"How is Bogao's relationship with Liu Prefecture's Governor?"
Madam Qi took off her cloak to keep out the cold and handed it to the maid.
"We have a good relationship. We used to go together …" Huang Song said casually. When his eyes met his wife's stern eyes, he immediately swallowed the rest of his words. It was not convenient to talk about their romantic past. "… Anyway, we have a good personal relationship."
Fortunately, Lady Qi didn't care about what he didn't finish.
"I think that Liu Prefecture's Overseer is extraordinarily ambitious. After today's conversation, I feel that her restoring her identity as a woman may not be passive, but active. "Madam Qi sat down, picked up the tea that the maid had poured for her, and took a sip to moisten her mouth. Her words were astonishing.
Huang Song frowned and said, "That's impossible. Lanting's identity is well hidden. If it weren't for today's incident, I'm afraid I wouldn't have discovered it. Furthermore, what good was there in restoring his identity? If Lanting had been a man, he would have been conferred the title of Governor of Wanzhou. With her father's power, he would have been able to sit firmly in the north. The Imperial Court was on the brink of death, and it was clear that there was no hope for them to be saved. This was merely the final radiance of the setting sun … Other than causing trouble for him, what other benefits did she gain from returning to her female identity? If you hide it, your future will be limitless. Why bother? "
As for the marriage of children?
Compared to his future prospects, this was not a problem at all.
As for having children, she could find a man she liked in private. Wouldn't it be easy for her to give birth to a child for herself?
As for the father of the child, he could either keep him or kill him. There were ways to deal with him without leaving any traces.
If it wasn't for someone else exposing her or her own stupidity, how could she have discovered her true identity?
How could they find out?
Who would suspect that the playmate they drank with all day was a woman?
Whether it was his words, actions, or style of doing things, he couldn't see any flaws at all.
As for Jiang Pengji's appearance, according to the current trend, there were many men who were more effeminate than her.
Lady Qi raised her eyelids and rolled her eyes at her husband. "This is a woman's intuition. What do you know? Today, he had a pleasant conversation with the Governor of Liuzhou. He did not feel the slightest bit unhappy that his identity had been exposed, nor did he feel confused or hesitant about the outside world. On the contrary, he seemed to have been prepared. If that's really the case, then this Liu Province Overseer's ambition is definitely greater than I imagined! "
Faced with his wife's speculation, Huang Song only gave one response.
"Oh."
Lady Qi said, "Oh what? Give me some reaction."
Huang Song laughed and said, "What kind of reaction can your husband give? Lanting was ambitious. This was not the first time he had found out about this. Their current relationship was still fine, so they could talk about the future in the future. I can't cut ties with Lanting just because she's too ambitious, right? "
Madam Qi said, "Even so, you have to be prepared. You have to keep an eye on Haozhou. This place is located at the border between the north and the south …"
Based on the current development of the two of them, there would definitely be a day when their interests would collide.
Huang Song smiled and raised his hand to pull his wife into his arms. The couple's posture was intimate, as if they were hugging a doll.
He said in a low voice, "It's not that I don't understand Madam's thoughts, but now is not the time. Lanting is powerful and is entrenched in the north. However, that is only on the surface. In the next few years, I will only cooperate with her. There will be no conflict. It's too early for you to worry. "
"Why?" Madam Qi was surprised.
Huang Song said in a low voice, "In the north, there are not only the Liu father and son, but also the Northern Borderline. As long as the Northern Borderline existed, Lanting's power would be restricted to the Northern Borderline. Starting a dispute with her because of me would be courting death. She will peacefully develop to the north, and I will develop from the north to the south. We will form an alliance and not interfere with each other. When she deals with the Northern Borderline, we will be completely at odds with each other. Do you understand? "
Personal friendship was personal, and official business was official business.
Not only did Jiang Pengji see it clearly, but Huang Song also understood it.
United, they were friends. Divided, they were enemies. Whether they were enemies or friends depended on their standpoint.
"Originally, I thought that Lanting's chances of winning against the forces of the Northern Borderline were not high. Now that I look at it, I feel that the chances are 50-50." Huang Song lowered his eyes slightly and said, "In terms of magnanimity alone, there are very few in the world who can surpass her. Unfortunately, she is not a man."
Madam Qi raised her hand and pinched the soft flesh on his waist.
She bared her canine teeth and said, "What's wrong with being a woman? Can't women do big things? "
"Madam, I didn't mean that … It hurts, it hurts. Let go. My flesh is about to turn purple …"
Huang Song begged for mercy repeatedly. Madam Qi only let go after a while.
"Then do you hope that she can win against the Northern Borderline?"
"The Northern Borderline is an outsider. How many innocent people have been slaughtered? Naturally, I hope that Lanting can win. If she is unable to do so, I will definitely do my best to help her. " Huang Song secretly sucked in a breath of cold air and rubbed the area pitifully. Madam Qi's grip was still so strong.
Women were really not to be trifled with.
As he rubbed, he complained, "Sigh, Madam has caused unnecessary trouble this time. I will have to spend some of my private money again."
Madam Qi's ears pricked up. "Are you saying that I have caused unnecessary trouble for you?"
Huang Song bit her earlobe and said with a smile, "If you had given me something else, others would only think that I have a good personal relationship with Lanting. It would be normal for Madam to visit and thank me. But now, I have given her rouge and face powder. Even if Lanting doesn't mind, it is difficult to guarantee that outsiders will not maliciously gossip and drive a wedge between us. To be safe, I have to personally visit her tomorrow and give her a double gift. I have to be serious. "
Madam Qi pouted but did not say anything.
Huang Song continued, "… Otherwise, if others deliberately humiliate Lanting in the future and ask the Lady of the Inner House to step in for everything, guess what will happen? Not only will she deal with those people, but she will also deal with your husband. Just in case, I will spend money to avert disaster. "
It had to be said that Huang Song still had some understanding of Jiang Pengji.
Madam Qi said, "That's fine. I will go to the storeroom again and pick some good ones."
The couple had not seen each other for a long time, and it was far better than being newlyweds. That night, they were inseparable.
As soon as they stopped, the flustered voice of the maid came from outside.
At the same time, Jiang Pengji, who was about to rest, also received similar news.
"The corpse is gone?"
Jiang Pengji wore a cloak to ward off the cold and held a roll of bamboo slips in her hand. The servant who was reporting to her turned pale.
The servant trembled and said, "Yes, I heard that a gust of demonic wind blew past and the remains of the corpse disappeared."
His lord was the main force in killing the demon. It was difficult to guarantee that the demon would not cause trouble for his lord after it was resurrected.
Thinking that there would be a demon secretly watching the mansion, the servant's face turned ashen.
"If it's gone, then it's gone. Is there a need to make such a fuss?" Jiang Pengji waved her hand to dismiss the servant.
Looking at the light on the lamp, Jiang Pengji reached out and teased the flame.
"It has been killed three times and resurrected three times. I suppose that part of the popularity points stored in the system have been consumed …"
She muttered in a low voice, her eyes filled with a cold light.
