concubines

Chapter 38
The last time she went to visit the injured eldest princess at the eldest princess's mansion, a young man walked out of the eldest princess's mansion, who is today's King Qi.

When King Qi left from the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess dropped a teacup.The relationship between the two seems to be not as good as it is today. Zhou Shuxuan also said that the eldest princess doesn't particularly like King Qi.

But judging from today's situation, it doesn't seem right.

Although the relationship between the eldest princess and King Qi is not particularly warm, it is definitely not bad.

Miao Li felt strange, and tentatively asked Zhou Shuxuan: "My lord, it seems that the eldest princess is not as good as the king."

With a faint smile on Zhou Shuxuan's face, he put down the book in his hand and said, "The eldest princess doesn't like that King Qi is by her side every day, and loves to keep nagging in her ear."

Miao Li was confused when she heard these words, and asked again: "I don't think the eldest princess is a nagging person."

Zhou Shuxuan laughed again: "When did this king say that the eldest princess loves nagging? I mean that King Qi loves nagging."

"What?" Miao Li was surprised, with complete disbelief in her tone.

Just now, Wang Qi was full of masculinity, almost stern, not much better than Zhou Shuxuan.He is also a leader in war, how can he like to chatter like a woman?
Zhou Shuxuan asked back: "Is it incredible?"

Miao Li nodded and said, "It's not unbelievable, but I just can't figure out why King Qi is like this?"

Zhou Shuxuan looked outside the house, his eyes became very far away, as if he was recalling a past event, and it took him a long time to say: "Probably because the eldest princess saved his life. In the 12th year of Shengping, the Xiqi Kingdom violated the border, and the two countries were separated in Meiliang. At that time, the eldest princess was the general leading the army, and the king of Qi was just a small lieutenant.

King Qi had just entered the barracks, and he was young and vigorous.Xiqi called for battle, but the king of Qi refused to listen to the eldest princess' persuasion, and chose to be the first official.Who would have thought that his skills were inferior to others, and the opposing general would be stabbed under the horse, and life and death would only be a matter of an instant.The eldest princess broke into the formation single-handedly, desperately rescued King Qi, but she was shot twice.After being raised in the army for a long time, he recovered his life from the gate of hell.

From then on, wherever you can see the eldest princess, you can see King Qi.The eldest princess also asked the emperor for an imperial edict not to allow King Qi to approach her. "

"Did the emperor issue this imperial decree?"

Zhou Shuxuan shook his head and said, "How could the emperor issue such absurd decree? They are relatives. There were few generals available at that time, and the emperor was still waiting for the eldest princess to teach the king of Qi to lead the army to fight. How can we do without contact?"

Speaking of this, Zhou Shuxuan felt a little uneasy.Why did the eldest princess choose to help him instead of King Qi?King Qi has been by her side for so many years, and while talking about being bored, he must have feelings in his heart.Why not kiss him more?But in the clan mansion, the eldest princess clearly said that she would help him.

Miao Li called him again, "My lord?"

Zhou Shuxuan suddenly came back to his senses, "What's wrong?"

"Master Wei came to ask, is the meal ready?"

Zhou Shuxuan looked at the sun, it was indeed getting late, and the day passed like this.Since he broke his leg, he didn't do anything every day, and the day passed quickly.He could clearly feel the passage of time bit by bit, but he couldn't do anything.

hateful!

He just couldn't get out of the small mansion, and he still wanted to stir up a little bit in the Jiangshan.

Zhou Shuxuan propped his head, waved his hands and said, "Set the meal."

Zhou Shuxuan's appetite has not been very good recently, and the kitchen is changing ways to cook for him, but he still can't arouse any interest, and only eats a little meal every meal, and he is getting thinner and thinner day by day.In the past few days, I stayed in the clan's mansion, and I seem to have lost a lot of weight when I came back.

How can you do great things without a good body?Seeing this, Miao Li felt anxious, and helped him serve vegetables with chopsticks, all of which were chosen to nourish his body.

Zhou Shuxuan's bowl has been piled up like a hill, and Miao Li is still picking up vegetables for him.Zhou Shuxuan said coldly: "Enough, are you feeding pigs?"

Miao Li glanced at his bowl, put down her chopsticks and stepped back, still muttering in her heart, if feeding him was really as easy as feeding pigs, at least pigs would eat whatever they were given.

After complaining in my heart, suddenly a servant came in from behind and said, "Girl, someone is looking for you outside."

Looking for her?Miao Li was puzzled, her popularity in the mansion was similar to that of Zhou Shuxuan in the court, and she had no friends.After she moved into Zhou Shuxuan's yard, it was like a complete break with the past.

Miao Li went out suspiciously, and saw a somewhat familiar person as soon as she went out.After taking a closer look, she remembered that this was from the House of Concubines, and her name seemed to be Mo Lan.

As soon as Mo Lan saw her, as if she couldn't wait, she immediately went up to meet her, grabbed her hand and said, "Sister, you have come out. Now your status is different. You are a celebrity in front of the prince. You want to see her." You still need to report."

Miao Li was a little unaccustomed to her enthusiasm, she didn't have much friendship with this Mo Lan, she took out her hand, stood a little to the side, and then said, "What do you want from me?"

Mo Lan looked around carefully, and after making sure that no one was eavesdropping, she said mysteriously, "My sister hasn't returned to the concubine's courtyard for so long, and even if he came to look for you, he couldn't find anyone."

Miao Li was at a loss, why couldn't she understand what she was talking about?
"he?"

Mo Lan motioned her to keep her voice down, looked around again, and said in a low voice, "Did my sister forget the past when she climbed a high branch? Have you forgotten the son of my uncle's family? The one who comes to see you often."

Miao Li didn't know a single word of the things she said!The reason for her visit was somewhat clear. Although she didn't know what it was, it was definitely not a good thing.

Miao Li completely distanced herself from her, raised her voice and said, "I don't know what young master you are talking about, if you have nothing else to do, please go back."

When she made a loud noise, Mo Lan stopped suppressing her voice, and deliberately raised her voice, which was a little louder than hers, and said, "Sister, don't pretend you don't know! This is what the Second Young Master asked me to hand over to you." , He also said that if it is convenient, I will ask you to meet at the old place tomorrow."

As she spoke, Mo Lan took out a fan pendant from her sleeve and stuffed it into her hand.

How could Miaoli want these obscure things, she decided not to.The two came back and forth, Miao Li seemed to push harder, and Mo Lan followed her strength and fell to the ground.He yelled: "What are you pushing me to do for these shameful things you did yourself?"

This sound successfully caught Zhou Shuxuan's attention. He has a good appetite today, and he has already finished eating the dishes that Miaoli put in for him, and what Wei Hai put in for him is something he doesn't like very much.I was wondering why people haven't come back yet?Mo Lan's voice was heard.

Who was so blind to disturb him from eating, and asked with an unhappy expression, "Who is making noise outside?"

"Slave go out and have a look."

Wei Hai ran out in a hurry, saw Miaoli and Molan, ignored Mulan, and said directly to Miaoli, "Girl, my lord let you in."

Miao Li gave Mo Lan a disgusted look, and walked into the room with her skirt lifted.

After entering the room, stand directly behind Zhou Shuxuan, while Mo Lan has to salute and kowtow in a proper manner.

"Servant Mo Lan greets the prince."

Zhou Shuxuan leaned on the back of the chair and asked condescendingly, "Tell me, which temple's god are you?"

Mo Lan tightly held her handkerchief. She has been in the mansion for five years, and the prince still doesn't know her.But he didn't dare to show it on his face, so he said in a soft voice: "Your maidservant is not a god, but your maidservant belongs to the court of concubines."

Zhou Shuxuan sneered endlessly, "You are not a god, how could you have the guts to quarrel with me for dinner?"

Mo Lan couldn't say it well, and wanted to change the point, she lowered her head and said, "This servant is here to find Miss Miaoli, and accidentally disturbed the prince for dinner, this servant deserves death."

Just now, I was talking about my younger sister outside, and in front of Zhou Shuxuan, I called the girl again.

Zhou Shuxuan grasped the key point and asked, "Why are you looking for her?"

Mo Lan pretended to hesitate for a while and said, "Someone asked the servant to deliver something to the girl, but the girl is embarrassed to ask for it, so we just started arguing."

Zhou Shuxuan glanced at Miaoli, and asked again: "What is it?"

Mo Lan respectfully handed over the item. This is no ordinary fan pendant, it is carved out of high-quality suet white jade.The person who gave the things must have an unusual identity.

Zhou Shuxuan raised the things in his hand to Miao Li's eyes, and asked in a cold voice, "Why don't you want it?"

Miao Li asked back with a bit of backbone: "Why do slaves want things of unknown origin?"

Zhou Shuxuan turned to Mo Lan again, "She said the origin is unknown, so you tell her the origin?"

Miao Li felt that Zhou Shuxuan was crazy today, and he actually had time to take care of these things.According to his temper, shouldn't someone just throw Mo Lan out?

"This..." Mo Lan put on a face and said, "In front of the prince, the girl's reputation may be ruined, and the slaves dare not say it."

Zhou Shuxuan seemed to be a little interested, playing with the fan pendant in his hand and asked: "What are you afraid to say in front of this king? But it doesn't matter."

Mo Lan gave Miao Li a hypocritical look, and pretended to think about it before she spoke, "This is from the second son of my uncle's family to the girl, and the servant sent a message to ask the girl to meet at the old place tomorrow."

This uncle's family refers to the natal family of the concubine Liang, which is Zhou Shuxuan's grandfather's family, but he has little contact with Zhou Shuxuan.

Zhou Shuxuan looked at the fan pendant in his hand, with no expression of joy or anger on his face, and said in a cold voice: "It seems that what you want to say is more than these, please make it clear."

Mo Lan seemed to see some hope, and said in a suggestive tone: "Miss Miaoli had a very good relationship with the second son before, I wonder if it is..."

Zhou Shuxuan kindly helped her complete it, "Is it cheating?"

When Miao Li heard this, she quickly knelt on the ground and cried out for herself, "I don't know who the second son is, please be careful."

Zhou Shuxuan didn't even look at her, he raised his hand and slammed the fan pendant on Mo Lan's face, "Fuck your mother! I'm afraid you can't bear the loneliness yourself! To be honest, you and the Li family's How long have you been hooking up?"
