Chapter 56 Eat melons

The summer sun is so harsh. Xiaoyu waited by the stone table in the front yard for a while, his skirt was quietly hanging, not even a wisp of wind. It was originally a shade, and soon the sun shone here. The young girl's cheeks were as bright as peaches and plums, and her skin was so tender that she could almost pinch out water. Xiaoyu's appearance was unparalleled. At this moment, her jade cheeks gradually climbed up two red glows, and some thin sweat oozed out of her forehead.

Looking towards the green melon field-

The vines that were still energetic just now were now hanging down with leaves, and the sun was a little wilted.

Chunxiao silently held an umbrella for her.

Chun Ming stood aside. After a while, he couldn't help but mutter: "Why haven't the emperor come yet?"

I just said that I would come here after I finished the matter, but now it’s been so long. It’s okay to wait in the bedroom on weekdays. The sun is so big outside, how can the girl’s family stand it? What should I do if the lady has heatstroke?

Xiao Yu thought about it, glanced at Chunxiao beside him, and said, "Let's go in first."

This made Chunxiao collect the umbrella and go back to the bedroom.

If Xue Zhan had been an emperor before, the casual words were imperial edicts. If she had to wait here, of course she had to wait.

But she had been married to him for a while, and she had a little clue about his temper. The rough nature developed in the countryside naturally did not care about this level. He was delayed if he had something to do. She went to the hall first when she saw the sun was too big, which was the most normal thing.

Xiao Yu was the legitimate daughter of the Duke of the Guru Mansion. When Xiao's family was favored by him, he suffered half of the crime? Although he had been basking the sun for a while outside, although Xiao Yu felt a little uncomfortable, it was completely understandable.

How can political affairs be handled very well after they are handled? It is obvious which is more important, government affairs or picking melons.

When she returned to the hall, Madam Yuan poured hot tea for her.

Xiao Yu was sitting on the ring chair. Chun Ming was bent down and rubbed the soil on the back of her shoes and the corners of her skirt with a veil. It was just a little bit dipped, not much, just rub it a little, and it would be done. There was no need to replace it with a little bit of dirtyness as before.

The exquisite lotus-patterned blue and white tea cups were filled with tea fragrance. Xiao Yu was indeed a little thirsty, but he did not reach out to get it. Instead, he looked up at Madam Yuan and said, "Isn't it cold? Yesterday's iced plum tea was good."

Madam Yuan said, "My lady, your letter date is coming soon. It is not advisable to drink those cold ones anymore. Besides, this hot tea is more thirsty."

No matter what, my daughter's house is always not suitable for drinking cold drinks.

Xiao Yu was sick when he came out of the womb. When he was a child, he was like a desolate kitten. The people who served him must be careful and meticulous everywhere. Although Madam Yuan was a servant, she took care of Xiao Yu since she was a child. Xiao Yu could hear her words.

A little girl of fifteen or sixteen years old likes to drink ice when she is cold in summer. They are now unable to cater to their masters blindly. When it is time to persuade them, they have to persuade them.

As he said that, he handed the hot tea to Xiao Yu.

Knowing that Madam Yuan was doing her best, Xiao Yu had to take the tea and take a sip. It didn't burn her mouth, the temperature was just right. He lowered his head and drank half a cup in small sips.

After a while, Chunxiao came in, held a note in his hand, and handed it to Xiao Yu: "Empress..."

Xiao Yu was puzzled, put down the teacup and opened the folded note from Chunxiao's hand.

I saw four words written on it: The emperor was furious.

Xiao Yu's heart suddenly pounded. She looked at Chunxiao and asked, "Who gave it to you?"

Chunxiao whispered: "It's a little eunuch. I have seen it several times, as if... it's someone around Eunuch He."

He Chaoen was a eunuch around the emperor. Whether it was the eunuchs and maids in the palace or the civil and military officials outside, they all wanted to flatter him. He looked very good-tempered and was very gentle to everyone, but he was a clear stream and had never had a close relationship with anyone. Since Xiao Yu entered the palace, the emperor had never accepted concubines. This man with strong blood has always been running to Fengzao Palace every day. The servants of Fengzao Palace of course were a little familiar with He Chaoen.

He Chaoen... Xiao Yu lowered his eyes gently. She entered and left the palace since she was a child and understood the way of the deep palace. He Chaoen accepted her gift book that day. On her birthday, he gave her an inkstone, which means he was willing to make friends with her. After staying in the palace for a long time, each one was naturally not simple, let alone serving the emperor. Looking at the free and smooth words on this note, it was much better than the rough and sloppy words of Xue Zhan, the barbarian man.

It really looks like what He Chaoen wrote.

However, he was furious...

If it was a government matter, He Chaoen naturally didn't need to remind her specifically. Then, it was her business, or... the Xiao family's business.

Xiao Yu thought about it and felt that it was probably because of the Xiao family's affairs that made him unhappy. As for what it was, she hadn't thought about it yet. After sitting for a while, Xiao Yu put the note on a few and said to Chun Ming: "You go to the melon field in the front yard and pick a bigger melon."

...

On that day, Liu Xiude, the nephew of the Minister of Rites Liu Wei, came to the Duke of Guardian's Mansion to propose marriage to Xiao Yuzhi. Liu Xiude, the nephew of the Minister of Rites Liu Wei, was 18 years old and one year older than Xiao Yuzhi. He had a handsome appearance, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was said to have a kind and honest personality.

Liu knew Xiao Yuzhi's temper, and was arrogant and unreasonable, and refused to give in or suffer any losses in everything. He knew that she could not change it, so he had to choose a husband with a simple family and a good temper.

Liu was very satisfied with Liu Xiude.

Xiao Yuzhi is at the age of marriage and is the queen's cousin. If she marrys her, she will be the emperor's brother-in-law. Moreover, Xiao Yuzhi is also a delicate beauty, and there have always been many people who have proposed marriages. Xiao Yuzhi is naturally a little shy and happy, proving that she is charming.

However, I always pick and choose, thinking that the other party is not good at all. Now I see that Liu is so satisfied and want to make a decision for her, but I am not happy.

Xiao Yuzhi said: "I don't know what Liu Xiude looks like, so I don't want to marry him."

The marriage event of the girl's family was originally the order of her parents and matchmakers. Although it was normal to meet her at the wedding night. When Liu looked at Xiao Yuzhi, she frowned and said, "You are seventeen years old. If you don't get married, you will be an old girl. What's wrong with Mr. Liu? His uncle is a decent minister of the Ministry of Rites, and he will definitely have a great future in the future, let alone why haven't you seen her? Yesterday, she was in the martial arts fair, and Mr. Liu also went to the stage."

Xiao Yuzhi refused to follow: "His uncle is Lord Shangshu, not him."

It seems that he is a second-rank official, and he has the ability to become a minister of the Shangshu himself.

She has been used to Xiao Yu since she was a child. Although her relationship with Xiao Yu is somewhat relieved now, she still has to worry about what she should be. Xiao Yu is a widow and can still marry a dignified emperor. Why can't she marry a high-ranking and powerful daughter who has never left the palace?

Seeing her mother glaring at her, Xiao Yuzhi muttered unconvincedly: "I have an impression of the outstanding performance in the martial arts scene yesterday. Mother, you said he was on the show, but I don't remember it, that means he is not good at kung fu..."

"I can't even enter the top three, why should I marry me?"

Liu Xiude is indeed less skilled than other young talents. However, Liu is also selfish and has a high position and a powerful person. With her daughter's stubborn nature, she will definitely suffer grievances when she married her. Liu Xiude is honest and generous, and has good conditions in all aspects. Even if she marrys this beautiful wife, even if she has a bad temper, she will be nice to her.

Liu said helplessly: "You should not compare this kind of thing with your sixth sister. If you marry Mr. Liu, your life may not be worse than her in the future."

Xiao Yuzhi thought about it and felt that there was some truth. She did think that the new emperor was handsome, masculine in his body, and his archery appearance yesterday were even more heroic, which made her feel like a deer. She naturally liked it, but... her burly appearance was indeed too scary, at least she would never dare to look at him.

Such a person has to spend time together day and night, and sleep with the same bed... Thinking of this, Xiao Yuzhi suddenly felt a creepy feeling.

Xiao Yuzhi slid her lips: "Even if she doesn't compete with Xiao Yu, mother, you can't let me marry such a coward, right?"

In Liu's opinion, that Mr. Liu is good everywhere.

but……

She looked at her daughter's disgusting appearance and remembered the performance of the Wei Chu yesterday. She was indeed awesome, and her demeanor and appearance were indeed far from Liu Xiude... No wonder. Liu said angrily: "It's not that my mother doesn't know what you want, but that Wei Chu... is not suitable for you."

Why did you suddenly say this? Xiao Yuzhi paused and immediately said, "Mother, what did you mention him?"

She seemed to be a little unwilling to mention him, and her expression was even more disgusting than when she mentioned Liu Xiude just now, saying word by word: "I won't marry Liu Xiude, let alone marry him... Could it be that there are only two men in Jincheng?"

After all, he felt sorry for his daughter. Seeing that she was so displeased, Liu gave up. He had to say, "Okay, okay, if you don't want to, I will discuss with your father how to refuse them in the evening."

...

During the day, Xue Zhan never came to Fengzao Palace again. Lunch and dinner were eaten by Xiao Yu alone.

At night, he had to deal with government affairs in the imperial study room, so Xiao Yu took a shower first and prepared to rest on the bed. After washing, Xiao Yu came out of the clean room and saw a tall figure standing next to the cabinet.

She was stunned for a moment before shouting, "Emperor?" Now she was a little used to it. When this barbarian came to Fengzao Palace, he didn't follow the rules and sometimes came in without saying a word.

He was still wearing his morning robe. He was going to come to her to change her clothes after the court. Today, he stayed in front of the melon field for a while, and before he could enter the hall, he went to the imperial study room.

Xiao Yu went over and was about to wait for him to change his clothes. When he stood beside him, he saw him quietly looking at the objects placed in the cabinet.

In this pineapple wood cloud pattern cabinet, there are some miscellaneous gadgets, and nothing else is special. I wonder why he suddenly wanted to open it on a whim. Xiao Yu said, "I'm serving the emperor to change his clothes?"

He smiled and looked at Chunxiao behind him. Chunxiao understood and went out to prepare immediately.

Xue Zhan said "um" softly, and his tall and majestic body now had a faint look, looking a little scary. Fortunately, Xiao Yu knew in advance that he was in a bad mood and was mentally prepared.

Xue Zhan looked at the wooden carvings in the cabinet without blinking.

...The fat fish is carved vividly.

Xiao Yu raised his hand to serve him to change his clothes. When he took off his outer robe, he saw him standing there like a wood, and insisted on her tiptoe. So he looked at him and said in a low voice: "Master, can you bend down slightly?"

In the past, she bent down naturally to make it easier for her to take off her clothes, but when she bent down, she would come over and kiss her randomly. Sometimes it was smelly, so Xiao Yu despised him.

Xiao Yu said that Xue Zhan bent down a little while when she saw her taking off her outer robe for him and handing it to Chun Ming beside him.

I was going to take a shower, but before that, I had to have a small thing. Xiao Yu saw that Chunxiao had come in and held a tray with red painted golden crabapple flowers. On top of it was a dish of melon that was washed and cut into small pieces.

Xiao Yu smiled, his bright eyes were like a crescent moon, and Chunxiao put them on the side and said to the man in front of him: "I don't know how to pick melons, so I chose a slightly bigger one. I don't know if it's sweet or not. The emperor will accompany me to try it."

Xue Zhan followed her.

Seeing that he was unmoved, Xiao Yu reached out, picked up a golden melon, and raised his hand to hand it to him.

She had just taken a shower and felt a faint fragrance on her body, which looked like the fragrance of flowers and not the fragrance of flowers. Xue Zhan was a rough man, so he naturally didn't know what it smelled, but he only knew that it smelled good. He always liked to hold her and smell the smell on her body. At this moment, she had not tied her hair, covered with long black hair, and her makeup on her face was washed clean, revealing a pretty but beautiful face... as delicate as a crabapple, with a beautiful face with snow-skinned skin and flowers.

Xue Zhan saw her raising her hand, her wrist was white and thin, as if he could break it with a slight pinch.

At this moment, the plain white little hand was holding a piece of melon...

He didn't go to pick him up, but said, "Yesterday, the Wei Chu performed outstandingly in the martial arts venue. I heard that he was not married yet. The queen had thought of making a marriage for him."

It turned out that he knew that he was unhappy and pleasing and comforting. But this melon was something she really wanted to share with him. She also thought that with his temperament, he always had to eat a few bowls of rough food every time he ate, and he probably could eat several of these melons in one breath. She could not help but despise his behavior in her heart, but sometimes she thought it was quite interesting when she thought about it carefully.

But... why did you suddenly talk about Wei?

Xiao Yu's smile slowly calmed down and he was a little dazed, and then he said, "I have never thought about it..." Even Wei Chu was at the age of getting married, and the marriage was arranged by her father, so naturally she was not the turn to worry about it.

Just as he was about to ask him how he said Wei Zhi's marriage, he saw him smile slightly, his smile was completely different from usual, and he was very cold, and continued: "I have heard that Miss Xiao Wu loves Wei Zhi very much... It's better to give me a marriage and betroth Xiao Yuzhi to Wei Zhi. What do you think?"

Xiao Yuzhi. Xiao Yu thought about it.

Xiao Yuzhi does like Wei Zhi, but that was three years ago. She was fond of the old and old. She liked the people who came and went quickly, and now she may not like Wei Zhi. As for Wei Zhi, it is even harder to say. If he had liked him at that time, he would not have left the Duke of Guru and went outside alone.

Perhaps she has tasted the feeling of being unable to control herself since she was a child. Xiao Yu doesn't like casual marriages, let alone her brother.

So he said, "I think it is better to have a relationship between two people in marriage..."

No, even if it was given a marriage, Wei Zu was the adopted son of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion and married Xiao Yuzhi, which was a bit unqualified. Xiao Yu suddenly thought of something and looked up at his eyes.

The man's eyes in front of him were gloomy and a little scarlet, as if it was a sign of anger that the storm was about to come and the wind filled the building. It was like an angered beast, which would tear you apart in the next moment and swallow it in one bite.

She suddenly felt a little scared and opened her mouth to speak.

But he heard him say slowly, "...You don't want him to get married at all. I'm right?"
