Lu Fengyi has another mission?
Xie Xi's eyes flashed, and he took Lu Fengyi's hand and led her to the study: "It's Gu's fault. Gu was busy dealing with things for a while, which made you feel wronged."
"Mu Qing, ask the kitchen to prepare some food and send it over."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Qing suddenly appeared at the door of the study.
Mu Qing lowered his head and responded: "Yes, Your Highness."
Mu Qing turned around and strode away.
Lu Xiaoxiao didn't really feel aggrieved.
Now that she heard His Highness admitting his mistake, her little head couldn't turn around, and she looked at His Highness the Crown Prince with even more admiration.
[What kind of peerless good man is Your Highness? He actually knows how to admit his mistakes! ? 】
[Your Highness is so good. How can I bear to blame His Highness? 】
[Of course I must forgive Your Highness! 】
"Now that I see His Highness, I no longer feel aggrieved."
Lu Xiaoxiao pretended to be shy and looked away, "But Your Highness, the study is such an important place, can I really let my concubine enter?"
Xie Xi: "Yes."
Those important letters were not in the study. Xie Xi had already placed them in another more hidden and safer place.
His study was not without any important secrets.
Lu Xiaoxiao followed His Royal Highness into the study.
After entering, Lu Xiaoxiao subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced around. The arrangement in the study was extremely clean and tidy. Occupying the center of the study was a round table and several stools.
In addition to some valuable vases and paintings placed on both sides, there are six rows of bookshelves filled with books behind the desk.
[It seems that His Highness likes to read books. There are so many books. I wonder if there are any maps of Li country in them. 】
[I don’t know how far Jiangnan is from Shengjing. 】
Why did Lu Fengyi suddenly mention Jiangnan?
Could it be that she wants to go to Jiangnan?
Or does this mission have something to do with Jiangnan?
Xie Xi suppressed the doubts in her heart, took Lu Fengyi's hand, led her to sit down at the round table, opened the food box, took out the pastries placed inside one by one, and placed them on the table.
When Lu Xiaoxiao came to his senses, he saw the pastries placed on the table one by one.
[Your Highness is so gentle, I can’t stand it! 】
[I misunderstood Your Highness this morning! ! ! 】
Xie Xi frowned without any trace. What did Lu Fengyi misunderstand about him again?
He originally wanted to hear what the misunderstanding was in Lu Fengyi's mind, but she stopped thinking about it.
Xie Xi felt helpless and could only slowly test Lu Fengyi again.
I wonder what mission Lu Fengyi mentioned in his mind?
Now in Xie Xi's eyes, tasks are points, and points are the antidote to cold poison.
In order to completely eliminate the cold poison, he must complete the task as soon as possible for Lu Fengyi no matter what.
Xie Xi lowered his eyes, put away the thoughts in his eyes, and raised his eyes to look at Lu Fengyi, but saw that she was still staring at the pastries on the table in a daze. He couldn't help but chuckle: "Lu Fengyi, why are you just looking at it and not eating it?"
"I brought this specially to His Highness. If I don't want to eat it, I just don't know if Your Highness likes it or not."
In fact, Lu Xiaoxiao was not hungry.
Lu Xiaoxiao was thinking about how to mention the matters in the court to His Highness.
[If I directly ask His Highness whether he received a secret message from Jiangnan during the morning court today...]
[No, no, if I really say that, Your Highness will definitely misunderstand that I am here to inquire about information...]
[But this time the mission is about Jiangnan’s bribery case. How should I ask so that it doesn’t look like I’m doing it on purpose? 】
Hearing the confusion in Lu Fengyi's heart, Xie Xi almost couldn't help but ask directly.
Unfortunately not.
Mr. Huaijun had tried it before, and he could not express his feelings when it came to Lu Fengyi.
Xie Xi took a deep breath, picked up a small piece of plum blossom cake and took a bite. It was a bit sweet and could barely be eaten.
Xie Xi rarely eats pastries. Originally, there was no cook who was good at making pastries in the prince's palace. It was after Concubine Xiao and Zhang Liangyuan entered the palace that Xie Xi brought them back from the palace.
Xie Xi reluctantly swallowed it and then said: "Guzi likes the cakes that Lu Fengyi brought here personally."
Lu Xiaoxiao: "As long as Your Highness likes it."
[I have a headache, how should I speak! 】
Xie Xi lowered his head and took a sip of tea with a calm expression, and waited patiently for Lu Fengyi to speak.
Little Thief Lu glanced at His Highness.
Seeing that His Highness the Crown Prince's face was gentle and did not look like he would get angry, Lu Xiaoxiao felt anxious many times in his heart, and finally he bit the bullet and asked: "I heard that His Highness came to the palace to attend the morning court today, do you have anything interesting to say?" Let me listen to it?"
[Let’s test it first. I don’t know if His Highness will say it. 】
Lu Xiaoxiao was a little nervous.
Hearing this, Xie Xi pondered for a moment: "Lu Fengyi wants to hear what happened in the court?"
Lu Xiaoxiao was stunned by His Highness the Crown Prince's straight shot.
But the words had already been said, and Lu Xiaoxiao couldn't refute. She looked at His Royal Highness eagerly, her heartbeat racing with nervousness: "Your Highness, can you tell me?"
"Everything in the court is confidential, I..."
【Your Highness! ! Don't refuse me, I really want to hear it! 】
Hearing Lu Fengyi's almost screaming heart, Xie Xi rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. He looked down at Lu Fengyi, whose eyes were reddish, and sighed in his heart: "You can talk about it, but Lu Fengyi can't spread this matter. You can do it." ?”
Lu Xiaoxiao was suddenly stunned.
After reacting, Lu Xiaoxiao suppressed the excitement in his heart: "It can be done!"
"Your Highness, I can guarantee that I won't say a word to anyone else!"
Xie Xi: ...But you will say it in your heart.
"This morning, a secret letter came from Jiangnan."
[Sure enough, the plot is advanced! 】
Xie Xi glanced at Lu Fengyi, and then continued: "The officials who took office in Jiangnan protected each other, increased taxes, oppressed the people, and the people's grievances had nowhere to redress..."
"My father wanted to send someone to Jiangnan to handle the matter, but no one in the court dared to recommend himself."
"What about Your Highness?"
Lu Xiaoxiao asked subconsciously.
[Since no one has recommended themselves to handle the Jiangnan bribery case, I’d better persuade His Highness to take the case as soon as possible. Otherwise, when the Emperor hands over the Jiangnan matter to the fourth prince, then my mission will really fail! 】
[I don’t know what happened to the system. Knowing that Jiangnan is so dangerous, why do you have to ask me to persuade Your Highness to go to Jiangnan to resolve the matter? 】
[You also want me to accompany you all the way to protect His Highness! I wonder if His Highness will take me with him! 】
[Fortunately, this mission can reward two hundred points, which barely gives me some comfort. If I collect more points, I can redeem the antidote for His Highness! 】
Xie Xi understood.
It turns out that Lu Fengyi's mission this time is to ask her to convince him to go to Jiangnan to solve the Jiangnan bribery case.
Xie Xi pursed her lips and asked, "Lu Fengyi wants me to recommend myself?"
