Concubine Shu opened it curiously, took a look, and her face turned red. She hurriedly closed the book with her bare hands and said coquettishly: "Xiao Chen, what kind of mess are you looking for?"
"This..." Xiao Chen looked innocent and smiled harmlessly, "Mother, isn't it written here? "Spring Lady's Banquet" Lanling is full of smiles. This is the most popular storybook in the world. It tells the story of a beautiful woman named Chun Niang. Because she married a fool and was lonely in her boudoir, she often held banquets to entertain all kinds of guests..."
"Look, my dear, the men here include men of letters, scholars, and knights..."
"Stop talking!" Concubine Shu covered Xiao Chen's mouth, her face so shy that it looked like a red apple.
But the next moment, she realized something was wrong and immediately took her hand back.
"Don't look at these frivolous things in the future! Also," Concubine Shu said seriously, rarely mentioning the concubine's coldness and majesty to Xiao Chen, "What do you think of me? How dare you treat me like this?" Like that slutty woman?"
As she said that, her pained look became real, and she couldn't help but frown and look at Xiao Chen intently.
Originally she was just joking with Xiao Chen, but this casual remark actually reminded her!
"You go, I'm tired and want to be alone for a while."
Concubine Shu was in a heavy heart, and her pretty face could not help but be covered with a look of self-pity, which made people feel pity for her.
Xiao Chen bought these books to please her, but unexpectedly they made her sad.
"Empress!" Xiao Chen couldn't help but hold her back, wanting to explain something.
At this moment, the little palace maid outside the door hurriedly came to announce, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty has come to our Shuya Palace!"
Concubine Shu's face darkened, this time she was truly disgusted.
"Where are you?" Concubine Shu asked displeasedly, nervously putting away the little book in her hands.
Xiao Chen looked at her with a suppressed smile, and an earthy sentence flashed through his mind, "A woman says she doesn't want it, but her body is very honest."
After hurriedly putting it away, Concubine Shu looked up and met Xiao Chen's evil-smiling gaze. She couldn't get angry anymore and had no choice but to give him a look.
Wan'er replied: "Your Majesty has already arrived outside the palace wall. He will be there as soon as you speak."
Concubine Shu had no choice but to straighten her palace skirt and look upright in preparation for the reception.
It was obviously too late for Xiao Chen to leave at this time, so he followed Concubine Shu and waited calmly for Chu Yanwu.
Chu Yanwu was full of joy and walked in with great interest. When he saw Xiao Chen was there, he couldn't help but be surprised, "Oh? Xiao Chen, you are here too."
"This servant is reporting something to Concubine Shu and is about to leave."
Xiao Chen smiled calmly and calmly.
That's the good thing about being a eunuch, no matter what you say, no one will doubt it.
As expected, Chu Yanwu didn't have the slightest doubt, he just waved his hand and said, "Don't be busy yet, I just have something to ask you."
With that said, he motioned to Concubine Shu to serve him tea.
Chu Yanwu sat down leisurely on the chair and opened his dragon steps widely, showing a natural majesty and nobility.
He waited for Concubine Shu to serve him as he should, and the arrogance on his face was more like saying, "I'm giving you face by asking you to serve me"!
Xiao Chen looked unhappy, or more accurately, jealous.
He didn't want to see Concubine Shu getting close to anyone other than himself.
With a surge of anger, and because he originally wanted to deal with Di Ying and his gang, Xiao Chen simply exaggerated and exaggerated. His powerful storytelling ability made Chu Yanwu frown.
"Your Majesty, they clearly don't respect you and don't take you seriously! Is it tolerable, but who can't be tolerated? Even though you are a famous king through the ages, you still have the power to stand up. You see..."
Deceiving people, isn't this just a matter of words? Xiao Chen didn't care about admiring it at all.
Chu Yanwu was indeed furious, his majestic eyes suppressed his anger, and he said in a cold voice: "A group of people who don't know whether to live or die. Xiao Qing, I will leave this matter to you. You can handle it as much as you want without worrying too much."
"Yes! With your Majesty's words, I will know what to do! What I hate most in my life is those who disrespect Your Majesty, and I will reap the rewards!"
Xiao Chen was very pious from his expression to his tone. He was clearly a good general and loyal minister, and he was extremely loyal.
Chu Yanwu nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Concubine Shu.
The beauty's pleasing appearance made him feel much better, especially Concubine Shu's calm, elegant, cold and noble demeanor, which was more like a white snow lotus blooming on an iceberg, which made people calm down in body and mind inadvertently.
"My dear concubine, I haven't been to your place for a few days, but you are so cruel that you don't even know to visit me?" Chu Yanwu deliberately teased Concubine Shu.
There weren't many concubines in this palace that he could condescend to. If other women heard this, they would be very charming and courteous immediately.
But Concubine Shu just said calmly: "I know that Your Majesty is busy with government affairs, how can I cause trouble to His Majesty?"
One sentence instantly choked Chu Yanwu. '
But she didn't make any mistakes. The most important thing was that Chu Yanwu just liked her.
The more Concubine Shu behaves like this, the more Chu Yanwu feels that she is different.
"My dear concubine, you always think too much about me. I can't help it. You are always so reserved. It's the only reason why I can't bear the lovesickness and come to you."
As he said that, Chu Yanwu glanced at Xiao Chen and chased him away, "Why, is there anything else that Xiao Qing has not reported yet? Or is there anything in the palace that is more important than Concubine Shu giving birth to a prince for me? "
Xiao Chen stood up hurriedly, but did not speak. He deliberately raised his head to look at Concubine Shu, as if to ask her for instructions, "Your Majesty, shall I resign first? If your Majesty has any details that you haven't clarified, will you send your young apprentice here another day?"
Concubine Shu's face darkened, "You're disrespectful! His Majesty asked you to do a few things and valued you, so you stopped doing your job? You can't even understand the affairs in the palace, and you are becoming more and more neglectful!"
"Empress, slave..." Xiao Chen couldn't help crying, and looked pitifully to Chu Yanwu for help.
Chu Yanwu still wants to continue using this knife, how can he get splinted? At least not in person.
"My beloved concubine," Chu Yanwu said hurriedly, "This is my fault. Are you...blaming me?"
Of course he was joking, but Concubine Shu immediately stepped down the steps and hurriedly saluted: "Your Majesty, forgive me. I was nervous for a moment and lost my sense of proportion."
It was rare for her to have such respect for Chu Yanwu. Chu Yanwu was very helpful and his tone became gentler: "My dear concubine, why do you say this? It's not like you don't know how I treat you? There is nothing to be nervous about.'"
"Concubine, today... I am inconvenient and I dare not offend the dragon body. Therefore, I am afraid that I can only let Your Majesty come here in joy and return in despair." Concubine Shu lowered her head apologetically, and her dignified voice became more serious. Like an invisible shackles.
Chu Yanwu was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly and said: "So that's it. My beloved, you are really worrying too much. I'm not that tyrant, so how can I blame you for this? Get up quickly, don't be afraid."
"yes."
Concubine Shu then stood up.
There was still nothing strange about her mood, she was as quiet as ever.
But when Wan'er helped her stand up, her eyes couldn't help but fall on Xiao Chen.
At this moment, Xiao Chen happened to be secretly looking at her.
The two people's eyes met, and for a moment there was some indescribable emotion, a tacit understanding that only the two of them understood, flowing secretly.
"She rejected the emperor because of me!" A thought flashed through Xiao Chen's mind.
Everyone in the palace was looking forward to Chu Yanwu's favor, but Concubine Shu rejected Chu Yanwu for him. Why didn't Xiao Chen dare to move?
"Oh, by the way, I still have some memorials to read, so I can't stay here too long. I'll see you another day."
Being rejected, Chu Yanwu felt very humiliated and really didn't want to stay here any longer.
Xiao Chen and Concubine Shu sent Chu Yanwu, the god of plague, away together. This time, it was stamped by Chu Yanwu, and he could stay in Shuya Hall openly and honestly.
Xiao Chen followed Concubine Shu in a hurry, "Mother, let's read that book together, okay?"
