C71 swallow's nest

When had someone like him ever experienced true love? He was both true and false to his main wife, and he also seemed to have feelings for Li Yue. If he didn't mean it, when would he be the real him? Who knew if he was the same as the other factions in the capital that were trying to win her over, using a roundabout and tactful method to keep her here?

"Your highness is overthinking it. Li Yue is only a doctor, and to Li Yue, your highness, no matter what, is only an ordinary patient." She struggled to free herself from his embrace, fell her pen on the table, and went out without looking back.

Gu Qingli walked hurriedly, and she was even a bit flustered. She followed the path and entered her own yard, quickly changing out of her red clothes and stuffing them under the bed.

Even she didn't know why she was in such a state of panic. It was as if she was trying to escape from something.

It wasn't until she gradually calmed down that she had a vague feeling that she was only avoiding his gaze, his gentleness, or the feelings surging in his eyes.

She slowly embraced him, feeling the warmth of his embrace, thinking back to the soft words he whispered to her as he hugged her from behind.

You can't think about this! Gu Qingli had told him that when he had entered the palace as an imperial concubine, hadn't he done the same to him? She even hugged her and forcefully kissed her because she believed that Xiao Yi Bei had done something to her. This person, I'm afraid, would forever be unable to distinguish between feelings and possessiveness. He always thought that whatever he wanted must be obtained, and never cared about the wishes of others.

She took a deep breath, adjusted her hair in the mirror, and heard a knock at the door.

Yu Ying's voice was always soft. "Princess, Prince Chen has told you that she wants to see you."

"Prince Chen?" Gu Qingli thought for a moment. "Invite him in."

That child was so angry just now, but he actually managed to find her residence after circling around a few times? Aren't you afraid that Xiao Yi Xiu will get even angrier?

After Yu Ying led Xiao Yiyan in, she saw the red-clothed youth flick his sleeves with a dejected expression. Even his peach blossom eyes lost some of their luster: "Fifth royal sister-in-law, can I come to your place?"

"Since you're here, what can't you do?" Gu Qing Li knew why he was so angry, but she secretly found it funny. She asked Yu Ying to serve him a seat and instructed Yu Li to serve him some tea.

"I don't want to eat it, I'm in a bad mood."

"Huh? Who dares to make Prince Chen angry? Let me guess, in this Prince Mo's mansion, perhaps only we, the prince, have such abilities? "But he and Prince Chen have a deep relationship …"

"Don't mention it!"

Xiao Yiyan raised his voice, giving Gu Qingli a fright. He stopped and looked at him.

He seemed to have realized that he had lost his composure. His face slightly flushed, and his clear eyes glanced at her once more. Then, he smiled like a crescent moon. "Fifth royal sister-in-law, don't mind me. I am not treating you like this."

At this time, Yuli brought up some refreshments and stole a glance at Xiao Yiyan from time to time, as if she was slowing down on purpose in order to make him pay attention to her.

Sure enough, Xiao Yiyan also noticed the slow movements of the servant girl. He turned his head to look at her bent over face: "What are you doing? Do you know how many snacks This King has in front of him? "

Gu Qingli almost laughed out loud as she quickly covered her mouth with the handkerchief.

Yuli was like a frightened rabbit. She took a step back, and her face turned completely red. Her voice was also as soft as a mosquito. "I am too clumsy. Prince Chen, please excuse me."

Gu Qing Li finally saw through her thoughts. He couldn't help but sneer to himself.

Xiao Yiyan, however, didn't care. He saw the other party look at his shyly, then glanced back at her and smiled, "The maids here all look as sweet as dessert."

How could Yurei not be excited when she heard this? Although her face was as bashful as a young girl's in love, her eyes were clear as day.

Yu Ying coughed to the side.

Gu Qingli shot her a cold glance, "Yuli, if you're still free, help this wangfei stew a cup of bird's nest. Remember to add 1 spoonful of sugar, 12 red dates, 1 Chinese wolfberry, 5 angelica, 8 red ginseng, 2 coconut, 15 yam, 10 red cinnamon cubes, 2 red bean peels …"

She purposely reported hurriedly and quickly. There were a lot of miscellaneous items, and each item had a definite number of items. Not only did Yuli feel the cold sweat on her forehead, even Xiao Yiyan was dumbstruck.

"Do you hear me? If you still don't go down, you'll be the one to ask. "

Yupi had been treated to the point that she seemed extremely obedient. Although she was confused and couldn't remember how many things she had said, she was so anxious that she almost burst into tears.

Xiao Yiyan said carefully, "Fifth royal concubine, this nourishing qi and blood …" Isn't that a bit too much? It was just a cup of bird's nest, how could he add so many things? "Not to mention destroying the bird's nest's effect, even if you eat these nourishing ingredients, you should still have a nosebleed, right?"

Gu Qingli smiled at him. "If I stew this bird's nest, I won't eat it. I'll keep it for you."

Xiao Yiyan was flabbergasted: "To..." "That little girl from before?"

"That's right. She was rewarded because she was polite to the king and got praise from the king."

Xiao Yiyan understood and laughed, "Fifth sister, you're too bad. If you keep eating like this, she'll have to go to the latrine ten times a day …" "Oh, that's not right. There should be a long nosebleed."

Gu Qingli smiled and said, "There are so many hot and dry things here. I can't go to the latrine ten times a day, I'm afraid I can't even go to the latrine ten days."

Xiao Yiyan smiled until his eyes curved into crescents, "The Fifth Emperor's sister-in-law is punishing her like that …" Could it be that you don't like her? "

Gu Qingli's smile faded, "Prince Chen is used to thinking that people who get close to him are considerate and reliable, but in actuality, this rule isn't useful in the Residence of Mo King."

Xiao Yi and Yan Li were enlightened, and their smiles also faded away. Their eyeballs rolled in their sockets as they looked towards the door.

"Alright, let's not talk about these unpleasant things. Tell me why Prince Chen is unhappy."

"Didn't you guess correctly? Fifth brother scolded me. " He pouted, and a trace of malice appeared in his pure eyes.

"Hmm?"

Xiao Yiyan recounted the incident regarding the Begonia.

"In that case, I'm a bit angry too."

"Why?" Xiao Yiyan tilted his head, confused.

"When you see a girl, you can come out and make them happy. As your imperial sister-in-law, how can I not be angry when I haven't even seen your flowers?"

Xiao Yi Yan was startled, then laughed: "Spells are all a trick to trick people, it's just a small trick. As fifth brother said, flowers and such were just tricks used to coax little girls. How can those frivolous things be used against the five emperors and sister-in-law? "

He opened up a small space on the tea table in front of him and waved his sleeve. A small purple sandalwood box appeared on the table and he smiled. "This is a gift for the Fifth Emperor's sister-in-law."

Gu Qingli was very interested in his tricks. Seeing that the box was only half a meter in diameter, she couldn't understand where he was hiding so she smiled and said, "Duke Chen, can you teach me that trick? Why can't I tell where you hid it? "

Xiao Yiyan smiled slyly, "When it comes to teaching the Fifth Emperor's sister-in-law, who will be surprised in the future?"

Gu Qingli smiled. Actually, she didn't really want to learn too much. If he wasn't willing to say, then so be it.
