Chapter Eighty-four: This woman has no one else in her eyes

  Li Xiuzhen's low voice came from the doorway: "A Fu, go and ask the kitchen to prepare some of Mrs. Han's favorite dishes, and have them sent over as soon as they're ready."

  "Yes, I'll go right away."

  Ah Fu had just left when Xia Hua arrived and whispered to Qiu Hua, "The prince has sent over the food that Master wants to eat. Will he not be angry then?"

  Qiu Hua glanced at the still closed door, pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "It's hard to say. You don't think about it either, when the king ordered us to chase after our master, he was so angry! I've never seen the king that angry before! It was just like when Princess Wang...

  Qiu Hua stopped talking at this point and didn't continue. It was a taboo topic that was better left unspoken.

  Two people were talking at the door, Ah Fu had already led the kitchen staff to deliver things, because Shuang Er was injured and couldn't serve Hua Wei, Xia Hua stepped forward to take over the things, then said to the kitchen maid: "Alright, you can go down now!"

  Xia Hua walked into the house with a tray, expecting to see two people smiling at each other. Instead, she only saw Han Caiwei sitting there with her head down, and Li Xiuzhen also sitting there, neither of them speaking. Even Xia Hua knew that at this moment, she should put down the tray and leave, which is exactly what she did.

  "Xia Hua, bring me another cup of tea." Li Xiuzhen said calmly.

  "Yes." Xia Hua went to do it, and when she walked past, she stole a glance at Han Caiwei. To her surprise, she found that Han Caiwei was winking at her, but since they didn't have much tacit understanding between them, she couldn't understand what Han Caiwei meant, so she could only look at her in confusion.

  The tea was ready, Xia Hua didn't dare delay any longer and had to lift the curtain to leave, just as she heard

  Xia Hua let out a cry and hastily went out. Qiu Hua saw that her face didn't look good, so she hurriedly welcomed her and softly asked: "What's wrong?"

  Xia Hua winked: "Good sister, next time I won't go in, you can serve instead! The prince's words are so cold, I reckon Madame Han is doomed this time!"

  Autumn Hua smiled slightly: "It's hard to say, we slaves can't guess the master's thoughts. If you don't want to go again, I'll go next time." 12082574. In fact, Autumn Hua was right, Li Xiuzhen spoke coldly, and Han Caiwei really had no way out this time.

  Xia Hua brought in all the dishes that Han Caiwei loved to eat, she was almost starving for a day, and besides, there was never anything elegant about her eating habits. As soon as Li Xiuzhen said "you can eat now", Han Caiwei rushed to the table and wolfed down her food, while Li Xiuzhen sat at the edge of the bed, watching her unrefined eating manners with a hint of smile in his eyes.

  "Do you know that the old affair between the two of you has become an open secret in the capital?" Li Xiuzhen looked at her for a moment before speaking calmly.

  Han Chaiwei was eating chicken legs, biting a big piece of meat, Li Xiuzhen suddenly said such a sentence, she was shocked, and the big piece of chicken meat was swallowed in, then busy finding a cup to drink water, nervous, choked again, as a result, got a mouthful of water and hands full of oil stains, staring blankly at Li Xiuzhen, how embarrassing it is.

  "How is it that as soon as Shen Fei Bai is mentioned, you become so tense? Could it be that something happened between the two of you that this king doesn't know about?"

  Han Caiwei hastily wiped the water from her mouth, but ended up smearing oil all over it. However, Li Xiuzhi's gaze was too sharp, and she couldn't be bothered with the oil anymore. She quickly said: "Prince Wang, you've misunderstood! I...I just didn't expect things to turn out this way! Besides, aren't those matters already in the past? It's been six years already!" She tried her best to calm herself down and not stutter, but as soon as she saw Li Xiuzhi's eyes, she felt inexplicably nervous, as if she had seen a ghost.

  "Is it over?" Li Xiuzhen smiled slightly, "Originally it was over, but on the day of Shen Feibai's big wedding, you went, and I also went. This doesn't matter, just some rumors from the streets. But do you know, Han Caicloud because you refused to stay at Shen's house, and Shen Feibai has always been deeply in love with you, this thing had spread throughout the capital on that day? Even I was ridiculed by people behind my back! —— You think things of the past are over, but some people don't want it to be over!"

  As soon as she said this, she understood why Li Xiuzhen was angry. Plum blossoms are white in September.

  That day, after she expressed her heart, there was actually no connection between Shen Feibai and herself. Those rumors in the city were not taken to heart by Li Xiuzhen. If he ignored them, they would gradually fade away. However, Han Caicloud was being stubborn and refused to stay at the Shen's house. Many people knew about Shen Feibai and Han Caivern's childhood friendship, and although six years had passed since the incident, it had cooled down. But with Han Caicloud causing trouble again, many busybodies outside were speculating and spreading rumors.

  Li Xiuxian showed extraordinary interest and favor towards her, which naturally attracted gossip. Now that she has returned to the Han residence and encountered Shen Feibai again, making such a big fuss is bound to get her drowned in saliva.

  She may not care about being gossiped, she may not care about being insulted, but Li Xiuzhi is the prince, he is the emperor's son, how can he be insulted and discussed at will? And all of this, was because of Han Caiwei.

  It wasn't until then that Han Caiwei realized for the first time how reckless and foolish her actions had been. She had only thought of herself, never considering the impact these things would have, not just on Li Xiuzhi, but also on Sanwangfu, and even Xiaomei.

  For the first time, she realized that here, in this place where etiquette and social hierarchy were so clearly defined, she was indeed too unconventional, too thoughtless, and too attention-grabbing. She couldn't just do as she pleased; she didn't care about herself, but doing so might hurt some innocent people.

  If because of her, the royal family feels that their dignity is threatened, they can even ruthlessly eliminate her and then find an excuse to get rid of Shen Fei Bai. After all, in this world where imperial power is supreme, human rights are nothing! And the young handsome man will also lose his qualifications for becoming a prince because of this matter, and he will have to bear the infamy for a lifetime, living uncomfortably for a lifetime.

  After understanding all this, Han Caiwei only felt a chill in her heart. She lowered her eyes and said softly: "I'm sorry, it was my fault."

  It's really rare to hear her admit her mistake, this is the first time. This woman only has herself in her eyes, no one else, sometimes she just needs to be scared badly.

  Li Xiuzhen's mouth curved into a smile, and he raised an eyebrow, saying: "Do you know what Shen Feibai went to the Han residence for today?"
