"I know that this is the image I have in the princess' mind, so the princess came here personally to see if I was pretending to be sick."
Shen Minghui smiled sarcastically, but still felt that she had a terrible headache, and the fever was really unpleasant.
"You don't need to talk like that. His Highness has not been back for more than a month. It seems that he doesn't want to come back to see you. Your position in his heart is just this."
Chu Yi suddenly smiled while sitting by the bed. Is there actually a deep hatred between herself and Shen Minghui?
It doesn't seem to be the case. Those grudges and grudges in the past seem to be nothing more than trivial matters now.
The reason why she hates Shen Minghui so much is simply because her resentment against Xiao Zhi is found in her, but now it seems that there is no need for it.
Xiao Zhi didn't like Shen Minghui that much, so what he did was meaningless.
"Your Highness doesn't have me in your heart, and it's not the first day I know this."
Shen Minghui laughed to herself. She never imagined that she would meet someone who truly loved her. What's more, at this time, she was sent to Prince Xiangxiang's Mansion just to show her attitude.
How could she be so lucky to find someone who truly loves her? The chance of this is really too small.
Chu Yi suddenly fell silent, not knowing what to say.
Sometimes I feel that my thoughts are really confusing. Sometimes I feel hopeful and then become very desperate. Sometimes I really want my mother to come over and teach me. What should I do?
"Since you are sick, you should take good care of yourself."
Chu Yi felt bored and left after leaving a few words.
I feel that the whole palace has become so quiet, so quiet that I don't want to do anything. I don't even have the energy to punish the side ladies, because it seems to be of no use at all.
royal palace.
The store was as warm as spring and filled with charcoal fire, while Xiao Zhi stood by the window with an expressionless face.
In the past few days, the emperor's waking time has been getting less and less, and there is nothing else. The only trouble is that the queen always wants to come in and serve, which is really troublesome!
But this is understandable. If the emperor's brother is gone, who is she as a queen?
The corner of Xiao Zhi's mouth curled up slightly. It was indeed useful to keep that little girl. The spices he prepared were indeed effective. He only needed to add a few more things.
That stupid woman, the queen, wears the bracelet that Chu Xin gave her on her hand every day. Didn't that lead to the current consequences?
Thinking of Chu Xin, my heart suddenly ached slightly. It was the biggest regret not to find her body. Even if she couldn't save anyone, her body had to be buried in the ground. But I didn't expect that she couldn't even do this. arrive.
The winter in Northern Qi seems to be extremely long. It is already March, but it still feels very cold.
This year's winter seems to be much longer than before. I wonder when spring will come.
"Your Highness."
Someone pushed the door open and walked in, looking very familiar.
"General Tao."
Xiao Zhi turned around and saw the person coming, smiled, walked over and sat down, and then made a gesture of invitation, gesturing for the person to sit directly opposite him.
"Your Highness," Tao Yong also smiled back and lowered his voice, "Is Your Majesty spending less and less time awake every day? Most of the time, Your Highness is handling affairs. At the beginning, all the ministers disagreed. I didn’t expect that His Highness is quite capable. As time goes by, the number of people who oppose it is decreasing one by one.”
"Your Majesty is awake for less than an hour every day. Even if you wake up, you will be so dizzy that you won't be able to do anything for a while. Even the Queen I don't want to let her in for fear of disturbing your rest."
Xiao Zhi even poured the tea himself and handed it to Tao Yong. The other party was a general with military power, so he was naturally very useful.
In the past, he was the emperor's most trusted subordinate, but so what, people will change after all.
Now the imperial brother is seriously ill and lying in bed, fearing that he will not wake up one day. A smart person will naturally have to seize the opportunity and choose a more useful master for himself.
"It is indeed troublesome."
Tao Yong frowned, obviously dissatisfied. The plan had already reached this point. It would be bad if the queen disrupted it.
"Indeed," Xiao Zhi agreed. He had been unwilling to return home for more than a month. Naturally, he did not want to see that troublesome woman. He had already lost his temper at the beginning, so there was no point in going back.
What's more, he doesn't like such an arrogant woman as Chu Yi, no matter how long they stay together, he will never like her.
At this moment, Chu Yi is sitting on the carriage entering the palace. It doesn't matter if others can't go in to see His Majesty. She is Princess Xiang now, who dares to stop her?
What's more, she just wants to see her husband, so what's wrong? She hasn't seen him for more than a month, so naturally she wants to know what's going on in the palace.
Unexpectedly, I was stopped again when I got to the door. This was already the fifth time.
It's not that she hasn't entered the palace for more than a month, but she has been blocked outside. This time she has to go in no matter what!
"Presumptuous! Do you know my identity!"
Chu Yi's eyes widened and she assumed the posture of a princess.
Forget it in the past, why can't she put on airs now? Now everything is handled by her husband, and her status as a princess has already risen with the tide!
Sure enough, as soon as this gesture came out, the palace man quickly lowered his head and explained.
"Princess, it's not that I won't let you in, but that Your Highness is busy at the moment and won't let anyone disturb you! I don't dare to let you in either!"
The palace servants could only persuade her one by one, but it was obviously of no use. Chu Yi had already made up her mind to go in today. She just came to see her husband, so why couldn't she go and see her?
During the dispute, the door suddenly opened, and the person who came out was Tao Yong. When he saw the upright and slightly red Chu Yi, he was stunned for a moment.
Today, Chu Yi is dressed very radiantly. Every time she enters the palace, she dresses in the most beautiful way. What's more, the appearance of the Chu woman is more delicate, and she is indeed somewhat beautiful.
"I've met Princess Xiang."
Tao Yong knew the identity of the other party just now during the dispute. Tao Yong quickly reacted and bowed his hands.
"When did His Highness say today that he will not see the princess? You are so bold that you even dare to stop the princess from outside!"
Looking at the ungrateful palace servant, Tao Yong directly scolded him. After scolding him, he looked at Chu Yi again.
"Thank you."
Chu Yi's attention was all in the room at the moment, just to see if Xiao Zhi, whom she hadn't seen for more than a month, had anything else to say!
She is not a fool, nor can she not understand the current situation. It will not do her any good to continue to have trouble with Xiao Zhi.
Lifting up the hem of her skirt and walking up the steps, when she passed by Tao Yong, her sleeves slightly touched his hand. Even though she had already walked inside the house, the fragrance still lingered around the tip of her nose.
Tao Yong glanced back and only saw Chu Yi's back. She was indeed beautiful with her long hair reaching her waist.
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing that the person coming was Chu Yi, Xiao Zhi's expression suddenly turned cold again. This was in the palace now, and if he made more noise, it would really be a joke.
"You are my husband, what's wrong with me coming to see you? You asked people to stop me outside the door a few times before, do you still want to stop me today?"
Chu Yi was not polite and walked over directly.
"This is the palace, and I don't want to quarrel with you here."
Xiao Zhi was still very cold.
"We are husband and wife, why do we quarrel when we meet? I just want to be your wife. I know my temper is a bit indulgent, but I will try my best to correct myself in front of you. Are you still unwilling to give me a chance?"
Chu Yi tried her best to calm down her temper and resist the urge to make a noise. She was well prepared to come here today. It was not easy to see her once. She really didn't want to waste her time on these quarrels.
Xiao Zhi didn't speak, still sitting and drinking tea. The conversation he just had with Tao Yong was a foregone conclusion, so he just waited for the day to pass slowly.
"I am your wife. We have been married for a long time. No matter how big the dispute is, we are always in the same boat. I will support you no matter what you do."
Chu Yi gritted her teeth and walked over to kneel down next to Xiao Zhi, grabbing his arm and speaking aggrievedly.
It's all her fault for having a bad temper, but is she really useless? Is it really not of any use? Is it really not helping Xiao Zhi in any way?
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Zhi suddenly turned to look at Chu Yi. There were only two of them in the room, so he just said what he wanted to say.
"Why did Your Majesty become so ill? Isn't it your fault?"
Chu Yi lowered her voice and said that she had understood something since the big fight that day.
If she has feelings, it's good, but if she doesn't, it's okay. The most important thing is that the princess she is now has a much higher status than the princess she was at the beginning.
Normally, when meeting those noble ladies, they all learn to bow their heads. This is because now that Xiao Zhi is temporarily managing affairs for His Majesty, his status as a princess will naturally increase.
When she first married into Beiqi, anyone could step on her, but she could only stomp her feet in anger and couldn't do anything.
It's really different now. Only then do I realize that I and my husband are both in the same boat. We both prosper and suffer.
"You have indeed changed," Xiao Zhi suddenly smiled, "You said it would be nice if you had always had this temperament, but you used to be so indulgent and ignorant."
Chu Yi bit her lip hard, feeling a little aggrieved, but still suppressed the anger in her heart.
"You are indeed my wife, and you have indeed helped me a lot in the past. If you are peaceful in the future, I will naturally give you what you deserve."
Xiao Zhi suddenly reached out and hugged Chu Yi into his arms. It had to be said that this wife had always been of great use. As long as she changed her temper, she would be considered a good wife.
When she went back, Chu Yi was still sulking while sitting in the carriage. This feeling of suffocation was really uncomfortable and annoying.
But I have to say that what Yuexiang said is quite useful. Losing your temper in front of your husband will not do any good. Only by suppressing your temper can you have some hope.
"Is the princess still unhappy? Didn't I meet His Highness as I wished today?"
Yuexiang has been waiting outside the door, not knowing what happened inside.
But as long as no quarrels were heard, thank God. The princess finally controlled her temper.
This can be considered a good start. No matter what happens, we are still husband and wife. How can there be an overnight feud?
What's more, the princess really needs to control her temper. Look, isn't this a good start?
No one can be a favored princess all their life. After all, people have to grow up slowly and adapt to various identities. Now that I am a princess, I have to slowly take on the responsibilities that I should bear.
The Queen Mother had asked her to come with Chu Yi as a dowry, just so that she could have someone around to advise her not to be too unscrupulous. After all, the Queen Mother had been there and knew what was best for her.
"It's like what he said about my temper. I'm aloof and indulgent, but I have to endure my temper and talk to him word for word in a good voice. I feel really aggrieved!"
Chu Yi reluctantly pulled the handkerchief in her hand, really feeling that the days were getting more and more aggrieved!
Okay, now the two of them have interchanged. In the past, Xiao Zhi could only coax him, but now he has to be submissive. Is it possible that the situation has really changed?
