Chapter 156: The prince likes to raise the bar a little bit today

"Your Highness." Jiang Shishi put down the dishes and chopsticks and came out to salute.

Seeing that the prince was still wearing court clothes, he must have come to her just after returning to the villa.

Pei Xuanling helped the woman, smelled the aroma of food on the tip of his nose, and asked very casually, "What are you eating tonight?" ”

Jiang Shishi: "The concubine and Chunxing made a bowl chicken together. ”

Although Pei Xuanling didn't know what the bowl chicken was, he had eaten at Jiang Meiren's place many times and figured out the situation.

As long as it is not made by Jiang Meiren herself, but made with Chunxing, the taste will not be bad.

Soon, Chunxing poured water.

Jiang Shishi waited for the prince to change out of his court clothes, wipe his face, and clean his hands.

At the beginning, Jiang Shishi was a little embarrassed when she changed the prince's clothes.

Now that I'm used to serving, I don't take it seriously.

The prince is about 1.9 meters tall, and the muscles on his body are not as exaggerated as those of Wufu, nor are they like those weak scholars, the muscle lines are just right, and his body is athletic but not burly.

If it was hot today, the prince came back from outside, sweating profusely, and Jiang Shishi had to wipe his sweat.

The point is that on such a hot day, the prince is still wearing a long-sleeved official uniform.

Although the official uniform in summer is thinner than in winter, the long sleeves here and outside are also hot enough.

Jiang Shishi has recently changed into a light skirt, although she can't wear short sleeves here, but the sleeves are made of tulle, which can also be cooler.

After changing out of his official uniform, the prince changed into a single gown with an ink-colored nasha python pattern, and sat down with Jiang Shishi face to face at the Eight Immortals table.

Pei Xuanling glanced at the dishes on the table, "Didn't you say that you made a bowl chicken?" Why don't you see the chicken? ”

"There's chicken skewers, and chicken feet and wings." Jiang Shishi picked a few strings of sticks and handed them to the prince.

And explained: "Although the name of the dish is called bowl chicken, in addition to chicken, there are many other dishes, and the taste is similar to the spicy soup pot we eat in winter, but the hot pot is hot, and this one is cold." ”

Although the hot pot is delicious, I can't stand eating spicy and hot hot pot in summer.

Bowl chicken is different, it is cold and appetizing to eat.

It was the first time Pei Xuanling had heard such a way of eating.

He only took the chicken from the woman's hand, and he didn't ask for chicken feet and wings.

Looking at the oily chicken skewers in his hands, Pei Xuanling took a bite of the meat, the skin was crispy and the meat was tender, spicy and fragrant.

It's been hot these days, and he doesn't have much appetite and doesn't want to eat hot.

This dish is good, appetizing, and does not sweat from the heat.

Jiang Shishi handed the prince a cup of cold drink, "Your Highness, if you are thirsty, drink this iced sour plum juice." ”

Next, both Jiang Shishi and the crown prince focused on dry rice.

I won't mention Gu Meiren when I eat, and I'll talk to the prince later.

However, she planned to lay the groundwork in advance to let the prince know that she was in a bad mood.

So, when eating, Jiang Shishi looked sullen.

When Pei Xuanling was eating, he looked up and saw that the woman opposite suddenly had a sad face, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

But he didn't ask anything, and continued to eat with his head down.

During this period, Jiang Shishi originally wanted to make a picture of no appetite, but this bowl of chicken and chilled sour plum juice are perfect appetizers.

One accidentally, she ate three bowls of rice.

The prince had a good appetite and also ate three bowls of white rice.

Recently, His Royal Highness has no appetite, and Huang Dechang is still worried, and he doesn't know what to cook in the kitchen.

Fortunately, Jiang Meiren's food here is delicious, which can be regarded as a solution to his problem.

After eating and drinking, the two of them still sweated profusely.

Pei Xuanling asked the servants to prepare water, and Jiang Shishi and the prince bathed in different rooms.

After bathing, the prince reviewed the official documents in Jiang Shishi's inner room.

Jiang Shishi was already a little difficult to speak, seeing that the prince was busy, she didn't want to disturb the prince, and she didn't know how to speak.

Instead, Huang Dechang walked up to Jiang Shishi, "Jiang Meiren, the Seventh Prince handed over last month's account books and profits to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today, and let His Highness transfer them to you." ”

Jiang Shishi took the account book, simply sat lazily on the chaise longue, and began to check the account book.

Huang Dechang also handed her a set of rouge, "By the way, the Seventh Prince also said that this is the first batch of samples he asked people to make, and you can take a look at it." ”

Jiang Shishi moved the account book in her hand, and her eyes fell on the rouge box, "Help me put it on the carved cabinet at the bedside." ”

"Yes." Huang Dechang put the set of rouge away and stood behind the prince to fan.

Jiang Shishi spent more than an hour checking the four account books and confirming that the account books and profits were correct.

As the seventh prince said, this month, the restaurant is on the right track, and the profit distributed to her is more than last month, with nearly 100,000 taels of silver tickets.

After checking the account book, Jiang Shishi glanced at the set of rouge on the carved cabinet at the bedside.

She remembered what the Seventh Prince had said that he would make slight changes to the rouge box.

Jiang Shishi took the rouge box and looked at it, but when she looked at it, she really didn't see any changes to the rouge box.

Presumably the Seventh Prince said that at the time, Jiang Shishi didn't take it seriously, and let Chun Xing receive it on the dresser.

It was already the end of the day, and Jiang Shishi was so sleepy that she yawned.

It just so happened that Pei Xuanling was busy and told Huang Dechang to clean up the bookcase, and he walked to the side of the bed by himself, stretched out his arms, "Settle it." ”

Jiang Shishi got off the chaise longue and stepped forward to wait for the man to change clothes and wash.

During this period, Jiang Shishi continued to maintain a sullen look.

I thought that the prince would notice something, or take the initiative to ask her.

However, when the lights were blown out, and both of them lay down in bed, the prince seemed unaware of her emotions.

Opening her eyes and looking at the top of the bed, Jiang Shishi's voice was muffled: "Your Highness, didn't you see that the concubine was unhappy?" ”

"You're not happy?" Pei Xuanling was lying flat and staring at the top of the bed, "Isn't your appetite very good?" How can you not be happy? ”

"The concubine's appetite has always been very good, and it has nothing to do with her mood."

"Where, when your brother falls off the list, you don't think about tea or food."

"......" The corners of Jiang Shishi's mouth twitched slightly, and she simply turned her back, not wanting to speak.

After a while, a man's low laughter came from behind him, "Don't you want to talk about things, turn around and talk to Gu, where are you unhappy?" ”

As he spoke, the man's palm rested on the woman's back and shook it gently.

Jiang Shishi held back for a night, then turned around and lay on her side to face the prince, "It's Gu Meiren, she has been running to the concubine's courtyard recently, and she has been sitting in me for a day, have you also discovered this?" ”

"Well, I've come to you several times and I've seen her." Pei Xuanling asked in a low voice: "Why, you don't like her to come to your family?" ”

Jiang Shishi: "If Xue Liangdi comes to my visit, I don't feel anything, but Gu Meiren had a holiday with her concubine before, and if two people with incompatible personalities stay together every day, they will not only be embarrassed, but also uncomfortable." ”

Since you can't get along, can't you stay in your own courtyard and escape the heat?

"Since she can't get along with you, why is she still running into your yard?" Pei Xuanling doesn't know women very well.

"It's not because of you." Jiang Shishi pouted and looked at the prince, "Your Highness has been coming here as a concubine every day, and Gu Meiren wants to see you, so she will come here as a concubine." ”

"Listen to what you mean, is it because the lonely came to you diligently?"

"Your Royal Highness is a concubine here, it's too late for the concubine to be happy, how can I complain about you."

But in my heart, I thought, please don't come too often.

Recently, when she went to Chen Province, when the concubines of the East Palace looked at her, they seemed to have knives in their eyes.

"......" How could Pei Xuanling not know about this woman.

On the surface, she was respectful to him, but in fact, she was afraid that getting too close to him would cause her to hate her and affect her comfortable life in the harem.

Jiang Shishi: "Concubines like to be free, but now there are more people in the yard every day, and concubines are really uncomfortable." ”

"According to you, aren't you uncomfortable to be alone with you?"

"......" The prince likes to raise the bar a little bit today, Jiang Shishi: "You are different from Gu Meiren." ”

Pei Xuanling: "What's different." ”

"Gu Meiren and the concubine have no personality, and she is hostile to the concubine, and she is very lenient, in the courtyard of the concubine, she still cares about this and that concubine to eat!"

"You are different, you treat your concubine well, you are kind to your concubine, and you don't care about so many idle things, you can eat as much as your concubine wants."

Pei Xuanling: ......As long as she is allowed to eat casually, she is a good person.

However, the corners of Pei Xuanling's mouth still rose slightly, "Since she makes you uncomfortable, you just have to ask her not to come." ”

"The concubine said, it's useless, she still comes every day."

"......" Thinking that both of them were beauties, Pei Xuanling knew why Gu Meiren didn't take the words of the meat bun as one thing.

Because they have the same position, what they say has no weight.

Jiang Shishi: "Although Gu Meiren doesn't listen to me, she will never dare not listen to you, otherwise, you can help the concubine talk to her, and tell her not to come to me every day, is it okay?" ”

Pei Xuanling said lightly, "I know about this matter." ”

Jiang Shishi has been with the prince for so long, and she also knows something about the prince.

Although the prince did not fully agree, since he said so, it means that he will take the matter seriously and will handle the matter.

Now that everything has been said, Jiang Shishi thanked the prince, resumed lying down, and gradually fell asleep.

Pei Xuanling also closed his eyes and gradually fell asleep.

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was white, and Pei Xuanling woke up.

When I opened my eyes, the deep ink pupils carried the laziness of when I first got up.

Pei Xuanling turned his head to look at the woman next to the pillow, his pupils shook, and the whole person instantly woke up!
