Chapter 549 Xu Ying: I Miss Duke Anguo a Little Bit

"Duke Anguo is here"

Xu Ying's heart moved slightly. For someone like her who was demoted to slavery and lived in Tongque Garden without a name, if she wanted Chen Mo to be interested in her and even to be favored, she could only increase her presence in front of him.

If he hadn't come to Tongque Garden, Xu Ying would have had no way to increase her presence.

But now that he was here, Xu Ying had to do everything she could to take the initiative.

"Did she go to Madam Xiao?" Xu Ying said.

"Duke Anguo went to Princess Zhaoqing." The maid said.

"Sister-in-law."

Xu Ying whispered. Chu Ran used to be her eldest brother's wife, so she naturally had to call her sister-in-law.

Although her eldest brother was gone now, Chu Ran and her eldest brother were not actually husband and wife. She was awarded to Chen Mo by the emperor together with her, but they were once a family after all, so it was inevitable that she would feel a little strange.

But that person seemed to like this.

If she went there now, he would probably not be able to forget it even if he wanted to.

"Come in and dress me up." Xu Ying concentrated and said coldly.

"Yes."

Then the door opened and the maid walked in slowly.

...

The sky was dark and the light was fading.

In Chu Ran's room.

Inside the curtains, the fragrance of powder and heat mixed together, the atmosphere was charming, filling the surroundings, and making people intoxicated.

The doors and windows in the room were closed. As the sky darkened, the light in the room was also quite dim. With the help of the dim light, it can be seen that the dresses were thrown randomly under the soft couch.

Chen Mo rested his head on Chu Ran's snow-white thighs, enjoying the other's slender fingers, gently pressing on the acupuncture points on his head, and his eyes couldn't help but narrowed into a line.

And Chu Ran's face flushed, his head tilted to the side, trying not to look at the end of the bed, but his eyes were out of control, always peeking with his peripheral vision.

Although she is no longer the Princess of Huai, she is at least the legitimate daughter of the Xiao family and has a status in the Anguo Mansion. Unlike her slave status, she is willing to be lowly now.

"I will go to Huaizhou in two days. Yunxi, are you willing to go with me? It happens that your father is also in Huaizhou." Chen Mo said.

Xiao Yunxi looked up at Chen Mo and said vaguely: "Okay."

Since she was captured in Wuguan that day, she has not seen her parents for almost two years until now when she came to Linzhou. She also misses them a little. She also wants to go back to the Xiao family to see Zhenger.

Chen Mo's eyes moved down and saw Xiao Yunxi's long hair falling from the sky, covering her face, which made him reach out and lift her long hair, revealing her bright face as plump as the clouds.

At this moment, Xiao Yunxi seemed to moan softly, knowing that Chen Mo was looking at her, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and when she looked up at Chen Mo, her bright face showed a hint of shame and anger, and her complexion became even more ruddy. She felt strange in her heart and body, but she did not retaliate against Chen Mo for this.

"The previous letter said that your father had a hidden illness and had not recovered, but I did not know it. Instead, I asked him to come out to guard Huaizhou for me. I felt very guilty. This time when I go to Huaizhou, you also help me choose some gifts he likes. I have to thank him very much.

In addition, when you entered the house, Yunxi, the two elders were not in Xiangyang, and there was no witness. After going to Huaizhou to deal with the Fengzhou affairs this time, I will go to Jiangnan with you to visit your family and relatives." Chen Mo said.

Hearing this, Xiao Yunxi raised her head, and under her curved eyebrows, her beautiful eyes, as clear as water, showed a touch of emotion.

You know, she is just a concubine of the Duke of Anguo, and when she was with Chen Mo, she was not a virgin, and she had a child.

With Chen Mo's current status, since he is willing to accompany her back to the Xiao family in Jiangnan, it can be regarded as giving her enough face, and at the same time giving enough face to the Xiao family, so that those aristocratic families in Jiangnan can see that even if his brother is gone, the Xiao family is still very important in Chen Mo's heart.

Chu Ran, who was listening to this, felt a little strange in his heart. This man was quite good to his wife. If he served her well, he would become his wife in the future, maybe

While thinking, a soft voice sounded from outside the house: "Is the Duke of Anguo here?"

Chu Ran was stunned, and then startled. Isn't this Xu Ying?

She came to her yard to find Chen Mo, obviously she knew something.

Chu Ran's face flushed. It was inevitable that she would feel embarrassed and ashamed when someone familiar knew about her shameful things.

Just when Chu Ran was looking for an excuse to fool Xu Ying, Chen Mo spoke up: "It's the Queen."

Chu Ran: "???"

Xiao Yunxi gave Chen Mo a coquettish look and immediately sat up.

Outside the house, Xu Ying was delighted when she heard Chen Mo's address: "Duke Anguo, can I come in?"

"No." Chu Ran hurriedly whispered to Chen Mo, asking him not to let Xu Ying in.

But Chen Mo ignored Chu Ran's plea and said: "Come in, Queen."

"Sorry for disturbing you."

Although the door was closed, it was not bolted, and Xu Ying pushed the door open and walked in.

The air in the room was not as good as the air outside. What came to her face was the scent of rouge and the fragrance of flowers soaked in the water during bathing.

After Xu Ying closed the door, she walked in slowly.

Entering the inner room and bypassing the screen, she saw a bathtub that had not been removed yet, and the water in the tub had long been cold.

She looked inside and saw that the curtains had been drawn. Chen Mo was half-sitting on the bed, and Chu Ran was curled up in the quilt like a coward. Xiao Yunxi had already put on her dress and was hurriedly stuffing a handkerchief into her sleeve.

"Queen, it's a bit inconvenient for me. I apologize for not being able to get up to greet you." Chen Mo said with a chuckle.

"No problem." Xu Ying walked straight over, looked at Xiao Yunxi, and said, "This should be the noble daughter of the Xiao family, right?"

Xiao Yunxi wanted to take the opportunity to stay on the bed, but Chen Mo grabbed her hand and could only respond on the bed: "I have met the Queen."

Xiao Yunxi has a destiny.

Chu Ran: "..."

Why do you call her queen like that person?

"Excuse me." Xu Ying raised her hand, sat down on the couch without noticing anything, glanced at her, and said, "Where is His Highness Zhaoqing?"

"Here it is."

Chen Mo lifted the quilt, revealing Chu Ran's shrunken head.

Chu Ran's face turned red and she was too embarrassed to say hello to Xu Ying.

"Why is the Queen here?" Xiao Yunxi asked. She hoped that Xu Ying would leave with a little shame after seeing this.

But Xu Ying hit the ball straight and said: "Speaking of which, I live in Tongqueyuan with His Highness Zhaoqing, but I have never talked to His Highness. It just so happens that An Guogong is also here, and I also miss An Guogong a little, so... I just happened to come over, if you don’t mind, madam.”

After saying that, Xu Ying looked at Xiao Yunxi.

Xiao Yunxi: "..."

Good guy, are you so open-minded?

After hearing this, Chu Ran didn't dare to raise his head to meet him.
