Overlord's Road to Ancient Emperors

Kou Xiao is really busy recently, he came back to sit for a while, had dinner and then left, a thought flashed in Li Xu's mind, if the two were husband and wife, given how busy they are, they might be able to get together all year round Not much, it's not like a perfect and harmonious family.

After thinking about it, he was stunned, since when did he actually treat Kou Xiao as his family.

Perhaps Kou Xiao has lived together for a long time, Li Xu is used to letting the kitchen make more meals for one person, and is used to counting Kou Xiao's preferences when ordering, even if there are delicious food at home, he will specially leave it for him. One copy, this is not the attitude you should have towards ordinary friends.

Fortunately, Li Xu is also busy, so he doesn't have much time to think about relationship issues. With the current state of the two of them, they are probably more friends than lovers.

He doesn't struggle anymore, love is only a small part of life, just let it be, even if he really wants to get together with Kou Xiao, it's nothing, it's just a matter of paying more attention to family issues.

He Zun stood in front of Li Xu abruptly, startling Li Xu who was distracted. Fortunately, his mask reflected light, otherwise he would not know how long he would stand.

He laughed and scolded: "Can you change your silent problem? I don't need to be scared."

He Zun teased: "With your Sichun appearance just now, you can't hear your subordinates beating the gongs and drums."

"You're out of order." Li Xu pointed at him, instead of being angry, he was a little relieved. It's been almost a year, and He Zun finally looks like he's about to come out.

"Tell me, what gossip have you heard?"

He Zunyan said succinctly: "Two things, first, General Kou said that he likes a man and never marries, I don't know who spread it, including the matter of recruiting a concubine in the mansion, Kou's mansion is in a state of desperation; It is rumored that General Kou is now living with the prince, and he has passed Ming Lu's Qi brothers, and it is rumored that you and General Kou sleep in each other's arms every night, like a phoenix or a phoenix."

Li Xu was so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry, "Are they still saying that it's no wonder that there is no woman around this king, and it's no wonder that this king has rejected all the in-laws who want to marry this king?"

He Zun nodded, and said gloatingly, "You know in your heart that if two bachelors live together, and one of them expresses that he likes men, he must be suspected."

Li Xu thought to himself: How did I know that Kou Xiao could say such things openly, but it is indeed his character.

But this is not the first time this kind of thing happened. It was rumored that Liu Shu was his male favourite, and Ji Hanyu was his male favourite. I don’t know why these people always arrange male favourites for him. Is it because he has no women around him? ?

No, it's no wonder that there have been many young and beautiful maids in the mansion recently. Liu Shu must have known about this, and even secretly gave him a favor. I guess he can immediately propose an aunt to the other party if he takes a second look. identity.

While talking, Liu Shu also came back, covered in dust, but with a bright smile on his face, he said happily after entering the door: "My lord, the new palace is about to be completed, when will you go and see it with your slaves."

"Hey, is it so fast? Isn't it next month?"

Liu Shu didn't take credit for it at all, "They all remember your kindness to the people. They will find time to help after they are busy with summer broadcasting. This picks up some soil, that one moves some bricks, and the speed is very fast. Now they are short of some furniture and furniture. As for the decorations in the garden, it is up to you to elaborate."

"Okay, let's go take a look together tomorrow and call the little princess and Madam Qian. They haven't seen the appearance of their new home yet." Li Xu was also very excited. A large manor and mansion with an area of ​​over [-]. I haven't dared to expect it for many years.

"The little princess will be overjoyed when she sees the amusement park you designed for her." Liu Shu said sweetly, "To ensure safety, I have tried everything. Tomorrow, the little princess can play as much as she wants. .”

Li Xu took off the weeds on his head, and laughed so hard, "No wonder I came back so late today, I've had so much fun I can't think of leaving!"

Liu Shu blushed slightly, bent down and said falteringly: "Slave... I just haven't seen it before, I'm so curious."

Li Xu helped him up, "It doesn't matter, if you want to play in the future, just play, you are still a child."

Liu Shu thought that Li Xu was teasing him, and his expression became even more shy. He is going to be the chief executive, how could he be a child!

"Hurry up and wash up and have a full meal, and then come here to apologize, think about what good things you have done." Li Xu drove people out, looked at He Zun, and laughed.

Liu Shu soaked in the water full of apprehension, thinking about what he had done wrong and would have to take the blame. It shouldn't be a big deal to see the prince's face, otherwise he wouldn't have such an attitude.

He wrinkled his skin and didn't even think about it. He got up and put on his clothes and passed on the meal. The new maids were all carefully selected by him, and they were all beautiful, and the one serving him was no exception.

Liu Shu stared at the man for a while, suddenly realized, and asked, "Did Hua Die go to see the prince today?"

The little servant girl was startled, she quickly knelt down and said, "Go back to the manager, Sister Huadie has been to the study this afternoon."

Liu Shu's eyes changed, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Did something happen? Did the prince say anything?"

This matter has already spread throughout the whole house, even if Liu Shu doesn't ask now, he will know later, the little maid dared not lie, and told what she knew, "Sister Huadie came out crying, her skirt was also wet , She locked herself in the room after she came out, and the sister who shared the room with her said that the prince told her not to appear in front of him in the future."

Everyone thought that the lord's words meant Hua Die's death, but it was just that Manager Liu didn't come back and nobody carried it out.

In other words, in a corner that Li Xu didn't know about, the little girl who was kicked out of the study by him was waiting to die.

Liu Shu slammed the table down, "This little bastard must have acted outrageously based on his beauty, he really deserves death!"

The little maid was trembling with fright from the cruelty in his tone. The group of them who entered the mansion all had a dream of soaring to the sky. Back then, Director Liu picked the most beautiful flowers and butterflies to serve the prince and they still enjoyed it. However, I didn't expect to be rejected by the prince so soon.

At this moment, the little maid completely stopped thinking about climbing up.

Liu Shu couldn't afford to eat, so he went to Hua Die to ask about the process with a gloomy face, and after listening to her crying, he fell into deep thought.

Based on his understanding of the prince, this matter is not a big one, even if he wets the prince's clothes, he will definitely not be scolded, so the key to this matter may lie in General Kou. Could it be that the prince is afraid that General Kou will misunderstand Just to drive the butterfly away?

When he came back this time, he found that the prince and General Kou were too close, and that kind of closeness was not only the trust in his subordinates, but also mixed with other personal feelings.

Coupled with the rumors outside, Liu Shucai dared to recruit a group of beautiful maids into the mansion, hoping to let the prince see more beauties, and don't be fooled by Kou Xiao's wild wolf. If the prince fell in love with someone for a while, he would be lucky Who, then he must publicize it with great fanfare, so that the whole city can see that his prince and General Kou are not that kind of relationship.

"Boss Liu, you must save your servant, I don't want to die! You can make your servant a cow or a horse, or sell it into a kiln. I beg you to save this servant!"

Liu Shu looked at the distorted face from crying, and felt disgusted in his heart. Why did he think that this face could enter the eyes of the prince, because he must be blind.

Liu Shu shook off her hand and snorted coldly: "Shut up, no one is going to kill you, stop crying here and stay in the room obediently."

Liu Shu slammed the door and ran away to Li Xu's yard.Li Xu was kicking shuttlecock with the little princess. He played a lot and his skills improved a lot, which made the little princess applaud.

Seeing Liu Shu come in with his head drooping, Li Xu kicked the shuttlecock back to the little princess and waved to him, "Come here, tell me, what's been on your mind lately?"

Liu Shu suddenly cried aggrievedly, threw himself in front of Li Xu's feet, grabbed his trousers and cried, "My lord, there are some bad rumors about you outside, and so does this slave...Damn this slave, I think this will be calmed down soon. Because of rumors, I chose a few beauties on my own initiative, I didn't expect them to be so unbearable."

Li Xu kicked him lightly, "Get up first, don't wipe your tears and snot on my trousers." He pointed at Liu Shu's forehead and said: "Boss Liu is capable, dare to find a beauty for me privately." , let a group of cute little girls come in, do you think this king is not busy enough?"

"My lord, I know I was wrong." Liu Shu said with his head down.

"If you know your mistakes, correct them. Are those little girls on the right track? Don't buy them from somewhere."

Liu Shu shook his head in fright, "Slaves don't dare, most of them were brought by Ren Yazi, and a few were brought by foreign merchants, who are said to be maids trained since childhood."

"Tsk." Li Xu didn't need to think about the purpose of a maid, he really didn't like this one, even if he likes women, he would choose the one that is pleasing to the eye and chats with.

"Let a few dignified ones stay, and return the rest. Each of them will compensate five taels of silver. Tell those people that it's not because they did something wrong that there are no beautiful maids in this palace."

Liu Shu also wanted to talk about General Kou, but he had just done something wrong and didn't have the courage to mention it, so he agreed, "Don't worry, it will be done tomorrow."

It's not that Li Xu can't keep a few beautiful maids. He used to have many beautiful women as secretaries and assistants. He just didn't want to be distracted by the affairs of the backyard at this stall, and he didn't want Kou Xiao to be angry because of a few women.

Maybe he didn't even realize that he put Kou Xiao in a very important position, he would consider his mood, and change his mood because of his emotions.

"It's bad, it's bad! Huadie hanged herself!" Someone outside the courtyard yelled, and then saw a servant girl kneeling outside the courtyard gate with disheveled clothes, her forehead on the ground, and tremblingly said: "Mr. ...My lord, Hua Huadie..."

Seeing that she couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time, Liu Shu turned around and rushed out of the yard. Li Xu frowned, and was shocked after hearing the maid's second sentence, and walked out with He Zun.

Xiyuan is not big, and Li Xu knew where the maids lived, and it was only a few steps away. The courtyard was in a mess, and the servants all ran over. Seeing Li Xu's appearance, he hurriedly retreated to the side and knelt down.

Li Xu ignored them, and hurried into the room. A pink belt hanging from the beam was particularly eye-catching, with a knot at the head and tail. It's not hard to imagine what it would have been like before.

Liu Shu shouted, "Go and call Dr. Yan."

Li Xu walked over and saw the maid who was driven away by him in the afternoon lying on the bed. At this time, her complexion was pale, her eyes were slightly protruding, the corners of her mouth were drooling, and a bruise on her neck was particularly obvious. Further down, Li Xu saw Her chest rose and fell rapidly, knowing that she was still angry.

He asked incredulously: "Just because this king won't let her serve in front of me, she will seek her own death?" What's the reason for this?

Li Xu almost became a murderer, he just felt more wronged than Dou E, if the maids around him were in this state of mind, he would not need maids in the future.

There were still a few maids kneeling in the room, all of whom heard the news and came to help. At this time, they were lying on the ground and did not dare to move. Hearing Li Xu's question, a courageous maid raised her head and said with a sob: "My lord Yingming, Sister Huadie thought...that you wanted her life, she was terrified, that's why she did something stupid."

Li Xu glared at Liu Shu first, and said helplessly: "When did this king say that he wanted her life, but he just didn't want her to serve in front of him."

Liu Shu bit the bullet and explained: "It's the slave's fault. I don't know if she misunderstood what you meant, but the slave also said that the prince is magnanimous and just let her stay in the house and not go out."

Yan Chen came soon, Li Xu stepped aside and stared at him seriously for diagnosis.

He was afraid that Yan Chen was too young, so he ordered someone to invite two more medical craftsmen. Except Yan Chen who lived in Xiyuan, the medical craftsmen Li Xu bought halfway lived in the old palace.

Yan Chen carefully checked her neck and pulse, heaved a sigh of relief, got up and said, "My lord, this sister's life is not in danger, fortunately she was rescued early, and it would have been too late."

Li Xu also heaved a sigh of relief. If someone lost his life because of this kind of thing, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep at night. "You can decide how to treat it. Use whatever you want. Make sure to cure the person."

Yan Chen agreed, took a medicine bottle from the medicine box and wiped the medicine on her neck, and said while wiping: "Her throat is badly damaged. I'm afraid she won't be able to speak for the past month, and it will be difficult to swallow. She can only take medicine." Order soup, soup and water, you have to take care of it carefully."

Li Xu stood for a while, knowing that he couldn't help, so he walked out of the room. He stood in the yard for a while, looking around at the servants who were still kneeling, especially the new beautiful maidservants, who took Liu The tree shouted to him, and said in a deep voice, "What I told you before doesn't count, so there's no need to send him back."

He could imagine what would happen to these women after he sent them back. Even if he told the other party that these people did not make a mistake, who would believe it.

Forget it, it's just a few maidservants, it doesn't matter if they are handsome or not, he is upright and not afraid of the shadow, if Kou Xiao minds, they can all be sent to other places for business.

Liu Shu cried, "It's all the slave's fault. It's causing trouble to the prince. You should deal with the slave."

Li Xu knocked on his head and warned: "It's okay for you to think about this king, but this method is really not advisable. I know what you think. I thought it was just a few maidservants. If nothing happens, even if something happens. It’s nothing more than death, nothing more.”

Li Xu didn't really want to talk about it anymore, he and Liu Shu were not from the same world at all, and their concepts must be different, and this time was also an accident, what's wrong with Liu Shu!

He entrusted Liu Shu with the full power to recruit people. After the candidates came in, they had been trained. There was no other difference except that they were beautiful. Are you in bed?

What's more, the sentence that caused the other party to commit suicide was said by himself, who can be blamed?

"Forget it, send someone to take good care of her. When she recovers, send her to the capital. You can tell each of them to work in peace and order in the mansion. The king will not treat them badly, but if you have other ideas, Kill this heart as soon as possible."

"Yes, the servant knows."

"Also, you don't have to worry about Kou Xiao's affairs. The rumors outside change every day, can you handle it? Does this king still care about such rumors?"

"But..." Liu Shu raised his head and said firmly, "But General Kou really treats you..."

Li Xu turned his face away in embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "This is a matter between me and him, and I will handle it myself."

"No, I understand." Liu Shu understood at this moment. His prince was not ruthless to General Kou, so he did too much of these things. How stupid. Can't see through.

＊＊＊＊＊＊

At night, after Li Xu fell asleep, He Zun took a jug of wine and went to Liu Shu's room. Seeing him sitting beside the bed and weeping silently, he joked, "Still sad!"

Liu Shu wiped his face and said in a muffled voice, "It's not sad, it's shame. My father-in-law has never done such a bad thing. It's too shameful."

He Zun put the jug on the table, took a teacup, poured a cup and handed it to him, "Come on, just take a nap after drinking it, and just correct it after you know the mistake."

Liu Shu smelled the aroma of the wine and asked in surprise, "Where did you get the wine?"

He Zun also poured himself a glass, took a sip, the taste rushed into his stomach, he was not used to it, it was really too long since he had drunk, and he actually found it unpalatable.

"It was given by someone else." He Zun replied ambiguously.He sat across from Liu Shu and didn't talk much to him, just drank silently. Kou Xiao gave him the pot of wine privately, and he didn't know if he wanted to bribe him or what, anyway, it didn't matter, so he just took it away. up.

Liu Shu also had a drink. He rarely drank alcohol. As a slave, he had to stay awake all the time and wait for the summons. He never dared to indulge himself.

When he was in the palace before, although he was trusted by the prince, the palace was too complicated and dangerous, and he would lose his life if he was not careful. After following the prince to South Vietnam, he became presumptuous. He has missed his mark.Especially after coming back this time, he was indeed a little too presumptuous, even daring to make decisions about the prince's private affairs, so it's no wonder the prince is angry.

After a few glasses of wine, Liu Shu also calmed down, and quietly asked He Zun: "Master He, you have always been by Wang Ye's side, do you know what happened to Wang Ye and General Kou?"

He Zun glanced at him calmly, "This is the master's own business, what are you doing so much?"

"Isn't this curious? And don't you think it's bad? Our goal is to return to the capital. If the prince and General Kou are really... what will we do in the future?"

He Zun asked him without beginning or end: "Are you smart or the prince is smart?"

"Of course the prince is smart, my elm head, hey!"

"That's fine. As long as the prince wants to do it, he will naturally solve the problem. No one can force him. As slaves, we just need to obey the orders."

"You are not a slave, Mr. He, I haven't seen your face for a long time, can you let me take a look?" I don't know if he was drunk, but Liu Shu dared to make such a request.

He Zun took off his mask without hesitation, and exposed his true face to Liu Shu.

Liu Shu hasn't seen He Zun's face for a long time. Compared with the last time, it's really much better. He stretched out his hand to touch it, and whispered, "It's much better. It's not scary without wearing a mask. I've worn a lot." Pearl powder, share it with you, it will definitely be useful if you apply it every day."

He Zun looked at his white face, nodded, and thought: Maybe it will really be useful.

The two drank a pot of wine, and Liu Shu was already so drunk that he passed out. He Zun sat on the seat for a while, and felt a little cold, so he squeezed into Liu Shu's bed and slept together.
