The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy
Chapter 128 Leaving the Palace
Xie Xi was stunned when he heard this.
Xie Xi's eyes darkened slightly, and he glanced at the pavilion inconspicuously.
Huipin had already gone to another place to prepare for her performance, and at this time only his father and mother were in the pavilion. However, from the reactions of his father and mother, he should be able to hear Xiaoxiao's inner voice.
As for the fact that Concubine Hui is not a princess from a foreign country, I believe my father and mother must have known it.
Perhaps, my father will soon send someone out of the palace to investigate this matter.
This task is likely to fall into his hands.
Xie Xi did not answer for a moment. He pulled Lu Xiaoxiao to the other side to appreciate the flowers. Gradually moving away from the pavilion, the two stopped in a more remote corner, letting the lush branches block their figures.
The fragrance of flowers fills the air, and even the air has a hint of aroma.
Lu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, looked down at Xie Xi holding her hand, and waited patiently for his answer.
But I couldn't help but mutter in my heart: [If Your Highness doesn't know Huipin's true identity, should I remind Your Highness? ]
[After all, Huipin came here for His Majesty, who is the father that Your Highness respects the most. You must not let anything happen to His Majesty! ]
[If I remind His Highness directly, it would be a bit inappropriate. After all, she is now the emperor's concubine. Why not tell His Highness where Huipin is located in Shengjing first?
Let His Highness investigate? With His Highness's intelligence, he will surely be able to trace the source to Huipin! 】
Xie Xi didn't expect that when he hesitated for a while, Xiao Xiao had already assigned him a task.
He shook his head helplessly and glanced around. Seeing that no palace maids or eunuchs were coming this way, Xie Xi asked in a low voice: "Why do you ask this, Xiaoxiao?"
As he spoke, he reached out and rubbed her head, his dark eyes containing tenderness as he stared straight into her eyes.
Just looking at her softened his heart.
It was as if she only had eyes for him, and he only had eyes for her.
"Um……"
Lu Xiaoxiao thought for a moment, looking a little hesitant, and spoke in a low voice: "Your Highness, I actually seem to have seen Huipin go to a medicine shop called 'Ruyi' in Shengjing City, but that was before I entered the Prince's Mansion..."
Lu Xiaoxiao paused and coughed lightly. She blinked and said innocently, "Well, maybe I saw it wrong?"
Xie Xi pursed his lips and frowned slightly.
As far as he knew, there was indeed a Ruyi Pharmacy in Shengjing City. Although the pharmacy looked inconspicuous, it had a very good reputation. The medicinal materials sold there were extremely cheap, so only ordinary people would go there to buy medicine.
He passed by Ruyi Pharmacy but did not go in.
Unexpectedly, it turned out that it was the stronghold of the previous dynasty?
Today, under the governance of my father, the Kingdom of Li is peaceful and stable. The people have enough food and clothing and live a happy life. If there are people from the previous dynasty who really want to take advantage of the opportunity to start a rebellion, the people of the world will suffer in the end and will have nowhere to turn to.
As the crown prince of Li, he couldn't let this happen.
Fortunately, Xiaoxiao is by his side.
Xie Xi gently scratched her palm, changing his previous solemn expression to a softer one. "I know, I will investigate this matter thoroughly."
With His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's words, Lu Xiaoxiao felt relieved.
During the time she spent with His Highness, she came to know that there was nothing His Highness could not find out if he wanted to.
However, Lu Xiaoxiao still deliberately said: "Your Highness, do you believe what I said? After all, it has been a long time, maybe I remembered it wrongly?"
Hearing this, Xie Xi stared at her for a moment, tapped her forehead with his fingers, and suddenly chuckled: "Xiaoxiao, don't be naughty. I will believe whatever you say."
Lu Xiaoxiao, who was hit on the forehead for no apparent reason, said: "..."
I felt a little sweet in my heart: [Speaking of which, it feels really good to be completely trusted by His Highness~]
Xie Xi couldn't help but curl his lips, his soft eyes showing a faint smile.
He believed in her as much as she believed in him.
-
Lu Xiaoxiao did not stay in the imperial garden for long. Seeing that the concubines were about to perform in front of the emperor, Xie Xi sent someone to tell his father and mother, and then took Lu Xiaoxiao away.
No matter what, those concubines are the emperor's women. Even if they want to perform, only the emperor and the queen can watch.
Originally, Xie Xi planned to take Lu Xiaoxiao for a walk around the palace and let her get familiar with the roads.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he left the Imperial Garden, Xie Xi received a note secretly sent by a spy in the palace -
[Shu Fei wants to send someone to take Miss Lu away]
A long time ago, Xie Xi had placed spies in the palace. He also had people in the Luhe Palace where Concubine Shu lived, but the spy never moved and did not attract Concubine Shu's attention.
This was the first time Xie Xi received news from Lu He Palace’s spies.
News in the palace was passed on to each other. The news that His Highness brought Lu Xiaoxiao into the palace had already spread throughout the palace. If it had not involved His Highness, the spy would not have acted rashly.
Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was frowning and remained silent, Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel curious and quietly leaned over to take a look at the palm of his hand.
However, Xie Xi's movements were too fast. Before she could even see him, he had already clenched his fist and tapped her head lightly. He said nonchalantly, "Let's go back to the Prince's Mansion first."
Lu Xiaoxiao, who was hit again for no apparent reason, glared at Xie Xi in grievance: "..."
[If you want to go back home, then go back home. Why do you have to knock on me? ]
"Let's go."
Xie Xi didn't want Lu Xiaoxiao to face Concubine Shang so soon.
Xiaoxiao has always been simple-minded. If she were to meet Concubine Shu, she would probably fall into Concubine Shu's scheme easily.
What's more, Shufei was his father's concubine. As the crown prince, he couldn't quarrel with Shufei directly for the sake of his father's face.
For now, he had no choice but to let Xiaoxiao get away.
For fear of running into the people sent by Concubine Shu, Xie Xi deliberately took another route out of the palace. He grew up in the palace and was very familiar with the routes in the imperial palace. He quickly brought Lu Xiaoxiao out of the palace.
As for the people sent by Concubine Shu to look for Lu Xiaoxiao, they were still wandering around the palace.
A carriage had already been prepared outside the palace gate.
Xie Xi helped Lu Xiaoxiao onto the carriage. The driver waved the whip and urged the horse to drive towards the Prince's Mansion.
"Your Highness, I am afraid that I have completely offended General Weiwu by entering the palace this time."
[Although General Weiwu has already formed an alliance with the Fourth Prince, this matter has not yet been made public, and many people do not know about it. Now that General Weiwu has lost his military power, I am afraid he will hate me and Your Highness to death.]
[I don't know what the mighty general will do next. ]
Lu Xiaoxiao was a little worried.
No matter what, General Weiwu has a lot of connections in the court. What if he gets angry and joins forces with other generals to set a trap for Your Highness?
It's not impossible.
"It doesn't matter."
Without his military token, a general can do nothing.
Xie Xi didn't care what General Weiwu wanted to do next. He pondered for a moment, his gentle eyes fell on Lu Xiaoxiao's face. Facing her worried almond eyes, Xie Xi couldn't help but raise his hand and gently stroked her cheek. "Father has long intended to take back the military power. Even if it's not today, it will be tomorrow. This time we entered the palace just to let Father take back the military power as soon as possible."
"Similarly, Father also knows that General Weiwu has long had ulterior motives, so we must be on guard against him."
Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned, and her eyes lit up in an instant: "So, what we did today is to help His Majesty?"
Xie Xi hummed softly, with a smile in his eyes: "Father is very happy today."
"Xiaoxiao, father wants to give you some more rewards, but it will take a few days."
General Weiwu lost his military power and hated the Prince's Mansion very much. His father was reluctant to send rewards to the Prince's Mansion for fear that General Weiwu would cause trouble again.
"It doesn't matter if it's a few days later." She didn't care anyway.
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded and talked about another thing: "By the way, Your Highness, the Queen gave me something."
Lu Xiaoxiao took out the small sandalwood box from her sleeve and placed it in Xie Xi's palm.
This sandalwood box was stuffed into Lu Xiaoxiao's hands by the Empress when she helped her out of Feng'an Palace. As the saying goes, a gift from an elder cannot be refused, so Lu Xiaoxiao had no choice but to accept it.
A very light sandalwood scent was wafting in the air. The box hadn't been opened yet, so Xie Xi didn't know what was in it.
"Then I'll open it and take a look?"
"it is good."
In fact, Lu Xiaoxiao had never opened it to read.
Xie Xi opened the sandalwood box and saw a piece of warm jade inside.
"Xiaoxiao, it seems that the Queen Mother likes you very much."
"?"
Lu Xiaoxiao stared at the warm jade in confusion: "Could it be that there is some meaning in this?"
Xie Xi said with a smile, "This item is called Warm Jade. My mother has always loved it and always carries it with her. I never thought that my mother would give it to you."
As he spoke, Xie Xi gently took out the warm jade and placed it in Lu Xiaoxiao's hand. "If you are afraid of cold, it would be best to wear the warm jade all year round."
"But……"
Lu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, looking tangled: "The Queen gave me the warm jade, so does that mean the Queen will have nothing?"
Xie Xi: "Although the warm jade is hard to find, since my mother insists on giving it to you, then you should accept it."
He was also very happy that his mother liked Xiaoxiao so much.
"it is good."
She couldn't let down the Queen's kindness easily.
When she found something better, she begged His Highness to take her to the palace and give it to the Queen.
After figuring it out, Lu Xiaoxiao put the warm jade into her sachet and carried it with her.
"The Queen is so kind."
Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh.
Xie Xi suddenly chuckled, "Who is better, me or my mother?"
Lu Xiaoxiao: “……?”
Lu Xiaoxiao widened her eyes and stared at Xie Xi blankly, unable to react for a moment.
Xie Xi frowned slightly, and there was an inexplicable sourness in his tone: "Why? It's hard to answer?"
"Forehead……"
[It’s not that difficult to answer, but I didn’t expect His Highness to be jealous! ! Or jealous of the Queen! Hahahaha]
After coming back to her senses, Lu Xiaoxiao was almost laughing like crazy in her heart, but she still pretended to be calm on the surface. She turned her eyes and said seriously: "Of course, Your Highness is the best!"
Someone laughed so loudly that Xie Xi's mind was almost filled with "Hahahaha". He frowned, sighed barely audible, and said helplessly, "Really?"
Lu Xiaoxiao answered without hesitation: "Of course it's true!"
Answering too quickly makes you seem a little guilty.
Xie Xi sighed helplessly.
He never thought that there would be a day when he would become jealous.
Xie Xi tapped her forehead with his fingers and said, "Then I will trust you this time."
"Your Highness should have believed me!"
Lu Xiaoxiao immediately agreed, and said with a smile: "In my heart, Your Highness has always been the best!"
Xie Xi couldn't help laughing out loud because of her coaxing.
……
Shengjing City is prosperous and is located under the emperor's rule, so the public security has always been very good.
Listening to the hawking sounds on the street and the scents wafting over, Lu Xiaoxiao, who was sitting in the carriage, could no longer sit still.
She looked at Xie Xi eagerly and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, why don't we go downstairs for a walk?"
Xie Xi: "Not going back to the Prince's Mansion?"
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded quickly: "It's been so long since I came back from Shengjing. I can't catch up with any of the exciting things happening in the city. How about, Your Highness, let's play outside for a while before returning home?"
"it is good."
Xie Xi responded.
There were secret guards hiding around them, and it was broad daylight, so nothing would happen if they just walked on the street.
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up. She clutched Xie Xi's sleeve tightly and said anxiously, "Your Highness, shall we go down?"
"Let's go."
Xie Xi smiled and gently scratched her nose.
Lu Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes, lowered her head and held his hand.
Mu Qing drove the carriage and stopped in a remote alley.
Xie Xi and Lu Xiaoxiao got out of the carriage.
Xie Xi said, "Mu Qing, please find a place to park the carriage first, and then come to see me."
"Yes."
Mu Qing nodded and drove away in the carriage again.
Lu Xiaoxiao took a look and then looked away: "Your Highness, I wonder if Seventeen or Eighteen are nearby?"
"Have."
Whenever Xie Xi went out, he would always bring his secret guards with him.
What's more, Xiaoxiao is still by his side, and he can't tolerate any accidents happening.
There are not only seventeen or eighteen secret guards hiding in the dark, but also two secret guards with good lightness skills.
"That's good."
Lu Xiaoxiao was relieved: "Your Highness, where should we go first?"
Hearing this, Xie Xi looked at her hair, which was only tied up with a plain hairpin. Looking at her elegant appearance, he pursed his lips, took Lu Xiaoxiao's hand, and walked out of the alley together: "Xiaoxiao, come with me."
"it is good."
Lu Xiaoxiao was not very familiar with Shengjing, but she would not be afraid with His Highness accompanying her.
Anyway, His Highness would never sell her out.
Xie Xi brought Lu Xiaoxiao to a gold shop.
Everything inside the shop is glittering with gold, and it really deserves the name of "Gold Shop".
As soon as she came in, Lu Xiaoxiao was almost blinded by the golden light. "Your Highness brought me here to buy gold?"
Xie Xi: "The master jeweller here is very good. I want to order a new headpiece for you."
Lu Xiaoxiao choked: "..."
[But this shop sells gold. Your Highness, don’t you want my neck to bear a headpiece weighing more than ten kilograms? ]
Lu Xiaoxiao felt that she might lose her head.
