concubines

Chapter 27
Miao Li just wanted to go out but felt that it was not right, Concubine Li was still a half-grown child, if she came to manage the palace, she would probably cause more trouble than she would do.

"My lord, should you think about it again?" She came out of the inner house. In order to clean herself up, she didn't want to meddle in the affairs of the inner house, so she didn't try to persuade her, but just asked again.

"You just go and invite, this king can make his own judgment."

He insisted again and again, and Miao Li couldn't say much.

Not long after, Li Youfu came, wearing a pink robe, making her look younger.Zhou Shuxuan couldn't help but ask, "How old are you this year?"

Li Youfu raised her head and thought for a while and said: "After the new year, I will be sixteen. Is there anything the prince can do for me?"

She was still boiling milk in the yard, when the pretty sister came over suddenly and said that the prince was looking for her, and she was only so reluctant when she came.

Zhou Shuxuan said with a slight smile: "I heard from your mother last time that you think playing in the yard is too boring. I found something for you to do today."

Li Youfu's eyes were shining, she was in the yard every day, and the nanny didn't allow anything, she was almost bored to death.Grabbing Zhou Shuxuan's hand, he asked, "Really? What's the matter?"

"I'll let you play a little game. It's almost Chinese New Year, can you help choose gifts for others?"

The way Miao Li lied to the child, he felt that he was a different person, who regarded giving gifts during the New Year's Day as a trivial matter.

"Okay, okay." Li Youfu didn't know the meaning of giving the gift, and only had a vague idea that it was fun.

Zhou Shuxuan smirked and said, "There are other things after finishing, I will leave the palace to you later."

"As long as it's not as boring as before, you can do anything." Li Youfu patted her chest and said, "I'll keep everything on me."

Zhou Shuxuan nodded, if only everyone spoke so happily. "Then I'll get someone to send you the list of people who want to give gifts later." Then pointing to Miaoli, he said, "Ask your sister Meng if you don't understand anything."

It turned out that she was put in, and Miao Li could see clearly what he was planning at this time, why not just let her come, "My lord..."

Zhou Shu Xuanyang interrupted her words, "I won't listen, I won't change, I won't think about it." His face was full of determination.

Miao Li couldn't say anything because of the words, so Li Youfu didn't care what they were talking about, only thinking about her milk, "Is there anything else for the lord, I'm going back."

Zhou Shuxuan was not angry because of her attitude, he waved his hand and said, "Go back, don't forget the business."

Li Youfu went out bouncing around, and Zhou Shuxuan said quite proudly: "Success, the big problem has been resolved." Those women will definitely not bother him anymore, pointing to Wei Hai and saying: "If you have anything to do, you can find them two in the future." , don’t bother me any more.”

Wei Hai didn't understand who Sister Meng was just now, but now he realized that it was Miao Li.With a slap in the heart, he knew that the future of this Miaoli girl was limitless. In a few days, the prince gave her all the time in the back house.

Miao Li had no choice but to refuse, he just blocked the road, and kept silent.

After a quarter of an hour, Zhou Shuxuan felt that the room was a bit cold, and when he looked up, he saw her ice-like face.What he did in this matter was indeed not very kind, and he made a decision without discussing it with her, but who made him the prince?
"Do you have an opinion?" Zhou Shuxuan asked knowingly while holding a teacup.

Miao Li was helping him grind the ink, she shook her head and said, "I don't dare."

She didn't dare, Zhou Shuxuan laughed, in this world, she probably didn't dare to do anything other than assassinate the king.

Zhou Shuxuan is in a good mood today, and he still has time to explain to her, "It's almost Chinese New Year now, and the crown prince has done a lot of things again. I don't know what the emperor means, and we can't report on some things. We'll talk about everything after the new year, and you're teaching her just during this time."

He trusted her so much, and entrusted her with such an important task of teaching the steward of the palace, Miao Li lowered her head and asked: "Isn't the prince afraid that the servants can't do it well?"

Zhou Shuxuan blurted out, "Don't be afraid, I trust you."

This belief put a heavy burden on Miao Li, and Zhou Shuxuan sent the list over there.Li Youfu couldn't drink enough milk, why are there so many people?She thought there were only a few people, but she never thought that the person who wrote a whole page would be jumping around in the room in a hurry.

During the New Year's Eve, there are too many gifts to be given, so it is a big event.

Miao Li was ordered to send her the property registered in the warehouse, and let her choose to send it out.As soon as I entered the room, I saw her circling around the room like an ant on a hot pan.

"What happened to the lady?"

As soon as Li Youfu saw her coming in, she jumped on her, hugged her and did not let go, "Beautiful sister, tell the prince that I don't want to give gifts to others. I am so busy every day, what to eat for morning and lunch, I still have to think about what to eat for dinner, I’m too busy. I don’t want to give gifts anymore, I don’t know what they all like.”

It turned out that it was because of this that Miao Li took her off her body and said with a smile: "Didn't the prince ask the empress to find someone to help?"

It seems that Li Youfu thought for a moment that she didn't pay attention and didn't know who Sister Meng was at that time, and said with a sad face: "But... I don't know who Sister Meng is?"

There is no one surnamed Meng among the people that Mammy always whispers in her ear. The only woman who can call her sister is Zhou Shuxuan. Could it be that he married recently?
Then she doesn't want it, she doesn't like to play with strangers.

Miao Li bowed, and replied with a smile, "The prince is talking about a slave girl, and the slave girl's real name is Meng."

With a look of surprise on her face, Li Youfu hugged her again, and said happily, "That's great, I can play with my pretty sister now."

Miao Li couldn't resist her enthusiasm, so she pushed her away without a trace, and said with a smile: "The servant girl is not playing with the side concubine, the servant girl is here to supervise the work, if the empress can't finish her work, she is not allowed to sleep."

Li Youfu froze for a moment, then silently brought over the milk she had just boiled, handed it to her, and said expectantly, "Quick, sister, drink it." His eyes were full of expectation.

Miao Li was puzzled by her strange movements, but Li Youfu was still a master no matter how young she was, and she was always a slave.Miao Li took the bowl, raised her head and drank it all in one gulp.She didn't like the taste before, and making her drink this bowl was even more uncomfortable than taking medicine.

Li Youfu took the bowl contentedly, and took out a handkerchief to help her wipe her mouth. Miao Li, who has always been a servant, was a little flattered and couldn't help it, and asked, "Madam, what's going on?" gone?"

Li Youfu raised her head, looking like she had succeeded, "This is called cannibalism. You can't criticize me anymore after eating my milk. I can sleep when I want." Don't be too proud, you're done look like.

Miao Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry, she pulled her to sit down at the table, took out the inventory list she brought and put it on the table, said with a straight face: "Your servant will not know what milk is after drinking it, your mother should work quickly, otherwise Then don't blame me for turning my face and denying people." For some reason, she seemed to be a little more childish in front of Li Youfu, and liked to tease her.

Li Youfu hugged her waist and did not let go, "You can't do this, you are cheating."

At this time, a nanny came in outside and asked: "What's the matter?" When she was asking, she kept looking at Miao Li, seeing that she didn't look like the master of the house, so she was not very polite.Ask directly: "Who is this girl?"

"Miaoli has met the nanny, I came from the prince's courtyard to assist the side concubine to deal with the affairs of the house."

Now no one knows that there is a new favorite in Zhou Shuxuanyuan. It turns out that she is just a concubine, master or slave, and the prince dares to ask her to help deal with the affairs of the mansion. She is probably a powerful person. .Mammy returned a salute, "That's troublesome girl, if you need anything, just talk to this old servant."

Miao Li glanced at Li Youfu, still looking worried, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, we are about to start here, please let me get the list."

Li Youfu looked at her helplessly for a while, her big eyes were full of pity, and after a while she was unmoved, she stood up and said: "Pretty sister is not fun at all, I will go and tell the prince that I don't want to do it." .”

Miao Li hurriedly pulled her back, the prince really has no one to use now, otherwise he would not have looked for her, so he softened his tone to comfort her, "The servant was talking to the empress just now, after confirming the gift list, the servant will play with you, okay? ?”

Only now did Li Youfu have a little smile on her face, she compromised and said, "Okay then, you can't go back on your word."

"Okay, okay." Miao Li promised again and again, this is like coaxing a child, I really don't know how she and Zhou Shuxuan get along, whether it will make Zhou Shuxuan on the verge of losing his temper all the time.

Soon, the list will be delivered.The emperor and the ladies in the palace are easy to deal with, and Zhou Shuxuan and his brothers have nothing to worry about. It is the crown prince who is in trouble.

Li Youfu raised her head and asked Miaoli, "Sister, should I give the prince a little more gift? He is the future emperor."

Miao Li mentioned that the prince hated her so much that her teeth itch. According to her heart, it would be best to send the prince to see the King of Hades.But that is sooner or later, although not now.Miao Li shook her head and said, "No, according to the previous..."

As she said that, Miao Li glanced at the previous gift list, and was taken aback for a moment, this Xia family is really...she couldn't think of words to comment on, what Xia family gave to the crown prince actually had the meaning of surpassing the emperor.Miao Li changed her words and said: "Just follow what you gave to King Qi, don't go too far."

Li Youfu didn't understand very much, and asked: "Why? Shouldn't the crown prince be more noble than the king of Qi?"

Noble is noble, but there is no emotion, and the prince will not be noble for long, she will kill the prince no matter what.It is inconvenient to discuss this with Li Youfu in detail, but he just said: "The crown prince is always the brother of the prince, and those who leave on the New Year's Day are relatives, so there is no need to think too much about other things."

Li Youfu took the New Year's gift list and asked again: "Then why did you give so many things before. Look, big pearls, and these."

Miao Li was even more embarrassed, Xia's gift was filled with other friendships.However, it cannot be said that privately spreading royal secrets is in danger of life at any time.

Miaoli was thinking how to explain something to her, when suddenly she heard someone talking outside, it sounded like Wei Hai's voice, he was not serving Zhou Shuxuan, what did he come here for?Even if there is something to arrange, just ask the servant to come over, but when I was still wondering, I heard her calling from outside.

"Miss Miaoli." Wei Hai yelled outside, but did not enter the house.

Miao Li was puzzled, stood up and bowed to Li Youfu, "It seems to be Mr. Wei who is next to the prince, servant girl."

As soon as Miaoli went out, she saw Wei Hai circling around in place. She was sweating profusely on a winter day. When she saw her coming out, she hurried up to meet her and said, "Miss, something is wrong."
