After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

Hearing this, the little palace lady was slightly stunned, "But the emperor ordered the slaves to take good care of Miss Su."

The emperor said that Su Xiaoxi was injured and needed to be taken good care of, so she could not be treated badly.

"I know." Su Xiaoxi glanced at the little Gong'e who looked surprised, "I just want to tell you that the emperor hopes that I will have the strength to negotiate with your master after I have eaten and slept well, isn't he?"

Little Gong'e suddenly realized, "Yes, yes, Miss Su is right!"

Su Xiaoxi smiled, "So I'm hungry now. If I don't eat enough, how can I have the strength to talk to him?"

Little Gong'e nodded again.

Su Xiaoxi couldn't help but laugh. Looking at the silly little girl in front of her, she found it extremely interesting.

"Then you go and tell the emperor, I will try my best to cooperate with him if he wants." After saying that, Su Xiaoxi waved her hand to signal the little Gong'e to step back.

The little Gong'e accepted the order and left obediently.

The room suddenly became quiet, and Su Xiaoxi sat motionless on the stool.

She was waiting for Nangong Chen. Regardless of whether he wanted to have a meal with her or not, Su Xiaoxi felt that she had to give it a try.

If Nangong Chen is willing to come, then this scene might be fun.

……

As night fell, Su Xiaoxi sat alone at the table, looking at the table full of food, without any appetite.

At this time, Nangong Chen finally arrived.

"Sorry, I'm late." As soon as Nangong Chen came in, he bowed to Su Xiaoxi and apologized.

Su Xiaoxi raised her eyes and glanced at Nangong Chen, but did not respond.

"Miss Su, please forgive me. I just finished reviewing the memorial when I heard that Miss Su was here, so I hurriedly came to have dinner with Miss Su." Nangong Chen added.

"In that case, let's get started." As she said that, Su Xiaoxi started to use her chopsticks.

Seeing this, Nangong Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that this woman would not give him face.

Neither of them spoke, and ate in silence.

During this period, Su Xiaoxi occasionally brought food to Nangong Chen.

Nangong Chen would also pick up food for Su Xiaoxi, and there seemed to be a good understanding between the two.

"Miss Su, now our army from the Ning Dynasty has wiped out a group of Beirong people. This step is considered a victory for us. It was Miss Su's ingenious plan!"

After the meal, Nangong Chen broke the silence.

When Su Xiaoxi heard this, a slight smile appeared on her lips.

As expected, it is His Majesty the Emperor. He is very well-informed and even knows the situation of the war.

"Your Majesty is so complimentary." Su Xiaoxi said modestly.

In fact, Su Xiaoxi was really confused.

She was just guessing. As for the final outcome, who can guarantee it?

Nangong Chen looked at Su Xiaoxi and couldn't help but think of what happened this evening.

"By the way, Miss Su, your face seems a little pale." Nangong Chen asked with concern.

"It's just that the wind and cold didn't stop yesterday." Su Xiaoxi said casually, "Thank you for your hospitality today, Your Majesty."

Hearing Su Xiaoxi's thanks, Nangong Chen was a little embarrassed. He wanted to talk to Su Xiaoxi more, but Su Xiaoxi didn't seem to want to continue this topic.

"I wonder if Miss Su is satisfied with these meals. If not, you can make another one." Nangong Chen changed the subject.

"These are good."

Hearing this, Nangong Chen showed a happy smile on his face, and then said, "However, I have told the imperial kitchen to prepare these dishes according to Miss Su's usual dishes."

These dishes were specially prepared by him at the imperial kitchen.

It was because of these dishes that he was deeply impressed by Su Xiaoxi.

Su Xiaoxi was slightly startled when she heard this. She didn't expect that Nangong Chen would remember these details.

After glancing at Nangong Chen, Su Xiaoxi said nothing. She was very entangled in her heart now. She originally wanted to take this opportunity to have a showdown with Nangong Chen and then leave.

But now it seems that it has no effect. Nangong Chen seems to have an inexplicable obsession with her, and is even somewhat dependent on her.

Su Xiaoxi was extremely upset. Why did she forget it?

Apart from Nangong Chen, there is no other person in the world who can cure her poison, so the only person she can count on is Nangong Chen.

If there was a falling out at this time, she was afraid that she would not even have a chance to get out of this house alive.

Thinking of this, Su Xiaoxi's brows furrowed into a Sichuan shape.

Over the years, Su Xiaoxi has become accustomed to relying on herself in everything, but this is the first time she feels helpless.

"Why don't Miss Su eat? Doesn't it suit your appetite?" Seeing that Su Xiaoxi remained silent for a long time, Nangong Chen couldn't help but ask, looking at Su Xiaoxi with burning eyes.

"No, it tastes good." Su Xiaoxi shook her head, picked up the chopsticks and continued eating.

She didn't believe that Nangong Chen wouldn't come to her, so she was waiting.

After eating, Nangong Chen did not leave immediately, but personally sent Su Xiaoxi back to her room.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar courtyard in front of him, a delicate and pretty little face appeared in Nangong Chen's mind.

"I heard that an assassin broke in this afternoon." Nangong Chen suddenly said.

Su Xiaoxi's hand that was about to close the door paused slightly, turned around and looked at Nangong Chen, "Yes."

Although she didn't clearly explain who the assassin was targeting, someone as smart as Nangong Chen would definitely understand.

"Don't worry, Miss Su, I will definitely protect you." Nangong Chen said seriously.

"Your Majesty, now that Beirong has been watching with eager eyes, Your Majesty needs to be more careful!" Su Xiaoxi reminded.

After all, the Daning Dynasty is currently in internal turmoil. If something happens to Nangong Chen, it will be a heavy loss for Daning.

"I understand." Nangong Chen nodded, "Miss Su, please rest early."

After saying that, Nangong Chen turned around and left the tent.

Looking at Nangong Chen's retreating back, Su Xiaoxi couldn't help but sigh.

Originally, she planned to take this opportunity to tell Nangong Chen her plan and then leave.

But she didn't expect that her plan would fail before it even started.

well. .

The next morning, Su Xiaoxi got up early to wash up and change into men's clothes.

Although it is a border town now, the people can be regarded as simple and honest, and the people of the Ning Dynasty are also actively busy fighting against the Beirong army.

So the streets didn't seem deserted.

After walking through the long alley and bypassing several alleys, Su Xiaoxi finally arrived at her destination - a drug store.

This medicine shop is exactly the one that Nangong Chen once helped him.

Standing outside the medicine shop, Su Xiaoxi looked up at the three characters "medicine shop" on the plaque and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

After a while, Su Xiaoxi stepped in.

The shopkeeper came out warmly and greeted Su Xiaoxi respectfully, "Master Su."

"Boss, I'm here to pick up the medicine today." Su Xiaoxi said her intention directly, eliminating the need to beat around the bush.

"Okay, wait a moment." The shopkeeper agreed readily.
