Chapter 548: Burning pain
She made up all sorts of things about Wu Xirou in her mind, but Anya didn't show it on her face. Xu Sheng replied: "Qin Liangdi has been sleeping with me these days. I wonder what Sister Wu thinks?"
When Wu Xirou heard Anya calling herself her sister, she felt disapproving.
She looked at Anya with an indifferent expression: "Sister Qin has always been favored. Isn't it normal for His Highness the Crown Prince to ask Sister Qin to sleep with him?"
She didn't think that the friendship between Xiao Ce and Qin Zhao would be broken easily.
It's not like you just like a man like Xiao Ce when you meet him. After all these years since he became the prince, there is only one Qin Zhao that Xiao Ce treats with special treatment.
And she had just entered the East Palace and had just entered Xiao Ce's sight. She would never be so arrogant that she could easily replace Qin Zhao's position.
She had known for a long time that although Xiao Ce had not interacted with Qin Zhao these days, he was not neglecting Qin Zhao. It was just because Qin Zhao did not come to see him and he was busy that it gave the false impression that Xiao Ce was neglecting Qin Zhao.
Unfavorable rumors about Qin Zhao came out here. Xiao Ce immediately dropped all the business he was doing, just to calm the rumors for Qin Zhao and divert the trouble to the east.
This is Xiao Ce's feelings for Qin Zhao. He usually doesn't show off his feelings, but at critical moments, he will unconditionally stand behind Qin Zhao and clear the way for Qin Zhao.
At this time, she had to admit one thing. Unless Qin Zhao and Xiao Ce completely broke up one day, it would be impossible for the two people to end their friendship.
"There was a time when I thought that Sister Wu could replace Qin Liangdi and become the person His Royal Highness cares about most. Who knew that Sister Wu was nothing more than that." Anya raised her lips sarcastically.
Wu Xirou smiled with her eyebrows: "I don't have much ability, and I'm much worse than Sister Qin. But I'm always more than I am, but I'm more than enough. I'm also a contented person, I can freely enter and leave the main hall, and I'm in front of His Highness the Crown Prince every day.
Serving the pen and ink is the greatest blessing to me."
She did have ambitions and desires before, but now it is a great honor for her to get a piece of the pie in Qin Zhao's hands.
She also knows that people's desires are endless, so it is better to do what you can first, get the share you can get, and then plan carefully later.
No matter what, she is much better than Anya and others.
Hearing the sarcasm in Wu Xirou's tone, Anya slowed down, turned to look at Wu Xirou, and curled her lips sarcastically: "So my sister is only good at this. If Qin Liangdi can eat meat, my sister will be satisfied with some soup."
Is that all?"
"What I'm most afraid of is that there are people who can't even drink soup but still think highly of themselves." Wu Xirou didn't show weakness and retorted.
Anya's face changed slightly. She wanted to fight back, but found that Wu Xirou didn't wait for her and walked forward in a familiar way.
When she came to the main hall for the first time, she didn't dare to stay alone because she was afraid of getting lost and making a joke, so she quickly followed.
One day she will walk in front of Wu Xirou, and then Wu Xirou will act based on her expression.
Wu Xirou entered the study room first, and she stepped forward and saluted Xiao Ce.
At this time, Anya also chased in. Her sudden appearance made Xiao Ce fixate his eyes.
Anya received Xiao Ce's confused eyes and suddenly understood one thing. His Highness the Crown Prince did not know who she was, and her position in the East Palace was quite high, but His Highness the Crown Prince did not know her. What could be more disturbing to her than this?
Chilling, is there anything more ironic?
Of course Wu Xirou also saw Anya's dilemma, and she explained Xiao Ce's confusion: "I just saw An Liangyuan outside, so I came with An Liangyuan to pay my respects to His Highness."
In a few words, she revealed Anya's identity to Xiao Ce, relieving Anya's embarrassment, but Anya was not grateful for Wu Xirou's hypocrisy.
He was so mean in front of her before, but he became gentle and petty when he was in front of His Royal Highness. No wonder Qin Shuang would call this woman hypocritical.
But she could not show dissatisfaction in front of His Highness the Crown Prince, so she stepped forward to greet him according to the etiquette.
Xiao Ce spared her the courtesy and she stood aside. She also saw Wu Xirou going to the side of His Highness the Prince to serve the pen and ink. It seemed like this was the most natural thing.
Only she was stuck in her original position, unable to move forward or retreat, and her presence was so abrupt that no one cared whether she was going or staying, as if even one more word she said was superfluous.
Wu Xirou saw Anya standing there from the corner of her eye. She originally wanted to see how Anya would deal with such a situation, but seeing that Anya didn't make any move, she thought to herself that if Qin Zhao encountered such a situation, there would be something wrong.
Ways to ease your own embarrassment.
On the other hand, Anya knew that she was in an awkward position, but she couldn't even leave.
Such people may not necessarily achieve great things.
After careful consideration, Wu Xirou felt that she should be more tolerant towards Anya.
Anya stood stubbornly in her position. She wanted to know how His Highness the Crown Prince would ignore her and to what extent.
About half an hour later, after Xiao Ce finished his work, he felt his neck was sore. When he looked up, he saw Anya standing aside, frowning slightly: "Do you have anything else?"
Anya felt like she had been slapped hard by Xiao Ce, and her face was burning with pain.
When Wu Xirou also looked over, she felt even more embarrassed. She hurriedly lowered her head and said, "I take my leave."
After saying that, she ran out of the study without looking back.
Xiao Ce shook his head and didn't take Anya's coming and going seriously.
Wu Xirou was not surprised to see this scene.
Anya just takes herself too seriously. In Xiao Ce's heart, nothing can compare to the official affairs of the country. How could Anya think that Xiao Ce would take her to heart?
If you really want to find a woman that Xiao Ce pays attention to, the only one is probably Qin Zhao, right?
After that, she quietly served the pen and ink and played her role well.
Of course she also knew that Xiao Ce had only regarded her as a book boy so far, but this was also a way to get close to him, and she liked being alone with him like this.
Only at this time, it seemed that Xiao Ce belonged to her alone, and even Qin Zhao was outclassed by her.
Because she noticed many small details about Xiao Ce, she knew what Xiao Ce wanted with every slight movement of Xiao Ce, so she also did a good job in pouring tea and water.
When Xiao Ce was dealing with political affairs seriously, he was the most fascinating and attracted her attention.
By the time Xiao Ce finished everything, it was already past lunch time.
Xiao Ce felt that Wu Xirou had done a good job in serving the pen and ink, so he asked her to have lunch in the main hall.
After Wu Xirou finished her lunch, she stood up and left consciously.
Watching Wu Xirou go away, even Zhang Jixiang couldn't help but sigh, Wu Xirou knows better than Wu Xiyu. Wu Xiyu only knows how to compete for favor, but has no ability to compete for favor.
Wu Xirou is sincere to His Highness the Crown Prince, and she is also the first beauty who has truly expressed her feelings for the Crown Prince.
Even Qin Liangdi has never been so considerate to His Highness, right?
That night, Xiao Ce went to Wangyue Residence again...
