Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 581 Precious Gift

Yuan Ce hastily declined: "Your Highness, this subordinate has the duty of personal protection for you, and cannot leave your side even for a single step. If you entrust this matter to your subordinate, this—"

"Ok?"

Yuan Ce's soul came out of his body, and he immediately changed his words: "This is really the right person!"

"Well, that's it." His Highness the Crown Prince scanned the room, then turned his gaze away, and looked at Zhao Xiwei beside him: "As for the Crown Princess——"

Zhao Xiwei's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, this guy smiled, and said slowly: "Forwarding other people's things to Gu, do you want to give me an explanation?"

Explanation?

"Explain what?" Zhao Xiwei was a little dumbfounded, she didn't even know what the gift was, how could she explain it?

"Ok?"

"Ah... that..." Zhao Xiwei hesitated for a while, and suddenly he had an idea, and said: "I heard that the gift from Cousin A Ci is a precious thing, I think the entire East Palace is most worthy of such a precious thing, then Only you, Your Highness. So out of respect—"

She nodded, looking obedient and docile, "Yes! That's it, out of respect, love, and sincerity, I specially forwarded the gift to His Highness..."

"Really?" He gritted his teeth lightly, and put the emphasis on the last two words: "Didn't mean it?"

"Of course not!" Zhao Xiwei touched his hot cheeks, and said confidently, "Cousin Ah Ci said that it was a good thing Mrs. Gu brought over from Guizhou, so it must be something that can't be easily shown to others. A family heirloom. Besides, Your Highness and A Ci are brothers and sisters of cousins, who else is more suitable for this kind of treasure besides you?"

Yuan Ce on the side couldn't bear it anymore, he hesitated to say: "Crown Princess..."

Only after a reminder, Zhao Xiwei gave him a hard look.

Why is this stupid guard getting more and more presumptuous!

Yuan Ce pursed the corners of his lips and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Zhao Xiwei also sensed that there must be something wrong with this gift.

But His Royal Highness was still staring at her, waiting for her to give a satisfactory explanation.

Isn't it just to coax people?What's so difficult about it!
This is not the first time for her, she has never flinched from being listened to by Qiao Yunqian, and it is even more impossible now!

She pursed her lips and smiled, and said softly, "I am so kind to His Highness, and I must be sincere to give you a gift. How could it be intentional?"

"Hmm." His Highness the Crown Prince's eyes moved slightly, and he seemed more moody than before, and asked, "So, what gift does the Crown Princess plan to give Gu?"

"This..." The question was asked suddenly, and Zhao Xiwei was stunned for a moment.

"Why?" He glanced at her mockingly, and said leisurely, "The princess won't just talk casually to make me happy?"

"..."

Everyone present had figured it out: His Highness the Crown Prince is angry, angry that the Crown Princess doesn't take him seriously!

Qiao Yunqian had just escaped a catastrophe, and now she was so nervous that she didn't dare to show her breath. She just looked at Zhao Xiwei for a moment, her eyes were full of helpless sympathy and worry, clearly saying: Sister Wei, you Hurry up and apologize!

Apologize?

how can that be!

He moved his footsteps quietly, approached his side, flicked his sleeves lightly, poked out his fingertips, hooked his thumb as if there was nothing, then raised his face and smiled brightly at him: "It was originally prepared for His Highness." Those who have received presents, but have not had time to deliver them to you..."

Seeing his eyes getting darker and darker, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Actually, it's because the gift is too special. You have to pick an auspicious day, otherwise it will damage your sincerity... If the gift is flawed, His Highness will not want it." right?"

Send a Gift?Still have to pick an auspicious day?

This kind of words can only deceive Yuan Ce, a stupid goose, what kind of big scene has never been seen by His Royal Highness, how can she be deceived by her?
However, Li Xuanye looked down at her fingertips, but chose to believe: "If this is the case, then I will wait for Wei'er's big gift."

After finishing speaking, he held her palm instead, with a calm expression: "Then the princess has a good rest, and will come to see you again on a lonely day."

Zhao Xi was taken aback for a moment, a little unresponsive.

She had obviously coaxed it just now, didn't she?How do you look at your face, are you still not very happy?
What went wrong?

Under her blank gaze, he pulled out his finger, then turned around, lifted the curtain, and stepped out the door.

Zhao Xiwei was left standing there, not thinking about it.

"That..." Yuan Ce coughed lightly, and cupped his hands to break the silence: "Crown Princess, don't you really know what Miss Gu's gift is?"

Zhao Xiwei retracted his gaze and couldn't help being curious: "What is that gift?"

"Ah..." Yuan Ce rubbed the back of his head, a little embarrassed: "It's a pair of gold-inlaid jade bottles, long and narrow, but the size of a palm, very delicate. As for what it contains...His Highness opened it It was plugged up immediately, and the subordinate smelled it from a distance, it seemed to be... medicine."

"Medicine?" Zhao Xiwei was even more puzzled, two bottles of medicine, do you need to spend so much effort?Besides, what medicine deserves to be called a "big gift"?
Yuan Ce looked embarrassed: "The Guizhou region is remote and rich in secret medicines. My subordinates speculate that it is probably something from Xijiwan and Immortal Pill."

Zhao Xi was slightly taken aback, this Gu Yuci really gave her a "precious gift"!

No wonder Li Xuanye was angry.

After Yuan Ce finished speaking, he faltered and said: "Princess Concubine, this subordinate has reported everything to you truthfully, you see—" He glanced at Qiao Yunqian again, "Can you tell me a favor, I will Still busy going to the study to serve His Highness the Crown Prince..."

"This is decided by His Royal Highness, how can I make the decision?" Zhao Xiwei demolished the bridge when he crossed the river, and snorted coldly, "You made Miss Qiao suffer so much, the girl didn't say anything, Did you feel wronged first?"

"Subordinates dare not!" Yuan Ce was so regretful that his intestines were green, "It's just that you also know that Gu Yuci is very good at concocting secret medicines, we..."

Looking at Qiao Yunqian, maybe she felt that she was not worthy of being included, and said in frustration, "If I follow the corner to listen to the corner, in case I get poisoned..."

"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Xiwei was unaware of his pain, and still comforted himself: "Even if you don't believe in yourself, you still have to believe in His Royal Highness. You are his most trusted personal bodyguard. If she dares to touch you With one finger, can His Royal Highness let her go?"

Yuan Ce was dumbfounded: "Prince Princess..."

"Okay!" Zhao Xiwei raised his hand to interrupt him, and calmly promised: "Don't worry, if you are really poisoned, I will pay for the medicine for you."

"Crown Princess, it's not about the medical expenses!" Yuan Ce was miserable, "I, I, I haven't married a wife yet! Is it appropriate for me to be a big man to do things like listening to women's corners?"

"Of course it's suitable!" Zhao Xi smiled like a spring breeze, "Looking at the entire East Palace, you are the best lightness kung fu, flying over the eaves and walking on the walls like walking on the ground, how many times you come and go on my roof like the wind, didn't I not notice it at all?"

"Who said it wasn't!" Qiao Yunqian still didn't forget to make up the knife: "I was hiding behind the screen just now, and he threw me out with one hand!"

"..." Yuan Ce was speechless.

There is a lesson to be learned, this is all following orders!
"What?" Zhao Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, showing the majesty of a princess: "Looking at Commander Yuan's expression, could it be that he has resentment towards me?"

"No, no, no, my subordinates dare not!" Yuan Ce shook his head like a rattle, choked up and said, "Crown Princess, you are so considerate of your subordinates, and your subordinates are, just feel, very touched!"
