"Is what the prince said true?"

"nature!"

Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu looked at each other and saw intention in each other's eyes.

Suddenly Li Xiuzhu remembered something and asked, "Who was the girl next to you just now?"

Hearing this, Xue Baochai covered her head with one hand and said a little embarrassedly: "Well, it was Xiangling, the maid my brother bought from the human traffickers."

"Do human traffickers need to force people to buy? Aren't they just trying to sell people?"

Xue Baochai sighed and explained, "At that time, there was another man who also liked Xiangling, and the two of them had an argument, and my brother accidentally beat the man to death."

"It cost us a lot of money to settle this matter. We didn't dare to stay in Jiangsu and Zhejiang anymore, so we came to Beijing to seek refuge with the Jia family."

Li Xiuzhu heard this and said, "In that case, Xiangling, come with you. Otherwise, if something happens, your Xue family won't be able to handle it, and something will definitely happen to your brother."

Hearing this, Xue Baochai nodded. When Li Xiuzhu opened his mouth, she vaguely guessed that Li Xiuzhu wanted Xiangling.

Xiangling is no less pretty than her, with a rouge mark on her forehead.

The rouge mark is a birthmark that is red like rouge, and is usually only found on Bodhisattvas, immortals and gods.

This makes the already beautiful Xiangling even more sacred.

Not to mention Li Xiuzhu, even she and her mother liked it very much.

But as Li Xiuzhu said, as long as someone investigates, the Xue family will definitely be in trouble.

This matter could be a big or small matter, so she didn't dare to gamble.

But if Xiangling was no longer in the Xue family, or even went to the prince's house, no one would be able to find out, and no one would even dare to find out in the end.

"Okay, Your Majesty, you don't have to go home. I'll talk to mother and Baochai will come to the mansion on her own tomorrow."

To be honest, Xue Baochai wanted Li Xiuzhu to go and ask for the person in person, but her silly brother also liked Xiangling very much. Xiangling would soon be of age and would be able to sleep with the emperor, and she was afraid that her silly brother would do something wrong with Li Xiuzhu.

This is the prince, who can take the lives of their entire family with just one word.

Li Xiuzhu seemed to understand what Xue Baochai was thinking, but did not object.

"Okay, then I will wait for you, Baochai, to marry me."

Li Xiuzhu seldom called himself "The King" in the academy, mostly as a joke. But this time his tone was much more serious, which the two sensitive people noticed immediately.

Lin Daiyu wanted to speak up for Baochai, but it seemed that she had nothing to say. What could she say? It was the same as saying nothing.

"Well, I will never keep the prince waiting for long."

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this and changed the subject.

"Let's go, the lunch that Yunshuang arranged has been delivered, let's go eat."

Li Xiuzhu looked at Lin Daiyu and asked, "Sister Daiyu, can you have your meal?"

Lin Daiyu said coquettishly: "Daiyu is not that fragile."

When the three of them arrived at the dining hall, the tables had already been set and the seats had even been assigned, and they were just waiting for them to take their seats.

However, Fu Yunshuang's seat was on the left side of the main seat, and three seats were left vacant to the right.

Li Xiuzhu didn't let his sister-in-law wait for long and sat next to Fu Yunshuang.

Xue Baochai and the other girl looked at each other, and Sister Lin was the first to speak humbly, "I am not feeling well today, and I am afraid I cannot take good care of the prince. Bao girl, you sit next to the prince."

Xue Baochai smiled when she heard this and said, "If you are not feeling well, you should sit beside the prince and feel his care and concern."

Lin Daiyu: Are you serious? How can the prince take care of people?

At this time Li Xiuzhu spoke.

"Daiyu, please sit next to me."

Lin Daiyu blushed slightly and sat down under Xue Baochai's teasing gaze.

Of course, the other chicken leg had already been given to Fu Yunshuang.

At this moment, Lin Daiyu was flattered and quickly said, "Your Majesty, I don't like chicken legs. You should eat it."

Li Xiuzhu frowned slightly.

"Just take it if you give it to me."

"If you don't eat any meat, you won't have a healthy body."

Li Xiuzhu looked at the others and continued, "You too, even if you don't like it, everyone has to eat some meat. If you like meat but not vegetables, you have to eat some vegetables."

“Only with balanced nutrition can you be healthy.”

After hearing Li Xiuzhu's words, everyone looked at each other. Is that true?

However, the etiquette they follow is to eat less, and even only three bites of the same dish at most.

In fact, several girls had long been dissatisfied with the rule that they could only eat three bites of delicious food in front of them, so they started to have fun after hearing this.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Since the prince has said so, we should abide by it, so I won't be polite."

"But I have to keep it a secret, sisters. I don't want to be unable to get married in the future."

Hearing this, the girl next to her joked, "This is what the prince said. If you can't get married, let the prince be responsible."

Li Xiuzhu smiled when he heard this and said, "Don't worry about eating. I'll take care of it."

The girls in the book club are all good-looking, so it wouldn't be a loss even if I took them all. As for getting fat? That's impossible. Just think about the girls at home. They exercise so much regularly, how could they get fat?

"Great! I've been wanting to have a big meal for a long time."

Li Xiuzhu hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't do that. Your stomachs are basically set now. You can't eat too much."

"You can stop eating when you feel full and a little bloated, otherwise you should see a doctor."

After Li Xiuzhu finished speaking, Chu Xiaoran chuckled and said, "The prince is really caring. Sisters, take it easy."

The meal was a joyful one. Everyone relaxed and ate their favorite dishes. However, there were a few dishes that were not very tasty, such as the sweet and sour spare ribs, the steamed fish with fermented black beans, etc.

Fu Yunshuang ate as she watched, silently memorizing the details in her heart.

You can prepare extra portions of these dishes for your next party.

After more than half an hour, everyone collapsed at the table.

The maids beside them were all shocked. Was this still the well-educated and well-mannered young lady in their house? "Bring some tea to clean up the table and you can have your meal."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Li Xiuzhu and the others did not disturb them at the table, but sat on chairs nearby, and cups of chrysanthemum tea were brought over.

After Li Xiuzhu finished telling the story of the Precious Lotus Lantern in the afternoon, the regrets from the last story of Yao Ji were finally resolved.

That's right, a happy ending is the most satisfying.

Li Xiuzhu just smiled and explained that because the ending was happy, it would be forgotten soon.

Maybe this is the beauty of imperfection, Zhu Xian Bi Yao, the pain in everyone's heart.

Fairy Sword Zhao Linger, the pain in everyone’s heart.

Li Xiuzhu took Fu Yunshuang onto the carriage, while Lin Daiyu followed in the carriage behind.

Li Xiuzhu was a little confused as to why Lin Daiyu didn't follow him, but it didn't affect his mood.

"Is Yunshuang still happy today?"

"Of course I'm happy. It would be nice if my brother-in-law didn't have so many women around him so he could spend more time with Yunshuang."
