Chapter 184 Charm 4
Chapter 184 Charm 4
Xuan Ling taught seriously, but unfortunately the only student was distracted.
When Shiyao came back to her senses after being in a daze, she saw Xuan Ling looking at her with a smile and asked, "What are you thinking about, Shiyao?"
Shiyao in a daze is so cute!
Shiyao was in a daze in front of him!
Thinking from another perspective, does this mean that Shiyao is gradually trusting him?
Shi Yao was caught slacking off by her boss. She felt guilty and a little embarrassed, and lowered her head to hide her expression.
Even though he couldn't see her face, Xuan Ling was still in a good mood, because someone's rosy ears had already exposed her inner shyness.
Shiyao is so cute when she is shy.
He really wanted to touch that fleshy earlobe to see if it was hot.
Keep this thought in mind for now, don’t rush.
Xuan Ling patiently repeated his teaching, and this time, the only student was listening carefully.
"Hmm~very well polished."
Shi Yao tried it out once, and Xuan Ling immediately praised her and recognized her results.
Shi Yao's lips curved up, then lowered, and she replied respectfully, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Shiyao is so cute when she expresses her gratitude sincerely!
It was just a compliment, but Shiyao thanked him in a serious manner. How could she be so cute!
Xuan Ling's heart softened. At this moment, he just wanted to lie on the ground and watch Shi Yao's every smile. If he was born in modern times, he would know that he was melted by Shi Yao's cuteness.
"Ahem," Xuan Ling coughed twice deliberately to calm himself down. He couldn't be so useless. "We've been grinding ink for so long, Shiyao, take a break."
Shi Yao glanced at the ink that had just been ground out of the grinding wheel. Although she didn't know how much ink was needed to write with a brush, this little bit was definitely not enough.
But she didn't say anything and went to rest obediently.
The palace maids had a special place to rest. Shi Yao didn’t know where it was, but she was not in a hurry. She planned to go out first and ask Xiao Xiazi and others who were waiting outside.
"Where are you going? Rest here."
Xuan Ling quickly spoke up to stop Shi Yao from leaving. He didn't want Shi Yao to leave his sight, so he asked her to rest next to him.
Whatever the boss says is what it is. Xuan Ling asked her to sit on the chair on the right side opposite the table, and Shi Yao sat down obediently.
This is where Xuan Ling receives ministers and reviews memorials. There are four chairs on the left and right sides of the table.
Xuan Ling asked Shiyao to sit at the first seat closest to the table, so that even if he lowered his head, he could still see the corner of Shiyao's clothes out of the corner of his eye.
This afternoon, Xuan Ling kept reviewing memorials. When he felt tired, he would look up to see Shi Yao, who was happy physically and mentally. Occasionally, he would take time to grind ink, feeling very happy.
But this was a torture for Shiyao. She was sitting on a mahogany chair. Although it was cushioned, it was still uncomfortable after sitting for a long time.
She wanted to walk around, but was afraid of attracting Xuan Ling's attention, so she sat there for a long time, enduring the discomfort.
They sat there until dinner time, when Xuan Ling stopped reviewing the memorials and Shi Yao was willing to stand up.
When Xuan Ling had meals, Su Peisheng had always been the one serving the dishes, but today this task was given to Shi Yao.
Shiyao was unhappy about the boss's order to increase the workload, but she still did it. After all, this was in the palace, and the emperor held the power of life and death over her.
But she had no idea of the emperor's taste, so she tasted and served dishes to him one by one, from near to far.
After tasting the delicious imperial meal, Shiyao felt that this job was not bad.
Xuan Ling thought so too, so he asked Shi Yao to serve the dishes.
There was a sweet dish. Shi Yao frowned, it was so greasy and sweet. She put down her official chopsticks, picked up the emperor's special chopsticks, and picked up a lot for him.
The two of them were close to each other, and Xuan Ling was staring at her the whole time, so he naturally noticed her little thoughts. He shook his head and smiled helplessly, then obediently ate all the sweet dishes in the bowl.
“When you take a dish you have already tasted, you should taste it again.”
Xuan Ling seemed to be reminding Shi Yao that what she did was wrong.
As expected, those eyes lit up.
Shi Yao immediately turned around and picked up a spicy imperial dish to test the poison again for the emperor.
Xuan Ling smiled. It turned out that she liked spicy food.
However, Xuan Ling had a bad spleen and stomach and was not suitable for spicy food. So when someone tasted the spicy dish for the fourth time, he said, "I don't like spicy food, so I'll give you this dish."
Sure enough, Shiyao immediately put down her dragon chopsticks, picked up the serving chopsticks and tasted other dishes. Her taste couldn't be any less spicy.
However, Su Peisheng, who was watching from behind Shi Yao, breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor's stomach really couldn't stand heavy food. It was just a coincidence today as the imperial kitchen rarely made spicy meals.
With the food in mind, Shiyao served the dishes much faster. Xuan Ling couldn't eat as fast as her, and a small pile of food formed in his bowl.
"Okay, okay, these dishes are enough, Shiyao, please sit down and eat with us."
Knowing someone wants to eat.
Shi Yao did not refuse and sat down without hesitation. In other words, she was having a meal with the emperor.
The emperor is worthy of being the emperor. After so long, he can still pretend.
Unlike those little perverts, their true colors would soon be revealed in front of her.
From this point of view, the emperor should be a senior invincible pervert.
I don’t know how long I can endure this.
Shi Yao was thinking wildly while eating. The better the emperor treated her, the more perverted he was. She had to be mentally prepared early.
I wonder how much more my worldview will be broken this time?
But thinking about her already shattered worldview, Shi Yao shook her head and thought it was unlikely.
so cute!
Why is Shiyao biting her chopsticks and shaking her head?
Xuan Ling had put down his chopsticks long ago and was staring at Shi Yao intently, stuffing food into his mouth like a little rabbit.
The royal family has strict etiquette when dining, and Xuan Ling has never seen someone as unrestrained as Shi Yao.
The urge to feed her came to his mind, and Xuan Ling couldn't help but pick up a dish for Shiyao.
He guessed that this was also Shiyao's favorite dish.
He guessed right, Shiyao really liked this dish. Just now she felt a little sorry that the emperor could eat this dish.
So Xuan Ling saw Shiyao's eyes shining again as he wished.
"Eat slowly, the rest is yours."
Forget it.
Shiyao refused in her heart but nodded blankly.
The emperor picked up the remaining dishes with chopsticks. Shiyao was disgusted, but she didn't say anything.
Even if Shi Yao didn't say it, Xuan Ling could know it. She couldn't hide the look in her eyes at all. Xuan Ling was really angry and amused.
It's unbelievable that he, the emperor, would have a day when he would be despised by others.
If it were anyone else, the dish bestowed by the emperor would be such an honor and gift.
But this is Shiyao.
Xuan Ling could only think helplessly, next time, I will give her a brand new one.
The imperial meal was small in portion but large in quantity, but Shi Yao didn’t touch the remaining dishes at all. She only ate the original one cleanly. Plus, she had tried quite a few dishes during the tasting, so she was full.
Next, Xuan Ling should rinse his mouth.
However, Su Peisheng, who was very observant, was leading the other eunuchs to clean the tables, leaving only Shi Yao idle.
Xuan Ling didn't want Shi Yao to help him rinse his mouth.
Although he was very happy that Shiyao stayed by his side all the time, he had just used spicy food. What if Shiyao saw the dirt when he rinsed his mouth?
Anyway, Xuan Ling was unwilling, "Su Peisheng, help me rinse my mouth."
This Su Peisheng is such a fool.
Su Peisheng was not stupid. He went to clean the table because he knew that the emperor wanted to spend more time with Miss Shiyao. Otherwise, how could he, a chief steward in the imperial court, do such rough work?
Unexpectedly, this time her guess about the emperor's intention was wrong and she even got a look from the emperor.
"Yes, Your Majesty," Su Peisheng rolled over quickly and gave a flattering smile, "Your Majesty, please do not bear grudges and forgive me this time."
"Old fool," Xuan Ling laughed. Su Peisheng really deserved to be punished for daring to speculate on the emperor's mind.
Shi Yao stood there doing nothing, watching the two men's eye contact blatantly, but not doing any work.
I won't work on my own initiative unless the boss gives the order.
Xuan Ling would never tell her to go to work, especially when he came back from rinsing his mouth and saw Shi Yao still standing there, blinking her big eyes at him, as if she was waiting for him to come back obediently.
My heart is melted again, so cute.
In this case, how could he bear to let Shiyao go to work!
I can’t bear to do it. I can’t bear to do it at all.
After dinner, Xuan Ling continued to review memorials and still asked Shi Yao to sit back.
But he found that Shiyao frowned.
Hmm? Unhappy? Unhappy?
"But what's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, I am not feeling unwell."
If she could continue to be lazy, Shiyao would not be stupid enough to offer suggestions. It was just that she was a little full after eating, and she could still endure it.
Shiyao didn't say anything and Xuan Ling didn't ask. Sooner or later, Shiyao would open her heart to him.
However, Xuan Ling thought about it and didn't expect it. After all, he always only ate until he was 70% full, so he wouldn't feel uncomfortable from being overeating.
Su Peisheng:!!!
The opportunity is coming!
He quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Your Majesty, could it be that Miss Shiyao is overfed?"
possible.
So he tried to suggest, "Well, I ate too much tonight, why don't we go for a walk in the Imperial Garden."
Ok? !
it is good!
Hearing this, Shiyao stood up immediately and wondered what the Imperial Garden looked like.
Xuan Ling gave Su Peisheng an appreciative look, well done.
