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

Xia Yechen knew where Concubine Shu was concerned, but unfortunately he didn't want to care about it, so he just pretended not to see it. After he finished speaking, he looked nervous again and asked Concubine Shu about her birth name.

"I wonder if my mother and concubine have heard that my father has relented? After all, she is the only wife that I have recognized, and now she is staying in the palace like this..."

Xia Yechen paused for a moment before saying, "It's not good after all, are you right, concubine?"

Concubine Shu frowned without a trace, knowing in her heart that Xia Yechen was using the emperor to exert pressure, but mother and son had the same ability to pretend to be stupid. Concubine Shu only blinked strangely and sighed: " The Sacred Heart is hard to fathom, so how can Mother and Concubine dare to speculate on it?"

After that, when she saw that Xia Yechen wanted to speak, she waved her hand and said pointedly, "It's hard for us, mother and son, to get together, why do we still say these things?"

"It just so happens that His Majesty came here yesterday to reward a lot of interesting things. How about Yechen having breakfast here today?"

Xia Yechen was naturally aware of such an obvious change of topic.

He nodded calmly and did not refuse, but there was a hint of displeasure and worry in his eyes.

In fact, if Concubine Shu really doesn't let go, things will indeed become a bit troublesome. Even if Xia Yechen is sure to make it happen, it is foreseeable that the road ahead will be bumpy.

He was still a little confused, but Concubine Shu seemed to have really given up. She looked calm and ordered the maid to bring the dishes.

Xia Yechen followed him to the table, but he was still a little wary.

Concubine Shu finally asked him to come, but it didn't look like she would give up so easily. Xia Yechen took a chopstick of the dish.

, hesitated for a moment, and then deliberately praised a few words.

Hearing this, Concubine Shu covered her mouth and chuckled, but didn't say anything. She just pushed the dish towards Xia Yechen and spoke in a friendly tone.

"Since you like it, eat more."

It didn't seem to have any effect. Xia Yechen was forced to eat the vegetables. His mind was not on it. Instead, he was a little annoyed at his impulse just now. Even though Concubine Shu didn't say anything, the embarrassment still followed her.

Fortunately, the dining table was not quiet for long. Soon Concubine Shu put down her chopsticks and looked at Xia Yechen thoughtfully.

Xia Yechen naturally understood, and raised his eyes to ask clearly, but Concubine Shu smiled and said, "I just thought of something. You continue to eat, and I will talk to you. Just watch it."

Concubine Shu said it casually, but looking at this symptom, it didn't seem casual. Xia Yechen couldn't help but sit upright.

Seeing this, Concubine Shu did not correct anything, but just mentioned lightly: "Speaking of which, there have always been no people in your house. Now that Miss Zhou has moved in, I heard that you brought a few other people with you... I'm afraid there is not enough manpower. ?”

It sounded like he had to arrange manpower. Xia Yechen frowned for a moment and denied it, "There are military guards in my house and other servants and women, so there won't be enough manpower."

Concubine Shu was stunned when she said this, obviously not expecting Xia Yechen to refuse so readily.

She looked displeased for a moment, with a reminder in her tone.

"I dare not say goodbye to my parents' orders, Yechen, I haven't even finished what I have to say, why are you in such a hurry to refuse?"

It was said to be a reminder, but in fact it was almost a deterrent. Xia Yechen understood it in his heart and was not too surprised. He nodded thoughtfully and politely.

He took back what he just said and said directly: "Mother and concubine continue to speak, my son is here to listen."

Concubine Shu's expression became much more relaxed at this time. She said a few more words with a smile, pretending to mention it casually:

"It's a coincidence that my palace sent a few servants here a few days ago. They were all trained by the palace. They are many times more loyal than the maids bought from outside."

She said she was loyal, but Xia Yechen didn't believe it at all. The man looked calm and just listened to Concubine Shu boasting about herself.

However, Concubine Shu was not embarrassed to sing on the stage alone.

After going around in a circle, she didn't wait for Xia Yechen's consent. She asked the nanny beside her to call those people up. At the same time, she smiled at Xia Yechen and said directly: "Listen, concubine. You must be tired of talking so much, but it doesn’t matter, there must be others who can catch your eye.”

Before Xia Yechen understood what Concubine Shu meant by "eyesore", he saw the palace door open in an instant, and three or two palace ladies filed in. After entering, they stood in two rows in front of them.

No, to be precise, they should stand in two rows in front of Xia Yechen. Concubine Shu even took the initiative to guide them.

Looking at this, Xia Yechen's expression became even weirder.

He tilted his head, not wanting to give Concubine Shu any face, and asked: "What are you doing, Concubine Shu? These people..."

Concubine Shu didn't look like she wanted to defend herself. She covered her lips and smiled, but what she said was high-sounding. She said, "Ye Chen, you don't have to think too much. These are just the choices of your mother and concubine and your father." To choose, just ask your own waiter specifically."

"After all, in the capital, which aristocratic family member does not have a personal maid by his side? Ye

Now that Chen is back, he should do as the Romans do. It's a little late to find a maid at this age, but there's no rush. "

Concubine Shu said it seriously, but Xia Yechen's face was a little gloomy and he spoke clearly, "Concubine, I don't need these maids."

As if realizing that his words were too serious, Xia Yechen paused, and finally reluctantly softened his tone.

He added: "I have my own guards, and there is no shortage of people in the house."

Concubine Shu blinked slightly and had no intention of retorting, but she didn't look too happy. She pursed her lips slightly and only asked, "Is Yechen going to refuse the kindness of the concubine?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Yechen's first reaction was of course to deny it, but before he could speak, he thought of who was behind Concubine Shu.

For a moment, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

It would be easier to reject Concubine Shu, but he wanted to deny it just now. If he still refuses to accept these good intentions after denying it, wouldn't it be refuting the emperor's face?

Comparing the two, it was obviously more cost-effective to offend Concubine Shu, but things were not as simple as Xia Yechen imagined.

Seeing that he understood, Concubine Shu struck directly while the iron was hot.

"It seems that Ye Chen also knows what Concubine Mu is thinking. Concubine Mu is not forcing anything. It's just that you know very little about others and haven't experienced much. If you are deceived, it won't be worthwhile after all."

She said, still gentle, "My mother-in-law also does it for your own good. I am afraid that you will not adapt, so I specially selected these people to serve you."

After saying that, Concubine Shu turned around and asked the maids to introduce themselves.

Xia Yechen lowered his head slightly. He didn't speak or refute. He didn't even want to look. He just ran away.

Avoiding it, he first met Concubine Shu's slightly warning eyes.

Obviously, Concubine Shu was also a little unhappy.
