Hearing the Crown Prince's call, Hui Mo rushed over like a cheerful sparrow and said expectantly, "Master, are you calling me back to serve you? I don't need to follow Lady Ning anymore, right?"
Xia Hou Qing followed the sound of the birds and walked to the front of the flower and bird rack. He grabbed a handful of bird food and stretched out his hand. Two tender yellow sparrows flew over and used their tender red beaks to peck and play in his palm. Xiahou Qing felt the soft life in his palm and said faintly, "Continue to follow her. You don't need to go back until this case is over. Also, remind her to take a look at Phoenix Terrace when she has time."
Hearing this, Hui Mo's incomparably cheerful face suddenly collapsed. He was indescribably sad and miserable.
"Do you really want me to go? Can I not go? Young Mistress Ning is so intelligent, and Miss Lian Qiao by her side is also very clever. I think they will be able to handle it. I don't think I need to add feet to a snake. "
He still wanted to struggle, but suddenly he found that his Crown Prince slightly frowned. His heart was alarmed. He quickly raised his hand and gently patted his mouth and respectfully said, "Master, I understand."
After that, he turned around and continued to complete the task. When he was about to step out of the door, he heard Xiahou Qing's low voice again.
"Try not to let her die easily."
Hui Mo respectfully said, "Yes." Then he walked out.
Xiahou Qing was the only person left in the large hall. It was spacious, bright, and quiet like water. Only the tiny creature in his palm was still playing and jumping about, oblivious to everything.
Xiahou Qing remembered that under his five fingers, the woman's neck didn't seem to be tougher than the sparrow in his hand.
It might be a pity if she died easily.
In the early morning, Prince Ke's mansion was particularly quiet. No one dared to make a sound. After the housekeeper of the mansion served Ning Shu tea, he bowed his head and waited aside. Ning Shu quietly ate the snacks and tea as breakfast.
Hui Mo quietly stuffed the snacks into his cherry mouth and sighed. When will this day come to an end?
It wasn't until a quarter past nine that the most important prince in the capital lazily got up. With him, the entire palace immediately came to life. More than ten servant girls served Xiao Minglan like a myriad of stars surrounding the moon. One of them went to the main seat and laid down. Another picked up a cup of tea leaves and a cup of top-grade sparrow tongue for him to rinse his mouth. Another stood behind him and massaged his head to wake him up. The rest of the servants carried basins of water, hot towels, and dozens of dishes. They lined up in an orderly manner and the queue stretched all the way out of the house.
After he used a hot towel, he finally woke up completely. He glanced at Ning Shu and said, "Isn't this the little girl from the Ning Family? Qin Ji has already returned to the pleasure boat. Why are you looking for this prince?"
Ning Shu had long heard that this master had a bad temper when he woke up. She smiled and apologized, "It's really rude of me to visit your residence, but I'm investigating a person who is closely related to the Cloud Leaf case, so I can only come and disturb you."
"Who is it?"
"Niinu. Yesterday, I heard the Seventh Prince mention that he had seen you in your residence, so I wanted to ask you to recall carefully. Perhaps you can really remember something. "
Xiao Minglan smiled and looked at her playfully, "Aren't you afraid that this case is related to me?"
"I remember that when I entered the palace when I was five years old, I happened to see the Sixth Prince being accused of stealing the hairpin. I didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and raised an objection, causing Concubine Qi to be unhappy. It was you who stood out and used children's words to smooth things over for me and saved me from punishment. Therefore, I respect you and believe you. "
In that life, Xiao Minglan was an idle and stubborn prince until his death. Whether it was the struggle in the imperial court or the secret affairs of the previous dynasty represented by Empress Zhou, he didn't care about them. Setting up such a trap was meaningless to him.
Xiao Minglan smiled and was very happy, "I happened to pass by at that time, but I thought that you were very interesting and joined in the fun. You actually remembered it until now. Forget it, I have nothing to do anyway so I'll help you. "
He waved his sleeves to summon the housekeeper and listened to the housekeeper whisper a few words.
Not long after, Xiao Minglan slowly recalled, "Oh, so the Niinu you were talking about is that girl. There was indeed such a person in my residence. Two years ago, to celebrate the old concubine's birthday, I bought a singing troupe and found that there was a little girl in the troupe who sang very well. At that time, I wanted to make someone happy, so I asked her to teach me how to sing. That girl worked very hard and sang until her voice was out. After a long time, I forgot her name. I only remember that there was such a person. "
Later on, there was the anecdote of Prince Ke singing for three days and three nights at the flower pavilion, forcing the red door to open.
