The reborn male concubine goes into business
Chapter 036 Xiao Xi's Gift
"My lord, do you think this prince is sick? You are always hot and cold to me. It's hard to fathom." Little Taozi said in dismay.
If Xiao Xi could figure it out by himself, there would be no need for Xiao Taozi to talk about it here.
"My lord, who are you going to make this painting for?" His young master has been painting on the desk all day today, and has never left the Yafeng Pavilion.
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and I want to make a painting as a gift for the old lady." While speaking, Xiao Xi was still seriously copying stroke by stroke according to the idea in his mind, without raising his head.
"My young master's paintings are top-notch, and everyone outside praises them. If young master paints for the old lady himself, the old lady will be happy." Tao Zi stood beside his young master and flattered him.
Xiao Xi smiled, put down the brush, and looked up at him, "You go out first, if you have nothing to do, don't let people come in to disturb me."
"Okay, my lord." Little Taozi closed the door and went out, Xiao Xi continued to paint with his head down.
As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, many officials and noble families sent congratulatory gifts, and the warehouse, which was only a little looser, had placed a lot of things in recent days.
Xiao Xi is also very busy, busy with returning gifts from various families.Many wives have to go home before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Xiao Xi is also busy preparing things for them to go back to their mother's house.
Many wives left, Xiao Xi was rarely free this day, and went to see Zhu'an.Zhu'an is pregnant, so it's inconvenient to work hard, so she won't go back this year.
The five-month-old belly was already bulging, and Zhu An gently comforted her stomach with her hands, as if comforting the baby in her stomach.She still has lingering fears from the accident a while ago.She must protect her child!
"Princess, there were red flowers in the anti-fetal medicine that Concubine Zhu'an drank yesterday. Fortunately, the people sent by the concubine saw the clue and did not let Concubine Zhu'an drink it by mistake, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!" The maid couldn't help but angrily said.
Someone reported this to him yesterday.Xiao Xi knew that Zhu'an's child was dangerously pregnant, even if she lost a little bit of vigilance, the fetus in her womb would die unexpectedly.
Xiao Xi had never seen Chu Haotian's child, so he didn't know what Zhu'an's child would look like when it was born, so he became a little interested.
"The baby seems to be very obedient." Xiao Xi looked at Zhu'an's stomach with a smile.
"Where is it? Sometimes he is very naughty and always kicks me. You see, when I say he kicks me again, it's really annoying." Zhu'an's eyes shone with the radiance of loving motherhood.
"Princess, you can touch it and feel him beating." Zhu'an looked at Xiao Xi with bright eyes.
Xiao Xi hesitated for a moment, and covered her stomach with her palm, and she could feel a life beating gently under her palm.
"It's amazing." Xiao Xi sighed softly.
What Chu Haotian came over to see happened to be this scene. He really didn't know when his concubine and his side concubine had such a good relationship? !
It was Tao Zi who saw Chu Haotian approaching aggressively with sharp eyes, and hurried forward to report.
"My lord, the prince is here."
Xiao Xi raised his eyes and stretched out his hand back.Zhu'an's eyes flashed with surprise when he heard this.
"My lord." Zhu'an shouted in surprise.
Chu Haotian walked to Xiao Xi's side, and glanced coldly at Zhu An's swollen belly, "I heard that someone has been trying to harm the child in your belly recently?"
"I..., my lord, Zhu'an will protect my child!" Zhu'an said firmly.
"En." Chu Haotian shifted his gaze to Xiao Xi, "I have something to do with you."
"Yes."
Chu Haotian turned around and left. Xiao Xi followed behind Chu Haotian after explaining a few words to Zhu An.
"Don't you think the lord was too ruthless just now?" Xiao Xi couldn't help but frowned.
Chu Haotian sneered, with a gloomy expression on his face, "For those who break my bottom line, if I can do this, I will show my utmost benevolence."
Xiao Xi understands this time, Chu Haotian really doesn't want Zhu'an, breaking his own principles, one time is enough.It was Zhu'an who ruined the prince's love for her.
"Two days will be the Mid-Autumn Festival. That night, the emperor will hold a banquet in the main hall to celebrate with all the courtiers. At that time, my mother will attend as the empress dowager, and you will come with me!" Chu Haotian's cold eyes stared at him.
"Yes, I will attend with the prince." Xiao Xi lowered his eyelids.
Chu Haotian looked at him, and suddenly smiled, "Why, don't you understand my behavior?"
Xiao Xi raised her eyes and looked straight at him, "Don't dare, what the prince did, he has his own reasons. If the prince says that person is hateful, that person is hateful."
Chu Haotian laughed angrily at him, this person could provoke his anger so easily.
"On the day of entering the palace, wear better clothes." It's not that Xiao Xi's usual clothes are not good, but that he can dress better, or in other words, look better.
"Yes, I won't embarrass the prince." Xiao Xi's tone was light.
"You!" Chu Haotian raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to fight me?"
"Xiao Xi dare not."
"Forget it, I still have something to do, I will go to you later."
"Yes."
After Chu Haotian left, little Taozi dared to come over.
"My lord, the prince seems to be looking for you more and more frequently recently!"
Xiao Xi watched his leaving back, closed his eyelids, and did not speak.
On the afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiao Xi followed Chu Haotian into the palace.Chu Haotian was in a good mood and took him to visit many officials under him.
"It seems that you have a good reputation. Most officials have heard of your name."
Chu Haotian took him to visit the Royal Garden, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his tone was slightly teasing.
"Since the day I married the prince, there should be no one who doesn't know that Prince Hao has a male concubine named Xiao Xi."
"Why, don't you want to be the king's concubine?"
"I think it's because the prince doesn't need me." Xiao Xi remained indifferent from the beginning to the end.
Chu Haotian was not annoyed, he took his hand and walked to a more secluded place.Xiao Xi was puzzled and was about to ask, when Chu Haotian suddenly pushed him against the wall, bowed his head and kissed him.
The breath was quickly taken away, and the hot lips and tongue of the other party quickly entered the mouth, nimbly and arrogantly plundering every gap, the tip of the tongue was firmly grasped, licked, bit and sucked, as if sucking all his internal organs.
The first time was gentle and gradual, but this time it was so overbearing, Xiao Xi felt a pain in his chest and couldn't help but lean back.
Suddenly there was a sound outside, Xiao Xi cautiously pushed him away.Chu Haotian took him into his arms and turned around to lean against the wall, looking sideways.
Xiao Xi looked curiously and saw a handsome young man with a group of guards and maids behind him.
"It's the emperor's male favourite." Chu Haotian explained in a low voice.
The emperor's favorite man?Xiao Xi became even more curious, and looked a little more.Chu Haotian deliberately blocked it with his hands, and whispered in his ear, "Why so many times?"
Xiao Xi was speechless.
After the people left, the two came out.Looking at the sky, the banquet is about to start.
Chu Haotian dragged him to the hall to find his seat.At this time, there were not many people in the hall.
As soon as Xiao Xi saw his parents coming in, he immediately stood up, and Chu Haotian also stood up with him, "I'll go with you to say hello to them."
With Chu Haotian around, Xiao Xi couldn't say much, and returned after exchanging a few pleasantries.
"After the banquet is over, go and greet the prime minister and his wife!" Chu Haotian guessed Xiao Xi's thoughts.
Xiao Xi said nothing, just nodded.
The banquet began, the emperor and empress dowager sat down, and all the courtiers stood up to congratulate the emperor and empress dowager.
Then the dancers entered the arena with music, and the Shengge sounded.
Xiao Xi was not very interested in this, but the wine in the palace attracted him.
After the singing girl danced, the next step was for the daughters of the noble clans to start fighting dances by presenting dances, hoping to show off at the banquet.
"Xiao Xi, which of these daughters is more eye-catching?" Chu Haotian suddenly approached him and whispered in his ear.
Xiao Xi was stunned for a moment, he just glanced at it unintentionally, he really couldn't tell which one to talk about.
"Which one is your lord looking for?" After a moment of silence, Xiao Xi asked instead of answering.
"I said which one I fancy, so what?"
"I will send someone to the mansion to propose a marriage, and I will be brought into the mansion as my wife." Xiao Xi said calmly, without any emotion in his eyes.
Chu Haotian smiled, and turned his gaze back to those daughters.It seems to be watching, but I don't know if I can see it.
The dance banquet came to an end first, and the courtiers began to present gifts to the empress dowager.
The empress dowager was very happy, and the emperor was naturally happy too.
"Everyone is polite! Hao'er, it's your turn. What gift did you prepare for mother?" The emperor looked at Chu Haotian expectantly.Just now I saw his lack of interest, but he wanted to see what tricks he could prepare.
"Mother, please forgive me, I didn't prepare a gift this year." Chu Haotian said lazily.
Chu Lingtian frowned, "Hao'er, don't mess around."
"Brother Huang, I really didn't mess around. Originally, I wanted to prepare a gift, but after I prepared it, I realized that the gift from my king was much inferior to the gift prepared by my concubine, so I asked someone to take it away."
"Oh? What did Xi'er prepare for Ai's family?" The Empress Dowager couldn't help being curious when she heard that Xiao Xi had prepared it.
Xiao Xi stood up and saluted the Empress Dowager, "What I prepared for my mother is a picture of Shoubi Nanshan painted by my own, which is a little clumsy. I hope my mother will not dislike it."
The palace man brought Xiao Xi's painting and unfolded it in front of everyone, and there was an uproar in an instant.
"We all heard that the son of Prime Minister Xiao's family is both talented and beautiful. When I saw him today, he was really extraordinary." A minister couldn't help but said.
Everyone and it.
The empress dowager was also very happy, and ordered someone to collect the scroll and put it in her palace.
"Okay!" The emperor waved his hand, "Xiao Xi, seeing that you have a heart this time, I will reward you with a reward. What do you want? I can satisfy you!"
Xiao Xi was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect the emperor to reward him.After thinking for a while, Xiao Xi joined hands with the emperor.
"I haven't thought about it yet, how about talking to the emperor when I think about it?"
"Okay, I agree! You can ask me if you have any requests in the future!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xiao Xi stepped back.
"You saved face for this king." Chu Haotian looked at him with a smile.
"That's why the prince pushed me out." Xiao Xi said indifferently.
Chu Haotian looked at Xiao Xi with a deep look in his eyes.
If Xiao Xi could figure it out by himself, there would be no need for Xiao Taozi to talk about it here.
"My lord, who are you going to make this painting for?" His young master has been painting on the desk all day today, and has never left the Yafeng Pavilion.
