concubines

Chapter 67 Nameless Fire

She went as soon as she asked, and Zhou Shuxuan didn't know who he was angry with, and after staying in the study for a short time, he asked Wei Hai to push him away, deliberately not letting Miao Li follow.

Seeing Miaoli's slightly disappointed expression, Zhou Shuxuan was a little proud, how could he know that Miaoli wanted to follow to see what Xu Shi wanted to do?
It doesn't have much impact if you don't go, Miao Li doesn't care, she doesn't notice that Zhou Shuxuan's temper is a little bit wrong today.

Now the layout of the palace is half smaller, and it takes only a few steps to reach Xu's courtyard.

It was already spring, and when Zhou Shuxuan came, Xu felt the severe cold like winter.

Mrs. Xu's attire is very plain today, and she uses her morbidity just right, other men will definitely feel pity when they see it.

It's a pity that Zhou Shuxuan is not an ordinary man, he is used to seeing stunning beauties, and today he is still angry with stunning beauties, now he just feels bored seeing other women.

Without even looking at Mrs. Xu, Zhou Shuxuan said directly, "Didn't you mean to eat? What about the food?"

Mrs. Xu glanced outside, the sun was still high.

Mrs. Xu raised her hand to make a cup of tea for Zhou Shuxuan, "My lord, it's not time for dinner yet, my lord might as well sit down for a while."

Zhou Shuxuan pushed the teacup away, and said with a straight face, "I'm not here to drink tea."

Zhou Shuxuan has always had a bad temper, but he has always respected Xu, the daughter of his predecessor, and today is the first time he has spoken harshly to Xu.Xu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly felt aggrieved, it took a long time to endure the grievance, and explained with a smile.

"I didn't expect the prince to come so early, so I'm not ready yet."

She even thought that Zhou Shuxuan would not come over, even if he did, it would be because of the meal.I am afraid that the dishes will be cold, and the stove has not been turned on yet.

Zhou Shuxuan became more angry, and asked: "You never thought that the king would come so early, why did you ask someone to send a message to the king so early?"

Zhou Shuxuan is now full of evil spirits and has no place to vent his anger. Miao Li's lukewarm attitude towards him just now made him angry.He wasn't targeting Mrs. Xu either, as long as there is one in front of him now, no matter who he is, he will be scolded.

Mrs. Xu had never experienced such a great anger from him, and was taken aback for a while.Fearing that he would get angry, I had no choice but to say: "I will go to the small kitchen to see how the preparations are going."

After going out, Xu secretly wiped away tears.Tweety heard the conversation between the two just now, she came over and said, "My lord is so hungry, he hasn't eaten for hundreds of years."

Zhou Shuxuan doesn't want to eat now, he wants to eat people!
Xu reprimanded with a stern face: "My lord can let you talk, go and see if they are ready?"

Tweety left, and Xu stood outside and secretly wiped away tears for a while before walking in holding the handkerchief. The doctor said that today is the best day for her to conceive, and Zhou Shuxuan will not treat her like this when she has a child .

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xu's face again.

In the room, Zhou Shuxuan was still angry with himself and himself, not knowing what that damned woman was doing, and he never said to come and see him after so long.

Miao Li is also having a headache now, she wants to take advantage of Zhou Shuxuan's absence, and wants to collect the study, and when she is doing well, Li Youfu comes.

At first, it was like a chatterbox that couldn't be closed, asking questions all the time.

Seeing her packing up the books now, I asked, "Sister, what are you holding?"

"It's a geography."

Li Youfu raised her head and asked, "Does your lord like to read geography?"

Miao Li glanced at the book in her hand, she didn't like it before, but now she likes it, she nodded.

"Why does the prince like to read geography? Is it because it's fun?"

When she asked this question, Miao Li suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Zhou Shuxuan always had a lonely look on his face when he read geographical records.He does not read geography for fun, but because he wants to see places he has never been to, places he may never go.

Miao Li endured the sadness in her heart and nodded again.

Li Youfu seemed to see her sadness, and jumped in front of her and said, "Sister, you don't seem very happy."

Miao Li smiled and said: "There is no maidservant, the side concubine is overwhelmed."

Li Youfu went over and tugged at her sleeves and said, "Don't lie to me, Mammy said I have good eyesight, you were clearly unhappy just now."

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Miao Li probably couldn't pass this test, so she said: "I just thought of something."

"What are you thinking? Tell me if you are unhappy, and I can enlighten my sister."

This little girl who pretended to be deep on purpose, Miao Li smiled, helped her to sit down, and said patiently: "Everyone will have unhappy things, not everything can be shared with others."

Li Youfu treated her really well, but I don't know if these good things can stand the test.To put it bluntly, the friendship between her and Li Youfu has not reached the point where they have nothing to say.

Li Youfu raised her face and said, "Nonsense, I can share everything in my heart with my sister."

Miao Li smiled again, and led Li Youfu to divert the topic, "What does the side concubine want to share with the servant?"

Li Youfu didn't notice that her words were taken astray at all, and a red cloud appeared on her face, with a little bit of embarrassment.Coyly, it took a long time before he said: "Sister, next month is the prince's birthday."

Miao Li saw that her face was redder than the clothes on her body, and she instantly understood everything in her heart.The girl in front of me is no longer a childish little girl, she looks like a big girl.

Miao Li suppressed the smile in her heart and deliberately teased her, "How about the prince's birthday next month? Does the side concubine want to help the prince have a good birthday?"

Li Youfu is now handling the affairs of the palace, so she should worry about it.But she should also discuss it with Wei Hai frankly, and shouldn't be so coy.

"No," Li Youfu blushed, showing the posture of a little girl, pinching the corner of her clothes, and took a long time to say, "I don't know what gift I should give my lord."

Today, I came here to inquire about the situation. No wonder she would have nothing to ask as long as it was about Zhou Shuxuan.

Miao Li smiled and said: "As long as it is given by the side concubine, the prince will like it."

"Mammy said the same thing, but I'm not good at anything other than cooking. Tell me, I'll cook a table of delicious meals for the prince, okay?"

After speaking, Li Youfu held her face and looked at her expectantly.

Zhou Shuxuan didn't like to go to the back house before, let alone eat in any courtyard.But today he agreed to Xu Shi, maybe he changed his mind, and it is unknown if he answered Li Youfu in the future, Zhou Shuxuan treated Li Youfu better than Xu Shi.

"The prince will definitely like it. The side concubine just needs to prepare with her heart."

Li Youfu was still worried after hearing her words, and said to herself: "Nurse said that I am already a big girl, I can no longer be like a child, I have to learn to please my husband."

I see.At this time, Miaoli felt that Li Youfu was not bad as a princess, and her family background was completely fine.Just a little younger, but not always young.

Thinking of Zhou Shuxuan's weird temper and Li Youfu's innocence and liveliness, Miao Li couldn't help but want to laugh, this combination is a bit weird.

If Zhou Shuxuan found out, Miao Li pushed him to a woman's yard first, and now she was thinking of bringing him together with another woman, even if she wasn't mad, she would not be far from mad.

"Sister, I don't know what the prince likes, can my sister help me?" Li Youfu stood up and looked at her expectantly.

Miao Li is now Zhou Shuxuan's close friend, so she naturally knows his preferences.Miao Li might not intervene in other matters, but these are related to Zhou Shuxuan's heirs, Miao Li feels that she can still take care of them.Besides, facing this pair of big eyes full of expectation, she couldn't say no to it.

"Natural servants will help me with all my might. If the side concubine wants to know anything, she can ask the servants."

In Xu's courtyard.

Under the rush of the small kitchen, the dishes were finally put on the table within an hour.

The dishes on the table are extremely delicate, and it looks like a lot of effort has been spent on them.Not only has a lot of effort been put into it on the surface, but it has also been put into it on the inside. It is guaranteed that Zhou Shuxuan will not be able to leave tonight.

After the dishes were placed on the table, Mrs. Xu raised her eyes to look at Zhou Shuxuan, and found that his complexion was worse than before.

Zhou Shuxuan looked at the food on the table, thinking about Miao Li, who was about to have dinner, and didn't know what he was doing, and he didn't give him any medicine.

Doesn't he check if it's meal time?Miao Li never imagined that he was going to eat now.

Zhou Shuxuan picked up the chopsticks and looked at them for a long time, then threw them away and said, "I'm not hungry yet."

Xu held back her tears and looked at him, she was powerless to deal with his attitude.

Xu endured the embarrassment in her heart and said: "Then...the concubine let them withdraw first."

Zhou Shuxuan was noncommittal, and for the next time, Zhou Shuxuan didn't say a word, and Xu Shi sat aside and didn't dare to speak.When it was dark, Miao Li came in with a bowl.

As soon as Miao Li entered the room, she felt that the atmosphere in the room was extremely dignified.It was completely different from what she had imagined. She didn't expect Zhou Shuxuan to be able to chat and laugh with Xu Shi, and it shouldn't be like this.

Zhou Shuxuan's complexion was a little darker than the medicine in the bowl, he reached out to take the medicine in her hand, and drank it like someone angry.Then he threw the bowl to Miao Li and stared at her without saying a word.

Miao Li really has something to talk to him now, so she took this opportunity and said: "My lord, Concubine Li wants my maidservants to come and play with her tonight."

I just wanted to say this for a long time, Zhou Shuxuan said with a murderous look: "You can decide for yourself."

This is inaccurate, I don't know who he is angry with today, Miao Li said very calmly: "I know, I will leave."

As soon as her figure disappeared, Zhou Shuxuan patted the table and said, "Chuan Shan."

Concubine Xu waited until he said this, so she hurriedly sent someone to pass on the meal. She didn't know if the medicine would still be effective after waiting for so long.
