Prince Be Careful: Concubine is Prickly - Chapter 401
Chu Chengxun’s lips raised a bitter smile, “if I were in the past, she would be more boring. Why should I make her uncomfortable. It’s the emperor’s intention for her to follow me back to the palace. It’s not about our friendship. It’s two different things. I’m still in love.”
“Lord, you said that you would not be involved in the affairs between the emperor and the queen since then.” Xiyu said anxiously, “if you think like this, you will never have yourself again. Before you met the queen, you were not like this at all.”
“I know, you don’t have to remind me.” Chu Chengxun rubbed his temples. “Go and talk to the queen. I think she always looks disappointed. It’s not good for the Dragon fetus in her belly. It’s also good to let her relieve her boredom.”
Xiyu was embarrassed. “The slave is just your guard. How can he go and talk to the queen? The king might as well say it himself. How embarrassing it is for the slave to stand in front of the queen.”
“There’s nothing embarrassing about this. It’s just a few words. I don’t want you to sit next to her all the time.” Chu Chengxun glanced at him narrowly. “You think about the lay in your heart. So you don’t want to pass?”
“Although the slave has been thinking about the lay, he has not indulged in it. The king will never make fun of the slave anymore,” Xi Yu pursed his lips into a line. “A scholar’s delay can still be taken off, and a woman’s delay can’t be taken off. But how can it become a scholar’s delay when you get to the Lord?”
“You’ve read books with me for several days these days, and the poems on your mouth are also sentence by sentence,” Chu Chengxun stared at him reluctantly. “Since you have good control, wait for the monk in the room. I’ll go and ask the queen first.”
Although Xue ronghua looked at the flowers in the garden, she knew that Xiang Wang was talking to Xi Yu. Even if she didn’t carefully hear what they were talking about, she was mostly talking about herself. She sighed secretly in her heart and saw Xiang Dynasty coming by.
“I think you’ve been depressed recently. It’s better to take you out to play. Recently, a troupe came in Kyoto. It hasn’t finished for seven days. Why don’t I take you out to have a look and take it as entertainment.”
“I don’t really want to go out of the prime minister’s mansion. I’m not interested in things in Kyoto,” Xue ronghua added. “My stomach is beating day by day. Some don’t want to move. I’ll just sit in your palace. The outside world is not so wonderful. The spring is in your yard.”
Chu Chengxun nodded, and the smile on his lips stiffened.
Liu Yuan lifted one curtain with one hand and looked at the endless crowd outside. It seemed that they were all going to one place. She asked in some doubt, “what day is it today? Why do I see people outside like they are rushing to the market? I don’t know what I’m doing?”
“They should have gone to the opera. The opera team has been open for several days since they entered Kyoto. I also went to listen to it once, but I really can’t understand what the people above are singing. I haven’t been there since,” Feihong looked out of the window. “If you are interested, you can listen to it. There are some meanings, but some local dialect can’t understand.”
“I’ve never been interested in singing and acting. It’s just that I don’t listen. It’s too troublesome to squeeze with so many people,” Liu Yuan raised his handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead and a sneer on his lips. “I don’t think I’ve been in the palace for so long. The king wants to talk about me behind my back.”
“How could it be? The prime minister has been taking care of the empress. There is no time to gossip about the lay people,” Feihong looked at her with some hesitation. “The lay people seem to have a prejudice against the prime minister all the time. Is it too harsh to the prime minister?”
“You are the handmaid beside the queen. As I can see, the emperor and the queen are just taking advantage of the king’s persistent feelings for the queen. The queen refused, but the emperor resisted and sent them out of the palace, and they can spare no effort to make use of them when they are in trouble. It can also be seen that the king is The fish under the blade, “Liu Yuan couldn’t help humming coldly,” it’s just one willing to beat and one willing to suffer. It’s no use for me to say more sour words here. How the king Xiang is his own business has nothing to do with me. ”
Feihong frowned more and more tightly and hurriedly said, “lay, you must not talk about the emperor and the queen. This is no good. If others hear it, they will say that lay is disrespectful to the emperor and the queen.”
“There’s nothing to say. I’ll talk about it here. The queen now has dragon seed in her belly. She still needs to take good care of it,” Liu Yuan rubbed her eyebrows and sighed faintly. “Remember to remind me later. Remember to go to her house several times. If something happens to the Dragon seed, I can’t afford it.”
Feihong said with a faint smile: “it’s best for the lay to think so. The empress thinks of the lay very much. She has asked me several times. I told her that the lay is very good now and will come to see you in a few days.”
Liu Yuan turned his eyes and said softly, “have you ever been back to the palace?”
“Naturally, I went back to the palace to help the queen get the book several times. Why did the monk ask about this?”
Liu Yuan pursed his lips. “I just want to know that Xu Hanfei should still be in the palace. He hasn’t been out of the palace at this time.”
“Naturally, Xu Hanfei is still in the palace. His current status can be compared with that of many ministers. The emperor often takes him with him and attaches great importance to him,” Feihong said with a smile. “He was brought into the palace by a lay. The emperor must be very grateful to the lay.”
Liu Yuan raised an imperceptible bitter smile on his lips, “that’s good. I’m afraid the emperor doesn’t think much of him.”
Gu fan rolled up his sleeve, put a chopstick in the plate Linglong had just brought out, and chewed it carefully. “This dish is good. You can make it for me in the palace in the future.”
Linglong patted off her chopsticks with one hand and covered the steaming dishes. “You can’t steal any more. This is for the emperor. If you move your chopsticks again, I’ll make a new dish. Besides, I’m not from the imperial dining room. How can I cook for you?”
“It’s not up to me where people cook. Your craftsmanship is so good. I not only want you to cook for me, but also want you to come back to Xirong with me. Then you will be my private imperial chef and seal a senior official for you.”
Linglong was startled and hurriedly pushed away. “That’s not good. I’m from the state of Qin. I can only stay in the palace. I can’t go anywhere else. If others know, I must say it about me.”
“Who cares if those gossipy women talk about the length of people behind their back? Do they even have to interrupt where they go,” Gu Gai pouted discontentedly. “You say you are a free man, where can’t you go? Besides, if you have made a marriage, you can’t go since you haven’t made a marriage.”
“I’m one year younger than you. I haven’t made any marriage, but someone will always propose marriage in the future. The empress said she would make a matchmaker for me,” Linglong sipped her lips. “I’m not in a hurry now. I’ll talk about it later. It’s important to make a banquet for the emperor first.”
“What is the point of kissing? Don’t you marry the man you like? Why do you want the queen to show you the marriage,” Gu Gu blinked strangely. “Don’t you have a man you like? If you marry a man you don’t like, how painful it will be.”
Linglong looked at her silently for a long time and asked softly, “Princess Gu came to make peace. Naturally, she likes the emperor very much. Otherwise, how can she marry the emperor?”
Gu Gu was stunned and turned pale for a few minutes. After a long time, he replied: “I came to make peace for the country. It’s just that I have no feelings. As long as it’s for Xirong, it doesn’t matter if I make this sacrifice.”
“But the future life will be very painful. After all, it’s with people you don’t like,” a trace of abnormality flashed through Linglong’s eyes. “The princess likes Chu Changqing. Why does Prince Chu clearly love the princess and can send the people he loves here? Aren’t the hearts of the princess and Prince Chu sad?”
“Xirong is always the most important,” Gu’s eyes suddenly widened, and his tone couldn’t help raising a few points. “How do you know I like Chu Changqing? I thought we both pretended well in front of others.”
“Things like love can’t be covered. You and childe Chu can see it in their eyes. I can know it, but I don’t know much about others,” Linglong said in a low voice. “If the princess wants to marry the emperor, don’t be seen by others.”
Gu Gu’s pupils tightened. “Aren’t you the cousin of the king of Jin, and you can also be attached to the emperor? Now that you know about Chu Changqing and me, don’t you intend to tell the emperor?”
“There’s nothing to say. I’m in your palace now,” Linglong winked at her. “Don’t worry, I’ll never tell others, but you said that I’m afraid I won’t be happy with people you don’t like. You should also pay attention.”
“I’ve seen those concubines in my father’s imperial palace. They are as lonely as snow. I’ll live like this in the future,” Gu’s eyes slowly darkened. “I expected it before I got married. I’ll come to an end after going through it year by year in the imperial palace.”
“The mother’s fetal image is very stable, and the power of soul taking doesn’t seem to exist,” Liu Yuan carefully injected three needles on her wrist, which really hasn’t changed. “As long as you remember to drink tocolysis medicine on time, you will be fine in the future. Maybe you can get along with the emperor more after giving birth to a child.”
Xue ronghua’s eyes were red and almost burst into tears. She stroked her bulging lower abdomen with her mother’s tenderness at the bottom of her eyes. “I just want my child to be born well, healthy, and nothing else.”
“Your child will be safe,” Liu Yuan blinked. “Do you still feel uncomfortable? Tell me at this time, and I’ll fill your medicine right away.”
“There’s no other place,” Xue ronghua took her hand. “Don’t return to the dream Temple tonight. Stay here. The king has prepared the room, and Xi Yu has prepared the wine and dishes. I haven’t seen you for a long time, and no one speaks to me here.”
