Chapter 324 Qiu Ziyue's Mischief
Chapter 324 Qiu Ziyue's Mischief
What made Madam Cao even happier was that Qiu Ziyue was kind-hearted and had a sweet tongue, which made her very happy.
As for whether Qiu Ziyue was a young woman or not, she had long since forgotten about it.
She couldn't help but pick up her chopsticks and savor the taste.
"Mother-in-law, it's only right that I be filial to you. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters."
Qiu Ziyue has a knack for sweet talk.
"Twilight Sparkle, you're such a wonderful person, of course Aya can't live without you."
"what"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Ziyue thought to herself:
"I originally wanted to cause trouble and leave, but I ended up doing the opposite. How could I be so stupid?"
But she still had to say something superficial:
"Mother-in-law, as long as you're happy, that's all that matters."
Li Cunxu looked at Qiu Ziyue with eyes full of admiration and joy, as if everything around him had become unimportant.
"You chefs,"
Li Cunxu suddenly spoke seriously.
"Come and try Princess Jin's cooking. What else do you have to complain about? Who dares to say anything bad about Princess Jin?"
The chefs turned pale with fright and quickly shook their heads, saying:
"No, no."
"Aren't you coming over and trying it? Or are you waiting for me to chop off your heads?"
Li Cunxu's tone was stern, but his eyes held a hint of mockery.
"Good good."
The chefs quickly picked up their chopsticks and carefully tasted the dishes on the table.
Soon, their faces showed expressions of surprise and admiration.
"Princess Consort Jin has excellent cooking skills! Princess Consort Jin's cooking is so delicious! Princess Consort Jin, we are all ashamed of our own inferiority!"
One of the chefs couldn't help but praise it.
Another chef nodded in agreement:
"The Princess Consort of Jin's cooking skills are simply unparalleled; we can only look up to her in awe."
Another chef said:
"I'm truly impressed that such delicious food can be made with the simplest ingredients and techniques."
Li Cunxu nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look at Qiu Ziyue, his eyes filled with pride.
Qiu Ziyue, however, said:
"The chefs are all very skilled. I may prefer home-style cooking, so we can exchange ideas and learn from each other in the future."
"Princess Consort of Jin, where did you learn such excellent cooking skills?"
A chef asked curiously.
Qiu Ziyue smiled slightly and said unconsciously:
"I learned it from Xiaohongshu on my phone."
The chefs looked at each other, puzzled.
"What is a mobile phone? And what is Xiaohongshu?"
Qiu Ziyue chuckled and shook her head:
"Never mind, you wouldn't understand even if I told you."
Everyone finished dinner happily.
A warm and cozy atmosphere filled the dining table.
It was as if, at this moment, all worries were left behind, leaving only the deep affection and love between them.
"Alright, you can leave now."
Li Cunxu said to the head chef.
The chefs quickly stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Yes, thank you for the Prince of Jin's mercy in sparing my life, and thank you for the Princess Consort of Jin's guidance."
Dinner continued after the chefs left.
This dinner not only brought them closer together, but also filled the entire Prince Jin's residence with warmth and harmony.
In this era full of uncertainties, mutual understanding and support are especially precious.
This incident not only saved the chef's life.
They learned many valuable lessons and also experienced the kindness of the Princess Consort of Jin.
Qiu Ziyue won the respect and love of everyone inside and outside the Prince Jin's mansion.
This was something Qiu Ziyue hadn't anticipated; she had originally wanted her image to collapse at the Prince Jin's residence.
But no matter what she does, she can't bring herself to be bad.
As night fell, the atmosphere between Qiu Ziyue and Li Cunxu in the bedroom of the Prince of Jin's residence became somewhat tense.
Qiu Ziyue quickly pushed Li Cunxu away, keeping a distance, her eyes revealing a hint of helplessness and anxiety.
"Cunxu, please, release Qi Yuxuan."
Qiu Ziyue pleaded again, her voice trembling slightly.
However, Li Cunxu remained expressionless, as if he had not heard her words.
Seeing this, Qiu Ziyue said angrily:
"Li Cunxu, I'm going crazy. Don't blame me for causing trouble. Nobody wants to have an easy time."
Li Cunxu responded with a light laugh:
"My wife, you can do whatever you want, as long as you don't leave me."
Qiu Ziyue took a deep breath, turned around and called Su Er over:
"Su Er, find me a few dancers and singers."
A moment later, several dancers and entertainers entered the bedroom.
They were dressed in gorgeous costumes, holding musical instruments, and ready to go.
However, Qiu Ziyue found the room too small and couldn't move around freely, so she suggested:
"Let's go to the courtyard; it's cooler outside and there's more space."
So, the group went to the courtyard.
The dancers began to dance gracefully.
The actors then began to play their respective instruments—the pipa, the xiao, the erhu, the xiqin, and so on.
The melodious music echoed in the night sky, and the Prince of Jin's mansion was instantly filled with lively activity.
Qiu Ziyue also joined in, dancing with the dancers.
Her dance was graceful and captivating, as if she were part of every musical note.
Li Cunxu watched all of this silently, without saying a word.
He went to the courtyard and sat down with the guards, poured some fine wine, and began to drink heartily.
Everyone in the mansion was drawn by the sudden commotion and came out of their rooms to watch.
When Madam Cao heard the music, she asked the servants what was going on.
The servant replied:
"It was Princess Jin who invited dancers and singers to sing and dance."
Madam Cao smiled slightly and shook her head:
"Our Prince Jin's residence hasn't been this lively in a long time. Let Princess Jin make a fuss."
As night deepened, music and dance filled the air, and the Prince of Jin's residence was filled with jubilation.
Qiu Ziyue expressed her dissatisfaction and emotions in this way.
Li Cunxu seemed to be responding to her in another way.
At this moment, the entire palace was immersed in noise and joy.
It was as if all worries had been left behind, leaving only the lively scene before my eyes.
In the courtyard, the music and dance gradually subsided.
Qiu Ziyue was tired from dancing, so she sat down at the table, picked up her glass, and wanted to drink.
You can't drink it.
Li Cunxu snatched the wine cup.
Qiu Ziyue suddenly spoke:
"Didn't you say that as long as I don't leave, it's fine? What's wrong with me having a drink?"
Li Cunxu immediately became serious:
"No, you're pregnant, you can't drink alcohol."
Qiu Ziyue frowned, a surge of dissatisfaction rising within her:
"Prince Jin, you're meddling too much. I just want to drink."
Li Cunxu sighed softly, his tone much gentler:
"You'd better not drink, why don't you sing a song instead?"
Qiu Ziyue was slightly taken aback, then nodded:
Do you know the song "The Beauty's Intoxication"?
The songstresses looked at each other and shook their heads.
"Bring me the pipa, and I'll sing for you."
Qiu Ziyue took the pipa, gently stroked the strings, and softly sang:
Three thousand weak waters
I only drink from one ladle.
There are always red flowers and fallen leaves.
It will eventually turn into a glimmer on your fingertips.
Slightly carried by the wind,
Her pencil-thin eyebrows furrowed slightly.
Lost in thought, tears welled up in my eyes.
Perhaps it is hiding in the darkness.
Therefore, I force a smile to make you happy even though my heart aches.
Rouge Flutter
……
She wrote this song when she was with Qi Yuxuan.
Memories flooded back, and tears welled up in her eyes, streaming down her cheeks.
The courtyard was quiet, except for her singing voice echoing in the night sky.
Li Cunxu sat quietly at the table, watching Qiu Ziyue's tears, his mind filled with countless thoughts.
He didn't interrupt her, but just watched her silently.
At that moment, he seemed to see the pain and struggle in her heart.
After Qiu Ziyue finished singing, the courtyard fell silent.
Li Cunxu couldn't help but recite a poem:
A thin silk robe adorned with gold phoenix patterns, its heavy weight accentuating her slender waist.
Smiling, I greet you as you stroll among the orchids, plucking the golden phoenix hairpin.
She is charming and affectionate, shyly playing with the strings of her heart.
The clouds and rain of Chu harmonize, and I dream of the Yangtai Terrace once more.
His voice was deep and gentle, as if responding to Qiu Ziyue.
Qiu Ziyue raised her head, her eyes filled with a complex emotion.
The atmosphere between the two seemed to have become more delicate.
"Everyone has worked hard. You can go and rest now."
Li Cunxu said.
After the dancers and entertainers bowed, they gradually withdrew, and the courtyard returned to its tranquility.
Qiu Ziyue stood up, preparing to go back to her room.
Li Cunxu followed behind her, but did not say anything more.
Although the music and dance music in the Prince of Jin's mansion had faded away that night, Qiu Ziyue's emotions remained unsettled for a long time.
She thought that by acting out, she could make everyone in the Prince of Jin's mansion dislike her, but she didn't expect the servants to return to their rooms.
They all said they watched a grand feast today; the Princess of Jin's dancing and singing were so beautiful, it was simply heavenly.
Qiu Ziyue's scheme to cause trouble has failed once again.
However, the courtyard was filled with the sounds of singing and dancing, as well as the chatter of the servants.
However, a few people hidden deep underground in the Prince of Jin's mansion heard and sensed it.
"Twilight Sparkle is sad again, we have to escape."
Thank you for reading.
