Chapter 70 The White Horse is the Prince



Chapter 70 The White Horse is the Prince

Zhao Wudi's face was as cold as ice, and he said coldly: "Qiao Xiaoxi, look at you, you are such a greedy cat. You used to be a little pheasant that always wanted to run around, but now you have turned into a greedy little cat!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Wudi tore off a goose leg and handed it to Qiao Xiaoxi.

Qiao Xiaoxi happily took the goose leg, with a bright smile on her face, "Thank you for the reward, sir."

Seeing this, Liang Hongying couldn't help laughing and said, "Madam, why do you call Prince Jing brother and Duke Qin brother, but you call the young master Master? What's the point?"

Zhao Wudi remained stern, with a face as cold as ice, and said in a cold tone: "Of course I respect you, Master. Calling you brother is disrespectful!"

Hearing this, Liang Hongying became even more curious and continued to ask: "Doesn't Madam respect Prince Jing and Lord Qin?"

As Liang Hongying spoke, she looked at Qiao Xiaoxi, her face full of curiosity.

Qiao Xiaoxi was chewing goose leg meat with a bright smile on her face.

"My master once told me that if you meet someone you like, you should call him/her brother; if you meet someone you don't like, you should respectfully address him/her as master."

As Qiao Xiaoxi spoke, she looked through the firelight at Prince Jing's stern yet charming face, and Qin Ziming's peach blossom eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Turning around, she said to Liang Hongying with a smile on her face: "General Liang, look at the two brothers opposite, are they handsome?"

Contentedly, Qiao Xiaoxi put down the rabbit leg that she had already eaten clean, grabbed a wild goose leg and continued to feast on it.

While chewing meat and drinking wine, he pointed at Prince Jing and Qin Ziming with a smile.

She said with a smile: "These two handsome men are the real 'a man as beautiful as jade on the street, a pair of young masters in the world'!"

Liang Hongying secretly glanced at Zhao Wudi, seeing his expressionless face, and did not dare to answer.

Qiao Xiaoxi smiled and continued teasing.

"Brother Jing Wang doesn't like to laugh. This slightly depressed temperament is called coldness."

Qiao Xiaoxi drank a glass of wine: "Brother Ziming and Brother Xianwang like to laugh. This kind of temperament is called sunshine. Sunshine is a warm feeling."

"As for this... Master, Master..." Qiao Xiaoxi turned her head and stared at Zhao Wudi's icy face, "Oh my! Master, you are like an iceberg that has not melted for a thousand years. You are so cold, how can you dare to be happy!"

Prince Jing was looking at Zhao Wudi with interest, a faint smile on his face.

Zhao Wudi's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were cold, and his tone was even colder than ice: "Does Prince Jing know what the name of Qiao Xiaoxi's white horse is?"

Qiao Xiaoxi was puzzled when she heard this: "Xuanfeng! Is there anything wrong with this?"

Zhao Wudi's face was as cold as a piece of ice, expressionless. "There's nothing wrong with it. It's just that Qiao Xiaoxi named my mount 'Chasing the Wind'!"

Qin Ziming, who was standing by, laughed softly when he heard this: "Xixi's naming technique is really unique!"

Qiao Xiaoxi blinked her big watery eyes and looked at Qin Ziming with a blank face.

Qin Ziming chuckled and explained: "The brother of Jing Wang that Xixi likes is named Xuanfeng; and the brother of Xian Wang that you like is called Zhuifeng!"

At this point, Qiao Xiaoxi suddenly realized.

She smiled innocently and said clearly, "Oh, I'm so sorry. I was careless and didn't think it through. How about I change Xuanfeng's name?"

Prince Jing waved his hand, smiling, and stared at Qiao Xiaoxi: "It's okay, no need to change. I sincerely hope that I can turn into that white horse!"

Zhao Wudi still had a stern expression on his face, and said coldly: "My beloved horse will never be renamed. Qiao Xiaoxi named it 'Zhuifeng', so I will call it Zhuifeng."

Qiao Xiaoxi was already a little drunk!

Prince Jing, Qin Ziming, Liang Hongying and others were also a little drunk.

Qiao Xiaoxi waved her hand and said, "It's right for Brother Jingwang not to change!"

Prince Jing was puzzled: "Xixi, why is that? No matter how good the white horse is, it is just a mount after all."

Qiao Xiaoxi smiled brightly: "The white horse is not just a mount in the ordinary sense, it belongs to a real prince!"

Liang Hongying couldn't help but chuckle when she heard this: "Madam, you actually use the prince as a mount?"

Qiao Xiaoxi was filled with joy and said with a smile: "General, you don't know, I once heard from my master that in my master's place, a white horse is the prince that every girl dreams of, and is the most ideal partner!"

Hearing this, Liang Hongying and Qin Ziming urged Qiao Xiaoxi to tell the relevant story.

Qiao Xiaoxi began to tell them a story, first telling them a beautiful and moving fairy tale - the story of "Snow White".

Then, she shared a fantasy myth - the story of "White Dragon Horse".

Liang Hongying's originally heroic face suddenly became extremely gentle, like a blooming flower.

With eyes full of affection, he said: "The ideal prince charming in my heart should be a man as elegant and graceful as you, young master!"

Hearing this, Qiao Xiaoxi, who was standing by, waved her hand and pointed at Zhao Wudi. Her face, as cold as ice, smiled.

"General, please don't set your sights on me! I'm the prince charming. Hehe, forget it. Princess Chaoyang and I have loved each other since we were young. We are a perfect match made in heaven! The two of them will be together for the rest of their lives."

Liang Hongyu was very confused after hearing this and couldn't help asking, "Madam, if this is true, and the young master really marries the princess, where does that leave you?"

A brilliant smile bloomed on Qiao Xiaoxi's face, as beautiful and charming as a blooming flower.

He gently raised his right hand, slowly stretched it towards his neck, and made a decisive chopping motion.

"If you marry the princess, where will you put your wife? Of course she will die!" Qiao Xiaoxi said with a smile, "General, you may not know that your young master's love requires a hundred girls as sacrifices!"

Qiao Xiaoxi slowly leaned down, her eyes, which were originally as clear as water, now became blurred and dazed due to drunkenness.

He stared happily at Zhao Wudi's face, which was as cold as ice for thousands of years, as if he wanted to see through the icy face and see into Zhao Wudi's inner heart.

"Master! If it were me, facing the prediction of the Imperial Master, I would choose to become a monk without hesitation. Even if I deeply love someone, I would never sacrifice the lives of a hundred innocent girls. The love between Master and Princess Chaoyang is too sinister!"

There was a hint of grief and helplessness in Qiao Xiaoxi's voice. She really disliked the high-level officials in the ancient feudal system.
