Ninth Prince glanced at her in his heart. This girl clearly had something to request of him.

So this was a gift.

You can just gift it to me as you wish. Why are you still talking about it so openly?

Are you sure this gift wouldn't kill you?

But in the end, the Ninth Prince still nodded his head and said, "Then this king thanks wangfei for her good will."

"No need, no need..."

Xiao Ting was just about to continue speaking when the Ninth Prince said this, "The people who have come to give this duke a present in the past are all people who have requests from this king and none of them are sincere."

His starry eyes looked as if they were on high alert, and he said those words very seriously, but Xiao Ting almost choked him to death with his words.

However, how thick her skin was, in the end, when two hundred and fifty percent of her strength came out, she directly said, "I also have something to request of Your Highness!" Then he quickly promised, "But I'm really sincere."

Otherwise, who would give you such a precious item? She wasn't stupid to give you so much.

Just how much money was this worth!?

The corners of Ninth Prince's mouth lifted slightly. "Oh, then I think it's better for wangfei to take the thing back!"

This time, Xiao Ting's eyes became anxious, she grabbed the jade bottles on the table and said: These are all good things, they are all valuable, you really don't want them!

"Those are all a woman's accessories. What is This King here for?" The Ninth Prince replied benevolently.

Xiao Ting became even more anxious, "It's not like I'm letting you use it, you can use it to sell. Hong Shao said that these things are already worth a lot of money."

This time, Ninth Prince understood that he had married a money grubber.

In the eyes of others, giving away things was considered a kind intention, but in her eyes, it was just money.

"This King does not lack money."

The Ninth Prince took something to sell in exchange for money. If others knew about this, how could he save his face?

Besides, was he really short of money?

Xiao Ting was dumbstruck, "You don't lack money, why didn't you say so earlier?

She thought he was poor and wanted to bribe him.

Seeing Xiao Ting quickly wrap up those things and then turn to leave, the Ninth Prince did not hold back at all.

He was a bit suspicious. Had he guessed wrongly? Was his little wangfei thinking that he was very poor and had come to help him?

However, in the next moment, he stopped thinking about this.

It was only when Xiao Ting had just walked to the door, did she remember that she had already taken one step forward. Aiya, she had something to request of Ninth Prince, so how could she take the thing away?

Thus, she quietly retracted her foot, and retreated step by step. When she arrived in front of the Ninth Prince, she lowered her head and quickly put the things back in place.

He then raised his head, revealing a smile that he thought was the sweetest, but was actually the most horrifying smile. He looked at Ninth Prince, imitating his master's manner of speech, and spoke with a bewitching tone: "Your highness, this is for you, please accept it."

Ninth Prince laughed involuntarily, he was truly amused.

"Didn't the princess already take him away?"

Xiao Ting scolded him in his heart for not having the grace to do so, but in the end, she still said: "How can I take back what I gave out? As he spoke, he pushed his backpack forward, causing Ninth Prince to reach out to block him, only then did he not fall into his arms.

"The wangfei isn't here just to see This King be poor and come to help this king, right?"

Seeing that Xiao Ting's acting was on the verge of collapsing, Ninth Prince took the initiative to speak.

Xiao Ting's eyes flashed, she took a few steps closer, and laughed even more sweetly.

It was just that this time he was more sincere.

Her eyes were sparkling, and her eyelashes were fluttering as she spoke.

"Chenqie has a small matter that requires Your Highness's help."

Without waiting for Ninth Prince to ask, she explained everything at once.

The Ninth Prince was confused, just how many unorganized children were there to say such words?

With her, if she still wanted to investigate the case, it would be great if she didn't help.

He wanted to see how many layers she had, and he even wrote a note for her to give to her imperial brother.

"Are you saying that the Li mama beside the Empress planted a corpse worm inside Tao Zhi's corpse, raised it for many years, and then, after many years, threw it into the lake yesterday, in order to scare the Imperial Consort Xiao?"

Xiao Ting was dumbstruck, was this what she meant by saying those words in a quarter of an hour?

Eh, that's what she meant, but, was that all it meant?

"Yes."

Ninth Prince was speechless, "Are you sure it was Li mama who did it?"

Xiao Ting was startled, but soon shook her head.

Ninth Prince stood up and walked to her side with both hands behind his back, looking down at her condescendingly. "So, you openly asked this king to speak to the Emperor on your behalf, and in the end you only found out about it?"

Xiao Ting retracted her head, and did not dare to look at him.

"Who was it that boldly said yesterday that they would help Imperial Concubine investigate and find out the truth!?"

Xiao Ting continued to shrink her neck.

"Who put the body in the Heart Lake, and you still haven't found it?"

"You don't even know who went to bury Tao Zhi back then?"

After asking a few questions in a row, Xiao Ting finally exploded out, "I'm not an immortal, I know everything, do I still need to quietly ask for your help?"

"Hmph, if I don't help, then I won't. What's so amazing about that?" After Xiao Ting finished speaking, she raised her hand and the bundle was carried on her back once more.

And then, he left in big strides, extremely proud and arrogant.

At the window, Butler Mu and a certain hidden guard continued to write down small books.

"The emperor is filial, and on the twelfth day of the seventh month of the sixth year, the prince smiles once and smiles twice. He will exchange blows with the princess and for the time being, the prince wins."

The guard's face was covered in tears. Could he not call him next time?

Hong Shao saw that her master had carried the backpack back and was fuming. She didn't even need to ask to know what was going on.

"Princess, you're back so soon." Hong Shao took the bag and asked her curiously, unable to hide her smile.

Xiao Ting walked into the house in a huff, kicked off her shoes, and threw herself onto the soft couch, muttering to herself, "I begged him so softly, and she even made fun of me. Hmph, what's so special about that?"

"You're still saying that I didn't do anything and that if you have the ability, don't blame me for it in the future. Otherwise, hmph..."

Hong Shao smiled as she advised: "Don't be angry, you should be angry if you want to be angry, Your Highness."

"What?" Why should he be angry? "I still don't see it as something I gave him."

As he said this, he kicked the package again. He looked extremely proud and huffy.

The Hong Shao hastily replied, "Royal Concubine, your intentions are good, but why would you care about it when you are giving it to me?"

"Then let me ask you, is all this valuable? You said it's worth a lot! " Xiao Ting did not understand.

The Hong Shao was speechless, "So, what exactly did you tell the Prince?"

Xiao Ting said what happened just now while she was still angry.

When the Hong Shao heard this, she remained silent for a long time.

Her master was becoming more and more …

But reason with her? Forget it.

If I didn't hear from the Zhaohua that he's very powerful, I wouldn't even beg him!

Hong Shao suddenly said, "Princess, didn't the Prince not reject you?"

When Xiao Ting thought about it, it was true. Ninth Prince had only mocked her, she did not say that she would not help her.

"Eh, I was too rash!" As a result, the late Xiao Ting discovered that the other party had not even said anything, and she had already cut off her escape route.

"Princess, why don't we try another present?" The Hong Shao advised her.

Xiao Ting bit her lips, thought for a long time, and in the end, felt discouraged, "If she doesn't even want the money, then what can I give him?"

The master and servant were in the house racking their brains, thinking, when Xiao Xin's voice came in from outside.

"Is elder sister here?"

Hearing that, Xiao Ting's spirits were immediately raised.

"Sister, are you busy?"

"No!" Xiao Ting gestured for Xiao Xin to come over, "Come, come, little darling, come over here and let Big Sis see the wound on your head."

Xiao Xin was a little embarrassed, he walked to Xiao Ting and lowered his head for her to see, and said: "I will be more careful next time, I will not fall again."

"Don't worry, it's normal for a boy to fall and hit him. Only when he grows up will he be healthy." Xiao Ting said casually.

By the side, Hong Shao had already become accustomed to it, but Lv You felt that her master was becoming more and more unsuitable.

"Princess, what happened to you?" Lv You glared at Hong Shao and picked up the black bag on the floor, opened it to look, and then placed it back into the cabinet.

Xiao Ting's shoes were also picked up and put back on the soft couch.

Hong Shao stuck out her tongue, she had not gotten the chance to clean up yet!

The two girls by Xiao Ting's side, Hong Shao's personality was more lively, and her way of doing things was also quite hot-tempered.

Lv You was calm and collected, she had the imposing aura of a big maid. The original owner really valued her, so she basically took care of all the things in the Glass Pavilion.

This was because the original owner often ran outside.

On the other hand, Xiao Ting liked to lie down in the mansion and be a worm. She was afraid that she wouldn't be able to stand Lv You's lecture, so she was sent to Xiao Xin's side.

Seeing Lv You's gaze on her, Xiao Ting and Hong Shao looked at each other, both seeing the guilt in each other's eyes.

Finally, the Hong Shao told Lv You everything that had happened.

Hearing that, Lv You froze on the spot, but in the end, she still gave her master an idea.

"Wangfei, why don't you weave a brocade handkerchief and give it to your highness?"

Xiao Ting: "He doesn't even want those, will he like this? "How much is it worth?"

Two maidservants, "..."

Her family's girls weren't like this before, but they treated money like dirt.

Besides, how could there be a gift from a husband and wife that could be directly measured with money!

Lv You decided, "I'll just send you the embroidered handkerchief, Your Highness will definitely like it." There was another sentence that she did not mention. Even if she did not like it, it was still better than that pile of things.

I don't know how they came up with this idea, but if they were to take a pile of ornaments and a woman's headdress to give to the prince, it would be strange if the prince liked it.

"Alright!" In the end, Xiao Ting reluctantly accepted it, then turned and laid on the soft couch, and started to tease Xiao Xin.

"Esteemed wangfei, what kind of patterns would you like to embroider?"

Hong Shao quickly showed the embroidery to Xiao Ting. Xiao Ting looked at it seriously, and just when the two servant girls thought that she would point it out, she opened her mouth.

"Why is it so complicated? When will it be finished?"

Lv You: "Esteemed wangfei, it'll be fine in three or four days."

Xiao Ting immediately jumped up, "What, three to four days? "After it's been so long, I don't need it anymore."

"Since you haven't learned it before, the embroidery process is naturally slow." Hong Shao chimed in.

"Ah?" Aren't you guys embroidering? "Why me?"

Hong Shao Lv You wanted to faint. Did the wangfei want them to embroider the personal items that she gifted to the Duke?

Only her master could think of this.
