Chapter 247: Irony
Nie Changping: “…”
Is this so brutal?!
If the Yulin Guards knocked him out and carried him back, wouldn't his image as the little bully in the capital be shattered? How could he survive in Shengjing in the future? !
Nie Changping laughed dryly: "Hey, your highness is really good at joking. I have hands and feet, so I will definitely walk back by myself."
He stood up reluctantly.
Xiao Xixi reminded: "Remember the snacks from Su Xiang Tang!"
"Understood."
Not long after Nie Changping left, Concubine Bai came to Minguang Palace.
She was wearing a long-sleeved silk dress made of plain snow silk today. She only had her eyebrows drawn on her face, without any rouge or lip balm. Her face looked slightly pale, and coupled with her slender body, she looked frail and weak.
Compared with the gorgeously dressed Xiao Liangdi, Concubine Bai was like a delicate little white flower, kind and weak, making people feel pity for her.
Baoqin was very upset when she saw this. It was a wrong decision!
She actually forgot Concubine Bai's white lotus attribute.
If she had known that Concubine Bai would act weak, she should not have let Xiao Liangdi dress up so gorgeously!
The more beautiful and charming Xiao Liangdi was at this moment, the more domineering she appeared, and Concubine Bai was contrasted by being made to look like a poor little being bullied.
People are more likely to favor the weaker side, and the weak Concubine Bai perfectly meets this condition.
Concubine Bai pushed away Liu Xu's support and stepped forward to bow: "I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Luo Qinghan asked calmly: "Do you know why I asked you to come?"
"I don't know, please tell me, Your Highness."
Luo Qinghan looked at Xiao Liangdi, and Xiao Liangdi looked at Baoqin.
Baoqin recounted the whole process of how she went to Yulian Hall to receive the imperial edict today.
There were a lot of people present at the time, and it would be easy to be exposed if she lied, so she told the truth entirely without exaggeration.
After she finished speaking, Concubine Bai said softly.
"So it's just a small matter. Maybe my people were too busy and accidentally mixed in some defective items when they were sorting things out. I'll have someone replace them for you later."
Baoqin thought the other party would make excuses and shirk responsibility. She had already prepared a lot of words to retort, but she didn't expect the other party to admit his mistake so easily.
This made her feel like she was punching cotton, and she felt very uncomfortable.
Concubine Bai looked at Xiao Liangdi, frowned slightly, and blamed her helplessly.
"Sister Xiao, if you feel that what you got is not to your liking, you can just tell me and I will have someone change it for you. Why bother His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for such a small matter? His Royal Highness has just recovered from an illness and is still very weak. It is time for him to rest and recuperate. Sister Xiao's behavior is really inappropriate."
Her words seemed to be spoken generously and appropriately, but in fact she was implicitly criticizing Xiao Liangdi for being petty and fussy over trivial matters, even disturbing the Crown Prince's rest. This was really not decent.
Baoqin really wanted to refute.
But she was a palace maid, and it was not easy for her to talk back at this time, otherwise people would think that Xiao Liangdi did not teach her well.
She was so embarrassed that her face turned red.
Xiao Xixi didn't seem that angry. She said, "Since my sister agreed to change things, let's change them quickly."
After changing things, she can go back to eat barbecue.
Concubine Bai said helplessly, "Sister, you are really impatient. Don't you see what time it is now? The sun is about to set. The Shaofu should have locked up the warehouse. I will send someone to change it for you tomorrow."
