Chapter 787: Delicate, cant be happy

Housekeeper Cao hesitated outside the courtyard for a long time. But in the end, he rushed into the study at the risk of being punished, explained his intentions vigorously, then stood there with his head down, waiting for Xiao Tianyao to pronounce his sentence.

“Wangfei is waiting for benwang to eat?” Xiao Tianyao didn’t answer immediately but asked thoughtfully.

Housekeeper Cao felt uneasy. Because Xiao Tianyao replied a little late. He quickly replied: “Answering back wangye, yes. Wangfei has been waiting for you for more than half an hour.” He never forgets to speak good words for their princess in front of their prince. It wasn’t easy to be a housekeeper.

“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao nodded lightly, and stood up leisurely: “Go tell her, she can prepare the meal.”

“Yes, yes.” Housekeeper Cao’s eyes lit up when he heard this. His whole body became energetic, he nodded hastily and stepped back.

He knew it. He knew it was very likely that their prince would leave his official duties and have dinner with the princess, he bet right!

Knowing that his steps were not fast enough, Housekeeper Cao quickly ordered someone to notify Lin Chujiu, while he waited for Xiao Tianyao to lead the way.

There were no maidservants and mamas in Xiao Wangfu, unlike other houses. The servants in the front yard can’t enter the backyard. Housekeeper Cao led the way in front until he reached Lin Chujiu’s yard, and then he said: “Wangye, please.”

Xiao Tianyao took the lantern from Housekeeper Cao, and walked in slowly and politely, with an unchanged expression on his face. But in his heart, he was thinking about why Lin Chujiu waited for him to have dinner together.

Lin Chujiu’s brain circuit. Even if he can’t guess 10 points, he can guess 8 points. Lin Chujiu asked Housekeeper Cao to invite him to dinner, it was not to promote the relationship between the husband and wife or to please him.

That woman never thought of currying favor with him!

“Chances are it is related to the celebration banquet.” Or at most, she wanted to find out about the movements in the capital from him.

“This slave greets wangye. May wangye live a thousand years.” Zhenzhu and Manao who got the news had long been waiting outside the courtyard. And when they saw Xiao Tianyao walking in, they immediately saluted.

Of course, they did not forget to keep a proper distance, so as not to upset their prince.

“Wangfei, wangye is here.” Fecui and Shanshan were waiting in the inner room, when they heard the voice from the outer room, they immediately went in and asked Lin Chujiu to come out.

The timing was just right. When Xiao Tianyao walked to the dining room, Lin Chujiu also came out.

“Greetings to wangye.” Lin Chujiu slightly bent her knees, and Xiao Tianyao motioned her to get up before she finished saluting.

Lin Chujiu was not hypocritical and said with a smile: “It’s so late, wangye must be hungry, let’s eat first.”

“Mmm.” Xiao Tianyao nodded. Seeing that most of the dishes on the table were his favorite dishes, he was more tolerant of Lin Chujiu’s little thoughts: “Next time, let the servants tell me directly, there is no need to wait. “

Although Lin Chujiu had a purpose, in the end, she spent her mind on it. He has never had high demands on Lin Chujiu.

“I don’t dare to disturb wangye’s work, please, wangye.” She felt that it was rare for her to deliberately wait for Xiao Tianyao to have a meal.

The two took their seat one after another. Lin Chujiu knew the rules on the table and waited until Xiao Tianyao moved his chopsticks first before picking up her rice bowl and eating slowly.

Lin Chujiu was not like an ordinary young lady in a boudoir who sits still all day long. She exercises a lot and digests quickly. She eats a lot on weekdays. Today, she has been running all the way. Although she was extremely tired, it does not affect her appetite.

Lin Chujiu maintained excellent table manners, but she also ate deliciously. She finished a bowl of rice in a short time, and the speed was not much slower than Xiao Tianyao.

It was not the first time for Xiao Tianyao to eat at the same table as Lin Chujiu, but it was the first time to eat at the same table with her in Xiao Wangfu. Seeing Lin Chujiu back at the mansion, but acting as casual as she was on the military camp, the smile on his face couldn’t help but increase.

He doesn’t have high demands on Lin Chujiu, but he doesn’t want to face a woman who treats him falsely all day long.

What he fell in love with was the real Lin Chujiu.

It was a late meal, but both parties were very satisfied. Xiao Tianyao ate more than usual tonight, and he didn’t realize that he was too full until he put down his chopsticks.

“Wangye, why don’t you go out with me for a walk outside to digest your food.” Lin Chujiu also ate a little more today, but even if she didn’t eat much, she was used to taking a walk after meals.

“Okay.” His wife invited him, how can he, the husband refuse, right?

Knowing that Xiao Tianyao didn’t like maidservants around, Lin Chujiu didn’t bring Zhenzhu and the others, so the two left the house one after the other, and walked unhurriedly towards the grass in the front yard.

Lin Chujiu doesn’t like places that were too dark. At night, Zhenzhu and Manao will light a few lamps and place them in every corner of the grass. Although the light from the candles was limited, it was better than nothing.

At least, when Lin Chujiu and Xiao Tianyao were walking on the grass at this time, they won’t lose sight of their fingers, and they won’t lose sight of each other. The faint candlelight shone on the two of them, hazy and warm. The two of them walked slowly with a bit different atmosphere.

After walking for dozens of steps, Lin Chujiu saw that the atmosphere was fine, so she asked: “Wangye, what’s the matter with Imperial Concubine Zhou and the Lin family?” If something happened to the Lin family, the Meng family would be affected to some extent.

If the Lin family was really stupid enough to take the initiative to seek refuge with Imperial Concubine Zhou, then she must make plans for the Meng family in advance.

Xiao Tianyao had been prepared for a long time, so he didn’t find it unpleasant to hear Lin Chujiu’s straightforward question. He said calmly: “Don’t worry, the Zhou family’s calculations have nothing to do with the Lin family.” With the third prince on the line, there will be no danger.

However, according to his understanding of Prime Minister Lin, he may not be able to control him.

“It’s good if it’s not the Lin family’s doing.” Lin Chujiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: “What about the crown prince? Is it the Lin family’s plan?” She thought at first that no matter how stupid the crown prince was, he would not do such a thing.

“Yes.” Xiao Tianyao nodded. Thinking of the friendship between Lin Chujiu and Xiao Zian, Xiao Tianyao frowned slightly: “In the future, stay away from Xiao Zian.”

Lin Chujiu represented not only herself but also Xiao Wangfu.

“I understand, I will keep a distance from Imperial Concubine Zhou.” The Zhou family and Imperial Concubine Zhou made a move. It doesn’t matter what the third prince thinks. He was in that position and cannot retreat.

It was just, it was a pity that he was like a fairy-like character.

Xiao Tianyao was very satisfied with Lin Chujiu’s obedience, so he couldn’t help but say something more: “Tomorrow benwang will accompany you into the palace, so you don’t have to worry.” Back then, he didn’t accompany Lin Chujiu into the palace when they got married, so Lin Chujiu was almost caught off guard. Tomorrow… will serve as his compensation.

Tomorrow, the emperor, empress, and crown prince better be sensible and not fall into his hands, otherwise, he will never be polite to combine new and old grudges.

“Thank you, wangye. With wangye by my side, I won’t have to worry about tomorrow.” Lin Chujiu’s eyes lit up, and she thanked him cheerfully.

Xiao Tianyao looked at Lin Chujiu, who was charming, and smiled sweetly. He couldn’t help being in a good mood. However, Xiao Tianyao couldn’t laugh anymore in the next second, because… …
