"Especially when performing some special tasks, they can use anything that is digestible and non-toxic, even a leaf, to satisfy their hunger."
Luo Jiuli was completely speechless.
This is the hierarchy of feudal society. In the eyes of the superiors, the lives of secret guards are worthless.
Even though it took a lot of effort and a huge amount of money to cultivate it, it is not very expensive.
Because, in their eyes, the secret guard is just a tool that can be used easily, a murderous weapon.
As for those secret guards, they eat raw, cold, or hot food. Whether they are sick or unwell is not considered by the superiors.
"So, the prince bought the prescription to treat stomach problems to give to the secret guards?"
Xiao Mingxuan nodded.
"The training in the secret guard camp is intensive, and the meals are irregular, and most of them are cold food. Almost all the secret guards who survived have some stomach problems."
"If your prescription can completely cure their stomach problems, it will be a great help to me."
Luo Jiuli nodded.
"Your Majesty has such a benevolent heart, so naturally I am willing to help him. I can give the medicine to him as a gift."
"However, this recipe alone is not enough. We also need to change their rules for eating cold food. Even warm food is better than eating cold food directly."
"Okay, I will change this rule."
Xiao Mingxuan smiled, and that smile was so elegant that it made Luo Jiuli's heart feel numb and throbbing a little more.
"Your Majesty."
Luo Jiuli coughed, concealed his embarrassment, and changed the subject.
"Yesterday, King Zhao left the palace privately? Did the Emperor punish him?"
Xiao Mingxuan nodded.
"Fifty sticks and confinement to Prince Zhao's Mansion for half a year."
"That's it?"
Luo Jiuli felt that the punishment was too light.
Xiao Mingxuan looked at her with her little mouth pouting in dissatisfaction, feeling very happy.
"Do you know that looking at the entire royal family, which prince has been beaten twice by the emperor's decree? Grounded for half a year? For Prince Zhao, this is not just a stick punishment, but a grounding."
"What's more, King Zhao has not yet mastered his charm skills and is poisoned by love. Such a prince is easily restrained by the enemy's careful manipulation. How many people in the front and back palaces are watching? How many people in the various forces have different thoughts?"
When Luo Jiuli heard this, he rolled his eyes and suddenly became enlightened.
The former dynasty is the courtiers, and the harem is the concubines, but both the courtiers and the concubines are related to their respective camps behind their backs.
The emperor has reached the age of forty, but he has not yet established a prince. Now that something has happened to King Zhao, it is not a trivial matter. He is being manipulated by the enemy. How can such a person be qualified for the position of prince?
"What do you mean, Your Majesty? The Emperor has lost patience with Prince Zhao?"
Xiao Mingxuan did not answer her directly.
"The situation in the court is turbulent and turbulent. There are some things that you should know in your heart. Don't let the misfortune come out of your mouth."
Luo Jiuli nodded.
"I understand. In this case, I will not tell anyone else except the prince."
Xiao Mingxuan was so sweet by her words that she felt at ease.
Thinking about it, she really treats him differently.
When leaving the Ninth Prince's Mansion, Xiao Mingxuan, who was in a good mood, insisted on sending her away, but Luo Jiuli blocked her in every possible way.
In the end, Xiao Mingxuan couldn't resist her persistence and had to reluctantly let Xiao Wu send the person back to the Yiguo Duke's mansion.
Here, just as the carriage escorting Luo Jiuli left, another carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley in front of the Nine Princes' Mansion.
"cousin."
Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.
Xiao Mingxuan, who was about to turn around and go home, heard the voice, bit his back molars, turned around and looked over with a sly smile.
I saw the carriage door open, and a pair of slender fingers stretched out first.
Then, a thin, slender, handsome and noble man, wearing a red brocade robe and a golden wand, walked down.
The man's seductive fox eyes captivated everyone. When he wasn't smiling, he showed a bit of coldness and sinisterness. When he smiled, he was really like the seductive fox who could forcefully seduce people's hearts and souls.
On the side, when the housekeeper saw the man, his head buzzed, he stepped back involuntarily, and bowed.
"Young Master Cousin."
This man is none other than Xiao Mingxuan's cousin, the master behind Tianxiang Tower, Xing Xiyan, who is well-known in the business circles of the capital.
Xing Xiyan smiled.
"Good boy, go ahead and make a pot of the best Biluochun for me."
The housekeeper's old face immediately looked like he was crying. This young cousin is a free-spirited man. It's hard to figure out his temperament and preferences, especially when it comes to men and women.
You may say that he likes women, but he is a frequent visitor to the Elephant Gu's Pavilion, and those little waiters in the pavilion are waiting for him to come.
But you have to say that he likes men. He also hangs out in brothels and spends a lot of money on those girls. He is handsome and young, he is a wealthy businessman, and he has no concubines in his family. Those in the brothels on Eighth Street
The girls also broke their heads in order to fight for him, and almost killed themselves once.
Xiao Mingxuan looked solemn and gave the housekeeper a look.
"Go ahead."
"yes."
The housekeeper got the order and ran away quickly.
Xing Xiyan narrowed his fox eyes and smiled.
"I am neither a tiger nor a cannibal. Why are the servants in my cousin's house so virtuous?"
"What kind of virtue? You don't even look at yourself, what kind of trouble you have made."
Xiao Mingxuan's voice was cold.
"Don't look at me and smile with your fox eyes."
Xing Xiyan was not upset and walked up the steps to the beat of the drum.
"My cousin asked me to get out of here. Before I even spoke, you gave me a command, okay?"
Xiao Mingxuan rubbed his temples, suppressing the urge to slap him to death.
"Should you explain to me what happened in Tianxiang Tower last time?"
Xing Xiyan shrugged.
"There's nothing to explain. I despise Princess Wen Ya and hate Hu Bingyu, so I just wanted to make them feel uncomfortable. It just so happens that my cousin is here. Looking at the whole capital, only my cousin can cure them."
Xing Xiyan rolled his eyes and changed the subject.
"But then again, why did my cousin hook up with the second young lady of the Luo family?"
"How should I put it, she was once my cousin's niece-in-law. Although they divorced, she was still a concubine, and she was-"
boom!
Xiao Mingxuan didn't move his hands. He moved his feet and put one foot on Xing Xiyan's butt.
The splendid young master, Mr. Xing, who was famous in the business world, was kicked to pieces in full view of the public.
"Cousin, for that woman, you actually did something to me?"
Xing Xiyan's aggrieved fox eyes looked like crying and laughing at the same time.
Xiao Mingxuan looked at him coldly.
"If you dare to make random arrangements for the second lady of the Luo family again, I will break your legs."
