As soon as the meal was finished early in the morning, Xie Zhaorong sent someone to take Li Jieyou to the palace.

"Come on, come and sit down." Xie Zhaorong took Li Jieyou's hand with a smile on his face, looked at the sponge cake on the table and said, "Try it, it is said to be made according to Nan Chu's method, I don't know how it tastes Is it authentic or not?"

"Yes, thank you, Queen Mother." Li Jieyou kissed his thin lips and took a small bite, the softness really felt like home.

"How about it, isn't it almost there?"

Xie Zhaorong's smile was harmless at this time, just looking at it from the outside, he looked like a kind elder.

Li Jieyou shook his head, and said softly: "It's delicious, very similar to the taste of Erchen's hometown."

"That's good. I was afraid that you wouldn't like it before I came." For some reason, Xie Zhaorong looked at Li Jieyou at this time and thought of her former self. At her age, the palace was surrounded by ambushes. If it wasn't for the last After working hard, how could I have the current status.

"We are all women, and mothers also know that you are suffering. Yunsi is the flesh that fell from my body. I know her temper best. You have just been married, and you must have suffered a lot. Wronged." Xie Zhaorong sighed and said again: "But then again, why can't there be no bitterness in the stomach of the mother, those women next to her are nameless after all, no matter how proud they are, they will be servants after all. If you can't stand even these things, what should you do if Yun Si allows others to come in later, since you are the princess of Qin Jiang, you should put on a tough stance and stand up to your majesty." She pursed her mouth Tea "A man, it's nothing more than a curiosity-seeking mentality. When you've had enough fun, you'll take it easy. At that time, your husband will still be your husband, and you won't be left to handle all the affairs of the house. Do you think that's the reason?"

Li Jieyou pursed his lips tightly, turned his eyes to the muffin on the table, nodded after a while and said: "My son understands, let the queen mother worry about it."

"It's the best thing you can understand."

After chatting a few more homely words, it was almost noon when Li Jieyou returned to the palace from the palace.As soon as he walked to the corner, just as he wanted Qing Ya to push open the door first, a figure rushed towards him, immediately knocking Li Jieyou into a stagger. About to fall to the ground.

"Bold servant girl! You don't even have eyes when you walk! Can you bear the burden of hitting the princess!!" Qing Ya glared at the person who bumped into him just now. Chu Lai said, "I don't know who it is, so it's you who don't have eyes! You still don't kneel down to salute when you see the princess!"

Lian'er straightened up, without the slightest intention of saluting. Originally, she thought it was cold outside, so she quickened her pace. This happened without realizing it. If she really wanted to come here, she looked up at Qingya, "My lord You have never taught me like this, what are you, you are a dog!"

"You—" Qing Ya was about to start cursing back when she was stopped by Li Jieyou.

Li Jieyou looked at Lianer in front of him coldly, and shouted, "Kneel down! You are the prince's man, but you can't tolerate being presumptuous in front of me. Where's the housekeeper?!"

The butler hurried over and glanced at Lian Er viciously, "I don't know what's good or bad!" Then he knelt down in front of Li Jieyou and said cowardly: "The old slave is here."

"What should I do if the servant contradicts the princess?"

"If you go back to the princess, you will slap your mouth twenty times, and you will be fined for two months."

"Then what should I do if I don't know how to discipline my subordinates?" Li Jieyou said, squinting at Butler Xu who was kneeling on the ground.

Butler Xu paused for a moment, kowtowed quickly and said, "You should be fined for three months."

"Just do as the butler says!" Li Jieyou turned and went back to his room.

Qing Ya closed the door, patted and said: "It's so satisfying, the princess should have done this a long time ago!" Thinking of Lian'er's embarrassing look just now, she couldn't stop being happy.

Li Jieyou didn't make a sound, and sat silently in front of the piano case, staring at the broken string of the guqin, tears could not help but fall down.

"Princess, don't cry!" The sound of tears dripping was like a sharp knife, not only piercing Li Jieyou's heart, but also hurt Qing Ya, "If you cry again, Qing Ya can't help it anymore. "

Li Jieyou slowly caressed Qing Ya's head, "I've wronged you for following me."

Qing Ya wiped away the tears on her face, and shook her head desperately, "As long as you can follow the princess, you won't be wronged no matter what!"

Lian'er was dragged to the backyard by the housekeeper and a few older cooks, one of twenty slaps failed, and the palms were strong, and she could still feel the pain at first, but she lost consciousness after too many slaps.After returning to the room, Lian'er didn't care about her face first, but went to the drawer and threw all the sore medicine inside into the bucket, and then slowly took out the bronze mirror, looking at the red and swollen ones. Suddenly, an unknown smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

When Huo Yunsi returned to the mansion, it was already dark, and almost all the lights in the yard were dark, but there was still a faint light on the west side of the house. It was Lianer's room, and she should be asleep at this hour on weekdays. That's right.

Pushing open the door, a gust of cold wind rushed over, and when I looked up, I saw a person sitting upright inside the bed curtain.

"Why is this room so cold, isn't there a fire today?" Huo Yunsi rubbed his hands while walking in, and was about to lift the curtain after speaking.

"Don't." Lian'er's voice was a little hoarse, as if she had just cried.

Huo Yunsi raised his eyebrows, ignored the obstruction of the people in the bed curtain, and suddenly lifted the gauze curtain, "Turn your head."

Lian'er bit her lips desperately, but she still couldn't suppress the low sobbing sound, and Huo Yunsi heard everything, and turned her face slowly, crying out with tears in her eyes, " Prince~"

An extremely red and swollen face immediately fell into Huo Yunsi's eyes, and the slap marks on his face could still be seen clearly, "What's going on?"

"It's all Lianer's fault. I accidentally bumped into the princess and got beaten. It's all Lianer's fault."

Huo Yunsi didn't say much, just sighed silently, looked at the red marks on her face, turned her head and looked around the room, "Have you applied the medicine yet?"

Lian'er wiped away the tears on her face, and shook her head, "There is no medicine for sores in the maidservant's room."

"Come here!" Huo Yunsi pushed open the door and called the night guard maid, "Bring some golden sore medicine."

Huo Yunsi took the medicine for sores, and lit two more candlesticks, and the whole room was brightly lit up.

"Hiss—" Lian'er took a light breath.

"Be patient." Huo Yunsi came out with some medicine powder and applied it gently on the red and swollen areas.

After applying the medicine, Huo Yunsi put down the bed curtain again, but he backed out, turned his head and blew out the candlestick beside him.

Lian'er couldn't see her face in the dark, it was just a flickering figure, which made her a little bit at a loss. If she didn't care about herself, why did she give herself medicine, but if she cared about herself, then what does it mean now.Ever since, Lian'er had the courage to look up at the figure in the darkness, and said in a waxy voice, "Isn't your lord still going to bed?"

Huo Yunsi put his hands behind his back, and without looking at Lian'er, he said indifferently, "You have to rest, it's important to recover from your injuries." After finishing speaking, he opened the door and walked out without waiting for the person behind him to answer.

"Princess, it's snowing!" It was the first time for Qing Ya to see snow at such a big age, the original sleepiness disappeared all of a sudden, and her eyes were full of excitement.

Although it is not the first time for Li Jieyou to see snow, it is the first time to enjoy snow at night. The gentleness of the moonlight sets off the snowflakes, which is quite artistic. He stretched out his hand to catch the falling snowflakes and let them Beautiful, let it melt "You know what life is like everywhere, it should be like Feihong stepping on slush."

"The princess is in a good mood."

A sudden hoarse sound made Li Jieyou startled.

"Servants see the prince." Seeing that it was Huo Yunsi, Qing Ya thought of what happened to Lian'er today, and suddenly cried out inwardly, this prince didn't come to embarrass the princess, did he?

Huo Yunsi looked at the falling snowflakes, and said in a low voice: "The snow in Northern Qi is like this. It always likes to fall when you are unprepared. Is it the same in Nanchu?"

Li Jieyou shook his head and tugged on his cloak, "Never has such a heavy snowfall in Nanchu, and occasionally some of them have melted before they formed."

Huo Yunsi lowered his body and brushed off the falling snow on the stone bench, and sat on it, "It's so late that the princess is still awake, but what's on your mind?"

Li Jieyou looked at Huo Yunsi's indifferent look, needless to say, she could guess that she must have known about punishing Lian'er today, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, so she couldn't help but come to Xingshi to question her?

"What's on my mind, doesn't the prince know?"

Huo Yunsi was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and saw Qing Ya standing aside, coughed a few times, "You step back first."

Qingya looked back at Li Jieyou step by step, her eyes were full of worry, and took advantage of the darkness to find a hiding place not far away to hide, thinking that if something happened, she would hurry over there as soon as possible.

Seeing that Qingya was walking away, Huo Yunsi got up and walked to Li Jieyou's side, brushed the white snow off her shoulders with his hand, and said, "It's cold outside, let's go back to the house first."

"Let's be cold, anyway, it won't be so warm when we go back to the house."

Huo Yunsi looked at the guarded man under the faint moonlight, and sighed inaudibly, "Is this king really so hateful in your eyes?"

"How could the lord be hateful? I'm just a concubine who is out of control, a woman who is not favored, what is there to care about?"

"Not to be favored? Does the princess care about such things?"

Li Jieyou raised his eyes to look at Huo Yunsi, bit his lips tightly, and the anger in his heart couldn't stop rising, "Although I can't be favored by a concubine, she is at least the princess of Qinjiang. A mere slave is nothing."

Huo Yunsi shook his head, took a few steps closer, stretched out his hand to wrap the person in front of him in his arms, wrapped her fingers in his palm, and said softly: "This king knows that the princess is magnanimous, but it's getting late now. The snow is getting bigger and bigger, if we still stay here, I'm afraid both of us will freeze to death."

Li Jieyou forcefully pulled out the hand that was tightly held in her palm, leaned forward and said with a little anger: "The prince is teasing the concubine again. It is not all a matter of the prince's words to enter the house. When will it be the concubine's turn?" I'm in charge."
