Chapter 213: Being Caught

After Chunxi packed up her things, she saw Shen Chuwei standing still, so she walked over and asked in a low voice, "My lady, what are you doing?"

Shen Chuwei stared at the carriage in front of him and replied, "I'm thinking about life."

Chunxi looked confused, thinking about life?

How to think about life properly?

She suddenly realized, "Did His Highness bully the young lady?"

Shen Chuwei paused when he heard this, then nodded vigorously. It was more than just bullying, it was clearly severe bullying.

Xiao Jinyan had planned to leave Yongqian City this afternoon and sleep in the carriage at night, so he asked to borrow it for tonight last night.

You are so good at calculating!

Chunxi saw this and couldn't help but feel distressed, "Your Highness is really a fool. How can a man bully a woman? The young lady is so delicate and weak. What if she gets hurt by bullying?"

Shen Chuwei nodded in agreement and said, “My body is still very sore now!”

There's something wrong with the way I walk.

Xiao Jinyan came over and saw the master and servant talking to each other. He said in a deep voice, "It's time to get on the carriage."

Suddenly hearing Xiao Jinyan's voice, Shen Chuwei replied with a guilty "Oh."

Then he stepped behind Xiao Jinyan and followed him into the carriage.

Chunxi looked at Xiao Jinyan and made a face, "You only know how to bully my young mistress. Next time you come to Hehuan Palace to eat, I won't put salt in the food!"

Qin Xiao came over and heard Chunxi mumbling. He nudged Chunxi with his elbow and said, "Little brother, what are you mumbling about?"

Qin Xiao is a martial artist, and Chunxi is a delicate little maid. How could she bear such a push from Qin Xiao? She immediately covered her arm in pain, raised her head and looked at Qin Xiao with a guilty conscience, "It's nothing, nothing."

Qin Xiao said, "I just clearly heard you say no salt. Can we eat food without salt?"

Chunxi couldn't help but roll her eyes at Qin Xiao. He had heard it all, but he still asked. She raised her chin and refused to admit it. "You must have heard it wrongly. That's why I didn't say it."

Qin Xiao pinched Chunxi's thin arms and legs, and said with a click of the tongue, "How old are you and Brother Shen? Why are you so delicate?"

"How can you just pinch someone's arm? You hooligan!" Chunxi's face turned red and he ran away angrily.

Qin Xiao glanced at his hand. "It was just a pinch. How can a boy act so effeminate? And a hooligan? How did I act like a hooligan?"

Wei Chi walked over and patted Qin Xiao's shoulder. "What are you talking about, you grown man? You are such a sissy. Let's go!"

Wei Chi said this and strode away.

Qin Xiao was left alone in the wind, "What's wrong with my mother?"

When they reached the carriage, Xiao Jinyan turned his head to look at Shen Chuwei and stretched out his hand to her, "You go first."

Shen Chu was stunned for a moment, looking at the hand in front of him with flattery, the knuckles were long and clean, without a speck of dust.

But after two nights of sleeping with him, the yellow waste in her mind always made her think of some scenes that she shouldn't think of.

She held that hand and felt another hand on her waist, holding her tightly and lifting her into the carriage.

Shen Chuwei was really light, and Xiao Jinyan lifted her up with almost no effort, reminding her, "Be careful, or you might fall down."

Shen Chuwei turned around and glanced at Xiao Jinyan. Looking at his handsome face, she always felt that there was a bit of arrogance in it.

Xiao Jinyan said, "What are you looking at? Go in first."

"Oh." Shen Chuwei withdrew his gaze guiltily and crouched into the carriage.

Xiao Jinyan got on the carriage swiftly.

The group returned to the capital in a mighty manner.

In the carriage

Shen Chuwei took out the cakes she bought yesterday and placed them on the low table one by one.

Xiao Jinyan saw it, tea and pastries. He opened the drawer and took out the tea set inside, first boiled a pot of hot water, and then made tea.

Although Xiao Jinyan was always served by someone and was never asked to make tea, he knew how to make tea.

Shen Chuwei loves drinking tea, but she is not good at making it, so Chunxi always makes the tea and puts it in front of her.

She watched Xiao Jinyan brewing tea, which was elegant, noble, kind and pleasing to the eye.

If it were her, she would probably be like the beef drink that Xiao Jinyan mentioned, without any elegance or nobility.

It was exactly three quarters after 3 p.m. Shen Chuwei was already hungry. She picked up a piece of tea cake and was about to put it to her mouth when she saw Xiao Jinyan sitting opposite her. Thinking that he was the Crown Prince, she refrained from eating and passed the tea cake to him.

In her still hoarse voice, she asked, "Your Highness, would you like some tea cake?"

Xiao Jinyan brewed the tea and looked at the tea cake in her hand, "Try a little."

He took the tea cake from Shen Chuwei's hand, brought it to his mouth and took a bite. The texture was somewhat similar to osmanthus cake, but the taste was different.

When Shen Chuwei saw him eating it, she picked up a piece and put it to her mouth and took a bite. It was a little sweet, but the taste was good.

She ate three pieces in a row and was about to reach for the fourth piece when Xiao Jinyan stopped her, "Eat less sweets and drink more tea."

As they were talking, a cup of tea was handed over.

The Crown Prince had spoken, and Shen Chuwei certainly didn't dare to disobey, and she happened to be a little thirsty at the moment.

She took the teacup from his hand, brought it to her mouth and took a sip, which just quenched her thirst.

Xiao Jinyan asked: "Do you still like it?"

Shen Chuwei doesn’t know much about tea, but from a drinking perspective, “It tastes pretty good.”

Xiao Jinyan nodded and picked up the teapot. Seeing this, Shen Chuwei hurriedly passed the teacup over.

The boiling tea was poured into the teacup. Even though it was such a small cup, not a single drop of tea was spilled, which was enough to show how good his skills were.

Shen Chuwei brought it to his lips and drank it in one gulp.

When Xiao Jinyan saw Zhenzheng, he said, "Take your time to savor it."

"I'm thirsty." Shen Chuwei put down the teacup, picked up a piece of date mud cake, put it into her mouth and took a bite.

Xiao Jinyan reminded: "You still need to be careful in front of outsiders."

"I won't show up in public, so outsiders can't see me." After Shen Chuwei said this, she stuffed half of the date mud cake in her hand into her mouth and started eating.

Xiao Jinyan had a headache when he saw this. "You will accompany me to various important events in the future. How can you not show up?"

Shen Chuwei puffed up her cheeks and replied, "Why not let the Crown Princess go in the future? I am a concubine and don't need to attend such an important occasion."

There will definitely be a Crown Princess in the future, and it will be Chang Liangdi if nothing unexpected happens. When attending important occasions, it will never be my turn no matter what.

This was the second time that Xiao Jinyan heard Shen Chuwei push him to another woman. Last time, she asked him to choose someone else, but this time, she directly asked him to bring another woman to attend an important occasion.

"You want me to take someone else with you?"

"I am a concubine, it is not appropriate." Shen Chu said in a low voice.

Xiao Jinyan nodded thoughtfully, "Well, I understand. Next time there is a banquet, I will take others there."

When Shen Chuwei heard about the banquet, she swallowed the jujube mud cake in her mouth and said, "Your Highness, I am still qualified to attend the banquet. No one is more suitable than me."

"You are the concubine, it is not appropriate." Xiao Jinyan picked up the teacup and drank slowly, but snorted in his heart. When he heard about food, he was more enthusiastic than anyone else.
