Chapter 271 Expectation
"Meow. (This is what you said.)"
Li Xuan couldn't help but turn around and meow at Zhao Feng. The smile on his face could not be suppressed, and his eyes bent into a pair of beautiful crescent moons.
Seeing his kindness, Zhao Feng slapped his butt angrily.
"Can I, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, still keep my word?"
"But..."
As soon as this came out, Li Xuan couldn't help but darken his face.
"Nothing is free in this world."
"As for the rules, you know them."
Zhao Feng raised his eyebrows and gave Li Xuan a greasy wink.
Li Xuan couldn't help but rolled his eyes, but continued to talk about business with Zhao Feng.
He wrote a few words on the table with his tail.
"Can you get the heavenly materials and earthly treasures related to the power of yin and yang?"
Zhao Feng looked at the writing on the table and couldn't help crossing his arms and shaking his head.
"Even treasures with only one Yin or Yang attribute are extremely rare. As for treasures with both attributes, I have only seen them in books."
Zhao Feng's expression was serious, not like he was joking.
"If there are any clues related to it, I will help you find it."
"But the price is..."
Zhao Feng immediately stopped talking and stared at Li Xuan with evil intentions and laughed strangely.
Li Xuan couldn't help but shudder and thought:
"Being cute isn't all a benefit."
But people under the eaves have to bow their heads.
Li Xuan now had to ask for help from others and had to endure these grievances.
However, Zhao Feng laughed a few times and suddenly found Princess Ankang staring at him with strange eyes. Zhao Feng suddenly coughed several times, and the coughing got worse and worse, almost coughing out his lungs.
"I almost forgot that His Highness was still around."
Zhao Feng sweated in his heart and immediately saluted and apologized:
"This old slave has lost his temper. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
As a result, Princess Ankang stepped forward timidly, hugged Li Xuan in her arms, still looked at Zhao Feng with vigilance, and said quietly:
"It's okay for Manager Zhao to joke with Ah Xuan..."
"But don't really bully him."
What Princess Ankang said was so pitiful that it made people feel unbearable.
Zhao Feng hurriedly said:
"No, Your Highness."
"How could this old slave bully Ah Xuan?"
"I was just teasing him."
Zhao Feng wiped his forehead with his sleeve, fearing that he would make Princess Ankang cry.
At his age, if he makes a child cry, he will tell you how to meet people when he goes out.
And if Manager Shang finds out, Zhao Feng will definitely have to be taught a lesson again.
Princess Ankang was about to cry, while Li Xuan and Yu'er looked at him silently.
This made Zhao Feng, the culprit, very anxious.
"That……"
"If His Highness gives you an order but says it's okay, I will definitely do my best and die!"
Seeing that Princess Ankang wanted to say something but couldn't, Zhao Feng quickly reassured Princess Ankang and comforted Princess Ankang.
As long as she doesn't cry now, everything is easy to discuss.
Otherwise, Princess Ankang will be made to cry. How will Zhao Feng behave in front of the three little ones in the future?
"The bad old man who bullied the little princess."
Zhao Feng didn't dare to bear such an infamy.
And it’s so embarrassing!
"As for what Ah Xuan asked the manager for help just now..."
Princess Ankang glanced at the table as she spoke.
It was there that Li Xuan was writing for Zhao Feng just now, and Princess Ankang on the side probably saw it too.
Zhao Feng immediately looked blank.
"Why doesn't this princess learn well?"
Zhao Feng glanced at Li Xuan and felt that the cat had led Princess Ankang to evil.
As a result, when Princess Ankang saw that Zhao Feng was silent, she twitched her tall little nose and was about to start a fight.
"well!"
"Your Highness, I have agreed to this matter, but it is not enough even if I have agreed!"
Zhao Feng quickly stretched out his hand to stop the tears that were rolling in Princess Ankang's eyes.
As soon as she heard Zhao Feng agreed, Princess Ankang's tears rolled down her cheeks, and then she disappeared to someone unknown, as if the tears Zhao Feng saw were just hallucinations.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but sigh secretly:
"They are really carved from the same mold!"
Looking at Princess Ankang who was crying and smiling in front of him, Zhao Feng couldn't help but think of his old friend.
"Mr. Zhao always keeps his word. Ankang naturally trusts you."
Princess Ankang smiled and used what Zhao Feng had said to Li Xuan before to praise him.
Li Xuan immediately became happy when he saw Princess Ankang's performance. He quickly came in front of Princess Ankang, rubbed her cheek with his head, meowed coquettishly, and rewarded her with joy.
"Meow! (My Ankang is awesome!)"
Li Xuan was coquettishly coquettish with Princess Ankang on the side, and he didn't forget to look at Zhao Feng's reaction secretly. It was a shame that he deserved a beating.
Zhao Feng's eyes twitched in anger, but there was nothing he could do against Li Xuan.
"Hey, old Zhaotou."
"This is called one thing bringing down another thing."
Li Xuan was so proud that he grinned at Zhao Feng so unscrupulously.
"Your Highness, I will accept this matter."
"But what I said before was not a lie to Ah Xuan."
"The treasures of heaven and earth that Ah Xuan requested are really rare, and I may not be able to find them."
Zhao Feng quickly wrote out his disclaimer, fearing that if he didn't find something in the future, he would be regarded as a renegade by the three little ones.
Princess Ankang quickly said:
"Manager Zhao, Ankang just saw you and Ah Xuan having fun, so he just followed the joke."
"Just try your best on this matter, don't dare to expect results."
"Just like that, Ankang and Ah Xuan are very grateful."
Zhao Feng opened his mouth, but all the words he originally wanted to say were suppressed.
Although he was very grateful to Princess Ankang for her understanding, he felt a little uncomfortable as if he had been despised.
"Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness."
Zhao Feng was full of complicated emotions, but in the end he could only say this.
It was just that as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he felt a little strange about being looked down upon by a child.
It's not like he has never encountered the method of provoking generals before, he usually just dismisses it.
How could such a clumsy trap possibly deceive him, the "Smiling Tiger"?
In terms of martial arts cultivation, Zhao Feng does not have much confidence in himself.
But in the face of intrigues and intrigues, he prided himself on having some achievements.
However, Zhao Feng knew that he had been fooled by his growing desire to win.
"Is it just being looked down upon by children?"
"Am I really that important?"
Zhao Feng asked himself, but did not get the answer immediately.
And this was already a definite answer for him.
Zhao Feng immediately shook his head and did not continue to dwell on this topic.
He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself, and he would do something stupid again and promise something he shouldn't have promised.
"By the way, Your Highness."
"The competition in the Royal Garden will be held soon, and there should be an order from His Majesty soon."
When Zhao Feng talked about this matter, he successfully aroused the curiosity of Li Xuan and Princess Ankang.
It's almost mid-term, but there's still no news about the postponed Imperial Garden game.
Li Xuan almost thought that this month's competition was canceled by Emperor Yongyuan.
"oh?"
"Manager Zhao, can this kind of thing be disclosed to us in advance?"
Although Princess Ankang was curious, she still asked cautiously.
She didn't want Zhao Feng to be punished by Emperor Yongyuan for leaking information to them.
But Zhao Feng shook his head and continued:
"This matter has been spread in the palace, and many people already know about it."
Zhao Feng smiled slightly, what he said was quite meaningful.
"This time the competition in the Royal Garden will be held outside the palace, and His Majesty did not deliberately hide the news."
"After all, in order to arrange this matter, the palace also sent many people out, and many people have already noticed it."
Zhao Feng said and glanced at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan understood immediately.
It seems that Zhao Feng knew about Li Xuan's visit to them yesterday and specifically told him why Manager Shang was not in the palace.
"So that's it."
Li Xuan secretly thought in his heart, and was also grateful to Zhao Feng for telling them about this matter.
Although he has a group of cat brothers, his information is not as well-informed as the other nobles in the palace.
Especially when the news involves outside the palace, Li Xuan's sources are even more insufficient.
"Your Highness, you can rest assured. Your Majesty did not deliberately hide this matter."
"Therefore, if the old slave told His Highness this matter, it would not be considered a leak."
Zhao Feng first reassured Princess Ankang, and then said everything he could.
Speaking of which, there is actually no very important information.
The most important thing is that this month's competition will be held outside the palace.
As for other competitions, they will be held soon, but Zhao Feng has not disclosed the specific dates to them.
As for matters related to the content of the game, Zhao Feng never talked about it.
In terms of what can and cannot be said, Zhao Feng knows better than anyone else.
After Zhao Feng left, just as he said, a colorful eunuch came to convey Emperor Yongyuan's oral instructions.
Tomorrow all the princes and princesses will gather in the Royal Garden for the drawing ceremony before this month's competition.
Those who fail to draw lots will be treated as a forfeit and will be disqualified from participating in this month.
The eunuch in colorful clothes who came to deliver the oral instructions did not mention leaving the palace, but the three little ones were still convinced by Zhao Feng's words.
Especially Princess Ankang and Yu'er, after knowing that this competition can leave the palace, they are both worried and looking forward to it.
Princess Ankang has never been out of the palace in her life, and now that she has the opportunity to leave the palace, not to mention the excitement.
She was more concerned about leaving the palace than this month's competition.
The last time, when Li Xuan left the palace, he brought her delicious candied haws.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to leave the palace, Princess Ankang wanted to eat again.
She planned to stand on the bustling street with Li Xuan and Yu'er this time, just like the runny-nosed kid on the roadside that Li Xuan mentioned. The three of them watched the excitement on the street and shared a candied haws. Enjoying the happiness of ordinary children.
Princess Ankang held her chin up and sat next to the stone table, her bright eyes looking in the direction outside the palace in the distance.
"Axuan, do you still remember where you bought candied haws on a stick last time?"
Thank you all book friends for your monthly support.
Hehe, winter is here, and I am also craving for candied haws.
See you all tomorrow
