Tyrant teases cats daily
Chapter 38 Your Highness has enlightened.
So, when Xiao Shunzi went to the study to report the meal menu, Zhou Xiuyao raised his head and saw Xiao Shunzi lowered his eyes, his face was red even to the neck, and he frowned: "What's going on?"
Xiao Shunzi dared to raise his head and say that he had spied on a little secret that His Highness and Xu Ban read. What if he didn't agree with one of them and was silenced by His Highness?
Xiao Shunzi hastily shook his head: "Reporting to Your Highness, this servant just met Xu Bandu. Xu Bandu seemed to have twisted his waist, and his walking was uncomfortable. This servant is thinking about whether to... combine today's lunch with dinner." The meal for the meal is also prepared lighter, and then invite the imperial doctor to come and take a look?"
Zhou Xiuyao thought about it carefully, it seems that when the little thing was frightened by him, he did hit it, but it shouldn't be heavy, otherwise the little thing with thin skin and tender flesh would have screamed a long time ago.
Zhou Xiuyao shook his head: "No need, just bring a bottle of traumatic medicine later."
Xiao Shunzi immediately covered his mouth, because he was kneeling and lowered his head, so he couldn't see the excitement in his eyes, so he restrained his voice and said: "Yes, yes... the slave knows."
Ah, he understands, understands, His Highness wants to read it to Xu Ban himself, why is he so stupid, he still has to go to the imperial doctor, with His Highness here, what kind of imperial doctor does he need?
Zhou Xiuyao didn't know what Xiao Shunzi was imagining, so he waved his hand: "If you have nothing to do, step back."
Xiao Shunzi: "The meal..."
Xiao Shunzi took care of all Zhou Xiuyao's meals. Since he used it, he naturally trusted him: "You can figure it out yourself."
He didn't know much about these either. Apart from knowing what the little thing liked to eat, the rest of the reasonable matching still depended on Xiao Shunzi.
However, that little thing likes to eat meat every day, so it's not bad to eat light one or two times.
Xiao Shunzi made up his mind and felt that he had guessed correctly. Since His Highness agreed, he went to prepare.
It's just that Xu Bandu needs to eat light food, but His Highness doesn't need it. How can His Highness eat light food after working so hard day and night?That needs a lot of supplementation.
When Xiao Shunzi came out of the study, he covered his face and his eyes were shining. There were already countless recipes in his mind, which were read by Xu Ban, His Highness's... The ones Xu Ban read can be supplemented in two days, otherwise, it will affect the Your Highness's...how good is it.
So, when it was time for lunch, Xu Jinwen looked at the meals on the table and divided them into two extremes. On his side, the soup was clear and watery, and he couldn't even see a star of oil...
Forget it, he glanced at Zhou Xiuyao, and suddenly complained: steamed sea bass, braised mutton, stewed chicken with angelica, plus a stewed soft-shelled turtle soup...
Xu Jinwen: "..."
Probably because his resentful little eyes were too present, Zhou Xiuyao didn't care at first, but when he lowered his head, he also saw the two extremes. Just as he was about to ask Xiao Shunzi behind him what was going on, he remembered Xiao Shunzi's previous report , The little thing sprained his waist, so he should have a light meal or two.
Zhou Xiuyao looked at Xu Jinwen's eyes looking at the big fish and big meat on his side, and explained in a warm voice: "You sprained your waist, so eat something light for this meal, and I will give you some medicine when I go back to the dormitory next time."
"Ah?" Xu Jinwen was taken aback, if Zhou Xiuyao hadn't said it, he would have forgotten it at all, he twisted, but it hurt a little, "No, no need..."
If he had to choose between food and taboo, he definitely wanted to choose the first one.
Zhou Xiuyao couldn't understand his thoughts, and looked at him expressionlessly: "Eat obediently."
Xu Jinwen was finally defeated by Zhou Xiuyao's threat, and had a tasteless lunch.
Xiao Shunzi, who was standing not far away, watched this scene and clenched his fists excitedly: "Look, look, he really has hot eyes."
Xu Jinwen slumped his head and ate a lunch that tasted like wax. As a carnivore, eating grass...is not his style.
But... who made him just a leg? If the master speaks, the leg has to listen.
After lunch, Xu Jinwen obediently followed Zhou Xiuyao to the dormitory. Xiao Shunzi, who was not allowed to follow, held onto the door frame and looked at the two figures, one in front and one behind, wanting to see through: Your Highness...you lack a servant to guard the door!
Xu Jinwen listlessly followed Zhou Xiuyao to the bedroom, and when he reached the bed, he stood up obediently, but then he thought how could he ask the master to apply medicine to his legs?
"Your Highness, why don't I do it myself." Xu Jinwen pointed his head over.
Zhou Xiuyao glanced at him: "Then just deal with it out of fear of pain?"
Since I bumped into it, I'm afraid there will be bruises, so I don't rub it open, what should I do? "Lie down on the bed and lift up your clothes."
Seeing that the resistance was futile, Xu Jinwen could only take off his outer robe casually, threw it aside, lifted up the inner garment of his jacket, exposed half of his back, and lay down on the bed.
Zhou Xiuyao approached with the medicine bottle, and sure enough, he saw that it was a little green, but it was not serious.
Zhou Xiuyao sat down in front of Xu Jinwen, first poured the potion into his palm, kneaded it and warmed it up, before covering it with his palm, he said: "Hold on."
When Xu Jinwen was mischievous when he was a child, he bumped into many places, and it didn't hurt at all. However, he probably didn't know that the people who rubbed him were all slaves. They didn't dare to use force, but Zhou Xiuyao was different. He rubbed it down with one palm...
As soon as Xiao Shunzi packed up and passed the inner hall, he heard Xu Bandu's hissing "Ah" from far away.
Xiao Shunzi stood up instantly in fright: "!!!"
Then I remembered something and couldn't help scratching the wall: Your Highness is really... so merciless!
In the inner hall, if Xu Jinwen didn't remember that it was the crown prince rubbing his waist behind him, he really wanted to kick him away, it was really... so painful.
His waist is about to break!Zhou Xiuyao frowned, this is too delicate, he only used [-]% of his strength, just watched Xu Jinwen biting the corner of his quilt and looking at him with tears and resentment, he relaxed half of his strength again, waiting to rub the bruise away After that, Zhou Xiuyao originally wanted to let go of his hand, but he caught a glimpse of the young man's slender waist inadvertently, and then looked down...
Zhou Xiuyao's movements suddenly slowed down.His expression was dazed for a while, until Xu Jinwen felt the heat and pain in his lower back, so he couldn't hold back, and wailed: "Your Highness, can you call Xiao Shunzi in, can you change someone?"
If he rubs it any further, his waist will be broken, Your Highness, you will have no companion to read from now on.
Zhou Xiuyao withdrew his hand reluctantly, stood up abruptly, turned around, but his mind was full of Xu Jinwen's waist and...
He slowly picked up the veil and wiped his palms, but the temperature could not be lowered.
Zhou Xiuyao walked out of the inner hall almost quickly, leaving only one sentence: "Gu will go out of the palace later, and I will come back to accompany you for dinner. Remember to go to the study to practice calligraphy. I will check when I come back."
Xu Jinwen groaned silently, threw himself on the brocade quilt, bowed his head, and answered listlessly, but fell asleep quickly without heart.
And Zhou Xiuyao walked all the way outside the hall, and when the cool wind blew, he felt that the heat on his face had subsided a lot, and he calmed down.
Xu Jinwen obediently went to practice calligraphy in the afternoon, but he ate too much water for lunch, so he was hungry early, so as soon as Xu Jinwen finished practicing calligraphy, he eagerly looked forward to dinner.
Just waiting for the dinner to come, Xu Jinwen looked at still grazing grass on the left and eating meat on the right, Xu Jinwen: "..." I really want to crush Xiao Shunzi to death, where is the meat!What about his meat!
After all, he is a patient!sick!
Xu Jinwen didn't dare to open his mouth, so he looked at Zhou Xiuyao with his small eyes, but Zhou Xiuyao, who was very sensitive to his eyes in the past, turned a blind eye to him this night!He was even a little absent-minded, and didn't even notice that he drank the soft-shelled turtle soup that he hated the most.
Xu Jinwen wondered: Could it be that His Highness encountered difficulties?
If you have any difficulties, come to the companion, and the companion will solve it for you, Your Highness.
Zhou Xiuyao didn't sense Xu Jinwen's brainwaves, he ate his dinner absent-mindedly, but what lingered in his mind was Xu Jinwen's after lunch...
Zhou Xiuyao frowned, feeling that he was really strange today.
I thought it would just pass by after lunch, but this situation lasted all afternoon.
After dinner, he used the excuse to go to the study to check Xu Jinwen's handwriting and left.
What Zhou Xiuyao didn't know was that after he left, Xu Jinwen finally couldn't bear to find fault with Xiao Shunzi.
Xu Jinwen blocked Xiao Shunzi in the corner of the hall. With a long hand to block it, he blocked Xiao Shunzi between his arm and the wall like a hooligan, lowered his eyes, looked at Xiao Shunzi who was shrinking his neck, and snorted coldly. One sound.
Xiao Shunzi was terrified and trembling: Could it be... the secret he knew was known by Xu Bandu?
Xu Ban read that this is to threaten first and then silence?
Xu Jinwen originally wanted to scare Xiao Shunzi, and asked him to give him some meat, and then he would become a pitiful little cabbage if he ate the bland vegetables and fish porridge.
Seeing Xiao Shunzi's frightened look now, his heart softened again, and he coughed softly: "Hey, Xiao Shunzi, do you have any opinion on me?"
Xiao Shunzi originally thought he had been discovered, but when he heard this sentence, he was stunned: "Ah? No, no, how dare a slave."
This is the default candidate for the future crown princess, his future master, how dare he?
Xu Jinwen approached, narrowing his eyes: "Really? Are you sure?"
Since Xu Jinwen entered the palace, all Xiao Shunzi saw was Xu Bandu who was laughing and joking, and this was the first time he saw Xu Bandu looking down at him with a sullen face, and silently swallowed: "Indeed, sure... "
No, he can't admit that he has found out that His Highness has put Xu Bandu on the couch, otherwise, if Xu Bandu is embarrassed to not let His Highness go to bed, what will His Highness do if he is angry with poor Xiao Shunzi?
Seeing Xiao Shunzi's guilt-ridden appearance, Xu Jinwen couldn't believe it even more, and he simply opened up and said, "If you have no objection to me, why did you prepare me with clear soup today? Tell me! Are you tomorrow? Are you going to prepare for this too?"
Xiao Shunzi said "ah", just about to nod, when he met Xu Jinwen's resentful eyes, he suddenly understood, got stuck immediately, struggled for a little bit, and then persuaded in a low voice: "Xu Bandu, it's not that the slave doesn't want to do it for you." It's kind of meaty, but...you know, your current body...is not suitable."
Xu Jinwen moved his head forward: "Nonsense! You just treat them differently!"
The more Xu Jinwen thought about it, the more resentful he became. He didn't want to be like His Highness. After all, His Highness is the master and he is the companion, but he is also the companion... Isn't the gap too big?
It's not a little bit different from the rich meal before.
Besides, "Your Highness used to mix meat and vegetables, but now! It's all meat! It's all! But I'm all vegetarian!"
He hadn't heard of it before, he hit his waist and couldn't eat any meat!The other party can eat them all!This is absolutely not normal!
As soon as Xiao Shunzi heard this, he thought about it, and then he understood that Xu Ban's feelings were unbalanced in his heart, but he couldn't say bluntly, His Highness is the one who contributes, so naturally he needs to make up, otherwise There is no successor, isn't this going to make Xu Bandu feel disgusted?
This will hurt His Highness's self-esteem.
So, Xiao Shunzi earnestly said: "Xu Bandu, you see, this slave has done something wrong, but Xiao Shunzi is also kind. Do you think that Your Highness has been too tired recently?"
Xiao Shunzi winked, his expression made Xu Jinwen frown: His eyes twitched?
Xiao Shunzi looked at Xu Jinwen's serious face, and continued: "Your Highness has worked so hard and worked so hard. Naturally, he needs to make up for it. Otherwise... this... is also good for Xu Bandu, right?"
Xu Jinwen frowned: Treat him well?Why did His Highness Bubu treat him so well?
However, he remembered that His Highness woke up earlier than chickens and went to bed later than dogs, bah!How could he use XX dog to compare with His Highness?This also proves that His Highness is indeed... much more miserable than him.
Xu Jinwen let go of his arms, pinched his chin and thought seriously, hmm... Thinking about myself and thinking about His Highness's hard work, it is indeed too much.
Xu Jinwen figured it out, changed his previous attitude, and patted Xiao Shunzi on the shoulder: "It's Xiao Shunzi's heart, and I blamed you. Thinking about it this way, I'm really incompetent as a companion... "
Xiao Shunzi quickly apologized: "Where is it, Xu Bandu is much more competent than Xiao Shunzi."
Xu Jinwen wandered back, thinking about eating grass, wanted to cry but fell asleep while warming the bed, that's all, went to find something delicious in his dream!
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao was busy in the study until midnight to finish his business, and then stepped on the silver light all over the floor to go back to the bedroom.
It's just that I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that it's very hot tonight, not only hot but also dry, so he tugged at the front of his clothes, and went back to the dormitory to take a look, and sure enough Xu Jinwen fell asleep again, with only half of his face exposed under the brocade quilt , Zhou Xiuyao looked at the slender white face exposed under the dark light, sleeping rosy white, and a flash of slender whiteness flashed in his mind.
Zhou Xiuyao felt that his body was even more uncomfortable, so he simply took off his outer robe, went to the apse to take a bath, then came back and lay down on the outside, and fell asleep.
It's just that Zhou Xiuyao slept until midnight, always feeling like an octopus was wrapped around his body, hot and dry, but he fell into a deep dream and couldn't wake up. There was a white fog in front of him, so foggy, he couldn't get out of it. don't go.
He frowned and walked forward step by step. A figure suddenly appeared in the groggy clouds and mist in front of him. He pushed away the white mist, revealing a boy's face. He suddenly grinned at him, and the clothes slipped on his shoulders With half of his shoulders exposed, he gave him a sideways glance, and his voice seemed to have a hook: "Your Highness~ come and play~"
Zhou Xiuyao woke up abruptly.
He opened his eyes abruptly, sweat was all over his head and face, and his robes were completely soaked. The sound of panting was extremely heavy in the dark night bedroom, and something was wrapped around his body.
When he looked down, he saw that there was another person in his arms. The boy didn't sleep well, and his hands and feet were wrapped around him tightly. Zhou Xiuyao raised his arms and supported his forehead. Feeling sick all over.
He lowered his head, looked somewhere, and frowned even more. Thinking of the previous dream scene, the frown deepened.
Zhou Xiuyao stripped off the hands and feet of the wrapped person, and stuffed them into the brocade quilt very lightly, then went to the apse and took a cold shower.
After Zhou Xiuyao finished washing, thinking of the dream, he turned in the direction of the inner hall, went to the study, and dealt with it casually all night.
The next day Xu Jinwen woke up and didn't see Zhou Xiuyao. He thought that the other party had gone to read early. Now he doesn't need to read early to follow him. He just needs to find the time to accompany the old master when he comes.
Xu Jinwen hurriedly tidied up and ended up going to the study room. It was rare to see that the study room was empty, Zhou Xiuyao was not there, and neither was Old Madam Yu.
Xu Jinwen came out of the study room in doubt, and saw the radiant Xiao Shunzi as soon as he turned the corner: "Where is your Highness? Why didn't Old Madam Yu give a lecture today?"
Xiao Shunzi's voice was brisk: "His Royal Highness has something to go to the imperial study today. Old Madam Yu did not enter the palace, but Xu Bandu is going to have breakfast?" Xu Jinwen shook his head: "No need! Wait for Your Highness to join us."
In the past, breakfast was what he was looking forward to, but when he thought of the clear soup and lack of water, Xu Jinwen was completely overwhelmed!Don't look forward to it!
Although looking at His Highness's breakfast, I was greedy, but at least I was able to pass the eye addiction.
But the wait lasted for two or three hours, Zhou Xiuyao had been waiting for lunch before he came back slowly, Xu Jinwen immediately went up to meet him, talking about something, why didn't he come back for breakfast, he was full!
The purpose is to tell Zhou Xiuyao that he is serious about eating, even if it is clear soup with little water, he will eat it!
In the end, after asking a few words, I realized that His Highness has lost his mind today?
Xu Jinwen thought, could it be that he has studied hard recently?
Sure enough, Xiao Shunzi was smart enough to make up for it in advance.
Zhou Xiuyao was indeed distracted, he felt that something was wrong with him, until he saw the lunch served by Xiao Shunzi again.
Thinking of those two meals yesterday, I feel thoughtful.
One time may be a coincidence, two days... then there is a problem.
After finishing his lunch, Zhou Xiuyao found a reason for Xu Jinwen to rest, and asked the hidden guard to carry Xiao Shunzi into the study.
When Xiao Shunzi was called in by Zhou Xiuyao, she was terrified. It was the first time she saw such a situation, and she knelt down as soon as she came in: "Your Highness, Your Highness... Did the slave do something wrong?"
Zhou Xiuyao narrowed his eyes, and stared at him condescendingly with deep pupils: "Xiao Shunzi, don't you want to explain the meals for these two days?"
Xiao Shunzi trembled: "No, no, no... no, it's still..."
Zhou Xiuyao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him: "Do you think Gu is stupid?"
Xiao Shunzi trembled, obviously feeling the strong threat in His Highness's words, and kowtowed: "Your Highness, Your Highness, forgive me, this slave is really just kind... This slave knows that I shouldn't spy on Your Highness's relationship with you. Xu Bandu's secret, but the slave... the slave promises not to reveal it!"
"The secret of Gu and Xu Bandu?" Zhou Xiuyao squinted, why didn't he know it?
Xiao Shunzi trembled even more: Is it really because of this?
"Forgive me, Your Highness. This servant no longer dares to make decisions on his own. It's just that His Highness let this servant figure out what to do. Thinking that His Highness has had too much sex with Xu Ban recently, this servant... decided to make up for His Highness. Slave Don’t dare again! Your Highness, let me spare this time!”
"House, affairs, past, many?!" Even Zhou Xiuyao was stunned by Xiao Shunzi's words, and then came back to his senses, and then connected Xiao Shunzi's actions in the past two days together with Xu Jinwen's words. The meal with clear soup and little water was his food supplement, his handsome face darkened, and he gritted his teeth: "Small, Shun, Zi!"
Xiao Shunzi was so frightened that he almost cried, and kept kowtowing: "Your Highness, please forgive me!"
It was the first time that Zhou Xiuyao was misunderstood by the people below. He squinted his eyes and pursed his thin lips coldly. Just as he was about to punish him as a warning to others, the scene of last night suddenly flashed through his mind, and his thin lips that were already parted were pursed again. , squinting, staring at Xiao Shunzi thoughtfully.
Xiao Shunzi wanted to cry, but he didn't have any tears. If he had known...if he had known, he wouldn't have made decisions on his own, but he was really just kind.
Just when Xiao Shunzi thought that he might not be able to avoid this catastrophe this time, he heard Zhou Xiuyao finally speak: "How did you know those things?"
Most people are afraid that even if they have a close relationship, they won't imagine it to this level, right?
Xiao Shunzi blushed, he could say that he was good at it, he made up a lot in private, and treasured a lot... huh?
Zhou Xiuyao's sharp eyes stared at Xiao Shunzi's reaction. Seeing this, he didn't care about these things all the time. Although he probably knew it, he had never experienced it, but it was the first time last night that he experienced it. It was inevitable for him to toss and turn, he thought about it all night, and vaguely guessed something, but he didn't understand it.
Seeing Xiao Shunzi's appearance now, he squinted his eyes: "It seems that you are still too busy. The books you read on weekdays are confiscated, and they will all be sent to the study room later. If you miss one book, you will bear the consequences."
Xiao Shunzi: "...Yes." No——his treasure.
But compared with Xiao Ming, Xiao Shunzi resolutely chose the latter. Xiao Shunzi almost pissed out of the study and returned to his room, and contributed all the treasures contained in a small box that was very tightly hidden. go up.
In the study, Xiao Shunzi knelt on the ground obediently, with red eyes: "Your Highness, this servant has treasured these for many years. I guarantee that I didn't keep any of them. This servant is really wrong."
Zhou Xiuyao hummed: "Okay, I will spare your life this time, if you do it again next time..."
Xiao Shunzi shook his head quickly: "Don't dare, don't dare!"
Zhou Xiuyao thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Also, you don't have to be harsh on Xu Bandu for dinner, Gu and Xu Bandu have no personal relationship, and he doesn't have to be taboo, understand?"
Xiao Shunzi's eyes widened: ... It's over, he actually misunderstood His Highness and Xu Bandu!
Strange, no wonder His Highness had that reaction just now!
It seems that in the future... I will be pure-hearted and ascetic, and I must stop thinking about it. I was almost snapped, and he even suspected that His Highness was a broken sleeve. He was wrong...
Xiao Shunzi went out frightened. In order to make up for the innocent Xu Bandu who had been abused three times, Xiao Shunzi tried his best to prepare a table of delicious food.
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao waited for Xiao Shunzi to leave, and then slowly opened the bookcase, frowning and looking at the old book on the top, but when he opened the first page and saw the illustration on it, Zhou Xiuyao Suddenly closed the book: "!!!"
In the following afternoon, Zhou Xiuyao didn't leave the study room, and even Xu Jinwen didn't open it when he came to accompany him to read. Xu Jinwen's study room was advanced, and he had nothing to do, so he just sat on the threshold of the palace with a straw in his mouth, and looked not far away. A nest of ants.
Xiao Shunzi came over at some point, and sat down cautiously on the side. Seeing Xu Jinwen looking over, he tilted his head and smiled apologetically: "Reading with Xu, are you hungry? Look, the past two days I'm hungry and thin, I'll make up for you at night."
Xu Jinwen: "!!!" Hey, there's nothing to be courteous about!If you are a woman, you are a thief!
Xu Jinwen jumped up and ran away, leaving Xiao Shunzi alone in the wind: T^T Xu Bandu really refused to forgive him!
Xiao Shunzi guessed wrong, and when Xu Jinwen saw the sumptuous dinner, he almost shook hands with Xiao Shunzi and said excitedly, "Shunzi, I will protect you from now on, my dear Shunzi, I have been greedy for the past two days." He is dead.
In the end, when Xu Jinwen had eaten and drank enough, he was almost dead. Zhou Xiuyao still didn't come out of the study. Xu Jinwen was still surprised, but when he thought of eating and drinking, he felt happy again.
When Zhou Xiuyao finally came out of the study with a solemn face, he glanced at Xu Jinwen with a rather complicated expression, and announced a decision to make Xu Jinwen collapse, and there is no need to let Xu Jinwen warm his bed in the future.
Xu Jinwen: QAQ has fallen out of favor...
Xu Jinwen was completely stunned by the news, so he naturally didn't notice that Zhou Xiuyao lost his steady steps when he left after speaking, and he couldn't notice the slightly red ears.
There is harmony on the side of Yuxin Palace, but on the other side of Wei Palace, the palace is covered by dark clouds.
Ever since Emperor Zhou personally summoned Zhou Yuwei and Jiang Ruwen and let them get married in three months, Zhou Yuwei didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on the surface, but when he arrived at Wei Palace, he almost overturned the whole bedroom.
He didn't want to marry that saltless girl at all, why?
Why did Lin Wang and the others marry delicate and noble daughters, whose status and status could help him.
He insisted on marrying a first-born daughter who had no name at all!She's still the Jiang family's daughter!
This simply cut off his retreat completely!
With such a person by his side, how could he plan?
Zhou Yuwei stayed in the dormitory all day and night without leaving the palace. Concubine Xu was in a hurry and came here in person.
Zhou Yuwei came out with a dazed expression on his face. Seeing Concubine Xu was also listless. His dream of becoming an emperor was probably about to die.
He even felt a little resentful, why wasn't the concubine mother so favored back then?
If the mother and concubine are still favored, if there is no pity for the noble concubine, then he is still the most beloved prince of the father.
As a result, now the emperor's attention is all on pity for the noble concubine and the prince in her stomach.
Concubine Xu's heart turned cold when she saw the light in Zhou Yuwei's eyes, but after all this was her prince, knowing that the other party was angry, she was reluctant to really say anything, she lowered her eyes, walked over, and sat on the chair blankly. Zhou Yuwei: "It's because the concubine mother is incompetent and can't win your father's heart. It's just... the emperor, the concubine mother is not young. The reason why she was favored back then was because of her face similar to Concubine Yu. Now there are There is nothing the concubine can do if she finds someone who is younger and more similar."
When Concubine Xu said this, her eyes were gloomy and sad.
This actually made Zhou Yuwei feel more guilty than saying it directly, but the guilt was only for a moment, but Zhou Yuwei didn't dare to show anything, gently lowered his eyes, and put his forehead on Concubine Xu's shoulder: "Mother Concubine, my son's heart It's hard, father, he... is too partial. It's fine to let Lao Jiu be the prince, but now there is a pity concubine..."
If Concubine Lian really gave birth to the tenth prince, then, in the future...he used to think that if Concubine Lian gave birth to the tenth prince, he would be able to fight with the prince, and they could sit back and enjoy the benefits.
But looking at it now, when the tenth prince really grows up, the prince's strength will only become stronger. As for him, he has nothing and has not been crowned king until now, and even married such a prince and concubine!
Concubine Xu was also angry. She had delayed for two years, but unexpectedly, she had to let Jiang Ruwen in in the end. Then why did she offend the emperor in the past two years?Isn't it a waste of thought?
Concubine Xu looked at Zhou Yuwei, thought of something, and patted Zhou Yuwei's shoulder: "Don't worry, the emperor. From the perspective of concubine mother, this might be a good thing."
"Huh?" Zhou Yuwei raised his eyes, "A good thing? My son is going to marry a spy to enter the house. Is this a good thing?"
Concubine Xu said: "But my son, don't forget that after you get married, you will be able to leave the palace and build a mansion, and it will be much more convenient for us to do things in the future. What's more, being married doesn't mean she will always be the Seventh Prince's Concubine , when the time comes to find some big mistakes or the other party 'died of illness', as long as we plan well and do it seamlessly, we will not be able to find out, as long as my son can bear his temper for a while, it is not that there is no turning point."
Zhou Yuwei's eyes lit up: "That's right, it was not easy for the son-in-law to do anything when he was in the palace. Now that he is out of the palace, he might be able to plan something. Yes, yes, but what if Jiang Ruwen...is found out?"
Concubine Xu narrowed her eyes, and a vicious flash flashed in her eyes: "Don't worry, the emperor, but she is just an unimportant second daughter of the Jiang family, and the concubine mother will find a way."
Only then did Zhou Yuwei become happy, and the charming appearance of Concubine Yugui flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel itchy. If he married such a beautiful woman, he wouldn't be so resistant!
It's a pity... Now that the mother and concubine have said so, let's just wait.
Xu Jinwen didn't care about the low air pressure here in the Wei Palace, he was completely out of favor, His Highness didn't let his legs warm the bed, is there something else?
Fortunately, while waiting to go to sleep, Xu Jinwen found out that Zhou Xiuyao had just put up an extra screen in the bedroom and let Xiao Shunzi get a bed to come in.
A screen was pulled in the middle, completely blocking the line of sight.
It was rare for Xu Jinwen to suffer from insomnia, he opened his big eyes and looked at the top of his head resentfully, and when there was any movement at the palace gate, Xu Jinwen quickly closed his eyes.
Not long after, I heard that Zhou Xiuyao went to the back hall to take a bath, and then came back very lightly, and got on the couch.
Xu Jinwen waited for a long time to make sure that Zhou Xiuyao must have fallen asleep, then stooped down from the bed, poked his head out from behind the screen, and stared resentfully behind the bed curtain, but he couldn't see anything.
Xu Jinwen felt even more resentful. Could it be that he did something wrong?Or it wasn't warm enough, or maybe he fell asleep while being warmed up, and was rejected?
The more Xu Jinwen thought about it, the more he felt that he was too incompetent.
Zhou Xiuyao hadn't fallen asleep, and when Xu Jinwen came down, he noticed it. Looking at a shadow reflected through a bed curtain, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitched, but thinking about his dream last night, he felt even more forbearing.
If he didn't sleep separately, he was really worried that if he couldn't distinguish reality from dreams that day, he would scare that stupid boy away...
Zhou Xiuyao closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
However, the presence of the one not far away was too strong. Zhou Xiuyao had no choice but to open his eyes. He finally sat up and lifted the curtain of the bed. Sure enough, he saw Xu Jinwen ran back in a hurry, opened the brocade quilt and got in. pretend to sleep.
A smile flashed across Zhou Xiuyao's eyes, he walked over and sat down on the bed: "Stop pretending, I know you're not asleep."
Only then did Xu Jinwen open his eyes, sat up, and said listlessly, "Your Highness, did your subordinates do something wrong?"
Xu Jinwen thought about it and asked, otherwise, don't sleep tonight, just thinking about it will last all night.
Zhou Xiuyao shook his head: "No."
"What is that?" Xu Jinwen didn't believe it.
Zhou Xiuyao's eyes became a bit complicated, and after a long time, he found an excuse at random: "I'm busy recently, I'm afraid I'll come back late, in a few days there will not only be spring hunting, but also sacrifices, and private visits in micro-services, all of which require the crown prince Participating in person is also arranged by the emperor, I'm afraid it will disturb your rest."
Xu Jinwen shook his head: "Subordinates are not afraid of being disturbed..."
Zhou Xiuyao: "If Xu's companion is sick, who will be Gu's companion? It's just for a while, after a while, it's better to move back."
"Really?" Xu Jinwen's eyes lit up, and after thinking about it, he felt that his sleeping position was not good, so it's better not to bother His Highness, as long as His Highness has no other meows, only meow, then there is no problem!
Xu Jinwen became happy again, and Zhou Xiuyao's eyes softened. He thought for a while and said, "In a few days, it will be Concubine Lian's birthday, and the emperor will hold a banquet for Concubine Lian. At that time, Mr. Xu Ge will also come. I didn't have time to have a good time with Concubine Lian last time." Xu Ge gets along well, Gu will allow you to go earlier."
Xu Jinwen was so excited that he rushed over quickly, but finally restrained himself, he is no longer a cat, he coughed lowly, and cupped his hands: "Your subordinate obeys!"
Looking at the young man's soft hair, Zhou Xiuyao felt a little itchy. Thinking of the other party's previous actions, he also felt a little regretful, but...is it the right time?
A few days passed quickly, and Xu Jinwen finally waited for Concubine Lian's birthday. He got a special permit, took his waist card and went to wait for Xu Ge's old age early. Elder Xu Ge laughed out loud.
Not far from the main hall where the birthday banquet was approaching, Xu Jinwen told Mr. Xu Ge all the interesting things about these days. On the one hand, he wanted to reassure Mr. Xu Ge, and on the other hand, he asked whether Concubine Xu would play tricks again.
After receiving no news, Xu Jinwen began to concentrate on teasing Mr. Xu Ge, a rare harmony between the old and the young.
Not far away, an exquisite chariot passed by. When the curtain blew open, the girl sitting in the chariot turned her head, and her eyes fell on the boy's innocent smile. Her eyes were curved into crescent moons, shining brightly. Makes you feel great.
The girl's pale face couldn't help but fell straight on the boy's face, and she couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, but after a while, the boy left with his arms around the man, and the girl couldn't see it after staring, so she slowly retracted out of sight.
Xu Jinwen talked to Mr. Xu Ge all the way, which made Mr. Xu Ge happy. He was in a good mood, but he talked too much, and his mouth was thirsty. When he arrived at the main hall, he saw Zhou Xiuyao who was in the first place at a glance, and his eyes lit up. , he was the prince's companion, so naturally he wanted to follow the prince, so he told Xu Ge and left.
After arriving behind Zhou Xiuyao, he stood still, bowed his hands in a polite salute: "Your Highness, your subordinate is back."
Zhou Xiuyao hummed, but didn't say much.
Only then did Xu Jinwen stand up straight, and after standing for a while, the sequelae of talking too much before came up, his mouth was so thirsty, he couldn't help but glanced at the cup in front of Zhou Xiuyao.
Probably because Xu Jinwen's eyes were too focused, Zhou Xiuyao raised his eyes sideways: "Thirsty?"
He had seen Xu Jinwen talking nonstop before, so he naturally guessed it.
Xu Jinwen nodded.
Zhou Xiuyao hummed: "Xiao Shunzi, pour Xu Ban a cup of tea."
Xiao Shunzi responded, and was about to make a move, but Xu Jinwen was so thirsty, he saw the nearest half cup: "No need, no need, this will do."
Before the two could react, they drank it in one gulp, and only then did they feel alive again.
After finishing drinking, I saw Xiao Shunzi's stunned eyes: "Xu, Xu companion reading...that, that's the palace..." His highness drank...
But this was interrupted by Zhou Xiuyao, he took a deep look at the young man, especially his red lips soaked in tea, his pupils shrank, and he said slowly, "Are you still thirsty?"
Xu Jinwen shook his head, "I'm not thirsty anymore, I'm not thirsty anymore."
This is outside, so it can't be so big or small, he is still very measured.
Zhou Xiuyao's eyes deepened, with regret that Xu Jinwen couldn't understand.
Xu Jinwen: "???"
At this moment, a chanting sounded: "The emperor is here—the empress is here—the concubine Lian is here—"
Xu Jinwen's curiosity was immediately aroused: pity the noble concubine, he has been in the palace for so long, and finally met the rumored noble concubine.
Xiao Shunzi dared to raise his head and say that he had spied on a little secret that His Highness and Xu Ban read. What if he didn't agree with one of them and was silenced by His Highness?
Xiao Shunzi hastily shook his head: "Reporting to Your Highness, this servant just met Xu Bandu. Xu Bandu seemed to have twisted his waist, and his walking was uncomfortable. This servant is thinking about whether to... combine today's lunch with dinner." The meal for the meal is also prepared lighter, and then invite the imperial doctor to come and take a look?"
Zhou Xiuyao thought about it carefully, it seems that when the little thing was frightened by him, he did hit it, but it shouldn't be heavy, otherwise the little thing with thin skin and tender flesh would have screamed a long time ago.
Zhou Xiuyao shook his head: "No need, just bring a bottle of traumatic medicine later."
Xiao Shunzi immediately covered his mouth, because he was kneeling and lowered his head, so he couldn't see the excitement in his eyes, so he restrained his voice and said: "Yes, yes... the slave knows."
Ah, he understands, understands, His Highness wants to read it to Xu Ban himself, why is he so stupid, he still has to go to the imperial doctor, with His Highness here, what kind of imperial doctor does he need?
Zhou Xiuyao didn't know what Xiao Shunzi was imagining, so he waved his hand: "If you have nothing to do, step back."
Xiao Shunzi: "The meal..."
Xiao Shunzi took care of all Zhou Xiuyao's meals. Since he used it, he naturally trusted him: "You can figure it out yourself."
He didn't know much about these either. Apart from knowing what the little thing liked to eat, the rest of the reasonable matching still depended on Xiao Shunzi.
However, that little thing likes to eat meat every day, so it's not bad to eat light one or two times.
Xiao Shunzi made up his mind and felt that he had guessed correctly. Since His Highness agreed, he went to prepare.
It's just that Xu Bandu needs to eat light food, but His Highness doesn't need it. How can His Highness eat light food after working so hard day and night?That needs a lot of supplementation.
When Xiao Shunzi came out of the study, he covered his face and his eyes were shining. There were already countless recipes in his mind, which were read by Xu Ban, His Highness's... The ones Xu Ban read can be supplemented in two days, otherwise, it will affect the Your Highness's...how good is it.
So, when it was time for lunch, Xu Jinwen looked at the meals on the table and divided them into two extremes. On his side, the soup was clear and watery, and he couldn't even see a star of oil...
Forget it, he glanced at Zhou Xiuyao, and suddenly complained: steamed sea bass, braised mutton, stewed chicken with angelica, plus a stewed soft-shelled turtle soup...
Xu Jinwen: "..."
Probably because his resentful little eyes were too present, Zhou Xiuyao didn't care at first, but when he lowered his head, he also saw the two extremes. Just as he was about to ask Xiao Shunzi behind him what was going on, he remembered Xiao Shunzi's previous report , The little thing sprained his waist, so he should have a light meal or two.
Zhou Xiuyao looked at Xu Jinwen's eyes looking at the big fish and big meat on his side, and explained in a warm voice: "You sprained your waist, so eat something light for this meal, and I will give you some medicine when I go back to the dormitory next time."
"Ah?" Xu Jinwen was taken aback, if Zhou Xiuyao hadn't said it, he would have forgotten it at all, he twisted, but it hurt a little, "No, no need..."
If he had to choose between food and taboo, he definitely wanted to choose the first one.
Zhou Xiuyao couldn't understand his thoughts, and looked at him expressionlessly: "Eat obediently."
Xu Jinwen was finally defeated by Zhou Xiuyao's threat, and had a tasteless lunch.
Xiao Shunzi, who was standing not far away, watched this scene and clenched his fists excitedly: "Look, look, he really has hot eyes."
Xu Jinwen slumped his head and ate a lunch that tasted like wax. As a carnivore, eating grass...is not his style.
But... who made him just a leg? If the master speaks, the leg has to listen.
After lunch, Xu Jinwen obediently followed Zhou Xiuyao to the dormitory. Xiao Shunzi, who was not allowed to follow, held onto the door frame and looked at the two figures, one in front and one behind, wanting to see through: Your Highness...you lack a servant to guard the door!
Xu Jinwen listlessly followed Zhou Xiuyao to the bedroom, and when he reached the bed, he stood up obediently, but then he thought how could he ask the master to apply medicine to his legs?
"Your Highness, why don't I do it myself." Xu Jinwen pointed his head over.
Zhou Xiuyao glanced at him: "Then just deal with it out of fear of pain?"
Since I bumped into it, I'm afraid there will be bruises, so I don't rub it open, what should I do? "Lie down on the bed and lift up your clothes."
Seeing that the resistance was futile, Xu Jinwen could only take off his outer robe casually, threw it aside, lifted up the inner garment of his jacket, exposed half of his back, and lay down on the bed.
Zhou Xiuyao approached with the medicine bottle, and sure enough, he saw that it was a little green, but it was not serious.
Zhou Xiuyao sat down in front of Xu Jinwen, first poured the potion into his palm, kneaded it and warmed it up, before covering it with his palm, he said: "Hold on."
When Xu Jinwen was mischievous when he was a child, he bumped into many places, and it didn't hurt at all. However, he probably didn't know that the people who rubbed him were all slaves. They didn't dare to use force, but Zhou Xiuyao was different. He rubbed it down with one palm...
As soon as Xiao Shunzi packed up and passed the inner hall, he heard Xu Bandu's hissing "Ah" from far away.
Xiao Shunzi stood up instantly in fright: "!!!"
Then I remembered something and couldn't help scratching the wall: Your Highness is really... so merciless!
In the inner hall, if Xu Jinwen didn't remember that it was the crown prince rubbing his waist behind him, he really wanted to kick him away, it was really... so painful.
His waist is about to break!Zhou Xiuyao frowned, this is too delicate, he only used [-]% of his strength, just watched Xu Jinwen biting the corner of his quilt and looking at him with tears and resentment, he relaxed half of his strength again, waiting to rub the bruise away After that, Zhou Xiuyao originally wanted to let go of his hand, but he caught a glimpse of the young man's slender waist inadvertently, and then looked down...
Zhou Xiuyao's movements suddenly slowed down.His expression was dazed for a while, until Xu Jinwen felt the heat and pain in his lower back, so he couldn't hold back, and wailed: "Your Highness, can you call Xiao Shunzi in, can you change someone?"
If he rubs it any further, his waist will be broken, Your Highness, you will have no companion to read from now on.
Zhou Xiuyao withdrew his hand reluctantly, stood up abruptly, turned around, but his mind was full of Xu Jinwen's waist and...
He slowly picked up the veil and wiped his palms, but the temperature could not be lowered.
Zhou Xiuyao walked out of the inner hall almost quickly, leaving only one sentence: "Gu will go out of the palace later, and I will come back to accompany you for dinner. Remember to go to the study to practice calligraphy. I will check when I come back."
Xu Jinwen groaned silently, threw himself on the brocade quilt, bowed his head, and answered listlessly, but fell asleep quickly without heart.
And Zhou Xiuyao walked all the way outside the hall, and when the cool wind blew, he felt that the heat on his face had subsided a lot, and he calmed down.
Xu Jinwen obediently went to practice calligraphy in the afternoon, but he ate too much water for lunch, so he was hungry early, so as soon as Xu Jinwen finished practicing calligraphy, he eagerly looked forward to dinner.
Just waiting for the dinner to come, Xu Jinwen looked at still grazing grass on the left and eating meat on the right, Xu Jinwen: "..." I really want to crush Xiao Shunzi to death, where is the meat!What about his meat!
After all, he is a patient!sick!
Xu Jinwen didn't dare to open his mouth, so he looked at Zhou Xiuyao with his small eyes, but Zhou Xiuyao, who was very sensitive to his eyes in the past, turned a blind eye to him this night!He was even a little absent-minded, and didn't even notice that he drank the soft-shelled turtle soup that he hated the most.
Xu Jinwen wondered: Could it be that His Highness encountered difficulties?
If you have any difficulties, come to the companion, and the companion will solve it for you, Your Highness.
Zhou Xiuyao didn't sense Xu Jinwen's brainwaves, he ate his dinner absent-mindedly, but what lingered in his mind was Xu Jinwen's after lunch...
Zhou Xiuyao frowned, feeling that he was really strange today.
I thought it would just pass by after lunch, but this situation lasted all afternoon.
After dinner, he used the excuse to go to the study to check Xu Jinwen's handwriting and left.
What Zhou Xiuyao didn't know was that after he left, Xu Jinwen finally couldn't bear to find fault with Xiao Shunzi.
Xu Jinwen blocked Xiao Shunzi in the corner of the hall. With a long hand to block it, he blocked Xiao Shunzi between his arm and the wall like a hooligan, lowered his eyes, looked at Xiao Shunzi who was shrinking his neck, and snorted coldly. One sound.
Xiao Shunzi was terrified and trembling: Could it be... the secret he knew was known by Xu Bandu?
Xu Ban read that this is to threaten first and then silence?
Xu Jinwen originally wanted to scare Xiao Shunzi, and asked him to give him some meat, and then he would become a pitiful little cabbage if he ate the bland vegetables and fish porridge.
Seeing Xiao Shunzi's frightened look now, his heart softened again, and he coughed softly: "Hey, Xiao Shunzi, do you have any opinion on me?"
Xiao Shunzi originally thought he had been discovered, but when he heard this sentence, he was stunned: "Ah? No, no, how dare a slave."
This is the default candidate for the future crown princess, his future master, how dare he?
Xu Jinwen approached, narrowing his eyes: "Really? Are you sure?"
Since Xu Jinwen entered the palace, all Xiao Shunzi saw was Xu Bandu who was laughing and joking, and this was the first time he saw Xu Bandu looking down at him with a sullen face, and silently swallowed: "Indeed, sure... "
No, he can't admit that he has found out that His Highness has put Xu Bandu on the couch, otherwise, if Xu Bandu is embarrassed to not let His Highness go to bed, what will His Highness do if he is angry with poor Xiao Shunzi?
Seeing Xiao Shunzi's guilt-ridden appearance, Xu Jinwen couldn't believe it even more, and he simply opened up and said, "If you have no objection to me, why did you prepare me with clear soup today? Tell me! Are you tomorrow? Are you going to prepare for this too?"
Xiao Shunzi said "ah", just about to nod, when he met Xu Jinwen's resentful eyes, he suddenly understood, got stuck immediately, struggled for a little bit, and then persuaded in a low voice: "Xu Bandu, it's not that the slave doesn't want to do it for you." It's kind of meaty, but...you know, your current body...is not suitable."
Xu Jinwen moved his head forward: "Nonsense! You just treat them differently!"
The more Xu Jinwen thought about it, the more resentful he became. He didn't want to be like His Highness. After all, His Highness is the master and he is the companion, but he is also the companion... Isn't the gap too big?
It's not a little bit different from the rich meal before.
Besides, "Your Highness used to mix meat and vegetables, but now! It's all meat! It's all! But I'm all vegetarian!"
He hadn't heard of it before, he hit his waist and couldn't eat any meat!The other party can eat them all!This is absolutely not normal!
As soon as Xiao Shunzi heard this, he thought about it, and then he understood that Xu Ban's feelings were unbalanced in his heart, but he couldn't say bluntly, His Highness is the one who contributes, so naturally he needs to make up, otherwise There is no successor, isn't this going to make Xu Bandu feel disgusted?
This will hurt His Highness's self-esteem.
So, Xiao Shunzi earnestly said: "Xu Bandu, you see, this slave has done something wrong, but Xiao Shunzi is also kind. Do you think that Your Highness has been too tired recently?"
Xiao Shunzi winked, his expression made Xu Jinwen frown: His eyes twitched?
Xiao Shunzi looked at Xu Jinwen's serious face, and continued: "Your Highness has worked so hard and worked so hard. Naturally, he needs to make up for it. Otherwise... this... is also good for Xu Bandu, right?"
Xu Jinwen frowned: Treat him well?Why did His Highness Bubu treat him so well?
However, he remembered that His Highness woke up earlier than chickens and went to bed later than dogs, bah!How could he use XX dog to compare with His Highness?This also proves that His Highness is indeed... much more miserable than him.
Xu Jinwen let go of his arms, pinched his chin and thought seriously, hmm... Thinking about myself and thinking about His Highness's hard work, it is indeed too much.
Xu Jinwen figured it out, changed his previous attitude, and patted Xiao Shunzi on the shoulder: "It's Xiao Shunzi's heart, and I blamed you. Thinking about it this way, I'm really incompetent as a companion... "
Xiao Shunzi quickly apologized: "Where is it, Xu Bandu is much more competent than Xiao Shunzi."
Xu Jinwen wandered back, thinking about eating grass, wanted to cry but fell asleep while warming the bed, that's all, went to find something delicious in his dream!
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao was busy in the study until midnight to finish his business, and then stepped on the silver light all over the floor to go back to the bedroom.
It's just that I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that it's very hot tonight, not only hot but also dry, so he tugged at the front of his clothes, and went back to the dormitory to take a look, and sure enough Xu Jinwen fell asleep again, with only half of his face exposed under the brocade quilt , Zhou Xiuyao looked at the slender white face exposed under the dark light, sleeping rosy white, and a flash of slender whiteness flashed in his mind.
Zhou Xiuyao felt that his body was even more uncomfortable, so he simply took off his outer robe, went to the apse to take a bath, then came back and lay down on the outside, and fell asleep.
It's just that Zhou Xiuyao slept until midnight, always feeling like an octopus was wrapped around his body, hot and dry, but he fell into a deep dream and couldn't wake up. There was a white fog in front of him, so foggy, he couldn't get out of it. don't go.
He frowned and walked forward step by step. A figure suddenly appeared in the groggy clouds and mist in front of him. He pushed away the white mist, revealing a boy's face. He suddenly grinned at him, and the clothes slipped on his shoulders With half of his shoulders exposed, he gave him a sideways glance, and his voice seemed to have a hook: "Your Highness~ come and play~"
Zhou Xiuyao woke up abruptly.
He opened his eyes abruptly, sweat was all over his head and face, and his robes were completely soaked. The sound of panting was extremely heavy in the dark night bedroom, and something was wrapped around his body.
When he looked down, he saw that there was another person in his arms. The boy didn't sleep well, and his hands and feet were wrapped around him tightly. Zhou Xiuyao raised his arms and supported his forehead. Feeling sick all over.
He lowered his head, looked somewhere, and frowned even more. Thinking of the previous dream scene, the frown deepened.
Zhou Xiuyao stripped off the hands and feet of the wrapped person, and stuffed them into the brocade quilt very lightly, then went to the apse and took a cold shower.
After Zhou Xiuyao finished washing, thinking of the dream, he turned in the direction of the inner hall, went to the study, and dealt with it casually all night.
The next day Xu Jinwen woke up and didn't see Zhou Xiuyao. He thought that the other party had gone to read early. Now he doesn't need to read early to follow him. He just needs to find the time to accompany the old master when he comes.
Xu Jinwen hurriedly tidied up and ended up going to the study room. It was rare to see that the study room was empty, Zhou Xiuyao was not there, and neither was Old Madam Yu.
Xu Jinwen came out of the study room in doubt, and saw the radiant Xiao Shunzi as soon as he turned the corner: "Where is your Highness? Why didn't Old Madam Yu give a lecture today?"
Xiao Shunzi's voice was brisk: "His Royal Highness has something to go to the imperial study today. Old Madam Yu did not enter the palace, but Xu Bandu is going to have breakfast?" Xu Jinwen shook his head: "No need! Wait for Your Highness to join us."
In the past, breakfast was what he was looking forward to, but when he thought of the clear soup and lack of water, Xu Jinwen was completely overwhelmed!Don't look forward to it!
Although looking at His Highness's breakfast, I was greedy, but at least I was able to pass the eye addiction.
But the wait lasted for two or three hours, Zhou Xiuyao had been waiting for lunch before he came back slowly, Xu Jinwen immediately went up to meet him, talking about something, why didn't he come back for breakfast, he was full!
The purpose is to tell Zhou Xiuyao that he is serious about eating, even if it is clear soup with little water, he will eat it!
In the end, after asking a few words, I realized that His Highness has lost his mind today?
Xu Jinwen thought, could it be that he has studied hard recently?
Sure enough, Xiao Shunzi was smart enough to make up for it in advance.
Zhou Xiuyao was indeed distracted, he felt that something was wrong with him, until he saw the lunch served by Xiao Shunzi again.
Thinking of those two meals yesterday, I feel thoughtful.
One time may be a coincidence, two days... then there is a problem.
After finishing his lunch, Zhou Xiuyao found a reason for Xu Jinwen to rest, and asked the hidden guard to carry Xiao Shunzi into the study.
When Xiao Shunzi was called in by Zhou Xiuyao, she was terrified. It was the first time she saw such a situation, and she knelt down as soon as she came in: "Your Highness, Your Highness... Did the slave do something wrong?"
Zhou Xiuyao narrowed his eyes, and stared at him condescendingly with deep pupils: "Xiao Shunzi, don't you want to explain the meals for these two days?"
Xiao Shunzi trembled: "No, no, no... no, it's still..."
Zhou Xiuyao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him: "Do you think Gu is stupid?"
Xiao Shunzi trembled, obviously feeling the strong threat in His Highness's words, and kowtowed: "Your Highness, Your Highness, forgive me, this slave is really just kind... This slave knows that I shouldn't spy on Your Highness's relationship with you. Xu Bandu's secret, but the slave... the slave promises not to reveal it!"
"The secret of Gu and Xu Bandu?" Zhou Xiuyao squinted, why didn't he know it?
Xiao Shunzi trembled even more: Is it really because of this?
"Forgive me, Your Highness. This servant no longer dares to make decisions on his own. It's just that His Highness let this servant figure out what to do. Thinking that His Highness has had too much sex with Xu Ban recently, this servant... decided to make up for His Highness. Slave Don’t dare again! Your Highness, let me spare this time!”
"House, affairs, past, many?!" Even Zhou Xiuyao was stunned by Xiao Shunzi's words, and then came back to his senses, and then connected Xiao Shunzi's actions in the past two days together with Xu Jinwen's words. The meal with clear soup and little water was his food supplement, his handsome face darkened, and he gritted his teeth: "Small, Shun, Zi!"
Xiao Shunzi was so frightened that he almost cried, and kept kowtowing: "Your Highness, please forgive me!"
It was the first time that Zhou Xiuyao was misunderstood by the people below. He squinted his eyes and pursed his thin lips coldly. Just as he was about to punish him as a warning to others, the scene of last night suddenly flashed through his mind, and his thin lips that were already parted were pursed again. , squinting, staring at Xiao Shunzi thoughtfully.
Xiao Shunzi wanted to cry, but he didn't have any tears. If he had known...if he had known, he wouldn't have made decisions on his own, but he was really just kind.
Just when Xiao Shunzi thought that he might not be able to avoid this catastrophe this time, he heard Zhou Xiuyao finally speak: "How did you know those things?"
Most people are afraid that even if they have a close relationship, they won't imagine it to this level, right?
Xiao Shunzi blushed, he could say that he was good at it, he made up a lot in private, and treasured a lot... huh?
Zhou Xiuyao's sharp eyes stared at Xiao Shunzi's reaction. Seeing this, he didn't care about these things all the time. Although he probably knew it, he had never experienced it, but it was the first time last night that he experienced it. It was inevitable for him to toss and turn, he thought about it all night, and vaguely guessed something, but he didn't understand it.
Seeing Xiao Shunzi's appearance now, he squinted his eyes: "It seems that you are still too busy. The books you read on weekdays are confiscated, and they will all be sent to the study room later. If you miss one book, you will bear the consequences."
Xiao Shunzi: "...Yes." No——his treasure.
But compared with Xiao Ming, Xiao Shunzi resolutely chose the latter. Xiao Shunzi almost pissed out of the study and returned to his room, and contributed all the treasures contained in a small box that was very tightly hidden. go up.
In the study, Xiao Shunzi knelt on the ground obediently, with red eyes: "Your Highness, this servant has treasured these for many years. I guarantee that I didn't keep any of them. This servant is really wrong."
Zhou Xiuyao hummed: "Okay, I will spare your life this time, if you do it again next time..."
Xiao Shunzi shook his head quickly: "Don't dare, don't dare!"
Zhou Xiuyao thought for a while, and then said slowly: "Also, you don't have to be harsh on Xu Bandu for dinner, Gu and Xu Bandu have no personal relationship, and he doesn't have to be taboo, understand?"
Xiao Shunzi's eyes widened: ... It's over, he actually misunderstood His Highness and Xu Bandu!
Strange, no wonder His Highness had that reaction just now!
It seems that in the future... I will be pure-hearted and ascetic, and I must stop thinking about it. I was almost snapped, and he even suspected that His Highness was a broken sleeve. He was wrong...
Xiao Shunzi went out frightened. In order to make up for the innocent Xu Bandu who had been abused three times, Xiao Shunzi tried his best to prepare a table of delicious food.
On the other side, Zhou Xiuyao waited for Xiao Shunzi to leave, and then slowly opened the bookcase, frowning and looking at the old book on the top, but when he opened the first page and saw the illustration on it, Zhou Xiuyao Suddenly closed the book: "!!!"
In the following afternoon, Zhou Xiuyao didn't leave the study room, and even Xu Jinwen didn't open it when he came to accompany him to read. Xu Jinwen's study room was advanced, and he had nothing to do, so he just sat on the threshold of the palace with a straw in his mouth, and looked not far away. A nest of ants.
Xiao Shunzi came over at some point, and sat down cautiously on the side. Seeing Xu Jinwen looking over, he tilted his head and smiled apologetically: "Reading with Xu, are you hungry? Look, the past two days I'm hungry and thin, I'll make up for you at night."
Xu Jinwen: "!!!" Hey, there's nothing to be courteous about!If you are a woman, you are a thief!
Xu Jinwen jumped up and ran away, leaving Xiao Shunzi alone in the wind: T^T Xu Bandu really refused to forgive him!
Xiao Shunzi guessed wrong, and when Xu Jinwen saw the sumptuous dinner, he almost shook hands with Xiao Shunzi and said excitedly, "Shunzi, I will protect you from now on, my dear Shunzi, I have been greedy for the past two days." He is dead.
In the end, when Xu Jinwen had eaten and drank enough, he was almost dead. Zhou Xiuyao still didn't come out of the study. Xu Jinwen was still surprised, but when he thought of eating and drinking, he felt happy again.
When Zhou Xiuyao finally came out of the study with a solemn face, he glanced at Xu Jinwen with a rather complicated expression, and announced a decision to make Xu Jinwen collapse, and there is no need to let Xu Jinwen warm his bed in the future.
Xu Jinwen: QAQ has fallen out of favor...
Xu Jinwen was completely stunned by the news, so he naturally didn't notice that Zhou Xiuyao lost his steady steps when he left after speaking, and he couldn't notice the slightly red ears.
There is harmony on the side of Yuxin Palace, but on the other side of Wei Palace, the palace is covered by dark clouds.
Ever since Emperor Zhou personally summoned Zhou Yuwei and Jiang Ruwen and let them get married in three months, Zhou Yuwei didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction on the surface, but when he arrived at Wei Palace, he almost overturned the whole bedroom.
He didn't want to marry that saltless girl at all, why?
Why did Lin Wang and the others marry delicate and noble daughters, whose status and status could help him.
He insisted on marrying a first-born daughter who had no name at all!She's still the Jiang family's daughter!
This simply cut off his retreat completely!
With such a person by his side, how could he plan?
Zhou Yuwei stayed in the dormitory all day and night without leaving the palace. Concubine Xu was in a hurry and came here in person.
Zhou Yuwei came out with a dazed expression on his face. Seeing Concubine Xu was also listless. His dream of becoming an emperor was probably about to die.
He even felt a little resentful, why wasn't the concubine mother so favored back then?
If the mother and concubine are still favored, if there is no pity for the noble concubine, then he is still the most beloved prince of the father.
As a result, now the emperor's attention is all on pity for the noble concubine and the prince in her stomach.
Concubine Xu's heart turned cold when she saw the light in Zhou Yuwei's eyes, but after all this was her prince, knowing that the other party was angry, she was reluctant to really say anything, she lowered her eyes, walked over, and sat on the chair blankly. Zhou Yuwei: "It's because the concubine mother is incompetent and can't win your father's heart. It's just... the emperor, the concubine mother is not young. The reason why she was favored back then was because of her face similar to Concubine Yu. Now there are There is nothing the concubine can do if she finds someone who is younger and more similar."
When Concubine Xu said this, her eyes were gloomy and sad.
This actually made Zhou Yuwei feel more guilty than saying it directly, but the guilt was only for a moment, but Zhou Yuwei didn't dare to show anything, gently lowered his eyes, and put his forehead on Concubine Xu's shoulder: "Mother Concubine, my son's heart It's hard, father, he... is too partial. It's fine to let Lao Jiu be the prince, but now there is a pity concubine..."
If Concubine Lian really gave birth to the tenth prince, then, in the future...he used to think that if Concubine Lian gave birth to the tenth prince, he would be able to fight with the prince, and they could sit back and enjoy the benefits.
But looking at it now, when the tenth prince really grows up, the prince's strength will only become stronger. As for him, he has nothing and has not been crowned king until now, and even married such a prince and concubine!
Concubine Xu was also angry. She had delayed for two years, but unexpectedly, she had to let Jiang Ruwen in in the end. Then why did she offend the emperor in the past two years?Isn't it a waste of thought?
Concubine Xu looked at Zhou Yuwei, thought of something, and patted Zhou Yuwei's shoulder: "Don't worry, the emperor. From the perspective of concubine mother, this might be a good thing."
"Huh?" Zhou Yuwei raised his eyes, "A good thing? My son is going to marry a spy to enter the house. Is this a good thing?"
Concubine Xu said: "But my son, don't forget that after you get married, you will be able to leave the palace and build a mansion, and it will be much more convenient for us to do things in the future. What's more, being married doesn't mean she will always be the Seventh Prince's Concubine , when the time comes to find some big mistakes or the other party 'died of illness', as long as we plan well and do it seamlessly, we will not be able to find out, as long as my son can bear his temper for a while, it is not that there is no turning point."
Zhou Yuwei's eyes lit up: "That's right, it was not easy for the son-in-law to do anything when he was in the palace. Now that he is out of the palace, he might be able to plan something. Yes, yes, but what if Jiang Ruwen...is found out?"
Concubine Xu narrowed her eyes, and a vicious flash flashed in her eyes: "Don't worry, the emperor, but she is just an unimportant second daughter of the Jiang family, and the concubine mother will find a way."
Only then did Zhou Yuwei become happy, and the charming appearance of Concubine Yugui flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help but feel itchy. If he married such a beautiful woman, he wouldn't be so resistant!
It's a pity... Now that the mother and concubine have said so, let's just wait.
Xu Jinwen didn't care about the low air pressure here in the Wei Palace, he was completely out of favor, His Highness didn't let his legs warm the bed, is there something else?
Fortunately, while waiting to go to sleep, Xu Jinwen found out that Zhou Xiuyao had just put up an extra screen in the bedroom and let Xiao Shunzi get a bed to come in.
A screen was pulled in the middle, completely blocking the line of sight.
It was rare for Xu Jinwen to suffer from insomnia, he opened his big eyes and looked at the top of his head resentfully, and when there was any movement at the palace gate, Xu Jinwen quickly closed his eyes.
Not long after, I heard that Zhou Xiuyao went to the back hall to take a bath, and then came back very lightly, and got on the couch.
Xu Jinwen waited for a long time to make sure that Zhou Xiuyao must have fallen asleep, then stooped down from the bed, poked his head out from behind the screen, and stared resentfully behind the bed curtain, but he couldn't see anything.
Xu Jinwen felt even more resentful. Could it be that he did something wrong?Or it wasn't warm enough, or maybe he fell asleep while being warmed up, and was rejected?
The more Xu Jinwen thought about it, the more he felt that he was too incompetent.
Zhou Xiuyao hadn't fallen asleep, and when Xu Jinwen came down, he noticed it. Looking at a shadow reflected through a bed curtain, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitched, but thinking about his dream last night, he felt even more forbearing.
If he didn't sleep separately, he was really worried that if he couldn't distinguish reality from dreams that day, he would scare that stupid boy away...
Zhou Xiuyao closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
However, the presence of the one not far away was too strong. Zhou Xiuyao had no choice but to open his eyes. He finally sat up and lifted the curtain of the bed. Sure enough, he saw Xu Jinwen ran back in a hurry, opened the brocade quilt and got in. pretend to sleep.
A smile flashed across Zhou Xiuyao's eyes, he walked over and sat down on the bed: "Stop pretending, I know you're not asleep."
Only then did Xu Jinwen open his eyes, sat up, and said listlessly, "Your Highness, did your subordinates do something wrong?"
Xu Jinwen thought about it and asked, otherwise, don't sleep tonight, just thinking about it will last all night.
Zhou Xiuyao shook his head: "No."
"What is that?" Xu Jinwen didn't believe it.
Zhou Xiuyao's eyes became a bit complicated, and after a long time, he found an excuse at random: "I'm busy recently, I'm afraid I'll come back late, in a few days there will not only be spring hunting, but also sacrifices, and private visits in micro-services, all of which require the crown prince Participating in person is also arranged by the emperor, I'm afraid it will disturb your rest."
Xu Jinwen shook his head: "Subordinates are not afraid of being disturbed..."
Zhou Xiuyao: "If Xu's companion is sick, who will be Gu's companion? It's just for a while, after a while, it's better to move back."
"Really?" Xu Jinwen's eyes lit up, and after thinking about it, he felt that his sleeping position was not good, so it's better not to bother His Highness, as long as His Highness has no other meows, only meow, then there is no problem!
Xu Jinwen became happy again, and Zhou Xiuyao's eyes softened. He thought for a while and said, "In a few days, it will be Concubine Lian's birthday, and the emperor will hold a banquet for Concubine Lian. At that time, Mr. Xu Ge will also come. I didn't have time to have a good time with Concubine Lian last time." Xu Ge gets along well, Gu will allow you to go earlier."
Xu Jinwen was so excited that he rushed over quickly, but finally restrained himself, he is no longer a cat, he coughed lowly, and cupped his hands: "Your subordinate obeys!"
Looking at the young man's soft hair, Zhou Xiuyao felt a little itchy. Thinking of the other party's previous actions, he also felt a little regretful, but...is it the right time?
A few days passed quickly, and Xu Jinwen finally waited for Concubine Lian's birthday. He got a special permit, took his waist card and went to wait for Xu Ge's old age early. Elder Xu Ge laughed out loud.
Not far from the main hall where the birthday banquet was approaching, Xu Jinwen told Mr. Xu Ge all the interesting things about these days. On the one hand, he wanted to reassure Mr. Xu Ge, and on the other hand, he asked whether Concubine Xu would play tricks again.
After receiving no news, Xu Jinwen began to concentrate on teasing Mr. Xu Ge, a rare harmony between the old and the young.
Not far away, an exquisite chariot passed by. When the curtain blew open, the girl sitting in the chariot turned her head, and her eyes fell on the boy's innocent smile. Her eyes were curved into crescent moons, shining brightly. Makes you feel great.
The girl's pale face couldn't help but fell straight on the boy's face, and she couldn't help but bend the corners of her mouth, but after a while, the boy left with his arms around the man, and the girl couldn't see it after staring, so she slowly retracted out of sight.
Xu Jinwen talked to Mr. Xu Ge all the way, which made Mr. Xu Ge happy. He was in a good mood, but he talked too much, and his mouth was thirsty. When he arrived at the main hall, he saw Zhou Xiuyao who was in the first place at a glance, and his eyes lit up. , he was the prince's companion, so naturally he wanted to follow the prince, so he told Xu Ge and left.
After arriving behind Zhou Xiuyao, he stood still, bowed his hands in a polite salute: "Your Highness, your subordinate is back."
Zhou Xiuyao hummed, but didn't say much.
Only then did Xu Jinwen stand up straight, and after standing for a while, the sequelae of talking too much before came up, his mouth was so thirsty, he couldn't help but glanced at the cup in front of Zhou Xiuyao.
Probably because Xu Jinwen's eyes were too focused, Zhou Xiuyao raised his eyes sideways: "Thirsty?"
He had seen Xu Jinwen talking nonstop before, so he naturally guessed it.
Xu Jinwen nodded.
Zhou Xiuyao hummed: "Xiao Shunzi, pour Xu Ban a cup of tea."
Xiao Shunzi responded, and was about to make a move, but Xu Jinwen was so thirsty, he saw the nearest half cup: "No need, no need, this will do."
Before the two could react, they drank it in one gulp, and only then did they feel alive again.
After finishing drinking, I saw Xiao Shunzi's stunned eyes: "Xu, Xu companion reading...that, that's the palace..." His highness drank...
But this was interrupted by Zhou Xiuyao, he took a deep look at the young man, especially his red lips soaked in tea, his pupils shrank, and he said slowly, "Are you still thirsty?"
Xu Jinwen shook his head, "I'm not thirsty anymore, I'm not thirsty anymore."
This is outside, so it can't be so big or small, he is still very measured.
Zhou Xiuyao's eyes deepened, with regret that Xu Jinwen couldn't understand.
Xu Jinwen: "???"
At this moment, a chanting sounded: "The emperor is here—the empress is here—the concubine Lian is here—"
Xu Jinwen's curiosity was immediately aroused: pity the noble concubine, he has been in the palace for so long, and finally met the rumored noble concubine.
