There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 31 Listen to what people say?

"Your Highness!"

Concubine Liu was acting coquettishly.

"You've been dealing with it for so long, what's the harm in taking a break?"

"This is stewed by the concubine herself, why don't you try it!"

She is confident that she is the most favored person in the backyard now, and she used to act like a baby at any time before, and this time she will definitely...

"Xiangyue!" Xia Houjue's face turned even colder: "Take it away!"

Unwilling to give up, Liu Xiangyue rolled her eyes.

"Why don't I try it for you first?"

Xia Houjue's eyes suddenly turned cold: "It seems... Gu is too tolerant of you!"

Liu Xiangyue was terrified by this look, she put the bowl aside tremblingly, and knelt down.

"The concubine..."

"Your Highness, this concubine knows I'm wrong, I'm in a hurry, please Your Highness..."

"In a hurry?" Xia Houjue sneered and narrowed his eyes.

"How many times has Gu reminded you?"

"I...I" Liu Xiangyue was tearful and pitiful.

"I beg Your Highness to forgive the concubine this time, the concubine will never dare again..."

Xia Houjue sneered.

"Come here! Mrs. Liu is rude, uttered lies, and is banned for half a month as a punishment!"

Liu Xiangyue walked forward crying.

"No!"

"Your Highness, the concubine only cares about you! If the concubine finds out she's wrong, you can punish me however you want, don't ground yourself!"

Thinking of the days when she was grounded last month, she felt like dying.

"Li Dequan, take it away!!" Xia Houjue didn't bother to give her another chance.

Li Dequan entered the door with his head bowed, and brought two young eunuchs to drag Side Concubine Liu up.

"My lady, please!"

Liu Xiangyue cried and shouted unwillingly.

"Your Highness! I don't want to be grounded, Your Highness!"

"I beg Your Highness to be merciful, the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in less than half a month, and there will be autumn hunting, my concubine doesn't want to be grounded, Your Highness..."

She shouted miserably and cried pitifully, but unfortunately... Xia Houjue couldn't hear her!
Li Dequan was not in a good mood: "I said Madam Liu, His Highness finally changed his mind, why are you bothering?"

Concubine Liu cried and spat at him.

"Bah! Dog slave, I want you to take care of it!"

……

The unlucky side concubine Liu was grounded again, the news spread all over the backyard, and the wives rejoiced.

Gao Liangyuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, if Mrs. Liu finds out that she has betrayed, I'm afraid she won't let it go!" '

Concubine Meng said: "That bitch deserves it!" ! '

In the afternoon, when Tang Wan came back from practicing her arrows, she also heard the news.

She frowned and complained while drinking tea: "That bastard, what kind of crazy is it!"

Could it be that the woman in the backyard is his pet, he teases it when he is happy, and locks him up if he is not?
In this regard, Xia Houjue himself said brazenly: Yes, that's it!

……

Time passed day by day, and the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching.

Tang Wan practiced harder and harder, went out earlier and earlier, and came back later and later.

Today she came back from the dark again.

When she was bathing and changing, Bi Luo felt distressed when she saw the bruise on her arm: "Master, why do you push yourself so hard?"

Tang Wanning's eyes were firm: "Who told me to be lazy before, Dad is going to Beijing, I must not embarrass him!"

Suddenly thinking of something, she called Bi Yue.

"I remember I got a set of the Four Treasures of the Study from Huizhou a while back. It was of excellent quality. I wrapped it up and gave it to the Fourth Prince as a thank you gift!"

Although the relationship between the prince and Xia Houyan is not good, after all, he has been guiding him for so long.

As the elder sister-in-law, it is very appropriate to give a set of the Four Treasures of the Study to be upright and solemn, and to maintain the superficial relationship!

Bi Yue responded with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this slave will definitely handle it well!"

Tang Wanning leaned her head against the edge of the tub and said no more.

The next day, she still got up before dawn to go to the school field to practice hard.

……

After so many days of hard practice, she has been able to complete the triple arrow method, but she is still not proficient and needs more practice.

Xia Houyan praised from the sidelines from time to time.

"Third sister-in-law is indeed worthy of being the daughter of a great general. She is really smart, she can understand a little bit, and she can do it with practice!"

Tang Wanning smiled and said, "You have good eyesight!"

Isn't it an undeniable fact that I am extremely smart?Only that bastard Xia Houjue thought he was stupid.

Xia Houyan couldn't hold back her smile: "Sister-in-law San is so humorous!"

Tang Wanning smiled politely: "You are not bad either, you are kind, capable in literature and martial arts, and knowledgeable!"

"In the future, if you marry a princess and leave the palace, you will be able to enter the court and do business! You will definitely be valued by the emperor!"

Saying 'bang' a few times, he fired the arrows in his hand, three consecutive shots, all of which hit the bull's-eye.

Tang Waning raised her head proudly, feeling more and more cheerful.

Xia Houyan blushed, a little embarrassed.

"Where is it, third sister-in-law don't want to make fun of me!"

The two always kept a distance of three steps, but they talked and laughed, and the atmosphere was harmonious.

……

When Xia Houjue appeared on the school field, he saw the two people in front of the target at a glance.

They didn't know what they were talking about, and they seemed to be laughing happily.

One is dressed in a red dress, smiling proudly, with a spring face, and the other is wearing a silver python robe, with a relaxed expression and a humble demeanor.

Among the vast crowd in the school grounds, the two men looked so eye-catching.

What kind of system is this? ! !Xia Houjue's face became darker and darker.

"Li Dequan!"

"The slave is here!"

"Go..." He wanted to ask someone to call the princess over.

But thinking about it again, in front of so many people, it would seem too petty to rashly call the princess away.

"That's all!" He waved his hands expressionlessly: "You stand still and go alone!"

Li Dequan scratched his head in a daze, the crown prince... is unhappy again?

The princess concubine didn't seem to do anything, besides...don't you hate the concubine? !
After thinking about it for a long time, Li Dequan couldn't figure it out, so he gave up.

Lord's heart, sea needle!
……

"See Your Royal Highness!"

"See Your Royal Highness!"

The sound of people saluting intermittently came from around.

Tang Wanning turned her head and saw Xia Houjue walking towards here with a dark face.

She looked a little uncomfortable, but she had to put down her bow and arrow to greet her.

"I have seen His Royal Highness!"

Xia Houyan also clasped her fists with a smile: "Third Brother!"

"Ok!"

"Don't be too polite!"

He stood beside Tang Wanning with a dark face, and stood very close.

"I heard that the fourth brother has been teaching your third sister-in-law how to practice archery recently. I wonder how you are doing?"

As he spoke, he made an extremely unnatural smile, and looked coldly at Xia Houyan who was three steps away from him.

"So the third brother came here for this!" Xia Houyan smiled decently.

"The third sister-in-law was born in the general family, she is ice-snow and smart, and my younger brother dare not speak boldly, but just learn from each other!!"

Xia Houjue hugged Tang Wanning's waist and explained with a faint smile.

"A few days ago, I had no free time, and I couldn't accompany your third sister-in-law over here. I have to work for my fourth brother!"

"I'll be free for the next few days, so let the fourth brother take a good rest!"

Tang Wanning "..." Listen, are these words spoken by people?
It's fine if he doesn't teach himself, and it's unreasonable not to let others teach.

Xia Houyan froze for a moment, then smiled decently.

"My brother dare not!"

After a pause, he took a step back and smiled again.

"Since the third brother is here, I won't bother you, I will leave!"

"Ok!"

Seeing that he was still on the right track, Xia Houjue nodded in satisfaction.
