"Don't worry, sister. I really don't know what kind of feelings I should have, but I'm really not sad, so I'm not holding on. Sister, you really don't have to worry about me."
Chu Shu smiled and shook her head. Her smile was not forced out, but she really didn't care.
In fact, even she didn't react. She thought she was going to cry, but she was really calm, so calm that her heart was focused on the peach blossom picture at the moment, thinking about what she should draw. .
"Why? Is it because of what happened last time?"
Chu Xin said softly.
"Well," Chu Shu nodded openly without concealing anything, "Sister is right, last time she really made me see clearly that all things are not worth mentioning in the face of life and death.
I only know that the moment I was about to fall, what I saw was him protecting Chu Yan in his arms. Maybe at that moment, my relationship for so many years became a joke.
If I still have illusions and continue to be entangled, then I will become a joke. I don’t want to be like this. I am a princess, how can I be so humble! "
Chu Shu raised her head high, her eyes no longer looked as sad and painful as before. She could still choose another man. Isn't Gu Xiao the only man in the world?
What's more, the imperial edict has been issued and everything is a foregone conclusion. Isn't it good to let Gu Xiao and Chu Yan, two lovers, finally get married?
"Shu'er has really grown up, which is good." Chu Xin smiled and praised, "It seems that I should learn from my sister when encountering such things in the future. No matter what, people must think about themselves. Live a good life, and don’t waste your feelings on people who don’t deserve it.”
"My sister is much smarter than me. I believe that even if she encounters such a situation, she will naturally have her own solution."
Chu Shu stood up again, picked up the pen, and continued to draw the unfinished picture of peach blossoms. Maybe it was because the last stone was finally removed from her heart after she said the words.
At this moment, it’s like she is writing like a god, and one after another lifelike peach blossoms are blooming under her pen.
She sincerely wishes that Gu Xiao and Chu Yan, the two lovers, will eventually get married. There is really no reason to say who likes and dislikes whom, so I wish them a loving husband and wife in the future.
This wedding was quite grand, and Zheng Yinghuan also gave her all the rewards she deserved with a wave of her hand, allowing Chu Yanfeng to marry into the Duke's palace in glory.
After all, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, this was a happy event that would dispel the bad luck in the harem, and she did not dare to be careless. The princess's marriage was considered a big event, and the various rewards must not be shabby.
Chu Yan was sitting in the sedan chair, her heart already beating non-stop. She would remember this day forever. This was the day she left the palace.
She has never had any feelings for this palace. She can only bear endless grievances in the palace. From now on, she can finally stay away from Chu Yi. Even if the other party wants to embarrass her, she will not be able to embarrass herself.
What's more important is that she can be with the man she loves. They are a legitimate couple. Her suffering is finally over.
After all the ceremonies were over, Chu Yan sat shyly in the room waiting for Gu Xiao's arrival. What should she say later?
Do you want to express your feelings for so many years? No, it seems that there is no need. The two of them don't need to talk so much at all, because they already understand each other's feelings.
But she wanted to say it out loud, wanting to tell Gu Xiao that he was not the only one who liked her, and that she had had love in her heart for so many years at home.
Feeling that her hijab was suddenly lifted, Chu Yan's heart skipped a beat. It was finally this moment. When she looked up, she saw the person she had been thinking about for so many years.
"Yan'er, today we finally got married. This marriage is a blessing granted by His Majesty, but I feel it's not enough. I want to give you more."
Gu Xiao gently lifted the hijab and looked at Chu Yan with exceptionally gentle eyes. Today was the day he got what he wanted.
"Do you know how happy I am today? Before all the ceremonies started, my heart had been beating and couldn't stop. I finally left the palace and finally arrived at the side of the man I love."
Chu Yan boldly reached out and grabbed Gu Xiao's hand. Now that they were a legitimate couple, these contacts were as they should be.
She just wanted to express her feelings about her life over the years. She originally thought that her life was terrible, but she never thought that she would be able to get married and marry the man she had liked for so many years. This was God's gift to her. blessing!
"It has been difficult for me to survive in the harem for so many years. I could only rely on Chu Yi and do many things that I didn't want to do at all. I had no choice but to do many things. Now that I have finally left there, I finally no longer have to pretend to do anything. Something I don’t want to do anymore!”
Chu Yan's eyes were already moist. How could she not feel aggrieved when she mentioned the grievances she had suffered over the years? How could she not want to cry?
Gu Xiao stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears on Chu Yan's face. When she was deeply in love, she leaned forward and kissed her forehead. He didn't want to see Chu Yan crying. Every time she cried, her eyes would become really red. Very much like an aggrieved rabbit.
"All the pain is over. Now you are my wife. If you are by my side, I will not let you be wronged. Everything will be a new beginning."
Gu Xiao held Chu Yan in his arms distressedly. He loved and protected his wife as a matter of course, and he would never let the woman he loved so much be wronged.
Absolutely not.
Chu Yi stayed in his palace boredly, and Chu Yan's wedding ceremony was just so-so.
After all, the Queen Mother and her father are still ill, so it's not easy to take care of them. What's more, Chu Yan is not the daughter of the mother-in-law, so she just needs to keep her face.
But she felt that Chu Xin was actually unhappy. Didn't Chu Shu like Gu Xiao? Why should she cry and die of grief tonight?
"Princess, aren't you going to rest yet?"
Yuexiang brought a basin of water over and planned to wash Chu Yi.
"No need," Chu Yi waved her hand. She was very happy at the moment and didn't feel like she wanted to rest. Instead, she wanted to visit Chu Yi's place.
"Concubine Mother has already rested. Follow me to Zhongcui Palace. I have something I want to talk to Sister Xin'er!"
Chu Yi stood up with a smile on her face. This time she wanted Chu Xin to feel the feeling of frustration. She wanted Chu Xin to feel the feeling of powerlessness.
"yes."
Yuexiang could only follow Chu Yi. She couldn't figure out why the princess was still thinking about her grudge with Chu Xin after so many years. Couldn't it be settled after so many years?
"What are you doing here?"
Chu Xin had already rested. When she heard someone came to report, she could only put on her coat and go to the outer hall. Her mother had already rested and no one came to disturb her.
"Today is the day when my father will marry Chu Yan. The banquet in the palace is still being prepared. Did sister take a rest so early?"
Chu Yi looked around at the surrounding environment. Chu Xiugong was really inferior to his mother and concubine, and smiled disdainfully with a look of disgust.
"I have no interest in these things, and I have no friendship with Chu Yan. Her affairs have nothing to do with me. If you come here to say these things, there is no need. I am also tired and want to rest."
Chu Xin didn't pay attention to this. She understood that Chu Yi might have come here specifically to ridicule her tonight, but she really had no intention of quarreling.
Because she doesn't care about these things, Chu Shu doesn't care about these things either.
"Chu Xin, you don't have to pretend in front of me. Otherwise, how do you think I know the secret between you and Chu Shu? Otherwise, why did Chu Yan go so punctually that day? Otherwise, why would I let my mother and concubine go and beg my father to do this? An imperial edict granting marriage? It’s all because I don’t want you to have an easy time, but anyone close to you won’t have an easy time either!”
Chu Yi took a few steps forward and got closer to Chu Xin. Looking at the other person's face, she really felt extremely disgusted. She really hated this face.
"You know, I really hate you. I really wish you had never existed. Your existence makes me feel sick and disgusted!"
Chu Yi leaned close to Chu Xin's ear and said through gritted teeth, she just hated Chu Xin and wished Chu Xin would die right now!
"The first time we met was when you gave me a basket of charcoal fire, and then your mother was scolded because of the charcoal fire. If you say hate, it should be me who hates you. I don't know what I did to let you Have you held a grudge for so many years?”
Chu Xin took a step back helplessly. She really couldn't figure out where she had offended Chu Yi. After so many years, she still kept doing these little tricks.
Maybe she should be grateful that there are concubines in the harem. If there were no concubines, wouldn't the imperial concubine be even more lawless, and wouldn't Chu Yi do more arrogant and protective things?
"I just want to hate you! I just hate you. There is no need for a reason because your existence is a mistake!" Chu Yi gritted her teeth angrily.
"You know, you should have died in the cold palace, you should not have been born, your mother was deposed, you should not exist!"
Speaking of the most disgusting part, Chu Yi grabbed Chu Xin's shoulders angrily, and her nails dug into her flesh.
"So what? I survived after all. I am still the blood of my father. My mother was once the queen! The only queen!"
Chu Xin vigorously shook off Chu Yi's hand. She would not be hurt by these words, because after so many years, she no longer cared about these words in her heart.
I didn't know how many unpleasant words I heard in the cold palace when I was a child, but they all didn't matter anymore.
"Queen, she has already been deposed! What qualifications do you have to say this! Do you think you have any sense of superiority in front of me!"
Chu Yi's eyes were red with anger. She didn't expect Chu Xin to be so sharp-tongued and sharp-tongued, and her words would be so irritating, and she would even specifically poke at her sore spots.
"I have never wanted to compete with you. I just want to live my own life. It is you who are arrogant and you want to compare yourself with me. I have obviously given in on many things, but you You must fight for the upper hand, you are asking for trouble!"
Regarding Chu Yi's madness, Chu Xin seemed extraordinarily calm. She didn't understand why Chu Yi did all this. What was there to be angry about?
