Chapter 248: Self-inflicted affection
Lu Xiyi pursed his thin lips tightly, glared at him angrily, and said, "Then why are you telling me the truth again now?" Since you don't want to be Ah Leng anymore, I won't force you, isn't it good for you to continue to be your prince again, and be at ease? ”
Qi Yan's face is thin and handsome, and his charming peach blossom eyes are like a sharp weapon that can take people's lives, and Lu Xiyi will fall again whenever he sees his eyes, but he still can't accept it, Qi Yan actually chose Lu Ruoling as his concubine.
And Qi Yan investigated some news behind his back, Zhong Yi Hanyin's every move is enough to prove that what Lu Xiyi said should be him, and now that he is wearing a mask, there are naturally things that he dare not show easily, so he will return to her side again instead of him.
Qi Yan had a faint trace of melancholy between his eyebrows, stared at her and said: "I know you must have hatred in your heart, but you must be considerate of me, as the crown prince, many forces are contained, I don't want you to become a thorn in the side, which will only bring you infinite harm." ”
"But what about Lu Ruoling's matter?" Lu Xiyi's eyes were a little depressed, and his delicate porcelain white face became jerky, and his green jade fingers kept rubbing his palms.
"Would you believe me if I told you that she climbed into my bed using a trick?" Lu Xiyi was speechless for a moment, no matter what he said, but Lu Ruoling was still by his side, and the relationship between them could never go back.
"But don't worry, if you enter the East Palace, your status in the mansion is higher than hers, and you won't be wronged at all, I'll give you whatever you want, how about it?" Qi Yan stared at her with a serious face and said, the gentleness and longing in his eyes seemed to be about to overflow the corners of his eyebrows.
"Do you also want to be your concubine when you enter the East Palace? So what's the difference between me and Lu Ruoling? Lu Xiyi chuckled silently and stared at him with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Qi Yan stretched out the folding fan in his hand, and said calmly with a chic face: "I like you, to put it bluntly, I just want you to stay by my side, if you feel that you can't serve me with other women, I will compensate you in other ways, but as long as you are my Qi Yan's woman, I will definitely not let you suffer half of the grievances." ”
"Enough is enough, Your Royal Highness the Prince, what are you doing with me? I, Lu Xiyi, am not an item that I can get if I want it, and I'm not interested in being the woman next to the prince at all, do you know what I want? Lu Xiyi's sharp words choked him speechless.
"Then what do you want, glory, wealth, fine clothes and food, isn't that what you women want to pursue?" A sneering smile appeared at the corner of Lu Xiyi's mouth, his eyes stared at him deeply, and said: "You are wrong, glory and wealth, I have it now, but what I want is a man's sincerity." ”
"It's not easy to do, I naturally have sincerity, I can put my heart with you wholeheartedly, as long as you return the same."
Qi Yan seemed to be determined to win him, and he also believed that Lu Xiyi would fall into his fishing net one day, but he seemed to be thinking a little simpler.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you just asked me to have tea today, why do I think you seem to have drunk a lot of wine?"
Qi Yan couldn't hear her words, with a sense of ridicule, but looked at her with a deep face and said: "I really want you to stay by my side, as long as you become my concubine, I can push your reputation of Xiaoyao Restaurant even bigger, and you can see the words Xiaoyao Restaurant all over the world, it is also a good deal for you, isn't it?" ”
Seeing that the more he talked, the more crazy he became, Lu Xiyi felt a little powerless, could it be that Ah Leng in her heart had always thought of her like this, why did she feel that these two people were very different.
Lu Xiyi hung his head tiredly and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you don't know me, maybe Lu Ruoling is indeed willing to be your concubine because she loves your glory and wealth, but if it were me, I would never grovel to stay by a man's side." ”
"Where is groveling? Do you know how many women in the capital line up to enter the East Palace? I beg you to come in, I beg you to come in. ”
"No need, His Royal Highness the Prince, I will forget all the things in the past, maybe we are really not all the way, and you won't understand what I said, I paid for today's tea, in the future, we are just partners in the business, and other things, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not mention it again, so as not to hurt the harmony."
As soon as the words fell, he threw a few copper plates on the table and got off the Pinmingxuan.
Qi Yan looked at her graceful figure from the fence and slowly disappeared in front of him, and pounded the table with hatred, when did he lose to a woman, this is really incredible!
Xiao Liu sneakily stepped forward and hesitated: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, Shopkeeper Lu didn't seem to be happy and left just now, did you misunderstand something?" Qi Yan glared at him angrily and said, "Shut up your stinky mouth for me!" ”
"Yes."
Lu Xiyi returned to the restaurant, Xiaoxue hurriedly pulled her to the backyard, and said in a low voice: "Oh no, the shopkeeper, the secret recipe for health wine has been stolen." When Lu Xiyi heard this, he was shocked and said, "How is it possible? Haven't you been locked up by me all the time? How could it be stolen? ”
"Shopkeeper, I'll just say that Lu Mingde is wrong, maybe his dementia is all pretended, and he came over for the secret recipe of health wine."
"How so? But I asked the doctor, and he was really mentally hit to be like that, so he shouldn't have gone to great lengths to steal a secret recipe for health wine. ”
Xiaoxue took a deep breath, her eyebrows were about to turn into caterpillars, she lowered her voice, and said with a solemn expression: "This is not necessarily, Lu Mingde still has her baby daughter in his heart, and the ant wine shop opposite has always been jealous of our business, maybe this Lu Mingde was sent by Lu Ruoling to steal the secret recipe, the shopkeeper, we are careless." ”
"Is that really the case?" Lu Xiyi couldn't believe it for a long time, and listening to Xiaoxue's description of adding oil and vinegar, he couldn't help but believe it, at this time, Xiao Er stepped forward and said, "Shopkeeper, that fool is here again!" Knowing that the fool Xiao Er said was Lu Mingde, Lu Xiyi clenched his fists, and there was a cold air in his eyes.
"Shopkeeper, you go and question him, if he doesn't tell the truth, pull him to the treasury and find someone to beat him up, and he will be honest." Xiaoxue had a bad idea on the side, Lu Xiyi didn't have the heart to listen to her offer on the side, but walked straight to Lu Mingde and stretched out his hand.
Lu Mingde thought she was asking for something, so he put the steamed buns he picked up today into his hands.
"That's not what I want, I'll honestly hand over the secret recipe." Lu Xiyi waved her hand, and Lu Mingde honestly put a few more copper plates on her hand, and shrunk her fingers with an aggrieved face, looking like a giant baby.
