Chapter 25

"I want to eat candied haws, can you help me buy a bunch?"

Gou Xue casually made up a reason.

Although the background of "The Bingshan Prince's Absolutely Favorite Wife" is fictional, it still refers to several ancient dynasties of country Z, so candied haws is usually a kind of snack that will inevitably appear in such novels.

"Candied haws?"

The boy's expression changed slightly, as if he was a little surprised.

"Are there no candied haws for sale now?"

Gou Xue almost forgot to consider the season. It is probably the end of autumn, and it may not be time to eat candied haws.

"No, it's just that the candied haws are only sold at the market. There are no shops around, and the market is usually held in the early morning, so there should be no such meeting."

The servant answered in an orderly and unhurried manner.

"Oh."

Gou Xue gave a light sigh, expressing her understanding.

"Is there anything else you want to buy?" the boy asked respectfully.

"What are the nearby stores?"

Gou Xue actually didn't know what to buy, because she didn't plan to buy anything in the first place.

"Rouge gouache, silk and satin, pastries and the like."

The boy gave a few examples casually.

"Then buy me some pastries."

Gou Xue is only interested in food, after all, there is no shortage in other Murong Mansions.

"What kind of pastry should I buy?"

The boy asked kindly.

"Anything, as long as it's delicious."

How does Gou Xue know what kind of pastries are there? She can only buy them as he goes.

"Ok."

The servant lowered his eyebrows and nodded, but did not leave.

"Do I need to pay for it myself?"

Gou Xue guessed that it might be because she didn't give money, so she asked.

"No, the young one is just thinking about who is more appropriate to arrange for. After all, the young one is in charge of guarding the Wanyuan, so he can't leave casually."

The boy said with a smile on his face.

"What do you think of Xiao Cui?"

Gou Xue suddenly had an idea.

"Xiao Cui is your personal servant girl, it's not suitable." The little servant looked embarrassed.

"I think it's appropriate. I'll tell Xiaocui and ask her to buy it for me."

Gou Xue immediately walked away.

As long as Xiaocui is dismissed, she doesn't have to pretend to be a lady anymore, and she can still eat ancient delicious pastries later, which is perfect.

"Didn't the master say that she is actually 15 years old? Why is she still like a child?"

Watching Gou Xue skipping away, the secret guard Hei Yu, who was disguised as a servant, was very puzzled, and even a little doubted whether Murong Han heard it wrong.

Gou Xue looks to be eleven or twelve years old at most, far from a girl of Jiji's age.

"Although the master saved her life, it seems inhumane to use such a young girl as a chess piece?"

As one of Murong Han's most trusted secret guards, Hei Yu basically knew about Murong Han's plan.

He deliberately showed no interest in women, and even alienated his former childhood sweetheart Jiang Wanrou. He also cut ties with relatives and former friends of his mother's clan, pretending to be withdrawn and cold, and indifferent to anyone. The purpose of meeting the prince is to make others respect him and keep a distance, lest others make fuss about people who are close to him and threaten him to hand over military power.

Murong Han originally did not include "Gou Xue" in his calculations, but he had reached the age of establishing a family. If he did not start a family, the emperor would put pressure on him. He was unwilling to marry someone he did not like, but if he married someone he liked, Man, that would be harming her. In order to prevent the emperor from intervening in his marriage, he could only pretend that he already had the person he loved and protected her very well.

This "favorite person" can only be Gou Xue, because no one knows her details except him and his secret guards, so it will not be easy to make people suspicious.

 In order to listen to Xue Shuo Ling. Add more.
