When Simuqiao arrived at the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, he discovered that the dog tyrant was not there.
He went to court and has not returned yet.
Si Muqiao immediately said: "..."
She was inexplicably angry.
Since the dog tyrant was busy attending court, why did he let Guo Fu bring her over so early?
Wouldn't it be nice to let her sleep a little longer?
Angry!
Fortunately, this was not the first or second time he came to the Yangxin Palace. After Si Muqiao secretly complained about Murong Qingli a few words, he found a place to sit down and rest.
But after sitting down and resting with his eyes closed for a few minutes, Si Muqiao opened his eyes again.
She was so hungry that she couldn't sleep.
He got up and went to find Guo Fu, asking him to bring some food to eat.
After finishing, Si Muqiao sat aside and found paper and pen to practice calligraphy.
This training lasted for almost half an hour.
She had just put away the papers on which she had practiced calligraphy and started drinking a cup of tea.
Then a eunuch was heard to report: "Your Majesty has arrived."
She quickly raised her head and drank two sips of tea before she stood up and knelt to salute.
I have to say, it’s really annoying to have to kneel down and salute every time I see the dog tyrant.
She must find an opportunity and a reason to ask the dog tyrant to exempt her from kneeling every time they meet in the future.
But what kind of reason or opportunity would be more appropriate?
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"Miss Si, you came here quite early. Are you so eager to perform?"
[Fuck you, you created this! ]
【You are a scumbag! 】
"Your Majesty, yes."
Although Si Muqiao cursed in his heart, he still looked submissive on the surface.
"~~~" Murong Qingli heard the long-lost voice of his heart.
Well, he wasn't angry at all, and even felt some indescribable nostalgia?
Is he possessed by a demon?
Not only did he like eavesdropping on Lady Si's inner thoughts, but he even found the sound of her scolding him so pleasing to the ear?
"Have breakfast with me first."
"Yes!" Si Muqiao's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this.
[Wow, that's great, the dog tyrant is a human today! ]
"Are you so happy to have dinner with me?"
"Your Majesty, that's natural! Man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. If you don't eat for a meal, you will be hungry."
"Of course I am happy to have dinner with Your Majesty!"
Looking at the tiny light in Si Muqiao's eyes, Murong Qingli couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his lips.
Soon, young eunuchs brought breakfast to the table.
Si Muqiao looked at the various side dishes and staple foods in front of him, picked up the bowl and started to serve himself.
According to the rules, she first served Murong Qingli a bowl and handed it to him.
Then, it was her turn to express herself.
The lotus leaf cakes on the table still exude a faint lotus leaf fragrance.
Put some fat but not greasy steamed pork with rice flour and a piece of green leaf in it, it is very fragrant.
During this process, Si Muqiao did not forget to use chopsticks to pick up some side dishes from time to time to relieve the greasiness.
Spicy and sour diced radish, shredded cucumber, stir-fried rapeseed, green beans and corn kernels...
Almond tofu, boiled crystal meatballs, fried pigeon eggs, fried spring rolls, steamed ham...
She ate seriously and sweetly. Although her movements were fast and not as elegant and polite as Murong Qingli's, they were not ugly either.
After eating the lotus leaf cake, she ate a basket of soup dumplings, a pancake and two bowls of porridge in one go.
The moment he put down the bowl, Simuqiao successfully saw astonishment in the eyes of Murong Qingli and Guo Fu who was standing behind him serving him.
Uh, what's that look?
Do you dislike her eating too much?
Who made her hungry?
"Lady Si, are you the reincarnation of a starving ghost?" Murong Qingli spoke as expected.
"Your Majesty, maybe you are right!" Si Muqiao nodded seriously.
"?" Murong Qingli.
"I may have starved to death in my previous life. Isn't that the reincarnation of a starving ghost?"
"Besides, I will be performing the stone-breaking chest demonstration later."
"If you don't eat enough, you won't have the energy to perform!"
Simuqiao spoke in a righteous and serious manner, which made Murong Qingli and Guo Fu speechless.
Especially Guo Fu.
He first served the late emperor and now serves Your Majesty. He has been serving them at meals for so many years.
In all these years, he had never seen anyone eat so much when sitting with His Majesty.
Which of those concubines in the harem doesn’t have a small stomach?
When they were dining with His Majesty, they were always serving His Majesty in various ways.
After finishing, he took two bites and said he was full.
This Si Meiren, from the first time he served her till now, her appetite has increased...
Seeing that Murong Qingli stopped talking and looked at her with an indescribable look, Si Muqiao simply changed the subject.
"Your Majesty, have you been working overtime to read memorials these days?"
"Staying up late is bad for your health, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself!"
"Okay, I understand." Murong Qingli nodded with a cold expression.
But in fact, what he was thinking at this moment was: It seems that Lady Si really likes me!
Humph, she not only covets my body, but also wants to be favored by me.
Oh, women, what trouble!
"Also, about the dark circles under your eyes, why don't you ask the imperial physician to come and take a look at them?"
"Otherwise, if the Empress Dowager saw it, she would definitely be worried." Si Muqiao added.
"!!!" Murong Qingli suddenly felt like someone was stabbed in the heart.
What does Simi-ren mean by this?
Are you complaining that he is not as handsome as before now that he has dark circles under his eyes?
So they specifically brought out the Empress Dowager to block him?
Thinking of this, Murong Qingli stood up with a cold face, and his tone became even colder.
"Do I need you to take care of my affairs?"
After saying that, he turned and went into the inner room to find a mirror.
Si Muqiao, who was sitting in the same place, said: "???"
The dog tyrant is really a moody person!
Just a quarter of an hour ago, he was sitting at the dinner table joking with her, saying that she was a starving ghost reincarnated.
The next second, he suddenly turned away.
What does this mean?
Could it be that he was disgusted by her saying that he had dark circles under his eyes?
Oh no! That must be it.
I didn't expect that the dog tyrant would be so concerned about his image?
But what she said was the truth!
The dog tyrant's handsome face is quite white and tender.
As a result, the dark circles under those eyes, which were as dark and deep as cold ponds, appeared particularly obvious.
"Miss Si, why don't you come in?"
Just as Simuqiao was sitting there in a daze, Murong Qingli's angry roar was heard from the inner room of the Yangxin Palace.
Si Muqiao rolled his eyes subconsciously, then stood up and walked inside.
"Your Majesty, do you have any instructions for me by calling me here?" Si Muqiao asked with his head down.
"I think what you said makes sense. I cannot let the Empress Dowager see me looking so haggard."
"So, I will give you a quarter of an hour to make my dark circles disappear, otherwise, I will ask you to fast for three days!"
"!!!" Si Muqiao suddenly.
This dog tyrant really has her life in his hands.
Fasting for three days? Just starve her to death!
So cruel!
If she had known, she shouldn't have chatted with the dog tyrant.
"Yes, I'll try."
Although he was very angry, Si Muqiao still kept smiling. He nodded and began to think.
