Chapter 154: Children's Thoughts
After putting Zhong Xiaoxiao to sleep, Li Xin also washed up and fell asleep, this day he was busy from morning to night, he didn't pay attention, and now he is a little tired.
Early the next morning, Li Xin changed into Yu Linwei's regular clothes and prepared to go to Princess Qinghe's Mansion to report, after all, he had been back to the capital for three or four days, and he had been skipping work for the past few days, and he had never been to Princess Qinghe's Mansion, so it was time to go back to work.
Zhong Xiaoxiao was left at home by him, this girl is more withdrawn, and she can't play with her peers, so Li Xin locks her at home or sends her to Deyi Lou every day when she goes out, but Deyi Lou should be busy helping Wei Wangfu buy wine on the market these days, and it is estimated that she has no time to take care of the little girl, so Li Xin left her at home.
Princess Qinghe's Mansion is not very far from Li Xin's house, and it took about a pillar of incense for Li Xin to come to the door of this princess's mansion.
Guarding the door were two black-clad and black-armored Yulin guards.
After these two Yu Linwei saw Li Xin, they all bent over and clenched their fists: "I've seen Captain Li." ”
Li Xin glanced at them and said softly: "On a hot day, you don't need to cover your armor, tell Zhu Ke that when you are on duty in the summer in the future, you can wear regular clothes." ”
Yu Linwei's main color is black, which is already very hot, and they are still wearing a layer of black armor, which is only early in the morning, and their foreheads are full of sweat, and by noon, most of them will faint.
This Yu Linwei smiled gratefully at Li Xin, bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Captain Li!" ”
With his subordinates, the most important thing is to be gracious and powerful, the two hundred Yulin guards in the Qinghe Princess Mansion, although they are Li Xin's subordinates, but the sentry officer Zhu Ke has led them for a longer time, Li Xin may not be more influential than Zhu Ke, but now Li Xin is just a short sentence, which makes these soldiers grateful to him.
After all, these two hundred people, except for the sentry team, the rest of the people have to be on duty, Li Xin's short sentence makes these people don't know how much suffering they have suffered, and they all have to be grateful to Li Xin.
These are all small skills that Li Xin figured out when he was a small leader in his last life, which looks inconspicuous, but it is very useful.
After walking into the backyard of the princess's mansion, Li Xin frowned.
Their captain battalion, a total of 200 people, rotated day and night, deducting the people on rotation, there are at least eighty or ninety people on duty in the princess's mansion every day, and these eighty or ninety people are distributed in various key positions in the princess's mansion, or patrolling in the princess's mansion, but Li Xin walked in all the way, but found that there were a lot less.
Senior Lieutenant Li casually pulled a Yu Linwei over and asked, "Why are there fewer people, where have they gone?" ”
This Yu Linwei was also a young man, he looked about the same size as Li Xin, and he arched his hand at Li Xin: "Captain Li, many brothers have been called by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I don't know what they did. ”
Li Xin walked towards the courtyard where the ninth princess lived, and after walking in, he found that there were at least twenty black-clothed Yu Lin guards here, each holding two bamboo chopsticks in their hands, stirring something in the clay pot.
A few black lines appeared on Li Xin's forehead.
This Ji Lingxiu is really the best among foodies, she wrote her the method of making cream that day, and she actually called so many Yu Linwei to make cream for her!
Captain Li had a dark face and waved his hand at them: "What should I do, what should I do, what is it like to gather here!" ”
In a sense, Li Xin is the direct official of these Yulinwei, but Princess Qinghe is more powerful after all, these people looked up at Li Xin, and said with a wry smile: "Captain Li, Her Royal Highness the princess ......"
"Go ahead, Her Royal Highness the princess will bear the blame."
As soon as these words came out, these Yu Lin Wei immediately scattered.
Mixing this thing is really not a good job, their arms have been sore for a long time, and now Li Xin is here, just to rescue them.
Li Xin walked to Princess Qinghe's room and said loudly: "Yulinwei Li Xin, please see Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
The door was slowly pushed open, and the ninth princess poked her head out of it, there was still some cream residue on her mouth, and after sticking out her head to look left and right, she frowned: "Did you get them all away?" ”
Li Xin's face turned dark: "They are Yulin Wei, they are the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, and they are guarding the safety of His Highness in the Princess's Mansion, but they are not for His Highness to eat." ”
Ji Lingxiu only showed one head and beckoned to Li Xin.
"It's hot outside, you come in and talk."
Li Xin took a deep breath and walked into the side hall.
There are a lot of ice cubes in the room, which is full of coolness, and the summer heat disappears here.
The reason why Ji Lingxiu only poked her head out was because she was afraid that the cool air in the room would "run away".
There are only two people in the room, she and the maid Cui'er, both of whom are of the same age, both about fifteen or sixteen years old, and it can be said that they grew up since childhood.
Li Xin was a little speechless.
He's starting to regret making this thing a little.
Ice cream is a killer of girls.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, it's really bad to eat too much of this thing......"
Ji Lingxiu put down the porcelain bowl in his hand and glanced at Li Xin: "What's bad, it's cold and cold, but it's delicious." ”
She snorted, "But those people don't make as good a meal as you do." ”
"And you got them away!"
Li Xin sighed helplessly: "There are just two of you, it's enough to get some to eat, why do you want so many people to come over?" This princess's mansion is much larger than the ordinary princess's mansion, and there are not enough people, and you still called so many people at once. ”
This Qinghe Princess Mansion was supervised by Ji Wen, the Seventh Prince, and the place is more than three or four times larger than the ordinary Princess Mansion, and it is probably much larger than a large community in later generations, and in such a large place, eighty or ninety people are indeed not enough.
Ji Lingxiu smiled: "Because I want to get more, and then I will enter the palace tomorrow and give some to my father and mother so that they can be happy." ”
Li Xin glanced at the Ninth Princess with some surprise.
I thought she would only eat and mess around, but I didn't expect that she would please people.
In the imperial era, pleasing others may not be a bit serious, but pleasing the emperor is a serious thing.
Speaking of this, the Ninth Princess snorted lightly: "Not long after Cui'er called them over, you called them all away, so you can stay and get all these things right!" ”
Ji Lingxiu is sixteen years old this year, and it stands to reason that she has reached the age of getting married, and she just wants to curry favor with Emperor Chengde more, so that her marriage can go more smoothly.
Thinking of this, Ji Lingxiu glanced up at Li Xin, feeling a little aggrieved in her heart.
Outside the room, there were more than 20 clay pots, and Li Xin was definitely unable to finish them alone.
Lieutenant Li shook his head, took out a few pears from the fruit bowl on the side, then broke them, found a porcelain bowl and squeezed half a bowl of juice into it, put a few more ice cubes, and finally put some cream that the Ninth Princess had made earlier.
A serving of pear ice cream is complete!
After finishing it, Li Xin sighed softly at the Ninth Princess.
"Okay, I'll compensate you for this, after eating this, don't eat it again today, eat this early in the morning, like what?"
"As for the matter dedicated to Your Majesty, aren't there still a lot of maids in your house, the girls are careful, let them get it, the people who use Yu Linwei are too disagreeable."
Ji Lingxiu held the pear juice ice cream made by Li Xin, and suddenly smiled.
