Chapter 31: Du Meiren [Second Watch]
What Cai Wei is referring to is, of course, Nangong Yi's marriage to Li Ruizhu, which has now made a lot of noise in the capital, and almost all the royal relatives and nobles know about it, how can Helana not know?
Sure enough, when Helana heard this, as if she had been hit by a critical point, her face suddenly darkened, and she reprimanded angrily: "Nonsense, those are just rumors, if it is true, the emperor would have decreed marriage a long time ago, can you wait until now?" In my opinion, it must be you, a slut, who sees that he has no chance of marrying the King of Qin, so he made up such a lie to hit me! ”
Cai Wei sneered: "The so-called no wind and no waves, if there is no wind and grass, how can there be no wind?" You must have heard these rumors a long time ago, did I make them up, you know it, why hide your ears and deceive yourself? ”
Cai Wei's merciless ridicule made Helana's expression crack instantly, although she had heard the rumors that King Qin was going to marry Li Ruizhu, but she never believed it, or rather, she didn't want to believe it at all.
King Qin is hers, she has loved him bitterly for five years, loving him has become her habit or obsession, she can't accept the fact that he wants to marry someone else, no matter who it is, don't want to take him away from her, no matter who it is, but whoever dares to covet the position of Princess Qin, she will never show mercy!
"Really? What about the fake? No matter who it is, as long as they dare to covet my things, this princess will never show mercy! ”
Helana said with a distorted face, a look of tearing eyes.
Looking at her distorted face, Cai Wei sneered in her heart, Helana is just a straw bag with a strong outside and a strong inside, she looks aggressive, she thinks how powerful she is, but it turns out that she is so vulnerable, three or two sentences can make her forget her original purpose, she is simply not worthy of being her opponent!
"The princess is right, what belongs to you should be firmly watched, and those villains who beat their own ideas should be cleaned up fiercely, so as not to make them delusional!"
Cai Wei said meaningfully, walked briskly around Helana, and left.
At this time, Helana, where did she remember to laugh at Cai Wei, and her whole face was gloomy, immersed in hatred for Li Ruizhu......
Getting rid of Helana, Cai Wei walked behind the eunuchs easily, thinking that her ears could be cleaned, but when she was about to walk to Qingfangyuan, a sharp scolding suddenly came from behind her.
"Stop!"
The voice was sharp and piercing, with a deep hatred.
What's more, another one is looking for fault, Cai Wei rolled her eyes, turned around helplessly, and looked at Princess Chaoyang who was approaching step by step.
"Heh, congratulations, eldest princess, you must be very proud to be named Princess Anle and be appointed to Prince Saknu, huh?"
Princess Chaoyang walked in front of Cai Wei with a hug, raised her chin unruly, and looked at her through gritted teeth.
To be honest, Princess Anle's appearance is really good, and she can even compete with Cai Wei, but her arrogant eyes and arrogant look have ruined her original beauty, making her look unruly, barbaric and unreasonable, without a bit of feminine flavor!
Cai Wei glanced at the proud princess and said impatiently: "Princess Chaoyang, you didn't come here just to say these boring things to me, right?" ”
"Bold, when you see Princess Chaoyang, you dare not kneel, and dare to call yourself me, you really treat yourself as a princess!"
Princess Chaoyang's grandmother saw Cai Wei calmly looking directly at the master, and she was not furious, standing behind the master, and the fox and the tiger were shouting.
Cai Wei sneered: "I don't treat myself as a princess, what do I do with myself?" Don't you treat yourself like a dog slave like you? Could it be that the princess who was decreed by the emperor himself is fake? ”
Chaoyang snorted and said disdainfully, "Princess, are you also worthy?" You are just the one chosen by my queen mother to marry me, what kind of princess are you? Even if you are lucky enough to marry Prince Saknu, he will not really love you, because the person he wants to marry is me, and you are just an impostor who seduces men to the top! ”
Although Chaoyang has been scolding her, he didn't hit her with Sacknu's evil deeds like Helana, but spoke with a thick jealous tone, which made Cai Wei unconsciously surprised!
Why is she like this? Could it be that she, like Du Wanyue, was fascinated by Saknu's masculine appearance?
It's just that the girl's taste is too heavy! Hadn't she heard those terrible rumors about Saknu? Or did she think she could change him? Hey, girls in love are really low IQs!
At her insult, Cai Wei laughed indifferently twice, and said: "It seems that the princess is very dissatisfied with my substitution for marriage, it just so happens that I don't want to marry, so it's better to marry you instead, anyway, it was you who he originally wanted to marry!" ”
"You ......"
Princess Chaoyang's heart was peeped through, her face turned red, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Mu Caiwei, you don't pretend in front of me, if you have no intention of Prince Saknu, why do you seduce him everywhere, seduce people and bait, pretend to be a chaste martyr, and don't want to marry." Phew! That is, my brother Yi is stupid, he was blinded by a cheap woman like you, and for you, he went to such a dangerous place stupidly, you are good, stay at home and seduce wild men everywhere, it is really cheap! ”
Cai Wei said with a smile: "Princess, I heard that Saknu was determined not to marry you at first, do you know why he changed his mind later and wanted to marry me?" ”
Hearing Cai Wei mention this, Chaoyang couldn't help but be jealous, these days, she is uncomfortable about this!
Originally, Prince Saknu insisted on marrying her, and he had the intention of not returning to China if he couldn't marry her, which greatly satisfied her girl's vanity, and she was also excited and complacent for a long time.
She was very unwilling to be married as a substitute, and she resented her brother for being troubled, so she shouldn't have stopped her good marriage; He also complained that Saknu was not firm enough, if he insisted on marrying her, his father might not agree for the sake of the country!
But what she resents the most is Cai Wei.
If she hadn't danced the song "Flying Dance" on the day of the Shangsi Festival, how could Saknu fall in love with her? How could he abandon her, the real princess, and turn to her impostor? Speaking of which, didn't she seduce Saknu by using foxes?
Just because she taught her a lesson in the Moon Picking Pavilion that day, this slut took revenge on her, not only instigated Brother Yi to beat her in public, but also seduced her intended person, causing her not only to lose face, but also to lose her soul for so long, this slut who beat the spine is really unforgivable, she will clean her up today!
"Heh, why?"
Chaoyang sneered disdainfully, and said: "It's not because you shamelessly seduced him, learn Kabuki to dance to please him, this kind of lowly style of a small family, but this princess can't learn it!" ”
"Wrong!"
Cai Wei said solemnly, "Saknu said that the reason why he chose me over you is because—"
"Why?"
Princess Chaoyang looked at Cai Wei nervously, she also wanted to know why Saknu gave up her noble and chose her as an impostor, should it be just for her to look more beautiful than her, in terms of appearance, although she is not as good as this impostor, she is definitely a rare beauty, so she will not be disgusted by him!
"Because—"
Cai Weiwan smiled, looked at Princess Chaoyang's eyes full of nervousness, and said four words slowly: "I think you have a bad mouth!" ”
"What?"
Chaoyang subconsciously covered his mouth, then reacted, and said angrily: "Slut, you dare to insult me, you are so bold!" ”
After speaking, he glanced at his hand and fanned it.
Cai Wei's eyes lit up, and she raised her hand to accurately clamp Chaoyang's arm.
"Princess, do you want to fight?"
"Slut, you let me go-"
Chaoyang struggled as if he was furious, and shouted: "Mu Caiwei, you slut, you are so bold, you dare to offend this princess, see that I won't pick your skin later!" ”
A group of subordinates saw that Princess Chaoyang was restrained by Cai Wei, and they were all busy and came to help.
It's just that Cai Wei's identity is not what it used to be, not only the princess Anle who was personally crowned by the emperor, but also the eldest prince and concubine of Liaodan Kingdom, so the subordinates didn't dare to be too offended, they only dared to pull gently, but they didn't dare to really beat her.
"Are you all dead, what are you being polite to her? Don't beat me to death yet! ”
Cai Wei shook her arm and shouted angrily, but her arm was clamped by Cai Wei, and she couldn't shake it off.
Cai Wei said coldly: "Heh! Don't waste your efforts, these subordinates of yours are not enough for me to fight with one hand, I advise you, it's best not to provoke me again, this time, I look at his face, don't care about you in general, if there is a next time, you weigh it for me! ”
After speaking, he shook his hand and threw Princess Chaoyang out, Chaoyang was shaking his arms violently, trying to get rid of her clamps, but he was thrown by her coldly, and he couldn't help but stumble, and fell to the ground with a 'poof', and fell very badly!
"Oh, princess, how are you?"
The subordinates led by Princess Chaoyang's grandmother all gathered over and supported her with all hands and feet.
Cai Wei clapped her hands and said coldly: "She's fine, it's just that the skin is a little tight, just drop it loose and send it to Fan." ”
After speaking, he glanced at the eunuch who led the way, and said indifferently: "Let's go, Du Meiren should be in a hurry later!" ”
The eunuchs and palace maids who led the way for Cai Wei saw Cai Wei beating Princess Chaoyang, they all turned white with fright, lowered their eyes, and walked away quickly.
Cai Wei swaggered past Princess Chaoyang, didn't even look at her, and almost stepped on her.
"Damn, this slut!"
Chaoyang saw that Cai Wei was arrogant so much, he was so angry that his eyes were red.
Mama Granny followed the anger on her chest and comforted: "Princess, don't be angry, it's not worth being angry for such a slut, beware of your body.... ”
Chaoyang pushed the flattering grandmother, and gritted his teeth and said: "I have been slapped in the face, how can I not be angry?" I don't want to be angry, unless I think of a way to clean up that slut, otherwise, get out of the way for me, and don't be courteous in front of this princess. ”
Mama Nan was scolded by the master, knowing that the master was really angry, she hurriedly licked her old face and whispered: "Don't worry, princess, anyway, she lives in the palace now, we want to clean her up, there is a chance!" ”
When Chaoyang heard this, the anger in his heart disappeared, and he said coldly: "Mama Wu, listen, no matter what method is used, this princess must make her unable to survive and die!" ”
Mama Wu lowered her eyebrows and said, "Yes, don't worry, the princess, the old slave must find a way to be angry for the princess, and the princess's wish will come true!" ”
After getting Mama Wu's assurance, Princess Chaoyang's anger gradually subsided a little, she glanced at Cai Wei's back fiercely, and sneered: "Slut, just rely on you, and you also want to marry Liaodan to be a princess?" What a toad wants to eat swan meat! ”
……
Qingfang Garden, is a palace located in the northwest corner of the palace, the location is deserted, few people come and go, because of disrepair, the palace has been dilapidated.
Cai Wei followed a few eunuchs and palace maids all the way to Qingfang Garden, and as soon as she entered the door, she felt a depression.
Outside the door, the vermilion lacquer gate has been mottled, and the green bamboo and flowers in the courtyard have grown crooked and slanted because no one has taken care of them, and they are not very lush, which is very compatible with the dilapidated palace!
After Cai Wei entered Qingfang Garden, she saw the Du Mei from the Anguo Mansion very much.
Du Meiren is in her early thirties, her appearance is delicate, she is dressed plainly, she looks calm and long-term, and her aura is full of flowers and flowers of the ladies in the Anguo Mansion, if it weren't for the fact that she has a face that is somewhat similar to the old lady, Cai Wei can't believe that she came out of the Anguo Mansion.
"Comfort to ...... Auntie, please be greeting! ”
Cai Wei hesitated, but decided to call her aunt, although Du Meiren is her nominal adoptive mother, but casually call someone else's mother, Cai Wei always has a strange feeling, besides, this adoptive mother was not voluntarily recognized by her.
When Du Meiren heard Cai Wei's title, she smiled indifferently and didn't make much fuss about this title.
"Get up quickly, don't be polite, come to my aunt's place, and let my aunt take a good look at you!"
Du Meiren grabbed Cai Wei, took her hand, took her to her side and sat down, looked at her for a while, and said with a smile: "My nephew's daughter looks really good, it's even more beautiful than your mother back then!" ”
Cai Wei said with a smile: "My aunt has won the award, I heard my mother say that my aunt was also a beauty who captivated the country and the city back then, otherwise, she would not have been elected to the palace." ”
When Du Meiren heard this, the smile on her face suddenly became bitter, and she said resentfully: "What is the country and the city, sometimes, it is not a good thing to be born too well, if I had been ugly back then, I would not have been selected into this place where no one can be seen, and I would have sat here all day long and got moldy; If your mother had been ugly, she would not have run away at night and almost lost her life. However, speaking of which, among those of us, after all, your mother's life is better, she can escape and live her own life, while I am destined to be locked in this cage for the rest of my life, and I will never see the light of day. ”
After listening to her melancholy, Cai Wei couldn't help but feel related.
This aunt, in her most beautiful years, was locked up in this lonely deep palace and gradually grew old, just like the palace maid in Yuan Zhen's song "The Palace", a few years later, she can only rely on recalling the prosperity of the past to comfort the loneliness of this life!
Cai Wei was thinking about it, and suddenly heard Du Meiren's voice again.
"Look at me, patronizing and nagging, but forgot to ask if you have eaten?"
Cai Wei was a little embarrassed and said: "Not yet, I was originally selling things in the shop at home, but then I was passed into the palace, and then I came to my aunt, and I really didn't eat!" ”
Du Meiren said angrily: "You kid, you don't say it early when you're hungry, just go out with your aunt, don't you?" ”
After speaking, he hurriedly called someone over.
Du Meiren's position is low and he is not favored, so there are only four palace maids and a eunuch around him, and the meals he eats every day are not exquisite, only four ordinary dishes, a bowl of soup, and a bowl of white rice, which is not as good as eating at home on weekdays.
"Let's eat, it's just that today's meal will be delivered later, otherwise it will be cold by this time!"
Du Meiren sandwiched a chopstick bean sprout into Cai Wei's rice bowl and looked at her lovingly.
Cai Wei got up early and went back to the city, and she was busy all morning in the dim sum shop, and she was already so hungry that her chest was pressed against her back, although the food here was not very delicious, but it was better than being hungry.
So, Cai Wei buried her head in eating, and after a meal swept away, she remembered ashamedly that Du Meiren's regular meal was eaten by her, what did Du Meiren eat?
"Have you eaten enough?"
Du Meiren handed over a cup of tea at a moderate temperature, afraid that she would be hot, and took off the teacup with a handkerchief.
"Well, I'm full."
Cai Wei was a little embarrassed and said: "Look at me, I am so reckless, I ate my aunt's food, and I forgot that my aunt has not eaten yet!" ”
Du Meiren said softly: "If you don't have to eat one less meal, your aunt is not hungry, and it's the same if you eat again at night." ”
Cai Wei pursed her lips, and her good impression of this aunt increased a little, feeling that she was not as philistine and hypocritical as the rest of the Du family, she was gentle and gentle, like a mother, and always gave people a comfortable feeling!
