Xiao Ji was stunned for a few seconds when he heard this. This was not the first time he was turned away.
Ever since he was young, his mother-in-law had rarely taken care of him, and his mother-in-law had always looked after him.
He often ran over to see his mother-in-law, but she also stayed behind closed doors.
Xiao Ji shook his head and looked at Xiang Yin, with a firm tone: "Tell my mother and concubine that I must see her today."
This was the first time Xiang Yin saw King Yu's expression, which made people feel chills running down their spines.
"King Yu, please wait a moment. I will go in and ask Concubine Concubine."
Xiao Ji didn't speak, but looked at Xiang Yin coldly until she walked in again.
In the bedroom, Concubine Concubine was leaning on the imperial concubine's couch, looking at the bright moon outside the window. The night wind was blowing with a coolness, and the cold moonlight shone on her face, with a hint of sadness.
This was what Xiang Yin saw when she came closer. She walked over slowly, hesitated for a while and said, "My dear concubine, King Yu insists on seeing you."
Concubine Yu paused after hearing this, turned her head and looked over slowly, her eyes as cold as the moonlight, "What's the matter?"
Xiang Yin shook her head, "I don't know."
Concubine Yu said calmly: "Let him come in."
"No." Xiang Yin walked out with small steps.
Xiao Ji stood upright at the foot of the steps, looking at Yuxiu Palace shrouded in the cold moonlight. When he was a child, he would only think that Yuxiu Palace was so big and the door was very high, shutting up his mother and concubine, which made him want to see her.
Now, Yuxiu Palace is still very big, and the closed door has not changed. He has also grown up, and he still cannot walk through that door.
Xiang Yin walked out of it and looked at King Yu, "King Yu, please come in."
A flash of sarcasm flashed in Xiao Ji's eyes, which was really polite.
Xiang Yin noticed something was wrong in Xiao Ji's eyes and was stunned for a moment.
Xiao Ji ignored her and strode in.
There was incense burning in the bedroom. Xiao Ji could smell it when he first came in, but it was quickly blown away by the oncoming wind.
He looked at the woman on the imperial concubine's bed. She was enveloped by the moonlight outside the window, ignoring everything coldly, as if no one or thing could enter her eyes.
Xiao Ji took a step forward to salute, "Mother and concubine."
Concubine Yu raised her eyes to look at Xiao Ji, and her voice was as cold as her eyes, "What do you want from me?"
Xiao Ji sneered in her heart, her eyes emotionless, as if she were looking at a stranger.
"If nothing happens, can't I come to see my mother and concubine?"
Concubine Yu was startled, and realized that Xiao Ji today was a little different from usual. Her voice was still light, "Does that mean everything is fine? Then go back, I have to rest again."
Xiao Ji seemed to have guessed that she would say such a thing, and was neither surprised nor angry.
He had heard this many times.
"Am I your biological son?"
Concubine Yu was stunned when she heard this, "What?"
Xiao Ji said again: "Concubine, you shouldn't have a son like this."
After living in the palace for so many years, he has met many people. No matter how vicious a woman is, she will not be so cold and callous when facing her children.
His life and death seemed to have nothing to do with her.
The queen is very scheming, but she also cares about her son.
Concubine Qi would cry heartbroken when she lost her beloved son.
His fever persisted, and Concubine Concubine never came to see him.
He once asked his mother-in-law if the mother-in-law didn't like him.
Grandma said that there are no parents in the world who don’t like their children.
At that time, he was wondering if he was disobedient and not good enough.
He was obedient and studied hard, but his mother and concubine still didn't like him.
I used to be able to deceive myself and others.
Now?
"Mother and concubine, please rest early. I won't disturb you."
After Xiao Ji finished speaking, she turned around and walked out. Before she could reach the door, Concubine Yu's slightly angry voice came from behind her, "Do you think I want to give birth to you?"
Xiao Ji's footsteps paused, and his whole body froze on the spot. At that moment, it seemed as if something collapsed.
He pursed his lips tightly, thinking about it for so many years, and still couldn't understand why his mother-in-law didn't like him.
Obviously they are mother and son, the closest people, why don't you like him?
I get it now.
The mother-in-law hated him so much that she didn't want to give birth to him.
Xiao Ji took a deep breath to calm the discomfort in her heart, "I don't want you to be my mother-in-law, but I have no choice."
Concubine Yu was startled.
After Xiao Ji finished speaking, he walked out without looking back.
At this time, at the entrance of the palace
Fu Yuanxiao looked inside the red lacquer door from time to time. After waiting for a long time, Xiao Ji was nowhere to be seen, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
"Why hasn't Xiao Ji come out yet?"
Fu Yinshuang took a few glances but didn't see Xiao Ji. After waiting for so long and Xiao Ji didn't come out, it was normal for Xiao Xiao to be worried.
She comforted him: "Xiaoxiao, don't worry, King Yu must have been delayed by something."
Xiao Che looked at the two women holding hands. He originally planned to go back first and then send Fu Yuanxiao back to Prince Yu's Mansion.
But Fu Yuanxiao insisted on waiting for Xiao Ji at the palace gate, and they waited together.
Seeing that she was anxious, Xiao Che comforted her: "Fourth sister-in-law, fourth brother will be fine. He will come out after a while."
Fu Yuanxiao glanced at Xiao Che, looking at the eyebrows that were similar to Xiao Ji's. With Xiao Che's comfort, she felt a little more at ease.
At this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves, and at the same time there was the sound of wheels.
When Fu Yuanxiao heard the sound, she saw a carriage driving towards her. She recognized it at a glance as the carriage from Prince Yu's Mansion.
"It's Xiao Ji who came out.",
Fu Yinshuang admired Xiaoxiao's eyesight for being able to recognize the carriage from Prince Yu's palace even from such a distance.
When the man saw Prince Chen and Princess Yu, he immediately stopped and loudly reported, "Your Majesty, Prince Chen and Princess Yu are at the gate of the palace."
Xiao Ji heard this and opened the curtain, using the palace lantern, he saw Fu Yuanxiao's figure. His eyes paused, and his eyes finally fell on Fu Yuanxiao.
He didn't expect that she would be waiting for him here.
After being stunned for a moment, he immediately got out of the carriage.
Fu Yuanxiao was truly relieved when he saw Xiao Ji.
When Xiao Ji came over, she raised her head and asked, "Why did you come out?"
Xiao Ji walked to her and stopped. Looking into her worried eyes, he said warmly: "I was delayed for a while."
He raised his head and looked at Xiao Che, "Thank you very much."
Xiao Che smiled: "Fourth brother is too polite."
Xiao Ji lowered his eyes and looked at Fu Yuanxiao, "Let's go back."
Fu Yuanxiao nodded, "Yeah."
Fu Yinshuang watched Xiao Ji holding Fu Yuanxiao, and then helping Xiaoxiao get on the carriage. She clicked her tongue twice. Xiao Ji said that it was time to become a warm man too?
It used to be a pretense.
So now, it should be somewhat real inside.
Xiao Che frowned when she saw Fu Yinshuang staring at Xiao Ji, "What are you looking at?"
Fu Yinshuang turned around after hearing the sound and saw Xiao Che standing behind her, her face a little smelly, as if she was angry.
She hurriedly explained: "I didn't see anything, I'm just a little worried about Xiaoxiao."
Xiao Che said: "Fourth brother won't do anything to fourth sister-in-law, what are you worried about?"
Fu Yinshuang smiled, glanced at the carriage behind him, and changed the subject, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, shall we go back?"
Xiao Che stared at Fu Yin for a while, then turned around and got on the carriage.
Fu Yinshuang curled her lips and saw Xiao Che get on the carriage directly. She wanted to remind him to take it easy. If his health was not good, he would not be afraid of losing his life.
As soon as the words came to her lips, she swallowed them again and snorted. It was none of her business.
Anyway, widowhood will happen sooner or later. What's the difference between sooner and later?
After Xiao Che got on the carriage, Fu Yinshuang got on the carriage.
After sitting down, she secretly glanced at Xia Che and found that he was looking at her, so she quickly looked away.
Why are you staring at her so hard?
It almost scared her.
Xiao Che looked at her actions and chuckled; "What?"
Yinshuang had no choice but to move her gaze over again. When she saw Xiao Che's slightly curved eyebrows, she snorted in her heart, why are you laughing?
"I'm fine. Is your prince okay tonight?"
Xiao Che is not in good health, and after waiting in the wind for so long tonight, it would be bad if he catches the cold.
Xiao Che still chuckled, "I'm fine with you."
Fu Yinshuang said with a relieved expression: "That's good, I am very worried about the prince."
Xiao Che just smiled and didn't answer.
After Fu So laughed twice, he looked away. What's so funny?
Do you think your smile looks good?
Fu Yinshuang glanced at Xiao Che. Although her features were a bit inferior to Xiao Ji's, they were still very delicate.
Well!
There is no denying that it is quite beautiful.
What's the use of looking good?
There is nothing left after death.
When Fu Yinshuang returned to Prince Chen's Mansion and was bowing and about to leave, he heard Xiao Che say, "It's late at night, I'll go stay at your place."
Fu Yinshuang didn't have time to run away. When she heard this sentence, she almost lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Is there something wrong with Xiao Che's mind?
Why do you want to stay overnight with her again?
Fu Yinshuang laughed twice: "My lord, you also said that it is late at night, and the yard where I live is a bit far away. What if the prince is tired?"
Xiao Che chuckled, stepped forward to hold her hand, and walked towards Qinyuan without any explanation.
Fu Yinshuang had no choice but to follow. She looked at Xiao Che, who was thin and had strong hands. Her bed was so fragrant? Do you have to stay overnight?
After bathing, the night was really deep.
Fu Yinshuang looked at Xiao Che who was sitting on the bed like an uncle, and suddenly thought of that night, but she helped to avoid consummating the marriage.
Can't think about it...
Fu Yinshuang's face had already turned red.
Xiao Che saw her blushing and raised the corners of her lips, "What are you doing, my beloved, standing there stupidly?"
Fu Yinshuang was most annoyed when hearing Xiao Che call her his beloved concubine. Goosebumps fell all over the floor.
She rubbed her arms, took off her shoes and went to bed under Xiao Che's gaze.
After going to bed, she sat on the bed and looked up to find Xiao Che still looking at her.
"..."
"My lord, won't you sleep?"
Xiao Che kindly pointed out: "Have you forgotten that there are still important things to do?"
Fu Yinshuang thought carefully for a while, took a bath, washed, put on perfume... By the way, she didn't go to the toilet before going to bed.
Otherwise, don’t even think about staying in bed in the morning.
No, I did it before taking a shower.
After Fu So thought about it carefully, he shook his head and said, "There is nothing important to do."
Xiao Che chuckled, "My dear concubine, we haven't consummated our marriage yet."
Fu Yinshuang was stunned when he heard this, why had he forgotten this?
I really don’t blame her for not remembering it, it’s not important to her.
Fu Yinshuang asked cautiously: "The marriage will be consummated tonight? Is the prince physically able..."
Good night, babies!
