Chapter 424 Depressed
The next day, He Suoyi thought about Shen Huo comforting herself yesterday, but she didn't appreciate it, and she couldn't help but feel a little regretful in her heart. Shen Huo comforted himself, obviously with good intentions, but he was ......
As soon as he thought of this, He Suoyi felt a little uncomfortable. She already vaguely felt that she seemed to have done something wrong, but she couldn't pull her head and take the initiative to show favor to Shen Huo.
Tossing and turning like this until about noon, Zijin, who had been standing beside He Suoyi and watching silently, finally couldn't help it, and couldn't help but say: "Niangniang, if you really want to see His Royal Highness the Prince, then go to see him, it's better than hesitating here."
If the palace maid next to her said this, not only would He Yiyi not hear it in his ears, but he would also reprimand him for being rude. Ke Zijin has been with He Suoyi for a long time, and the relationship between the two has long surpassed the relationship between ordinary master and servant. Therefore, He Suoyi understood from the bottom of his heart that Zijin was doing this for his own good, but he was not angry, but only thought about it in his heart.
After thinking for a while, He Suoyi solemnly looked in Zijin's direction, nodded, and said, "What you say is reasonable." This palace can't just delay because of the entanglement in his heart. This is not good for the palace or for His Royal Highness. ”
Seeing He Suoyi say this, Zijin couldn't help but show a look of relief, and said with a happy smile: "It's naturally great that you can think like this." Presumably, after you meet Your Highness, the two of you will have a good conversation, and those misunderstandings will be dissipated. ”
He Suoyi nodded, and finally showed a few smiles on his originally sad face. Now that he had made up his mind in his heart, He Suoyi no longer hesitated and entangled, and immediately sent someone to invite Shen Huo to dine together.
He Suoyi thought about Shen Huo in his heart, but his face was still pretending to be calm, and he instructed the little eunuch beside him: "If you go to the main hall, you will tell His Highness that the palace wants to invite him to dine together, understand?"
After the little eunuch got He Zhiyi's instructions, he nodded busily, indicating that he naturally understood. Then he hurriedly left the east side hall and walked in the direction of the main hall, not daring to hesitate at all.
After a while, the little eunuch came to the main hall and saw Shen Huo. After seeing Shen Huo, the little eunuch naturally told Shen Huo everything he was instructed by her.
Originally, because after Shen Huo heard it, he would definitely agree without thinking. Unexpectedly, after Shen Huo listened silently, he first groaned slightly, and then said: "The palace is busy with government affairs, so I won't go to the princess today." If you have time another day, it's not too late to go. ”
This does not seem to be a direct refusal, but it still leaves some leeway. But the little eunuch has been in the palace for many years, how can he not understand that this so-called "another day" is most likely no more? Therefore, the little eunuch couldn't help but feel anxious and panicked.
In the past, His Royal Highness has always doted on the crown princess, and he would never say such words. Could it be because of ......
The little eunuch didn't dare to continue to think about it, but he didn't dare to stay in the main hall for a long time, so he could only bow to Shen Huo and say goodbye, and then left the main hall as if he fled, and returned to the east hall to resume his life.
What is going on here, but he said that Chu He has learned the news and is secretly overjoyed.
As the saying goes, "a mother is more expensive than a child". The previous Chu He was just a not very favored prince's concubine, and in this harem that eats people and does not spit out bones, he naturally can't attract any respect and fear from others.
However, since the news spread that Chu He was pregnant with a child, everything has been different. Many people began to be respectful to her, and they would take the initiative to pass on some news to Chu He as a gesture of goodwill. Today's news was sent by someone on his own initiative in order to curry favor with Chu He.
Knowing that He Suoyi took the initiative to invite Shen Huo to go to the east hall for dinner, but Shen Huo categorically refused, Chu He couldn't help but feel a little proud. This was almost impossible to happen in the past, but now it has happened, which is enough to prove the change in Shen Huo's attitude.
Chu He felt that this was not enough. She wanted to be angry, so that He Suoyi could recognize who was the real master of the East Palace now, and deliberately sent someone to invite Shen Huo to dine together.
Naturally, when sending people, Chu He also said it very cleverly. I saw her eyes roll and called Lixin: "Lixin, come here, this palace has something to tell you."
Under Chu He's summons, Li Xin stood beside Chu He respectfully and listened carefully. I only heard Chu He say: "If you go to the main hall, you will say that the palace will invite His Royal Highness to dine together."
Li Xin had an order, and just when he wanted to leave, he heard Chu He say again: "Wait." At that time, after seeing His Royal Highness, he said that the palace was unwell and had no appetite. ”
Li Xin looked over, and saw that Chu He had a graceful demeanor, obviously his body was healthy, why did he say that he was unwell and had no appetite? Li Xin was very puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it because he was thinking about his identity, but he just remembered what Chu He said in his heart, and turned around and walked in the direction of the main hall.
The reason why Chu He said these words naturally had his own reasons. At present, her relationship with Shen Huo is not strong, but she still has the important bargaining chip of children. After telling Li Xin like this, Shen Huo was concerned about the child and naturally went to visit Chu He.
Sure enough, after Shen Huo listened to what Li Xin said, he originally wanted to shirk the past with the same busy government affairs, but suddenly heard Li Xin say again: "Niangniang's body seems to be a little uncomfortable, and she doesn't look like she has much appetite." For breakfast, only a small half bowl of rice soup was used. ”
Hearing this, Shen Huo was just about to say the words that came out of his mouth, but swallowed it back. He thought that Chu He was still pregnant with his own child in his belly right now. If this child has any strengths and weaknesses because of poor care...... Shen Huo didn't dare to think about it anymore.
Now that the official business has been dealt with, Shen Huo has made up his mind in his heart, raised his head and looked in the direction of Li Xin, and said softly: "Since this is the case, the palace will go to the west side hall."
Seeing that Shen Huo agreed to go to have dinner with Chu He, Li Xin naturally couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly led Shen Huo, and the two of them went to the west hall together.
On the west side of the hall, because of Shen Huo's arrival, how to rejoice, naturally there is no need to mention it. But on the other side, the east hall was just a deserted scene.
After the little eunuch brought back Shen Huo's words, He Suoyi didn't care at first, but just nodded habitually. How busy Shen Huo's official affairs are, He Suo has been by his side for a long time, and naturally knows a little bit about it. Therefore, Shen Huo didn't have time to dine with her because he was busy with official business, and although He Suoyi was a little disappointed, he was not too melancholy.
"Since His Royal Highness is busy with official business, the palace will personally cook some meals for him." He Suoyi thought for a moment and then said softly. This decision is made because I really feel sorry for Shen Huolao on official business, and on the other hand, I want to make up for my mistakes yesterday.
Thinking like this in his heart, He Suoyi also hurriedly moved. After having a goal, He Suoyi naturally moved quickly. It didn't take long for the meal to be ready. Although it is not a jade plate to be ashamed, but under He Suyi's intentions, it also makes people's appetites move.
After it was done, He Suoyi personally put the meal on the tray, turned his head and smiled and instructed Zijin: "Zijin, you will accompany the palace to the main hall." His Royal Highness must have been busy with official business and couldn't care about eating, so the palace sent him some. ”
Seeing He Suoyi's initiative to work hard for her relationship with Shen Huo, Zijin was naturally very happy, and immediately accepted it and walked towards the direction of the main hall with He Suoyi.
The two walked slowly, chatting as they went. Zijin saw that He Suoyi was holding the tray by himself, looking a little struggling, and couldn't help but feel a little distressed, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang, you must be tired of holding the tray all the time." Why don't you let the slave and maid take it for you for a while, and then give it to you when you get to the main hall? ”
Zijin originally thought about it very well, but he didn't expect that after He Suoyi heard it, he just shook his head: "No need." This palace took the initiative to send meals to His Royal Highness today, it was out of some heart, how can it be fake to others? It just so happens that Hongu may not have tried the taste of washing hands and making soup for a long time, so let's try it today. ”
Seeing He Suoyi's insistent appearance, Zijin had no choice but to follow He Suoyi closely, ready to step forward to help as soon as He Suoyi felt tired and couldn't hold on.
However, although He Suoyi always looked like he was holding a tray and was a little struggling, he kept holding on and walked towards the main hall.
After a while, the two of them were about to arrive at the entrance of the main hall. At this time, He Suoyi frowned.
I saw that in front of He Suoyi and Zijin, there were a group of palace maids, each holding a tray in their hands, which was full of exquisite food, and they were laughing and talking while heading into the distance.
Several palace maids did not deliberately lower their voices when they spoke, but with what they said, word for word, fell into the ears of He Suoyi and Zijin.
I only heard one person say with some doubts: "What day is this today, why did the mother order us to take so much food?" That's almost a few times as much as her usual lunch. ”
"Then you're lonely." The other person was obviously friendly with her, and replied with a smile, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to Niangniang's place today, and Niangniang naturally had to prepare the best food." ”
"I see." The tone of the person who asked him earlier was mixed with a bit of sudden realization, "It seems that Niangniang is going to be favored." Presumably, we palace maids can also get some blessings. ”
Later, the palace maid said something one after another, but He Suoyi was just in a trance, and he couldn't hear anything clearly. Only Shen Huo refused her invitation, and instead went to Chu He's cognition, which was deeply in He Suoyi's mind.
The tray, which had not let go no matter how tired it was, suddenly fell down with a sound.
