Upon hearing this, Hongzhou glanced at the flowers in Qiuyun's hand, said nothing more, simply nodded, and casually pointed to the display shelf next to him, saying, "Just place them on the display shelf."
"yes."
Qiu Yun carried the flowers to the antique shelf behind Hong Zhou and put them down. As she passed Hong Zhou, a delicate fragrance wafted over, and Hong Zhou felt a jolt in his heart. But after a moment, he regained his composure and said to Qiu Yun, who loved flowers, "Go down."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yun nodded, slowly walked out from beside Hong Zhou, and gently closed the study door.
However, Hongzhou did not expect that for several days in a row, Qiuyun would bring a unique pot of flowers to the study every day, and the antique shelves in the study were almost full.
One day, when Wu Kuzha looked at the flowers in Hongzhou's study, the fleeting sadness on her face did not escape Hongzhou's notice.
The next day, when Qiu Yun came to the study again, Hong Zhou finally couldn't help but say to her indifferently, "You don't need to send any more flowers in the future. I don't need these flowers."
Upon hearing Hongzhou's words, Qiuyun's expression froze for a moment before she said somewhat aggrievedly, "This is Her Majesty's wish, and this servant dares not disobey."
Hongzhou then said, "Just hand the flowers to the servant at the door; there's no need for you to come in."
Hongzhou naturally couldn't reveal the real reason why he didn't want to see Qiuyun again. Every time she came to Hongzhou to give him flowers, she always had an alluring fragrance on her, which made Hongzhou feel a little uneasy.
Upon hearing Hongzhou's words, Qiuyun dared not say anything more and could only agree. So she put down the flowers in her hand and slowly said, "Yes, this servant obeys."
"What's wrong? Didn't you just deliver the flowers to Hongzhou? Why do you look so down?" In the past, Qiuyun would return happily every day after delivering the flowers to Hongzhou, but today she looked listless, so Geng asked with some suspicion.
Qiu Yun stood before Madam Geng, looking somewhat sad, and said, "The Prince does not wish to see me."
Upon hearing Qiu Yun's words, she was immediately filled with anger and said with dissatisfaction, "This Hong Zhou, of all the women, he just happens to like this Wu Kuzha."
Geng's intention was also to push Qiu Yun in front of Hong Zhou, because the two concubines were not working, and she thought Qiu Yun was good, so she came up with this idea. However, Hong Zhou is still unwilling to accept other women, and Geng is becoming more and more dissatisfied with Wu Kuzha.
"Go and summon Wu Kuzha."
"yes."
Before long, Wu Kuzha arrived at Rongyi Courtyard. She bowed to Geng, who was drinking tea, and said, "Greetings, Mother. May I ask why you have summoned your daughter-in-law here?"
Geng glanced at Wu Kuzha and said slowly, "The Prince He's mansion has few heirs. I told you to take good care of yourself and serve Hongzhou well so that the mansion could have another son. But so much time has passed and there is still no sign of pregnancy in your belly."
Before Wu Kuzha could speak, Geng Shi, disregarding Wu Kuzha's sorrowful expression, continued, "You are so jealous, lacking even a trace of the magnanimity of a mistress of the house. Hong Zhou has never even stepped into the other courtyards in the backyard."
She glanced at Qiu Yun, who was standing to the side with her head down, and continued, "Even when I asked Qiu Yun to deliver some flowers to Hong Zhou, he chased her away."
Upon hearing Geng's words, Wu Kuzha felt very sad, but she dared not refute them and could only cautiously say, "Perhaps Hongzhou doesn't like these flowers."
