Chapter 193 Winning People's Hearts
Xiao Liangdi took Baoqin back to her residence.
Baoqin fetched some hot water and helped Xiao Liangdi wash up while giving her earnest advice.
"Eat less in the future. What if you gain weight? You are the prince's concubine. If you gain too much weight, how can you win his favor?"
Xiao Xixi smiled proudly: "Don't worry, I have a physique that can't gain weight. No matter how much I eat, I won't gain weight."
Baoqin was half-believing and half-doubting: "Is it really so magical?"
"Look at how much I eat at each meal. After all this time, I haven't gained any weight at all."
Baoqin agreed when she thought about it. The young lady ate meat for every meal and had a big appetite, but she didn't get fat. At most, she still had some baby fat on her face, which made her look quite cute.
Baoqin continued, "Even if you won't gain weight, you should control your appetite a little, especially in front of the Crown Prince. If you eat so much, it will leave a bad impression on the Crown Prince. If you really want to eat, we can eat quietly in private without letting the Crown Prince see."
Xiao Xixi thought for a moment and said, "That's fine."
For her, as long as the food is delicious, it doesn’t matter where she eats it.
Baoqin helped her to spread her hair and said, "There is one more thing you need to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince tomorrow."
"What's up?"
"This place is too far from the prince's bedroom. If you want to come back for a nap at noon, you have to walk a long way. It's too inconvenient. Find a chance to talk to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about this and ask him to move you to a place closer to the bedroom."
Xiao Xixi didn't care much about these little things. Since Baoqin mentioned it, she agreed.
"Okay, I'll go talk to the prince about this tomorrow."
She paused and continued.
"By the way, make some food for Eunuch Chang tomorrow and send it to him. Please also say hello to him for me and ask him to have a good rest and try to recover as soon as possible."
Baoqin was very surprised. She didn't expect that the young lady would care about things other than eating, drinking and sleeping.
But on second thought, Baoqin felt that it was indeed necessary to go and see Eunuch Chang. On the one hand, it was because Eunuch Chang was a good person and treated his subordinates kindly. On the other hand, it was because Eunuch Chang was a trusted person around the prince, and there would be no harm in establishing a good relationship with him.
Baoqin responded seriously: "Don't worry, I will take care of this matter."
She was very pleased. The young lady had really grown up! She even knew how to win people's hearts.
Xiao Xixi took off her clothes and lay down on the bed.
She was covered with a soft blanket, praying silently in her heart -
Eunuch Chang, you must get well soon!
Once you recover, things like receiving guests and counting gift lists will all be left to you!
…
The next morning, Baoqin woke Xiao Liangdi up on time.
Xiao Liangdi kept her eyes half open the whole time, like an emotionless puppet, allowing Baoqin to manipulate her.
Baoqin helped her put on her clothes, comb her hair and put on makeup, and then helped her go out to find the prince.
I happened to meet Sizhu on the way.
As a senior palace maid, Sizhu was relatively relaxed in her dressing style and did not have to wear only the same style of skirt as the younger palace maids.
She is also very good at dressing up, and today she wore a plain white double-breasted skirt.
Even though the weather is getting cooler now, her collar is still slightly open, revealing a small piece of snow-white skin.
She wore a white orchid in her hair and had delicate light makeup on her face.
This plain outfit not only did not reduce her beauty, but made her look even more charming.
Sizhu held the jade bottle in her arms and knelt down to salute.
"This servant pays respect to Xiao Liang Di."
