"I know very well what I'm talking about, but you, I think you are getting more and more confused! Do you really want to see what is happening now? Do you really want to see the love of that Northern Qi woman, His Majesty!"
Zheng Yinghuan excitedly took Xie Ruling's hand, her eyes full of sarcasm.
She thought that the existence of Meizhu would make everyone in the harem hate her, but she didn't expect that one or two of them would be so indifferent!
No, absolutely not!
"I know what you mean. You are just treating us as pawns and want us to fight with the concubines. But I'm sorry, I'm afraid you can't do it."
Xie Ruling broke free from her hand and looked at Zheng Yinghuan's appearance, suddenly feeling a little sad.
"Because I really don't care about these things. I don't care who His Majesty favors. It has nothing to do with me. In fact, you don't have to care so much. Your life has been very good in the harem. Now we are not the age we were when we were teenagers. It’s also time to understand many things.”
Xie Ruling sighed. In fact, when you were young, who didn't think you were the special one?
But she stayed in the cold palace for eight years, which was a long time, enough for people to think about many things.
What's more, she also has Chu Xin. Early childhood education has regarded Chu Xin as her biological daughter, and her attention is also on Chu Xin.
"Don't you still have children? Just take care of your children. We have already reached this age, why should we continue to fight?"
Today, Xie Ruling let go of the hatred in her heart and was willing to talk to Zheng Yinghuan calmly.
"Hahaha!" Zheng Yinghuan laughed loudly and disdainfully, "Xie Ruling, you are afraid! You are still afraid after all these years!"
After Zheng Yinghuan stopped laughing, she felt that everything was so ridiculous and sad.
For so many years, she thought that she was the most powerful one in the harem and the one who was most favored by His Majesty.
But she didn't expect that just the appearance of a small bead of love would break everything she thought was beautiful. How ridiculous, how ridiculous!
"Yes, I am indeed afraid," Xie Ruling admitted frankly, "I have spent eight years in the cold palace. Do you know how I got through these eight years? Naturally, I am afraid of these fights."
Xie Ruling calmly looked at Zheng Yinghuan's tears. In fact, what is there to be dissatisfied with in all this? Do you have to be wishful thinking to get the love that does not exist?
How can there be love in your Majesty's heart?
Mu Wan was a living example back then. Why did Zheng Yinghuan think that she would be His Majesty's favorite?
"You go, I'm tired and not interested in talking to you."
Zheng Yinghuan shook her head helplessly, and walked step by step to sit on the seat above. When she slumped down, she only felt a sense of sadness.
How did things become like this? Why did a woman like Mei Zhu appear?
Xie Ruling was unwilling to say anything more and bowed and left.
"Why did mother come back so late?"
Chu Xin waited at the door for a long time. She was a little uneasy at first, but when she saw Xie Ruling's figure, she immediately rushed towards her.
"It's just that the imperial concubine said a few words to keep me here. It's nothing."
Xie Ruling took Chu Xin's hand and went in. What happened just now did not leave a trace in her heart.
Yes, she no longer cares about this.
"I always feel that the concubines in these times are very bad. Is it because they are concubines?"
Chu Xin asked curiously. Although she didn't know what her father was like in the past, she could tell at this moment that her father really doted on that charming concubine.
Is it because of this that the imperial concubine is unhappy?
"yes!"
Xie Ruling pulled Chu Xin to sit down and nodded vigorously.
"You have to be more careful in the future, and be sure not to offend Mei. Now she is someone we can't afford to offend. Even if Chu Yi offends her, there will be no good end."
Xie Ruling warned her carefully. Although she knew Chu Xin was very well-behaved, she still had to say what needed to be said.
"I know," Chu Xin nodded obediently, "Then what kind of person is he? Even if others don't provoke him, is he willing to live in peace and contentment?"
Xie Ruling thought carefully for a while, and it seemed to her that Mei Bi was not a simple person.
"It's precisely because we don't know that we have to stay away. Even if we see him, we still have to live with him. This is the only way for now."
After much thought, Xie Ruling could only do this. That Mei concubine seemed to be definitely not a simple person, but no matter what, they should not get involved in this matter.
Zheng Yinghuan would not give up. The look just now showed how much hatred she had in her heart, but this had nothing to do with her. How they wanted to fight was their business.
Chu Xin nodded obediently. It was not something they, as children, could care about which concubine their father liked.
I just feel like it's pretty good, at least Chu Yi won't be able to cause trouble to her during this period.
Inexplicably, she suddenly thought of what Chu Shu said. Chu Shu was obviously a well-spoken sister in her opinion, but why didn't she dare to say anything in front of Gu Xiao?
"Mother, what would it be like to like someone?"
Chu Xin asked curiously, since Chu Shu liked Gu Xiao very much, why didn't she dare to go forward and say it?
"Why do you ask?"
Xie Ruling's heart moved. Could it be that her daughter had someone she liked?
"No, I'm asking for Sister Shu," Chu Xin quickly shook her head, "It's what Sister Shu said last time. She can't say anything in front of the people she likes and becomes extra timid. Mother What do you think this is like?"
"It turns out it's her," Xie Ruling smiled reassuringly, "Now that you are still young, if you say you like me and wait until you and Ji grow up to like her in the future, then you really like me, but likes must last time. What a test!”
As Xie Ruling was talking, she suddenly felt a little dazed.
She remembered that when she first entered the palace, her heart was all for His Majesty, and she felt that she might never fall in love with another person in her life.
But she didn't expect that when she thought about it now, things really changed and she could see her own heart clearly after suffering for eight years.
I also saw clearly that His Majesty was definitely not the man I imagined. His Majesty would not be sincere and he would not really fall in love with any woman.
Even if it is Meizhu that I like most at the moment, it is just that Meizhu has a charming appearance and looks a bit novel. When the time comes, won't everyone still be disgusted with it?
In fact, Zheng Yinghuan does not need to be as excited as if he is facing a powerful enemy. He only needs to wait slowly. Everything will calm down when the day comes.
"Do you have to wait that long?"
Chu Xin asked. She looked at Chu Shu who seemed to be serious about what she said that day, and didn't seem to be joking.
If she had to wait another six or seven years, would Chu Shu's heart still change? Would she still like Gu Xiao?
"Yes," Xie Ruling smiled and nodded, "Human love is very short-lived. If it is just such a short-term love, it is nothing. Only a long-lasting love can be called true love. ,Do you understand it?"
Xie Ruling advised her intentionally or unintentionally. She didn't want Chu Xin to experience this feeling. It would be nice to have a quiet life in the future.
Chu Xin listened to these words with a vague understanding. It takes a long, long time to like her to truly like her...
…
Chu Yu had just left the court and was going to the Zichen Palace to handle government affairs, but he was disturbed by the urgent news from the palace people.
"Your Highness, I don't know if Concubine Mei is suffering from some strange disease. Her face is all red and swollen!"
The palace man was trembling all over. Now everyone knows that His Majesty cares about Concubine Mei the most. He will definitely be furious when he hears that something happened to Concubine Mei.
"What!"
Chu Yu's heart suddenly sank, and he still felt vaguely in pain.
He couldn't figure out what was wrong with him during this period, why he was so fascinated by that woman, and he felt uncomfortable all over after not seeing her for a moment.
Very infatuated, that is a very infatuated feeling.
Mei Zhu was lying weakly on the bed. Compared with her usually enchanting and charming face, at this moment her face had no powder on her face and her lips were pale and she looked really weak and in need of someone's love and affection.
But on such a face that needs love and affection, there is a particularly red and swollen place, which is really shocking.
"His Majesty."
Faintly she saw a tall man approaching, Mei Zhu muttered softly and tried to get up, but she was held in someone's arms.
"I'm here, what's going on? What happened?"
As soon as Chu Yu came in, he saw that the beauty at the top of his heart had become like this. The usually bright red lips had become weak and pale. He was really distressed and his whole heart was squeezed.
"it hurts…"
Mei Zhu lay weakly in Chu Yu's arms, her crystal tears flowing down drop by drop.
Normally she was charming and enchanting, but now she was as weak as a pearl about to break.
Heartbroken, Chu Yu was really heartbroken. He didn't know where the inexplicable emotions in his heart came from. He only knew that he enjoyed it and was willing to immerse himself in these emotions.
He reached out and hugged Mei Zhu tightly. He had never loved a woman so much.
All I know is that when facing Mei Zhu, he will always involuntarily focus all his attention on her, unwilling to let Mei Zhu suffer any grievances, and wanting to give her the best.
But now Mei Zhu is so weak, and the redness and swelling on her face are so dazzling. What on earth happened?
Obviously he has given Mei Zhu everything, but he has been promoted to the concubine position in just a few days, and everything is the best.
Why are you still lying in your arms so weakly? What went wrong?
Anyone who dares to be so bold as to hurt the woman he loves the most will have to bear the consequences!
