Chapter 251 Despicable
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "I have my own thoughts on this matter, you don't need to worry about it, go back to your Yulian Palace, and don't hang out for no reason in the future, lest you get sick again if you catch a cold."
Seeing that the prince had made up his mind, Concubine Bai knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion. Even though she was extremely reluctant, she could only retreat in tears.
As soon as they left, Xiao Xixi couldn't wait to speak.
"Your Highness, I can't do this!"
Luo Qinghan asked back: "What's wrong with that?"
"I cannot manage the internal affairs of the East Palace. You should let someone else take care of these matters."
She just wants to live a quiet life as a salted fish and doesn't want to be a housekeeper.
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "Don't you still have Baoqin? You can ask her to help manage the housework."
Xiao Xixi shook her head: "Baoqin has to take care of me every day and is busy with other things. It's already very hard, and she has no time to take care of other things."
"Why don't you ask Baoqin before making a decision?"
Xiao Xixi turned her head to look at Baoqin standing behind her and asked, "You definitely don't want to do such a hard job that requires both hard work and no pay, right?"
Unexpectedly, Baoqin nodded vigorously with shining eyes: "I am willing!"
Xiao Xixi: “…”
The slap in the face came so fast like a tornado.
She was speechless.
Luo Qinghan had obviously anticipated this result.
Power is the most tempting thing in the world, and no one does not want it.
The only exception is Xiao Xixi.
Since Baoqin herself agreed, what else could Xiao Xixi say? She could only accept the result helplessly.
Luo Qinghan: "If you encounter any problems while managing the internal affairs of the Eastern Palace, you can come to me and I will help you solve them."
Xiao Xixi still didn't quite understand: "Why did His Highness suddenly promote me to a concubine? And also gave me the power to manage the internal affairs of the East Palace?"
Just now the prince said that these were rewards for her, but she and the prince knew very well that the prince's illness was a scam from beginning to end, and she was just cooperating with him in a play. There was no question of her taking care of him at all.
So she was very curious, why did the prince suddenly let her, a nobody, become a concubine?
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "In the future, there may be new people coming into the East Palace. Rather than letting those people with ill intentions occupy the position of concubine, it is better for you to be the concubine. Compared with them, I trust you more."
After hearing this, Xiao Xixi burst into laughter.
Her efforts to please the prince for so long were not in vain, as the prince finally treated her as his own.
Xiao Xixi puffed out her chest and promised solemnly.
"Your Highness, please rest assured. I will definitely help you take this position as your concubine. I won't give it to anyone else!"
Luo Qinghan looked into her bright eyes and asked with mixed feelings: "Aren't you angry at all?"
Xiao Xixi was puzzled: "Why are you angry?"
"I used you to balance the power of the East Palace's backyard. I treated you as a chess piece in my hand. Aren't you angry?"
Xiao Xixi held his hand and said seriously, "I have never been afraid of being used by Your Highness. What I am afraid of is that I am not even worthy of being used by you."
Luo Qinghan's heart moved slightly.
In this palace full of calculations, everyone tried every means to seek benefits for themselves, except for the woman in front of him. She laid everything about herself clearly in front of him and was willing to be used by him.
The more honest she was, the meaner he seemed.
