This could be considered as a careful machine, as Zhou Xu had worked hard to be the middleman for this bridge.
Fortunately, Zhou Xu did not know about it. Otherwise, if she really had to accomplish this, she would most likely have to go personally.
But the Zhong Miao Yi did not want to take the initiative to see Su Zeyi. Everything about Su Zeyi, to her, was already a poison that she wanted to avoid but could not avoid.
This feeling was extremely difficult to bear. Zhou Xu was unable to experience it, and she also did not have the chance to.
After Zhou Xu left, Zhong Miao Yi went back to rest. She calculated the time, casually flipping through the book in her hand, all of these things were found by Ah Jiu, the beggars have been going out constantly these days, and they were not peaceful at all, so Zhong Miao Yi could not be bothered with them.
Time slowly passed by. Every time he waited for something, he would feel like time was passing by extremely slowly.
The book in Zhong Miao Yi's hands flipped through half, but there was still no movement from outside.
Ah Jiu brought in the lotus seed soup and said with a smile that it was made just now. It was sweet and tasty, allowing her to taste it.
Zhong Miao Yi did not want to ignore Ah Jiu's good intentions. These days, although she did not have the thought of living a life lightly, her half-dead state was really uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Shun Chang was a patient person, or perhaps Su Zeyi had specifically instructed him to do so, as the three young eunuchs in the courtyard did not make things too difficult for them.
Seeing that Zhong Miao Yi was willing to eat, and his face was no longer stiff, Ah Jiu was happy in her heart, but his face did not show any sign of emotion. She was afraid that if she tried to breathe a little more, everything in front of him would become an illusion.
"It's a little sweet." Zhong Miao Yi only spoke out after eating half a bowl. She didn't actually like to eat sweet things, but the things inside the palace were mostly sweet.
Zhong Miao Yi didn't understand it before, but now she understood, but she still didn't like it.
Ah Jiu took the bowl from her hands and slightly raised his brows: "Does your benefactor still think that it's too sweet? Your servant has told them to put less sugar in, or not. Give it to me to make another bowl? "
Zhong Miao Yi laughed. Just as she was about to say that there was no need to go through all that trouble, she saw Shun Chang running in frantically from the outside.
"What is this? Being flustered and flustered, are you not afraid of bumping into the master? " Although the Ah Jiu berated him softly, there was no impatience in his tone.
It seemed that they got along quite well in private.
Shun Chang slowed his breathing and said, "Your Majesty. The Emperor has already reached the intersection ahead and is about to enter our Biqing Palace.
Zhong Miao Yi didn't have much of a reaction. Su Zeyi coming here was expected, Zhong Miao Yi only knew that he would come, but she didn't think that it would be for so long.
But it didn't matter, as long as he was here.
It was probably because Su Zeyi had not been here for a long time, that Shun Chang was truly a little excited for her. Even the Ah Jiu was smiling in joy and couldn't hide his smile.
Zhong Miao Yi rubbed her face to make herself look more gentle, not as stiff as before.
When Su Zeyi walked into the Chang Mu Hall, the Zhong Miao Yi was already able to greet him with a smile and a bow, "Greetings to the Emperor."
Su Zeyi quickly stepped forward and pulled her up: "When did you have so many rules? "Come in."
He naturally pulled her hand, but the Zhong Miao Yi restrained himself and did not shake him off.
Ah Jiu's eyes stared straight at him. When did Zhong Miao Yi suddenly understand? She was actually willing to exchange a few words with Su Zeyi.
Ah Jiu pinched himself so hard that he was almost in tears from the pain.
Shun Chang stood at the side and watched Ah Jiu's actions, then walked over: "Aunt, what are you doing? Should we bring tea to the emperor and his nobles? "
Ah Jiu suddenly recovered from his shock and glanced at Shun Chang, "Of course I want to! How can the emperor not have tea when he comes to our palace? Those who don't know what it's like to say it, will think that our noble people have been scarified in this palace. "
Seeing that Ah Jiu had recovered, Shun Chang looked at her while giggling and did not say anymore.
After the Ah Jiu served the tea to Su Zeyi and the others, they all left consciously. There was no one left in the house.
Su Zeyi looked at her room: You didn't add anything, don't you like it? Not to my liking? Or are the servants below doing things without a care? "
Zhong Miao Yi shook her head: "I just don't like it and think it's troublesome. You know, I never had so many things that I wanted to use."
Su Zeyi then retracted his gaze and looked at her again: "Xiao'er said that you are willing to go to her birthday, I see, you have even given her the bracelet from before?"
Zhong Miao Yi nodded her head, a smile on her face: "Nothing of value, I can only give her something of value, to prevent her from thinking too much into it."
Su Zeyi frowned, "You are afraid that she will think too much into it, aren't you afraid that we will think too much into it? That's what I gave you back then, and it's yours. You are not allowed to give it to others. "
After saying that, he carefully fished out an item wrapped in a handkerchief.
Zhong Miao Yi's heart skipped a beat, thinking that he couldn't possibly have gotten the item back from Zhou Xu, right?
The facts proved that Zhong Miao Yi's thoughts were correct. When Su Zeyi opened up the item in his hand, it was obviously the pair of bracelets that she had given to Zhou Xu.
Zhong Miao Yi was a little dumbfounded. "What are you still coming back for?"
On the contrary, Su Zeyi was overjoyed, as if he was an official who had received meritorious services. Aren't you happy? "You should take care of this bracelet. I will just give her another portion of it. Since you're willing to give her birth, she shouldn't have any other requests."
Zhong Miao Yi did not speak.
She knew that Su Zeyi was feeling guilty. This kind of guilt tormented his remaining conscience, as she was no longer the little girl from before. This kind of tender attack would not let her feel even the slightest bit safer, but would instead make her more clear-headed.
This was probably Zhou Xu's first defeat.
Zhong Miao Yi did not want to find any sense of victory, she only wanted to use Zhou Xu to lure Su Zeyi over.
It was that simple.
However, because Su Zeyi had acted on his own, Zhou Xu definitely had a lot of thoughts that he should not have had before.
Zhong Miao Yi had a headache, she had to resist the urge to let Su Zeyi put the bracelet back on her hand.
"You wore this that day." Su Zeyi came to a conclusion casually, and did not consider how Zhou Xu would feel about such an action.
The favor of an emperor was only mediocre.
Zhong Miao Yi did not refute him, nor did she say much. She did not want to anger Su Zeyi at this moment, and also knew that she had much more things to do.
