Chapter 51: A Strong Sense of Crisis
No one cared about Concubine Li, so she could only silently find a place to sit down.
She watched the prince flirting with Xiao Liangdi, and the sourness in her heart couldn't stop surging up,
She thought she had seen it.
It doesn't matter if the prince summons other women to sleep, anyway, all women have the same status in the prince's heart.
But it wasn't until now, when she saw with her own eyes how the prince and Xiao Liangdi got along, that she suddenly realized that the prince's attitude towards Xiao Liangdi was completely different from his attitude towards other women.
When the prince faced the other concubines, he was always cold, and he didn't even want to say a word.
And now that he is with Xiao Xixi, he will indulge her to make some innocious jokes, tolerate her little willfulness, and even take the initiative to ask her opinion.
This is definitely not a good sign.
Concubine Li felt a strong sense of crisis.
She had even forgotten what her purpose was for this trip, and her mind was now full of how to snatch the prince's attention away from Xiao Liangdi.
She can no longer let the prince and Xiao Liangdi develop.
She had to find a way to stop it!
The palace ladies brought the meals to the table one by one.
Because it is a small kitchen, it is not as particular as the imperial dining room, it is all simple home-cooked food, and most of the ingredients come from the vegetable garden behind the Qingge Palace.
Concubine Li looked at the dishes in front of her, and frowned slightly: "Xiao Liangdi, you will eat these for His Royal Highness the Prince?" ”
Xiao Xi asked puzzledly: "What's wrong with these dishes?" ”
"There is a rule in the palace that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have at least twenty dishes for each lunch, including twelve hot dishes, four cold dishes, two hot soups, and two desserts. If you look at your dishes, they add up to only eight dishes, and there is only one soup, and the others are all hot dishes, where do the cold dishes and desserts go? It is your honor for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to dine with you, how can you snub His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so much? Even if you are pampered and arrogant, you don't do this, you are really too much, there are no rules at all! ”
Concubine Li was very angry, and her eyes were full of condemnation when she looked at Xiao Xixi.
Xiao Xixi didn't care about her, turned her head directly to look at the prince, and sighed in a tone full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Your Highness, can you eat twenty dishes per lunch? What kind of fairy life are you living here? ”
Concubine Li sneered: "Don't think that you can get away with it by changing the topic, you have to explain this lunch to His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
Luo Qinghan said lightly: "If you think the food here is not good, you can leave." ”
Concubine Li's sneer froze on her face.
She immediately turned red and complained aggrievedly: "Your Highness, the concubine body is complaining about you, why do you still talk about the concubine body?" ”
Luo Qinghan: "What is Lonely's freedom to eat, and there is no need for others to dictate you." ”
At this moment, Concubine Li couldn't bear it anymore, and directly shed tears.
She wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief and choked up.
"Your Royal Highness, it's the concubine's mistake, the concubine doesn't mean to point fingers at you, the concubine just cares too much about you, so she will say those words, please don't be angry with the concubine, okay?"
Luo Qinghan looked at her crying and chirping grievances, and then looked at the food in front of her, and the irritability that was finally suppressed came up again.
He just wanted to find a place to eat in purity, why couldn't he even fulfill this wish?
Can't these people settle down?!
He looked at Concubine Li coldly, and his tone was cold.
"Since you think these dishes are too few, then you can eat all these meals for Gu now, and you are not allowed to leave a single bite."
