Chapter 367 The Second Prince is a Little Weird



After Xia Miaoyuan finished speaking, he skipped and ran to the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, and the Third Prince.

"You came to the guesthouse to play and didn't even invite me!"

The prince explained, "Miao'er, don't act silly. My brothers are here to do their job, not to play."

Xia Miaoyuan acted unreasonable and said, "I don't care. Since you guys are coming to the guesthouse, I want to come here and play too."

[Really? I'm here to do serious business, but you have to act like a little scoundrel. Where can I go to seek justice?]

[This time, Dai Viet has come with ill intentions, so we absolutely must not allow anything to go wrong at the guesthouse.]

Xia Miaoyuan acted like a spoiled brat on the surface, but she was actually complaining in her heart.

After hearing their sister's words, the three brothers felt a warm feeling in their hearts.

The prince's eyes moved, and he said to Lord Yan in a gentle voice: "Let the three of them stay for a while. They are just little kids after all. After we finish discussing this, we can send them back."

In fact, when Lord Yan saw his granddaughter coming, he had the same idea in his mind. However, due to his usual strict style, he was embarrassed to say it out loud.

This time the prince has spoken, and I am happy to do him a favor so that I can also benefit from it.

So, Lord Yan responded readily: "Well, let the three of them stay."

After saying that, Master Yan looked at Yan Ruoxi again and instructed: "You are the oldest of the three girls, and you are also the princess's study companion. You must take good care of Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Xiao family girl, and make sure nothing goes wrong."

Yan Ruoxi responded sensibly.

So, the manager of the guesthouse tactfully brought some snacks and fruit tea that the children liked.

The three little girls sat on the soft couch by the window, eating snacks and drinking fruit tea obediently without making any noise.

Lord Yan and his group continued to discuss business.

"Where were we talking about just now?" Lord Yan was a bit old, and when he was suddenly interrupted, he couldn't remember the topic for a moment.

The Third Prince picked up the notebook in his hand and said, "Just now, I said that we need to screen the personnel of the guesthouse and also said that we need to check all the doors and windows."

The third prince was afraid that he would forget, so after entering the guesthouse, he wrote down all the important information.

Lord Yan nodded and said, "Yes, that's all. Please continue to speak freely and share what you think."

Xia Miaoyuan held the cup with his chubby little hands and drank tea, but his thoughts never stopped for a moment.

[Oh, so we're here to discuss the precautions for the guesthouse.]

[This princess arrived at the perfect time. Fortunately, she is not too late.]

Those two are not bad, but they are not enough.

[The kitchen staff must be extremely cautious. If there is even the slightest problem, it could lead to a major issue in the diplomatic relations between the two countries.]

[The kitchen must have a dedicated poison tester, and every dish served must be tested for poison.]

[It is best if the person who tests the poison understands both medical principles and food incompatibility.]

[Oh, but Lord Yan and Wang Siqing are here. There are too many people. How should I remind them?]

Xia Miaoyuan's eyes fell on the peach blossom pastry in front of him, and he lit up. Then he said in a childish voice, "The kitchen staff at the Guest House are amazing. The peach blossom pastry they make is so delicious, it's not inferior to the chefs in the palace."

Yan Ruoxi couldn't hear Xia Miaoyuan's inner thoughts, so she naturally didn't know the intention of her words. She immediately thought that Xia Miaoyuan was young and naughty and was talking nonsense.

So, Yan Ruoxi frowned and looked at her, and whispered: "Your Highness, please be quiet. They are still discussing matters."

"If you want to laugh, we can go out for a while with some snacks."

Xia Miaoyuan quickly waved his hands and replied in a low voice: "I won't say it."

At this time, the Third Prince said, "The kitchen is the most important place. It is the place most likely to be tampered with."

Lord Yan and Wang Siqing nodded approvingly, encouraging him to continue.

"Xiao Wang thinks that in addition to adding more staff to the kitchen, they should also have a dedicated poison tester. It would be best if he has medical skills, can identify poisons, and understands food incompatibility."

As soon as the Third Prince finished speaking, the Crown Prince immediately said, "Third brother, what you said is very reasonable."

[Wow, third brother is so smart!] Xia Miaoyuan felt excited.

Wang Siqing stroked his beard thoughtfully, "It's true that we can prepare a person specifically responsible for poison testing, but where can we find such a person?"

"You have to understand medical principles and the incompatibility of foods. Which imperial physician can do this?"

The Second Prince immediately said, "Doctor Yin can do it!"

Now the whole capital, and even the whole of Daxia, knows Yin Xizi's name.

After hearing this, Lord Yan curled his lips slightly and said, "Asking a peerless genius doctor to guard the kitchen of the guesthouse? This is too..."

The Second Prince patted his head and said, "Yin Xizi's apprentice is also fine."

Master Yan's brows immediately relaxed: "Well, okay, then please ask Doctor Yin's apprentice to come over."

Upon hearing this, Xia Miaoyuan felt his nervousness relax. "Not bad, not bad. The discussion results are quite reliable. With Yin Xizi's apprentice here, nothing will go wrong in the kitchen."

[Also, regarding the guards at the guesthouse, have you told me that the guards need to be strengthened? Furthermore, a certain number of secret guards should be deployed.]

When the Second Prince heard about the secret guards, his heart tightened. He had just thought about strengthening the guards, but he had not thought about the secret guards.

Secret guards are indeed necessary.

Thinking of this, the Second Prince said directly: "Master Yan, Wang Siqing, I thought of the guards at the guesthouse."

"I just observed that the guards arranged at the guesthouse are not enough. Since a foreign delegation is coming, the guards must be adequate."
