Hongxia's surprised gaze shifted from Feng Qingyang to Chen Xi. If she could deceive herself and say she saw a ghost when she saw Feng Qingyang just now, then what should she do when she sees Chen Xi smiling meaningfully under the sun?
explain?
"That aunt, you are so arrogant. You even dare to bully Xiao Qian's great-grandmother. How do you think Xiao Qian should praise you?"
The little man broke away from Chen Xi's arms and ran to the astonished Empress Dowager. Like a hen protecting its chicks, it opened its arms to protect the old man behind it.
His expression is as cold and solemn as his father, and he is full of aura at a young age.
"Xiao, Xiao Qian? Is this little fan tuan'er the great-grandson of the Ai family?"
The Empress Dowager opened her eyes wide and looked at the little one in front of her with tears in her eyes. She felt a mixture of emotions in her heart.
The great-grandson she had longed for day and night! Now he was standing in front of her, protecting her with her most precious grandson.
She was so excited that her breathing became difficult again.
"Yang, Yang'er..."
"Royal Grandmother!"
Chen Xi strode up to the Empress Dowager and spontaneously gave the old man a favor without Feng Qingyang opening her mouth.
A steady stream of infuriating energy traveled along several important veins of the old man.
After a while, the old man's pale face gradually softened.
She looked at Chen Xi who was very close with complicated eyes, "Xi'er..."
"Royal Grandma, your body is still very weak. Please lie down first. If you have anything to say, we will talk about it later."
Chen Xi smiled slightly at the Empress Dowager. That smile warmed people's hearts like the warm spring sun.
The empress dowager's eyes were filled with water. With Feng Qingyang's support, she lay back on the bed again and stared at Chen Xi in a daze.
"stop!"
After Chen Xi comforted the Empress Dowager, he turned around and coldly stopped Hongxia, who was stroking the door of the inner room and preparing to leave.
Hongxia's shoulders shook. Feeling guilty, she secretly breathed in and pretended to be calm: "Sixteenth Princess, please go and make two cups of tea for you and the prince."
"No need!"
Chen Xi's eyes fell on Hongxia's slightly pale face for a moment, and he said with a smile: "Hongxia, why don't you dare to look at me? Didn't you look very majestic when you talked to the imperial grandmother just now?
"
"Slave, I don't dare!"
Hongxia seemed to be frightened, and she knelt down on the ground with a plop. Looking at her appearance, she seemed to have the self-knowledge of a slave.
Chen Xi's eyes swept across her face and fell meaningfully on the incense burner she brought in.
Go over and open it gently.
"Well, it smells so good! What is burning here?"
She looked at the small pieces of wood in the incense burner with smoke curling up, and the rich aroma made her dark eyes slightly narrow.
This is the art of bathing.
Lingxiao Kingdom does not have this kind of strange fragrance. If Chen Xi remembers correctly, this thing should only be found in Xiliao.
And its function...
Chen Xi suddenly picked up the teapot beside the table, opened the lid, poured out the tea soup, and decisively doused the burning Mu Shu.
Her actions made Hongxia frown: "Princess, this is the Empress Dowager's favorite woody fragrance. Why did you extinguish it?"
With that said, she stood up and went to get the incense burner.
Chen Xi flicked his finger, and a ray of dark light suddenly shot through Hongxia's hand. Hongxia screamed, and bright red blood gurgled from the back of her hand.
She hurriedly covered it up and retreated to a corner like a snake, looking at Chen Xi in horror.
