The moment she saw that face, she remembered those nightmares from the past and every night she was awakened by nightmares. It was so scary, so scary!
"Princess, don't worry. That woman is wearing the clothes of a palace maid. She is probably just a slave in the palace. Besides, there are many people who look similar in the world, so there is no need to be afraid."
Yuexiang took a few deep breaths and tried her best to stabilize herself. It was okay for the princess to be afraid of these things when she was young. She couldn't be afraid. If she also panicked and became afraid, then the princess would have no backbone.
"Yes, you are right, I don't have to be afraid at all!"
Chu Yi let go of her hand, her face was covered with sweat, and she only slowly calmed down now.
"Who is she? She just came out of the study. Is it possible that His Highness also knows about her existence?"
Chu Yi walked a few steps and glanced towards the study. The palace maid had left just now, and the study door was still closed. It seemed that Xiao Zhi was not in the study at this moment.
"Princess, don't worry, I'll go ask you right away!"
Yuexiang glanced casually and saw several palace maids walking over to the pavilion, intending to ask them.
Xiao Zhi stood blankly at the corner and waited for a long time. He didn't know what he was afraid of and what he was looking forward to. He was looking forward to hearing the answer of denial. Did he feel that all this was just his imagination?
"princess…"
Yuexiang was hesitant when she came over. She didn't know what happened that made it difficult for her to talk about it.
"Hurry up and tell me what's going on!"
Chu Yi stabbed her nails hard into the palm of her hand, trying to focus her attention and stop thinking.
"I just asked the palace maids and they said that the maiden responsible for cleaning the study in the past few months is named Chuxin..."
After mentioning this name, Yuexiang did not dare to say any more, thinking that the princess would understand everything next.
Chu Yi didn't know how she got back on the carriage leaving the palace. She only knew that she felt chills all over after hearing the news.
Everyone was so happy when they entered the palace. Unexpectedly, in just a moment, the whole person fell from the clouds to the ground. Is this what it turned out to be like?
When I got off the carriage, I almost missed my footing without paying attention, but luckily Yuexiang held me firmly.
"Princess, be careful!"
Yuexiang's face was full of worry. Maybe she shouldn't have said so much to let the princess enter the palace. If she didn't enter the palace, would she not have seen that person, and wouldn't she have known these things?
After all, I have to know this after I come back from Dachu, but I know it now.
Chu Yi didn't say anything and forced herself to calm down, holding Yuexiang's hand back to her room.
"You mean her name is Chu Xin?"
Chu Yi sat for a long time and suddenly asked softly.
"yes."
Yuexiang nodded. She was very shocked when she learned the name. She didn't know that the faces were similar, and even the names were so similar.
"You asked the maids and they said that Chu Xin has been cleaning the study for almost two months. In other words, she has been with His Highness for almost two months?"
When Chu Yi said the last sentence, he gritted his teeth angrily, feeling that the long-buried resentment in his heart suddenly resurfaced.
That was something she had deliberately suppressed and didn't want to mention again, but now she couldn't bear it anymore.
"I asked why Your Highness hasn't come back for so long. It turns out that there is someone you like more in the palace. It's her and that bitch again. She has already died once. Do you want to die a second time?"
Chu Yi stared at her red eyes and spoke word by word. Even she couldn't imagine what she was like now. She should be like a madman, right?
I have cried, complained, and resented, but in the end I had no choice but to live a good life, and many times I restrained my temper.
Every time I see Xiao Zhi, I always think that if I can't quarrel, I must not quarrel. I can't always mention the past and treat it as the past.
Let them start over and be a loving and harmonious couple.
She originally thought that the good times had just begun, and that everything could start slowly again, but she didn't expect that she would be hit in the head again!
What happened to that bitch named Chu Xin!
"I asked the palace maid about it when I was in the palace. Chu Xin has been cleaning the study for more than two months. His Highness has never returned to the palace once in those two months. I think he is accompanied by Chu Xin."
Yuexiang couldn't bear to talk any more. She felt heartbroken when she saw Chu Yi like this. She didn't expect that things would turn out like this.
Even if she is just an ordinary beautiful palace maid, maybe the princess will not be so angry. What is really angry is because the palace maid looks so much like the person before, even the names are so similar!
"Original intention?"
Chu Yi repeated these two words. When he said these two words, what came to his mind was another person, a person who should have been dead long ago!
She had nightmares for many days because of this person, and would wake up from nightmares in the middle of the night every day. Later, she finally stopped having nightmares, but this person appeared in front of her again.
Why? Why?
Chu Yi suddenly felt that she had no strength all over her body, and she slumped on the ground unwilling to get up. Now she no longer cared about her status or dignity, and felt that everything she insisted on had become a joke again.
So every time he restrained his temper in front of Xiao Zhi, what was Xiao Zhi thinking about?
Do you want to deal with yourself casually and face another woman? What will it be like in front of that woman? Will you still be so impatient and indifferent?
"That person's name also looks so similar to hers. It turns out that during the period when he didn't come back, the original intention was to stay with him. But he didn't want to come back. It turned out that there was already someone else around him. The woman is still the same person!”
Chu Yi sat paralyzed on the ground, mumbling incoherently. She had tried her best to restrain herself in the palace just now.
She suddenly didn't dare to face it, didn't dare to make things bigger, let alone face the original intention that was so similar to that person.
She felt that her courage suddenly became smaller and smaller. People said that she was arrogant and proud, but that was a long time ago. Ever since she married and became a princess, her whole temperament has slowly been tempered. draw.
In the past, she would have ignored everything and went directly to Xiao Zhi to deal with it, but now she came back in despair, not even daring to let Xiao Zhi know that she had been to the palace.
"princess."
Yuexiang knelt on the ground and tried to help Chu Yi up, but was pushed away. She really felt guilty and did not expect that there would be such a similar person.
And His Highness actually kept this person by his side for so long, obviously he liked him very much.
Thinking about it, His Highness liked her very much when that person was around. Now that there is someone more similar, he naturally likes her even more. No wonder he is unwilling to come back. No wonder he is willing to stay in the palace for so long.
She also suddenly felt that the words she used to persuade the princess had become so ridiculous that even she could not accept it at the moment, let alone the princess.
It's all so incredible.
"I don't know why there are such similar people, even their names are so similar. No wonder His Majesty keeps her by his side..."
Yuexiang murmured, but before she could finish her words, she suddenly received a heavy slap on her face, and blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.
"you shut up!"
Chu Yi stared with red eyes, and her whole body was trembling. Her tolerance these days had become a joke, and she felt that her life had become so ridiculous.
She used to be a high-ranking princess, so what if they said she was spoiled, willful, arrogant and domineering? That's just the way she is!
But now the whole person's temper has slowly been tempered. The temperament that used to not be wronged has changed. When he came back dejected, he already felt regret in his heart.
I regret why I took that gamble in the first place.
"It's my fault, it's all my fault. Princess, hit me, hit me hard, hit me as long as it can make you feel better!"
Yuexiang ignored the pain on her face and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed in apology.
During this time, she had always advised the princess to be patient and not to argue with His Highness too much. However, she did not expect that the Princess had indeed endured it and her temper had indeed improved, but another woman appeared next to His Highness.
This woman looked too similar to the person she once was, and the princess would never tolerate her.
Chu Yi ignored it and just sat quietly on the ground. She didn't know what she was thinking. Was she going to rush into the palace in anger and execute the person named Chu Xin?
No, she can't do it anymore. Xiao Zhi will definitely protect her. If there is a quarrel, she won't get anything. Now her status has undergone tremendous changes, and she has to swallow it.
She suddenly felt really tired, and the joy she had had so hard these days disappeared in an instant.
I don’t know how I should go back to Dachu, and I don’t know how I will face my mother and brother after I go back. Do I have to say that my life here is not good? Do I have to tell them all these things?
No, of course not!
She must pay the price she deserves for her choices!
"Help me up. Just pretend that what happened today never happened, and don't say that I entered the palace today. Since His Highness doesn't know, it's best."
Yuexiang hurriedly helped Chu Yi up, but at the same time she felt really distressed. Why did the princess who was once so proud become so swallowed up?
"Then I will wait for the day when His Highness will bring her to me completely. I am also curious about what kind of name I want to give that woman? Do I really like the original intention, or am I still obsessed with the person I used to be!"
Chu Yi stood up, brushed the messy hair behind her ears, and suddenly smiled.
However, in just a moment, he suddenly figured out that the palace maid was nothing at all. It was just because her appearance and name were similar to that of the previous person, so she was favored by her.
But the person His Highness really likes is dead. He has been dead for a long time. Can he really be alive?
What is there to fear about a dead man?
In this case, she was waiting for the day when His Highness would bring his original intention to her, and see how far he could love Wujiwu!
Anyway, things are already like this, so what else can be considered a blow? The person I cared about most in the past is dead, and now this one is just a similar substitute, unable to cause any trouble.
She is just a humble palace maid, not worth mentioning at all!
