Li Furong, wearing a pretty dress and holding a bowl of nourishing soup, came into Xiao Shengxing's tent.
She glanced at the woman beside her, and a barely perceptible cold light flashed in her eyes, but no one noticed.
When Li Furong raised her eyes again, there was only a hint of tenderness in them.
Her cheeks were flushed pink, and her eyes looked shyly at the emperor sitting on the main seat. The girl's love-stricken look made Su Lijin, who was standing beside her, unable to pretend not to notice.
She immediately looked at the stern man beside her to see his reaction.
"Your Majesty, this is a soup I made myself. I added ingredients that replenish your energy and blood. You've been busy with military duties today, so you should replenish your body."
Handing the soup bowl to Xiao Shengxing, Li Furong looked at him shyly, waiting for him to take it.
However, Xiao Shengxing did not put down the memorial in his hand at all, but just glanced at her lightly.
"Put it down."
After saying these three words, he ignored everything else.
"Your Majesty, won't you drink it? This is brewed by me for two hours."
There was a hint of anticipation in Li Furong's voice.
Su Lijin saw that her hands were indeed red and swollen, as if she had been burned.
However, Xiao Shengxing seemed not to have heard it and had no intention of taking it.
Li Furong's hand holding the soup bowl was slightly stiff, and her rosy face turned even redder. She looked aggrieved, which made her even more lovable.
Watching the two of them from the side, Su Lijin raised an eyebrow and said, "Your Majesty, Miss Li is so kind, how can you be so cold and indifferent?"
She thought with a hint of malice in her heart, wondering how Xiao Shengxing would deal with such a woman who threw herself at him.
Judging from Xiao Shengxing's reaction, there is nothing special for the time being. I wonder if he will always be this cold.
Her words finally made Xiao Shengxing raise his head, his dark eyes filled with a hint of helplessness: "I have already eaten, there is no need to worry about it, Miss Li."
Li Furong bit her lip and put down the soup bowl, then said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, drink when you're hungry."
"Since the emperor doesn't want to drink, he must be tired. Why not let Miss Li give you a back massage?" Su Lijin's voice sounded again.
Xiao Shengxing glanced at her, his black eyes slightly dissatisfied.
Li Furong on the side smiled very gently, she still wanted to try.
The man had already walked behind Xiao Shengxing, raised his hands, and was about to start massaging.
"Your Majesty, this sister is right. I should give you a massage."
While speaking, she intentionally or unintentionally brought her lips close to Xiao Shengxing's ear, trying to seduce him secretly.
Seeing this scene, Su Lijin subconsciously clenched her fingers. She didn't even realize that she felt a little sour in her heart, although the sourness was fleeting.
However, just as Li Furong's fingers were about to fall, Xiao Shengxing's body retreated.
A force from nowhere quietly pushed Li Furong aside, making it impossible for her to get close to her.
"Miss Li, I don't need it. If you are fine, please go back."
There was a hint of seriousness in his black eyes, which made people afraid to act rashly.
"Then I will not disturb the Emperor..."
There was a hint of loss in her voice. After Li Furong finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Shengxing with nostalgia and slowly walked out.
But after she walked out, where no one could see her, there was no trace of shyness or loss on her face, and there was clearly a hint of calculation at the corner of her lips.
She snorted in her heart, this emperor is really difficult to deal with.
Su Lijin glanced at the unromantic man, raised her eyebrows, and ignored him.
She followed Li Furong out and said with a smile, "Miss Li, don't be discouraged. Maybe the emperor is really full, so he doesn't want to drink the soup."
"Really?"
"Um."
Seeing Li Furong's eyes begin to shine again, Su Lijin nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Why don't you go in and grind ink for the emperor later? The emperor seems to like having someone grind ink for him next to him."
She couldn't help but think of the time when she ground ink for Xiao Shengxing and he seemed very happy.
Li Furong looked innocent, holding Su Lijin's breasts with both hands, and thanked her: "Sister, you are so kind, thank you."
Looking at her eyes filled with innocence and gratitude, Su Lijin felt inexplicably guilty.
She felt a little soft-hearted. Perhaps Li Furong was really a young girl in love and had no bad intentions.
Is it a bit too much to tease her like this?
Thinking of this, Su Lijin decided that she shouldn't bother Li Furong, so she wanted to persuade her, but then she heard the voice of a eunuch behind her.
"Miss Li, the emperor summons you, go quickly."
"The Emperor summoned me? Did the Emperor tell me what it was about?"
The emperor just asked her to go back, why is he suddenly summoning her now?
Li Furong opened her lips slightly and looked at Su Lijin with some confusion.
Su Lijin shook her head, but her fingers couldn't help but tighten. Could it be that Xiao Shengxing...
She said, "I don't know either. Why don't we go and take a look?"
"Miss Li, please slow down. The Emperor has specially sent me to invite you. Please walk carefully. Otherwise, if you get hurt, I will not be able to bear the blame from the Emperor. Come, this way."
The eunuch looked at Li Furong in a very flattering and polite manner, his eyes acting as if he were looking at a favored concubine, which made Su Lijin inexplicably feel a little annoyed.
When he entered the big tent again, Xiao Shengxing was still sitting there.
The only difference from before was that when Li Furong appeared, Xiao Shengxing obviously set his sights on her.
"Miss Li, didn't you say you made soup for me earlier?"
"Yes, right here."
