Chapter 977 Determined to Win
As soon as Chu Jian left, Luo Qinghan arrived at Yunxiu Palace, and Fang Wujiu came with him.
Fang Wujiu is here to act as an interpreter.
He had learned the language of the Thousand Islands and was able to solve the communication problems between the people in the palace and the third princess.
Xiao Xixi was very curious: "It's ok that Senior Brother knows the Southern Yue language, but how come you can even speak the Thousand Island language? Don't you think you have too many skills?"
Fang Wujiu smiled slightly and answered calmly.
"When I was bored in the sect, I could only read books to pass the time. The more books I read, the more I knew. Besides, it's always good to learn more. Who knows, it might be useful someday."
Luo Qinghan agreed with this and asked, "Is the language of the Thousand Islands easy to learn?"
Fang Wujiu: "It's actually very simple. Your Majesty, do you want to learn it?"
Luo Qinghan nodded.
Fang Wujiu started a foreign language teaching course on the spot.
Luo Qinghan listened very seriously.
He has a photographic memory and learns very quickly.
Xiao Xixi felt drowsy after listening to this.
When Fang Wujiu and Luo Qinghan finished a class, they looked back and found Xixi had fallen asleep on the table.
Luo Qinghan was just about to ask her to go back to the room to sleep when Baoqin came in and asked in a low voice.
"Dinner is ready. Would you like to eat now?"
Xixi, who was originally dozing off, immediately pricked up her ears when she heard the word "dinner".
She sat up straight and asked while rubbing her eyes.
"Is it time to eat?"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
Dozing off in class and being the first person to eat.
You are really good!
Luo Qinghan stretched out his right hand, helped her push the hair on her cheek behind her ear, and spoke softly.
"Go wash your face, then go eat."
At this time, Zhezhi, who was standing at the door, reminded him.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Third Princess is here."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yimei walked in quickly.
After Yi Mei entered the room, her eyes immediately fixed on the emperor, and a sweet smile appeared on her rosy little face.
She called out joyfully, "Your Majesty!"
For Luo Qinghan, he doesn't bother to pay attention to anyone he doesn't care about.
Yimei happens to be within this range of carelessness.
He didn't even look at Yimei, but picked up the orange next to him and peeled it slowly while watching Xixi wash her face.
After Xixi finished washing her face, he handed her the peeled orange.
Xixi happily took the orange, ate half herself, and gave the other half to Luo Qinghan.
Delicious food should be shared with the ones you love!
Yimei was completely ignored.
This made her very angry.
But this also aroused her competitive spirit.
When she was in the Thousand Islands, all the noble sons flocked to her. As long as she beckoned her finger, those young talents would flock to her and let her command them.
She was used to a life of being the center of attention, but at the same time, she felt bored with the admiration that came too easily.
A man like the Emperor of Dasheng, who was aloof and indifferent, made her feel more exciting and attractive.
Yimei raised her chin, a determined light appearing in her eyes.
The more this man disregards her, the more she wants to take him down!
Xiao Xixi finished eating the orange and then noticed Yi Mei standing next to her.
She smiled and asked, "Princess, will you go back to your room to eat, or will you eat with us?"
Yimei answered quickly without thinking.
"What's the point of eating alone? I want to eat with you!"
Fang Wujiu helped translate this sentence into Dasheng Mandarin.
Xiao Xixi also invited her senior brother to stay and have dinner together.
So there were two more people at dinner today.
Four people sat around the table.
Xiao Xixi ate with gusto as usual.
When it comes to delicious food, she never takes it perfunctorily and always treats it with the most serious attitude.
While eating, she shared the delicious food with Luo Qinghan and her senior brother.
The three of them get along very well and look like a real family.
This made Yimei feel as if she was being excluded invisibly.
She was a little unhappy.
When she saw the imperial concubine constantly picking up food for the emperor, she immediately picked up her chopsticks, added a piece of fish to the emperor's bowl, and said with a sweet smile.
"Your Majesty, try this fish. It's very tender."
Luo Qinghan paused.
His face darkened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into a very difficult to describe color.
If I had to describe it, it would probably be colorful black.
Fang Wujiu translated the Third Princess' words without changing his expression.
Luo Qinghan put the chopsticks heavily on the table and said in a cold voice.
"Change the bowl for me."
Baoqin quickly took away the bowl in front of the emperor and replaced it with a clean new one.
The smile on Yimei's face suddenly disappeared.
The emperor's reaction was like a slap in the face, making her feel hot and extremely embarrassed.
She could even feel that everyone around her was laughing at her.
She had never suffered such injustice since she was a child, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.
She bit her lower lip, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes, and asked pitifully.
"Your Majesty, do you really dislike me?"
Fang Wujiu was about to translate when Luo Qinghan said coldly, "I understand this sentence."
Fang Wujiu had no choice but to shut up and continue watching the show quietly.
If it were a normal man, seeing a little beauty showing this kind of expression, he would definitely slow down his voice and comfort her, and at the very least he would maintain the most basic demeanor as a man.
It’s a pity that she is facing Luo Qinghan, a big pig’s hoof.
The big pig's hoof has neither feelings nor manners.
He asked back expressionlessly.
"Isn't this obvious?"
He spoke in the Thousand Islands language that he had just learned, with clear pronunciation and accurate articulation.
At the same time, the lethality is multiplied.
Yi Mei was stunned on the spot.
A pair of beautiful eyes slowly widened, and an expression of disbelief appeared on her small and pretty face.
Luo Qinghan’s output has not yet ended.
He looked at Yi Mei and spoke coldly, this time using Dasheng Mandarin.
"Do you know how dirty your chopsticks are? How dare you stick them into my bowl? Are you trying to disgust me on purpose?"
This was the first time he looked at Yi Mei directly tonight, but there was no warmth in his eyes, only criticism and disgust.
Fang Wujiu helped with the translation dutifully.
Words like "dirty" and "disgusting" were also translated into the Chishio dialect verbatim by him without using any modifying words.
After all, Yimei was only a sixteen-year-old girl who had not yet experienced the harshness of society. Facing the emperor's undisguised disgust, she could no longer bear it, her emotions broke down on the spot, and she burst into tears.
However, instead of being comforted by Luo Qinghan, her tears made the disgust in his eyes even stronger.
