"It's just a dead person, so what if you say a few words? It's been so long and it's turned into a pile of bones, so what's there to be afraid of? The princess doesn't have to be afraid at all. If she is, wouldn't she? Did it satisfy her?"
Yuexiang patted Chu Yi on the back and comforted her heartily. That bitch called the princess like this even after she died, and had nightmares all night long. It was really harmful!
"She must hate me and think that I killed her master, but is it all my fault? Wasn't it Chu Xin's stupidity that killed herself?"
Chu Yi rubbed his forehead irritably. It was really uncomfortable to have nightmares all the time, especially the bloody face, which was really scary.
"What the princess said is indeed her own stupidity. It has been so long. People should look forward. What else can they do if they die?"
Yuexiang never paid attention to these things. When she was serving the imperial concubine, she had dealt with many people before, so these things were nothing at all.
What's more, the princess didn't do it herself, so what's there to feel guilty about? It's not His Highness who is really watching with cold eyes, so even if you want to blame it, you have to blame His Highness!
"Yuexiang, you stay here with me. I can't sleep and I don't dare to sleep again."
Chu Yi stretched out her hand to help Yuexiang up and asked her to sit on the edge of the bed. She glanced at the window and saw that it was already dawn.
"In addition to being scared of Mingyu's bloody face, I also feel a little guilty. I'm sorry for Chu Xin. When she was here in the past, I just felt that no matter how I looked at her, I just didn't like it. Now that she's gone , I suddenly felt a little guilty..."
Chu Yi was half leaning on the bed, squinting her eyes slightly, so more than half a year had passed since the original incident, but in her heart she seemed to be unable to get over it.
"This may be a big deal or a small matter, but I just lost a side wife. This is not something that the princess should not care about at all. What's more, His Highness himself doesn't even care about it! He indeed sent someone to look for it at the foot of the mountain. After searching for several days, why don’t you just come back when you haven’t found anything? It shows that those feelings are nothing more than this, and the princess must take this as a warning!”
Yuexiang never misses any opportunity to persuade. It can be seen that the current princess is still too soft-hearted despite her young age. On the surface, she looks aloof, but deep down in her heart, she is still very soft.
"How could I not know what you are saying? His Highness has been treating me like that since Chu Xin died, especially when there were more women one after another in the backyard. I don't know if he is angry with me or if he is angry with me. Is this the nature?"
Chu Yi closed her eyes and didn't want to open them again. She really felt that her life was so tiring now.
I thought that as long as Chu Xin disappeared, life would slowly get better, but unexpectedly it seemed to get worse, because there were more and more women in the backyard, all the daughters of various high and low officials in the court. .
You can't punish Chu Xin at will and humiliate them like that. It would be fine if there are people who keep their own rules, but most of them refuse to accept anything. From time to time, they dare to say some weird words in front of him, and many times they become what she wants. I was holding my breath.
"That's because His Highness is a man, and it is impossible for a man to have only one woman by his side. Even when he had the deepest feelings for Chu Xin, he had no intention of marrying her alone from the bottom of his heart. It is just his nature to be like this now!"
Yuexiang sneered. As the person who served the princess closely, how confident she was to speak in front of those side ladies, she knew what kind of virtue those women had.
"These women one after another are really boring. Now I finally understand how my mother felt. This feeling is really painful. Every day when I open my eyes and wake up, it seems that I have never been happy. of.
His Highness came into the palace from time to time to help His Majesty handle government affairs. The time he returned to the palace was so short that I didn’t know if he was avoiding me on purpose. "
Chu Yi really felt that life was getting more and more boring. Not only could she not see her husband, but she also had to face so many jealous women in the backyard. These people were really courageous!
The old routine of treating Chu Xin didn't work for them at all. After all, she was the daughter of various officials. Being the side wife meant that she was on good terms with Xiao Zhi. No matter how angry she was, she couldn't go too far.
After it was completely bright, it was time for the side ladies to come to pay their respects. After washing and dressing up, as soon as they went out, they saw the Mrs. Hui whom they hated the most.
Among so many women now, she is the only one who dares to look at her so provocatively. Chu Yi sneered.
"The princess looks very unhappy. Could it be that she didn't sleep well and had another nightmare?"
Seeing Chu Yi coming over, Shen Minghui was the first one who dared to speak. Among these concubines, her father had the highest official position, so she naturally had some confidence in speaking and doing things.
As soon as these words were said, the other side ladies couldn't help but laugh secretly. Why the princess had nightmares was spread quietly in private!
Just say that maybe he did something wrong.
"Mrs. Hui speaks so freely, but still remembers her identity?"
Yuexiang gave him a cold look and scolded her. What she said meant that it was the princess who said it.
Shen Minghui just rolled her eyes in her heart and said nothing more, not wanting to argue with a servant.
"Shen Minghui, you haven't been able to recognize your identity since the day you entered the palace. Do you know who the mistress of the palace is?"
Chu Yi was already in a bad mood, and looking at Shen Minghui's look made her even more bored. How could there be such a disgusting woman?
"Yes, it's my fault. It was His Highness who said he liked me at first, and also said that the princess is gentle and easy to get along with. I didn't expect that I was stupid and believed this. Now it seems that the princess's temper is really bad..."
Shen Minghui lowered her head in grievance, as if she was frightened, and was a little afraid to speak anymore. In fact, what was there to endure?
Her father's official position was not low, but he had many children, and she didn't have much presence in the family, so she was sent to be a concubine.
This princess seems really arrogant and domineering, but she is not a softie, and she will never tolerate it.
"That's enough for you. You are still pretending like this in front of me. Do you think that if His Highness doesn't come back, you won't care what you look like?"
Chu Yi suppressed her anger and looked at Shen Minghui coldly. After only three months, she felt that this woman was really annoying.
But Xiao Zhi had given orders. Now was the time to win over her father, but his daughter could not suffer any injustice. Therefore, besides himself, he had the highest status in the palace. Sometimes he had to endure it. .
"I just said a few words at random. Why is the princess so easy to get angry every time? Isn't it too small-minded to get angry after just one sentence?"
Shen Minghui looked at Chu Yi without fear, "Ever since I came to the palace, I heard that the princess always has nightmares at night. Can you tell us what kind of regretful thing you dreamed about that makes you so scared?"
They all said that the fight in the backyard was the scariest thing about the turmoil that they heard about when they were still married. How did the former concubine die? There must be many secrets in it, right?
That's all, her father never considered this at all when he gave her to King Xiang, because she was not his father's favorite daughter. If she could be given to King Xiang to show friendship, she might be regarded as a useless daughter in his father's eyes. The greatest use!
But people will always have grievances. How could they not mind at all when they are being given back and forth like gifts?
Just because he knew that now was a better time for Prince Xiang and his father, he also knew that even the princess had to give herself some face.
"You are brave!"
Chu Yi stood up angrily. Normally, he would have been slapped a few times, but now he could only endure it. Xiao Zhi had said that he would slap Shen Minghui no matter what. How much face, this bitch!
"Princess, did I say the wrong thing? If I said the wrong thing, I would be here to keep you company. I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I said the wrong thing to make the princess unhappy."
As if she was frightened, Shen Minghui quickly stood up and apologized aggrievedly, tears streaming down her face as she spoke.
In fact, the crying at this moment can be considered sincere, because I don't want to come here at all, let alone be given away like a gift.
"Princess, why don't we forget it this time? Mrs. Hui has already admitted her mistake?"
Qingyun thought about it again and again, and finally spoke carefully to persuade him, "It's better not to make this matter a big deal, right?"
"Shut up! Who are you! How dare you say these things in front of me!"
Chu Yi stared at Qingyun. There were really more and more women in the backyard. In the past, she and Chu Xin were the only ones facing her, but now she realizes how peaceful the life was in the past.
"What happened again!"
Xiao Zhi just returned home and felt the quarrelsome atmosphere again. He frowned and felt really bored. It seemed like it was like this every time he came here, with a group of women arguing back and forth!
"Your Highness?"
Seeing that Xiao Zhi was coming, Chu Yi's anger immediately subsided, and her eyes were full of joy. It was really hard to see him now.
Shen Minghui didn't feel anything at all, her tears were still flowing drop by drop. She didn't want to be sent here in the first place, and she didn't have any feelings for Xiao Zhi.
I just feel that my own destiny is not up to me, floating here and there like duckweed on the water.
If you fall into a good place, it will be good. If you fall into a quagmire, you can only accept your fate and there is no other way.
"What's wrong with Hui'er? Are you crying so wronged?"
Xiao Zhi put his arms around Shen Minghui, looking at the tears on her face and feeling very distressed, as if Chu Yi didn't exist.
"It's nothing, it's just that I said the wrong thing again and made the princess angry. It's appropriate for her to give her a few words. Why are you back today?"
Shen Minghui smiled aggrievedly and shook her head. While talking, she was still leaning in Xiao Zhi's arms. She could feel the look in Chu Yi's eyes, but so what?
Is a woman like Chu Yi worthy of being a princess?
They are so small-minded, clinging to trivial matters, and are always ready to embarrass and ridicule them.
But she won't bear it. Chu Yi has made her so angry that she must pay it back. It can be seen that she cares about His Highness very much, so is she afraid that she will be angry to death now?
