Chapter 307 Nowhere to Start
As the sun sets, the shadows of the two people are stretched out very long.
Bamboo leaves fall in the wind.
One of the bamboo leaves happened to fall on the prince's head.
Xiao Xixi reached out to help him remove the bamboo leaves.
She turned the yellowed bamboo leaf in her hand and looked at the bamboo forest next to her.
The bamboo forest in autumn is a bit bleak and looks far less lush than in summer.
Luo Qinghan carried her on his back through the bamboo forest and walked along the corridor, meeting many servants and guards on the way.
When they saw the prince, they all knelt down and saluted with an extremely respectful attitude.
Luo Qinghan put Xiao Xixi on the cushion, then walked to the door and whispered a few words to the steward who was waiting outside.
Xiao Xixi was lying on the table resting when she suddenly heard the bleating of a sheep coming from outside the window.
She supported herself on the ground with her hands and feet, and moved to the window using her hands and feet. She looked out and found that there was a field outside the window.
Not far away, there were a dozen goats grazing with their heads down. They were obviously eating very happily and made a few noises from time to time.
Xiao Xixi was extremely surprised and turned to look at the prince.
"Why are there sheep here?"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "There are not only sheep here, but also cows and horses."
Xiao Xixi's eyes lit up immediately: "Can you give me a few?"
Facing her eager eyes, Luo Qinghan said seriously, "These things cannot be kept in the palace."
Before Xiao Xixi could be disappointed for too long, he continued.
"It would be better to raise these cows and sheep in the farm. There are people here who are responsible for taking care of them, and the water and grass here are more suitable for their survival. If you want to eat mutton in the future, just say so and someone will deliver it to you. In addition, someone will deliver milk from here to the palace every day. You just need to wait in Qingge Palace and you will have milk to drink."
Xiao Xixi's eyes lit up again, and her little face was full of excitement.
She rushed over, hugged the prince and cheered.
"Your Highness is so kind!"
Luo Qinghan took the opportunity to put his arm around her waist and said calmly, "As long as you behave yourself, I will find a way to get you what you want."
Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Yes! I'm very good!"
At this time, the maids came in with delicious food.
They put the dishes on the table and then quietly left, leaving the room for the two of them to be alone.
The main course tonight is fish.
In the middle is a steamed fish.
It looks bland, but tastes surprisingly delicious.
Next to it are her favorite boiled fish and spicy and sour sliced fish.
Both dishes have strong flavors and are super delicious!
Xiao Xixi couldn't stop eating and kept praising: "It's delicious!"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "If you like to eat it, you can come here often in the future, and I will catch more for you."
Xiao Xixi then realized that the fish on the table were all caught by the prince after he spent the whole day fishing.
The fish was already delicious, and with the prince's thoughtfulness, the meal immediately became even more delicious!
Xiao Xixi ate all three fish dishes on the table. She even used the soup base to mix with the noodles, leaving no residue.
She ate with great satisfaction and sighed as she touched her round belly.
"If I could eat such delicious fish every day, I would think it would be worth it even if I had to sit by the lake all day."
Luo Qinghan washed his hands and began to drink tea leisurely.
He asked with an open mind, "Do you hate fishing so much?"
"It's mainly because fishing is too boring, and you don't want to talk while fishing, which makes it even more boring."
Luo Qinghan said seriously: "Talking will disturb the fish, making it difficult for the fish to take the bait, so you can't talk when fishing, you must remain quiet."
Xiao Xixi said aggrievedly: "I understand the truth, but I can't do it."
Luo Qinghan: "So what do you like to do in your daily life? Besides eating and sleeping."
Xiao Xixi: "I like reading storybooks."
"Apart from this?"
Xiao Xixi held up her chin and thought for a long time before saying, "No more."
Luo Qinghan: "Do you like listening to opera?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head: "I don't like it."
She couldn't understand the singing at all, it was simply hypnotic.
Luo Qinghan: "How about riding a horse and shooting arrows?"
Xiao Xixi: "I prefer watching others ride horses and shoot arrows."
Luo Qinghan couldn't understand: "Don't you like riding horses and shooting arrows?"
Xiao Xixi shook her head again: "I don't like it. I'm too tired and too lazy to move."
Luo Qinghan: “…”
He originally wanted to find a project that they both liked and take her to play together, so that they could enhance their relationship and prevent her from always thinking about returning to Xuanmen in the future.
I didn't expect that this woman was like a wild boar with thick skin and flesh, completely invulnerable to swords and guns, and immune to water and fire.
Luo Qinghan was not good at pleasing others, and now he felt he had no idea where to start.
Xiao Xixi: "Actually, Your Highness, you don't have to think so much. I think the way things are now is good enough. You can do your own thing, and when you are free, come and have dinner and chat with me. This kind of life is very comfortable."
Luo Qinghan really wanted to ask her, since she felt comfortable living like this, why didn’t she want to stay with him?
But he was afraid that the answer he got would disappoint him.
In the end, he said nothing.
At this time, the steward came in holding an exquisite porcelain jar.
"Your Highness, this is the crab you requested."
The so-called crab-like dish is a dish made with fish and shrimp meat. It tastes very similar to crab, so it is called crab-like dish.
Luo Qinghan asked him to put the porcelain jar on the table.
Xiao Xixi curiously leaned over, opened the porcelain jar, and immediately smelled a fresh aroma similar to that of crab.
She couldn't help but pick up a little with her chopsticks and taste it.
Some chopped scallops are added to the crab, which adds a bit of freshness.
This would be delicious if eaten with rice or noodles!
Luo Qinghan: "You can take these back and eat them slowly."
Xiao Xixi didn't expect that she could pack it up and take it away, and she became even happier.
She held the porcelain jar in her arms, like a little squirrel holding a pine cone, and smiled contentedly: "If Your Highness wants to go out and play again in the future, remember to bring me along."
Luo Qinghan: "Do you like it here?"
Xiao Xixi nodded vigorously: "Yeah!"
There are not only delicious fish here, but also mutton and milk. She loves it here!
Seeing this, Luo Qinghan's mood also improved.
It seems that this trip was not in vain, at least he made her happy.
As the night was getting darker, Luo Qinghan had to go to court the next morning and could not spend the night outside, so he took Xiao Xixi back to the palace.
Early the next morning, someone delivered a bucket of fresh milk to Qingge Palace.
Xiao Xixi drank the fresh milk as she wished.
She couldn't help but sigh: "His Highness is such a good man. He is so good to me. I can't bear to leave him."
