Chapter 433
Seeing that King Zhao had no objection, Ji Yunqing understood.
Instead of handing the fruit plate over directly, she sat on a chair nearby, took a piece of watermelon herself, and handed it to King Zhao's lips.
"Your Majesty, please try it."
King Zhao opened his mouth slightly and the piece of watermelon was stuffed in.
After eating three pieces in a row, King Zhao waved his hand and said, "No more."
You won’t eat it now?
Ji Yunqing smacked his lips and looked at King Zhao hesitantly.
King Zhao thought she was just greedy. He would never let her suffer any loss, not to mention that these crops were originally grown by Ji.
He said: "Eat if you want."
Ji Yunqing was stunned. That was not what she meant.
But since King Zhao doesn't want to eat anymore, it's okay for her to have a couple of bites.
"it is good"
Ji Yunqing picked a piece of melon for himself, and his mouth was immediately filled with the refreshing sweetness, which made Ji Yunqing eat a few more pieces.
Seeing that King Zhao still looked unhappy, Ji Yunqing ate several pieces of fruit silently and did not dare to speak the profound principles he had prepared.
In fact, she wanted to say "Sharing is a virtue", but she was not sure whether King Zhao would be moved.
But now it seems, forget it.
After eating the fruit, Ji Yunqing was still very attentive.
She was determined to calm King Zhao down, and kept circling around him.
When eating, he personally set the table for the meal and thoughtfully picked up some food for King Zhao.
Before, there had always been someone around King Zhao who was responsible for preparing meals for him, but Ji Yunqing advocated self-reliance and could get whatever he wanted to eat by himself.
Ji Yunqing was particularly proactive today.
First, he used clean chopsticks to pick up a lion's head covered with rich sauce for King Zhao, then a piece of garlic-flavored spareribs, a piece of duck meat, and a piece of sweet and sour fish.
Seeing that Prince Zhao was slow to pick up his chopsticks and the surprised look of the maid who was busy serving the dishes, Ji Yunqing wondered if there were any missing vegetarian dishes.
Meat and vegetables taste good together, so she considerately picked up a few slices of bamboo shoots, some green vegetables, and also specially presented a bowl of soup.
"My Lord, eat quickly, what else do you like?"
Ji Yunqing kept looking at the food on the table, as if he wasn't going to eat more.
Her eyes were full of positivity, "Be more attentive to others and they will feel calmer", but King Zhao sensed something different.
Could it be that Ji could be so... clingy?
Only after a real comparison did he realize how perfunctory Ji had been to him in the past!
Although there is no previous memory of Ji Shi, it is not difficult to find from the few visits that King Zhao has made recently that Ji Shi is not so considerate.
He thought Ji didn't understand these things, but it turned out that they were all lying to him.
You are so good, Ji!
What an ungrateful person! King Zhao felt a nameless anger in his heart.
With this thought in mind, I looked again and saw flaws everywhere.
The woman in front of him was dressed beautifully today, looking radiant and radiant, even her clothes were newly made. Why didn't he receive such treatment when he came here before?
There were also fruits. If he hadn't discovered them by chance today, he wouldn't have known that Ji was so fond of enjoying himself. He got a lot of good things for himself, but in the end, not a single one was given to him!
Let’s not talk about anything else, just the watermelon. If that little brat hadn’t invited him, he wouldn’t have known that there was such a thing in Ji’s yard.
Seeing that the look in King Zhao's eyes not only did not relax, but became increasingly tense, she felt as if he was about to kill her with a knife.
Ji Yunqing: “…”
Why do I become more unfortunate the harder I work?
She said timidly: "My Lord?"
"What's the matter?"
As soon as King Zhao opened his mouth, his tone dropped eight hundred degrees colder, and the whole room seemed to be in the icy and snowy Antarctic.
Ji Yunqing thought to himself, man, you are playing with ice!
Facing such cold stares, Ji Yunqing thought for two seconds.
Then he took decisive action and swapped his clean bowl, which he had not yet used, with King Zhao's full bowl.
After changing, Ji Yunqing said stubbornly: "My Lord, since you don't want to eat it, why not give it to me to avoid wasting it"
Even if you want to kill her, you should at least give her a final meal, right?
With this thought in mind, Ji Yunqing held the bowl and ate with great concentration.
King Zhao's anger was interrupted for a second by this action. He looked at Ji Yunqing eating with the bowl that originally belonged to him, his eyes fixed.
He remembered...he just took a bite of the food in the bowl, right?
Ji Yunqing didn't mind. The man used clean chopsticks to take the first bite of the vegetable. He only took one bite and didn't take a second bite.
What’s the difference between this and taking a bite with clean chopsticks?
Ji Yunqing ate very seriously, and by the time she was satisfied, King Zhao had already put down his chopsticks.
Although according to the rules, she had to put down her chopsticks when King Zhao stopped eating, but Ji Yunqing simply couldn't bear to finish her meal halfway.
Just ask who can put down the half-eaten ribs in their hands?
Who can resist eating the delicious sweet and sour fish in front of them?
Ji Yunqing took some effort and finally got King Zhao to ignore this rule.
After eating and drinking, Ji Yunqing felt much better.
She finally remembered what was missing: "Why is Ruirui not here?"
It’s already dinner time and you haven’t come back yet?
King Zhao looked at her and raised his voice: "You still remember the child? I thought you only remembered that woman."
Look at what he said, which woman?
I have a name, I am Concubine Li.
Ji Yunqing scratched his head innocently: "As soon as I saw the prince, I forgot everything"
"Stop being so glib!"
If King Zhao finds new strong evidence again, this woman will say sweet words to deceive him.
In fact, there is no truth at all.
Fortunately, he only regarded this woman as a tool to reproduce offspring.
Other than that, there's no interest in her at all.
Thinking of this, King Zhao angrily thought of the woman whose mouth was wiped by Ji Yunqing.
"You go take a shower"
"Wash it three times, no, ten times!"
Be sure to wash off all the smell of that woman.
Ji Yunqing was dumbfounded after hearing this. Wouldn’t she have to wash her skin ten times?
"My Lord, please come with me."
Ji Yunqing invited him warmly. If she washed ten times, this person would also have to wash ten times.
King Zhao originally didn't want to go, but for some reason he came up with it and went along.
……
I don’t know if the two of them washed ten times, but the next morning when Ji Yunqing woke up, he felt like he had lost all desire to live as soon as he opened his eyes.
My whole body aches and aches, and only my fingers can move slightly.
Ji Yunqing felt dizzy when she thought of what King Zhao said in her ear with a stern face at night.
King Zhao said that next time she came to Guihuayuan, she had to be as warm and clingy as she was yesterday, and she had to throw away her tattered clothes and dress elegantly whenever she saw him.
Ji Yunqing: “…”
What tattered clothes?
Do you know how hard it is to dress up?
Especially when you are not going out, if you want to lie down on the bed, you have to remove your makeup first, otherwise the powder on your face will get all over the bed.
And is it my fault that you don't say hello in advance every time you come over?
No matter how he complained in his heart, Ji Yunqing did not object.
Smart people know that they shouldn't add fuel to the fire. The worst that can happen is that they can just behave well for a while afterwards.
Besides, Prince Zhao has been very concerned about Concubine Liu recently and has not been able to come to her place very often.
After Ji Yunqing thought it through, he finally felt relieved.
Sure enough, in the next few days, Ji Yunqing didn't see a single hair of King Zhao, and she lived her life comfortably.
But... there is a sequelae.
Although the incident that day was suppressed, many people saw King Zhao with a gloomy face wanting to kill the New Year pig and carrying her away.
No need to ask, there will definitely be new rumors in the mansion.
Ji Yunqing lay slowly on the swing, opened his eyes and looked at the blue sky and white clouds.
At this time, a sound of footsteps was heard: "Ji Shufei is hiding here in peace and quiet, what a leisurely life!"
Ji Yunqing sat up and looked over in surprise: "Concubine Liu? Are you feeling better?"
Originally, King Zhao wanted her to visit Concubine Liu more often, but after that day, King Zhao strictly forbade her to visit Concubine Liu or anyone else in the palace.
Alas, where is the most basic trust between people?
Therefore, when she suddenly saw Concubine Liu, she felt quite surprised.
"Long time no see, Concubine Liu looks even more radiant now!"
It was just an ordinary compliment, but Concubine Liu took two steps back warily.
"You, don't come here!"
Ji Yunqing looked at her in confusion: "..."
Then he stood up and took two steps forward silently.
Just come over here, just come over here.
This time, not only Concubine Liu, but the others also retreated one after another.
Ji Yunqing suddenly became playful: "What are you doing? Oh my, I can't even see your face clearly, Concubine."
She took two steps forward.
"Huh? Why are you walking back again? Come here so I can take a closer look."
Continue walking two steps forward.
"Don't retreat anymore, haha, Concubine Liu, you are really beautiful, especially the clothes you are wearing today, it suits you very well, it looks really good, really"
Ji Yunqing spoke very sincerely, and the maidservants around Concubine Liu also felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Just when Ji Yunqing was about to continue and see where this group of people would retreat to, another voice stopped Ji Yunqing's bad behavior.
"Yun Qing!"
Ji Yunqing stopped and looked at the person who came.
"Concubine Wen?"
Her eyes lit up instantly, and she trotted over quickly: "Sister Wen, you're finally back!"
Concubine Wen was not at home a few days ago. She went to her parents' home to serve Madam Wen and just came back today.
"Sister Wen, why didn't you tell me you were coming back? I could have gone to greet you!"
Concubine Wen glanced at the group of people and said, "What are you going to greet? Isn't this ruining your fun?"
"If I hadn't just happened to come back, I wouldn't have known you were having so much fun. Is Concubine Liu pretty?"
Ji Yunqing came closer affectionately: "No matter how pretty you are, can you be as pretty as you, Sister Wen? You are the prettiest one."
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's not talk about other people. I want to hear about you."
She quickly changed the subject: "Sister Wen, you are back. How is Madam now? Is she feeling better?"
Speaking of her mother, Concubine Wen frowned and said, "Much better."
In fact, her mother's illness was not serious. It was just that she had no children for a long time. Her mother was anxious, so she kept her daughter to take medicine for a period of time and asked the doctor to regulate her body.
Concubine Wen stayed there for many days, and only came back when her body was almost recovered.
I just don’t know if I can give birth to my cousin’s child this time.
Concubine Wen was distracted. If she still couldn't give birth to a child, she was getting older. What should she do in the future?
