Changle is a very capable person, and Qi Huang sent him here because he liked his ability.
However, in Li Chu's eyes, this ability almost drove people crazy.
When Li Chu came back, the sky had already darkened. He finished one thing today, and he was in a very good mood. When he stepped into the small courtyard, he didn't know if it was because of his good mood. The courtyard seems to be brighter than before.
Chang Le, who was supposed to be busy in the yard, was not there. There was a strange fragrance in the air. Li Chu moved his nose and felt his stomach growling. He rubbed his stomach and frowned. Wrinkled, walked towards the direction of the kitchen.
Chang Le was not in the stove, but there was a casserole on top of the stove. I don't know what was stewing in the casserole. White smoke was billowing, and bursts of strong aroma kept coming out.
After tossing and tossing for so long, Li Chu was also a little hungry. He touched his stomach and wanted to taste the soup.
Just when Li Chu wanted to taste the soup himself, Chang Le's voice came from behind him.
"Mr. Li, you are back, I made some soup, would you like to drink some?"
Li Chu originally wanted to say with restraint that he didn't want to eat, but before he opened his mouth, his stomach was already growling uncontrollably, Li Chu's face changed slightly, and he felt a little embarrassed.
A smile appeared on Changle's face, and he said in a gentle voice: "It seems that Mr. Li is hungry, you go back to your room first, and I'll fill up the soup and bring it to you right away."
Li Chu shook his head, pretending to be bold and said: "We hunters are not so particular, I can just eat here, and I don't need to go back to my room."
Seeing his insistence, Chang Le didn't say much, and directly took a clean bowl from the cupboard, filled it with a bowl of thickly boiled soup.
After the lid was lifted, a tangy aroma rushed over, Li Chu sniffed, and his eyes lit up involuntarily.
"The taste of this soup is really strong, and I don't know what it is made of."
Chang Le said: "It's nothing, it's just a pheasant caught casually. I didn't expect that thing to look good, and the smell is quite overbearing. I just don't know how it tastes. I hope it can be worthy of its fragrance."
Li Chu said with a smile: "The fragrance is so attractive, the taste will never be bad."
With that said, Li Chu scooped up a spoonful of soup with the spoon and put it into his mouth.
delicious
The taste of the soup exploded in Li Chu's mouth, and the umami taste of the soup made him want to swallow his tongue. Li Chu hadn't eaten such a delicious thing for a long time, and he couldn't control himself for a while. After drinking that bowl of soup, I ate more than half of the meat, and then I felt satisfied.
You should know that the general stewed chicken tastes a little bit of wood, and it tastes dry in the mouth, but the taste of this pheasant is different. It is not as dry as other pheasants. It tastes sweet and soft, which is unique. taste.
After eating and drinking enough, Li Chu sighed contentedly, and then said: "Changle, where did you catch this pheasant? If you can catch it, I will catch another one tomorrow."
He was a little hungry and wanted to eat more.
After Chang Le took the remaining chicken soup off the stove, he said, "I'm afraid it won't work. It's a coincidence that this pheasant got here. It's not so easy to catch it again."
After hearing these words, Li Chu suddenly felt something was wrong, he glanced at the tightly covered casserole, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Where did you catch this pheasant? "
Changle pointed to the big tree outside, and said: "It was caught on the tree. I don't know where this pheasant flew from. I think it is fat and big. It must be delicious, so I shot it with a slingshot." down."
Li Chu: "..."
After a pause, Chang Le continued: "Speaking of which, this pheasant is really stupid. I have been out and in for so long, and it doesn't know how to fly, so I just shot it down."
Li Chu: "..."
The ominous premonition in his heart is getting stronger and stronger. How likely is it that a pheasant will fly to the tree of their house, and why is it unwilling to leave
"Is the whole pheasant here? You also stewed all the offal?"
Li Chu asked. If you listen carefully, you will find that there seems to be an imperceptible tremor in his voice.
Chang Le didn't find anything wrong, he spoke very calmly.
"Of course not. I pulled out all the feathers of the pheasant, and threw away all the internal organs of the chicken. Those things are not edible."
Seeing that Li Chu's complexion didn't look well, Chang Le asked with concern, "Mr. Li, what's wrong with you? Why is your face so ugly? Are you feeling unwell? If you're feeling unwell, I'll go outside to find a doctor Come and show you..."
Li Chu reluctantly said: "No, I'm fine, I'm a little tired, I want to go first
Go back and rest. "
After saying these words, without waiting for Chang Le to answer, he hurried back to his room.
However, as soon as he opened the door and entered, Li Chu found that all the decorations of his room had changed.
He's only been out for most of the day, right? How did the room become like this!
Because he was too shocked, Li Chu stood at the door of the room and did not go in for a long time.
At this time, Chang Le also packed up the kitchen and came out. Seeing Li Chu standing at the door and not entering, Chang Le asked curiously, "Mr. Li, why don't you go back to your room to rest?"
There are only him and Changle in this yard, and Changle can only do this.
Li Chu turned around stiffly, looked at Chang Le who was standing not far away, and finally squeezed out a few words from his mouth after a long time: "You did all this?"
How dare he? !
Chang Le didn't seem to notice that Li Chu's mood was wrong, and nodded very calmly: "I did it."
Seeing that Chang Le didn't even defend himself, and just admitted what he had done, the expression on Li Chu's face could hardly be stretched. color to.
"Why did you do this? Who told you to do this!"
Chang Le said: "Your Highness asked me to do this."
Li Chu, who was about to get angry, was stunned: "Qi Qi asked you to do it?"
Could it be that Qi Wang discovered something, so he did these things on purpose
No, no one knows Qi Wang's character better than him. That guy was raised very purely, and his guts go all the way to the end. Others can see what he thinks at a glance. He doesn't have this kind of mind...
But Changle is indeed someone sent by Qi Wang. The furniture in his room, as well as the so-called pheasant he ate just now, are all handled by Chang Le. If Qi Wang hadn't said something, how would he dare to be a slave? Something that moves the master
Various thoughts turned in Li Chu's mind, and his face showed a little bit: "Changle, how can you move things in my room without my permission? I..."
Before Li Chu could finish speaking, Chang Le interrupted him directly.
"But this is what the little hall ordered me to do. I dare not disobey what the little highness said. Mr. Li, I hope you don't blame me."
Before Li Chu could speak, Chang Le continued.
"When the little Highness sent me out of the palace before, he specifically told me to take good care of you and make sure you live the best and most comfortable life."
"Your room
The furniture and bedding were prepared in a hurry before, not to mention the old style, and it is not very comfortable to use. There are also clothes and bedding, which are all ordinary goods. Your Highness cares about you, and naturally wants you to use the best. "
"I know that you used to be used to these things in the mountains and fields, and you didn't feel anything, but since your highness sent me here, I will choose for you based on my standards and vision."
"You see, I have carefully arranged the things in your room. Although they are not as good as the ones in the palace, they are still sufficient. This is the painstaking effort of Your Highness. You must not let it down."
Changle has already talked about this point, so what else can Li Chu say
Qi Wang just wanted to make his life better. He had good intentions. Although he did bad things with good intentions, his intentions were good. How could Li Chu, who loves Qi Wang so much, say no? Come
Seeing that Chang Le was still staring at him, Li Chu forced a smile on his face: "It's hard for Qi Qi to be so considerate of me, but I'm just an ordinary hunter, as long as things work, I don't need anything too good next time you don’t need to buy these things for me, I will tell Qi Qi that you don’t have to take care of me like this.”
Chang Le nodded and said: "What Mr. Li said is true, but I have replaced all these things, and there is no need to replace them with new ones for the time being, just don't worry."
Li Chu: "..."
If he continued talking with Chang Le, Li Chu felt that he would vomit blood from Chang Le's anger. Now, everything can't be changed, and there is no point in continuing to entangle. Li Chu took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. After coming down, he told Chang Le that he was tired, and went straight back to the room to rest.
Looking at the closed door, Chang Le shrugged, feeling that this Li Chu was much more difficult to serve than his little Highness.
A hunter who came from deep mountains and old forests didn't know how to develop such a character. If their young highness really decided to be with him, he would have to change his character for his little highness.
Thinking of this, Chang Le took a deep look at the closed door, turned around and went back to his room.
Li Chu didn't know what Changle was thinking. After returning to the room that had been changed beyond recognition, Li Chu almost couldn't control his temper and smashed the room to pieces.
He is the dignified prince of Chu country, the proud son of gold and jade, if it is not for the ambition of Chu country, why would he come to this place incognito
Obviously everything before was smooth as hell, because
Why are there so many mistakes now
Thinking of being replaced by a spotless house, and thinking of the so-called stewed pheasant, Li Chu wanted to rush out and teach Changle a lesson.
The bird of prey is a special bird of Chu State. They look like pheasants, but they are much smarter than pheasants.
The royal family of Chu State had a special bird trainer to train the birds of prey, the purpose is to convey information.
Unlike ordinary carrier pigeons, the bird of prey is not tied to the bird's leg to deliver the letter, but the message is sealed with wax pellets, which the bird of prey swallows. the potion, let it spit out the wax pills.
The number of birds of prey is rare, and the number of birds of prey that can be used to send messages is even rarer. If one wants to train a bird of prey, it may cost more than ten thousand gold.
Changle actually stewed such a valuable bird of prey... Although the taste of the bird of prey is really good, he didn't raise the bird of prey for food!
At this moment, Li Chu is only fortunate that the wax pills are sealed in the stomach of the bird of prey, and most people don't eat offal, and the offal will be thrown away, otherwise, if the wax pills inside are eaten by Changle When he found out, he could only take the risk of killing Chang Le.
Lying on the soft bed, thinking of all the things that happened today, Li Chu's complexion became more and more ugly, and his mood became worse. He took a few deep breaths, tried to calm down, and put aside these embarrassing things. things, thinking about what to do next.
He must get Qi Wang back to him as soon as possible, only when Qi Wang is by his side, he can do many things with ease.
How can Qi Wang marry him as soon as possible
Li Chu closed his eyes, and began to think about ways to get Qi Huang to marry him as soon as possible.
***
The weather these few days is good, when the sun is shining at noon, Qi Wang will ask someone to move the rocking chair in the yard, while he is lying on the rocking chair covered with thick cushions to bask in the sun.
There are many palace people in Changshou Palace, but they are all old people in Changshou Palace, they are used to serving in the palace, they know Qi Huang's temper, so they seldom come to him.
Cuiwei and Honghong stood on the left and the other on the right. Honghong was peeling walnuts with small pliers, while Cuiwei was reading a book of travel notes beside her.
Qi Wang lay on the rocking chair with his eyes closed, enjoying the rare leisure time.
Sure enough, being a salted fish without doing anything is the happiest thing.
Just when Qi Wang Youzai Youzai was enjoying this leisurely life, an unharmonious voice
It rang.
"Your Highness, the slave has recently arranged a new shadow puppet show, which is your favorite hero saving the beauty. Do you want to watch it? Is it possible for the slave to perform it for you?"
After hearing this familiar voice, Qi Wang opened his eyelids and looked in the direction of the voice.
Not far away, Chang'an, who was stopped by the guards outside, was yelling in this direction with all his strength, and he was holding two exquisitely made shadow puppets in his hand, as if he really wanted to show the shadow puppets to Qi Wang.
It's good to be idle and have some fun for yourself.
"Pei Chen, let him come over."
Qi Wang spoke indifferently, and the guard who stopped Chang'an responded, then stepped aside and let Chang'an over.
Chang An's face showed a bit of joy, he ran over in a hurry, and knelt down with a plop at a distance of about one meter from Qi Wang.
"Your Highness, I really realized my mistake. I have been reflecting on myself for the past few days, so I made this shadow puppet show to amuse you. Don't you like the shadow puppet show performed by this servant the most? How about I show it to you?"
Qi Wang rested his head on his hands, lazily looking at Chang An who was kneeling on the ground.
Although Chang'an looks pretty good on the surface, but Qi Wang knows that he is not living well these days.
The palace has always been a place where people step on the high and hold the low. When Chang'an was a first-class palace official, it is not an exaggeration to say that he walked sideways in the Longevity Palace. The palace people in the Longevity Palace habitually hugged him Well, dare not go against him in everything, a little slave is like a half-master, not to mention how imposing it is.
However, after Qi Huang sent Chang Le to Li Chu's side, he transferred Cui Wei and Hong Hong to serve him, taking the positions of Chang'an and Chang Le as first-class palace servants.
These few days, Qi Wang's indifference towards Chang'an can be clearly seen by anyone with a discerning eye. Originally, only Chang'an Changle could serve His Highness closely, but now those two people have been replaced by Cuiwei and Honghong. His Royal Highness
She didn't even give him extra glances.
The original first-class palace people could have a separate room, but Chang'an was kicked out of the room and squeezed into the Datong shop with the second-class palace people. This is for Chang'an who has always been used to living alone. , is something that cannot be tolerated at all.
What made Chang'an even more unbearable was the attitude of the palace people in the Longevity Palace towards him. How had he ever been wronged like this
After suffering for a few days, Chang An couldn't take it anymore, and today he is going all out, just to regain Qi Huang's trust and love.
"Let's play."
There was no change in the expression on Qi Wang's face, he just said something lightly, Chang'an couldn't figure out Qi Wang's thoughts, but since Qi Wang wanted to see, then he was sure to return to the position of the first-class palace man .
After a simple arrangement, Chang'an began to perform.
What I have to say is that Chang'an really has two talents, and his shadow puppetry is quite vivid.
Cui Wei and Hong Hong were a little nervous, fearing that Qi Wang would be attracted, they looked at Qi Wang together, seeing that he didn't seem to be interested, they both breathed a sigh of relief.
It's okay, it's okay, judging by the appearance of the little Highness, he probably doesn't want Chang'an to come back.
When the rich girl in Chang'an was rescued by a hero in the green forest, and she wanted to marry her as his wife with her own body, Qi Huang didn't bother to continue listening.
"Pei Chen, take Chang'an to the East Palace and hand it over to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, saying that he was just trying to seduce me."
Does this Changan think everyone is a fool? Or do you think that you can only control him and not be afraid of others? Such an upright interpretation of the scene of the hero saving the beauty with his body, if he said that he didn't mean something, no fool would believe it.
Chang'an never thought that Qi Wang would ask Pei Chen to send him to the East Palace, he was immediately dumbfounded, and shouted loudly: "My lord, this is the shadow puppet show that you usually like the most, it's because the slaves didn't arrange it well Is it? Your Highness..."
Chang'an wanted to continue making trouble, but in the end, Pei Chen came up with the guards and grabbed him. His mouth was also blocked with a cloth, and those beautifully crafted shadow puppets fell to the ground.
Qi Wang looked at Chang'an with a terrified face, and said lightly: "My taste has changed recently, I don't like the way of being a hero to save the beauty, but now I prefer to hug left and right."
After hearing Qi Wang's words, Chang'an suddenly opened his eyes wide, and looked at Qi Wang in disbelief.
so possible? It was a coincidence, definitely a coincidence, how could he know
However, no one gave Chang An a chance to find out the truth of the matter, and he was quickly sent to the East Palace by Pei Chen and handed over to His Highness the Crown Prince.
Knowing that it was about the Longevity Palace, His Royal Highness put down his busy work and invited Pei Chen in.
"Reporting to the crown prince, His Highness ordered his subordinates to hand over Chang'an to the Crown Prince for punishment. His Highness said that Chang'an had bad intentions and wanted to seduce His Highness."
After hearing what Pei Chen said about the cause and effect, the prince will naturally not let Chang'an go.
No wonder Qi Wang chose to marry Li Chu
That Orion, Gener was originally here.
What kind of hero must be promised to save the beauty? There are thousands of ways to repay a favor, why should I promise myself with my body
What if the family has a wife and children or a marriage contract? Could it be that she wants to be a concubine in someone else's house, or does she have to break the marriage contract? These are just rumors that have been circulated in the market and made up indiscriminately, designed to deceive those innocent children.
They have always protected Qi Wang very well, but they never thought that there would be someone around Qi Wang who would instill such thoughts in him.
After Pei Chen handed him over to the crown prince, he left the East Palace without saying anything.
And not long after he left, the prince asked his subordinates to throw Chang'an into the dungeon.
After imprisoning Chang'an in the sky prison, he still felt that something was inappropriate, so he hurried to Yukun Palace and reported the matter to the queen.
