Chapter 40: The Maid
"Didn't you say I smelled bad?" Yan Lingyue glared at Zhou Ziyu and said.
"It's not bad, it's not bad at all," Zhou Ziyu grinned, hugging Yan Lingyue's waist and not letting go.
Thinking of the picture of him stepping forward and blocking the arrow for her, Yan Lingyue snorted lightly and did not insist on leaving again.
Zhou Ziyu pulled her to the edge of the bed again and sat down, "Yue, Yue'er drink, are you hungry?" When the words fell, he shouted to the outside world, "Come on, prepare a meal." ”
In the past two days in the cave, Yan Lingyue really didn't eat well, but now after Zhou Ziyu mentioned this, her stomach couldn't help but scream.
Zhou Ziyu smiled, "Yue'er is really hungry." He also stretched out his hand to touch Yan Lingyue's belly.
Yan Lingyue dodged on one side of her body, "Watch out for your arms." ”
"Ziyu is paying attention," Zhou Ziyu shook his uninjured arm and said with a smile, "Youyue'er cares about Ziyu, and Ziyu doesn't hurt at all." ”
Concerned about him? She doesn't want him to touch her more, okay?! Yan Lingyue's face was full of black lines. Especially smelling my own body, it is even more uncomfortable. I just want to go back to Tingyu Pavilion as soon as possible and clean it from head to toe.
"Then let's talk about it, I'll go back to Yanfu after eating later," In order to prevent Zhou Ziyu from letting her leave, Yan Lingyue took the first step to discuss.
Sure enough, the next moment, Zhou Ziyu pouted, "But I can't bear Yue'er." ”
Yan Lingyue sighed in her heart, "In a few days, we will get married." When the time comes, I will move into Ming Hanxuan, and I can stay with the Nine Emperor Princes every day, but I am afraid that the Nine Emperor Princes will be bored with me at that time. ”
"No, not bored." Zhou Ziyu said, "But, but I'm worried that Yue'er is in danger, what if Yue'er is arrested again along the way?" ”
Yan Lingyue pressed her eyebrows, and said with a headache, "Otherwise, the Nine Emperor Princes will send a few masters to escort me back to the house?" ”
She originally just said it casually, but she never thought that Zhou Ziyu would take it seriously, and immediately called the guards. The corners of Yan Lingyue's mouth twitched, but she didn't refuse, after all, the assassin hadn't been caught yet, and she still regretted her life.
While talking, Zhang Yu came over with food. To Yan Lingyue's surprise, Zhang Yu was still followed by a palace maid, also carrying a meal.
As far as Yan Lingyue knew, in addition to the two palace maids in the backyard in Ming Hanxuan, Zhou Ziyu's side did not allow the palace maids to serve closely. But she hasn't been here for a long time, and there is an extra palace maid by Zhou Ziyu's side, and she can also enter and leave Zhou Ziyu's room.
Yan Lingyue's brows furrowed.
Seeing this, Zhang Yu immediately beckoned to the palace maid and said, "Xiuchuan, don't hurry up and salute the fifth lady." ”
After Xiuchuan laid out the meal, he quickly walked up to Yan Lingyue, "Slave Xiuchuan has seen Fifth Miss. ”
Yan Lingyue raised her eyebrows, "Xiuchuan? That's a good name. Seeing that Xiuchuan followed Zhang Yu to retreat, Yan Lingyue looked at Zhou Ziyu, "When there was one more person in front of the Nine Emperor Princes, Yue'er didn't know." ”
"Ziyu hates Xiuchuan," Zhou Ziyu said with an unhappy face, "She, she sneaked into my room at night, wanted to get into my bed, and wanted to take off my clothes." Zi and Ziyu didn't like her and wanted her to leave, but the queen mother didn't agree, so she had to let her live in Ming Hanxuan, and asked her to teach me how to sleep with Yue'er. ”
Zhou Ziyu was puzzled, "Ziyu can sleep, no need to teach." Ziyu doesn't like Xiuchuan......"
Hearing this, Yan Lingyue didn't understand. Affection Xiuchuan is a maid sent by Queen Xiao to teach Zhou Ziyu about sexual affairs.
The children of wealthy families, generally at the age of fourteen or fifteen, will have a maid to teach them to have sex. Zhou Ziyu, as a prince, is no exception. In fact, according to common sense, with Zhou Ziyu's age, it is too late to arrange a room now. So there is nothing wrong with Queen Xiao's move. But as long as Yan Lingyue thought that Zhou Ziyu might have had intimate contact with other women, she felt uncomfortable.
"Did she go to your bed? Have you taken off your clothes too? Yan Lingyue asked with a dark face.
Zhou Ziyu hurriedly waved his hand to deny, "No, no, before she got close to the bed, Ziyu pushed her down." The dirty clothes she touched, Ziyu had already let Zhang Yu burn it. ”
Yan Lingyue glanced at Zhou Ziyu, strode to the round table, picked up the elbow on the table and began to gobble it up.
Zhou Ziyu was worried that Yan Lingyue would be angry, so she lifted the quilt and got out of bed, following behind her, "Eat slowly, slowly, Yue'er." He was busy helping Yan Lingyue serve the soup, but he accidentally pulled the wound, his hand shook, and the soup spilled again, splashing himself.
Seeing Zhou Ziyu grinning as she was burned, Yan Lingyue panicked, "Does it matter?" ”
When Yan Lingyue picked up the silk handkerchief to help Zhou Ziyu clean up his clothes, she called Zhang Yu, but unexpectedly, Xiuchuan actually entered the room first.
"Seriously? Nine Emperor Princes, do you want to call the imperial doctor? Xiuchuan looked at Zhou Ziyu nervously, looking like he wanted to get close but was afraid of Yan Lingyue, as if he had been bullied.
Yan Lingyue, who was already a little unhappy, lost her temper in an instant, threw the silk handkerchief on the table, and sat back on the stool.
"Yue, Yue'er?" Zhou Ziyu wanted to take this opportunity to coax Yan Lingyue, but now he was messed up by Xiuchuan. Zhou Ziyu was unhappy, pouting and glaring at Xiuchuan.
Xiuchuan, who was disgusted, did not give up, turned around and asked Zhang Yu, who came in later, "Do you want to go to the Tai Hospital to get some scald cream, the Nine Emperor Princes are burned." ”
Zhang Yu is clever. Now as the earth is big today, Yan Lingyue is the largest. As soon as he entered the door, he first looked at Zhou Ziyu, and after making sure that his master was fine, he immediately came to Yan Lingyue's side, "Miss Fifth is fine, right?" "As long as Yan Lingyue is happy, there will be no problem with their Nine Emperor Princes.
"What can I do," Yan Lingyue, who calmed down, filled herself a bowl of soup, patted the stool beside her, and said to Zhou Ziyu, "Do you need to see a doctor?" If you don't need it, just sit down and eat with me. ”
"Eat, eat," Zhou Ziyu immediately sat down obediently beside Yan Lingyue.
"Then the slave maid will give the Nine Emperor Princes a dish," Xiuchuan came to Zhou Ziyu again, picked up the soup spoon and went to help Zhou Ziyu serve the soup, "I heard the queen say that the Nine Emperor Princes like to drink winter melon pork rib soup the most." ”
If Xiuchuan was an ordinary palace maid, it would be fine, but she was the maid arranged by the queen's mother to Zhou Ziyu. If Zhou Ziyu touched her, then after Yan Lingyue and Zhou Ziyu got married, Xiuchuan would be promoted to be a concubine.
Seeing Xiuchuan busy with Zhou Ziyu, Yan Lingyue lost her appetite like eating a fly.
Looking at Zhou Ziyu again, although her face was full of impatience, she didn't open her mouth to reprimand Xiuchuan, obviously used to her wandering around. Thinking of this, Yan Lingyue didn't feel good in her heart.
Although she knew that it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, because the king of Beiyan had only married the queen of Beiyan at the beginning, Yan Lingyue had been in love with each other since she was a child, and she also hoped that she and her future husband would be able to love each other like her father and mother.
Even if her future husband is a fool, even if she didn't marry Zhou Ziyu because of her feelings, Yan Lingyue still doesn't want other women to share Zhou Ziyu with her. In fact, as early as when she decided to marry Zhou Ziyu, she was mentally prepared to accept all kinds of results, but when it was really time, Yan Lingyue found that she still cared.
She knew she was selfish with this idea, and she knew she shouldn't be!
Yan Lingyue took a deep breath and kept telling herself in her heart that she only married Zhou Ziyu for revenge, she was just using Zhou Ziyu, and she couldn't have other thoughts about a fool. Otherwise, she will only be bound in the future.
Yan Lingyue's silence was seen by Zhou Ziyu and Zhang Yu.
Zhou Ziyu carefully sandwiched two slices of beef for Yan Lingyue, "Yue, Yue'er eat." ”
Zhang Yu glanced at Xiuchuan twice and motioned for her to retreat.
However, Xiuchuan saw the future housewife for the first time, and he was bent on showing off in front of Yan Lingyue, but he didn't understand Zhang Yu's prompt at all. also remained motionless by Zhou Ziyu's side.
Zhou Ziyu is patient with Yan Lingyue, it does not mean that he is patient with others, otherwise there would be no rumors that the Nine Emperor Princes are moody. Especially Xiuchuan was so blind, Zhou Ziyu couldn't help but explode, "Can you not be like a butterfly, scurrying around?" ”
Xiuchuan, who was reprimanded, first trembled, and then quietly retreated.
In the month of Ming Hanxuan, Xiuchuan also figured out Zhou Ziyu's temperament. When she was disgusted and pushed away by Zhou Ziyu at the beginning, she was still very sad, and even cried for most of the night, worried that Zhou Ziyu would send her away. Of course, Zhou Ziyu did plan to send her away, but unfortunately she was stopped by Queen Xiao in the end. In addition to Yan Lingyue, what Zhou Ziyu cares about most is Queen Xiao. Queen Xiao insisted again and again, but because of the face of her mother, Zhou Ziyu could only compromise. Although Xiuchuan was left, he didn't let her get close, just treated her as an ordinary palace maid.
Zhou Ziyu's indifference, as well as his concern for Yan Lingyue, also made Xiuchuan gradually see it. But later she found out that as long as she didn't do too much in Ming Hanxuan, Zhou Ziyu basically wouldn't say anything. In addition, in recent times, Yan Lingyue has not entered the palace much because of embroidered wedding dresses, and Xiuchuan thinks that she has the queen behind her, and after a long time, she has become bold again, and she has begun to think about the Nine Emperor Princes again, so there will be today's play.
However, Xiuchuan also knew that as long as she was honest and obedient, Zhou Ziyu would not punish her because of Queen Xiao, so she immediately retreated obediently.
But even so, Yan Lingyue still had no appetite.
"The Nine Emperor Princes eat slowly, and Yue'er will go back to the house first," Yan Lingyue wiped her mouth and stood up.
Because he had already said before, after eating, he let Yan Lingyue go home. Now that Yan Lingyue is leaving, Zhou Ziyu can't stop it anymore. What's more, Yan Lingyue was imprisoned for two days, and she really needed to go back and rest well.
