When I am connected with the prince of the same life

Chapter 98 Sister, I Want to Eat
"My lord has worked so hard this time, why don't you go out for a walk?" Cheng Muqing blinked and suggested.

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded.

"It just so happened that Lu Xiu asked you to paint." Cheng Muqing said, "Go back to the house and change your clothes, let's go."

"Okay." Lin Heng was very happy. In fact, as long as Cheng Muqing was involved, he would be very happy.

The two changed into green clothes and caps, and left the palace.

The weather in March is not so cold anymore.Peach blossoms are blooming one after another, and the market is full of vitality.Even the yelling is much louder than in winter.

Cheng Muqing tugged at his sleeves, and turned his eyes around, looking at this and that.

To be honest, she hasn't gone shopping for a long time.

"Candied haws." Lin Heng paused.

"Want to eat?" Cheng Muqing also stopped, and suddenly remembered Lin Heng's abduction before, "I seem to owe you a candied haws."

"No...you don't owe me." Lin Heng shook his head.

"Oh? Then let's go, don't eat." Cheng Muqing tugged at his sleeve.

The other party frowned together, looking aggrieved.

"My lord, do you want to eat?" Cheng Muqing looked at him enthusiastically, with a sly look in his eyes, "If you want to eat, my sister will buy it for you."

Lin Heng could feel that she was teasing him, he pouted and said reluctantly, "Sister, I want to eat."

"So cute." Cheng Muqing patted his head, smiled and bought two candied haws.

Candied haws are made of big and plump hawthorns, wrapped in a layer of syrup and sprinkled with white sesame seeds.

Bite down, the icing is crisp and sweet, and the sourness of hawthorn is quickly neutralized by sweetness and fragrance.

The aroma of white sesame, the sweetness of icing, and the sourness of hawthorn, the taste is progressive.

"How is it?" Cheng Muqing ate quickly, and half of the candied haws in his hand was left.

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded, taking small bites.

He ate very politely, as if savoring carefully.

"Heng, have you eaten before?" Cheng Muqing asked him.

Lin Heng shook his head.

It is not easy to survive in Qiguo, where did so many different foods come from?

There was a hint of distress in Cheng Muqing's eyes, "Don't worry, follow me from now on, I will definitely let you eat a lot of delicious food!" She wished she could say "a lot" a hundred times.

"Thank you." Lin Heng stood still and looked at her with affectionate eyes.

"Thanks for what?"

"Tell me to eat candied haws."

"What's there to be thankful for?" Cheng Muqing pulled his sleeves and walked to a small stall, "Boss! Here's a fried cherry."

The stall owner immediately made a copy.

"Eat." Cheng Muqing stuffed it into his arms, took him a few more steps, and bought candied chestnuts, broiled pork, cold cakes...

Just when Cheng Muqing wanted to buy some more, Lin Heng stopped him in time.

"I'm full..." Lin Heng's stomach was very full, and he still had unfinished snacks in his hand.

"Oh!" Cheng Muqing exclaimed, and hurriedly took the remaining snacks from him, "It's because I didn't estimate your stomach well."

"No……"

"Just in time, the boat is here." Cheng Muqing smiled at him with a pile of food in his arms, "Let's go in and have a rest."

"Okay." Lin Heng obediently followed behind her.

The two entered the painting workshop, and immediately a servant came to meet them.

The painting workshop is very large, carved from mahogany, with lifelike landscape animals carved on it.The attic is divided into three floors, the first floor is for receiving guests, the first floor is for treasures, and the first floor is for individual boxes.

The boy led the two of them straight up to the third floor.

Lin Heng was a little afraid of heights, and when he climbed up to the third floor, he followed Cheng Muqing closely, for fear of falling.

"His Royal Highness wait here first, and some people will come to ask for a portrait later." The servant made a "please" gesture.

Lin Heng glanced at Cheng Muqing.

"Ah Heng, you can solve this matter yourself, I won't accompany you..." Cheng Muqing said, "Is it possible?"

He knew that she wanted to exercise herself.

Yes, he did depend on her too much.

If it wasn't for him being too dependent on her and selfishly wanting to maintain the bond of life with her.When he was assassinated last time, Cheng Muqing didn't have to think about protecting himself all the time, causing himself to be injured.

Just as he was thinking, his eyes fell on her chest.

As if to look through the clothes to see the wound.

Indeed, he can no longer rely on her like this and let her worry about it all the time.

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded sullenly, turned around and walked straight into the room.

He sat in front of the desk, his eyes lost for a moment.But then, he regained his composure, looked up at Cheng Muqing who was outside the house, and smiled faintly at her.

He smiled like a spring breeze, and there was no tension in his eyes.

The disaster relief case seemed to make him grow up in an instant.

Cheng Muqing hesitated, but a warm and healing smile appeared on his face.

Lin Heng became stronger step by step, which was also what she hoped for.

Soon, someone came up and sat down opposite Lin Heng, and let Lin Heng paint the picture.

There are not many people coming and going in the painting workshop, most of them are cultivating their sentiments. They come here to find out if there are any paintings or calligraphy suitable for hanging on the wall.

Cheng Muqing saw a lot of everyone's calligraphy and famous paintings here.

I don't know... Will Lin Heng's paintings hang here in a hundred years?
There was such a trace of melancholy in her heart.

"Princess Qi."

Someone called her.

Cheng Muqing turned around and bowed to the visitor, "Boss Lu."

"I saw His Highness King Qi just now." Lu Xiu said slowly, "I feel that he has changed a lot."

Cheng Muqing didn't speak, but a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"I'm a little curious." Lu Xiu lowered his voice, "Regarding the household affairs of the current court, what happened to the disaster relief money?"

"Zhao Liangxu was greedy for ink and was arrested. After the king rescued him, he was followed by the prince's man Huangque."

"What you said is simple." Lu Xiu smiled and shook his head, "But why do I feel...that things are complicated?"

"You think, it's just you think." Cheng Muqing said lazily.

"Also, who assassinated you?" Lu Xiu put his hands back and looked down at the group of guests passing by downstairs.

"Last time, you were only affected." Cheng Muqing said, "Since you are not injured, don't worry about it." She could only comfort him like this.

"But I can still feel a deep fear." Lu Xiu lowered his eyes and sighed, "Thank you, Princess Qi."

"Why are you being polite?" Cheng Muqing was rather embarrassed.

"Princess Qi, I've been in business for many years, and I'm well-connected here. Do you have anything that you want me to spread the word?"

"Since I mentioned it, there really is." Cheng Muqing said with a smile, "His Royal Highness Qi has only Princess Qi in his heart, and this time he participated in the disaster relief silver case because... he was jealous of the crown prince. You spread the word like this."

After getting acquainted with Lu Xiu, Cheng Muqing asked Jin Xi to investigate.Finding out that Lu Xiu is a thoroughly wealthy businessman with a wide network of contacts and his own secret whistle, he really has a lot of secrets.Generally, if you want to inquire about any gossip, you can find him.

"Is that true?" Lu Xiu sneered.

"No matter what, it's the truth." Cheng Muqing was sure.

　Lu Xiu: Wang Wang Wang~ I understand, this is the truth.

　　Cheng Muqing: What fact?
