Since they were eating in the palace, the main course for lunch was naturally the crab from last night. This fellow was as big as a large dining table. It was impossible for the Emperor to finish it all by himself. Other than the relatives in the harem, it was inevitable that some of the officials would be rewarded.
With Wu Qi's current status and his weight in Kang Xi's heart, he could naturally get a large portion. However, Wu Qi, who knew that he would still have more than enough to spare, shamelessly asked for two more large portions.
Of course, Wu Qi wasn't eating alone. His wives followed him, so he had to take care of them. Princess Jianning had one herself, so he didn't have to. Shuang 'er and Ah Ke were necessary. As for the two young princesses?
"Hehe." Wu Qi couldn't help but be amused when he thought of this. This thing was the first thing he used to subdue them.
After getting three large portions of crabs, Wu Qi did not eat them in the palace. He directly brought the two young princesses out of the palace and brought Ah Ke and Shuang 'er to the inn. On the same day, they moved into the newly decorated mansion.
The five of them sat at the dining table. Looking at the three main dishes in front of them, the four women could not help but smack their lips.
"Husband, could this be the legendary immortal crab bestowed by the gods to the emperor?”Shuang 'er asked curiously.
From the looks of it, she really wanted to try it as soon as possible. However, as her husband, Wu Qi did not move first, so it was not appropriate for her to eat first.
"Yes, I am." Wu Qi understood their feelings very well. He first picked up some crab roe and put it in his mouth, closing his eyes to savor it carefully.
"Husband, how does it taste?" Ah Ke asked hurriedly.
As the four women watched, Wu Qi slowly swallowed and praised,"Delicious, the best in the world! It was smooth but not greasy, fresh but not fishy.”
"I want to try it too." Ah Ke and Shuang 'er also put down their chopsticks at the same time and started to taste it. Soon, their expressions were only intoxicated.
"It's indeed the best in the world. As expected of an Immortal Crab!”Shuang 'er and Ah Ke praised him from the bottom of their hearts. They were also in a good mood because Wu Qi would always think of them when there was something good.
Mu Jianping and Mu Jianxin, who were standing at the side, saw them eating here and were so intoxicated. They knew that it must be delicious.
However, they couldn't move. Not to mention that their acupuncture points were pressed, even if they didn't, they would be embarrassed.
Because Ah Ke and Shuang 'er were Wu Qi's wives, they naturally had a share of such good things. However, they were nothing, and they did not want to become anyone to Wu Qi.
Seeing this, they could only swallow their saliva.
Wu Qi's gaze had always been on them, and he naturally saw them swallowing their saliva secretly. He could not help but slap his forehead." Aiya, I forgot that your acupuncture points were also touched.”
As he spoke, Wu Qi quickly went forward to unseal their acupuncture points and said,"Alright, come and eat the immortal crab with us.”
"No way! We are captives! You should eat what captives should eat!" Mu Jianping stubbornly picked up his chopsticks and ate the rice while eating other dishes.
"So you don't like it." Wu Qi said with a faint smile, but before Mu Jianping could answer, he quickly looked at Mu Jianxin." What about you?”
" I..." Mu Jianxin stuttered. She glanced at her sister, only to see Mu Jianping clenching his teeth and shaking his head.
"I…I don't like it either." Mu Jianxin stammered and then began to eat the rice and other dishes.
"Alright then." Wu Qi smiled and ate faster.
Ah Ke and Shuang 'er also quickly noticed some clues, but Ah Ke did not do anything, and Shuang' er very considerately handed her plate to Mu Jianxin.
"Good sister, let's eat together.”Shuang 'er said to Mu Jianxin.
" This..." Mu Jianxin looked at Mu Jianping hesitantly, but Mu Jianping still shook his head.
"This isn't good. I'm a captive.”Mu Jianxin said.
"No matter what you are, I only know that we are both girls. As long as we get along, we can become friends and sisters.”Shuang 'er said very gently.
At this moment, the four of them could not help but look at Shuang 'er.
Wu Qi was happy. Shuang 'er's understanding was something that no other woman could compare to. He really felt that having Shuang' er was his greatest blessing.
Ah Ke was angry. She could tell that Wu Qi wanted to take these sisters in and wanted to slowly integrate them. She was unwilling, but Shuang 'er had taken the lead, which made her seem petty.
Mu Jianping was surprised. She couldn't imagine that a woman couldn't stop her man from marrying more, because this was related to the man's ability.
However, Shuang 'er actually helped her husband when he needed it. How charming was this Wu Qi? At this moment, he was endlessly curious about Wu Qi.
On the other hand, Mu Jianxin was at a loss. Wu Qi wanted her to eat, so she listened to her sister and endured it.
Shuang 'er was sent over. She listened to her sister and endured it.
But now that Shuang 'er had said such convincing words and placed the plate in front of her, she couldn't take it anymore.
Her sister kept looking at her, her eyes saying," Don't eat it, don't eat it.”
However, her sense of taste kept calling out to her," Eat, eat, it's delicious.”
Finally, Mu Jian Xin still stretched out her chopsticks, took a bite, and began to savor it carefully.
Only then did he realize that the taste was indeed intoxicating.
Mu Jianping gritted his teeth in anger.
On the other hand, she was angry because her sister was disappointing. Her wife believed her and gave in after a few words.
On the other hand, she was also angry at Ah Ke. Her sister had compromised, so what was the point of her insisting on it alone? But? Ah Ke didn't bring the things over to share.
Wu Qi's gaze was fixed on Shuang 'er, and his eyes were filled with gratification.
Ah Ke saw all of this. She was extremely unwilling for Wu Qi to have a new woman, but she also did not want Wu Qi to hate her because of her actions.
Seeing that she couldn't stop this matter today, she could only take her plate over and force a smile."Sister, let's eat together.”
Mu Jianping's heart had already turned to hope, but he couldn't change it too quickly. He had been more persistent than his sister, but now he at least wanted Ah Ke to say some sincere words of advice. He immediately replied,"I don't want to."
Ah Ke naturally knew that Mu Jianping was putting up a strong front for the sake of his face, so she couldn't help but curse in her heart. But she had no choice. With Shuang 'er leading the way, what else could she do?
However, she was too lazy to think of new words. She directly used Shuang 'er's words and said,"No matter what you are, I only know that we are both girls. As long as we get along, we can become friends and sisters.”
“……!”Mu Jianping cursed in his heart, Isn't this too insincere? It was fine if the meaning was similar, but he didn't even say a single word. Moreover, I only said no, I didn't tell you that I'm a captive, okay?'
However, it was also because of this that she couldn't reject him. She knew that Ah Ke's sincerity was not high. If this sentence didn't work, she was afraid that she wouldn't persuade him anymore and would pretend to be helpless and take it away.
Thinking of this, Mu Jianping could only imitate his sister and hesitantly take a bite.
"Hehe, the progress is not bad." Wu Qi was secretly happy. The gains from this meal were much greater than what he had gained last night.
