Hearing Xie Ruzhuo's question, Jiang Zhu whispered, "In the past, perhaps Concubine Jing would not have paid much attention to Concubine Lan, but now that Concubine Lan is trying to steal her limelight, Concubine Jing must be trying to scare the monkeys." .”
But he didn't expect that he would be beaten into pieces. Not only did he not punish Mr. Lan, he even got involved with his own child!
As for whether Cao Guiren was innocent or not, he has passed away, but it is unclear.
Xie Ruzhuo sighed and said, "I want to know the truth, but it's better not to know the truth. Forget it, let's go back."
If he stayed outside for a long time, when Xiao Junxi looked for her, she would not be found.
As soon as Xie Ruzhuo walked to the princess palace, he saw Xiao Junxi strolling towards her.
"Why are you here, are you cold?" Xiao Junxi walked over quickly, naturally held her hand, and carefully warmed it for her.
Xie Ruzhuo felt warm in his heart and said, "Have you finished your work?"
She had some sighs at first, but when she saw Xiao Junxi, all her sighs were thrown out of her mind, and only this man was left in front of her eyes and in her heart.
Seeing her eyes lingering on her, Xiao Junxi felt extremely satisfied. While pulling her toward the palace gate, she said softly, "It's not a big deal, just some trivial matters. But my father and the emperor are old. I had an illness attack and had some headaches, so I delayed it for a longer time.”
Having said this, he asked thoughtfully, "Just now, after my father left and came back, he looked a little strange, but did something happen in the harem?"
Xie Ruzhuo didn't hide anything and told the story exactly as it was. Xiao Junxi's eyes suddenly became solemn.
"This style of doing things is not like my father's. Why is he so sloppy today?"
Xie Ruzhuo didn't think too deeply, he just said, "Maybe Cao Guiren has touched the emperor's evil side. I was not there at the time, and I don't know exactly what happened."
There were some things she didn't say. Xie Rulan's presence in the palace now was a risk factor. It was better to tell her grandfather about this as soon as possible. Today, Xie Rulan can pull Cao Guiren to support him, but he may not be able to step on other people's shoulders to get the position in the future.
It's fine that she doesn't touch the interests of some people, but once she does, it will affect others sooner or later.
Seeing that Xie Ruzhuo looked a little heavy, Xiao Junxi sighed and said, "Forget it, let's not talk about these things. Wen Ruyu will be back tomorrow, but do you want him to come to your home to diagnose your pulse? You master and apprentice can catch up on old times." "
Hearing this, Xie Ruzhuo's face suddenly fell down and he said, "I don't want to reminisce with that old goblin."
When she asked the man to take her pulse before, he prescribed a lot of bitter medicine for her to take. This time, she was not sure what he was causing.
but-
"Why did he come back so soon?"
He originally thought that he would stay there for a while. After all, he would have to visit Sun Wuji's grave during the Qingming Festival.
Xiao Junxi didn't tell the inside story, she just said, "Probably she doesn't want to stay there."
Even though Sun Wuji was doing it for his own good, after all, it contained too many past events that he didn't want to recall. Especially when taking Feng Ruhong with her, Wen Ruyu was not willing to stay there any longer.
For some things, it is best if they pass away with the wind, and recalling them again will only increase sadness and worry.
Xie Ruzhuo nodded and let him help him get into the carriage.
As soon as she entered, she was surrounded by warmth. Xiao Junxi held her in his arms. Seeing Xie Ruzhuo closing her eyes, she just thought she was sleepy and comforted her softly, "If she is sleepy, just sleep. I'll wait until I get home." Call you."
Xie Ruzhuo responded and really closed his eyes.
Her mind was surrounded by complicated things, and she couldn't help but think wildly. It's just that the breath in Xiao Junxi's arms was so reassuring that she just thought about it for a while and fell asleep unconsciously.
When he woke up again, it was almost dusk outside. Xie Ruzhuo didn't know where he was for a moment. He looked around vaguely and then realized that this was the inner room of the study.
There was the sound of turning pages outside, mixed with the sound of a man's steady breathing. Xie Ruzhuo lay on the bed and listened for a while, then got up and walked out.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xiao Junxi looked towards her and suddenly smiled, "Zhuo'er is awake? Are you hungry?"
Xie Ruzhuo nodded obediently. She slept until dusk, so she wasn't hungry.
Seeing her swallowing unconsciously, Xiao Junxi smiled slightly, hugged her to the table, and ordered the food to be passed outside.
Not long after, servants filed in, holding a variety of meals and setting a table full of them.
Xiao Junxi served her porridge with her own hands and placed it in front of her. She also picked up a few of her favorite dishes and put them on the small plate in front of her.
Xie Ruzhuo was already hungry, but when he was stimulated by the aroma, he unknowingly felt his stomach full.
After the meal, she held her belly and smiled shyly, "Well, I ate too much."
Seeing her like this, Xiao Junxi couldn't help it anymore and burst into laughter.
Well, his wife seems to be very cute in every aspect.
There have been endless rumors in the capital about King Qi and Princess Dashi. On February 16th, Emperor Jing issued an imperial edict.
Shen Jingci was combing her hair when she heard the news. After hearing this, she was so angry that she smashed everything in the house, and then shouted in hatred, "Murong Wan!"
She never expected that the rumors in the capital had spread to such an extent, but Emperor Jing could actually issue an imperial edict to grant marriage to Murong Wan and Xiao Junhan!
When Xiao Junhan walked in, he happened to see the fierce expression on Shen Jingci's face. He frowned, then relaxed, turning a blind eye to the broken pieces of porcelain on the ground, and said, "Who has provoked Ci'er to lose such a temper so early in the morning?"
Shen Jingci glanced at him angrily, and then said in a strong voice, "Congratulations to the prince on your family. It seems that the time for me to invite myself to the palace is not far away!"
Hearing this, Xiao Junhan's expression turned cold, and the gentleness on his face faded a lot. He frowned and said, "Ci'er, I thought you were a sensible person, but I didn't expect that you are also ungrateful! It's too embarrassing for me. The king is disappointed!”
As soon as he said these words, Shen Jingci broke into a cold sweat and regained her rationality. As soon as her mind turned around, tears fell from her eyes, and she said in a trembling voice, "Isn't it true? The prince rarely comes to my house these days. They say that when a new person comes, the old person will be forgotten, and I, the old person, are afraid Yes, but also—"
When she spoke, she deliberately lowered her head. When Xiao Junhan looked around, he could just see her white neck and faintly exposed breasts.
Coupled with Shen Jingci's deliberately soft voice, Xiao Junhan's mind was even more disturbed.
As soon as his affectionate mood came up, his expression softened a lot, and he stepped forward and said, "What are you talking about Ci'er? How can you be my old man? You are my think tank, my king's Where's your sweetheart? Stop crying, look at how pitiful he is."
Seeing this, Shen Jingci immediately looked surprised and said, "Is what the prince said true?"
She looked like a little pet who was afraid of being abandoned. Seeing this, Xiao Junhan was extremely satisfied, and her male desire was aroused. She comforted him, "Don't worry, don't you understand this king? Keep your word." Jiuding.”
"Okay." Shen Jingci smiled seductively and asked as if unintentionally, "Yes, Your Majesty, why did the Dashi Kingdom suddenly submit a letter to propose to the princess?"
Xiao Junhan pondered for a while, and finally told the whole story, "Actually, Murong Wan is not very attractive to me. We are just a deal. She is willing to do her best to help me ascend the throne, and I The king will give her the status of a mother in the world."
After hearing this, Shen Jingci's heart tightened and she asked nervously, "Then, is what she said reliable?"
Xiao Junhan smiled coldly and said, "Don't worry, I have many ways to control her." As he said, he remembered what Shen Jingci had done before, and if he had any advice, he said, "It's just a queen, I will be able to control her in the future." It’s affordable. It doesn’t matter if she sits in that position for the rest of her life, as long as she doesn’t give birth to any children, that’s enough.”
At this point, Xiao Junhan reached out to her belly again, touched it carefully, and said softly, "Ci'er, please give birth to a son for me quickly. I can't wait any longer."
These words were actually meant to calm Shen Jingci's mind.
Xiao Junhan was telling her in disguise that even if he was forced to give the post to someone else, the position of the prince in the future would only belong to Shen Jingci's son.
Unfortunately, Shen Jingci was destined not to take this reassurance.
She was a concubine when she entered the palace, and when Xiao Junhan ascends the throne in the future, it will be her only chance to make a comeback. If Murong Wan takes over, she will never be able to get ahead again!
The most important thing is that Shen Jingci has become enemies with Murong Wan. Murong Wan sees her as a thorn in his flesh, and so does she.
Therefore, the scene Xiao Junhan hopes will never happen, because she and Murong Wan will only fight to the death!
The next day, Shen Jingci went to the palace.
She didn't want to see Concubine Ye, but she had to pay her respects. After all, it is the imperial concubine who has the most say in the palace right now.
When he heard the reply, Xie Ruzhuo was waiting for Concubine Ye to eat.
A few days ago, Emperor Jing reprimanded Concubine Ye Guiren because of Cao Guiren's affairs. She had been in a bad mood for the past two days, so Xiao Junxi asked Xie Ruzhuo to come to the palace from time to time to keep her company, which was better than having her wandering around in the palace.
Seeing Concubine Ye's face darken, Xie Ruzhuo couldn't help but chuckle and said, "If the concubine doesn't want to see her, just tell her to go out and just say no."
Hearing this, Concubine Ye immediately looked back at her with a smile and said, "How can it be so easy? Well, since she is here, please come in. She is King Qi's concubine after all, and now she is pregnant, so I am too Can’t be too mean to her.”
Xie Ruzhuo said "yes" and saw that someone from the palace had already gone out to greet Shen Jingci.
Not long after, Shen Jingci was seen walking in following the steps of the palace servants. With a delicate and delicate look, she saluted and said, "My daughter-in-law, I wish my mother and concubine my regards."
Concubine Ye nodded and said, "Get up." Although there was a smile on her face, her words were cold and indifferent.
Shen Jingci naturally felt it. She could only pretend not to know and said with a forced smile, "How have you been these past two days, concubine? My daughter-in-law looks much better at you than the past two days."
