Chapter 227 I was wrong
Xiao Xixi didn't think there was any danger at this height, but in order to calm Baoqin, she chose to follow Baoqin's words.
"Then I'll find someone else to pick osmanthus flowers."
Baoqin called her, "Please rest here. I will go and call someone."
Soon she called for two young eunuchs, who brought with them a ladder and a long bamboo pole with a hook made of wire at the end.
One person held the ladder, while the other climbed up and used a long bamboo pole to hook the cassia twigs. After hooking them down, he broke them and threw them into the basket.
Xiao Xixi and Baoqin stood guard beside the basket.
When the basket was almost full, Xiao Xixi finally asked them to stop.
They carried the basket to the small kitchen, picked the osmanthus flowers and washed them.
With so many osmanthus flowers, we can not only make osmanthus candy, osmanthus cake, and osmanthus dumplings, but also brew osmanthus wine.
Baoqin took out two eggs from the stove, blew them cool, carefully peeled off the eggshells, and handed them to Xiao Liangdi.
Eggs cooked over firewood are particularly fragrant.
Xiao Xixi ate with gusto.
Seeing that she was enjoying her meal, Baoqin sighed softly and did not mention the matter of the Crown Prince and Concubine Bai again.
Just now Baoqin was angry and shouted that she wanted to go find the prince with Xiao Liangdi. Now that she has calmed down, she knows that it will be useless even if they find the prince.
Not to mention that Xiao Liangdi was just a Liangdi. Even if she was the Crown Princess, there was no reason to stop the Crown Prince from meeting other concubines.
It's good like this now. At least Xiao Liangdi can enjoy her meal without having to worry about those messy things.
…
In the sleeping hall.
Concubine Bai spoke with tears in her eyes.
"This morning, when I heard the news that Your Highness had fainted, I immediately rushed to Linde Hall with Chen Liangyuan to visit you, but was blocked outside by Xiao Liangdi. After I went back, I became more and more worried, fearing that something bad might happen to you. Fortunately, my father came, otherwise I would not have been able to see you until now."
Luo Qinghan: "When you came this morning, I should have been sleeping."
Concubine Bai wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief: "It's my fault for coming at the wrong time. I also want to stay in Linde Palace to take care of His Highness like Xiao Liangdi did..."
Before she could finish her words, Mo Hua walked in holding a porcelain cup.
"Your Highness, this is the ginseng soup that Xiao Liangdi sent. Would you like to drink it now?"
Luo Qinghan responded calmly: "Yeah."
Concubine Bai stretched out her hand towards Mo Hua and said, "Give me the soup. I will serve the prince soup."
Mo Hua glanced at the prince.
Luo Qinghan: "I'll drink it by myself."
Mo Hua bypassed Concubine Bai's hand and put the porcelain cup into the prince's hand.
Concubine Bai had no choice but to let go of her hand. There was a hint of resentment and loss in her eyes as she looked towards the Crown Prince.
"I just want to do something for Your Highness, but Your Highness is unwilling to give me such an opportunity?"
Luo Qinghan drank a mouthful of ginseng soup and said calmly: "You haven't been in good health for a long time, have you? You don't need to do such a small thing. If you have nothing else to do, go back and have a good rest."
Seeing him driving her away, Concubine Bai could no longer hold back and tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
"Your Highness, do you dislike me so much?"
Luo Qinghan glanced at her and saw that she was crying like a pear blossom in the rain. He felt very annoyed: "I'm not dead yet, why are you crying?"
Concubine Bai choked and couldn't cry anymore.
"I was wrong."
These women in the harem admit their mistakes faster than anyone else, but they just won’t change.
Luo Qinghan said coldly: "If you are really bored, go copy the scriptures with Concubine Li. If copying once is not enough, copy ten times. If copying ten times is not enough, copy a hundred times. Don't come to me all day. I am recovering from illness and need some quiet time."
Whether or not the seal on the manuscript box can be lifted depends on whether you have enough votes, hehe~
