Chapter 45: The identity of Xiao's second brother

Xiao Tingxuan looked at the delicate pastries in the glass jar, and his eyebrows tightened. These are all pastries made from six grains, and I was also eyeing these new foods at the beginning, and I wanted to buy out the cultivation from them in exchange for more profits.

Being in the Xiao family, he has no power and no power, if he really has nothing extraordinary, he will definitely be kicked out of the Xiao Mansion soon.

It's just that these six grains were later taken over by the Jin family, and then introduced to His Majesty the Emperor of Northern Qi, plus Xiao Guifei's obstruction.

But he is not a person who gives up lightly, such a profitable business, with the help of the Xiao family's power, he only blew a little wind among those courtiers, and these new foods were all deducted by Youxin.

Originally, he wanted to wait for the rumors to pass and find out from the mouths of those foreign envoys where to hide the rest of their food. When he has freshly bound it, it will naturally be of use to him. I didn't expect these three princesses to take the initiative to send these grains to the door.

It's just that he doesn't understand why, why the third princess knows where these grains are stored, but the jailers have told him that those foreign envoys are hard-mouthed. Could it be that these foreign envoys have always been in contact with the three princesses, so why did she open this pastry, and what was the purpose?

Xiao Tingxuan can only wait and see.

Bai Mengtan and his entourage came out of the teahouse, and happened to bump into Bai Xiyang, who invited the deceased to drink tea.

He saw Bai Mengtan at a glance, shaking the folding fan, pretending to be in a chic posture, and walked up with a hippie smile to say hello, "Hello Bai family junior!" ”

Bai Mengtan rolled his eyes directly, John is still in prison now, he doesn't know how to save this person, and he still has the heart to invite someone to tea.

"Little prince, good Yaxing, come here to drink tea." Bai Meng smiled and didn't smile, facing him. When Bai Xiyang was caught off guard, he stepped directly on his boots.

Bai Xiyang's eyes widened in pain, and Jun's face instantly turned red. This junior of the Bai family is really revenge, and John's matter is clearly intentional, and he is not at fault. He is also opening up relationships, at least so that John's group will not suffer too much in the dungeon.

And the person he asked today, but he is an expert in plant cultivation, if you want to really grow the grain in John's hands successfully, land is the key, not only to have technology.

Bai Xiyang hurriedly withdrew his foot, so angry that he couldn't say a word.

At this time, Luo Mu, who accompanied him in, saw this scene, although Bai Xiyang did not have much friendship with him, but he could only fight the bully in broad daylight, and he saw it for the first time.

"Your little prince is unreasonable to people, the little prince just wants to say hello to you, why do you bother to speak ill of you."

"I'm evil, Bai Xiyang am evil?" Bai Mengtan clasped his hands in his arms and asked arrogantly.

"Don't be evil, you're not evil at all, you're very gentle." Bai Xiyang replied with a melancholy face.

The errand runner in the teahouse, seeing Bai Mengtan being stopped at the door of the teahouse, knew that she was the master's nobleman, and hurriedly ran upstairs to report the matter to Xiao Tingxuan.

Xiao Tingxuan hurriedly went downstairs and saw Bai Mengtan arguing with Bai Xiyang.

He stepped forward with a pleasant face, ''Yay! It turned out that the little prince didn't go up to sit yet. ‘’

Bai Xiyang glanced at it, Bai Mengtan looked at Xiao Tingxuan's eyes, and expected that Bai Mengtan would come to him when he left the palace this time.

grabbed Bai Mengtan, and said politely to Xiao Tingxuan, "Second son Xiao is polite, I just passed by with a friend, and I don't plan to go in for tea today." ’’

Carrying Bai Mengtan to the restaurant not far away, Bai Mengtan was reluctant at first and then threatened by him with Xia Yeteng, so he had to compromise.

Xiao Tingxuan originally wanted to step forward to stop it, but Bai Mengtan turned his head and signaled that he didn't need to.

Luo Mu admired Xiao Tingxuan's reputation, and was forced to make an appointment with Bai Xiyang today, so he had to salute and leave with them.

Xiao Tingxuan looked at the back of the group of people who were gradually moving away. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing an unfathomable smile, this third princess of the Bai family is really getting more and more interesting? Unexpectedly, she also had an extraordinary relationship with the little prince of the Jin family.

When he arrived at the restaurant, Bai Xiyang took advantage of the time when he asked Luo Mu to order, and vigilantly told Bai Mengtan.

"Third princess, I don't know what the relationship between you and Xiao Tingxuan is, but this person has a bad mind and is not someone you can control."

"Xiao Tingxuan, who is Xiao Tingxuan?" Bai Mengtan's face was confused.

She was very familiar with this name, had she heard it anywhere?

After a while, it seemed to dawn that Xiao Tingxuan was not the second concubine of the Xiao family, and he would come to Qi Capital City, no...... No...... He was the richest man in the Northern Qi Kingdom in the future.

Outsiders call him the second young man of the Xiao family, can it be said. The second brother Xiao she has been calling is Xiao Tingxuan.

Bai Mengtan's face changed rapidly, and he was shocked to drink a few sips of herbal tea, and finally let go of the herbal tea under Bai Xiyang's intervention.

"He asked me to call him Second Brother Xiao, but I didn't know that he was Bai Mengsha's second cousin." Bai Mengtan was melancholy, she was still planning to open a pastry shop with Xiao Tingxuan, if John was imprisoned and had nothing to do with the Xiao family, then she also sent food to the door, is this clearly a sheep in the tiger's mouth?

"It's not too late to know!" Bai Xiyang proudly informed, complacent that he had told Bai Mengtan the truth.

Bai Mengtan picked up the tea in his hand and splashed it directly on Bai Xiyang's face, calling angrily.

"Sanshu, Jiale, let's go back."

Bai Xiyang wiped the tea on his face with his hands, depressed that he was provoking someone.

Luo Mu also happened to come back, looked at Bai Xiyang, who was in a mess, and asked in confusion, "Little prince, what's wrong with you?" ”

''Sir, I think it's too hot to wash with tea?'' Bai Xiyang replied angrily.

Luo Mu nodded, indicating that he really couldn't understand the interests of these sons.

Bai Mengtan seems to have fled back to the palace in a hurry.

Seeing that her master was back, Zhu Zhu swept away the previous unpleasantness, brought a bowl of bird's nest porridge to Bai Mengtan, stirred it with a small golden spoon for a while, and made sure it was not hot before handing it to her.

Bai Mengtan tasted bird's nest porridge, which was her favorite food on weekdays, which couldn't arouse her interest, so she simply returned the porridge to Zhuzhu and lay on the desk to ponder.

Zhuzhu took the bird's nest porridge and naturally understood what the master meant, three times five divided by two, and soon the bowl of porridge was turned upside down.

Zhuzhu wiped her small mouth, because she was just busy drinking porridge, she would notice the master's displeasure, it wouldn't be because she finished drinking the porridge, right?

Her eyes immediately glanced at Jiale who stood in the corner and accompanied Bai Mengtan out of the palace, Jiale shook his head and said that he really didn't know.

Zhu Zhu hurriedly thought of a way to please Bai Mengtan, "Third princess, the slave maid has good news for you, one is to hear from the maid in Xiang Xiao Palace, who said that Xiao Guifei's figure has suddenly become fat for some reason recently, and even the clothes that were ordered not long ago began to be worn. "And ......" After all, there are some things that Zhuzhu is worried that the wall has ears, so she has to arrange Jiale out.

Bai Mengtan also acquiesced, presumably what Zhuzhu was going to say next was related to the sachet she gave to Xixiang.

"The slave maid has already found out that Xixiang sold the sachets we gave her to the maids in the palace of the eldest princess and the palace of Xiangxiao. Privately, I heard that Concubine Xiao often slept until midnight, and her stomach occasionally had a faint pain, but the imperial doctor also went to see it, and it was fine. ”

"It's fine." Bai Mengtan came to the spirit, you must know that the medicine given to her by the son of the world is chronic, which will only delay the growth of the fetus in the mother's body, and finally wait until the toxicity gradually invades the fetus's body, and the fetus is stillborn sooner or later, I am afraid that the fetus will absorb too much nutrients in the mother's body, and the volume will be too large, and dystocia will be inevitable.

She tinkered with a potted plant on the tea table, which she had brought from her brother. The flowers in this pot are like chrysanthemums but not chrysanthemums, and they are black flowers, which is inevitably too sweeping to look at.

How could such low-level flowers and plants accompany her, her son's brother. In order not to dirty Xia Yateng's eyes, she reluctantly accepted the flower.

Partial courtyard bamboo building.

"Sanshi, where is the black chrysanthemum I planted in the courtyard?" Xia Yeteng asked loudly, but he spent a lot of money on this pot of flowers, and finally brought it in from the Western Regions.

"That...... The subordinates seemed to see that the third princess ordered yesterday morning that the flowers were too ugly to bloom and simply hugged them out. Sanshi replied honestly.

In the face of Bai Mengtan, he couldn't deal with it.

"It's ugly that she still has to take it away, go and get it back for me, and if you can't bring back the flowers, I'll cut you into flowers." ’

"My subordinates obeyed." Sanshi wept and walked out of the yard.

Xia Yeteng was heartbroken, he hadn't forgotten that the pot of hanging basket flowers he had just moved back was hung by the window of the bamboo building, planning to appreciate it slowly, but he didn't expect the little girl to take advantage of the time when he went downstairs, so he cut it seven times and cut it, and made a wreath of the spider plant, and he thought that the color on this wreath was too monotonous, you must know that she cut him a few hundred taels of silver with a casual cut.

At this time, Miki came back from the Zixuan Palace, carrying the pastry that Bai Mengtan had prepared for Xia Yeten.

Natsuya eats pastries and listens to Mitsuki's report on what happened outside the palace.

Knowing that Bai Mengtan had already learned Xiao Tingxuan's identity from Bai Xiyang's mouth, he was not surprised, the little girl would have to know about this matter sooner or later.

As for whether she wants to cooperate with Xiao Tingxuan in the future, she likes it. As long as she speaks, he can help her solve the matter of John and Liugu.

Sanshi finally snatched the pot of black chrysanthemum back from Bai Mengtan's hand, but only a bare branch remained.

Natsuyoto gritted his teeth, jealous.

scolded "Bai Mengtan." ”

At this time, Bai Mengtan was resting in the room, shivered, covered the quilt and continued to sleep.

In her sleep, she dreamed of a heavy rainstorm near the end of autumn, and the silver boy stood on a tall building with an umbrella and looked into the distance, and the rolling river swept under the tall building.

Bai Mengtan woke up from his dream and tried to try to recall the past life.

Where did the river come from, as if it were going to flood a city?

And that city was so familiar, Bai Mengtan suddenly remembered that just two months later, the entire Northern Qi Kingdom had rained heavily for more than half a month, and the water level of the moat outside the Qi capital gradually rose. The people of the city were in danger of being flooded by the river at any time, and the officials of the DPRK and China were helpless.

In the end, it was the prince of Yanbei who asked for his life, used explosives to blow up the riverbed for several days, opened mountains to divert water, and built embankments, which saved the entire Qidu City from being in trouble. At that time, he gradually showed his edge.

The corners of Bai Mengtan's mouth inexplicably hooked up a smirk, it turned out that her brother was still a hero who saved the country. In his previous life, he was still angry because his father ordered him to bring him food.

deserved it, she was calculated by Xiao Guifei's mother and daughter later, and even she herself looked down on herself in her previous life.
