Xiao Qi held Qing Dai with a deep look in his eyes, as if he was thinking of the past.
Three years ago, he was proud to be the number one scholar in high school and married Princess Wei Shu. This should have been a great joy, but he was not happy at all.
Because he didn't like Wei Shu at all, and there was no emotion between them.
Wei Shu is indeed beautiful, and he is always fascinated by her appearance, but when he is sober, he will know what he wants and will not be confused by beauty at all.
Later, he gradually began to flirt with Qing Dai next to Wei Shu, and developed some feelings for her.
He had keenly realized that King Wei was too fatuous and needed a backer, so he tried his best to get into the eyes of Prince Wei Zhao and make suggestions for him.
It was his intention to flee to Qingzhou the day before the country was overthrown. He keenly felt that if he stayed in Wei, there would be no good end, so he had to save his life first anyway.
At that time, he only brought Qingdai. As for Wei Shu, he didn't consider it at all. He even hoped that if Wei Shu died there, he didn't expect that she would do such a shameless thing!
When I thought that I had been deceived by Wei Shu's skin, I really felt disgusted.
Qingdai couldn't explain what she felt at this moment. They had all been prepared that Wei Shu would die in that palace chaos, but they never expected that things would develop like this.
Could Wei Shu, who usually looks dignified and gentle, really become so shameless?
But it's none of her business, as long as she stays with Xiao Qi.
…
Chu Xiao was sitting in a chair and concentrating on various matters. The only restless factor now was Qingzhou. As long as he caught the escaped prince Wei Zhao, he would be the complete master of the world.
"Your Majesty, this is the lotus seed soup sent from the kitchen."
Chu Xiao was immersed in his own thoughts. He just glanced casually and saw a very thin little eunuch who was holding the bowl of lotus root high with his head lowered.
"Put it over."
I have been sitting here for almost two hours, and I am indeed a little thirsty. A bowl of lotus seed soup would be good.
"yes!"
Tao Yao lowered her voice, her eyes sparkling with excitement, and she stepped forward and placed the lotus seed soup on the edge of the table.
"You can quit."
Chu Xiao still didn't pay attention to the people around him. He went through everything roughly and found that there were basically no problems.
The King of Wei was originally stupid and unprincipled and unpopular with the people, so the people did as they should. How could they feel injustice for a stupid and unprincipled king?
As soon as he put down his pen, he found that his arm was suddenly hugged by a pair of hands. He suddenly looked at the person hugging his arm. It was Taoyao!
But she changed into the clothes of a young eunuch, and she looked more and more dapper, but not very charming.
"It's you?"
There was a smile in Chu Xiao's eyes. He hadn't paid serious attention to it just now. If he listened carefully, he could hear Tao Yao's voice.
"Of course it's me!" Tao Yao pouted and snorted, "I know His Majesty is busy with things, so I came here in person to accompany Your Majesty. The lotus seed soup is very sweet!"
Tao Yao smiled happily and let go of her hand, brought up the lotus seed soup, then naturally sat on Chu Xiao's lap, and brought spoonfuls to Chu Xiao's mouth.
Chu Xiao didn't know what Tao Yao was trying to do, but he still subconsciously opened his mouth and immediately felt the sweetness of the lotus seed soup. It was really sweet.
In fact, I originally thought about going over to see her tonight, but I really didn't expect that she would come by herself and dress up like this.
It's not at all different from his usual dignified and gentle appearance. Instead, it's a bit more playful and a bit fresh.
"Okay," Chu Xiao took a few sips and then brought the bowl over and put it on the table. He didn't want to drink the lotus seed soup at this moment, he just wanted to taste Tao Yao's bright red lips.
Tao Yao closed her eyes and enjoyed it. Let her continue the real fate between Wei Shu and Chu Xiao!
Anyway, the consort Xiao Qi is unreliable, and his brother Wei Zhao is even more unreliable. I'm afraid he used countless dirty words to curse her after learning that she became a concubine, right?
It's really ridiculous. As the prince, he ran away early, how could he have the nerve to reprimand his sister?
"I really miss Your Majesty so much," Tao Yao shrank into Chu Xiao's arms after the kiss.
"I guess you have been married before?"
Chu Xiao mentioned this matter again. Yes, he had always remembered it, and there was a knot in his mind.
"Yes," Taoyao nodded generously. What does this mean?
"The imperial decree granting marriage was issued by my father. It's just because my two sisters, Wei Yao and Wei Yan, don't like me, so my father wanted me to get married early so as not to be an eyesore to them!"
Tao Yao choked up a bit as she spoke. In fact, Wei Shu's fate with Chu Xiao was her life-saving straw, but it was slowly exhausted and worn away.
Chu Xiao held Tao Yao's hand tighter, but he didn't expect that she would live such a wronged life.
In fact, thinking about it, when I saw the two princesses pointing at her and scolding her that day, I knew what it was like to get along with each other on weekdays.
"The prince-in-law Xiao Qi seems to be a handsome gentleman, and he treats me with respect as a guest, but in the end he still lied to me. When he left, he didn't care about me at all, but he took away the slaves around me!"
In fact, Taoyao probably understood why Wei Shu and Xiao Qi couldn't have any feelings.
Xiao Qi thought that he would be able to shine in the court as the top student in high school, but he did not expect that all his dreams would be interrupted after he became the consort, so he was really resentful of Wei Shu.
Wei Shu, on the other hand, just got married in a haphazard manner. She only knew that her husband seemed to be a very nice person, and she thought that the two of them should respect each other as guests.
She thought that she was living a loving life as a husband and wife, but she didn't enjoy much love in the palace. She thought that her husband's good looks and casual words of care would be love.
But she didn't expect that as the days passed slowly, Xiao Qi would develop a different kind of feeling for Qingdai who was waiting beside her. Later, the two of them often looked at each other behind Wei Shu's back, secretly developing feelings for each other.
Xiao Qi was still unwilling to give up his dream of going to court, and secretly made many plans that caught Wei Zhao's attention. Even this time, it was him who had the idea to escape one day in advance.
He also specially brought Qingdai with him, but he forgot to bring his former wife.
"Even so, he doesn't have any place for me in his heart, so he and I will no longer be husband and wife. Your Majesty saved me and gave me everything I have now. My heart is naturally towards Your Majesty!"
Tao Yao said softly, and when she saw the displeasure in Chu Xiao's eyes slowly disappearing, she knew that her words were probably a compliment to him again, right?
Men do like to hear these words, but they also like to hear these words from the woman they like.
Sure enough, Chu Xiao no longer felt that jealous and unhappy feeling. In fact, on the day he invaded Wei State, someone came to report that they had seen Princess Wei Shu.
At that time, he had already made up his mind to keep Wei Shu by his side. Three years ago, he was a step too late and Wei Shu married someone else. This time, he must stay by his side!
"I don't care what you were like before, I just know that from that day on you belong to Gu"
In fact, he really wanted to say that he had met Wei Shu a long time ago and had personally ordered Wei Shu not to be hurt, but he didn't want to say this.
"Your Majesty is wise, powerful, and handsome. What woman wouldn't like it? If I'm not wrong, there are quite a few women who want to stay with His Majesty during this period, right?"
Tao Yao touched Chu Xiao's face, raised her brows slightly, and said intentionally or unintentionally.
Chu Xiao only killed the Wei royal family, and other people could live if they were willing to surrender, so he wanted to send his daughter to Chu Xiao to be a concubine, so as to consolidate his future status, but Chu Xiaotong refused.
"I don't care about those things, so don't use these little clever things on me!"
How could Chu Xiao not understand the meaning behind this? It was precisely because he understood it that he was disdainful.
There is really no need to depend on women for his future future. He is not as dissolute and unscrupulous as King Wei. He just turned a blind eye after taking in someone else's daughter. That's impossible!
"Your Majesty is even more charming."
Tao Yao leaned into Chu Xiao's ear and whispered, and breathed out hot breath.
Hongluo waited alone in the hall for a long time, and it was not until it was already late that she waited for Taoyao to come back. Moreover, she had to be carried back in a sedan chair, otherwise her back would be really sore.
Taoyao immediately slumped down on the recliner, and Hongluo squeezed her legs. She actually knew that the princess was going to deliver lotus seed soup, and she didn't come back for so long, so she also knew what happened.
I can’t explain exactly what it feels like. I just know that the princess in the past was not like this at all. How could she do such a bold thing?
But they also knew that if the princess hadn't changed, they probably wouldn't have survived long ago. It was precisely because of this that they felt sour in their hearts.
It is really difficult for a woman to survive in such troubled times.
Tao Yao didn't care so much at all. She came to the human world for a quick trip and naturally wanted to have fun. Not to mention that as a peach blossom spirit attracting bees and butterflies, that was perfectly normal!
"Without that annoying sound these days, I feel that sleeping is more comfortable!"
Taoyao narrowed her eyes slightly and carefully enjoyed the tranquility of this moment.
Under Chu Xiao's tough tactics, the rumors in the palace were indeed stopped, but only on the surface. I couldn't control what was going on in my heart.
I'm afraid the people outside will say something even more unpleasant, probably accusing her of being shameless. It's really shameful that she is willing to become His Majesty's concubine in order to survive even though she is already married!
"Yes, no one dares to say those words now. They are all afraid of His Majesty. How dare they go against His Majesty!"
Hong Luo felt a little angry inside and outside her words, but she felt that it would be quite good to be protected by His Majesty now!
Because those rumors were so ugly, as if the princess did not die or sacrifice herself for the country, as if she had made a big mistake.
Even if she was going to die, why would she let the princess die?
Although the princess grew up in the palace, she still suffered a lot of grievances. Even the prince ran away without knowing where he was. If he were to die, the prince should die first!
It is really unfair for the prince to abandon Wei and run away without being criticized by the princess in such an unbearable way!
"So, I deeply feel how important it is to choose a reliable man!"
Tao Yao shook her head and sighed. It is really important for a woman to choose a reliable man in troubled times. Compared with Chu Xiao and the consort Xiao Qi, Chu Xiao is really much more useful!
Now that we are in a position where the weak can only rely on, if we don't choose a good man, I'm afraid this life will be over.
Wei Shu's life was really rough. The most fatal thing was that she thought she was married to a good man and fully expected her husband to save her, but she was still disappointed in the end.
