Chapter 143 Observe carefully
Chapter 143 Observe carefully
The No. 1 Tianzi in Wangjiang Tower is truly extraordinary, facing the most beautiful Lancang River in Beijing. You can enjoy the unique river view at any time of the day, and the river view changes with the seasons.
"Your Highness, please wait a moment. The food will be here soon."
Liang Chongyue nodded towards Mo Youqian, indicating that he could leave.
As soon as Mo Youqian humbly withdrew from Tianzi No. 1, he entered the private room No. 2 opposite.
"Master, Her Highness the Princess brought a young man she doesn't know today, and she didn't ask for any wine. I'm afraid it's inconvenient for us to meet you at Tianzi No. 1."
Mo Youqian's back, which was straight outside, immediately bent even more as soon as he got in front of his master than when he saw Her Royal Highness the Princess just now.
"Since Chongyue is not available, forget it. Have someone pack up some honey wine and send it to the princess's residence. She loves to drink, so it's time for her to change her taste."
Xiang Huayang was sitting opposite Mo Youqian and playing chess with a beautiful woman. He was obviously not paying attention while playing chess. The woman had already eaten up a small area of his black piece in just a few moves.
"Yes, the slave will leave."
Mo Youqian left the private room No. 2 with his eyes downcast and his back bent. When there was no one else in the room, the beautiful woman gathered the jade-colored and dark green brocade scarf around her chest, and looked at Xiang Huayang with a pair of eyes as clear as autumn water.
"If the master is worried, he can send a knowledgeable servant to take a look under the pretext of delivering food. It's better than guessing here."
Xiang Huayang did not respond to the woman, but continued to play chess quietly.
"master."
"Shut up, Chongyue is a princess, it's not your place to interfere."
The woman was suddenly stunned by Xiang Huayang's scolding. The corners of her mouth drooped sullenly, and a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes. Her men were merciless and wished they could eat all of Xiang Huayang's black spots to vent their anger.
Xiang Huayang saw her intention and deliberately let her win twice, allowing her to win the game and relieve his anger.
After the game was over, seeing that the woman was finally happy, Xiang Huayang slowly spoke. Although his tone was not as harsh as before, it was still calm:
"Chongyue has always been a thoughtful child. She knows how to act in moderation. Please restrain your thoughts and don't try to find out about the people and things around her. If you fall into her hands, even I can't save you."
The woman felt a tightness in her heart at the master's words. The master had kept her just to gather information, and this was the first time the master had asked her not to attack anyone.
Thinking of the good reputation that the Zhenguo Princess had enjoyed in the capital over the years, the woman chuckled and said flatteringly:
"Master, you are overthinking it. Master has given instructions today. Fu Ying will never do it."
Xiang Huayang looked at her like this with a cold look in his eyes. If Fu Ying was the one that he had personally selected from the one hundred girls and nurtured carefully to become the most eloquent girl that met his standards, he knew her personality best.
She was usually beautiful and well-behaved, but he gave her some rights on a whim, which also made her develop a bad temper.
If this temper is used in the right way, it can be interesting, but if it is used in the wrong way, he will be too indulgent.
"If you do it, I won't let you go even without Chongyue's help."
Xiang Huayang had an indifferent expression. He leaned back with his hands on the armrests and signaled her to come over with his eyes.
Under normal circumstances, Fu Ying would have come close to him with a smile. Her master had always been like this to her alone outside and was willing to indulge her. She had already entrusted her whole heart to him.
But today was the first time that the master had treated her coldly. The former favor seemed like a shadow, like her courage.
It seemed like an illusion that she had deliberately let him off the hook to calm down. It was the first time that Ruo Fuying felt the pain of being rejected by her master.
But for those who have been deliberately trained for so many years, the first thing that comes to their mind when the master gives an order is to obey.
The uncomfortable feeling in my heart hadn't passed yet, and my body had already leaned towards the master...
Liang Chongyue had no idea what was happening in the private room opposite. She was facing various dishes piled up like a mountain in the bowls.
Li Yu'an was like a madman. He took seven or eight small bowls with various dishes in them. If he thought something was delicious, he would pick it up with chopsticks and put it in front of her.
For fear of the smell mixing, she had to put them separately. Soon, there were seven or eight small hills in front of her.
"Your Highness, please try this. This steamed sea bass is really good."
Less than five minutes after the dishes were served, Li Yu'an had already tasted them all and put the best parts into her bowl.
She politely declined, but the person on the other end didn't understand what she was saying.
Helplessly, she could only pick up the chopsticks and pick up the various dishes in front of her.
But apart from anything else, she had eaten at Wangjiang Tower a few times before, and the food Li Yu'an put in her bowl was indeed better than what she usually put in herself.
Liang Chongyue looked at it carefully.
In a dish of Chinese cabbage soup, her bowl contained the tenderest cabbage heart, and in a steamed sea bass, only the belly part was in her bowl, not to mention the wild hot pot, braised silver thread, and cherry meat stewed with Wannian sake.
Almost everything in the bowl in front of her was the most delicious part.
The chef in Wangjiang Tower's cooking skills are comparable to those in the Queen Mother's small kitchen, and the ingredients he uses are all top quality.
In this situation, Li Yu'an could still pick out the most delicious part and put it into her bowl.
Liang Chongyue tasted a piece of cherry flesh, and when she looked up, she saw Li Yu'an looking at her with sparkling eyes, like a child waiting for praise.
"Don't you want to eat meat? Why don't you continue eating?"
Li Yu'an put down his chopsticks and sat quietly aside, as if he couldn't see the delicious dishes on the table and was satisfied just by watching His Highness eat.
"I am full. I am very satisfied to be able to dine with Your Highness."
Liang Chongyue looked at Li Yu'an suspiciously. He did taste every dish, but he only ate a small piece. There were only eight dishes on the table, so he was full already?
Why does this 1.9-meter-tall man have such a small appetite?
If the table wasn't blocking her view, she really wanted to observe through the cloth to see if Li Yu'an had developed well, or if he was hanging peppers under a big tree, which she could only watch from afar and not touch.
Understanding His Highness's strange look, Li Yuan burst out laughing:
"I just eat less, but my growth is fine. If Your Highness is curious, you can take me into your residence and observe me carefully."
