The Playful Queen: The Evil King's Favorite

Chapter 26 Return to the Imperial City

Shaowang Mansion

Xiao Zao stood outside the door with a booklet in his hand, waiting for Bei Mingshao to laugh, and hurried forward when she saw her come out.

"Your Highness, this is a gift list for His Majesty." Xiao Zao handed over the booklet, wanting her to read it.

Beiming looked at the brochure handed over by Xiaozao silently with a smile, and said softly: "Just read it."

"Your Highness, what's the matter?" After all, Xiaozao has followed her for many years, and she knows everything by tacit understanding.

"It's okay." Bei Mingshao smiled back and smiled. Although this smile was beautiful, it was a little less happy.

Xiao Zao saw that she didn't say anything, and didn't ask questions, so she straightened her expression and said seriously: "Your Highness, there are still three days until the ninth day, if you want to meet with His Majesty, you have to go to the imperial city ahead of time."

"So you're saying that you have to go to Xihuang from Lingzhou to pass through the imperial city?" Beiming Shaoxiao probably understood the route.

"Indeed." Xiaozao nodded. After all, Lingzhou is quite remote, and the route to the outskirts is to go directly to the imperial city, or to cross the thousand-zhang snow-capped mountains outside Lingzhou city.

Bei Ming smiled and thought about it, sooner or later he would have to go back and face it, so he also said: "Then after noon today, let's set off for the imperial city!"

"Does Your Highness need your subordinates to prepare anything else?" Xiao Zao asked aloud.

Bei Ming Shaoxiao thought about it carefully, and thought: "Prepare four sets of decent men's clothes to take to Gong Xi Fa Cai."

She didn't want to take these four people and wear all black clothes.

"Yes." Xiaozao responded and left.

Beiming Shaoxiao's star-like dazzling eyes darkened a bit, but he was filled with emotions. The mention of the imperial city reminded him of his father, and he didn't know how he was doing in Donglie. I don't know what happened.

Thinking of these, thousands of emotions welled up in his heart, he walked casually in boredom, and when he stepped into the front hall, he saw Miaofeng ordering the group of maids.

"As soon as possible, load the carriage, and send enough manpower, let's go!"

"Yes." The waitress said, leaving through the back door.

Bei Ming walked over with a smile and asked curiously, "Miaofeng, what are you doing?"

"Your Highness." Miaofeng clasped her fists, "Your Majesty will load all the gifts into the carriage, and wait for His Highness to check and set off."

When Beiming heard this, Shaoxiao raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "You and Xiaozao are like my little padded jackets, so caring."

These two things have been taken care of for myself, which is even more efficient than a nanny. They have thought about things that I haven't thought about yet, and they are ready, which is very pleasantly surprised.

When Miaofeng heard this, she smiled lightly: "This is the job of the subordinates, and the subordinates and Xiao Zao are supposed to serve His Highness."

"Thank you, comrades, for your hard work." Beiming Shaoxiao patted her on the shoulder, thanked her sincerely, and said another sentence in a strange manner.

Miaofeng froze for a moment but was a little at a loss, she pursed her lips but said nothing, she was not good at words.

Beiming Shaoxiao thought for a while, turned around and asked: "By the way, take care of the two people Miaofeng brought back today. I'll be away for a few days. Thank you for me. If others have any requests as satisfying as possible."

"Your Highness, please rest assured." Miao Feng responded.

Just at this moment before Beiming Shaoxiao answered, a strong wind blew past, and a black-clothed man covered in evil spirits appeared in front of his eyes. His deep eyes looked at Beiming Shaoxiao full of anger, and after a disdainful glance, he went back. Ready to turn around and leave.

Such an arrogant person, who else could there be but her master, Situ Xie?
Bei Mingshao smiled openly, and shouted: "The evil old man came and left like this?"

Situ Xie swayed, turned to stare at her, and snorted, "Didn't you say you were poisoned, you stinky girl? My lord came here to see if you were poisoned to death."

"Haha... I've let you down, I'm fine." Bei Mingshao smiled and said.

"Smelly girl, I heard that you are going back to the imperial city? Will you come back to Lingzhou again?" Situ Xie stood with his hands behind his back, looking at her without squinting, waiting for her answer.

In fact, he knew early in the morning that she was not poisoned to deceive him, but when he heard that his little apprentice was leaving Lingzhou, he went out to meet her, which was considered a farewell.

"Lingzhou City is my home, how can I not go back, and besides, my young prince's mansion is so leisurely, why should I go to the muddy water of a bunch of people in the palace." Bei Mingshao smiled and shook his sleeves, avoiding It looks like it's not as good as it is.

Miaofeng beside her lowered her eyelashes thoughtfully. Regarding His Highness's words, she felt that even if His Highness didn't want to fight for anything, there would be someone who would stare at His Highness.

Situ Xie raised his chin and said proudly, "Haha~ This is just like my apprentice of Situ Xie."

"That's necessary. I will definitely practice the fireworks well in the few days after I leave Lingzhou City. Remember to give me the ninth layer of the Ming Jue when I am done!" Beiming Shaoxiao smiled and took Situ evil arm.

"Boom!" Situ Xie knocked on her forehead, and scolded, "How many times have you said that? You can't rush for success in practicing kung fu."

"Yes yes yes!" Bei Ming Shaoxiao covered his forehead and nodded in agreement.

No matter how she said it, she wanted to save some face for Situ Xie. It's not good to be too dead, and it's no big deal to follow his old man's wishes occasionally.

Situ Xie nodded in satisfaction, turned around, and a gust of wind blew by. There was no sign of Situ Xie, and he said in the distance: "Go early and return early."

Bei Ming smiled and returned with cupped fists: "I obey!"

Beiming smiled and looked at Anlan, feeling deeply in his heart, it is natural to go early and return early, but this time out of Lingzhou City, the struggle for imperial power in the imperial capital is something that it is difficult for him not to step in. In the past few years, Beifeng has never Li Huang Tai Daughter, the empress's mind also knows a few meanings, but she is really not interested.

"Prepare meals." Don't think about it anymore, fill your stomach.

"Yes." Miaofeng responded and went to the dining room.

At noon, when the scorching sun was in the sky, there was a high-end carriage at the front entrance of the Young Prince's Mansion. It was actually three small vehicles for transporting gifts, and more than 50 guards were waiting.

As soon as Beiming Shaoxiao went out, he saw that Gong Xifacai was not wearing the black clothes, but he joked and said, "Yo? You four finally look like human beings, eh! The clothes are not bad, Xiaozao arranged them very well." Touching his chin, he turned his head and admired Miaofeng behind him.

"Your Highness has given you too much credit, it's the job of your subordinates." Xiaozao's non-inviting appearance made Beiming laugh a little.

"Okay, then the king is leaving." Beiming patted the shoulders of Miaofeng and Xiaozao with a smile, and explained: "The king is not in the mansion for a few days, and the accounts of Xiaozao's shops still need to be counted." , Miaofeng, you should take more care of the security practices in the mansion."

"Your subordinate obeys!" The two replied in unison.

"Yeah." Beiming Shaoxiao retracted his eyes, turned around and stepped on the carriage.

"Set off."

"Respectfully send off the prince!" The whole house went up and down to see off.

A group of convoys slowly left the gate of the Young Prince's Mansion and rushed to the imperial city, getting further and further away against the fiery red sun.

After a while, Bei Ming Shaoxiao was really bumped by the carriage. This car really felt more bumpy than a tractor.

"Stop, stop, stop!" The sister who sits on the TMD thing wants to sing that sentence: Let's shake, shake, shake~

"Hoo." The driver Xi pulled the carriage and asked, "Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"The king wants to ride a horse, Xiao Caicai, come in and take the carriage." Before Cai agreed, Beiming Shaoxiao directly flashed his figure onto Cai's horse like the wind.

Cai's body froze, His Highness was so close to him, for some reason his face became very hot, he felt a hot potato behind him, he jumped off the horse, and hurried into the carriage.

Beiming Shaoxiao laughed at Guan Cai, and flicked the reins, "Drive!"

"Tap-tat-tat~" The sound of horseshoes rang in my ears, endlessly.

Beiming Shaoxiao, who was riding a horse, also looked unhappy. Isn't this saddle too hard?Thanks to those people riding so happy?Don't be afraid of broken eggs and chrysanthemums!
"Oh!" Forget it, she didn't bother to change it again.

She didn't know how far she had traveled, but she couldn't help asking the guard, "How far is it?"

"If you go back to the lord, you will soon arrive in Beizhen." The female guard replied.

"Beizhen?" Beiming smirked. I really didn't know about these places. It's okay for me to recite five autonomous regions and one municipality in China's 36 provinces.

"My lord, Beizhen is a border town of the imperial city." The female guard replied again.

"Okay, then go to the town and find an inn to rest first, and enter the imperial city tomorrow." Bei Mingshao smiled and ordered with a rather tired look.

"Yes." The female guard clasped her fists.

When the group entered the town, they found a small inn for dinner. After the meal, Beiming smiled and went to sleep in the room.

Next to her room is the room of the four of Gong Xifa Cai, the rhythm of professional bodyguards.

The inn is lit by dim candle light, surrounded by ordinary wooden tables and wooden beds, dull curtains and chipped teacups, which made Bei Ming Shaoxiao feel bad, because she has a cleanliness habit.

"Hey! Is this quilt clean?" If many people have slept on it, how many bacteria there must be.

Beiming Shaoxiao looked up at the ceiling silently, sat at the table for a few seconds, looked at the bed and the environment, and fell asleep instantly.

Sighing resignedly, he was about to go to bed and then thought about the unhygienic bacteria or something, his scalp was numb, he turned around and opened the door and went out.

The downstairs of the inn was clean, the shopkeeper crawled on the counter and dozed off, the child crawled on the table in a drowsy state, Bei Ming laughed less because he was bored, so he walked to the opposite of the table of the second child and sat down.

The drowsy waiter in the shop seemed to be sensitive to hearing a sound, so he opened his eyes immediately, saw that it was Bei Ming who smiled less, and asked with a smile: "Is the guest officer still awake so late?"

"Can't sleep." Beiming Shaoxiao put one hand on the table and propped his chin on the table to look at Xiao Er.

"The little one will just talk to the guest officer to relieve boredom." Xiaoer smiled honestly.

Beiming Shaoxiao raised his eyes and looked at her lazily, and replied, "Look at how young you are, how come you make money here day and night."

This little girl is handsome, with a pair of white hands covered with calluses from doing things.

Xiao Er was stunned for a while.

Beiming Shaoxiao suddenly felt that he was asking inappropriately, and said, "I didn't mean to ask about your personal affairs, don't mind..."

"It's nothing, sir, there's nothing to hide about this matter! No one in this town or outside the town knows that I'm a solitary person with a dead family." Xiaoer smiled lightly on his face.

But Beiming Shaoxiao could feel the sadness in her eyes, so he didn't know how to comfort her.

Xiao Er blinked his eyes, vented his emotions slowly, raised his eyes and looked out of the dark window, and said in a flat tone: "My family was originally an iron business in the imperial capital. My father and Mr. Chen have nothing to do with each other. That day Master Chen came to the door and asked my father to secretly make weapons for him, but my father did not agree, that Master Chen became murderous, saying that anyone who knew about it would die, he killed me all over the house, and set fire to the crime scene. I hid in the fake cave, and I saw a jade pendant with magic characters hanging on the waist of those men in black."

"Is the magic word related to the Devil's Cult? Is the Master Chen you're talking about Chen Qian?" If she remembers correctly, the number one female officer next to Wen Changyun is Chen Qian.

Xiao Er replied: "That's right, that courtier. I have checked the jade pendants of the Devil's Cult, and they are all different. That jade pendant has the imprint of plum blossoms on it."

"You're careful." Bei Ming smiled lightly. Fortunately, he had nothing to do with the Devil's Cult, but he didn't seem to have seen the Plum Blossom Magic Character Token before.

"How can the blood feud be appeased, but there is nothing I can do, now that the courtier is in charge..." Xiao Er's eyes darkened as he spoke.

"Believe it or not, evil will be rewarded with evil, but after a while, she, Chen Qian, will definitely have her retribution." Bei Mingshao said with a smile that was not a smile, and stood up and patted Xiaoer on the shoulder.

"I hope! Thank you, guest officer." Xiaoer is relatively simple and honest, and he is a little timid but a little ambitious.
