The two guards looked Angelica up and down, and then looked at the vegetables in the vegetable basket she was carrying, and the two of them looked at each other.

One of them approached the other and asked in a low voice, "What do you think?" ”

"I heard that the emperor personally named the county lord of Anping, not only born very beautiful, but also very capable, she was born in a farmer's family, is helping the emperor to plant the royal farm, look at the vegetables in her basket, it should be the county lord of Anping, otherwise, where will there be so many rich vegetables?"

The two guards nodded to each other, and then the two separated, and one of them said, "Wait a minute, you two, wait for me to go in and make an announcement." ”

Angelica smiled and nodded: "There is labor." ”

After a while, the guard walked out, and with him came a middle-aged man.

When the middle-aged man saw Angelica and Long Xilin, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"It turned out to be the county lord of Anping and General Long, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited."

Angelica nodded slightly, then followed the man and walked inside.

While leading the way in front, the man said with a smile: "I am the housekeeper of the East Palace, surnamed Qiu, and the two of you can call me Steward Qiu." ”

Steward Qiu took Angelica and Long Xilin to a living room in the East Palace.

Steward Qiu: "Please wait, the prince will be here soon." ”

Angelica and Long Xilin nodded slightly, and Long Xilin: "Steward Qiu, please, let's just wait here ourselves." ”

Steward Qiu turned around and left.

The two waited for a while, and suddenly heard footsteps outside, and the two of them looked at the door together, only to see Steward Qiu walking in lightly with Prince Long.

When Long Qingqing saw Angelica, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he was about to say hello to her, when he suddenly saw Long Xilin, who was standing on the side, and his heart suddenly chuckled.

Why did he come too?

Long Qingqing retracted the smile on his face, he looked at Long Xilin, then at Angelica, and asked, "The two distinguished guests suddenly visited, I don't know what to do?" ”

Angelica took a step forward, handed over the vegetable basket in his hand, and said with a smile: "Last time, thanks to His Royal Highness the Prince, I sent me a lot of lotus roots, and today, I came to thank His Royal Highness the Prince."

The vegetables in this are all grown at home by myself and given to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to taste. ”

Long Qingqing stretched out his hand to take it, and said with a smile: "That's a good feeling, recently, the kitchen is full of old dishes, even if there are some vegetables from southern Xinjiang, but they are not so fresh, unlike the one that the county lord of Anping brought today, it is very fresh, and it is delicious at a glance." ”

"It's good if the prince likes it."

"Is there a lot of vegetables planted by the county lord of Anping, and I want to eat them in the palace, I don't know if I can pick them from you?"

Long Qingqing had long wanted to go to Angelica, but because of Long Xilin, he didn't dare to go, and now Angelica and Long Xilin took the initiative to deliver food, so he naturally wanted to seize this opportunity.

Before Angelica could answer, Long Xilin had already taken the lead in speaking: "The county lord doesn't plant a lot over there, and you know, Your Royal Highness the Prince, the county lord still has to help the emperor take care of the royal farm, so there is not so much time to stay in the lotus garden to grow vegetables." ”

Long Qingqing secretly gave Long Xilin a roll of his eyes in his heart, but he didn't refute it.

After all, everyone knows that Long Xilin and Angelica are married, even if he really has a heart for Angelica, the emperor will not allow it.

Long Qingqing handed the vegetable basket in his hand to Steward Qiu: "Take these dishes down and do it, prepare a table of dinner, this palace is going to feast on the county lord of Anping and General Long today." ”

"Yes."
