Although Baoqin remembers concubine Xiao, she knows very well that the emperor can't live a lifetime for concubine Xiao. He must have other women.

But she didn't expect that the emperor would dote on a woman similar to concubine Xiao!

What does the emperor mean?

Because concubine Xiao is gone, do you want to find a substitute for concubine Xiao?

Baoqin doesn't think it's an expression of affection at all. She just feels diaphragmatic and angry.

Concubine Xiao is concubine Xiao. She is a unique existence. No one in the world can replace her!

If the emperor really likes her, he should respect her.

Instead of looking for such a substitute to replace her!

Baoqin clenched her hands into fists, stared at the woman in front of her, and almost burst out fire in her eyes.

Xiao Xi was stunned by her hostile eyes.

In Xiao Xi's impression, Baoqin has always been lively and lovely. Even if she nags sometimes, the starting point is for her good.

This was the first time she had seen Baoqin with such a look of resentment.

Father Chang hurried forward and blocked the sight of the Baoqin with his body. He arched his hand at the imperial concubine and said with a smile.

"You can let Baoqin do whatever your mother wants in the future. Baoqin is very quick and smart. She will share her worries in the future."

Xiao Xixi: "well, thank you for coming here."

Duke Chang: "it's all ordered by the emperor. The servant just helps run errands."

When he left, he winked at Baoqin and motioned her to restrain her emotions.

As soon as father-in-law Chang left, Xiao Xi stood up and ran to play the Baoqin.

"Baoqin, you..."

Baoqin quickly withdrew her hand.

She stepped back two steps, distanced herself from each other, then knelt down again and bowed her head.

"Slaves and maidservants are humble bodies. Don't touch them, madam, so as not to dirty your hands."

The attitude seems respectful, but in fact it is alienated and indifferent.

Xiao Xi scratched his head: "Baoqin, can't you recognize me?"

Baoqin still bowed her head: "the Maiden's status is noble. How dare you not recognize her?"

She originally wanted to hibernate in the imperial concubine, but now she just wanted to leave here quickly.

She doesn't want to see a substitute hanging around all day.

I don't want to see a substitute occupy everything that should belong to concubine Xiao.

Xiao Xixi: "do you remember milk tea? Do you remember pearl pudding and blood glutinous rice? Roast duck, bamboo tube rice, spicy hot pot, boiled fish, Buddha jumping over the wall, sweet scented osmanthus sugar Ciba“

She couldn't help swallowing.

She insisted that she was hungry.

Baoqin listened to the familiar dish names and felt an inexplicable touch in her heart.

She looked up at each other.

Xiao Xi squatted down with her skirt and kept a straight look with her.

"Do you remember the chickens, ducks, pigs and geese we raised in the backyard? Do you remember the fish and lotus roots in the pond? And the vegetable garden and grape rack. Although those are gone, you should not forget them."

Baoqin's eyes widened and looked at her incredulously.

"Of course I remember! But how did you know this? Did your majesty tell you this? Did he even tell you this?"

Xiao Xixi sighed: "then do you remember asking me to send the old duck soup to the prince? You want me to tell the prince that the soup was cooked by myself, but I honestly said it was you."

Baoqin was really shocked.

Only she and concubine Xiao knew about it, not even the emperor.

Xiao Xixi is still talking to himself.

"You always wanted me to compete for favor before, but I was always lazy. You always looked like you hate iron but don't make steel, but you indulged my willfulness every time. You cared about me like an old mother and took great care of me."

Baoqin: "

I should have been very moved, but I didn't feel anything when I heard the three words of my old mother.

Xiao Xi held her hand again, sincerely.

"Baoqin mother, please love me again!"

Baoqin: "

Although the appearance of the imperial concubine in front of her is somewhat different from that of concubine Xiao, the natural sand carving temperament is the same.

Baoqin's heart began to shake.

She asked cautiously.

"Are you really, really Princess Xiao?"

Xiao Xixi: "words have no basis. You can try me."

Baoqin: "how to try?"

Xiao Xi smiled confidently: "cook all your best meals. No matter how much, I can give you. You don't have any residue!"

Baoqin: "

How to put it?

This proposal is very interesting.

Baoqin immediately started to cook a large table of dishes according to Princess Xiao's taste.

Because concubine Xiao likes meat, most of them are heavy oil and spicy meat dishes.

Normal people can't eat so much.

Especially the concubines in the harem. In order to keep fit, they will strictly control their diet and will never eat so much meat and vegetables.

Xiao Xixi saw the delicious food in front of her, and her mouth was salivating wildly.

She picked up her chopsticks and ate them quickly, praising them while eating.

"This meat is delicious! Baoqin, your craft is better than before!"

Baoqin stood by and looked at her without blinking.

Looking at it, the eyes were involuntarily red.

No one knows Princess Xiao's taste better than her, and no one knows all the small details of Princess Xiao's dinner.

At this time, as like as two peas, the imperial concubine was eating the same meal.

The love of delicious food and the feeling of happiness when eating delicious food can never be disguised.

Xiao Xixi straightened her arm and wanted to serve herself a bowl of soup.

Baoqin took the spoon first and filled her with a bowl of sour radish and old duck soup.

Xiao Xixi raised her head and saw Baoqin smiling at her with tears in her eyes.

"Mother, eat slowly and be careful of scalding."

Xiao Xixi took the soup and put it aside. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her sleeve.

"Why are you crying?"

Baoqin knelt at the table and sobbed, "maidservant, this is crying with joy."

Xiao Xi motioned her to sit down and talk.

Baoqin shook her head: "just kneel down."

Xiao Xixi didn't force her. She asked while drinking soup.

"Didn't I return the deed of sale to you? You are already free. Why didn't you leave the palace?"

Baoqin: "if I leave the palace, I will never see you again. I want to stay in the palace until you come back."

Luckily she didn't leave.

Fortunately, concubine Xiao came back.

All the waiting is worth it.

Xiao Xixi: "how have you been in the Palace this year? Has anyone bullied you?"

Baoqin: "no, I'm doing well. After you leave, I'll work in the imperial dining room. I've learned a lot of new dishes in the imperial dining room. I can cook them for you later."

Xiao Xi's eyes brightened: "good, good!"
