With such attentive service, Xie Ruzhuo simply closed his eyes and enjoyed the man's unique gentle service.
A man's tenderness surrounded her tightly, and before long, Xie Ruzhuo fell into a deep sleep.
When she was dazed, she felt a man's body coming close to her, and she was immediately hugged into a warm embrace. Without opening her eyes, Xie Ruzhuo found a comfortable position in his arms, and then completely fell into a good dream.
When she woke up early in the morning, the mattress next to her had already cooled down, but the smell that belonged to Xiao Junxi reminded her of how carefully she was being cared for.
Jiangzhu Qianbi heard the noise on the bed and was so busy that she came over to open the curtain and helped Xie Ruzhuo get out of bed.
After she finished washing, she saw that it was already bright outside.
Jiang Zhu knew how to look at her eyes. Seeing that she was in a daze, she immediately smiled and said, "It's still early for the prince to leave. I specifically asked the slaves not to call you." As she spoke, she brought the medicine bowl over and said, "Your Majesty. He also said that this medicine is for drinking before meals. If you don’t want to eat, just drink the medicine first and wait for the prince to come back and dine with you."
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo frowned subconsciously, and then said angrily, "Who wants to wait for him?"
But despite saying that, after swallowing the medicine while holding back the bitterness in his mouth, Xie Ruzhuo did not pass on the food. He sat on the soft couch and sorted things while waiting for Xiao Junxi to come back.
Tomorrow is Hong Rui's wedding day, and everyone in the house is busy with New Year celebrations, so Xie Ruzhuo is the only one left in the house.
She thought wildly for a while, then stared at the plum tree outside in a daze. Then she heard the door curtain being raised, and then a man strode in with a gust of cold air.
Seeing Xiao Junxi, Xie Ruzhuo immediately showed a happy smile, walked over and said with a smile, "Why are you back so early today?"
While he was talking, Xie Ruzhuo had already helped him untie the big hook outside, but Xiao Junxi was too busy to let her do it. She was so busy that she took the big hook in her hand and stretched out her other hand to carefully support her. He said jokingly, "I have a lovely wife guarding the door at home. How can my husband be willing to come back late?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a pink punch. Xie Ruzhuo glared at him angrily, but in the end he couldn't resist his tender and affectionate eyes. He turned to shout outside, "Jiangzhu, serve!"
Xiao Junxi only teased her briefly, then helped her sit down at the dining table seriously. After the maids filed in and laid out the porridge and side dishes, Xiao Junxi dismissed the servants and personally served the lotus seed and lily porridge for his beloved wife and placed it in front of her to accompany her to eat.
Xie Ruzhuo couldn't sit still while eating. Ever since she became pregnant, she couldn't see the purity in front of her even more. Seeing that Xiao Junxi was speechless, she took the initiative to raise the topic, "Is there anything interesting happening in the court today?"
The two of them were used to being casual these days, and Xiao Junxi would pick up irrelevant things and tell them to her. Sometimes when he was having fun, he would also use them to make her laugh.
Hearing this, Xiao Junxi smiled mysteriously and said, "There are no interesting things, but there is one thing that I hope you are interested in."
After hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo's eyes lit up and asked, "What's the matter?"
Xiao Junxi fed a shrimp dumpling into her mouth and said with a smile, "Today in the morning, Qin Sheng, the Minister of Zhongshu Province, visited someone. Who do you think it is?"
Xie Ruzhuo thought about it for a moment, then suddenly raised his heart and asked, "But Xiao Junhan?"
"As expected of my Zhuoer, you are really smart." Xiao Junxi did not forget to praise his beloved wife, and then continued, "Qin Sheng has always been unrecognizable, and his relationship with King Qi was not very good. Yesterday, for some unknown reason, Princess Qi returned directly to her parents' home after leaving the palace. Today, Qin Sheng openly said that the King of Qi had spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, and even covered up the crime of murdering the emperor's heir, and even harmed With such a behavior and a dead body to prove it, you are really not worthy of being a member of the royal family."
When she thought of Xiao Junhan's face turned the color of pig liver in the court, Xiao Junxi couldn't help laughing and said, "After that scolding, Xiao Junhan was so angry that he almost pointed at Qin Sheng's nose and scolded him on the spot, but these people All the ministers put together were not as sharp-tongued as Qin Sheng. Instead of allowing Xiao Junhan to explain clearly, they made the matter darker and darker. In the end, even my father made a decree to investigate the matter thoroughly. "
After Xiao Junxi finished speaking, she looked at Xie Ruzhuo with her peach blossom eyes, smiled slightly, and asked, "Should Zhuoer explain to my husband what happened in the palace yesterday?"
He had someone in the palace, and for Xie Ruzhuo's safety, she also had her own secret guards around her. After a brief question today, Xiao Junxi knew that this matter could not escape the excitement of his little wife.
Seeing that the little secret he had hidden was exposed, Xie Ruzhuo didn't take it at all. He just smiled in a flattering way and told everything truthfully, "I didn't do anything, I just made a trick with Qin Wanyi."
With that, she told what happened in the palace one by one, and finally said, "This Shen Jingci has always been so vicious. If she is allowed to continue like this, Qin Wanyi's life will be in vain! Besides -"
She is also a mother and knows how important children are to a mother!
She didn't say the last words, but when Xiao Junxi saw her face suddenly turned gloomy, she knew that she might have remembered the unbearable past again, so she immediately hugged Xie Ruzhuo in her arms and coaxed in a low voice, "Zhuo Don’t be afraid, son, I’m here in this life and I won’t let anyone hurt you.”
Xie Ruzhuo was moved in his heart, and the ice that had formed in his heart melted one by one. He pushed him away with a smile and said, "With you by my side, who can hurt me? But I'm surprised. I just asked people to bring the people of Prince Qi's house to the palace." The water is just a little mixed, how come it’s like yesterday?”
Hearing this, Xiao Junxi slightly scratched her nose and said with a smile, "Do you think that Shi Mo is a vegetarian? You, the master, have already given orders. She naturally knows what to do to make things worse. Expand. Anyway, the water in Prince Qi’s Mansion is getting better and better, and that girl has an idea, so she simply keeps doing nothing and makes the matter impossible to end. "
Only then did Xie Ruzhuo understand, and he admired Xiao Junxi's insight even more. With such a central subordinate there, many things can be done much more easily.
But this is fine, break and then stand. Only when Qin Wanyi completely gives up will she be asked to get out of the pit of fire.
As for Shen Jingci and Xiao Junhan, she has many ways to prevent these two from turning around!
Things in Prince Qi's Mansion were getting more and more intense. Originally, Xiao Junhan wanted to settle the matter, but under Shen Jingci's guidance, he came to the door in person with gifts and went to Qin's house to pick up his daughter-in-law.
Unexpectedly, before he even entered the gate, he was kicked out by a woman who was about fifty years old. She also cursed, "Our Qin family is too small to accommodate a giant Buddha like you, King Qi." ! You'd better take your things to please the concubine. The Qin family has always had a clean and upright family tradition, and they can't stand this nasty thing of doting on concubines and destroying wives! "
The Qin family has always been stubborn, but they get along very well with their neighbors and relatives. Even some high-minded students come here to worship in the Qin family's name, so the Qin family's connections are extremely wide.
Now, although the mother-in-law said only a few words, she made everything clear. The people who were watching the excitement had already listened to the voice. After understanding the gossip, they stared at Xiao Junhan with great disdain.
Xiao Junhan has been pampered since he was a child, has he ever received such a look? I couldn't bear it at the moment, so I secretly wrote down these faces, and at the same time said all the good things to say, "I am so busy on weekdays that I neglect the things in the backyard. I also asked my mother to let me go in and apologize to the princess. Once we talk about it, everything will be fine. If we don't talk about the two families, why bother getting angry with me and making it easier for outsiders?"
He has always been able to capture people's psychology, and if he said this at this time, it would only make people think that he was polite and would not say anything else. When the people around him heard this, they began to talk about it, wondering if there was really a misunderstanding here.
But who was that woman? She was the wet nurse who had watched Qin Wanyi grow up since she was a child. After hearing his words, not only did she not soften her expression, but she felt more and more that Xiao Junhan was doing the same thing in front of her face and behind her back. She immediately spat, "If it is really like what the prince said, then my young lady will not almost lose her life in the hands of your concubine! If the prince is really sincere, why does your concubine refuse to even meet you now? How about a meeting?"
Xiao Junhan's hands hidden in her sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, and the veins on her arms were exposed, but her face was still calm and calm, and she said, "I am not strict with you. This matter will definitely come up after the princess returns." She told me everything."
Seeing the lack of sincerity in what he said, the woman sneered and refused to communicate with him anymore. She only said, "Whenever the prince handles the concubine properly, come to the Qin family again."
After saying that, he closed the door, completely isolating Xiao Junhan from the outside.
On the second day, word of the good deeds of Prince Qi's Mansion spread throughout the streets and alleys. The evildoer became more and more violent, and even the story of King Qi abandoning his wife and son just to make his concubine laugh was revealed.
Later, when the incident became more and more outrageous, Shi Mo picked up some key points and said worriedly, "Nowadays, everyone in the capital says that Master, you are a vixen. The King of Qi who seduced has completely ignored the relationship between husband and wife. He also said that the fetus in the princess's belly was almost lost, and it was all your fault. What those people said was really outrageous, saying that your crime of murdering the emperor's heir was unforgivable, and they wanted to give you to—"
At this point, Shi Mo didn't dare to speak anymore. He covered his mouth and looked at her with some fear.
After what happened before, Shen Jingci now trusts Shi Mo more and more. After hearing this, she immediately grabbed her hand and asked, "How about it?"
Shi Mo gritted his teeth, then knelt down and said, "It's not that I didn't say anything, it's because those people spoke too much. Moreover, I inquired about the news from the prince's personal bodyguard, and said that the prince intends to take you to the Qin Mansion. Atone for your sins, and then hand you over to the Emperor!"
Hearing this, Shen Jingci smiled coldly and said sternly, "Let's see who dares!"
As she said that, she glanced at Shi Mo suspiciously and asked, "Where did you hear this? Could it be that someone with good intentions took advantage of you and deliberately used you to spread the news?"
