When Tianling found Xiao Mingzi, he was squatting behind a rockery outside the imperial dining room, looking at the curling smoke rising inside, nibbling on the overnight steamed buns in his hand, and his expression was extremely enjoyable.

Tian Ling poked him on the shoulder, "Hey, is it delicious?" ”

Xiao Mingzi bounced up from the ground all of a sudden, hurriedly stuffed the steamed bun in his hand into his sleeve pocket, and after seeing that the person who came was Tianling, he exhaled, "You want to scare me to death!" ”

"You're coming to the Imperial Dining Room to eat again?" The Heavenly Spirit couldn't help but laugh.

Xiao Mingzi ignored Tianling's ridicule and smacked her lips, "The braised pork I made today is the best steamed bun." ”

"It's a pity that you're late, although I still have half a steamed bun left, but the braised pork has already been served out of the pot." Xiao Mingzi said with some regret.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry." Tian Ling smiled and said, "I came to you to ask you something. ”

"What's the matter?" Xiao Mingzi took out the steamed bun that had just been stuffed into her pocket and asked while nibbling on it.

"Where are you on an errand now?" The last time Tianling met Xiao Mingzi at the Pinqiu Meeting, the little eunuchs from all the palaces and divisions were there to join in the fun, so Tianling couldn't tell where Xiao Mingzi was on an errand.

Xiao Mingzi collapsed his face, "I don't have any ability, only one strength, the most inferior father-in-law, used to be an errand in the Huanyi Bureau, responsible for fetching water for those palace maids and sisters, one day Mama brought a newcomer and let him do the work of two people alone, he was still injured, I saw that he was pitiful and secretly helped him fetch water once." ”

"Later, someone secretly told the housekeeper about it, and the grandmother didn't want me to eat too much, but now she knew that I had disobeyed her, so she expelled me directly." Xiao Mingzi took a bite of the steamed bun fiercely, "You also know that the result of us being sent back to Yongxiang, all palaces and divisions don't want it, so we can only make up for it when there is a real shortage of people, alas, otherwise I won't secretly pick up the steamed buns thrown away from the imperial dining room." ”

"Did you really pick it up secretly?" Tianling looked at Xiao Mingzi, his expression gradually became serious, the cooking in the imperial dining room is according to the routine, even if there is really a leftover, it will be handled by a special person, and no one will pick it up, if it is discovered, the punishment will be no less than the beating that Wu Quan once suffered.

"Of course I picked it up!" Xiao Mingzi is very reasonable.

Tianling looked at Xiao Mingzi and didn't answer.

Xiao Mingzi was a little apprehensive when he saw it, knowing that he couldn't hide it from the heavenly spirit, his momentum lowered, and he said, "Of course you have to pick up the hungry people, how can you say that you are stealing, and if you don't take it, it will be broken······"

"Why are you hungry? Was the ration robbed? ”

Xiao Mingzi lowered her head and did not speak.

Tian Ling saw his reaction and knew that he had guessed correctly, and Tian Ling sighed, "Do you regret it?" ”

"What?" Xiao Mingzi looked inexplicable.

"Do you regret helping that person fetch water at the Huanyi Bureau?" Tianling looked at Xiao Mingzi, "If you don't help him fetch water, you stay in the Huanyi Bureau, although it is hard, but you can eat enough, right?" ”

Xiao Mingzi shook her head after hearing this, "I don't regret it." ”

"Why?" Heavenly Spirit asked.

"It's strange for you to ask questions." Xiao Mingzi scratched her head, "I think so, how do I know why." ”

"Even if you were kicked out of the Huanyi Bureau after you did it, bullied by other eunuchs in Yongxiang, and you could only smell the smell outside the imperial dining room and eat the overnight hard steamed buns when you were hungry, you won't regret it?" The Heavenly Spirit then asked.

"It's the same thing for me to help him fetch water and see that you are uncomfortable and give you steamed bread slices, I just do that when I think about it, I do what I want to do in my heart, I should be happy, why regret it?" Xiao Mingzi raised her head and looked at Tianling with some incomprehension, "And what you have done, even if you regret it, it is useless." ”

Tian Lingshu smiled at Xiao Mingzi, and his eyes sparkled like little stars.

Xiao Mingzi was stunned, why are these eyes so bright.

"What else did Wu Quan say to you?" The Heavenly Spirit suddenly spoke.

"He asked me to find an opportunity to approach you and talk to you casually." After Xiao Mingzi finished speaking, her eyes widened sharply and she covered her mouth.

"So you came to the Autumn Festival and gave me leftover steamed buns?" The heavenly spirit pretended to be angry.

"Absolutely not! I... I want to see what you look like first, so that I can get closer to you later..." Xiao Mingzi's voice became smaller and smaller, "Who knew that I was watching the excitement, and I was pulled over by you." ”

"Huh? Do you know him? Xiao Mingzi reacted.

"We have read together in the inner study hall." Tianling explained, "He worked hard, but then he made a mistake and was sent to the Huanyi Bureau by Yang Gonggong. ”

"No wonder he came with a bruise." Xiao Mingzi suddenly realized, "But then he broke his leg, and Mama didn't treat her, and I haven't seen him since, if he hadn't asked someone to let me go to the Pinqiu meeting to find you a few days ago, I would have thought he was dead." ”

"He's going to work somewhere else, and I'll take care of you when he leaves." Tianling looked at Xiao Mingzi's ignorant appearance and said with a smile.

"Huh? It's nice to be a good person. Xiao Mingzi believed it and was moved.

Seeing this, in order not to hurt Xiao Mingzi's young heart, Tianling did not tell the truth.

That day, Tianling returned to his residence after the second round of the Autumn Festival, and only then did he have time to open the purse that Wu Quansai gave him, in addition to some silver coins, there was also a note in the purse, which said that he had found someone who could use it with confidence and put it in Yongxiang, called Xiao Mingzi, so that Tianling could see if he used it, and if he could use it, he would stay by his side, and if he didn't need it, he wouldn't have to worry about it.

As for how Xiao Mingzi returned to Yongxiang from the Huanyi Bureau, this is due to Wu Quan, in order to make Xiao Mingzi use the heavenly spirit in the future, he told Xiao Mingzi about helping to fetch water.

This Wu Xiuquan, who has a broken leg, is so mad that he even harms himself! He's a ruthless man!

"Alright, okay, don't eat this." Tianling stopped Xiao Mingzi from putting the hard steamed bun in his hand into his mouth, "I'll take you somewhere, come with me." ”

Tianling took Xiao Mingzi back to his residence, "Are you afraid of dogs?" ”

"How old? Will it bite? Is there a tie rope? Xiao Mingzi asked three questions directly.

"If you ask about age, it's not big, if you ask about body type······" Tianling was a little hesitant, "I can only say that it is a little round." ”

"No leash, but no bite." Seeing Xiao Mingzi's nervous expression, Tianling comforted, "You wait here for a while, I'll take him out for you to see." ”

Tianling was busy with the affairs of the Autumn Festival during this time, and he didn't have time to slip away from the King of the West, and the dog royal brother returned to the previous state of eating, sleeping, sleeping, and eating, and gained weight at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Tianling walked up to Xiao Mingzi with the dead King Pingxi in his arms, "You try to play with him, he has a good temper." ”

Xiao Mingzi's eyes glowed green the moment he saw King Pingxi, this dog is so fat, the meat must be delicious, right?
