Chapter 625: Action
Li Jiao went back to her parents' house, but Mrs. Deng didn't see it, and Miss Li San didn't see it, and she didn't want to meet with He, so it was the second wife Liu who finally accompanied her to dinner.
Liu's mood is also not much better.
She hasn't taken care of her mess yet, so how can she have the leisure to eat with her niece in the next room who is a concubine.
But now that the masters of the house don't go out, it's not appropriate for her not to accompany her.
Liu secretly glanced at Li Jiao and pressed the corners of his lips.
It's annoying to be a concubine, stay in the palace unruly at this time, what are you doing when you come back?
"The second aunt has been reduced. Li Jiao looked concerned.
There are a total of four girls in Xifu, she entered the palace, Li San was given to the champion Hou, only the two daughters of the Liu family were not settled, and they felt that they were pressed by their stepmother and couldn't raise their heads.
In this way, she and this second aunt can get close to each other.
Liu Shi smiled when he heard this: "I'm bitter in summer." β
She's not interested in gossiping with big girls.
The smile on Li Jiao's face was almost uncontrollable.
It's just spring, what kind of bitter summer?
Come on, I can't eat this meal, let's go and meet the third brother, today is the day when the third brother rests.
Li Jiao sent the maid Xing'er to invite Li Hui to meet, and it didn't take long for Xing'er to come back and say: "Girl, the third prince said that you are a noble person in the palace, and this time is different from the past, although it is a brother and sister, it is not easy to meet in private, please go back early." β
Xing'er said it tactfully, remembering the look of the third prince when she said this, she sighed secretly in her heart.
Li Jiao's face was blue and white, and he couldn't stay any longer, so he returned to the Rui Wangfu with a sigh of relief.
King Rui was looking forward to it, and when he heard that Li Jiao was back, he raised his feet and came over.
"Isn't Miss Li still going?"
"Yes, my grandmother is a little uncomfortable, and the third sister has to serve the sick, so she doesn't have the heart to go out to the banquet. Li Jiao's face did not change and he was lying.
She didn't want to tell the truth that she hadn't seen Li San, and the prince would let her go again. When Li San still doesn't go, then she will have no face.
King Rui stood up.
"Lord, the concubine made tea-"
King Rui waved his hand: "No need, this king still has something to do, you can drink it yourself." β
"Lord Wang-" Li Jiao didn't even grab a sleeve of King Rui's coat, so he could only watch him walk away, so angry that he swept the teacup on the coffee table to the ground.
Xing'er hurriedly ran in and shouted cautiously: "Auntie-"
Li Jiao glared at Xing'er fiercely: "Are you wood, do you only know how to pestle, don't you clean it up quickly!"
"Bh. β
Listening to Xing'er's movements, Li Jiao was upset, and slammed the pillow hard and stood up.
can't go on like this, she is still a newcomer and the prince won't touch her, so won't she have no hope in the future?
Li Jiao walked out, wandering around the garden in a daze, and suddenly heard a low voice coming from behind the flowers and trees, and vaguely heard the word "Rui Wang" and couldn't help but stop and listen.
"Speaking of which, the new aunt is really pitiful, at the same age, she stays alone in the empty room every night......"
"I'm also curious, since the prince doesn't like the new aunt, why did he admit her into the mansion?"
The person who spoke before chuckled and said meaningfully: "What doesn't the prince likeββ"
There was no sound behind him, and Li Jiao was so anxious that he secretly clenched his fists.
What does this person mean? Could it be that the prince doesn't touch her? Why don't you go on!
"Oh, according to what you say, does the prince like the new aunt? If the prince likes it, will he not enter the door of the new aunt? I remember that more than a year ago, when Aunt Yun entered the house, the prince stayed in her house for three months. β
Li Jiao listened quietly, her face flushed.
That Aunt Yun she has seen, in terms of posture is far inferior to her, I heard that she is still a raccoon girl, and the prince accidentally met it during his spring outing.
is such a person who can keep the prince in the house for three months, but she has not had a room with the prince so far......
What exactly is the reason?
Li Jiao closed his eyes and wanted to rush in to ask.
Fortunately, the man opened his mouth again under the curious questioning of another person: "It's not that the prince doesn't like the new aunt, it's because he is powerless-"
"Hey, you mean the prince can't do it?"
Li Jiao was surprised and accidentally stepped on a dead branch on the ground, but fortunately it was covered by another person's exclamation, and he was scared into a cold sweat.
"Isn't it a good doctor's office, the prince has to take medicine every once in a while, just to regulate that aspect. β
When Li Jiao heard this, he suddenly realized.
No wonder the prince always has a faint smell of medicine on his body, I see!
"Can the prince still succeed?"
"Why not, just take that medicine and don't have much interest, because only by having a pure heart and few desires can you take care of your body. I heard the good doctor say that the prince is a little weak, and he doesn't need to do this for another year or two. β
"Isn't that new aunt miserable, and the prince will still remember who she is in two years. β
"Not really. Actually, the prince has not been close to women for almost a year, and he has been recuperating for so long, and it is the easiest time for people to conceive, but unfortunately these aunts in the house are not blessed......"
"Okay, don't talk about the prince's private affairs, beware of being heard, we will die. β
The two of them knew that Suo Suo had walked away, and Li Jiao slowly turned out, his face was as calm as a deep pool, but there was a fire dancing under his eyes.
The next day, King Rui finally got a reply from the champion Hou Hui to the banquet through Chi Can's message, but he was not in a good mood.
It's really a big loss to use a favor like this, but he promised the sixth child to invite the champion Hou, and if he didn't do it, he would lose face.
That's it, the favor is used, and there is a relationship between Li Xiu, and I am not afraid that I will not have the opportunity to get close to the champion Hou in the future.
King Rui comforted himself and raised his feet to go to Li Jiao.
Seeing King Rui coming, Li Jiao was secretly happy.
"What does it smell like?" said King Rui sniffed.
"The incense brought by the concubine from her mother's house, if the prince can't get used to it, the concubine will be changed. β
"No, it smells good. By the way, yesterday you said to make tea, could it be that Jiao Niang is still good at tea ceremony?" Thinking of yesterday's snub to Li Jiao, King Rui felt a little pity.
"I'm not good at it, but I'm just a little bit dabbling. If the prince wants to drink tea, the concubine will go to you for it. Li Jiao felt that everything was going very well, and if King Rui didn't mention it, she would also lead the topic to tea.
"Good. β
Li Jiao took out the tea set and began to demonstrate the tea art.
The girl is as quiet as a virgin, and her gestures are elegant in the fragrance of tea, and King Rui can't help but see God.
"Lord, please drink tea. Li Jiao lowered her eyebrows and smiled lightly, and offered fragrant tea.
King Rui took it and drank it, looking at the picturesque girl in front of him, the fire in his heart suddenly burst out irrepressibly, and the more it burned, the more it burned.
He reached out and pinched Li Jiao's wrist.
"Lord Wangβ" Li Jiao exclaimed, but he didn't dodge, staring at the man close at hand with a pair of watery eyes, and mustered up the courage to bring his lips up.
For a time, it was turned into a red wave, and the clouds and rain stopped at the beginning.
Li Jiao saw King Rui open his eyes, and bowed his head shyly: "Lord Wang, you are awake." β
