Chapter 334 She Was Reluctant to Leave!
After eating and drinking, the team set off again.
This time, the prince didn't need to speak, Xiao Xixi got into the prince's carriage on her own initiative.
Lady Zhao mustered up her courage, walked to the side of the car, and called out softly.
"Sister Xiao."
Xiao Xixi lifted the bamboo curtain, poked her head out, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
Concubine Zhao was standing on the side of the road, her embroidered shoes and skirt were covered with dirt and grass, and she looked somewhat embarrassed and pitiful.
She asked cautiously, "Sister, have you forgotten our previous agreement?"
Xiao Xixi blinked: "What agreement?"
"You promised to let me ride in your car this morning."
Xiao Xixi suddenly realized: "That's it. If you want to ride in my carriage, you can do so anytime. The prince and I can ride in the same carriage."
Lady Zhao said anxiously, "That's not what I meant. I just want to stay with my sister so that we can talk on the way and kill some time."
Xiao Xixi said, "But I usually don't talk much in the car."
She slept most of the time in the car.
Concubine Zhao felt that she was deliberately perfunctory to her. She just wanted to monopolize the prince and didn't want other women to get close to him.
Lady Zhao pursed her lips and said in a very depressed tone: "Sister, do you really not like being with me?"
Xiao Xixi: "No."
"If you don't have any, why don't you want to ride in the same car with me?"
Xiao Xixi said as a matter of course: "Because I want to ride in the same car with the prince. The prince's car is more spacious and more comfortable than mine. I prefer staying here."
The prince's carriage was covered with thick carpets, on which one could roll around. Even if one did not sleep, just lying down would make one feel extremely comfortable.
Not to mention that there are many secret compartments in the car, each of which contains a lot of snacks.
This place is like heaven to her!
She is reluctant to leave!
Concubine Zhao was very angry.
This woman must have done it on purpose!
She's just showing off!
Lady Zhao took great pains to suppress the jealousy in her heart and managed to force a smile: "I have never been in the prince's carriage. After hearing what you said, I am quite curious."
Xiao Xixi asked: "Do you want to get in the car and play?"
Concubine Zhao was delighted. She didn't expect the opportunity to come so suddenly.
She pretended to be reserved and said shyly, "Can I really get in the car?"
Xiao Xixi: "Wait a moment, I'll go ask the prince."
She turned away, but before she could ask, the prince gave her answer.
"No, she's too dirty."
When Lady Zhao, who was standing outside, heard this, her heart instantly shattered into pieces.
But Xiao Xixi thought that she didn't hear it, so she leaned her head out again and repeated the prince's words word for word in a loud voice.
"The prince said no, you're too dirty."
When the Yulin Guards around heard this, they all secretly glanced at Concubine Zhao.
They originally thought that the prince would bring Concubine Zhao with him because he doted on her, but they didn't expect that the prince would dislike Concubine Zhao so much.
Concubine Zhao suddenly felt ashamed as if she was being publicly executed.
Isn't it just that there is a little dirt on her skirt and shoes? She can go change into clean clothes, is there any need to despise her like that? !
Besides, Concubine Xiao's shoes were also stained with mud, so why didn't the Crown Prince think she was dirty? !
The prince is so partial!
Concubine Zhao glared at Concubine Xiao fiercely, then ran away angrily.
Xiao Xixi retracted her head and let go of the bamboo curtain.
She looked at the prince who was pretending to sleep with his eyes closed and reported truthfully: "Lady Zhao seems to be angry."
Luo Qinghan responded calmly: "Yeah."
Seeing that he didn't take it seriously, Xiao Xixi also put the matter behind her.
The convoy set off again.
Xiao Xixi lay on the thick carpet in a lazy posture, holding a storybook in her hand and reading slowly.
As she watched, she began to doze off.
Then I fell asleep unknowingly.
Luo Qinghan took the script from her hand and helped her lift up the blanket.
He picked up the storybook that Xiao Xixi had just read and opened it to read.
This was the storybook he had asked someone to go out of the palace to buy, and it talked about some everyday life.
Luo Qinghan was reading a book when he suddenly felt an arm around his waist.
He looked down and saw that Xiao Xixi had rolled to his side at some point. Her arms were wrapped around his waist and her cheek was pressed against his.
She slept soundly, and occasionally smacked her lips, as if she was dreaming about something delicious.
Luo Qinghan slightly adjusted his sitting position to make her hug more comfortable.
He continued to read the storybook.
When the sun set, the team stopped at the door of an inn.
The postmaster and the clerks knelt on the ground to welcome the prince.
Luo Qinghan woke Xiao Xixi up, and the two got off the carriage and entered the post station surrounded by the crowd.
The rooms in the inn had already been cleaned thoroughly.
Eunuch Chang ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to move boxes of commonly used items into the post station.
Zhao Xian and Xiao Lingfeng began to check the post station to make sure no suspicious people were entering or leaving.
With the experience of going south to pray for rain last time, the prince was mentally prepared this time and did not express any thoughts about the simple conditions of the post station.
But the eldest prince Luo Yechen was very dissatisfied with this place.
He frowned and said, "This shabby place has nothing in it. Do we really want to stay here tonight? Can't we move to a better place?"
Luo Qinghan sat down on the cushion gracefully. Facing the eldest prince's complaints, he didn't even give him a glance.
"If you don't like this place, then don't live here."
Luo Yechen said angrily: "Is that how you talk to your big brother?!"
Luo Qinghan retorted without any hesitation: "When you asked someone to assassinate me, did you ever think that I was your biological brother?"
When talking about this matter, Luo Yechen thought of the four assassins who were held in the hands of the prince.
Luo Yechen felt uneasy, and his arrogance weakened.
He muttered quietly, "That matter is already in the past, why are you still digging up the past?"
Luo Qinghan sneered: "It was you who insisted on using my status as the eldest brother to make a fuss."
Luo Yechen knew that he couldn't win the argument, so he could only leave in disappointment.
Then Zhao Xian and Xiao Lingfeng walked in.
"Your Highness, we have inspected this post station and found no suspicious persons. We have also arranged for the Jade Lin Guards to be on duty and patrol."
Luo Qinghan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
The inn had arranged a separate guest room for Xiao Xixi, but she ran to the prince and said that she wanted to sleep with him that night.
She didn't know when danger would come, so she had to stay by his side at all times.
Luo Qinghan looked at her with an ambiguous expression: "Do you really want to sleep with me?"
Xiao Xixi nodded: "Yes, yes! I really want to sleep with you!"
Looking at her bright and warm eyes, Luo Qinghan uttered a word with a wooden face.
"Shameless."
Ah, my beloved monthly ticket, where are you? Come out and meet me soon~
