C30 (1/2)
The next day, when Yan Xiaoxi woke up, she discovered that her entire body was aching and she was feeling even worse than last time.
It wasn't easy for Yan Xiaoxi to get up and finish her breakfast. She wanted to go back to bed and rest, but she really didn't want to move.
She really did not sleep well last night. She suddenly realized that she seemed to have fallen into Nangong Lin's trap.
So the reason why he gave her the osmanthus cake was because he wanted to do that. Suddenly, Yan Xiaoxi felt that Nangong Lin was a bad guy, a bad guy.
”Greetings, Princess Lin.” The Minister of Imperial Household kneeled on the ground, performing the etiquette.
”Get up.” This person, Yan Xiaoxi, recognized him as the eunuch by Nangong Xiao's side.
Yan Xiaoxi discovered that other than being interested in delicious food and beautiful men, her memory was not bad.
”Reporting to royal concubine Lin, the emperor has an invitation.” This was also why the Minister of Imperial Household was here.
”Oh.” Yan Xiaoxi stood up unwillingly. She looked around the room, but she couldn't find Nangong Lin anywhere. Where would this villain go after torturing her?
”Please come with me.” The Minister of Imperial Household led the way, quickly bringing Yan Xiaoxi to the royal study.
”It's fine as long as Princess Lin enters by herself.” When they arrived at their destination, the Minister of Imperial Household was waiting at the door.
The first thing he saw when he pushed the door open was a bright yellow figure. At this moment, Nangong Lin was standing in front of the table.
”Greetings, your Imperial Majesty.” Yan Xiaoxi didn't understand the reason why Nangong Xiao was looking for her, so she remained on high alert.
”Sit down.” Nangong Xiao pointed at the chair below her. Yan Xiaoxi nodded and sat down without any hesitation.
Just as she sat down, Yan Xiaoxi smelled the fragrance that assaulted her nose. Turning her head to look, she saw her favorite food, the top-grade bird's nest porridge.
Yan Xiaoxi swallowed her saliva. Although she had just eaten, she was completely helpless against delicious food.
Nangong Xiao sat on the dragon throne and immediately saw through Yan Xiaoxi's thoughts. ”If you want to eat, then eat.”
”Is that really possible?” Yan Xiaoxi did not expect Nangong Xiao to be so benevolent.
”It's fine.” Nangong Xiao had already experienced Yan Xiaoxi's gluttonous nature. This bowl of bird's nest porridge was prepared for her.
Upon hearing these words, Yan Xiaoxi impatiently picked up the bowl and gulped down the whole bowl of porridge.
Nangong Xiao, who had witnessed everything, could only smile. She could not help but feel that Yan Xiaoxi was actually rather cute.
This appearance was completely different from the impression she gave others yesterday. It was an obvious contrast between an innocent and innocent appearance, and an intelligent appearance.
”So delicious.” After tasting the food, Yan Xiaoxi did not forget to sigh.
”Is Xi Er used to living in the Southern Water Country?” At this moment, Nangong Xiao finally got to the point.
”It's pretty good.” Yan Xiaoxi nodded her head. Nangong Lin had treated him pretty well, apart from the fact that he would occasionally leave her very tired.
”Xi Er's mother is alright, we can invite her to come to the Southern Water Country as a guest.” Nangong Xiao paid extra attention to Yan Xiaoxi's expression the moment she asked that question. It was as though she was trying to discern something from her body.
However, the moment Yan Xiaoxi heard those words, she immediately became dejected. She choked with sobs as she said, ”Mother passed away a long time ago.”
Dead?
In that case, Yan Xiaoxi's mother couldn't be the same person as her? It was even more impossible for her to be her daughter.
So he had guessed wrong. Nangong Xiao heaved a sigh of relief.
”It was I who was rude and made you cry, Xi'er!”
”It's alright, Xi'er just suddenly misses her mother.” Yan Xiaoxi had been envious of having a mother and children since she was young. However, she was actually quite good as well. She had the love of a master and the care of a father.
”Xi Er, if you need anything, feel free to tell me.” Nangong Xiao had only come to find Yan Xiaoxi to test out her suspicions. Since she had already confirmed it, there was no point in leaving her here.
