Chapter 18: Fear and Cold, Only Hate (18)

As soon as the sky was brightened, Shun Yu got up, Fang Xiaoqin knew that he was chuang, but she pretended not to know, and it wasn't until he left that she got up and watched his body gradually disappear on the other side of the mountain.

Chen Rui stood at the fence and looked at her quietly, "I didn't expect you to be so affectionate to the prince." ”

Fang Xiaoqin was still standing, looking into the distance, without looking back, she could only let out a silent sigh.

"Oh, what is the use of deep love, if he loves me, I will rejoice. But no, I'm just his princess, and I know that he is good for me and locks me here. In fact, it's also very good here, the days are ordinary, but without him, what's the use of a good life? ”

I thought she was a bold woman, but I didn't expect her to have a sensual side. Chen Rui pursed his thin lips and wanted to say comfort, but found that his identity was not allowed.

"The prince will know." That's all he could do in response to her.

Fang Xiaoqin narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling the taste of the rising sun, "But his kindness to me makes me feel pressure." He won't know that I want his love, not his good. Maybe love is numb to him, but for me, it's something out of reach. ”

Seeing her brows frowning tightly, in the shallow sunlight, what a beautiful picture, he imprinted this moment deeply in his mind, swallowed this emotion hard, and hid it.

"Princess. Don't be pessimistic, at least the prince has quietly changed for you. Do you know why Ling Zheng is so popular, because the prince is better to you than he imagined, and it can even be said that the prince is doing so many things now for you, and there are unborn children, but this child is best a boy. ”

Boy? Fang Xiaoqin's heart trembled.

"Do you still have such thoughts? You want to use my child as a weapon against the emperor. ”

Fang Xiaoqin's mood fluctuated significantly.

Seeing this, Chen Rui hurriedly knelt on the ground, and he clenched his fists and explained: "Princess, my subordinates don't have this mind. Ling Zheng and I once persuaded the prince, but he was unmoved. He doesn't want his child to be born with so much burden, why did he choose here, it's because he wants you to have a fresh start with your child. ”

Is that really the case? Fang Xiaoqin put a question mark in her mind?

It's just that she hasn't known him, she can't give up for him, even if she can't go out at the moment, she can't carry out the plan, but she has to hold back, as long as there is a chance, she will definitely attack.

"Really?" A trace of doubt flashed in Fang Xiaoqin's beautiful eyes.

"How dare your subordinates lie?" Chen Rui said sincerely.

"I know, let it be, I only have one wish now, and that is to hope that everything is safe."

Fang Xiaoqin raised the corners of her lips slightly, wanting to get rid of the worries in her heart, but she was powerless.

"Princess, it's a little cold in the morning, you better go back to the house, we can have dinner later."

Fang Xiaoqin nodded lightly, still looking at the other part of the mountain, everything here was unfamiliar, she only knew Ling Zheng's hometown, and she had no way of knowing the place.

"By the way, how long will he be gone, Chen Rui."

"About half a month, maybe soon, maybe a little later." Chen Rui responded.

Every day, when evening came, she asked to go down the mountain, and when she reached the foot of the mountain, she did nothing. Just stood at the entrance of the village and looked up.

"Madam, have you seen that Xianggong has come back again?" Aunt Ling, who lives at the entrance of the village, asked.

Fang Xiaoqin nodded slightly, and replied with a smile: "Yes, what must be done every day, he works hard outside alone, I am always a little uneasy." ”

Was she worried about him? Fang Xiaoqin secretly asked herself in her heart that Shunyu was no longer worthy of her worries. I don't know how Mo Li is these days? How about Lord Yun and Fang Xiaoqin? Whether the Fang family is going well.

"Actually, madam, a man is like this, he wants to support his family, in fact, we can see that the man in your family is a person who does great things, you have to worry too much, otherwise he will always remember the family, and things will not go well."

"Yes, sister-in-law, Aunt Li is right. Brother Wang said that he would come back in half a month, in fact, you go up and down every day, I am really worried that you are tired. ”

Chen Rui looked at the hope in her eyes, his heart was a little tight, but he still acted fine.

Fang Xiaoqin glanced at Chen Rui secretly, and saw that his expression was a little strange, although he didn't know why?

"By the way, Chen Rui, can you buy some sour plums for me? For a while, the mouth was tasteless and a little difficult to swallow. ”

"Okay, I'll go. You stay here first, Aunt Li, you help me take care of my sister-in-law. ”

Chen Rui said with a smile, he glanced at Fang Xiaoqin secretly, and saw that her expression was bland, this was the first time she had broken up with him, he always felt that it was inappropriate, but he couldn't refuse.

Aunt Ling moved a stool out of the house, "Madam, you're pregnant, aren't you?" It's hard to have a baby, and it's so inconvenient for you to live in the mountains. ”

While talking, Aunt Li went into the house again and took out some snacks.

"We're in the middle of nowhere, and we don't have anything to eat, so here are some dried bayberries that we dry at home."

"Aunt Ling, you are too polite. Actually, I like it here, but I'm not used to living here, why do you live here? ”

Fang Xiaoqin asked softly, of course she couldn't let the eldest lady feel that she was intentionally inquiring about the news.

Aunt Li pulled a stool, she sighed helplessly, "Our people offended the imperial court hundreds of years ago, and were sent to such a no-man's land, leaving us to fend for ourselves, and then our ancestors actually survived, so we were able to survive." Our Ling family is a foreign clan, the Chen family originally lived here, and our Ling family gradually integrated into the life of the Chen family by relying on its own strength. Until a hundred years ago, something happened to us that almost wiped out our race, because outsiders ...... So we're very strict here, mainly for that reason. Everyone knows that our people have a great fortune in them. ”

Fang Xiaoqin's eyes couldn't help but widen, and she looked at Aunt Ling in disbelief, thinking in her heart: There is a huge wealth here, could it be that there is a treasure hidden here.

She just smiled gently, "Hehe, only greedy people won't let go of here." By the way, which continent do we belong to here? ”

She finally got the conversation to that, and she desperately wanted to know where she lived.

"This is Jingzhou, ma'am."

"What ......" Fang Xiaoqin was almost frightened and jumped, how could it be Jingzhou? She was originally outside the capital, and Shunyu lied?

"Girl, haven't you heard of it?" Aunt Ling looked at Fang Xiaoqin's reaction and secretly felt that something was wrong.

In order to dispel Aunt Ling's doubts, Fang Xiaoqin narrowed her eyes and smirked, "I just don't know that this is Jingzhou, and I rarely care about these things." By the way, how far is the Mysterious Valley in Jingzhou from here, a friend of mine once wanted to take me to the Mysterious Valley, but I didn't make it in the end. ”

Aunt Ling pursed her lips slightly and looked at Fang Xiaoqin with a smile.

"Madame, it seems that you are ignorant of the world, this place is under the jurisdiction of the Mysterious Valley, although we do not belong to the Mysterious Valley, but we are protected by the Mysterious Valley, and our people have to dedicate some rations to the Mysterious Valley every year. Aren't we reaping the harvest now? It won't be long before we send these rations directly to Mystic Valley. ”

I see? It was impossible for Shun Yu not to know this, Fang Xiaoqin wanted to inquire again, and saw Chen Rui running towards her. She stopped directly, "Auntie, my friend is back." Thank you for your hospitality, if you change ** to the halfway up the mountain, remember to find me. ”

Chen Rui said goodbye to Aunt Ling very politely.

Fang Xiaoqin still felt that they would always be mysterious to her, she didn't say a word on the way back, until she reached the halfway point of the mountain, she couldn't help but ask, "This place belongs to the jurisdiction of the Mysterious Valley, do you know?" ”

Chen Rui's eyes were as clear as the blue sky, his face sank, and there was no trace of a smile on his handsome face.

He thought about it for a long time before he began to answer: "I have lived here since I was a child, and I must know it." This is not under the jurisdiction of the Mystic Valley, but it is protected by the Mystic Valley. Because this is the scope of Lord Yun, the prince doesn't want you to have other ideas, so he hasn't asked me to explain. ”

She snorted coldly in confusion, and immediately blurted out, "He still wants to hide from me, why did he do this, what can I think." What about the protection of King Yun here? Will he be here? I'm a different look now, will he recognize me? ”

Her nose trembled, along with her voice.

"The prince's concerns are not these, the prince is worried that if the prince recognizes us, that will be our disaster. Ling Zheng is so inconvenient to appear, but in order to be able to take better care of you, the two of us take turns, and our move can be regarded as a risk. ”

"He's already wearing a mask, is he still worried about being recognized? What a joke. She couldn't help but let out a mocking sound, she felt a little unsteady in her heart, and she began to be angry.

Shunyu, you arranged all this quietly, very well. I Xiaoqin thought that you would sincerely change your ways, but I didn't expect that all this was just your conspiracy.

"Princess, you are angry, the prince just doesn't want you to have an accident with the baby, as long as you are safe, even if you are sent to the jurisdiction of the mysterious valley, the prince is willing to take this risk."

Chen Rui was afraid that he would not be able to convince Fang Xiaoqin, so he knelt directly on the ground and explained: "The princess is all about the baby. ”

Everything is focused on the baby, so he is simply using the baby as a bargaining chip, Fang Xiaoqin laughed at Shunyu even more in her heart. Love and hate coexist, and she can't ease it a little, but her hatred won't be forgotten.
