The east wing wasn't small, but it was a bit too small for the Crown Prince and Crown Princess to dine together.
In the middle was a table that was three feet and six inches wide and six feet long. It was just wide enough for a person to pass through on both sides. The eunuchs and palace maids could hardly move around while serving there.
The Crown Prince sat on the north side, and the Crown Princess sat on the south side.
It was dark, but a bright light was lit to the north, illuminating the Crown Prince's face and making him look extremely handsome.
Huan Yue sat here, with his back to the window.
The window was closed, and all that could be heard was the sound of rain outside and her eating.
She can't do it without making a sound at all; there will be subtle noises.
Although even a dog-like man can look good while eating, Huan Yue's eyes are always on the food.
Two tables this big, filled with delicious food, enough to eat to your heart's content.
Huan Yue was most satisfied with the perfect distance between the two sides, so he didn't have to worry about having food served to him. The two eunuchs were there serving him food that he liked, so wouldn't it taste even better?
Two palace maids served him food, and Huan Yue ate with great relish.
Xie Zhou was full, but seeing that she was still eating, he didn't stop either, and ate slowly.
The steward watched attentively; His Highness and His Highness were quite a warm and loving couple.
To be honest, Your Highness has been alone in the Eastern Palace since childhood, and it must have been lonely. If you had a close friend to accompany you, it wouldn't be so difficult.
The maternal family is, after all, the maternal family; the Di family is cautious and never oversteps the bounds of the relationship between ruler and subject.
There are some things that even an uncle can't do for you.
The Empress is also clever. Although she doesn't seem to show concern for His Highness, there are many kinds of companionship. Compared to insincere affection that is annoying, this kind of warmth is more touching.
However, the thought of the approaching great-aunt made the steward feel somewhat annoyed.
Although many people were waiting to see what would happen, the Imperial Kitchen Master stood on the Prince's side.
Huan Yue finally put down his chopsticks.
Xie Zhou also put down his chopsticks and said to her, "You are the Crown Princess, you can do whatever you want."
Huan Yue watched him as palace maids helped him wash his hands.
Xie Zhou was not idle either, and he did these things with elegance and domineering presence, a born crown prince and future ruler of the world.
But look how bright her eyes are, brighter than any lamp.
Do you feel like you're saving on lights at night?
Huan Yue had only ever heard that men were easier to talk to after sex, but never that they were easy to talk to after sex. This kind of "eating" is not the same as that kind of "eating".
If she understood correctly, the scoundrel was alluding to his attitude towards his cousin.
However, she only steps up when needed and is completely forgotten when not needed; there's nothing to be proud of.
Don't assume that men's words are law and that they're more decisive than anyone else in changing them.
Besides, she's probably not the ideal woman; neither she nor her cousin can compare to a single hair of the ideal woman.
So it didn't matter how much she and her cousin argued, which also shows how ruthless he was to his cousin.
Although that Di Baose was a complicated character.
The Di family had no objections and continued to support their nephew as always.
It seems that even the fake heiress doesn't qualify as a supporting female character; she's actually a stand-in.
Di Baose is the truly vicious female supporting character. She fought with her stand-in for many years and also fought with her white moonlight.
How can a villainous female supporting character possibly defeat the ideal woman? Therefore, her fate won't be much better than that of her stand-in.
Di Baose even got pregnant with five children, and three of them, while being cared for, seemed to fall behind as she walked down the street.
After the fake heiress died, Di Baose wanted to establish an empress, but the true love of the woman won out.
Di Baose wanted her son to become the crown prince, but her white moonlight soon gave birth to a son.
Thus, Di Baose did everything she could to fully express the feelings between the male and female protagonists, until she burned herself out and her tears finally dried.
Huan Yue thought to himself, the fake heiress's role is to pave the way, while his cousin is the one who deserves to be the villainous supporting character.
Think of Di Baose as pitiful yet hateful, laughable yet tragic.
Xie Zhou frowned as he thought of Di Baose.
She is a major obstacle to his relationship with the Di family, and it benefits no one.
Xie Zhou stood up and said to his wife, "Di Baose was supposed to enter the palace in a month. If you don't want to get involved, you can leave her alone for now."
Huan Yue, go! I don't care!
As for whether Di Baose will look for her? Di Baose herself made a fuss about hurrying to the palace, which means she was looking for her.
Di Baose is a truly vibrant and vicious supporting character, causing trouble from beginning to end.
This kind of villain relies on his cousin and the Di family.
Therefore, a fake like Huan Yue would definitely not win against him.
In the book, the fake heiress seems to have the upper hand, but it's actually the true love who wins behind the scenes; she's just a substitute.
Xie Zhou gave her a deep look. With that kind of strength, could Di Baose's few dozen kilograms be enough for her to lift?
Therefore, Xie Zhou was not worried that she, who had never lost in her previous life, would lose; she was simply expressing an attitude, which was also for everyone to see.
Rather than getting caught up in confusion and ultimately harming yourself and others, it's better to be clear from the start.
Everyone in the Eastern Palace and the Di family should know that he truly dislikes Di Baose.
If they liked her, the Di family would have already arranged for Di Baose to become the Crown Princess.
Xie Zhou arrived at Lizheng Hall.
Di Chang probably knew that he had eaten with the Crown Princess again.
It's a good thing that the couple has a good relationship.
Xie Zhou looked at his uncle in a daze.
His uncle and aunt had three sons and no concubines. His uncle also had two servants, and his aunt treated them well.
Xie Zhou was influenced by his uncle and thought he had a confidant, but it turned out that he could know a person's face but not their heart.
Di Shan jumped up and complained hastily, "Di Baose is going to cause a huge uproar at home."
I heard that the Crown Princess made such a big fuss, so she'll have to make an even bigger one.
For example, if the Pei family is in trouble, she can take advantage of the situation and kick them while they're down.
Xie Zhou knew her too well, and said to his uncle very seriously, "We are us."
Di Chang replied solemnly, "I understand. Once I enter the Eastern Palace, I will no longer be a young lady of the Di family."
This is a very simple principle.
But some people just don't understand.
Di Shan wasn't a resentful person; it was just that Di Baose was making a scene: "My aunt kept making a fuss and didn't know how to persuade her."
