Chapter 39: Stealing fragrance in the morning
When Xiahou went to court in the morning, he was thinking about what to buy and eat when he went home, and his mind was not on the court.

As soon as Nangong Rui said he would withdraw from the court, Xia Houqi walked out of the palace without stopping.

As soon as he reached the palace gate, he was stopped by Xiao Changheng.

"My lord, stay here——"

Xia Houqi turned around, looked at the visitor, and frowned slightly, "Master Xiao, what do you want to see me for?"

"It's nothing serious, I just want to ask how my little girl is doing these days? My little girl has never been back to the Xiao Mansion since she married the prince, and I miss her very much." Xiao Changheng smiled and expressed his feelings for his daughter.

Xia Houqi glanced at Xiao Changheng coldly and said, "If General Xiao wants to see his daughter, I will let her go home to visit relatives. If I miss Concubine Xiao in the future, I can just send a letter home directly without informing me."

"Your Majesty understands the great righteousness, and I am very grateful."

Xia Houqi didn't understand what medicine Xiao Changheng was selling in his gourd, so he quickly left the palace after taking one look at him.

Xiao Changheng showed a meaningful smile.

When passing by the bun shop, Xia Houqi stopped the carriage and went to buy a few buns himself.

Then I saw a small vendor selling candied haws on the side, so I spent a lot of money and bought a handful of candied haws skewers.

When Chu Xi saw a whole handful of candied haws, her eyes widened.

"Your Majesty, are these all for me?" Chu Xi asked in surprise.

Xia Houqi was very satisfied with Chu Xi's expression, "They're just some gadgets. If you want them, I'll just buy them for you every day in the future."

He liked to see the light in Chu Xi's eyes and the admiration for him, which made Xia Houqi very satisfied.

"Thank you lord!"

Chu Xi happily took the candied haws, and then generously gave two skewers to each of Feiyun Huanyun. Neither of them thought that they had a share, so they happily took it.

Xia Houqi looked at Chu Xi eagerly and waited for her to give him two skewers. However, until Chu Xi put the candied haws skewers away and opened the buns wrapped in oil paper, she had no intention of giving him two skewers. So cold-faced.

"Chu Xi's many bunches of candied haws, won't you even give me two of them?"

Hearing this, Chu Xi raised her head and looked at him, "Here, they are all over there. If you want, the prince, you can take them yourself. I can't keep my hands free when I'm eating steamed buns."

After Chu Xi finished speaking, she focused on eating the meat buns and was very happy with them.

Xia Houqi remained motionless, looking at Chu Xi with a very threatening look, and then looked at the maids on the side. Seeing that they were just like their masters, eating steamed buns happily, Xia Houqi's face turned completely dark. .

In her heart, this king is not as good as two maids? ? ?
Perhaps after receiving Xia Houqi's frightening gaze, Feiyun Huanyun didn't even bother to eat the buns. After saying that he had something to do, he went down.

"Huanyun, the look in the prince's eyes just now was so scary. Are you blaming us and the young master for eating steamed buns?" Feiyun patted her chest and said fearfully.

"How can that be possible? The prince is just too fond of it. He feels that the young master gave us the candied haws and didn't share it with the prince." Huan Yun had already seen through everything and said with a helpless smile.

"Ah? Really? But didn't the prince buy the candied haws for the young master? Why did the young master want to share it with him?"

Feiyun couldn't understand the stakes.

"Forget it, you are so stupid. Don't speak in front of the prince and my master in the future. Otherwise, if you offend the prince one day, I will not be able to save you."

"Hey, if Huanyun is here, you will help me, right?"

Huan Yun glanced at Fei Yun angrily and said nothing more.Inside the room, Xia Houqi watched with disgust as Chu Xi ate until her mouth and hands were all oily. Then he patiently took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands and mouth clean.

Finally, when Chu Xi wasn't paying attention, he gently pecked the corner of her mouth.

After Chu Xi reacted, she clenched her fists and hit Xia Houqi on the chest.

"Taking advantage of others' danger is the behavior of a villain."

"A villain is a villain. Chu Xi can say whatever he likes. I don't care."

Xia Houqi, who had succeeded in stealing the fragrance, was in a good mood at the moment. Even when Chu Xi scolded him, he felt sweet.

Xia Houqi's remarks successfully earned her a blank stare.

"By the way, after you went to court this morning, the housekeeper came over and said that he had found out who was the person who murdered Xiao Tian."

"Oh? Who is it?" Xia Houqi asked nonchalantly.

"It was the cook who prepared the bones for Xiaotian. He said that when I took Xiaotian to the kitchen that day, Xiaotian accidentally broke the chicken soup that he had carefully prepared for a long time. That's why he gave it to him because of his grudge. Xiaotian poisoned him." Chu Xi said slowly.

Xia Houqi looked into Chu Xi's eyes the whole time and saw that she really believed this rhetoric. He couldn't help but curl his lips and asked, "What next?"

"It's nothing more. The housekeeper asked me how to deal with it, and I told him to deal with it how to deal with it."

"Well, just let the housekeeper handle it. You don't have to worry about such trivial matters." Xia Houqi responded calmly.

Obviously, this rhetoric is full of loopholes.

Do you want to kill Xiao Tian because Xiao Tian broke the chicken soup he made?Only a silly girl like Chu Xi would believe this statement.

That's all, he just asked people to find out and then solve the trouble.

In the next few days, Aunt Su kept telling Chu Xi what things to pay attention to after returning to the palace. She talked to Chu Xi about the current situation in the palace for several days, and Chu Xi also remembered every bit of it in her mind, for fear that After returning to the palace, he offended people he shouldn't have offended.

"Although the old slave has been telling Di Ji to be careful, Di Ji must not forget that you are the most noble Di Ji. As long as you do your duty well, Di Ji does not need to be afraid of anyone except Your Majesty. Your Majesty He Wanshengguo is Di Ji's confidence in doing things and her support." Aunt Su looked at Chu Xi seriously and said.

Chu Xi also nodded firmly, indicating that she had firmly remembered it.

"Mommy, will you still be by my side after I return to the palace?" Chu Xi felt that if Aunt Su was by her side, her life in the palace would be much easier.

Seeing Chu Xi asking this, Aunt Su's smile became more sincere, "If Di Ji needs me, I will always stay with Di Ji until Di Ji doesn't need me anymore."

For some reason, Chu Xi always felt that Nanny Su's smile was like looking at another person through her. This feeling was stronger than ever.

"Mommy, you seem to be very tolerant of me from the beginning. Is it because of my father?"

Aunt Su smiled softly and touched her head gently, "Di Ji, don't belittle yourself. I am tolerant of Di Ji because Di Ji deserves this."

Hearing what Nanny Su said, Chu Xi felt relieved a lot.

"Mommy, I will definitely work hard to be an empress and live up to the expectations of my father and grandma for me." Chu Xi clenched her little hands and encouraged herself in her heart.

Chuxi, you can definitely do it!
