Chapter 23
"I know I'm wrong, can you wait to sleep first before scolding, I'm really tired now, so tired, like sleeping." She said coquettishly like a child who has done something wrong.

"Hey..." Di Huajiu sighed weakly: "Go to sleep." He really didn't know what to do with her, since they had only known each other for a few days.

Xiahou Shiyi fell into a deep sleep, as if with him by his side, everything became very at ease, she didn't know where and where this feeling came from.

It was already the afternoon of the next day when Xia Hou Shiyi woke up.

"Wake up, get up and eat something when you wake up, you've been sleeping all day." She had just started to move when a voice as warm as jade sounded in her ear.

Dihua Nine!
He is still here!
Xiahou Shiyi didn't know how to describe her mood at the moment.

Especially after thinking about her most embarrassing scene yesterday being seen by the other party, it made her even more at a loss as to what to do.

After a long time, she slowly said: "Well, can you go out for a while, I, I need to change clothes, it's inconvenient for lonely men and widows." After saying this, her face was completely red.

"You will care about this." His voice was so flat that no one could hear his joy or anger.

But for some reason, Xia Hou Shiyi always felt that there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.

That's right, if she sleeps so peacefully in front of a man like her, I'm afraid there will be no other woman in this world who dares to say that she is pregnant with someone else's child when they meet for the first time.

"Of course I don't care, it's just that your future wife will care." She took a deep breath, with a hint of sourness in her tone, and I believe that no woman would want her husband to talk to her before starting to talk to her. There are many women.

"Future wife, aren't you the one!?" He leaned on the soft bed that didn't know when it was added, half propped his head, his black hair slanted down with his arms, but it was a little less sacred than usual. Unattainable and unattainable, a little more laziness in the world.

"Could it be that the high priest forgot that you just said the day before yesterday that I was just given to the high priest by the emperor to warm your bed, so I can't be treated as a wife." Xiahou Shiyi's voice was a little faint, cold, and a little sour Sour, astringent.

She did not forget that day, when he washed her red robe into water red, and said in front of all the princes and ministers of Zhongli Kingdom that she was not worthy of being red.

"You reminded me. Since you are my bed-warming concubine, you can also be regarded as a kind of husband and wife. It is very convenient for me to stay here, and there is no such thing as a lonely man or a widow." Dihua Jiu said slowly.

Xiahou Shiyi took a deep breath: "High Priest, although the emperor gave me to you, we haven't performed the salute or paid homage, so we can't be regarded as husband and wife because we are not right and proper."

"It's not easy to handle, let's pay homage tonight." Dihua Jiu straightened up slowly.

"Impossible." Shi Yi was shocked when he heard that he would worship tonight, and blurted out the words to stop him.

"Why not." Di Huajiu's voice was not as gentle as it was earlier, but rather cold.

"High Priest, think about it, this marriage ceremony is a big event, you have to choose an auspicious day, how can you be so hasty." Xiahou Shiyi lowered his head slightly.

"It's up to me what auspicious day it is." He answered very domineeringly, and the air-conditioning in his voice was a little stronger than before.

Xiahou Shiyi was stunned, and then he understood that he is the high priest of the Zhongli Kingdom, the god in the eyes of the people, he can have as many auspicious days as he wants, and any day he wants will be that day.

Sensing the coldness in Di Huajiu's voice, in order not to make him suspicious, Xiahou Shiyi held back his anger for a long time, making his little face look very blushing.

"Getting married is not just as simple as choosing an auspicious day, but also preparing wedding clothes, such as three books and six appointments. It's easy to get these three books and six appointments, but the best thing is to embroider a woman's wedding dress herself."

She was secretly anxious in her heart, even though the emperor gave her to Dihua Jiu, she never saw herself as Dihua Jiu's woman.She never thought about marrying Dihua Jiu, let alone a concubine.

Besides, her body is only 15 years old, and she is still a young girl, how can she marry someone under age.

"Although the emperor just gave me to you as a concubine, I can't wear the red wedding dress to get married, but I still want to wear the wedding dress embroidered by myself."

"Okay, you don't need to prepare the wedding dress." Dihua Jiu's eyes flickered, he got up and walked out of the house.

Although she knew that he didn't have herself in her heart, and keeping herself by her side was a temporary novelty, but she didn't know why, after hearing what he said, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

Faintly, she heard his voice coming from outside the door: "Go and change your lady's clothes."

"Miss, the high priest is actually very concerned about you. You don't know how anxious the high priest was when he saw you fainted last night. Later, he stayed by the young lady's side all the time, without even closing his eyes."

Zhu Ruo hesitated for a long time, but still spoke out what was in his heart.

She didn't know what happened between her young lady and the high priest, but she could still see that the high priest had a complicated expression when he left.

The high priest is the future husband that the emperor pointed out to her young lady, so she naturally does not want conflicts between her young lady and the high priest.

Xia Hou Shiyi lowered her eyes and said nothing, her heart throbbed slightly. It turned out that he had always stayed by her side and never left.

Was her attitude a little too much just now? Forget it, treat him better the next time we meet.

Xia Hou Shiyi, who had slept all day, looked very energetic. Speaking of which, this time she was a blessing in disguise.

Although eager for quick success and instant benefit, forcing a breakthrough almost killed her, but because of the spiritual power delivered to her by Dihua Jiu, she not only broke through, but also jumped two steps, directly skipping the orange step and becoming the yellow step. A first-class cultivator.

Looking at the cold food on the table, Xiahou Shiyi's heart gradually sank to the bottom.

He won't come back tonight, that's right, she refused so sharply during the day, as proud and noble as him, how could she come to her again to seek guilt.

These meals were tossed out by her in the afternoon to give Dihua Jiu a 'thank you'.

Although her cooking skills are not very good, the food she cooks can still be eaten, and it won't poison people to death.

Just when Xia Hou Shiyi no longer had any hope and was about to remove all the food on the table, there was a slight fluctuation in the air, and then, that faint, familiar fragrance came to his nostrils.

"Here we come." Xia Hou Shiyi quickly turned around and looked at the visitor with a smile.

"Let's see if you're dead, lest there will be rumors about me killing my wife." Di Huajiu looked at the cold food on the table and raised his eyebrows:
"This is?" What he didn't realize was that after seeing the food on that table, the lines on his face softened a little.

"I made it with my own hands, thank you for saving your life last night." Xia Hou Shiyi was slightly embarrassed: "It's already cold, I'll warm it up."

"No need." Di Huajiu said and waved his big hand, and the food on the table was steaming hot in an instant.

Xiahou picks up the black line, even if his cultivation base is deep, his spiritual power is not wasted like this.

"I'll give this back to you." Xiahou Shiyi handed the quaint space bracelet to Dihua Jiu.

Both of them tacitly did not mention what happened during the day.

"Since I gave it to you, it's yours, so you don't have to return it to me." Di Huajiu glanced at the space bracelet, looked at her, and said in a cold tone:

"Don't you want to learn alchemy? The things in it are just for you to practice your hands. There are also a few exercises, which are also suitable for you to practice now."

Xiahou Shiyi looked at Dihua Jiu, then at the space bracelet, finally took out the exercises inside, and handed the space bracelet to Dihua Jiu again. "As for alchemy or something, I still don't need it, and it's a waste to give it to me."

She was frying the oven all afternoon yesterday, so don't waste any more medicinal materials.

"Don't try, maybe you will succeed this time." Di Huajiu said in a calm tone. "Maybe you failed because those things were bad products."

Xia Hou picked up the black line, this excuse is lame, the medicinal materials used in refining medicine are not all the same, where did the inferior products come from!
"No need." She didn't want to blow up the stove again, she was already ugly enough in front of him, she couldn't throw it away again.

"With me here, you are still afraid of frying the stove!" Dihua Jiu seemed to have mind reading skills: "Just do it with confidence and boldness, I guarantee that even if the sky falls, it won't hurt you at all."

In the end, Xiahou Shiyi still couldn't hold back Di Huajiu, so he rushed the duck to the shelves, planning to try again.

Anyway, the most serious consequence after a failure is to blow up the stove again, and he doesn't worry about it, who else will she show it to.

Xiahou Shiyi couldn't help laughing when he thought of Dihua Jiu's unearthly, alluring immortal face that was blackened and whitened by the frying furnace.

She took out the materials one by one from the space ring, and even the medicine cauldron was required by Dihua Jiu to use the one in the space bracelet.

During the heating process, she took the time to look at the medicine cauldron in front of her.

This medicine tripod is half a meter high, black and red all over, reminiscent of the color of blood after it dries up, with irregular cloud patterns engraved all over its body, and the word "Minghuo" on one corner, presumably this is the name of the medicine tripod up.

After the temperature inside the medicine cauldron reached a certain level, Xiahou Shiyi followed the steps to put the medicinal materials into the medicine cauldron one by one, and then began to control the heat.

Like this, it lasted for about an hour, and when her forehead began to overflow with sweat, a faint scent of medicine finally came from the cauldron.

It's done, but there is no fryer!
Xiahou Shiyi was overjoyed, took a deep breath, and a rare smile from the bottom of his heart curled up on the corner of his mouth.

She slowly opened the lid, and the scent of medicine filled the whole room in an instant.
