Prince Be Careful: Concubine is Prickly - Chapter 402
Liu Yuan thought about it and nodded, “OK. Feihong told me a lot. He said you’ve been waiting for me to live with you for a few more days. Why don’t I stay tonight? It’s really boring to see you here. I can’t talk to Xiang Wang and them.”
“That’s great.” Xue ronghua smiled at her. “That Feihong is still serving you wholeheartedly. Do you still like her?”
“It would be nice to have someone to serve me. What’s more, she came out from the queen like Feihong,” Liu Yuan glanced at the door. “You don’t have a maid around here. I can’t use Feihong in guimeng temple. Why don’t you let her come to you. It’s also good for you.”
“I don’t have anything. It’s just that Feihong doesn’t come. She takes good care of me in the Imperial Palace, but I hope you can come and see me more.” Xue ronghua bit his lower lip and wondered. “But I don’t want to come over more because of your relationship with the prime minister and Xiyu. Just do it yourself.”
“What can I do with Xiangwang and Xiyu? It’s just a thing of the past. I don’t think much at all,” Liu Yuan touched her pale wrist. His eyes were full of worry. “I’ll talk to Xiang Wang. Tell him to ask the small kitchen to make more blood for you when preparing meals. I don’t think you look good on both sides of your cheeks. You should eat more red dates and so on.”
Xue ronghua nodded slightly and smiled at the corners of his lips. “You’re right. I don’t pay much attention to some places. The king doesn’t know much about these, so he still looks forward to you more often.”
Liu Yuan pursed his lips and said with a smile, “since I promised the emperor, I will naturally take good care of you, whether outside the palace or in the palace.”
Chu Zongge took a sip of wine, glanced at the banquet with a faint look, and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips. “Princess Gu is really intentional. As a Xirong person, it must have taken a lot of heart to make some dishes of the state of Qin.”
Chu Changqing knew as soon as he heard it. He hurriedly squeezed out a smile and said, “the emperor praised it. You have to taste it carefully to know if it took some time.”
General Kur looked at the emperor with a smile and picked up chopsticks. A trace of embarrassment flashed between his eyebrows and eyes. This dish with color, aroma and taste must have been made after learning cooking for many years. The cover invited by the princess was too conspicuous. I wonder if the emperor will directly expose the princess’s plot.
Chu Zongge took a quail egg with chopsticks and chewed it in his mouth for a while. Although he had long expected that Gu Gu would never cook by himself, the taste was really good. He should not be a person in the imperial dining room. There was no delicacy of Royal dishes, but some smoke and fire people’s taste.
“Yes, I’m impressed by the princess’s craftsmanship,” Chu Zongge said with a smile. “If Xirong’s daughter really goes up to the hall and down to the kitchen, I just admire it. Please invite Princess Gu to have dinner with us.”
Chu Changqing was relieved and said to the palace man, “please come out. The emperor wants her to have dinner with us.”
Gu Gu hid behind the door and listened to their words. The corners of his lips curled up because of the success of his little trick. He quickly pretended that he had just finished his work and came out of the back kitchen. Ying Ying smiled and saluted to the emperor. “I don’t know if the dishes at today’s banquet meet the emperor’s taste.”
“Naturally, I like it very much. It’s not the same as the meals in the palace. I haven’t eaten such home-made dishes for a long time. It won’t be too extravagant and wasteful for just a few of us,” Chu Zongge picked his eyebrows. “Does the princess know how to cook the dishes of the state of Qin?”
“No, I could only cook Xirong dishes. Later, when I learned the emperor’s taste, I specially wanted others to learn how to cook Qin dishes,” Gu Gu smiled with a low eyebrow. “If the emperor likes it, it won’t waste my mind.”
“I invited a good master,” Chu Zongge said with a faint smile, “come and have dinner with me. This is your own dish. It’s really unreasonable if you don’t try it yourself.”
Gu Gu’s eyes were full of light. After having a drink with the emperor, she also moved her chopsticks and tried a few. She kept smiling on her lips, but she sighed in her heart that Kang Linglong’s skill in making a banquet today was even better than that day. When she ate this delicious food, she almost showed her original expression.
Xu Hanfei was not interested in these dishes, but just drank a few mouthfuls of wine, casually moved his chopsticks to deal with it. His eyes drifted to the person opposite, and his eyes immediately became deep.
The emperor must have meant it. Knowing that their brothers were sworn enemies, he asked them to sit opposite each other at every banquet. Chu Changqing flashed a shadow of evil at the bottom of his eyes and picked up his smile again. It was not the emperor’s intention. He picked up his glass and said to Xu Hanfei: “Brother, I used to treat you coldly. Now I want to give you a glass of wine.”
Xu Hanfei was stunned. He glanced at the emperor gently, then picked up the wine glass and smiled at his lips. “Yes, brother, I must drink this wine. If I have a chance in the future, I’ll take some pots of good wine to my brother’s palace and have a good drink with my brother.”
“Well, I really have to wait for you,” Chu Changqing’s eyes slowly darkened. “The princess doesn’t know whether today’s dishes are in line with my brother’s taste. How can I see that my brother doesn’t eat well?”
As soon as the problem came out, everyone’s eyes focused on Xu Hanfei. Seeing that his expression was wrong, Gu Gu asked curiously, “is it that childe Xu really doesn’t like to eat? Is my cooking bad?”
The emperor has praised it. How can he say it now? What’s more, he hasn’t tried chopsticks at all. Xu Hanfei frowned, raised his lips and said with a smile: “the princess is too worried. I’m very picky about my taste. I think the princess’s dishes are very suitable. How can I say it’s bad? It’s just that my body has become heavier recently. I still have to control my appetite, otherwise I’ll look like something. The emperor won’t be able if I’m not optimistic about it.”
Gu Gu covered his mouth and said with a smile, “it’s true, but it’s nothing to grow some meat. I saw some gloomy color between the childe’s eyebrows and eyes. I thought it was childe’s lovesickness.”
Chu Changqing looked at him unfathomably, “I suddenly remembered that my brother’s master had left the palace not long ago. I’m afraid my brother was thinking about her, but my brother still needs to be independent when the master led him into the door to practice.”
Xu Hanfei took a deep look at him. “What my brother said is that my father did very well in those years. He led my brother into the door and taught for a long time. Finally, he came to the state of Qin. It seems that my father’s long cherished wish has been achieved.”
After listening to the quarrel between the two brothers, Chu Zongge curved his lips and said with a smile, “it’s not important. Don’t talk too much. Resident Liu Yuan went out of the palace because he didn’t adapt to the habits of the palace. What do you think of your quarrel? You’d better eat quickly. Don’t let the princess cook tonight’s food for nothing. It’s delicious.”
Gu Gu smiled and lowered his head shyly.
Chu Chengxun looked at her cold side face. After brewing again and again, he still opened his mouth, “how’s the Queen’s disease? Does it matter? Did you prescribe a prescription for her after you saw it?”
“What prescription? I don’t understand. The empress’s good body is about to prescribe medicine. You see her too fragile. Besides, the empress will avoid the erosion of dementology when she leaves the emperor, and her body will not weaken,” Liu Yuan said with a faint smile, “You’ve taken good care of her. At first glance, you know she’s doing her best. She doesn’t look well now. Just eat more blood tonic things. There’s no problem in other places.”
“That’s good,” Chu Chengxun calmed down a little. “How are you doing in guimeng temple? I didn’t see you come to see her after the queen came, but the queen is still thinking of you every day.”
Liu Yuan tilted his head and stared at him coldly. “I’m the doctor next to the queen, not her maid. Does she want to run somewhere, and I want to run somewhere? I came out of the palace just to rest for a few days and listen to what you said. When I returned to guimeng temple, I had to think of the queen quickly, but just work in a different place.”
“I didn’t say that. Don’t think about it. How can you change the taste when you talk,” Chu Chengxun lowered his voice. “I just look at the queen and have no one to accompany me, so I think of you coming. Isn’t the queen the same as me? She wants you to stay in the palace with her.”
“I won’t stay. Didn’t I get tired of watching things between you, the emperor and the queen in Duan Wang’s house? I’m tired if you don’t bother me,” Liu Yuan snorted coldly, “I am different from you. You are not only the emperor’s clever minister, but also the Queen’s infatuated guardian. I am free. I will come only when the queen is unwell. I will not accompany you in ordinary days.”
Chu Chengxun frowned, “you treat me as usual. I think this is my image in your heart.”
“What else is it like? What are you still thinking about?” Liu Yuan hooked his lips. “You know, I’m not interested in you. The queen is in good health now. Even if she doesn’t come, it’s enough. You don’t need to be with her every day. Of course, you just think differently. After all, the things in your heart are different, and I’m too lazy to say more.”
Chu Chengxun’s lips twitched a few times and said softly, “I know what you mean, but I can’t do it anymore. I won’t do it again this time. After the Queen’s Prince is born, I’ll leave Kyoto with Xiyu.”
“You don’t understand what I mean. I don’t want you to leave the emperor and the queen, nor do I want you to stop this wishful thinking, but that you don’t think I’m the same person as you. I don’t come and go like a pug,” said Liu Yuan, “It will be difficult for the emperor’s relatives to leave Kyoto. I bet you won’t leave. It’s just talking. When the Queen’s Prince has something to do in the future, you will still be obedient. After all, it’s a minister. How can you refute the emperor’s meaning, don’t you?”
Chu Chengxun’s eyes darkened, “no matter what you say, now the Queen’s body is the most important.”
