"Yes, I will definitely go there in a few days. Let's let Sister Ruling calm down in the past few days."
Xie Churou nodded in response. He had to rest for a few days before he was beaten. The beating was not just physical. He had such a proud temperament, but he suffered such humiliation.
"Okay, you can step back as well. I'm tired of my family."
The Queen Mother waved her hand. It was already late at night, and she felt very tired. However, thinking that King Rui would bring his aunt to the palace to pay his respects tomorrow, she finally felt a little more comfortable.
When she was the late emperor's concubine, she was not favored. At that time, she gave birth to His Majesty. The late emperor's concubine Rong had no children, so the late emperor gave her son to the concubine Rong who raised her for seven years.
Later, even when they brought him back, they didn't get close to him romantically. Concubine Rong was neither cold nor indifferent to him. After all, she wasn't her biological child and she didn't raise him well, but when he came back, even her mother didn't raise him well.
I have missed the important time for my children to grow up. If I want to get close to them again, I am afraid it will be really difficult!
Fortunately, God gave her another son, Chu Jing, and she would keep this son by her side no matter what.
After all, this son was raised with great care. Otherwise, I really don’t think I would have any other thoughts in living this life. The son I gave birth to is not close to me at all.
But when I think about what happened in the cold palace, my whole body becomes extremely heavy. I really don’t know how to persuade her. Is Ruling really willing to stay in the cold palace for the rest of her life?
I really didn't sleep well at all that night. I tossed and turned and couldn't do anything. I thought that if Ru Ling was unwilling to come out this time, she would have someone bring Ru Ling out. Concubine Zheng, too, has been really prosperous in these years. Got it!
The next day, when she saw King Rui and his young prince coming to pay their respects, the Queen Mother smiled happily and swept away all the worries in her heart. Looking at the fair and fat young prince, she really couldn't help but feel affection for him.
"Xun'er, come to Aijia quickly and let Aijia take a good look at you. You have only attacked once in a long time. You will definitely attack more often in the future. Let me take a good look at you."
Looking at the white and fat little grandson in front of her, the Queen Mother smiled happily. She hugged her little grandson to her side and looked left and right. She couldn't get enough of it.
After all, the younger son should be more considerate and filial, so he also likes the younger son's children more. The children in this palace really seem to be average. Your Majesty especially likes Concubine Zheng's children, but she also looks at them. Just like that!
Especially Chu Yi, who looks cute and cute on the surface, but she always feels like her mother, Concubine Zheng, who can't hide her acrimony. She was taught bad things by her biological mother at a young age!
"Grandma, Xun'er woke up before dawn this morning. She knew she had to come to the palace to pay her respects to grandma, so she wanted to wake up early, enter the palace early, and see grandma early!"
This childish baby sound is really cute to people's ears. Chu Xun is almost eight years old this year. Every time he goes to the palace to greet the Queen Mother, he will still huddle in the Queen Mother's arms like he did when he was a child. Jiao is completely a child who lives in pampering.
But what makes the Queen Mother most distressed is that Chu Xun's biological mother passed away six years ago, and there is no mistress in Prince Rui's palace.
Chu Xun's biological mother was just an ordinary folk woman back then. Although she didn't approve of it at that time, she still liked it, so she could keep it!
King Rui Chu Jing is not yet 30 years old this year, but he has a calm temperament. He is still acting coquettishly in the Queen Mother's arms towards his favorite son as he did when he was a child, with a look of love in his eyes.
Even if this child is not his biological child, he will still love him as his own child, but after all, there are still some imperfections.
"The Ai family feels that both of you are so stubborn. Ru Ling has been in the cold palace for so many years just because she was studying. And you are thinking about Xun'er's biological mother. There is no mistress in Prince Rui's palace. Looking at you two, are you really going to piss off the Ai family to death?"
Looking at the fair, tender and adorable little grandson, she was naturally happy. Thinking of the two disobedient ones, the Queen Mother still sighed again.
Chu Jing's loving eyes never left Chu Xun. This was a child he had raised to such a big age. It didn't matter whether he was his biological child or not. What's more, this child was born to the woman he loved most with his own eyes. of!
After hearing the Queen Mother's words, her eyes flickered slightly, and she stretched out her hand to turn the jade ring on her index finger.
"Xue'er is my favorite woman. I know that she has a humble status, but I don't mind it. Even if I leave her in the house without any status, it doesn't matter, because there will be no one else except her. woman."
"The Ai family knows how much you feel, and the Ai family can't bear to break up their lover, but they have been gone for so long, and your Prince Rui's palace always needs a woman to take care of the backyard!"
The Queen Mother helplessly asked why these juniors were always so disobedient one by one, but the one who was the most disobedient and alienated from her was the emperor.
"When Xue'er left, I had already made up my mind to raise Xun'er well. I didn't have much else in mind."
Chu Jing said calmly, and suddenly thought of something, "When I entered the palace just now, I heard that something happened in the cold palace. It would be better for the queen to directly order Ru Ling to come out. It is not good to suffer in the cold palace all the time. Who are you angry with? You shouldn't be angry with your own body. Living in a cold palace without food or clothing should be very painful."
"It's because she doesn't want to come out!"
The Queen Mother said in annoyance, and brought a piece of pastry to Chu Xun's hand. Chu Xun took the pastry and ate it slowly, his bright eyes purring as if he was listening to these conversations.
"But you are right. If I stay in the cold palace any longer, my whole body will be damaged. Not only Ruling will come out, but also Xin'er." The Queen Mother paused, thinking that Chu Jing didn't know Xin'er. Who is the son?
"Xin'er is the daughter Mu Wan gave birth to in the cold palace. It's time to take her out. Ru Ling seems to like her very much. Then she will be raised by Ru Ling after she comes out."
Your Majesty could be ruthless and merciless in killing the Mu family, but the Queen Mother couldn't bear it. Fortunately, she only gave birth to a princess.
The princess can leave a life, after all, she is of royal blood, and she must not stay in the cold palace for the rest of her life!
Chu Jing listened quietly, but the fingers turning the jade ring turned a little white.
Xin'er, is that the thin and small baby girl who was born?
He really wanted to take the baby girl away at first, but he had no choice but to keep her. The princess had a half chance of surviving, but if it was his son, he would probably be dead on the spot!
Chu Jing looked thoughtfully at Chu Xun who was eating pastries, but Chu Xun didn't understand why his father suddenly looked at him, and smiled broadly at his father while eating pastries.
"Why does dad have to walk this way every time? It seems like an unlucky place over there?"
After coming out of the Queen Mother's Palace, Chu Xun obediently stretched out his hand and let Chu Jing lead him around the palace. It was like this every time, but every time he came, he seemed to have to go around the cold palace.
Although he didn't know what the Cold Palace looked like, he could clearly feel that everyone in the palace was afraid of going to the Cold Palace. This was a very unlucky place!
"There is nothing auspicious or unlucky. You will understand one day."
Chu Jing said calmly, he has always had such a calm and taciturn temperament, he would always stand quietly aside, and when standing with His Majesty, he would take the initiative to restrain his aura, only willing to become His Majesty's foil.
"ah!"
Chu Xun suddenly shouted. It turned out that he had just stepped on a slippery place. Fortunately, Chu Jing was holding him so he didn't fall.
Chu Jing simply picked up Chu Xun with one hand to avoid stepping on something and falling down. Chu Xun sat obediently in Chu Jing's arms, holding his neck and looking around.
The entire palace is really big. Prince Birui's Mansion is really huge!
Suddenly, I saw a dark shadow on the largest and tallest tree. I wanted to look again, but the shadow suddenly disappeared, so I stopped paying too much attention to the scenery elsewhere.
Xiao Xiao sat on the tree warily, watching the two figures, one large and one small, walking away before jumping down. After more than a year of observation, it seemed that it was exactly what he thought.
Every time King Rui brings the crown prince into the palace, he always likes to walk around the cold palace. It seems that he must be missing something. Considering that he secretly heard the news a year ago, it seems that 90% of it is true. Got it!
I didn’t expect that the Chu King’s palace would have such a big secret. It’s really fun!
In the cold palace, Chu Xin was feeding Xie Ruling a bowl of hot porridge. Although several days had passed and her physical injuries were slightly better, she could not move around. She was still just Can lie down on the bed.
"Tell me exactly what happened that day. Don't hide anything. I want to hear you explain clearly. I know you can't steal!"
Xie Ruling swallowed a mouthful of hot porridge. The injuries on her body were no longer so painful. In the first few days, the pain was so severe that people would faint. It was okay to faint, but I was afraid that I would feel it when I woke up. This pain is really worse than death!
At that time, I was in so much pain that I couldn't care about these things. Now that my energy has improved, I naturally want to ask clearly. After death, you have to know how you died.
"That day I went to get charcoal, but no one gave it to me. I could only squat down and pick up the residue on the ground. It was Chu Yi who came over to say nice things to me. I didn't believe it at that time, but seeing what she gave her was so important. I just want to bring the charcoal fire over, because I don’t want us to get cold anymore.”
Chu Xin said aggrievedly that if she would have known the outcome of the matter, she would never have had any contact with Chu Yi at that time.
She would be wary of the adults in the palace, but she relaxed half of her vigilance towards the children. But she didn't expect that the seemingly smart little princess could be so vicious!
"Do you think that bitch's daughter can be anything good?"
Xie Ruling was so angry that she touched the wound again, and her whole body throbbed with pain, "Forget it, it's all my fault for not telling you these things. You don't know anything about what happened in the former palace, so you can't blame me. You, this lesson should be a lesson to you, don’t trust people so casually in the future.”
Xie Ruling shook her head helplessly. When she voluntarily entered the cold palace, she was unwilling to go out again from the bottom of her heart. She also wanted to cut off all ties with those people in the past.
So she and Chu Xin have never talked about the past things. Now that Chu Xin doesn't know, she can't blame her. Now it's better to explain all these things clearly. She can't bear to blame her heart, which she watched grow up!
