Li Yan'er hugged Xiao Wenxuan's thigh to be his woman, so frightened that Xiao Wenxuan stood up and jumped away quickly like shaking a toad that climbed up his leg.

"You? You get the hell out of here. ”

Xiao Wenxuan was furious, and his eyebrows and eyes all stood up.

"No shadow." Xiao Wenxuan shouted.

Wuying ran over when he heard the news and saw Li Yan'er getting up from the ground and was about to pounce on Xiao Wenxuan.

Shadowless frowned, pulled her arm back, and pulled her leg out of the door.

"Lord Wang, don't be afraid of her. You are the prince, how can she be the only one around. ”

"Princess, you jealous woman. If you are selfish and don't think about the prince, you will be retributed sooner or later......"

"Let her go."

Su Muling, who had not spoken, put down his chopsticks and wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.

"Ling'er ......"

Xiao Wenxuan looked at her worriedly.

Su Muling raised his hand to stop Xiao Wenxuan.

Wuying looked back at Xiao Wenxuan, and Xiao Wenxuan nodded silently. Wuying pulled Li Yan'er back again. At Su Muling's feet.

Su Muling stared at her for a long time, and then asked, "Li Yan'er, do you really want to stay by the prince's side and serve the prince?" ”

"Yes."

There was a hint of excitement in Li Yan'er's eyes.

Su Muling saw it in his eyes and continued to ask: "I once said that our family is not more noble than other princes, and we are very frugal in food and clothing, can you bear it?" ”

"If the princess can bear it, I can bear it."

Li Yan'er's face shone brightly, and her voice was a few degrees higher to show her determination.

"Alright, I'll give you a chance. But you have to sign a contract with me to prove that you are willing to stay. ”

Su Muling's voice was cold, and his expression became serious.

Li Yan'er nodded: "Yes." ”

"Ling'er...... You foolishness! Xiao Wenxuan shook his hand angrily and left.

Su Muling ignored him and got up and went to the study next door.

Not long after, Su Muling came out, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and asked Xichun to hand it to Li Yan'er.

"It's a contract, sign it and you can stay."

Li Yan'er took it and read it, and the content was that she volunteered to stay as a slave and a maid.

Li Yan'er didn't think about it, took the pen in Xichun's hand, signed it and pressed her handprint.

She knew that the side concubine was just a title, but it was actually the prince's concubine. She has achieved the purpose of entering the palace, and the next step is to become the concubine of the prince, and then the princess next to the prince.

Li Yan'er felt that she was getting closer and closer to her purpose, and her heart was about to take off happily.

"I almost forgot, your name has to be changed, you have to have a catchy one, huh...... Let's call it Akika. ”

"The name was given by my father, and I don't change the name."

When Li Yan'er heard that Su Muling had changed her name to Qiu Xiang, she objected loudly.

"Your people are still born to your father, don't you also come to me to be a slave and a slave on your own initiative." Su Muling raised his eyes.

"Cherish the spring, take Qiuxiang down to change her clothes. Arrange for her to serve by the prince's side. ”

Su Muling put away the contract and went back to the room.

Xichun was also very puzzled by Su Muling's behavior, but seeing Su Muling's firm expression, she knew that she had made up her mind, and no one could persuade her.

She walked up to Li Yan'er and ordered in annoyance: "Follow me." ”

Although Li Yan'er was dissatisfied with the name change, she entered the palace as she wished. She couldn't give up her hard-won achievements because of a title, and went out with Xichun upside down.

In the yard, they met a pomegranate. Xichun pulled Pomegranate aside and whispered in her ear what had just happened.

Pomegranate was not as worried as Xichun, and rolled her eyes to her, "You take her first, and I'll come right away." ”

Xichun took him to an empty room where no one lived in it, pointed to one of the wooden beds and said coldly:

"You'll live here from now on. Three meals a day are eaten with the next person. Wake up before midnight every day and prepare hot water for washing for the master. ”

"Also, take off your clothes and jewelry, and put on this."

Pomegranate came in from outside and threw a coarse cloth garment in front of Li Yan'er.

Li Yan'er picked up her clothes and glared at her: "What is this?" This is what the next person wears, I don't wear it. ”

Pomegranate sneered:

"Who do you think you are? In this courtyard, except for the prince and princess, they are all subordinates. If you feel wronged, it's still too late to leave, no one wants to keep you in this mansion. ”

Li Yan'er glared at Pomegranate, but couldn't refute it. She swore in front of Xiao Wenxuan that she would stay by his side and serve him, which had a double meaning.

"Go out, and I'll change my clothes." Lee began to remove the jewelry from her head.

Xichun and Pomegranate remained motionless, still staring at her.

"I want to change my clothes." Li Yan'er glared.

Pomegranate thrust her waist and raised her eyebrows: "I want to check what you brought in to ensure the safety of our master." ”

"Do you suspect that I am not good for the prince?" Li Yan'er couldn't cry or laugh.

Pomegranate nodded in disdain: "Possibly." ”

Li Yan'er was helpless, so she took off her essence in front of Pomegranate and Xichun, and changed into coarse cloth clothes brought by Pomegranate. every day

Pomegranate clumps up her clothes and carries them away along with her jewelry.

Xichun took her out of the room and returned to the hall, and ordered, "Qiu Xiang, clean up the table and clean the house." Add charcoal to the princess's house. Then he took out the prince's clothes and washed them. After washing, sprinkle the yard and clean it before going to the kitchen to help with the cooking. I'll give you something to do after noon. ”

Li Yan'er has been pampered since she was a child, where has she done such rough work, but she can't obey the arrangement if she wants to stay. She hesitated for a moment, then reached out to collect the dishes and chopsticks. Xichun watched her into the kitchen.

In the bedroom, Xiao Wenxuan got dressed and was about to go to the yamen, Su Muling tidied up his clothes for him, and brought a cloak to put on him.

Xiao Wenxuan looked at her slightly convex lower abdomen, and said softly: "Why are you so troubled, isn't it in vain to keep her here." ”

Su Muling smiled and put on his cloak and looked at him:

"Leave her behind, and if the prince likes her, I will leave to make way for her. If the prince doesn't like it, he also breaks her thoughts. ”

"I don't like it, I don't like anyone but you."

Xiao Wenxuan listened to Su Muling's words, like an injured beast, and turned around and left with a low roar.

When he arrived in the courtyard, Xiao Wenxuan whispered to the oncoming Wuying: "You stay at home, if Li Yan'er has anything wrong, tie me up." ”

"Yes."

Since Wuying followed Su Muling here, Wuying once again became the best choice for Xiao Wenxuan's side. Leaving him by Su Muling's side, Xiao Wenxuan can rest assured of Su Muling's safety.

In the room, Su Muling was holding embroidery work in his hand, and he was embroidering for a while. Xichun brought Li Yan'er in and instructed her to add charcoal to the charcoal stove.

It was the first time for Li Yan'er to do such menial work, and the house she was busy messing with was full of cigarette ash.

Xichun hurriedly helped Su Muling to the study to hide. And he opened all the windows of the house and let it smoke.

"I can't even do this little thing, and I still want to climb the king? Hmph, dream. ”

Pomegranate walked over with a small quilt and glared at Li Yan'er, who was covering her mouth and coughing.

Pomegranate entered the study and put a small quilt on Su Muling's lap. And he put the charcoal stove on the heat.

"You called Xichun."

Su Muling looked at the gray sky outside the window, afraid that it would snow again.

The pomegranate went out and came back, followed by a dusty Xichun.

"Miss, Qiu Xiang is a stupid person, she can't even add charcoal."

Xichun complained while rubbing his face with a handkerchief.

Su Muling smiled: "Leave her alone." I see that it is cold this day, you go to our house and pick up a few Su embroidery horses to make a few winter clothes for the prince. ”

"The slave maid has thought about it for a long time, but will the prince wear it?"

Xiao Wenxuan has taken off his brocade clothes and is wearing cloth clothes since he came here. The brocade clothes brought from the capital in the cabinet became an ornament.

"The prince's identity is different from the past, and in a few days, the prince will go to Luolai Kingdom to discuss the mutual market, how can he do it without a few clothes."

Su Muling looked at the ventilated old mansions again, and wondered how to get Xiao Wenxuan to agree to move to the mansion she bought.

"I'll ask Chen Sheng to go with me, and let Xichun stay." Pomegranate is not at ease.

They are all gone, in case Li Yan'er has bad thoughts, Su Muling's pregnant body can't bear her Huo Huo.

"Yes, from now on, Miss can't leave anyone."

Xichun and Pomegranate thought together.

When Wei Huai'an left, he left Chen Sheng here. He knew that Su Muling couldn't do without Xichun and pomegranates. He couldn't bear to let Chen Sheng and his wife go. So he simply left Chen Sheng behind and served Su Muling together.

At noon, when Xiao Wenxuan came back, he saw Pomegranate closing the window of his bedroom. Curiously, he asked:

"Why do you still open the window on such a cold day? Not afraid to freeze the young lady? ”

Pomegranate glanced at Li Yan'er, who came out of the house, and replied:

"It's not Akika yet. asked her to add a few pieces of charcoal to the young lady's house, but the room was so smoky that she couldn't stay stunned, so she had to open the window and let it smoke. ”

"Lord Wang."

Li Yan'er saluted Xiao Wenxuan aggrievedly, and raised her eyes to look pitiful.

Xiao Wenxuan didn't even look at her, and was a little displeased: "You too, such a waste thing dares to let her in." What about Ling'er? As he spoke, he passed Li Yan'er and entered the house.

"I'm here."

Su Muling had already heard his voice and called him in the study.

Xiao Wenxuan entered the study and saw Su Muling and Xichun holding one of his old clothes, measuring the size.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing that Su Muling was doing well, Xiao Wenxuan's heart was relieved.

"It's cold, I'm thinking of making you some winter clothes."

"Why are you so hard. There are last year's ones in the cabinet, so you can wear them again this year. ”

Xiao Wenxuan took off his cloak and handed it to Xichun, who greeted him, and walked to the charcoal stove to roast his hands hot, and then came to Su Muling's side.

Su Muling turned around and threw himself into his arms, hugged his waist, and looked at him tenderly with a pair of big eyes:

"You are now the prince, and you are the emperor assigned by the emperor, you go in and out on behalf of our Ming Dynasty, and then you wear those coarse cloth clothes, but you will embarrass the emperor. Besides, I like to see you dressed in brocade, which is worthy of your all-round style. ”

Xiao Wenxuan held her waist with one hand, lifted her small and delicate chin with two fingers with the other, lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, with affection in his eyebrows:

"Okay, listen to you, I'll wear whatever you tell me to wear."

Su Muling knew that this would be the result. She put her hands on his neck and stood on tiptoe to kiss him back on the cheek.

Xiao Wenxuan smiled and hugged her without relaxing.

Xichun, who was guarding the door, pursed his lips and smiled and lifted the curtain.

In the hall, Li Yan'er was taking the clothes that Xiao Wenxuan took off in the morning to wash, and when she lifted the curtain, this scene happened to fall in Li Yan'er's eyes.
