Killer Pretty Queen

Chapter 268

"Mother!" Xiao Li interrupted angrily, "Aren't you going to go home, let those two women make our Xiao family look bad and let them go?"

"The time hasn't come yet." Mrs. Xiao simply said, regardless of whether Xiao Li could listen to it or not, "In short, everything has its own destiny. You must listen to your father's words and the prince's words."

"I don't care, mother, you must go back with me!"

As Xiao Li said, she pulled Mrs. Xiao up and walked out without hesitation, but was stopped by Huangfu Haotian.

Xiao Li was stunned for a moment.

"You want to stop me too?"

"You are doing something stupid, of course I will stop it."

Xiao Li stomped her feet and looked angrily at Huangfu Haotian, while Mrs. Xiao looked at the carriage parked in the distance.

"A Li, His Royal Highness is doing it for your own good. When you are able to protect your mother, your family, and the people in this world, your mother will come back."

Mrs. Xiao's words were so majestic that even Xiao Li was stunned.

Why are these words so weird, with the ability to protect the family and the world...

Protect the world?

Xiao Li looked up at Huangfu Haotian, but saw his face was determined.

Huangfu Haotian is the crown prince, and he will overcome obstacles to the throne in the future. The hardships along the way are not as simple as he imagined.

And now the mother and daughter who suddenly appeared, everything is too weird.

Mother left, is there really something hidden?

That's right, I can't even deal with my little sister who came halfway, so what ability do I have to talk about protecting my mother.

If you can't keep your own home, how can you stand beside Huangfu Haotian and protect the world?

Xiao Li let go of her mother's hand in a daze, and Mrs. Xiao gently pressed Xiao Li's shoulder.

"A Li, it's up to you when mother comes back."

Xiao Li woke up from the shock, looked at her mother's trusting gaze and kind smile, and nodded firmly.

"I will, mother, I will definitely protect everything I have, and no one can hurt it."

Mrs. Xiao nodded in satisfaction, and took Huangfu Haotian's hand again, covering Xiao Lirou's boneless little hand.

"I know His Royal Highness is sincere to you, Ari, don't let mother down."

Xiao Li looked at those big palms that were gently covering her hands, and the delicate warmth came from there, as if flowing all over her body.

"En!" Xiao Li nodded heavily.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Xiao, I will treat Ah Li well."

Xiao Li raised her head and saw Huangfu Haotian's serious face, her heart warmed.

"In this way, I can rest assured that if my mother returns to Qingzhou, if there is nothing serious, she will ask the crown prince to deliver a letter. A Li must also let her mother rest assured and protect herself."

Xiao Li's eyes were slightly red, thinking about parting from her mother, she felt sad again.

"Mother, Ah Li will definitely pick you up."

"Okay, good boy, tell your father, you don't need to feel guilty, it's just that you have to wait for a chance to talk about this secret." Mrs. Xiao was reluctant to let go, but she still pulled out her hand and held the two of them tightly. hands.

"His Royal Highness, Ali, I will leave it to you."

Xiao Li and Huangfu Haotian watched Mrs. Xiao go away in the carriage, although their hearts were sad, their moods were peaceful.

"Thank you." After a long time, Xiao Li raised her head and said.

"Why be polite to me." Huangfu Haotian brought Xiao Li closer to the carriage, and couldn't stay here for long.

"My mother trusts you so much, do you have something to hide from me?" Xiao Li took the lead into the carriage, raised the curtain and faced Huangfu Haotian who was about to get into the carriage.

Huangfu Haotian squeezed her hand hard, got into the carriage, and after sitting down, he put down the curtain, seeing Xiao Li's bewildered look, he almost laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at..." Xiao Li was annoyed.

"I laughed at you for being so strong with your mother, but in fact you are still a little confused."

Xiao Li was angry and didn't speak, Huangfu Haotian came over.

"I suspect that all of this was arranged secretly by the empress. Don't you think it's strange that the mother and daughter came here, and everyone believes that the empress admitted it, so it's not wrong, but if you think about it, Li, there is nothing wrong with the mother and daughter. Strange place?"

Xiao Li thought about it carefully, although those two people appeared to be flawless on the surface, but when they thought about it carefully, they were completely out of place with the entire General's Mansion.

First, Aunt Liu took control of the inner house quickly, and then Xiao Lianhua began to try to occupy the shop and business.

It's only been less than a week. If you don't look carefully, you really don't know that almost all of the important lifelines of the Xiao family are in their hands.

Most of the general's mansion were rough people who were used to marching and fighting, but some of the servants who saw this clearly didn't dare to say much, plus Xiao Chaogui was old now, and his health was far from what it used to be.

Xiao Li felt more and more afraid. If it was said that this was a plot by the queen, it would be a bit vicious, and it would be a drudgery from the bottom of the pot.

Elevating the General's Mansion and losing the connections and relationships of the General's Mansion, this is tantamount to making Huangfu Haotian lose his right and left arm.

"Mrs. Xiao has realized this, but she dare not confront the queen face to face. The origin of those two people is unknown. If you rashly expose them and drive them away, Mrs. Xiao is afraid that the queen will attack you."

It turned out to be like this...

At this moment, Xiao Li understood her mother's painstaking efforts.

That's why I force myself to face it, force myself to grow up, and learn to protect the people around me, so that I can be qualified to reunite the family.

Only by himself, in the General's Mansion, he can be trusted and trusted without relying on his father's name, so that those two people of unknown origin can't destroy his family.

Only in this way can the empress blatantly convict her be blocked.

So the road ahead will be extremely difficult.

"Don't worry, Ali, I will be with you, just like you are with me."

Xiao Li looked at Huangfu Haotian stretching out his hand, with warm eyes.

Alone in modern times, she has always been helpless, living and fighting alone.

But now here, with parents who care about her, and a husband who gives her solid support, she will have her family and the world in the future...

"A Li..." Huangfu Haotian saw her in a daze, and said softly.

Xiao Li turned her head and smiled brightly, and put her hand in his palm...

Knowing about the old lady's birthday banquet in Shangshu Mansion, Aunt Liu immediately made preparations for the birthday gift the next day, and made peace in front of Xiao Chaogui in every possible way.

The purpose was just to let Xiao Lianhua bring a birthday gift to pay respects to his birthday. Xiao Chaogui only wanted to get the white hand, but he didn't have any idea about the twists and turns inside. He immediately found Xiao Li and asked the old lady about the birthday banquet in detail.

Xiao Li knew what Liu Shi was thinking, but she didn't plan not to take Xiao Lianhua with her. Now, she was really not afraid that she would have any bad ideas, but that she would not be able to catch her mistakes if she was honest.

"Father is so strange. The eldest sister in charge of the house is naturally responsible for preparing the birthday gift. The Shangshu Mansion did not send a post, so it must be because they did not plan to invite the female relatives. Besides, there is no wife in the main house in our Xiao family, and there is no reason for the aunt to go out to socialize. That's why the madam didn't want to embarrass her aunt, so she didn't post a post for the female relatives. In this case, A Li thought, it would be good for the father to bring the birthday gifts in the mansion. Mrs. Bi is also not picky."

Xiao Li was expressing his puzzlement as to why Xiao Chaogui would come to ask her in person, this old lady can be regarded as Xiao Chaogui's old acquaintance, birthday greetings are a must.
