Chapter 43: You feed the king

It was Luo Yao who rescued Xiaoxue in the front yard today.

"The slave maid came to bring lunch to the princess, and when she saw that the courtyard door was open, she came in by herself, and she didn't disturb the princess, right?" Xiaoxue said respectfully.

"Give it to me!"

"Slave and maid help you put it in the house!"

Luo Yao hurriedly refused, "No, I'll just come by myself." ”

She took the tray, put the food back in the house, and turned it back outside the door.

Seeing that she came out again, Xiaoxue hurriedly said: "The princess is eating in the house, and the slave and maid are waiting outside the door." ”

"It's such a hot day, how can you wait in the courtyard, you go back first! Come back in half an hour to clean up. ”

"......"

"Go ahead!"

"The slave went first."

Seeing Xiaoxue walk out, Luo Yao seemed to think of something, and hurriedly caught up, "Xiaoxue, you wait!" ”

Xiaoxue immediately stopped and looked back at her.

"What else does the princess command?"

"You've been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for a few years, right?"

Xiaoxue nodded, and counted with her fingers seriously, "The slave maid came to the Prime Minister's Mansion at the age of eight, and it has been several years." ”

"Then do you know about the eldest lady's illness?"

When Xiaoxue heard this, she lowered her head nervously and replied in a muffled voice, "No, I don't know." ”

"Really?"

She could see at a glance that Xiao Xue's reaction was wrong, so she naturally wouldn't believe Xiao Xue's words.

Xiao Xue raised her eyes and looked around, and reminded in a low voice: "Since the second lady entered the mansion, no one in the mansion is allowed to mention the matter of the eldest lady again, and the slave and maid dare not speak falsely. ”

Luo Yao closed the courtyard door and returned to Xiaoxue, "I don't mean anything else, I just want to hear about my mother." ”

Xiaoxue wanted to speak and stopped looking at her, thinking that she had helped herself today, and she should repay her kindness.

After weighing, Xiaoxue said truthfully: "I occasionally go to the back kitchen to do chores, and I heard the grandmothers in the back kitchen talk about the eldest lady's illness, they said that the eldest lady is so sick that she can't eat anything, how to send the daily meals, how to get them back, and they are all worried about cooking for the eldest lady." ”

Luo Yao knows all this.

"What else?"

"And ......" Xiaoxue glanced at her, suddenly lowered her eyes, and didn't dare to continue.

"Don't hesitate to speak up."

"I heard from the grandmothers that when the eldest lady was sick, the prime minister didn't return home all night, as if she was ...... Second lady there. ”

In Luo Yao's memory, the time when Lan Qin was seriously ill was also the day when Luo Zhenming's official duties were heavy, and he looked physically and mentally exhausted every time he came back, Lan Qin didn't have to worry about her in order not to distract him and let him handle official business with peace of mind.

I never thought that Luo Zhenming was not busy with official business at all, but was busy with his outer room.

What an irony!

His wife is seriously ill in bed, Luo Zhenming still has thoughts outside and in the outer room, won't his conscience hurt?

There are all kinds of signs that the people who want Lan Qin's death the most are Luo Zhenming and Shu Qing, and they must have nothing to do with Lan Qin's death.

But at the moment, she has no evidence, and they will not admit to harming Lan Qin.

She will find evidence to avenge Lan Qin.

"After the second lady entered the mansion, she dismissed all the people in the mansion, and the grandmothers also knew about this from the mouths of those grandmothers in the past." Xiaoxue said again.

Luo Yao asked again: "Then do you know who the doctor who was treating the eldest lady at that time?" ”

Xiaoxue shook her head, "The slave doesn't know. ”

Luo Yao sighed lightly, Xiaoxue only entered the mansion after Lan Qin's death, and it was normal not to know.

Just when she was about to ask someone else, Xiaoxue spoke again, "Don't worry, princess, the slave can quietly ask someone else." ”

"Thank you."

Xiaoxue smiled at her, "The princess is kind to the slave maid, and the slave maid is to repay the princess." ”

The two said a few more words, and Xiaoxue left.

Luo Yao returned to the house and saw that Xiao Yan was still lying on the bed, and the dining table on the table was restored and placed on the table.

She raised her eyes to look at Xiao Yan and asked, "Are you going to starve yourself to death?" ”

"This king is injured, it is not appropriate to move, you come and feed this king."

“……”

Is she having auditory hallucinations?

Seeing that she didn't react at all, Xiao Yan repeated: "Come and feed this king." ”

“……”

She heard it clearly this time.

She was dumbfounded and pointed at herself, "You're letting me feed you?" ”

"Yes."

"Why should I feed you?"

Xiao Yan said seriously: "It is a great blessing for you to be able to serve the king closely, don't you know how to lift." ”

I thank you, this kind of blessing loves whoever is whom, I really am not rare.

Glancing at Xiao Yan, she sat down at the table by herself, deliberately picked up a chopstick dish to show him, and sent it to her mouth in slow motion, chewing the food with satisfaction before swallowing.

She gave a thumbs up with satisfaction, "The food in the Prime Minister's Mansion is really good. ”

After coming here for so long, except for the time in the palace, this is the second time she has eaten a satisfactory meal, and this trip is not in vain.

Xiao Yan didn't eat last night, and he was already hungry and still had to watch Luo Yao eat, where had he ever been so angry in his life.

He snorted coldly, lay on his side with his back to Luo Yao, and didn't look at her.

"This sauced beef is so delicious."

"This vegetarian side dish is not bad either."

"This ......"

Luo Yao deliberately said while eating, and fanned the fragrance of the food towards Xiao Yan with her hand, deliberately coveting Xiao Yan.

Let you throw me into the ruined courtyard, and I won't be given food or drink.

I will starve you again today, so that you may know what it is like to be hungry.

Xiao Yan kept a calm face and tried her best to block her voice, but her stomach protested honestly.

Eventually, he got up and sat down at the dinner table.

"Yo! You are willing to leave the king, you don't have to wait for me to feed you? ”

He glanced at Luo Yao and ate by himself.

Luo Yao put down her chopsticks so that she could look at him for a good time, and couldn't help but mock: "I didn't expect that the high-ranking king would have today." ”

There is reincarnation in the way of heaven, and the sky spares anyone.

Deserve!

Joyfully!

"I kindly took you in, helped you heal, and gave you food, how can you repay me?" Luo Yao asked.

Xiao Yan swallowed the food in his mouth and raised his eyes coldly, "Don't think about it." ”

"If we don't mention peace and separation today, let's mention the silver."

Xiao Yan frowned and looked at her.

"I'll buy you medicine in the middle of the night, treat your wounds, take care of you, and give you food for five thousand taels at a price."

Xiao Yan snorted coldly, "Are you crazy about money?" This thing costs five thousand taels? ”

"Isn't the king's life worth five thousand taels?"

"You ......"

Glaring at Luo Yao, he refused in a deep voice, "Fifty taels at most, love or not." ”

"You're too picky, aren't you? I helped you do so much, and you only gave me fifty taels, I knew that I wouldn't help you, and let you die. Luo Yao protested dissatisfied.

Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with a touch of calculation, and suddenly looked at her and spoke, "You do this king a favor, and this king will give you as much silver as possible." ”

"I'm a very principled person, and I don't help with everything."

"Ten thousand taels."

Luo Yao immediately changed her words, "Help me with everything, what do you want me to do?" ”
