Chapter one hundred and seventy third ulterior motives(1/2)
He turned around and walked neatly, but Mingxiu felt a little lost. She didn't know what she was thinking. Isn't the current situation what she has always thought?
"Princess, where are you putting these?" Sanniang moved the account book, but didn't notice Mingxiu's strangeness.
After coming back to his senses, Mingxiu laughed at herself, "Let it be behind the counter." It's really pretentious.
...
Three days later, the Mingji Restaurant opened, and Nan Lingfeng returned to the Southern Dynasty.
During this period, Mingxiu and Xie Zhan never met, but there was nothing special about it. Not to mention the unmarried couple for three or five days, even if they didn’t meet for three or five months, it would be normal.
But Nan Lingfeng seemed to have noticed something.
"If I had known this, I would have stayed for a little longer."
"Second Prince!"
The first person to look at him was an envoy from the Southern Dynasty. He had been away from the Southern Dynasty for a long time and had not even returned for the Chinese New Year. He was still planning to stay? Do you really want to marry into the desert?
Nan Lingfeng shrugged and did not respond.
He believed that those who should know his meaning had already understood.
For example……
Xie Zhan, who had been staring at him, kept silent.
"If the second prince has the chance in the future, he can come and appreciate the scenery of my desert." Xie Zhan forced himself not to look at Mingxiu, staring at Nan Lingfeng with no concealment of hostility.
"must."
He looked at Mingxiu deeply, Nan Lingfeng turned around and returned.
From the same scene, Mingxiu did not have any intersection with Xie Zhan, and even had no eye contact.
In the corner where no one noticed, Mingxiu wanted to leave quietly.
"Prince Showa please stay."
Staring at the old man who called her, Mingxiu only felt familiar at first, and after thinking for a while, she remembered who this person was.
"Eunuch Hou."
She had never had any interaction with the celebrities around the emperor, and Mingxiu looked at the visitor in confusion.
Hou Han didn't keep it a secret, "The Lord wants to see you."
What did the emperor do when he saw her? Mingxiu's first reaction when he heard this was that it was related to Xie Zhan.
But she could not refuse the emperor's summons.
"Sir, Princess Showa is here."
A trace of joy flashed in the little emperor's eyes, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye, "You all retreat."
No one noticed Mingxiu's expression. She secretly glanced at the little emperor.
The child looks quite cute with a serious and stern face.
"Prince Showa, I wonder if there are any other puzzles you have presented before?"
puzzle?
Mingxiu was stunned, "It can be done."
The emperor ran to her happily, "Would you do a few more for me?"
Seeing that she didn't speak, the emperor thought of her doing business every day and added: "I can give you money."
"The Lord is joking, I wonder what kind of puzzle you want?"
Mingxiu laughed silently. Although the little boy in front of her was a lofty emperor, when facing him, she really couldn't put the emperor's identity as serious as him.
"Just give it to me last time... no, just give it to me."
Realizing that his attitude was too kind, the emperor had a stern face and acted seriously.
It’s nothing special to make a toy for the child, but Mingxiu still hesitated.
"I heard that the Lord has a lot of homework."
Is playing puzzles for him a loss of ambition?
Mingxiu is still concerned about the growth of this little flower bud and will not just want to please him.
The little emperor waved his hand heroically, "Those homework is nothing to me!" It's strange!
At this time, Mingxiu could not verify it. She thought about it and it was not good to refuse directly.
"When I look back, my daughter will send it to the emperor, but the emperor must not delay his homework." Mingxiu thought for a while, and there seemed to be no deterrent to these words.
"My daughter will tell Eunuch Hou that if the priest’s homework is not completed, there will be no puzzles in the future."
It is impossible to make random requests.
Hou Han thought that he knew the importance of it.
Angry flashed in the emperor's eyes, "You dare to threaten me? Believe it or not, I took your head off!"
"Then no one will make a puzzle for you from now on." Mingxiu wanted to say it was a toy, but the little emperor seemed to have strong self-esteem and turned his words to his lips.
Does she think this would threaten the emperor?
It's really OK.
The little emperor glanced at her unwillingly, just to see her scared look. It was so boring.
After all, he is the person he likes from the emperor, and he may be his elder sister-in-law in the future, so he dare not go too far.
"Make two more pictures for me, and I won't delay my homework."
It’s not Mingxiu who can tell whether she is delayed or not. She won’t enter the palace often anyway.
Mingxiu raised her eyebrows, "My servant follows the order."
Seeing that he stopped talking, Mingxiu thought there was nothing else to do, so she proposed to leave.
"Wait." The little emperor waved to her with a stiff face. When she arrived, he asked in a low voice: "I heard that your family made a snack called biscuits, which are the most crispy and delicious."
Just say it just by wanting to eat. She thought she was going to listen to some national affairs with a stern face.
In order not to make the child angry, Mingxiu laughed, "When the daughter comes home, she will be ready to deliver it to the emperor."
"Can't you do it in the palace? I'll let the imperial chef give way to you!"
The dim sum is still very hot!
“There is no equipment in the palace.”
There are many people who have made earthy ovens in this era. Most of them are used by stalls selling snacks on the street, such as scones.
There is no special request in the palace.
In order not to let others find out their preferences and be plotted against them, the emperor would not specifically ask for them.
It’s quite pitiful to be an emperor. It seems that I have eaten all kinds of delicacies, but I can’t eat too much of anything, which makes me feel uncomfortable.
Mingxiu was once again grateful, but fortunately he didn't travel to the royal family.
The emperor could only agree unwillingly, "If you want any equipment, go and tell Hou Han, and you will do it on the spot when you enter the palace next time!"
"Okay." Then this time, it shouldn't be used, right?
"Remember to send some snacks!" After instructing the emperor, he was not at ease, so he specially asked the palace maids around him to supervise, and it is necessary to send them as soon as they are done.
Mingxiu: "…"
Is it really good to be so greedy to be an emperor?
The emperor told her with his actions that I thought it was very good.
Mingxiu agreed to make snacks for him. The emperor thought he should repay his favor, so he whispered in her ear: "I heard that the lady of the Shu family has been very close to the emperor's brother recently. Please keep your brother close! Don't let him be snatched away!"
If Mingxiu became his princess, wouldn’t it be convenient for delicious and fun in the future? The emperor’s mind was a joke.
"The daughter and the prince have nothing to do with each other, they just know each other."
Mingxiu lowered her eyes. When she heard the news, she felt a little uncomfortable, but she quickly hid it.
It's only a matter of time before he can get married. She has clearly rejected others. Do you still have to ask the prince to keep his body as a jade-like man to wait for her?
Obviously unrealistic.
Mingxiu can't do such shameless things either.
"Ah? You are not my future sister-in-law." The emperor seemed extremely disappointed, "but they all said..."
"How can rumors be taken seriously?" Mingxiu shook her head with a smile, as if the emperor had just told a joke.
This is true.
Although the emperor was young, he was still very sensible in the royal family.
Without taking the blame, he waved his hand and signaled that Mingxiu could go down. He was thinking hard in the hall. How could he make the rumors come true?
