"My Majesty, don't worry. If Concubine Jia is innocent, then she is safe in the cold palace at this moment. She has no ability to protect His Highness Eleven and will only become the target of everyone's frame-up."
Xia Yunxian comforted Concubine Chen. She felt that maybe Emperor Dongling also thought that Concubine Jia had no means, so he just relegated her to the cold palace.
Otherwise, if the powerless Concubine Jia really plots to kill the emperor's heir, I'm afraid Bai Ling will be given one!
After Xia Yunxian left, Qing Huan got up from the ground.
"Your Majesty, Doctor Xia helped your Majesty catch the traitor again this time. You should thank her."
Concubine Chen nodded. Although she was troubled, the rewards and punishments should be given. Otherwise, she would not be able to win people's hearts.
But she was also troubled. Master Bai must have given everything she could give. What kind of thing could show her sincerity?
"By the way, Madam, who knows that Mrs. Wu's good calligraphy is amazing in the world? It's a pity that he has retired and returned to his hometown. Didn't the emperor reward you with a rare white wolf hair not long ago?"
After Qing Huan reminded her, Concubine Chen immediately smiled, "You are still clever and sent gold and silver. Why not give her wolf hair? When she returns to her hometown to visit Taifu Wu in the future, she can also borrow flowers to offer to Buddha."
Taifu Wu was an upright person, and it is said that the villa in the countryside was also very simple. If you can get such a precious wolf hair, you will definitely appreciate the filial piety of Imperial Doctor Xia!
Seeing that Concubine Chen agreed with her words, a flash of light flashed quickly from Qing Huan's eyes, with a different kind of smile.
And the other end.
In King Xian's mansion, Cen Yurong hurriedly walked into his house with a bad expression, not expecting that an elegant figure was already waiting in the corridor in front of him.
Her face froze, and she finally raised a gentle smile to greet him, "The prince is back so early today? Yu Rong specially prepared the prince's favorite food and is planning to cook it herself..."
"My favorite food needs to be prepared from the palace?"
Xiao Junlan's eyes were full of uncertainty, and he had already seen everything clearly, "Now that Yinghua has been punished, you still dare to go into the palace to see her, is it because you think you haven't caused enough trouble?"
Seeing the disappointment and indifference in his eyes, Cen Yurong felt extremely aggrieved.
She lowered her head to hide her unwillingness, for fear of being caught.
"It is precisely because the princess was punished that Yu Rong wanted to go to the palace to accompany her. She never thought that she would not even be allowed to enter the palace gate this time. It seems that His Majesty is really annoyed."
In the past, Emperor Dongling loved Princess Yinghua so much that even if she punished her, it would not be a real punishment, and the palace people would turn a blind eye. But today, Cen Yurong was actually stopped, and the guards even asked her to give her a stern warning.
"Jin'er's illness hasn't healed yet, so you'll stay in the house to take care of her these days."
As soon as Xiao Junlan finished speaking, Cen Yurong's pupils trembled immediately. What kind of identity was Song Jin'er that she actually wanted to take care of her personally?
Why does even a wild girl on the mountain seem to be more important than her to the prince?
She bit her lower lip and hesitated for a long time before replying, "Your Majesty, Yu Rong has found a miracle doctor. She wants his help in recuperating her health these days. Maybe there will be good news soon..."
Although she was prepared in her heart, she still naively had a glimmer of hope.
But after meeting Xiao Junlan's cold gaze, she almost bit her lower lip to bleed.
"Don't do such useless things again. How many times do you want me to say the same thing again?"
Although these words sounded chilling, Xiao Junlan raised his hand and gently helped her push a strand of hair back, "You are just a child, and you are not ready to be a mother. In the end, it will only make you self-defeating." .”
Yeah?
Is this really the case?
So should she be grateful to the prince for his good intentions?
"Yurong understands."
A chill rose up in the soles of Cen Yurong's feet. Her face returned to her usual well-behaved appearance, but her heart was extremely depressed.
It was obvious that he had lied to himself!
It was obviously him who had made her live in pain all these years, but why couldn't she muster up the courage to question him in front of him?
As long as you look into his eyes, you will unconsciously show timidity and inferiority.
Cen Yurong didn't understand when she became like this. It seemed that in front of Xiao Junlan, all the pride and confidence she had had disappeared, and some of them were only cautious.
Looking at her leaving back, Xiao Junlan's eyes darkened. He had been married for many years, how could he not know what kind of temperament she had.
She sneaked into the palace and lied to him. She was really becoming more and more disobedient.
When she returned to Beijing this time, her performance was too disappointing. It was just that she kept making mistakes. The Queen Mother had a deep prejudice against her, and she had disobeyed the Queen Mother several times and saved her.
But Yu Rong actually knew her mistakes and refused to correct them, and now she can be said to have worsened her situation.
Soon, a guard appeared beside him, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Princess already knows."
He told the story about the maid secretly taking Huatu out of the house, and the expression on Xiao Junlan's face was light.
I see.
At this time, a servant was weeding in the yard. Looking at the failed flower branches in his hands, Cen Yurong felt her heart become extremely cold.
"Chen Wu, if you get married and don't want her to give you children, why is that?"
Cen Yurong asked in a daze, and the servant named Chen Wu was stunned for a moment. After thinking about it, he smiled and replied, "If this happened to me, I would definitely be disgusted with this woman and think about the future." It won’t be that much trouble to get divorced.”
Cen Yurong had a lump in her throat, so the prince hated her?
Recalling the prince's care for her over the years, Cen Yurong felt that it was not like this.
But could this be self-deception?
Isn’t the prince very special to Xia Yunxian?
He can be nice to her, and he can also be nice to other women, so even if she is not her, anyone who becomes a good princess can still treat him with respect.
Cen Yurong's eyes were dull, and she could not breathe due to all kinds of random thoughts.
Suddenly a thunder exploded in her mind, and she seemed to understand what it meant to be in the same bed and have different dreams.
She always felt that although the prince was right beside her, he seemed to be far away and unpredictable.
Is it because she has never entered his heart and is an existence that can be replaced at any time, so that is why she is like this?
"He doesn't love me, but... I love him."
Cen Yurong murmured, tears suddenly falling uncontrollably.
She really loved him, even if he was actually a crazier and crueler man than Bai Yujing, she didn't care.
"I know his true face, Xia Yunxian doesn't know, and neither does everyone in the world!"
Cen Yurong suddenly smiled. This smile was uglier than crying.
"Princess?" Chen Wu in front of him was startled, thinking that the princess must be crazy?
"If they knew who he really was, who would stay with him?"
Cen Yurong suddenly realized that she should no longer be naive. Instead of worrying about being replaced at any time, she should let Xiao Junlan know that she was no longer the little girl who could give up her life after just a few words of coaxing!
She is qualified to compete with him!
