Half a month later.
Chu Yi suddenly felt like she had become like Chu Xin. She liked to sit by the window and look at the scenery outside. She would sit there for half an hour and always felt as if there were many things on her mind.
"What is the princess thinking about?" It was Yuexiang who pushed the door open and said, "Half a month has passed since that day, and it should have passed no matter what. Your Majesty's most trusted person now is His Highness. He insists on being different from the past. The princess's My status is getting better and better, and everything is slowly getting better."
"Are you feeling better?"
Chu Yi looked at the sun outside the window. Just like the sun that day, it seemed that it had never changed.
"I always feel that His Highness has become even colder towards me. Chu Xin didn't come back that day. He sent people to search under the top of the mountain for seven or eight days over and over again, but in the end nothing was found. He didn't say a word after he came back. If you don’t see anyone, not even me, what do you think I should do? What do I mean to him in his heart?”
Chu Yi was stunned and didn't know what to do. That day passed so unremarkably. They just kidnapped a concubine. This matter was indeed not a big deal.
His Majesty immediately used this as an excuse to depose King Xuan and imprison him for life, while Xiao Zhi took people to the foot of the mountain to search over and over again. .
Even if it is dead, the body must be found, but in such a big place, who knows where it ended up?
"These are not big things. As long as His Highness's status becomes more noble, your status will rise and the more respect you will get. In the future, the princess will understand that what I said is right. People will indeed be immersed in feelings, but Just immerse yourself in it for a few days at most, and remember to get out in time."
Yuexiang smiled and persuaded her earnestly. It was actually good that Chu Xin didn't come back, so she felt that the house was much quieter.
"Do you think Chu Xin is really dead? Why didn't she even find her body when she was pushed off the cliff? Do you think she would have regretted it at that moment? Would she have thought about how stupid she had been? And would she have thought about the sacrifice she had made? The price is actually your own life?"
Chu Yi asked word by word, as if she was asking someone else but also herself.
What should I do if one day I do something wrong and there is no way out? Will I be like Chu Xin and let others slaughter me?
"People have to pay the price for their own stupidity. She insisted on fighting with the princess in the first place, so she should pay these prices."
Yuexiang has been on Chu Yi's side from beginning to end, but has no sympathy for Chu Xin. She has seen this kind of thing many times in the past many years in the Chu Palace.
I always feel that I am the most special one blessed by fate, but in fact, I am just an ordinary ordinary person.
It doesn't matter if the princess has a way out and makes a mistake, but if Chu has no heart, she will pay the price with her life if she makes a mistake.
"Your Highness is back today? Although His Majesty has just ascended the throne and has a lot of things to do, he is not as busy as before and does not come back every day, right?"
Chu Yi didn't want to talk about this anymore. Everyone was already dead, so it was useless to think about it.
"I just came here to tell the princess that Her Highness has returned. She is in the study. If the Princess wants to go, she can go. Now is the time when Her Highness needs someone to accompany her and comfort her."
Yuexiang nodded.
"Um."
When Chu Yi went to the study, she only saw a silhouette of Xiao Zhi standing by the window.
"More than half a month has passed, and you still can't let it go? We've sent people to search back and forth for seven or eight days, but still haven't found anything. Who knows where it fell, and who knows what happened. What surprise?
I know you are blaming me, but I have done everything I should do. I have sent people to rescue her, but they could not be rescued. What's more, you are unwilling to go there. His Majesty died that day, and no one can leave at will.
King Xuan saw this clearly and wanted to kill people to vent his anger, so let's stop blaming each other and forget about this, right? "
Chu Yi said something, then took a step forward, hugged Xiao Zhi's waist and said aggrievedly.
It's been so long, and it's impossible for Chu Xin to be alive. Since the body can't be found, forget it. Maybe you don't want anyone to find it?
If you fall from such a high place, what kind of fall will you get? It might as well be the best time in His Highness's heart.
"Why did Prince Xuan kidnap people have nothing to do with you? Princess Xuan came to the mansion so many times, what did you say to each other? Do you dare to say that this incident was not caused by you!"
Xiao Zhi pulled away the hands wrapped around his waist, turned around and looked at Chu Yi coldly.
I wonder why the person in front of me is so vicious. Normally, it’s just a small fight, but when did he actually have such deep thoughts?
"What are you talking about? Do you want to blame all this on me and feel free to blame me again?"
Chu Yi was suddenly stunned. Looking at Xiao Zhi's undisguised disgust, she suddenly felt a pain in her heart.
"You've really done enough! Why are you pretending to be in front of me now that you've reached this point? Pretending to be innocent and innocent? Do you really think I don't know what you've been doing to Chu Xin for more than a year?
I'll give you some face because you are the princess, and I don't want to make things too ugly, but do you have to kill people? "
In the past, Xiao Zhi was very tolerant, especially when facing Chu Yi. No matter how disgusted he was, he would only suppress it in his heart, but at this moment, he really couldn't bear it anymore.
He just hated the woman in front of him, hated her touch, hated every word she said, he felt so disgusting!
nausea! too disgusting!
"Why did Qingyun deliberately seduce me? Do you really think that I don't understand the reason? If I don't accept her, I'm worried that you will become angry and kill someone, so I made him your wife, Chu Yi, in the dead of night, you have to be kind So you can see how disgusting you are!"
This time, Xiao Zhi vented all the unpleasant words in his mouth. He couldn't bear it any longer. These days were really depressing!
It is really difficult to tolerate a woman who is both stupid and vicious!
"Are these your true words?" Chu Yi's eyes were already red.
"You know it all? So you have been watching my jokes? In your mind, I am that kind of vicious woman, but why do you say that to me? What qualifications do you have to say that to me! I am a princess, I can do whatever I want , who doesn’t have some means?
Do you dare to say that you are a pure and innocent person, and that you have not used any means? Okay, how did Qianqian die? Tell me, how did Qianqian die? What qualifications do you have to accuse me! "
Chu Yi has never been a person who can endure grievances. Even if she has an attack, even if the person in front of her is her husband, she has no right to accuse herself like this!
"Is it possible that there are so many rumors outside that you even believe it yourself? Do you really think Qianqian was killed by King Xuan? We both know how she died. Since your hands are stained with blood, why are you here to accuse me? What about me? Unless Chu Xin crawls out of the ground herself, only she has the right to blame me! "
Chu Yi stared at her red eyes and poked Xiao Zhi's shoulder with her finger. Since they are all people who have done evil things, why should she blame herself?
Sure enough, when Qianqian was mentioned, Xiao Zhi's momentum suddenly weakened, and he couldn't help but take a step back, not knowing what to say.
Qianqian was indeed killed by him, and Chu Yi also knew about it and covered each other up, so what happened that night happened so smoothly.
"We are all the same people. I really have no right to blame you. I am just angry because I know very well that the person who is really to blame is myself. All of this is my fault. I will always owe Chu Xin No more!”
Xiao Zhi shook his head in pain, all the memories were vivid in his mind. Every bit of the time he got along with in the Chu Palace when he was young, he once swore so firmly that Chu Xin was the only person who was so good to him, and he would definitely do it in the future. A good repayment.
But how did he repay it?
"Even if I am ashamed of Chu Xin, it is between me and her, but you!" Xiao Zhi pointed at Chu Yi, "What have you done in it? I am a despicable person. How dare you say that you are not Are you vicious? You are half responsible for her death!"
"It turns out that you still blame me from the beginning to the end. It doesn't matter. I am indeed responsible. So do you want to avenge Chu Xin? Do you want to kill me?"
Chu Yi smiled and shook his head, holding back the tears in his eyes. In fact, he had thought about this day for a long time. In the past half month, he had vaguely felt that there would be a quarrel.
I was already prepared for this when I came here today, but when I saw Xiao Zhi's disgusting look, I still felt a little pain in my heart.
In fact, she can understand what Yuexiang said, but people can't deceive their own hearts. There is a place for Xiao Zhi in her heart, and she always feels sour and jealous. So what should she do? She can't control it?
If people could control their emotions, they wouldn't do so many stupid things. So, all these things are a foregone conclusion, so what?
He is indeed responsible for half of Chu Xin's death, but only half. The other half of the responsibility lies with Xiao Zhi, who did not want to go!
"You know that I can't do anything to you, but you still say these words. You are always so condescending, so this is what I hate about you the most. I can't do anything to you, I can't do anything to you. …”
Xiao Zhi turned around, not wanting to see Chu Yi moving toward her waist again.
Now he doesn't even have the ability to take revenge. King Xuan has been deposed and imprisoned for life. But as for Chu Yi, can he really kill Chu Yi?
Will not.
In fact, I knew very well in my heart that I would not kill Chu Yi. I had tried so hard to marry her in the first place because I knew she would be of great use. How could I be willing to kill her?
So, all this is so ridiculous, so ridiculous. Why are you still missing me in a pretentious manner for half a month? Why are you pretending to be affectionate?
He has done so many evil things, and he has more than just Qianqian's life on his hands, so what qualifications do he have to miss Chu Xin?
She always had nightmares these days, dreaming that Chu Xin fell and was dripping with blood, and her once beautiful face became so scary. She said that she regretted it and regretted that she should not have insisted on marrying her.
I regret that I should not have had anything to do with myself in the first place, I regret that I should not tolerate this stupidly, and I regret even more that I got to know myself.
"You don't even want to look at me?"
Chu Yi sniffed hard and looked around, as if she had made a decision.
"Then this time I will pay for Chu Xin with my life! I don't want my impression in your mind to be such a vicious woman. Remember that I was also a carefree little princess back then, and I also remember that you smiled in front of me. When did we become like this?"
Chu Yi suddenly laughed. Everyone said she was such a vicious person, but she didn't understand why she was so vicious when she was a princess in Chu Palace. She was a princess and she had these rights!
Now that she is a princess and she is disciplining her concubine, what is wrong with her? She even failed to do anything because she was soft-hearted several times. How could she become vicious?
