Leaving the Three Princes' Mansion, Chen Xi and I did not go back to the palace directly, but went straight to the palace. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 In the info carriage, Murong Chenxi looked at me and smiled without saying a word, and the warm smile made me a little obsessed.

I asked inexplicably, "See what I'm doing?" ”

He stared at me dotingly and smiled, "I've discovered something when I came out this time. ”

When I heard this, I was very curious, just now in Murong Chenyi's mansion, he didn't talk much, and I was expecting him to help speak, but I don't know what he found, thinking, I hurriedly asked, "Ao?" What was found? ”

"You, do you really want to hear it?" He pretended to be mysterious.

I nodded hurriedly, waiting for him to speak.

"I found that Bingxi is getting more and more accustomed to the life of the Northern Desert, in the Third Brother's Mansion, even if you face the third sister-in-law who meets for the first time, you can quickly get acquainted, instead of liking to stay alone in the house when you first came, you don't like to see the living, and you always have something on your mind in your heart."

He looked at me, fell silent, and said no more. There is a kind of interlaced love in the deep eyes. Facing him, I was stunned for a moment, what did he want to express? Why does looking at his eyes make me feel a taste of distress, but this distress makes me feel indescribable happiness, what a contradictory emotion.

After a moment of silence, I said quietly: "Lord Wang, do you like me like me now?" ”

I can't help but urge myself to open my mouth to confide in my inner voice, I admit that I have indeed changed a lot now and when I first married in Beimo, and I clearly understand in my heart that such changes are somewhat related to him. Before marrying him, what I never forgot in my heart was another man, after marrying him, gradually, the person who occupied my heart was no longer the original attachment, and I forgot the person who couldn't let go, Murong Chenxi, this seemingly ruthless and unsentimental man had replaced the person in my heart at some point, and it occupied my heart deeply.

He gently held my hand, and the warmth in his palm poured into my hand, which was very solid and reassuring.

He paused and said: "I don't want you to change for anyone, in this world, you are you, unique, no one can replace it, just be your true self, I just want you to be happy, nothing else." ”

Looking at his serious expression, my nose was sour at the moment, and I felt the urge to cry, not because I was sad, but because I was moved. I have fantasized countless times about meeting and loving the right person in my life, this man in front of me is the person I hated before, the person I avoided before, the person I hated and itched, I don't want to, this person I have thought about countless times actually appeared by my side, regardless of the feelings I ignored, Murong Chenxi who was good to me as always. No matter what purpose he married me in the first place, since I have him in my heart, why bother to deceive my feelings for him. Today, his words really touched me, if there is really a so-called fool in the world, why not have one more of me.

I held back my tears and said with emotion: "No matter what happens to him in the future, remember what you said today, at least I will keep it in my heart." ”

Chen Xi froze for a few seconds, and the next second he held me in his arms, tightly, for fear that I would run away. Maybe this is the happiness I look forward to, because I envy others and always exist by my side at the same time, as long as I pay attention, it is a matter of time before I find out.

The carriage walked slowly, and I snuggled in Murong Chenxi's arms, and there was an inexplicable warmth and peace of mind for a while, as if there was something, as long as he was by his side, my heart would be very steady. Before I knew it, I fell asleep, and it wasn't until he woke me up that I realized we had arrived at the palace.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Rongyue Palace, Concubine Rong's dormitory.

"Don't you really need me to accompany you?" Outside the palace gate, he couldn't rest assured and asked me again.

I smiled at him and said, "Don't treat me as a child, this matter is caused by me, I have to face it myself, if I bother you to help me in everything, over time, it will make me develop a habit of relying on you, which is not good." ”

"What? Is it bad to rely on me? His face was indifferent, and he was forbidden.

I didn't expect him to ask this question, and I didn't know how to answer his question. I looked at him, thought for a moment, and explained: "The prince has always been busy with everything, and he tries not to trouble you with what he can do, so as not to add trouble to the prince." I made such an excuse to answer him.

He tugged at the corners of his mouth, "I walk around the palace, and if there is anything, I will tell the slave to inform me." And he said nothing else.

I hummed and looked thoughtfully at his departing figure. Just now he asked me why it was not good to rely on him, not because I couldn't, but because I didn't dare. A man with such ability and courage as him, I think it should be an object that any woman can trust and rely on with peace of mind, however, it is precisely because he is so good that he is vaguely uneasy about dating. I'm afraid that once a long time passes, I will become a habit, if one day the habitual reliance is no longer there, I don't know what it will be like without such a habit? I don't want to think about it, I always feel that thinking too much is not necessarily a good thing.

People, sometimes it's okay to be confused, and being smart doesn't necessarily mean being good. Just like people occasionally lie, the effect is better than telling the truth, at least it will not hurt deeper and more painfully.

After standing outside for a while, he simply didn't want to think about it, so he stepped into Rongyue Palace, Concubine Rong's residence, with a hibiscus cake. I wondered if this tempting hibiscus pastry would be delivered smoothly today?

Although this Concubine Rong has only met a few times, she is not a good talker, and even if she comes, she can only act by looking at her eyes.

Then, as soon as I entered, I was led by the two palace maids in Concubine Rong's palace to see her, and I was a little puzzled in my heart, as if I knew that I was coming, and I didn't give notice in advance when I came, so I didn't understand what to do.

When she came to the house, Concubine Rong was sitting high drinking tea, and the palace maid beside her rubbed her shoulders.

After the palace maid finished speaking, I saluted Concubine Rong.

"Bingxi, please say hello to Concubine Rong."

When Concubine Rong saw that it was me, she immediately put the teacup aside and said busily: "It's all my own family, there is no one else here, so you don't have to see outside." He gestured to the side and motioned for me to sit down.

"Yes."

As a guest, I sat closer to her, so it was easier for me to speak.

"Bingxi has never come to the palace often, but today it is rare to come to Rongyue Palace, and this palace is very happy." She waved her hand and motioned for the palace maid next to her to step aside and chat with me.

Indeed, I entered the palace three times twice before for the sake of Concubine Jin's mother and Chenxi, and I only went to Jinyun Palace, and I didn't stay in the palace much, let alone go to other women's residences. Concubine Rong's rare and straightforward statement that I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Although he didn't directly ask for the meaning, the meaning was fully evident in the words.

"Don't hide it from Niangniang, Bingxi came to the palace today to see Niangniang, but there is something wrong with it." I got up and handed the hibiscus cake to the palace maid on the side and presented it to Concubine Rong, "Yesterday I met a girl wandering on the street, and saw that she was being bullied, out of pity and liking, I took her back to the palace regardless of the other people present. It was unintentional, and finally caused trouble to the mother, Bingxi apologized, I heard that you love to eat hibiscus cakes, only the three princesses in the house can make the kind of taste you like, so I immediately went to the three princes' mansion to ask the three princesses to help, and specially brought the finished pastries, and hoped that the mother would not be held accountable for the unintentional fault of Bingxi. ”

I personally brought the hibiscus cake, and I just said so much, rushing to this sincerity, no matter how many people have opinions and ideas in their hearts, they should be eliminated, presumably Concubine Rong will not be embarrassed by me. At this point, my heart was a little more relaxed, and I was less worried than when I came. I waited blankly for Concubine Rong's reaction.

Concubine Rong didn't immediately go to see the hibiscus cake presented by the palace maid, pointed to the side, and told the palace maid to put it down. She turned to look at me, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and despite the smile on her face, it made me feel unbreathably nervous. You must know that the person who dares to move the palace is not a joke, and this person is still Concubine Rong, the most favored person in this palace.

She said with a smile: "At first, the palace wondered who dared to take Jinqiu away, and the palace maid who came back couldn't ask why she came, and after thinking about it, she couldn't think of a result, if it wasn't for Bingxi today, you entered the palace to explain to me, and the palace really couldn't think that this person was you." ”

The word "you" shocked me, and I hurriedly said: "Bingxi knows that he is acting recklessly, and I hope that Niangniang is not strange." I thought, what did she mean by specifying it?

Seeing that I was slightly tight, Concubine Rong waved her hand, looking at ease, and said in a relaxed tone: "It's okay, but this palace wants to know what the fourth princess thinks of Jinqiu?" ”

Concubine Rong didn't say anything else, let alone mention that Jinqiu dropped the hibiscus cake on the ground, and asked me what I thought of this girl, I don't know what she meant?

"Jinqiu, this girl is very likable."

A simple sentence sums up my impression of Jinqiu, although it is too pale to describe a person in a few words, but sometimes a simple sentence is more than a thousand words, especially on an occasion like today, the most not.

"It seems that the fourth princess is satisfied with this girl?" She asked.

I nodded lightly and replied, "Since Niangniang has understood, Bingxi will not beat around the bush, I just hope that Niangniang can cut love." "I sighed, in the past in the Chu State, it was easy to go to other concubines in the palace to ask for a person, but now, this time is different from the past, the Northern Desert is different in the Chu State, and you have to do things according to the rules everywhere. If you don't pay attention to one less, you may all be leading to the upper body. But the hibiscus cake has been sent out, so she is a smart person, why should I bother to beat the corner, wouldn't it be better to be straightforward.

Concubine Rong was silent for a few seconds, and continued: "Jinqiu, this girl is also diligent in her work on weekdays, she can please the likes of the four princesses, which is a blessing from cultivation, as for the hibiscus cake, she should be punished according to the rules of the palace for doing something wrong, since the palace maid that the four princesses fancie, if it is replaced by someone else, it is another matter." The fourth princess spoke, if the palace did not agree, wouldn't it be said that it would be unreasonable. Maybe this palace sells the favor of the four princesses today, but it's 。。。。。。。 Concubine Rong suddenly stopped and looked at me silently.

As soon as I heard her agree, I was immediately happy, but her pause made me uneasy, I always felt that things that were too easy might not be good, maybe I thought too much, maybe Concubine Rong gave me such a feeling, the calmer she was, the more she smiled, I felt that it was not like that.

"Bingxi is dull, please let Concubine Niangniang make it clear?" I asked.

Concubine Rong had a smile on her face, that smile was a little incompatible with her arrogance in front of other concubines, as if she was deliberately kind, she said: "Actually, it's nothing, but the people who were taken away from my Rongyue Palace were not taken away for nothing. She is still smiling, she can smile while making people remember people's feelings, and she said it so naturally, there are not many people in this world who can do it, and today can be regarded as having seen it.

"Bingxi would like to thank Concubine Rong in advance."

It seems that eating people is soft-mouthed and short-handed, which is not false at all. I have neither, but I am even more than both. As the saying goes, other people's favors are not white-collar workers, it seems that Concubine Rong's favor is finally owed, as for whether it is still a matter of the future, now I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, this matter has finally come to an end.

As soon as I finished speaking, when Concubine Rong was about to speak, a palace maid came in to tell me something.

"What's the matter?"

Concubine Rong asked lightly.

"Back to Niangniang, the third prince asks to see me." The palace maid knelt on the ground and replied in a low voice.

"Oh?" Concubine Rong said in a deep voice, the smile on her face gradually disappearing. The son came to see his mother, it shouldn't be this expression, it's strange.

However, he just left Murong Chenyi's mansion, what was he doing in the palace at this time? When he was in the palace, I didn't hear that he was going to enter the palace. I was momentarily puzzled.

"Did he say anything?" Concubine Rong asked.

"The third prince didn't say anything, but just asked the slave maid if someone from the Three Princes' Mansion came over." The palace maid replied

"Go and invite the third prince to come in!" Concubine Rong glanced at me and said to the palace maid.

Concubine Rong and the palace maid answered each other, and they understood more or less from it, and it seemed that Murong Chen was not at ease, so he specially entered the palace.

"The third prince has something to do with his mother, so Bingxi won't bother, he will retire first, and come to visit Concubine Rong another day." I said, I always feel that it is not suitable for me to stay here as an outsider, it is better to leave first, besides, Murong Chenxi is still waiting for me outside, and there are some times when I stay in Rongyue, I don't know if he is in a hurry.

Concubine Rong saw that I was leaving, but she just thanked me and didn't keep me.

When he got out of the house, he just greeted Murong Chenyi at the door.

I hurriedly saluted him, "Why is the third prince here?" I asked, knowing that he had come here for my own purposes, and I deliberately pretended not to know.

When he saw that I had come to Rongyue Palace alone, and there was no one else around him, he asked inexplicably, "What?" Aren't the four brothers together? ”

"It was my idea, so that he didn't have to accompany me, after all, it was my sake, and I didn't want to trouble him with anything." I say these words completely out of "how?" Mother didn't say anything, did she? He asked me how it turned out, and he didn't ask anything else.

"There is the third prince of Lao who is concerned, Concubine Rong is reasonable and reasonable, and she is a reasonable person, so she will naturally not be embarrassed by Bingxi." I'll reply to him.

Murong Chen's face was also gentle, as if he was muttering to himself: "That's good." ”

"The prince came to find Concubine Rong, is there something wrong?" I asked.

He said, "It's nothing, it's just passing by and having a look." ”

Just passing through? Is it that simple to see? I think that since he deliberately did not break it, I will not say it, but this concern should be kept in mind. People in a foreign land, there are still friends, even if they are alone, they do not feel lonely and lonely. At least there is one person who can stand up in times of crisis, so although I don't say it, my heart is still full of gratitude.

"Concubine Rong Niangniang is waiting in the house, just now I patronized and chatted with Niangniang, and I don't know if the prince should wait in a hurry, Bingxi will not bother much, and retire first." I said, saying goodbye to Murong Chen.

"Go ahead, don't let the fourth brother wait for a long time." He waved his hand at me, and said quietly, and went into the house by himself.
