Quick Wear: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack
Chapter 6 Grinding
Xianxian, who knows the plot, knows clearly that Liu Zhen is not a tyrant, but a benevolent king.
During his reign, he loved his people and his country, and he devoted all his energy to considering the people's interests.
But although he was a wise ruler, he was not a good husband. The fact that Gao Liumin was able to grow old with him was completely a result of her waiting for the clouds to clear and the moon to come.
You know, Liu Zhen is a complete face control, but after he turned 40, the survival rate of princesses and princes in the palace was extremely low.
This also troubled Liu Zhen a lot, until Gao Liumin gave birth to Liu Zhen's only son at an advanced age, and he was also a noble legitimate son.
Looking back at the plot, it is not difficult to see that Liu Zhen fell in love with Gao Liumin after Gao Liumin gave birth to a legitimate son. As for how much love there was in it, no one knows.
The hall was very quiet. Xianxian was grinding and daydreaming, while Liu Zhen was seriously painting red plum blossoms.
It was not until Liu Zhen put down the pen that Xianxian came back to her senses. She could not help but look at the plum blossom picture on the paper.
"Does it look good?"
Xianxian nodded gently and replied, "It looks good. The red plum blossom is aloof yet charming. The plum branches are tenacious, and the red plum blossom is more noble because of it."
Unexpectedly, Xianxian actually started to appreciate it. Liu Zhen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and chuckled, "So which do you think is more beautiful, the red plum or the plum branch?"
At this time, Xianxian came to her senses and wanted to kneel down. After all, her behavior just now was impolite in front of the palace.
However, Liu Zhen was quick to catch her and even brought her towards herself.
Xianxian's face was slightly red. She had a beautiful and delicate appearance, but the touch of blush made her look even more charming.
Just like the red plum blossoms in the painting.
"Your Majesty, I am a humble servant with limited knowledge and talent, and I am not worthy of being in such a prestigious place. I just spoke too quickly. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Liu Zhen took his hand back and shook his head, saying, "What crime have I committed? You are right. The red plum blossom loses its soul without branches. Flowers need branches and leaves to set them off."
"I just wonder what kind of branches and leaves you need to set off this red plum blossom of yours?"
These words were completely meant to tease Xianxian. Even though Xianxian was thick-skinned, she couldn't help but lower her head and whispered.
"I am but a weakling."
That's simply too humble.
Liu Zhen put her fist in front of her mouth to hide her smile, and then did not refute Xianxian.
Since Liu Zhen grew up, she has never seen any woman as delicate and beautiful as Xianxian.
Even his favorite concubine Zhen, if she stood in front of Xianxian, she would be compared to a weakling.
Liu Zhen picked up the pen again and said, "You continue to polish it for me. I want to write another poem."
Xianxian nodded obediently and continued to grind, looking at Liu Zhen's paintings curiously from time to time.
When Li, the steward standing by, saw this scene, he felt that it was all right. It looked like there was going to be a big turmoil in the harem.
I had planned to stay in the Daqian Palace for a while before leaving, but I dawdled until noon.
The sun is shining high in the sky and Xianxian's belly is growling.
Liu Zhen couldn't help but look at her with amusement and asked, "Are you hungry?"
The sunset glow rose on her slender and pretty little face, and she looked extremely shy. She stopped what she was doing and even put her hands in front of her body.
Her tone was very obedient, "Your Majesty, I am guilty of misbehavior. Please forgive me."
For some reason, seeing Xianxian being so well-behaved, Liu Zhen raised his eyebrows slightly and put down the pen.
Liu Zhen has already investigated Xianxian's background thoroughly and knows that she is a bit arrogant by nature and is the type of person who will take revenge on the spot.
If she had a conflict with other palace maids, she would never let herself suffer any loss.
However, when he was in front of me, he acted very awkward.
How can you not feel cramped?
The original body was too straightforward, which made Liu Zhen lose interest in her early on.
Xianxian would not make a mistake. She has only met Liu Zhen twice. It would be bad if she was too presumptuous.
Even if you want to be unrestrained, you need an opportunity.
"Little Li, serve the meal. I'm hungry."
Even after the table was filled with delicious food, Liu Zhen had no intention of letting Xianxian leave.
You know, the palace maids have meals at noon, but if it’s past that time, they will just have to wait to go hungry.
Unless the palace maid paid for it herself, she also had to use her connections to find the imperial kitchen, only then could she get some food from the eunuchs in the imperial kitchen.
But the cost is too high and it is totally not worth it.
The aroma of food surrounded her nose, and Xianxian could only bite her lower lip, lower her head and say nothing.
Liu Zhen looked at her and chuckled and asked, "Are you hungry?"
She knew she was hungry and her stomach was rumbling loudly, but Liu Zhen just had a bad taste in her mouth.
Even though Xianxian tried to control her temper, she could no longer pretend at this moment.
She quickly raised her head, her small face the size of a palm showing stubbornness and her beautiful eyes showing anger.
"Your Majesty has read so many books, why are you asking questions when you already know the answer? It's almost noon, so I'm naturally hungry."
Xianxian seemed to have taken off all her disguises and even snorted as soon as she finished speaking. She was truly willful and lovable.
Butler Li, who was serving food to Liu Zhen, paused slightly and couldn't help but cast a subtle look at Xianxian.
What a little girl! She is so impatient. Don't scare His Majesty. Otherwise, how will you explain to Aunt Bai?
I thought Liu Zhen would be angry, but she was still smiling.
"That's perfect. I'll eat while you watch. This way, it will be more delicious."
Xianxian: ???
You eat and ask me to watch on an empty stomach?
Nothing wrong?
Xianxian widened her eyes and pursed her lips without saying anything, but there was anger in her eyes that she dared not speak.
Perhaps Liu Zhen was delighted by Xianxian's little appearance, and quickly asked the steward Li beside her to bring a bowl of chicken soup.
The chicken soup was made with all kinds of precious ingredients, and even Xianxian could smell the rich aroma. You could tell it was fresh, fragrant and delicious without even looking at it.
Liu Zhen stirred it with a spoon with mischief, and the fragrance kept coming towards Xianxian.
After Liu Zhen finished drinking the chicken soup, he started to eat the dishes again. He would ask Manager Li to pick up whatever dish Xianxian set her eyes on.
Xianxian really wanted to go up and overturn all the delicious food on the table. Since she couldn't eat it herself, she would also let Liu Zhen have nothing to eat.
Unfortunately, she couldn't do that and could only stand by and keep silent, staring down at her embroidered shoes.
Seeing that Xianxian lowered her head and no longer looked at him, Liu Zhen also felt it was boring. After eating, he washed his hands and rinsed his mouth and looked at Xianxian.
"Are you still hungry?"
At this time, Xianxian was already feeling dizzy and fell forward before she could answer.
Oh no, my face is going to be disfigured.
Liu Zhen was quick to hug Xianxian and carried her horizontally into the inner room.
"Go and call an imperial physician."
But as soon as she entered the inner room, Xianxian said weakly with a pale face, "Your Majesty, please let this servant have a bite."
"Okay, okay, I'll give you a bite."
Before anyone else could react, Liu Zhen picked up a piece of cake and placed it next to Xianxian's mouth.
Xianxian took small bites of the cake with her pearly teeth and ate it. After a piece of the cake was gone, she felt much better.
But at this time Xianxian also found something wrong. In order to feed her cakes, Liu Zhen kept holding her in his arms.
The two of them were very close to each other.
Xianxian blushed and reminded, "Your Majesty, I am much better now, you can put me down now."
After hearing Xianxian's words, Liu Zhen reacted. Although he let her go, he felt a sense of unspeakable loss in his heart.
When Steward Li came over with the imperial physician, Liu Zhen was sitting on a stool beside the bed, but he was staring at the ring on his hand in a daze.
It was not until he heard the imperial physician's salute that Liu Zhen came back to his senses and looked at Xianxian.
The imperial physician took Xianxian's pulse carefully. Although he didn't know Xianxian's identity, the Daqian Palace was where the emperor held meetings. A woman who could lie on the dragon bed must be extraordinary.
Therefore, Doctor Wang did not dare to be careless at all.
Seeing Doctor Wang taking the pulse for a long time, Liu Zhen couldn't help but ask, "How is it? What happened? Why did he faint for no reason?"
Doctor Wang looked at Liu Zhen and reported, "Your Majesty, this girl is fine. She just has insufficient Qi and blood. She didn't eat anything in the morning, which is why she fainted. She needs to take good care of herself and eat on time."
"I will prescribe some nourishing medicine for this girl. She will be cured if she takes it for ten days."
Does this require medication?
Xianxian said with resistance in her eyes, "No, I am a lowly servant, I don't need the imperial physician to prescribe medicine for me to take every day, next time I will just eat on time."
This is actually hypoglycemia. She didn’t eat in the morning, and Liu Zhen kept tempting her with food.
Xianxian was already feeling hungry, and the temptation was too much for her to bear, so she fainted.
Liu Zhen frowned slightly and said, "I am also half responsible for this. You must drink this medicine every day. Little Li, accompany the imperial physician back to get the medicine. Make sure it is boiled and served to me."
By the time the medicine is ready, I don’t know how long it will take.
Xianxian doesn't want to develop so quickly. You know, the harder something is to get, the more precious it is when you get it.
But seeing that Liu Zhen was determined, Xianxian could only choose to give up struggling.
Forget it, it’s just some medicine, I’ll go home after taking it.
But it was not as simple as Xianxian thought, because Liu Zhen asked someone to bring her some delicious meat porridge.
What’s more important is that Liu Zhen personally brought the porridge to her. Xianxian looked at the meat porridge and Liu Zhen in front of her without saying a word.
Liu Zhen was surprised and said, "Eat it, but don't let others think that I treat you unfairly."
At this time, Xianxian stood up in panic and knelt on the bed obediently.
Her voice was trembling a little, "Your Majesty, I am much better now, please let me eat the porridge by myself."
The temperature in the room suddenly dropped. You have to know that Liu Zhen was a king, and no one had ever refused him anything.
But Xianxian just avoided him like the plague, which made Liu Zhen feel uncomfortable.
However, he did not show any anger. Instead, he put down the bowl of porridge in his hand and nodded.
"Okay, eat it yourself."
Liu Zhen stood up and left the inner room directly, and Xianxian then breathed a sigh of relief.
She softened her body but did not dare to lie on the dragon bed again. She steadied herself and got out of bed.
At this time, a young eunuch came forward to support Xianxian, "Miss, be careful, I will support you."
Xiao Luzi had been waiting nearby just now, but Xianxian didn't notice him.
Now that she was suddenly supported, Xianxian was still struggling a little out of habit.
Faced with Xianxian's struggle, Xiao Luzi wisely let go of her hand. At this time, Xianxian looked at him and asked.
"Are you the eunuch serving in the Great Palace?"
"I am the godson of Li Zongguan, my name is Xiaoluzi. When Li Zongguan left just now, he asked me to look after the girl."
It turned out to be Butler Li's arrangement, but Xianxian didn't ask any more questions.
However, Xiao Luzi became a little anxious, because he knew that Xianxian in front of him was his designated future master.
So he hurried forward to pour tea for Xianxian, and took the opportunity to serve tea, speaking in an especially low voice.
"I have met Aunt Bai before, so I know the arrangement between Aunt Bai and my godfather. But I just saw the young lady lose face to His Majesty, and I really don't understand..."
"When I first saw the girl, I knew she would achieve great things in the future. Only if she is good can I be good."
After Xiao Luzi finished speaking, he placed the teacup respectfully in front of Xianxian, which made Xianxian couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.
This person surrendered to himself.
In fact, Aunt Bai had mentioned Xiao Lu in front of Xianxian, otherwise Manager Li would not have taken so much trouble for Xianxian.
Xianxian picked up the teacup and smiled softly, her movements were elegant and her tone was cold, but her next words made Xiao Luzi's eyes light up.
"Remember, things that are too easy to get will naturally be easily forgotten. Since you have shown your loyalty, why don't you do something for me?"
Facing Xianxian's half-smiley eyes, Xiao Luzi nodded firmly and said, "Miss, just give your orders."
