Powerful ministers are husbands

Chapter 64 The Beauty of Adulthood

"Run!" Since they all collided, why don't you take advantage of the trend and pull people to run quickly?

Pang Miao heard the sound of the tiger just now. It came from the east. He grabbed Cao Lu's hand and ran to the west without hesitation. A cut was drawn on the back of his hand, he shook it casually, and continued to run like crazy, for fear of being caught by the tiger if he walked slower.

A drop of blood fell on Cao Lu's face, he wiped it with his hand, and hurriedly grabbed Pang Miao, "Okay, we've gone a long way."

"Very far away?" Pang Miao was grabbed violently and almost staggered and bumped into Cao Lu's chest again.He looked back, in the lush forest, he couldn't tell where they were just now, "Why do I feel like I didn't run a few steps?"

"Because you're too nervous." Cao Lv replied with certainty.

Pang Miao thought it was reasonable. When he looked down, he saw the hideous face of a dead rabbit and the dark red blood on Cao Lu's skirt.

Cao Lv followed his gaze, looked at his dirty clothes, and dusted them casually.

"We...should be safe, right?" Pang Miao kicked the overgrown weeds, "It's a pity that I left all my rabbits where they were. Fortunately, you hunted enough rabbits."

"You wait for me where you are." Cao Lu said suddenly.

Pang Miao subconsciously asked, "Why?"

"I'm going to see if the tiger is still there. If there is a tiger here, I have to notify the government and set up barriers to prevent people from hunting here." Cao Lv pointed to a row of small trees and asked Pang Miao to stand over , and threw the two pheasants and hares hanging on his body to him to look at, and then went back the same way without looking back.

Pang Miao was guarding a pile of prey, squatting behind a bush, silently waiting for someone to come back.

Cao Lv just went to have a look, he wouldn't really overthink his strength to fight a tiger, so even if he did meet him, judging by his superb lightness kung fu, it would be easy to escape.

Finding out the truth is for the benefit of the people.He shouldn't stop Cao Lu within his power.

As the breeze blew, another fluff of a dandelion fluttered right on his nose.

"Ah Choo..." No one covered his mouth and nose this time.

Feeling much more refreshed after sneezing, Pang Miao opened his eyes, and what appeared in front of him was not green leaves and yellow flowers, but a fluffy dead rabbit face, looking over with dim eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Lu's face appeared next to the rabbit.

"I brought it back for you without any hassle."

Pang Miao took the rabbit, brimming with joy, and thanked Cao Lu repeatedly.

Cao Lu responded hastily, picked up the prey on the ground, and carried it on his shoulders, "Let's go, we still have to carry that wild boar."

"It was not taken away by wild beasts." Pang Miao looked at the arrow marks on the rabbit, "Is there a tiger in the forest?"

"Yes, I saw tiger paw prints."

Pang Miao's heart tightened, and he grabbed Cao Lu's arm, "Let's go back quickly."

Cao Lv turned his head, as if observing the surrounding terrain.Pang Miao didn't pay attention, the two took the wild boar and returned to the stream. Before they got close, they heard the voices of a man and a woman talking excitedly, as if they were arguing.

Cao Lv grabbed Pang Miao's arm and motioned him to hide beside him.

It was Meng Qinghua and Gongyu who were arguing by the stream, they were a little far away, and they didn't know what sad things they were talking about. Miss Meng kept wiping the corners of her eyes with her sleeves, and General Gongyu took her into his arms , so comforting.At first Meng Qinghua struggled a few times, then lay on her lover's chest and sobbed, and finally wiped away the tears on her cheeks, and smiled softly.

"There is always a solution, what's the use of crying."

When Pang Miao approached, he heard his cousin say so.

Without much delay, the few people packed the hunted game on both sides of the saddle and returned to the other garden.There were attendants unloading things to deal with, and someone else set up a fire on the balcony in the courtyard, and then took the cut and cleaned meat and put them neatly on the fire, and the oil that came out made a "sizzling" sound, accompanied by greedy people. The fragrance wafts away.

Meng Qinghua and Gongyu put meat into each other's bowls with a smile, eating with relish, and the atmosphere was lively.As for Pang Miao and Cao Lv, there was not only half a person's space between them, but they also ate their own food.

"Huh?" Meng Qingyu waited for the time when the meat was cooked, looked up at the two people who were slightly alienated opposite, leaned over and asked in a small voice in surprise: "Cousin, you didn't quarrel with your cousin's husband, did you?"

Pang Miao asked back, "Why did you say that?"

Meng Qinghua frowned, "Cousin, your voice..."

"I talked too much last night, I was a little dumb." Pang Miao lied with a bitter face.

"Oh..." Meng Qinghua didn't think too much, and explained: "Since you got married, the imperial capital said that you and your husband are very loving, but I see that you each eat your own food and don't talk to each other, so I thought you were arguing. .”

"No, nothing." Pang Miao forced a smile. There happened to be a large piece of wild pork cooked on the shelf. He quickly took off the pork, cut it into small pieces with a small knife, and then put it all into Cao Lu's bowl. Li, "I was too hungry just now, and I was greedy, hehe..." Then he took the initiative to move to Cao Lv's side, and sat next to each other, "Husband, husband, eat more, you see You’ve lost weight after staying at the border for so long.”

"Excuse me, ma'am." Cao Lv smiled decently, picked up a small piece of meat, "Come on, I will feed you first for my husband."

Meng Qinghua squinted and smiled, "Cousin, you guys are really loving, I'm really envious."

Pang Miao had no choice but to eat the barbecue with Cao Lu's chopsticks.

"Husband, you are so kind..." Pang Miao laughed dryly, leaning his head on Cao Lu's shoulder on purpose, pretending to be intimate and affectionate, "Cousin, don't leave General Gongyu alone?"

"It's good that you didn't quarrel." Meng Qinghua smiled happily and moved back to Gong Yuyixiao.

Pang Miao breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Meng Qinghua didn't see any clues.Since you are acting, you have to act well no matter who you are in front of, and you can't show problems to others, so as to avoid future troubles.

He suddenly remembered that he was still leaning on Cao Lu's arms, and shuddered, trying to move away, but he didn't want Cao Lu to wrap his arms around his shoulders.

"You have to act resembling, ma'am." Cao Lv smiled lowly, "It will be difficult for others to trust you if you show your flaws again."

"...Okay." Pang Miao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and then thought about how he had pretended to be in Cao's house for so long, so why should he care about the future?Anyway, through the clothes, physical contact is nothing.

Cao Lu came with two or three chopsticks of meat, and seeing Meng Qinghua's bright eyes, Pang Miao chose to put more meat in Cao Lu's bowl, and the two of them came and went, unknowingly the same as the two opposite up.

After drinking and eating, Pang Miao and Cao Lu went back to the study together.Cao Lv searched for a while in front of the cabinet, and took out a small white porcelain bottle.

"Huh?" He held up the small porcelain bottle and looked at Pang Miao.

"What's wrong?" Pang Miao asked blankly.

Cao Lu directly grabbed Pang Miao's hand and pointed to the blood-clotting wound on it, "It's better to deal with your injury."

Pang Miao patted the back of his hand and said indifferently, "It's nothing, just a small injury."

"Do you know what stabbed you just now? I just remembered," Cao Lv poured the medicine powder from the porcelain bottle into his palm, "It's poisonous." He narrowed his eyes and stared at Pang Miao's blanched body seriously. complexion.

"Isn't it an ordinary...weed?" Pang Miao slacked off, and Cao Lv pulled his hand over.He looked at the dark red wound curiously, feeling more and more that there was still a green light on it, so he couldn't help but leaned over to take a closer look, but he didn't want his head to bump into Cao Lv.

The smile in Cao Lu's eyes fell into Pang Miao's eyes, he was startled, he didn't care about Cao Lu's washing the back of his hands, applying medicine powder, and finally wrapping it carefully with white gauze.

"Okay." Cao Lu let go of Pang Miao's hand.

Pang Miao came back to his senses, glanced at his tidied hands, "Thank you, sorry for your inconvenience."

"No trouble, no trouble." Cao Lu lowered his head and slowly washed his hands, "You saved me from the tiger's mouth, and I will repay you with gratitude."

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and it was Gong Yuyixiao and Meng Qinghua who came.

"Cousin-in-law, I have something to say to my cousin alone, is that okay?" Meng Qinghua said softly.

"Okay." Cao Lu nodded, "Smile, I happen to have something to tell you."

The four left separately.Pang Miao and Meng Qinghua sat in the pavilion outside, and Jinxiu was pulled by Pang Miao to sit beside her.

"Cousin..." Meng Qinghua's expression was not as bright as before, and her slightly frowned brows were full of helplessness and sadness, "I know this is my own business and I shouldn't bother others, but I There is really no other way. After thinking about it, among the people I know, only my cousin can help me with this."

"What's the matter?" Pang Miao asked, trying not to say a word.

Meng Qinghua bit her lip and said, "You probably know, right? My relationship with General Gongyu... My parents have always disagreed with us being together. One is that the general is vulgar and barbaric, and won't treat me well. Second, I was reluctant to go to the frontier to suffer. But General Gongyu treated me very well, and I also yearned for the scenery of the frontier, and I was not afraid of suffering.

"In the past few years, I have been unable to convince my parents. Now things really can't be delayed any longer. They entrusted a matchmaker to talk about marriage. Today I had some disputes with General Gongyu... I want to elope with him, but He doesn't want me to be ridiculed and insulted, and I don't want him to give up his dream and stay in the imperial capital to do nothing."

Pang Miao asked, "You want me to help you get married?"

Meng Qinghua nodded vigorously, "Now, I just want to use the power of General Cao to suppress... I really can't think of any other way. The relatives in the family are either petty officials or businessmen. , I can't think of anyone else but you."

"This..." Pang Miao hesitated.

"Cousin." Meng Qinghua called out tremblingly, her teary eyes made people look very affectionate.

Pang Miao sighed. There is a saying that "the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring." It's not that he doesn't want to help his cousin, but he also has to consider his own ability and method of doing things.

"Let me think about it." He said, relying solely on power to "oppress", the third aunt and uncle would never accept General Gongyu as a son-in-law in their hearts, and would they die of embarrassment when the family met in the future?Moreover, it was rumored that General Cao was helping his subordinates to rob people's daughters. The King of Yan was eager to make a mistake and cause a bloodbath.

Such an answer made Meng Qinghua very happy. She stood up and thanked Pang Miao repeatedly.

"Cousin, shall I sleep with you tonight? Our sisters and I have never had a proper chat since we were young and learned female celebrities together."

"Pfft—" Jinxiu spat out a mouthful of tea.

"...No, no, no!" Pang Miao waved his hands again and again, the cousins ​​slept on the same bed, "I... I will kick the quilt at night, only the general will remember to cover me again!"

Meng Qinghua laughed, "I also have the habit of waking up in the middle of the night, don't worry, cousin..."

"No—" Pang Miao raised his hand and interrupted his cousin's continuation. He continued to make up reasons, "I'm cold and afraid of the cold, and now I'm used to sleeping with the general in my arms. It's comfortable." He showed an ugly shy smile, "Girl Home, it’s better not to catch the cold.”

"Okay, I won't bother my cousin and her husband." This reason successfully stopped Meng Qinghua, she raised her eyes, looked behind Pang Miao's shoulder, and suddenly smiled.

Meng Qinghua's appearance gave Pang Miao the feeling of being drenched in cold water for a moment. He turned around slowly and saw Cao Lv.
