Qingyun stood by the side with a shy face, but after waiting for a long time, Xiao Zhi still didn't say a word to him, so he bit his lip and didn't know what to do.
"Mrs. Side seems a little unhappy today. Is she unhappy to see me?"
Qingyun looked at Xiao Zhi's face and quickly looked away.
"What are you unhappy about?"
If he said anything else, forget it. Xiao Zhi originally wanted to ignore it, but when it came to Chu Xin, he wanted to ask more.
"Mrs. Side may think that with my presence, adults will not be so concerned about her, so she feels unhappy?"
Qingyun said intentionally or unintentionally that when he saw Mrs. Side just now, she didn't have any dispute. On the contrary, she treated herself with courtesy, which was much better than the princess treated her.
But there was no other way. She could only obey the princess's orders.
Xiao Zhi didn't say anything and acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He was still concentrating on writing.
Then he fell into a long silence again. Qingyun was also asking for trouble. It seemed that His Highness's heart was not in him at all at this moment.
"Your Highness, don't you want to talk to me? Then why do you want me to come and accompany you?"
Qingyun bit her lip in grievance. It had been almost half an hour since she came in. Except for a few words she just replied to when she mentioned Mrs. Side, the rest of the time she was talking to herself. It seemed that no matter what she said or did, your highness would not. It’s like you’ve never heard or seen it before.
In this case, why did you call yourself here? Just stand here like a piece of wood.
"Didn't the princess want you to be my wife? I just fulfilled her wish and asked you to stay with me to make her happy."
Xiao Zhi was still cold, just concentrating on writing without looking at the person next to him, always acting as if that person didn't exist.
"Your Highness, what do you mean by this? Could it be that you asked me to come here just to fulfill the princess's wish? It seems that the princess's position in His Highness's heart is really important. I am really envious of her!"
Qingyun could only squeeze out a smile, feeling that these things were really inexplicable. The princess said that His Highness was just a partial wife, but now it seems that His Highness clearly doesn't like the Princess. What is all this fuss about?
But there was no choice but to continue standing here. After staying in the house for two hours, I finally got out. I felt that my legs were going numb.
"It seems that His Highness still likes Madam!"
The people waiting around her had smiles on their faces, and they all thought this was a good thing. They let their mistress go in and stay with her for so long. It seems that His Highness still likes her!
Qingyun smiled helplessly, unable to say anything. He was really tired and just wanted to go back and have a good rest.
His Highness said that this is what the princess wants. Will the princess really be happy?
"This bitch!"
The sapphire tea cup on the table was thrown to the ground again, and Chu Yi once again lost his temper.
Yuexiang shook her head, not even thinking about persuading her anymore. The princess really had not made any progress at all, and all her words of persuasion were in vain!
As a princess, but she cares about a slave, she has already lost.
"Although it is true that I sent her to His Highness, I am still not happy even so!"
Chu Yi walked around the room irritably. It was better now. I don't know if Chu Xin was sad at the moment. At least she was really annoyed to death at the moment!
"Qingyun is just a slave, and she is a slave in the hands of the princess. The princess has caused such trouble because of her existence. It is really beneath her status!"
Yuexiang sighed deeply. She had watched the princess grow up. She had not changed at all since she was a child. When she lost her temper, she did not care about her identity at all.
In the past, it was okay to be a spoiled and willful princess, but now that she is a princess and the master of the palace, she has to manage the affairs of the entire palace. It is really childish to be so emotional!
Chu Yi was so angry that she couldn't speak. She still felt unhappy at all. She felt that she was angry every day after getting married.
"Why does the princess promote Qingyun? She just wants her to play her role. Since she has been given the status of master, it is time for her to answer!"
Yuexiang walked over and personally helped Chu Yi sit on the chair, comforting her softly.
"It's not like she was given the job of being a master for nothing. It's natural that she has to put it to use. Now the princess can just watch from the other side. She doesn't need to do many things herself, so just let her do it!"
"You mean?" Chu Yi calmed down, "It's indeed time to do something for me! This master's identity is not given to her for free!"
Qixiayuan.
As soon as Chu Xin returned, she saw Qianqian sitting in her room angrily, as if waiting for her to come back.
"What's going on? Is there anything unhappy?"
Chu Xin smiled and asked Luzhu and Mingyu to go down, then walked over and touched Qianqian's head and sat next to her.
"I told my sister a few days ago, but she still doesn't believe it! Now it's better, everyone in the house knows that there is another lady!"
Qianqian curled her lips and looked very angry, as if she had rarely seen His Highness since she was brought back by her sister.
I clearly remember that the two of them love each other very much, why are they willing to neglect their sister like this?
I originally thought that His Highness had a lot of things to do, but I didn't expect that there was nothing at all. Instead, he had a new wife. He had time to spend time with other people, but he didn't even have time to see his sister. How could His Highness, who was once so good, change? What's up?
"Actually, I am not the wife he is marrying. His wife is the princess. In essence, there is no difference between Qingyun and I. We are both just wives."
Perhaps even Chu Xin herself had never thought that one day she would say such words so lightly. In fact, it was also the truth.
She is very grateful that Qianqian is here to fight against her injustice. In fact, she is just the side wife and a concubine like Qingyun. The real mistress in the palace is Chu Yi, and she is the only serious princess.
"elder sister?"
Qianqian held Chu Xin's hand with some distress, and she keenly felt the helplessness of these words.
"But didn't you two love each other very much when I saw you that day? Didn't His Highness treat you very well? Isn't it wonderful that you two were inseparable together? Why did it change after you came back? Why didn't His Highness come over?"
Qianqian was still unwilling and asked reluctantly, not understanding how things ended up like this.
"Okay, these things are very complicated and cannot be explained clearly in a few words. You don't have to worry about these for me. Just live your life happily every day. I felt very tired when I came back just now. You go first Go back to your room and let me rest for a while.”
Chu Xin smiled and touched Qianqian's face. After watching Qianqian leave, the smile on her face disappeared immediately. Sometimes she really felt that living like this was boring.
Xiao Zhi was no longer the same person as he remembered. After arriving here, everything was completely different from what he had imagined. Only then did he realize how big the gap caused by his identity was.
Chu Yi is the princess, and everything she does is justified and justified, but as for me, I have to suffer from her embarrassment all the time, and now I have another Qingyun.
And it was precisely because of Qingyun's appearance that she finally saw her identity clearly. She and Qingyun were essentially the same, they were both just wives.
So what does everything that has happened in the past count?
There are many things that I don’t understand more and more. Why does Chu Xin do this? Does she just want to make Chu Yi angry, but why is she unwilling to explain to herself?
"Mrs. Side must be feeling bad, right?"
Mingyu had been waiting outside the door, but he could understand Chu Xin's heart, so he came in now to talk to her.
"Do you still remember those days in the past? I thought that the relationship with Xiao Zhi was so beautiful and deep, that it would not matter no matter what kind of hardships I suffered, but it seems that I was wrong.
It seemed like it was nothing serious, but the relationship between me and him seemed to be slowly wearing away in the passing of the day.
I didn't realize it just now, but I could actually say that sentence in an understatement. There is no difference in my identity from Qingyun, we are just Mrs. Side.
So just now when Qianqian was fighting for me, I felt a little ashamed. I'm not Xiao Zheng'er's wife, so what right do I have to care about this? "
Chu Xin smiled slightly and pulled Mingyu over and sat next to her. In fact, the only people she was really familiar with here were Xiao Zhi and Mingyu beside her.
I am really unfamiliar with this place in Northern Qi, and I can only speak a few words with the people here, including the Crown Princess Xu Miaorong.
"So does Mrs. Side regret it?" Mingyu looked at him distressedly, "Actually, I wanted to ask this question before, but I can see that Mrs. Side was avoiding it. Now Mrs. Side can accurately tell the answer in her heart. Yet?"
Chu Xin looked down at the ground and was silent for a long time, then nodded slightly.
Yes, I seem to regret it a little.
"Actually, nothing earth-shattering seems to have happened between me and Xiao Zhi. We live peacefully day by day, but I always feel that my relationship with him has worn away a lot."
This is where Chu Xin feels the most desperate. She just watches helplessly as the relationship between the two slowly fades away. She can't tell what has changed, and there is no way to make up for it.
Because I am not the wife of his wife, I am not even qualified to talk about this. It is precisely because of this that I feel a deep despair.
Chu Yi can naturally lose her temper because she has the right to do so. She is just asking for love from her husband. What could be wrong?
Xiao Zhi is indeed her husband.
"My Majesty had already thought of this at the beginning, but she resisted telling Mrs. Side because she didn't want Mrs. Side to be poured cold water on when she was happy. My Majesty has always respected your decision, but now I feel that It would be great if the empress asked you to stay, but what does it mean to be like this now?"
Mingyu really felt regret at this moment. Why did he make things so easy in the first place? Why didn't he let his empress give him some more advice?
The number of women in the backyard will only increase, not decrease. Now that there is one more Qingyun, it is inevitable that there will not be a second Qingyun in the future, or even a third or fourth. What will become of their side wives by then? ?
In fact, now that I think about it, everything the empress said is right. It is the most stupid thing to rely on wishful thinking and all your courage on feelings.
Emotions will eventually fade away, and just like at this moment, she really felt Chu Xin's despair.
