Chu Yan couldn't help but take a few steps back in despair, even saying such hurtful words, what on earth did Gu Xiao want to do!
"Just because of this inexplicable woman, are you willing to say such things to me? Do I really have no place in your heart?"
Chu Yan covered her heart and felt a lot of pain. At this moment, she suddenly wanted to squat down and cry heartbreakingly, thinking that after crying, everything would be solved, okay?
Just pretend that these conflicts have never happened, just pretend that she and Gu Xiao have never been indifferent, just pretend that they are still as loving as before, okay?
"Master, you really shouldn't say such things for me. Although I don't know what the conflict is between you and Madam, it seems that it really hurts Madam's heart!"
Lian'er tugged on Gu Xiao's sleeves and shook her head unbearably.
In fact, she really felt guilty. Seeing Chu Yan's eyes red like this, she felt a little unable to hold her head up.
But I'm really sorry, I'm really sorry, I really just want to stay here with this gentle man, I just want to find a good home for myself.
If she really stayed here in the future, she would never dare to compete with Madam for anything. As long as she had a place to stay, she would be satisfied!
"Shut up!" Chu Yan pointed at Lian'er and cursed fiercely.
"What qualifications do you have for a bitch like you to act pretentious in front of me? Do you want to stay in the house? Do you want to be my husband's concubine? You don't even care about your status. I am a princess and your majesty. My biological sister, what are you, a lowly person who was sold to a brothel!"
Chu Yan deliberately humiliated her and said some unpleasant words on purpose. After saying it, her heart was filled with pleasure.
He felt satisfied when he saw that Lian'er didn't dare to look up at him. Why did such a bitch hide in Gu Xiao's arms? Why did she occupy her husband!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Chu Yan stepped forward and tugged on Lian'er's sleeves, trying to pull her away. Unexpectedly, she was pushed so hard that she almost lost her balance.
"You are really crazy! Normally you are very weak in front of me, but now you are pointing at people and shouting curses. This is your true face! I have nothing to say, Lian'er, I must stay by my side, and His Majesty has never Please do not do anything that will embarrass us all!"
Gu Xiao directly pulled Lian'er away without looking at Chu Yan again, and just left decisively.
"No, no!"
Chu Yan shook her head in despair and wanted to reach out and grab it, but the back figure kept disappearing from her sight, and she couldn't catch it at all!
Why are the words coming out of Gu Xiao's mouth so cold, and why are her eyes so cold, even with a bit of disgust.
But it happened that his hand was always protecting Lian'er, and he was so gentle to other women, just like he was to his former self.
Has his tenderness and love now been transferred to other women?
Northern Qi Dynasty.
"Tomorrow I will go to the East Palace to meet the Crown Princess. The Fanghua Garden said that the Princess has already prepared the things that need to be prepared, so we don't have to prepare them. The Madam can just follow the Princess directly tomorrow."
Luzhu warned her thoughtfully, in fact, tomorrow will probably be the home court for the Crown Princess and the Princess, and they will just say some polite words for the occasion, while Madam Side only needs to follow behind.
"Yes, I understand," Chu Xin nodded, "Luzhu, you are from Northern Qi, so can you tell me what kind of person the Crown Princess is and what taboos she has. I'm afraid I will say the wrong thing tomorrow. .”
"Mrs. Side, the Crown Princess's name is Xu Miaorong. She is a dignified and gentle woman. There is nothing taboo about being in love with His Highness the Crown Prince. She is not someone who likes to embarrass others. Mrs. Side does not have to worry about tomorrow."
Lu Lu thought about it carefully. In fact, the Crown Princess had nothing to avoid at all. Her temperament was not as sharp as the Princess, so what was there to worry about?
"I think she must be an extremely gentle woman. No wonder His Highness the Prince loves her so much."
Chu Xin smiled slightly, feeling a little envious.
In fact, she felt that her life was good or not, but she felt good even if it was not. She only saw Chu Yi every once in a while, and basically stayed in her yard every day.
When Xiao Zhi first came over, Chu Yi would definitely make trouble for him the next day, either saying a few harsh words or making sarcastic remarks.
But later on, she didn't say anything more often. I guess she got used to it.
How terrible, it turns out that people like Chu Yi can get used to it.
What about her next?
"Mrs. Side, the letter you wrote a few days ago has been sent to Dachu. You should receive a reply in a while!"
Mingyu smiled and said, in fact, this is something that people look forward to.
"That's good, I'm still waiting to see the reply from mother and Shu'er!"
Sure enough, when she mentioned this matter, Chu Xin's eyes lit up. This was really exciting. She wanted to see what her mother and Shu'er had written and whether their life was good there.
Xiao Zhi still didn't come tonight and stayed at Fanghua Courtyard. Chu Xin didn't wait either, she just went to bed by herself and would have to get up early tomorrow.
Early the next morning, when Chu Yi had just finished dressing up and went out, she saw Chu Xin already waiting in the house.
"You came early. Remember what I said to you. Follow me if you can't speak. Don't embarrass yourself in front of the Crown Princess. It will embarrass your husband!"
Chu Yi glanced at her condescendingly. After Yuexiang arranged her clothes, she left directly. Chu Xin didn't say anything, just followed her.
Chu Yi naturally took the largest and most luxurious carriage. She didn't want to sit in the same carriage as Chu Xin, so she could only sit in the second-class one.
Chu Xin didn't care about this at all. It would be nice not to sit with Chu Yi, otherwise there would be nothing to say if they sat together.
"Mother, tea and cakes are all ready."
Kefu said respectfully.
"That's good. Princess Xiang and the concubine will come over today, so I can meet them all."
Xu Miaorong looked carefully at the things brought over. Everything was in good condition, so she was satisfied.
"I just don't understand, why does the empress want to see the concubine?"
Kefu asked curiously, seeing Princess Xiang, she naturally understood that Princess Xiang was the direct sister of His Majesty Da Chu, with a distinguished status, and the concubine was nothing more than that, so why did he need to see her?
"I know this myself."
Xu Miaorong smiled softly, obviously not planning to answer.
Kefu understood the meaning of these words and did not dare to ask again.
When they arrived at the East Palace Gate, two carriages stopped. When the people in the carriages came out, someone immediately came to greet them.
"I have met Princess Xiang and the concubine. The Crown Princess has been waiting for a long time, so I took the princess and the concubine over."
Ke Shao immediately stepped forward to say hello respectfully, and after saying that, he led the way.
She knew the identity of Princess Xiang, so she didn't dare to neglect her at all.
Chu Yi, on the other hand, restrained herself a bit. This was the East Palace after all, and she was the princess she was going to meet later, so she knew the importance.
"I've met the Crown Princess."
After arriving, Chu Yi nodded and said hello, and Chu Xin followed behind her.
"Princess Xiang, don't worry about it. Today, I just want you to come and talk, so that you can get familiar with each other. I know that you come all the way from Dachu, so I asked you to make pastries from Dachu. I also want you two to taste them." .”
Xu Miaorong seemed to have no airs at all. She was extremely gentle. Not only did she take care of Chu Yi, she also smiled at Chu Xin.
Chu Xin was a little flattered. She never expected that the noble princess would look at her and immediately smiled back.
"This sweet-scented osmanthus cake is indeed my favorite cake. The Crown Princess really means it!"
Chu Yi took the pastry and took a small bite. In fact, the sweet-scented osmanthus cake was nothing more than that. She didn't really like eating it. Instead, she found it too sweet.
At the moment, I only took a small bite in front of Xu Miaorong. Normally, I wouldn't touch it.
"As long as Princess Xiang likes it."
Xu Miaorong smiled softly. It wasn't like she didn't realize that Chu Yi only took a small bite. On the contrary, Chu Xin took a piece of chestnut cake and ate it with relish, which made her even more fond of her.
"The concubine looks like she really likes the chestnut cake. Ke Fu, I will pack up the chestnut cake and send it to Prince Xiang's Mansion later!"
Xu Miaorong immediately told the people around her that as the crown princess and her husband's virtuous wife, she must also have a good relationship with these princesses.
Just looking at this Princess Xiang, she doesn't seem to be easy to get along with.
"yes."
Kefu immediately went down to prepare.
"Thank you, Crown Princess!"
Chu Xin immediately thanked her. How should I put it? She really felt that the crown princess looked very gentle and approachable. No wonder the prince liked her so much.
Chu Yi was a little unhappy, but due to the scene at the moment, she could only squeeze out a stiff smile.
Sure enough, this Chu Xin can only humble herself like this. She is just a few pieces of chestnut cake. Is she worthy of such thanks?
What's more, the Crown Princess only looks so good on the surface, who knows what she is thinking secretly!
"I heard that you are both princesses of Dachu. I think you should be able to live in harmony. Otherwise, my husband will have to worry about things in the backyard, which will really mess up your mind."
Xu Miaorong said intentionally or unintentionally, glancing between the two of them. After only a few glances, he knew what kind of temper they both were.
This Chu Yi is really unpleasant. I heard that she is the biological sister of His Majesty Da Chu. No wonder she has a somewhat arrogant and domineering temperament.
"That's natural. As a princess, I must take care of the affairs of the palace. I must not let my husband worry about things in the backyard. This is what we, as women, should do!"
Chu Yi blocked it back without taking it seriously, and did not answer the question directly, nor did she bother to answer. Is it inappropriate for the Crown Princess to keep interfering with matters in her own house?
"That's what Princess Xiang said."
Xu Miaorong smiled lightly. In fact, there were not many women in the East Palace, and none of them could surpass her. It was quite easy to deal with them.
Only when the family and home are in harmony can a man have the energy to do other things, but if there is no harmony...
Xu Miaorong suddenly looked at Chu Xin and smiled lightly.
Chu Xin really felt that the princess looked really gentle, not condescending at all. In addition, she had someone send the chestnut cake back, which really made her feel flattered.
But when I went back, I was humiliated a few times by Chu Yi. They just said why she was so good at pleasing people. Could it be that she learned it from childhood?
Chu Xin just smiled and shook her head, not caring. The princess was kind-hearted and was willing to say more words to her and smile at her more. Why should Chu Yi be like this?
"Don't worry, Mrs. Side. The slave has said that the Crown Princess is gentle and will never do anything to embarrass others. Things went very smoothly today. The Crown Princess even sent chestnut cakes over!"
Chu Xin was sitting in front of the dressing table. Mingyu and Luzhu were standing behind her, taking off the hairpins on her head one by one.
The hairpins I wore today were all gold hairpins, which felt a bit heavy on my head.
