Chapter 112: Blasting Someone’s Innocence
Luo Qinghan asked Nie Changping to find a way to investigate the matter of County Magistrate Yang.
Nie Changping was a person who was always looking for trouble in the world. He knew that County Magistrate Yang had offended the prince, so he immediately agreed with a smile.
Luo Qinghan took Xiao Xixi back to the inn.
Xiao Xixi felt a little hungry and looked for something to eat everywhere. She finally found a box of snacks from her luggage.
She bought this on the way here.
Xiao Xixi asked the waiter to make a pot of tea.
The waiter said awkwardly, "Ordinarily we must have tea and water, but we have been suffering from a drought recently and there is very little water, so..."
Xiao Xixi: "How much?"
"One penny for a pot of tea."
"Can."
The waiter immediately ran to the kitchen and brought out a pot of tea for her.
Xiao Xixi asked him to put it in the account and pay together when they checked out later.
The guy happily said yes.
Xiao Xixi entered the room carrying a teapot and saw the Crown Prince sitting by the window, his eyes looking out, motionless. The afterglow of the setting sun fell on him, giving him a layer of warm glow.
This picture is quite pleasing to the eye.
Xiao Xixi walked over, sat down opposite him, and poured him a cup of tea. The tea was a little cloudy, and the tea leaves were the cheapest large-leaf tea, which was very poor in both taste and color.
Luo Qinghan just glanced at it and didn't touch the teacup.
Xiao Xixi ate two pieces of cake, and seeing that he still didn't move, she asked tentatively, "Is your highness unhappy?"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "I really can't be happy."
"How about I sing a song for you to cheer you up?"
Luo Qinghan decisively refused: "No need."
Xiao Xixi continued: "What about telling jokes?"
"I don't want to hear your jokes."
Xiao Xixi sighed: "You are so hard to please."
Luo Qinghan looked at her with a cold and deep gaze: "Tell me, did those people trick me into thinking I was a fool?"
"But you are not a fool. You are the wise prince. They can't fool you."
"If I hadn't come here quietly in advance, they might have fooled me. They used my name to amass wealth and forcibly conscripted men, causing resentment among the people. All this resentment would eventually be directed at me. The people would think that I was a fool who didn't know the suffering of the people and only knew how to eat, drink and enjoy myself. My reputation would be ruined bit by bit without me even knowing it."
Xiao Xixi comforted him, "Don't worry, Your Highness. You should think positively about everything. Maybe your reputation has already been ruined by someone else?"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
He looked at her expressionlessly, his eyes cold.
Xiao Xixi chuckled: "It's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
Luo Qinghan didn't want to pay attention to her anymore.
Xiao Xixi ate a piece of cake and drank a sip of tea, and soon she was full.
She lay down on the bed and prepared to take a nap. Just as she closed her eyes, she heard a knock on the door.
Nie Changping is back.
He also brought back a little girl of about twelve or thirteen years old.
The little girl's hair was disheveled, there was a bright red slap mark on the left side of her cheek, her collar was torn open, her eyes were red, and she looked very pitiful.
Xiao Xixi looked at the little girl, then at Nie Changping, and her expression became extremely complicated.
"Little Prince, no matter how horny you are, you can't force yourself on such a young girl. How old is she?"
She looked as if she was looking at a beast.
Nie Changping's face flushed red: "How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air?!"
