The female supporting role is crazy about the male lead

Yue Yushu was carefully looking at the civilian selection plan for this year's draft presented by his subordinates.

In one month, the Yun Dynasty's once-in-three-years imperial concubine selection show will be held. This is a major event for the entire Yun Dynasty, and their Ministry of Rites has been busy with this recently.

However, he was not satisfied with any of the ones presented to him.

Either they are too complicated or they are not well thought out. None of them is the most suitable and feasible.

As the election day approaches, Yue Yushu rubs his forehead, feeling a little distressed.

Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it, a cold and delicate hand touched his forehead, and then his slightly swollen temple was massaged by the woman's gentle and powerful fingertips, and his brows relaxed a lot.

But it only lasted for a moment, and the next second, the wrinkles between the man's brows became deeper.

"Xia," he took the woman's hand, "you don't have to do this for me."

"I need to watch for a while longer, you can leave first."

Xia Ran's hands, which he had taken away, just hung in the air, and she shrank her fingertips helplessly.

Then he reached for the food box and took out a series of fragrant side dishes. "Sir, official duties are important, but your health is more important. Let's have dinner first."

The dish in front of me smelled delicious, but it didn’t look so “perfect”.

It’s obvious at first glance that it wasn’t made by the mansion’s kitchen staff.

Yue Yushu lowered his eyes, put down the book in his hand, and then pushed the dishes in front of him forward and looked at the woman, "Don't bother to bring me dinner anymore."

Those ink-black eyes stared at Xia Ran quietly, without a trace of affection in them.

The woman did not give up, and still advised gently: "Sir, the kitchen will send someone to bring it over. By the time you put down your official duties and eat, the food will be cold."

"Why don't you eat what I made for you first?" Xia Ran put the dishes in front of the man again, "braised tofu, steamed fish, and..."

Before she could finish her words, the man raised his hand to interrupt her, "Don't bother, just keep it for yourself."

The man's voice already contained a hint of impatience.

Then he pushed her food away and picked up the book again.

Xia Ran could hardly maintain her smile.

It was not until she returned to Yihóngyuan carrying the untouched food that the feeling of depression in her heart completely disappeared.

Fortunately, she didn't burn it herself, otherwise she would have been pissed to death by that male protagonist.

The treasury of the Empress Dowager in the Linhua Hall of the Imperial Palace.

A white figure stood in the middle of a room full of treasures. It was none other than Master Ji, who had recently gained favor.

The man was tall, with loose black hair that was only loosely tied into a bun with a jade hairpin. The rest of his smooth, black hair fell straight down, with a few disobedient strands entangled in his hands.

Viewed from the side, the man had very fair skin, soft and neat facial lines, a high nose bridge, and thick, black eyelashes that shone with a green glow when viewed closely.

Ye Ji felt a bit of a headache looking at the treasures stacked up layer upon layer. It was not an easy task to find what he wanted among them relying on manpower alone.

He couldn't use his magic power rashly now, otherwise he would be at risk of being exposed.

Never mind, let’s start looking.

The man in white began to rummage through the mountain of treasures.

In recent days, Xia Ran has been trying very hard to make her presence felt in front of the male protagonist, and then coming back with a lot of sadness and pain, so it can be said that she has reaped a lot of rewards.

After her self-mutilation method of removing her emotional roots, the emotions and feelings left by the original owner in her have faded a lot, but it is still not enough to give up completely.

It was another day when I was ruthlessly persuaded to go back after delivering dinner to that bad guy.

The woman walked into Yihóngyuan with red eyes.

"Madam," Jin Feng hurriedly came forward, carefully wiping away the tears from the woman's eyes with a handkerchief, his eyes showing heartache, "Your Excellency won't eat again?"

Xia Ran hummed, and her eyes filled with tears again.

Yu Lu, who had been observing Xia Ran, was a little angry. The lady was deeply in love with the master, but that man had never set foot in Yihong Courtyard.

He usually treated his wife like a stranger in the mansion, completely ignoring the rumors spread among the people.

As the Minister of Rites, he didn't even care about his wife's reputation.

It’s really a waste to have such a noble identity!

Recently, Yue Yushu has been working all night long for the emperor's concubine selection ceremony, and he has been staying in the study after the court session.

Xia Ran seriously suspected that he and the heroine Yun Shuang'er had no time to develop feelings!

In this case, her plan to "kill the love brain" would not be able to proceed quickly.

But it turned out that she was worrying too much.

The reason why the male and female protagonists can become the protagonists of a world is naturally because the whole world is helping them come together.

Today is Yue Yushu’s birthday party.

Early in the morning, Xia Ran was supervising in the hall, directing the servants and maids to tie ribbons on the beams and pillars.

"Madam, you chose the color and fabric of this belt very well. My lord will definitely be happy to see it when he comes back from court." Yue Degui, the steward of the Yue Mansion, said to Xia Ran with a smile.

Xia Ran smiled and said, "I think you have been too tired recently. I am holding this birthday banquet today in the hope that you will feel better after seeing it."

After hearing this, Manager Yue was filled with deep emotion.

The lady is about the same age as his little daughter. His little daughter plays all day long, but the lady is already able to manage the entire Yue Mansion.

My Lord is so blessed to have a wife like you.

Everything was ready, and Xia Ran waited in the front hall for her husband to come home.

Not long after, Yue Yushu arrived home.

He also brought a guest, the female protagonist Yun Shuang'er.

"Princess, it is really against etiquette for you to follow me like this. Please go back to the palace."

Yue Yushu, who had not yet changed out of his court robes, walked in while looking back at Yun Shuang'er who was following him closely.

How could Yun Shuang'er listen?

"Master Yue, you can't chase me away. I came here specially to help you celebrate your birthday today."

"You have to come with me to Jingshan. I have prepared a lot of fun things for you."

The woman was wearing a cute pink outfit today, which made her skin look smooth and rosy, and rosy and shiny.

She put her face close to Yue Yushu, with crescent-shaped eyebrows, star-like eyes, and a sweet smile.

Yue Yushu still frowned and was about to speak.

"Sir, you're back." Xia Ran spoke and walked slowly forward with a standard and decent smile on his face.

The two people, oblivious to the surroundings, looked at her at the same time.

Before Yue Yushu could say anything, the woman next to him spoke first.

"Wow! Xia Ran," Yun Shuang'er looked at the silken threads on the roof with amazement, "Did you prepare all this?"

Xia Ran nodded, "Yes, Princess, today is your birthday, so I wanted to celebrate for you."

The previously simple and plain hall has completely changed compared to the morning.

The roof was decorated with lights and beautiful silk satin hanging down. They covered the roof like a cloud, looking fluffy and soft.

Taking into account Yue Yushu's style of not wasting money, Xia Ran also specially added some of his favorite "calligraphy and painting" elements.

The lanterns hanging above are all decorated with freehand paintings of mountains and rivers that she painted herself.

Not only lanterns, but also many rare calligraphy and paintings that she brought from her father's house were hung on the walls, all of which were masterpieces of famous artists that men admired.

The entire hall was decorated by her with a scholarly atmosphere, and you can see the woman's intentions.

Yue Yushu was slightly stunned when he saw this scene. He wanted to say something but didn't say it.

Xia Ran looked at the man in front of her quietly, with a hint of anticipation in her eyes.

But the man looked away.

The woman's eyes dimmed.

After Yun Shuang'er admired Mr. Ning's original painting of "Appreciating the Snow", she took Xia Ran's hand and shook it, "Ran Ran, Master Yue wants to go to Jingshan with me."

"Do you want to join us? It's fun."

The girl looked at her with flickering eyes, which were full of kindness and no aggression at all.

Xia Ran also looked at the girl, his lips trembling, not knowing what to say.

Perhaps knowing Xia Ran's concerns, the princess spoke cheerfully: "Lord Yue, let Ran Ran go with us~"

The girl acted coquettishly like her husband, in front of her.

Xia Ran felt a sudden sharp pain in her heart at this moment. The original owner's heavy humiliation and pain made her unable to stand up.

"Madam!" Jin Feng hurried over to support her upon seeing this.

"Ranran, what's wrong with you?" Yun Shuang'er also supported her carefully and asked softly.

Xia Ran shook her head and caught a glimpse of the man who took a small step towards her. She felt too sad to say anything.

She panted softly, and with the support of the golden wind, she managed to speak to the girl in front of her: "Princess, I'm not feeling well. You can take the adults to celebrate the birthday. I'm going to rest first."

After saying that, she asked Jinfeng to help her go back.

"okay."

"Madam, how are you?" Seeing Xia Ran's pale face, Jin Feng's eyes turned red like a rabbit again.

"It's okay, Jinfeng, let's go back to Yihong Courtyard."

Behind him, there was no sound of anyone trying to persuade him to stay, only the whispers of the servants nearby.
