Chapter 351 Competition

Luo Qinghan stretched out his hand, touched her cheek, and found that her face was cold.

He said in a deep voice, "Don't do such stupid things again in the future."

Xiao Xixi nodded and said yes.

Qiu Yuan next to him said with a smile: "The empress's sincere affection for His Royal Highness is touching."

Xiao Xixi looked at her, and his shadow was reflected in Qing Lingling's apricot eyes.

"Eldest son."

Qiu Yuan bowed his hands to her: "Meet the concubine side concubine."

They went to rest in the warm pavilion.

The ground dragon was burning in the warm pavilion, and the temperature was very high.

As soon as the prince and Xiao Xixi entered the door, they took off the cloak and cloak on their bodies.

The first prince Luo Yechen and Zhao Meiren were already sitting in the warm pavilion. When they saw the prince coming, they immediately got up and greeted them.

The burns on Zhao Meiren's body are almost healed, but the scars are still there.

She wraps herself tightly in clothes, wears a scarf made of white rabbit fur around her neck, and hides her hands in her sleeves all the time. Even when she is drinking tea and eating snacks, she will only show a little of her fingertips, as much as possible. Hide the scars on your body.

Because the weather is cold now, it's not too abrupt for her to dress like this.

Perhaps because of the heavy trauma, her character has become much gloomier now. She doesn't like to lean in front of the prince like she used to, and she doesn't like to show her face in front of outsiders.

She usually locks herself in the house unless necessary.

After the prince sat down, the others dared to take their seats.

While pouring tea for the prince, Qiu Yuan said: "There is a palace in Panyun City, which was specially built for the emperor, but unfortunately Panyun City is too far away from Shengjing, the emperor has never been here, so that palace has been They are all empty. I have already had the palace tidy up in advance, and Yu Linwei and others brought by His Highness have also been stationed in the palace, and His Highness can stay in the palace at any time."

Luo Qinghan responded lightly: "Well, it's been hard work for you."

"It is an honor to serve the prince, and I dare not say that it is hard work."

Qiu Yuan said sincerely: "The prince has come from a long way, our palace specially set up a reception banquet for you, and we hope that His Royal Highness and the eldest prince, as well as the concubine and Zhao Meiren will be able to come and visit."

Luo Qinghan: "King Chenliu is still ill, so there is no need to do anything."

"His Royal Highness, please rest assured, this reception banquet only invited my own family, no outsiders, and the father also felt that he had to hold a reception banquet for His Highness. It was arranged as soon as possible, and the kitchen should be preparing by now. It's banquet."

Hearing what he said, Luo Qinghan stopped talking.

Time passed quickly, and the sky outside gradually darkened, but the snow still showed no signs of stopping.

The reception banquet is located in Tongxi Pavilion.

Luo Qinghan took the lead, and Xiao Xixi was placed beside him and sat at the same table with him.

The next one is the eldest prince, then Zhao Xian and Xiao Lingfeng.

Opposite them sat the three sons of the palace.

The eldest son Qiu Yuan and the second son Qiu Lei are already married, so they are sitting next to their wives.

There were also some women sitting behind them, who were either they or the prince's concubines.

Zhao Meiren's position was relatively back, she didn't move much after sitting down, and she didn't talk to the people around her.

Even if all the people present were their own family members, there were still a lot of people, and the Tongxi Pavilion was full.

One after another delicious food was brought to the table like flowing water.

Xiao Xixi was drooling with greed.

She picked up her chopsticks and tasted all the wine and vegetables on the table. After confirming that there was no problem, she added vegetables and soup to the prince.

She is invulnerable to all poisons anyway, and she can fully undertake the glorious and important task of trying dishes!

Luo Qinghan didn't eat much outside, even if Xiao Xixi brought him vegetables, he only tasted a little symbolically, and then he stopped touching those dishes.

Since King Chenliu was still ill and could not attend the banquet, his eldest son Qiu Yuan assumed the responsibility of the host.

He stood up first, picked up the wine glass, said some beautiful words to the prince, and then drank the wine in the glass.

Luo Qinghan picked up the wine glass and took a small sip.

In his capacity, being able to give such a response is already very face-saving.

After Qiu Yuan sat down, Qiu Lei left and stood up, holding a wine glass in his hand, and smiled very enthusiastically at the prince.

"I heard the name of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince before. You saved the people of the four southern counties in a rain. You really are the son of destiny. I admire you from the bottom of my heart. I will serve this glass of wine first! "

He drank all the wine in the glass in one breath, then filled himself with a second glass of wine, and continued.

"I grew up in the military camp since I was a child. If I can't do anything else, my fist and foot skills are not bad. I heard that the Prince's Royal Highness is both skilled in martial arts. If His Highness doesn't dislike it, can you have a lesson with me another day?"

Hearing this, Qiu Yuan frowned slightly, as if dissatisfied.

He whispered: "Second brother, don't talk nonsense, what is the status of the prince? How can I learn from you?"

Qiu Lei didn't look at him, he just stared at the crown prince.

At this time, Xiao Lingfeng opened his mouth and said, "If the second son wants to compete, he can compare with the last general."

Qiu Lei glanced at him, obviously ignoring him, and let out a light hum from his nose.

"If I want to compare, I have to compare with the best people. You are not qualified."

When Xiao Lingfeng heard this, he was not annoyed, but just smiled: "Young and energetic."

Qiu Lei is still looking at the prince, seeing him like this, if the prince does not give an answer, he will not give up tonight.

Qiu Yuan said warmly: "His Royal Highness don't want to have the same knowledge as him. He has been like this since he was a child. He is arrogant and spoiled by his father, but his heart is not bad. I hope His Highness will not take his nonsense to heart. ."

Qiu Lei frowned, very unconvinced.

"This is a matter between me and the prince, it's not your turn to intervene."

Qiu Yuan still looked helpless, looking really like a gentle and generous brother.

Qiu Lei turned to look at the prince and asked earnestly.

"Can Your Highness have a match with me?"

Luo Qinghan said indifferently: "Practicing martial arts alone is to strengthen the body, not to fight fiercely."

This is a disguised rejection of Qiu Lei.

Qiu Lei's face was disappointed, and he was still a little resentful in his heart.

Then he heard the prince speak again.

"If you really want to compete with Gu, Gu can compare with you."

Qiu Lei's eyes lit up: "What does Your Highness want to compare?"

He doesn't really care about comparisons, he just wants to prove to everyone that he can beat the prince!

If he can defeat the prince, then his strength will be beyond doubt, and inheriting the throne will become a logical thing, and others will never dare to say a word.

Luo Qinghan didn't answer and asked: "Besides martial arts, what are you good at?"
