Chapter 34: The Man Behind the Scenes

Zhou Mei only reacted from this bad news at this time, she hurriedly knelt over, grabbed the corner of the emperor's robe, and cried with tears on her face, "Father, please, I know it's wrong, I won't dare to do it in the future, father, you spare me......" Seeing that the emperor turned her back and was unmoved, she even begged Zhou Ying in despair, "Seventh sister, I was wrong, you help me, please father and emperor......"

The emperor's meaning was already obvious, of course Qiao Rong couldn't let Zhou Mei continue to make trouble, so he called two grandmothers and took Zhou Mei away.

Without Zhou Mei's crying, the room was uncomfortably quiet.

The emperor was the first to get up, "You take good care of your illness, and remember to drink the medicine later." Since it's a cold wind, don't move, you can raise it in Yuhua Pavilion first, and wait for the rest. With that, the emperor left in a hurry.

As soon as the emperor and Xu Guifei left, the rest were all princes and princesses, and they were all the same age, so the atmosphere should be more relaxed, but instead of getting better, the atmosphere was more embarrassing. Zhou Ying single-handedly defeated the princess who was being favored, and even drove her out of the palace in one fell swoop. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the attitude of everyone who respectfully distances themselves.

But after a while, everyone found their own excuses and left, leaving only one Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao treated Zhou Ying as usual, eating tea leisurely, "That palace maid, the one you said you were going to confront in person, is there really such a person?" ”

"Yes, it's still her hand that serves me to change my clothes." Zhou Ying returned to the Divine Dao.

"Did she really see you and Zhou Mei talking on deck?" Zhou Yao was curious.

"Not really." Zhou Ying shook her head.

"You're not a little daring." Zhou Yao raised her eyebrows, looked at Zhou Ying up and down, and said with a smile, "That's it, you still dare to let Father-in-law Qiao confront her?" Zhou Mei Danfan calms down, you will lose your wife and lose your soldiers. ”

"But in fact, she didn't hold her breath." Zhou Ying said quietly, "I won the bet." ”

Having said that, Zhou Ying's tone was not happy.

Zhou Yao saw that Zhou Yingqing was a little depressed, put down the teacup, and sat on the edge of her bed, "You won't question your decision because of their mediocre and foolish opinions, right?" Zhou Mei fell into this fate, she was to blame, but if you are weaker and stupider, today you will not only suffer a crime in vain, but also watch her at ease, and maybe be ridiculed for not being able to do anything. ”

Hearing this, Zhou Ying was a little moved, and said with a smile: "How can I regret it, it's just that I have other doubts in my heart." ”

Zhou Yao breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "One person is short and two people are long, you might as well say it, and I will help you palm your eyes." ”

Looking at the olive branch handed over by Zhou Yao, Zhou Ying was a little hesitant to cross the line.

In fact, the life of classmates in the past six months has made Zhou Ying feel good about Zhou Yao. Zhou Yao is beautiful and talented, although he is a little upright and cold, but he neither deceives others, nor gangs up, looking at the dustless under his eyes, but he has his own set of survival wisdom.

Zhou Yao obviously doesn't hate her either, and occasionally borrows a pen and chats, but it has a bit of a gentleman's friendship that is as light as water.

Zhou Ying thought that if she was close, she would be embarrassed, and if she was far away, she would be resentful, but this distance was just right.

On the other hand, it is also a lesson from Zhou Huan's past, which makes Zhou Ying a little worried. Zhou Yao has only known each other for half a year, who knows whether this beauty is good or evil under the skin and bones.

Zhou Ying hesitated for a moment, and then thought about it, after a Zhou Huan, she didn't want to make friends again? It's too choking to eat.

If you don't even have one or two acquaintances, it would be too pitiful. It is true that she should learn a lesson, but it doesn't mean that she has to bow and snake shadows, others hand over kindness, just treat others as a traitor in their stomachs, as long as she keeps her heart, open her eyes and look slowly.

In fact, there is no need to hide what Zhou Ying is embarrassed about, and it should be asked in private, since Zhou Yao is willing to reach out to help, he might as well try. She made up her mind and said: "I felt that something was wrong before, but I was interrupted by the fifth sister, and now that the matter is resolved, I only remembered this suspicion." ”

Zhou Yao made a gesture of please, "I would like to hear about it." ”

Zhou Ying sorted out her thoughts and said slowly: "The fifth sister is jealous, but she is not a little forgetful, if no one sets up a stage to sing, she will be deflated after a while, divert her attention, and toss others." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Yao couldn't help laughing, "This is her rare strength." ”

Zhou Ying also smiled, and said: "So when I went up to the third floor, changed my clothes, cleaned my hands, turned around inside and out, found a place with an excellent view, and after enjoying the lake and mountains for a while, I was surprised to see the fifth sister rushing up angrily and looking for trouble with me." ”

"With her temperament, it's really a little strange." Zhou Yao frowned.

"I thought, did something happen at the banquet later that made her rekindle me again?" Zhou Ying asked.

"After you went upstairs, everyone praised your song again, and then they started playing drumming and passing flowers again." Zhou Yao recalled this, her eyes lit up, "Yes, this scene is Zhou Mei, she stood up in a daze, as if she was so nervous, she couldn't say a word, and in the end, although she was confused, she lost face in the end and immediately left." Is she angry with you because of this? ”

Zhou Ying thought about it carefully, shook her head and said, "Maybe there is some impact, but it won't be the main reason." To put it mildly, she has always bullied the soft and afraid of the hard, even if she loses face, she will only pick up soft persimmons and pinch them. She can't afford to provoke others on the scene, but the sixth sister lives in the same house with her when she is young, which she has always been used to bullying. It doesn't make sense that you don't want a ready-made punching bag, and you can find an irrelevant person's stubble all the way away. ”

When it came to Zhou Huan, Zhou Ying was a little suspicious.

Most of these people at this banquet have a personal relationship with Zhou Ying, and they have no grudges or grudges, who will not get along with her? Zhou Mei also had some holidays with her. Zhou Mei was down, before she went upstairs, Zhou Huan had just been embarrassed by her, and she completely covered the limelight.

However, Zhou Huan was forbearing, not only did he not have a seizure, but he also talked and laughed like ordinary people. Of course, this does not mean that Zhou Huan has really turned the page.

Zhou Ying's heart moved, and asked, "After I left, who spoke to the fifth sister in private?" ”

Zhou Yao recalled carefully, "After you left, we moved your chair, and I was next to Zhou Mei." At that time, Zhou Mei was Zhou Huan at the top, and I was at the bottom. I don't like to hear her complain, but she and Zhou Huan have a lot of conversation, and the two of them don't stop talking when they start to pass the flowers. ”

Seeing that Zhou Ying's expression was wrong, Zhou Yao's eyes widened, "You don't mean it, it's Zhou Huan......"
