Chapter 160: Oh, how sad!
After Xiao Xixi finished eating all the noodles and soup in the bowl, she recounted the conversation with the prince last night.
Of course, she didn't mention that she secretly ate sour radish and steamed buns in the middle of the night.
Bao Qin was startled: "The Queen is going to hold a banquet, and she also wants to choose a princess for Her Royal Highness?"
Xiao Xixi said yes and reached out to pick up the last eight-treasure bun.
Bao Qin became even more anxious: "My lord, His Highness the Crown Prince is willing to tell you such an important matter in advance, which shows that he cares about your thoughts. You should seize the opportunity to prevent him from choosing the Crown Princess!"
Xiao Xixi ate the steamed buns and said puzzledly: "Why should I stop him? Sooner or later he will have a princess. Even if he doesn't choose this time, he will choose it next time."
"Then have you ever thought that if there is a princess in the East Palace, you will not be able to raise chickens, ducks, pigs and geese?"
Xiao Xixi ate the steamed buns.
She slowly opened her eyes wide with a look of shock.
Bao Qin continued: "Not only can we no longer raise chickens, ducks, pigs and geese, but we must also no longer be able to grow the vegetables in our backyard. The lotus roots, fish and shrimps in the pond will also be fished out and thrown away. This is the palace after all.
, Logically speaking, these things are not allowed in the palace. The reason why the vegetable garden and chickens, ducks, pigs and geese in the backyard of Qingge Palace can still be kept is because there is no princess to take care of it, and you have His Highness the Crown Prince to protect you.
Now, the hands of the two concubines cannot reach our Qingge Palace. But if there is a crown princess, the situation will be completely different. No matter how much His Highness the Crown Prince loves you, it is impossible for you to follow us just for a few vegetables and livestock.
If the Crown Princess falls out, I won’t just have to wrong you. Do you think that’s the right thing to do?”
Along with her description, Xiao Xixi seemed to see a cruel scene of chickens, ducks, goose and piglets being ruthlessly slaughtered, all the vegetables being ruthlessly pulled out, and even the small fish and shrimp in the pond being wiped out.
Without the vegetable garden, she would no longer be able to eat delicious food. She could only hold the steamed buns in her hands. There was not a drop of oil in the vegetables, and her tears could not stop flowing down~
Wow, so sad!
Xiao Xixi suddenly felt that the eight-treasure buns in her hand no longer smelled good.
She put down the steamed bun and said eagerly.
"I'll go find the prince right now!"
She had to find a way to prevent the crown prince from marrying the crown princess, at least until her task was completed, he couldn't marry the crown princess.
As for whether he would ascend the throne and become emperor and marry a queen in the future, that was his business and she couldn't control it. Anyway, by then she had completed her mission and returned to her master's office to deliver her duties.
Seeing that the young master finally had the fighting spirit, Bao Qin was so moved that he almost cried: "I will prepare some snacks now."
Xiao Xixi dressed up a little, got on the sedan chair, and urged the bearer to go faster.
Baoqin followed closely with a food box.
They went straight to Mingguang Palace.
When they arrived at Mingguang Palace, they found out that the Crown Prince had gone to the Meeting Hall and had not returned yet.
Xiao Xixi and Baoqin could only wait at the door.
If it were to be elsewhere, Xiao Xixi could still go in and sit and wait. Unfortunately, the Mingguang Palace was the prince's study, and there were many important things in it. No one dared to let her in without the prince's permission.
After a while, the eldest prince Luo Yechen also came.
He only wore a single shirt today.
It's already autumn now, and the weather is getting cooler. It's really strange that he still wears so little.
What is even more strange is that he is carrying a bundle of thorns behind him.
