Xia Luoying was about to leave. At this moment, Xiao Huzi had already walked into the kitchen. Seeing Xia Luoying was about to leave, he called out: "Princess——"
Xia Luoying glanced at Xiao Huzi, a little unhappy
"Why are you here? Little Pigeon needs someone to take care of him now."
Xiao Huzi only said: "Little Huzi is a man and can't do fine work. Little Pigeon is fine now. He doesn't need my protection anymore. I just need to protect the princess. That's what Xiao Gezi said."
Xia Luoying stopped talking, knowing that Xiao Huzi's character was too stubborn. Whatever she said, he would always be loyal.
Xia Luoying walked in front, and Xiao Huzi followed behind. As she walked, Xia Luoying said: "You will have dinner with Little Pigeon later! She is not in good health, so it is inconvenient."
"yes"
Xiao Huzi obeyed the order and sent Xia Luoying back to the yard, and then went to the place where the little pigeon lived not far away.
------------------------------------------
As soon as he entered the room, he saw that Ming Qiye was already in the room. Xia Luoying lightly twitched her lips and said, "You're back!"
"where did you go?"
Ming Qiye stood up, gently stroked Xia Luoying's messy hair on her forehead and asked caringly.
Xia Luoying was a little uncomfortable with the intimacy between the two of them at this moment, and it was a little unnatural.
He hid some distance and said: "I went to see the little pigeon and ordered some dishes for her in the kitchen."
Ming Qiye frowned when he heard this and said, "It's okay to go see the little pigeon. The kitchen area should be less busy in the future. What would I do if I bump into you?"
"Um"
Xia Luoying nodded and let Ming Qiye help her sit down without speaking.
But her desire to speak was not written on her face, allowing Ming Qiye to see it clearly
"What's wrong? Is there anything you want to say to me?"
Ming Qiye spoke, Xia Luoying raised her eyes to look at him, and said hesitantly: "No -"
Ming Qiye interrupted her lie and said angrily: "You still said no, look at your face, eyes, and forehead. It says that you have something to tell me! I am listening! Otherwise, I will eat later.
But I can’t listen to you anymore.”
Xia Luoying thought for a while and understood what Xiaoming Qiye meant.
They are going to the lobby for dinner later. There will be many people there, so naturally there is nothing they can do.
She spoke slowly and said, "You and Concubine Chen, do you know each other?"
Ask layer by layer, but don’t be too direct, otherwise you won’t achieve the desired results.
Ming Qiye looked at Xia Luoying in confusion, turned his black eyes, and asked: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"
Xia Luoying twitched the corner of her mouth, and she realized that Ming Qiye and Concubine Chen really knew each other. She added, "Do you remember that it was Concubine Chen who took me out of the Queen Mother's Cining Palace yesterday?"
Ming Qiye nodded, and Xia Luoying added, "I remember you watching me and taking care of myself. Now that I think about it, are you worried that Concubine Chen will hurt me?"
Ming Qiye was speechless and looked at Xia Luoying blankly, acquiescing.
Xia Luoying twitched her lips again and said: "I have thought about the matter of the little pigeon being poisoned, and I have some clues."
She paused deliberately to tell Ming Qiye that she suspected Concubine Chen.
Xia Luoying continued: "That day, I hit Sima Yalan twice with the whip, but she was fine but the little pigeon was poisoned. Isn't it strange?"
