"So when Shu'er was about to fall, Gu Xiao still only cared about Chu Yan," Xie Ruling's tone was very cold. This was a matter of life and death, and that Gu Xiao was still so rude and ignored the princess. Life or death!
"Well," Chu Xin nodded, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes. Of course she wouldn't like the person who harmed Chu Shu, "Fortunately, he was saved by another young master later, and that's what happened."
"Xin'er, I believe that what I did today will make Chu Shu see it more clearly. No woman will remember these love affairs after experiencing life and death. Life and death are important matters and nothing can compare with them."
Xie Ruling comforted her by saying, "Having experienced life and death, how could you still care about these romantic things?"
"I hope so."
Chu Xin could only place her hope on this, thinking about having a good talk in a few days, but tonight she suddenly wanted to see Xiao Zhi.
"Are you going to Nanyuan tonight?"
As soon as she saw Chu Xin's expectant look, Xie Ruling knew what she was thinking.
"Um."
Chu Xin nodded shyly. After all, her mother knew what she was thinking, and she was a little shy.
"Well, he's leaving here soon. If you want to see him, go and see him there. I'm afraid you'll miss him if you don't see him in the future."
Xie Ruling smiled and nodded. No matter what the emotion was, as long as the person is not here, it will eventually fade away.
"Isn't my mother unhappy about this matter at first? Why is she so happy now?"
Chu Xin asked curiously.
"Because he will always leave here, Xin'er, you have to know that time is a very scary thing. I believe you will be very sad and sad on the first day he leaves, but day after day, your My heart will slowly calm down, and this matter will no longer cause any disturbance."
Xie Ruling seemed to be talking to herself. Time was indeed ruthless and terrifying. When she recalled what happened back then, wasn't it without a trace of ripples?
Chu Xin listened quietly and did not speak, because she understood that what she said was right.
Just like those days in the cold palace when I was young, it seems a little distant, time is so ruthless.
When Xiao Zhi leaves for a long time in the future, maybe she will wonder if there is such a person living in Nanyuan, and will eventually forget about Xiao Zhi, right?
"If you want to go, just go. If you want to say anything, say it quickly while he is still here."
Xie Ruling patted Chu Xin on the head. These things will eventually pass. What she should be concerned about now is what kind of man Chu Xin should marry.
The princess will eventually get married when she reaches her age. The man she marries is a very heavy man. Your Majesty is not worried. The Queen Mother is ill and the concubine will not interfere. She is the only one to worry about these things.
"Um."
Chu Xin was obedient, and her heart was inevitably a little sour. Will she forget it in the end?
Chuxiu Palace.
"Did she hit you?"
Chu Yi was somewhat interested and took a closer look at Chu Yan's red face and couldn't help but smile.
"Sure enough, this is her true face. She usually pretends to be respectful, so I knew there must be something wrong with her. I didn't expect that she is such a person, and she was exposed in front of you!"
Chu Yi couldn't explain how she felt. She was excited and funny. She just felt that Chu Xin had been pretending to be honest in front of her for so many years. Was she pretending to be too uncomfortable?
"Sister, Chu Xin did it on purpose. He just thought I could hit him casually. He really doesn't take my sister seriously at all!"
Chu Yan cried aggrievedly, her eyes were filled with tears, her face was swollen, and she looked really pitiful.
"I always knew that Chu Xin never took me seriously, so I kept teaching her a lesson. Unexpectedly, it seemed to be of no use. The fact that she dared to do this in front of you shows that she is not afraid at all!"
Chu Yi said indifferently. She had known for a long time that Chu Xin was just pretending, so what happened today was not that surprising.
"But you did a good job in Zuixianglou. If Chu Shu is unhappy, Chu Xin will also be unhappy, so she can't pretend to be in front of you anymore!"
Chu Yi couldn't help but laugh and said, Chu Xin had been pretending to be good for so many years, but she couldn't pretend about this incident anymore, which showed how much this incident had hurt them, so of course she felt very happy!
"That's what my sister said."
Chu Yan smiled ingratiatingly. What she said was indeed quite right. If they didn't care about this matter, how could they be so rude?
"Tell me, do you also like Gu Xiao?"
Chu Yi is in a good mood today, so her attitude towards Chu Yan has also improved a lot.
"Why do you ask, sister?"
Chu Yan suddenly became shy. She naturally liked it, but she didn't know why she suddenly asked this question, and it was hard to answer for a while.
"Since he likes you so much, if you are also interested in him, I will go directly to the mother-in-law and tell the mother-in-law. If the mother-in-law goes to the father to order a marriage, what will my sister think?"
Chu Yi is good-tempered today, and Chu Yan has been honest and obedient by her side for so many years. If the two of them have feelings for each other, then it is not a bad idea to fulfill them.
"Really?"
Chu Yan was immediately overjoyed and beaming. She suddenly felt that it was all worth it. What a joy it was to be able to marry the man she loved!
What's more, after getting married and no longer in the palace, she no longer had to be angry with Chu Yi every day. All of this made her feel relieved.
"Yes," Chu Yi nodded and saw Chu Yan looking so happy. It seemed that they probably had feelings for each other.
"Thank you sister!"
Chu Yan cried with joy. It seemed that the grievances she had suffered for so many years were worth it. Chu Yi finally did a good deed and fulfilled herself.
"You go down first. I will talk to my mother and concubine. Then I will choose a good day to go and report to my father."
Chu Yi bowed casually. She was not interested in Chu Yan's affairs. At the moment, she just wanted to talk to her mother and concubine.
Zheng Yinghuan was resting on a recliner with a thin blanket covering her body. She said she was resting, but in fact she was just relaxing with her eyes closed.
She had not slept happily for a long time, and she went to sleep with many things on her mind every day.
The concubine is really getting more and more arrogant, but she still can't afford to offend her, so she can only hide away. How can there be such a ridiculous thing?
"Mother concubine."
Hearing her daughter's voice, Zheng Yinghuan opened her eyes.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Zheng Ying said with a smile that having her daughter by her side after all these years was a comfort to herself.
"I just wanted to come over and spend time with my mother and concubine."
Chu Yi squatted on the ground and leaned her head in Zheng Yinghuan's arms. She really felt sorry for her mother and concubine in these years, and she had suffered a lot of injustice.
"Yi'er, I've been sick since Mei Concubine appeared, and I haven't recovered from my illness until now. What do you think I can do to make me better?"
Zheng Yinghuan closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She had been holding this breath in her heart for these years. Could it be that she would not be able to take this breath out until she died?
"My father still likes that bitch very much, so my mother and concubine should not do anything easily."
Chu Yi said worriedly, what happened back then was still vivid in her mind, and her father seemed to really like that bitch.
If they take action rashly again, they will only push their father further and further away, and will only make that bitch even more proud.
"Don't worry, Yi'er. I don't want to do anything, because nothing I do can win your father's heart back."
Zheng Yinghuan touched Chu Yi's face, feeling a little desperate.
His Majesty loved his concubines not for a day or two, but for six years. This was a figure she had never thought of. How had His Majesty ever doted on any woman for six years?
Even the original Xie Ruling was not as beautiful as a concubine. God is so unfair!
"No matter what my father is, he always has his mother and concubine in his heart. Otherwise, why would he give you the right to control the harem? Having the right is enough."
Chu Yi could only comfort her like this at first. It was precisely because the mother-in-law used her power to control the harem that she could always maintain her face.
"Yes, these are enough, I shouldn't ask for anything more."
Zheng Yinghuan smiled and nodded, but there was always a little bit of reluctance, just unwillingness.
Not to be reconciled to the fact that they are both women, why do concubines have such a good life? Is it really because they have such a charming and charming face that they can capture His Majesty's heart?
Then she wanted to see if she could maintain her current splendor when her beauty faded in old age!
…
"I will miss you so much when you are gone. Maybe we will never see each other again."
Chu Xin said lonelyly, feeling sour in her heart. After hearing what her mother said, she felt even more unhappy.
The mother said that she might be very sad on the first day when Xiao Zhi left, but as time passed day by day, her sadness would slowly fade away, and in the end she might feel that Xiao Zhi Only this person never appeared.
Shaochu understood this feeling, just like when she was a child in the cold palace, she felt that she would never forget this time of hardship and suffering in her life. Unexpectedly, she had slowly forgotten it now.
Time is so cold and merciless.
"So are you willing to agree?"
Xiao Zhi lowered his head slightly and looked at Chu Xin's face carefully. When he returns to Beiqi next year, if there is no chance, maybe the two of them will never see each other again.
"What?" Chu Xin didn't react for a moment.
"After I go back, my father will definitely compensate me and allow me to make a request. When the time comes, I want to ask you to marry me. If you are not happy here, you can come to Beiqi and I will definitely protect you."
After so many years, Xiao Zhi's eyes were still very dark and bright, as bright as obsidian. Chu Xin raised his head slightly and looked at it quietly, almost fascinated.
"Even though I am not happy here, there are still people here that I can't let go of. I can't let go of my mother and my sister. After all, they are the people I can't let go of."
Chu Xin didn't dare to look at those eyes anymore, and lowered her head in embarrassment.
She did not live a very good life here, but after all, there were people she couldn't let go of.
The reason why he is embarrassed is because his mother loves him so much. If she leaves her mother after raising him, will it hurt her too much?
"I understand," Xiao Zhi did not continue to ask, just nodded with a smile, stretched out his hand to hug Chu Xin into his arms.
"Your mother must want you to live a happy life, but you and Chu Yi have been feuding for a long time. You will never live peacefully without her. Your sister will eventually have her own life, and she will meet people who love her. people."
Xiao Zhi spoke his true feelings gently, and it was true that Chu Xin was not treated well here.
"Um"
Chu Xin shrank into Xiao Zhi's arms, closed her eyes, and nodded.
She understands these truths, but after all, people are not cold people and have their own feelings. All this is really embarrassing.
"But if I go to Beiqi with you, I will definitely have a good time. That place is even more unfamiliar to me. I'm afraid that I will have nothing by then."
Chu Xin worriedly said that although she would sometimes be immersed in these loves, she would eventually return to reason.
After all, she had the status of a princess here, but after going to Northern Qi, she could only rely on Xiao Zhi.
If Xiao Zhi is unreliable, will she have no choice but to fend for herself in Northern Qi?
"Are you worried that I am not someone you can rely on?"
Xiao Zhi frowned. In fact, what he could rely on after returning was his father's fake apology. He was not willing to continue to be dominated by others, so he wanted to get a higher position.
He had planned this for himself a long time ago.
"People will change eventually."
Chu Xin closed her eyes and felt the warmth on Xiao Zhi's body.
"But I won't change."
Xiao Zhi smiled in the darkness, his eyes bright. He had always been full of calculations, and that would never change.
