"You can't ask me this. You have to ask your princess."
A sudden sentence made Chu Yuci confused: "What?"
King Xiaoyao said: "A few days ago, I happened to pass by the pawn shop and saw your wife's attendant. Out of curiosity, I went into the pawn shop to inquire and found out that she pawned your jade pendant."
"What!"
Chu Yuci stood up suddenly, his expression suddenly ugly.
"impossible!"
how come!
Seven years ago, when Liu Mingyue rescued him, he took off his jade pendant with his own hands. How could it be in Ye Jinxiao's hands?
Could it be that the person who saved him was...
"No!"
He backed up as quickly as a lightning strike, knocked over the teacup on the table, and dropped it to the ground with a clang. The blood on his face was as white as paper:
"It's impossible...it won't happen, no..."
Ye Jinxiao loved him so much that he was madly in love. If he had a life-saving favor for him, how could he hide it and hide it?
How could she pawn his jade pendant?
It can't be her...
impossible……
-
Cold courtyard.
inside the house.
"Miss, the bed is warm. Please close the window, please." Rou'er strode to the window and reached out.
"Don't close it."
Ye Jinxiao sat in front of the stove, the charcoal fire was burning brightly, and his body was warm from the smoke.
Rou'er's little face fell:
"Miss, there is a lot of commotion in Mingyue Pavilion, as if others don't know that Concubine Liu is favored, I feel dirty when I hear it."
The key is that there are still a few boys who ran outside the cold courtyard and deliberately talked loudly.
Isn't it just for the lady to listen to?
So what if Concubine Liu is favored?
The lady is not surprised.
"What are you thinking about, you little kid? The house is burning with charcoal, and you closed the windows. Do you want to collect my body for me the next day?"
In enclosed spaces, carbon monoxide released by carbon fires can be fatal.
However, something like that happened during the day, and Chu Yuci still favored Liu Mingyue. It was really...
Love!
Don’t understand, but respect.
Call him chauvinistic, he can even endure the shame and humiliation of cuckolding.
Let’s just say he has no machismo. He is also arrogant.
Ye Jinxiao dusted off the hem of her skirt, and a thought suddenly flashed into her mind:
"Rou'er."
"Huh? Miss, what's wrong?"
The current emperor has only one granddaughter.
Among the princes, whoever can give birth to a son first will be the eldest grandson of the emperor. Just having this status is worth a lot of money!
Ye Jinxiao placed his fingertips on his knees and tapped it a few times. Suddenly he turned his wrist and took out a dose of medicine.
"You find an opportunity to put this thing in Liu Fangfei's water and let her drink it."
"What's this?"
"This is a special medicine I researched. The fertility rate is almost 100% accurate. As long as they finish having sex and take this medicine, Liu Mingyue will definitely be pregnant."
Rou'er was surprised: "Miss, why are you helping Concubine Liu?"
Ye Jinxiao curled her lips:
"The day she became pregnant was when I left Prince Yu's Mansion."
Rou'er never thought that there could be such a miraculous birth-giving medicine in the world.
"yes."
Taking it with both hands, he took the order and left.
The wind blew through the window, and the cold wind blew in, carrying a few strands of cold rain. It was cool in the winter night.
Ye Jinxiao stood up and wanted to half open and half close the window, but unexpectedly saw a dark jade pendant lying on the window sill.
Does it look familiar?
He picked it up doubtfully and looked through it.
"Rou'er, hasn't this jade pendant been pawned? When did you redeem it?"
At the same time, Rou'er, who had walked to the door and just opened the door, unexpectedly caught a glimpse of the ink shadow standing in the courtyard, and was suddenly startled:
"W-Prince?!"
Ye Jinxiao paused and looked around.
She stood behind the window, the candlelight was bright, and her slender figure was particularly soft.
He stood in the courtyard, his figure blending into the darkness. The expression on his face could hardly be seen clearly against the backlight, but his eyes were fixed on her, and the red corners of his eyes seemed to be on the verge of madness:
"Oh it's you……"
A muted voice is like a broken string, with a trembling tail.
She knows this jade pendant!
Liu Mingyue is lying. Either she lost the jade pendant, or she is just lying!
Seven years ago, the person who saved him turned out to be Ye Jinxiao!
Rou'er subconsciously hid the medicine in her hand: "Miss..."
"You step back first."
Ye Jinxiao lowered his eyes and half-closed the window. After Rou'er left, he leaned against the door frame, raised the jade pendant in his hand, and threw it back.
Snap!
The jade pendant fell to the man's feet, as if it were some disgusting garbage.
"Is something wrong?"
She was as cold as ever, and a little impatient.
Chu Yuci looked at her, his vision gradually blurred, and he felt extremely strange: "Why?"
He staggered forward: "Ye Jinxiao, tell me why!"
Ye Jinxiao frowned: "Why?"
He rushed forward, grabbed her shoulders, and roared:
"Seven years ago, it was obviously you who saved my life. Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you tell me! I was kept in the dark for seven whole years!"
He was deceived by Liu Mingyue for seven years!
Looking back on the scenes of getting along with Liu Mingyue in the past seven years, her gentle smile, gentleness, and simplicity turned out to be masks in disguise.
He just felt extremely nauseated!
"What I thought was my repayment of kindness turned out to be a joke. Liu Mingyue teased me and applauded, while you were watching the show from the sidelines. How could you do this to me!"
He shook her like crazy:
"Don't you love me the most? Don't you want to marry me? Why do you keep me in the dark? What is your heart made of!"
"Ye Jinxiao!"
From beginning to end, he was grateful to Liu Mingyue and married Liu Mingyue, which was a mistake.
He even ridiculously promised to give her a child.
Hahahaha!
People on the battlefield and in the court were willing to tolerate the humiliation of cuckolding in order to repay their kindness, but in the end they told him that the kindness was fake.
He was deceived from beginning to end!
"Why didn't you say it before?"
"Why!"
Ye Jinxiao's shoulders hurt from being shaken by him. She frowned slightly and slapped his hand away.
"Don't you have Concubine Liu?"
Chu Yuci almost went crazy: "Are you mocking me?"
Forget about that woman!
He was actually played by Liu Mingyue for seven whole years!
Ye Jinxiao sneered: "How could you, how dare you? If I say one more word to you, your delicate little lover will wipe his tears in grievance."
"You are so distressed that you want to peel off my skin, stretch my muscles, and vent your anger on her. How can I dare to compare with your little lover?"
Chu Yuci's breathing tightened.
seven years...
She had been chasing him for seven years, but he only had Liu Mingyue in his eyes, and he only had deep prejudice and hostility towards her.
Only then did he realize how many biased and hurtful things he had done to Ye Jinxiao in the past when he trusted Liu Mingyue.
"I don't know it's you...I really don't know..."
If he had known the truth, how could he let it go?
"Why don't you take out the jade pendant?"
"Your Majesty, do you only recognize jade pendants and not people?" The sarcasm on Ye Jinxiao's lips deepened.
"Tsk, it seems that Concubine Liu is really pitiful."
He likes whoever is his savior.
Overall, he is a selfish person. He has never loved Liu Mingyue or Ye Jinxiao. He only loves himself from beginning to end.
"I'm asking you a question!"
Chu Yuci grabbed her wrist tightly, almost crushing it.
"Why didn't you take out the jade pendant earlier? Why didn't you tell me the truth?"
Approaching step by step.
Every word was roared from the throat, filled with deep sorrow and indignation: "You have been kind to me. I can obviously marry you, treat you well all my life, and repay you, and Liu Mingyue will not get involved." This ridiculous seven years!”
"But you concealed the truth and even helped Liu Mingyue get pregnant!"
"Why! Why do you still pawn it secretly behind my back?"
If fourth brother didn't tell him the truth, he would be trapped in Liu Mingyue's ridiculous joke for the rest of his life!
Such a precious jade pendant, just buy it!
Just throw it away!
Could it be that in her eyes, he was just like trash, kicked away at any time?
Ye Jinxiao was forced into the corner, his eyes were cold and his words were cold:
"Because I never planned to live with you."
