Chapter 156 Do You Like Me?

Chapter 156 Do You Like Me?

Ji Yunqing had no choice but to bite the bullet and finally said, "Your Majesty, are you hungry? I just learned how to grill meat, it's delicious."

By the way, this can be considered as a performance, right?

King Zhao looked at her, said nothing, and turned and left.

Ji Yunqing was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed the others to see the prince off.

King Zhao came and left, and everyone didn't dare to gather again and left one after another.

Ji Yunqing stayed until the end. After everyone left, she sighed: "Hemerocallis"

Xuancao hurried forward: "The servant is here, master, shall we go back too?"

How does this work?

Ji Yunqing waved his hands, his eyes glued to the roasted whole lamb: "We have only eaten half of the roasted whole lamb, what a waste. Ask the chef to slice off the crispy and charred parts on top, and we can take it back and heat it up tomorrow."

The king's concubine insisted on treating the guests to this whole roasted lamb, and it was said to cost three hundred taels of silver, which was very expensive.

Although ordering a dish in the palace is expensive, it is only one or several taels of silver. More than ten taels are considered a very good dish.

Xuancao didn't expect her master to say that. The prince was obviously dissatisfied with her just now. Aren't you sad, master?

Not only was the master not sad, she also filled a lunch box with barbecued meat, pressed it tightly, and forced a lot of barbecued skewers and grilled vegetables into it.

Although the flavor of the barbecue will be reduced by half when you eat it again the next day, it is still worth it!

Who can resist the temptation of free eggs?

It is worth mentioning that this lunch box is really big. A normal person can eat three meals in a row with some left over, but the owner actually filled it up!

After packing up, Ji Yunqing thought happily: "Let's eat together tomorrow. Then we don't need to order any extra dishes, right?"

Hongdou happily agreed: "Master is really smart"

After packing the barbecue, it’s getting late.

However, today the princess specially sent someone to tell them that it was a rare day for everyone to be happy, so it didn't matter if it lasted a little longer, and there was no need to pay respects tomorrow.

I don’t have to get up early tomorrow and I can finally have a good sleep.

Ji Yunqing was very happy when she thought of this. She carried the lantern herself and quickly walked to the Osmanthus Courtyard.

The gate was opened, and the whole yard seemed particularly empty because there was no one there.

Ji Yunqing looked at this place, and his voice became much quieter unconsciously: "The others should be asleep, there is no need to wake them up so late, you should also go wash up and go to bed!"

Xuancao nodded and whispered, "Master, I will help you wash up."

Hongdou also whispered: "Master, I will go see if there is any hot water."

Today, the master has been planting vegetables and playing outside, so he definitely needs a bath.

Xiuqiu followed and said, "Master, I will go and prepare the clothes for you to wear tomorrow." Matters like clothes are usually taken care of by Xiuqiu.

Hong Feng looked around and felt that she should have a job: "Master, I will help you get water for washing your feet."

Ji Yunqing smiled and said, "Okay, you are all very attentive."

She was indeed tired all day. She didn't feel it when she was outside, but now she felt very tired after coming back and wanted to lie down and rest immediately.

"Go see if there's any hot water. If not, boil some. I'll wash up first."

The hot water had been prepared long ago, but it wasn't that hot now. Ji Yunqing made do with it and took a quick shower, then opened the door on the side and returned to his bedroom.

The room was pitch black. With the clear moonlight outside the window, Ji Yunqing saw that there seemed to be a large shadow on her bed.

Ji Yunqing was shocked: "What is this?"

In the room, King Zhao sat in the darkness, silently watching the woman enter, then stepped back in fear.

"Ji, it's the king."

After hearing the voice, Ji Yunqing felt relieved, but then he was surprised: "My Lord, why are you here?"

Unexpectedly, King Zhao asked back in a cold tone: "This palace is my place, can't I come?"

"Of course Your Majesty can come, you can come at any time." Ji Yunqing nodded in agreement as he walked inside.

It’s strange, why didn’t Hemerocallis and the others come over to light the lights when she was taking a shower?

Otherwise she wouldn't have been scared.

Ji Yunqing walked inside under the moonlight from the window, thinking that she had performed the worst today. Could it be that King Zhao was here to call her to account?

She is not guilty of such a crime!

In the darkness, King Zhao's vision was unobstructed. He felt much more comfortable as he watched Ji Yunqing walking towards him obediently.

However, when he thought about how this woman not only smiled at others outside but also had light in her eyes, he became dissatisfied again.

King Zhao asked, "Ji, do you like me?"

Seeing this, Ji Yunqing did not hesitate: "My Lord, please call my name correctly before asking!"

Ji Yunqing was tired of hearing "second wife, second wife" all day long.

King Zhao: “…”

Ji Yunqing walked up to King Zhao and stood still.

"Your Majesty, what you said hurts my heart so much. I have even given birth to a child for you, and you are still questioning my sincerity!

Do you dislike children, or do you dislike me?"

"...I like them all very much."

King Zhao felt that his questions were unnecessary, so he stretched out his arms and embraced the woman in front of him.

Feeling the warmth and softness in his arms, King Zhao relaxed all over. He was the husband of the woman in his arms, and she could only like him. Was there any need to ask?

But for no reason, King Zhao recalled the first time he met Ji Yunqing.

At that time, he was coming back from outside the city and happened to pass by a team of horse-drawn carriages carrying a lot of luggage. It seemed that the luggage was being moved from other places to the capital.

Among them, he immediately saw a beautiful girl with unmarried hair, who was handing snacks to a man dressed as a scholar through the carriage window.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this girl's eyes were completely fixed on that man, and the affection between them was even overflowing.

They are a perfect match.

King Zhao also wanted someone to look at him in that way, so not long after, he brought the girl into his palace as he wished.

Now, King Zhao unconsciously compared the look in his eyes with that in his memory and found that something was wrong no matter how he compared it.

"Ji Yunqing, look up at me"

What's going on with this guy?

Ji Yunqing didn't understand.

She wanted to stand up, but was held tightly by a strong arm. She could not move and could only raise her head in an uncomfortable position.

He asked in a muffled voice, "My Lord, what's wrong with you today?"

Her stomach was really tight, so she put her hand on the strong arm, hoping that he would move a little to let her catch her breath.

When Ji Yunqing raised his head, King Zhao felt even more dissatisfied. This was not the look he had at all.

He didn't care before, thinking that since the other party had entered his house, she should think about him and love him wholeheartedly, but now he is a little uncertain.

"Yun Qing, do you still remember your fiancé?"

"Who?"

Ji Yunqing suddenly became nervous and even wanted to scream. Wasn't it agreed that as long as this matter was not mentioned in the capital, no one would know about it?

what 's wrong?
