It was already evening when we returned to the palace.
Chu Yunfei went to wash up, changed into light and loose clothes, lay on the bedside, and took a long breath: "I can finally have a good rest."
"Thank you for your hard work." Rong Cang walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, put her legs on his own, and started massaging her gently from the ankles, "If the force is too strong, just tell me."
Chu Yunfei raised her eyebrows and looked at his very natural movements, "This is your first time to serve someone."
"Yes." Rong Cang nodded, "Besides you, who else can I serve?"
Chu Yunfei raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Should I feel honored and stand up and kowtow to express my gratitude?"
Rong Cang paused slightly, then continued pressing as if nothing had happened: "No, I just hope you will calm down soon and stop holding grudges against me."
Chu Yunfei leaned against the bedside in silence.
cool down?
How could you still hold a grudge against him after knowing the truth?
She just couldn't get over that hurdle for a while. When she closed her eyes at night, she could always think of the lost child. The most precious things were lost little by little from her life. The heart-wrenching and unforgettable feeling was hard to forget.
However, thinking about it rationally, if she had not experienced those seven years in her previous life, she would probably be helpless when faced with this situation in this life.
So what she needs to consider now is whether she really wants to treat those experiences in her past life as a nightmare, or just a warning of her future destiny?
Rong Cang's eyes fell on her face and he asked softly: "What are you thinking about?"
"Thinking about a lot of things." Chu Yunfei regained consciousness, her eyelids drooping slightly, "Thinking about the lost child in the dream and your final outcome, thinking about the many conspiracies we face, thinking about whether the road to be taken in the future will be difficult, thinking about Should I continue to hold a grudge against you, or should we work together to achieve the goals we want?"
"Of course it's the last one." Rong Cang's voice was calm, "The things in the dream are not real, they are just a warning. Holding a grudge against someone will be very tiring. You can let yourself go appropriately. As for me... I will try my best to make up for your grievances. .”
Chu Yunfei smiled lightly: "I'm not wronged, it's just..."
"I know." Rong Cang came closer and held her in his arms, "I went too far before and made you feel insecure. I promise I won't do it again in the future."
Chu Yunfei sighed softly and remained silent.
"I didn't want to fight before, but once I have such an idea, they will not be my opponent." Rong Cang's tone was calm, but there was a hint of arrogance and determination, "The reason why the imperial concubine wants to use aphrodisiac to control me is just that she feels that I'm not under her control, she just didn't expect that besides me, there's also a delicate woman like you who's not under her control, so her plan is destined to fail."
Chu Yunfei raised his eyebrows slightly: "So I am the hero?"
Rong Cang nodded calmly: "Yes, the great hero of our family."
Our family...
These three words sound really warm but unreal.
"With your intelligence, you will be more than enough to be the Queen Regent in the future." Rong Cang spoke softly and began to draw cakes for her, "As a husband, I need a lot of help from you."
Chu Yunfei snorted coldly: "Sweet words."
Rong Cang looked at her steadily, then suddenly leaned over and kissed her cheek: "In the past six months, I have only been thinking about how to divorce my wife, and I have almost forgotten what a sweet couple feels like."
Chu Yunfei sneered: "If I really forget, where did the child in my belly come from?"
Rong Cang was silent: "Compared to the time when we first got married, we haven't had sex more than five times in the past six months."
"Five times is already a lot." Chu Yunfei said calmly, "Because there are still more than seven months to come, and you have to be Liu Xiahui who is still pregnant."
Rong Cang pursed his lips: "I want to sleep here tonight."
This was not a question, but his decision. However, the tough-sounding tone also contained a hint of asking for advice.
Chu Yunfei was unaware of his little thoughts.
"Fei'er." Rong Cang looked at her and wanted to confirm again, "Is this okay?"
Chu Yunfei's face was indifferent and calm: "Yes."
Rong Cang's face relaxed, and joy spread from his eyes, making his whole person suddenly feel more emotional than usual.
Chu Yunfei actually didn't expect that Rong Cang would become so...so warm.
When they first got married, he was extremely calm and self-controlled, even at night. Unexpectedly, after this incident, the distance between them called etiquette disappeared.
"Fei'er." Rong Cang suddenly spoke and asked an unexpected question, "What will you do if my poison can't be cured?"
Chu Yunfei pondered for a moment and said calmly: "Then I will try to let you sit on the throne of God before you die from the poison. If you make a mistake, the child in my belly will be the heir to the throne. At that time, I can rely on the mother and the son to hold the throne. Listen to politics and be a powerful queen mother."
Rong Cang was silent, with a subtle expression: "A very great ambition."
"Thank you for the compliment." Chu Yunfei accepted the praise calmly, "If someone doesn't do it for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth."
Rong Cang smiled lowly, and his smile-stained eyebrows became more beautiful and radiant: "Then you rest first, I will go to the study to deal with some things."
Chu Yunfei hummed.
Rong Cang kissed her forehead, stood up and left.
Chu Yunfei sat alone on the bedside, thinking about what happened today, feeling as if several days had passed.
With the emperor's decree to punish the Zhao family, not only the Zhao family was turned upside down, but also Prince Chen's Mansion and Prince Yu's Mansion would be unable to sit still. After all, they knew exactly why this incident happened.
At the same time, Prince Zhan's Mansion will also completely jump into the sight of the ministers in the court. If it was said that in the past it was just the noble ladies who caused trouble for Chu Yunfei and were waiting to see her jokes, only the noble concubine and Prince Chen were quietly plotting. Rong Cang.
So next, all the civil and military officials of the dynasty will pay attention to Prince Zhan's Mansion.
After all, any random decision made by the king will cause speculation among the civil and military officials of the dynasty.
Today, just because of a quarrel between the women, the emperor issued an order to punish the Zhao family, which he always valued. Does this mean that the Zhao family will fall out of favor?
Will the emperor's decision to step in for Princess Zhan make people think that Prince Zhan will also be involved in the fight for the heir apparent?
The former dynasty, the harem, the prince, and the courtiers are all watching the wind, who would have no idea?
"Princess, Princess." Grandma Xiong walked in, holding a post in her hand, "This is what the Xie family sent me."
Chu Yunfei took the post and unfolded it. She looked at the beautiful hairpin in regular script and smiled faintly: "She invited me to go to Xie's house tomorrow. It was originally just a verbal agreement. Unexpectedly, she also specially sent an invitation."
Grandma Xiong said: "The Xie family attaches great importance to rules. I guess it was Mrs. Xie's intention."
Chu Yunfei didn't say anything, put the post aside, and only told Grandma Xiong to prepare a meeting gift for the Xie family tomorrow: "Just prepare two copies. One for Mrs. Xie, and one for Miss Xie."
"Yes." Grandma Xiong took the order and retreated.
Bao Chan brought a cup of tea and handed it to Chu Yunfei: "Princess went to Prince Yu's Mansion today. After coming back, she went to the palace again. She didn't rest all day. She must be very tired now. Let's have a sip of tea and rest." In a moment, this servant will prepare dinner."
Chu Yunfei took a sip of tea and said, "Prepare a rich dinner."
"Yes." Baochan responded with a smile, "The prince and the princess have reconciled, and the slaves are happy to see it."
Chu Yunfei held on to the tea cup, but smiled and said nothing.
