Chapter 200: This woman must have done it on purpose

Liang Hengshao looked at Shi Qingluo, who was leaving without hesitation and had walked a few steps away from him.

He felt a headache coming.

He restrained his expression and said, “Miss, please wait a moment.”

When Shi Qingluo heard this, she was certain that he had most likely met her here on purpose.

She turned around and raised her eyebrows.

With a somewhat impatient tone, she asked, “What?”

Liang Hengshao was surprised again.

When women in the capital saw him, they would either blush or be reserved and polite.

This was the first time he had met such a cold and impatient woman.

Liang Hengshao could only take the initiative and say, “I’m injured. Can you help me bandage it?”

Shi Qingluo immediately shook her head. “No.”

...

Liang Hengshao was stunned.

This woman’s heart was made of stone, right?

He said, “I can repay you.”

Shi Qingluo shook her head again. “Men and women can’t be intimate with each other. I am a married woman. If I want to touch you just because I’m helping you bandage it, then I will lose my purity.”

Liang Hengshao remained silent.

Although this sounded reasonable, why did he feel that her words were very perfunctory.

Hadn’t she been hanging out with a group of profligates in the capital recently?

Why was it that she couldn’t be close with him?

Liang Hengshao could only settle for the second best. “Then can you help me call someone?”

This time, Shi Qingluo agreed readily. “No problem.”

Then, she picked up a whistle from her neck and blew it loudly.

This was to get Xi Rong.

The whistle sound immediately spread.

Liang Hengshao was speechless.

He really didn’t expect this woman to help him call others.

Shouldn’t she be helping him to find his people?

He could only put on a guarded expression. “What are you doing?”

Shi Qingluo shrugged. “Calling for help!”

She even added in a kind tone, “Don’t worry, they’ll be here soon.”

She wasn’t going to give him what he wanted by jumping into the trap he set.

She was thinking too much.

Liang Hengshao felt an indescribable sense of grievance. “I’m asking your help to find my people.”

Shi Qingluo pouted. “Whoever comes to render assistance is also saving you, doesn’t matter who that is.”

Liang Hengshao uttered under his breath, this woman must have done it on purpose.

Very soon, they heard the sound of horse hooves.

Xi Rong appeared here with a few of her personal attendants.

The first thing she did was look at Shi Qingluo and asked, “Luoluo, are you alright?”

Shi Qingluo smiled and replied, “I’m fine.”

She pointed at the man not far away. “This person is not fine.”

Xi Rong looked over and was stunned when she saw him. “My second eldest cousin, why are you here? You’re even injured.”

When Shi Qingluo heard Xi Rong’s response, she knew the man’s identity.

He was the second prince.

Then, his motive for appearing here was even more worth pondering.

Liang Hengshao was also surprised. “My cousin, why are you here too?”

He explained, “I came to hunt today, but I didn’t expect to meet a killer in the woods.

“After I was injured, my men stopped him while I ran and ended here.”

Xi Rong felt that something was not right, but she did not probe further. “I came to hunt with my friends.”

Then, she instructed the people behind her, “You guys go and help the second prince to treat his wounds.”

One of them dismounted. “Yes!”

Liang Hengshao had a very good ointment on him.

He took it out for these people to help him bandage his wounds.

Although the wound was not deep, it was still painful.

After treating his wounds, it wasn’t good for Xi Rong to leave him behind. “Second cousin, we’re going back to the city soon. Do you want to come with us?”

Liang Hengshao nodded. “I don’t know where my people are either. I’ll go with you.”

Then, he got up with the help of Xi Rong’s personal guard onto his horse.

It wasn’t good to continue hunting, so all of them went down the mountain first and returned to the royal farm.

As they descended, Shi Qingluo suddenly turned to look at Liang Hengshao and asked, “Do princes like you like to bring the imperial sore ointment with them whenever they go out?”

Liang Hengshao was stunned. “I don’t know about the others. I often bring it with me.”

“A situation like today has happened before,” he added.

Shi Qingluo looked very surprised. “Then you have too many enemies. They actually dared to assassinate you in the suburbs of the capital.”

Liang Hengshao asked himself, what did she mean by having a lot of enemies? Did this woman know how to speak?

And she actually didn’t have any respect for him at all. He was a prince!

Liang Hengshao did not know if Shi Qingluo had noticed something.

He forced a stiff smile. “The person who tried to assassinate me is indeed very daring. I will get someone to investigate.”

Shi Qingluo smiled and did not say anything.

When they arrived at the royal farm, the second prince saw the usually cold agriculture minister leading his men to surround Shi Qingluo.

He asked her all sorts of questions about planting.

Shi Qingluo’s confident and radiant answers surprised and excited the agriculture minister and the others.

She didn’t look like a village woman, and was also different from other women from aristocratic families.

Interesting.

Shi Qingluo told the agriculture minister and the others on how to make organic fertiliser themselves, and they were busy trying it out.

The agriculture minister even invited Shi Qingluo to work in the Ministry of Agriculture.

He could ask the emperor to make an exception and give her a position in the Ministry of Agriculture.

However, Shi Qingluo rejected him politely.

She still had a lot of things to do at home.

Moreover, she enjoyed spending time with her husband and her mother-in-law.

She did not want to come to the capital alone.

The minister could only express his regret.

If she wanted to, she could come to him anytime.

He even suggested that he could ask for advice whenever she was in the capital.

Shi Qingluo directly agreed.

The two of them did not keep their conversation a secret.

The second prince, Xi Rong, and the others all heard it.

Xi Rong acted as if it was a matter of course.

Her Luoluo was just that amazing.

The second prince was shocked once again.

This woman could actually let an old and stubborn person like the agriculture minister to make an exception.

It seemed that she was indeed quite capable.

The agriculture minister and the others were busy, so Shi Qingluo and the others also left the royal farm.

Who knew that it would suddenly rain heavily on the way back?

The road ahead was full of mud and it was not easy to walk.

Xi Rong’s people suggested that they first go to a dilapidated temple to seek shelter.

So they went to the dilapidated temple.

When they arrived, they found that there were actually people they knew.

Xi Rong looked at Liang Youxiao, Xi Rui, and the others, and asked inexplicably, “Why are you here?”

Xi Rui shook the rain that was on his body when he got off the carriage. “We were bored in the capital, so we thought of looking for you and going hunting together.

“Who knew that it would rain heavily?

“We had no choice but to come here to take shelter from the rain, and we even met you guys.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his head and saw the second prince who had followed him in.

He was stunned at first, then he casually saluted. “Greetings, second prince!”

Liang Youxiao and the others also came over and saluted. “Greetings, second prince!”

The second prince had a gentle and amiable look on his face. “There’s no need for formalities. You don’t have to do this outside.”

Very soon, the guards that came with them lit a fire.

Everyone gathered and sat down.

The weather had already turned cold, and it was getting even colder now, since it was still raining heavily outside.

There were also attendants boiling water and making brown sugar and ginger tea for their young masters to dispel the cold.

After Shi Qingluo sat down, she chatted and laughed with Xi Rong, Xi Rui, and the others.

She looked bright, cheerful, and lively.

The second prince held a cup of hot tea and looked at her, but thought of something in his heart.

Shi Qingluo also felt that someone was staring at her.

She turned to look at the second prince and raised her eyebrows. “Why are you looking at me like that? Haven’t you seen such a beautiful girl before?”

Hearing her words, Xi Rui and the others could not help but spit out the tea in their mouths. “Pfft!”

Shi Qingluo was really an amazing woman..
