Chapter 398 Pork Rib Soup

The prince was not knocked out, and he was not as incompetent as people saw, but in order to shorten the distance between him and his brothers, he learned to restrain his edge and make himself look ordinary.

After all, an incompetent person, even if he is a famous teacher, may not be able to comprehend well, and be able to handle the affairs of the court well in a short period of time.

Not to mention, it is not easy for those [-] minded officials to balance them.

However, he was still very moved. Chatting with Li Jing tonight was the most correct choice for him.

What Cui Yuexi said is right, the most important thing between relatives is communication, even if there is less communication between close people on weekdays, rifts will gradually arise.

Thinking of Li Jing's calm treatment, the prince smiled happily and turned over to sleep.

Li Jing left the palace overnight and was about to leave the palace gate when she was stopped by Nanny Liu in Concubine Xian's palace.

"Fourth Prince, Concubine Xian is here to invite you."

Li Jing nodded, and then followed Nanny Liu to Concubine Xian's bedroom. Concubine Xian was waiting for him. As soon as Li Jing entered the door, he could smell the familiar aroma of stewed pork ribs with lotus root. He was a little surprised that Concubine Xian came so late. He drinks a bowl of soup.

"I heard that you drank a lot of wine in the East Palace. This Palace has someone stew pork ribs and lotus root soup for you. You can drink a bowl before going back."

Concubine Xian said, Madam Liu served Li Jing a bowl.

Li Jing readily took it, he was a little surprised, Concubine Xian had been making four gentlemen's soup for him, why did it suddenly change today.

Li Jing took a sip, and the taste was indescribable.

Compared to the delicious soup Cui Yuexi cooked, if this soup was not brought to him by Concubine Xian, he would have suspected that someone was trying to murder him.

It's just too bad to drink. The lotus root soup is supposed to be fresh and sweet, but the soup turned out to be very bitter.

"Is it delicious?" Concubine Xian asked with eyes full of anticipation. Li Jing looked at her eager eyes, and suddenly a guess arose in his heart. Could it be that Concubine Xian cooked this soup!
Li Jing took a deep breath and drank the soup in one gulp. After all, it was Concubine Xian's kindness, and he couldn't bear to hurt him.

"Liu Nanny, give me a bowl to try." Concubine Xian asked, but Li Jing hurriedly refused.

"Mother Liu, this soup is very delicious. This king likes it very much. If my concubine likes it, I will let the servants make it for you tomorrow. Today I am very drunk and thirsty, so don't fight with me, concubine mother."

Concubine Xian could only agree to what Li Jing said, and her heart was full of joy. It is the first time to cook, as long as Li Jing likes it so much.

When she was chatting with Cui Yuexi, she accidentally learned that Li Jing's favorite was not Four Gentlemen's soup, but lotus root pork ribs soup. She tried hard to learn how to make it, but she did not expect to be so successful.

"I'll give you whatever you like."

Grandma Liu brought two more bowls of soup, and Li Jing blew it off gently, and drank it all in two gulps.

He put down the bowl and poisoned the two bowls of hot soup, the discomfort in his stomach was not relieved, but even more intense.

"Mother and concubine, it's getting late, and Yuexi is worried, so I will take my leave first."

After Li Jing bid farewell to Concubine Xian, she got up and left. Concubine Xian watched him leave, looked at the bowl of soup that had been drunk, and smiled, "It's different after marrying a wife. It is indeed more human than before."

Concubine Xian finished speaking, and motioned to Mammy to help her go back to rest. After Concubine Xian lay down, Mammy Liu and others broke off the spare ribs and lotus roots left in the stew. The pork ribs in the pot were eaten and opened, and when the ribs were put into their mouths, several people vomited them out, feeling sorry for Li Jing even more.

The ribs are so unpalatable, it is conceivable that the taste of the soup is definitely not much better.

"Thinking that the fourth prince guessed that the soup was cooked by the concubine Xian himself, hey, it's really embarrassing for the fourth prince."

Mother Liu felt sorry for Li Jing, thinking of Concubine Xian's excited look when she saw Li Jing drink up the soup, she couldn't help worrying about Li Jing, I'm afraid that Concubine Xian will inevitably cook soup for Li Jing in the future.

"terrible."

The maids lamented that they did not expect such tasteless ingredients to be made into such an unpalatable taste.

"Don't say anything about this."

Madam Liu told her that if Concubine Xian knew about it, she would feel sorry for Li Jing again.

Since Li Jing drank so happily, he can only be wronged to continue to be abused in the future. After all, this soup embodies the concubine Xian's full love for Li Jing.

Even though the taste is not good, it contains affection.

Li Jing vomited it out as soon as she left the palace gate. She didn't get up to leave until she felt that the soup and wine in her stomach had been vomited out and felt better.

When he returned to Liu Guogong's mansion, he did not go through the main entrance, but directly flew into the Haitang Pavilion where Cui Yuexi was. Cui Yuexi had already fallen asleep. After Li Jing washed up, he returned to the room, and Cui Yuexi woke up just as he was sitting by the bed. When he opened his eyes, he saw Li Jing came back, his slender arms gently wrapped around Li Jing's waist, and he continued to sleep in her arms.

Li Jing yawned. He was really tired tonight. After dealing with the crown prince, he had to deal with the concubine Xian. It really cost him half his life. In the future, he will have to look at the almanac when he enters the palace. Don't go through such a thing. up.

The elegant fragrance of Cui Yuexi's body lingered in his nostrils, Li Jing sniffed the elegant fragrance of his body, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.

This night, Li Jing slept very peacefully, but the capital city, which had been quiet for two days, set off another bloody storm this night.

Xue Baihu's family in Dali Temple vomited misfortune, if Xue Baihu hadn't had great kung fu, he would have died in this midnight.

The city of Kyoto suddenly became lively, and the streets and alleys were full of officers and soldiers, searching for suspicious persons closely.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Xing Chuan appeared outside the window and tapped lightly on the window lattice. Li Jing suddenly opened his eyes, carefully pulled away Cui Yuexi's hand on his waist, and gently got out of bed, pulling off his clothes while putting them on, while Go outside.

"What happened?"

Li Jing knew very well that Xing Chuan would not disturb his rest so late, so it must be a big accident to come over suddenly.

"Master, Xue Baihu was assassinated unsuccessfully, and now he is leading people to search the whole city."

Xing Chuan's voice came, Li Jing had already put on her clothes, took the fur and put it on her shoulders, before leaving, she didn't forget to go back to the room to cover Cui Yuexi with a quilt, and then turned and left.

Inside the capital city, the city guards were looking around with torches in their hands. Even though Xue Baihu was injured, he still came to arrest him himself, but the man disappeared as if he had evaporated from the world.

When Li Jing returned to the palace, he ordered Xingchuan to invite Xue Baihu over, and the two came back not long after.

When Li Jing saw Xue Baihu, he couldn't help frowning. He had seen Xue Baihu's kung fu before, and it was not something ordinary people could hurt.

The person who can seriously injure him must be very skilled.

Xue Baihu cupped his luggage, Li Jing motioned him to sit down and said.

After thanking Xue Baihu, he walked to the chair and sat down carefully.
