King Chen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be because of this incident.
However, his face immediately darkened, and he was a little unhappy: "Didn't the ninth brother make a fuss about divorcing his younger brother and sister before? Why did he start to maintain it today?"
"It's my own business to divorce her or to protect her. What does it have to do with you?" Rong Cang's eyes were as cold as a cold pool, "She hasn't left Prince Zhan's Mansion for a day, and she is my wife for a day. You bully her like this. , do you think this king is dead?"
This sentence is really not polite to say.
King Chen looked a little worried and said coldly: "Ninth brother, there is no need to be so angry. I am a man after all, and I can't do anything to bully a woman. What's more, she is still my sister-in-law."
Rong Cang remained silent, obviously not believing it.
"In Ninth Brother's mind, is my brother really that bad?" King Chen said in a disappointed tone, "I wasn't even present when the incident happened, so some misunderstandings arose."
Rong Cang sneered: "Do you think I believe it?"
King Chen explained helplessly: "When we received the news and rushed over, we only saw my brother and sister ordering the maid to slap the Zhao girl. For the sake of the overall situation, and because I didn't want to chill the heart of the Duke's palace, I wanted my brother and sister to step back. No. To think that my siblings were so outspoken that they made things so serious in the end."
"So you blame her?" A sarcastic look appeared on Rong Cang's face, "You are afraid of chilling the heart of the Duke's family, but aren't you afraid of chilling the heart of this king?"
King Chen's expression changed, and he instantly heard what he meant.
The two brothers working together will be the greatest help to him in his fight for the throne. If Rong Cang has no intention of fighting for the throne, the person he is most likely to support is of course his own brother, King Chen.
But if you offend him and make him alienate, then it's not certain who he will help.
King Chen's heart was boiling with anger, and he hated being threatened by him in this way, but then he thought about it, so what if he was separated from him?
Being in an imperial family, one is born with interests at the forefront. Is it possible that we really expect our brothers to be united?
He doesn't need Rong Cang to agree with him. Anyway, no matter what he thinks, he just needs to make sure that he can't get rid of his control in this life.
Rong Cang will understand and accept this fact sooner or later.
But there is no need to break up with him just yet.
King Chen was silent for a moment, and then said in a slow tone: "It is indeed my fault in this matter. I advised my brothers and sisters to be generous before I understood the situation. As an elder brother, I have neglected my duty and I must apologize to you again."
After saying that, he put down the tea cup, stood up and bowed to Rong Cang: "Is this okay?"
"If you have nothing else to do, you can leave." Rong Cang coldly issued an expulsion order, "To avoid making others suspicious, don't come to the Prince's Palace in the future."
King Chen's expression changed slightly: "We are brothers. I am here to visit you, why should I care about other people's opinions?"
"You don't care, I do." Rong Cang said coldly, "I have an army of 400,000 in my hands, and I don't want to get involved with anyone in the court."
King Chen hesitated: "Ninth brother, you..."
"We are here to see you off." Rong Cang dropped these words and stood up to leave.
King Chen was so angry that his face was livid, and he stared at his back gloomily for a long time before walking away.
It was really a waste of time and I made me very angry.
He and Chu Yunfei were indeed a perfect match, both good at offending people.
When King Chen walked to the gate, he looked back at the huge Zhan Prince's Mansion, with a hint of gloomy calculation in his eyes.
If he can't see Chu Yunjiao, let Chu Yunjiao take the initiative to see him.
After stepping out of the threshold, he turned to the boy next to him and said, "Go to Chu's house for a visit."
…
Returning to Shuanghua Courtyard, I looked up and saw Chu Yunfei sitting in front of the window with her chin on her face, looking very worried.
"What's wrong?" Rong Cang walked over and gently squeezed her shoulders, "Are you in a bad mood?"
"No." Chu Yunfei turned to look at him, "Is King Chen gone?"
"Um."
Chu Yunfei smiled faintly: "I was just wondering if King Chen couldn't sit still? While I was not at home, he came to the door in person to find an excuse to see Chu Yunjiao. It seems that Chu Yunjiao is a chess piece that is very important to him. important."
Chu Yunjiao is indeed just a chess piece.
But the chess piece originally gave her affection and trust. She now knows that King Chen is using her and destroying her body, causing her to be unable to get pregnant in her life. I wonder if Chu Yunjiao is still willing to be used by him.
When Chu Yunfei thought of this, she couldn't help but feel chilly in her heart. She secretly lamented that these people would do anything to achieve their goals, and the city government, which had run out of agencies, had no idea how many crimes they had committed.
"Don't think so much." Rong Cang rubbed her head, "Get ready after lunch. We will enter the palace half an hour early so that you can get to know the princesses and their consorts."
Chu Yunfei hummed, and suddenly raised his eyes to stare at Rong Cang's face. For a moment, he tried to find something similar to the queen on his face.
Although even if there is some similarity, it won't be too obvious, otherwise why would we need to wait so many years? I'm afraid someone has already suspected it.
But there is no doubt that Rong Cang looks nothing like Concubine Gu.
"What's wrong?" Rong Cang noticed that Chu Yunfei's eyes were a little strange and confused, "What's wrong with my face?"
"It's nothing." Chu Yunfei calmly looked away and looked at him from top to bottom, her eyes passing from his buttocks. "I just think that the prince is really good-looking, better-looking than several other princes in the royal family."
"Really?" Rong Cang pursed his lips slightly, with a smile on his face, "Although it looks good and cannot be eaten, it can make Fei'er feel happy."
Chu Yunfei nodded: "Yes, facing a face every day will inevitably become boring after a long time. It would be okay if this face looks better, but if it looks ugly, wouldn't it mean that there is no hope in life?"
Rong Cang: "..."
"The prince fell in love with me at first sight, wasn't it because of my face?" Chu Yunfei raised his eyebrows, "Love at first sight is just a matter of sex."
Rong Cang thought about it and felt that what she said made sense.
"When I think about the family dinner in the evening, I can't help but feel a little melancholy in my heart." Chu Yunfei frowned slightly, "My father, the Queen, has many concubines and many children. The noble concubine has two sons, and the concubine De has one son. , Concubine Xiao has two daughters, and even Concubine Li and Jiang Cairen in the harem have their own children, but the queen is alone, and I don’t know how she feels in her heart."
Even if you sit firmly in the back seat, you still can't eliminate the loneliness of having no heirs. You can only see the loving mothers and filial piety of other people, and they are the children of others.
Especially during the family banquets held by the royal family every Mid-Autumn Festival, New Year's Day and weekdays, the princes and princesses gather together. The lively and joyful atmosphere can bring out the desolation and desolation in the queen's heart.
Just thinking about it makes me feel sad and lonely.
Rong Cang stared at her silently: "What do you think?"
"...No." Chu Yunfei shook his head, "I just feel sorry for that child back then."
Rong Cang hummed and remained silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
