The girl froze for a moment, then looked at him inexplicably.

Leng Ming blinked his eyes sideways, and continued with a little mystery:

"Treat my mother and concubine well. One day, I will come back to pick you up. At that time, you will be a hero. Even if you can't be made a queen, you can still be a noble concubine."

Leng Ming's words stunned the girl in front of her for a moment. Looking at this handsome man, her face flushed a little, and her heart began to beat wildly.

Leng Ming knew that this little girl was tricked, and if he wanted his mother and concubine to live a stable life here, he had no choice but to find a way to make this little girl willingly take care of her mother and concubine.

He took out a jade pendant and a few ingots of silver from his cuff and held them in front of the little girl.

"This jade pendant is what I gave you as a token of love. Keep it away and don't let others see it. There are also these pieces of silver. Buy some food and drink for my mother and concubine. I will give it to you again when I have a chance." some silver..."

The little girl took the jade pendant and those pieces of silver with trembling hands, and looked at him like a dream,

"My lord, is what you said true?"

Leng Ming raised his hand, gently stroked the broken hair on her forehead with eyes full of ambiguity, and nodded with a smile on the corner of his mouth,

"Everything this king said is true. As long as you treat my mother and concubine well, this king will definitely not let you down."

"Lord Ming..."

The little girl was a little flattered and held the jade pendant to her chest, biting her lip shyly while nodding,

"Prince Ming, my name is Xiaotao, you must remember my name, and I will remember what you said."

"Just remember, I'll go first, remember, take good care of my concubine mother, you will have a chance to fly up to a branch and become a phoenix, if I find out that you dare to treat her badly again, you know what I will do."

"Don't worry, my lord, Xiaotao will definitely regard her as her master, so she can serve her well."

Leng Ming glanced at her, rolled his eyes with unclear meaning, got up and came to Concubine Chang Gui, clasped his fists reluctantly and said:

"Mother and concubine, my son is leaving first, you cherish it, and if there is a chance in the future, my son will come again."

Concubine Chang Gui knew what a crime it was to trespass in the cold palace, she hurriedly nodded,

"Go, don't let anyone find out."

Seeing this, Xiaotao quickly walked up to him, and said in a courteous voice:

"Don't worry, my lord, Xiaotao will go outside to have a look first."

This little girl was already fascinated by Leng Ming's words. When she was talking to Leng Ming, her face turned red unconsciously.

She turned around and opened the door. After looking outside for a while, she turned around and said to Leng Ming:

"No one is there now, you go!"

Leng Ming glanced at Concubine Chang Gui once again, and walked towards the door with big strides.

When passing by Xiaotao, he looked at Xiaotao, raised the corner of his mouth and said:

"Xiao Tao, I will remember your name, and you must also remember what I said."

Xiao Tao's face turned crimson again, she lowered her head and nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, my lord, Xiao Tao will wait for you."

When she finished speaking and looked up, she found that Leng Ming had disappeared from her eyes. She looked at the jade pendant in her hand, snickered contentedly, and turned around to close the door.

After coming out of the cold palace, Leng Ming's mood became very complicated.

From the face of the concubine mother, he could see that she had suffered a lot during this time.

He had no choice but to say those words against his will. In order to prevent his mother and concubine from suffering more, he could only temporarily sell his heart and take advantage of that Xiaotao.

Luo Xue, I'm sorry!

At the same time these words appeared in his mind, Luo Xue's shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

It seems that in this era where imperial power is paramount, he must obtain enough rights. Only in this way can he protect his closest relatives and get the one he loves the most.

If he is lucky enough to ascend to the throne, he can not only save his mother and concubine, but also marry Luo Xue. Since he has the opportunity, why not fight for it?

He looked up at the sky, the gray sky made him feel a little depressed, the dark clouds on that day seemed to tell him that the road ahead would be difficult, but even though he knew that the sky would rain cats and dogs at any time, he still had to stand up to the rain Moving forward, for the sake of his mother and concubine, for Luo Xue, he cannot turn back, and there is no way to turn back...

……

In the royal garden,

Yu Qiaoqiao sat in the pavilion, watching the three children playing from afar, with a faint smile on her lips.

Lele was really left by the emperor to play chess with him, and the other three children ran to the back garden to play, Luo Lan told A Cai to watch them, and she left the palace early to go to the Spring Hall.

Recently, dysentery in the capital is quite serious. She was afraid that she would be anxious if the patient could not be found, so she hurried to Huichuntang.

"A Cai, sit down for a while, Princess Yu is not here, and I am not your master, so there are no such rules."

A Cai smiled and shook her head,

"I'm not tired, I'm used to standing."

Seeing that A Cai didn't seem to appreciate it, Yu Qiaoqiao said nothing, and looked at the three children who were climbing up and down the rockery again.

After Leng Ming came out of the cold palace, he went straight to the imperial garden. He expected the three children to be in the imperial garden.

He came in front of Yu Qiaoqiao, clasped his fists in salute,

"Fifth sister-in-law..."

Yu Qiaoqiao was busy shaking her head and waving her hands in embarrassment. She wanted to tell Leng Ming not to call her fifth sister-in-law. He nodded,

"Prince Ming, haven't you left the palace yet?"

"I haven't seen the children for a long time, play with them for a while."

A Cai nodded with a smile on the corner of her mouth,

"These children also mentioned you all day long, saying that they haven't seen you for a long time, you should go over quickly, they will be very happy to see you later."

Leng Ming smiled without saying a word, raised his foot, and walked towards the rockery where the children were.

Seeing his arrival, An An, who was having a good time, ran to him first, took his hand, looked up at him, pouted and blamed,

"Uncle, where have you been? We haven't seen you for several days."

Huaiyu also ran over, nodded with wide eyes,

"Well, we all miss you, why haven't you been to Prince Yu's Mansion for a long time?"

He raised his hand and touched Huaiyu's head, then smiled at An An and said:

"Little uncle only hasn't been there for a few days. It's been a long time. I'm here to accompany you now."

While talking, he looked at Xiao Bao who was timidly standing aside, and waved to him,

"Xiaobao, come here too!"

Xiaobao pursed his lips, looking embarrassed.

Seeing this, An An stepped forward and pulled him over.

"Xiaobao, little uncle is very good with us. He often plays with us. Now that we are friends, he will also play with you."

Xiaobao looked at Leng Ming, oh, and called out cautiously:

"Uncle..."

Seeing Xiaobao's completely different appearance before this comparison, Leng Ming felt a burst of sadness.

In the past, Xiaobao was spoiled lawlessly by the people of Prince Xi's Mansion, but now Xiaobao has inexplicably become as timid as a mouse.

In fact, only Xiaobao and Yu Qiaoqiao understood what was going on. During this period of time, Lengxi, who had always been tolerant of Xiaobao, suddenly became serious after some stimulation. Bao's attitude took a 180-degree turn, and he proposed various tasks that Xiaobao could never complete.

For example, let Xiaobao memorize the entire book of poems in one day, let Xiaobao master a complete set of kung fu in three days, if Xiaobao can't do it, he will be beaten with sticks, and he will not even be allowed to eat. Locking him in a small black room, in just a few months, Xiao Bao became what he is now.
