"Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I sent the wrong thing because of my lack of foresight. Please forgive me. I think that thing has never been used. If your Majesty doesn't mind, I can go and get it!"
The little eunuch's eyes rolled for a while, and then he blamed Xie Ruling again. Anyway, it didn't matter if he sent the wrong thing. If this thing was used by someone who didn't have a good eye, then the problem would be big. !
"Are you talking about cloud brocade? I knew you must have given it to the wrong one. It is being kept in the house. I will get it for you right now!"
Chu Xin nodded happily. She knew that such a beautiful brocade was so conspicuous when placed among some ordinary clothes. She should have thought that it was the wrong gift.
Fortunately, I didn't use it indiscriminately and ran away now. It shouldn't be a big deal if I quickly get it and return it, right?
Xie Ruling didn't say anything, she was still concentrating on drying her clothes. From the sound of her voice, she knew it must be the mean Ting concubine. When she was a noble concubine, Ting concubine was always flattering in front of her, but now she is trying to please her. Zheng Yinghuan.
Ting Bin stared at Chu Xin's back as she ran into the house for a while. Is this Princess Xing'er, the daughter left behind in the cold palace after the abolition?
Just feel lucky that you are a princess and can still survive in the cold palace. It would be great if you can save a life!
"We have not tampered with this brocade, so I will give it back to you."
Chu Xin held the brocade in her hand and handed it to the concubine. She could only be thankful that she had a foresight this time and didn't make such a stupid mistake like the last time.
The concubine in the pavilion glanced at the Brocade, and then gave a look to the person waiting behind her. After receiving the order, the person behind her stepped forward and took the Brocade in her hands, then tore it into two halves and threw them away. on the ground.
The little eunuch didn't know why it happened, so he could only lower his head and look at the ground, pretending not to understand.
"What is this!"
From the moment Chu Xin ran out, Xie Ruling's eyes had already followed her, fearing that Chu Xin would be wronged again. When she saw the brocade that was torn in half, she immediately guessed that this was for another reason. What.
"When our queen's things came to you, they turned into trash that was torn in half. It's not because you didn't save it properly and destroyed our queen's favorite brocade. What do you think you should do?"
The waiter glanced at them condescendingly, his eyes full of arrogance.
"You are talking nonsense again. You just tore it apart yourself. Are you going to blame us again in front of everyone?"
Chu Xin was so angry that tears were about to come out. He knew that he might have fallen into someone else's scheme this time, but he also felt a deep sense of powerlessness.
Even this time, she carefully put aside everything she shouldn't touch, just waiting to send it back if someone came looking for it, but she didn't expect it to be like this.
Is it just because they are powerless in the cold palace that anyone can step on them? Even if they have made complete preparations, are they still unable to resist in the end?
"It seems you are determined to make me unhappy, right?"
Xie Ruling put the last piece of clothing on the shelf, walked over and put her arms around Chu Xin's shoulders.
"I haven't seen you for eight years and you are still like this. When I was a noble concubine, you were only worthy of following me. Now you are still following Concubine Zheng. It seems that you really haven't made any progress at all! "
In the past, Xie Ruling might have endured this tone, but now was different from the past, and she didn't want to endure it at all.
As he spoke, he hugged Chu Xin tightly. It could be seen that this little girl was really sad.
Actually, thinking about it, it was indeed Chu Xin who discovered something was wrong with the brocade at the beginning. Chu Xin clearly put it aside without daring to touch it, but he didn't expect that he would still be blamed for it.
"Isn't this the former imperial concubine?" Ting Bin stared unscrupulously into Xie Ruling's eyes. The words "once" were extremely important.
Even if you can go out, so what, after all, you will never return to your former glory.
"Even if your things were accidentally delivered to us, we haven't used them or damaged them. The people around you just tore them up. Do you want to blame these on us?"
Xie Ruling really couldn't bear it. In fact, she mainly felt that it was okay to hurt herself, but she didn't want Chu Xin to be wronged.
Chu Xin always kept in mind what happened to Tanhuo some time ago, so she was particularly concerned about weaving cloud brocade this time, but she didn't expect it would be like this. Thinking about it, she really felt aggrieved, right?
"What I say is what I say. Everyone here has seen it. This thing was sent to you. You did not manage it well and damaged the brocade. Everyone here is a witness. What can you do?"
The concubine raised her head high and stretched out her hand to touch the hair beside her ears. This time she came to test it out on the order of Concubine Zheng.
Looking at Xie Ruling today, she seems to have changed and yet not changed, but the arrogant energy is still there, but her appearance is indeed much more haggard than before. It seems that the eight years in the cold palace were not in vain.
Chu Xin clenched her fists in grievance, and realized that this incident was clearly done on purpose, and it must be deliberately framed for them!
Chu Xin was so angry that she clenched her fists hard and realized that there was really no sense in this palace. Even if she was extremely vigilant this time, it was still of no use. With her high status, she could show off her power and confuse right and wrong!
"It's just a piece of cloth, what do you want?"
Xie Ruling glanced disdainfully at the brocade on the ground. There were so many delicate fabrics that were torn into two halves and placed on the ground like this.
"I didn't expect that the imperial concubine would bow her head sometimes," Ting Bin smiled, "I still remember how beautiful the imperial concubine was back then. I can still vividly remember that time!"
Xie Ruling didn't show any expression when she mentioned the past. It was all in the past and she didn't care at all.
If Ting Bin thought that mentioning the past could hurt her, she would be totally wrong.
Many things can only be figured out for a moment. After you figure it out, you won't care about it or think about it all the time.
"What happened?"
Xie Churou came over with a cold face and saw the brocade on the ground, which was expected.
Fortunately, Qingyun next to her was smart. He said that he saw someone sending such an exquisite and precious brocade to the cold palace, and immediately noticed something was wrong and hurriedly came over to report it to her.
So I hurriedly came to Leng Palace, and I didn't expect to see this scene.
"I have met Concubine Shu, but I didn't expect that Concubine Shu would also come to Leng Palace?"
The Ting concubine's expression changed slightly. This concubine could be the Queen Mother's, so even if Concubine Zheng couldn't stand it, she wouldn't be too embarrassed.
Now that Concubine Shu is here, she still can't go too far.
"Get up."
Xie Churou nodded slightly. She had never been someone who liked to embarrass others.
"If there is a dispute over the brocade on the ground, then I can send a few more rolls of brocade to the concubine's palace. Is this satisfactory?"
In fact, I probably guessed what was going on, and I also roughly understood how the brocade was damaged, but at the moment, the most important thing is to calm these things down.
"Yes, then thank you for your kindness."
The concubine nodded in response. Even if she had some gossip in her mind, it would be hard to say it out. After all, the other party's position was higher than hers. She came here in person. She must have protected Xie Ruling, so if the trouble continued Not interesting.
"Now that the brocade weaving matter has been resolved, I will not disturb you here, so I will leave."
After the concubine left, the little eunuch who came to deliver the clothes suddenly understood what had happened. He could only scratch his head, bow to Xie Churou sheepishly, and then leave quickly.
"Princess Xin'er has grown so big," Xie Churou looked at Chu Xin with a smile, "The dress you are wearing was also sent by me. I see that you are wearing it just right. There will be more suitable and gorgeous clothes when you go out in the future. Dress.”
In fact, I feel a little sour in my heart. If the legitimate princess is satisfied just because she has gorgeous clothes to wear, it would be a bit sad, but it doesn't matter. She will always be able to enjoy what she deserves when she goes out.
"Thank you for coming. Let's go and sit down first."
Xie Ruling nodded gratefully, leading Chu Xin and Xie Churou to the stone chairs next to them, and they sat down one at a time.
"Thank you so much for the clothes you sent me!"
Chu Xin thanked Xie Churou. She could see that this empress looked really gentle and she liked her very much!
"No need to thank you. You are also a princess recognized by His Majesty. You should enjoy all this," Xie Churou said sympathetically.
In fact, she suddenly understood why Xie Ruling also raised Princess Xing'er. She seemed to be really sensible!
In the past, every time I came to Leng Palace, I would stand outside and watch from a distance. I could see Princess Xing'er running back and forth to help with things. No wonder Xie Ruling would raise her as her own daughter.
"Before I go out, all kinds of intrigues and intrigues have come up again. In the past eight years, my life in the cold palace has been pretty good. Although I am a little cold and hungry, at least I don't have to move every day. My brain has returned to its old aura of fighting before I even got out. It’s really tiring!”
Xie Ruling said boredly, and touched Chu Xin's head again, hoping that she would be in a better mood. Whether it was about the charcoal fire thing last time or the brocade weaving this time, there was nothing to blame.
Chu Xin is already a smart little girl, just like when she looks at her daughter, she thinks everything is good no matter how she looks at it, but how can she see that she is not good at all!
"It is indeed very tiring," Xie Churou nodded empathetically, "But at least we have our aunt to protect us. Every time I go to see Concubine Zheng to pay her respects, I always have to say a few sarcastic words, but they are just a few words. , and they don’t dare to really attack me.”
Xie Churou sighed helplessly. Nowadays, the concubines in the harem are either flattering Concubine Zheng, or they are not favored and are unknown. She does not want to please the concubine like this, so her life is not so easy.
In fact, if someone says a few sarcastic words to you, that's it. At most, you won't take it to heart, but sometimes it's really annoying if you say too much.
Now I think that Xie Ruling will be able to go out soon. No matter what, the two sisters can be companions and keep each other warm.
"The princess can also leave the cold palace. This is what the Queen Mother said. Her Majesty has no objections. It seems that she has agreed. Is the princess still happy?"
"Well, I won't be cold or hungry after I go out. Of course I'm happy!" Chu Xin smiled and nodded.
"It's just that after we go out, can I still stay with my mother?" Thinking of this, Chu Xin's whole little face wrinkled up again, feeling a little sad.
