth lady as a token of appreciation. My apologies."

"No need." Before Wang Shuyan could speak, Cao Zhiru was the first to refuse.

He looked at the thank you wine in front of him, and after a moment, he returned to his smile and said, "Little girl, you should be more careful when riding horses in the future. Not every time you will be as lucky as today."

Xie Jiu smiled, "It doesn't matter, my luck has been pretty good lately, but I noticed that Fourth Master Cao's hall has turned dark, and I'm afraid it's going to be bad lately. If necessary, I can also ask the monk to take a look at it for you. He will not only make peace with you" The soul can also drive away ghosts.”

Cao Zhiru was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly, "It all depends on man-made things. Cao never believes in ghosts and gods."

He cupped his hands towards Gu Xiao and said, "Your Highness, Prince Xiao, we are still in a hurry to go home, so let's take a step forward."

After that, he turned around to help his wife. When he reached the footrest, he got out of the carriage first, then reached out to help his wife out of the carriage, and said warmly, "Be careful."

Very thoughtful and considerate.

Without his cover, Wang Shuyan was also revealed in front of Xie Jiu. A hollow gold mask almost covered her entire face. No wonder the Cao family didn't doubt Xie Jiu's appearance when they saw it. It turned out that Wang Shuyan concealed her appearance like this. .

"Brother, let's go." Seeing that her parents had reached the ground safely, Cao Xier pulled Cao Chengle's sleeves.

"Sister, go down first." Cao Chengle winked at her.

Cao Xi'er understood what her brother meant, stepped out of the carriage, and looked at her brother with bright eyes.

A cold smile appeared on Cao Chengle's lips. He stepped towards the pedal and suddenly turned around and kicked the carriage. He had practiced martial arts with martial arts masters for many years and had good skills. This kick could make the carriage fall apart with only the base left. Split into firewood.

He thought he was fast enough, and even if Xiao Wang and the two could avoid it in time, they would still be in trouble. However, before he could smile in triumph, he heard his mother's exclamation.
