Chapter 271

   Baoqin called Qingsong to ask him to find out where the prince is now?

   Then she went into the small kitchen and went to work.

   Soon Qing Song will come back.

   "Return to Niang Niang, His Royal Highness has just left the court, and he is in Mingguang Palace at this moment."

  Xiao Xixi said she knew.

  Baoqin made hibiscus cakes, eight-treasure lily and yam crisps today. She was afraid that the cakes would get tired after eating dry, so she specially served with a cup of white fungus and lotus seed soup.

  She put all these foods into the food box one by one and delivered them to Concubine Xiao.

"Niang, if your Royal Highness asks, you will say that these foods are made by yourself..." Baoqin paused when she said that, she remembered the performance of Concubine Xiao Fang last time when she delivered the soup, even if she sent the script to In the hands of Concubine Xiao, Concubine Xiao would not perform according to the script.

   So Baoqin changed her mouth: "You can say what you want, please feel free to play."

  Xiao Xixi smiled and said okay, she likes free play the most.

  She carried the food box into the sedan chair, Baoqin walked beside her.

  A group of people came to Mingguang Palace.

  Father-in-law Chang learned that Concubine Xiao was here, and came out to greet him in person.

  He smiled and said authentically: "Why the concubine side is free to come here today?"

  Xiao Xixi smiled and said: "I'm here to send some cakes to His Royal Highness. I wonder if it will be convenient for him to go in?"

   "His Royal Highness has just finished the discussion, please come with the servant."

  Xiao Xixi followed Chang Gonggong to Mingguang Palace.

  At this moment, Dong Mingchun, Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, walked out of it.

  The two sides met each other.

  Dong Mingchun stopped and bowed.

   "Weichen greets the empress."

  Xiao Xixi caught a glimpse of his face and paused in his footsteps.

  Dong Mingchun is more than 40 years old this year, with a blessed figure, but because he comes from a family and is wearing official uniforms, it looks quite magnanimous.

  In the eyes of outsiders, he is a middle-aged uncle with a little temperament.

  Only Xiao Xixi could clearly see that Dong Mingchun's Yintang was blackened, and there was still a bit of red suffocation between his eyebrows. It was obvious that he was about to face a disaster of blood and light.

  Finding that Concubine Xiao Fang is not moving anymore, Grandpa Chang is very puzzled: "Why didn't the empress leave?"

  Xiao Xixi retracted her gaze: "It's nothing, let's go."

  She walked past Dong Mingchun without squinting.

When he walked out of Mingguang Palace, Dong Mingchun sighed, showing sadness on his face.

  Xiao Xixi walked into the room and saw that the prince was reviewing the dossier.

  In order not to disturb their two-person world, Grandpa Chang and Baoqin retired wittily.

  The two stood chatting quietly under the corridor.

  Baoqin asked: "What did you think of the pastry that I gave you last time? Did it still suit your taste?"

   Father Chang smiled and said, "It's delicious."

   "I'll make some more for you later."

   "Then there will be Lao Baoqin girl."

  Inside the house.

  Luo Qinghan put down the file, looked at the woman sitting opposite, and asked calmly.

"How did you come?"

"I heard that you have been very busy recently. I am afraid that your concubine is too busy, so I specially sent you some cakes. You can try it." Xiao Xixi brought out the cakes and desserts from the food box and placed them in two places. Among the people.

Luo Qinghan didn't move, he still looked at Xiao Xixi and asked.

   "Nothing to show your courtesy, let's take it, what are your intentions?"

  Xiao Xixi blinked her eyes: "What can the concubine have in mind? Isn't the concubine just worried about you? I came here to see you. Why are you still suspicious of your concubine?"

  Luo Qinghan thought for a while: "Did Baoqin let you come? Did she use some food as a bait to attract you to come and behave in front of you?"

  Xiao Xixi was quite surprised, but he didn't expect the prince to know Baoqin's routine.

  She stood up, walked around the square table, and sat down next to the prince, smiling authentically.

   "His Royal Highness really thinks too much, my concubine is just coming to see you."

  Luo Qinghan is still dubious.

  Xiao Xixi picked up a piece of yam crisp with chopsticks and fed it to the Prince's mouth, and said softly.

  "Try it, it's delicious."

  Luo Qinghan couldn't stand her speaking in this tone, frowning slightly, seemingly displeased, but her thin lips opened uncontrollably, and gently bit a small piece of yam crisp.

  Xiao Xixi asked: "Is it delicious?"

"not bad."

   "Then you still want to eat?"

  Luo Qinghan said that he didn’t want it anymore.

  Xiao Xixi stuffed the remaining half of the yam crisp into her mouth, acting very skillfully and naturally.

  Luo Qinghan is already quite familiar with this, and has become accustomed to it.

  Xiao Xixi took out a cup of white fungus and lotus seed soup and placed it in front of the prince.

  Luo Qinghan took two sips.

  Bao Qin knew that the prince did not like food that was too sweet, so he deliberately reduced some sugar, so this white fungus and lotus seed soup tasted a little bland, but it fits the prince’s taste.

  Xiao Xixi put a piece of hibiscus cake into her mouth and asked unconsciously.

   "Who was the one who left here just now?"

  Luo Qinghan: "Are you talking about Dong Mingchun? He is Shangshu of the Criminal Ministry, what do you ask him to do?"

  Xiao Xixi answered truthfully: "Just now I happened to meet him and found that he is about to suffer a **** disaster. If he is still useful to you, you'd better send someone to follow him and don't let him be killed."

Luo Qinghan's expression changed slightly.

  He is now in charge of the Xing Department, and Dong Mingchun, as the Shang Shu of the Xing Department, naturally became a member of his faction.

  Although Dong Mingchun is sleek and sophisticated, he may not be very loyal to him, but his ability to do things is indeed very good. Over the years, he has accumulated a deep prestige in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. If he is allowed to be killed, the Ministry of Justice will surely lead to chaos, which is definitely not a good thing for the prince.

  He remembered that when he was discussing with Dong Mingchun just now, Dong Mingchun seemed to have something to say to him, but when he asked about it, Dong Mingchun said that he had nothing to say.

  At that time, Luo Qinghan felt that something was wrong with him, but Dong Mingchun refused to say clearly, and Luo Qinghan couldn’t force others to say it.

   Hearing Xiao Xixi's words right now, Luo Qinghan hardly hesitated, so he called Zhao Xian.

   "You choose a few capable Yu Linwei, quietly follow Dong Mingchun, secretly protect his safety."

  Zhao Xian didn't know why the prince made such an arrangement suddenly, but he did not ask much, and replied respectfully.

   "I will obey the order!"

   Luo Qinghan hesitated, still took out an amulet and handed it over.

   "You carry this next to your body, it may be useful."

  Zhao Xian took the amulet with both hands: "Thank you, Your Highness."

  He carefully put the amulet away, turned and left Mingguang Palace.

  Today, after Dong Mingchun left the palace, he went directly to the Criminal Ministry. He stayed there for most of the day. He didn't walk out of the Criminal Ministry until the sun went down.

  He rode back home in his carriage.

  But not long after, Dong Mingchun hurriedly left the house again and drove out of the city from Xuanwumen in a carriage.

  This trip is a dozen miles away.

  The sky dimmed quickly.

  Did Dong Mingchun look out of the car window? When he saw an octagonal pavilion on the side of the road, he hurriedly called to a stop.

  The carriage stopped immediately.

  Dong Mingchun got out of the car, he took the lantern from the driver, and said, "You wait here, and I will go back."
