Chapter 448 Ruthless
"My dear concubine, the prince will be leaving school soon."

The palace maid came in lightly, and whispered to Concubine Xu Gui who was on the other side of the gauze curtain.

Concubine Xu Gui threw down the invitation card in her hand, closed her eyes and pressed her forehead, and said: "Got it, you can go down."

The calming incense in the outer hall was burning, but Concubine Xu Gui couldn't feel at ease.

She opened her eyes and tidied up the invitations piled up on the table. She chose a suit of clothes for herself. Even the accessories were not fake, but she moved very quickly without any hesitation. It seemed that she had already thought about what to wear and what to bring. Thousands of times.

After a while, Xu Guifei tidied herself up, opened the door and said to the palace lady who was already waiting at the door: "Chen Xiang, let me go."

The two headed towards the upper study room, and when they arrived, Chen Xiang stayed outside the door and guarded, while Concubine Xu went straight to the school door and waited.

Before it was time to finish school, Xie Qian arranged today's homework, and the foreign students discussed freely, then packed up their things and left the school. Unexpectedly, as soon as they went out, they saw unexpected people.

"Concubine Xu." Xie Qian took a step back and bowed in salute.

Obviously Xie Qian has always been so alienated and indifferent towards him, but Concubine Xu Gui is not used to it, every time she hears him call her concubine, her heart aches.

Concubine Xu Gui twitched the corners of her mouth with difficulty, and stepped forward to help Xie Qian, "Teacher Xie doesn't need to be polite, I just come to pick up the crown prince when I have nothing to do."

Xie Qian took another step back, avoiding Concubine Xu's hand, straightened his body, and said in a business-like manner: "I can see the love and love of the concubine for the prince, but the concubine is not allowed to enter the study room unless she has the emperor's permission. It's a rule. Concubine Xu Gui, please keep it in mind in the future."

Concubine Xu Gui laughed self-deprecatingly, and said with a sigh: "I know."

Xie Qian nodded to Concubine Xu Gui, saluted and left.

The people behind Tuliu looked at his back obsessively, and shed a tear that no one knew about.

"Mother Concubine! Why are you here?"

The crown prince dragged Xie Shen out, originally wanting to ask him about Lin Si, but he saw Concubine Xu Gui at a glance, and ran to her in surprise.

"Mother Concubine misses you." Concubine Xu Gui quietly pressed her eyes, and when she put down her hands, she had already recovered her dignified manner, "Recently the crown prince always lives in the East Palace and doesn't go to Yunzhao Palace very much, is it mother? Is the concubine making you angry?"

"Of course not." The prince grabbed the corner of his clothes in embarrassment.

I used to be a child, so it was fine to live with the imperial concubine, but now the child is an adult man, and living with the concubine in the palace makes him feel uncomfortable, so whenever he has the opportunity, he runs to Donggong to live.

"Then why did Your Highness move out of Yunzhao Palace suddenly, did Zhao'er provoke you?" Xu Guifei asked tentatively.

The prince was worried and couldn't think of any reason, when he heard Concubine Xu mentioning that little girl, he immediately put on a look of embarrassment, and then nodded slightly after a long time.

This little girl is really annoying, and the crown prince hating her is not entirely an excuse to deal with Concubine Xu.

The royal heirs are thin, especially when it comes to the emperor, there is not a single male in the huge harem, and the prince is still adopted from the same clan.

There is only one princess, who was born to Concubine Xu Gui.

Therefore, this little princess has been favored by all the stars since she was born, and finally she spoiled her into a demon king.

Only in front of the emperor would she be a little restrained. As for the prince, she simply didn't pay attention to it at all.

Looking at Xie Shen beside him, the prince became even angrier.

He has a gentle and beautiful elder sister, and an elder brother who is both talented and virtuous, and he has a lawless younger sister, whom he neither hates nor likes.

People in the royal family expect such things as family affection.

"Your Highness, I have taught Zhao'er well, and this time I promise that she will not make the Crown Prince angry."

Concubine Xu Gui gently took the prince's hand and assured him, "Furthermore, Concubine Mother made sorbet cake today, doesn't Your Highness want to eat it?"

Hearing the borneol cake, the prince quietly swallowed.He scolded himself in his heart for not being able to live up to expectations, how could his body become immature and his mind become immature, and he was shaken by a broken pastry like a fool? !

Concubine Xu waited slightly for the troubled prince to give the answer.

At this moment, the crown prince's stomach growled uncontrollably.

In the silence, the sound of "Gulu Gulu" was particularly obvious.

"Then let's go to the palace." The prince blushed to hide it, and said immediately.He didn't forget to pull Xie Shen beside him, "Xie Shen also wants to go."

"I..." Xie Shen was just about to say that he didn't want to, but the prince gave him a hard look, and he could only lower his head aggrievedly and change his words, "I want to go too."

Concubine Xu Gui looked tenderly at Xie Shen who was becoming more and more like Xie Qian, and said softly: "Okay, young master Xie just tell the waiter what you want to eat, in Yunzhao Palace is like your own home."

Xie Shen felt uncomfortable with Concubine Xu's eyes, there were too many things in it that were too heavy for him to understand, so he turned to the head and hummed lightly.

Concubine Xu Gui took the two of them to Yunzhao Palace as she wished, and Chen Xiang prepared all kinds of cakes when the two just sat down with a wink.

There are so many beautiful things in eyes, color, fragrance and taste, the prince was still reserved when he opened it, but he couldn't stop after eating a piece.

Xie Shen's food is much more elegant, and it seems that his family education is very strict, no matter how delicious the food is, he must not lose his image.

Concubine Xu Gui looked at Xie Shen, but her gaze passed through him, and she saw Xie Qian from many years ago.

It was the same with Xie Qian back then. Concubine Xu Gui was Xie Qian's maid, every time she secretly looked at him, the other party would always be a gentleman, a bright pearl in the world, no matter how miserable the people around him were, he would always be spotless, like a bright moon in nine days, You can only see it from a distance, but you can never touch it.

"Cough cough!"

The earth-shattering cough brought Concubine Xu Gui back to her thoughts. Looking at the crown prince whose face was flushed from coughing, she hurriedly ordered someone to serve him tea, and said helplessly, "His Royal Highness, eat slowly, we have to eat later."

The crown prince stuffed another piece of pastry into his mouth, then wiped his mouth reluctantly, moved to Xu Guifei's side, and said, "Mother Concubine, what is this?".

Cannibalism is short-mouthed and soft-handed, the prince thinks he is not a person who eats and drinks for free, so of course he has to do something for Concubine Xu.

"This is the invitation card for this year's Chrysanthemum Appreciation Banquet. The empress ordered us to do it."

Concubine Xu Gui handed the invitation to the crown prince, "I will be in charge of the banquet list and writing the invitation."

The crown prince took the invitation, glanced at it casually, and suddenly asked: "Concubine Mu, do all first-rank imperial wives have to be invited?"

"Why, is there someone your Highness wants to invite?" Concubine Xu Gui could see what the prince was thinking at a glance, and asked with a smile.

"Yes." The crown prince admitted generously, "I would like to invite Xie Shen's sister, Lin Si, the daughter-in-law of the general's mansion."
