Chapter 339 I will help you two
During these few days, the Crown Prince and Concubine Xiao were inseparable, day and night, leaving Concubine Zhao with no chance to interfere.
Concubine Zhao was unwilling to be ignored like this, so she wanted to take advantage of Concubine Xiao's absence to find a way to make something unexpected happen to her. That way, Concubine Xiao would not be able to pester the prince anymore.
And she also had the opportunity to get close to the prince.
Xiao Xixi said lazily: "After a whole day's journey, I just want to lie down in the house and don't want to go anywhere."
Lady Zhao: "I heard there is a specialty here called dog meat hotpot, it tastes delicious and everyone who eats it says it's good. Sister, would you like to try it?"
After observing for the past few days, she found that Concubine Xiao was very greedy. As long as there was something delicious, Concubine Xiao would definitely not be able to sit still.
As expected.
When Concubine Xiao heard the word "special dishes", she immediately sat up straighter.
But when she heard what Concubine Zhao said, her body leaned back again, with a look of disgust on her face.
"Why eat dog meat when there are so many other things to eat? Dogs are so cute, how can you eat them?"
Lady Zhao was stunned.
She didn't expect Concubine Xiao to have such a reaction.
Not only her, but even the prince who was sitting next to her and drinking tea silently was a little surprised. Based on his understanding of Concubine Xiao, as long as she knew there was something delicious, she would definitely find a way to get it to eat.
Unexpectedly, she was not only indifferent, but also showed disgust.
This is totally inconsistent with her previous painting style!
Concubine Zhao was very angry at Concubine Xiao's bitchy behavior.
She really wanted to grab Concubine Xiao and ask her, "You usually eat mutton, pork, chicken, rabbit, and fish with great relish, but why didn't you say that they were cute at that time? You were just pretending to be kind in front of the prince!"
Lady Zhao forced a smile and said, "People keep dogs just to cook for them, so why do you have to say such things, sister?"
Xiao Xixi: "So I didn't stop you from eating dog meat. If you want to eat it, just eat it. Just don't drag me into it."
Concubine Zhao was speechless.
She was unwilling to give up and continued to lobby: "Even if Sister doesn't like dog meat hotpot, she can eat something else. There should be other special delicacies here. We can go and look for them."
Xiao Xixi hesitated for a moment, but finally shook her head.
"You can go if you want. It's better for me to stay in the inn. There's a chef here anyway. I can just ask him to cook whatever I want."
Although the food is tempting, the prince’s safety is more important.
She had to stay by the prince's side to ensure his personal safety. As for the delicious food, she could enjoy it after the trip was over.
Seeing that she was determined not to go out, Lady Zhao was extremely upset, but she had to pretend to be very disappointed.
"I was originally thinking about getting closer to my sister, but since she doesn't want to, forget it. Let's make an appointment another day."
Xiao Xixi responded casually: "Well, let's talk about it later."
Just at this moment, the eldest prince Luo Yechen arrived.
He said to the prince.
"I want to go out for a walk."
Xiao Xixi immediately said, "It just so happens that Lady Zhao also wants to go out for a walk, why don't you two form a team?"
Concubine Zhao was shocked and quickly refused: "How dare I trouble the eldest prince?"
Luo Yechen also felt that it was too troublesome to bring a woman along. Seeing that she refused tactfully, he felt quite satisfied.
Unexpectedly, the prince spoke at this time.
"Since both of you want to go out for a walk, then go together. It would be best if you bring General Xiao with you. It will be easier to get things done with more people, so as to avoid any accidents on the way."
Luo Yechen was not happy: "I am a grown man, how can I take a young lady out with me?"
Concubine Zhao did not dare to refuse the prince and could only look at him with a look full of grievance, hoping that he would change his mind.
Luo Qinghan: "It is precisely because you are a grown man that I let you take Lady Zhao with you, and I want you to protect her a little. If you don't want to, then both of you should stay at home and stay in the post station."
Luo Yechen really wanted to curse, he felt that the prince was deliberately making things difficult for him.
But he just couldn't refute it.
Who can blame him for being the prince? His status is higher than his and his words are more effective than his.
In the end, he could only pinch his nose and reluctantly admit it: "Okay, I'll take her with me."
This time, Concubine Zhao really wanted to cry.
She wanted to go out with Concubine Xiao, not with the Crown Prince!
With the last glimmer of hope, she asked cautiously, "Your Highness, I am your concubine. It is not a good idea for me to go out with another man, right?"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "It's okay, he is my eldest brother. According to seniority, you are his younger sister. If he really has any thoughts about you, come back and tell me."
Hearing this, Lady Zhao couldn't help but feel moved and expectant.
"Your Highness, will you make the decision for me?"
Luo Qinghan: "If the eldest brother really likes you, it is your blessing. I will help you two to be together."
Lady Zhao: “…”
Concubine Zhao was in despair.
She never expected that the prince would say such a thing.
Does the prince really not care about her at all? !
Luo Yechen was originally a little disdainful. He didn't even like Concubine Zhao, let alone poaching her. But the prince's answer really surprised him and he couldn't help but be moved.
Unexpectedly, the prince was usually cold and indifferent, as if he didn't take his elder brother seriously, but he even gave him his beloved concubine.
This really proves the old saying that brothers are like limbs and women are like clothes.
No matter how favored a woman is, she is not as important as her own brothers.
Luo Yechen felt a lot more relaxed and a smile appeared on his face involuntarily.
"Don't worry, Prince. I definitely won't have any thoughts about your concubines!"
Luo Qinghan responded casually: "Yeah."
Even though Concubine Zhao was extremely reluctant, she had no choice but to go out with Luo Yechen in the end. Xiao Lingfeng and a team of Yulin Guards protected her on both sides.
Xiao Xixi turned her head to look at the prince with a strange look in her eyes.
She originally thought that the prince was a man with a strong possessiveness. Logically speaking, with his personality, he would not be willing to give his woman to others, even if he did not love this woman.
But just now the prince actually said that he could give Concubine Zhao away, which really went against his image as a domineering prince.
Luo Qinghan: "Just say whatever you want to say."
Xiao Xixi: "Your Highness, are you really willing to give Concubine Zhao to the eldest prince? Concubine Zhao is your beloved concubine, are you really willing to give her up?"
"She's just a concubine. It's common for the royal family and noble families to send concubines to each other. It's not a big deal."
Luo Qinghan said it calmly, and it was obvious that he really didn't take the matter to heart.
Xiao Xixi was increasingly confused. Why did the prince's possessiveness level fluctuate? This was too unstable!
