It's another sticky and sweet morning.
Qiao Luoluo called for water four times last night and couldn’t get out of bed again today.
Li Xiao got up early and cooked a delicious meal for her himself.
He scented her clothes, folded them, and gave her a kiss on the ear.
"hiss……"
Qiao Luoluo was so excited that half of his body felt numb in his sleep.
She moaned and turned her head to sleep. Li Xiao gently patted her little butt.
He whispered, "I'm going to court, Luoluo, sleep well."
"Uh... yeah."
Qiao Luoluo agreed in a daze and ignored him.
Li Xiao stood up, smiling tenderly, left the bedroom and closed the door carefully, fearing that Qiao Luoluo would be blown by the wind.
The moment the door closed, his smile disappeared and his frowning brows instantly returned to normal.
His temperament returned to being gloomy and cold.
He glanced at the two servants guarding outside, and they nodded almost imperceptibly.
These two maids are his people.
They were originally the two most inconspicuous maids brought by Qiao Luoluo, and were replaced by Li Xiao using his own people.
He admitted that he fell in love with Qiao Luoluo at first sight.
After getting in touch with her, he inevitably fell in love with her.
Get married, spend the bridal chamber, and spend every day in love.
Li Xiao had to admit that he had already been moved.
But he was still able to control his heart and not sink completely into it.
He was wary of Qiao Luoluo and even more cautious towards the emperor.
For the ministers in this world, it is easy to seek merit but difficult to succeed; it is easy to succeed but difficult to maintain it; it is easy to maintain it but difficult to achieve it to the end.
If the emperor's suspicion cannot be dispelled, then the Li family will be doomed if there is any mistake.
He would never hurt Qiao Luoluo, but he had to be on guard.
After all, she is the emperor's biological sister.
His instructions to the two maids were, first, to keep the princess safe.
Second, monitor her every move.
If the two conflict, the first point is always the most important.
Li Xiao never thought that he would be able to touch a woman again in his life.
I never thought about which woman I would truly fall in love with.
Of course, he could never express all his feelings to anyone.
If one day, Qiao Luoluo chooses to betray him, he will accept it calmly.
After all, he had nothing.
Being able to receive her favor and have a love affair with her is already an unexpected gift from God.
Why would he ask for more?
Qiao Luoluo slept until noon before waking up slowly. Suisui helped her get up, wash, and put on makeup.
A little maid came in and said, "Princess, Princess Yueping is outside asking to see you."
Qiao Luoluo was stunned and searched his memory for this person's information.
Oh, she is her father’s half-sister.
My father was not favored by my grandfather, the emperor, and was sent to be raised by a noble concubine.
That noble concubine had a biological princess, Princess Yueping.
Now that he had a son, he was overjoyed and wanted to make a fortune overnight.
But in the end, he killed himself.
On the surface, the emperor called her mother, but in fact he hated this woman for being so clever. She ruined his entire plan and almost made it impossible for him to succeed to the throne.
We have done our best to let this aunt have a grand wedding.
For so many years, she has not come to harass Qiao Luoluo and his sister, so she can be considered to have kept out of other people's way.
Why are you here again today to be a conspicuous bag?
Qiao Luoluo thought about it and understood that this aunt and the empress dowager had a very good relationship, like two real sisters.
Today, I am afraid that the person who comes has bad intentions.
After washing up, Qiao Luoluo stood up and walked towards the front hall.
As soon as I left Li Xiao's residence, I ran into Aunt Yueping, who was walking towards me with her mother-in-law, chatting and laughing.
Normally, outsiders should only be met in the front hall, and they are absolutely not allowed to enter the inner house without the host's invitation.
This is the most basic etiquette when visiting someone's home.
Princess Yueping knowingly and deliberately trespassed, wasn't she just here to provoke?
Then, she doesn't need to be polite.
Qiao Luoluo greeted her with a smile, bowed gracefully, and said, "Auntie, I hope you are well. I heard that you have been busy with the affairs of several cousins recently.
You couldn't even excuse yourself from attending my wedding, so how come you have time to visit Luo Luo today?"
She knew that her aunt's two sons had been restless recently and had allowed horse dealers to cross the border illegally.
This is a crime that could result in a long jail term, and my aunt's family is worried about it.
That's why I said something to taunt her.
The poor mother-in-law stood aside, pouting awkwardly, shaking her head and squinting at Qiao Luoluo.
What that means is: I didn't bring her here, she just barged in on her own! I, your mother-in-law, am being unfairly accused!
Qiao Luoluo blinked at her and said: O, don't be afraid, I'll protect you!
When the eldest princess heard Qiao Luoluo's words with a hint of sarcasm, she smiled with sarcasm in her eyes, but did not show it on her face.
"I missed my niece's wedding, so I came here today to make amends and bring gifts. It's been so hot on the way here, I'm thirsty. Come on, pour me a cup of tea."
As he said that, he was about to rush into Li Xiao and the others' bedroom again.
My mother-in-law was carried by her like a chicken and had no power to resist.
Qiao Luoluo quickly stopped her, "Aunt, please wait. How can we go to the inner house to have tea? Why don't you go to the front hall and sit for a while? Your niece will serve you tea personally."
The princess sneered, "The prince has already gone to court, Anhua, don't worry too much, right? I'm your aunt, what's wrong with talking to you about personal matters? Don't be so stingy."
