Chapter 178 Don’t come tomorrow

"She's feeling better today, but she didn't listen to someone's advice and insisted on coming here. She said she promised you before that when she feels better, she'll cook noodles with you every day."

"Even so-and-so doesn't have this kind of treatment." Li Shimin sighed again, but the envy in his eyes was beyond words.

Zhao Chen became increasingly silent.

"The noodles are cooked. Come on, I'll fry a poached egg for each of you." Empress Changsun and Li Ruoshuang each walked into the tavern carrying a large bowl of noodles.

Two bowls of noodles were placed in front of Zhao Chen and Li Shimin respectively.

There were two fried, slightly browned poached eggs in the bowl.

The one in the bowl in front of Zhao Chen was fine, but the one in Li Shimin's side was getting darker and darker. .??.

"I haven't made it for a long time, and my skills are rusty. Please try it first to see if it tastes good." Empress Changsun handed the chopsticks to Zhao Chen's hand.

He sat down next to Zhao Chen and looked at Zhao Chen with a doting look on his face.

"We just had lunch." Zhao Chen said.

"That's it." A trace of disappointment flashed across Queen Changsun's face, and she immediately forced out a smile and said, "It's okay. If you're not hungry, just leave it for now. I'll come over early tomorrow at noon."

"My health is much better now. I can come here every day from now on. How are you doing? If you have any problems, just tell Ruoshuang. I have already made an agreement with her. Just ask..."

Queen Changsun was chattering away.

Li Shimin was eating noodles and saw that Zhao Chen had no reaction at all, and his anger rose again.

"Zhao Chen, how can you be so helpless..."

"Stop talking." Empress Changsun grabbed Li Shimin and said quickly.

Li Shimin looked away with an angry look on his face.

"Zhao Chen, it's okay. I just chatted a little bit. It's getting late too early. I'll come back tomorrow at noon." Empress Changsun smiled and said to Zhao Chen.

He just pulled Li Shimin and walked outside.

Looking back at Zhao Chen, she saw that Zhao Chen was still sitting where he was, with no intention of coming to see her off.

Queen Changsun felt bitter in her heart and had tears in her eyes.

Spin.

"Forget it, don't come here again, just pretend we have never met." Li Shimin said from the side, his face full of anger.

Queen Changsun said nothing and walked towards the carriage.

"The veins in the lungs still need to be cleared. Don't come tomorrow. I'll go to the palace to see you." Zhao Chen's voice came from far behind him.

…

"Am I being too harsh on them?"

In the tavern, Zhao Chen looked at the steaming noodles on the table and asked Li Ruoshuang.

Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen and nodded seriously.

"Zhao Chen, the empress just now told me that she knows that if she conceals her identity, you will definitely find her out in the end."

"But if I don't hide it from you, if you get too close to her, some people will definitely be jealous and want to get rid of you. She is here, so she can naturally protect you."

"But if she is gone..."

"Before, I thought that the empress wanted to get something from you, but she didn't. On the contrary, she knew that she couldn't hold on for much longer, but she wanted to experience the ten thousand years of auspiciousness with you. She knew that it was because of you. from."

"If you say I'm sorry, I really have nothing to apologize to you for."

"To be honest, even if you are interested in the Crown Prince and the King of Wei, your Majesty has never been so caring."

Li Ruoshuang said slowly.

Even she was curious as to why Queen Changsun treated Zhao Chen like this.

That is simply better than his own son.

"This is the reason why I am angry. I, Zhao Chen, am just an ordinary person. I was born with an angry illness for sixteen years. Why does the Queen treat me like her own child?"

"Is it possible that I am really her son?" Zhao Chen sighed, holding chopsticks in his hand.

Pick up one

I stuffed a lot of noodles into my mouth.

"Ahem——"

"Slow down." Li Ruoshuang patted Zhao Chen on the back and poured him a cup of tea.

"The way you are angry makes people feel that you are a real person." Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen with a smile and said.

"Am I unreal on weekdays?" Zhao Chen said vaguely.

"You are usually too calm. When talking to others, you always stay completely awake. You have everything planned in advance." ??

"Sometimes I just wonder what it would be like when you cry."

"Hehe, okay, everything is over. I will enter the palace with you tomorrow, and you will be the same as before." Li Ruoshuang said to Zhao Chen with a smile.

Zhao Chen picked up the bowl, raised his head and drank the soup.

"Help clean up, Lao Cheng and Xiao Qin will be back later." Zhao Chen put down the bowls and chopsticks and said to Li Ruoshuang, his expression restored to his original state.

…

"Brother, this time the old man heard that I wanted to do business with you, he was very generous. He directly gave me 10,000 yuan. Isn't that generous?"

"Hey, I have more here. My father said that as long as you follow Zhao Chen, you can take out as much as you can."

"Twelve thousand strings, hey, isn't that interesting enough?"

Not long after, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu returned carrying a box of gold leaves.

Both of them had red faces and looked proud.

Even they themselves didn't expect that their old man didn't even hesitate when he heard that he was doing business with Zhao Chen.

Just let people take the money out.

"Brother, come here, I have something to tell you." Cheng Yaojin suddenly waved to Zhao Chen mysteriously.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Chen was stunned for a moment.

"you

Come here, I'll talk to you again. Cheng Chumo glanced at Li Ruoshuang beside Zhao Chen and whispered.

Li Ruoshuang frowned, but said nothing.

"What can't be said in person?" Zhao Chen was pulled to the corner by Cheng Chumo.

Cheng Chumo carefully looked back at Li Ruoshuang who was clearing away the dishes and chopsticks to make sure she was not approaching. Then he leaned into Zhao Chen's ear and said, "Well, my old man asked you if you want him to introduce you to a marriage... "

"What kind of marriage?"

"What kind of marriage? What kind of marriage is Lu Guogong going to introduce to Zhao Chen?"

Cheng Chumo ignored Li Ruoshuang's hearing.

Even the smallest voice was heard by Li Ruoshuang, who was extremely skilled.

Before Cheng Chumo could finish speaking, Li Ruoshuang kicked him over.

Cheng Chumo was kicked directly into the corner.

"sister in law……"

"You call me sister-in-law, but you want to introduce marriage to Zhao Chen behind your back. Cheng Chumo, are you doing personnel matters?" Li Ruoshuang said angrily, and a faint chill enveloped the tavern.

Qin Huaiyu gritted his teeth and thought to himself that he just didn't say what his old man asked him to ask Zhao Chen.

otherwise……

"I tell you two, if I hear either of you planning to introduce marriage to Zhao Chen again, I will hang you directly in front of your respective mansions." Li Ruoshuang said, and glanced at Qin Huaiyu behind him.

Qin Huaiyu quickly shook his head and said hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, I have the conscience of heaven and earth. You are the only sister-in-law in my heart. If anyone dares to introduce anyone other than you to Zhao Chen, I will not be the first to spare him."

"Zhao Chen, Uncle Fu will come back tonight and tell me what you want to eat. I'll see if I can make it first." Li Ruoshuang said to Zhao Chen with a smile.

It was completely different from the shrewish woman who wanted to eat people just now.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu secretly said that women are really fickle tigers. If you can't defeat a tiger, you should not mess with them.
