Chapter 432 Is this woman a devil? !
Chen Liangyuan hurriedly shook her head: "No, I don't dare!"
Luo Qinghan: "I don't think you have the courage."
Chen Liangyuan choked.
Luo Qinghan: "If you go out dressed like this in such a cold weather, people who don't know would think that the East Palace is so poor that it can't even afford a thick piece of clothing."
Chen Liangyuan's little face turned from pale to red.
Luo Qinghan no longer looked at her and just rode away in the carriage.
Chen Liangyuan was left standing there, furious.
Another gust of cold wind blew, making her head dizzy and she sneezed several times in succession.
Rouju advised, "My lady, let's go back quickly. It's too cold outside."
Even though she was unwilling, Chen Liangyuan had to give up for the time being. If she stayed here any longer, she would surely freeze to death!
Luo Qinghan came to Qingge Palace in a carriage.
As soon as Xiao Xixi saw him coming, she immediately rushed over excitedly and pulled him to the backyard.
"Come on, come on, I'll take you to see Big Fatty and Second Fatty!"
Luo Qinghan: "Who are Big Fatty and Second Fatty?"
Xiao Xixi: "They are the two pigs I raised!"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
Luo Qinghan couldn't believe it: "You actually gave the pig a name. Will you be able to kill the pig in the future?"
Xiao Xixi: "I definitely can't do it, so I want you to help..."
Luo Qinghan's eyes turned dangerous, and he asked slowly, "You want me to help you kill the pig?"
"No, no, no! How dare I trouble you to kill the pig yourself? I want you to help me find someone who can kill the pig."
Luo Qinghan's gaze finally relaxed.
Xiao Xixi pulled him to the backyard, where he saw the two pigs. They looked fatter than before.
Most importantly, they gave birth to eight piglets.
Xiao Xixi was like a local tycoon showing off his wealth, and said proudly: "Your Highness, look at how cute these little pigs are, white and plump, and they look delicious at first glance!"
Luo Qinghan was speechless.
On one hand, she praises someone for being cute, but on the other hand, she wants to eat him. Is this woman a devil? !
Xiao Xixi said expectantly, "I plan to make a roast suckling pig tomorrow. Your Highness, can you help me choose the best piglet?"
Luo Qinghan thought all pigs looked the same, so he said calmly, "Any one will do."
Xiao Xixi said seriously: "Tasting delicious food is a very solemn thing, how can we be so casual?"
Her eyes roamed over the little piglets.
"That's the one! It runs the fastest and will definitely taste better!"
Xing Er followed her request, marked the "fastest" piglet, and specially prepared a special meal for it, a portion of hot and fragrant pig food.
"Good boy, eat more. Only when you are full can you start your journey."
The little pig didn't know that tomorrow would be the end of its life. At this moment, he was concentrating on eating, completely immersed in the pleasure brought by the food.
After dinner, Xiao Xixi and Luo Qinghan took a shower and went to bed.
Before going to bed, Luo Qinghan talked about King Xiling.
"Prince Xiling entered the palace today. Father and grandmother received him successively. The palace should hold a simple welcoming banquet for him tomorrow. Do you want to accompany me to attend?"
Xiao Xixi hesitated and said, "But I want to eat roast suckling pig tomorrow."
Luo Qinghan: "We can save the roast suckling pig for the day after tomorrow. The pig can't run away anyway."
Xiao Xixi thought so too, and responded readily: "Then I will accompany you to the welcoming banquet tomorrow, and then we can eat roast suckling pig the day after tomorrow!"
You can enjoy the delicious food at the welcoming banquet and not miss the roast suckling pig. It’s the best of both worlds and it’s simply wonderful!
Looking at her with curved eyebrows and eyes, Luo Qinghan couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her on the face.
"Go to sleep."
Xiao Xixi closed her eyes obediently.
After a while, she opened her eyes again and saw that the prince's eyes were closed.
She quietly leaned over and kissed him gently on the lips.
"Good night, my prince."
Luo Qinghan did not open his eyes, but just hugged her tighter.
Xiao Xixi fell asleep quickly.
The next day, Luo Qinghan got up as soon as it was light.
He had a simple breakfast and then took a carriage to the council hall.
When Xiao Xixi got up, the sun was already high in the sky.
She sat up and yawned.
Baoqin said as she helped her dress.
"Just now, Concubine Li, Concubine Bai, and Concubine Jing sent people over to ask if you are free these two days. They want to invite you to drink tea and appreciate the flowers."
Xiao Xixi was puzzled: "I don't know them well, why did they suddenly come to invite me for tea?"
Baoqin: "Maybe they want to ask you about the prince. You and the prince are going to Chenliu County this time, and you will be gone for half a year. The concubines must miss the prince very much because they haven't seen him for such a long time."
Xiao Xixi was puzzled: "Since they miss the prince, why don't they go find him directly? Why are they looking for me?"
"It is precisely because they cannot see the prince that they have no choice but to come to you as a second choice."
Baoqin helped Concubine Xiao manage the internal affairs of the Eastern Palace. She took the opportunity to cultivate some spies and naturally knew a lot about what happened in the Eastern Palace.
She told him everything about how all the concubines went to Minguang Palace to ask for an audience with the prince yesterday but returned empty-handed, and how Chen Liangyuan tried to intercept the prince's carriage on the road last night.
Finally, she said, "Those concubines have hit a wall in front of the prince, and they have no choice but to come to you to seek a way out. Will you meet him or not?"
Xiao Xixi said lazily: "No."
Baoqin reminded: "If you don't meet all of them, I'm afraid they will gang up on you and say bad things about you behind your back. I suggest you choose to meet one or two of them, which will have a certain divisive effect."
Xiao Xixi still shook her head: "Every time I see them, I have to listen to them say some inexplicable things, which is quite annoying. I am too lazy to deal with them."
Baoqin said helplessly: "You have gained so much experience by accompanying the prince outside, why are you still so lazy?"
Xiao Xixi sincerely sighed: "It is because I have seen the outside world that I realized that I am a frog in a well."
Baoqin seemed to understand something: "Do you feel that you are too insignificant?"
Xiao Xixi: "No, after seeing the world, I found that the bottom of the well is my destiny."
Baoqin: “…”
Xiao Xixi: "Qingge Palace is my well. I am willing to lie here until the end of time!"
Baoqin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Inside the Jade Lotus Hall.
Concubine Bai was reading the scriptures page by page.
There were three hundred volumes of scriptures piled up in front of her. These were all copied by Concubine Li, and Concubine Bai was responsible for checking whether her copying was qualified.
This task is not difficult, but it is time-consuming.
Concubine Bai had just finished reading a scroll of scriptures and was about to take a break when she saw the head palace maid Liu Xu walking in quickly.
Liu Xu whispered, "The invitation you sent to Qingge Palace was returned. They said that Concubine Xiao had just returned to the palace and was tired. She needed to recuperate for a while and would not see guests for the time being."
