Male God Strategy System - Chapter 288

Xia Houyu is already 27 years old this year. In ancient times, I’m afraid her son was old enough to take scientific examinations. But Xia Houyu not only had no children, but also no imperial concubine.

5、 Seven or nine princes already have positive concubines, and there are many side concubines and concubines. All the women around them have been carefully selected, but when the emperor married other sons, he didn’t even think about the existence of the three princes, which is really sad.

But Chen Jia has to thank the old emperor for his confusion. Otherwise, how could he have the opportunity to flirt with such a pure Xia Houyu?

Just fell down and the two people got closer. Xia Houyu could blush and heartbeat for most of the day. It’s really interesting.

Chen Jia quietly peeked at him for a while until Xia Houyu recovered his former peace. Xia Hou Yu barely finished the rehabilitation course on the first day, and there was a weak sweat on his forehead. Because of the consumption of exercise, his appetite was hard to get better. Without Chen Jia staring at him, he took the initiative to eat a clean bowl of rice.

In the evening, Xia Houyu was taking a medicine bath and saw Zhong Liqing turning out some thick cloth from the cabinet. She didn’t know what she was doing against the candlelight. Unable to look over, he had to ask, “what are you doing?”

Chen Jia’s head didn’t care to lift it. She picked out the cotton thread and said, “I’ll make you a protective device so that I don’t have to rush to the bottom to make a humanoid meat pad next time I fall.”

When Xia Houyu thought of his embarrassment during the day, he had to blush again. Fortunately, the water in the bath bucket was the warmest and steaming, so that others could not see his blush.

Chen Jia buried her head, compared the shape drawn on the paper, and began to cut the cloth. She was absorbed. She didn’t notice at all. Xia Houyu had seen him for a long time.

Sewing is really a technical job. If there were no maids around, Chen Jia wouldn’t remember to do it himself. He is a big man. He has no talent for doing such fine work. His stitches are crooked and he can hardly see anyone.

After sewing a pair of knee pads, Chen Jia looked at the hourglass and exclaimed, “it’s time. Why doesn’t the third prince come out?”

Xia Houyu just regained her consciousness and answered.

“Wait a minute.” Chen Jia leaned over to try the water temperature, frowned and said, “the water is cold, aren’t you very cold? I’ll fetch another bucket of hot water to warm my body and come out again.” after that, she put her knee pads everywhere and hurried out of the door.

When Xia Hou Yu waited for him to go away, he reached out and picked up the knee pad to see it. He was afraid that the water on his hand might wet it, and deliberately wiped his hand on the cloth towel.

This pair of knee pads was not surprised at all. The stitches were sparse and the cut cloth was crooked. However, Xia Hou Yu felt warm after touching it twice. All along, the clothes he got in the harem were only given by the Secretary of the interior according to the rules of the prince, and he didn’t see anything new. He never got any handmade clothes from the queen and the emperor.

Unexpectedly, for the first time in his life, what others sewed for him came from Zhong Liqing, and it was so ugly.

Xia Houyu looked for a moment and put things back in place before Zhong Liqing came back, but the radian of the corner of her mouth couldn’t hide. Fortunately, when Zhong Liqing came back, he just buried himself in adding hot water and didn’t see it.

She warmed her body again and came out of the bath barrel. Time passed a little. Chen Jia noticed that Xia Houyu’s fingers were wrinkled. He is secretly annoyed that he can’t be so careless next time. Xia Houyu’s body is too weak, followed by skin blistering and wrinkling. If she gets cold after soaking for too long, or the drug is too heavy, it will lead to unimaginable consequences.

Because of this episode, Chen Jia blamed herself for not sleeping well all night. The next day, he endured a doze, drove out a pair of rough protective gear and gave it to Xia Houyu.

Xia Houyu was picky in her eyes. In fact, she was already happy and put on her protective gear happily. It looks ugly, but the size fits unexpectedly. Knees, elbows, ankles and other places happen to be tightly wrapped, so it is easy not to be injured again.

The days are spent in rehabilitation and medicine bath. In the second half of the twelfth lunar month, the atmosphere in the Imperial Palace finally became lively. Even the remote Qianyi hall could hear the sound of joy. Chen Jiashen secretly went out of the palace before the new year and asked his eldest brother to buy some new year goods for him.

Things are not expensive, but they are better than fresh. When Chen Jia took out the oil paper bag in her arms, Xia Houyu rarely showed a little excitement.

“This is the daughter of Xinghua building, Hong?”

“Yes, but you can’t drink too much,” Chen Jia said.

The excitement on Xia Houyu’s face faded. She touched the wine bottle strangely, opened the cork and smelled it. She said, “I often hear people in the palace say that the wine in xinghualou is unique in the world. Among them, daughter Hong is not easy to open the altar before New Year’s day. I didn’t expect I could have a drink in my lifetime.”

Chen Jiawen’s eyes are dim. Xia Houyu is clearly the third prince. Why do you live worse than a child of an ordinary family in the capital?

Xia Houyu silk didn’t care about that. She took the wine cup and poured it carefully. Just halfway down, Zhong Liqing stopped him: “stop, don’t fall again.”

Xia Houyu stared at the wine cup, which was not much bigger than the fingernail, frowned and said, “it’s only half a cup. I can’t even drink a mouthful…”

Chen Jia couldn’t help saying that he confiscated the wine pot in his hand, closed the lid and said, “when you get well, you can drink it open, but not now. If it weren’t for the sake of the new year, you wouldn’t be allowed to drink at all.”

Xia Houyu couldn’t help sighing. Holding a small cup, she took a sip and tasted a trace of wine. She didn’t taste it thoroughly, but she was reluctant to drink the rest.

Chen Jia looked at his tangled appearance like a child. She rarely smiled for a moment and said, “the third prince also has such a side.”

In the evening, a decree came from the Qianyi hall, saying that the third prince was invited to attend a family dinner on New Year’s Eve.

Xia Hou Yu accepted the order without expression.

Chen Jia looked at the Edict and said, “I didn’t expect that Qianyi hall could receive the edict.”

Xia Hou Yu replied, “most of it depends on the face of the empress.”

Chen Jiawen’s speech was clear when she thought about it. Although the imperial concubine Yin is in power in the harem, she is not the main room after all. At the family banquet on New Year’s Eve, the queen can sit side by side with the emperor on the throne. Concubines with a little bit in the palace can be invited to participate in the banquet, and the princes will not fall. If the queen sits in the seat of the mistress, but the Queen’s own son, the third prince, is not present, it’s a little unreasonable.

Chen Jia said, “since we are going to the banquet, we still have to prepare more or less.”

Xia Hou Yu replied, “it’s just enough to show your face in court clothes. You don’t need too much preparation.”

“I’m ready. That’s not what I meant.” Chen Jia said, fiddling with his bottles and cans, found a porcelain box for a moment, and said, “how many pairs of eyes in the palace are staring at you, and how many of them are looking forward to your death. No one can know that the third prince’s body is getting better.”

Xia Houyu’s eyes turned and flashed a trace of ruthlessness. After staying in the Qianyi hall for a long time, he almost lost his vigilance.

Chen Jia opened the things in her hand and said, “this is a kind of medicine powder. It is non-toxic and tasteless. It will make people look bad when applied to his face. In addition, the third prince’s physique has improved recently, and his posture has improved. Although it’s not true to be wrapped in his robe, he still has to pretend to be bent just in case.”

Xia Hou Yu nodded, “I understand.”
