Chapter 515: The Fight for Favor



After Li Xiuzhu sent Qianqian away, he asked, "Sanniang, has anything happened recently?"

Du Sanniang knew that Li Xiuzhu was referring to the Grand Canal outside the city. She nodded and said, "Two waves of bandits came in the past few days since the prince left. They acted very quickly and caused the death of two thousand people in the first wave."

"One thousand two hundred of them were trampled to death by the people themselves."

"Although Sister Huang Rong has arranged defenses, the defense is mainly based on grouping together and guarding in four directions. The enemy's attack was delayed, and that's why so many people died."

"After Sister Huang Rong changed the formation to eight positions, they still rushed for position once."

"I took action both times, cooperating with the sergeant to fight back."

"Although we left more than 5,000 of them, Sister Huang Rong checked twice and said that they should still have at least tens of thousands of them."

Li Xiuzhu nodded. These many people must be either bandits, domestic slaves, or soldiers in the army.

He might have to go to the military camp to check whether he is a soldier, but if he dares to go, the other party will definitely take the risk.

But Li Xiuzhu didn’t understand.

Why did he do this when he knew he couldn't break through the camp and cause a large number of casualties? Was he crazy? Or was he testing something? To be honest, he had no idea what the other party was doing.

Just as Li Xiuzhu was thinking, Du Sanniang silently walked behind Li Xiuzhu and started pressing his temples.

Li Xiuzhu grabbed Du Sanniang's hand and pulled her, and immediately Du Sanniang sat in Li Xiuzhu's arms. The action was done in one go, as if it had been practiced countless times.

But Li Xiuzhu just wanted to say that this was purely a mutual understanding.

At this moment, Li Xiuzhu suddenly felt something in his heart and heard Huang Rong's voice.

"I don't know how Fu'er is doing in the capital. Does she miss me?"

"And that bad guy, why did he bring a little girl back again? How many women does he have?"

"Oh, I'm so tired. I'm already so old, do I still have to compete with little girls for affection?"

"But if I don't compete for his favor, will he gradually lose patience with me?"

"..."

Just when Huang Rong's inner voice stopped and Li Xiuzhu thought it was over, Huang Rong's inner voice sounded again.

"Well, if he's willing to let me go, I'll go back to Peach Blossom Island and never come out again."

??? What is this girl thinking? Doesn't she know how much I love her? She's almost hating Sedan.

Li Xiuzhu was thinking and listening at the same time, and he never forgot Du Sanniang. He really made full use of his time.

After a while, Xianxian came out with a refreshed look on her face, and said softly, "Master, go take a shower. Xianxian is done."

"Don't taste Kanan's bath water!"

Li Xiuzhu's forehead darkened. Who did this little brat learn this from? She was just an alluring little fairy, but now she has turned into a sweet little Lolita? "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will send you back to Shangjing."

Hearing this, Xianxian slowly lowered her head, poked with two fingers, and said in a lost tone: "Is it okay if Xianxian is wrong..."

Li Xiuzhu was unmoved, mainly because he had seen this girl pretending many times.

"So what next?"

Suddenly, Qianqian raised her head, chuckled and said, "I'll dare to do it again in the future! Hehehe!"

Chuckling, Kanan turned around and flew out without waiting for Li Xiuzhu to take action.

It looks light and agile, like an elf, bathing in the moonlight.

This girl...

Li Xiuzhu turned around to take a shower, and at this moment, Sun Youling walked in.

Seeing Li Xiuzhu, Sun Youling said, "Just now Sister Sanniang told us that the prince had returned. We were all about to go to bed, but when we heard that it was the prince who had returned, everyone got up and put on makeup again."

Li Xiuzhu looked at Sun Youling's face and asked in confusion, "So why don't you put on makeup?"

"It is said that women dress up to please themselves. You don't like me? So you don't want to dress up for me?"

"I am not as pretty as my three sisters. Even if my painting is beautiful, it will not be as pretty as my three sisters."

"So why not take this opportunity to help His Majesty take a bath?"

"As long as I behave better, be more obedient, and be more sensible, the prince will never abandon me."

Li Xiuzhu didn't expect Sun Youling to say such a thing. He smiled and praised, "Very smart, but there's no need to be so cautious."

"Unless you do something that crosses my bottom line, you are my concubine just like everyone else."

"As for abandonment, there is no such thing. This king is only widowed, not abandoned."

"Do you understand?"

Sun Youling nodded seriously after hearing this.

“I understand!”

Not only were her words serious, her eyes were also serious, and it was obvious that she really heard it in her heart.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Li Canghai, Chen Yuanyuan and Zheng Xiu came to the side hall of the main house after putting on their makeup.

There was only one person at their table, so they didn't need to go to the cafeteria to eat.

Li Xiuzhu just took a bath quietly and waited for his meal. He did not do anything bad.

However, after taking a shower, Sun Youling did not go back to the room with him, but went to her own room to change clothes and put on makeup.

Seeing Li Xiuzhu, the three girls stood up and bowed.

"Your Majesty."

"Didn't I tell you that there's no need for so many rules at home? Look who's doing the greetings? Sit down, everyone."

Huang Rong smiled gently and said, "Your Highness is calling us, why don't you sisters stand up and salute us?"

Before she stood up, Li Xiuzhu came up behind her and slapped her.

"Rong'er, if you continue to be naughty, you will be the only one to sleep with me today."

Huang Rong's face changed, she blushed and glared at Li Xiuzhu, but she didn't dare to speak.

This is a reward for a group of sisters, but if it is just one person, it would be a real pain.

After hearing what Li Xiuzhu said, Qianqian's eyes lit up, and she immediately came over and said with a hint of expectation: "Master, Qianqian was naughty today, why don't you let Qianqian sleep alone?"

Hey, kid, why are you everywhere?

Li Xiuzhu looked at Huang Rong with a frown on his face and she chuckled.

"I said next year is next year, even if you said the sky will break it will be next year, how come you can't wait for half of the time?"

At this moment, Huang Rong suddenly realized that Li Xiuzhu still had principles. This way, her daughter would be safe for the next two years.

"Now we don't have to worry about him secretly eating Fu'er!"

Li Xiuzhu: ???

Do I look like that kind of person?

"That's great. I can finally put one thing to rest."

Li Xiuzhu pushed Xianxian aside in annoyance, but this little devil really couldn't be driven away. As soon as he sat down, she sat in Li Xiuzhu's arms.

Just like those little girls competing with their mothers for favor.

"Xianxian, do you think it's convenient for the master to eat like this?"

Kanan looked like she had done something wrong, but she refused to leave. Her big eyes seemed to be saying, "If you say that to me again, I will cry."
