"My lord, I love my side concubine very much."

Getting up in the morning to make up, the maid who combed her hair teasingly looked at the bright red marks on Li Qing's neck and boldly laughed.

As soon as the words came out, all the maids in the room covered their mouths and laughed.

Li Qing tugged at the collar of his shirt in embarrassment, resisted the urge to run away, pretended to be calm and twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "You are the only one who talks too much."

Seeing her uncomfortable appearance, the maid hurriedly changed the subject.

"All the stewards in the mansion have sent the ledger to the front hall, does the side concubine want to read it?"

Li Qing said: "Leave it alone, I'll read it when I have time."

In response, the maid took out a pink gemstone Diancuibu from the dressing room, swayed it into her hair, and said: "Before the side concubine didn't get up, the steward Zhou had something to report."

"what's up?"

Li Qing asked smoothly.

"It's not an important matter," said the maid. "Earlier this morning, the maid in the Huichun Court said that the princess's appetite has been good recently, and the meals are not enough, and she wants to buy more. This matter should have been reported to Housekeeper Zhou. It’s just that now, concubine, you’re the housekeeper, so housekeeper Zhou came to ask you for an idea.”

Li Qing was stunned.

According to the regulations, the princess's diet should be three meat and four vegetables and one soup. This amount is enough for an ordinary woman, even a man can eat enough. Bao Xiruo's kitten's appetite is not enough. ?Have you never heard that Bao Xiruo described by the old man is a big eater?

Something is clearly wrong.

"Concubine, do you see?"

Li Qing brain made up for the slender beauty who was crying in the wind, mouthfuls of dry rice, and suddenly felt chills.The picture was so beautiful that she dared not look at it.

The maid carefully looked at her face and asked again.

"Add three more layers according to the example."

Li Qing thought about it, but she became suspicious in her heart.

How could she ignore the abnormality that even the maid could detect?Could it be that something happened to Bao Xiruo?

After receiving the order, the maid went out to order the little girl to go to the front yard to answer.

After dressing up, Li Qing dressed herself up and wore jingle bells. Her body was full of jewels, and there was a whole moving jewelry shelf.She touched the heavy weight on her head, a little worried that these luxurious hairpin rings would crush her fragile neck.

"Side concubine, you are so beautiful. This dress is like a concubine from the palace coming to the world. No wonder the prince loves it so much."

It's good to have heard this kind of flattery, Li Qing twitched the corner of her mouth and smiled.

The maid said again: "Concubine side, do you want to have breakfast?" She added, "When the prince is about to leave the house, he ordered the servant girl to tell the concubine that breakfast is for the concubine to use for herself, and there is no need to wait for the prince. Wait for the prince to come down." Then I will go back to the mansion to pick up my side concubine and enter the palace together to thank you."

Thinking of the concubine Yuan possessed by the fire-breathing dragon, Li Qing trembled suddenly.I don't know what's going on with entering the palace this time, Li Qing really feels panicked for Concubine Yuan, it's really hard for her to remember herself...

"Let's eat first."

Li Qing stood up from the dressing table.

The maid should have walked out the door, and soon the maids carrying cups, dishes, dishes and chopsticks poured into the hall like flowing water.

Just as Li Qing was having breakfast, Wanyan Honglie finished his morning and walked out of the palace gate quickly.

The chief envoy standing by the carriage's eyes lit up, and he leaned forward and whispered some private words into his ear.

Speaking of the matter of the princess's new meal plan, Bao Xiruo's appetite is no more clear than that of the servants around her, the sudden change naturally attracted the attention of those who care.

With Concubine Li Jinfeng moved into the main courtyard of the Qingzheng Hall, the prince handed over the internal affairs of the mansion to Concubine Li, and the concubine who was once held in the palm of the prince guarded the Huichun Courtyard alone to raise the young son, as if silent. As if out of favor.

It is said that the open and secret struggle between the masters in the backyard is either the west wind overpowers the east wind, or the east wind overwhelms the west wind, and there is no end to it.Now that side concubine Li is in charge, the power of the butler has fallen to the side, but the decent mistress of the mansion didn't even fart. Not only did she not raise any objections to the seizure of power, but she turned a blind eye to it.

But the skinny camel is bigger than the horse, no one knows how the prince treated the princess before, so soon someone reported the princess to the steward Zhou.

Steward Zhou was very thoughtful, after hearing the news and pondering for a long time, he whispered to the chief envoy in private, the chief envoy guessed Wanyan Honglie's thoughts, and finally decided to report the matter truthfully.

"It seems that our princess is indeed a kind-hearted person."

When Wanyan Honglie heard this, his eyes narrowed in amusement.

This familiar scene reminded him of the time when he was hiding in the cowshed in Niujia Village, and he felt ironic.

The envoy heard the danger from it, and hurriedly shrank his neck.

"Yes, Bao Xiruo has always been so kind and weak."

Wanyan Honglie said to himself, but there was a clear coldness in his eyes.

Bao Xiruo's personality is weak and kind. To say he is kind, it would be better to say that he is soft-hearted without distinction of right and wrong and has no principles, let alone blood.

Take Wanyan Honglie himself as an example, even knowing that he is an enemy, Bao Xiruo secretly rescued him who was seriously injured and dying without telling Yang Tiexin.After Yan Honglie accepted this kindness, even though his mood changed and his affection faded away, he still thought that Bao Xiwei was kind to him and never broke the contract, so he was willing to support their mother and child.Anyway, the palace can't afford to have two mouths.

But it doesn't mean that he will let Bao Xiruo hide the thief and hinder him.

But right now he has something to do, so there is no need to rush to catch the thief.

"How does the side concubine handle this matter?"

Wanyan Honglie changed the subject and asked again.

The envoy answered truthfully, and Wanyan Honglie gave a hum, his expression was neither happy nor angry, but there was a bit of helplessness in his tone.

"It seems that our side concubine is also kind-hearted..."

The chief twitched his face, but said nothing.

The kindness in the prince's mouth is placed on different people, why does it sound so wrong to him.

Fortunately, Wanyan Honglie just sighed, "Just listen to the side concubine's affairs." After a pause, he said with a sneer, "Send guards to keep a close eye on the princess's yard, and everything is as usual. We must scare the snake away."

There was a man hiding in Bao Xiruo's yard. Her portion was not enough to eat, but she yelled carelessly, which aroused suspicion. If she didn't succeed, it didn't mean that the thief was unsuspecting. He might be extremely vigilant right now. If there is any disturbance, they will flee around, so it is not a good time to send troops to catch them.

Let him be free for a while, wait for him to relax his vigilance, and then catch a turtle in the urn, and keep him so that he can't fly!

"Yes." The commander obeyed.

"Go home first." Wanyan Honglie jumped into the carriage.

The coachman pulled the reins, and the fierce horse galloped towards Zhao Wang's mansion with a neigh and hooves.

**

At the same moment, the servant girl carrying the food box lightly stepped into the Huichun Courtyard with lotus steps.

"Princess, the meal is here."

Passing through the magnificent main courtyard, the servant girl stopped in front of the thatched cottage and stepped forward to lightly knock on the wooden door.

"give it to me."

Bao Xiruo opened the door, stepped over the threshold and took the food box from the maid.

The dishes in the food box had increased, Bao Xiruo was unsteady under the weight of the weight, staggered and almost fell.

"Princess be careful."

The maid hurriedly stepped forward to help carry the food box, but Bao Xiruo avoided it sideways, retreated into the thatched cottage, turned around and slammed the door shut.

The movement was so fast that the servant girl almost didn't realize it, and slammed her forehead against the door.

The servant girl was bored, touched her face and walked out, but said in her heart: "The princess is getting weirder and weirder."

Well, I can’t live in the main courtyard, but I like to live in a simple thatched hut. I used to have a poor appetite, and I was full after a few mouthfuls of meals, but now I have to eat seven or two meters every meal for several days. It's ridiculously big.

Moreover, since the concubine gave birth to his son, the prince has never set foot in the Huichun Courtyard, and even the Zhongkui in the mansion has been handed over to Concubine Li.

If it is said that the princess has fallen out of favor, it is not like it.The side concubine took over the butler affairs of the mansion, not only did the concubine's food and clothing expenses not be deducted at all, on the contrary, it was several layers richer than before.

The main concubine and the side concubine in the palace did not fight each other like needles, but maintained a strange harmony like strangers who did not interact with each other.

The maid was a little confused.

Bao Xiruo took the lunch box and stepped into the hall, put the lunch box on the wooden table, opened the lid, brought out the steaming food inside and put it on the table, and at the same time shouted in a low voice: "Daozhang, it's time to eat .”

Called three times in a row but no one answered.

Bao Xiruo looked suspicious, and entered the inner room of the thatched cottage, only to see that the quilts on the bed in the inner room were scattered and there was no one there.

She couldn't help being startled.

"Daoist?"

The priest is gone?

Bao Xiruo rummaged through the thatched cottage several times but found no one, so she returned to the hall somewhat disappointed.

As soon as he stepped in, he saw a black shadow flash by like the wind. He sat down at the table in a blink of an eye, and took out a silver needle to point at the food on the table.

"Master, what is this?"

Bao Xiruo asked hesitantly.

"Pindao is afraid that the golden dog will poison the food." Qiu Chuji's face was pale, and the internal force was mobilized before the injury healed, which to him was nothing more than adding injury to the injury.

But this is something that can’t be helped. It’s better to be cautious than to be taken over by others.

As soon as Qiu Chuji said that, he tested all the food with silver needles, and he was relieved when he saw the needle tip was as white as snow.

"Since the food is non-toxic, the Taoist chief should come and eat." Bao Xiruo watched him perform a series of operations.

Qiu Chuji picked up the bowl and put it down again, said in a deep voice: "The food is not highly poisonous, but it may not be mixed with other things." There are many ways to prevent it. In addition to poison, there are also medicines such as Mongolian perspiration medicine and Ruanjin powder. It cannot be detected with a silver needle.

Bao Xiruo felt that there was no need for him to be so worried: "No one knows that the Taoist priest is hiding here, how could the food be poisonous?"

As she said that, she picked up the rice bowl and took a bite into her mouth to pick up the vegetables, "If the Taoist priest is worried, I will try these dishes first."

"Wait." Qiu Chuji frowned and couldn't stop him, watching Bao Xiruo eat all the dishes, there was no difference after a long while.

Could it be that he is really suspicious?

Qiu Chuji thought, the uneasiness in his heart was like a huge boulder weighing heavily on his heart.Although there is no abnormality at the moment, the palace may not be able to stay.

"Daoist, eat something to fill your stomach first." Bao Xiruo greeted again.

This time Qiu Chuji picked up the rice bowl without any hesitation, while pouring rice grains into his mouth with big gulps, he was thinking that it was time to bid farewell to Bao Xiruo.

The palace is not a place to stay for a long time, although the injury has not completely healed, it may not be a good thing for Qiu Chuji to hide, it is better to go back to the Quanzhen Sect to cultivate, and when Yang Kang is older, he will come to the palace to teach martial arts. Wouldn't it be wonderful to take the life of the golden dog prince?
