Long live Emperor Wu!

When Miharu heard this, she immediately didn't know how to answer it.

After a while, Caiyi came in with some food, put it on the table next to him, and said:

"The Imperial Concubine has sent some more pear cakes. It's really strange. What the Imperial Concubine has given us are all our talents' favorite food. How did she know?"

Wu Rou turned her head, glanced at the cake, and then looked away.

In the past few days, Concubine Wei would give her some extra food every day, including pastries, tea, snacks, dinners, everything.

Caiyi is right, they are all her favorite food.

But where did the imperial concubine know?The only ones who know about it are Princess Jinyang and Prince Li Shan who once had dinner with her.

During the days when Princess Jinyang was here, she often accompanied them to eat at Wude Hall, so it was impossible for the emperor to worry about remembering her preferences.

It can only be him...

Wu Rou's eyes dimmed, her eyebrows drooped as she looked at the scenery outside the window.

So what if she knew he was caring about her?
Just know it and nothing will change.

He certainly didn't expect any change.

That's fine.

……

……

After eating, Li Shan rested in his bedroom in Wude Hall. He lay on the bed with one hand on the back of his head and the other hand holding the red glass bead, which he placed in front of his eyes and turned gently. , looking at the patterns inside, thinking nothing.

Suddenly, there was a soft knock on the door outside, and a palace maid reported softly:

"Your Highness, Shaojian Xu is back."

Li Shan turned his eyes, hid the glass bead behind his back, turned over and sat up from the bed, sat down dignifiedly, and then said:

"Come in."

Xu Shaojian was the plump, small-eyed chamberlain who summoned Wu Rou to the palace.

Ever since Wang entered the palace, the prince discovered that his words and deeds were all known to Wang, so he specially changed the chamberlains and female officials around him.

It was at that time that Xu Huaian was asked by the prince from the emperor to be his young eunuch serving as the eunuch in the East Palace.

The East Palace is a miniature version of the imperial court. The staff of the inner court of the East Palace are deployed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, but they operate independently from the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The young eunuch of the East Palace Chamberlain is the second-in-command of the East Palace Chamberlain, and he has been promoted.

He was chosen not because of his relationship with Wu Rou, but because he used to be an eunuch in front of the emperor, responsible for running errands and not serving in front of the palace. Even if the Wang family wanted to bribe him, he would not be bribed. superior.

Xu Huaian walked in respectfully, stood in front of the screen, bowed and said:

"Your Highness, the food boxes were sent according to the old rules, but the imperial concubine said that the small kitchen of Anren Palace can make these things, and they always send two portions at a time. It is a waste of things, and there is no need to show filial piety in the future."

After that, he raised his head to catch a glimpse of the prince's reaction, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything through the screen.

Prince Li Shan was silent for a while, then sighed gently and with regret, and said;
"Then forget it...you don't have to give it away anymore."

"Yes." Xu Huaian responded neatly and retreated.

……

……

Once every five days, Li Shan stayed in the East Palace again that night.

This time it was still in the princess's bedroom.

He didn't want to come at first, but the Crown Princess strongly invited her and said that since we should treat each other as guests, it wouldn't be too much to invite him to taste her own cooking after cooking, right?Li Shan thought about it carefully and realized that indeed, he had never appreciated the things the Crown Princess had done countless times since they got married.

If you really want to treat each other with respect, this is indeed going too far.

So he accepted the invitation and went, and under Wang's expectant eyes, he ate, drank a little wine, and even praised her a few words.

Those dishes were all ones he had been accustomed to eating since he was a child. Wang knew his preferences very clearly, even knowing which dishes were topped with coriander and which ones without garlic.

I can't say that her cooking skills are not good, but there are no surprises at all.

I don’t know if this is due to care or laziness.

After eating, the two of them washed up, got on the couch, turned on the lamp, and slept normally.

When I lay there, I always felt the aroma of wine lingering on my nose.

At first, he just thought it was because he had been drinking and the smell of alcohol had not dissipated. But after a while, he felt restless and uneasy all over. Wang's stretched out hand was pressed against his chest, even across the bed. I can feel a chill all over my clothes.

Very comfortable.

He knew clearly in his mind that he hated Mrs. Wang and didn't want her to have children of his own, but he still felt that the body of the woman next to him was attracting him.

He turned over and swallowed thirstily with his Adam's apple. He looked at the dim light and the shadowy shadows of objects outside through the bed curtain, feeling sad for himself in his heart.

What kind of person would hate her and at the same time crave her body like a wild beast?

Wang slowly and proactively stretched out her hand and wrapped it around his waist. The cold and soft touch slowly tightened on his abdomen.

For the first time, he felt that a woman would be so attractive to him. After holding back for a while, he finally couldn't help turning over and pounced on her.

He tore at the few clothes she had on her body. Although he felt disgusted in his heart, he felt physically uncomfortable and wanted to do something.

Just as Wang smiled sweetly and put her arms around his neck, his eyes suddenly saw the burning incense burner outside the bed curtain.

The fine smoke from the incense burner looked like a wandering spirit in the dim light.

He squinted his eyes, and a possibility suddenly came to his mind, and then it exploded.

Even though he didn't sleep here often, he knew that Wang didn't like burning incense while sleeping.

For someone like him who is used to incense all day long, the difference between not burning incense is huge.

But today she suddenly became angry, and there was a reason for her abnormal body.

He suddenly shook off Wang's hand that was holding him, opened the bed curtain, walked over, and opened the lid of the incense burner.

The palace maid who was watching outside heard the noise, and quickly opened the palace door left and right, walked around the screen, knelt there with her head bowed, put the palace lantern in her hand on the ground, and gave the prince a light.

As soon as he opened the lid of the incense burner, he saw the incense inside. The aroma of wine mixed with the fragrance of flowers hit his face. His heart beat harder and an uncomfortable heat surged in his lower abdomen.

He was holding the lid of the incense burner, the veins on his head were standing up, and he was clenching his teeth.

Mrs. Wang covered her chest with the quilt, lifted half of the bed curtain, and sat on the edge of the bed, with one foot on the ground and one foot crossed. She wanted to go over, but she didn't dare.

After a long time, she tremblingly, innocently and pitifully shouted:
"Your Highness...you...what's wrong with you?"

Prince Li Shan finally couldn't hold back his anger and swept down the incense burner. It hit the ground with a clang, which frightened the two palace ladies who were keeping watch at night and let out a scream.

He felt dizzy and a little unsteady on his feet. He was holding on to the table on which the incense burner was placed and it swayed. His pajamas were loose and he was extremely embarrassed.

At this time, because of the screams of the palace maid, the guards on duty outside the door asked loudly:

"Prince, what's wrong?!"

He was about to rush in soon.
