Ning Guiren rolled his eyes in disgust. He really felt that there was no point in crying. It was just the best way to make a man feel bad!
In fact, I also know that these things are indeed my fault, so it is inevitable to soften my attitude in order to gain the love of others.
"The noble man is really aggrieved today. When do you need to beg others so aggrievedly? I only hope that Mr. Xu can really help the noble man in the future!"
Jinxiu said dissatisfiedly, although Mr. Xu is good, he is not as good as before. He still treats their master a little more coldly. It would be great if he could be like before!
"I have been with Xu Yan for many years, so I naturally understand what kind of temper he is. When I insisted on running for the election, it really made him sad. Fortunately, he does not bear any grudge against me, so I feel at ease."
Ning Guiren breathed a sigh of relief and felt truly at ease after confirming the news. As long as Xu Yan didn't bear any grudge against her, everything would be easy to talk about.
The days in the palace passed slowly and quietly. In the first few days, Chu Xin still missed Chungui Ren and Ayun very much, but later she gradually got used to it.
In fact, it's the same no matter where you go. You're not used to it at first, but as long as you stay in one place for a long time, you'll slowly get used to it.
Just like when she was young, she was used to it in the Cold Palace, and later she got used to it when she went to Northern Qi, and then she slowly accepted it when she came to Nanliang. Isn't it the same thing?
"What are you thinking about? Do you want to go back?"
Yuan Heng's voice came from behind, and Chu Xin quickly turned around and helped him sit down. The palace was filled with charcoal fires and the room was as warm as spring, but he still heard his cough from time to time.
"Why does your Majesty feel sick again? He rarely coughed when he was in the palace, so why do he feel like he's coughing again when he comes here?"
Chu Xin sat opposite Yuan Heng and complained softly. It was precisely because the two were familiar with each other that some of his words were relatively bold.
"If Your Majesty continues like this, when can I go back? Do I have to go back to the palace to serve the pure noble? There are many things I want to say to her! It's all your Majesty's fault that I can't go back! "
Chu Xin raised her lips as she spoke, pretending to be dissatisfied.
"You seem to be very happy to be by the pure nobleman's side, and you smile a little more than before. It seems that my decision was right. Letting you stay by his side is indeed a good choice."
Yuan Heng looked at him and smiled slightly, "I remember when I saw you when I was young, you seemed far less cute and cute than you are now. It seems that a person's personality really changes with the environment around him."
Chu Xin remembers things from her childhood, but Yuan Heng also remembers things from her childhood, so her attitude towards her is always somewhat different.
"Yes, so the kind of person you get along with is really important. Since I stayed with Chunguiren, I have received a lot of love from her, and my heart has slowly warmed up. I guess the same is true for Your Majesty, right?"
Chu Xin always brings the topic to the noble lady. Even if she is not here and does not come to the palace with her, she does not want Yuan Heng to forget her.
I just want him to remember at all times that it was the pure nobleman who brought him so much love, whether it was the sugar pills he made or the heart of silently enduring those calculations and not wanting to bring things to light in front of Yuan Heng. Is it pure noble love?
"You are right, Chun Guiren is really different. I used to think that Ning Guiren was a gentle and sensible person, but now it seems that I have seen the wrong person."
Yuan Heng smiled slightly and said, in fact, there were not many concubines in the harem, in order to avoid these jealousy things from happening, but he did not expect that it seemed that he had misjudged the wrong person, which led to these things.
"It doesn't matter, who has never misjudged someone?"
Chu Xin smiled bitterly and said, "What's more, if you misjudged the person, you could just ignore him, but I misjudged the person and had to pay such a serious price. Unfair! It's really unfair!"
Chu Xin shook her head dissatisfied. In fact, she rarely thought of the past during this period. She felt that the past was like a dream, as if it had really passed.
Even now I can tell it like an outsider, like telling a story.
Yuan Heng was just about to say some more words to comfort him, but he felt his throat felt itchy and started coughing again.
Chu Xin quickly stood up and patted his back, again and again, gently. Doctor Song had ordered that if he coughed again, he only needed to pat his back gently.
The two of them were suddenly very close. Yuan Heng slowly stopped coughing. Chu Xin took out the handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped away the slight blood from the corner of his mouth.
"No wonder you are always worried about Your Majesty. It turns out that His Majesty's body is so delicate!"
Chu Xin smiled boldly and said that she was different from a pure noble person. A pure noble person would carefully worry about Yuan Heng's health and be very careful about what he said and did, for fear of worrying him.
But she is not afraid of anything, she is bolder in what she says and does, and she is even in the mood to joke even at this time.
Because the Yuan Heng she saw when she was a child looked so sickly, not to mention that this time she brought the most skilled doctor from the Song Dynasty, as well as various precious medicinal materials, so what could happen?
He wouldn't take care of Yuan Heng's body as carefully as a pure nobleman. Pure nobleman loves him, but he doesn't!
"How bold of you to speak in front of me!"
Yuan Heng could only smile helplessly, and then he could only gasp weakly, feeling that his throat was sore and itchy that he could not speak.
"I'd better help you go to bed to rest. If you can't sleep, I'll ask Dr. Song for a bowl of calming medicine. After drinking it, you can have a good sleep!"
Chu Xin held Yuan Heng's arm and slowly helped him to the bed step by step.
…
The winter in Northern Qi is extremely cold, at least that's what Xiao Zhi felt. On the way to visit the emperor's brother, he felt that his hands were getting colder and colder, and in the end it was so cold that he lost all consciousness.
When I entered, I felt a rush of warmth. The room was lit with fine charcoal fires and there was no smell of smoke. These were all ordered by him.
After entering, he asked everyone in the palace to go out, while he sat by the bed and covered the people on the bed with quilts.
Xiao Qi woke up in a daze. He had been ill for a long time. It seemed as if he was awake less and less every day. He spent most of the day in a coma.
"Brother, are you awake? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Seeing Xiao Qi open his eyes and wake up, Xiao Zhi quickly asked, now he is really like a good brother, serving his seriously ill brother.
"Did you get what you wanted when I was seriously ill?"
Xiao Qi opened his eyes drowsily, but said something very sober.
"What is the emperor talking about?"
Xiao Zhi was suddenly stunned. He didn't expect that a patient could say such a thing. Did he know anything else?
"Did you tamper with the bracelet that the concubine beside you gave to the queen? Did you also tamper with the decoction that I drank when I was seriously ill?
At first I couldn't understand that you were keeping me in the dark, but then I became seriously ill for longer and longer, and I slowly figured it out. I thought I was sincere to you as my younger brother, but I didn't expect that you really used me as a stepping stone. The rights I once had would soon become yours. "
Perhaps because of his serious illness and weakness, Xiao Qi would stop for a long time every time he said a word, but he still struggled to say what was in his heart. If he didn't say it, he might not be able to say it in the future.
The people of the Emperor's family are really cruel. He just doesn't have such a cruel heart, so he became the one being plotted by others!
"I knew this day would come, and I've been waiting for this day for a long time. It's good to say it out as soon as possible, so as not to keep feeling guilty in my heart."
Xiao Zhi suddenly smiled nonchalantly, and he didn't mind, so he sat directly beside the bed.
"I was sent to the Chu Kingdom as a hostage since I was a child. At that time, I knew that I was the one who could be easily abandoned. I am not my father's favorite prince. There are many princes in the harem, so who am I?
Even if I die in Chu State, my father will not react at all! So when my father passed away, I felt really painful, because he should have died long ago! "
Xiao Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "No one cared about me when I came back. At that time, only Brother Huang was very kind to me, and you were the only one who treated me like a younger brother.
I was very grateful to you at that time. You were the only person who helped me in times of need. I still remember this kindness to this day. "
"Even now, I have never regretted helping you at that time, because you are my brother. I know that my father owes you, so I want to make up for it, but your heart is really too cold, you Your anger was directed at me, and you took away my power."
Perhaps because of his serious illness, or perhaps because he had accepted it calmly, Xiao Qi looked very calm, as if he was talking about an irrelevant matter.
Even if he is about to lose his life, even if all his power is going to be taken away by another person, even if that person is the brother he once loved so much.
"Brother Huang, do you really not resent me at all?"
Xiao Qi looked at him in disbelief, "I said these words today and I was already prepared to be resented, but why don't you hate me at all?"
He is also a human being and has a heart. It is impossible for him to really not have any emotions at all.
These days, watching his brother who once loved him slowly lose his life, he will feel regretful, guilty, and feel like a heartless monster!
Whether it was Chu Xin who helped him so much in Chu Palace, or Xiao Qi who treated him like a younger brother after he came back, they all felt sorry for them!
He hurts everyone who loves him, he is a beast!
"I have never regretted anything I have done. My mother-in-law advised me many times to be wary of you, but at that time I never really took it to heart.
