Chapter 240: Poor Xiao Jinyan, Concubine Xu is here to snatch her away
Shen Chu's face turned red, and her beautiful starry eyes were full of shyness.
Xiao Jinyan saw it and couldn't help but reach out to grab her wrist and bring her into his arms.
Shen Chuwei really didn't expect that an injured person would suddenly attack, and she was caught off guard and was hit in the chest.
She raised her little face and looked at Xiao Jinyan in confusion, "Your Highness?"
Xiao Jinyan whispered in her ear: "I just took off my outer pants, why are you blushing, Xiaojiu?"
Shen Chuwei touched her face and it was hot. Even though she couldn't see it, she could guess that it was red.
She said confidently: "I am just being shy, it's a normal reaction for a girl."
Xiao Jinyan laughed softly: "But we are already husband and wife."
Husband and wife
The two of them were too close, and Shen Chuwei's face was flushed.
Xiao Jinyan saw Shen Chuwei's ears turn red, and said lightly: "Xiao Jiu, continue."
Shen Chuwei finally figured out that Xiao Jinyan did it on purpose.
Things keep turning around, and now it’s my turn.
Shen Chuwei made up his mind and continued the task that he had just unfinished.
The task was arduous and I completed it with a red face throughout.
When it was done, my face was as red as a cooked shrimp.
Xiao Jinyan was naturally not in a better situation either. He had originally been trying to amuse Xiaojiu, but in the end he was the one who suffered.
After taking a bath, Shen Chuwei wanted to go back to the Hehuan Palace next door to sleep. She was aware of her sleeping posture and it was easy for her to accidentally hurt her bed partner.
Xiao Jinyan naturally disagreed.
"I am injured. Shouldn't you be my personal attendant?"
"You are the prince, you have the final say."
Shen Chuwei climbed onto the bed, lifted the quilt and lay down, then moved her body to keep a safe distance from Xiao Jinyan.
Xiao Jinyan looked sideways at her.
Shen Chuwei explained: "Your Highness is injured, so it's better to be careful."
Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Yeah."
The next day, Shen Chuwei woke up and found herself hugging Xiao Jinyan's arm. Xiao Jinyan's slightly hoarse voice came from above her head, "Are you awake?"
Shen Chuwei raised her little face and smiled: "Your Highness, good morning."
Xiao Jinyan asked: "Did you sleep well last night?"
"I slept well." Shen Chuwei has always had a good sleep, the kind that wouldn't wake up even if there was a thunder in the middle of the night.
Xiao Jinyan: "I slept well... too."
The fact is that as long as the injury is not on the right side, there is no problem for two people to sleep in the same bed.
After Shen Chuwei got up, Xiao Jinyan silently withdrew his arm. He hadn't moved for the whole night and his whole arm was numb.
At breakfast, Shen Chuwei was placed in front of various breakfasts.
There was only a bowl of porridge in front of Xiao Jinyan, without even any side dishes.
Xiao Jinyan didn't mind, because he just drank some porridge and ate some breakfast every day.
However, when he looked up and saw Shen Chuwei eating a snack, his casual thought was forgotten.
Buns, dumplings and so on, they look and taste good.
"Xiaojiu, I want to eat meat buns."
Shen Chuwei had a bun in her mouth and spoke incoherently, "Your Highness, the meat buns are too greasy, you can't eat them."
Xiao Jinyan settled for the next best thing, "I only want to eat one dumpling."
"No, dumplings are fried food, you can't eat them."
As Shen Chuwei spoke, she picked up the snacks on the plate in front of her and continued eating at the table with her back to him.
Xiao Jinyan glanced at Shen Chuwei's back, then lowered his head to look at the porridge in front of him and could only look forward to lunch.
Lunch time
The palace maids had their lunch one after another.
Shen Chuwei looked at the delicious food in front of her, her appetite was aroused, she picked up the chopsticks, thought for a moment, raised her head and looked at Xiao Jinyan at the next table, and found that he was looking at her, her eyebrows curved: "Your Highness, let's eat."
In front of Xiao Jinyan was a bowl of rice, three dishes and a soup, but the food lacked color, aroma and taste. He lost his appetite at the sight of it.
He looked at Shen Chuwei at the next table. The dishes in front of her were all delicious and tasty.
“Why do we eat at separate tables?”
Shen Chuwei said confidently: "Even though Your Highness is an adult, there are times when he can't control himself. If we eat separately, there won't be such trouble."
Xiao Jinyan: “…”
Liu Xi, who was standing by and serving, secretly wiped a cold sweat. Shen Liangdi was becoming more and more daring, and she actually treated His Highness like this.
Xiao Jinyan glanced at Liu Xi, "..." You are not brave enough? She said to separate them and eat them separately?
Shen Chuwei suggested that Liu Xi instruct the maid to clearly divide the work~
Concubine Xu came to the Hehuan Palace, but didn't see Shen Chuwei. After asking Little Rabbit, she found out that Shen Chuwei was in the next bedroom.
This went on for three days in a row. Concubine Xu could no longer sit still and walked into the prince's bedroom, waving her handkerchief.
As soon as she came in, she saw Shen Chuwei feeding Xiao Jinyan a piece of cake. She didn't see clearly what kind of cake it was, but she saw clearly that Xiao Jinyan called Shen Chuwei.
Shen Chuwei was eating the cake herself. Thinking that Xiao Jinyan didn't eat much for lunch, she fed him a bite of cake and asked casually, "Your Highness, how does it taste?"
Xiao Jinyan chewed slowly and nodded, "Not bad."
Concubine Xu waved her handkerchief, took a few steps forward and bowed, "May your highness be blessed with good health."
Xiao Jinyan raised his eyes and glanced at Concubine Xu, his voice cold and distant: "Concubine Xu, what's the matter?"
Concubine Xu replied, "I heard that His Highness was injured, so I came to see him."
But in his heart he was complaining that there were so many people serving in the bedroom, but he still wanted Shen Chuwei to serve him personally, which was too much of an insult.
Xiao Jinyan: “…”
Shen Chuwei looked at the cake Xiao Jinyan had left in her hand and passed it to Xiao Jinyan again, "Your Highness."
Xiao Jinyan opened his mouth and took the remaining cake into his mouth. He chewed it twice, but before he could swallow it, he heard Concubine Xu complaining,
You need someone to feed you even to eat a piece of cake. You are not a child anymore.
Xiao Jinyan: “…” Could you please just get out of here quickly?
Shen Chuwei was eating mung bean cake, and raised her eyes to ask Concubine Xu, "Concubine Xu, do you want some cakes?"
"Okay." Xu Cefei took two steps forward, picked up a piece of mung bean cake, put it into her mouth and took a bite. There were sesame seeds inside and the sweetness was just right.
"It's delicious." After saying that, he stuffed the remaining half of the mung bean cake into his mouth.
"I asked Chunxi to make it specially." Shen Chuwei was a little proud. Chunxi made it according to her taste, so of course it was delicious.
Concubine Xu picked up another piece of mung bean cake and looked up at Xiao Jinyan, who didn't look injured. "Your Highness, are you okay?"
Xiao Jinyan said calmly: "Concubine Xu is thoughtful. This palace has no problem with that."
Xu Cefei snorted in her heart. Even though everything was fine, he was still occupying Shen Chuwei. She also needed freedom and her own space!
The need for freedom and space is something she learned from the novel, and she was able to apply what she learned in practice, which shows that Concubine Xu was quite smart.
Xiao Jinyan's face darkened and he turned to look at Shen Chuwei, who was eating mung bean cake with great relish.
"Shen Liangdi, accompany me for a walk."
"Okay." Shen Chuwei stood up with a piece of mung bean cake in one hand.
Xiao Jinyan: "..." I can never forget to eat~
Seeing this, Concubine Xu curled her lips in dissatisfaction. Isn't it just going out for a walk? What is Liu Xi doing? Is it for show?
