Chapter 884 The Goddess Has a Golden Finger
Shi Li was doing horse stance while counting in her mind.
It is not known whether Concubine Su made this trip on her own initiative or was secretly instructed by Emperor Rong Xiao.
But judging from the current situation, Shi Li felt that it was more likely that Concubine Su wanted to come on her own.
Otherwise, Concubine Su would have rushed over to see Rongyu long ago and would not have been entangled with her here.
Shi Li squatted on her knees for a long time, and finally heard Concubine Su reluctantly call out "Stand up".
This move can only delay this far and cannot be continued.
Shi Li lowered her eyelids and stood up silently.
Well... my calves are a little sore and a little trembling, but still within the tolerable range.
"I was ordered to leave the palace today to visit my relatives. I passed by the palace and wanted to visit Prince Jing. You take me there."
Concubine Su said in a commanding tone.
"His Highness is bathing and changing clothes. Please sit down and wait for a moment, Your Majesty." Shi Li threw out the reason she had thought of in advance.
She just couldn't believe that the imperial concubine could be so crazy as to insist on seeing Rongyu just after hearing that she was taking a bath.
As expected, Concubine Su did not urge him, but her pretty face sank. It was unknown what she was thinking of, but she glared at Shi Li fiercely, her eyes as sharp as a knife.
"Bathing? King Jing is bathing at this time?"
It’s more like doubt than disbelief.
"Your Highness, you may not know that Your Highness has been feeling unwell these days and has not been able to bathe for many days. It is such a pity that he finally feels better today."
Shi Li lied with open eyes.
Having said that, Concubine Su could no longer question it. She sat down again with a cold face, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
After taking a sip, he slammed the cup on the table.
"The tea is cold and bitter. This is how you respect me!"
Shi Li: ...
[I can see the teacup is steaming, this lady did this on purpose!!!]
[She is just jealous that the anchor can stay with Rongyu! ]
[Women’s jealousy is terrible...]
Shi Li was not happy with her behavior, so she pretended to be terrified and stood up to apologize. The more Concubine Su argued with her, the more time she could delay.
"Go and make me another pot of tea. Don't be perfunctory!" Concubine Su just wanted to make trouble for Shi Li. She raised her fingers painted with bright red nail polish and gave the order without any room for argument.
"……Yes."
In order to avoid Concubine Su's suspicion, Shi Li used all her acting skills, pretending to be aggrieved, and walked out with her lips pursed.
In fact, my heart was already blossoming with joy.
While she goes to make tea, Concubine Su has to wait here. This back and forth takes up a lot of time. It's really great!
[I am convinced by the host’s mentality~]
[I am convinced, this is probably why she can be a host! ]
[Gou Jian could sleep on firewood and taste gall, Han Xin could endure the humiliation of being kicked in the crotch, so what's wrong with the host making a pot of tea? I believe the host will be convinced later! ]
Shi Li walked out of the hall and walked briskly towards the tea room.
As soon as he entered the tea room, Rong Xing followed in.
When he saw Shi Lizhen fetching water and making tea by herself, he couldn't help but frowning angrily.
However, after studying with the teacher specially hired by Rongyu recently, he was much calmer than before. He did not say anything, but walked over and took the kettle of boiling water.
"Leave it alone, girl. Let me do it."
Since there were no outsiders present, Shi Li didn't insist on making tea by herself.
Tea brewed by anyone is still tea. She didn’t believe that Concubine Su could taste a different flavor. She was relieved and handed the teapot to Rong Xing.
The young man seemed to be very proficient in this. His movements were smooth and he quickly brewed a pot of new tea and handed it to Shi Li in silence.
"You soak it too quickly. I'll send it over later." Shi Li shook her head, thinking that Rong Xing was still too straightforward.
Rong Xing: ...
After waiting for a while, Shi Li felt that the time was about right.
If she waited any longer, Concubine Su's patience would probably run out, so she picked up the teapot and walked back with an aggrieved look on her face.
But Concubine Su's harassment was not over yet. Seeing Shi Li bringing back the tea, she asked her to pour tea for her.
Shi Li did the same and poured the tea and served it with both hands.
When Concubine Su took the teacup, she deliberately let go of it.
With a clinking sound, the teacup fell to the ground.
The hot tea splashed everywhere.
