Chapter 50 A Strong Sense of Crisis
No one cared about Concubine Li, she could only find a seat and sit down quietly.
She watched the prince and Xiao Liang Di flirting with each other, and the sour feeling in her heart could not help but surge up.
She originally thought she had let it go.
It doesn’t matter even if the prince summons other women to sleep with him, because all women have the same status in the prince’s heart.
But it was not until now, when she saw with her own eyes how the prince and Xiao Liangdi got along, that she suddenly realized that the prince's attitude towards Xiao Liangdi was completely different from his attitude towards other women.
The prince was always cold when facing other concubines and was unwilling to say even a word.
Now that he is with Xiao Xixi, he will indulge her in some harmless jokes, tolerate her little willfulness, and even take the initiative to seek her opinion.
This is definitely not a good sign.
Concubine Li felt a strong sense of crisis.
She even forgot the purpose of her trip. Her mind was now filled with thoughts on how to divert the prince's attention away from Xiao Liangdi.
She could no longer allow the relationship between the Crown Prince and Xiao Liangdi to continue.
She must find a way to stop it!
The palace maids brought the dishes to the table one by one.
Since the dishes are cooked in the small kitchen, they are not as exquisite as those in the imperial kitchen. They are just simple home-cooked dishes, and most of the ingredients come from the vegetable garden behind Qingge Palace.
Concubine Li looked at the dishes in front of her and frowned slightly: "Xiao Liang Di, are you going to give these to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"
Xiao Xixi asked in confusion: "What's wrong with these dishes?"
"There are rules in the palace. The Crown Prince's lunch must have at least 20 dishes, including 12 hot dishes, 4 cold dishes, 2 hot soups, and 2 desserts. Look at your dishes. There are only 8 dishes in total, and there is only one soup. The rest are hot dishes. Where are the cold dishes and desserts? It is your honor that the Crown Prince has come to your place to dine. How can you neglect the Crown Prince like this? Even if you are spoiled, you would not do this. You are really too much. You have no rules at all!"
Concubine Li was very angry and looked at Xiao Xixi with condemnation in her eyes.
Xiao Xixi ignored her and turned to look at the prince, sighing in a tone full of envy and jealousy.
"Your Highness, you can eat twenty dishes for lunch every time? What kind of heavenly life are you living?"
Concubine Li sneered: "Don't think you can get away with it by changing the subject. You must give the Crown Prince an explanation for this lunch!"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "If you don't like the food here, you can leave."
Concubine Li’s sneer froze on her face.
Her eyes immediately turned red, and she complained aggrievedly: "Your Highness, I am speaking up for you, why are you still saying this to me?"
Luo Qinghan: "It's my freedom to eat whatever I want, I don't need others to tell me what to do."
This time, Concubine Li could no longer bear it and burst into tears.
She wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief and choked up.
"Your Highness, I was wrong. I didn't mean to tell you what to do. I just said those things because I cared too much about you. Please don't be angry with me, okay?"
Luo Qinghan looked at her crying and aggrieved appearance, then looked at the food in front of him, and the irritability that had been suppressed with great difficulty surged up again.
He just wanted to find a place to have a quiet meal, why couldn't even this wish be fulfilled?
Can't these people just be more quiet?!
He looked at Concubine Li coldly with an icy tone.
"Since you think these dishes are too little, then you must eat all of them now. Don't leave a single bite."
The money will be in my pocket soon~
