"The prince is working so hard this time, why would you go out for a walk?" Cheng Muqing blinked and suggested.

"Yes." Lin Heng nodded.

"It's time for Lu Xiu to find you to paint." Cheng Muqing said, "Go back to the house to change your clothes and go."

"Okay." Lin Heng was very happy. In fact, as long as things involved Cheng Muqing, he would be very happy.

The two of them put on a green plain dress, put on a hat, and left the palace.

It’s warm and cold winter, and the weather is no longer so cold in March. Peach blossoms are blooming, and the market is full of vitality. Even the shouting is much louder than in winter.

Cheng Muqing grabbed his sleeve and his eyes slid around. He looked at this and that one at a time.

To be honest, she hasn't gone shopping for a long time.

"Candy haws." Lin Heng paused.

"Do you want to eat?" Cheng Muqing also stopped, suddenly remembering Lin Heng's kidnapped before, "I seem to owe you a candied haw."

"No... you don't owe me." Lin Heng shook his head.

"Oh? Then go, I won't eat anymore." Cheng Muqing pulled his sleeve.

The other party frowned and looked aggrieved.

"Prince, do you want to eat?" Cheng Muqing looked at him excitedly, with a trace of cunning in his eyes, "If you want to eat, my sister will buy it for you."

Lin Heng could feel that she was teasing himself. He pouted and said reluctantly, "Sister, I want to eat."

"So good." Cheng Muqing touched his head and bought two candied haws with a smile.

The candied haws are made of large and full hawthorns, wrapped in a layer of syrup and sprinkled with white sesame seeds.

After biting it, the sugar coating is crisp and sweet, and the sourness of the hawthorn will be quickly sweetened and neutralized.

The fragrance of white sesame, the sweetness of sugar coating, the sourness of hawthorn, and the taste progresses layer by layer.

"How is it?" Cheng Muqing ate quickly, with only half of the candied haws left in his hand.

"Yes." Lin Heng nodded and stuttered.

He ate very gentle, as if he was savoring it carefully.

"Aheng, have you eaten it before?" Cheng Muqing asked him.

Lin Heng shook his head.

It is not easy to survive in Qiguo. Where did so many different foods come from?

Cheng Muqing's eyes showed a hint of distress, "Don't worry, after following me in the future, I will definitely let you eat a lot of delicious food!" She wanted to say a hundred "many".

"Thank you." Lin Heng stood still, looking at her with deep eyebrows and eyes.

"What are you grateful for?"

"Please treat me to candied haws."

"What's there to thank for?" Cheng Muqing pulled his sleeve and walked to a stall, "Boss! Come and fry a cherry."

The stall owner immediately made a copy.

"Eat." Cheng Muqing stuffed it into his arms, took him a few more steps, bought candy fried chestnuts, roasted pork, and cold cakes...

Just when Cheng Muqing wanted to buy some more, Lin Heng stopped him in time.

"I'm full..." Lin Heng's stomach was so swollen that he was still holding the unfinished snacks in his hand.

"Oh!" Cheng Muqing exclaimed and hurriedly took the remaining snacks from him. "It's because I didn't estimate your little stomach."

"without……"

"It just so happened that the pleasure boat has arrived," Cheng Muqing hugged a bunch of food and smiled at him, "Let's go in and have a rest."

"Okay." Lin Heng followed her obediently.

The two entered the painting workshop and a servant came to pick him up immediately.

The painting workshop is large and carved from mahogany, with lifelike landscapes and animals on it. The attic is divided into three levels, one layer of guests, one layer of treasures, and one layer of separate private rooms.

The servant led the two straight up to the third floor.

Lin Heng was a little afraid of heights. When he climbed to the third floor, he followed Cheng Muqing closely, for fear of falling down.

"Your Highness is waiting in this room first, and then there will be someone coming to ask for a portrait." The servant made a "please" gesture.

Lin Heng glanced at Cheng Muqing.

"Aheng, you can solve this problem yourself, so I won't accompany you..." Cheng Muqing said, "Is that OK?"

He knew that she wanted to exercise herself.

Yet, he really relies too much on her.

If he hadn't relied on her too much and wanted to keep the bond of the same fate as her. Last time he was assassinated, Cheng Muqing would not have to think about protecting himself at all times, causing him to be injured.

Just as he was thinking, his eyes fell on her chest.

It seemed as if I wanted to look through my clothes and see the wound.

He really can't rely on her like this anymore, and she will worry about it all the time.

"Yes." Lin Heng nodded in a depressed manner, turned around and walked straight into the room.

He sat in front of the desk, his eyes dissipated for a moment. But then, he regained his calmness, looked up at Cheng Muqing outside the house, and gave her a faint smile.

He smiled like a spring breeze, and there was no trace of nervousness in his eyes.

The disaster relief silver case seemed to have made him grow up in an instant.

Cheng Muqing was a little hesitant, but a warm and healing smile appeared on his face.

Lin Heng became stronger step by step, which was what she hoped.

Soon, someone came up and sat opposite Lin Heng, and let Lin Heng paint the picture.

There are not many people entering and leaving the art workshop, most of them cultivate their sentiments. They come here to find out if there are any paintings or calligraphy suitable for hanging on the wall.

Cheng Muqing saw many famous calligraphy and famous paintings here.

I don’t know... a hundred years later, will Lin Heng’s paintings be hung here?

She felt a little sad.

"Princess Qi."

Someone called her.

Cheng Muqing turned around and bowed to the visitor, "Boss Lu."

"I just saw His Highness, King Qi." Lu Xiu spoke slowly, "I feel like he has changed a lot."

Cheng Muqing didn't say anything, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"I'm a little curious." Lu Xiu lowered his voice, "What's going on with the disaster relief bank about the current Ministry of Revenue?"

"Zhao Liangxu was greedy and was captured. After the king rescued him, he was then the prince's man named Huang Bi was behind him."

"What you said is simple." Lu Xiu smiled and shook his head, "But why do I think... things are very complicated?"

"You think, just you think." Cheng Muqing's voice was lazy.

"Also, who was the one who assassinated you?" Lu Xiu turned his back with both hands and looked down at the group of guests coming and going downstairs.

"Last time, you were just affected." Cheng Muqing said, "Since you are not injured, don't worry." She could only comfort him like this.

"But I can still feel a deep fear." Lu Xiu lowered his eyes and sighed, "Thank you, Princess Qi."

"Why are you polite?" Cheng Muqing felt a little embarrassed.

"Princess Qi, I have been doing business for many years, and I am a small connection here. Do you have anything to do with me to spread it?"

"Since it's mentioned, it's true." Cheng Muqing smiled, "Your Highness the King of Qi is only dedicated to Princess Qi. This time he participated in the disaster relief silver case because... he was jealous of the prince. You can spread it like this."

After getting to know Lu Xiu, Cheng Muqing asked Xixi to investigate. He found that Lu Xiu was a completely wealthy businessman, with a wide connection and had his own secret whistle, and he really had many secrets. He usually wanted to find him any gossip.

"Is this the truth?" Lu Xiu sneered.

"No matter what, it is a fact." Cheng Muqing was sure.
