Chapter 258: Tsundere Emperor's Cold Reception
When Xu Fuduo came over with wine and food, I finished talking to Jinxiu. Jinxiu's face was still flushed with shyness and unconcealed joy, which made Xu Fuduo look a little inexplicable.
I told others not to tell others about the promise I made to Jinxiu, and Jinxiu is usually not a big talker, which makes me feel very relieved. I don't plan to tell Xu Fuduo now, after all, there are still three years to go, and it's hard to say how many variables there are. Letting Hongli know about my arrangement too soon is likely to make him misunderstand whether I have any ulterior motives in doing this, or whether it is better to let everything seem to go its course.
At this time, it was already over, and there was still no news from the Heart Cultivation Palace, and I began to wonder if I was too confident in Yinzhen's judgment, after all, the relationship between the two over the years was not as close as it was back then, and who knew how much he cared about him. What's more, he has always been a workaholic, and the news that came before was that he was still making excerpts, and it seemed that it would be very late.
The wind was getting stronger outside, and I took a deep breath and laughed at myself a little self-deprecatingly at how depressed I was because of his coldness. Feelings need to be maintained, but I have never deliberately fought for and maintained this relationship, so I will only get the current result when I need to use it, who can blame me, I can only sigh and live for my own sin.
But it also gave me a slap in the face. I am no longer young, although the years have not left me too many traces because of my usual conditioning and maintenance, and I still look like I am in my early twenties. But it's not enough to have a look, there will never be a shortage of people who are younger than themselves and much more beautiful than themselves in this deep palace, and what can really keep the emperor's heart is the old love and those warmth worth recalling.
But feelings are more passable than years, and no matter how vigorous love is, it will slowly fade with time. I am soberly aware that if I don't try my best to redeem it, I'm afraid that when this relationship is completely cooled in his heart and replaced by someone else, it will be difficult for me to have the ability to compete with that person. Is that man also waiting for this day to come......
"Let's go back to the house, it's too cold outside. I took a deep breath to regain my composure and got up and walked back into the house.
Xu Fuduo saw that I was in a bad mood and didn't dare to say anything, and seeing that I didn't say whether to eat the wine or food, he had to signal the attendant to take the wine and food and follow back to the house.
"The wine and food will be on the table," I said, "according to the emperor's taste, make another one and send it to the Heart Cultivation Palace...... You can send it in person and give it to Grandpa Su."
"But do you want to ask Manager Su to help me say something?" Xu Fuduo asked cautiously.
"No, remember to tell Grandpa Su not to say that it was sent by me. I took the soup woman handed by Jinxiu, leaned on the couch and said lazily.
Xu Fuduo retreated, and Jinxiu on the side asked puzzledly: "Since the master is so concerned about the emperor, why doesn't he let the emperor know the master's mind?"
After the previous conversation, Jinxiu was obviously a lot closer to me when she spoke. I should also think that if I asked her to read and learn more, she dared to ask something she didn't understand.
I looked at Jinxiu and smiled lightly, and said, "Even if you don't say it, the emperor will know that I sent it when he sees it, because only I know what he likes and dislikes, especially in terms of food." You have to remember that if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first grab a man's stomach, and this statement is true. At the same time, you have to understand his character and mind. The emperor has never liked people to play tricks on him, but he didn't summon me this time, and I think it was because the food sent in the morning made him think that I had something to ask for, and he didn't like me to ignore me when I was fine, and only began to be courteous when I had something, so he deliberately coldly treated me, even if it was a beating, he also wanted to see what I would do next. Men, no matter how old they are, there is a child who will never grow up in their hearts. ”
"That'...... Now that the master has been eating again, won't it make the emperor misunderstand that the master has a plan?"
I poured myself a glass of osmanthus wine, and the aroma of osmanthus mixed with the aroma of wine immediately filled the whole room, making people a little drunk before drinking. After drinking, the fragrant fragrance of osmanthus wine remains between the lips and teeth, the body and mind are relaxed, and the brain becomes more and more sober.
"No, because I deliberately asked Xu Fuduo to tell Father-in-law Su not to say that I sent it. Father-in-law Su will definitely not say anything first. In this way, when the emperor is almost hungry after being busy, he may ask himself when he sees these again. And these things are not made by me, and the purpose is not so deliberate and obvious, the emperor will be curious about what I want to do, if I can't wait for an answer, he will naturally come to me to ask for an understanding. ”
That's what I've just figured out. Yinzhen is a person who likes to take the initiative into his own hands, he doesn't like others to play tricks on him, and likes to give it to himself, rather than asking for it. In the morning, I suddenly delivered food, and it seemed to him that I must have a purpose, that is, to play tricks with him, and I took the initiative to ask him, which made him a little worried, so he had such a cold reaction to beat me. But now I'm starting to do it in a different way, so that he can't figure out what I want to do, and this has become his active inquiry, and when he talks about his purpose frankly, he will be willing to listen and accept it.
Jinxiu didn't continue to ask, and stood aside and pondered my words. I don't want to speak, while savoring the wine made from the dewy osmanthus flowers specially picked in the early morning in August last year, while enjoying the tranquility and comfort of the moment, letting all the emotions settle and combing through the next steps.
Early the next morning, Su Peisheng asked someone to hand over the message, saying that the osmanthus brew sent last night was good, and let him send more.
Is osmanthus stuffed good? That's good, with Su Peisheng's words, I'm relieved. This is Su Peisheng's hint to me, indicating that Yinzhen has used those foods, and he has not refused or been displeased, but he likes osmanthus wine very much.
Whether you really like osmanthus wine, no one knows. But he released an attitude, that is, "I know you have something to ask, and I don't refuse, it depends on whether you can make me interested in listening to you."
With such an attitude, it is easy to do, who allows himself to be such an emperor and husband who is cold on the outside and arrogant on the inside.
I handed over a medicinal diet recipe for regulating Yinzhen's body to Xu Fuduo, and asked him to hand it over to Su Peisheng when he personally sent the wine to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and instructed Su Peisheng to find the imperial doctor to see if there was anything wrong with the ingredients and dosage in the recipe, and if there was nothing wrong, he would make it for Yinzhen every morning and evening to take for recuperation.
As before, I specially told Su Peisheng not to tell Yinzhen that I arranged it this way. Of course, there are some things that need not be said much and will be tacitly understood, and everyone is an understanding person.
