Chapter 856

The food cut off by steward Cao will not fall into the mouth of the servants. Steward Cao ordered people to choose two kinds of dishes, warmed a pot of wine, and asked the guards in the house to quickly send them to Lord Xiao in the palace.

"I must hand it over to the prince in person, and tell him that the princess has prepared a table of vegetables for the prince to eat together. She is very disappointed that the prince does not come back." It's true. Steward Cao doesn't think it's wrong to say that.

Of course, the princess would be angry when she knew that he was making his own decision to deliver food to the prince, but the princess would be angry at most for a moment; If the prince didn't know what happened tonight, he would be unhappy for a long time.

For the sake of harmony and stability in the palace, he had to sacrifice himself.

Obviously, the bodyguard also knew what happened today. He rushed to the palace immediately, proved his identity, and ran all the way to the temporary office of King Xiao.

The light in the house was bright, so King Xiao was still dealing with his official business. For a moment, the bodyguard wanted to go back. All the servants of King Xiao's house knew that when the LORD was doing something, he could not disturb him.

Is it really not important to have dinner with the princess?

But on second thought, the bodyguard thought that it was important for the princess not to be happy.

There are only two masters in the palace, the prince and the princess. If the princess is not happy, the prince will not be happy. At that time, the two masters will be in a bad mood. We can't have a good life.

For the sake of the royal family, the bodyguard stepped forward and asked the little eunuch who was guarding the door to report. But before he finished his words, the little eunuch shook his head again and again: "no, no, no, no one can disturb you."

"I have..." the bodyguard said again, but he was interrupted by the little eunuch before he finished saying, "I know you are from King Xiao's house. If you want something, you can go in by yourself. I dare not stop you." If he doesn't go in, he doesn't have the courage to disturb Lord Xiao.

Mr. Xiao was too serious when he was working seriously. He didn't dare.

The bodyguard glared at the little eunuch who was afraid of death, straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and then came forward to knock on the door: "Lord, I'm in a humble position. I beg to see you."

Tianzihao is the confidant of King Xiao. If it wasn't for this, he couldn't have come here smoothly.

"Come in." Inside the room, there was Xiao Wang's cold voice. He couldn't hear the joy and anger from the voice, but Tianqi's heart was still shocked and missed a beat.

Before that, no one dared to disturb the prince's office. This is the first time. I hope that the prince will look at the face of the princess, regardless of his boldness.

"Lord." The bodyguard came in and tightened his hand to carry the food box.

"What's the matter?" Xiao TIANYAO put down his unfinished fold.

He knew that his men would never be disturbed by anything important.

"This... Is for you by the princess." The bodyguard raised the food box, but did not dare to rush forward.

"Princess?" Xiao TIANYAO was shocked. A surprise flashed in his eyes, but his face was still serious: "take it up." It's rare that the woman still remembers him, but she didn't send it in person. I'm a little sorry.

The bodyguard carefully put the food box in front of Xiao TIANYAO, and the smart one didn't open it on his own.

Xiao TIANYAO suppressed the joy in his heart, pretended not to care, carried the food box to him, and opened it without expression. When he saw the dishes in the food box, he couldn't help frowning: Why are they all cold dishes? It's something he doesn't really like.

However, thinking that Lin Chujiu didn't spend much time with him and didn't know what he liked to eat, Xiao TIANYAO was magnanimous.

"Get out." After a busy day, he was really hungry. The food Lin Chujiu sent was too timely.

Xiao Wang, who was overjoyed, automatically ignored the fact that there were only two cold dishes in his food box that he couldn't get enough. He just focused on his heart.

"Lord, there's one more thing..." the guard finally understood why the little eunuch outside the door didn't dare to come in.

In the face of a serious prince, the pressure is too great.

"He said Xiao TIANYAO's eyes swept from the two dishes on the table and fell on the bodyguard. He was a little impatient.

The bodyguard swallowed his saliva, closed his eyes and said quickly, "my Lord, the princess went to the kitchen to arrange the dishes this afternoon. After waiting for my Lord for two hours, I went to the backyard to have dinner alone instead of waiting for my Lord to come back."

With that, the bodyguard quietly opened his eyes and looked at Xiao TIANYAO. Seeing that Xiao TIANYAO was still serious and expressionless, he said in a hurry: "Lord, I've finished my humble job, and I'll leave."

The bodyguard stepped back, but he was stopped by Xiao TIANYAO just two steps away: "wait a minute!"

"Yes, Lord." The bodyguard stood upright, but did not dare to look at Xiao TIANYAO.

"Stay out tonight. No one is allowed in or out." Xiao TIANYAO got up and did not even clean up the fold on the table. He just put the two dishes back into the food box, carried them in his hand and went out.

"Wang, Wang Ye?" Looking at the king Xiao who passed by him, the bodyguard was silly.

Is he, he, he wrong? Is the prince leaving his official business and going back to the palace to have dinner with the princess?

"Keep watch. No one is allowed to go in and out except the king." There are a lot of important folds in it, one third of which he has given instructions. Before he publishes them, they should not fall into anyone's hands.

"I'll take the orders." The bodyguard "pa" stands well, makes a military salute, turns around and stands behind Xiao TIANYAO, goes out with Xiao TIANYAO, and then locks the door.

"What can I do for you, Lord?" The little eunuch, who was not far away, saw Xiao TIANYAO come out and asked.

"Lead the way, I want to go out of the palace." Xiao TIANYAO cold mouth, nothing to take over the food box of the little eunuch, himself in the hand.

No matter how anxious he was, he would not show it at this moment. For the time being, he doesn't want to let people know how important Lin Chujiu is to him, which is too dangerous for him.

"Yes, yes." The little eunuch held a lantern and led the way quickly.

Soon, the little eunuch sent King Xiao out of the palace. Without waiting for the little eunuch to speak, King Xiao turned over and rode away with his food box.

No one can spy on Wang Xiao's every move in the room, but once he comes out of the room, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at his every move in the dark. As soon as king Xiao left, the news spread quietly that he was eager to return home with his food box.

"The bodyguard of King Xiao's house came to see him with a food box. Without saying a few words, King Xiao rushed out of the palace with the food box? What's in the box? "

"What is so important that King Xiao should leave his official business and go back to his office?"

"The food boxes are not ordinary things. The people in King Xiao's residence use food boxes to hide people's eyes and ears."

……

That night, countless people lost sleep because of the food box in King Xiao's hand. They guessed a lot of things, and even guessed that the food box was filled with jade seals, but no one guessed that there was food in it.

Lin Chujiu didn't know that it was just two small dishes, which made most of the people in the capital move, and even some guilty people began to feel uneasy
