The emperor plays a rogue: a cute little gambling concubine

Chapter 109 The food should not be too bland

Frowning and drinking all the bitter Chinese medicine, Sun Xiaoxi can finally put down the medicine bowl.

Lian Zichen watched her finish drinking the traditional Chinese medicine with a blank expression, and when she put down the medicine bowl, he reached out to pick up the candied lotus seeds that the maid had already prepared.

"Come on, eat it, this is your reward." He handed the candied lotus seeds in front of her.

There was bitterness in her mouth, and Sun Xiaoxi didn't want to be polite to him, so she snatched the candied lotus seeds from his hand, and she twisted two of them and put them in her mouth.

The sweet taste of sugar melted in her mouth, driving away the bitter traditional Chinese medicine. Sun Xiaoxi chewed the lotus seeds while chewing on them. The sweet taste could drive away the depression in her heart, and her mood improved a lot in an instant.

Seeing her satisfied face, Lian Zichen couldn't help feeling amused.

How many candied lotus seeds can satisfy her like this?

The maid packed up the medicine bowl and left, and Sun Xiaoxi lay down to sleep after drinking the medicine.

She found that since she came to ancient times, she was either injured or sick, as if she was born to be a medicine jar, obviously she is so healthy that she can be alive and kicking every day in modern times.

Seeing her lying down to rest, Lian Zichen didn't bother her anymore, turned around and wanted to go out, but heard her surprised voice.

"where are you going?"

He stopped and looked back at her silently.

Sun Xiaoxi realized that she was too dependent on him, bit her lower lip regretfully, and quickly argued: "I mean, you are the only person I know in this palace, are you going to throw me in this strange place?" Don't you care about the place?"

Lian Zichen chuckled, turned around and walked back to the bed, looking down at her panicked face, "So, you want me to be by your side?"

Sun Xiaoxi pursed her lips and looked around erratically, but she didn't dare to look into his eyes and didn't answer his question.

Seeing that she was silent, Lian Zichen didn't force her, turned around, stepped out of the guest room without even looking at her.

The door creaked open and closed, Sun Xiaoxi sighed depressedly, lay down, she pulled the quilt over and covered her face.

Lian Zichen walked out of the guest room and went back to his own room to change clothes for the morning. In order to take care of that girl, he didn't close his eyes all night. He was so crazy that he wasted his time like this for a woman.

"My lord." The butler's voice came from the door.

Lian Zichen was changing clothes, he was not nervous when he heard the sound, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My lord, the palace has sent someone to inform me that I can't go to court today."

"Not going to court?" Lian Zichen pursed her lips, thought for a while, and asked, "Did the person come explain the reason?"

"Going back to the prince, it's not there, but I heard that Concubine Xiao in the palace is missing, the emperor was so anxious that he sent half of the imperial guards to look for it."

in a hurry?Faster than he thought.Lian Zichen thought a little funny.

"The king knows, you step back."

"Yes, my lord."

"Wait!" Thinking of something, Lian Zichen called to the butler again, "Block the news that the emperor is looking for the concubine, no matter how noisy the streets are, there is no need for any news to spread from the palace."

The butler was a little confused, but since the prince told him so, then he just listened.

"The old slave knows, everything will be done according to the prince's order."

Lian Zichen changed his clothes and walked out of the room. Since he didn't need to go to the morning court, he would spend more time with the little concubine in the room.

The corners of his mouth curled up happily, and he thought to himself: No matter how the Yulin army searched, Lian Jing would never be able to find Sun Xiaoxi, because no one dared to search casually in his palace.

It was noon when Sun Xiaoxi woke up, her confused eyes met a pair of smiling eyes, she rubbed her eyes and sat up, pointing to Lian Zichen who was sitting by the bed and looking at her in a good mood.

"You...Why are you here?" She remembered that he left in the morning, intending to let her fend for herself in the strange palace.

Regarding her silly question, Lian Zichen smiled and said nothing, raised his hand to cover her forehead, took a nap after drinking the medicine, the fever did subside a lot.

Withdrawing his hand, he asked her with a gentle and elegant face, "Are you hungry? My king asked the kitchen to prepare food for you."

Have something to eat? !Sun Xiaoxi's eyes lit up, and her saliva almost flowed out indecently.

Turning his eyes, he recalled the last time when he was ill and had a fever, Lian Jing and Xiao Si conspired to force her to drink porridge every day, now...

Lian Zichen said that what he was going to eat was also porridge, right?Sun Xiaoxi speculated a little depressed.

Looking at Sun Xiaoxi's face with ever-changing expressions, Lian Zichen found it extremely interesting, getting along with her, even if he didn't talk, just looking at her ever-changing expressions could make people feel happy for a while.

"Aren't you hungry?" Seeing that she didn't answer for a long time, Lian Zichen asked back.

If people mistakenly think that they are not hungry, wouldn't they even have to eat porridge?

Sun Xiaoxi quickly shook her head and waved her hands, "Hungry! I'm very hungry!"

With a puff, Lian Zichen couldn't help laughing.

Looking at Lian Zichen's wanton smiling face, Sun Xiaoxi felt that her IQ had been insulted, her complexion darkened, and she asked him angrily, "Why are you smiling so exaggeratedly?"

Swinging his big hand into a fist and putting it around his mouth to cover up his smile, Lian Zichen coughed and disguised himself as Mr. Pianpian again.

"Okay, since you're so hungry, I'll ask someone to prepare something for you." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to go out.

"Wait a minute!" she called to him again.

Lian Zichen frowned and turned to look at her, "What do you want?"

Sun Xiaoxi grabbed the quilt with her hands awkwardly, she pouted, and said in a low voice, "Food, it's better not to be too bland..."

"Besides not being too bland, some meat is the best, right?" Lian Zichen said what she most wanted to say in her heart.

Sun Xiaoxi raised her eyes to look at him, with a wicked smile on the corner of her mouth, and the big words "the one who knows me is Ruo Lian Zichen" were written all over her fair face.

Lian Zichen took a deep look at her, sighed, shook his head, turned and walked out of the guest room.
