Peach Blossom Makeup

Chapter 171 Princess: I want my palace to serve you, get out!
Concubine Luo lay on a person-length soft pillow embroidered with white magnolia flowers on a pink cherry background. The lake green skirt spread out like a green lotus blooming in the rippling water, making her look as charming as a lotus.

Concubine Luo felt drowsy as the carriage swayed and gurgled. She lazily propped her head up and asked Shouyang suddenly, "Auntie, how can a person not be able to get himself, but be inseparable from him?" open?"

As an older maid, Shouyang entered the palace when she was in her teens. Although she has never experienced love, she has seen a lot in the deep palace, and she naturally understands many things.

She smiled and fed Concubine Luo some warm flower and fruit tea, wiped the corners of her mouth, and then replied, "First of all, this person must have you in his heart. Hope, when you see that you can get it with your hands, then leave, so that you can’t get it and can’t leave it.”

Concubine Luo thought about Qin Shou, the key point was that this man's mind was as deep as the sea, she didn't even know if he had her in his heart.

Shouyang actually understood who she was asking, so he said again, "But it doesn't matter whether this person has you in his heart. If he has you, it's naturally best. If he doesn't, then let him have it."

Seeing that Concubine Luo was still frowning, she handed over half a piece of red date and chestnut cake to touch Concubine Luo's lips, Concubine Luo opened her mouth accordingly, rolled her small pink tongue, and bit the chestnut cake into her mouth.

Concubine Luo swallowed the chestnut cake slowly, then signaled to Shouyang to feed her some tea, and then said, "This chestnut cake with red dates is fresh, I will eat another piece."

Shouyang's eyes flickered slightly, she continued to feed, and Concubine Luo slowly ate, with a leisurely and comfortable appearance, and narrowed peach eyes, like feet rolling over, belly retracting claws, only the pink pads were exposed The milk cat basking in the sun just wants to be rubbed hard.

Seeing that Concubine Luo ate two or three yuan, Shouyang stopped feeding. She thought of something suddenly, clapped her hands and said, "The servant girl told the princess that the red dates and chestnut cakes were made early in the morning. The son-in-law sent it."

Concubine Luo glanced at her, not believing it at all.

Shouyang smiled again, lowered his head, and said to Concubine Luo in a low voice, "It was just dawn, and the servant saw the son-in-law coming out of the dining room. Although the chestnut cake was also wrapped in oiled paper, the servant girl had sharp eyes and saw the son-in-law. The sleeves are stained with chestnut powder, and the whole body is full of the sweet smell of chestnut cake."

Concubine Luo's peach blossom eyes widened in an instant, black and white were clear and dewy.

Under the watchful eyes of those peach blossom eyes, Shouyang's smile became deeper and deeper, "So, the maid thought that this red date and chestnut cake was made by the concubine for the princess. It didn't open."

These words were shocking, Concubine Luo immediately choked on a mouthful of saliva, she curled up and coughed continuously, her little face flushed red.

Perhaps Qin Shou who was outside the carriage heard the movement, he tapped on the wall of the carriage lightly with his fingers, and then raised the curtain of the carriage to look in.

Concubine Luo turned her head and met him.

She froze for a moment, thinking back to what Shou Yanggang said, but Qin Shou glanced at the chestnut cake spread out on the small case. He seemed to understand everything, so he raised his eyebrows and said, "Princess won't Do you think that the pastry was made by Jiuzhou himself and eaten by the princess?"

Concubine Luo didn't nod or shake her head, she just rolled her eyes and looked at Shouyang.

Shouyang coughed lightly and quickly lowered his head.

Qin Shou was riding on a tall horse. He wanted to talk to Concubine Luo, so he had to bend slightly and lower his head. Not to mention the awkward posture, he felt uncomfortable.

Concubine Luo saw him put down the curtain of the carriage, and his voice could be vaguely heard outside, "Princess is thinking too much, this morning Kyushu just went to the dining room to have breakfast first, and by the way, let someone heat up the chestnut cake I bought yesterday. I don’t want the princess’s Gong’e to see it, after all, if a big man eats this kind of soft and glutinous snack, it will hurt his face, so Jiuzhou gave the chestnut cake to the princess’s Gong’e.”

Shouyang frowned. When she saw the son-in-law this morning, it was definitely not what the son-in-law said. At that time, he was covered in fireworks, not only his sleeves, but also his fingertips were still stained with chestnut powder. It was clearly when the chestnuts were crushed into powder Stained.

She looked at Concubine Luo, seeing the princess's angry face, she raised her hand and threw the chestnut cake on the small case out of the carriage, but she couldn't stop her.

Then the princess glared at her and said, "Don't send these unclear things to this palace again in the future!"

The voice was not low, just enough for Qin Shou who was outside the carriage to hear clearly.

Holding the rein in his hand, he lowered his eyes and glanced at the chestnut cake on the ground inexplicably. After being stained with dust, it no longer smelled sweet. He frowned slightly, as if he was sighing softly, but soon his face was expressionless again.

Shouyang also sighed, she pulled Concubine Luo, fortunately she was loyal to the princess, so it is better to tell the truth about such things.

She leaned close to Concubine Luo's ear, and explained in detail what she had seen, heard, and guessed.

Concubine Luo blinked her eyes, she glanced at the small case, and when she saw the empty case, she felt a little regretful, regardless of whether it was made by Qin Shou, why should she have trouble with eating.

However, for Shouyang's words, she still couldn't believe it immediately. As long as she thought of Qin Shou's cold, indifferent face, he went into the dining room and rolled up his sleeves to make snacks. She was startled and couldn't bear to think about it.

Concubine Luo lay down again, she thought for a while, and then asked, "So, if the chestnut cake was really made for me by my son-in-law, does that mean that my son-in-law actually has me in his heart?"

Shouyang covered his lips and smiled, "A gentleman doesn't enter the kitchen, let alone a son-in-law who is proud in his bones."

Hearing this, Concubine Luo felt terrified, she snorted a few times delicately, rolled around in the small carriage with a big soft pillow in her arms, but in her heart she was thinking——

If you used to hate me, I want you to taste it too!

Hmph, I still owe her revenge!

Thinking of all these things, she sat up quickly, and said with a straight face, "I want to eat chestnut cake again, let my son-in-law make it again."

Then she ate a piece and threw one in his face!
Shouyang stroked his forehead with his hand, "Princess, the son-in-law didn't admit it at first, so I'm afraid I won't do it again."

In fact, seeing Concubine Luo's proud appearance, she immediately understood why the son-in-law didn't admit it before, the princess is really a villain.

Concubine Luo snorted coldly, and muttered, "I have my own way to make him do it again."

Therefore, after driving for half a day to the south of Sichuan, the group found a shady official road for a rest. Concubine Luo got out of the carriage. He went straight to Qin Shou's side.

Qin Shou was leaning on the horse and sipping water, when he saw Concubine Luo approaching with bright eyes, he closed his eyes and ignored her.

As usual, Concubine Luo would definitely taunt him a few words, then turn around and leave, but this time, she could still lean over with a smile, looked at the cowhide water bag in his hand, sniffed it and asked, "Did the son-in-law drink it?" What is it?"

Qin Shou looked down at her small and wrinkled nose, like a curious milk cat, who would stretch out its paws when it was appropriate.

He said lightly, "It's just water."

As soon as he said this, Concubine Luo snatched his water bag, threw it away, and said, "What kind of water do you want to drink? I invite my son-in-law to drink flower and fruit tea."

Shouyang on the side didn't have time to stop it, the cowhide water bag fell to the ground with a thud, and the water in it spilled all over the floor, leaving nothing left.

Qin Shou's eyes turned cold in an instant. He flicked his sleeves and said, "Princess Kyushu leader is kind enough. It's better for the princess to drink flower and fruit tea by herself."

After speaking, he bent down to pick up the shriveled cowhide water bag, got on the horse, and drove the horse away.

Concubine Luo raised her sleeves and also snorted coldly.

At this time, Guard Gu stepped forward and bowed his head to the princess and said, "Princess, people with low ranks drink differently from the princess."

Concubine Luo looked at him sideways, "Isn't it water, what's the difference?"

Gu Shiwei considered his words carefully, "The son-in-law is a marcher, but whenever he is on the road, he is used to drinking salt and sugar water, that is, some salt and sugar are put in the clear water, which tastes bad, but it can replenish physical strength. Those who can save lives, not to mention concubines, are also those who drink in humble positions."

Concubine Luo opened her lips, and finally had no choice but to say, "I invite him to drink flower and fruit tea, that's why I like him!"

After saying that, she turned around and got into the carriage, but the movement of raising the curtain was quite big, which made people see that she was upset.

Shouyang nodded at Guard Gu, "Take an opportunity to talk to the son-in-law, the princess didn't know why she did that, it wasn't intentional."

All the people around Concubine Luo have always hoped that the princess will live well, and the current situation is that the empress dowager and the emperor in the capital all recognize the concubine, so they, the people around the princess, naturally hope that the princess and the concubine will be happy. Can clear up the previous suspicions, the piano and the cymbals are in harmony.

Guard Gu nodded, "I know, aunt, go and serve the princess."

This trip to the south of Shu, the car is light and simple, so Concubine Luo only brought three maids, Shouyang, Mingyu, and Jixia, and the guards, except for the head of the guard, could be accompanied by only ten people, even the carriage. To change the ordinary no emblem logo.

Qin Shou was even simpler, alone, coming and going freely.

Therefore, Shouyang was more worried, after all the capital city was far away from Shunan, and Concubine Luo was spoiled and spoiled, so it would be better not to get sick.

When she got back to the carriage, she saw Concubine Luo grabbing the handle of the teacup with her fingers, and seeing her coming up, she gave her an indifferent look without saying a word.

Shouyang poured a cup of flower and fruit tea, and pushed it in front of Concubine Luo, "Princess, don't worry, the son-in-law is a gentleman, and he won't argue with the princess."

"I didn't worry about it." Concubine Luo gave her a sidelong glance.

Shouyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Yes, the servant girl made a mistake."

After a while, Concubine Luo said awkwardly, "Did Auntie bring salt?"

Shouyang wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, for fear of offending Concubine Luo, but she still said, "Naturally, I'll bring it along. I can't always meet post houses and towns along the way, so the servant girl even brought more seasonings."

Concubine Luo coughed lightly, raised her chin and said, "Send a cowhide water bag to my son-in-law, be sure to fill it with salt and sugar water, and say that this palace rewarded him, and let him do his best to protect the safety of this palace. Thanks."

It's clear that he couldn't bear it and wanted to make up for the son-in-law, but he wanted to say it in such an angry tone. Fortunately, it was Shouyang who heard the words. If it was someone else, it would be good not to hold grudges.

Shouyang then went to handle the matter in person, but when she brought a brand new cowhide water bag to the son-in-law, she said, "The princess said, this is to compensate the son-in-law. The son-in-law has worked hard all the way, and I hope the son-in-law will not care about what happened just now." thing."

Qin Shou was holding the water bag, his smoke-colored phoenix eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up into an almost undetectable arc, and he said softly, "Would the princess say that?"

Shouyang choked, straightened his expression, and continued, "Yes, that's what the princess said."

Qin Shou hung the water bag on his waist nimbly, "Then you go back to the princess, if you want me to be ignorant, let the princess come over to serve me tonight!"
