The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

At this point, the emperor naturally understood. He nodded and said, "I have heard a little bit about this."

But the emperor was obviously not prepared to mention it. He turned around and said, "Ye Chen was found not long ago. As a mother, it is normal for you to be concerned. Even if he has left the palace and established a palace, he is yours after all." son."

Knowing that this was the emperor's acquiescence, Concubine Shu was extremely happy and quickly knelt down to thank the emperor.

This night is destined to be filled with undercurrents and unrest.

Even though Xia Yechen had not received any news, he was still in the study doing official business late at night.

Song Ling outside the door was full of doubts. He originally thought that since they had brought those two back, His Highness could go into the house and sleep. However, he did not expect that at this time, His Highness was still burning the midnight oil in the study.

He wanted to persuade His Highness to have a good rest, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Xia Yechen arranged other things.

He ran errands again and again, and in the end Songling didn't dare to speak.

He was afraid that his master would think that he wanted to be lazy. He couldn't bear the crime, so he could only endure it with His Highness.

On the other side, Zhou Xiaoyuan couldn't sleep while lying on the bed. Thinking of what happened this afternoon, she couldn't help but feel that she had gone too far towards Xia Yechen.

At that time, I felt that I was justified in doing this, but after all, Zhou Xiaoyuan was not a stone-hearted person.

She clearly knew what Xia Yechen had done for her...

Why couldn't I keep my mouth shut at that time, and insisted on quarreling with him, and later asked someone to drive him away? It was obvious that they were about to talk, it was obvious that the matter was almost settled...

Zhou Xiaoyuan tossed and turned, unable to sleep and not knowing what to do.

Originally I wanted to be ruthless, but Ming

All right.

As a result, when she closed her eyes, all Zhou Xiaoyuan saw was Xia Yechen's kindness to her. From the first meeting to the last actions, Xia Yechen made concessions for her every time.

Even if it was because she was wearing the shell of the original owner, in fact, what difference did it make? Even Nini accepted it.

Moreover, he has promised his original intention to take good care of the two of them.

Zhou Xiaoyuan pursed her lips and asked quietly in her heart, if the original owner saw her treating Xia Yechen like this, would she be unhappy?

But the strangeness that was beyond his control never appeared again. Except for that dream, the signs of the original owner seemed to be directly wiped out from this world.

Zhou Xiaoyuan felt a little chilled, realizing that the original owner might have really disappeared.

The only thing she did before disappearing was to plead with herself to take good care of her family... She had already agreed, so why did she go back on her word? Xia Yechen is a good person, and Nini is also a very cute and well-behaved little girl.

Even if she loses the right to choose, she can ask herself, can Zhou Xiaoyuan definitely find such a good person by herself?

Maybe...she really should think about it.

After thinking about it, Zhou Xiaoyuan really couldn't sleep anymore. She got up and stared at the moonlight for a while, but she couldn't hold it back anymore and called out softly: "Yingmei, are you asleep?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan has never had any concept of time here, but she estimated that it was only eight or nine o'clock now, so she called it like this.

Sure enough, a response came from outside quickly, "I'm not asleep, what's the matter?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan breathed a sigh of relief and called the person over. Hesitatingly,

He asked, "Do you know when the prince usually falls asleep? Is he asleep at this hour?"

When talking about this, Zhou Xiaoyuan actually didn't think about what to do, apologize? It seems that some teachers come from unknown sources...

She was struggling, and even secretly hoped that Xia Yechen would be better off sleeping.

This way, I don't have to disturb him. How can I disturb someone's sleep?

As a result, Yingmei glanced at her strangely, and the words she spat out quickly broke Zhou Xiaoyuan's delusion: "Back to my lady, the prince goes to bed late and usually doesn't fall asleep at this time. If the girl is curious, you can send someone to have a look in the study." head."

After saying that, Yingmei added, "But I just heard from the servant passing by that some food should be arranged in the study. It should be the prince's order."

Even though her fantasy was broken, Zhou Xiaoyuan was surprisingly relieved.

She wasn't the kind of wolf with blank eyes. Since Xia Yechen wasn't sleeping and she had other thoughts, she should do something.

Zhou Xiaoyuan struggled for a while about what she might do. Then she remembered what Yingmei said about eating. She couldn't help but ask directly: "Is there a small kitchen in the yard?"

Yingmei yawned and was a little puzzled when she heard this. She shook her head and said: "There are small kitchens in each courtyard, but they are unused and abandoned. If the girl is hungry, she can go to the kitchen. Head, after all, His Highness just ordered a supper, so there should be people in the kitchen who are still awake."

She spoke casually but carefully enough, but Zhou Xiaoyuan shook her head and said, "That's good. Let's go to the kitchen and have a look. I want to make something."

Zhou Xiaoyuan originally wanted to drag Yingmei to beat her

I did it, but I didn't expect that when I came to the kitchen, I found that it was exactly what Yingmei said.

There is almost nothing.

Zhou Xiaoyuan frowned and asked where the food warehouse was. Yingmei's expression became increasingly weird, but she still answered politely.

When she finished taking the things and rushed back to the kitchen excitedly, Yingmei realized something was wrong and quickly asked: "Are you going to make food? But no one has used the kitchen. Girl, you..."

"It's quiet when no one is using it." Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't care much, arranged the things one by one, and directed Yingmei to fire.

Yingmei was confused and thought Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't understand what she was talking about.

So he repeated it clearly: "Girl, if you are hungry, you can let the cook do it. There is no need to do it yourself. It's so late, you can let the cook do it, so why do you have to do it?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan heard it the first time, but she just replied lightly the second time: "I heard it, just remember your identity."

Yingmei was stunned and then realized that Zhou Xiaoyuan was reminding herself.

Why should she, a slave, be so nosy? Yingmei was embarrassed for a moment, so she had to shut up, listen to the instructions, and help Zhou Xiaoyuan.

Just playing with it, Yingmei couldn't help but ask one more question: "Girl, are you making a midnight snack? Isn't the portion too much?"

"A lot?"

Zhou Xiaoyuan blinked and looked at what she had finished and she felt good, so she said, "It's okay, just send part of it over, and you can eat the rest yourself."

But after hearing this, Yingmei came back to her senses. She frowned and asked sharply: "Who are you sending this girl to?"

What does this sound like?

Harsh disgust?

Zhou Xiaoyuan was even more surprised. She glanced at Yingmei and said, "Of course it's for the prince."
