"My brother has met the emperor."
Chu Jing bowed and saluted.
"You're here," Chu Yu turned around, "Sit down, I came here today to talk to you about something."
"yes."
A look of surprise appeared on Chu Jing's face. Apparently, he had already heard about what happened when he entered the palace.
"Is it because of Concubine Jing?" Chu Jing asked.
"Indeed," Chu Yu nodded, "My feelings for Ru Ling are very complicated. I did like her somewhat at first, but I had to put it aside for various reasons. So many things happened later, and I There are eight years between me and her, and I can’t tell what kind of relationship I have left at this moment.”
Chu Yu looked at Chu Jing with a complicated expression. In fact, his feelings for this younger brother were also very complicated at first.
On the one hand, I feel that my mother is too biased towards my younger brother, and I always have some resentment in my heart, but after all, I am a sibling, and I should let go of all these knots in my heart.
What's more, his younger brother is very respectful to him. Even if he wants to find fault, he can't find any fault.
After all, they are brothers, let alone such respectful brothers, so they temporarily put aside all these grievances.
"Concubine Jing has always worried my mother. When she left eight years ago, my mother also talked to you many times. But His Majesty was angry at that time, so he missed this series of events due to a strange combination of circumstances. For the past eight years.”
Chu Jing thought deeply, "Since you are willing to come out, it is a good thing. If the emperor can give Concubine Jing such a title, I believe the empress also knows what it means."
A hint of joy appeared in Chu Yu's eyes. Sure enough, he was a biological brother of the same mother, and he could understand what he was thinking.
The title of Concubine Jing was given in the hope that Xie Ruling could be quiet and not be as indulgent and willful as before. He only liked women who were well-behaved and obedient.
So when I saw the supple Xie Ruling that night, I felt a sense of freshness in my heart.
But he was afraid that after Xie Ruling came out, she would repeat her previous mistakes, so he gave her such a ban.
He only hoped that Xie Ruling could understand the meaning of this title and not make him feel disgusted like before.
"indeed so."
Chu Yu nodded.
"It's just that my brother has heard that Concubine Jing wants to raise Princess Xin'er?" Chu Jing asked tentatively.
When Chu Xin was mentioned, Chu Jing suppressed the excitement in his heart. Back then, he knew that the princess would come out one day, but he didn't know when it would come out.
Even if there is no chance to come out, he will find a way to work hard.
"If you want to keep her, then just keep her. It's not a big deal." Chu Yu was a little impatient. "My mother has already agreed to this, so I can't say anything."
When he wiped out the Mu family, he actually felt a little afraid in his heart, because he was afraid that if he didn't wipe out the whole family, what would happen if the descendants of the Mu family came back?
At first, he even wanted to die with Mu Wan, but he was already pregnant at the time, and he could only stay alive for the sake of reputation.
So when he gave birth to a son, he specially asked people to see him. If it was a son, both the mother and the son would die. But if it was a daughter, he would be merciful and spare one life.
"Actually, as the emperor said, she is just a princess. You don't need to take it to heart. She finally came out of the cold palace. What's more, the emperor has never abolished her status as a princess. It's better to just let Concubine Jing Your Majesty will take care of it, right?"
Chu Jing tried his best to control his emotions. As much as he loved Xun'er, he felt sorry for the child in the cold palace.
Fortunately, Chu Xin was born to avoid all this tragedy. Even when he saw Xun'er coming out first, he was ready to fight to the death.
When I saw that the baby was born from an aunt, I immediately felt relieved, because I knew that if it was a daughter, I would be able to survive.
Chu Yu nodded indifferently. He really didn't care. He really didn't care about these things. He had many sons and daughters, and Chu Xin was indeed insignificant in front of him.
"Brother Huang can try to ease the relationship with the Queen. In fact, the Queen also feels a lot of guilt towards Brother Huang, but she just used it in the wrong way."
Chu Jing said tentatively, but could only change the topic here, for fear that he would make a mistake if he said too much.
"I have my own plans for these things."
Obviously Chu Yu didn't want to talk about these things. What happened to Xiang Shi was his biggest hurt and he would never forget it.
At that time, he was raised by Concubine Rong. In fact, he knew that Concubine Rong was not his biological mother, so she was just like that, not close to him, and she was always separated by a layer.
Later, when he returned to his biological mother, he was already very old, and he was indifferent to her, and there was always a layer between him and her.
At that time, his mother also gave birth to a younger brother, and he was so kind to his younger brother. He saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.
Therefore, his temper became more and more suspicious, and he felt that he did not believe in anything, and that nothing was worthy of belief, so he was so ruthless against the Mu family, and he did not cherish Mu Wan at all.
He never felt that this was wrong. As long as he could protect himself and make himself feel safe, then rights were the greatest sense of security.
So when he was the prince, he must try his best to reach the highest position. Mu Wan is the daughter of the Mu family, and marrying her will be the greatest help.
But after he really succeeded, he became suspicious of the Mu family again. Maybe all this is a cycle that will never end?
…
Chu Yi was walking around in the imperial garden. In fact, she had privately asked the palace official where Nanyuan was some time ago. She really couldn't remember the route she took with Mao Mao last time.
But she really couldn't remember, and she was unwilling to give in. She wanted to go back to that place and take a closer look. She had always had such an impulse in her heart.
"Where do you want to go, princess?"
Yuexiang asked. She felt something was wrong with the princess these days. She always wanted to go out to play, but she always walked away without knowing where she was going.
"Every time I come out, I just keep nagging in my ears!" Chu Yi said angrily, "Shut up and don't talk from now on, otherwise I will ask my mother-in-law to punish you when you go back!"
Chu Yi has her own thoughts and doesn't like her thoughts to be interrupted.
"yes."
Yuexiang bit her lip, lowered her head and said no more.
Chu Yi walked around, thinking about the news he got from the palace people last time, and found that road. As expected, he saw the familiar courtyard as he walked, and there was a surge of joy in his heart.
It was a very happy feeling, as if she had finally got something she had missed for several days!
"You just stand outside. If I don't call you, you are not allowed to come in!"
Chu Yi turned around and shouted to Yuexiang and Yueying. She didn't like the feeling of having her joy interrupted, and she didn't want anyone to find out.
"yes."
Yuexiang and Yueying are worthy of nodding. Although they are reluctant to stand outside, they can only stand outside at this moment.
The two of them can only pay attention to something at all times to avoid getting the princess hurt inside.
Hearing the slightest movement from outside, Xiao Zhi sat on the steps and smiled lightly. He had been waiting for a long, long time.
He knew what kind of virtue that powerful person had, and he also knew what to say to make others happy. Sure enough, this noble little princess would come by herself.
As soon as Chu Yi came in, she saw Xiao Zhi sitting on the steps. What caught her eyes were still those obsidian eyes, which made her fascinated.
Yes, it was these eyes. She just wanted to see these eyes these days, so she wandered around the imperial garden!
I finally saw it today. It’s so beautiful. It’s still as beautiful as in my memory.
There was a feeling in her heart that she didn't know what it was like, but this feeling made her very happy, so happy!
"your Highness."
Xiao Zhi screamed, but did not get up. He just stared at Chu Yi softly, his eyes were very gentle, so gentle.
"Why are you sitting here?"
Chu Yi suddenly lost her previous arrogance and domineering attitude. She suddenly felt that she didn't know what to do or say. She felt that if she was more arrogant, would she not be like a princess anymore and would she leave a bad impression?
This was the first time she had a feeling called nervousness, and under the gaze of such a pair of beautiful eyes, she felt a little at a loss.
"If I don't sit here, where can I go?" Xiao Zhi smiled, "If I say that I am waiting for the princess to come and talk to me, will the princess believe it?"
Chu Yi was suddenly stunned for a moment, but then her heart erupted with great joy, so happy, really so happy.
Those obsidian-like eyes seemed to emit waves of attractive whirlpools, and they seemed to have drawn her in. She couldn't get out, and she could never get out again.
She didn't want to go out, she just wanted to indulge in this gentle whirlpool.
"I heard from my mother and concubine before that protons are not allowed to go out and walk around at will. It is indeed boring for you to stay here, but it doesn't matter. I will come over and talk to you. Everything will be fine!"
Chu Yi squeezed her little hand to calm down a little, walked up to Xiao Zhi, and looked at him closely.
"What is the princess looking at?"
Xiao Zhi blinked, and his eyelashes touched Chu Yi's white and tender face. Chu Yi felt a little itchy on her face.
"I'm looking at your eyes. Your eyes are much prettier than my mother's obsidian eyes. I really want to keep you by my side. I can see you when I want to see them. That would be great!"
Chu Yi stretched out her hand to touch Xiao Zhi's eyes, but the moment the phone was about to touch her eyes, Xiao Zhi closed her eyes, and she could not touch those beautiful eyes.
I felt a little disappointed in my heart. I was really disappointed and had a sour feeling. What you wanted was clearly in front of you, but suddenly everything came to an abrupt end.
"What do you want to do, princess? She has a noble status, but she doesn't dare to let her touch a humble person like me."
Xiao Zhi closed his eyes tightly, but he could feel Chu Yi's breathing and some warmth on his face.
Is he lucky to have such curiosity from the noble princess?
Funny, really funny.
Isn’t that what a superior princess is like?
"I never thought you were a mean person!"
Chu Yi tilted her head slightly and stared at Xiao Zhi's face carefully. She did think that she was the noblest princess, but she never thought that Xiao Zhi was a despicable person.
She was willing to get close to him just to see his beautiful eyes, which had already captured her heart.
Don't want to let go, don't want to leave, don't want to walk away.
"I am truly lucky to have such attention from the princess."
Xiao Zhi suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Chu Yi closely.
Chu Yi seemed to be startled, and looked away shyly, her heart beating so fast.
"Didn't you want to look at me just now? Why are you moving your eyes away now?"
