Concubine Shang Yunxiao

Chapter 260 The Restraining Luncheon

Naturally, these details cannot escape Gong Qinglong's shrewd eyes.If Yuan Xi had nothing to do with this embroidered shoe, she wouldn't be so panicked and shy.Could it be this shoe... Gong Qinglong was full of surprises, he stepped forward and asked urgently: "Xi'er, is this embroidered shoe yours?"

Yuan Xi hesitated for a moment before answering: "No."

But just this little hesitation convinced the clever Gong Qinglong that the woman's laughter that he heard while visiting Lan Lake that day and night came from Yuanxi.

She was actually the same as the little girl who lost the embroidered shoe.

Great surprise.

Gong Qinglong's joy was indescribable, and his smile became wider: "Xi'er, lying to me is deceiving you."

Yuan Xi was startled, she immediately thought of beheading.If it wasn't for the reason of beheading, how could she be forced into the palace.Now as long as she hears about deceiving the emperor, she will reflexively think of beheading.

Immediately, he said in a panic, "I didn't mean to..."

She was terrified.Gong Qinglong immediately felt distressed, and quickly comforted her, saying: "It's okay, it's okay. I'm just teasing you. Who made you such beautiful embroidered shoes?"

"My mother."

"The craftsmanship is really ingenious." Gong Qinglong praised, and he stretched out his finger to lightly touch the small bell on the shoe, "I saw that this shoe is exquisite, so I put it here, and there is no other meaning." What are you rushing to explain?
From the attic, there was an appropriate knock on the door.

"Your Majesty, lunch is here." Liu Yu said outside the door.

"Let's go down and eat." Gong Qinglong said.

"Will Ping Ao and Mo Yu come?" Yuan Xi asked.

Gong Qinglong smiled: "No, just the two of us."

A slight tension appeared on Yuan Xi's face immediately.

Gong Qinglong opened the door, and the little father-in-laws who delivered the meals placed the meals on the round table.After everything was arranged properly, Liu Yu closed the door and retreated.Gong Qinglong greeted Yuan Xi to sit down.

Yuan Xi walked to the round table hesitantly.Five dishes and one soup, very simple meal, but the fragrance is refreshing for a long time.

"Father, can you ask Ping Ao to eat together?" Yuan Xi refused to sit down.She felt uncomfortable all over.

"Ping Ao dined with his mother at the Fengqi Hall." Gong Qinglong said with a smile, "I dined with you at the Bauhinia Pavilion, in fact, to calm your surprise. You and Ao'er have only been married for one day, and I will punish you." You are studying behind closed doors at the Bauhinia Pavilion. I am afraid that you will think that I am a powerful king and a strict father. Shicai, I also know that I have wronged you three little masters. But Concubine Yuxian is pregnant, and I will consider her A little bit, follow her temperament. Xi'er, don't mind if the emperor punishes you to read the daughter's scriptures. But it's just for show."
